Purpose:
This study aimed to evaluate nursing students’ understanding of the prevention of COVID-19, as well as their anxiety towards the disease and their perception of their professional identity in the wake of the pandemic, in Zhengzhou, China.
Methods:
A cross-sectional study was designed to investigate 474 nursing students by cluster sampling using a stratified questionnaire from February 15 to March 31, 2020. Multiple linear regression was used to identify the factors affecting professional identity. Binary and multiple logistic regression were used to identify the factors affecting anxiety.
Results:
Responders with a high level of understanding of COVID-19 and frequent use of behavioral strategies for its prevention comprised 93.2% and 30.0% of the cohort, respectively. Professional identity was significantly associated with gender and anxiety (p < .050). The prevalence of anxiety among nursing students was 12.4%. Male (odds ratio [OR] = 2.39; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.26~4.52), sophomores (OR = 5.30; 95% CI = 1.61~7.45), and infrequent use of prevention measures (OR = 3.49; 95% CI = 1.16~5.19) had a significant effect on anxiety.
Conclusion
Anxiety during the COVID-19 epidemic gives an adverse effect on the professional identity of nursing in students. Nursing education institutions need to provide psychological counseling services for nursing students, in addition to improving their teaching of COVID-19 prevention strategies.

Objective:To observe the changes of macular visual function after myopic foveoschisis (MF) and pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) combined with internal limiting membrane peeling and air filling.Methods:A single-center, retrospective study. From October 2018 to October 2019, 29 MF inpatients (32 eyes) in Tianjin Eye Hospital were included in this study. There were 3 males (4 eyes) and 26 females (28 eyes). The age was 63.00±3.45 years old. Equivalent spherical lens degree was -14.16±2.54 D, and axial length was 29.14±1.04 mm. Among them, 3 patients (3 eyes) had lamellar macular holes. All eyes underwent standard pars plana three-channel 25G PPV combined with internal limiting membrane peeling and air filling. Before surgery and at 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery, macular microperimetry was performed with a macular integrity assessment instrument, and the mean retinal sensitivitie (MS) within 10° of the macula, fovea 2° and 4° fixation rates (P1, P2), 63% and 95% bivariate contour ellipse area (BCEA) were recorded. The comparison of MS, P1, P2, 63%BCEA and 95%BCEA at different times before and after surgery was performed by paired t test; the comparison of fixation stability rate was performed by χ 2 test. Results:Compared with before surgery, there were significant differences in the improvement of MS in affected eyes at 1, 3 and 6 months after surgery ( t=-2.208, -3.435,-4.919; P=0.038, 0.002, 0.000). In the pairwise comparison at different times after surgery, only 6 months after surgery and 1 month after surgery were significantly different ( P=0.036). Compared with the preoperative P1, P2, 63%BCEA and 95%BCEA, the P1 and P2 of the eyes gradually increased after surgery, while the 63%BCEA and 95%BCEA gradually decreased, however, the difference was not statistically significant (P1: t=-1.595,-1.698,-1.966; P=0.125, 0.104, 0.062. P2: t=-1.622,-1.654,-1.707; P=0.119, 0.112, 0.102. 63%BCEA: t=1.410, 1.409, 1.553; P=0.172, 0.173, 0.135. 95%BCEA: t=1.412, 1.408, 1.564; P=0.172, 0.173, 0.132). Six months after surgery, all the eyes underwent anatomical repositioning of the macular area, and no serious complications such as full-thickness macular hole and macular hole retinal detachment were found. Conclusions:PPV with internal limiting membrane peeling and air filling is an effective and safe method for MF, and the macular function improved significantly within 6 months postoperatively.

Objective:To explore the correlation between myocardial damage and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), red blood cell distribution width (RDW), and myocardial enzyme spectrum in children with severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia.Methods:Sixty children with severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia and myocardial damage admitted to Jining Medical University from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected as the observation group, and 60 children with severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia admitted during the same period were selected as the control group. The differences in clinical data and imaging features between the two groups were compared. Pearson correlation analysis was used for correlation analysis; The logistic regression method was applied to analyze the influencing factors of myocardial damage in children with severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia. The value of VEGF and RDW in predicting myocardial damage in children with severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia was analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.Results:The levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), VEGF, RDW, creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB), creatine kinase (CK), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05), and the duration of fever, application of macrolide drugs, and glucocorticoid application time were significantly longer than those in the control group (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in pulmonary imaging characteristics between the observation group and the control group (all P>0.05). The VEGF and RDW in the observation group were positively correlated with CK-MB and cTnI (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that duration of fever, VEGF, RDW, and duration of macrolide drug use were the influencing factors for myocardial damage in children with severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (all P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of VEGF combined with RDW in predicting myocardial damage in children with severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia was 0.899, significantly higher than that predicted by VEGF and RDW alone (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The serum VEGF and RDW levels in children with severe mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia accompanied by myocardial damage are elevated and positively correlated with myocardial enzyme spectrum indicators, which has certain application value in predicting myocardial damage.

Objective To investigate the value of abdominal aortic balloon combined homeostasis in the cesarean section with invasive completeplacenta previa. Methods Data of 47 cases of completeplacenta previa with placenta accrete from March 2007 to August 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. Seventeen cases (study group) were treated with abdominal aortic balloon combined homeostasis before cesarean, and 30 cases (control group) did not receive balloon occlusion. The operation time, intra-operative blood loss, intra-operative blood transfusion volume, disseminated or diffuse intravascular coagulation (DIC) rate, hysterectomy rate and post operative complications, time of postoperative hospital stay were compared. Also, the blood coagulation parameters 24 h after operation, including activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (FIB), D-dimer werecompared between the two groups. Results Significant difference was observed in the blood loss [1 000 (800—2 000) ml vs. 2 200 (1 000-4 100) ml, Z=-2.272, P=0.023] and blood transfusion volume [400 (0-2 450) ml vs. 2 460 (200-4 460) ml, Z =- 2.02, P = 0.03], 16 cases of the study group still bled after releasing the balloon.Fifteen cases of them received uterine artery ligation. Bleeding stopped after uterine balloon compression in 1 case. Eleven cases of the 15 cases received uterine balloon compression at the same time. One case of 28 weeks gestation underwent subtotal hysterectomy due to hemorrhagic shock combined with DIC caused by placenta accretion of the bladder. While in control group, 7 cases underwent total hysterectomy because hemorrhagic shock combined with DIC and 3 cases underwent subtotal hysterectomy due to heavy bleeding, and there was statistical significance between two groups [1/17 vs. 33.3%(10/30), P=0.039]. Conclusions Temporary balloon occlusion of the abdominal aorta combined with conventional homeostasis can reduce blood loss, blood transfusion and hysterectomy rate in the cesarean section complicated with invasive complete placenta previa.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between gluten-free diet and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods:Data were obtained from large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and genetic loci that are independent of gluten-free diet and RA of people of Europe2 were selected as instrumental variables. The gluten-free diet GWAS data included 64 949 individuals and 9 851 867 controls. Data were obtained from GWAS of 58 284 RA patients and 13 108 512 controls. The inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR Egger, weighted median method and weighted model were used to conduct two sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Cochran Q test and mendelian randomness pleiotropy residual sum and outlier (MR-PRESSO) were used to assess SNP heterogeneity. Applying the MR Egger intercept to test the level pleiotropy of SNP. The sensitivity analysis of the "leave one method" that evaluates whether MR studies were influenced by a single SNP. Results:After matching GFD and RA data, three SNPs were included as instrumental variables in the study. IVW showed that GFD could significantly reduce the risk of RA ( β=-60.83, s x=3.82, P<0.001). The weighted median method and weighted pattern also showed that the gluten free diet could reduce the risk of RA ( β=-57.97, s x=4.41, P<0.001; β=-55.81, s x=5.10, P=0.008). Sensitivity analysis of the correlation between GFD and RA showed that there might be heterogeneity between SNPs (Cochran Q test, Q=12.80, P=0.002). The MR-PRESSO results showed that no abnormal SNP was detected ( P=0.174). The forest map showed that SNPs was closely related to GFD and RA stability. The method comparison chart showed that the results of multiple testing methods were basically consistent. The funnel plot showed that SNPs were basically symmetrical, indicating that there was no pleiotropy in MR analysis. The MR Egger intercept test showed no horizontal pleiotropy in MR analysis (intercept value was-0.24, P=0.174). The sensitivity analysis of the "leave one method" is suggested that no single SNP had a significant impact on the overall results. Conclusion:Gluten free diet is related to the risk reduction of RA.
