Nurses' Risk Perception of Adverse Events and Its Influencing Factors: A Cross-Sectional Study.

To investigate clinical nurses' perception of adverse event risk and to analyze its influencing factors. A proportional stratified random sampling method was applied to recruit nurses from a hospital in Shiyan City, Hubei Province, China. The Nursing Adverse Event Risk Perception Scale, Organizational Support Questionnaire, Nurse Manager Leadership Behavior Questionnaire, Nursing Safety Behavior Questionnaire, and Burnout scale was used to investigate 1084 nurses. Univariate analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors. The scores of the Nurses' Risk Perception of Adverse Nursing Event Scale, Organizational Support Questionnaire, Nurse Manager Leadership Behavior Questionnaire, Nursing Safety Behavior Questionnaire, and Burnout Scale were 14.98 ± 5.39, 52.57 ± 10.00, 88.98 ± 21.08, 56.42 ± 5.03, 30.90 ± 21.49, respectively. According to the correlation analysis, nurses' perception of adverse nursing events was positively correlated with the sense of organizational support (r = .457, P < .01), head nurses' leadership behavior (r = .348, P < .01), and nurse safety behavior (r = .457, P < .01), and negatively correlated with the level of burnout (r = -.384, P < .01). According to the Regression analysis, nurses' departments (ß = .226, P < .001), daily working hours (ß = 1.122, P < .001), adverse events experience (ß = -1.505, P < .001), organizational support (ß = .105, P < .001), head nurses' leadership behavior (ß = .072, P < .001), and burnout (ß = -.052, P < .001) held an influence on nurses' risk perception of adverse nursing event. These factors explained 42.5% of the total variation. Nurses' risk perception of adverse nursing events needs to be improved. Nursing managers need to strengthen organizational support for nurses, change the leadership behavior of nurse managers, reduce nurses' burnout, improve nurses' risk perception of adverse nursing events, prevent adverse events, and ensure patient safety.

CircABCC1 promotes the development of glioma by sponging miR-591 and modulating high-mobility group A2.

CircABCC1 plays an oncogenic role in diverse malignancies. In this study, we investigated its involvement in glioma. The expression of circABCC1 and miR-591 was detected in glioma tissues and cell lines. Gain- and loss-of-function assays were performed to determine the biological effects of circABCC1, miR-591, and high-mobility group A2 (HMGA2) in glioma cells. The circABCC1-mediated competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory mechanism was explored by bioinformatics and the luciferase reporter assay combined with the biotinylated RNA pulldown assay. The effect of circABCC1 on the tumorigenicity of glioma in vivo was detected by constructing xenografts in nude mice. CircABCC1 was highly expressed, and miR-591 was downregulated in glioma tissues and cells. Suppression of circABCC1 repressed the malignant behaviors of glioma cells and tumor growth. Through the ceRNA mechanism, circABCC1 interacts with miR-591 to regulate the expression of HMGA2. CircABCC1 functions as an oncogene to promote the progression of glioma via the regulation of miR-591/HMGA2 signaling. In summary, as revealed by our study, circABCC1 promotes the expression of HMGA2 via sponging of miR-591, thus affecting glioma progression as an important onco-circRNA.

ATP2B1-AS1 Promotes Cerebral Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury Through Regulating the miR-330-5p/TLR4-MyD88-NF-κB Signaling Pathway.

We aim to explore the expression and function of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) ATP2B1-AS1 in a cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. In this study, we established a middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/IR) rat model and an OGD/R PC12 cell model to evaluate the expression and role of ATP2B1-AS1 in the cerebral I/R injury. We found that the expression of ATP2B1-AS1 was upregulated in both in vitro and in vivo cerebral I/R injury models. Knockdown of ATP2B1-AS1 increased the cell viability, inhibited apoptosis, and decreased the expressions of inflammation cytokines. The target of ATP2B1-AS1 was predicted and validated to be miR-330-5p. MiR-330-5p abrogated the regulatory effect of ATP2B1-AS1 on cell viability, apoptosis, and cytokines of OGD/R PC12 cells. Furthermore, the results showed that miR-330-5p targeted TLR4, which was also upregulated in the infarcted area of MCAO/IR rats and OGD/R PC12 cells. Overexpression of ATP2B1-AS1 increased the expressions of TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB p65 of OGD/R PC12 cells, while the effect of ATP2B1-AS1 was abrogated by miR-330-5p. In addition, knockdown of ATP2B1-AS1 decreased the latency time, increased the time of passing the platform position, reduced the cerebral infarct volume, decreased neurological deficit scores, and reduced the number of damaged neurons of MCAO/IR rats that were subjected to the Morris water maze test. Taken together, our study indicates that ATP2B1-AS1 may be an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of cerebral ischemic injuries.

Nonsuicidal self-injury in undergraduate students with major depressive disorder: The role of psychosocial factors.

BACKGROUND: Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) is related to childhood abuse, family relationships, interpersonal relationships, personality, but the interaction between them is still unclear, and how they interact in major depressive disorder (MDD). METHODS: Collected data from 444 undergraduate degree students with MDD participated. Used the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, Interpersonal Relationship Comprehensive Diagnostic Scale, and Family Assessment Device to assess the patients' psychosocial factors. NSSI behavior was assessed through interviews. Use the Chi-square test, Wilcoxon rank-sum test, Kruskal-Wallis H-test, Distance Correlation, Structural Equation Mode for data analysis. RESULTS: Overall, 34.2% of patients with MDD had a history of NSSI. MDD patients with a history of NSSI had significant differences in psychoticism, neuroticism, emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional neglect, troubles in conversation, ability to make friends and family roles. Among these factors, psychoticism was most related to NSSI, and child abuse, interpersonal relationships and family roles played a variety of roles in mediating the relationship with NSSI. CONCLUSIONS: Psychosocial factors affect the occurrence of NSSI through chain intermediary effects.

Discrepancies between self-rated depression and observed depression severity: The effects of personality and dysfunctional attitudes.

BACKGROUND: Patient self-reports and clinician ratings of depression severity can differ substantially. The aim of the current study was to explore factors associated with discrepancies between depressed patients' Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) self-reports and clinicians' Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD-17) ratings. METHODS: We first computed discrepancy scores defined as the standardized weighted HAMD-17 total score minus the standardized PHQ-9 total score. To assess correlates of inconsistent scores, results of patients with similar standardized scores were removed (i.e., within ½ standard deviation, n = 270). Positive values indicate underreporting (HAMD-17 > PHQ-9), i.e., the underreporting group (n = 200); and negative discrepancy scores indicate overreporting (PHQ-9 > HAMD-17), i.e., the overreporting group (n = 221). We examined the relationship of demographic, dysfunctional attitudes and personality variables to the discrepancies between self and observer rated depression. RESULTS: There were significant differences in extraversion, psychoticism, neuroticism, dysfunctional attitudes and occupation between the underreporting group and the overreporting group (all p < .05). When controlling for potential confounding variables, being a working professional and having high neuroticism and dysfunctional attitudes were significantly associated with overestimating symptoms of depression (e.g., professional: OR, 2.89; 95% CI, 1.67-5.00; p < .001; high neuroticism: OR, 7.08; 95% CI, 1.47-34.08; p < .001;dysfunctional attitudes: OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 1.00-1.02; p = .030). People with average, or high extraversion tended to underestimate scores (average extraversion: OR, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.37-0.95; high extraversion: OR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.24-0.98). CONCLUSIONS: This study is the first to use PHQ-9 and HAMD-17 to explore the discrepancies between self and observer rated depression. Discrepancies occurred between the PHQ-9 score and HAMD-17 score, which were related to neuroticism, extraversion, dysfunctional attitudes and being a working professional. Future research should clarify the relationship between these factors and therapeutic effects of treatments, including adverse outcomes.
