Objective: To establish a prediction model for high-risk cardiovascular disease (CVD) among residents aged 35 to 75 years, so as to provide the basis for improving CVD prevention and control measures. Methods: Permanent residents aged 35 to 75 years were selected from Dongcheng District, Beijing Municipality using the stratified random sampling method from 2018 to 2023. Demographic information, lifestyle, waist circumference and blood biochemical indicators were collected through questionnaire surveys, physical examinations and laboratory tests. Influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model, and a prediction model for high-risk CVD was established. The predictive effect was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: A total of 6 968 individuals were surveyed, including 2 821 males (40.49%) and 4 147 females (59.51%), and had a mean age of (59.92±9.33) years. There were 1 155 high-risk CVD population, with a detection rate of 16.58%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, smoking, central obesity, systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years (all P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of the established prediction model was 0.849 (95%CI: 0.834-0.863), with a sensitivity of 0.693 and a specificity of 0.863, indicating good discrimination. Conclusion The model constructed by eight factors including demographic characteristics, lifestyle and blood biochemical indicators has good predictive value for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years.

Background Occupational disease diagnosis appraisal is an appeal procedure initiated when a party disagrees with the occupational disease diagnosis conclusion. It is a legal procedure to safeguard the health rights of employees and the legitimate rights and interests of employers. Objective To analyze the data of occupational disease diagnosis appraisal in Shanghai, identify existing problems, and provide suggestions for improving. Methods Statistical analysis was conducted on basic situation, characteristics of workers and employers, disease classification, and consistency between diagnosis and appraisal conclusions of all occupational disease diagnosis appraisal cases from 2012 to 2024. All diagnosis conclusions were named in accordance with the Classified Catalogue of Occupational Diseases included employers were classified according to the Measures for the Statistical Classification of Large, Medium, Small and Micro Enterprises" and the Notice on Adjusting the Provisions for Classifying Enterprise Registration Types; industry classification followed the Industrial Classification for National Economic Activities (GB/T 4754-2017). Results From 2012 to 2024, a total of 260 cases of occupational diseases diagnosis appraisal were closed. The main diagnosis were 138 cases of ear, nose, throat, and oral diseases (53.1%), chemical poisoning (18.8%), and pneumoconiosis and other respiratory diseases (16.2%). The proportion of ear, nose, throat, and oral diseases gradually increased (2022 excluded). The incidence of annual municipal and provincial cases decreased by 76.3% and 85.0% respectively (2024 vs 2012). The consistency rate of conclusions between appraisal and diagnosis gradually increased. The total consistency rates between final appraisals and diagnostic conclusions were 81.5%, and 79.7%, 87.8%, 100.0%, 85.0% for ear, nose, throat, and oral diseases, chemical poisoning, and pneumoconiosis and other respiratory system diseases, respectively. Specifically, the consistency rates were 80.1% and 80.0% for noise-induced deafness and chronic benzene poisoning. In terms of inconsistency reasons, "inconsistent interpretation of standards and excessive discretion in standard application" accounted for 43.8%, followed by "failure to correctly apply standards" (31.3%) and and "discrepancies in occupational exposure history recognition" (15.6%). Conclusion The revisions and improvements of the legal system for occupational disease diagnosis appraisal have played a positive role in improving the consistency of conclusions between appraisal and diagnosis of occupational diseases in Shanghai. It is suggested to further strengthening the publicity and training of occupational disease diagnosis standards to improve the quality of occupational disease diagnosis.

ObjectiveTo analyze the characteristics and trends of injury-related deaths among the registered residents in Yuyao City, Zhejiang Province from 2014 to 2023, and to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of targeted injury prevention and control strategies. MethodsData on injury-related deaths in Yuyao City from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2023 were collected from the cause-of-death surveillance module of the chronic disease monitoring and management system of Zhejiang Province. Indicators including constituent ratio, crude mortality rate (CMR), standardized mortality rate (SMR), premature death probability, potential years of life lost (PYLL), average years of life lost (AYLL), and potential years of life lost rate (PYLLR) were calculated. The average annual percentage change (AAPC) was used to analyze the trends in injury mortality over the past 10-year period. ResultsFrom 2014 to 2023, a total of 6 625 injury-related deaths were reported in Yuyao City, accounting for 10.65% of all deaths and ranking fourth among all causes. The CMR was 79.34/100 000 and showed an increasing trend (AAPC=4.396%, t=2.875, P=0.021), while the SMR was 38.99/100 000 with no significant trend (AAPC=-0.585%, t=-0.451, P=0.664). The SMR of females (37.74/100 000) was lower than that of males (40.87/100 000) (χ²=12.468, P<0.001). The top 5 causes of injury-related death were falls, traffic accidents, drowning, suicide, and accidental suffocation. Over the 10-year period, the SMRs for traffic accidents, drowning, and suicide showed downward trends (AAPC=-5.381%, t=-3.428, P=0.009; AAPC=-8.061%, t=-6.924, P<0.001; AAPC=-6.919%, t=-4.039, P=0.004, respectively), while the SMRs for falls and accidental suffocation showed no significant trends (AAPC=3.417%, t=1.767, P=0.115; AAPC=2.228%, t=0.803, P=0.445). Injury mortality increased with age for males, females, and the total population (all P<0.05). The leading causes of injury-related death were drowning among residents aged 0‒<15 years, traffic accidents among those aged 15‒<45 and 45‒<65 years, and falls among those aged 65‒<85 and 85‒110 years. The total PYLL due to injury was 58 708.00 person-years, the AYLL was 21.23 years, and the PYLLR was 7.36‰. ConclusionFrom 2014 to 2023, the crude mortality rate due to injuries in Yuyao City remained at a relatively high level, posing a serious threat to residents’ health and well-being. Falls, traffic accidents, drowning, suicide, and accidental suffocation are key targets for injury prevention and control work.

Objective:To investigate impacts of paeoniflorin-6′-O-benzene sulfonate(CP-25)on proliferation and apoptosis of ovarian cancer cells through Toll-like receptor 4(TLR-4)/nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway.Methods:CCK-8 assay was performed to measure the cell activity of human ovarian cancer cells A2780,SK-OV-3,HO8910 and normal ovarian cells HOSEpiC.A2780 cells were separated into control group(0.01%DMSO),CP-25 low(0.5 mg/ml CP-25),medium(1 mg/ml CP-25)and high(2 mg/ml CP-25)concentration groups and CP-25 high concentration+LPS group(2 mg/ml CP-25 and 0.1 μg/ml TLR-4 activator LPS).Cell proliferation was evaluated by CCK-8 and clone formation assays;cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry and TUNEL staining;proliferating protein Ki67,apoptosis-related proteins(Cleaved caspase-3,Caspase-3,Bax,Bcl-2),TLR-4,p-NF-κB p65,NF-κB p65 protein expression levels were analyzed by Western blot;protein expressions of TLR-4 and NF-κB p65 were observed by immunofluorescence staining.Results:Compared with HOSEpiC cells,viabilities of A2780,SK-OV-3 and HO8910 cells were reduced gradually with the increased of CP-25 concentration(P<0.05),and CP-25 had about 50%inhibitory effect on the growth of A2780 cells at low,medium and high concentrations,so A2780 cells were used for the experiments.Compared with control group,the clone formation rate of A2780 cells in low,medium and high concentration groups of CP-25 reduced obviously,while apoptosis rate and apoptosis index rose obviously,expression levels of Ki67,Bcl-2,TLR-4,p-NF-κB p65 and nuclear NF-κB p65 were reduced obviously,while expression of Cleaved caspase-3/Caspase-3 and Bax were increased obviously in a concentration-dependent manner(P<0.05).Compared with CP-25 high concentration group,cell viability and clone formation rate were significantly increased in CP-25 high concentration+LPS group,while apoptosis rate and apoptosis index were decreased significantly,expression levels of Ki67,Bcl-2,TLR-4,p-NF-κB p65 and nuclear NF-κB p65 were increased significantly,while expressions of Cleaved caspase-3/Cas-pase-3 and Bax were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion:CP-25 inhibits ovarian cancer cell proliferation and promotes apoptosis by inhibiting TLR-4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of Isaria felina derived from Cordyceps sinensis combined with cyclophosphamide(CTX)in hepatoma H22 tumor-bearing mice.Methods An H22 tumor-bearing mouse model was established and mice were divided randomly into a normal control group(NC group,distilled water),model control group(MC group,distilled water),positive control group(CTX group,25 mg/kg),Isaria felina group(IF group,400 mg/kg),and combined administration group(IF+CTX group,IF 400 mg/kg+CTX 25 mg/kg),with 5 mice in each group.Distilled water and IF were administered by gavage,and CTX was administered by intraperitoneal injection.The administration cycle was 10 days.At the end of the experiment,the mean tumor volume and weight,tumor inhibition rate,q value,and immune organ index were calculated,and routine blood indexes and cytokine levels were determined.Histopathological changes in tumor tissues were observed by HE staining.Results The tumor volume and mass were significantly lower in mice in each treatment group compared with those in mice in the MC group(P＜0.05).The tumor inhibition rates in the CTX,IF,and IF+CTX groups were 49.3%,34.2%,and 72.8%,respectively,and the q value was 1.09.The numbers of white blood cells,Lymph,and platelets were significantly higher in the IF+CTX group than in the CTX group(P＜0.05).The spleen index was significantly higher in the MC group compared with that in the NC group,and significantly lower in the IF+CTX group compared with that in the MC group(P＜0.05).Serum interferon-γ levels were significantly lower in the MC group than in the NC group,and were significantly higher in the IF and IF+CTX groups compared with those in the MC and CTX groups(P＜0.05).Pathologically,tumor cells in the MC group grew well and were numerous and closely arranged,while cells in the CTX,IF,and IF+CTX groups were arranged loosely,with focal necrosis and nuclear pyknosis of necrotic cells in many places.Conclusions The combination of IF and CTX has an additive anti-tumor effect on H22 tumor-bearing mice,which can alleviate immunosuppression and have an immunomodulatory function.

Objective To explore the longitudinal trajectories of symptom clusters in patients with rectal cancer within 6 months after laparoscopic anal preservation surgery,and analyze the predictive factors of each trajectory subgroup.Methods A longitudinal survey was conducted to select 128 patients who underwent laparoscopic anal preservation surgery for rectal cancer at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery,a tertiary hospital in Nanchong from November 2021 to April 2022.The general information questionnaire,Chinese version of Anderson Symptom Inventory for Gastrointestinal Cancer and Charlson Comorbidity Index were used to conduct follow-up surveys of the selected patients at 2 weeks,1 month,3 months and 6 months after surgeiy.The symptom cluster were extracted by exploratory factor analysis,and the latent category growth model was constructed to identify the trajectory subgroups of each symptom cluster.The predictive factors of each trajectory subgroup were analyzed by Mplus statistical software.Results There were 4 symptom clusters within 6 months after laparoscopic anus preserving surgeiy for rectal cancer,which were named as sickness symptom cluster,psychological-sleep symptom cluster,gastrointestinal symptom cluster,and psychological-treatment-related symptom cluster.The variance contribution rates were 65.173％,66.225％,62.421％,and 60.492％,respectively.The latent class growth model identified that there are 4 to 5 trajectory subgroups in the symptom cluster.Gender,education level,Charles Comorbidity Index,clinical T stage,medical cost burden,and treatment method were the predictors of high-risk trajectory subgroups in the symptom cluster(P＜0.05).Conclusion There are 4 symptom clusters within 6 months after laparoscopic anus preserving surgeiy for rectal cancer.The gastrointestinal symptom cluster is a specific symptom cluster for this type of patients with the heaviest symptom burden.The overall trajectory of each symptom cluster shows a dynamic decline trend,but individual trajectoiy subgroups still have an exacerbation trend.There are differences in predictive factors for different symptom clusters.Clinical medical staff should pay attention to the management of symptom clusters in patients with female patients,low education level,high Charles Comorbidity Index,high clinical T stage,heavy medical cost burden,and patients whose treatment method is chemotherapy plus surgery.High-risk groups should be timely identified;corresponding intervention methods were dynamically adjusted;the quality of precision nursing was improved.

Objective To investigate the current postoperative physical activity levels of lung cancer patients after a month and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods From January to December 2023,a total of 1,195 lung cancer patients from 16 hospitals in eastem,central and westem China were selected as the survey subjects by the convenient sampling method.A cross-sectional survey was conducted by General Information Questionnaires,Health-Related Physical Fitness Surveys,MD Anderson Symptom Inventory,Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale,Social Support Rating Scale,Self-Rated Abilities for Health Practices Scale,and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire.Results 36 questionnaires with missing data exceeding 10％and 13 duplicate questionnaires were excluded,resulting in the analysis of 1,146 questionnaires.After a month postoperatively,lung cancer patients with moderate and low levels of physical activity were 732(63.9％)and 204(17.8％),respectively.Multivariate regression analysis showed that the influencing factors included residence,average monthly family income,regional lymph node staging,family history of lung cancer,grip strength,hemoglobin,and depression score(P＜0.05).Conclusion The physical activity level of lung cancer patients a month after surgery is influenced by a combination of sociodemographic,disease-related,health-related physical fitness,and psychological factors.Clinical healthcare professionals should accurately assess the physical activity levels of lung cancer patients,identify those with insufficient physical activity,and develop and implement personalized intervention strategies based on their physical condition and potential influencing factors to enhance their physical activity levels and improve their quality of life.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between thyroid hormone resistance and hyperuricemia in euthyroid population.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. A total of 548 euthyroid subjects who were hospitalized or underwent physical examination in the Heart Center and Health Management Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Tsinghua University from January 2021 to December 2022 were selected. Thyroid function, uric acid, blood lipid and other indicators were collected in the subjects, and thyroid function parameters were calculated: thyroid-stimulating hormone index (TSHI), thyrotropin T4 resistance index (TT4RI), parametric thyroid feedback quantile-based index (PTFQI), free triiodothyronine/free thyroxine (FT3/FT4), the sum activity of peripheral deiodinases (SPINA-GD) and the secretory capacity of the thyroid gland (SPINA-GT). According to uric acid level, the subjects were divided into high uric acid group and normal group, the clinical characteristics and thyroid function parameters of the two groups were compared, the correlation between thyroid hormone resistance and hyperuricemia was further explored.Results:Compared with the normal group, male proportion (94.4% and 52.5%), smoking rate (5.2% and 21.3%), body mass index [(27.10±3.96) and (24.26±3.42) kg/m 2], waist-to-hip ratio [0.90(0.86, 0.94) and 0.86(0.80, 0.91)], serum creatinine [(85.50±12.27) and (73.77±28.79) μmol/L], total cholesterol [(5.08±0.99) and (4.72±0.86) mmol/L], triglyceride [2.10(4.40, 5.59) and 1.14(0.79, 1.67)mmol/L], low-density lipoprotein [(3.19±0.97) and (2.85±0.84) mmol/L] and homocystine [(15.07±9.13) and (12.50±10.85) μmol/L] were all higher in the high uric acid group, and the level of high-density lipoprotein [1.15(1.43, 2.88) and 1.39(1.16, 1.64) mmol/L] was lower (all P<0.05). In the aspect of thyroid hormone and thyroid function parameters, the FT4[16.90(5.40,17.95) and 16.00(14.30,17.80) pmol/L], FT3[5.56(5.25, 5.94) and 5.22(4.81, 5.63) pmol/L], FT3/FT4 [0.34(0.31, 0.37) and 0.32(0.29, 0.36)], TSHI (2.70±0.50 and 2.58±0.60), PTFQI (0.406±0.332 and 0.335±0.353) and SPINA-GD [3.72(3.41, 4.05) and 3.52(3.18, 4.00) ]were all higher in high uric acid group than those in normal group(all P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that blood uric acid level was positively correlated with FT4 ( r=0.185), FT3 ( r=0.422), FT3/FT4 ( r=0.16), TSHI ( r=0.134), TT4RI ( r=0.09), PTFQI ( r=0.121) and SPINA-GD ( r=0.157) (all P<0.05). Conclusion:In people with euthyroid function, central resistance to thyroid hormone is correlated with hyperuricemia.

Objective:To analyze the effectiveness and interobserver agreement of the Parer five-tier, the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) three-tier, and the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) three-tier electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) systems in identification of neonatal acidosis during labor.Methods:This retrospective study was conducted on full-term singleton cephalic deliveries with neonatal acidosis (umbilical artery blood gas pH≤7.1) and normal newborns (umbilical artery blood gas pH≥7.2) in the Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Nanjing University Medical School from January to December 2020. EFM tracings during the last 30-60 min before delivery were collected. Four obstetricians independently described the features of randomly sorted and coded EFM tracings. Another obstetrician categorized these tracings using the NICHD three-tier, FIGO three-tier, and Parer five-tier evaluation systems based on the features. All researchers were masked to the clinical characteristics and maternal and neonatal outcomes. The sensitivity and specificity for identifying neonatal acidosis, as well as the interobserver agreement, were analyzed for all three systems. Independent sample t-test, Chi-square (or Fisher's exact test) and Mann-Whitney U tests were used for statistical analysis. Inter-group comparisons of sensitivity and specificity between the three evaluation systems were assessed using McNemar's test. The Kappa statistic was used to analyze interobserver agreement. Results:This study included a total of 3 558 cases. After propensity score matching, there were 44 cases of neonatal acidosis and 78 control cases. There were no significant differences in parity, gestational weeks, modes of delivery, placental abruption, or analgesia rates between the two groups. The rates of instrumental vaginal delivery and neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission in the acidosis group were significantly higher than those in the control group [15.8% (7/44) vs. 2.6% (2/78), χ2=8.45, P=0.003; 31.8% (14/44) vs. 12.8% (10/78), χ2=8.45, P=0.004], while the umbilical artery blood pH and mean base excess were lower in the acidosis group than in the control group [7.04±0.07 vs. 7.30±0.05, t=4.98; (－12.40±3.32) vs. (－5.64±1.95) mmol/L, t=13.61; both P<0.001]. (2) Using the NICHD three-tier system, 95.5% (42/44) of the acidosis cases and 89.7% (70/78) of the control cases were classified as having category Ⅱ EFM tracings, indicating potential fetal acid-base imbalance; category Ⅲ EFM tracings were only observed in 4.5% (2/44) of the cases in the acidosis group. With the FIGO three-tier system, 81.8% (36/44) of the acidosis cases were categorized as having "pathological" tracings, and with the Parer five-tier system, 86.4% (38/44) of the acidosis cases were correctly classified into the "orange or red" risk zones that indicated acid-base imbalance. Among the control cases, there were 28.2% (22/78) with EFM tracings of "normal patterns" categorized by the FIGO three-tier system, and 41.0% (32/78) classified into the "green or blue" risk zones by the Parer five-tier system, which indicated good fetal conditions. None of the acidosis cases were misdiagnosed as being normal by the Parer five-tier system. (3) Compared with the NICHD three-tier system, both the FIGO three-tier and the Parer five-tier systems showed increased diagnostic sensitivity [4.5% (1.2%- 14.5%) vs. 81.8% (66.8%-89.4%) and 86.4% (71.8%-92.4%)], but decreased specificity [100.0% (95.3%- 100.0%) vs. 87.2% (78.0%-92.9%) and 84.6% (75.0%-91.0%)]. There was no statistically significant difference in the sensitivity or specificity between the FIGO three-tier and Parer five-tier systems for identifying neonatal acidosis ( P=0.727 and 0.791). (4) When reading the tracings of control cases, the total agreement rate for the NICHD three-tier system by different observers was as high as 94.2%, while the total agreement rates for the FIGO three-tier and Parer five-tier systems were 69.7% and 67.7%, respectively. In the interpretation of EFHR tracings for acidosis cases, the interobserver agreement for the Parer five-tier system was excellent [Kappa (95% CI): 0.87 (0.79-0.95)], while both the NICHD three-tier and FIGO three-tier systems showed good agreement [Kappa (95% CI): 0.77 (0.66-0.88) and 0.72 (0.60-0.84)]. Conclusions:The Parer five-tier and the FIGO three-tier systems have higher sensitivity in identifying neonatal acidosis than the NICHD three-tier system, and the Parer five-tier system achieves a higher negative predictive value and a greater agreement in the interpretation of pathological EFM patterns.
