Objective: To investigate the features of literature on hand-transmitted vibration in China, 1990-2016. Methods: In September 2017, the studies on hand-transmitted vibration in China, which were published in Chinese or English during 1990-2016, with "China" and "Taiwan" as the places where author affiliations were located, were retrieved. A bibliometric analysis was performed to investigate the type of articles, publication time, the journals in which articles were published, author affiliations, author regions, and funding. Results: A total of 205 articles on hand-transmitted vibration were retrieved. There were 7.59 articles on average published annually from 1990 to 2016. In the 205 articles, 114 (55.61%) were published in the journals indexed in one or two core journal databases. In the 64 journals, 22 (34.38%) were indexed in one or two core journal databases. The first authors were from 22 provincial regions (provinces, autonomous regions, or centrally administered municipalities) in China, with 152 articles (74.15%) by the authors in the top five regions. There were a total of 876 authors, and the co-authorship degree was 4.27 (876/205). Most of the first authors (136 articles, 66.34%) were affiliated with universities or institutes for prevention and control of occupational diseases. Among the 205 articles, 103 (50.24%) were original articles or investigations, and 72 (35.12%) were funded. Conclusion The studies on hand-transmitted vibration fluctuated and increased from 1990 to 2016, with a relatively concentrated distribution in terms of sources, regions, and institutions. Interregional and international academic exchange should be strengthened.

Objective:To discuss the clinical characteristics,diagnosis processes,and treatment methods of one patient with congenital intrabdominal hernia,and to summarize the potential misconceptions during the diagnostic and treatment processes,and to improve the clinicians'awareness of this disease.Methods:The clinical data and auxiliary examination results of one patient with congenital intrabdominal hernia were collected and analyzed,and the related literatures were reviewed.Results:The patient,a 65-year-old male,sought care at the local hospital due to upper abdominal pain before 2 d;there were no significant abnormalities in the examination results at the cocal hospital;blood glucose>25 mmol·L-1.After receiving hypoglycemic,rehydration,and blood purification treatment,the condition of the patient was worsened,presenting with confusion,hypotension,and respiratory distress;the patient admitted in our hospital for further diagnosis and treatment.After admission,the patient was given despite fluid resuscitation,mechanical ventilation,and supportive treatment,but there was no improvement in the symptoms;interventional radiology was performed angiography of the abdominal artery and right femoral vein,which showed no significant vascular abnormalities in the abdomen.An abdominal paracentesis yielded a mixed bloody fluid,suggesting the concealed intraperitoneal disease;exploratory laparotomy was performed.During operation,the intrabdominal hernia with small intestine necrosis and septic shock were diagnosed,and partial small intestine resection,anastomosis,adhesiolysis,and abdominal irrigation and drainage were carried out.The patient had a good recovery and was discharged on the 14th day after operation.Conclusion:Congenital intrabdominal hernia is a very rare cause of intestinal obstruction in the adults,and high suspicion for intrabdominal hernia is one of the differential diagnosis for atypical acute abdomen;early multidisciplinary intervention can be lifesaving for the patients.

{L-End}Objective To investigate the current status of sleep quality and its influencing factors among coal miners in a company in Shanxi Province. {L-End}Methods A total of 1 047 coal miners from a coal mine company in Shanxi Province were selected as the study subjects by convenient sampling method. The occupational stress, occupational burnout and sleep quality of the study subjects were investigated using Occupational Stress Core Scale, Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey and Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index Scale. {L-End}Results The detection rates of occupational stress, occupational burnout, sleep disorder were 58.9%, 59.1% and 57.9%, respectively. The result of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that education level, alcohol consumption, work shift, duration of dust-exposure, phase of respiratory symptoms, self-assessment of health, occupational stress and occupational burnout were independent influencing factors of sleep disorders in the coal miners (all P<0.05). Among them, the risk of sleep disorders in drinkers was higher than that in non-drinkers (P<0.05); the risk of sleep disorders was higher in miners working in a rotating work shift with two shifts than in those with three shifts (P<0.05); the higher the education level, the longer the duration of dust-exposure, the more serious the phase of respiratory symptoms, the worse the self-assessment of health, the higher the degree of occupational stress and the higher the degree of occupational burnout, the higher the risk of sleep disorders (all P<0.05). {L-End}Conclusion The incidence of sleep disorders in coal miners in this company is relatively high. Occupational stress, occupational burnout, education level, alcohol consumption, work shift, duration of dust-exposure, respiratory symptoms and health status are risk factors for sleep disorders in coal miners.
