Objective:To investigate atrial fibrillation patients′illness perception during the blanking period after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) and to analyze its influencing factors, so as to provide a reference for improving patients′cognition of the disease and speeding up the rehabilitation process.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. Convenience sampling method was adopted to select 320 patients with atrial fibrillation who were reexamined in the outpatient department during the blanking period after PVI from Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from Auguest 2022 to May 2023 as the research subjects. The General Information Questionnaire, the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ), and the Control Attitudes Scale-Revised (CAS-R) were used for on-site investigation.Results:Totally 320 patients were included in this study, including 177 males and 143 females, aged (61.64 ± 10.74) years old. The total score of BIPQ was (42.98 ± 10.49) points, the total score of CAS-R was (27.20 ± 5.65) points. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that age, resting heart rate, postoperative course, and perceived control were the influencing factors of illness perception ( F = 25.24, P<0.05). Conclusions:The illness perception of atrial fibrillation patients during the blanking period after PVI needs to be improved urgently. Medical staff should pay more attention to patients with old age, fast resting heart rate, short postoperative course, and low perceived control, and take effective measures to reduce negative illness perception and promote postoperative rehabilitation.

Objective:The result of influenza etiology surveillance in Chuxiong prefecture were analyzed to master the epidemic characteristics of influenza virus and provide scientific basis for influenza prevention and control.Methods:Real-time PCR assay and MDCK cell culture method were used to detect and separate influenza virus nucleic acids from influenza-like cases (ILI) and suspected influenza cases from 2017 to 2022 come from the sentinel hospitals.Results:From 2017 to 2022, a total of 7 302 cases of ILI and 1 079 cases were detected positive, with a positive rate of 14.78%. The positive rate in the six years was 14.71%、15.44%、20.11%、5.04%、10.90% and 21.08%, and the positive rate in 2020 was the lowest. Among them, the positive rate of influenza A was higher than that of influenza B, and higher in spring and winter than in summer and autumn., One H9N2 human infected with avian influenza virus was detected positive.The outbreak cases were mainly influenza B, followed by influenza A H3N2, and students were susceptible to it. The proportion of influenza-like cases in the 0~5 year old group was the highest (64.16%), and the protortion in 60~year old group was the lowest (0.05%).Conclusions:From 2017 to 2022, influenza A was predominant in Chuxiong prefecture, with high prevalence in winter and spring. The influenza strains presented diversity and each strain circulated alternately. The implementation of COVID-19 prevention and control measures can effectively reduce the infection rate of influenza virus .In addition, there are human cases of avian influenza infection in Chuxiong prefecture. So the surveillance of influenza-like cases should be strengthened an improved, and to expand the monitoring of human and avian influenza.

Therefore, starting from the pathological changes of radiation enteritis, this article reviews the mechanism of the acute and chronic radiation enteritis, hoping to provide clinical reference.

Objective: To evaluate the status of dietary diversity and determinants among school age left behind children. Methods: A total of 501 children aged 9-10 years in Sheyang Mini Cohort Study were enrolled from Sheyang City in Jiangsu Province during 2019. A questionnaires survey was administrated to collect left behind and socioeconomic information. Twenty four hour dietary recall survey was conducted, dietary diversity score (DDS 10 and DDS) and food variety score (FVS) were computed according to Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Weight and height of children were measured and sex and age standardized body mass index was used to define obesity. Multivariable regression models were preformed to explore the determinants of dietary diversity in school age left behind children. Results: The proportion of left behind children was 40.9%. The mean value and standard deviation of three kinds of dietary diversity score (DDS 10 , DDS, FVS) in left behind children were (5.69±1.31)(6.55±1.44) and (13.48± 4.23 ), respectively. All of these were lower than that in non left behind children (DDS 10 :5.99±1.29; DDS:6.79±1.40; FVS:14.15±4.22). Significant difference in DDS 10 between left behind and non left behind children was observed ( P =0.01). The results of multivariable regression demonstrated that gender, passive smoking, family education level and family economic status were related to dietary diversity scores ( P <0.05). Conclusion Dietary diversity in school age left behind children was not optimistic and gender, passive smoking, parental education level, family economic status and left behind situation play a critical role in dietary diversity among these children.

Objective: To analyze the impact of persistent obesity on their lung function, so as to offer insights for implementing intervention measures to increase lung function in obese school age children. Methods: A total of 335 children from the Sheyang Mini Birth Cohort established in 2009 in Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province, who participated in the follow up at the ages of 7 years (2016) and 10 years (2019), were selected as the study participants. Physical measurements including height, weight, and lung function were recorded. According to the World Health Organization standard, that is, gender and age specific to correct the body mass index to calculate the body mass index Z score, was used to evaluate the obesity status of children at the age of 7 and 10. Children were divided into four groups, including sustained non obesity group, restored obesity group, newly classified obesity group, and persistent obesity group. Meanwhile, the lung function prediction equations recommended by the Global Lung Function Initiative were used to standardize the lung function indexes of children. Pulmonary function differences among these groups were examined, and the relationship between childhood obesity and pulmonary function was longitudinally analyzed using generalized estimating equations. Results: The prevalence of obesity were 9.0% and 16.1% at the age of 7 and 10 years, respectively. The proportion of both newly classified and persistent obesity group were 8.1%, respectively. The forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV 1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) were (1 269.90±202.70) and (1 415.70±230.00) mL, respectively, at the age of 7 years. FEV 1 and FVC at the age of 10 years were (1 440.80±403.20) and (1 555.60±517.60) mL, respectively. Cross sectional analysis at age 7 showed that forced expiratory flow at 75% vital capacity (FEF 75 ) ( β=-0.52, 95%CI =-0.96--0.07) and maximal mid expiratary flow (MMEF) ( β=-0.45, 95%CI =-0.89--0.00) were significantly lower in obese children compared to their non obese peers ( P < 0.05). Longitudinal analysis indicated that obese children had lower levels of lung pulmonary function, with a statistically significant difference in FEV 1 ( β=-0.44, 95%CI=-0.85--0.02, P <0.05). There was no significant difference among the various obesity groups ( P >0.05), while gender stratified results revealed significant reductions in FEV 1/FVC in newly classified obese girls at age 10 years ( β=-1.76, 95%CI =-3.13--0.38) and in MMEF in persistently obese girls at age 10 years ( β=-1.44, 95%CI = -2.79- -0.09) ( P <0.05). Conclusion Obesity may contribute to reduced lung function levels in school aged children, with newly classified and persistent obesity having more pronounced effects on lung function in girls.

Objective: To explore the functions of DNA-PKcs in cellular low dose hyper-radiosensitivity. Methods: Colony-formation assay was used to detect the survival fractions of M059K and M059J cell lines treated by X-ray irradiation. Micronucleus assay and γ-H2AX foci assay were used to measure the radiation-induced DNA damage. Western blot was used to detect the relative expression levels of phospho-Chk1, total Chk1, phospho-Chk2 and total Chk2 of M059K and M059J cells. Results: The hyper-radiosensitivity was observed in M059K cells irradiated with X-ray of doses lower than 1 Gy. DNA damage levels did not show HRS/IRR in the cell lines we used. pChk1/Chk1 in M059K cells was significantly increased during 20 min to 60 min after 0.2 Gy X-ray irradiation (t=14.157, 13.661, 14.177, 11.317, 14.512, P<0.05); pChk2/Chk2 in M059K cells was markedly increased during 20 min to 50 min after 0.2 Gy X-ray irradiation (t=13.182, 13.868, 14.155, 14.477, P<0.05). Conclusions M059K cells show the phenomenon of low dose hyper-radiosensitivity, which may be related to activation of proteins in G₂/M phase checkpoints regulated by DNA-PKcs.

The core idea of occupational health risk assessment models is to systematically evaluate occupational health risks according to target hazard characteristics and relevant exposure levels of workers. Occupational exposure assessment is based on concentration, frequency, exposure time, and other indicators that indicate actual exposure of workers to occupational hazards, which is a critical component of health risk assessment. However, the accuracy and comparability of assessment results are affected by differences in parameter assignment for exposure assessment across different studies, as well as insufficient emphasis on multiple occupational hazard exposure. This review aimed to explore the assignment and standardization of exposure assessment parameters for occupational health risk assessment modeling, and systematically sorted out the meaning, assignment methods, and sources of exposure assessment related parameters in commonly used occupational health risk assessment models, with the goal of providing researchers with standardized assessment tools to enhance the scientific rigor and practicality of occupational health risk assessments. Considering the individual differences and temporal fluctuations in occupational exposure, it is recommended that researchers should adopt appropriate sampling strategies, reasonably select sample subjects and time based on the division of similar exposure group (SEG), and conduct statistical inference on the obtained data to derive representative exposure parameters. For combined exposure to chemicals with similar toxic effects, the health risk assessment methods are relatively mature. However, the assessment of combined exposure to hazards with different properties and health effects still lacks scientific authority and needs further research and discussion.
