Objective To evaluate and analyze the feasibility and application effect of ^“DOTS + WeChat^” in the treatment and management of tuberculosis patients. Methods From 2018 to 2019, a total of 2 420 active pulmonary tuberculosis patients were registered in Zibo City, and 1 988 patients meeting the inclusion criteria were selected as the research subjects. 836 patients were randomly enrolled under the ^“DOTS + WeChat^” integrated management mode, while the other 1152 cases were treated with single DOTS management mode. The regular medication status, treatment and outcome, and core knowledge awareness of the two groups were analyzed by SPSS16.0 software, χ²- test and t- test methods. Result The ^“DOTS + WeChat^” comprehensive management group had higher a regular medication rate (98.80%), coincidence rate of sputum test times (95.81%), and success rate of treatment (98.68%) than the single DOTS management group (92.10%, 90.19%, and 96.53%) (P=0.000, 0.000, 0.003). The rate of medical staff participating in supervision and management in the comprehensive management group (100%) was higher than that in the single management group (75.87%) (P=0.000). The complete follow-up rate in the consolidation period (100%) and the complete whole course follow-up rate (99.76%) were both higher than those in the single management group (P=0.000, 0.001). The awareness level of core knowledge in the comprehensive management group (78.58±4.32) was higher than that in the single management group (70.70±8.02) (P=0.000). Conclusion The application of WeChat management mode has a positive effect on the treatment and management of tuberculosis patients in Zibo City. It is a feasible and effective supplement and improvement to the current tuberculosis control and management measures, which is worthy of further promotion and exploration.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a detection method for zirconium and its compounds in the workplace air with inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry( ICP-MS). METHODS: The samples in workplace air were collected by micro filtration membrane. The water soluble zirconium compounds were eluted with 2. 0 mol / L hydrochloric acid and then pre-digested by nitric acid. The water insoluble zirconium compounds were digested by ammonium sulfate solution and then determined by ICP-MS. RESULTS: There were good linear relationship in the range of 0. 000-1. 000 mg / L, and the correlation coefficient was 0. 999 9. The detection limit was 0. 1 μg / L,and the minimum detection concentration was 0. 07μg / m~3(sample volume was 75 L). For the water soluble zirconium compounds the average recovery of standard addition was 95. 0 %-98. 8 %. The with-in run relative standard deviation( RSD) was 2. 0 %-3. 9 % and the between-run RSD was2. 8 %-6. 6 %. For the water insoluble zirconium compounds, the average recovery of standard addition was 94. 4 %-98. 7 %. The with-in run RSD was 2. 1 %-4. 2 % and the between-run RSD was 3. 2 %-4. 7 %. The samples could be stored at room temperature for at least 30 days. CONCLUSION: The method is rapid,accurate and high sensitivity. It can be used for quantitative detection of zirconium and its compoundsin workplace air.

To investigate the expression of small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sdLDL-C) in patients with H-type hypertension and its association with H-type hypertension and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene polymorphisms. The retrospective study method was used,and a total of 207 hospitalized hypertensive patients (76 males and 131 females, aged 40-82 years, median age 66 years) admitted to the Zibo First Hospital from March 2021 to March 2022 were enrolled in this study. The levels of homocysteine (Hcy), sdLDL-C, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG) and lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] were measured. The patients were divided into H-type hypertensive group (n=105, 40 males and 65 females) and non-H-type hypertensive group (n=102, 36 males and 66 females) according to Hcy levels. The C677T polymorphism of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene was detected in each group. Logistic regression analysis was performed for the related factors of H-type hypertension. The serum sdLDL-C levels were (0.92±0.31) and (0.65±0.28) mmol/L in H-type hypertension group and non-H-type hypertension group, respectively. The sdLDL-C levels in H-type hypertension group were significantly higher than those in non-H-type hypertension group (t=6.500, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the serum sdLDL-C levels between males and females in H-type hypertension group (t=-1.543, P=0.129). The CC, CT, TT genotypes and C and T allele frequencies of MTHFR C677T in H-type hypertension group were significantly different from those in non-H-type hypertension group (P<0.05). The Hcy and sdLDL-C levels in different genotypes of MTHFR in H-type hypertension group were significantly different (H=12.742, P=0.002; F=3.345, P=0.042). Among them, Hcy levels were higher in TT genotype than in CT and CC genotypes, respectively (Z=-28.099, P=0.003; Z=-16.112, P=0.040), and sdLDL-C levels were higher in TT genotype than in CC genotype (t=-2.587, P=0.012). Logistic regression analysis showed that age, sdLDL-C, and MTHFRC677T TT genotypes were associated with the development for H-type hypertension. In conclusion, the level of sdLDL-C is associated with MTHFR gene polymorphisms and may be associated with the development of H-type hypertension.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the intervention effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction(MBSR) on surgical stress of bronchoalveolar lavage(BAL) in patients with pneumoconiosis. METHODS: A total of 102 patients with pneumoconiosis who undergoing selective BAL were randomly divided into control group and MBSR group with 51 cases in each group by a convenient sampling method. The patients in the control group received routine nursing, the MBSR group received 5 times of MBSR treatment. All patients were investigated using the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS), Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS) and Chinese Version Perceived Stress Scale(CPSS) before the first BAL and after the last BAL. RESULTS: Before the first BAL, the scores of SAS, SDS and CPSS in these two groups were compared and showed no statistical significance(P>0.05). After the last BAL, the scores of SAS, SDS and CPSS were lower in the MBSR group than that of the control group and the same group before the first BAL(P<0.01).CONCLUSION: The MBSR could effectively reduce the pressure perception level of patients with pneumoconiosis who undergoing selective BAL, improve their anxiety and depression and promote the smooth implementation of BAL.

More than 90% of artificial irradiation comes from medical irradiation. New radiation technologies are constantly emerging in the medical field, bringing benefits to patients. At the same time, the harm of medical irradiation has attracted more and more attention. There are many problems in the supervision and management of radiation health in medical institutions, such as many standards and specifications involved in radiation health in medical institutions, uneven professional ability of personnel in primary health supervision institutions, inadequate implementation of the main responsibility for the safety of radiation diagnosis and treatment in medical and health institutions, and non-standard service of radiation health technical service institutions, etc. In view of the above problems, the implementation plan of standardization of radiation health supervision, radiation diagnosis and treatment behavior, and radiation technical service behavior has been set. After the pilot operation, the effect is obvious.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the accuracy and safety of measurements of transcutaneous carbon dioxide partial pressure (TcPCO METHODS: A total of 45 very low birth weight infants were enrolled. TcPCO RESULTS: There was no significant difference in TcPCO CONCLUSIONS Lower electrode temperatures (38-41℃) can accurately measure blood carbon dioxide partial pressure in very low birth weight infants, and thus can be used to replace the electrode temperature of 42°C. Transcutaneous measurements at the lower electrode temperatures may be helpful for understanding the changing trend of blood oxygen partial pressure.

Objective To analyze the epidemic characteristics of tuberculosis in Zibo City in recent years, and to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of tuberculosis prevention and control strategies and measures during the 14th Five-Year Plan period. Methods Descriptive epidemiological analysis was used to analyze the information of tuberculosis patients registered in ^“China Disease Control and Prevention Information System-Tuberculosis Information System^” from 2012 to 2020 in Zibo City. Results From 2012 to 2020, a total of 12,706 pulmonary tuberculosis patients were registered in Zibo City, and the registered incidence rate decreased year by year (F=53.348, P<0.001), with an average annual rate of 30.45/10 million. There was no significant change in mortality. In regional distribution, the incidence was higher in northern region of Zibo than that in the southern region, with a cross distribution in the central region. In terms of time distribution, there were cases in each month over the years, and the overall trend increased first, then decreased and once again increased (F=8.856, P=0.006<0.01), with two low points occurring between January to February and also in October, and two peaks occurring between May to June and also in December. In terms of population distribution, most patients were local cases (82.38%). The incidence rate of males was about 2.09 times that of females. The incidence rate of children aged 0-14 was the lowest, while elderly people aged 65 years old and over had the highest incidence (61.02/10 million). Farmers were the main occupation among tuberculosis cases, accounting for 60.59% of the total. The main source of patients was from tracking, accounting for more than 50% since 2016. Conclusion The epidemic of tuberculosis in Zibo is stable and the incidence rate is decreasing year by year, showing seasonal variations. The majority of the patients are male. Special attention should be paid to farmers and the elderly, and further research on risk factors in high-risk areas and counties should be strengthened.
