Objective To explore the mediating role of occupational well-being in the relationship between professional identity and safety behavior among nurses. Methods A total of 1 006 nurses from ten tertiary general hospitals in eight provincial administrative regions were selected as the research subjects using convenient sampling method. Their safety behavior, professional identity and occupational well-being were investigated using Nurse Safety Behavior Scale, Nurse Professional Identity Scale and Occupational Well-being Scale. Structural equation modeling was performed using AMOS 26.0 to examine the mediating effect of occupational well-being in the relationship between professional identity and safety behavior among nurses. Results The scores for safety behavior, professional identity, and occupational well-being were (53.0±6.1), (123.7±21.2) and (90.8±13.1), respectively. Safety behavior was positively correlated with both professional identity and occupational well-being (correlation coefficients were 0.50 and 0.50, respectively, both P<0.01). Professional identity was positively correlated with occupational well-being (correlation coefficient was 0.51, P<0.01). The multiple linear regression analysis results showed that the higher the professional identity and occupational well-being of nurses, the higher the level of safety behavior (both P<0.05). The result of mediating effect shows that the total effect of occupational identity on safety behavior was 0.498 [95% confidence interval (CI) was 0.405-0.576], and occupational well-being played a mediating role between professional identity and safety behavior among nurses with the mediation effect of 0.156 (95%CI was 0.112-0.205), accounting for 31.33% of the total effect. Conclusion The safety behavior of nurses is at a moderate level. Both professional identity and occupational well-being can affect the safety behavior of nurses. Professional identity can increase the safety behavior of nurses by affecting occupational well-being.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for the occurrence of intradialytic hypotension (IDH) in elderly maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients based on longitudinal multidimensional data.Methods:This was a single-center, retrospective observational study. Data of MHD patients were retrospectively analyzed from April 3, 2017 to December 31, 2021 in the blood purification center of National Clinical Research Center for Kidney Diseases, General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command. IDH defined by the Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative was used as outcome indicator. Generalized estimating equations were used for univariate and multivariate regression analysis. The importance of each factor on the occurrence of IDH was evaluated by chi-square statistic minus degrees of freedom, and sensitivity analysis was performed by 5-fold interpolation of missing data.Results:A total of 156 elderly patients were enrolled, 91(58.3%) of whom were male, and 2 681 dialysis data recordings were included. The incidence of IDH from 2017 to 2021 fluctuated from 8.3% to 13.2%, with an average incidence of 11.0% by 2021. The results of multivariate regression showed pre-dialysis systolic pressure of 140-159 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa, 90-139 mmHg as reference: OR=0.482, 95% CI 0.273-0.851, P=0.012), pre-dialysis diastolic pressure ≥ 90 mmHg (60-89 mmHg as reference, 90-99 mmHg: OR=4.081, 95% CI 2.132-7.809, P < 0.001; ≥ 100 mmHg: OR=8.547, 95% CI 3.233-22.597, P < 0.001), albumin (34-48 as reference, < 34 g/L: OR=2.677, 95% CI 1.592-4.502, P < 0.001; > 48 g/L: OR=2.692, 95% CI 1.102-6.577, P=0.030), C-reactive protein ≥ 8 mg/L (< 8 mg/L as reference: OR=1.787, 95% CI 1.216-2.628, P=0.003), hemodiafiltration as the dialysis mode (hemodialysis as the reference: OR=2.256, 95% CI 1.395-3.648, P=0.001), actual ultrafiltration volume/dry body mass (per 1% increase, OR=1.539, 95% CI 1.139-2.080, P=0.005), and ultrafiltration rate (per 100 ml/h increase, OR=1.641, 95% CI 1.389-1.939, P < 0.001) were independently associated with the occurrence of IDH. Contribution analysis showed that the top three factors related to IDH were ultrafiltration rate ( χ 2- df=32.798), pre-dialysis diastolic pressure ( χ 2- df=20.757) and albumin ( χ 2- df=19.971). The sensitivity analysis showed that the regression results were robust. Conclusions:The risk factors of IDH in elderly MHD patients are increasing ultrafiltration rate, higher pre-dialysis diastolic pressure(≥ 90 mmHg), lower albumin (< 34 g/L), HDF, higher c-reactive protein(≥ 8 mg/L) and increasing actual ultrafiltration volume/dry body mass. Higher pre-dialysis systolic pressure (140-159 mmHg) is a protective factor.

Objective To develop a new type of electric stapler, so as to solve the problems of insufficient rotation angle, inconvenient operation and difficulty in controlling the pressing strength of existing products. Methods An electric stapler was designed and manufactured. The motion trajectory curve of the prototype was measured by using the three-coordinate imaging instrument to build functional test platform of the prototype, and the goodness of fit was used to evaluate consistency between the theoretical curve and the measured curve. The small intestine tissues of fresh pig were anastomosed at different bending angles of the front end, and the forming rate of the anastomotic stoma was measured. Results The goodness of fit between the test curve and the theoretical curve for both turning motion and shooting motion was ideal, while the goodness of fit between the test curve and the theoretical curve for pressing motion was not ideal when the turning joint was bent at 0°-30°, and was ideal when it was bent at 45°-60°. In performance test, the deformity rate of the nail was smaller than 1.14%, indicating that the bending angle had no significant impacts on the anastomotic effect. Conclusions The kinematics curves of shooting motion and turning motion are consistent with the theoretical curves. The pressing motion curves fluctuate at different bending angles, which will not affect the anastomotic effect, and the effect of the electric stapler meets the clinical requirements.

Objective: To compare the efifcacy and safety of circumferential pulmonary vein antecourt isolation (CPVAI) ablation and stepwise linear (SL) ablation in treating the patients with atrial ifbrillation (AF) Methods: A total of 136 AF patients with catheter ablation under EnSite 3000 guidance in our hospital were retrospectively summarized. The patients included 93 paroxysmal AF and 43 persistent AF and divided into 4 groups. Paroxysmal AF with CPVAI ablation,n=45, Paroxysmal AF with SL ablation,n=48 and persistent AF with CPVAI ablation, n=18, persistent AF with SL ablation,n=25. The differences of left atrium diameter, ablation time, X-ray exposure time, the success rate and complication were compared among different groups. Results: For 12 months follow-up study, the success rate and complication were similar between 2 ablation methods for treating both Paroxysmal AF and persistent AF patients. For Paroxysmal AF patients, both ablation methods could effectively reduce left atrium diameter,P<0.01. The SL ablation had less procedural time than CPVAI ablation,P<0.01, while the X-ray exposure time was similar between 2 ablation methods. Conclusion: Both CPVAI and SL ablation methods were effective and safe for treating AF patients.

JadH is a bifunctional hydoxylase/dehydrase involved in jadomycin biosynthesis; it catalyzes a post-PKS modification reaction to convert 2,3-dehydro-UWM6 to dehydrorabelomycin. To identify the key residues involved in substrate-binding and catalysis, structural modeling and multiple sequence alignments of JadH homologs were performed to predict nine residues at the proximity of substrate. Site-directed mutagenesis of the corresponding residues and in vitro evaluation of the activities of the mutant enzymes, indicate these mutations severely reduced JadH activity. Our results indicate these residues are specifically involved in substrate-binding or catalysis in JadH.
