Objective To analyze the unexamined items and situations in occupational health examinations of radiation workers, and provide a reference for the revision of occupational health examination standards for radiation workers. Methods A total of 29 630 radiation workers who underwent occupational health examinations at The Third People’s Hospital of Henan Province in 2023 were selected, and the non-examination rates were statistically analyzed according to occupation, gender, and age. Results The overall non-examination rate of non-medical radiation workers was significantly lower than that of the medical radiation workers (P<0.05). The non-examination rate of chest X-rays among medical radiation workers was significantly higher than that of non-medical radiation workers (P<0.05), while no significant differences were found in other items (P>0.05). Gender-stratified analysis showed that the non-examination rate of routine urine tests was higher in females than in males in both medical and non-medical radiation workers (P<0.05). Age-stratified analysis revealed no significant differences in non-examination rates among different age groups in non-medical radiation workers (P>0.05), whereas the chest X-ray non-examination rate was relatively high in medical radiation workers under 30 years old (P<0.05). Conclusion Significant differences were observed in the non-examination rates of occupational health examinations among radiation workers based on occupation, gender, and age. The overall non-examination rate was relatively low in non-medical radiation workers.

ObjectiveTo develop a community-family management model for older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and to formulate detailed application specifications, and to fully leverage the initiative of communities and families under limited resource conditions, for achieving community-based early detection and early intervention for older adults with MCI. MethodsA systematic literature review was conducted to identify pertinent publications. Corpus-based research methodologies were employed to extract, refine, integrate and synthesize management elements, thereby establishing the specific content and service processes for each stage of the management model. Utilizing the 5W2H analytical framework, essential elements such as management stakeholders, target populations, content and methods for each stage were delineated. The model and its application guidelines were finalized through expert consultation and demonstration. ResultsAn expert evaluation of the management model yielded mean scores of 4.84, 4.32 and 4.84 for acceptability, feasibility and systematicity, respectively. By integrating the identified core elements with expert ratings and feedback, the final iteration of the community-family management model for older adults with MCI was formulated. This model comprised of five stages: screening and identification, comprehensive assessment, intervention planning, monitoring and referral pathways to ensure implementation, and enhanced support for communities, family members and caregivers. Additionally, it included 18 specific application guidelines. ConclusionThe proposed management model may theoretically help delay cognitive decline, improve cognitive function and potentially promote reversal from MCI to normal cognition. It may also enhance the awareness and coping capacity of older adults and their families, strengthen community healthcare professionals' ability to early identify and manage MCI.

Objective To analyze the correlation between tongue image features and the risk levels of disease in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy(IMN).Methods Based on IMN clinical research electronic data acquisition system,a cross-sectional study method was used to analyze the clinical diagnosis and treatment data of 135 IMN patients from Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine.The patients were grouped according to the risk levels of disease,and then the correlation between the risk levels of disease and tongue image features was analyzed.During the description of tongue image features,TB is for tongue body,TC is for tongue coating,L is for luminance,a is for red-green axis,G is for the value of green,B is for the value of blue,and AUT is for the value of autocorrelation.Results The comparison of tongue image feature indicators of patients with different risk levels of IMN showed that:(1)the higher the level of disease risk of IMN patients,the greater the values of TB-L,TB-G and TB-B(P<0.05 or P<0.01).The values of tongue image indicator TB-a and TC-a of the patients with different risk levels of IMN were shown in decreasing sequence:low-risk group>high-risk group>middle-risk group>extremely-high-risk group(P<0.05).(2)Linear regression analysis showed that TB-L,TB-G,and TB-B were significantly increased in the high-risk group compared with those in the middle-and low-risk groups(P<0.05 or P<0.01),whereas there were no significant differences between the middle-risk group and low-risk group(P>0.05).(3)The results of correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation among most of the tongue image feature indicators(including TB-L,TB-G,TB-B,TB-AUT,TC-L,TC-G,and TC-B,etc.)and the risk level of disease,while TB-a was negatively correlated with the risk level of disease,and the differences were all statistically significant(P<0.05 or P<0.01).(4)All patients were treated with Chinese medicine and/or Chinese patent medicine,and 46.7%of patients were given hormones and immunosuppressants,and there was no statistically significant difference in the the use of hormones and immunosuppressants among various groups(P=0.637).Conclusion There is a correlation between the tongue image features of IMN patients and the risk level of disease,and the results will provide an objective reference for the assessment of illness state and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome differentiation of IMN patients.With reference to the changes in the tongue image features,the illness state can be precisely identified,which is more accurate than the inspection of four diagnostic methods of TCM.

Objective To develop a core outcome set(COS)for treatment of progressive vitiligo in Uyghur medicine,and to standardize the selection and reporting of outcome measures in relevant studies.Methods Based on the existing core outcome domain set of randomized controlled trials for vitiligo,additional outcome indicators reflecting the advantages and characteristics of Uyghur medical treatment were developed.Specific indicators for Uyghur medical treatment of progressive vitiligo were collected through literature review and semi-structured questionnaire surveys,and then a list of indicators were formed.The Delphi survey and consensus meetings were used to select core indicators.Results A total of 54 studies were included,and 86 questionnaires were collected.Through literature review and questionnaire surveys,a list of 28 indicators were obtained.After two rounds of Delphi survey and one consensus meeting,12 outcome indicators in 7 domains were finally determined,including vitiligo lesion area,repigmentation,disease control time,maintenance of repigmentation,recurrence rate,immune indicators,psychological health,patients' quality of life,adverse events,adverse reaction incidence,liver and kidney function monitoring,and Uyghur medicine syndrome differentiation of mucus.Additionally,some measurement tools for certain indicators were recommended.Conclusion The development of the COS for vitiligo treatment in Uyghur medicine helps to comprehensively evaluate the efficacy of Uyghur medicine,and will provide a model for establishing efficacy evaluation methods that conform to the characteristics of ethnic minority medicine.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of posterior minimally invasive approach in the treatment of posterior wall acetabular fractures. METHODS: The clinical data of 17 patients with posterior wall acetabular fractures treated with posterior minimally invasive approach between March 2019 and June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 14 males and 3 females with an average age of 41 years ranging from 28 to 57 years. The causes of injury were traffic accident in 12 cases and falling from height in 5 cases. There were 3 cases complicated with posterior hip dislocation and 2 cases complicated with sciatic nerve injury. According to AO/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) classification, there were 11 cases of type A1.1 and 6 cases of type A1.2. The time from injury to operation was 5-8 days, with an average of 6.2 days. The incision length, intraoperative blood loss, and operation time were recorded. The quality of posterior wall fracture reduction were evaluated by Matta criteria, and hip function were evaluated by modified Merle d'Aubign-Postel score criteria at 6 months after operation and last follow-up. RESULTS: The operation was successfully completed in 17 cases. The length of incision ranged from 7 to 9 cm, with an average of 8.3 cm, and all incisions healed by first intention. The intraoperative blood loss ranged from 200 to 350 mL, with an average of 281 mL. The operation time ranged from 45 to 70 minutes, with an average of 57 minutes. Two patients had sciatic nerve injury before operation, and the sciatic nerve function recovered completely at 3 months after operation; the other 15 patients had no symptoms of sciatic nerve injury after operation. All the 17 patients were followed up 14-27 months, with an average of 19.5 months. At 1 week after operation, according to the Matta criteria, anatomical reduction was achieved in 12 cases and satisfactory reduction in 5 cases, with a satisfaction rate of 100%. According to the modified Merle d'Aubign-Postel scoring system, the hip function score was 13-18 (mean, 16.1) at 6 months after operation. Among them, 5 cases were excellent, 9 were good, and 3 were fair, with an excellent and good rate of 82.4%. At last follow-up, the hip function score was 7-18 (mean, 13.7), of which 3 cases were excellent, 9 were good, 3 were fair, and 2 were poor, with an excellent and good rate of 70.6%. During the follow-up, there was no infection, failure of internal fixation, and femoral head necrosis, and heterotopic ossification occurred in 2 cases. CONCLUSION The posterior minimally invasive approach has the advantages of less trauma, shorter operation time, less blood loss, without cutting off the external rotator muscle. Exposure through the gluteus medius-piriformis space and piriformis-supercilium space can provide sufficient safe exposure for the posterior wall acetabulum fracture, which is a reliable alternative approach for the posterior acetabular fracture.
