Objective To establish educational milestones for nursing students at different educational stages and compare their distinctions and interrelationships.Methods Methodologies including literature review,role analysis,brainstorming,and the Delphi expert consultation method were used to determine the competency level classification framework and the target competency levels for different categories of students,thereby to formulate the educational milestones.Results A competency classification framework comprising 7 levels was developed.This culminated in an educational milestone system for nursing students,which includes 7 first-level competency indicators,17 second-level competency indicators,61 third-level indicators,and their correspondig target proficiency levels.Conclusion The milestone system can delineate the training objectives for various core competency dimensions among different student categories and illustrate their distinctions and connections.This system is conducive to enhancing the specificity,differentiation,and systematicity of nursing education.

Objective:Based on the activities of Helicobacter pylori ( HP) screening in Jiangsu Province in 2024, to evaluate the overall management ability in HP screening, testing, treatment and follow-up in primary medical facilities. Methods:From May 15 to October 18, 2024, the data of HP screening and treatment were retrospectively collected from 79 township health centers, community hospitals, and community health service centers in Jiangsu Province. The rates of screening completion, urea breath test (UBT) completion, treatment rate, UBT follow-up completion, and HP eradication were analyzed. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results:The completion rate of HP screening was 94.45% (15 489/16 400). There were 6 604 cases (42.64%) with serum HP antibody positive among the 15 489 individuals who completed screening. The positive rate of serum HP antibody in males was higher than that in females (44.77%, 2 643/5 904 vs. 41.32%, 3 961/9 585), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=17.69, P<0.001). The positive rates of serum HP antibody in screened individuals aged 18 to 19, 20 to 39, 40 to 59, and 60 to 75 years old were 22.38% (32/143), 36.12% (1 168/3 234), 45.01% (3 240/7 199), and 44.05% (2 164/4 913), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=100.73, P<0.001). Among the 6 604 HP antibody-positive individuals, 4 381 cases completed UBT, with a UBT completion rate of 66.34% (4 381/6 604). There were 3 197 individuals with both HP serum antibody and UBT positive, the consistency rate of the 2 tests was 72.97% (3 197/4 381). Totally 2 737 cases received treatment, with a treatment completion rate of 85.61% (2 737/3 197); 2 327 individuals underwent UBT follow-up, with a follow-up completion rate of 85.02% (2 327/2 737). During follow-up, the result of UBT was negative in 1 982 individuals, and the HP eradication rate was 85.17% (1 982/2 327). Conclusions:There are deficiencies in the completion rate of HP screening, testing, treatment, and follow-up in primary hospitals, especially in the completion rate of UBT, which may be related to cognitive insufficiency for HP in residents. It is necessary to strengthen the training of physicians′ abilities in primary hospitals, optimize the allocation of drug resources, enhance health education, and increase residents′ participation and compliance.
