Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT)-based emotional regulation program for mothers of premature infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Methods: The study utilized a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. Seventeen mothers were recruited for the experimental group and 21 mothers for the control group. Data were collected from July 9, 2018, to Oct 12, 2018 from mothers of premature infants in the NICU regarding parental stress, state anxiety, depression, and maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation. The experimental group received eight sessions of the REBT-based emotional regulation program for 3~4 weeks, and the control group only received standard nursing care. Results: Significant differences were found between the two groups in maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation (Z=-3.88, p<.001), stress (Z=-2.76, p=.006), state anxiety (Z=-3.72, p<.001), and postpartum depression(Z=-2.62, p=.009) after the intervention in the experimental group. Conclusion: The REBT-based emotional regulation program for mothers of premature infants was effective for reducing maladaptive cognitive emotion regulation, stress, anxiety, and postpartum depression. Therefore, it may be necessary to provide an REBT-based emotional regulation program for mothers of premature infants in the NICU in clinical practice.

This paper attempt to explore the shape of stress wave propagation of 3-dimensional stress field which in made in the process of the time increment. A finite element program about 3-dimensional stress wave propagation is developed for investigating the changing shape of the stress by the impact load. The finite element program, which is the solution for the 3-dimensional stress wave analysis, based on Galerkin and Newmark-${\beta}$ method at time increment step. The tensile stress and compressive stress become larger with the order of the middle , the upper and the opposite layers when the impact load is applied. In a while the shear stress become larger according to the order of the upper, the middle and the opposite layers when impact load applied.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to investigate nursing students' levels of and relationships between college-related stress, self-efficacy, social support, and interpersonal skills. Methods : This study involved 352 nursing students at K University in B City, each who understood the study's purpose and agreed to participate in the study. The study's data were collected between April 8 and 19, 2019 and were analyzed using the SPSS for Windows 22.0 program based on frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations as well as a t-test, analysis of variance, post-hoc test, and correlation analysis results. The Scheffe test was performed for the post-hoc test, and the Pearson correlation coefficient was employed for the correlation analysis. Results : College-related stress showed statistically significant negative correlations with self-efficacy (r=-.310, p<.001), social support (r=-.312, p<.001), and interpersonal skills (r=-.226, p<.001). However, self-efficacy exhibited statistically significant positive correlations with social support (r=.548, p<.001) and interpersonal skills (r=.524, p<.001), and social support showed a statistically significant positive correlation with interpersonal skills (r=.644, p<.001). Therefore, higher levels of self-efficacy and social support and a lower level of college-related stress result in corresponding higher levels of interpersonal skills. Conclusion : Based on the results of this study, it is necessary to find measures to lower nursing students' college-related stress and increase their self-efficacy and social support, as well as to develop and operate specific intervention programs that can help enhance their interpersonal skills.

Morchella is a genus of fungi with the ability to concentrate Cd both in the fruit-body and mycelium. However, the molecular mechanisms conferring resistance to Cd stress in Morchella are unknown. Here, RNA-based transcriptomic sequencing was used to identify the genes and pathways involved in Cd tolerance in Morchella spongiola. 7444 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by cultivating M. spongiola in media containing 0.15, 0.90, or 1.50 mg/L Cd²⁺. The DEGs were divided into six sub-clusters based on their global expression profiles. GO enrichment analysis indicated that numerous DEGs were associated with catalytic activity, cell cycle control, and the ribosome. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that the main pathways under Cd stress were MAPK signaling, oxidative phosphorylation, pyruvate metabolism, and propanoate metabolism. In addition, several DEGs encoding ion transporters, enzymatic/non-enzymatic antioxidants, and transcription factors were identified. Based on these results, a preliminary gene regulatory network was firstly proposed to illustrate the molecular mechanisms of Cd detoxification in M. spongiola. These results provide valuable insights into the Cd tolerance mechanism of M. spongiola and constitute a robust foundation for further studies on detoxification mechanisms in macrofungi that could potentially lead to the development of new and improved fungal bioremediation strategies.

The global obesity epidemic and the growing elderly population largely contribute to the increasing incidence of type 2 diabetes. Insulin resistance acts as a critical link between the present obesity pandemic and type 2 diabetes. Naturally occurring reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulate intracellular signaling and are kept in balance by the antioxidant system. However, the imbalance between ROS production and antioxidant capacity causes ROS accumulation and induces oxidative stress. Oxidative stress interrupts insulin-mediated intracellular signaling pathways, as supported by studies involving genetic modification of antioxidant enzymes in experimental rodents. In addition, a close association between oxidative stress and insulin resistance has been reported in numerous human studies. However, the controversial results with the use of antioxidants in type 2 diabetes raise the question of whether oxidative stress plays a critical role in insulin resistance. In this review article, we discuss the relevance of oxidative stress to insulin resistance based on genetically modified animal models and human trials.

The purpose of this study was to identify factors affecting college-based stress and develop stress-relieving educational programs. Data were collected from 169 students in G-province, from June 15th to july 15th, 2020. Analysis was done using IBM SPSS 21.0 for frequency, percentage, average, standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and Multiple regression. College-based stress positively correlated with life event, life event importance, interpersonal emotion, and self-control. The most important factor affecting college-based stress was psychological hardiness (β=-.323, p<.001), followed by club activities (β=.237, p<.001), interpersonal conflict (β=.215, p=.001), grade-2 (β=-.203, p=.001), department adaptation (β=.161, p=.010), and age-21 (β=-.149, p=.024). The explanatory power was 44.4% (F=42.43, p<.001). The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data for the development of educational programs for stress reduction at the university level. Therefore, educational programs considering age and grade, using club activities as support systems, and dealing with psychological hardiness and department adaptation are needed.

Objective : This study was aimed to evaluate the anti-starvation stress effect of Liriopis Tuber on mice. Method : The first experiment was done to mice which have a high corticosterone level at a short term starvation. The plasma corticosterone level of each mouse was measured over time at 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours of starvation respectively. The second experiment was done in the two groups(LT A and LT B) of mice which were in famine for 36.5 hours after being administered Liriopis Tuber three times with different doses(LT A: 1.0 g/.kg and LT B: 3.0g/kg) for three days. The plasma corticosterone levels and rectal temperature were measured when a 36.5-hour of starvation period was finished. Results : 1. The corticosterone level in the mice was significantly increased after a 36.5-hour of starvation. (P<0.001). 2. The plasma corticosterone level was decreased significantly in the group of 3.0g/kg, compared to the control group.(P<0.05) 3. The rectal temperature in the groups of 1.0g/kg and 3.0g/kg were increased slightly in both group. But the two groups didn't show significant change. Conclusion: Based on the above results, Liriopis Tuber might have anti-starvation stress effect and it may be used as anti-starvation stress medicine and anti-stress medicine. Conclusion : Based on the above results, Liriopis Tuber might have anti-starvation stress effect and it may be used as anti-starvation stress medicine and anti-stress medicine.
