[The moderating effect analysis of mindfulness on perceived stress and job burnout of medical staff].

Objective: To explore the moderating mechanism of mindfulness on perceived stress and job burnout of medical staff. Methods: From November 2020 to March 2022, 1626 medical staff were investigated by questionnaires. Chinese Version Perceived Stress Scale (CPSS), Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Service Survey (MBI-HSS) and Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) were used to evaluate the perceived stress, three dimensions of job burnout[depersonalization (DP), emotional exhaustion (EE), personal accomplishment (PA) ], and mindfulness level of medical staff. The Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between mindfulness and perceived stress, job burnout of medical staff. And the SPSS PROCESS macro program was used to test the moderating effect of mindfulness on perceived stress and job burnout. Results: Among the 1626 medical staff, 57.38% had perceived stress with health risk (933/1626), and 63.84% (1038/1626) had job burnout, among them, with 618 (38.01%), 274 (16.85%), and 146 (8.98%) experiencing mild, moderate and severe job burnout, respectively. The scores of mindfulness among medical staff were significantly correlated with perceived stress and various dimensions of job burnout (EE, DP and PA) (r(s)=-0.155, -0.351, -0.315, 0.307, P<0.001). Mindfulness had a moderating effect between perceived stress and job burnout, which was achieved through three moderating pathways: perceived stress-mindfulness-EE, perceived stress-mindfulness-DP and perceived stress-mindfulness-PA (ΔR(2)=0.073, 0.06, 0.006, P<0.001) . Conclusion: Medical staff have a high level of job burnout, mindfulness plays a moderating role between perceived stress and job burnout. Specific measures can be taken to improve the level of mindfulness in medical staff, so as to prevent and alleviate job burnout of medical staff.

[Determination of blood hormone levels in patients with "spleen deficiency" syndrome after major operations].

UNLABELLED: The character of "Spleen Deficiency" (SD) Syndrome was evaluated by determination of the blood levels of various gastroenteropancreatic hormones and thyroid hormone. Patients of SD group were diagnosed clinically by Syndrome Differentiation, and those of the normal group were volunteer blood donors. RIA was used to determine all the hormones except T3RUR. RESULTS: TT3, FT3 of the SD group were very significantly lower than that of normal group (P less than 0.001). The levels of rT3 in SD group were significantly higher than normal control (P less than 0.05). For TT4, T3RUR and FT4, there were no significant differences between the two groups. Among the gastroenteropancreatic hormones, gastrin in the SD group was significantly lower than that of the normal group (P less than 0.01), motilin was very significantly higher (P less than 0.002). The value of pp was similar in the two groups, under physiological conditions, however, in adults the hormone tended to increase with age. Since the average age of patients in the SD group was 54.9, and that of the normal group was 38.5, remarkably lower values were seen in the SD group. Other hormones such as VIP, SST, glucagon and insulin were of no significant difference between the two groups. The result showed that thyroid hormone and some of gastroenteric hormones in the blood of patients with SD after major operations were quite different from normal, and was common to patients with general SD Syndrome, with low T3 syndrome.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
