Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is the most aggressive thyroid tumor, with lower morbidity and higher mortality rates. Radical surgery could improve local control and survival rates. Conformal radiotherapy is superior to conventional radiotherapy, which could improve the patients’ quality of life. There are a few chemotherapeutic drugs against ATC, and the outcome of chemotherapy alone is modest. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy can prolong the survival. Targeted therapy brings new hope for refractory patients. Many cancer centers are exploring surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy and other biological treatment of comprehensive application, in order to enhance the curative effect. This article reviewed the foregoing treatments for ATC.

BACKGROUND: BACKGROUND: Studies have found that surface treatment agents containing 10-methacryloyloxy decyl dihydrogen phosphate may be chemical y bonded to the oxide on the surface of zirconia, thereby notably improving the bonding performance of zirconia. OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of Mondbond N and Single bond Universal Adhesive on microtensile bond strength between zirconia and composite resin. METHODS: Sixty pieces of zirconia were randomized into three groups: in group 1, conventional Bis-GMA resin cement was used to bond zironia and composite resin; in group 2, conventional Bis-GMA resin cement was used to bond zironia and composite resin fol owing Mondbond N treatment; in group 3, conventional Bis-GMA resin cement was used to bond zironia and composite resin fol owing surface treatment with Single Bond Universal Adhesive containing 10-methacryloyloxy decyl dihydrogen phosphate. Microtensile bond strength and microstructure on the bonding interface were compared among three groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Microtensile bond strength was significantly higher in the groups 2, 3 than group 1 (P < 0.05), and there was no difference between the two former groups. (2) Scanning electron microscope observation of the bonding interface: before microtensile test, there were more fissures on the bonding interface of group 1; in the group 2, there were a few fissures on the bonding interface that was relatively even; in the group 3, the bonding interface was smooth and continuous with few fissures. After microtensile, cohesive failure and bonding interface failure were mainly seen in the three groups, but there was no simple interface failure in the groups 2 and 3. These findings indicate that Monobond N and Single Bond Universal Adhesive can both improve the bonding strength of zirconia with composite resin.

Objective: To investigate the thyroid functions and influencing factors among radiation workers in Wuhan City, so as to provide insights into occupational health monitoring among radiation workers. Methods : Radiation workers receiving physical examinations in Wuhan Prevention and Treatment Center for Occupational Diseases from January to October 2022 were enrolled, and participants' gender, age, smoking, alcohol consumption, medical history, medication use, types of occupational radiation and work duration were collected. Triiodothyronine (TT3), thyroxine (TT4), free thyroxine (FT4), free triiodothyronine (FT3) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) were measured using a magnetic microparticle-based chemiluminescence immunoassay. Personnel dose equivalent was monitored using thermoluminescent dosimetry, and annual cumulative radiation dose was estimated. Factors affecting thyroid function were identified using a multivariable linear regression model. Results: Totally 978 radiation workers were recruited, with a median age of 32.00 (interquartile range, 10.00) years, and including 782 men (79.96%) and 196 women (20.04%). There were 246 smokers (25.15%), 257 workers with alcohol consumption (26.28%) and 489 with a history of radiation work (50.00%). The median annual cumulative radiation dose was 0.20 (interquartile range, 0.24) mSv. The percentage of abnormal thyroid function was 14.72%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that women (OR=1.925, 95%CI: 1.061-3.490), history of radiation work (OR=2.810, 95%CI: 1.119-7.057) and involving in medical application (OR=1.915, 95%CI: 1.101-3.332) were associated with abnormal thyroid function. Conclusions The percentage of abnormal thyroid function was 14.72% among radiation workers in Wuhan City. History of exposure to ionizing radiation, types of occupational radiation and gender were main factors affecting thyroid function.

Objective To investigate the prevalence rate of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in Xiangya Hospital,and provide reference for preventing and controlling HAI.Methods The cross sectional surveys on preva-lence rates of HAI,cross-sectional antimicrobial use,and bacterial detection among all hospitalized patients on the given days in 2000-2014 (except 2006)were carried out by combination of bedside investigation and medical record reviewing.Results The prevalence rates of HAI in 2000-2014 decreased from 6.30% to 3.91%,difference was statistically significant (χ2 = 35.14,P < 0.001 );prevalence rates of community-associated infection(CAI)were 15.61%-15.76%,there was no significant difference among each year.General intensive care unit (ICU)had the highest prevalence rate;respiratory tract was the most common site of both HAI and CAI;urinary catheterization rate showed a decreased tendency,arteriovenous catheterization rate showed a increased tendency,difference were both significant(χ2 = 5.21,96.24,respectively,both P <0.001).In 2008 - 2014,pathogenic detection rates for specimens from patients receiving therapeutic antimicrobial agents were 36.37%-44.51%,from patients with HAI were 34.00%-44.99%,detection rate of pathogens causing HAI were 41.57%-68.48%,all showed a increased tendency,difference was significant (χ2 = 22.78,10.03,26.49,respectively,all P < 0.001 ).Gram-negative bacteria were the main pathogens causing infection;both cross sectional and combination antimicrobial usage rates declined (P < 0.05 ).Conclusion Prevention and control of HAI,and antimicrobial management has achieved preliminary success,prevalence rate of HAI and cross sectional antimicrobial usage rate declined obviously,the main pathogen is gram-negative bacteria,and the major infection site is lower respiratory tract.

Objective To investigate the relationship between occupational noise exposure and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, as well as prediabetes diagnosed by HbA1c. Methods A total of 1 181 workers from a cigarette factory were selected as the research subjects using a judgment sampling method. Workers were divided into control, low-level noise exposure and high-level noise exposure groups, consisting of 236, 359, and 586 individuals, respectively. The blood sample was collected for HbA1c test and occupation noise exposure intensity in workplace was detected by an area-sampling method. Results There were no statistical significant differences in HbA1c levels and prediabetes prevalence among the three groups of workers (all P>0.05). After adjusting for potential confounding factors such as years of service, gender, smoking, pack-years of smoking, alcohol consumption, and body mass index, multiple linear regression analysis showed that the high-level noise exposure group had higher HbA1c level than the control group (P<0.05). Multivariable logistic regression analysis results showed that the high-level noise exposure group had higher risk of prediabetes compared with the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Occupational noise exposure could be a risk factor for the increased HbA1c levels and prediabetes incidence among the occupational population. More attention should be paid to the effects of occupational noise exposure on the HbA1c level in occupational health surveillance.

Objective: To investigate the effects of two anesthetic modes on cognitive function in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic cervical cancer resection. Methods: From August 2016 to April 2018, 60 elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic cervical cancer resection in the General Hospital of Armed Police were divided into control groupand observation group according to odd and even of bed number, with 30caese in each group.Intravenous anesthesia was used in the control group, and intravenous anesthesia combined with inhalation anesthesia was used in the observation group.The anesthetic effect, MMSE score, MoCA score and the incidence of cognitive dysfunction were compared between the two groups. Results: The anesthesia effect time, extubation time and recovery time of the observation group were (1.62±0.30)min, (15.68±3.26)min, (8.69±3.68)min, respectively, which were significantly shorter than those of the control group[(4.68±0.91)min, (27.46±4.03)min, (20.36±4.58)min](all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in MMSE score and MoCA score between the two groups before operation (all P<0.05), and there was statistically significant difference in MMSE score between the two groups at 2 h and 6 h after operation (all P<0.05). The MMSE score in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(all P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference on the 1st day after operation (P>0.05). At 2 h, 6 h, 1 d after operation, the MoCA scores in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The incidence of cognitive dysfunction in the observation group was 6.67%(2/30), which was significantly lower than 26.67%(8/30) in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with intravenous anesthesia alone, intravenous anesthesia combined with inhalation anesthesia for elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic cervical cancer resection has a good anesthetic effect and can reduce the incidence of cognitive dysfunction, which is worthy of further application in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the effect of lead exposure on blood pressure of lead workers. Methods A total of 665 lead workers from some lead-acid battery enterprises in Wuhan were selected as the lead exposure group, and 708 ordinary workers without lead exposure were selected as the control group. The blood pressure in the workers of both groups was measured. The blood lead concentrations were measured in the lead-exposed group. The independent samples t-test was used to compare the blood pressure between the two groups. Linear regression model was used to analyze the relationship between the blood lead concentration and the blood pressure in the lead-exposed group. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between the risk of hypertension and blood lead concentration in lead-exposed group. Results The mean values of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and pulse in the lead exposure group were significantly higher than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in pulse pressure difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Linear regression analysis revealed that blood lead concentrations were significantly correlated with both systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the lead exposure group. For each increase of 1μg/L of blood lead concentration in the lead exposure group, the systolic blood pressure of lead workers increased by 0.011 mmHg, and the diastolic blood pressure increased by 0.007 mmHg. Logistic regression analysis found that men in the lead-exposed group had a higher risk of hypertension than women. The older the age and the higher the blood lead concentration, the higher the risk of development of hypertension. Conclusion There is a positive correlation between the blood lead concentration and the systolic and diastolic blood pressure in lead workers. The older the lead worker, the higher the risk of developing high blood pressure. The higher the lead concentration in lead workers, the higher the risk of developing high blood pressure.
