Objective:To analyze differences on characteristics of HIV/AIDS knowledge, beliefs and behavior among female college students who reported having sex in Zhejiang Province between 2018 and 2020, and provide reference for HIV/AIDS prevention and control among female college students.Methods:Cross-sectional surveys were conducted in October-November 2018 and November-December 2020 among female college students in 13 universities in 11 cities in Zhejiang Province, and female college students who self-reported having sexual intercourse in the past year were included as study subjects, with sample size estimates of 5 265 and 9 466 for the two surveys, respectively. The factors related to the change of relevant characteristics of the two survey subjects were analyzed. The χ2 test was used for univariate analysis and logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis.Statistical analyses were performed with SPSS 23.0 software. Results:Of the 17 354 and 20 675 female college students surveyed in 2018 and 2020, respectively, the proportion who self-reported having had sex in the past year was 6.56% (1 139/17 354) and 4.19% (866/20 675). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with female college students in 2018, the students who have sexual behaviour, receiving health education class by their university in the past year (a OR=1.57, 95% CI:1.29-1.91), receiving HIV testing promotion by the university in the past year (a OR=2.59,95% CI:2.13-3.14), receiving self-assessment of HIV risk by the university in the past year (a OR=2.97,95% CI:2.43-3.65), high self-efficacyfor condom use (a OR=2.00, 95% CI:1.66-2.41), receiving voluntary counseling and HIV testing (VCT) (a OR=1.81,95% CI: 1.41-2.87), perceived risk of HIV infection (a OR=2.44, 95% CI:1.32-4.54), using condoms whenever having casual sexual behaviour in the past year (a OR=3.35,95% CI:1.66-6.77) were significantly higher in 2020. Conclusions:Compared with female college students in 2018, the proportion of female college students who self-reported sexual activity decreased slightly in 2020, and the proportion of receiving HIV/AIDS lectures or health education classes, the proportion of self-rated at risk of HIV infection, the proportion of receiving VCT, the proportion of using condoms with very high confidence in self-efficacy and condom use had an increased.

Objective:To explore the latent profiles of work withdrawal behaviors of junior nurses and their relationship with workplace social capital.Methods:Using the convenience sampling method, from July to August 2023, 348 junior nurses from five Class Ⅲ and seven ClassⅡ public hospitals in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region were selected as the research objects. They were investigated with a General Information Questionnaire, the Work Withdrawal Behavior Scale, and the Workplace Social Capital Scale. Latent profile analysis was used to explore the categories of work withdrawal behaviors of junior nurses, and the differences in workplace social capital levels among junior nurses of different categories were compared.Results:A total of 348 questionnaires were recovered online in this survey, and 342 questionnaires were valid, with a valid rate of 98.3%. The work withdrawal behaviors of 342 junior nurses could be divided into three latent profiles, including 246 junior nurses (71.9%) in the low psychological-low behavioral withdrawal group, 81 junior nurses (23.7%) in the high psychological-low behavioral withdrawal group, and 15 junior nurses (4.4%) in the high psychological-high behavioral withdrawal group. The results of the unordered multinomial Logistic regression analysis showed that gender, whether they love nursing work or not, the average number of night shifts per month, the workplace social capital, and working years were the influencing factors of the work withdrawal behaviors of junior nurses ( P<0.05) . There were statistically significant differences in the workplace social capital among the three categories of junior nurses ( H=83.82, P<0.01) . Conclusions:There are three categories of work withdrawal behaviors among junior nurses, and there are differences in workplace social capital among junior nurses of different categories. Nursing managers should intervene and support junior nurses according to the characteristics of different categories to improve their workplace social capital levels.

5.Association between the ratio of dietary vitamin A to body weight and hypertension in children
Chinese Journal of School Health 2024;45(2):267-272
Objective:
To explore the relationship between the ratio of dietary vitamin A (VitA) to body weight and hypertension among children, so as to provide a reference for blood pressure control through dietary nutritional interventions and childhood hypertension prevention.
Methods:
Utilizing the baseline survey and followup sample data from the Healthy Children Cohort established in urban and rural areas of Chongqing from 2014 to 2019, structured quantitative dietary questionnaire and selfdesigned questionnaire were used to investigate the information of dietary intake and socioeconomic characteristics of 15 279 children, as well as blood pressure, height, weight measurement. The ratio of dietary VitA to body weight was divided into four groups based on quartiles [≤P25(Q1), >P25~P50(Q2), >P50~P75(Q3), >P75(Q4)]. Generalized linear regression models and Logistic regression models were used to analyze the correlation between ratio of dietary VitA to body weight with blood pressure levels and prevalence of hypertension.
Results:
The results of the 2014 baseline survey indicated that, after adjusting for confounding factors such as demographic indicators and nutritional intake, significant differences were observed in systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and mean arterial pressure (MAP) among different groups categorized by the ratio of dietary VitA to body weight (F=157.57, 44.71, 95.92, P<0.01). The baseline ratio of dietary VitA to body weight in children exhibited a negative correlation with DBP, SBP and MAP at baseline and in 2019[baseline: β(95%CI)=-0.65(-0.89--0.42), -0.22(-0.42--0.01), -0.36(-0.56--0.16); 2019: β(95%CI)=-0.77(-1.34--0.19), -0.62(-1.21--0.02), -0.77(-1.34--0.19), P<0.05]. Compared to Q1 group, the risk of hypertension decreased among children in Q4 at baseline and followup in 2019 [OR(95%CI)=0.63(0.49-0.81), 0.18(0.08-0.42), P<0.01].
Conclusions
The ratio of dietary VitA to body weight is significantly negatively correlated with blood pressure levels among children, and dietary VitA deficiency is an independent risk factor for hypertension among children. Measures should be taken to actively adjust childrens dietary nutrition and reduce the risk of childhood hypertension.

Objective To investigate the effect of anti-apoptotic protein HSP-90 in human multiple myeloma cell line U266 cells after bertezomib interaction. Methods The HSP-90 mRNA expression in the U266 cells was tested by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) after 4 hours of treatment of bertezomib by different concentration. Results With the of increased concentration of bortezomib, the expression level of HSP-90 αmRNA was also increased in U266 cells. Respectively, quantitative results of HSP-90α are 0.343±0.017, 0.505±0.039, 0.640±0.029, 0.760±0.059, 0.963±0.054 from the low to high concentration of bertezomib groups. And there are statistical difference between each group(P <0.05). However, the HSP-90β quantitative results in 0 nmol/L concentration of bertezomib (0.61±0.022) have statistical difference between 50, 150, 200 nmol/L groups(P <0.05). HSP-90β quantitative results in 50(0.765±0.050)and 100 nmol/L(0.645±0.052) nmol/L groups are different(P <0.05). Compared with 100 nmol/L concentration of bortezomib group, statistical difference also exists in 150 (0.770±0.059) and 200 nmol/L (0.790±0.027)groups (P <0.05). Although there is no obvious increase in the mRNA expression of HSP-90β from the chart, statistical difference existed in the whole data (P <0.05). Conclusion Bortezomib can increase the level expression of HSP-90 mRNA, and especially increase the level expression of HSP-90α mRNA.

Objective To investigate the loss of heterozygosity at 17 microsatellites of 10 chromosome arms in 68 resected specimens of esophageal cancer, and the relationship to the clinicopathological phenotypes of patients. Methods 68 tumor specimens (20 well-differentiated squamous carcinomas, 30 moderately differentiated carcinomas and 18 poorly differentiated carcinomas) and their matched blood samples were analyzed for LOH at 17 microsatellites by using PCR and fluorescence-based DNA sequencing technology, and the association of LOH with the clinicopathological phenotypes of patients was compared statistically. Results The lowest detection frequency of LOH in our subjects was observed at D8S261 with 33. 3%, and the highest frequency was at D9S125 with 85. 2%. There were 12 markers with the frequency of LOH higher than 50.0%, and 3 markers (D3S1597, D3S1285 and D9S125) with the frequency higher than 75. 0%. There was a significant difference in the frequency of LOH at D9S111 and D13S153 between tumors with different histological grades. LOH at D9S111 was observed in 2 of 12 tumors with well differentiation in 14 of 20 tumors with moderate differentiation, and in 14 of 16 tumors with poor differentiation. LOH at DI3S153 was observed in 2 of 8 tumors with well differentiation, in 12 of 28 tumors with moderate differentiation, and in 11 of 12 tumors with poor differentiation. There was a significant difference in the frequency of LOH at D8S261 between tumors with lymph node metastasis and without lymph node metastasis. LOH at D8S261 was found in 1 of 14 tumors with lymph node metastasis, and in 12 of 22 tumors without lymph node metastasis. Conclusions The widespread and frequent loss of heterozygosity may exist in esophageal cancer, and the candidate genes located in the site of frequent LOH may be involved in the development of this cancer; LOH at D9S11 and D13S153 are more commonly observed in the patients with higher histological grades, the tumors with LOH at D8S261 may have a low tendency to lymph node involvement.
