Objective:To explore the organizational identity, sense of coherence, perceived social support, and work engagement of surgical nurses in a traditional Chinese medicine hospital and the relationships between them.Methods:From March to May 2022, 450 surgical nurses were selected by convenience sampling from Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine for a survey with a general information questionnaire, the Organizational Identification Scale, the Sense of Coherence Scale, the Perceived Social Support Scale, and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale-9. SPSS 24.0 was used to perform Pearson correlation analysis. AMOS 24.0 was used for structural equation modeling.Results:The nurses' scores of organizational identity, sense of coherence, perceived social support, and work engagement were (26.00±5.00), (53.58±7.50), (47.47±7.50), and (30.06±1.00), respectively. The correlation analysis revealed positive correlations between organizational identity, sense of coherence, perceived social support, and work engagement ( r=0.369-0.741, all P<0.001). Sense of coherence played a partial mediating role between perceived social support and work engagement, and the mediating effect was 0.07, accounting for 12.07% of the total effect. Organizational identity and sense of coherence produced a chain mediating effect between perceived social support and work engagement, in which the mediating effect was 0.11, accounting for 18.97% of the total effect. Conclusions:Organizational identity and sense of coherence produce a chain mediating effect between perceived social support and work engagement in the surgical nurses of the traditional Chinese medicine hospital.

Objective The occurrence of chickenpox in rapidly developing areas poses substantial seasonal risk to children.However,certain factors influencing local chickenpox outbreaks have not been studied.Here,we examined the relationship between spatial clustering,heterogeneity of chickenpox outbreaks,and socioeconomic factors in Southern China. Methods We assessed chickenpox outbreak data from Southern China between 2006 and 2021,comprising both relatively fast-growing parts and slower sub-regions,and provides a representative sample of many developing regions.We analyzed the spatial clustering attributes associated with chickenpox outbreaks using Moran's I and local indicators of spatial association and quantified their socioeconomic determinants using Geodetector q statistics. Results There were significant spatial heterogeneity in the risk of chickenpox outbreaks,with strong correlations between chickenpox risk and various factors,particularly demographics and living environment.Furthermore,interactive effects among specific are factors,such as population density and per capita residential building area,percentage of households with toilets,percentage of rental housing,exhibited q statistics of 0.28,0.25,and 0.24,respectively. Conclusion This study provides valuable insights into the spatial dynamics of chickenpox outbreaks in rapidly developing regions,revealing the socioeconomic factors affecting disease transmission.These implications extend the formulation of effective public health strategies and interventions to prevent and control chickenpox outbreaks in similar global contexts.

Objective:To understand the epidemiological characteristics of public health emergency events (PHEE) of varicella in China from 2006 to 2021 and related response performances.Methods:The data of varicella PHEE in 31 provinces of China from 2006 to 2021 were collected through the Public Health Emergency Management Information System, Microsoft Excel 2019 software and SPSS 26.0 statistical software were used to conduct descriptive epidemiological, statistical analysis on the time, area, location distribution, scale and epidemic management.Results:A total of 11 443 PHEE involving 341 048 related cases were reported from 2006 to 2021, with an annual attack rate of 1.78%-3.80% and a total attack rate of 2.33% (341 048/14 624 042). The number of PHEE and related cases of varicella decreased from 1 107 (35 349) in 2007 to 262 (6 884) in 2012 ( Z=-2.40, P<0.001), then increased year by year to 1 318 (42 649) in 2019 ( Z=2.58, P<0.001), with a significant decline since 2020. The varicella PHEE in China presents the seasonal characteristics,the peak is from April to June and from October to December, respectively. The sub-peak of varicella PHEE in eastern China generally appears 1-2 months earlier than in central and western China. Varicella PHEE reports are mainly distributed in eastern China, the attack rate is relatively high in western China, school-reported varicella PHEE was 88.26% of the total reports (10 099/11 443). The epidemic scale of varrcella PHEE typically range from 10 to 29 cases per year among the given outbreaks. The M ( Q1, Q3) of average number of cases, average duration, and average reporting interval of PHEE were 23 (16,35), 20 (14, 26) days, and 9 (5,19) days, respectively, and the reporting interval was positively correlated with the duration ( r=0.854, P<0.001). Conclusions:The varicella PHEE in China from 2006 to 2021 has not been effectively controlled. Schools are the key places to prevent and control varicella PHEE. Improving the sensitivity of varicella PHEE monitoring, strengthening the timely disposal of varicella epidemic, and promoting varicella vaccination are effective measures to prevent and control varicella PHEE.

Objective:To investigate the expression of B7-H3 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and its prognostic significance.Methods:The paraffin-embedded tumor tissues of 103 patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL in Linyi Central Hospital from May 2013 to May 2019 were detected by using immunohistochemistry. The association of the expression of B7-H3 protein with the clinicopathological features, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of DLBCL patients was analyzed. Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the factors affecting PFS and OS.Results:The positive rate of B7-H3 protein in patients with DLBCL was 68.0% (70/103). There were no statistically significant differences in the positive rate of B7-H3 protein among patients with different gender, age, clinical staging, international prognostic index (IPI) score, treatment effect, B symptoms, pathological type and other clinicopathological characteristics (all P > 0.05). The 5-year PFS and 5-year OS rates were 24% and 32% in all patients, the 5-year PFS rates were 47% and 14% in B7-H3 negative and B7-H3 positive patients, respectively ( P < 0.01); and 5-year OS rates were 50% and 24% in B7-H3 negative and B7-H3 positive patients, respectively ( P < 0.001). Multi-factor Cox regression analysis showed that B7-H3 positive was an adverse affecting factor of PFS ( HR = 2.685, 95% CI 1.503 - 4.789, P = 0.001) and OS ( HR = 2.262, 95% CI 1.248 - 4.098, P = 0.007). Conclusions:The moderate and high expression of B7-H3 may be related to the poor prognosis of DLBCL patients.

The clinical data of 5 cases of chylous ascites in preterm infants admitted in NICU of Peking Union Hospital from 2001 to 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 3 boys and 2 girls with the gestational age of 29 +1 weeks, and birth weight of (1 122±323) g. No peritoneal effusion was found on prenatal ultrasound examination. All the five cases diagnosed with chylous ascites after the initiation of enteral nutrition on d4 to d10. All cases were resolved by conservative treatment, including fasting with total parenteral nutrition for 3 wks. The parenteral nutrition strategy was specified by high protein concentration (4 g·kg -1·d -1) and low lipid emulsion (2.0-2.5 g·kg -1·d -1). Formula containing 50% medium chain triglyceride or human milk was fed sequentially, and no feeding intolerance or abdominal distension were observed. All patients were discharged stable and followed up for 3-5 years,and no recurrence occurred. The PubMed and Wanfang database were searched for cases of chylous ascites in preterm infants, and 7 cases were reported in literature. Six cases were diagnosed by antenatal ultrasound between 21 and 23 weeks of gestational age. Three cases underwent radionuclide lymphoscintigraphy, and 2 of them demonstrated peritoneal lymphatic fistula or lymphatic dilatation. Five cases were treated with fasting plus intravenous infusion of octreotide. Three infants who failed to respond to conservative treatment underwent surgical treatment. Four cases were complicated with sepsis and needed intravenous antibiotic treatment.
