Background Health literacy is closely related to mental health, and improving health literacy has been shown to promote mental well-being. However, whether occupational stress among workers in mining and manufacturing is associated with their occupational health literacy remains inconclusive. Objective To study the levels of occupational health literacy and occupational stress among workers in three industrial sectors (metal ores mining, metal smelting, and manufacture of non-metallic mineral products) in Gansu Province, and to analyze the correlation between them. Methods Between May and December 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to survey workers from 73 large, medium, and small and micro sized enterprises across the aforementioned industries in Gansu Province. Participants’ occupational health literacy and occupational stress levels were assessed. The LASSO regression model was applied to identifykey factors influencing occupational stress, and subsequently a multilevel random intercept mixed-effects logistic model was used to study factors influencing occupational stress and to explore the relationship between occupational health literacy and occupational stress. Results A total of 3611 workers across the three industries were surveyed, among whom 1031 (28.55%) experienced occupational stress. Workers with adequate occupational health literacy—whether assessed in terms of overall literacy or specific dimensions—demonstrated a significantly lower prevalence of occupational stress compared to those without adequate literacy (P<0.05). Through the LASSO regression analysis, it was found that the factors closely related to occupational stress were dimension one (occupational health legal knowledge), dimension two (basic knowledge of occupational health protection), and dimension four (healthy working methods and behaviors) of occupational health literacy, gender, average monthly income, and night shifts. The results from the three-level random intercept mixed-effects logistic regression model indicated that dimensions one (OR=0.69, 95%CI: 0.58, 0.82), two (OR=0.71, 95%CI: 0.58, 0.87), and four (OR=0.81, 95%CI: 0.67, 0.98) of occupational health literacy were negatively correlated with the risk of occupational stress. Workers with an average monthly income of 3001–≤5000, 5001–≤7000, and ≥7001 yuan reported occupational stress risks that were 61% (OR=0.61, 95%CI: 0.45, 0.81), 56% (OR=0.56, 95%CI: 0.41, 0.78), and 36% (OR=0.36, 95%CI: 0.24, 0.53) of those with an average monthly income ≤3000 yuan, respectively. Male workers (OR=1.66, 95%CI: 1.32, 2.10) and those on night shifts (OR=2.29, 95%CI: 1.90, 2.76) had a higher risk of occupational stress. The random effects variance showed that the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.12. Conclusion There is a negative correlation between occupational stress and occupational health literacy among workers in mining and manufacturing. Being male, having a low income, and working night shifts are risk factors affecting workers' occupational stress. It is recommended to focus on these groups of workers and incorporate occupational health literacy into workplace mental health promotion.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and effectiveness of full free-breathing cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in clinical practice.Methods:The study prospectively included patients who underwent full free-breathing CMR and traditional breath-holding cine imaging between June 1 and June 30, 2024. An analysis and comparison were conducted on the image acquisition time, image quality, and left ventricular function parameters under two scanning methods, including left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular cardiac output (LVCO),left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular end diastolic volume index (LVEDVI), left ventricular end systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular end systolic volume index (LVESVI), left ventricular stroke volume (LVSV), and left ventricular mass (LVM). In addition, the study conducted both quantitative and qualitative analyses of other sequences in full free-breathing CMR, including T 1 mapping, T 2 mapping, flow imaging, and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). Group comparisons were performed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test or paired t-test. Consistency assessments included Bland-Altman analysis, intraclass correlation coefficient ( ICC), and linear regression analysis. Results:Totally, 150 patients were recruited into the study. The average acquisition time of full free-breathing CMR was (22.1±3.1) min, with an average short axis cine sequence examination time of (2.7±0.4) min; The average acquisition time of short axis images in a breath-holding state was (4.9±1.4) min, which was significantly longer than the cine scan in the free-breathing state ( P0.001). The cine and LGE images quality scores obtained from full free-breathing CMR were 4 (4, 4) points and 5 (4, 5) points, respectively, while the cine image quality score obtained in a breath-holding state was 5 (4, 5) points. Compared with traditional breath-hold CMR, free-breathing CMR measurements showed slightly higher LVESV, and LVESVI, while LVEDV, LVEDVI, LVSV, LVCO, LVEF, and LVM were slightly lower, except for LVSV and LVCO, which showed no statistically significant difference, the differences in other cardiac function parameters were statistically significant ( P0.05). However, the two methods demonstrated good consistency( ICC0.947) and correlation (0.808 r0.993, P0.001). The Bland-Altman analysis showed that the bias for all cardiac function parameters was within 8.0%. The Native T 1 and T 2 values for free-breathing CMR were (1 277.5±57.0) ms and 40.1 (38.5, 41.4) ms, respectively, and the results of flow imaging and echocardiography were basically consistent. Conclusions:Free-breathing CMR is feasible and effective in clinical practice, showing a high level of consistency with left ventricular functional parameters obtained from traditional breath-hold scanning. It significantly shortens examination time and holds great clinical value for the promotion and widespread use of CMR.

Objective:To explore the applied effectiveness of the Skin and/or tissue,Education,Cooperation,Understanding,Report and Evaluate (SECURE) nursing pathway based on action research method in the prevention process of medical device-related pressure injuries (MDRPI) of patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Methods:The SECURE nursing pathway based on action research method included the establishment of a skin care team to identify problems,and the formulation of conducting intervention plan,and the development of targeting nursing interventions to prevent the occurrence of MDRPI. A total of 84 patients hospitalized in the ICU of Hebei General Hospital from March 2022 to March 2023 were selected,and they were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group,with 42 patients in each group. The control group implemented routine method to prevent MDRPI during ICU treatment,while the observation group implemented SECURE nursing pathway based on action research method to conduct prevention. The MDRPI incidence,the quality scores of ICU nursing,the scores of the Short Form Health Survey-36 (SF-36) of patients,the assessment of the improvement of MDRPI patients,and the satisfaction of patients for nursing care were compared between the two groups. Results:The MDRPI incidence during ICU treatment in the observation group was 4.76％ (2/42),which was significantly lower than that in the control group,with a statistically significant difference (x2=11.052,P<0.05). The average scores for device usage,prevention assessment,positioning management and preventive nursing after nursing intervention in the observation group were respectively (88.45±2.05),(89.36±2.11),(89.25±2.15) and (91.45±2.25),all of which were significantly higher than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences (t=11.425,12.052,10.052,13.478,P<0.05). After nursing intervention,the average scores for physical function,social function,psychological function and material life as the SF-36 scale in the observation group were (85.47±2.05),(86.48±2.05),(88.46±2.15) and (90.25±2.44),respectively,which were respectively higher than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences (t=12.414,11.045,10.252,10.478,P<0.05). The occurrence time,improvement time of wound and ICU treatment time of presenting MDRPI patients in the observation group were respectively (4.05±0.54) days,(3.45±0.15) days,and (8.12±2.14) days. Compared to the control group,the occurrence time of the observation group was longer,while both the improvement time of wound and ICU treatment time of the observation group were shorter,with statistically significant differences (t=8.485,10.012,13.001,P<0.05). The satisfaction degree of nursing care of patients in the observation group was 95.24％ (40/42),which was significantly higher than that in the control group (x2=12.054,P<0.05). Conclusion:The SECURE nursing pathway based on action research method,which prevents MDRPI of ICU patients,can reduce the MDRPI incidence rate of ICU patients,and enhance the work quality of nursing care for MDRPI. It is helpful to the recovery of ICU patients,which can also shorten the treatment time of ICU patients.

Objective:To investigate gut microbiota differences between individuals with and without colorectal adenoma(CRA)and to identify gut microbes associated with CRA.Methods:This cross-sectional study analyzed the gut microbiota of 100 patients with CRA and 68 individuals without CRA(aged 40-75 years)who underwent colonoscopies between March 2021 and March 2022 at Tianjin Nankai Hospital.Fecal samples were sequenced for the V3-V4 region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene using the Illumina NovaSeq platform.Results:Compared to the non-CRA group,the CRA group exhibited reduced relative abundances of identified and unidentified Lachnospiraceae,with increased Faecalibacterium and Streptococcus.In the non-CRA group,the relative abundances of Coprococcus,unidentified Clostridiaceae,and Clostridium were higher.LEfSe analysis revealed significant enrichment of Gammaproteobacteria,Proteobacteria,Enterobacteriales,and Faecalibacterium in the CRA group,while the non-CRA group was enriched for Moraxellaceae,Acinetobacter,and Anaerostipes.Conclusions:These findings suggest a discernible disparity in the gut microbiota structure between CRA patients and individuals without adenoma.The enrichment of potential pathogenic taxa,such as Faecalibacterium and Streptococcus,in the CRA group suggests a possible association with adenoma development.

Objective To investigate the protective effects and potential mechanisms of the preparation of Abelmoschus manihot(L.)Medik(Jiahua Tablet)against acute radiation-induced myocardial injury,based on myo-cardial injury markers(sST2,cTnI)and oxidative stress damage-related indicators(SOD,MDA),and to provide new avenues for the prevention and treatment of radiation-induced heart disease(RIHD).Methods Sixty-nine patients with thoracic malignant tumor who received radiotherapy at the department of radiation oncology in Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from December 2023 to November 2024 were enrolled in the study.Participants were randomly divided into control group(n=38)and observation group(n=31).The control group received standard radiotherapy in conjunction with conventional medications for RIHD,while the observation group was additionally administered Jiahua Tablet alongside the same regimen.Both groups took medications continuously for 1 month.Changes in serum levels of sST2,cTnI,SOD,and MDA were compared between the two groups 3 days prior to radiotherapy and 7 days after radiological therapy.Results On day 7 post-radiotherapy,the levels of sST2 and cTnI in the control group were highly elevated,showing statistically significant difference(P<0.01).In contrast,the levels of sST2 and cTnI in the observation group showed only mild elevation,and no statistically significant difference was observed(P>0.05).Between-group analysis demonstrated that post-treatment sST2 and cTnI levels in the observation group were substantially lower compared to those in the control group,indicating statistically significant difference(P<0.05).After treatment,SOD level in the control group was considerably lower compared to its pre-treatment level,and marked statistical significance was observed(P<0.01).SOD level in the observation group demonstrated a downward trend compared to baseline value,indicating no statistical significance(P>0.05).Between-group analysis demonstrated that post-treatment SOD level in the observation group was substantially elevated compared to that in the control group,indicating a highly significant disparity(P<0.05).After treatment,MDA level in the control group was considerably higher compared to its pre-treatment level,and a marked statistical significance was observed(P<0.05),whereas MDA level in the observation group showed only a mild increase compared to baseline value,with no statistically significant difference(P>0.05).Between-group analysis demonstrated that post-treatment MDA level in the observation group was substantially lower compared to that in the control group,demonstrating a remarkably statistically significant difference(P<0.01).Conclusion The preparation of Abelmoschus manihot(L.)Medik(Jiahua Tablet)effectively inhibits acute radiation-induced myocardial injury,with its potential mechanism closely linked to the suppression of oxidative stress responses.

Objective To compare the difference,agreement,and axial length measurement success rate between biometers ZW-30 and IOLMaser 700 based on swept-source optical coherence tomography for the measurement of ocular bi-ological parameters in patients with cataracts.Methods A total of 126 cataract patients(233 eyes)who were advised to undergo cataract surgery at the Department of Ophthalmology at Beijing Tongren Hospital,Capital Medical University from January to February 2024 were included in this study.Two biometers were used to measure the axial length(AL),mean keratometry(Km),anterior chamber depth(ACD),lens thickness(LT),central corneal thickness(CCT),and horizontal corneal diameter[namely,the white-to-white(WTW)distance].The axial measurement success rate of the two biometers and the difference and agreement between the parameters were calculated.Results The mean difference between ZW-30 and IOLMaster 700 was(-0.006±0.042)mm for AL,(-0.074±0.204)D for Km,(0.031±0.051)mm for ACD,(0.001±0.005)mm for CCT,and(-0.286±0.337)mm for WTW,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The mean difference between ZW-30 and IOLMaster 700 was(0.008±0.215)mm for LT,and the difference was not statis-tically significant(t=0.579,P=0.563).The 95％limits of agreement range was between-0.011 mm and 0.000 mm for AL,between-0.474 D and 0.326 D for Km,between-0.010 mm and 0.012 mm for CCT,between-0.068 mm and 0.131 mm for ACD,between-0.116 mm and 0.159 mm for LT,and between-0.947 mm and 0.376 mm for WTW.The intra-class correlation coefficient of all measurements ranged from 0.790 to 1.000.The AL measurement success rate of IOLMaster 700 and ZW-30 was 95.3％and 95.7％,respectively.The latter had an AL measurement success rate of 98.7％after manually marking the position of the retinal identification line.Conclusion There were statistically significant differences between ZW-30 and IOLMaster 700 in the measurement of the AL,Km,ACD,and CCT,which,however,were not clinically significant.The agreement between both was good.ZW-30 had a higher AL measurement success rate,espe-cially for the manual identification function of eyes with opacified refractive media,which can further improve the AL meas-urement success rate and provide reference for clinical work.
