The worksite survey of occupational disease diagnosis is a series of occupational health investigations in the workplace initiated by the occupational disease diagnosis institution or the public health administrative department in order to understand whether there is a causal relationship between the workers' diseases and the workplace in the process of occupational disease diagnosis and verification. The main purpose of the worksite survey is to find out whether there are occupational hazards that cause health damage to workers in the workplace, and to analyze whether there is a causal relationship between the exposure to occupational hazards at the corresponding concentration (intensity) and the diseases suffered by workers. In actual work, it is necessary to determine whether it is necessary to organize worksite survey according to the legal situation and actual work of occupational disease diagnosis. The mainly works of worksite survey includes three aspects: preliminary preparation, survey implementation and survey report writing. It is necessary to pay attention to the key and difficult tasks such as preparation before survey, survey plan and questionnaire, complexity and uncertainty of worksite survey and sampling and detection of occupational hazard factors in workplace. After the worksite survey,it is necessary to write a written occupational disease on-site investigation report to provide objective, reliable and scientific evidence for occupational disease diagnosis.

ObjectiveThis study aims to explore the potential mechanism of the Xiezhuo Jiedu formula in regulating pyroptosis for the treatment of ulcerative colitis （UC） using bioinformatics and in vivo animal experiments. MethodsDifferentially expressed genes （DEGs） in colon tissues of UC patients were retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus （GEO） database. Pyroptosis-related genes were obtained from the GEO and GeneCards databases. The intersection of these datasets yielded pyroptosis-related DEGs （Pyro-DEGs）. Pyro-DEGs were subjected to Gene Ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment analysis using the Metascape database. A protein-protein interaction （PPI） network was constructed using the STRING database. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator （LASSO） prediction model and receiver operating characteristic （ROC） analysis were conducted to identify core Pyro-DEGs with diagnostic and therapeutic potential. Immune infiltration analysis of the UC datasets was performed using the deconvolution method （CIBERSORT）， along with correlation analysis with core Pyro-DEGs. Sixty male Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into a control group， a model group， high-， medium-， and low-dose groups of Xiezhuo Jiedu formula （26.64， 13.32， 6.66 g·kg^-1）， and a mesalazine group （0.27 g·kg^-1）， with 10 rats in each group. UC was established by intrarectal administration of 3，5-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid （TNBS） dissolved in ethanol. The control and model groups were given distilled water by gavage， while the treatment groups were administered the corresponding drugs for 7 consecutive days. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe the colon histopathology. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the levels of inflammatory factors such as interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， IL-10， IL-18， and transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β）. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） and Western blot were applied to detect the expression of Caspase-1， gap junction alpha-1 protein （GJA1）， peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma （PPARG）， and S100 calcium-binding protein A8 （S100A8）. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was utilized to measure mRNA expression of Caspase-1， GJA1， PPARG， and S100A8. Western blot was performed to assess protein expression levels of Caspase-1， GJA1， PPARG， and S100A8. ResultsGEO datasets GSE87466 and GSE87473 yielded 64 Pyro-DEGs. KEGG analysis indicated that these genes were enriched in the NOD-like receptor signaling pathway， tumor necrosis factor （TNF） signaling pathway， and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 （HIF-1） signaling pathway. Four core Pyro-DEGs （Caspase-1， GJA1， PPARG， and S100A8） were identified. Immune infiltration analysis showed that expression of these genes was positively correlated with mast cells， neutrophils， M0 macrophages， M1 macrophages， and dendritic cells. Animal experimental results indicated that compared with the control group， the model group had significantly increased levels of IL-1β and IL-18， significantly decreased levels of IL-10 and TGF-β. The model group showed enhanced Caspase-1， GJA1， and S100A8 staining， and significantly increased mRNA and protein expression of Caspase-1， GJA1， and S100A8 （P<0.01）. In contrast， the expression of PPARG was reduced in the model group （P<0.01）. After treatment， all dosage groups showed varying degrees of improvement （P<0.05， P<0.01）， with the high-dose group showing the most significant improvement （P<0.01）. ConclusionCaspase-1， GJA1， PPARG， and S100A8 are core Pyro-DEGs closely associated with the pathogenesis of UC. These genes may collaborate with immune cells such as mast cells， neutrophils， and M0 macrophages to mediate disease development. The Xiezhuo Jiedu formula may regulate the expression of core Pyro-DEGs through the NOD-like receptor， TNF， and HIF-1 core signaling pathways， thereby modulating immune homeostasis in UC rats and effectively alleviating UC.

Objective: To study the effect of metformin sensitizing pancreatic cancer cells with radiotherapy, with a focus on elucidating the underlying mechanisms of radiotherapy resistance. In particular, the role of the PERK/P-eIF2/ATF4 signaling pathway in mediating these effects was preliminarily explored. Methods : Pancreatic cancer cell lines(PANC-1 and PANC-2) were categorized into control, radiotherapy, and drug treatment groups. Following the respective treatments, cell proliferation inhibition was assessed using the CCK-8 assay, colony formation assays, and cell death staining. Senescence was quantified by β-galactosidase(SA-β-Gal) staining. The expression of cell cycle regulators(P21, P16, γ-H2AX), apoptosis markers(Bax, Bcl-2, Cleaved caspase-3), and pathway-related proteins(PERK, P-eIF2, ATF4) was evaluated by Western blot and immunofluorescence. To further investigate the role of the PERK/P-eIF2/ATF4 axis in metformin-mediated modulation of pancreatic cancer cell senescence and radiosensitization, selective inhibitors(GSK2606414) and agonists(MK-28) of PERK were employed. Results : Radiotherapy markedly upregulated senescence-associated markers(P21, P16, γ-H2AX, and β-galactosidase activity) in pancreatic cancer cells. Senescent cells exhibited enhanced proliferative activity and increased tumor volume both in vitro and in vivo. Metformin mitigated radiotherapy-induced senescence by reducing the expression of senescence markers and significantly suppressing the clonogenic and proliferative capacity of treated cells. Mechanistically, radiotherapy activated the PERK signaling pathway, leading to increased expression of PERK, P-eIF2, and ATF4, thereby driving cellular senescence. Pharmacological inhibition of PERK reduced β-galactosidase activity, while PERK activation further promoted the expression of senescence-associated proteins—an effect that was reversed by metformin. Conclusion Metformin inhibits the activation of the PERK/P-eIF2/ATF4 signaling pathway in pancreatic cancer cells following radiotherapy, thereby delaying cellular senescence and reducing the associated radiotherapy resistance of senescent cells. This modulation contributes to the sensitization of pancreatic cancer cells to radiotherapy.

Objective:To explore the surgical efficacy of conductive deafness caused by otosclerosis and ossicular malformation with 980 nm fiber laser stapedial floor fenestration.Methods:Data of 58 patients (ears) who were diagnosed with conductive deafness caused by otosclerosis (49 ears) and ossicular malformation (9 ears) treated by 980 nm Diode laser small-fenestra stapedotomy were retrospectively analyzed. Air conduction (AC) thresholds, bone conduction (BC) thresholds, and air-bone gap (ABG) at 0.5, 1, 2, 4 kHz pure tone frequencies were compared before and 3 months after surgery, and the advantages and precautions of 980 nm fiber laser were summarized. Paired t-test (SPSS 26.0 software) was use to analyze the listening data. Results:Fiber optic laser stapes fenestration and artificial stapes implantation were successfully completed in all 57 cases (ears), the hearing of another one patient (ear) with floating malformation of detachment of stapedial floor was lower than that before surgery. Preoperative at 0.5, 1, 2, 4 kHz frequencies of AC thresholds, BC thresholds, and ABG were (65.4±9.7) dB, (27.2±8.9) dB, and (38.2±9.8) dB respectively. Postoperative 3 months at the same frequency of AC thresholds, BC thresholds, and ABG were (42.1±11.3) dB, (26.9±6.6) dB, and (15.2±9.1) dB. Preoperative and postoperative of AC threshold and ABG were statistically significant at 0.5, 1, 2, 4 kHz ( t value was 13.270 and13.948, both P<0.01), and yet the BC threshold was not statistically significant before and after surgery at the same frequency ( t=0.418, P>0.05). Conclusions:980 nm fiber laser stapes floor fenestration is an effective treatment for conductive deafness caused by otosclerosis and ossicular malformation.

Objective:To analyze the levels of serum soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1),soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(sVCAM-1),and superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity in the patients with maintenance hemodialysis(MHD),and to discuss their relationships with coronary artery calcification(CAC).Methods:The clinical materials from 102 MHD patients(MHD group)were retrospectively analyzed.Additionally,74 volunteers underwent routine health examination at the same time(health examination group)were selected.The CAC scores(CACs)of the patients in MHD group were detected by multi-slice computed tomography(MSCT),and the patients were categorized into non-calcification group,mild calcification group,moderate calcification group,and severe calcification group.The general data and serum levels of sICAM-1,sVCAM-1,and SOD activities of the subjects in two groups were compared.The levels of calcium(Ca),phosphorus(P),parathyroid hormone(PTH),sICAM-1,sVCAM-1,and SOD activities in serum of the patients with different degrees of calcification were analyzed.Pearson's correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlations between the levels of sICAM-1,sVCAM-1,and SOD activity in serum of the MHD patients and CACs.Results:Compared with health examination group,the levels of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 in serum of the patients in MHD group were significantly increased(P<0.01),and the SOD activity was significantly decreased(P<0.01).Compared with non-calcification group,the levels of PTH,sICAM-1,and sVCAM-1 in serum of the MHD patients in mild,moderate,and severe calcification groups were significantly increased(P<0.05),and the SOD activities were significantly decreased(P<0.05);the levels of P in serum of the MHD patients in moderate and severe calcification groups were significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with mild calcification group,the levels of P,PTH,sICAM-1,and sVCAM-1 in serum of the MHD patients in moderate and severe calcification groups were significantly increased(P<0.05),and the SOD activities significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with moderate calcification group,the levels of sICAM-1,sVCAM-1,and P in serum of the MHD patients in severe calcification group were significantly increased(P<0.05),and the SOD activity was significantly decreased(P<0.05).The SOD activity in serum of the MHD patients was negatively correlated with CACs(r=-0.484,P<0.01),while the levels of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 were positively correlated with CACs(r=0.441,P<0.01;r=0.561,P<0.01).Conclusion:The levels of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 and activity of SOD in serum of the MHD patients are abnormal.With the decreasing of the SOD activity and increasing of the levels of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1,the degree of CAC in the MHD patients is aggravated.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

BACKGROUND:It has been demonstrated that osteoclast activation plays an important role in skeletal system-related diseases.The mechanism of regulation of osteoclast activation by extracellular vesicles carrying non-coding RNA has not been fully elucidated. OBJECTIVE:To review and summarize relevant literature in and outside China,and to review the regulation of osteoclast activation by different non-coding RNAs in extracellular vesicles in different diseases,so as to provide a certain direction for subsequent research. METHODS:"Non-coding RNA,miRNA,lncRNA,circRNA,snoRNA,osteoclasts,extracellular vesicles,exosome,microparticle,apoptotic bodies"were used as search terms to search the databases of CNKI,WanFang,and VIP."Extracellular vesicles,exosome,microparticle,apoptotic bodies,non-coding RNA,miRNA,lncRNA,circRNA,snoRNA,osteoclast"were used as search terms to search PubMed.Finally,71 articles were included. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The activation of osteoclasts is affected by many factors,among which the specific mechanism of non-coding RNA regulating osteoclast activation is not clear.(2)Extracellular vesicles can be secreted by osteoblasts,bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,tumor cells and other cells.As a carrier of intercellular communication,extracellular vesicles can carry non-coding RNA to regulate osteoclast activation.(3)In the current studies on the regulation of osteoclast activation by extracellular vesicles carrying non-coding RNA,most of the diseases are osteoporosis,followed by tumor bone metastasis,and most types of non-coding RNA are miRNA.(4)There are relatively few studies on the regulation of extracellular vesicles carrying lncRNA and circRNA and snoRNA on osteoclast activation,and the regulatory mechanism is mainly ceRNA mechanism.(5)In conclusion,an in-depth study of the regulatory mechanism of extracellular vesicles carrying non-coding RNA on osteoclast activation is helpful to find key targets for the treatment of skeletal system-related diseases.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between CHA 2DS 2-VASC score and the recurrence risk of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Methods:It was a retrospective cohort study. A total of 150 patients who underwent radiofrequency ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in Xingtai People′s Hospital from January 2017 to January 2021 were consecutively included in the study. According to the preoperative CHA 2DS 2-VASC score, patients were divided into high score group (≥3 points, n=90) and low score group (<3 points, n=60). Baseline clinical data was collected. All patients underwent circumferential pulmonary vein isolation, and those with atrial flutter before ablation also underwent tricuspid isthmus isolation. Holter and electrocardiogram examinations were performed at 3, 6 months and 1 year after ablation to evaluate whether there was recurrence of atrial fibrillation. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the risk factors for recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Results:Among 150 patients 90 were males and 60 were females with a mean age of (64.0±3.6) years. There were no significant differences in age, sex, and proportion of hypertension, diabetes, chronic heart failure and stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), medication of antiarrhythmic and anticoagulant drugs between the two groups (all P>0.05). The longest duration of atrial fibrillation in the high score group was significantly longer than that in the low score group (26.0±6.1) hours vs. (10.0±2.1) hours, P<0.05). There were no patients with cardiac tamponade, atrial esophageal fistula and severe vascular puncture complications in the two groups. During the follow-up period, the recurrence rate in the high score group was significantly higher than that in the low score group (16.7% (15/90) vs. 8.3% (5/60), P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that CHA 2DS 2-VASC score≥3 was an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation recurrence in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation ( HR=3.84, 95% CI: 1.87-7.89, P=0.02). Conclusion:CHA 2DS 2-VASC score≥3 is an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation recurrence in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with typical atrial flutter after radiofrequency ablation.Methods:This study was a case-control study. The clinical data of 120 patients with typical atrial flutter who underwent radiofrequency ablation in Xingtai People′s Hospital from January 2017 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were followed up every 3-6 months for a period of 2 years, and AF occurred in 30 patients (25.0%). The risk factors of AF were analyzed with univariate and multivariate logistic regressions.Results:The mean age of patients was (62.0±6.5) years and 64(53.3%) were males. No patients in the two groups had complications such as cardiac tamponade, pulmonary embolism and cerebral infarction after radiofrequency ablation. Compared with non-AF patients, patients in AF group had older age and higher CHA 2DS 2-VASC score ( P<0.001). Multivariate regression analysis showed that age ( HR=1.09, 95% CI:1.01-1.17) and CHA 2DS 2-VASC score ( HR=3.84, 95% CI:1.87-7.89) were independent risk factors for the occurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation in patients with atrial flutter. Conclusion:After radiofrequency ablation of typical atrial flutter, nearly 25% of patients will relapse into AF, old age and higher CHA 2DS 2-VASC score increase the risk of AF recurrent.
