As an independent first-level discipline,an appropriate classification of nursing science is significant.In China,each nursing degree-granting institution has developed its own secondary-level discipline directions based on its research characteristics and strengths,with varying names and research scopes.Furthermore,there is no unified global classification system.This paper,based on the characteristics of nursing as a discipline and combined with China's discipline classification principles,used literature analysis,comprehensive classification,philosophical reflection,logical reasoning,and expert consultation methods to explore the connotation of nursing,its unique research objects and scope,and to construct a secondary-level discipline classification system for nursing science that is suitable for China's national conditions.The paper also discussed the challenges faced by the nursing discipline and its future development directions,providing theoretical and practical guidance for the development of the nursing discipline.

[Objective]To investigate the presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in semen after COVID-19 infection in vaccinated individuals and to evaluate the impact of different recovery stages on sperm quality.[Methods]From January to March 2023,vaccinated male patients with recent SARS-CoV-2 infections confirmed by throat swabs were recruited from the Reproductive Medicine Center at the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University.Semen samples were analyzed with RT-qPCR to detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA.A retrospective analysis assessed sperm quality across recovery stages,comparing patients within 30 days of recovery to those with 30 days or more.Semen parameters evaluated included volume,total sperm count,forward motility percentage,abnormal morphology rate,and sperm DNA fragmentation index.In addition,a longitudinal self-comparison was performed to examine changes in semen quality before and after recovery(＜30 days and≥30 days).[Results]SARS-CoV-2 RNA was undetectable in the semen of all 205 patients.Neither cross-sectional comparisons nor longitudinal analyses showed significant differences in semen volume,sperm concentration,total sperm count,sperm morphology rate,sperm DNA fragmentation index,or high DNA stainability between recovery stages or compared to pre-infection values(P＞0.05).However,forward motility percentage markedly decreased during recovery,with statistical significant between groups(P＜0.05).[Conclusions]In vaccinated individuals who contracted COVID-19,SARS-CoV-2 was not transmitted through semen.Although the incidence of asthenozoospermia may increase within 30 days post-infection,this effect appears reversible in the short time.

Objective To enhance the accuracy of sepsis related disease coding and primary diagnosis selection,thereby ensuring the quality of medical record home page and DRG data.Methods Sepsis related disease concepts and coding rules have been reviewed by combining clinical and International Classification of Diseases(ICD-10)expertise.The main diagnostic selection principles of sepsis were summarized based on the filling criteria of the medical record home page and the medical insur-ance settlement list,and sepsis coding ideas were analyzed through clinical cases.Results Negative or unidentified pathogens are classified as A41.9,while sepsis with identified pathogens is mainly classified as A40-A41.8;sepsis of newborn is classified as P36;sepsis during pregnancy,childbirth and puerperium is respectively classified as O03-O08,O75.3,and O85;sepsis follow-ing surgery or operations is classified as T80.2,T81.4,or T88.0;sepsis with organ dysfunction or septic shock should be separate-ly coded as R65.1 or R57.2.The main diagnostic selection of sepsis follows the principle of etiology priority,and the cause and pathogen of sepsis should be confirmed when coding.Conclusion Coders need to master the clinical knowledge and coding rules related to sepsis,read the medical records carefully and strengthen communication with doctors to enhance the accuracy of coding and improve the main diagnosis,thereby ensuring the quality of medical record home page and the accuracy of DRG grouping re-sults.

Objective To understand the current status of employee satisfaction in a certain tertiary public children's hospital under the background of the national performance assessment,explore its influencing factors,and provide data support for improving employee satisfaction.Methods A satisfaction survey was conducted throughout the hospital in July 2024 using the employee questionnaire of the national performance assessment for tertiary public hospitals.The survey covered basic information,salary and benefits,career development and promotion,work content and environment,superior-subordinate relationships,peer relationships,intention to leave,and overall satisfaction.Multiple ordered logistic regression was used to explore the influencing factors of satisfaction.Results A total of 1 675 valid questionnaires were collected.The overall satisfaction score of employees was(78.18±20.63)points,and the intention to leave score was(75.10±24.86)points.The score for peer relationships was relatively high(79.47±14.82)points,while the scores for work content and environment,superior-subordinate relationships,salary and benefits,and career development and promotion were relatively low,at(63.05±17.78)points,(63.54±20.04)points,(63.87±24.37)points,and(69.26±23.43)points,respectively.The results of multiple ordered logistic regression analysis showed that employee job satisfaction was influenced by factors such as gender,years of service,and job position.The degree of influence of each dimension of satisfaction on overall satisfaction was salary and benefits,work content and environ-ment,peer relationships,superior-subordinate relationships,and career development and promotion,in that order.Conclusion The overall satisfaction of employees is on par with that of general hospitals,but there is still considerable room for improve-ment in the dimensions of work content and environment and superior-subordinate relationships.In the future,the hospital should attach great importance to the dimensions with lower satisfaction scores,continuously improve the work environment,deepen the salary distribution system,and ensure that employee satisfaction is effectively enhanced,laying a solid foundation for the high-quality development of the hospital.

Aim To reveal the mechanism of CIP4 homologs protein 1(RICH1)are involved in the regu-lation of myocardial fibrosis.Methods Mouse cardiac fibroblasts(MCFs)cells were treated with transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β1)to induce the formation of a myocardial fibrosis cell model;the level of the target protein was detected by Western blotting;and the RICH1 gene was detected by transfection of the cells with plasmid.The RICH1 gene was overexpressed(RICH 1 OE)using plasmid transfection;the RICH1 gene was silenced using siRNA fragment(siRICH1);and the expression levels of myocardial fibrosis marker genes,such as Col1 a1,Col3 a1,and Acta2,were de-tected using RT-qPCR.Results RICH1 was signifi-cantly down-regulated in TGF-β1-treated MCFs;the expression levels of myocardial fibrosis marker genes,such as Col1 a1,Col3a1,and Acta2,were down-regu-lated in the RICH1 OE+TGF-β1 group;and in the siRICH1+TGF-β1 group,myocardial fibrosis marker genes,such as Col1 a1,Col3a1 and Acta2 were up-regulated at the expression level;phosphorylated SMAD2(p-SMAD2)and phosphorylated SMAD3(p-SMAD3)levels were down-regulated in the siRICH1 OE+TGF-β1 group.p-SMAD2 and P-SMAD3 levels were upregulated in the siRICH1+TGF-β1 group.Conclusion RICH1 inhibits TGF-β1-induced myo-cardial fibrosis;RICH1 inhibits TGF-β1-induced myo-cardial fibrosis by negatively regulating the SMAD2/3 signaling pathway.

Objective To specifically extract and analyze nascent proteins synthesized by bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)after transplantation into ischemic hearts using a technique employing mutant methionyl-tRNA synthetase(MetRSL247G)for nascent protein labeling,in order to explore the potential mechanisms of action in BMSCs post-transplantation.Methods Point mutation at position 274 of the MetRS gene in BMSCs was induced via lentiviral infection to enable azidonorleucine(ANL)-mediated labeling of nascent proteins in BMSCs.The labeling efficiency was verified by means of fluorescent non-canonical amino-acid tagging(FUNCAT).Thirty healthy female C57BL/6J mice(8-10 weeks old)were divided into control and experimental groups,with 15 mice in each group.The acute myocardial infarction model was constructed by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery in experimental group,while control mice underwent only thoracotomy without coronary ligation.After modeling,both groups received intramyocardial injections of MetRSL247G-modified BMSCs(MetRSL247G-BMSCs)at 3 different sites in the peri-infarct ischemic region.Mice were intraperitoneally injected with ANL every 6 hours for 4 times on postoperative days 0,2,and 6(n=5 for each time point)respectively,euthanized 24 h after the last injection,and cardiac tissues were isolated.The newly synthesized and labeled proteins produced by BMSCs after transplantation into the myocardium of experimental and control groups were collected,using an enrichment technique for ANL-tagged proteins and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS)analysis.Gene ontology(GO)analysis,Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway analysis,protein-protein interaction(PPI)analysis,and heatmap visualization analysis were performed to identify differentially expressed proteins at the 3 time points and screen key pathways and genes.Results Under fluorescence microscopy,the MetRSL247G lentivirus-infected BMSCs were observed to be labelled with mCherry signals,confirming the successful construction of the MetRSL247G-BMSCs cell line.Green fluorescent signals were detected only in nascent proteins in culture medium containing both MetRSL247G-BMSCs and ANL,validating the sensitivity and specificity of the labeling method.GO analysis revealed that differentially expressed proteins were primarily involved in basic cellular biological processes such as extracellular exosome formation,extracellular matrix organization,and focal adhesion.KEGG and PPI analyses indicated that the differential proteins were mainly involved in complement and coagulation cascade pathway,actin cytoskeleton regulation pathway,and apoptosis pathway.Heatmap analysis showed significantly upregulated expression of anti-apoptosis and cell adhesion-related factors in experimental group on day 1(P＜0.05),upregulated anti-apoptotic factors,pro-apoptotic factors,and cell adhesion-related factors on day 3(P＜0.05),and upregulated anti-apoptotic factors,cell differentiation-related factors,and cell adhesion-related factors on day 7(P＜0.05)compared with control group.Expression of apoptosis-inducing factor 1 was significantly downregulated on days 1 and 7(P＜0.05).On day 3,most differentially expressed proteins,including anti-apoptosis factors(Protein S100-A11,Clusterin,Gelsolin),pro-apoptosis factor(Cathepsin B),cell differentiation-related factor(Transgelin-2),and cell adhesion-related factors(Cofilin-1,Periostin,Fibronectin)were significantly upregulated(P＜0.05).Conclusions The MetRSL247G mutation enables BMSCs to incorporate ANL and synthesize labeled proteins,confirming the feasibility of this nascent protein labeling technique.Nascent proteins of BMSCs in ischemic myocardium primarily contribute to extracellular exosome secretion and extracellular matrix organization.BMSCs may adapt to and respond to ischemic and hypoxic environments by influencing complement and coagulation cascades,activating inflammatory factors,regulating actin cytoskeleton structure,and modulating apoptosis,thereby maintaining the survival of BMSCs.

Objective To explore the association between psychological resilience and internet addiction among senior primary school students,so as to provide a scientific basis for formulating strategies for preventing internet addiction and enhancing psychological resilience in this group.Methods A stratified cluster sampling method was employed.In May 2021,a total of 1 618 fourth-and fifth-grade students from 5 primary schools in Jiading District,Shanghai were surveyed on psychological resilience and internet addiction through questionnaires.Independent sample t-tests,chi-square tests,and Logistic regression models were used for data analysis.Results Among the 1 618 students,the prevalence rate of internet addiction was 8.8%(142 students).The total score of psychological resilience(t=6.215,P<0.001)and the scores of three dimensions,namely family support(t=3.509,P<0.001),goal focus(t=6.965,P<0.001),and positive perception(t=5.887,P<0.001),of those reported with internet addiction were all significantly lower than those without internet addiction.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with individuals with low psychological resilience,those with moderate(aOR=0.395,95%CI:0.267-0.584,P<0.001)and high psychological resilience(aOR=0.167,95%CI:0.077-0.365,P<0.001)had a lower probability of internet addiction.The three sub-dimensions of psychological resilience,namely goal focus,positive perception and family support,also showed a statistically significant negative association with internet addiction in these students.Conclusion Nearly one-tenth senior primary school students in Jiading District self-reported internet addiction.Higher levels of psychological resilience were associated with a lower probability of internet addiction among senior primary school students.Focusing on enhancing the goal focus,positive perception and family support dimensions in psychological resilience may be of great significance for preventing internet addiction among senior primary school students.

Objective:To evaluate the sample preparation proficiency and storage proficiency of 11 clinical biobanks in Beijing through simulated experiments, and to establish an assessment method for the quality comparability of biological samples.Methods:An exploratory research design was adopted. In November 2023, artificial composite serum quality control materials containing six recombinant human protein markers—recombinant human alanine aminotransferase (rhALT), recombinant human aspartate aminotransferase (rhAST), recombinant human creatine kinase (rhCK), recombinant human creatine kinase-MB (rhCK-MB), recombinant human B-type natriuretic peptide (rhBNP), and recombinant human troponin I (rhTNI)—were distributed to 11 clinical biobanks in Beijing City. Sample preparation and storage followed the standardized operating procedures. Proficiency differences were assessed through statistical analysis.Results:Three-way repeated measures ANOVA revealed all six protein markers showed a declining trend over storage time in ultra-low-temperature environments ( F values 11.68-4 179.66, all P<0.01). However, neither long-term/temporary refrigerator types ( F values 0.01-1.23, all P>0.05)nor placement locations within refrigerators significantly affected the stability of these six proteins ( F valus 0.03-1.47, all P>0.05). The biases in detection results for rhALT, rhAST, rhTNI, and rhBNP at different storage time points were within the allowable bias limits for each item, supporting their use as markers for protein stability in biobank samples. All 11 institutions passed the storage proficiency assessment. In the preparation proficiency assessment, deviations were observed in post-preparation sample results, with a notably high out-of-control rate for rhCK (36.36%). Conclusion:Sample preparation proficiency can serve as a quality control metric for clinical biobanks. Future external quality assessment systems for biobanks should focus on sample preparation rather than storage processes.
