Background Fatigue among distribution network live-line workers in complex operational environments has become increasingly severe and requires widespread attention. Objective To investigate the positive rates of fatigue and associated influencing factors of live-line power distribution workers, and to make a reasonable strategy to reduce the fatigue of front-line workers. Methods Power supply companies in Guangdong, Guangxi, and Yunnan provinces were selected by cluster sampling in 2023, and all front-line live-line workers in the selected companies were recruited. The questionnaire used in this study consisted of two parts: one was the Fatigue Scale-14 (FS-14) for investigating fatigue status and the other was for associated influencing factors. A FS-14 score greater than 3 points was defined as fatigue. \begin{document}$ {\chi }^{2} $\end{document} test and logistic regression were employed to analyze the factors affecting fatigue. Results A total of 1341 questionnaires were distributed, and 1217 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a valid response rate of 90.75%. The average fatigue score of the participants was (6.84±3.79) points, and a total of 1054 participants scored over 3, resulting a fatigue positive rate of 86.6%. The logistic regression model showed that working under extreme weather (OR=2.03, 95%CI: 1.38, 2.98), overtime 2-3 times a week (OR=5.24, 95%CI: 1.28, 21.40), overtime everyday (OR=6.95, 95%CI: 1.71, 28.27), frequent wrist rotation (OR=1.95, 95%CI: 1.08, 3.51), and leaning back slightly (OR=2.94, 95%CI: 1.19, 7.28) associated with higher positive rates of fatigue. Conclusion The high positive rate of fatigue among live-line power distribution workers suggests severe fatigue issues. Extreme weather conditions, working overtime frequency, and maintaining wrist rotation and backward bending postures during work are main factors affecting their fatigue.

Kui was first recorded in The Rites of Zhou and is the earliest domesticated wild vegetable in China. In the Qi Min Yao Shu, Kui was called “the master of all vegetables” and has a long history of application in China. As a medicine, Kuizi was first recorded in Shen Nong’s Herbal Classic, which has a history of more than 2 000 years of medicinal use and a long history of clinical application. By researching the ancient and modern herbal literature, the first herbs texts of Kui were examined, various recorded texts, confused products and the history of the original medicinal use were clarified. It was concluded that the ancient herbal texts recorded the base plant of Kui as Malva verticillata L. belonging to family Malvaceae, which provided scientific basis for the development and utilization of Kui.

ObjectiveTo screen suitable packaging and storage conditions for small packaged Alismatis Rhizoma decoction pieces， laying the foundation for developing standardized storage， maintenance techniques and determining shelf life. MethodsUsing the accelerated stability test method， the small packaged decoction pieces of Alismatis Rhizoma were placed in polyethylene plastic bags， aluminum foil polyethylene composite bags， and cowhide coated paper bags under temperature of （40±2） ℃ and relative humidity of （75±5）% conditions， the quality testing was conducted at the end of the 0^th， 1^st， 2^nd， 3^rd， and 6^th month， respectively. Using long-term stability test method， an orthogonal experiment was designed to investigate storage conditions， packaging materials， and packaging methods. At the end of the 0^th， 1^st， 3^rd， 6^th， 9^th， 12^th， 18^th， and 24^th month， the quality of small packaged Alismatis Rhizoma decoction pieces was tested under different packaging and storage conditions（including 2 packaging methods：vacuum packaging and sealed packaging， 3 storage conditions：room temperature， cool， and modified atmosphere， 3 packaging materials：cowhide coated paper bag， aluminum foil polyethylene composite bag， and polyethylene plastic bag）. Then， the G1-entropy weight method combined with orthogonal experiment was used to analyze the quality changes of the decoction pieces under different packaging and storage conditions to identify optimal packaging and storage conditions. The quality testing indicators for Alismatis Rhizoma decoction pieces were expanded beyond those specified in the 2020 edition of the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China. In addition to the existing indicators（characteristics， moisture content， extractives， and the total content of 23-acetyl alisol B and 23-acetyl alisol C）， new indicators including color value， water activity， total triterpenoid content， and alisol B content have been added. ResultsThe accelerated stability test results indicated that the quality of small packaged Alismatis Rhizoma decoction pieces was more stable when packaged in aluminum foil-polyethylene composite materials compared to cowhide-coated paper bags and polyethylene plastic bags. Analysis of the long-term stability test results using the G1-entropy weight method combined with orthogonal experiment revealed that storage conditions had the greatest impact on both raw and salt-processed products， followed by packaging materials， while the packaging method had the least influence. For both types of small packaged Alismatis Rhizoma decoction pieces， modified atmosphere storage demonstrated superior efficacy compared to cool storage or room temperature storage. Storage in aluminum foil-polyethylene composite bags was superior to polyethylene plastic bags or cowhide-coated paper bags. However， the stability of sealed raw products was better than vacuum-packed ones， whereas vacuum-packed salt-processed products exhibited greater stability than their sealed counterparts. ConclusionBased on the results of the quality changes of small packaged Alismatis Rhizoma decoction pieces under different storage conditions， it is recommended that the suitable storage packaging conditions for small packaged raw products are sealed packaging with aluminum foil polyethylene composite bags and controlled atmosphere storage， and the suitable storage and packaging conditions for small packaged salt-processed products are vacuum packaging with aluminum foil polyethylene composite bags and controlled atmosphere storage.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of Jianfu mixture in the treatment of erectile dysfunction （ED） by network pharmacology and molecular docking techniques, and validate its core targets and mechanisms through in vitro experiments. Methods The active components and corresponding molecular targets of Jianfu mixture were searched by searching TCMSP and Batman-TCM databases, and the disease targets of ED were searched by using GeneCards database. Find the intersection of drug ingredient target and disease target. The interaction between intersected targets was described and analyzed by String database, and the analysis results were visualized by Cytoscape software to determine the core target and the corresponding active components. GO functional enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed for intersection targets; the core target within the intersection were found through MCODE plug-in on Cytoscape software and molecular docking was performed with the corresponding active ingredients. An endothelial dysfunction model was established by transfecting HUVECs with si-eNOS. Intervene with different concentrations of the Jianfu mixture for the model cells for 24 h. QPCR was used to detect mRNA expression of core targets （MAPK1, MAPK3, JUN, ESR1, MAPK8）; Western blot was used to analyze protein expression （eNOS, JUN, p-JUN, MAPK, p-MAPK） and phosphorylation levels. Results 144 effective active components and 168 active components target-disease targe intersection of Jianfu mixture were obtained. GO analysis revealed 200 5 biological processes, 151 molecular functions, and 63 cellular components. KEGG analysis yielded 181 pathways. 5 core targets including MAPK1, MAPK3, JUN, ESR1 and MAPK8 were screened out. The active components such as β-sitosterol, kaempferol, astapterocarpan had good binding affinity with the core target. In vitro experiments confirmed successful construction of the endothelial dysfunction model （eNOS expression significantly decreased after si-eNOS transfection）. Jianfu mixture dose-dependently inhibited mRNA expression of MAPK1, MAPK3, JUN, ESR1, and MAPK8. Additionally, it reduced phosphorylation levels of JUN and MAPK, indicating inhibition of the JNK/c-Jun and ERK/MAPK signaling pathways to improve endothelial function. Conclusion Jianfu mixture treats ED by suppressing abnormal activation of multi-target signaling pathways （MAPK/JUN/ESR1）, reducing endothelial apoptosis, and promoting NO synthesis. This mechanism aligns with the traditional Chinese medicine principle of “activating blood circulation, resolving stasis, tonifying Qi, and strengthening cardiovascular function.” The study provided molecular-level evidence for the therapeutic efficacy of Jianfu mixture in ED management.

Objective To analyze the postoperative complications and survival outcomes of elderly patients with renal cell carcinoma undergoing laparoscopic surgery, and to identify the influencing factors, so as to provide reference for improving the safety of laparoscopic surgery in such patients. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical, surgical, and pathological data of 153 patients aged ≥75 years who underwent laparoscopic nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma at our hospital during 2012 and 2025.Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors influencing postoperative complications, and a nomogram was constructed and validated to predict the complications.Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curve, and the effects of different surgical approaches on the prognosis and the survival difference in the age subgroups (75-＜80 years, ≥80 years) were analyzed.Cox regression analyses were conducted to determine factors affecting survival outcomes. Results Among the 153 patients, 15 developed postoperative complications, including 5 severe cases. Multivariate logistic regression identified Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) ≥3 and prolonged operation time as independent risk factors for postoperative complications (P＜0.05).The C-index of the logistic regression model constructed based on these factors (age, CCI≥3 and operation time) was 0.77 (95%CI:0.64-0.90), with an average absolute error of 1.6%.Subgroup analysis revealed superior overall survival in patients aged 75-＜80 years undergoing partial nephrectomy compared to radical nephrectomy (P=0.005 6).No statistically significant difference in overall survival was observed among patients ≥80 years who received different surgical approaches (P=0.062).Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified preoperative low albumin levels, preoperative renal insufficiency, tumor diameter＞4 cm, and pathological stage as independent risk factors for overall survival (P＜0.05). Conclusion Laparoscopic surgery is safe and effective for elderly patients with renal cell carcinoma, with survival outcomes correlated to nutritional status, renal function, tumor size and pathological staging.Patients aged ≥80 years still derive surgical benefit, and no survival differences exist between different surgical approaches in this age group.

Vascular structure pattern，namely the maturity，morphology and distribution of blood vessels，as one of the pathological features of renal cell carcinoma (RCC)，cannot be ignored when the prognosis is concerned.The current mainstream classification of vascular structure patterns includes pseudoacini，Golgi，lacunar and dispersion patterns.Many studies have shown that the vascular structure patterns in RCC are closely related to the diagnosis and prognosis.Early features such as dendritic penetration of the endothelium contribute to the differential diagnosis of RCC，while different vascular structure patterns are not only related to tumor grade，but also affect the responsiveness of targeted therapy and prognosis.Evaluating these vascular structural patterns can help to understand the biological behaviors of tumors and guide the treatment options，but a unified assessment of vascular structural patterns is still lacking.This paper reviews the research progress on the relationship between vascular structure patterns and RCC prognosis，aiming to provide clinical reference.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a serious intracranial hemorrhage characterized by acute bleeding into the subarachnoid space. The effects of shikonin, a natural compound from the roots of Lithospermum erythrorhizon, on oxidative stress and blood–brain barrier (BBB) injury in SAH was evaluated in this study. A rat model of SAH was established by endovascular perforation to mimic the rupture of intracranial aneurysms. Rats were then administered 25 mg/kg of shikonin or dimethylsulfoxide after surgery. Brain edema, SAH grade, and neurobehavioral scores were measured after 24 h of SAH to evaluate neurological impairment. Concentrations of the oxidative stress markers superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), and malondialdehyde (MDA) in the brain cortex were determined using the corresponding commercially available assay kits. Evans blue staining was used to determine BBB permeability. Western blotting was used to quantify protein levels of tight junction proteins zonula occludens-1, Occludin, and Claudin-5. After modeling, the brain water content increased significantly whereas the neurobehavioral scores of rats with SAH decreased prominently. MDA levels increased and the levels of the antioxidant enzymes GSH and SOD decreased after SAH. These changes were reversed after shikonin administration. Shikonin treatment also inhibited Evans blue extravasation after SAH. Furthermore, reduction in the levels of tight junction proteins after SAH modeling was rescued after shikonin treatment. In conclusion, shikonin exerts a neuroprotective effect after SAH by mitigating BBB injury and inhibiting oxidative stress in the cerebral cortex.

Objective This study aims to investigate the current status and potential profiles of emotional inhibition in stoma patients with colorectal cancer,to analyze the differences and influencing factors,and thereby provide a basis for the development of intervention strategies.Methods A convenience sample of 348 colorectal cancer patients with ostomies was recruited from colorectal surgery departments and ostomy outpatient clinics of a tertiary A hospital in Anhui Province.Data were collected using the General Information Questionnaire,Emotional Inhibition Scale,Chinese Perceived Stress Scale,10 item Conner Davidson Resilience Scale,and Family Care Index Questionnaire.Latent profile analysis was performed using Mplus 8.3,while univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were conducted using SPSS 26.0.Results Valid questionnaires were collected from 336 participants(response rate 96.6％).Colorectal cancer patients with ostomies demonstrated a mean emotional inhibition score of 30.84±10.49.Latent profile analysis identified 3 distinct emotional inhibition patterns:high inhibition-suppressive type(31.25％),moderate inhibition-adaptive type(39.88％),and low inhibition-excessive type(28.87％).Gender,residential location,household income per capita,ostomy self-care proficiency,perceived stress levels,psychological resilience scores and family functioning status emerged as significant determinants of emotional inhibition heterogeneity among colorectal cancer patients with ostomies across distinct latent profiles(P＜0.05).Conclusion Colorectal cancer patients with ostomies exhibit significant heterogeneity in emotional inhibition profiles.Clinicians should conduct early identification of these latent classes through standardized assessments and develop tailored interventions to improve emotional inhibition outcomes in this clinical population.

Objective To explore and analyze the current situation of consumer health activation index and its influencing factors in hospitalized elderly patients with multiple chronic conditions,and to provide reference basis for clinical intervention.Methods Convenience sampling method was used to select 332 hospitalized elderly patients with multiple chronic conditions from a tertiary hospital in Hefei City from July to December 2024 as the study subjects,and general information questionnaire,Consumer Health Activation Index,Health Literacy Management Scale,Scale of the Elderly Self-neglcet(Rural),and Perceived Social Support Scale were used to investigate the current situation of consumer health activation index of hospitalized elderly patients with multiple chronic conditions.Univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were employed to explore the influencing factors of consumer health activation index in patients with multiple chronic conditions.Results A total of 332 questionnaires were distributed,and 325 valid questionnaires were retrieved.The score of the consumer health activation index of hospitalized elderly patients with multiple chronic conditions was(61.68±15.12).The results of multiple linear regression showed that literacy,average monthly household income,number of chronic diseases,medication frequency,self-care ability,health literacy management,perceived social support and self-neglect were the influencing factors for the positivity of hospitalized elderly patients with multiple chronic conditions(P＜0.05),which could explain 59.9％of the variance of the consumer health activation index of hospitalized elderly patients with multiple chronic conditions.Conclusion The consumer health activation index of hospitalized elderly patients with multiple chronic conditions is at a low level.In the future,precise and systematic intervention measures for enhancing positive health status can be formulated by taking into account relevant influencing factors,in order to promote the transformation of patients from passive health to active health,and thereby facilitating positive aging.
