Objective:To explore the longitudinal effect of learning stress on learning burnout in vocational college students, and the mediating role of academic procrastination.Methods:A total of 1 212 vocational college students were selected, and two follow-up surveys were conducted at 12-week intervals in September (T1) and November (T2) of 2024 using the basic situation questionnaire, the burnout inventory-student survey, the learning pressure questionnaire and the brief academic procrastination scale. SPSS 26.0 software was used to compare the demographic characteristics of students' depersonalization using t test and single factor analysis of variance. Bootstrap was used to analyze the relationship among learning stress, academic procrastination and learning burnout. Results:The scores of learning stress at T1 and T2 for vocational college students were 14.47±3.52 and 14.52 ±3.50, the scores of academic procrastination at T1 and T2 were 27.14±9.07 and 27.21±9.04, and the scores of learning burnout T1 and T2 were 39.38±8.76 and 39.69±8.79.The t-test showed that the score of learning burnout at T1 of students aged 18 and below (36.70±8.72) was lower than students aged 18 above (40.15±8.63, t=-5.81, P<0.01). The score of learning burnout for liberal arts students at T1(40.82±8.54) was higher than that of science students (37.68±8.72, t=6.31, P<0.01). Single factor analysis of variance showed that the score of learning burnout for grade 1 students at T1(35.19±8.45) was lower than that of grade 2 students (41.33±7.98) and grade 3 students (38.92±9.88), and learning burnout score of grade 2 students at T1 was higher than that of grades 3 students ( F=61.59, P<0.01). The score of learning burnout for high-achieving students at T1(36.23±8.34) was lower than that of middle-achieving students (39.82±8.52) and low-achieving students (45.42±9.14), and the score of learning burnout for middle-achieving students at T1 were lower than that of low-achieving students ( F=36.53, P<0.01). Bootstrap test showed that academic procrastination T2 played a partial mediating role in the relationship between learning stress T1 and learning burnout T2 (effect size=0.04, 95% CI=0.03-0.07). Academic procrastination T1 played a partial mediating role in the relationship between learning stress T1 and learning burnout T2 (effect size=0.05, 95% CI=0.04-0.07). Conclusion:Learning stress can directly affect learning burnout in vocational college students, and also can indirectly affect learning burnout through the mediating effect of academic procrastination.

Objective: To study the relationship between compassion fatigue and workplace psychological violence, alexithymia, and empathy in clinical nurses. Methods: A total of 1 159 clinical nurses from 10 cities in Henan and Fujian Provinces were enrolled using the method of grabbing random balls. Questionnaires including Workplace Psychologically Violent Behaviors Instrument, the Toronto Alexithymia Scale, Jefferson Scale of Empathy Health Professionals, Professional Quality of Life Scale were used to investigate the status of workplace psychological violence, alexithymia, empathy, and compassion fatigue in participants. Bootstrap analysis was used to analyze the relationship between workplace psychological violence, alexithymia, empathy, and compassion fatigue scores. Results: The average score for workplace psychological violence among clinical nurses was (26.2±6.5), with 405 nurses (34.9%) having experienced workplace psychological violence. The scores for alexithymia, empathy and compassion fatigue were (58.3±12.3), (104.3±18.6) and (48.5±6.7) respectively. Mild compassion fatigue was detected in 34.9% of participants, while moderate to severe compassion fatigue accounted for 48.8%. Bootstrap test result showed that workplace psychological violence had a positive impact on compassion fatigue ［standardized effect value (β)=0.40, 95% confidence interval(CI)： 0.35-0.44］. Workplace psychological violence had separate mediating effects through alexithymia (β=0.15, 95%CI： 0.10-0.19), empathy (β=0.16, 95%CI： 0.10-0.21) , and a chain mediating effect through alexithymia and empathy on compassion fatigue (β=0.06, 95%CI： 0.03-0.09). Conclusion: Compassion fatigue symptoms are relatively common among clinical nurses. Experiencing workplace psychological violence directly affects compassion fatigue and can indirectly affect it through the mediating effects of alexithymia and empathy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect and safety of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with microwave ablation (MWA) in the treatment of advanced primary liver cancer. MethodsA total of 186 patients with advanced primary liver cancer who were treated in The Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from April 2015 to June 2019 were enrolled and divided into study group and control group using a random number table, with 93 patients in each group. Both groups of patients underwent TACE, and the patients in the study group were treated with ultrasound-guided percutaneous MWA. The two groups were compared in terms of clinical outcome and complications. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to measure the serum level of microRNA-202 (miR-202), ELISA was used to measure the serum levels of fragile histidine triad (FHIT) and P16 protein, and the changes in the above three indices at 3 months after treatment were compared. The two-independent-samples t test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the paired t-test was used for comparison within one group before and after treatment; The chi-square testwas used for comparison of categorical data between groups. ResultsThe study group had a significantly higher objective response rate than the control group (47.32% vs 27.96%, χ2=7.422, P=0.006), and there was no significant difference in disease control rate between the two groups(P＞0.05). Both groups had significant increases in the serum levels of miR-202, FHIT, and P16 protein at 3 months after treatment (all P＜0.05), and compared with the control group, the study group had significantly higher serum levels of miR-202 (0.84±0.14 vs 0.58±017, t=11.385, P＜0.001), FHIT (1126.35±73.05 pg/ml vs 762.87±56.71 pg/ml, t=37.904, P＜0.001), and P16 protein (52.86±651 pg/ml vs 39.06±5.37 pg/ml, t=15.770, P＜0.001). ConclusionUltrasound-guided MWA in addition to TACE can improve the short-term response of patients with advanced primary liver cancer and increase the serum levels of miR-202, FHIT, and P16 protein, with relatively high safety.

Objective: To examine the value and clinical application of convolutional neural network in pathological diagnosis of metastatic lymph nodes of gastric cancer. Methods: Totally 124 patients with advanced gastric cancer who underwent radical gastrectomy plus D2 lymphadenectomy at Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from July 2016 to December 2018 were selected in the study. According to the chronological order, the first 80 cases were served as learning group. The remaining 44 cases were served as verification group. There were 45 males and 35 females in the study group, with average age of 57.6 years. There were 29 males and 15 females in the validation group, with average age of 9.2 years. The pre-training convolutional neural network architecture Resnet50 was trained and fine-tuned by 21 352 patches with cancer areas and 14 997 patches without cancer areas in the training group. A total of 78 whole-slide image served as a test dataset including positive (n=38) and negative (n=40) lymph nodes. The convolutional neural network computer-aided detection (CNN-CAD) system was used to analyze the ability of convolutional neural network system to screen metastatic lymph nodes at the level of slice by setting threshold, and evaluate the system′s classification accuracy by calculating its sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Results: The classification accuracy of CNN-CAD system at slice level was 100%.The AUC for the CNN-CAD system was 0.89. The sensitivity was 0.778, specificity was 0.995, overall accuracy was 0.989. Positive and negative predictive values were 0.822 and 0.994, respectively. The CNN-CAD system achieved the same classification results as pathologists. Conclusions The CNN-CAD system has been constructed to distinguished benign and malignant lymph node slides with high accuracy and specificity. It could achieve the similar classification results as pathologists.

Objective To investigate the correlation between occupational stress,uncertain endur-ance and job burnout of pre-hospital emergency nurses. Methods A total of 380 pre-hospital emergency nurses were recruited by stratified cluster sampling method.The occupational burnout scale(MBI)including emotional exhaustion(EE),depersonalization(D)and diminished personal accomplishment(PA),the In-tolerance of Uncertainty Scale(IUS),the Nursing Stressor Scale(NSS)including stresses associated with nurse expectations(NSS1),with family(NSS2),with interpersonal relationship(NSS3),with nature of work (NSS4),with patient(NSS5)and with work load(NSS6)were applied for all subjects.Results The pre-hospital emergency nurses who had worked less than 3 years got the higher EE score(33.58 ± 4.34)and higher PA score(26.98±4.31)than those who had worked 3 to 10 year(22.33±4.05,16.14±4.28,P<0.05) or longer than 10 years(21.50±4.36,16.81±4.36,P<0.05).Nurses got higher EE score(33.82±4.28,22.96 ±4.39,21.04±4.62,P<0.05),and higher PA scores(27.02±4.21,16.04±4.31,16.01±4.30,P<0.05)than the nurse practitioner or above levels.People whose monthly income were below 0.3 million got higher PA scores than those whose monthly income were 0.3 million or more(26.75±4.24,16.47±4.27,17.11±4.34,P<0.05).People who got degrees of bachelor or above had PA scores which was more than people who got de-grees under bachelor(26.33±4.36,17.24±4.28,P<0.05).Regression analysis showed that the multiplication score between IUS and NSS1 had the interaction effect with EE and D scores(β=0.33,0.33,P<0.05); the multiplication score between IUS and NSS5 had the interaction effect with EE and D scores(β=0.31,0.30, P<0.05)and the multiplication score between IUS and NSS3 had the interaction effect with D scores(β=0.34,P<0.05).Conclusion The pre-hospital emergency nurses'job burnout varies according to their length of service,job title,educational level and salary,and is also influenced by the combination of occupational stress and uncertain endurance.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effects of needle-pricking therapy, a newly medical and minimally invasive technique, for functional retrograde ejaculation and to explore its mechanism. Methods Thirty-six patients with functional retrograde ejaculation were randomly divided into an observation group(19 cases) and a control group(17 cases) In the observation group,needle-pricking therapy was used at Guanyuan(CV 4) and bilateral sacral plexus nerve,lumbar 1 nerve and greater occipital nerve stimulating points,once a week. In the control group, midodrine tablets were prescribed orally,three times a day. All the treatment was given for 9 weeks. The clinical effects of the two groups were observed, and the levels of luteinizing hormone(LH), testosterone(Tes) and estra4 diol(E2) were compared between the two groups.

RESULTSThe total effective rate of the observation group was, 89. 47%(17/19), which was better than 47.06% (8/17) of the control group(P<0. 05). The LH and Tes were obviously increased and E2 was decreased compared with those before treatment in the observation group(all P< 0. 01). Tes was raised(P<0. 05) and E2 was apparently declined in the control group(P<0. 01). After treatment, the differences of serum LH and Tes were statistically significant between the two groups(both P<0. 01).

CONCLUSIONNeedle-pricking therapy has advantages for functional retrograde ejaculation probably in that stimulating lumbosacral nerves can strengthen the function of pelvic floor muscles and urethral expansion muscle and regulate sexual gland axis.
