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.

Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) is an emerging therapeutic modality for peritoneal carcinomatosis. This review aims to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and current clinical application of PIPAC in the treatment of peritoneal metastases originating from gastrointestinal malignancies. This review outlines the technical principles, historical development, procedural steps, commonly used drugs, and administration protocols of PIPAC; analyses the current clinical application status of PIPAC technology; discusses the current challenges and future directions of PIPAC; suggests that PIPAC technology still needs to conduct more high-quality and large-sample clinical trials to further establish the safety and efficacy of PIPAC, optimize its indications and formulate standardized operation specifications. In the future, multi-centre cooperation, multi-disciplinary cooperation, precision medicine strategies and new drug research and development will promote the clinical transformation and standardized application of PIPAC technology.

Objective:This study aimed to summarize and analyze the preliminary application experience of a novel pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) device in patients with peritoneal metastases of gastrointestinal malignancies.Methods:In this descriptive case series study, four patients with pathologically confirmed peritoneal metastatic gastrointestinal malignancies were enrolled, receiving PIPAC treatment at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from December 2024 to February 2025. The PIPAC treatment was performed five times on these patients . Key procedural steps included equipment preparation, operation platform construction, cytologic examination of ascites, Peritoneal Cancer Index (PCI) scoring, biopsy of peritoneal metastases, drug preparation, connection and testing of the PIPAC device, PIPAC treatment, and aerosol evacuation. Preoperative and postoperative clinical data were collected and analyzed to assess the safety and feasibility of PIPAC treatment.Results:3 males and 1 female patients were enrolled; median age was 57 (range, 36-70) years old; median body mass index was 22.5 (range, 18.0-24.6) kg/m2, and the preoperative Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score was 1 for all cases. Four patients successfully completed the five PIPAC treatments without any intraoperative adverse events. The PIPAC treatment time ranged from 34 minutes to 36 minutes, with a median preoperative PCI score of 18 (range, 5-25). The average Peritoneal Regression Grading Score (PRGS) before the first and second PIPAC treatments were 2.1±0.8 and 1.7±0.6, respectively. The median Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores for pain on postoperative days 1, 2, and 3 were 2 (range, 2-4), 1 (range, 0-2), and 1 (range, 0-2), respectively. All patients resumed the oral intake and ambulation on the first postoperative day, with a postoperative hospital stay of 3 days. No postoperative complications or perioperative death occurred.Conclusion:The preliminary study results indicate that the use of the novel PIPAC device for the treatment of peritoneal metastases of gastrointestinal malignant tumors is safe and feasible.

Background When live working line operators engage in upper limb operations, working for a long time with raising arms and the exposure to adverse ergonomic factors tend to increase muscle load, cause fatigue accumulation, and increase the risk of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs). Objective To analyze work posture and associated muscle fatigue during executing breaking/connecting contact terminal, and identify adverse ergonomic factors of the work process. Methods This study recruited 10 volunteers to perform breaking/connecting contact terminal simulation. At a distance of 4.5, 3.5, and 2.5 m from the body to the wire, each performed the task 5 times. Visual 3D was used to analyze the kinematic data from motion capture. The surface electromyography (sEMG) signals of the deltoid, biceps, triceps, and brachioradialis were recorded during the simulation and analyzed for muscle fatigue using root mean square (RMS), median frequency (MF), and jointed EMG amplitude and spectrum analysis (JASA). After completion of each task, Borg scale was used to query the volunteers of their subjective fatigue. A 2-min rest was required between each distance. Results The kinematic data from motion capture showed that in the entire process of the task, the right upper limb was higher when lifting, with the right shoulder joint maintaining flexion and fluctuating periodically between abduction and adduction, external and internal rotation, the right elbow joint maintaining flexion and supination. The frequency of task cycle showed a significant effect on the Borg scale scores (P<0.001, partial \begin{document}$ {\eta }^{2} $\end{document}=0.464); the distance showed no significant effect on the Borg scale scores (P>0.05, partial \begin{document}$ {\eta }^{2} $\end{document}=0.002); their interaction effect was not significant (P>0.05, partial \begin{document}$ {\eta }^{2} $\end{document}=0.020). The results of the sEMG signals showed that at a distance of 4.5 m, the volunteers had the highest percentages of maximal voluntary electrical activation (MVE%) in the deltoid and right brachioradialis and the lowest MF values in the deltoid and left brachioradialis after completing 5 task cycles. The results of JASA showed that fatigue was observed in brachioradialis and deltoid after completing 5 task cycles at a distance of 4.5 m, the right deltoid and right brachioradialis at a distance of 3.5 m, in the brachioradialis, deltoid, and left bicep at a distance of 2.5 m. Conclusion The subjective fatigue of workers who engaged in breaking/connecting contact terminal elevates with more repetitive operations. Based on the sEMG and motion capture analysis, it can be found that improper distance between the workers and the target work area can increase the burden from poor posture and improper use of work equipment, and lead to muscle fatigue; the deltoid and brachioradialis are the key muscles of fatigue in this type of operation; changing the angle of the elbow joint and the shoulder joint during the process of the operation can affect the deltoid and brachioradialis exertion and loading.

Background Power grid is an important component of the national infrastructure. The occupational health issues among the workers in this industry are attracting great concern nationwide. Objective To investigate the prevalence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in neck and shoulder among the power distribution workers of power supply enterprises, and analyze the related influencing factors. Method In April 2023, a total of 1244 workers in 50 municipal power supply bureaus were randomly selected from the three provinces under China Southern Power Grid using cluster sampling method. The questionnaire used in the study was based on a revised Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire and added ergonomic load of upper limb work. \begin{document}$ {\chi }^{2} $\end{document} test and logistic regression model were used to explore the influencing factors of neck pain and shoulder pain among the subjects. Results A total of 1244 valid questionnaires were recovered and the effective recovery rate was 90.87%(1244/1369). The positive rates of neck pain and shoulder pain were 45.5% (566 cases) and 36.3% (452 cases) respectively. The logistic regression analysis results showed that more than 20 years working age (OR=2.27, 95%CI: 1.39, 3.96; OR=2.56, 95%CI: 1.53, 4.26), often (OR=2.08, 95%CI: 1.35, 3.20; OR=2.40, 95%CI: 1.50, 3.58)/quite often (OR=2.96, 95%CI: 1.73, 5.04; OR=2.72, 95%CI: 1.49, 4.94) maintaining a forced posture, and working immediately after break (OR=1.72, 95%CI: 1.04, 2.85; OR=2.14, 95%CI: 1.19, 3.88) were associated with a higher positive rate of neck pain and shoulder pain respectively. Feeling sufficient rest (OR=0.61, 95%CI: 0.47, 0.80; OR=0.63, 95%CI: 0.50, 0.83) and opportunity to decide when to take breaks (OR=0.72, 95%CI: 0.53, 0.98; OR=0.62, 95%CI: 0.41, 0.93) were associated with a lower positive rate of neck pain and shoulder pain respectively. Conclusion The positive rates of neck pain and shoulder pain are high among power distribution workers. The main influencing factors included long working age, quite often maintaining a forced posture, and working immediately after break.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and safety of OLV anesthesia about infant lung resection of CCAM by video-assisted thoracicscopy. Methods Endo-tracheal intubation was performed after 43 CCAM infants had undergone rapid intravenous induction. One side of lungs was ventilated by injecting 4 ~ 6 mmHg CO2 for the construction of artificial pneumothorax, and the side lung was compressed forming OLV. SpO2, ECG, MAP, PETCO2, T, PaO2, PaCO2, bleeding volume and urine volume were monitored. The numerical value of SpO2, PaO2, HR, MAP, PETCO2, and PaCO2 were recorded at scheduled intervals. Results Compared with 5min after induction,the PaO2,HR and MAP of the infants significantly reduced; the PETCO2 and PaCO2 significantly increased at OLV at 10 min and 60 min. Compared with OLV at 10 min, the PaO2, PETCO2 significantly increased at OLV 60 min. Conclusion Appropriate respiratory management and drug usage are feasible and safe for infant surgery of CCAM by video-assisted thoracicscopy.

The guidelines for the early management of patients with ischemic stroke from the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association in 2013 recommend antiplatelet therapy with aspirin alone,but did not recommend other antiplatelet agents and the combination of a variety of antiplatelet drugs.However,since 2013,a great deal of published literature has shown that dual antiplatelet agents are superior to single antiplatelet agent in the prevention and treatment of ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack.In addition,they evaluated the safety of the treatment of dual antiplatelet therapy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the application of non-contrast and contrast-enhanced 18FDG PET/CT in the delineation of gross tumor volume ( GTV ) of pancreatic cancer.MethodsBetween Jan.2008 and Dec.2009,twenty-one patients with unresectable locally advanced pancreatic cancer or recurrent pancreatic cancer after surgery in our hospital had both non-contrast CT and PET images acquired at the same body position.Among the whole group,eleven patients also had contrast CT images.The image data sets were transferred to the treatment planning workstation for registration.Then gross tumor volumes ( GTV )were delineated independently using the information of PET images,contrast/non-contrast CT scan and contrast/non-contrast PET-CT fusion images.The differences of mean volume in these different sets of GTV were analyzed.Results For the whole group,the mean volume of non-contrast GTVCT,GTVPET,noncontrast GTVPET-CT were 76.9 cm3,47.0 cm3 and 44.5 cm3,respectively.The mean volume of non-contrast GTVPET-CT was significantly smaller than non-contrast GTVCT ( z =-3.91,P =0.000 ).For the eleven patients with contrast CT,the mean volume of contrast GTVCT,GTVPET,contrast GTVPET-CT were 64.1 cm3,45.1 cm3 and 49.3 cm3,respectively.The mean volume of contrast GTVPET-CT was significantly smaller than contrast GTVCT (z =-2.13,P =0.033 ).No significant differences were found between contrast PET-CT and non-contrast PET-CT (z =-0.80,P =0.424).ConclusionsCo-registration of PET and contrast/noncontrast CT information in pancreatic cancer may improve the accuracy of GTV delineation,and possibly reduce the adverse effect of irradiation.
