Public hospitals are pivotal in national health security system.For these hospital,traditional recruitment and employment practices fall short of meeting the multidimensional personnel demands in medical treatment,education,scientific re-search,prevention,and rehabilitation.The Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University,a century-old public terti-ary hospital with a diverse personnel composition,has adapted its employment model over nearly 30 years of practice and explora-tion.In response to the hospital's expanding business and strategic planning,it has developed a diverse employment mechanism suitable for talents of all levels.This paper systematically outlines various current employment methods and analyzes the applica-tion and subsequent management of this flexible employment mechanism,expounding its advantages and disadvantages.

Pre-job training for new staff is vital in modern hospital management and talent team construction.This study conducted a survey with a questionnaire and interviews on the satisfaction and effectiveness of pre-job training for 274 new em-ployees of the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from 2020 to 2022.The results showed over 90%of the new employees were satisfied with course quality and organization and training organization,with the highest scores for hospital history and legal education and legal confidentiality education courses.Pre-job training significantly boosted employee enthusi-asm,organizational identity,and stress regulation capabilities.At the same time,there is room from optimization in aspects such as teaching methods,some course settings,and training schedule arrangements.

BACKGROUND:
An increasing number of publications are drawing attention to the associations between six common polymorphisms in HOX transcript anti-sense RNA (HOTAIR) and the risk of cancers, while these results have been controversial and inconsistent. We conducted an up-to-date meta-analysis to pool eligible studies and to further explore the possible relationships between HOTAIR polymorphisms (rs920778, rs7958904, rs12826786, 4,759,314, rs874945, and rs1899663) and cancer risk.
METHODS:
A systematic retrieval was conducted up to 1 July 2017 in the PubMed, Web of Science, and CNKI databases. Eighteen eligible publications including 45 case-control studies with 58,601subjects were enrolled for assessing the associations between the 6 polymorphisms in HOTAIR and cancer risk. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were analyzed to reveal the polymorphisms and susceptibility to cancer. All the statistical analyses were performed using STATA 11.0 software.
RESULTS:
The pooled analyses detected significant associations between the rs920778 polymorphism and increased susceptibility to cancer in recessive, dominant, allelic, homozygous, and heterozygous models. For the rs7958904 polymorphism, we obtained the polymorphism significantly decreased susceptibility to overall cancer risk among five genetic models rather than recessive and homozygous models. For the rs12826786 polymorphism, we identified it significantly increased susceptibility to cancer risk in all genetic models rather than heterozygous models. However, no significant association was found between the rs1899663, rs874945, and rs4759314 polymorphisms and susceptibility of cancer.
CONCLUSION
These findings of the meta-analysis suggest that HOTAIR polymorphism may contribute to cancer susceptibility.
