Objective:To explore the impact of "basic nursing" course with signature pedagogy on undergraduate nursing students' critical thinking, professional identity, and professionalism.Methods:A signature pedagogy method for the "basic nursing" course was established using narrative as a theoretical lesson and scenario-simulation as a laboratory lesson. Ninety sophomore nursing students in the 2020 undergraduate nursing program were selected as the participants of a controlled pre-post study. The students were evaluated using the Critical Thinking Inventory, the Professional Identity Questionnaire, and the Professionalism Inventory before and after the course. Semi-structured interviews were conducted at the end of the course to gain an in-depth understanding of their learning experience. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 26.0 and Nvivo 11.0 Colaizzi's seven-step method was used for analysis of qualitative research.Results:A total of 87 nursing students participated in the course and 83 were included in the quantitative analysis. The total scores of critical thinking skills (286.83±17.44), professional identity (58.95±6.43), and professionalism (67.08±11.21) were significantly higher after the course than before the course ( P<0.001). Qualitative study identified the four themes of promoting effective learning, developing critical thinking and empathy, building professional attitudes, and expecting curriculum optimization. Conclusions:The "basic nursing" course based on signature pedagogy for undergraduate nursing students helps to enhance their critical thinking, foster a sense of professional identity, and develop professionalism.

Decentralized clinical trials(DCT)are bringing new changes to clinical trials,the core concept of"patient-centered"must be adhered,and the safety and rights of research participants must be adequately safeguarded.Although DCTs have similarities with traditional clinical trials,they are not suitable for all clinical trials,and are more suitable for oral administration,stable condition of study participants,and longer duration of treatment in clinical trials.DCT,elements must be selected based on the characteristics of clinical trials,and strike a balance between improving the sense of gain,safety,and rights and dignity of research participants,as well as the quality of data collected.Currently,DCT in China face many challenges.To actively promote DCTs in China,regulatory regulations and guiding principles should be improved.Based on patient-centered design principles,the first discussion requires real-time online communication.Researchers should provide more clinical trial services,improve risk control and accessibility of medical assistance,use third-party convenient payments,ensure fair recruitment of research participants,consider compliance,validate digital health technology,remote monitoring and electronic informed consent compliance,ensure the security of data collection,transmission,and analysis,as well as strengthen multi-party training.Ethical review is one of the important means to protect the safety and rights of research participants.Ethics committees should focus on appropriate DCTs elements that are patient-centered,compliance and effectiveness of electronic informed consent,processing and reporting of security information,privacy protection of data collection,compliance of remote monitoring,family health follow-up,management of biological samples and experimental medical products,and training programs.The author believed that the complementarity and combination with traditional clinical trials will make DCTs elements implemented more easily and smoothly.By leveraging the power of scientific and technological advances,DCTs will boost the speed of China's drug and medical device research and development,enhance international competitiveness,and benefit more patients.

Objective:By calculating the efficiency of the scientific research laboratory, which reflects the level of the scientific research input and output capacity, provide reference for the evaluation and decision-making of its scientific research sustainable development capacity.Methods:20 scientific research laboratories in a hospital were selected as the research subjects, annual input data were used as the input index. Weighted quantitative scores of the performance of each laboratory in research capacity and contribution, research team construction, discipline development and personnel training, operation management, papers and monographs, patents and transfer, awards, graduate-student training, standards and norms, and academic conferences. All these factors mentioned above were used as output indicators. Then Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) are used to evaluate the scientific efficiency of each laboratory.Results:The performance of the laboratory is weak in the aspects of patent transfer, awards, standardization. The technical efficiency of laboratory 20 is the lowest, and the scale efficiency of laboratory 12 is the lowest.Conclusions:Scientific Research Laboratories should enhance the effectiveness through input adjustment and output enhancement, meanwhile each laboratory should pay attention to the transformation of scientific achievements and also the optimization of construction system.

The development of new biomarkers or therapeutic targets for cancer immunotherapies requires deep under-standing of T cells. To date, the complete landscape and systematic characterization of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in T cells in cancer immunity are lacking. Here, by systematically analyzing full-length single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data of more than 20,000 libraries of T cells across three cancer types, we provided the first comprehensive catalog and the functional repertoires of lncRNAs in human T cells. Specifically, we developed a custom pipeline for de novo transcriptome assembly and obtained a novel lncRNA catalog containing 9433 genes. This increased the number of current human lncRNA catalog by 16％and nearly doubled the number of lncRNAs expressed in T cells. We found that a portion of expressed genes in single T cells were lncRNAs which had been overlooked by the majority of previous studies. Based on metacell maps constructed by the MetaCell algorithm that partitions scRNA-seq datasets into disjointed and homogenous groups of cells (metacells), 154 signature lncRNA genes were identified. They were associated with effector, exhausted, and regulatory T cell states. Moreover, 84 of them were functionally annotated based on the co-expression networks, indicating that lncRNAs might broadly participate in the regulation of T cell functions. Our findings provide a new point of view and resource for investigating the mechanisms of T cell regulation in cancer immunity as well as for novel cancer-immune biomarker development and cancer immunotherapies.

Objective:To explore the application value of FilmArray detection in children with acute lower respiratory tract infection and conduct economics analysis.Methods:From December 1, 2016 to November 30, 2017, 1 380 patients were enrolled in our study.Some children(FilmArray group) were tested for respiratory pathogens with FilmArray, while others (control group) were tested by 7-box antigen test of respiratory virus, gold colloid test of influenza and mycoplasma antibody.Those with underlying diseases were excluded.A total of 160 cases in the FilmArray group and 160 cases in the control group were obtained with tendency score matching method.The physical examination of pathogens, clinical indicators, usage of anti-infective drugs and hospitalization related costs were compared.Results:The positive rate of FilmArray test was significantly higher than that in control group (86.88% vs. 45.91%). The most common pathogens detected by FilmArray were adenovirus(39 cases), rhinovirus(34 cases), and parainfluenza virus(30 cases). In the FilmArray group, nine cases were positive for botulinum pertussis, accounting for 5.6% of the total.The hospitalization time of FilmArray group was shorter than that in control group [(8.89±6.23 days vs.(11.51±14.43)days]. In FilmArray group, the antibiotics were used for a shorter time, and 18 children did not use antibiotics during hospitalization.Compared with the control group, the hospitalization cost had no significant difference in the FilmArray group, but the antibiotic cost was less, as well as hospitalization time was shorter.The average hospitalization cost saved by using the FilmArray test was nearly 2 000 yuan per person. Conclusion:The application of FilmArray detection in children with acute lower respiratory tract infection can quickly and accurately identify a various infections of virus, bacteria and atypical pathogen, which guides using anti-infective drugs more reasonably.The application of FilmArray detection shortens the average hospitalization days of children, increases the utilization efficiency of medical resources, and reduces the medical cost and indirect economic loss of children’s families, which has certain economics significance.

Granulomatous disorder is a group of chronic proliferative inflammatory diseases.Both infectious and noninfectious factors can lead to granuloma formation.Its diagnosis and treatment should be dependent on clinical manifestations and pathological results of patients.The existence of systematic diseases and immune system abnormalities is the key factor in determining final therapy in this condition.It is a rare clinical case of granulomatosis with simple invasion of one single peripheral nerve,which is challenging in daily clinical work.Here we present a case of granulomatous inflammation involving the right tibial nerve only,and analyze the difficulties and key points in the diagnosis and treatment of these patients with literature review.
