		                        			ObjectiveIn order to explore the utilization value of the seeds dropped in the harvesting, processing, storage and transportation of Prunellae Spica, the character, turgidity and chemical composition of the seeds were analyzed and compared with those of the commercially available varieties, such as chia seeds and basil seeds. MethodCharacter was observed directly. The turgidity was determined according to the method of general rule 2101 of Chinese Pharmacopoeia (part Ⅳ, the 2020 edition). The contents of six phenolic acids (danshensu, protocatechuic acid, protocatechuic aldehyde, caffeic acid, salviaflaside and rosmarinic acid) were determined by ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC), acetonitrile (A)-0.1% formic acid aqueous solution (B) was used as mobile phase for gradient elution (0-7 min, 2%-8%A; 7-13 min, 8%A; 13-14 min, 8%-17%A; 14-30 min, 17%A), the detection wavelength was at 280 nm. The liposoluble components were extracted by n-hexane and identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and the contents of five fatty acids, namely palmitic acid, oleic acid, stearic acid, linolic acid and α-linolenic acid, were determined on a DB-35MS capillary column (0.25 mm×60.0 m, 0.25 µm), the injection temperature was 250 ℃, the carrier gas was high-purity helium with a flow rate of 1.0 mL·min-1 and the splitting ratio of 50∶1. The volatile oil was extracted by steam distillation method and its components were identified by GC-MS on a WM-5MS capillary column (0.25 mm×30.0 m, 0.25 µm) with the injection temperature of 250 ℃, the flow rate of 1.0 mL·min-1 and the splitting ratio of 10∶1. ResultPrunellae Spica seeds were slightly smaller than chia seeds and basil seeds, and their color of seed coat was obviously different. Prunellae Spica seeds had strong water absorption and swelling characteristics, and the turgidity was 17.4 mL·g-1, which was lower than that of chia seeds (25.2 mL·g-1) and basil seeds (35.6 mL·g-1). Prunellae Spica seeds were rich in phenolic and fatty acids, while the content of volatile oil was very low. The main phenolic acids were salviaflaside and rosmarinic acid, with the contents of 0.579% and 0.392%, respectively. The total content of five fatty acids in n-hexane extract was 90.1%, and total content of unsaturated fatty acids was 80.6%, among which content of α-linolenic acid was 50.0%, which was slightly lower than 57.2% of chia seeds and similar to 50.0% of basil seeds. ConclusionPrunellae Spica seeds have good turgidity, rich in phenolic acids and unsaturated fatty acids, and especially with high amount of α-linolenic acid. It is worthy of being developed as functional food to realize comprehensive utilization of the waste resources of Prunellae Spica.

		                        			METHODS:
		                        			The data of 725 cases of death for children under 5 years old in Liuyang City from 2013 to 2020 were collected.The causes and difference of death among the children were analyzed retrospectively by descriptive statistic methods.
		                        		
		                        			RESULTS:
		                        			There were a total of 144 516 live births in Liuyang City from 2013 to 2020. The mortality for children under 5 years old was 5.01‰, for infants was 3.39‰, and for newborns was 1.63‰. The male child mortality was 5.28‰, and the female child mortality rate was 4.72‰, with significant difference (P>0.05). The mortality for children under 5 years old was seasonal fluctuation, without significant difference among seasons (P>0.05). For the past 5 years, the top 3 causes for death among children under 5 years old were preterm birth and low birth weight, congenital heart disease, and pneumonia. Before death, 341 cases (47.04%) were treated in provincial hospitals, 198 cases (27.31%) in county-level hospitals, 56 cases (7.72%) in village-level hospitals, and 130 cases (17.93%) were not treated.
		                        		
		                        			CONCLUSIONS
		                        			The mortality for children under 5 years old in Liuyang City is gradually reduced in the past 5 years. The main causes for death are premature birth and low birth weight, congenital heart disease and pneumonia. We should develop healthy education, improve the rate of prenatal diagnosis, promote the construction of obstetrics and paediatrics, and fundamentally reduce the mortality for children under 5 years old.

		                        			Objective To investigate nurses' presenteeism and job stressors, and explore the correlation between them. Methods From January to May in 2017, a total of 380 nurses were investigated in one classⅢ grade A hospital in He'nan and totally 349 valid questionnaires were included. Presenteeism Questionnaire and Nurses Job Stressors Scale were used to investigate nurses' presenteeism and job stressors. SPSS 21.0 statistical package was used to organize and analyze the data. Independent sample t-test and ANOVA, Pearson correlation analysis and multivariate linear regression analysis were used. Results For the 349 nurses, the score of presenteeism was(3.25±0.73) points. Presenteeism behavior score of married nurses was higher than that of the unmarried nurses; presenteeism behavior scores of different titles were different (t=2.655, F=2.830;P<0.05). The score of job stressors was (2.50±0.49) points, which belonged to the medium level. Correlation analysis showed that work environment, interpersonal management had no correlation with presenteeism behavior(P> 0.05) and the other relations between the two variables was positive (P< 0.05). Patient care, time allocation and workload, nursing profession and work had predictive effect on presenteeism behavior (P< 0.05). Conclusions The stressors of nurses in this study are at medium level. The stressors of nurses affect their presenteeism. Nursing managers should take measures to prevent and interfere with the stressors of nurses,reduce the frequency of nurses' presenteeism, promote their physical and mental health and improve the quality of nursing.
