Objective To analyze the current status and influencing factors of occupational stress among firefighters in Shenzhen City. Methods A total of 5 434 first-line firefighters in Shenzhen City was selected as the study subjects using the judgment sampling method. The Job Content Questionnaire was used evaluate the occupational stress level. Results The detection rate of occupational stress in the study subjects was 52.5% (2 854/ 5 434). The result of dichotomous logistic regression analysis results showed that the risk of occupational stress was higher in firefighters who had a bachelor's degree or above than in those who had junior high school or below (P<0.01), the risk of occupational stress in those with irregular meals was higher than those with regular meals (P<0.01), and the risk of occupational stress was lower in those who exercised 1-3 times a month or ≥3 times a week than in those who did no daily exercise (all P<0.05). The risk of occupational stress was higher with older the weekly working hours, the more frequent the injury and the more firefighting workload (all P<0.01). The risk of occupational stress in firefighters who stand for a long time was higher than that in workers who not-stand for a long time (P<0.05). Conclusion The detection rate of occupational stress among the firefighters in Shenzhen City is relatively high. Educational level, dietary habits, daily exercise, weekly working hours, injury frequency, long-standing work and firefighting workload are all influencing factors for occupational stress in firefighters.

Free fatty acids, as important energy metabolism substrates for the heart, play an important role in various cardiovascular diseases; ω-3 PUFA, as an important branch of free fatty acids, has been confirmed by more and more researches to be closely related to cardiovascular diseases. Heart failure, as a common cardiovascular problem, seriously affects people's quality of life. Studies have shown that ω-3 PUFA plays a significant role in the development of heart failure. In this paper, we try to review the metabolism, pathogenesis and therapeutic significance of ω-3 PUFA in heart failure.

The density and composition of lymphocytes infiltrating colon tumors serve as predictive factors for the clinical outcome of colon cancer.Our previous studies highlighted the potent anti-cancer properties of the principal compounds found in Garcinia yunnanensis(YTE-17),attributing these effects to the regu-lation of multiple signaling pathways.However,knowledge regarding the mechanism and effect of YTE-17 in the prevention of colorectal cancer is limited.In this study,we conducted isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification(iTRAQ)analysis on intestinal epithelial cells(IECs)exposed YTE-17,both in vitro and in vivo,revealing a significant inhibition of the Wnt family member 5a(Wnt5a)/c-Jun N-terminal kinase(JNK)signaling pathway.Subsequently,we elucidated the influence and mechanism of YTE-17 on the tumor microenvironment(TME),specifically focusing on macrophage-mediated T helper 17(Th17)cell induction in a colitis-associated cancer(CAC)model with Wnt5a deletion.Additionally,we performed the single-cell RNA sequencing(scRNA-seq)on the colonic tissue from the Wnt5a-deleted CAC model to characterize the composition,lineage,and functional status of immune mesenchymal cells during different stages of colorectal cancer(CRC)progression.Remarkably,our findings demon-strate a significant reduction in M2 macrophage polarization and Th17 cell phenotype upon treatment with YTE-17,leading to the restoration of regulatory T(Treg)/Th17 cell balance in azoxymethane(AOM)/dextran sodium sulfate(DSS)model.Furthermore,we also confirmed that YTE-17 effectively inhibited the glycolysis of Th17 cells in both direct and indirect co-culture systems with M2 macrophages.Notably,our study shed light on potential mechanisms linking the non-canonical Wnt5a/JNK signaling pathway and well-established canonical β-catenin oncogenic pathway in vivo.Specifically,we proposed that Wnt5a/JNK signaling activity in IECs promotes the development of cancer stem cells with β-catenin activity within the TME,involving macrophages and T cells.In summary,our study undergoes the po-tential of YTE-17 as a preventive strategy against CRC development by addressing the imbalance with the immune microenvironment,thereby mitigating the risk of malignancies.

Objective To investigate vascular remodeling and low-density lipoprotein(LDL)deposition,the growth and development trends of lateral branch plaques in bifurcated vessels,and the potential locations of subsequent plaque growth due to the presence of plaques.Methods An idealized model of bifurcated vessels was established and the distribution of wall shear stress before and after the growth of edge-branch plaques was obtained using computational fluid dynamics.Seven sections were intercepted in the areas of low shear stress:planes 1-3 were the low shear stress areas on the lateral branch before plaque formation,planes 4-5 were the proximal and distal edges of the plaque,and planes 6-7 were the lower shear stress areas of the plaque.Vascular remodeling and LDL deposition in the cross section were simulated.The growth and development trends of plaques are also discussed.Results Among planes 1-3,plane 2 produced obvious negative remodeling and the highest concentration of LDL deposition(102.266 mmol/L),thereby indicating that this was the initial location of the atherosclerotic plaque.Compared to plane 4,plane 5 produced more pronounced vascular remodeling,lumen narrowing,and the highest deposition concentration(110.17 mmol/L)after plaque formation,which indicated that the patch had a tendency for eccentric growth downstream.Compared to plane 6,plane 7(blood flow separation reattachment site)produced more negative remodeling and the highest deposition concentration(93.851 mmol/L),thereby indicating the possibility of new plaque formation near the reattachment point of blood flow separation.Conclusions Obvious vascular remodeling at low shear stress in the lateral branches leads to lumen stenosis and high LDL deposition,thus,forming atherosclerotic plaques.The lateral wall of the bifurcated blood vessels is the initial location of atherosclerotic plaque growth.After growth,the plaque tends to develop downstream,and subsequent plaques may form at the flow separation and reattachment points.
