Background Depressive symptoms have become a significant factor affecting the physical and mental health of the occupational population, and workers in petroleum refining enterprises face multiple stressors in their work environment. Objective To explore the impact of occupational noise exposure on depressive symptoms among workers in a petroleum refining enterprise. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted in July 2024 using a questionnaire survey among workers of a petroleum refining enterprise in Hainan Province. Basic information of the subjects was collected. The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) was used to measure depressive symptoms, the Chinese version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scale was used to assess sleep quality, and the Chinese version of the Effort-Reward Imbalance (ERI) scale was used to evaluate occupational stress. Chi-square test was employed to compare the differences in reporting depressive symptoms among populations with different characteristics. Binary logistic regression models were used to analyze the impact of occupational noise exposure and other factors on depressive symptoms. Results The overall positive rate of depressive symptoms in the study population was 42.7%. The results of the multifactor analysis indicated that compared with the control group, employees in both the low-exposure and high-exposure groups had elevated odds of depressive symptoms, with OR (95%CI) of 2.244 (1.131, 4.454) and 1.970 (1.009, 3.850), respectively. This association remained robust after adjusting for potential confounders, including gender, age, work tenure, and other occupational exposures. Additionally, female [OR (95%CI)=1.483 (1.039, 2.118)], exposure to benzene, toluene, or xylene [OR (95%CI)=1.621 (1.208, 2.174)], sleep disturbance [OR (95%CI)=3.772 (2.942, 4.838)], and occupational stress [OR (95%CI)=2.018 (1.575, 2.585)] were also significantly associated with higher odds of depressive symptoms. Conclusion The positive rate of depressive symptoms is relatively high among employees in this petrochemical enterprise, and occupational noise exposure may be a risk factor for depressive symptoms.

Objective:To investigate the impact of receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), as well as the predictive performance of RIPK3 combined with traditional cardiovascular risk factors.Methods:This study was a single-center prospective cohort study. It included patients with AMI who underwent PCI at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between September 2017 and November 2017. Baseline clinical data were collected, and plasma samples were obtained 6 hours after PCI to measure RIPK3 levels. Follow-up was conducted via outpatient visits or phone calls to record the occurrence of MACE, including cardiovascular death, hospitalization for heart failure, and vascular events (recurrent AMI or stroke). The predictive performance of RIPK3, traditional cardiovascular risk factors and their combination for MACE was compared using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Patients were divided into low- and high-RIPK3 level groups based on the optimal cutoff value of RIPK3. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to assess the impact of RIPK3 levels on MACE after PCI in AMI patients. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted, and the log-rank test was used to compare MACE incidence between the low-and high-RIPK3 groups.Results:A total of 103 AMI patients who underwent PCI were included, aged 63.0 (56.0, 69.0) years, and 83 (80.6%) were male. The follow-up time was 5.17 (2.81, 5.17) years, during which 44 patients (42.7%) experienced MACE. The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve ( AUC) for traditional cardiovascular risk factors was 0.68 (95% CI: 0.58-0.78), while the AUC for plasma RIPK3 was 0.72 (95% CI: 0.62-0.82). The combined AUC for traditional risk factors and RIPK3 was 0.75 (95% CI: 0.65-0.85). Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis indicated that plasma RIPK3 level is greater than or equal to the optimal cutoff value of 440.9 μg/L ( HR=3.31, 95% CI: 1.53-8.30, P=0.005) was an independent risk factor for MACE in AMI patients after PCI. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis demonstrated that the high-RIPK3 group had a significantly higher risk of MACE after PCI compared to the low-RIPK3 group (log-rank P=0.006). Conclusions:Elevated plasma RIPK3 level is an independent risk factor for MACE in AMI patients after PCI. Plasma RIPK3 combined with traditional cardiovascular risk factors can more effectively predict the occurrence of MACE in AMI patients after PCI. AMI patients with RIPK3≥440.9 μg/L have a higher risk of MACE after PCI.

Objective To explore the effect of health education through different postoperative follow-up method, including telephone、Email and QQ, on patients with indwelling D-J stents. Methods 319patients with indwelling D-J stents were divided into the control group(88 cases), the telephone group(89 cases), the Email group (70 cases) and the QQ group (72 cases). M1 patients received rourine health education during hospitalization and before discharge, the latter three groups received follow-up by telephone、Email and QQ after discharge respectively. The rehabilitation effect was observed in the four groups. Results The complication rates of the telephone group, the Email group and the QQ group was significantly less and the mastering of knowledge about prevention and handling of complication was better than the control group during the follow-up. Conclusions Different types of follow-up can be selected by patients according to their actual status. Decreasing complication rate, favorable social benefit and approval of the patients family members will be seen due to involvement of the patients family in health education.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of pancytopenic acute leukemia(PAL) and hyperleukocytic acute leukemia(HAL). Methods 183 patients with primary AL were analyzed retrospectively and divided into three groups according to patients' hemogram. Results Among these patients, 38 cases(20 8%) were PAL(group A), 42 cases(23 0%) were HAL(group B) and 103 cases(56 3%) were generic type(group C). 23 0% cases of acute myeloid leukemia(AML), 56 3% acute promyelocytic leukemia and 16 9% acute lymphoblastic leukemia( ALL) appeared PAL. The manifestations of group A were mainly milder infiltration of extra-bone marrow, more severe cytopenias. The early mortality, short and long-term effectiveness were similar to those of group C. 23 8% AML, 51 2% acute monoblastic leukemia and 18 6% ALL presented HAL. There were higher tumor burden,obviously infiltration of extra-bone marrow, higher early mortality, more refractory treatment, poorer prognosis in group B as compared with group A or C. Conclusions Pancytopenia or hyperleukocytosis were common manifestations in primary AL. It is important to understand these features of patients' hemogram for diagnosis, treatment and prognosis evaluation of leukemia.
