Background With China's socioeconomic development, significant lifestyle changes have occurred among occupational groups, leading to alterations in cardiovascular metabolic risk factors. However, few studies have examined the secular trends of these risk factors in China's working population. Objective To analyze the trends in cardiovascular metabolic risk factors among the occupational population in nine provinces of China from 2009 to 2018, and to explore the associations between different occupational types and these risk factors, along with their clustering patterns, thereby providing evidence for targeted interventions. Methods This study utilized data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) in 2009, 2015, and 2018. The dataset covered 13274 employed individuals aged 18-59 years. Only participants with complete blood test results and physical measurement data were included in the final analysis. The average annual percentage change (AAPC) in the positive rates of risk factors was calculated using Joinpoint regression to analyze temporal trends. Multinomial logistic regression and binary logistic regression models were employed to examine the cross-sectional associations between occupational types (categorized as white-collar workers, agricultural workers, blue-collar workers, service workers, and others) and nine cardiovascular metabolic risk factors and their clustering (defined as having ≥2 risk factors) in 2018. Results A total of 8451 participants were included. From 2009 to 2018, significant increasing trends (AAPC>0, P<0.05) were observed for overweight, obesity, central obesity, borderline elevated triglycerides (TG), borderline elevated to elevated total cholesterol (TC), borderline elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), elevated blood pressure and hypertension, diabetes. The most rapid increases were found for obesity (AAPC=6.07%, 95%CI: 3.42%, 8.88%), hypertension (AAPC=4.10%, 95%CI: 0.62%, 7.77%), and central obesity (AAPC=3.27%, 95%CI: 1.24%, 5.36%). The clustering rate of risk factors increased from 62.3% in 2009 to 73.2% in 2018 (AAPC=1.87%, 95%CI: 1.02%, 2.73%). The cross-sectional analysis in 2018, after adjusting for confounders, showed that compared with white-collar workers, blue-collar workers had a significantly lower risk of overweight (OR=0.67, 95%CI: 0.48, 0.95), central obesity (OR=0.65, 95%CI: 0.45, 0.92), and borderline high TG (OR=0.54, 95%CI: 0.35, 0.82). In contrast, agricultural workers had a higher risk of hypertension (OR=1.76, 95%CI: 1.14, 2.72). Conclusion Between 2009 and 2015, the burden of most cardiometabolic risk factors increases significantly among the Chinese occupational population, with the rate of increase slowing by 2018. Risks vary across occupational types, among which blue- collar workers report lower target outcomes. Targeted interventions focusing on the rapidly increasing risk factors and high-risk occupational groups are recommended.

Background With rising obesity rates and earlier hypertension onset among occupational populations, there is an urgent need to elucidate the long-term cardiovascular impacts of dynamic body weight patterns. Current evidence lacks trajectory modeling studies examining occupation-specific prevention strategies. Objective To investigate the association between long-term body mass index (BMI) trajectories and incident hypertension risk in Chinese working adults, and to examine occupation-specific heterogeneity in this relationship. Methods A dynamic sub-cohort of 4 413 occupational participants was constructed from ten survey waves (1991–2018) of the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS). Eligible individuals had valid key BMI records at three or more independent follow-ups before the outcome event; the individual baseline was set as the year of their first participation in the survey. Group-based trajectory modeling (GBTM) was used to identify BMI change patterns. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for hypertension incidence across trajectory groups, with stratified analysis by occupational categories. Results Among 4413 occupational participants, 1441 incident hypertension cases were reported during the follow-up window. Three long-term BMI trajectories were identified: low-stable, moderate-slowly rising, and high-rising. In Model 3 with all selected confounders adjusted, compared with the low-stable group, the moderate-slowly rising group showed a significantly higher risk of incident hypertension (HR=1.28, 95%CI: 1.12, 1.45; P < 0.001), as did the high-increasing group (HR=1.80, 95%CI: 1.45, 2.23; P < 0.001). The stratified analyses revealed occupational differences in the association. Among agricultural workers, the moderate-slowly rising group (HR=1.35, 95%CI: 1.15, 1.57) and the high-rising group (HR=2.00, 95%CI: 1.50, 2.66) both exhibited significantly increased risks of hypertension (P<0.001). Conversely, among white-collar workers, an increased risk of hypertension was observed only in the high-rising group (HR=1.97, 95%CI: 1.23, 3.17; P<0.05). Conclusion Rapid BMI escalation constitutes a significant risk factor for incident hypertension in occupational populations. Targeted long-term weight monitoring and tailored interventions are recommended for high-risk occupations.

Based on the traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） theories of body fluid metabolism and turbid phlegm obstructing the orifices， and drawing on recent advances in cerebrospinal fluid-interstitial fluid （CSF-ISF） exchange， glymphatic clearance， and extracellular matrix （ECM） regulation， this article discusses the possible scientific connotation of "invisible phlegm" from the perspectives of pathogenesis， clinical manifestations， and therapeutic implications. Impaired brain fluid exchange may lead to reduced clearance， the retention of metabolic wastes and pathological proteins. Abnormal ECM remodeling may further disrupt molecular diffusion and local microenvironmental homeostasis， resulting in a pathological process characterized by slowed fluid movement， reduced clearance， and abnormal retention. This process bears a certain functional resemblance to the TCM pathogenesis of impaired distribution of body fluids， endogenous formation of turbid phlegm and obstruction of the brain orifices， and may also be associated with manifestations such as a clouded sensation in the head， cognitive abnormalities， and emotional disturbances. On this basis， the potential effects of certain phlegm-dissolving Chinese medicines in improving brain clearance function and extracellular microenvironmental homeostasis warrant further investigation. We therefore propose that， the "invisible phlegm" of TCM in brain tissue may manifest as a pathological retention state characterized by restricted fluid exchange， impaired clearance function， and extracellular microenvironmental imbalance. This perspective may provide a new avenue for investigating TCM treatment of neurological and psychiatric disorders from the perspective of phlegm.

Colorectal cancer(CRC)is a malignant tumor formed in the colon or rectum,usually caused by uncontrolled growth and division of normal cells in the body.Cell apoptosis,pyroptosis,and necroptosis are key pathways of cell death in colorectal cancer.The comprehensive treatment strategy includes the synergistic effect of cell death inducers with chemotherapy,immunotherapy,and targeted therapy.Traditional Chinese medicine plays an important role as an adjuvant therapy in regulating cell death.The combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine has shown significant effects in precancerous lesions,improving efficacy,reducing adverse reactions,and reducing drug resistance.Although the research on the mechanism of cell death is not yet sufficient,emphasizing the unique characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine,clarifying the anti-tumor mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine,and achieving modern scientific internationalization of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine treatment for colorectal cancer have become future research directions.This article will comprehensively review the molecular mechanisms of cell apoptosis,pyroptosis,and necroptosis from the perspective of combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine,as well as their regulatory role in the treatment of colorectal cancer.

Objective: To investigate the availability and use of child safety seats among children aged 0-3 years, so as to provide the basis for improving riding safety for children. Methods: Parents of children aged 0-3 years in Huangpu District, Shanghai Municipality, were recruited using the stratified multistage random sampling method from May to July 2024. Demographic information, family travel patterns, the use of child safety seat and related health beliefs were collected using questionnaire surveys. Factors affecting the use of child safety seats were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 514 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective rate of 96.98%. The respondents included 122 fathers (23.74%) and 392 mothers (76.26%), with a median age of 34.00 (interquartile range, 5.00) years. There were 446 families equipping with child safety seats, accounting for 86.77%; and 169 families using child safety seats, accounting for 32.88%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the parents who had children aged >1-2 years (OR=0.597, 95%CI: 0.366-0.973), travelled 2-4 times per month (OR=0.359, 95%CI: 0.213-0.607) or once per month or less (OR=0.384, 95%CI: 0.202-0.729), and scored high in perceived barrier (OR=0.634, 95%CI: 0.486-0.827) were less likely to use child safety seats; the parents who had children with local household registration (OR=2.506, 95%CI: 1.356-4.633), travelled 5-<10 km (OR=1.887, 95%CI: 1.148-3.101) or ≥10 km (OR=2.319, 95%CI: 1.355-3.967), always wore seat belts (OR=2.342, 95%CI: 1.212-4.524), scored high in perceived susceptibility (OR=1.392, 95%CI: 1.091-1.778) and self-efficacy (OR=1.413, 95%CI: 1.156-1.727) were more likely to use child safety seats. Conclusions Equipping family cars with child safety seats and using them can prevent and reduce traffic injuries among children aged 0-3 years. It is recommended to strengthen publicity to promote the use of child safety seats.

Objective To investigate the effect of progressive muscle relaxation training intervention strategy in relieving fatigue of elderly patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)after receiving transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(T ACE),and to analyze its influencing factors.Methods Using convenience sampling method,a total of 150 elderly patients with HCC,who received TACE at a certain grade Ⅲ-A hospital at Peking of China from May 2021 to March 2023,were selected as the subjects of research.The patients were randomly divided into the study group and the control group,and progressive muscle relaxation training intervention strategy and conventional postoperative fatigue care method were employed respectively.The preoperative fatigue status and the postoperative fatigue recovery status were compared between the two groups,and the influencing factors were analyzed.Results In both groups,the postoperative one-day fatigue score was the highest,which was gradually decreased thereafter.The average recovery time of fatigue in the control group was 9.84 days,which in the study group was 6.16 days,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P=0.013).The body mass index(BMI),Child-Pugh classification,and preoperative grip strength index had an effect on the postoperative fatigue recovery time after intervention.A BMI of β=-0.953 and a preoperative grip strength index of β=-0.185 were negatively correlated with the postoperative fatigue recovery time after intervention,while a Child-Pugh classification of β=2.177 was positively correlated with the postoperative fatigue recovery time after intervention.Conclusion Progressive muscle relaxation training intervention strategy is helpful for shortening the postoperative fatigue recovery time in elderly patients with HCC after receiving TACE,and it is worth of promotion in clinical practice.The patient's nutrition and physical status such as BMI,hepatic reserve function and grip strength index,are the factors influencing the effectiveness of progressive muscle relaxation training intervention strategy.

Based on the etiology and clinical diagnostic criteria of type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM）， identification and typing of treatment from the perspective of traditional Chinese and western medicine， the criteria for evaluating the clinical compatibility of traditional Chinese and western medicine in animal models of T2DM were set up. The literature was reviewed to sort out and analyze the existing commonly used modeling methods， summarize the mechanism， compare the advantages and disadvantages， and calculate the consistency between the animal model and the clinical symptoms， syndromes， and indicators from the perspective of traditional Chinese and western medicine. The authors found that spontaneous animal models and high-fat diets combined with multiple low-dose streptozotocin （STZ） induction models were more in line with modern medical pathogenesis of T2DM. However， it fails to form some special syndromes required for traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） research. In addition， there are many methods of combining the etiology and pathogenesis of TCM， which can be divided into three categories： intervention carried out by drug administration， behavioral stimulation， or environmental changes according to TCM， or use of hormones according to clinical evidence and combination of the two methods mentioned above. All of them can successfully establish different types of animal models. However， different methods of establishing syndrome models have their own advantages and disadvantages， and there is no unified standard for the stability and evaluation of syndrome models. As for the clinical consistency criteria of traditional Chinese and western medicine established in this paper， the animal model with 100% consistency has not been calculated due to the conditions of incomplete symptoms and syndromes described in the studies and different selection indicators. Consequently， the establishment of a simple， easy-to-use， and affordable T2DM animal model with both traditional Chinese and western medicine disease characteristics and the improvement of the Chinese and western medicine evaluation system for different evidence types are of great significance for the future development of TCM research on T2DM.
