Purpose: This study explored the direct and indirect effects of risk factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMDs) in nurses working in intensive care units (ICUs). Methods: A cross-sectional study design was used. ICU nurses from 28 tertiary hospitals in the Hunan and Guangdong provinces participated in a survey conducted via a self-reported online questionnaire. A structural equation model was used to fit the data and to evaluate associations among WRMDs and risk factors. Results: Valid questionnaire samples were submitted by 984 ICU nurses. The prevalence of WRMDs within the previous year among ICU nurses was 96.8%. A valid structural equation model was constructed, and a good fit was shown: Chi-square value/degrees of freedom = 2.248; comparative fit index = .931; normal fit index = .905; goodness-of-fit index = .978; adjusted goodness-of-fit index = .966; and root mean square error of approximation = .036. All regression coefficients for direct effect reached significant levels (critical ratio > 1.96 and p < .05). In the structural equation model, the occurrence of WRMDs was directly affected by the following: physical factors, risk perception, and job stress. Physical factors and a safe environment indirectly affected WRMDs through risk perception and job stress. The strongest correlations with WRMDs were physical factors. Conclusion The model provided a new perspective for understanding the associations among physical factors, workplace safety environment, risk perception, job stress, and WRMDs. To improve the practice setting of the ICU, efforts should be made to help prevent WRMDs from physical, psychosocial, and environmental factors.

[Summary] To explore the therapeutic effect of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for severe psoriasis. A patient, male, 36 years old, diagnosed as severe plaque psoriasis for 10 years and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) for 15 years, was administrated twice FMT via both upper endoscopy and colonoscopy with a 5‐week interval. The following items were used to evaluate responses: body surface area (BSA), psoriasis area and severity index (PASI), dermatology life quality index (DLQI), histological examination, intestinal symptoms, adverse reactions and serum level of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α. After second FMT treatment for 5 weeks, aforementioned items were improved greatly compared with those before treatment. Moreover, IBS was completely relieved and no adverse reactions were observed during the treatment and follow‐up. In conclusion, FMT could be a novel therapy for psoriasis. Further clinical trials are needed to provide solid evidences.

Objective:To study the differences of intestinal flora between neonatal rats with intrauterine hypoxia and healthy neonatal rats using high-throughput sequencing technology to determine the effects of intrauterine hypoxia on neonatal intestinal flora.Methods:Intrauterine hypoxia model were established in neonatal rats. On d1 and d7 after birth, intestinal samples were collected from intrauterine hypoxic group and normal control group and assigned into INH1 group (intrauterine hypoxia d1), INH7 group (intrauterine hypoxia d7), NOR1 group (normal control d1) and NOR7 group (normal control d7). 16S rRNA sequencing were conducted using these samples and the differences in the diversity, richness and composition of the flora among the groups were compared.Results:(1) The Alpha diversity of the intestinal flora in the INH1 group was higher than the NOR1 group. Specifically, both sobs and chao indices, representing the richness of the flora, in INH1 group were significantly higher than the NOR1 group (sobs index: 114.5±35.6 vs. 50.5±21.3, chao index: 135.6±38.5 vs. 73.9±28.8)( P<0.05). Compared with the NOR7 group, the mean values of sobs, ace, chao, simpson and shannon indices in the INH7 group showed no significant differences ( P>0.05). (2) At the phylum and genus level, the dominant bacterial groups in the intrauterine hypoxia group on d1 were firmicutes and streptococcus and proteus and escherichia for the normal control group. The difference of intestinal flora between intrauterine hypoxia group and the normal control group on d7 was smaller than the difference between the two groups on d1. Compared with INH1 group, the INH7 group had increased escherichia composition and decreased streptococcus composition. Conclusions:Intrauterine hypoxia changes the initial colonization and later affects the abundance and structural composition of the intestinal flora in newborn rats.

Objective:To explore the application value of PAX1/JAM3 methylation detection by cervical self-collected specimen in cervical cancer screening and the management of premenopausal and postmenopausal women.Method:This study is a single center cross-sectional study. From January 2023 to November 2023, cervical self-collected and physician-collected specimens at the colposcopy clinic were detected the PAX1/JAM3 methylation (PAX1 m/JAM3 m) testing. The consistency between self-collected and physician-collected specimens for PAX1 m/JAM3 m detection were compared based on histopathology. In addition, the clinical efficacy of methylation detection with high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV), liquid-based cytology (LBC), and their combination for cervical cancer screening were compared in the study. Results:A total of 301 women were recruited to undergo referral colposcopy examination, and statistical analysis was conducted on 272 women with pathological and diagnostic information. Among them, 102 cases (37.5%) were diagnosed as normal cervical tissue or chronic cervicitis, 72 cases (26.4%) were cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 (CIN1), 43 cases (15.8%) were CIN2, 29 cases (10.7%) were CIN3, and 26 cases (9.6%) were cervical cancer. According to the minimum quantity formula, they were divided into a consistency cohort of 81 participants and a validation cohort of 191 participants. The consistency between cervical self-collected and physician-collected specimens for detecting PAX1 m/JAM3 m. Results from spearman correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between the self-collected and physician-collected results of PAX1 m/JAM3 m detection, and the correlation coefficient R values are 0.858 ( P<0.001) and 0.828 ( P<0.001). The sensitivity and specificity of PAX1 m/JAM3 m detection for diagnosing CIN2 or more severe lesions (CIN2+) were 77.6% [95% confidence interval ( CI) 65.3%-86.4%] and 87.2% (95% CI 80.5%-91.9%), respectively. In clinical performance comparison, the sensitivity of PAX1 m/JAM3 m combined with HPV16/18 detection, 89.7% (95% CI 79.2%-95.2%), was the same as that of hrHPV detection in CIN2+and 96.0% (95% CI 80.4%-99.3%) in CIN3+, which is higher than 92.0% (95% CI 75.0%-97.8%) of hrHPV and 82.6% (95% CI 62.9%-93.0%) of LBC or the combination of sPAX1 m/JAM3 m and LBC low-grade and higher squamous intraepithelial lesion testing [87.0% (95% CI 67.9%-95.5%)]. Conclusions:Self-collected specimens by women for detection of PAX1 and JAM3 methylation as a promising screening tool for cervical cancer has operational and clinical feasibility. The methylation test can optimize the current cervical cancer screening plan, reduce the number of referral women with false positive diagnosis to colposcopy, and is of great significance for reducing fertility protection and preventing missed diagnosis in women of childbearing age.

Purpose To investigate the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) in diagnosing prostate cancer among Chinese patients.Materials and Methods A Meta-analysis was performed on papers relating to diagnostic value of MRS and DWI in Chinese patients with prostate cancer for the recently ten years using Review Manager 5.2 and Meta-Disc software.QUADAS was employed to assess the quality of qualified articles based on the calculated sensitivity,specificity,diagnostic odds ratio and area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of MRS and DWI.Results Ten relevant literatures were enrolled.Heterogeneity of sensitivity and specificity was excluded in accordance to results of Meta-analysis,and hence the combination was feasible.The combination results indicated that AUC of ROC for DWI and MRS were 0.8979 and 0.9302,respectively;sensitivity was 0.83 and 0.87,respectively;specificity was 0.84 and 0.86,respectively;DOR was 22.71 and 41.31,respectively.Conclusion MRS is higher than DWI in terms of diagnostic value of prostate cancer as well as its sensitivity and specificity.When prostate cancer is untypical in DWI findings or not clear in its diagnosis,MRI results can be further consulted.This paper investigated the value of DWI and MRS in diagnosing prostate cancer through quantitative system evaluation,providing evidence-based medicine reference for using imaging methods to diagnose prostate cancer.
