Objective: This study explored whether anxiety and core self-evaluation mediate the relationship between negative life events and depressive symptoms in adolescents of the Yi ethnic minority in China. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, a convenience sample of 627 Yi adolescents 10–19 years old (252 males, 40.2%) from primary, middle and high schools in Liangshan Prefecture in China completed the Adolescent Self-Rating Life Events Checklist (ASLEC) to report on negative life events, the Second Edition of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) to report on depressive symptoms, the Core Self-Evaluations Scale (CSES) to describe core self-evaluation, and the Screen for Child Anxiety-Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED) to report anxiety symptoms. Results: In Pearson correlation analysis, total score and dimension subscores on the ASLEC correlated positively with total score and dimension subscores on the SCARED survey as well as with total score on the BDI. Total ASLEC score and dimension subscores correlated negatively with total CSES score. Mediation analysis indicated that negative life events affected depressive symptoms directly, as well as indirectly via core self-evaluation (mediating effect was 0.087; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.063–0.113; p<0.001). The chain-mediated pathway effect was significant (mediating effect was 0.017; 95% CI, 0.011–0.026; p<0.001). Conclusion Yi adolescents in Liangshan Prefecture show certain prevalence of anxiety and depression, and they score relatively low on core self-evaluation. In this ethnic group, negative life events can affect depressive symptoms directly as well as indirectly through chain-mediated effects of anxiety and core self-evaluation.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the difference of tumor formation in different mouse strains bearing patient-derived xenograft of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC) and establish a better animal model for preclinical study of individualized treatment of ESCC. METHODS: The tumor tissues collected from 22 ESCC patients were used to establish tumor-bearing mouse models in B-NDG (NSG) mice and BALB/c nude mice. The tumor formation rate and tumor formation time were compared between the two mouse models, and HE staining, immunohistochemistry and genome sequencing were carried out to assess the consistency between transplanted tumor tissues in the models and patient-derived tumor tissues. RESULTS: The tumor-bearing models were established successfully in both NSG mice (50%, 11/22) and BALB/c nude mice (18.18%, 4/22). The average tumor formation time was significantly shorter in NSG mice than in BALB/c nude mice (75.95 91.67 days, < 0.001). In both of the mouse models, the transplanted tumors maintained morphological characteristics identical to those of patient-derived ESCC tumors. Genetic analysis showed that the xenografts in NSG mice had a greater genetic similarity to the patients' tumors than those in BALB/c nude mice ( < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Mouse models bearing xenografts of patient-derived ESCC can be successfully established in both NSG mice and BALB/c nude mice, but the models in the former mouse strain can be more reliable.

Objective:To explore the application effect of early warning model of chemotherapy complications in nursing care of non-small cell lung cancer during chemotherapy.Methods:By using convenient sampling method, 106 patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated by chemotherapy in the Thoracic Surgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2016 to February 2019 were selected as the study objects. According to the time of admission, they were divided into the control group ( n=52) and the observation group ( n=54) . The control group was given routine nursing care during chemotherapy, while the observation group was given nursing care through early warning model of chemotherapy complications during chemotherapy. Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) , Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer QLQ-C30 (EORTCQLQ-C30) were used to compare the intervention effect of the two groups, and the incidence of complications during chemotherapy was counted. Results:The total incidence of complications was 26.92% (14/52) in the observation group and 46.15% (24/52) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=4.147, P<0.05) . Three months after the intervention, HAMA (9.87±4.25) and HAMD (15.54±3.58) in the observation group were lower than those in the control group; the differences were statistically significant ( t=4.738, 8.296; P<0.05) . The functional score, symptom score, overall quality of life score and single measurement item score of the observation group were higher than those of the control group with statistical differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:During chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer, nursing through the early warning model of chemotherapy complications can reduce the incidence of chemotherapy complications, alleviate the negative emotions of patients, and improve the quality of life, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective? To explore the effects of grading health education model on self-care behavior and health behavior among elderly bronchiectasis patients outside hospital. Methods? From March 2015 to March 2017, we selected 120 elderly bronchiectasis patients at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University by convenience sampling. All of the patients were divided into control group and observation group with the method of the random number table, 60 cases in each group. Control group carried out routine health education. Observation group received the grading health education model dividing health education into three stages and pushing education content by WeChat;a total of 12 times of health education were implemented. The interventional cycle was three months between two groups. The Appraisal Self-Care Agency Scale-Reviewed (ASAS-R-C) and the Self-Rated Abilities for Health Practices Scale (SRAHP) were used to assess the self-care behavior and health behavior of patients outside hospital. Results? Before intervention, there were no statistical differences in the score of ASAS-R-C and SRAHP (P＞ 0.05). After intervention, the dimension scores of ASAS-R-C, SRAHP and the total score were higher than those before intervention with statistical differences (P＜0.05). After intervention, the scores of self-care goal, self-care skill, the total score of ASAS-R-C, health responsibility, sport management and the total score of SRAHP of intervention group were (25.62±2.18), (24.52±2.41), (74.72±6.27), (24.78±2.75), (25.21±2.16) and (98.35±8.16) higher than those of control group with statistical differences (P＜ 0.05). Conclusions? Grading health education model is propitious for elderly bronchiectasis patients to clear the nursing goal, improve nursing skills, enhance their health responsibility and improve their sport management abilities which is worthy of popularization and application.
