NOP2 facilitates EZH2-mediated epithelial–mesenchymal transition by enhancing EZH2 mRNA stability via m5C methylation in lung cancer progression

NOP2, a member of the NOL1/NOP2/SUN domain (NSUN) family, is responsible for catalyzing the posttranscriptional modification of RNA through 5-methylcytosine (m5C). Dysregulation of m5C modification has been linked to the pathogenesis of various malignant tumors. Herein, we investigated the expression of NOP2 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) tissues and cells, and found that it was significantly upregulated. Moreover, lentivirus-mediated overexpression of NOP2 in vitro resulted in enhanced migration and invasion capabilities of lung cancer cells, while in vivo experiments demonstrated its ability to promote the growth and metastasis of xenograft tumors. In contrast, knockdown of NOP2 effectively inhibited the growth and metastasis of lung cancer cells. RNA-sequencing was conducted to ascertain the downstream targets of NOP2, and the findings revealed a significant upregulation in EZH2 mRNA expression upon overexpression of NOP2. Subsequent validation experiments demonstrated that NOP2 exerted an m5C-dependent influence on the stability of EZH2 mRNA. Additionally, our investigations revealed a co-regulatory relationship between NOP2 and the m5C reader protein ALYREF in modulating the stability of EZH2 mRNA. Notably, the NOP2/EZH2 axis facilitated the malignant phenotype of lung cancer cells by inducing epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, ChIP analysis proved that EZH2 counteracted the impact of NOP2 on the occupancy capacity of EZH2 and H3K27me3 in the promoter regions of E-cadherin, a gene crucial for regulating EMT. In a word, our research highlights the significant role of NOP2 in LUAD and offers novel mechanistic insights into the NOP2/ALYREF/EZH2 axis, which holds promise as a potential target for lung cancer therapy.

Research on Predicting the Status of Returning to Work for Injured Workers Based on the ICF Upper Limb Vocational Ability Assessment System

<i>Objective</i>: To verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the ICF Upper Limb Vocational Ability Assessment System (ULVAAS) in assessing the occupational capacity of patients with upper extremity injuries. <i>Methods</i>: The ICF-ULVAAS tool was applied to assess the work ability of 119 patients and suggestions for returning to work were given. After discharge, their work status was determined through telephone follow-up for 3 months. The evaluated resumption of work suggestions were compared and analyzed with their actual resumption of work status, in order to verify the predictive accuracy of the ULVAAS. <i>Results</i>: The K coefficient of consistency between the predicted return to work suggestion based on the assessment of upper limb occupational ability and the actual work status of the patient after discharge was 0.322 (p<0.001), with an overall accuracy of 85.71%. The consistency between the therapist's advice on resuming work and the patient's actual resumption of work status is not significantly correlated with their educational background and occupational nature. <i>Conclusion</i>: The ULVAAS based on the ICF can effectively assess the vocational ability of patients with hand and upper extremity injuries, and provide appropriate recommendations for returning to work based on the assessment results.

Study on vertical isolation effect of ring springs in single-layer spherical reticulated dome structures

Ring springs have the advantages of simple structure, small space occupation and strong buffering capacity, so a ring spring vertical isolation device (RSVID) is proposed. The structure and working principle of RSVID are explained. In order to apply RSVID to the numerical model of the overall structure, OpenSees is redeveloped and a mechanical model that simulates RSVID is added to its material library. The design goal of this study is to extend the natural vibration period of the isolated structure, which is used to determine the stiffness of ring spring. Subsequently, RSVID and friction pendulum isolation bearings are combined to form a 3D isolation system which is applied to 60-meter span single-layer spherical reticulated domes, and then the numerical model of isolated structure and original structures are established in OpenSees software. The simulation results show that the isolation effect of 3D-isolated structure with RSVID is better than that of horizontal isolated structure.

Shift and Night Work in Technology Intensive Environment as a Health Hazard

Flexible workday arrangement is a common management practice in the modern technology intensive society. The impact of shift work in night hours on human health has been a subject of a broad range of fundamental and applied studies in occupational medicine and in other fields. Epidemiological data and a body of research findings suggest that shift workers are prone to various pathologies. This paper summarizes current views on the link between shift and night work and the risk of chronic noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), which are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among working population and are therefore a top priority. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses present strong evidence that shift workers have a higher risk of malignant tumors (breast cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer), coronary heart disease, and type 2 diabetes compared to daytime-only workers. There are, however, individual differences in the risk of NCDs that may depend on the length of employment and other circumstances. Also, factors are discussed that can modify the impact of shift work on the risk of associated pathologies, such as chronotype, changing length of night shifts, proper shift rotation, sufficient rest between shifts, etc. Mechanisms of genetic regulation of individual circadian rhythms and sleep-wake cycle are a crucial element in the conceptual model of influence of night work on body. Insufficient adaptation and plasticity of the circadian system may cause desynchronization between external time and inner biorhythms in shift workers; this is accompanied with changes in circadian genes expression and may lead to pathologies. If disturbed circadian rhythms are the main factor of etiopathogenesis, the term “circadian-related disease” should be used. Deep understanding of the link between circadian desynchronosis and health problems in shift workers is important to implement ‘circadian safety’ measures, i.e. to protect workers from negative consequences of disturbed individual biorhythms that may affect their work capacities and life quality. This will require standard protocols to study circadian disturbances, standard tools and methods to diagnose circadian rhythms in workers, resolving issues of interpretation in respect of occupational capacity, research on proneness and tolerance of workers to circadian-related problems, finding pharmacological and physical approaches to reduce circadian disturbances, considering special aspects of drug therapy of desynchronosis.

Assessment of quality of life, job insecurity and work ability among nurses, working either under temporary or permanent terms.

Aim of this study was to assess and compare health, quality of life, well-being, job satisfaction and job insecurity between nurses, in a tertiary hospital in Greece, working either under permanent or temporary contract. In this cross-sectional study, consecutively recruited nurses answered a structured questionnaire, the WHO-5 Well-being Index (WHO-5), the Job Insecurity Index (JII), the Work Ability Index (WAI), and the Well-Being at Work Scale (WBWS). Included were 323 nurses (87.6% women, age M±SD 43.68±8.10 years). Tem- porary contract employees had worse quality of life (p = 0.009) and higher job insecurity: both in cognitive dimension (p = 0.013) and emotional dimension (p < 0.001). They also scored worse in the positive affect (p < 0.001), negative affect (p = 0.002) and fulfillment of expectations in work environment (p < 0.001) domains of the WBWS. Additionally, they reported less frequently occupational accidents and injuries (p = 0.001), muscu - loskeletal disorders of the spine or neck (p = 0.007), cardiovascular (p = 0.017), and gastrointestinal (p = 0.010) disorders, while they reported more frequently mental disorders (p < 0.001). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that temporary work predicted high cognitive (p = 0.010) and emotional (p < 0.001) insecurity, low positive emotions and mood index (p = 0.007), low achievement-fulfillment index (p = 0.047) and high index of negative emotions (p = 0.006), regardless of gender and age. Temporary employment among nurses is associated with a lower sense of job security and well-being, and a higher prevalence of mental disorders, independently of age or gender without a significantly negative effect on their ability to work. Managers, as well as occupational physicians, should recognize the extent of nurses' job insecurity and assess their ability to work, to provide them with the necessary support and to stimulate the sense of occupational security and work capacity, so that they can thrive in their workplace and therefore be more productive and provide high quality healthcare.

Studi Prevalensi dan Faktor Risiko Penyebaran Penyakit Tuberkulosis Paru pada Warga Binaan di Lembaga Pemasyarakatan Kelas IIA Jember

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the single agent causing pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), infects 1.8 billion people, or around one-quarter of the world's total population. In Indonesia, there are an estimated 969,000 cases of pulmonary TB, including 443,235 reported cases. Prison is a high transmission site for pulmonary TB. Prison circumstances, such as high occupancy capacity, inadequate ventilation and nutrition, difficulties accessing health care, inadequate treatment, and weak patient immunity, are some of the variables influencing this. Knowledge on the origins, transmission, preventative strategies, and early diagnosis of pulmonary TB infection is essential for the prisoner in order to change attitudes toward pulmonary TB infection. This study used a descriptive approach to generate a description of the prevalence and risk factors for the spread of pulmonary tuberculosis in the Prison of Jember Class IIA. Based on the WHO-recommended screening technique, 4 male prisoners in the Prison of Jember Class IIA (8.5%) tested positive for pulmonary tuberculosis. There are various aspects that are difficult to include into environmental health standards, particularly infectious diseases like pulmonary tuberculosis, such as the density of people in a single cell room and the construction of the building and the services housed inside it. Policymakers must pay attention to the requirement to create appropriate isolation rooms and, at the very least, satisfy room standards for patients suffering from pulmonary tuberculosis.

Conceptual foundations of a corporate intelligent risk-based system for analysis, prediction and prevention of occupational and work-related health disorders of workers

The relevance of the study is determined by the strategic interests of the Russian Federation dictating the need to achieve a national priority, which is the development of human potential. Given the ongoing reduction in labor force against a background of depopulation processes, finding a solution to the problem seems especially relevant. The purpose of this study is to develop a scientific conceptual framework for an intelligent risk-based innovative system for analysis, prediction and prevention of occupational and work-related health disorders of workers. This will help substantiate keynote sanitary-hygienic and medical-preventive measures aimed at reducing losses in healthy life expectancy and increasing occupational longevity. The main theoretical idea is based on a unique information-intellectual innovative system for analyzing and predicting cause-and-effect relationships between the effects of harmful and hazardous occupational factors and the resulting health problems of workers, occupational diseases included. The developed predictive digital neural network models, trained on retrospective or actual data on working conditions, health status, socioeconomic conditions and lifestyle factors, are the information and analytical basis for carrying out calculations and assessing the evolution of personal and group (occupation, age, and work records) health risks caused by occupational or work-related diseases in workers. This provides solid grounds for making a forecast of a prevented period of reduction in occupational working capacity associated with working conditions, specifically for each examined occupation, age, and work records. Such forecasts are an eligible information basis for developing and making well-grounded managerial decisions including those concerning sanitary, hygienic and medical preventive measures aimed at preserving occupational longevity. This will significantly increase effectiveness of corporate health-preserving policies.

Assessing the Impact of Anthropic Pressures on Aquatic Macroinvertebrates: A Functional Trait Approach in the Irtysh River Watershed.

Little is known about how changes in the biodiversity and functional traits of macroinvertebrates in rivers respond to the responses of anthropic pressures and their driving factors. Macroinvertebrates were sampled at 17 sites in the Irtysh River Basin and classified macroinvertebrates into 10 traits and 38 categories between May and August 2022. Then, we performed R-mode linked to Q-mode (RLQ) analysis and calculated functional richness, evenness, divergence, and Rao's quadratic entropy (RaoQ) for each site and community-weighted means for each trait category. Our results indicated that there were pronounced alterations in species variability in the urban region. Functional divergence indicated fierce competition among species and considerable niche overlap in the urban region. Functional evenness indicated that species abundance distribution and interspecific functional distance were not uniform in the urban region. Functional richness indicated that the urban region was the strongest region in terms of niche occupation, resource utilization, and buffering capacity for environmental fluctuations. Rao's quadratic entropy showed that the trait difference of macroinvertebrates was the largest in all regions, which was caused by the gradient environmental difference. Research has revealed that urbanization significantly influences the evolutionary trajectory of macroinvertebrate fauna, culminating in an upsurge in pollution-tolerant species and a convergence of functional traits. We recommend strengthening the control of urban and industrial pollution and wise planning and management of land and water resources to mitigate the impact of anthropogenic destruction on habitat fragmentation in the Irtysh River Basin.

Relationship between Racial Diversity in Medical Staff and Hospital Operational Efficiency: An Empirical Study of 3870 U.S. Hospitals.

Demand for foreign nurses and medical staff is rapidly increasing due to the severe labor shortage in U.S. hospitals triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, empirical studies on the effect of the racial diversity of medical staff on hospital operations are still lacking. This research gap is thus investigated based on the foreign medical staff working in 3870 U.S. hospitals. Results show that workforce racial diversity has a significantly positive relationship with hospital operational efficiency regarding occupancy rate, manpower productivity, capacity productivity, and case mix index. Notably, this study empirically supports that increasing the ratio of foreign nurses positively affects the overall operational efficiency of hospitals. In addition, the study results also indicate that the hospital location, size, ownership, and teaching status act as significant control variables for the relationship between racial diversity and hospital efficiency. These results imply that hospitals with these specific operating conditions need to pay more attention to racial diversity in the workplace, as they are structurally more sensitive to the relationship between racial diversity and operational efficiency. In short, the findings of this study suggest that hospital efficiency can be operationally improved by implementing workforce ethnic diversity. For this reason, hospital stakeholders and healthcare policymakers are expected to benefit from this study's findings. Above all, the results of this study imply that if an organization adapts to extreme external environmental changes (e.g., the COVID-19 pandemic) through appropriate organizational restructuring (i.e., expanding the workforce racial diversity by hiring foreign medical staff), the organization can gain a competitive advantage, a claim that is supported by contingency theory. Further, investors are increasingly interested in ESG, especially companies that embody ethical and socially conscious workplaces, including a diverse and inclusive workforce. Thereby, seeking racial diversity in the workforce is now seen as a fundamental benchmark for organizational behavior that predicts successful ESG business practices, a claim that is supported by stakeholder theory. Therefore, in conclusion, the findings of this study suggest that workforce racial diversity is no longer an optional consideration but should be considered as one of the essential determinants of competitive advantage in organizations, particularly in the healthcare sector.

Prediction of rehospitalization and mortality risks for skilled nursing facilities using a dimension reduction approach

BackgroundHospitals are incentivized to reduce rehospitalization rates, creating an emphasis on skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) for post-hospital discharge. How rehospitalization rates vary depending on patient and SNF characteristics is not well understood, in part because these characteristics are high-dimensional. We sought to estimate rehospitalization and mortality risks by patient and skilled nursing facility (SNF) leveraging high-dimensional characteristics.MethodsUsing 1,060,337 discharges from 13,708 SNFs of Medicare patients residing or visiting a provider in Wisconsin, Iowa, and Illinois, factor analysis was performed to reduce the number of patient and SNF characteristics. K-means clustering was applied to SNF factors to categorize SNFs into groups. Rehospitalization and mortality risks within 60 days of discharge was estimated by SNF group for various values of patient factors.ResultsPatient and SNF characteristics (616 in total) were reduced to 12 patient factors and 4 SNF groups. Patient factors reflected broad conditions. SNF groups differed in beds and staff capacity, off-site services, and physical and occupational therapy capacity; and in mortality and rehospitalization rates for some patients. Patients with cardiac, orthopedic, and neuropsychiatric conditions are associated with better outcomes when assigned to SNFs with greater on-site capacity (i.e. beds, staff, physical and occupational therapy), whereas patients with conditions related to cancer or chronic renal failure are associated with better outcomes when assigned to SNFs with less on-site capacity.ConclusionsRisks of rehospitalization and mortality appear to vary significantly by patient and SNF, with certain SNFs being better suited for some patient conditions over others.

Lesbian convict in women’s prison: a description of rational choice

Same sex behavior does not only occur in society, this behavior also occurs in prisons, include all women's prisons in Indonesia. Conditions in prison for a long time made them interact very often and it was exacerbated by the number of inmates exceeding the occupancy capacity. Previous research, mentioning this theme is still very rarely raised considering that lesbian behavior is considered a taboo behavior to be discussed. Focus this research how the process and dynamics of lesbians in Women's prison. With qualitative methods, and Rational Choice Theory. Data collection techniques through triangulation namely interviews with 8 informants, field observations, and literature studies. This research was conducted in two women's prisons with overcapacity conditions. The results of the study show that the process in prisons is influenced by culture in prisons which greatly influences the occurrence of lesbian behavior. For convicts who before they entered prison were heterosexual and being homosexual in prison was rational choice. There are 2 large groupings of lesbi convicts in prison with their respective processes and dynamics as well as several factors that push them to become lesbi based on profit and loss or rational considerations.

709-P: A Multistakeholder, Longitudinal Perspective on the Perceived Impact of a Diabetes Intervention for South Asians in New York

Multi-stakeholder community-clinical linkage models hold the potential to address the significant diabetes burden faced by South Asians in the US. This study longitudinally evaluates stakeholders’ perspectives on the implementation of a diabetes management and prevention intervention among South Asians in NYC. Participating intervention stakeholders were interviewed annually (2019-2022) on their experience of the intervention's implementation (79 interviews). Stakeholders included 5 research personnel, 8 CHWs, 8 CBO partners, and 18 primary care providers/staff. Qualitative coding was informed by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR); our analysis focuses on the types of perceived benefits for participants/stakeholders. Along with observing changes related to interventional targets (weight/A1C reduction), CHWs expressed that the intervention structure helped facilitate referrals to social services (e.g., health insurance, financial assistance) and address secondary health concerns (e.g., mental health). Participant occupation, family structure, and technological capacity were reported as mediators in the intervention's perceived impact. Providers/staff (particularly from smaller, less-resourced clinics) emphasized improvements in patients’ health literacy and self-efficacy as important gaps addressed by the intervention. CBO partners highlighted that intervention participation helped develop strong collaborations with academic partners (which helped them secure additional resources) and other CBOs. Research personnel reported that stakeholder perceptions of the intervention's importance increased as greater participant health impact was observed. Findings suggest that community-clinical linkage models can provide multi-faceted benefits to both participants and stakeholders by holistically supporting participant health needs and facilitating strong partnerships.

Empowerment of Class IIA Prison Jember in Participatory Actions to Achieve Pulmonary Tuberculosis Elimination by 2030

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the single agent causing pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), infects 1.8 billion people, or around one-quarter of the world's total population. In Indonesia, there are an estimated 969,000 cases of pulmonary TB, including 443,235 reported cases. Prison is a high transmission site for pulmonary TB. Prison circumstances, such as high occupancy capacity, inadequate ventilation and nutrition, difficulties accessing health care, inadequate treatment, and weak patient immunity, are some of the variables influencing this. Knowledge on the origins, transmission, preventative strategies, and early diagnosis of pulmonary TB infection is essential for the prisoner in order to change attitudes toward pulmonary TB infection. This Community Service Program intends to expand the prisoner's knowledge about pulmonary TB via 3 stages including preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The target of this program is 47 male prisoners in the Prison of Jember Class IIA. The findings were evaluated after delivering pulmonary TB counseling materials (post test) and revealed an increase in the mean value to 79.6, implying that prisoner's awareness of pulmonary TB increased.

The Association of Bedside Nurse Staffing on Patient Outcomes and Throughput in a Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit

AbstractHealth care throughput is the progression of patients from admission to discharge, limited by bed occupancy and hospital capacity. This study examines heart center throughput, cascading effects of limited beds, transfer delays, and nursing staffing on outcomes utilizing elective surgery cancellation during the initial severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic wave. This study was a retrospective single-center study of staffing, adverse events, and transfers. The study period was January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020 with the SARS-CoV-2 period March to May 2020. There were 2,589 patients, median age 5 months (6 days–4 years), 1,543 (60%) surgical and 1,046 (40%) medical. Mortality was 3.9% (n = 101), median stay 5 days (3–11 days), median 1:1 nurse staffing 40% (33–48%), median occupancy 54% (43–65%) for step-down unit, and 81% (74–85%) for cardiac intensive care unit. Every 10% increase in step-down unit occupancy had a 0.5-day increase in cardiac intensive care unit stay (p = 0.044), 2.1% increase in 2-day readmission (p = 0.023), and 2.6% mortality increase (p &lt; 0.001). Every 10% increase in cardiac intensive care unit occupancy had 3.4% increase in surgical delay (p = 0.016), 6.5% increase in transfer delay (p = 0.020), and a 15% increase in total reported adverse events (p &lt; 0.01). Elective surgery cancellation is associated with reduced high occupancy days (23–10%, p &lt; 0.001), increased 1:1 nursing (34–55%, p &lt; 0.001), decreased transfer delays (19–4%, p = 0.008), and decreased mortality (3.7–1.5%, p = 0.044). In conclusion, Elective surgery cancellation was associated with increased 1:1 nursing and decreased mortality. Increased cardiac step-down unit occupancy was associated with longer cardiac intensive care unit stay, increased transfer, and surgical delays.

Ho Chi Minh’s thoughts on the education of the young Vietnamese generation today

Introduction. Educating the young generation is the future of every nation. President Ho Chi Minh was a philosopher of Vietnam who saw the critical role of educating the young generation to build a strong country. The purpose is to find out suitable educational content and methods, thereby applying it to Vietnamese education to build Vietnamese people to develop comprehensively to meet the requirements of industrialization and modernization and international integration in Vietnam. Study participants and methods. The paper is based on Ho Chi Minh's view on educating young people to clarify educational content and methods. The paper uses materialist dialectics to analyze and explain Ho Chi Minh's thoughts on educating the young Vietnamese generation expressed in his works, articles, and speeches. In addition, the paper uses methods of comparison, analysis and synthesis to clarify the contents and methods of education in Ho Chi Minh's viewpoint. Results. Ho Chi Minh's thought on educating the young Vietnamese. That generation is not only mentioned in the narrow sense of knowledge and academic education; Education is not only limited to schools, between teachers and students, but the contents of Ho Chi Minh's educational thought is very broad and cover many fields. That is the idea of humanistic education, the point of view of educating people in general in terms of ideals, knowledge, health, aesthetics and morality in all social relations to build Vietnamese people to develop comprehensively in terms of physical strength, intelligence, ethics, and personality. These contents car out based on the correct educational method, which is a close combination of theory and practice, a combination of education in school with education in the family and society, and at the same time it arouses and promotes self-discipline in learning and training of the young generation. In general, Ho Chi Minh’s contents and methods of educating the young generation contain many positive and progressive points. That thought shows the dialectic, the mutual influence between elements of the teaching process. Practical significance. In the context of Vietnam's current integration and development, besides the positive effects of the market mechanism, its negative side has also had an increasingly profound influence on the young Vietnamese generation. A large part of the younger generation is still showing limitations in terms of education, professional occupation, physical strength, learning ability, and practical capacity; living passively, lacking the will to practice, lacking dreams and ambitions; being afraid of difficulties and hardships; lacking a sense of responsibility to family, society and to themselves. That is a matter of particular concern. To overcome this situation, it is necessary to deeply research, study and apply President Ho Chi Minh's thought on educating the young generation in order to comprehensively develop the Vietnamese people in general and the young Vietnamese generation in particular. Keywords: education, Ho Chi Minh’s thoughts, teaching methods, the young Vietnamese generation

Implementasi Penerimaan Tahanan Pada Masa Transisi ‎ Menuju Endemi Di Lapas Perempuan Kelas II A Kerobokan

This study discussed the implementation of prison admission during the transitional period towards endemic at Class II A Kerobokan Women's Prison. The situation in different elements of the world community's life, particularly in Indonesia, is gradually improving because the country has entered a transitional stage into endemic status. This condition is one of the factors considered by the government when enacting new policies, such as the Adjustment of Correctional Services by the Ministry of Law and Human Rights of the Republic of Indonesia. The purpose of this study was to examine how prison admission was implemented at Class II A Kerobokan Women's Prison during the transitioning period to endemic. The empirical legal research method was adopted, with a direct approach to the field. In this study, the authors found out that the implementation of prison admission during the transition to endemic period still referred to the Decree of the Director General of Corrections Ministry of Law and Human Rights of the Republic of Indonesia Number: PAS-170.PK.01.01.02 of 2015 concerning Standards for Registration and Classification of Prisoners and Detainees. The prison admission remained in accordance with the Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) contained in the regulation. However, there are several adjustments due to the transition period which has been listed in the Decree of the Director General of Corrections of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights of the Republic of Indonesia Number PAS-04.OT.02.02 of 2023 concerning Adjustments to the Implementation of Correctional Services During the Transitional Period Towards Endemic. Several additional provisions that apply include admission carried out in stages considering the occupancy capacity equipped with rapid or swab letters with non-reactive results, carrying out health screening according to procedures, and continuing to carry out intensive coordination with Law Enforcement Officials, the local Covid-19 Task Force, and stakeholders.

Occupational low back pain prevention capacity of nurses in China: A multicenter cross-sectional study.

Nurses have a high prevalence of occupational low back pain, especially since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has increased the nurses' workloads. It has brought a huge burden on nurses and their professional development. Nurses' occupational low back pain prevention capacity is the logical starting point and core of interventions to prevent its occurrence. To date, there is no study investigating it with a scientific scale. Therefore, a multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted to explore the current status of nurses' capacity in occupational low back pain prevention and its influencing factors in China. Using a two-stage, purposive and convenience mixed sampling method, 1331 nurses from 8 hospitals across 5 provinces (Hubei, Zhejiang, Shandong, Henan, and Sichuan) in the southern, western, northern, and central areas of mainland China were involved in this study. The demographic questionnaire and occupational low back pain prevention behavior questionnaire were used for data collection. The descriptive analysis, univariate analysis, and multiple stepwise linear regression were used for data analysis. The results showed that the occupational low back pain prevention behavior questionnaire score was 89.00 (80.00, 103.00) [M (Q1, Q3)], which indicated that nurses' ability was at a moderate level. Participation in prevention training before, perceived stress at work, and working hours per week were predictors for nurses' occupational low back pain prevention capacity. To improve nurses' prevention ability, nursing managers should organize various training programs, strengthen regulations to reduce nurses' workload and stress, provide a healthy workplace, and offer incentives to motivate nurses.
