Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of autologous nano-fat injection to correct upper eyelid depression.Methods:From March 2016 to March 2020, a total of 191 eyes were treated in 110 patients with upper eyelid depression, including 81 cases on both sides and 29 cases on one side. The fat was obtained by negative pressure liposuction from the thigh. After the nano treatment, the obtained nano fat was injected into the subcutaneous layer, ROOF layer and orbital septum evenly with multi-tunnel without tension.Results:Among 110 patients, 1-2 ml of nano-fat was filled to the upper eyelid unilaterally, with an average of 1.5 ml. 95 patients were followed up for 2-24 months, with average 6 months. After one injection, the depression of the upper eyelid was significantly improved in all patients, and the correction of the depression of the upper eyelid was insufficient in 28 patients. After 3 months, autologous nano fat filling was performed again, and the results were satisfactory. Temporary ptosis occurred in 5 patients and recovered naturally after 3-6 months. Local ecchymosis and swelling were observed in 12 patients, and resolved spontaneously within 7-14 days. No infection, nodules or other complications occurred in all the patients.Conclusions:Nano-fat is a safe and effective method, which can effectively fill the orbital depression area and correct the depression of upper eyelid, with less adverse reactions.

Objective: To evaluate the viability of gasoline engine exhaust (GEE) with different particle sizes on human lung cell line BEAS-2B in vitro by air-liquid interface (ALI) . Methods: GEE were collected with a Tedlar bag and their particulate matter (PM) number, surface and mass concentration in three kind of GEE (filtered automobile exhaust, non-filtered automobile exhaust and motorcycle exhaust without three-way catalytic converter) were measured by two type of particle size spectrometer including TSI-3321 and SMPS-3938. Five groups were included, which divided into blank control group, clean air group, filtered automobile exhaust group, non-filtered automobile exhaust group and motorcycle exhaust without three-way catalytic converter group. Except the blank control group, BEAS-2B cells, cultured on the surface of Transwells, were treated with clean air or GEE by ALI method at a flow rate of 25 ml/min, 37 ℃ for 60 min in vitro. CCK-8 cytotoxicity test kit was used to determine the cell relative viability of BEAS-2B cells. Results: In the filtered automobile exhaust, non-filtered automobile exhaust and motorcycle exhaust without three-way catalytic converter, high concentrations of fine particles can be detected, but the coarse particles only accounted for a small proportion, and the sequence of PM concentration was motorcycle exhaust without three-way catalytic converter group> non-filtered automobile exhaust group> filtered automobile exhaust group (P<0.001) . Compared with the clean air group, the cell relative viability in the 3 GEE-exposed groups were significantly lower (P<0.001) . Among the comparisons of GEE exposure groups with different particle size spectra, the sequence of the cell relative viability was filtered automobile exhaust group >non-filtered automobile exhaust group> motorcycle exhaust without three-way catalytic converter group (P<0.001) . When took the clean air control group as a reference, the mean of the cell relative viability in the filtered automobile exhaust group, non-filtered automobile exhaust group and motorcycle exhaust without three-way catalytic converter group, was decreased by 26.34%, 36.00% and 49.59%, respectively. Conclusion GEE with different particle size spectra could induce different levels of toxic effects to the human lung cells BEAS-2B by ALI. After lowering the concentration of particles in the GEE and using the three-way catalytic converter could obviously improve the survival rate of lung cells.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of single breath-hold TFE-EPI in non-contrast coronary MRA on 3.0 T MRI.Methods:Both single breath-hold TFE-EPI and free breathing TFE were conducted in 23 healthy volunteers. Acquisition time between the two sequences were compared by paired- t-test analysis. Signal-noise-ratio (SNR), contrast-noise-ratio (CNR),image artifacts and distortion,vessel acuity were evaluated on the aorta(Ao), right coronary artery proximal(RCA-pro), right coronary artery middle (RCA-mid), left anterior descending proximal(LAD-pro) and left circumflex proximal(LCX-pro). Nonparametric analyses were conducted for the comparison. Results:The acquisition time decreased 96.51% in TFE-EPI compared with TFE [(16.3±2.2)s vs.(466.9±101.3)s, t=21.49, P<0.01]. There was no statistical significance in SNR comparison in all the vessel evaluation (all the P>0.05). TFE-EPI showed better CNR in RCA-mid than TFE ( Z=2.65, P=0.008). TFE-EPI showed less image artifacts and distortion in RCA-mid than TFE ( Z=2.00, P=0.046). TFE-EPI also showed better vessel acuity in both RCA-pro and RCA-mid than TFE ( Z=3.88, P<0.001; Z=3.42, P=0.001). Conclusion:Single breath-hold TFE-EPI could greatly shorten scan time while ensuring image quality in coronal artery imaging and has a broad application in future.

{L-End}Objective To investigate the current status and influencing factors of leg work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in shipbuilding workers. {L-End}Methods A total of 3 393 shipbuilding workers from Guangdong Province, Liaoning Province, Shandong Province, and Beijing City were selected as the research subjects using the convenience sampling method. The Chinese Version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire was used to investigate the prevalence of leg WMSDs in the past year. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of leg WMSDs. {L-End}Results The prevalence of leg WMSDs in the research subjects was 11.3% (382/3 393). The result of multivariate logistic regression showed that the risk of leg WMSDs was higher in workers with a length of service >10 years than those with a length of service <5 years (P<0.05). Workers with frequent used of vibration tools at work had higher the risk of leg WMSDs (all P<0.05). Workers who did the same work every day, had insufficient rest time, had a shortage of department staff, and those who often repeated the same leg movements had a higher risk of leg WMSDs (all P<0.05). The risk of leg WMSDs in workers who sometimes stand for a long time was lower than that in workers who rarely stand for a long time (P<0.01). {L-End}Conclusion Length of service, rarely long-standing work, use of vibration tools at work, daily engagement in the same work, in-adequate rest time, shortage of department staff, and frequent repetition of the same leg movements are all influencing factors for leg WMSDs in shipbuilding workers.

Objective: To analyze the current status of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs), work fatigue and musculoskeletal pain in Chinese occupational population, and to study the relationship between work fatigue and musculoskeletal pain and WMSDs. Methods: A total of 66 961 employees from 323 enterprises in 15 key industries in China were selected as the study subjects using stratified cluster sampling method. The incidence of WMSDs in the past year was investigated using the Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire, and the work fatigue and musculoskeletal pain were investigated using Borg 6-20 Rating of Perceived Exertion Scale and visual analogue scale. The data were standardized using the age composition data of 18 to 60 years from the seventh national population census. Results: The standardized annual incidence of WMSDs was higher in the front-line workers than that in the administrative and other supportive staff (38.82% vs 36.30%). The detection rates of work fatigue and musculoskeletal pain in the study subjects were 44.54% and 63.08%, respectively. The result of S-curve fitting showed that the risk of WMSDs increased with the level of work fatigue (P<0.01). Among the front-line workers, the average of monthly fatigue frequency in the neck, shoulder, lower back, upper back, wrist/hand, foot and ankle, knee, leg, and elbow were higher in the group with WMSDs compared to those without WMSDs (all P<0.01). The pain degree of musculoskeletal pain was higher in all nine sites in the fatigued group than in the no-fatigue group (all P<0.01). The standardized detection rate of musculoskeletal pain was higher in the fatigued group than in the non-fatigued group (80.38% vs 25.71%). The work fatigue was moderate and positively correlated with musculoskeletal pain in all seven sites except the lower back and elbow, with Kendall Tau-b correlation coefficients ranging from 0.423 to 0.546 (all P<0.01). Conclusion: There is a good correlation between work fatigue and local musculoskeletal pain, work fatigue and WMSDs in Chinese occupational population. Implementing ergonomic interventions to control the development of work fatigue can be an effective measure for preventing WMSDs.

Frequency analysis and severity analysis methods were used for data processing.Results:The TCM symptoms of pulmonary tuberculosis patients with coronary heart disease were mainly cough [89.66%(104/116)], expectoration [73.28% (85/116)], dry mouth [70.69% (82/116)], chest tightness [64.66% (75/116)], fatigue [56.03%(65/116)], hot flashes [52.59% (61/116)], shortness of breath [50.00% (58/116)]; tongue color was more common with light red [43.10% (50/116)] and red [47.41% (55/116)]; the tongue shape was more common with cracked tongue [37.07% (43/116)], punctured tongue [27.59% (32/116)] and old tongue [23.28%(27/116)]; tongue coating with little or no coating [48.28%(56/116)], yellow and greasy coating [21.55% (25/116)] was more common; the pulse was usually thin (number) [54.31% (63/116)] and slippery (number) [25.86% (30/116)]. The principal component analysis method used a load coefficient >0.40 as the threshold to screen out the four diagnostic information of 10 principal components; the clustering analysis results were divided into three categories of TCM types: deficiency syndrome, excess syndrome, and mixed deficiency and excess syndrome. There were significant differences in TCM syndrome types among patients of different genders, ages, disease courses, and educational levels ( P<0.05). Deficiency syndrome was more common in male patients [41.18% (21/51)], and mixed syndrome of deficiency and excess was more common in female patients [63.08% (41/65)]; 43-59 years old patients were more likely to have excess syndrome [36.36%(24/66)], and ≥60 years old patients were more likely to have mixed syndrome [70.00% (35/50)]; patients with a course of disease <3 months had more excess syndrome [41.30% (19/46)], patients with a course of 3-12 months had more deficiency syndrome [57.14% (20/35)], and patients with a course of more than 1 year had more mixed syndrome of deficiency and excess [74.29% (26/35)]. male patients [54.17%(26/48)] were more serious in excess syndrome, and female patients [53.33% (24/45)]; were more serious in deficiency syndrome; deficiency syndrome [43-59 years old was 54.17% (42/84), ≥60 years old was 54.17% (12/24)] more serious in patients of different age groups; patients with a course of disease <3 months [56.86% (29/51)] were more serious in excess syndrome, and patients with a course of disease ≥3 months were more serious in mixed syndromes [3~12 months 52.38%(22/42), >1 year 53.33% (24/45)]. Conclusion:The pathogenesis of TCM in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis complicated with coronary heart disease in Kunming is deficiency in root and excess in superficiality; the syndrome is based on yin deficiency and qi deficiency, with blood stasis, phlegm heat, phlegm stasis and phlegm turbidity as the symptoms.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence and influencing factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders(WMSDs) among workers in a shipyard. METHODS: A total of 496 workers in a large shipyard in Guangdong Province were selected as research subjects using the convenient sampling method. The Questionnaire of Musculoskeletal Disorders was used to investigate the prevalence of WMSDs in various regions of the body in the past year.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the potential influencing factors of WMSDs in the frequently affected body parts. RESULTS: The prevalence of WMSDs was 70.2%(348/496). The prevalence rates of WMSDs in different body regions were: lower back/waist(43.1%), neck(29.4%), shoulder(29.0%), hand/wrist(25.4%), knee(22.4%), hip/leg(14.3%), ankle/foot(12.1%), upper back(11.3%) and elbow(9.3%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed that increased risk of lower back/waist WMSDs occurred in workers who carry heavy objects>5.0 kg, who work in uncomfortable positions, who repeatedly perform the same work every day, and who repeatedly perform the same action using the lower limbs and ankles(P<0.05). Employees working ≤8 hours or more than 8 hours per day had higher risk of developing lower back/waist WMSDs compared with workers working 8-10 hours per day(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The prevalence of WMSDs among workers in the shipyard is high.The lower back/waist WMSD is the most common one. The influencing factors include work organization and adverse ergonomic factors.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders(WMSDs) among workers in a cement plant. METHODS: A total of 196 workers in a cement plant were selected as study subjects using a judgment sampling method. A revised Musculoskeletal Injury Questionnaire was used to investigate the occurrence of WMSDs in workers in the past year. RESULTS: The detection rate of WMSDs in different parts of the body of workers in the cement plant was 18.4%-32.1%. The detection rates of WMSDs in all parts of the body from high to low was as follows: shoulder(32.1%), neck(30.6%), upper back(24.0%), ankle/foot(24.0%), lower back(23.5%), hip/thigh(22.4%), wrist/hand(21.4%), elbow(18.4%), and knee(18.4%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed that keeping the neck in the same posture for a long time was a risk factor for neck WMSDs [odds ratio(OR)=2.29, P<0.05). Frequent turning around was a risk factor for WMSDs on the neck and lower back(waist)(OR were 3.06 and 3.32, P<0.05). Maintaining the same posture for a long time on the back was a risk factor for shoulder and upper back WMSDs(OR were 3.22 and 2.34, P<0.05). Hard work was a risk factor for shoulder and upper back WMSDs(OR were 2.60 and 2.58, P<0.05). Driving a vehicle was a risk factor for lower back(waist) and ankle/foot WMSDs(OR were 2.54 and 3.17, P<0.05). Carrying objects heavier than 20 kilograms and frequent overtime working were risk factors for ankle/foot WMSDs(OR were 3.03 and 2.54, P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The most frequent parts of the body having WMSDs in the cement production workers are shoulders and necks. Occupational factors(turning around or keeping the same posture of neck and back) are risk factors of WMSDs on shoulder and neck.

The neural crest represents a dynamic population of embryonic stem cells, playing a pivotal role in the development of the eye. Through interactions with the surrounding neuroectoderm, superficial ectoderm and mesoderm, the neural crest contributes to the formation of numerous ocular structures, encompassing the corneal stroma and endothelium, trabecular meshwork, iris stroma, ciliary muscle, vitreous and choroidal vessels, and Müller cells. Aberrant migration and development of neural crest cells within the eye can instigate a complex series of ocular diseases. Such diseases include anterior segment like Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome, Peters anomaly, aniridia, primary congenital glaucoma, and Nail-Patella syndrome. Defects that impact the posterior segment may lead to CHARGE syndrome and Branchio-oculo-facial syndrome. Further, rare neurocristopathies such as Waardenburg syndrome, Treacher-Collins syndrome, and Char syndrome can also present with ocular abnormalities. In this review, we explore the ocular diseases that arise from abnormal neural crest cell development, and delve into the related genes involved in neural crest migration and development. We further discuss how mutations and defects in these genes can precipitate ocular diseases.

OBJECTIVETo explore the present state of occupational hazards and health status of workers in the automobile maintenance industry.

METHODSThe monitoring results of occupational hazards in 25 automobile maintenance companies, occupational health examination results of 751 male workers in 63 automobile maintenance companies, and physical examination results of 205 male students in one Research Institute were statistically analyzed in 2012.

RESULTSThe concentrations of benzene, toluene, xylene, ethyl acetate, and butyl acetate in the workplace were 0.3∼21.7, 0.4∼40.3, 0.4∼84.8, 1.9∼34.3, and 0.7∼516.7 mg/m(3), respectively; benzene concentration exceeded the upper limit in two workplaces, and butyl acetate concentration exceeded the upper limit in one workplace. The intensity of noise was 70.3∼ 91.3 dB (A) and exceeded the upper limit in one workplace. The prevalence of blood system involvement in spray painters was 15.6%, significant higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). High-frequency hearing loss was detected in 53.9%of all metalers. Logistic regression analysis indicated that blood system involvement was not correlated with age and working years in spray painters; high-frequency hearing loss in metalers was positively correlated with age, but not correlated with working years.

CONCLUSIONThe status of occupational hazards in the automobile maintenance industry should not be neglected, and the management of noxious positions and personal protection should be strengthened in enterprises.
