Objective To explore the blood level lead and the related high-risk factors in Uigur and Han children in Urumqi by answer tree. Methods Cluster sampling was used to investigate blood lead level of 988 Uigur and Han children aged 6-10 years,the related high-risk factors were investigated by using a standardized questionnaire,the related high-risk of blood lead level was analyzed by answer tree. Results The geometric mean of blood lead concentration of children was 54.46 ?g/L,in 23.28% of the children,the blood lead concentration was more than 100 ?g/L . No significant blood lead level difference was seen between Uigur and Han children. Such high-risk factors as parents occupation,bad habits and housing condition were associated with the blood lead level. Conclusion The blood lead level and lead poisoning rate of children in Urumqi are higher,many factors may influence the blood lead level of children in Urumqi.

Objective To discuss the application indications of emergency thoracotomy (ET) and the surgical strategy in the treatment of chest trauma .Methods The clinical data of 35 chest trauma patients treated by ET from January 2010 to March 2014 were analyzed retrospectively .Results In 35 cases ,the injury severity score (ISS) was 12-65 ,average 31 .63 .23 cases were pene‐trating injuries and 12 cases were blunt injuries .28 cases (80 .00% ) manifest as shock on admission .Blood loss in all cases was 1 000-5 000 mL ,average 2 400 mL and 20 cases were over 3 000 mL .ET was performed in the emergency room (6 cases) and the operative room (29 cases) .The time of admission to surgery in all cases was<30 min .12 cases (34 .29% ) died ,with average ISS score of 48 .26 .The main causes of death were cardiac tamponade and hemorrhagic shock .23 cases (65 .71% ) survived .The surviv‐al rates of penetrating and blunt injury were 78 .26% (18/23) and 41 .67% (5/12) respectively .The occurrence rate of complications in the survivals was 39 .13% (9/23) .Conclusion Massive bleeding ,ventilation dysfunction and cardiac tamponade caused by severe chest trauma are the important indications of ET ;the patient with chest penetrating injury on high‐risk positions should be actively performed the exploratory thoracotomy ;race against time rapid thoracotomy is the key for successful treatment .

Objective To evaluate the effects of combination of dexmedetomidine and mild hypothermia on global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in neonatal rats.Methods Ninety-six neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 6-7 days,weighing 18-22 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=24 each) using a random number table:I/R group,mild hypothermia group (group H),dexmedetomidine group (group D) and combination of dexmedetomidine and mild hypothermia group (group DH).Global cerebral ischemia was induced in rats anaesthetized with chloral hydrate by bilateral common carotid artery clamping (for 15 min) combined with hypotension followed by reperfusion.Dexmedetomidine 75 pg/kg was given intraperitoneally at 30 min before ischemia in D and DH groups,while the equal volume of normal saline was given in I/R and H groups.The temperature in the temporal muscle was maintained at 36.7-37.2℃ in I/R and D groups,and at 34.8-35.3℃ in H and DH groups.At 12,24 and 72 h of reperfusion,8 rats were randomly chosen in each group,and neurological deficit score (NDS) was determined.The animals were then sacrificed,and their brains were removed for determination of myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity (by spectrophotometry) and contents of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in brain tissues (using ELISA).Results Compared with I/R group,the NDS,MPO activity and contents of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly decreased in the other three groups.The NDS,MPO activity and contents of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly lower in DH group than in H or D group.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can optimize cerebral protection providedby mild hypothermia against global cerebral I/R injury through inhibiting inflammatory responses in brain tissues of neonatal rats.

Objective:To analyze the health literacy level among medical staff and its influencing factors.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, the in-service medical staff from four medical institutions (Shanghai Pudong New Area People′s Hospital, Shanghai Pudong New Area Zhoupu Hospital, Shanghai Tenth People′s Hospital Chongming Branch, and Shanghai Jing′an District Zhabei Central Hospital) were administered with a national residents′ health literacy questionnaire uniformly compiled by the China Health Education Center, and an electronic questionnaire independently compiled in combination with professional characteristics of the medical staff. The survey period was January 5-17, 2021. The contents of the questionnaire included basic information regarding gender, age, education, and professional title. Respondents were also asked whether they had chronic diseases, and three aspects of health literacy for basic knowledge and concepts, healthy lifestyle and behavior and health skills covering six other types of health problems including scientific outlook on health, infectious disease prevention and control literacy, chronic disease prevention and control. Safety and first aid literacy, basic medical literacy, health information literacy were also assessed. The total score for the questionnaire was 100 points. Respondents with a score of 80 or more were considered to have a competent health literacy. A total of 870 questionnaires were distributed, excluding incomplete ones, 826 valid questionnaires were used for analysis. Logistic regression was used to analyze factors influencing the health literacy among medical staff.Results:The overall health literacy level of medical staff was 64.0%, with 79.7% of respondents indicating that they had basic knowledge and concepts, 70.8% indicating that they practiced healthy lifestyles and behaviors, and 33.5% showed proficiencies in terms of health skills. From high to low, the health literacy levels for the six types of health problems were safety and first aid literacy (80.5%), scientific outlook on health (76.4%), infectious disease prevention and control literacy (60.2%), chronic disease prevention and control literacy (70.9%), basic medical literacy (52.7%), and health information literacy (50.2%). The results of a multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that physical condition, a lifestyle harmful to one′s health, highest educational background, and a professional title in the previous year were the independent influencing factors related to health literacy ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Levels of health skills, basic medical literacy, and health information literacy among medical staff are low, and physical condition in the previous year, lifestyle, professional title, and education are important factors influencing the level of health literacy among medical staff.

ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of pediatric tuina therapy in treating anorexia nervosa. MethodsTotally 120 children with anorexia nervosa were randomly divided into a tuina group and a medication group， with 60 cases in each group. Sixty healthy children undergoing physical examinations were recruited as the healthy control group. Children in the tuina group received traditional pediatric tuina therapy， while those in the medication group received orally chewed Jianwei Xiaoshi tablets. Each treatment course lasted for 7 days， with a 1-day interval between courses， and a total of 4 courses were administered. Before and after treatment， seven indicators including gastric motility frequency， gastric area， gastric area 30 minutes after drinking， anterior-posterior diameter and area during gastric fundus dilation， anterior-posterior diameter and area during gastric fundus contraction were measured using a color Doppler ultrasound diagnostic instrument in children from the healthy control group， tuina group， and medication group. Additionally， gastric emptying rate at 30 minutes， changes in anterior-posterior diameter and area during gastric fundus contraction， and changes in gastric area were compared. ResultsThis study ultimately included 60 healthy children in the control group， 59 children in the tuina group， and 51 children in the medication group. Compared with the control group at baseline， the gastric area and the anterior-posterior diameter and area during gastric fundus contraction increased， while the gastric emptying rate， gastric motility frequency， and changes in anterior-posterior diameter during gastric fundus contraction decreased in both the tuina group and medication group， with only a decrease in gastric area during gastric fundus contraction observed in the tuina group （P＜0.05）. Compared with baseline， after treatment， the gastric emptying rate， gastric motility frequency， and changes in anterior-posterior diameter and area during gastric fundus contraction increased in the tuina group， while the gastric area and area during gastric fundus contraction decreased 30 minutes after treatment； in the medication group， gastric motility frequency and changes in anterior-posterior diameter during gastric fundus contraction increased， while the area during gastric fundus contraction decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the medication group after treatment， the gastric area decreased 30 minutes after treatment， while the gastric emptying rate and gastric motility frequency increased （P＜0.05）. ConclusionThe possible mechanism of pediatric tuina therapy in treating anorexia nervosa is to promote gastric motility and gastric emptying， thereby improving gastrointestinal dysfunction in children.
