To investigate the current status of sleep quality among nurses in tertiary hospitals in China, analyze the correlations of work stress and perceived organizational support with the risk of sleep problems, and further examine the mediating effect of perceived organizational support between work stress and sleep problems in nurses. A multi-stage cluster stratified random sampling method was employed to select nurses from tertiary hospitals in different regions across China from October 2023 to April 2024 as research subjects to investigate the current status of their sleep quality. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis was conducted to examine the linear/non-linear relationships between work stress, perceived organizational support, and the risk of sleep problems in nurses. The Bootstrap method was applied to test the mediating effect of perceived organizational support between work stress and sleep problems in nurses. A total of 6634 nurses from tertiary hospitals were surveyed in this study, with 6106 valid questionnaires recovered, yielding a response rate of 92.04%. The 6106 nurses were divided into eastern ( The nurses in tertiary hospitals in China usually present poor sleep quality. Perceived organizational support plays a partial mediating role between work stress and sleep problems in nurses. Therefore, enhancing the level of organizational support can help alleviate the impact of work stress on sleep quality.

Objective To explore the correlation between the test panel of serum CC chemokine ligand 3(CCL3),soluble podoplanin(sPDPN),fatty acid-binding protein 5(FABP5)and the severity of lung injury and clinical outcomes in children with severe pneumonia.Methods A total of 168 children with severe pneumonia who visited our hospital from January 2022 to January 2023 were included in this study as severe group.The patients were assigned to good outcome group(137 cases)or poor outcome group(31 cases)based on their prognosis.Additional 80 children with mild or moderate pneumonia were treated as non-severe group.In addition,80 children who underwent health checkup were included as control group.Baseline data such as body mass index and duration of disease were observed and recorded for all children.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to detect the expression levels of C-reactive protein(CRP),procalcitonin(PCT),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),CCL3,sPDPN,and FABP5 in the serum of all children.The Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ)score and Lung Injury Prediction(LIPS)score were rated to evaluate the degree of lung injury.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of various factors on the poor outcome of children with severe pneumonia.Spearman correlation was applied to analyze the correlation between the expression levels of CCL3,sPDPN,FABP5 and poor outcome,the severity of lung injury,APACHE Ⅱ score,and LIPS score in children with severe pneumoniae.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the diagnostic value of CCL3,sPDPN,and FABP5 expression levels for poor outcome in children with severe pneumonia.Z-test was used to compare the differences in area under the curve(AUC).Results The baseline data such as duration of disease,body mass index,age,and sex did not show significant differences among the control group,non-severe group,and severe group(P>0.05).The levels of serum CRP,PCT,IL-6,TNF-α,CCL3,sPDPN increased,while the level of FABP5 decreased gradually from the control group to non-severe group,and severe group(P<0.05).The patients with poor outcomes showed higher serum levels of CRP,PCT,IL-6,TNF-α,CCL3,sPDPN,APACHE Ⅱ score,and LIPS score but lower FABP5 level compared to the patients with good outcomes(P<0.05).TNF-α,CCL3,sPDPN,APACHE Ⅱ,and LIPS scores were independent risk factors for poor outcomes in children with severe pneumonia,while FABP5 level was independent protective factor for poor outcomes in children with severe pneumonia(P<0.05).The levels of CCL3 and sPDPN were positively correlated with APACHE Ⅱ score and LIPS score,while FABP5 was negatively correlated with APACHE Ⅱ score and LIPS score(P<0.05).The AUC of CCL3,sPDPN,and FABP5 alone was 0.802,0.864,and 0.859 respectively for predicting poor prognosis in children with severe pneumonia.The test panel of CCL3+sPDPN+FABP5 was superior to CCL3,sPDPN,or FABP5 alone(Zcombination-CCL3=3.842,Zcombination-sPDPN=2.585,Zcombination-FABP5=2.957,P<0.05).Conclusions The serum levels of CCL3 and sPDPN are positively correlated with the severity of lung injury,while FABP5 is negatively correlated with the severity of lung injury in children with severe pneumonia.The test panel of CCL3+sPDPN+FABP5 is valuable for predicting poor outcomes in children with severe pneumonia.

Objective To explore the mechanism of transforming growth factor-beta/p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases (TGF-β/P38MAPK) signaling pathway that transformed corallin into a transforming growth factor-beta/p38 mitogen activated protein kinases (TGF-β/P38MAPK).Methods The hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) were divided into blank group,positive group and 10-10,10-9,10-8,10-7,10-6,10-5,10-4,10-3 mol/L mycoralin solution groups according to the random number table method.After 24 h,the cell proliferation rate was determined by MTT assay.The HFSCs were divided into blank group,positive group and low,medium and high dose groups according to the random number table method.The positive group was added with 5 mol/L of alkaline fibroblast growth factor solution,while the low,medium and high dose groups were added with 10-7,10-6 and 10-5 mol/L of mycoralin solution for intervention.The cell proliferation rate was determined by MTT assay.The protein expressions ofTGF-β,phosphorylated P38(p-p38),P38,Bax and bcl-2 in cells were detected by Western blot,and mRNA expressions of Bax and bcl-2 in cells of each group were detected by real-time quantitative PCR.Results Compared with the blank group,the productivity of the cells (0.418 ± 0.031,0.412 ± 0.014,0.468 ± 0.024 vs.0.353 ± 0.006) in the 10-7,10-6 and 10-5 mol/L aucubin groups significantly increased (P<0.01).Compared with the blank group,the protein expression of TGF-β (0.377 ± 0.027,0.338 ± 0.021,0.322 ± 0.017 vs.0.557 ± 0.017),p-p38 (0.270 ± 0.020,0.228 ± 0.013,0.216 ± 0.012 vs.0.461 ± 0.012),Bax (0.450 ± 0.017,0.365 ± 0.011,0.279 ± 0.006 vs.0.551 ± 0.015) in the low,medium and high dose groups significantly down-regulated,while the Bcl-2 (0.450 ± 0.017,0.365 ± 0.011,0.279 ± 0.006 vs.0.358 ± 0.011) protein expression significantly increased.Compared with the blank group,the expression of Bcl-2 (1.714 ± 0.028,2.514 ± 0.054,3.382 ± 0.084 vs.1.000 ± 0) mRNA increased,Bax (0.415 ± 0.020,0.353 ± 0.090,0.235 ± 0.114 vs.1.000 ± 0) mRNA in the low,medium and high dose groups significantly down-regulated (P<0.01).Conclusions By regulating the TGF-β/p38MAPK signaling pathway,mycoralin can reduce the expression of downstream apoptotic factors,and promote the repair of damaged skin.
