ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the literature knowledge structure and acupoint matching rules of acupuncture for depression.@*METHODS@#The articles regarding acupuncture for depression published from January 1 of 1984 to October 19 of 2020 were searched in CNKI database. CiteSpace5.7.R2 software was used to import the literature data, and the keyword cluster analysis, emergence analysis and time-zone analysis of articles and acupoints were conducted, and the map of scientific knowledge was draw.@*RESULTS@#A total of 3524 articles were included to the knowledge structure analysis, while 601 articles into the acupoint matching rules analysis. There were 13 keyword clusters of acupuncture for depression, with "post-stroke depression" and "electroacupuncture treatment" as high-frequency keywords, and "electroacupuncture treatment" and "Hamilton depression scale" had high centrality, and "electroacupuncture treatment" had the highest emergence intensity. The keywords such as "electroacupuncture treatment" and "Hamilton depression scale", etc. appeared the earliest, followed by "post-stroke depression", "fluoxetine" and "auricular point therapy", etc. According to traditional Chinese medicine theory, acupoint keywords were divided into four clusters: ①core acupoint, ②replenishing-spleen and dispelling phlegm, dispersing-liver and relieving depression, reinforcing @*CONCLUSION@#The main knowledge structure of acupuncture for depression includes five parts: treatment method, depression type, TCM-related diseases, literature type and curative effect index. Clinical acupoint matching should adhere to the principle of "focusing the disease before syndrome" and "combination of disease and syndrome", and treatment should be modified for the syndromes of phlegm stagnation blocking, liver-stagnation and

Objective The present study aims to establish a professional knowledge structure for the family planning technical team at the current stage in Zhejiang Province so as to meet the needs of training and offer reference evidences for specific and effective training. Methods This study applied a stratified cluster sampling method to carry out a self-administered questionnaire which was anonymous and including general survey, the situation of training, as well as the professional skill structure. This questionnaire was designed through the method of literature review and based on the actual situation of the operation. It col-lected the information from 365 family planning technical staffs who were from different levels of plan family service agencies in four cities, which were Hangzhou, Jiaxing, Taizhou, Wenzhou, respectively, from April to June in 2016. Epidata 3.0 software was utilized to record the data and the data was analyzed using SPSS version 20.0. Subsequently, the relationship between the mastery of professional skill and demographic characteristics was researched by students' t test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) test. Results The education background, major and the professional title structure of the family planning technical staffs varied among different areas. At present, it seems that most of the family planning technical staffs have an aspiration to attend training and 97.53% of them wanted to get professional knowledge through training. The result was not satisfactory when surveyed 298 staff for the mastery of knowledge and skills: 3.66% (9/246) for pelvic floor rehabilitation training, 7.42% (19/256) for genetic counseling, 4.9% (12/245) for prena-tal screening, 5.26% (13/247) for screening and prevention of common breast diseases and 6.22% (15/241) for infertility treatment. There was a significant difference (P=0.000) among the different levels of plan family service agency, education background, major, occupation type and professional title in the mastery of professional knowledge and skill. Conclusion It is necessary to improve the training plan and conduct clas-sification and layering training since the knowledge and skills of family planning technical personnel can not meet the needs of reproductive health services at the new period.

ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to describe decision making model of 180 public health nurses in Korea and their knowledge structure for decision making. The differences of decision making models by nurse's knowledge structure were also tested. Research concepts were measured using the instrument based on systemic and interpretive decision making approaches that were developed by Lauri & Salantera (1995). The results were as follows. 1. The public health nurses turned to, most commonly, a mixed practical-theoretical knowledge structure (45.9%), followed by practical knowledge (32%) and theoretical knowledge (22.1%). 2. The six different decision making models were identified. These were named for decision making theories and nursing process. These were client-oriented decision making, rule-oriented systemic decision making, wholistic and intuitive decision making, decision making depending on subjective view and experience, systemic decision making for defining problems, and hypotheticodeductive decision making for defining problems. 3. The public nurses who had practical and practical-theoretical knowledge structure and community health practitioner (CHP) retold that decision making depends on subjective view and experience. Also the public health nurses who had 5~19 years clinical experience represented hypothetico-deductive decision making for defining problems.
