ABSTRACT
The serum and glucocorticoid inducible protein kinase (SGK) family members share similar structure, substrate specificity and function with AKT and signal downstream of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signalling pathway. They regulate a range of fundamental cellular processes such as cell proliferation and survival, thereby playing an important role in cancer development. This perspective intends to give an overview on the involvement of SGKs (particularly SGK3) in cancer progression, and compares the actions of SGK3 and AKT in cell cycle regulation, oncogenic signalling, and the potential as a therapeutic target for cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the correlation between family cohesion and adaptation and work adaptation in postpartum nurses with second child. Methods There were 155 postpartum nurses with second child collected from 4 hospitals in Chengdu of Sichuan Province between October and December 2017, by convenience sampling. Family Adaptation and Cohesion Evaluation Scale Ⅱ and Questionnaire of Return Adaptation for Postpartum Nurse were used in the investigation. Results The family real cohesion, ideal cohesion and dissatisfaction of coherence were (66.95 ± 8.37), (71.68 ± 6.45), (7.87 ± 5.13) points in this study, which were higher than norms: (63.90 ± 8.00), (68.80 ± 5.30), (6.40 ± 5.00) points, and there were significant differences (t=-3.086,-4.079,-2.403, all P<0.05) . The family real adaptation was (48.86 ± 7.33) points, which was less than norms: (50.90 ± 6.20) points, and there was significant difference (t=2.514, P<0.05). The ideal adaptation had no significant difference with norms (P>0.05). The dissatisfaction of adaptation was (9.36±5.22) points, which was higher than norms: (7.40 ± 5.30) points, and there was significant difference (t=-3.076, P<0.05). There were 24 (15.5%) nurses in extreme type family, 54 (34.8%) in intermediate type and 77 (49.7%) in balance type. The average score of work adaptation was (2.41 ± 0.76) points. The scores of work adaptation in nurses of extreme type family were lowest. Time since working, dissatisfaction of adaptation, dissatisfaction of coherence and hospital level were the influencing factors of work adaptation. Conclusions Nursing managers should face up to the situation of work adaptation in postpartum nurses, humanize their management, pay attention to the emotional state, promptly dispel their bad negative emotions, take measurements to improve the understanding of nurses'families and help them pass the adaptation period of returning to work.
