ObjectiveTo understand the infection characteristics of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) in hospitalized patients in a tertiary sentinel hospital in Shanghai, so as to provide an evidence for the development of targeted prevention and control measures. MethodsData of MDROs strains and corresponding medical records of some hospitalized patients in a hospital in Shanghai from 2021 to 2023 were collected, together with an analysis of the basic information, clinical treatment, underlying diseases and sources of sample collection. ResultsA total of 134 strains of MDROs isolated from hospitalized patients in this hospital were collected from 2021 to 2023 , including 63 strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), 57 strains of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB), and 14 strains of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP). Of the 134 strains, 30 strains were found in 2021, 47 strains in 2022 and 57 strains in 2023. The male-to-female ratio of patients was 2.05∶1, with the highest percentage (70.90%) in the age group of 60‒<90 years. The primary diagnosis was mainly respiratory disease, with lung and respiratory tract as the cheif infection sites. There was no statistically significant difference in the distribution of strains between different genders and infection sites (P>0.05). However, the differences in the distribution of strains between different ages and primary diagnosis were statistically significant (P<0.05). Patients who were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), had urinary tract intubation, were not artery or vein intubated, were not on a ventilator, were not using immunosuppresants or hormones, and were not applying radiotherapy or chemotherapy were in the majority. There was no statistically significant difference in the distribution of strains for whether received radiotherapy or chemotherapy or not (P>0.05), while the differences in the distribution of strains with ICU admission history, urinary tract intubation, artery or vein intubation, ventilator use, and immunosuppresants or hormones use or not were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The type of specimen was mainly sputum, the hospitalized ward was mainly comprehensive ICU, the sampling time was mainly in the first quarter throughout the year, the number of underlying diseases was mainly between 1 to 2 kinds, the application of antibiotics ≥4 kinds, and those who didn’t receive any surgery recently accounted for the most. There were statistically significant differences in the distribution of strains between different specimen types, wards occupied and history of ICU stay (P<0.05), but no statistically significant difference in the distribution of strains between different sampling times, number of underlying diseases and types of antibiotics applied (P>0.05). ConclusionThe situation of prevention and control on MDROs in this hospital is still serious. Focus should be placed on high-risk factors’ and infection monitoring and preventive measures should be strengthened to reduce the incidence rate of MDROs infection.

Background Bus drivers are a high-risk group for work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). There are a large number of bus drivers in mega-cities. High volumes of passenger traffic and complexity of road conditions may elevate their risk of WMSDs, but there are few studies related to this group. Objective To investigate the prevalence of WMSDs among bus drivers in a mega-city and to analyze potential influencing factors. Methods Based on cross-sectional study design and self-administered questionnaire, the prevalence of WMSDs in past 12 months were estimated by stratified cluster sampling among bus drivers in a mega-city. Pearson χ² and logistic regression models were used to analyze the influencing factors for the body regions with a high prevalence. Results The overall prevalence of WMSDs in past 12 months among bus drivers in a mega-city was 49.5% (551/1113). The prevalence of WMSDs by body regions ranged from 4.0% to 38.5%, and led by neck pain (38.5%), lower back pain (25.5%), and shoulder pain (20.8%). The results of logistic regression showed that the risk factors for neck pain were age (>50 years), smoking, tiredness after work (moderate, severe), long sitting (frequently), awkward postures (sometimes, often, frequently), overtime(occasionally, often), workplace temperature (uncomfortable), and noise (severe) (OR=2.014、1.577、2.793、3.025、2.708、2.032、3.406、2.746、1.442、2.998、1.456、3.506；P<0.05); the lower back pain risk factors were current work experience (6-10 years, 11-15 years, and 16-20 years), smoking, tiredness after work (moderate, severe), and awkward postures(sometimes, often, frequently)(OR=1.777、2.130、2.400、1.503、2.951、3.364、1.836、4.569、2.786，P<0.05); and the shoulder pain risk factors were age (46-50 years, and >50 years), smoking, tiredness after work (moderate, severe), vehicle type (hybrid power, diesel oil), awkward postures (often, frequently), overtime (often), and workplace temperature (uncomfortable) (OR=1.737、2.357、1.553、2.259、2.489、1.659、3.295、2.777、3.320、2.266、1.426，P<0.05). Identified protective factors for neck and lower back pain were off-duty physical activity (1-2 times per week, and ≥3 times per week) (OR=0.553、0.470、0.586、0.485，P<0.05). Conclusion Nearly half of the bus drivers in the mega-city report symptoms of WMSDs, mainly in the neck, lower back, and shoulders. The prevalence is related to individual and occupational factors, and prevention and intervention measures should be actively taken.

Objective To analyze the evaluation results of health enterprises in Beijing City and their influencing factors. Methods A total of 40 enterprises that passed the health enterprise evaluation in Beijing from 2021 to 2022 were selected as the study subjects using the judgment sampling method. The total evaluation scores and influencing factors were analyzed based on the size, nature, industry classification, and establishment time of the enterprises. Results The total evaluation score of the 40 health enterprises was (553.1±18.4) points. Scores for the primary evaluation indicators, including management organization and system, occupational disease prevention measures, health environment, health promotion measures, prevention measures for occupational stress caused damage, and musculoskeletal injury prevention measures, were (94.0±4.8), (94.0±4.3), (94.5±3.8), (89.7±4.8), (89.6±4.6), and (91.4±5.9) points, respectively. The result of multiple linear regression analysis showed that, large enterprises had higher total evaluation scores than medium enterprises and micro and small enterprises after controlling for confounding factors such as industry classification and establishment time (all P<0.10). The total evaluation scores of private enterprises and foreign-funded enterprises were lower than that of state-owned or state-participated enterprises (all P<0.10). Conclusion Enterprise size and nature are influencing factors for the total evaluation score of health enterprises. It is necessary to enhance resource and policy support for medium-sized, micro and small enterprises and private enterprises to improve the development of the health enterprises.

Objective:To evaluate the quality and item characteristics of the Brief Job Stress Questionnaire (BJSQ) among employees in manufacturing and service industries.Methods:From December 2021 to December 2022, a total of 2077 employees from 4 manufacturing and service enterprises in Beijing were selected by the method of combining purpose sampling and convenience sampling. The Chinese version of BJSQ was used to carry out a survey on occupational stress from 57 items in 4 dimensions including job stress factors, stress response, social support factors and satisfaction. Classical test theory (CTT) was used to analyze the validity and reliability of the questionnaire. The Semejima hierarchical response model in item response theory (IRT) was used to analyze the differentiation a, difficulty coefficient b and information content of each item.Results:Among the 2077 subjects, the age M ( Q1, Q3) was 33 (28, 37) years old, and the working age M ( Q1, Q3) was 4 (2, 8) years. There were 723 (34.8%) people in manufacturing industry and 1354 (65.2%) people in service industry. Eleven common factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 62.823%, the variance of the common factors of each entry ranging from 0.451 to 0.865, and the range of factor loading values from 0.413 to 0.825, with 5 items having cross-loadings. The results of the validation factor analysis showed that the model fit indexes of root means square error of approximation was 0.055, comparative fit index was 0.950, Tucker Lewis index was 0.948, and standardized root mean square was 0.066. Content validity results showed that the total scores of the Chinese version of the BJSQ were positively correlated with the scores of the 4 dimensions ( rs=0.487-0.936, P<0.05) . The results of the reliability analysis showed that the Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the total questionnaire was 0.945, and the Cronbach's alpha coefficients of job stress factors, stress response and social support factors were 0.775, 0.957, and 0.830, respectively. The Spearman-Brown coefficient for the total questionnaire was 0.866, and for the 3 dimensions, it was 0.572, 0.882 and 0.772. The results of IRT analysis showed that only 1 of the 57 items had a differentiation a-value<0.30, the difficulty coefficient b-value of each item ranged from -12.02 to 11.09, of which 8 items had a difficulty coefficient that was too high, 3 items had a difficulty coefficient that was too low, and 3 items did not meet the requirements, and the average amount of information in each item ranged from 0.022 to 2.566, and there were 47 items with average amount of information>0.088 (5/57) . Conclusion:The Chinese version of BJSQ has good reliability and validity in the typical occupational groups of manufacturing and service industries in China, and most of the items have good performance, but some items still need to be further improved and optimized or deleted.

{L-End}Objective To study and develop a suitable scale to identify and assess risks of occupational stress in workplaces of enterprises, and to explore the establishment of a workplace occupational stress risk assessment method aimed at guiding enterprises to improve working conditions based on the electronics industry in Beijing City. {L-End}Methods The initial version of the Workplace Occupational Stress Risk Assessment Scale (WOSRAS) was constructed based on literature review and expert evaluation. A total of 1 284 employees from four electronics enterprises in Beijing City were selected as the research subjects using a convenient sampling method. Item analysis and exploratory factor analysis were used to determine the final items of the scale and test its reliability and validity. The method of percentile norms was used to establish risk assessment method for the electronics industry workplace and its stress sources, and the cut-off values of low, medium, high risk was graded by the 50th and 80th percentiles of the total score and the score of each dimension of the risk assessment scale. {L-End}Results i) Based on item analysis and exploratory factor analysis, a WOSRAS consisting of six dimensions and 23 items was constructed, which could explain 63.2% of the total variation of occupational stress. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the root mean square error of approximation and standardized root mean square residual were both <0.080, and the comparative fit index and Tucker-Lewis index were both >0.900. The total criterion validity of the scale was 0.816. The total Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.835, and the Spearman-Brown coefficient was 0.802. ii) The cut-off values of WOSRAS scores for high, medium and low risk in electronics industry were <53.0, 53.0-60.0 and >60.0,respectively. According to the result, the workplace stress risk levels of the production, research and development, and logistics departments of the electronics industry in Beijing were medium risk, while the management department was low risk. {L-End}Conclusion The WOSRAS constructed in this study has good reliability and validity. The proposed risk assessment method can reflect the actual risk status of enterprises in the electronic industry and is convenient for widespread application.

{L-End}Objective To explore the suitable methods for individual occupational stress examination and evaluation for workers in China based on the electronics industry. {L-End}Methods A total of 1 164 workers from four electronics enterprises in Beijing City were selected as the research subjects using a convenient sampling method. The Occupational Stress Measurement Scale, which was developed based on the Japanese Brief Job Stress Questionnaire, was used to assess the occupational stress of the research subjects, and test the reliability and validity of the scale. Percentile norms and T-score norms were established, and the T-scores of the three dimensions of stress reaction (psychological reaction and physical symptoms), stress factors, and social support were divided into five stages using the normal distribution method with x¯±0.5 s and x¯±1.5 s, which was used to explore a proposed standard for assessing individual stress levels. {L-End}Results The revised scale consisted of 57 items, which could explain 64.0% of the total variation of occupational stress based on the result of item analysis and exploratory factor analysis. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the model fitted well, with root mean square error of approximation of 0.052, standardized root mean square residual of 0.070, comparative fit index of 0.960, and Tucker-Lewis index of 0.958. The Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.951, and the Spearman-Brown coefficient was 0.837. Cronbach's α coefficients of the three dimensions ranged from 0.794 to 0.952, and the Spearman-Brown coefficients ranged from 0.737 to 0.850. The scores of the three dimensions of stress reaction, stress factors, and social support were (49.1±13.0), (44.9±7.7), and (18.1±3.6), respectively. Workers in the electronics industry met one of the following items were identified as the high level of occupational stress individuals: i) a score of stress reaction dimension ≥72.0 points; ii) a sum of stress factor and social support dimension scores ≥81.0 points, and a stress reaction dimension score ≥58.0 points. {L-End}Conclusion The Occupational Stress Measurement Scale and the criteria for determining high level of occupational stress can be used to assess the individual occupational stress levels of workers in the electronics industry in China. This method can provide a theoretical basis for the formulation of occupational stress examination and assessment for Chinese workers.

{L-End}Objective To analyze the current status of occupational stress and its influencing factors among workers in pharmaceutical enterprises in Beijing City. {L-End}Methods A total of 860 employees from six pharmaceutical enterprises in Beijing City were selected as the research subjects using convenience sampling method. The Chinese version of the New Brief Job Stress Questionnaire was used to evaluate the occupational stress, and multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of occupational stress. {L-End}Results The detection rate of high occupational stress was 1.40% (12/860). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that the workers with higher education level and longer length of service had a higher risk of high occupational stress (all P<0.01). Workers who were satisfied with their jobs had a lower risk of high occupational stress than those who were unsatisfied with their jobs (P<0.01). Workers who were satisfied with life had a significantly lower risk of high occupational stress than those who were unsatisfied with life (P<0.01). {L-End}Conclusion The detection rate of high occupational stress in workers of pharmaceutical enterprises is relatively low. Occupational stress is mainly affected by individual factors such as education level and length of service, and work and life satisfaction. Improving job and life satisfaction is helpful to reduce occupational stress level.

Background In the process of greenhouse working, labor intensity is high and repetitive work involves multiple body parts such as limbs, neck, upper back, and lower back. The prevalence and comorbidity of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in greenhouse workers are worthy of attention. Objective This study is conducted to investigate the prevalence and comorbidity, as well as potential influencing factors of WMSDs in greenhouse workers. Methods A total of 722 greenhouse workers were selected as the subjects for a cross-sectional epidemiological survey. Through questionnaire survey and physical examination, basic information of the subjects and the prevalence of WMSDs were collected. The participants were divided into low, medium, and high cumulative exposure groups by cumulative exposure index matrix. Chi-square test was used to analyze the difference of prevalence among different cumulative exposure levels, the correlation between the prevalence of WMSDs in paired sites was calculated as prevalence ratio (PR) by using the log-binomial model, the prevalence of multi-site WMSDs in each group was compared by Wilcoxon rank sum test, and the influencing factors of multi-site WMSDs were evaluated by multi-classification logistic regression model. Results The prevalence rate of WMSDs in the greenhouse workers was 78.7% (568/722). The main affected sites of body were lower back, legs, neck, and shoulders, and associated prevalence rates were 47.6%, 46.0%, 27.1%, and 23.8%, respectively. By constructing a cumulative exposure index matrix, the low, medium, and high cumulative exposure groups contained 121, 196, and 405 workers respectively. The prevalence rates of WMSDs in lower back, legs, or shoulders were significantly different among groups with different exposure levels (P<0.05), and the prevalence rates increased with higher cumulative exposure levels (lower back, \begin{document}${χ} _{{{\rm{trend}}}} ^2$\end{document}=11.144, P<0.05; legs, \begin{document}${χ} _{{{\rm{trend}}}} ^2$\end{document}=6.767, P<0.05; shoulders, \begin{document}${χ} _{{{\rm{trend}}}} ^2$\end{document}=15.666, P<0.05). The results of log-binomial model found that lower back and legs (PR values were 1.57 and 1.43, respectively) as well as neck and shoulders (PR values were 2.00 and 2.07, respectively) among the main affected parts have a strong association with comorbidities. The prevalence of multi-site WMSDs showed that 50.4% of the workers had comorbidity of two or more sites of WMSDs. The results of multi-classification logistic regression analysis indicated that the influencing factors of WMSDs in two sites involved high-level cumulative exposure (OR=2.41, 95%CI: 1.34-4.33) and female (OR=3.27, 95%CI: 2.07-5.16); the influencing factors of WMSDs in three or more sites also included medium-level cumulative exposure (OR=3.78, 95%CI: 1.70-8.39), high-level cumulative exposure (OR=7.34, 95%CI: 3.41-15.80), and female (OR=5.66, 95%CI: 3.48-9.22). Conclusion In this study, the prevalence rates of WMSDs in lower back, legs, neck, and shoulders are high among selected solar greenhouse workers, and WMSDs comorbidity of lower back-legs and neck-shoulders are identified. Greenhouse workers with high cumulative exposure level and female workers report more WMSDs comorbidities in two or more sites.

Background Due to long working time and complex and changeable lighting conditions, greenhouse workers' anisometropia is an issue of concern. Objective This study is conducted to evaluate the relationship between solar greenhouse working and anisometropia of workers. Methods Subjects of a solar greenhouse group and a non-greenhouse group in northwest area of China were selected. Questionnaire survey was used to collect general demographicinformation. Standard Logarithmic Visual Acuity Chart (GB 11533—2011) was used to measure naked eye vision before working, the absolute value of binocular visual acuity difference was calculated and converted into classification variables, and both anisometropia absolute value and classification variables of anisometropia were used as indicators to compare the difference of the two groups. A cumulative exposure index that multiplies exposure time and number of greenhouses was further introduced to evaluate cumulative exposure levels of the greenhouse workers and was used to divide them into low, medium, and high cumulative exposure subgroups. Generalized linear model and logistic regression model were used to analyze possible risk factors associated with anisometropia. Results A total of 1002 subjects were enrolled in this study, including 739 workers in the greenhouse group and 263 workers in the non-greenhouse group. The medians (interquartile intervals) of anisometropia of the greenhouse group and non-greenhouse group were 0.1 (0, 0.2) and 0 (0, 0.1) respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The proportions of anisometropia=0, ≤0.2, and >0.2 in the greenhouse group were 34.2%, 55.2%, and 10.6%, respectively, and those in the non-greenhouse group were 58.2%, 34.6%, and 7.2%, respectively. The difference of anisometropia distribution between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). According to the cumulative exposure index, the greenhouse group was divided into low, medium, and high cumulative exposure subgroups, with 154 (21.0%), 188 (25.6%), and 392 (53.4%) workers, respectively. There was no statistical significance in anisometropia among workers with different cumulative exposure levels (P>0.05). The results of multiple generalized linear analysis showed that greenhouse working was a risk factor of anisometropia (b=0.053, P<0.05), and the results of multiple logistic regression analysis showed that greenhouse working was associated with an increased risk of anisometropia (OR=2.586, 95%CI: 1.473-4.539). The results of multiple generalized linear analysis showed that medium exposure level increased the degree of anisometropia after adjusting age, gender, and other factors (b=0.054, P<0.05). Conclusion Solar greenhouse working may be a risk factor for increasing anisometropia in workers.
