1.Advance in current management of patients with anaplastic thyroid carcinoma
China Oncology 2014;(4):310-315
Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is the most aggressive thyroid tumor, with lower morbidity and higher mortality rates. Radical surgery could improve local control and survival rates. Conformal radiotherapy is superior to conventional radiotherapy, which could improve the patients’ quality of life. There are a few chemotherapeutic drugs against ATC, and the outcome of chemotherapy alone is modest. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy can prolong the survival. Targeted therapy brings new hope for refractory patients. Many cancer centers are exploring surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy and other biological treatment of comprehensive application, in order to enhance the curative effect. This article reviewed the foregoing treatments for ATC.

BACKGROUND: BACKGROUND: Studies have found that surface treatment agents containing 10-methacryloyloxy decyl dihydrogen phosphate may be chemical y bonded to the oxide on the surface of zirconia, thereby notably improving the bonding performance of zirconia. OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of Mondbond N and Single bond Universal Adhesive on microtensile bond strength between zirconia and composite resin. METHODS: Sixty pieces of zirconia were randomized into three groups: in group 1, conventional Bis-GMA resin cement was used to bond zironia and composite resin; in group 2, conventional Bis-GMA resin cement was used to bond zironia and composite resin fol owing Mondbond N treatment; in group 3, conventional Bis-GMA resin cement was used to bond zironia and composite resin fol owing surface treatment with Single Bond Universal Adhesive containing 10-methacryloyloxy decyl dihydrogen phosphate. Microtensile bond strength and microstructure on the bonding interface were compared among three groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Microtensile bond strength was significantly higher in the groups 2, 3 than group 1 (P < 0.05), and there was no difference between the two former groups. (2) Scanning electron microscope observation of the bonding interface: before microtensile test, there were more fissures on the bonding interface of group 1; in the group 2, there were a few fissures on the bonding interface that was relatively even; in the group 3, the bonding interface was smooth and continuous with few fissures. After microtensile, cohesive failure and bonding interface failure were mainly seen in the three groups, but there was no simple interface failure in the groups 2 and 3. These findings indicate that Monobond N and Single Bond Universal Adhesive can both improve the bonding strength of zirconia with composite resin.

Objective:
To investigate the thyroid functions and influencing factors among radiation workers in Wuhan City, so as to provide insights into occupational health monitoring among radiation workers.
Methods :
Radiation workers receiving physical examinations in Wuhan Prevention and Treatment Center for Occupational Diseases from January to October 2022 were enrolled, and participants' gender, age, smoking, alcohol consumption, medical history, medication use, types of occupational radiation and work duration were collected. Triiodothyronine (TT3), thyroxine (TT4), free thyroxine (FT4), free triiodothyronine (FT3) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) were measured using a magnetic microparticle-based chemiluminescence immunoassay. Personnel dose equivalent was monitored using thermoluminescent dosimetry, and annual cumulative radiation dose was estimated. Factors affecting thyroid function were identified using a multivariable linear regression model.
Results:
Totally 978 radiation workers were recruited, with a median age of 32.00 (interquartile range, 10.00) years, and including 782 men (79.96%) and 196 women (20.04%). There were 246 smokers (25.15%), 257 workers with alcohol consumption (26.28%) and 489 with a history of radiation work (50.00%). The median annual cumulative radiation dose was 0.20 (interquartile range, 0.24) mSv. The percentage of abnormal thyroid function was 14.72%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that women (OR=1.925, 95%CI: 1.061-3.490), history of radiation work (OR=2.810, 95%CI: 1.119-7.057) and involving in medical application (OR=1.915, 95%CI: 1.101-3.332) were associated with abnormal thyroid function.
Conclusions
The percentage of abnormal thyroid function was 14.72% among radiation workers in Wuhan City. History of exposure to ionizing radiation, types of occupational radiation and gender were main factors affecting thyroid function.

Objective:To investigation the situation of occupational noise exposure and hearing loss among workers in automobile manufacturing enterprise during 2017-2019 in Wuhan.Methods:Workers in automobile manufacturing who underwent physical examination in Wuhan Hospital for the Prevention and Treatment of Occupational Diseases from 2017 to 2019 were included as subjects in the cross-sectional survey. Questionnaire survey, noise detection and pure tone threshold test were used. Excluding individuals with working time less than 3 years and information deficiency, 3 948 individuals were finally included in the study.Results:Among 3 948 workers, 128 workers had hearing loss and the rate of hearing loss was 3.24%, among which 101 workers had high-frequency hearing loss and 27 workers were diagnosed as occupational noise deafness. The prevalence of hearing loss among workers previously exposed to noise was significantly higher than that without prior exposure (12.10%, 0.96%, P<0.05) . The prevalence of hearing loss among workers with occupational noise exposure <80 dB (A) , 80~<85 dB (A) and ≥85 dB (A) was 1.83%, 2.69% and 5.09%, respectively. The prevalence of high frequency hearing loss was 1.60%, 2.05% and 3.71%, respectively. The prevalence of occupational noise deafness was 0.23%, 0.64% and 1.38%, respectively. The prevalence of hearing loss and high frequency hearing loss among workers exposed to different occupational noise was statistically significant ( P<0.05) , while the prevalence of occupational noise deafness was not statistically significant ( P>0.05) . There were statistically significant differences in the prevalence of hearing loss (2.88%, 4.45%) and occupational noise deafness (0.46%, 1.41%) between those who used protective equipment and those who did not ( P<0.05) . Compared with workers exposed to occupational noise <80 dB (A) , workers exposed to occupational noise ≥85 dB (A) had A 3.16-fold increased risk of hearing loss ( OR=3.16, 95% CI: 1.44~6.95, P<0.05) . Compared to workers using hearing protective equipment, the risk of hearing loss ( OR=1.96, 95% CI: 1.25~3.06, P<0.05) and occupational noise deafness ( OR=3.46, 95% CI: 1.51-7.96, P<0.05) significantly increased among those without using hearing protective equipment. Conclusion:The risk of hearing loss in automobile manufacturing workers is significantly associated with occupational noise exposure and the use of hearing protective equipment. Good hearing protection may reduce the risk of occupational noise-induced hearing loss and occupational noise deafness.
