    Abstract Background: The hidden curriculum in baccalaureate nursing programs is a means of moral education. Evaluation of the curriculum by students and faculty can increase awareness of its characteristics, which could be useful for planning and further development.
    Objectives: This study's aim was to translate the Hidden Curriculum Evaluation Scale in Nursing Education (HCES-N) to Chinese, adapt the scale to the Chinese culture and evaluate its validity and reliability in a sample of undergraduate nursing students.
    Design: Psychometric assessment of a tool using two cross-sectional surveys.
    Settings: University-based schools of nursing in seven provinces and cities of China.
    Participants: Undergraduate nursing students in a baccalaureate program.
    Methods: The English version of the HCES-N was translated to Chinese using the Brislin translation model. The test-retest, internal consistency and split-half reliabilities of the HCES-N were examined in a sample of 1016 undergraduate nursing students. Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were conducted to examine the scale's content validity.
    Results: The exploratory factor analysis of the final 44-item HCES-N revealed three common factors and a cumulative variance contribution rate of 73.535%. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis showed that the final 44-item, 3-factor model was adequate for the s cale's structure (Chi-square/df = 6.59, RMSEA = 0.074, SRMR = 0.040, CFI = 0.911 and TLI = 0.905). The results confirmed that the Chinese version of HCES-N had good internal consistency (Cronbach α = 0.945); the scale's split-half-reliability was 0.794 and its test-retest reliability after two weeks was 0.894.
    Conclusion: The Chinese version of the HCES-N has good reliability and validity and it can be used to assess the hidden curriculum in baccalaureate nursing programs.

    Abstract Background: Oxidative stress is considered a possible mechanism of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and depression. This study determined the possible association of serum peroxiredoxin 1 (PRDX1; a key antioxidant enzyme) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) with anxiety and depression symptoms in IBS patients.
    Methods: According to the Rome IV diagnostic criteria, 177 IBS patients from February 2019 to July 2019 were included. Serum levels of PRDX1, BDNF, and TNFα were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Levels of anxiety and depression were assessed with the Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS).
    Results: Compared with normal IBS patients, patients with anxiety and depression symptoms had significantly higher serum PRDX1 (p<0.001; p=0.002) and TNFα (p<0.001; p = 0.002) and significantly lower BDNF (p < 0.001; p = 0.002). Serum PRDX1 (r = 0.659, p < 0.001; r = 0.466, p < 0.001) and TNFα (r = 0.531, p < 0.001; r = 0.449, p < 0.001) were positively correlated with SAS and SDS, respectively, whereas BDNF was negatively correlated with SAS (r = 0.594, p < 0.001) and SDS (r = 0.534, p < 0.001). Multivariable regression analysis revealed that IBS severity, BDNF, and PRDX1 were significant predictors of anxiety. BDNF was also a significant predictor of depression.
    Conclusion: Elevated PRDX1 and decreased BDNF in serum may be closely related to psychological symptoms in IBS. Results of this study suggested that PRDX1 may be an important target for IBS treatment in fighting against intestinal and psychological symptoms.

    Abstract Background: Low-grade inflammation occurs in some patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). However, the exact inflammatory markers of IBS and the relationship of these markers with IBS subtypes and symptoms are poorly defined. Peroxiredoxin 1 (PRDX1) plays an important role in inflammatory responses, including intestinal inflammation. We investigated whether PRDX1 is associated with the diagnosis, subtypes, and symptom severity of IBS.
    Methods: A total of 177 IBS patients and 174 sex- and age-matched healthy controls (HCs) were recruited. The PRDX1 levels in the sera and colonic mucosa of the participants were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and immunohistochemistry. The severity of IBS symptoms was assessed using the IBS Severity Scoring System (SSS) questionnaire.
    Results: The PRDX1 levels in the sera (F = 71.81, P < .001) and colonic mucosa (F = 5.359, P < .001) of postinfectious (PI-IBS) and diarrhea-predominant IBS (IBS-D) groups were significantly higher than those of the other three IBS subtypes and HC group. The PRDX1 level in the serum and colonic mucosa of IBS-D (serum, P < .01, mucosa, P < .001) and PI-IBS (serum, P < .05, mucosa, P < .001) groups with the most severe symptoms was significantly higher than that in the groups with mild and moderate symptoms. Correlation analysis revealed that in patients with IBS-D (P < .001) and PI-IBS (P < .05), the levels of PRDX1 and TNF-α in sera had a significant positive correlation with IBS-SSS.
    Conclusion: Elevated PRDX1 in the serum and colon mucosa may be closely related to the progression of IBS (especially IBS-D and PI-IBS) and the expression of gastrointestinal symptoms.
