Objective To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on hemodynamics and tra-cheal intubation facility in general anesthetized patients.Methods Forty gynecological patients of se-lective operation under general anesthesia were randomly arranged into 2 groups:group D and group C.With high flow mask oxygen inhalation(5 L/min),dexmedetomidine was intravenously pumped in-to the patients in group D at 0.6μg/kg in 10 minutes while in group C saline were given instead.Both groups were then proceeded with rapid sequence induction (RSI)immediately.The values of MAP, HR,PaO2 and PaCO2 were recorded every minute from pumping start till 15 minutes,the bucking, intubation time and glottis exposure were evaluated as well.Results No significant differences were found in intubation time or glottis exposure between these two groups.After tracheal intubation group D showed higher MAP value than group C at 14,15 minutes,and a lower HR value (P <0.05).Even no significant differences were found in values of SpO2 and PaO2 ,the group D showed less bucking than the group C (P<0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine administration at 0.6μg/kg in RSI can diminish the variation in hemodynamics and facilitate the tracheal intubation by less buc-king,but no affect the oxygen reserve.

Objective:
To investigate the characteristics, temporal trend of silicosis, and provide basis for risk assessment and precise prevention and control of occupational diseases.
Methods:
Using descriptive statistics to analyze the reported cases of silicosis by SPSS 20.0 software. Reported silicosis cases, the constituent ratio, the incidence age and the working age at onset were analyzed by a linear trend test. Analyzing the variation trends of regional, industry, economic type and enterprise scale distributions by the chi-square trend test. Moreover, using Moran's I method for spatial autocorrelation analysis and trend-surface analysis.
Results:
(1) During 2006 to 2015, Guangdong province had reported 1, 428 cases of silicosis, mainly gathered in Foshan, Zhongshan, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, which included 1391 male cases accounting for 97.41%. And the average incidence age was 45 (39, 51) . The average working age of onset was 9 (5.5, 15) . In economic type distribution, the private economy took the main part, accounting for 59.1%. In enterprise scale distribution, it was dominated by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) , accounting for 32.4% and 37.3% respectively. In industry distribution, most cases were gathered in materials and mining industry, accounting for 32.1% and 22.9% respectively. (2) The number of silicosis cases, the incidence age and the working age of onset showed a rising trend (

Objective:To study the clinical manifestations and genetic characteristics of neonatal-onset primary mitochondrial disease (PMD) caused by nuclear gene mutations.Methods:From May 2020 to March 2022, the clinical data, genetic results and follow-up information of neonates with PMD admitted to the Department of Neonatology of our two hospitals were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 4 patients were enrolled, all with hyperlactatemia and metabolic acidosis. In case 1, the fetal cranial MRI showed agenesis of corpus callosum. In case 2, echocardiography after birth indicated hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Whole exome sequencing found the following mutations: EARS2 nuclear gene c.1294C>T and c.971G>T variants, COA6 nuclear gene c.411_412insAAAG variant, ACAD9 nuclear gene c.1278+1G>A and c.895A>T variants, FOXRED1 nuclear gene c.1054C>T and c.3dup variants. Mitochondrial second-generation sequencing and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification showed no abnormalities. Cases 1 and 3 died during the neonatal period. Case 2 died at 2-year-and-2-month of age. Case 4 was followed up to 1 year of age with developmental delay.Conclusions:The main phenotypes of neonatal-onset PMD caused by nuclear gene mutations are hyperlactatemia, refractory metabolic acidosis and cardiomyopathy, which have a poor prognosis. Proactive genetic tests are helpful for early diagnosis.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the application of the autoregressive integrated moving average model( ARIMA model)in predicting incidence of occupational noise-induced deafness( ONID). METHODS: The ARIMA model was established and validated based on the number of new onset ONID cases in Guangdong Province from 2006 to 2015. Then the ARIMA model was used to predict the trend of new onset ONID cases from 2016 to 2020. RESULTS: The number of new ONID cases in Guangdong Province from 2006 to 2015 showed an exponential growth trend. The optimal model fitted with the number of new onset ONID cases from 2006 to 2015 was the ARIMA( 2,2,2) model,which better match the number of new onset ONID cases from 2008 to 2015. According to the ARIMA( 2,2,2) model,the number of new onset ONID cases in Guangdong Province will continue to have a rapidly increasing trend from 2016 to 2020. CONCLUSION: The ARIMA model based on time series matches the time trend of ONID onset,and it can be used for the prediction of ONID incidence trend.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and predict epidemiological trends of occupational chemical poisoning,based on directly reported data during 2006-2015 in Guangdong Province. METHODS: The data of patients with occupational chemical poisoning reported from National Information Surveillance System for Occupational Disease and Occupational Health from 2006 to 2015 in Guangdong Province were collected. The epidemiological characteristics were retrospectively analyzed. The autoregressive integral moving average model( ARIMA model) was established and validated based on the number of the new onset cases and was used to predict the trends of occupational chemical poisoning from 2017 to 2020 in Guangdong Province. RESULTS: From 2006 to 2015,1 288 new cases of occupational chemical poisoning were reported in Guangdong Province,which accounted for 24. 4% of the total number of new cases of occupational diseases in the province( 5 283 cases). Among the new cases,the percentage of acute and chronic poisoning was 21. 7%( 279/1 288) and 78. 3%( 1 009/1 288). There was 74. 7%( 962/1 288) of organic solvent poisoning. Five kinds of new occupational chemical poisoning were found. Most of the new cases were male,accounting for 56. 7%( 729/1 288). They were mainly distributed and concentrated in Pearl River Delta Region,accounting for 95. 9%(1 235/1 288). Shenzhen,Dongguan and Guangzhou were the most three cities which had 425,325 and 209 cases respectively,all of them accounted for 74. 4%( 959/1 288). The new cases of poisoning mainly distributed in medium and small enterprises( 72. 0%),private economic enterprises( 50. 9%) and manufacturing industries(70. 5%). The number of occupational chemical poisoning diseases decreased first,and increased,and the proportion to the total number of occupational diseases in Guangdong Province showed a straight downward trend(P < 0. 01). The median age at diagnosis was 35 years old and the median work year at diagnosis was 2. 0 years,and both of them showed an increasing trend( P < 0. 01). CONCLUSION: Occupational chemical poisoning in Guangdong Province has certain characteristic of crowd aggregation and epidemic trends.
