Effect of social support on psychological adaptation in military freshmen: The mediating effect of resilience / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective:To investigate the relationship between resilience, perceived social support, and adaptability in military freshmen.Methods:A total of 195 freshmen were randomly selected from a military medical university. The Chinese version of Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS), and a self-test questionnaire of college students' psychological adaptability were used to investigate their resilience, perceived social support, and adaptability. SPSS 26.0 was used to perform an independent samples t-test and a Pearson correlation analysis to analyze the differences in these scores between freshmen with different demographic characteristics and the correlation between these scores. By using the PROCESS plug-in, a structural equation model was used to analyze the mediating effect of resilience on the relationship between social support and psychological adaptation, which was further tested using the Bootstrap method. Results:The independent samples t-test showed that females had a significantly higher score of other support than males ( t = -2.05, P = 0.041), and student leaders had significantly higher scores of family support and other support, total score of social support, and score in psychological adaptability than other students (all P<0.05). The correlation analysis showed that there were significant positive correlations between the scores of PSSS and its each item, CD-RISC, and self-test of college students' psychological adaptability (all P<0.05). The structural equation model showed that resilience partially mediated the relationship between social support and psychological adaptation, and the Bootstrap method revealed a significant indirect effect (95%CI: 0.102-0.253). Conclusion:Resilience plays a partial mediating role between perceived social support and adaptability in military freshmen. They should be guided to correctly perceive external support and develop strong resilience.

Association of Family Cohesion and Adaptability with Eating Behaviors of Preschoolers / 中山大学学报(医学科学版)

ObjectiveTo examine the current status of preschoolers' eating behaviors and investigate its correlation with family cohesion and adaptability. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted involving 21，954 preschoolers and their families from Pingshan District， Shenzhen， between September 2021 and December 2021. A general demographic questionnaire， the Chinese version of Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale Ⅱ （FACESⅡ-CV） and Chinese Preschoolers’ Eating Behavior Questionnaire （CPEBQ） were used to collect the relevant information. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the association of family cohesion and adaptability with eating behaviors of preschoolers. ResultsTypes of family cohesion and adaptability were significantly correlated with all the 7 dimensions of preschoolers' eating behaviors， including food fussiness （R2=0.252， F=114.457， P<0.001）， food responsiveness （R2 = 0.111， F =24.973， P<0.001）， eating habit （R2= 0.304， F =139.658， P<0.001）， satiety responsiveness （R2 = 0.259， F =105.332， P<0.001）， external eating （R2 = 0.182， F =50.150， P<0.001）， emotional eating （R2 = 0.234， F =91.084， P<0.001） and initiative eating （R2 = 0.349， F =168.608， P<0.001）. After adjusting for confounding factors， our study showed that types of family cohesion and adaptability were independent predictors of preschoolers' eating behaviors （P<0.05）. ConclusionsTypes of family cohesion and adaptability have a significant predictive effect on the 7 dimensions of preschoolers' eating behaviors. Higher scores of family cohesion and adaptability imply stronger initiative eating ability and less poor dietary behaviors in preschoolers.

The drug resistance of recombinant strain pET32a(+)-OXA-48-BL21(DE3)to Imipenem(IPM),Meropenem(MEM),Ceftriaxone(CRO)and Cefepime(FEP)was detected by disk diffusion method;The adaptability was detected by biofilm formation test and serum resistance test. Mouse alveolar macrophages(MH-S)were infected with pET32a(+)-OXA-48-BL21(DE3),pET32a(+)-BL21(DE3)and E.coli BL21(DE3)strains,respectively. The mRNA transcription levels of TLR2,TLR4 and NF-кB(p65)genes were detected by qRT-PCR method,and the expressions of Interleukin-6(IL-6),IL-10,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)were detected by ELISA. Results The recombinant strain pET32a(+)-OXA-48-BL21(DE3)was constructed correctly as identified by colony PCR and sequencing. The optimum induction conditions were as follows:A_(600)of 0. 3,IPTG final concentration of 0. 6 mmol/L and induction time of 2 h. Compared with pET32a(+)-BL21(DE3)strain,the resistance of recombinant strain pET32a(+)-OXA-48-BL21(DE3)to IPM,MEM,CRO and FEP significantly decreased(t = 7. 14～22. 32,P < 0. 05),the biofilm formed significantly increased(t = 15. 69,P < 0. 05),and the survival rate in serum significantly increased(t = 10. 60,P < 0. 05);The mRNA transcription level of TLR2 gene in MH-S cells infected with pET32a(+)-OXA-48-BL21(DE3)significantly increased 24 h after infection(t = 5. 77,P < 0. 05),while the mRNA transcription level of TLR4 and NF-кB(p65)genes(t = 3. 71～10. 06,P < 0. 05)and the expression level of IL-6 significantly increased 12 and 24 h after infection. Compared with the normal group,the expression of IL-6and TNF-α in MH-S cells infected with pET32a(+)-OXA-48-BL21(DE3)increased significantly at 6,12 and 24 h after infection(t = 7. 90 ～ 13. 44 and 5. 40～6. 32 respectively,each P < 0. 01),while the expression of IL-10 decreased significantly(t = 3. 15～4. 08,each P < 0. 05). There was no significant difference in the expression of TGF-β(t = 0. 013～1. 41,each P > 0. 05). The expression of IL-6 was significantly higher than that in pET32a(+)-BL21(DE3)group at 12 and 24 h after infection(t = 2. 92 and 3. 79 respectively,each P < 0.05) Conclusion Overexpression of OXA-48 can reduce bacterial drug resistance,improve bacterial adaptability and the transcription level of factors related to TLR signaling pathway in host cells,and affect the expression level of downstream cytokines in host cells.

The Effect of Thriving and Workplace Spirituality on Innovative Work Behavior and Career Adaptability Among Railway Employees

Introduction-This research aimed to study the effect of Thriving and Workplace Spirituality on Innovative Work Behavior and Career Adaptability among railway employees (TC) because of the competitive environment they experience. Method- The participants were 105 railway employees between the age of 40-60 years, residing in Mumbai, Maharashtra. The purposive and snowball sampling methods were used for the study. The scales used were - Thriving at work scale (Porath et al,2012), Spirit at work scale (SAW) (Kinjersky, 2013), Innovative work behavior ( Jesson, 2009), Career Adapt Abilities Scale – short form (CAAS- SF) (Maggiori et al, 2012). The data were analyzed using 4 independent ‘t tests’. Results-Thriving had a significant effect on Innovative Work Behavior and Career Adaptability among railway employees. Thus Thriving might act as an advantage in the competitive work environment of TCs. Since Thriving cannot be developed individually as a skill, there is a need to study Workplace Spirituality. Results obtained suggest that there was no significant effect of Workplace Spirituality on Innovative Work Behavior which can be attributed to the Covid-19 situation. Later analysis shows that Workplace Spirituality has a significant effect on Career Adaptability, suggesting that the Workplace Spirituality plays will help in better career adaptability among railway employees. Conclusion- Thriving is considered to be a human aspect of sustainability which is important to produce high performance. Thus if we can enhance Workplace Spirituality for railway employees, they might experience Thriving which will eventually contribute to enhancing IWB and Career Adaptability.

Brazilian scientists: much to learn from the microbial biofilm lifestyle (a resistant, resilient, well-orchestrated, and dynamic organization) / Cientistas brasileiros: muito a aprender com o estilo de vida do biofilme microbiano (uma organização resistente, resiliente, bem orquestrada e dinâmica)

Abstract In the present perspective, some parallels are drawn between a career as a scientist in Brazil and the ability of microorganisms to form a biofilm. Do these connections really exist? Definitely the answer is YES. Over billions of years, microbial biofilms have evolved in order to form a cohesive, well-structured, organized and dynamic community, which is characterized by its resistant/resilient profile to several environmental stressors. Adapting to constant change is a necessary attribute for survival and perpetuation of all live organisms, which are key signatures present in the hereditary molecule. Brazilian scientists are faced with many stressful situations along their journey in academia, which requires constant adaptability, reorganization and, above all, resilience. Can we take some lessons from what we know about the biofilm lifestyle developed by microorganisms? The answer is yes!

Resumo Na perspectiva atual, alguns paralelos são traçados entre a carreira de cientista no Brasil e a capacidade dos microrganismos de formarem biofilme. Essas conexões realmente existem? Definitivamente a resposta é SIM. Ao longo de bilhões de anos, os biofilmes microbianos evoluíram para formar uma comunidade coesa, bem estruturada, organizada e dinâmica, que se caracteriza por seu perfil de resistência/resiliência a diversos estressores ambientais. Adaptar-se a mudanças constantes é um atributo necessário para a sobrevivência e perpetuação de todos os organismos vivos, que são assinaturas-chave presentes na molécula de hereditariedade. Nesse sentido, os cientistas brasileiros se deparam com diversas situações estressantes ao longo de suas trajetórias na academia, exigindo constante adaptabilidade, reorganização e, acima de tudo, resiliência. Podemos tirar algumas lições do que sabemos sobre o estilo de vida do biofilme desenvolvido por microrganismos? A resposta é sim!

Contudo, variações desta eficácia, nunca foram analisadas. Este estudo teve por objetivo avaliar a eficácia daquele em dois anos letivos consecutivos, 2015/16 e 2016/17, período de mudanças governamentais, com impacto nos projetos educativos das escolas. Participaram 2376 alunos/as [1201 (50.5%) rapazes; idade M = 14.53 anos; DP = .836], 1138 do grupo experimental e 816 do grupo de controlo. Respostas à Escala sobre Adaptabilidade, num pré e pós-teste, intervalados sete semanas, foram tratadas por meio da MANOVA. Os resultados indicam que a intervenção atingiu resultados esperados, na confiança e no controlo, em 2016/17. O programa teve efeitos distintos nos dois anos letivos, mais favoráveis no segundo ano. Torna-se necessário considerar os fatores contextuais e do processo da intervenção que possam explicar tais efeitos.

Resumen El programa Eu Pertenço ao Meu Futuro! ("¡Pertenezco a mi futuro!") tiene evidencia de eficacia en la adaptación de los/las estudiantes portugueses/as del 9.º año. Pero todavía no se han estudiado las variaciones de esta eficacia. Este estudio pretende evaluar la eficacia de esta adaptación en dos años escolares consecutivos, 2015/16 y 2016/17, un período de cambios de gobierno con impactos en los proyectos educativos escolares. Participaron 2.376 estudiantes [1.201 (50,5%) niños; edad M = 14,53 años; DE = .836], 1.138 del grupo experimental y 816 del grupo control. Las respuestas a la Escala de Adaptabilidad, en un pre-test y post-test, con un intervalo de siete semanas, se trataron con MANOVA. Los resultados indican que la intervención logró los resultados esperados en confianza y control en el 2016/17. El programa tuvo diferentes efectos en los años escolares, más favorables en el segundo año. Es necesario considerar los factores contextuales y el proceso de intervención que pueden explicar tales efectos.

Chinese National Standards GBZ 98-2020 Health Requirements and Surveillance Specifications for Radiation Worker was published and will replace the current standards GBZ 98-2017 Health Requirements for Radiation Workers and GBZ 235-2011 Specifications for Occupational Health Surveillance for Radiation Workers from May 1 in 2021. The significance of this new National Standards, the background, basic principles, basis of revision of important indicators and the matters needing attention in the application of the standard are described in detail, especially for the medical institutions carrying out occupational health examination requirements, the determination of occupational health examination items, examination method and examination reports, so as to avoid the possible misunderstandings and doubts in using the standards.

Validating the career adapt-ability scale in Mexico and examining the relative importance of career adaptability and employability in career success / Validando a escala de capacidade de adaptação à carreira no México e examinando a importância relativa da adaptabilidade e empregabilidade para o sucesso na carreira / Validación de la escala de adaptabilidad de carrera en México y examen de la importancia relativa de la adaptabilidad de carrera y la empleabilidad para el éxito profesional

Employability and career adaptability are two related constructs that are considered significant factors in career success. Career adaptability is the readiness to cope with current and anticipated career-related tasks, transitions, and changes, whereas employability is the ability to retain or obtain a job in the labor market. This paper presents a Spanish translation of the Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS) and analyses the relative importance of career adaptability and employability in predicting career success (job performance and job satisfaction) in a sample of 160 young Mexican working adults. Our results supported the internal consistency and factor structure of CAAS. Relative weights and commonality analysis indicated that both constructs shared explained outcome variance, but they had different importance in predicting career outcomes. Thus, employability is still relevant despite the rising importance of career adaptability. Career adaptability should be included in employability programs, refining the two concepts into a more parsimonious measure.

Empregabilidade e adaptabilidade na carreira são dois construtos relacionados que são considerados fatores significativos para o sucesso na carreira. Adaptabilidade de carreira é a disposição para lidar com tarefas, transições e mudanças atuais e previstas relacionadas à carreira, enquanto empregabilidade é a capacidade de manter ou obter um emprego no mercado de trabalho. Este artigo apresenta uma tradução para o espanhol da Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS) e analisa a importância relativa da adaptabilidade e empregabilidade na carreira de predizer o sucesso na carreira (desempenho e satisfação no trabalho) em uma amostra de 160 jovens trabalhadores adultos mexicanos. Nossos resultados apoiaram a consistência interna e a estrutura fatorial do CAAS. Pesos relativos e análise de semelhança indicaram que ambos os construtos compartilhavam a variância explicada dos resultados, mas tinham importância diferente na previsão dos resultados da carreira. Assim, a empregabilidade ainda é relevante, apesar da importância crescente da adaptabilidade à carreira. A adaptabilidade de carreira deve ser incluída nos programas de empregabilidade, refinando os dois conceitos em uma medida mais parcimoniosa.

La empleabilidad y la adaptabilidad de carrera son dos constructos relacionados que se consideran factores importantes para el éxito profesional. La adaptabilidad de carrera es la disposición para hacer frente a las tareas, las transiciones y los cambios actuales y previstos relacionados con la carrera, mientras que la empleabilidad es la capacidad de conservar u obtener un empleo en el mercado laboral. Este artículo presenta una traducción al español de la Career Adapt-Abilities Scale (CAAS) y analiza la importancia relativa de la adaptabilidad de carrera y la empleabilidad para predecir el éxito profesional (desempeño y satisfacción laboral) en una muestra de 160 jóvenes adultos trabajadores mexicanos. Nuestros resultados respaldaron la consistencia interna y la estructura factorial de CAAS. Las ponderaciones relativas y el análisis de similitudes indicaron que ambos constructos compartían la varianza explicada de los resultados, pero tenían una importancia diferente en la predicción de los resultados profesionales. Por tanto, la empleabilidad sigue siendo relevante a pesar de la creciente importancia de la adaptabilidad de carrera. La adaptabilidad profesional debe incluirse en los programas de empleabilidad, refinando los dos conceptos en una medida más parsimoniosa.
