Microtubulin disease，which is rare in prenatal settings，is characterized by severe brain developmental abnormalities due to mutations in the microtuberin gene.In this article，a patient diagnosed with TUBB3-related microtubule proteinopathy during prenatal testing was reported，serving as a reference for prenatal physicians. A 33-year-old pregnant woman，who was 23 +5 weeks pregnant，visited to Peking University First Hospital Ningxia Women and Children's Hospital. During a prenatal ultrasound examination，it was discovered that the fetal brain midline was curved，the septum pellucida was twisted，the left lateral fissure had an oblique platform shape，the left lateral ventricle was enlarged，and there were left thoracic cystadenoma and right ventricular hyperechoic plaques. Whole exome sequencing was performed and revealed a mutation in the TUBB3 gene. The pregnancy was terminated at 26 +6 weeks of gestation. Prenatal ultrasound can detect some signs of microtubule protein disease，and genetic testing is recommended for prenatal diagnosis to comprehensively assess the prognosis of the fetus.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of coping strategies in the relationship between disease uncertainty and post-discharge coping difficulties in mothers of preterm infants.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select 255 mothers of preterm infants from Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University, Linyi People 's Hospital, Weifang Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Maternal and Child Care Center of Dezhou, Dongying People 's Hospital between March and May 2023. General information surveys, the Parents ' Perception of Uncertainty Scale, the Simple Coping Style Questionnaire, and Post-Discharge Coping Difficulty Scale-Parent Form were administered on the day of discharge and 3 weeks post-discharge. Structural equation modeling was constructed using AMOS 23.0 software, and the mediating effect was tested using the Bootstrap method. Results:The disease uncertainty score for the 255 mothers of preterm infants was 66.00 (53.00, 77.00), the active coping score was 23.00 (17.00, 27.00), the passive coping score was 10.00 (7.00, 13.00), and the post-discharge coping difficulties score was 42.00 (26.00, 55.00). Mediating effect analysis showed that active and passive coping partially mediated the relationship between disease uncertainty and post-discharge coping difficulties, with mediating effects of 18.73% and 17.06%, respectively.Conclusions:Disease uncertainty can indirectly affect post-discharge coping difficulties through active and passive coping strategies. Healthcare providers should assist mothers of preterm infants in appropriately managing disease uncertainty and actively coping with challenges.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of positive coping style between social support and post-discharge coping difficulty among mothers of premature infants, so as to provide guidance for medical staff to deeply understand and improve the post-discharge coping difficulty of mothers.Methods:A convenience sampling method was employed to select 310 mothers of premature infants from the neonatal intensive care units of five tertiary level A hospitals in Shandong Province from March to June 2023 as the study population. A cross-sectional survey was conducted using the general information questionnaire, the Social Support Rating Scale, the Simple Coping Style Questionnaire, and the Post-Discharge Coping Difficulty Scale-Parent Form.Results:A total of 280 valid questionnaires were returned, among which the age of mothers was (32.70 ± 5.08) years. The score of social support, positive coping style and post-discharge coping difficulty in mothers of preterm infants was (42.59 ± 7.40), (23.06 ± 6.75) and (3.64 ± 1.74) points respectively. Social support was positively associated with positive coping style ( r=0.404, P<0.01), social support and positive coping style were negatively associated with post-discharge coping difficulty ( r=-0.368, -0.369, both P<0.01). Positive coping style partially mediated the relationship between social support and post-discharge coping difficulty, which accounted for 31.11% of the total effect. Conclusions:Social support can affect post-discharge coping difficulty of mothers of premature infants through positive coping style. Medical staff should pay attention to the enhancement of social support and the cultivation of positive coping style of mothers of premature infants, and take targeted measures to reduce the post-discharge coping difficulty.

【Objective】 To explore the causal association between the onset of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and migraine and to provide genetic evidence, a two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) method was used in this study. 【Methods】 Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) information for both samples was obtained from publicly available genome-wide association study (GWAS) databases, in which the appropriate SNPs were selected as instrumental variables, and then bidirectional MR analysis used five MR analysis methods including inverse variance weighting (IVW), MR-Egger regression, weighted median, weighted mode and simple mode methods, followed by sensitivity analysis. 【Results】 IVW showed positive results of forward MR analysis with GERD as exposure [OR=1.398 7, 95%CI (1.181 7-1.655 6), P=9.59×10^-5] , while no positive significance of reverse MR analysis results with migraine as exposure (P>0.05). The same results were obtained in methods other than MR-Egger method. Meanwhile, none of the instrumental variables were found to be horizontally polytomous (P=0.92, P=0.64), and the results were robust after the leave-one-out method to exclude single SNPs. 【Conclusion】 There may be a unidirectional causal association between GERD and migraine, and GERD is a risk factor for migraine development.

Objective:To explore the relationship between challenge-hindrance stressors and thriving at work in clinical nurses, and to analyze the mediating role of intrinsic motivation.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey. A total of 319 nurses from the Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, Shandong Provincial Qianfoshan Hospital from May to June 2022 were investigated by general data questionnaire, Challenge-Hindrance Stressors Scale, Intrinsic Motivation Scale and Thriving At Work Scale. Pearson was used to analyze the correlation between various variables, and Amos 23.0 was used to construct a structural equation model to analyze the mediating role of intrinsic motivation between challenging stressors, hindrance stressors, and thriving at work.Results:The score for challenging stressors was (21.22 ± 4.42) points, the score for hindrance stressors was (13.51 ± 3.59) points, the score for intrinsic motivation was (78.96 ± 11.52) points, and the score for thriving at work was (51.27 ± 8.03) points. Challenging stressors was positively associated with intrinsic motivation and thriving at work ( r=0.222, 0.221, both P<0.01), hindrance stressors was negatively associated with intrinsic motivation and thriving at work ( r=-0.152, -0.337, both P<0.01), intrinsic motivation was positively correlated with thriving at work ( r=0.564, P<0.01). Intrinsic motivation was partially mediated between challenging stressors, hindrance stressors and thriving at work, respectively accounting for 16.02% and 13.79%. Conclusions:Challenging stressors and hindrance stressors can indirectly influence their thriving at work through intrinsic motivation. Nursing managers should help nurses treat different stressors correctly to enhance their intrinsic motivation and promote their thriving at work.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of illness perception in the relationship between fear of disease progression and sleep quality in patients with ovarian cancer during chemotherapy, and to provide a theoretical basis for improving sleep quality in patients with ovarian cancer during chemotherapy.Methods:From January to August 2022, 300 patients with ovarian cancer undergoing chemotherapy in Shandong First Medical University Affiliated Provincial Hospital, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, Shandong Cancer Hospital were included by convenient sampling. A cross-sectional questionnaire survey included the Chinese version of the Fear of Progression Questionnaire Short Form for cancer patients, the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Bivariate factor analysis, Spearman correlation analysis, and the Bootstrap confidence interval evaluation method were used.Results:A total of 287 valid questionnaires were collected. The scores of fear disease progression, illness perception, and sleep quality were 30.00 (22.00, 36.00), 37.00 (32.00, 44.00), and 6.00 (3.00, 11.00), respectively. Sleep quality was positively correlated with fear disease progression ( r=0.250, P<0.001) and illness perception ( r=0.326, P<0.001). Illness perception played a partial mediating role in the relationship between fear of disease progression and sleep quality, accounting for 41.4% of the total effect. Conclusions:Ovarian cancer patients during chemotherapy reported poor sleep quality. In clinical practice, health care providers including nurses can take interventions aimed at reducing fear of disease and improving illness perception level to improve the sleep quality of ovarian cancer patients during chemotherapy.

【Objective】 To study the role and mechanism of sinomenine in the macrophage polarization induced by gastric cancer cells. 【Methods】 Sinomenine was added to gastric cancer cells BGC-823 and MKN-45， cell viability was measured by CCK-8， cell proliferation was measured by colony formation experiment， Co-culture and Transwell cell migration experiments were used to evaluate the recruitment and polarization of macrophages by sinomenine， flow cytometry was used to evaluate the polarization of macrophages， and qRT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of gene RNA and protein levels. 【Results】 Sinomenine could inhibit the proliferation of gastric cancer cells and the recruitment of gastric cancer cells to macrophages， thus promoting macrophage M2 polarization. It simultaneously inhibited the expression of STAT6 as well as the expression and phosphorylation of C/EBPβ. When STAT6 is overexpressed， it could reduce these inhibitory effects of sinomenine on gastric cancer cells. Further research found that STAT6 mediated the secretion of IL-6 by gastric cancer cells， which was the cause of sinomenine-mediated macrophage recruitment and M2 polarization. 【Conclusion】 The natural drug sinomenine has a good tumor-suppressing ability against gastric cancer， directly inhibits the survival and migration of gastric cancer cells， and inhibits the expression of IL-6 and the M2 phenotype in the tumor microenvironment， reshapes the tumor environment， and reduces the risk of M2 type macrophages for gastric cancer tumors.

Objective:To explore the expression of polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 1 (PTBP1) in gastric cancer (GC) tissues and GC cell lines, and the role of PTBP1 in the proliferation and metastasis of GC cells.Methods:From January to June in 2019 at The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University, the cancer tissues and corresponding para-cancer tissues of GC patients underwent surgical resection were collected. The Kaplan-Meier Plotter database was used to analyze the survival of GC patients. The expression of PTBP1 was down-regulated by transfecting small interfering RNA (siRNA) in human GC cell lines SGC7901 and AGS with relatively high expression of PTBP1. The cells were divided into blank control group, negative control group, and PTBP1 knockdown group. The expression of PTBP1 at mRNA and protein level were detected by real-time fluorescence quantification polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blotting. At 24, 48, 72 and 96-hour after transfection, the effect of PTBP1 on the proliferation of GC cells was observed by 3-(4, 5 dimethylthiazol)-2, 5 diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) experiment. The changes of invasion and migration of GC cells after down-regulation of PTBP1 were detected by transwell assay. The expression changes of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers E-cadherin, N-cadherin and vimentin after down-regulation of PTBP1 in GC cells were determined by Western blotting. Indenpendent samples t test, analysis of variance and rank sum test were used for statistical analysis. Results:The Kaplan-Meier Plotter prognostic analysis showed that the overall survival of GC patients with high PTBP1 expression was shorter than that of GC patients with low PTBP1 expression (9.2 months, 6.2 months to 17.2 months vs. 19.0 months, 14.5 months to 28.4 months), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=5.31, P<0.05). The results of RT-qPCR showed that in GC cell lines SGC7901 and AGS, the expression of PTBP1 at mRNA level of PTBP1 knockdown group was lower than that of blank control group and negative control group (SGC7901: 0.78±0.11 vs.3.10±0.19 and 2.99±0.23; AGS: 0.80±0.09 vs. 3.55±0.24 and 3.50±0.18), and the differences were statistically significant ( tSGC7901=10.57 and 8.08, tAGS=10.91 and 13.42; all P<0.01). The results of Western blotting indicated that in GC cell lines SGC7901 and AGS, the expression of PTBP1 at protein level of PTBP1 knockdown group was lower than those of blank control group and negative control group (SGC7901: 0.38±0.04 vs. 1.42±0.05 and 1.35±0.09; AGS: 0.17±0.02 vs. 1.52±0.08 and 1.38±0.45), and the differences were statistically significant ( tSGC7901=15.94 and 10.57, tAGS=16.60 and 20.80; all P<0.01). The results of MTT showed that at 48, 72 and 96-hour after transfection the absorbance values of PTBP1 knockdown group decreased by 0.25±0.01, 0.38±0.02, and 0.84±0.04 as compared with those of negative control group, and the decrease was the most significant at 96-hour after transfection, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=10.21、14.32, both P<0.01). The results of transwell experiment demonstrated that the number of invasion and migration cells of PTBP1 knockdown group were both less than that of the blank control group and the negative control group (SGC7901: 42.00±5.91 vs. 116.40±10.23 and 114.40±10.43; 39.60±6.77 vs. 125.80±11.51 and 122.40±5.90; AGS: 40.20±7.25 vs. 115.60±14.63 and 117.40±9.12; 36.00±5.20 vs. 122.40±12.10 and 125.40±12.74), and the differences were statistically significant ( tSGC7901=14.07, 13.50, 14.43 and 20.62; tAGS=10.27, 14.75, 14.68 and 16.76; all P<0.01). The results of Western blotting showed that the expression of E-cadherin of PTBP1 knockdown group was higher than that of the blank control group and the negative control group (SGC7901: 1.42±0.05 vs. 0.53±0.05 and 0.57±0.03; AGS: 1.34±0.04 vs. 0.54±0.03 and 0.61±0.01), however the expression levels of N-cadherin and vimentin were both lower than those of the blank control group and the negative control group (SGC7901: 0.50±0.03 vs. 1.64±0.05 and 1.46±0.07; 0.32±0.07 vs. 1.42±0.07 and 1.33±0.07; AGS: 0.37±0.06 vs. 1.47±0.04 and 1.36±0.04; 0.41±0.04 vs. 1.53±0.06 and 1.37±0.04), and the differences were statistically significant ( tSGC7901=11.63, 13.19, 18.83, 11.68, 11.43 and 10.43; tAGS= 15.02, 16.23, 14.67, 12.97, 14.45 and 17.18; all P<0.01). Conclusions:The expression levels of PTBP1 increase in GC tissues and cells, which may be involved in regulating the proliferation, metastasis and EMT of GC cells.
