Objective To establish a method for simultaneous determination of four high-molecular-weight thiol derivatives (TDs) in workplace air by gas chromatography. Methods The four kinds of vapor-phase macromolecular TDs (1-pentanethiol, 1-hexanethiol, 1-benzyl mercaptan, and n-octanethiol) in the workplace air were collected using the GDH-1 air sampling tubes, desorbed with anhydrous ethanol, separated on a DB-FFAP capillary column, and determined by flame ionization detector. Results The quantitation range of the four TDs was 0.30-207.37 mg/L, with the correlation coefficients greater than 0.999 00. The minimum detection mass concentrations and minimum quantitation mass concentrations were 0.18-0.32 and 0.60-1.05 mg/m³, respectively (both calculated based on the 1.5 L sample and 3.0 mL desorption solvent). The mean desorption efficiencies ranged from 87.07% to 103.59%. The within-run and between-run relative standard deviations were 1.92%-8.22% and 1.89%-8.45%, respectively. The samples can be stored at room temperature or 4 ℃ for three days and up to 7 days at -18 ℃. Conclusion This method is suitable for the simultaneous determination of four vapor-phase TDs in workplace air.

Objective To establish a rapid qualitative analysis method for volatile organic components in chemicals. Methods Headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to qualitatively determine 19 volatile organic components, including benzene, 1,2-dichloroethane, and n-hexane, in chemicals. Different sample amounts, heating temperatures, heating times, and sample volumes were analyzed to assess their effects on detection results and optimize sampling conditions. Results Based on the set chromatography, the optimal sampling process of this method was as follows： 5.0 g sample in a 20.0 mL headspace bottle, incubated at 40 ℃ for 30 minutes in a constant-temperature drying incubator, and a 1.00 mL headspace gas injection. The within-run and between-run relative standard deviations of all components ranged from 0.00% to 21.05% and 0.00% to 33.33%, respectively. The samples stored in sealed glass containers were stable at room temperature for at least 60 days. Conclusion This method offers simplicity, good reproducibility, and stability, making it suitable for rapid qualitative analysis of volatile organic components in chemicals.

Objective To establish a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method for simultaneous determination of six aniline compounds (ADs) in workplace air. Methods GDH-1 air sampling tube was used to collect six co-existing ADs such as aniline, o-toluidine, N-methylaniline, m-methylaniline, p-methylaniline and N,N-dimethylaniline in the vapor and aerosol of workplace air.

Objective:To explore the reoperation rate and risk factors of adjacent segment disease (ASDis) in patients with lumbar degenerative diseases after transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF).Methods:The clinical data of 460 patients who underwent TLIF for lumbar degenerative diseases in our hospital from January 2011 to December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 204 males and 256 females with an age of 54.6±12.6 years (range, 20-85 years). Divided into ASDis group and None ASDis (N-ASDis) group according to the occurrence of ASDis and received surgical treatment. The age of ASDis group was 57.9±12.2 years, with 14 males and 12 females, while the age of N-ASDis group was 54.4±12.5 years, with 188 males and 246 females. Count the reoperation rate of ASDis. Compare the age, body mass index (BMI), comorbidities, surgery-related parameters, length of stay, imaging parameters before and after surgery between the two groups, and use univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis to explore risk factors for ASDis.Results:Among 460 patients who underwent TLIF due to lumbar degenerative diseases, 26 patients developed ASDis and received surgical treatment, the reoperation rate was about 5.7%. Among them, the reoperation rate of ASDis with above Pfirrmann grade III in the adjacent intervertebral disc was about 53.1% (17/32). The average onset time of adjacent segment disease was 76.3±25.0 months (range, 30-111 months). Univariate analysis showed that BMI ( t=3.86, P<0.001), history of hypertension (χ 2=5.30, P=0.021), preoperative adjacent vertebral disc degeneration (χ 2=85.90, P<0.001), preoperative adjacent spinal canal stenosis (χ 2=25.35, P<0.001), and preoperative intervertebral space height of adjacent segments ( t=4.33, P<0.001) were statistically different among patients with or without ASDis. Incorporating the above indicators into the logistic regression model, the analysis results showed that body mass index (BMI) >24.9 kg/m 2 and preoperative adjacent intervertebral disc degeneration ≥III degree were risk factors for ASDis after TLIF. Conclusion:The reoperation rate of ASDis after TLIF in patients with lumbar degenerative disease is about 5.7%. BMI>24.9 kg/m 2 and preoperative adjacent intervertebral disc degeneration ≥III degree are risk factors for ASDis and received surgical treatment after TLIF.

Objective:The study aims to explore the clinical and biological characteristics of patients with non-IgM lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) .Methods:The clinical data of 340 patients with LPL admitted to the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College were collected retrospectively, including 23 cases of the non-IgM LPL and 317 cases of the Waldenstr?m's macroglobulinemia (WM) , from July 1993 to August 2020. The clinical and biological characteristics of the two groups were compared.Results:Among 23 patients with the non-IgM type LPL, two patients secreted monoclonal IgA, 14 patients secreted monoclonal IgG, and seven patients did not secrete monoclonal immunoglobulin. The median age of the non-IgM LPL and WM were both 62 (35-81) years old. Compared with the WM group, the proportion of women (56.5% vs 27.3%, P=0.007) , the proportion of splenomegaly (60.1% vs 43.8%, P=0.100) , and the proportion of extranodal invasion (21.7% vs 12.3%, P=0.672) in non-IgM LPL group were higher. Eighteen patients were tested for MYD88 gene mutation, and the overall mutation rate of MYD88 was 55.6%. In the non-IgM LPL group, a total of 17 patients received treatment, which had a comparable proportion (94.4% vs 92.7%, P=0.488) to the WM group. Sixteen patients were evaluated for efficacy, and the overall remission rate of the first-line treatment was 87.5%. The median follow-up time was 33.9 (3.5-125.1) months, and the median PFS and OS were both not reached. The 3-year PFS and OS rates were 71.4% and 68.9%, respectively. In the WM group, the median PFS was 66.2 months and the median OS was 78.1 months. Compared with the WM group, in the non-IgM group no significant differences in PFS ( P=0.340) and OS ( P=0.544) were seen. Conclusion:The clinical and biological characteristics of the non-IgM LPL and WM patients were similar. However, the proportion of women and extranodal involvement were higher in the non-IgM LPL group. The survival and prognosis of the non-IgM LPL patients were similar to those of the WM patients.

Objective: To analyze the situation of AIDS knowledge and discrimination among freshmen in Chengdu city, and to explore possible effects of AIDS knowledge on discrimination. Methods: A cluster random sampling was employed to investigate 1 053 college students from 11 universities in Chengdu about their HIV/AIDS knowledge and discrimination. The scores of AIDS knowledge and discrimination of students with different characteristics were analyzed, and the influence path of AIDS knowledge on AIDS discrimination were further analyzed based on different peer relationships. Results: The total scores of AIDS knowledge was negatively correlated to AIDS discrimination( r s =-0.13, P <0.01). After adjusting for confounding factors, the total score of AIDS knowledge was associated with the total score of AIDS discrimination( β =-0.12, P <0.01). AIDS knowledge played a role in AIDS discrimination in intimate, general and unfamiliar peer relationships, with standardized path coefficients of -0.20, -0.24 and -0.18 respectively( P <0.01). Conclusion AIDS knowledge are correlated with discrimination among freshmen under different peer relationships. More anti-AIDS discrimination courses should be added to AIDS education to reduce the students’ fear and stigma of HIV/AIDS patients and related risk groups.
