Objective To explore the thoughts and experiences of exercise adherence in breast cancer patients undergoing endocrine therapy,aims to provide reference for targeted intervention.Methods Employing purposive sampling,a descriptive qualitative study was conducted from Octomber 2023 to November 2024,and 24 breast cancer patients receiving endocrine therapy who visited a tertiary-level hospital in Tianjin,China,were selected for semi-structured in-depth interviews.The data was analyzed through traditional content analysis to extract themes.Results 3 primary themes and 6 sub-themes were identified,including sense of benefits from exercise(including physical benefits and psychological well-being),factors influencing exercise adherence(barriers and facilitators),and supportive needs for exercise adherence(including professional support and guidance,as well as emotional support and companionship).Conclusion Healthcare providers should consider the influencing factors,supportive needs of behavior change,and exercise experiences of breast cancer patients receiving endocrine therapy.Developing targeted exercise rehabilitation programs to address these needs could enhance exercise adherence.

Objective:To translate the Short Self-Regulation Questionnaire (SSRQ) into Chinese, and test its reliability and validity in breast cancer patients.Methods:Using the Brislin translation model, cross-cultural adaptation was conducted by combining expert consultation and a pre-survey on SSRQ. From August to December 2023, 324 breast cancer patients from Department of Breast Surgery of Peking University First Hospital were selected by convenience sampling to test the reliability and validity of SSRQ.Results:A total of 324 questionnaires were distributed and 307 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 94.75% (307/324). The final questionnaire consisted of 30 items. The content validity index at the item level ranged from 0.80 to 1.00, and the content validity index at the scale level was 0.97. The predictive validity result showed a good model fit. The Cronbach's α coefficient for the questionnaire was 0.90, the folded reliability coefficient was 0.85, and the retest reliability coefficient was 0.79.Conclusions:SSRQ has good reliability and validity in breast cancer patients and has value for clinical promotion.

The complement system is an important part of the innate immune system,including more than 50 secretory proteins and membrane-bound proteins,and it contributes to the clearance of apoptotic cells and invading pathogens to limit inflammatory immune responses and maintaining brain homeostasis.Complement activity is strictly regulated to protect cells from random attacks or to prevent the deposition of complement proteins in physiological cases.However,overactivation or abnormal regulation of the complement cascade in the brain can lead to neuronal damage and brain dysfunction.Recent studies have pointed out that changes in complement molecules exist in patients with psychiatric diseases and play an important role in the occurrence and development of diseases by regulating the function of neurons and glial cells.Therefore,summarizing the latest research progress of complement system in psychiatric diseases such as schizophrenia,autism spectrum disorder,major depression,bipolar disorder and anxiety disorder can provide new ideas for preventing and controlling psychiatric diseases caused by abnormal activation of complement system.

Objective:
To assess and analyze clinical nursing workload of tertiary general hospitals in Tianjin.
Methods:
4 tertiary general hospitals in Tianjin were recruited by convenience sampling. 13 representative departments of the medical system and the surgical system were selected as the investigation departments. All the clinical duty nurses of every day work in selected departments were taken as the observation objects. Unified training investigators used work sampling method to observe and record the "operation" , "movement", "waiting" and "others" four types of activities of nurses, taking an observation point in a minute; SPSS17.0 was used for analysis.
Results:
Totally 172 800 sampling points were selected. Besides 2.62% (4 534/172 800) of other affairs, the total nursing workload in one day was 97.38% (168 264/272800), with 85.03% (146 923/172 800) operating time including direct nursing accounting for 33.64% (58 144/172 800), indirect nursing accounting for 8.92% (15 422/172 800), and 42.46% (73 363/172 800) of related nursing. Movement accounted for 11.71% (20 228/172 800), while waiting accounted for 0.65% (1 113/172 800).
Conclusion
Generally, nurses in tertiary general hospitals have long working time and heavy workload, but direct nursing which can reflects the value and connotation of nursing work is low. In nursing work, the "waiting" caused by the lack of personnel, material, equipment, environment problems made a waste of time and human resources to certain extent. Therefore, results of the present study can provide reference for tertiary hospitals to optimize the allocation of nursing human resources, improve the quality of nursing service, reduce the workload of nurses and construct lean management system.

Objective To evaluate the significance of kidney depth obtained by computed tomography (CT) in measuring glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by Gates method in living kidney transplant donors.Methods Individual kidney depth was compared among the estimates of Tφnnesen,Taylor and Li Qian formulas and CT measurements in 167 living-related kidney transplant donors respectively.While maintaining the active region of interest of kidney and background unchanged in 137 99mTe-DTPA renal dynamic imaging cases,GFR was measured by Gates' method and individual kidney compared among the estimates of Tφnnesen,Taylor and Li Qian formulas and CT measurements.Results Left/right kidney depth obtained by CT,Tφnnesen,Taylor and Li Qian formula was 6.82 ± 0.96/7.02 ± 1.00,5.67 ± 0.58/5.71 ± 0.59,6.43 ± 0.77/6.81 ± 0.72 and 7.03 ± 0.76/7.06 ± 0.70 cm;GFR 45.44 ± 9.04/46.61 ± 9.06,37.54 ± 6.34/37.37 ± 6.02,43.39 ± 7.59/44.62 ± 6.94 and 46.99 ± 8.04/46.70 ± 7.30 ml/min respectively.Individual kidney depth and GFR calculated by Taylor and Li Qian were higher than those of Tφnnesen formula (P<0.01).Individual kidney depth and GFR calculated by CT were higher than those of Tφnnesen and Taylor formulas (P<0.01).Left kidney depth and GFR calculated by Li Qian formula were higher than those of CT measurements (P<0.01).And no significant difference existed in right kidney(P>0.05).Conclusions Kidney depth measured by CT improves the accuracy of kidney depth estimated by Gates method and optimizes GFR in living donors for renal transplant.
