This study illustrates that nurse managers could provide effective interventions to ameliorate the milieu of respect and autonomy aspect of quality of work life to prevent nurses from leaving their profession.

Capturing the semantic interaction of pairs of words across arguments and proper argument representation are both crucial issues in implicit discourse relation recognition. The current state-ofthe-art represents arguments as distributional vectors that are computed via bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory networks (BiLSTMs), known to have significant model complexity.In contrast, we demonstrate that word-weighted averaging can encode argument representation which can be incorporated with word pair information efficiently. By saving an order of magnitude in parameters and eschewing the recurrent structure, our proposed model achieves equivalent performance, but trains seven times faster.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been implicated in various human malignancies, but the molecular mechanism of lncRNA TINCR ubiquitin domain containing (TINCR) in bladder cancer remains unclear. The present study found that the expression of TINCR was significantly increased in bladder cancer tissues and cell lines, when compared with that in adjacent normal tissues and normal urinary tract epithelial cell line SV-HUC-1, respectively. Moreover, the high expression of TINCR was associated with tumor metastasis and advanced tumor, node, metastasis stage, as well as reduced overall survival rates of patients with bladder cancer. Further investigation revealed that microRNA (miR)-7 was negatively mediated by TINCR in bladder cancer cells. Silencing of TINCR expression significantly increased miR-7 expression and reduced bladder cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion, while knockdown of miR-7 expression reversed the inhibitory effects of TINCR downregulation on bladder cancer cells. mTOR was then identified as a target gene of miR-7 in bladder cancer, and it was demonstrated that overexpression of mTOR reversed the inhibitory effects of miR-7 on bladder cancer cells. In conclusion, this study suggests that TINCR/miR-7/mTOR signaling may be a potential therapeutic target for bladder cancer.
