Objective To explore the mediating role of occupational well-being in the relationship between professional identity and safety behavior among nurses. Methods A total of 1 006 nurses from ten tertiary general hospitals in eight provincial administrative regions were selected as the research subjects using convenient sampling method. Their safety behavior, professional identity and occupational well-being were investigated using Nurse Safety Behavior Scale, Nurse Professional Identity Scale and Occupational Well-being Scale. Structural equation modeling was performed using AMOS 26.0 to examine the mediating effect of occupational well-being in the relationship between professional identity and safety behavior among nurses. Results The scores for safety behavior, professional identity, and occupational well-being were (53.0±6.1), (123.7±21.2) and (90.8±13.1), respectively. Safety behavior was positively correlated with both professional identity and occupational well-being (correlation coefficients were 0.50 and 0.50, respectively, both P<0.01). Professional identity was positively correlated with occupational well-being (correlation coefficient was 0.51, P<0.01). The multiple linear regression analysis results showed that the higher the professional identity and occupational well-being of nurses, the higher the level of safety behavior (both P<0.05). The result of mediating effect shows that the total effect of occupational identity on safety behavior was 0.498 [95% confidence interval (CI) was 0.405-0.576], and occupational well-being played a mediating role between professional identity and safety behavior among nurses with the mediation effect of 0.156 (95%CI was 0.112-0.205), accounting for 31.33% of the total effect. Conclusion The safety behavior of nurses is at a moderate level. Both professional identity and occupational well-being can affect the safety behavior of nurses. Professional identity can increase the safety behavior of nurses by affecting occupational well-being.

Objective: To understand the changing trends and related factors of knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) regarding the three major infectious diseases (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, tuberculosis, hepatitis B) among freshmen in Jiangsu from 2019 to 2022, so as to provide a reference basis for the health education of infectious diseases in schools. Methods: From 2019 to 2022, a total of 33 944 freshmen from 20 universities in Jiangsu Province were randomly selected for four consecutive years to investigate their KAP levels online through self designed questionnaires on three major infectious diseases. The multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the changing trends of students KAP levels of the three major infectious diseases, and to explore the influencing factors of KAP. Results: From 2019 to 2022, the knowledge scores(18.0±3.1,18.4±3.2,18.7±3.2,18.8±3.2), related to the three major infectious diseases showed an upward trend ( F=436.50, P <0.01), and the positive attitude reporting rates were 81.77%, 81.46%, 82.68% and 81.74%, respectively. The reporting rates of positive practice were 80.11%, 79.25%, 79.08 % and 79.04%, respectively. Multiple linear regression showed that school type, parental education level, mother s occupation, average income per person in family and living arrangements during high school all had an impact on the knowledge ( β = -1.510 -0.559), attitudes ( β =-0.043-0.065) and practice ( β =-0.028-0.027) of the three major infectious diseases ( P < 0.05 ). The family residence areas only affected the reporting rate of positive attitude scores ( β =0.002-0.065), and whether only children or not affected the reporting rate of positive practice scores ( β =0.009)( P <0.05). The knowledge score showed an upward trend ( β= 0.297, P <0.01), the positive attitude reporting rate showed no statistically significant change ( β=0.001, P =0.22), and the positive practice reporting rate showed a downward trend ( β=-0.005, P <0.01). Conclusions Freshman in Jiangsu Province from 2019 to 2022 have shown a separation in KAP scores regarding the three major infectious diseases. Targeted measures should be taken to improve their health practice level.

ObjectiveTo combine metabolomics， proteomics， and transcriptomics to analyze the biological characteristics of damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome and damp-heat accumulation syndrome in acute gout. MethodsBlood samples were collected from 15 patients with damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome and 15 patients with damp-heat accumulation syndrome in acute gout in clinical practice. Metabolomics technology was applied to detect serum metabolites， and an orthogonal partial sample least squares discriminant analysis model was constructed to screen for metabolites with significant intergroup changes， and enrichment pathway analysis and receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve analysis were performed. Astral data independence acquisition （DIA） was used to detect serum proteins， perform principal component analysis and screen differential proteins， demonstrate differential ploidy by radargram， apply subcellular localisation to analyse protein sources， and finally apply weighted gene co-expression network analysis （WGCNA） to find key proteins. Transcriptome sequencing technology was also applied to detect whole blood mRNA， screen differential genes and perform WGCNA， and construct machine learning models to screen key genes. ResultsMetabolome differential analysis revealed 62 differential metabolites in positive ion mode and 26 in negative ion mode. These differential metabolites were mainly enriched in the mTOR signaling pathway and FoxO signaling pathway， with trans-3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxycinnamaldehyde， guanabenz， 4-aminophenyl-1-thio-beta-d-galactopyranoside showing the highest diagnostic efficacy. The proteome differential analysis found that 55 proteins up-regulated and 20 proteins down-regulated in the samples of damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome. Notably， myelin basic protein （MBP）， transferrin （TF）， DKFZp686N02209， and apolipoprotein B （APOB） showed the most significant differences in expression. Differential proteins were mainly enriched in pathways related to fat digestion and absorption， lipid and atherosclerosis， and cholesterol metabolism. WGCNA showed the highest correlation between damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome and the brown module， with proteins in this module primarily enriched in the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 （HIF-1） signaling pathway and lipid and atherosclerosis. Transcriptomic differential analysis identified 252 differentially expressed genes， with WGCNA indicating the highest correlation between damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome and the midnight blue module. The random forest （RF） model was identified as the optimal machine learning model， predicting apolipoprotein B receptor （APOBR）， far upstream element-binding protein 2 （KHSRP）， POU domain class 2 transcription factor 2 （POU2F2）， EH domain-containing protein 1 （EHD1）， and family with sequence similarity 110A （FAM110A） as key genes. Integrated multi-omics analysis suggested that damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome in the acute phase of gout is closely associated with lipid metabolism， particularly APOB. ConclusionCompared to damp-heat accumulation syndrome in the acute phase of gout， damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome is more closely associated with lipid metabolism， particularly APOB， and lipid metabolism disorders contribute to the development of damp-heat toxin accumulation syndrome in patients with acute gout.

AIM:This study aims to investigate distinct patterns in food reward behavior and neuroinflammato-ry responses within the ventral tegmental area(VTA)between obesity-prone(OP)and obesity-resistant(OR)rats,while elucidating their potential interplay.METHODS:Twenty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats(5-week-old)were adminis-tered a high-fat diet(HFD)for 8 weeks.Based on body weight tertiles,rats were stratified into OP(highest tertile,n=8)and OR(lowest tertile,n=8)groups.Food reward function was evaluated through conditioned place preference(CPP)test and operant food-seeking task(OFST).Serum lipid profiles were quantified via colorimetric microplate assays,with 24-hour energy expenditure monitored using CLAMS.Western blot and immunofluorescence assays quantified ionized cal-cium-binding adaptor molecule 1(Iba1)and tyrosine hydroxylase(TH)protein expression,while immunofluorescence lo-calized VTA-positive cell spatial distribution and density.RT-qPCR quantified mRNA expression of Iba1,TH,and proin-flammatory cytokines(TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6).ELISA quantified proinflammatory cytokine protein concentrations.RE-SULTS:Following 8-week HFD exposure,OP rats exhibited elevated body weight,total food and calories,adiposity,Lee index,and levels of TG,LDL-C,TC,and NEFA,while HLD-C levels and 24-hour energy metabolism significantly decreased(P<0.05).OP rats demonstrated enhanced CPP preference for HFD-paired cues,elevated lever pressing fre-quency,and increased breakpoints versus OR counterparts(P<0.05),positively correlating with body weight(r=0.766,0.561 and 0.606;P<0.05).OP rats demonstrated elevated Iba1 positive cell density,protein and mRNA expression,and inflammatory mediators in VTA versus OR counterparts,contrasting with diminished TH positive neurons showing re-duced protein and mRNA levels(P<0.05).VTA neuroinflammatory mediators(Iba1,TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6)exhibited inverse correlations with TH protein expression(r=-0.953,-0.866,-0.881 and-0.886;P<0.05).CONCLUSION:The OP rats exhibit attenuated reward sensitivity,elevated HFD preference,and increased palatable food-seeking behavior.These behavioral modifications correlate with VTA neuroinflammation suppressing dopaminergic(DA)biosynthesis.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of physical activity(PA)in overweight and obese children from the individual,family and environment levels.Methods Using a stratified cluster random sampling method,315 children[mean age:9.57±1.45 years;201 boys(63.8%)and 114 girls(36.2%)]were selected from two classes of every grade of one public elementary school in the four main urban districts of Shijiazhuang.Hierarchical linear regression models were employed to ana-lyze the influence of 20 factors on individual,family and environment levels on PA among them.Re-sults Children's age(β=-0.02),sex(βmale=0.12),sedentary time(β=-0.07),ball skills(β=0.12),perceived motor competence(β=0.18),primary caregiver's PA(β=0.17),parental PA support(β=0.10)and home/neighborhood PA environment(β=0.40)were significant factors of their moderate-to-vigorous physical activities(P<0.05).For light physical activity(LPA)and total PA,only sedentary time(βLPA=-0.57,βtotal=-0.52),parental support for children's PA(βLPA=0.15,βtotal=0.16),and home/neighborhood PA environment(βLPA=0.17,βtotal=0.15)were significant predictors(Pall<0.05).Conclusion The influencing factors of PA among overweight and obese children are complex and multidimensional.Elements at the individual,family and environment levels all play significant roles.Therefore,future interventions and policies aimed at promoting PA in this population should take these multifaceted de-terminants into consideration.

Objective To investigate the effects of metformin(Met)on the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells under different glucose concentration culture conditions,and to find the potential role of miR-139-5p in the process.Methods PANC-1 cells were treated with different concentrations of metformin(0/5/10/20 mmol/L)in 25 mmol/L(high-glucose group,HG)or 5 mmol/L(normal-glucose group,NG)glucose culture,cell proliferation,apoptosis,migration and cell cycle were detected after 48 h.The expression of miR-139-5p was quantitatively detected by RT-qPCR,and the miR-139-5p mimics were transfected into PANC-1 cells to clarify the role of miR-139-5p.Results Metformin inhibited the proliferation,promoted apoptosis,and induced S phase and G2/M phase arrest of PANC-1 cells under in high glucose and normal glucose culture conditions,and its anti-proliferation and pro-apoptosis effects were more significant in the normal glucose groups.The expression of miR-139-5p was up-regu-lated by metformin treatment in normal but not in high glucose culture.Further studies showed that miR-139-5p mimics inhibited of PANC-1 cells proliferation without metformin pre-incubation and enhanced the anti-prolifera-tion effect of 5 mmol/L metformin.The pro-apoptotic effect of 10 mmol/L metformin in normal glucose culture conditions.Conclusions In normal-glucose culture conditions,metformin can inhibit proliferation,induce apop-tosis and cell cycle arrest of PANC-1 cells more significantly than in higher-glucose culture,which may be partly related to the up-regulation of miR-139-5p.

Informed consent is an important ethical symbol in clinical research,and researchers have the responsibility to fully inform participants of the research information before conducting clinical research.However,it is difficult to obtain complete informed consent form participants or their guardians within a narrow treatment time period in clinical research conducted in emergency situations.Currently,in addition to traditional general informed consent,there are also reality-accepted informed consent,including exemption of informed consent,broad informed consent,and deferred informed consent.By introducing the origin and development process of deferred informed consent in clinical research,this paper sorted out the current application status of deferred informed consent,proposed the prerequisites for applying deferred informed consent in emergency situations,and explored the issues that need to be noted during the application process of deferred informed consent.It is hoped to provide an ethical defense and ethical procedure for the application of deferred informed consent in clinical research in emergency situations.

Objective: To identify the social ecological factors of individual, family, and physical environments for affecting the development of fundamental motor skills (FMS) among overweight and obese children, so as to provide a basis for the future intervention design and policy making. Methods: From March to April 2022, one public primary school was recruited from each of the 4 main urban areas in Shijiazhuang, and a total of 425 children in schools were recruited for data collection including individual, family, physical environmental factors, by using a stratified cluster random sampling approach. Test of Gross Motor Development-Third Edition (TGMD-3) was used to evaluate children s FMS. Hierarchical linear regression model was employed to analysis the associations between the 18 factors for individual, family, and physical environments, and the FMS of overweight and obese children. Results: Individual level including the child s age, gender and sleep duration, and family level including high family economic level, parental support for physical activity, and the physical activity environment surrounding the family and community were consistent predictors of movement skills ( B =0.422, -1.972, 0.014, 0.045, 1.042, 0.827, 1.898), ball skills ( B =0.858, 3.953, 0.013, 0.092, 2.141, 1.173, 1.954), and composite skills ( B =1.305, 1.915, 0.028, 0.142, 3.091, 1.962, 3.879) among overweight and obese children ( P <0.05). Furthermore, child s body mass index (BMI), moderate to vigorous physical activity, perceived motor competence, pleasure of exercise,as well as BMI and physical activity levels of their primary caregiver, were associated with different types of FMS ( P <0.05). Individual, family, and physical environmental factors had moderate to high predictive explanatory power for FMS among overweight and obese children ( 2=0.69, 0.75, 0.93, P <0.01). Conclusions The factors influencing the development of FMS in overweight and obese children are multifaceted, with individual, family, and physical environment factors all playing significant roles.Corresponding measures should be actively taken to improve FMS in overweight and obese children.
