As the prevalence of chronic diseases increases among occupational populations in China, the focus of occupational health management has shifted from ″occupational disease prevention and control″ to ″occupational disease and chronic disease prevention and control″. At present, occupational medical examinations (OME) are mainly focused on occupational disease prevention and control, and generally lack of chronic disease indicators such as blood lipids and blood glucose, limiting the role of OME in life-cycle health management of workers. To address this gap, it is necessary to incorporate chronic disease screening indicators into OME. Integrating OME and chronic disease screening faces bottlenecks, including concerns about increased operating costs in small- and medium-sized enterprises, and the risk of employment discrimination caused by the leakage of employee health privacy. A tiered strategy is recommended. Incorporating low-cost indicators such as blood lipids, waist circumference into routine examinations, and customizing advanced screening for elder or high-risk position workers. The prioritization of screening indicators can be determined by expert consultation and employer-employee discussions. Meanwhile, the results of chronic disease screening indicators should not be included in occupational health surveillance records to protect workers′ privacy. In summary, expanding OME to cover more chronic disease indicators provides valuable economic and social benefits. In the long run, common chronic disease screening indicators should be included in the regular medical examination indicators of OME, thereby reducing the burden of chronic diseases on occupational populations and promoting the health management of occupational populations.

This study， anchored in the traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome differentiation and treatment principles alongside the clinical characteristics of sepsis in Western medicine， extensively gathers and meticulously dissects the latest research findings on sepsis animal models from both Chinese and international sources. Adhering strictly to TCM syndrome diagnostic criteria for sepsis， the study conducts a thorough evaluation of various animal models across multiple dimensions， including clinical manifestations， pathological changes， and biomarker expressions， so as to reflect the degree of resemblance these models have to human sepsis TCM syndromes. The results reveal that the colon stent implantation model exhibits a higher degree of congruence with both TCM and Western medicine standards， particularly aligning with the diagnosis of the "Fu-Qi obstruction syndrome". Conversely， the extraperitoneal sepsis model shows a higher degree of congruence with TCM， fitting more closely with the diagnosis of "acute deficiency syndrome" and emphasizing the core pathogenesis of Qi deficiency in sepsis. These findings not only augment the diversity of sepsis animal models but also highlight the necessity and potential of integrated TCM and western medicine research. Current sepsis animal models predominantly focus on western pathophysiological mechanisms， with limited direct incorporation of TCM syndrome differentiation elements. This underscores the need， in future study designs， to actively explore integrating TCM syndrome classification and intervention principles into model development. This could be achieved by manipulating model-inducing factors and observing more TCM-specific symptoms and signs among other strategies， so as to establish sepsis models that more closely resemble clinical reality and incorporate both TCM and western medical perspectives.
