Objective:To construct analytical dimensions for policy texts related to the pilot work of Health Impact Assessment (HIA) system in Zhejiang Province and conduct quantitative analysis, thereby providing references for improving the pilot work.Methods:Policy texts issued by Zhejiang Province between February 11, 2018, and February 29, 2024, which involved HIA content, were selected. The policy instruments theory was employed to construct an analytical framework around the dimensions of policy instruments, policy objectives, policy actors, and the interactions between policy instruments and policy objectives, and between policy instruments and policy actors. Based on this framework, a combination of literature analysis and content analysis was used to conduct a multi-dimensional quantitative analysis of the policy texts related to the pilot work of HIA system in Zhejiang Province.Results:Fifty core policy texts were included and 1 588 codes were obtained. In terms of policy instruments, environmental-type instruments were the most widely used (852 items), with internal responsibilities and methodological measures being the most frequently used; supply-type instruments were the second most used (459 items), with mechanism improvement being the most frequently used; demand-type instruments were the least used (277 items), with multi-stakeholder participation being the most frequently used. In terms of policy objectives, the objective of system construction dominated (701 articles, accounting for 56.45%), while the proportion of policy coverage, evaluation technology, and effectiveness evaluation was relatively low. In terms of policy subjects, the Party committee and government were the main policy subjects (434 articles, accounting for 39.20%), followed by health departments and public policy-making departments, while the proportion of public health institutions and social forces was extremely low. In the interaction between policy instruments and policy objectives, policy coverage, system construction, and effectiveness evaluation objectives all responded most frequently to environmental-type instruments, while the evaluation technology objectives responded more frequently to supply-type instruments. In the interaction between policy instruments and policy subjects, the Party committee and government played a dominant role in the use of policy instruments, with the health department and public policy-making department in the middle.Conclusions:The pilot work of the HIA system in Zhejiang Province presented a " environment-driven, system-construction-priority, Party-committee-and-government-led" policy characteristic. The main challenges were the imbalanced structure of policy instruments, insufficient synergy among policy objectives, and the need for greater participation of multiple stakeholders.

Objective: To understand the trends in malnutrition among primary and middle school students of Han nationality in Hainan Province from 2005 to 2019, so as to provide a basis for improving nutrition intervention measures for children and adolescents. Methods: A sample of 32 949 Han nationality primary and middle school students aged 7-18 years old in Hainan Province were investigated in 2005, 2010, 2014 and 2019 based on national survey on student physical fitness and health. The Malnutrition Screening Standard of Schoolage Children and Adolescents was used to screen malnutrition. Statistical analysis was performed using the χ2 test and the χ2trend test. Results: In the four surveys conducted during 2005 to 2019, the prevalence of malnutrition among primary and middle school students were 22.12%, 18.80%, 15.89% and 9.56%, respectively, with an increase of -12.56% and an average annual increase of -5.82%. The decreasing trend of malnutrition by year was statistically significant (χ2trend=600.72, P<0.01), and the proportion of emaciation type was the highest (8.87%-20.15%). The detection rates of malnutrition among all students aged 7 to 18 showed a decreasing trend from 2005 to 2019 (χ2trend=56.44, 60.04, 61.48, 42.49, 51.81, 50.81, 72.86, 101.34, 86.38, 24.81, 17.72, 10.38, P<0.01). From 2005 to 2019, the detection rates of malnutrition in boys were higher than that of girls (in 4 surveys), and that in rural students from 2005 to 2014 of 3 surveys were higher than that in towns (χ2=92.07, 35.16, 25.29, 29.98; 64.35, 4.26, 6.32, P<0.05). Conclusions The malnutrition of Han nationality primary and middle school students aged 7-18 years in Hainan Province show a trend of improvement year by year from 2005 to 2019, despite the overall high detection rate. Wasting is the most common type of malnutrition. The epidemic of malnutrition varies by age, sex and areas. Further targeted measures should be taken to strengthen intervention in the diet of primary and middle school students, to improve the nutritional status of children and adolescents.

Flagella are the main motility structure of Clostridioides difficile that affects the adhesion, colonization, and virulence of C. difficile in the human gastrointestinal tract. The FliL protein is a single transmembrane protein bound to the flagellar matrix. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the FliL encoding gene flagellar basal body-associated FliL family protein (fliL) on the phenotype of C. difficile. The fliL gene deletion mutant (ΔfliL) and its corresponding complementary strains (: : fliL) were constructed using allele-coupled exchange (ACE) and the standard molecular clone method. The differences in physiological properties such as growth profile, antibiotic sensitivity, pH resistance, motility, and spore production ability between the mutant and wild-type strains (CD630) were investigated. The ΔfliL mutant and the : : fliL complementary strain were successfully constructed. After comparing the phenotypes of strains CD630, ΔfliL, and : : fliL, the results showed that the growth rate and maximum biomass of ΔfliL mutant decreased than that of CD630. The ΔfliL mutant showed increased sensitivity to amoxicillin, ampicillin, and norfloxacin. Its sensitivity to kanamycin and tetracycline antibiotics decreased, and the antibiotic sensitivity partially returned to the level of CD630 strain in the : : fliL strain. Moreover, the motility was significantly reduced in the ΔfliL mutant. Interestingly, the motility of the : : fliL strain significantly increased even when compared to that of the CD630 strain. Furthermore, the pH tolerance of the ΔfliL mutant significantly increased or decreased at pH 5 or 9, respectively. Finally, the sporulation ability of ΔfliL mutant reduced considerably compared to the CD630 strain and recovered in the : : fliL strain. We conclude that the deletion of the fliL gene significantly reduced the swimming motility of C. difficile, suggesting that the fliL gene is essential for the motility of C. difficile. The fliL gene deletion significantly reduced spore production, cell growth rate, tolerance to different antibiotics, acidity, and alkalinity environments of C. difficile. These physiological characteristics are closely related to the survival advantage in the host intestine, which is correlated with its pathogenicity. Thus, we suggested that the function of the fliL gene is closely related to its motility, colonization, environmental tolerance, and spore production ability, which consequently affects the pathogenicity of C. difficile.

Objective:To explore the application effect of family-centered empowerment model (FCEM) in rehabilitation nursing of children with femoral shaft fractures treated by skin traction.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 107 children with femoral shaft fractures treated with skin traction in Anhui Children′s Hospital from April 2019 to October 2021, including 67 males and 40 females; aged 1.5-5.0 years [2.8(2.0, 3.5)years]. Fracture types included oblique fracture ( n=50), comminuted fracture ( n=26), transverse fracture ( n=14) and spiral fracture ( n=17). FCEM nursing was implemented in 55 patients (family empowerment group) and routine home rehabilitation nursing guidance was performed in 52 patients (routine nursing group). The face, legs, activity, cry, consolability (FLACC) behavioral score on admission and at days 1, 3 and 7 after skin traction, treatment compliance rate at 1 month after skin traction, complication rate at 1 month after skin traction, length of hospital stay and fracture healing time were compared between the two groups. Results:All patients were followed up for 12-18 weeks [13.4(12.7, 13.9)weeks]. There was no significant difference in FLACC behavioral score between the two groups on admission ( P>0.05). The FLACC behavioral score was (4.0±0.7)points,(3.4±0.6)points and (2.4±0.6)points in family empowerment group at days 1, 3 and 7 after skin traction, lower than (4.8±0.7)points, (3.9±0.8)points and (3.3±0.5)points in routine nursing groups (all Ρ<0.01). One month after skin traction, treatment compliance was excellent in 51 patients, good in 4, poor in 0, with treatment compliance rate of 92.7% (51/55) in family empowerment group, and was excellent in 40 patients, good in 9, poor in 3, with treatment compliance rate of 76.9% (40/52) in routine nursing group ( Ρ<0.05). The complication rate was 5.4% (3/55) in family empowerment group, lower than 21.2% (11/52) in routine nursing group ( Ρ<0.05). The length of hospital stay and fracture healing time were (15.6±0.3)days and (7.1±0.8)weeks in family empowerment group, shorter than (16.8±0.3)days and (8.2±0.4)weeks in routine nursing group (all Ρ<0.01). Conclusion:For children with femoral shaft fractures treated by skin traction, nursing using FCEM can alleviate pain, improve treatment compliance, reduce complication rate, reduce hospital stay and shorten fracture healing time.

Objective:To retrieve, appraise and summarize the evidence for the airway humidification management of the inpatient with laryngectomy and tracheotomy but nonmechanical ventilation and to provide references for the clinical nursing.Methods:The evidence question was raised based on the study objective. The evidence was retrieved from some databases according to the evidence pyramid model during inception to December, 2018. The literature types included clinical practice guideline, evidence summary, best practice information sheet, recommended practice and systematic review. The quality of the literature were evaluated by the suitable evaluated tool based on their types. The level and recommedation grade of the evidence were appraised by the suitable tools of JBI.Results:Thirteen studies were recruited, including one clinical practice guideline, two evidence summaries, one best practice information sheet and nine systematic reviews. Totally thirteen items of best evidence were summarized and generalized to four categories including assessment, method, liquid and operation of airway humidification.Conclusion:The evidences of the studies are scientific and practical, but on the one hand, it is recommended that when applying the evidences in clinic, it is necessary to assess the clinical situation and chose the proper evidence. And on the other hand, there are lacking of some evidences of airway humidification and the level of some evidences is low. So it needs to create more high level evidences.

Objective To investigate the level of anxiety and depression and its influencing factors in patients with intravesical perfusion chemotherapy. Methods Totally 148 patients with intravesical perfusion chemotherapy were investigated using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Self-Perceived Burden Scale and Social Support Rating Scale. Results Among the patients,14.2%(21/148) and 20.3% (30/148) of them expressed respectively their anxiety and depression, and the incidence of anxiety and depression was significantly correlated with the self-perceived burden,social support and its dimensions(P<0.05),in addition to the influence of the course time(P=0.002),religion(P=0.040),and the functional status of the caregiver(P=0.009). Conclusions The incidence rate of anxiety and depression in patients with intravesical perfusion chemotherapy is still to be further controlled.Nursing staff should pay attention to patients' self-perceived burden, and play an important role in social support in order to reduce the incidence of anxiety and depression.

Objective: To determine the levels of vitamin D in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Shenzhen and identify the influencing factors of vitamin D levels and key groups of vitamin D deficiency, so as to provide a scientific basis for tuberculosis- and nutrition-related health education and promotion in Shenzhen. Methods: Patients with smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis who were diagnosed in 2016 were selected as the research subjects. Their relevant information and blood samples were collected, and the sample pool was established according to the inclusion criteria. One hundred and twenty patients were selected based on simple random sampling, including 84 men (70.0%) and 36 women (30.0%). Blood 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations were measured using chemiluminescence technology. Vitamin D statuses in patients were statistically described, and vitamin D levels in patients with different characteristics were compared. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to identify important factors influencing vitamin D levels in patients. Results: Mean serum concentration of 25(OH)D in 120 patients was (40.2±16.0) nmol/L. There were 2 cases of vitamin D sufficiency (1.7%), 28 cases of vitamin D insufficiency (23.3%), and 90 cases of vitamin D deficiency (75.0%), of which 23 cases (19.2%) were of severe deficiency. 25(OH)D concentrations in patients with different lifestyles (indoors; indistinguishable indoors or outdoors; outdoors) were significantly different (35.3 nmol/L vs. 40.6 nmol/L vs. 49.5 nmol/L, F=8.274, P<0.001). Mean concentration of 25(OH)D in patients with sun exposure time of >30 min/d was higher compared to that in those with sun exposure time <30 min/d in the last month (46.4 nmol/L vs. 36.7 nmol/L, t=3.342, P=0.001). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the risk factors for 25(OH)D with statistical significance were Han ethnicity or not (β=-11.576, t=-1.991, P=0.049), housekeeping (including unemployment and retirement) or not (β=-6.136, t=-1.998, P=0.048), sun exposure time<30 min/d or none (β=-9.644, t=-2.829, P=0.006), body mass index (β=-2.056, t=-3.439, P=0.001) , and indoor degree of lifestyles (β=-4.419, t=-2.155, P=0.033). Conclusion Level of vitamin D is generally insufficient in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Shenzhen. It is necessary to strengthen health education related to vitamin D in patients with tuberculosis, especially in the high-risk population of vitamin D deficiency, such as in those with a lack of exposure to sunlight or high BMI.

Objective Androgen receptor ( AR) is extensively expressed in breast cancer and influences the proliferation of the malignant cells.Our study aimed to investigate the effect of AR on estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. Methods ER-positive MCF-7 breast cells were exposed to various concentrations of agonist dihydrotestosterone ( DHT) or antagonist bicalutamide or left untreated .Then the proliferation and apoptosis of the cells were determined by MTT assay , cell counting , and flow cytometry , and the expressions of the proteins related to cell cycle regulation were detected by Western blot . Results The relative gray value of AR was significantly increased in the DHT group (1.055 ±0.020) but decreased in the bicalutamide group (0.705 ±0.010) as com-pared with the blank control (0.795 ±0.020) (both P<0.05).Flow cytometry showed that the early apoptosis rate of the breast cancer cells was markedly higher in the DHT group ([51.20 ±0.312]%) but lower in the bicalutamide group ([2.410 ±0.367]%) than in the blank control ([3.540 ±0.375]%) (both P<0 .01). In comparison with the control group , the expressions of the p53, p73 and p21 proteins in the MCF-7 cells were remarkably up-regulated in the DHT group but down-regulated in the bicalutamide group ( both P<0.05). Conclusion AR inhibits the proliferation of ER-posi-tive breast cancer cells , which suggests that it may be a potential ther-apeutic target for ER-positive breast cancer .

ObjectiveTo investigate effects of the arterial blood collection from radial artery,brachial artery,femoral artery and orsalis pedis artery for gas analysis of infants.Methods Three hundred and fifty two infants receiving blood collection were divided into four groups radial artery (n=92),brachial artery (n=94),femoral artery (n=73) and dorsal artery (n=53).Comparisons were done between them in terms of one-time success rate of puncturing and rate of complications from puncturing.Result The radial artery group had lowest rates of hematoma and mistaken puncturing into veins (P<0.05) and higher rate of one-time successful puncturing (P<0.001).Conclusion The radial artery is the first choice for infants undergoing arterial puncturing.
