Abstract:
To investigate the factors affecting lean non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), so as to provide the reference for the prevention and treatment of lean NAFLD.
Methods:
Individuals who underwent physical examination at Huzhou Central Hospital from January 1, 2023 to March 31, 2024 and had a body mass index (BMI) <23 kg/m2 was selected. Demographic information, lifestyle behaviors, dietary habits and physical examination data were collected through questionnaire surveys. Lean NAFLD was assessed using abdominal ultrasonography combined with BMI. Factors affecting lean NAFLD were analyzed by using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 627 individuals were surveyed, with a mean BMI of (20.83±2.01) kg/m2. There were 349 males (55.66%) and 278 females (44.34%). Lean NAFLD was detected in 74 cases, with a detection rate of 11.80%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified BMI (OR=1.830, 95%CI: 1.165-2.869), gender (male, OR=2.615, 95%CI: 1.402-4.875), triglycerides (OR=3.062, 95%CI: 1.613-5.812), alanine aminotransferase (OR=1.587, 95%CI: 1.106-2.277), vegetable and fruit intake (150-300 g/d, OR=0.416, 95%CI: 0.230-0.752; >300 g/d, OR=0.303, 95%CI: 0.141-0.649), dairy product intake (≥300 mL/d, OR=0.369, 95%CI: 0.195-0.701) and sugared beverage intake (1-250 mL/d, OR=1.601, 95%CI: 1.071-2.393; >250 mL/d, OR=2.438, 95%CI: 1.363-4.354) as factors affecting lean NAFLD.

Objective:
To construct a prediction model for sleep disorders in shift workers of a chemical fiber enterprise, so as to provide the basis for early identification and prevention of sleep disorders in shift workers.
Methods:
Shift workers were sampled from a chemical fiber enterprise in Tongxiang City, Zhejiang Province using a cluster sampling method from August 2022 to July 2024. Demographic information, length of service and average weekly working hours were collected through questionnaire surveys. Depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms and sleep disorders were evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Patient Health Questionnaire and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire, respectively. The shift workers were randomly divided into a training set and a validation set at a ratio of 7∶3. Predictive factors were selected using a multivariable logistic regression model based on the training set, and a nomograph model for prediction of sleep disorders in shift workers was established. The predictive values of the model were evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration curve based on the training set and validation set.
Results:
Totally 673 shift workers were included, with a median age of 32 (interquartile range, 12) years. There were 493 males, accounting for 73.25%. There were 471 (69.99%) workers in the training set and 202 (30.01%) workers in the validation set. There were 274 workers with sleep disorders, accounting for 40.71%. The equation for the prediction model was ln[p/(1-p)]=-8.391+1.906×average weekly working hours+1.822×depressive symptoms+1.667×anxiety symptoms. The area under the ROC curve was 0.769 (95%CI: 0.661-0.835) for the training set and 0.655 (95%CI: 0.593-0.737) for the validation set, and Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed a good fitting effect (both P>0.05).
Conclusion
The nomograph model constructed by average weekly working hours, depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms can be used to predict the risk of sleep disorders in shift workers of a chemical fiber enterprise.

Aim To investigate the inhibitory effects and mechanism of action of isoliensinine (IL) on the proliferation of porcine coronary arterial smooth muscle cells (CASMCs) induced by phenylephrine (Phen) and its mechanisms of action. Methods MTT assay, immunohistochemical method and Western blotting were adopted. Results IL (0.03-3 μmol·L-1) could inhibit the CASMCs proliferation induced by Phen (0.1 μmol·L-1) in a concentration-dependent manner. IL (0.1 μmol·L-1) antagonized Phen-induced overexpression of PDGF-β and bFGF from 0.545±0.026 and 0.47±0.03 to 0.458±0.019 and 0.376±0.017 (P<0.01, P<0.01). IL (0.1 μmol·L-1) also decreased c-fos, c-myc and hsp70 overexpression induced by Phen from 0.57±0.04, 0.44±0.04 and (173±36)% to 0.46±0.05, 0.372±0.021 and (115±35)% respectively (P<0.01, P<0.01, P<0.01). Conclusion IL exerted antiproliferative effect on CASMCs induced by phenylephrine, and its mechanisms were related to decrease the overexpression of growth factors (PDGF-β, bFGF), protooncogene (c-fos, c-myc) and hsp70.
