Objective:To explore the current status of post management for orthopedic specialist nurses in Beijing, so as to provide reference for formulating orthopedic specialist nurse management systems.Methods:Purposive sampling was used to select 254 orthopedic specialist nurses who participated in the Orthopedic Specialist Nurse Qualification Certification Training Course organized by the Beijing Nursing Association from 2014 to 2020. A survey was conducted using the self-developed Post Management Questionnaire and Job Satisfaction Questionnaire.Results:254 orthopedic specialist nurses came from 46 hospitals in Beijing. 92.9% (236/254) of orthopedic specialist nurses had a bachelor's degree or higher, 69.3% (176/254) of specialist nurses had intermediate or higher professional titles, and hospitals with 67.7% (172/254) of specialist nurses established post management systems or policies. The work of specialist nurses mainly focused on clinical nursing, and also undertook nursing teaching, nursing quality management, organizing nursing rounds, and clinical case nursing. The main factors hindering the development of orthopedic specialist nurses were the heavy workload of clinical affairs, lack of clear job evaluation indicators, and lack of clear career development direction.Conclusions:The post management of orthopedic specialist nurses in Beijing has gradually been carried out, but there is still room for improvement in the implementation of advanced nursing practice activities, assessment and evaluation, and special incentives for specialist nurses. Managers should further establish a sound, scientific, and effective management system, fully leverage the advanced clinical nursing practice role of orthopedic specialist nurses, and promote the scientific application of orthopedic specialist nurses.

Objective:To develop an Arteriovenous Fistula Physical Examination Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Scale for Hemodialysis Nurses and test its reliability and validity.Methods:Based on the theory of knowledge, attitude, and practice, a preliminary scale draft was formed through a literature review, three rounds of Delphi expert consultation, and a pre-survey. Using convenience sampling, 311 hemodialysis nurses were selected for a survey from December 2022 to February 2023 for item analysis, exploratory factor analysis and reliability testing. Another survey was conducted on 260 hemodialysis nurses from February to June 2023 for confirmatory factor analysis, convergent validity, and discriminant validity testing.Results:The Arteriovenous Fistula Physical Examination Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Scale for Hemodialysis Nurses included three subscales and five dimensions, with a total of 33 items. The content validity index at the item level was 0.867 to 1.000, and the content validity index at the scale level was 0.992. After exploratory factor analysis, two, one, and two common factors were extracted from the knowledge, attitude, and practice subscales, with cumulative variance contribution rates of 70.114%, 75.192%, and 67.467%, respectively.Confirmatory:factor analysis showed that the model fitted well. The Cronbach's α coefficients of the three subscales were 0.929 to 0.943, the half reliability coefficients were 0.861 to 0.903, and the retest reliability coefficients were 0.824 to 0.874. Conclusions The Arteriovenous Fistula Physical Examination Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Scale for Hemodialysis Nurses has good reliability and validity and can be used to evaluate the physical examination ability of hemodialysis nurses for arteriovenous fistula.

Objective:To evaluate the best preventive measures for hypothermia in patients undergoing hip and knee replacement.Methods:Cochrane Library, PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and Chinese biomedical literature database were searched by computer. Randomized controlled trials on hypothermia prevention measures in hip and knee arthroplasty were searched, and back into the literature references, the retrieval time is from database establishment to December 2019; the two researchers independently conducted literature screening, quality evaluation, and data extraction according to the inclusion exclusion criteria, and used Revman5.3 software for meta-analysis of the included literature.Results:A total of 608 patients were included in 11 literatures. The results of Meta-analysis showed that: in terms of core temperature, the main outcome index, the Forced-air Warming System was superior to the non-Forced-air Warming measure such as electric blanket, electric heating pad and circulating water mattress ( SMD=0.59, 95% CI 0.27-0.92, P=0.0004); in terms of secondary outcome indexes, the Forced-air Warming System was better than the non-Forced-air Warming measure such as electric blanket, electric heating pad and circulating water mattress ( OR=0.28, 95% CI 0.14-0.58, P=0.0006); in terms of thermal comfort, the Forced-air Warming System had no significant effect ( SMD = 0.21, 95% CI-0.56-0.98, P=0.59). Conclusion:Compared with the Forced-air Warming System, the non-Forced-air Warming measure can effectively maintain the core temperature of patients undergoing hip and knee arthroplasty, reduce the occurrence of postoperative chills, but in the aspect of improve thermal comfort of patients is not obvious. However, due to the number of studies and their statistical heterogeneity, large sample and high-quality studies are needed to verify the results of this study.

Objective:To investigate the relationships of rs4658971 polymorphism of disrupted-in-schizophrinia-1 ( DISC1) gene with schizophrenia in children and adolescents and with the brain structure of such patients. Methods:(1) A total of 577 children and adolescents with schizophrenia were recruited from the Inpatient Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from October 2010 to December 2018, and 516 healthy children were selected as the control group.The rs4658971 polymorphism of DISC1 gene was detected by restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The differences of DISC1 genotype and allele frequencies between schizophrenia patients and healthy children were compared by Chi-square test.(2)One hundred and eighteen patients with the first-episode schizophrenia whose illness duration was no more than 12 months and 101 healthy children and adolescents were detected by 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The craniocerebral structures of patients with different DISC1 genotypes were analyzed by covariance with age as the covariant. Results:(1) The rs4658971 genotype frequencies(TT 6.6% vs.5.2%, TC 37.4% vs.38.4%, CC 56.0% vs.56.4%, χ2=0.91, P=0.63) and allele frequencies(C 74.70% vs.75.58%, T 25.30% vs.24.42%, χ2=0.23, P=0.63) of DISC1 gene in children and adolescents with schizophrenia were not significantly different from those in the healthy children.(2) Compared with the control group, the transverse diameter of the third ventricle was significantly enlarged in children and adolescent with schizophrenia [(4.68±1.41) mm vs.(4.06±1.36) mm, F=8.534, P=0.004], while the distance between the anterior feet of the lateral ventricle, the width of the caudate nucleus head and the thickness of the hippocampus were significantly reduced [(30.69±2.51) mm vs.(32.02±2.41) mm, (8.17±1.01) mm vs.(9.22±1.14) mm, (8.93±0.97) mm vs.(9.93±1.14) mm], and the differences were statistically significant( F=15.435, 40.201, 44.650, all P<0.001). The covariance analysis (with age as the covariant) showed that there was significant difference in the width of the caudate nucleus head between patients with CC genotype and those with CT+ TT genotype[(8.73±0.85) mm vs.(7.39±0.61) mm, F=41.376, P<0.001]. Conclusions:There are multiple brain structural changes in children and adolescents with first-episode schizophrenia.T allele carriers of DISC1 gene rs4658971 locus may be related to the reduced width of the caudate nucleus head in patients.
