OBJECTIVE: To explore the influencing factors of low back pain and the relationship of the influence of bad working posture, weight load and frequency of load and the dose-response relationship among the occupational workers of key industries in China. METHODS: A total of 57 501 employees from 15 key industries in China were selected as research subjects using stratified cluster sampling method. The occurrence of low back pain in the past one year, as well as occupational factors such as job type, labor organization and work posture were investigated by using the Chinese version Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire. RESULTS: The prevalence of low back pain in the occupational population of key industries in China was 16.4%(9 448/57 501). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of low back pain in females was higher than that in males(P<0.01). Married, obese, occasional and frequent smokers, and a history of lower back disease were associated with increased risk of low back pain(all P<0.05). The risk of low back pain was associated with older age, higher education level, and lower frequency of physical exercise(all P<0.01). The risk of low back pain was higher with longer working time, greater back curvature, and the high frequency of long standing and sitting position work, uncomfortable working posture, repeated operation per minute, and lifting>5 kg weight(all P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The influencing factors of low back pain in the occupational population of key industries in China include bad working posture, high frequency load, weight load and other individual factors. There is a dose-response relationship with low back posture load and frequency of load.

Objective: To evaluate the efficiency and safety of low intensity conditional regimen for children with Fanconi anemia (FA) receiving allogenic hematopoietic stem cells transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods: Four patients diagnosed as Fanconi anemia were enrolled in this study. One patient received HLA-identical sibling donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, two patients underwent unrelated donor matched (UD) HSCT, and one patient received unrelated cord blood transplantation. The conditional regimen consisted of Busulfan with low dose of cyclophosphamide. Results: All 4 cases succeeded in allo-HSCT. The median time for neutrophils engraftment was 11(9-15) day, median time to platelets (PLT) engraftment was 12 (8-28) day. One case occurred with grade I of aGVHD, 1 case with hemorrhagic cystitis. No patient happened with hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD). Conclusion Low intensity of conditional regimen is efficient and safe which should be recommended for FA patients with HSCT.

OBJECTIVES: To select a Y-STR marker system with strong haplotype identification ability, appropriate mutation rate and high compatibility and to assess its forensic application. METHODS: The 24 Y-STR loci were tested by self-built fluorescent multiplex system, and the forensic assessment was conducted by 139 pairs of father-son samples collected in Jinan, Shandong province. RESULTS: Totally 176 alleles were identified among the 24 Y-STR loci in the sample of 139 unrelated individuals labeled with father, and the gene diversity （GD） distributed between 0.083 7 （DYS645）-0.966 9 （DYS385a/b）. According to the 24 Y-STR loci, 139 different haplotypes were detected from 139 unrelated male individuals labeled with father in Han population of Shandong province and with no shared haplotype observed. The overall haplotype diversity （HD） was 1 and the discrimination capacity （DC） was 1. A total of 5 one-step mutations events were observed among the 24 Y-STR loci in 139 pairs of father-son. The average mutation rate was 0.001 5 [95% CI （0.000 5, 0.003 5）]. CONCLUSIONS The system of 24 Y-STR loci shows a strong individual recognition ability and low mutation rate in the population in Jinan, Shandong province, and it has good application value in forensic science.

Objective To explore the curative effect and prognosis of umbilical cord blood in the treatment of hematological diseases in children. Method The clinical data of 51 children who underwent umbilical cord blood transplantation from January 2011 to June 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. Results In 51 children (34 males and 17 females) with median age of 62 months, 32 children had malignant hematologic diseases and 19 children had nonmalignant hematologic diseases. Two children died before the granulocytes were reconstructed, 4 children had primary implantation failure, and 45 children had successfully implantation. The median time of implantation was 16 d, and the median time of platelet implantation was 23 d. The incidence of peri-implantation syndrome was 46.94%. The 100 day survival rate and long-term overall survival (OS) in children with peri-implantation syndrome were (73.9±9.2)% and (50.2±11.7)% respectively, which were significantly lower than the OS (100%) in children without peri-implantation syndrome (P<0.01). The incidence of acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) was 55.10%, among which Ⅱ-Ⅲ degrees of aGVHD was 28.57% and Ⅳdegrees of aGVHD was 26.53%. The 100 day OS in children with Ⅳ degrees of aGVHD was (61.5±13.5)%, and The OS in children with Ⅲ and Ⅳ degrees of aGVHD were (75.0±21.7)% and (44.9±14.1)% respectively, and the OS in children without aGVHD was (90.2±6.6)%. The difference was statistically significant (χ2=14.35,P=0.002). The incidence of chronic GVHD (cGVHD) was 28.57%. The long-term OS in children with cGVHD was (72.7±13.4)%, while OS in children without cGVHD was 100%. The 100 days OS was (86.0±4.9)%. Long-term OS in cord blood transplantation was (77.9±6.3)%, among which OS for malignant hematological diseases was (76.6±7.8)% and OS for nonmalignant hematological diseases was (79.5±11.3)%. Among malignant hematological diseases, the OS in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was (87.5±11.7)%, OS in acute myeloid lymphocytic leukemia (AML) was (76.7±10.3)%, and OS in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) was (33.3±27.2)%. Conclusions Umbilical cord blood transplantation is an effective treatment for hematologic diseases in children. It is important to treat the peri-implantation syndrome. Prevention and treatment Ⅲ/Ⅳ degree of aGVHD and cGVHD are important strategies to improve the efficacy of umbilical cord blood transplantation.

Objective To analyse the retrobulbar haemodynamic changes after vitrectomy in patients with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Methods Color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) was used for measurement of blood flow velocities including peak systolic velocity (PSV), end diastolic velocity (EVD) and resistive indexes (RI) of the ophthalmic artery (OA), posterior ciliary arteries (sPCA) and central retinal artery (CRA) in 50 eyes of 50 patients with RRD. In them 22 eyes were filled with silicone oil, 28 eyes were filled with 12%C3F8 and 22 eyes were operated to remove silicone oil after filled with silicone oil for 2-4 months, and then CDFI parameters were obtained. The contralateral eyes were used as control eyes before and after the operation. Results There were no significant differences in CRA and sPCA, and PSV, EDV and RI before treatment between RD and OA eyes and control eyes (P>0.05). PSV and EVD of CRA were significantly increased 3 months after surgery, RI were decreased significantly (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in blood flow parameters of OA and sPCA before and after surgeries (P>0.05). No changes were found in control eyes 3 months after surgery. Conclusion VRS might increase the velocity of CRA, decrease RI and improve ocular blood supply postoperatively.
