Objective To investigate the association between the TyG index,its modified variants,and the risk of developing colorectal cancer(CRC).Methods This study included a total of 93,177 participants from the 2006 Kailuan Group health examination cohort.Participants were categorized into four quartiles(Q1-Q4)according to their TyG and modified TyG indices.Follow-up began at the baseline examination,with incident CRC as the primary outcome.Participants were censored at the time of CRC diagnosis,death,or the end of the study,whichever occurred first.The dose-response relationship between TyG and its modified indices and the risk of CRC was evalu-ated using restricted cubic splines(RCS)in conjunction with Cox proportional hazards regression models,yielding hazard ratios(HRs)and 95%confidence intervals(CIs).To compare the strength of associations between TyG and its modified versions(TyG-BMI,TyG-WC,TyG-WHR,TyG-WHtR,TyG-WWI)and CRC risk,HRs for CRC per one standard deviation increase in each index were calculated and compared.Results Both the TyG index and its modified variants demonstrated a significant dose-response relationship with the risk of CRC incidence.Specifically,for the TyG index,each 1-standard deviation(SD)increase was associated with a 1.17-fold(95%CI:1.09～1.27)higher risk of CRC.Compared with the first quartile(Q1),the third quartile(Q3)and fourth quartile(Q4)exhibited a 1.25-fold(95%CI:1.01～1.55)and 1.26-fold(95%CI:1.01～1.57)increased risk,respectively.For TyG-BMI,each 1-SD increase was linked to a 1.20-fold(95%CI:1.07～1.35)elevated CRC risk.Compared with Q1,Q3 and Q4 showed a 1.32-fold(95%CI:1.06～1.64)and 1.51-fold(95%CI:1.21～1.88)increase,respectively.Regarding TyG-WC,each 1-SD increment was associated with a 1.22-fold(95%CI:1.13～1.32)higher CRC risk,with Q3 and Q4 showing a 1.35-fold(95%CI:1.08～1.70)and 1.56-fold(95%CI:1.24～1.96)increased risk compared to Q1.For TyG-WHtR,each 1-SD increase was associated with a 1.24-fold(95%CI:1.08-1.42)higher CRC risk.Compared with Q1,Q2,Q3,and Q4 demonstrated a 1.31-fold(95%CI:1.03～1.66),1.55-fold(95%CI:1.23～1.95),and 1.60-fold(95%CI:1.27～2.02)increase,respectively.In the case of TyG-WHR,each 1-SD increase was associated with a 1.19-fold(95%CI:1.10～1.29)higher CRC risk,with Q4 showing a 1.42-fold(95%CI:1.14～1.77)increased risk compared to Q1.Finally,for TyG-WWI,each 1-SD increase was associated with a 1.22-fold(95%CI:1.13～1.32)elevated CRC risk,with both Q3 and Q4 showing a 1.58-fold increase(Q3:95%CI:1.26～1.98;Q4:95%CI:1.25～1.99).Stratified analyses by sex and age consistently revealed significant associations between the TyG index and its modified variants and CRC risk.Furthermore,these indices were independently associated with the incidence of both colon cancer and rectal cancer.Conclusions(1)Elevated levels of the TyG index and its modified variants are independent risk factors for CRC.(2)Both the TyG index and its modified forms demonstrate a significant dose-response association with the incidence of CRC.(3)Among the modified TyG indices,TyG-WWI,TyG-WHtR,TyG-BMI,TyG-WC,and TyG-WHR showed stronger correlations with CRC risk compared to the original TyG index.

Objective:To gain an in-depth understanding of the career development of male nurses in China, analyze trends, challenges, and opportunities, and provide a basis for policy-making, talent cultivation, and professional development in the nursing field.Methods:A descriptive qualitative research method was adopted. From March 29th to July 30th, 2023, the heads of the male nurses working groups of nursing associations in 26 regions of China were selected by purposive sampling method for semi-structured interviews. Content analysis was used to analyze the data.Results:The current situation of the career development of male nurses in China could be summarized into the following three themes. (1) Current situation: the organizational structure of provincial-level male nurses work was basically complete, but there were obvious differences at the grassroots level; the work was carried out in various forms, and diverse models developed in coordination; (2) Trends: there were obvious stratifications in professional ideology and professional abilities of male nurses among different regions and different-level medical institutions; the gender dividend was gradually decreasing, and male nurses should give play to their advantages in logical thinking ability; (3) Prospects: early intervention was needed to enhance professional identity and organizational support; male nurses should be trained in various aspects through multiple forms such as counterpart assistance, expert databases or online academic forums; interdisciplinary development might be the key to stimulating internal driving force.Conclusions:Significant progress has been made in the career development of male nurses in China, but there are still challenges and issues to address. Further improvements in related policies, enhancement of social recognition and professional status, and increased investment and support in research and education are needed to promote the sustained development of male nursing careers.

Objective:To establish a method of measuring the contents of gallic acid, brevifolin, corilagin, geraniin, ellagic acid and rutin in Phyllanthus urinaria L. simultaneously with fingerprint study for analysis. Methods:Phyllanthus urinaria L. was extracted by ultrasound with 50% methanol. Chromatographic separation was performed on a Phenonmenex Luna C18 (4.6 mm×250 mm, 5 μm). The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile (A) and 0.1% phosphoric acid aqueous solution (B) with gradient elution. The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min. The column temperature was 25 ℃, and the injection volume was 10 μl. The detection wavelength was 270 nm. HPLC fingerprints of Phyllanthus urinaria L. from different habitats was established. PCA and OPLS-DA were used to analyze the differences in chemical components of different habitats. Results:Gallic acid, brevifolin, corilagin, geraniin, ellagic acid and rutin showed good linearity at 0.042 8-0.641 6, 0.033 4-0.501 4, 0.142 2-2.133 1, 0.383 1-5.746 5, 0.063 1-0.946 2 and 0.019 2-0.287 8 μg, respectively. The average recovery rate of them was 103.65%, 96.39%, 101.85%, 95.04%, 98.79% and 98.33%, respectively. The HPLC fingerprints of different habitats contained 14 characteristic common peaks, and six compounds characteristic peaks were identified. PCA analysis showed that the chemical components of Phyllanthus urinaria L. from different habitats were different. Geraniin, ellagic acid and corilagin were screened by OPLS-DA. Conclusions:The method is efficient, accurate and sensitive, which can be used to measure the six components in Phyllanthus urinaria L.. The established HPLC fingerprint of different habitats combined with the measrurement method of six components can be used for the quality control and evaluation of Phyllanthus urinaria L..

Objective To redesign the clinical nursing post by scientific method and formulate a post description for ICU nurses. Methods The methods of data analysis, observation and interview were used to make a questionnaire for ICU nurses′ post in one general tertiary-level hospital, opinions of 15 experts were filtered by Delphi method from two rounds of questionnaires. Results Finally, 9 types nursing posts had been confirmed, and we studied out 9 post job descriptions. The experts′authority coefficient was 0. 84 while the had a good expert′s opinion coordination coefficient with 0. 36 (P<0. 05). Conclusions Experts′ opinions on the description of ICU clinical nursing post were concentrated and had high re liabilities in this study. It is consistent with the clinical practice and can provide foundations which includes work training, post evaluation and performance evaluation for ICU staffs.

ObjectiveTo report the first laboratory-confirmed human monocytic ehrlichiosis (HME) case in Shandong Province.MethodsThe epidemiological investigation was done by filling out questionaires.Blood sample was collected for detecting the specific 16S rRNA gene of Anaplasma phagocytophilumandEhrlichiachaffeensisbynested-polymerasechainreaction(PCR).ResultsThis case was characterized by acute onset of fever,leukopenia and thrombocytopenia.The specific 16S rRNA gene of Anaplasma phagocytophilum was negative and the specific 16S rRNA gene of Ehrlichia chaffeensis was positive by nested PCR test.The PCR product was sequenced.The homology was above 99 ％ between the acquired nucleotide acid sequence and the Ehrlichia chaffeensis sequences registered in GenBank.ConclusionThe Ehrlichia chaffeensis infection exists in Shandong Province,which warrants further research on these natural loci of HME in this area.
