The Hazardous Drug Exposure Management: Information for Healthcare Settings (2023 Edition) released by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) of US provided detailed protection recommendations for medical personnel to mitigate the risks of occupational exposure to hazardous drugs. This study reviewed the literature in terms of hazard identification, occupational exposure assessment, risk assessment, risk management planning, and waste and spill control. It also explored the precautions for each step of hazardous drug handling, aiming to raise medical personnel's awareness of hazardous drug protection and improve their self-protection skills. The findings provided valuable references for medical institutions to develop hazardous drug disposal plans and reduce employees' exposure to hazardous drugs and occupational injuries.

Objective: To explore the clinical and imaging characteristics of patients with regional odontodysplasia accompanied by hypodontia and to provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods: This report presents the imaging manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of a case of regional odontodysplasia (RO) accompanied by hypodontia. It includes a retrospective summary of the dynamic changes in the imaging characteristics of the affected teeth over a 5-year period, along with a comparative analysis of the literature. The patient was a 9-year-old female who presented to the Clinic of Oral Rare and Genetic Diseases of our hospital with the chief complaint of “discomfort for over seven months following the extraction of the teeth in the left mandibular region.” Based on her clinical manifestations and imaging findings, she was diagnosed with RO in the left mandible and with hypodontia of permanent teeth 12 and 34. A treatment plan was formulated, and long-term follow-up was conducted. The current radiographic images were compared with previous imaging data to summarize the developmental changes in her teeth, and a comparative analysis was also performed with the literature to identify similarities and differences with previously reported RO dental characteristics. Results: During the follow-up period, the patient's symptoms did not worsen, and a conservative observation approach was adopted; the treatment plan was decided after the eruption of the affected teeth. By comparing and analyzing imaging data from three ages (4.5, 8.5, and 9 years old), it was determined that the deciduous and permanent teeth in the left mandible of this patient exhibited typical “ghost” radiographic features, alongside hypodontia of teeth 12 and 34, as well as the delayed development of tooth 35. A literature review and analysis indicated that RO manifests clinical characteristics such as delayed tooth eruption, reduced tooth size, and yellow crowns, along with typical “ghost” radiographic appearances. Treatment requires a personalized approach based on the patient’s specific condition. To date, only five cases of RO patients with hypodontia have been reported, while the delayed development of permanent tooth buds has not yet been documented. Conclusion For patients with RO, dynamic imaging evaluation plays a critical role in early diagnosis. RO is associated with hypodontia and delayed tooth germ development. Long-term follow-up and personalized treatment plans are the key to RO treatment.

The operating room is the core settings of various surgical treatments, and exhibits distinct attributes and systemic complexities. Medical staff who work long term in operating rooms face multiple exposures to potential health hazards. Especially with the progress of electrosurgical technology and the frequent use of electrosurgical equipment, the possible health effects of the resulting electrosurgical smoke to those working in operating rooms have gradually attracted attention. This paper reviewed the composition, hazard, exposure risk monitoring, and protective measures of electrosurgical smoke, aiming to deepen the understandings of potential health risks of electrosurgical smoke, improve the self-protection awareness of medical staff, strengthen attention to electrosurgical smoke protection in all hospitals, and ensure the occupational safety of medical staff.

Objective To preliminarily analyze the influencing factors of benign thyroid nodule malignant transformation and provide a basis for early intervention of benign thyroid nodule malignant transformation. Methods Selected 158 patients with benign thyroid nodules who visited our hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 for inclusion in the study, and followed up for 3 year to observe whether the nodules had malignant changes. The age, gender and dietary habits were collected. 3 mL of fasting venous blood of subject were collected , and the level of TT3, TT4, FT3, FT4, TSH, TgAb, CEA, thyroglobulin and calcitonin were collected. Results The results of this study suggest that the plasma levels of serum TgAb, TSH, TT4, TT3, FT3, FT4, CEA, thyroglobulin, and calcitonin of subjects were not statistically significant between sexes. The results of univariate analysis showed that compared with non malignant group, the patients in malignant nodule group were younger, the longest diameter of nodule was smaller, TgAb level was higher, TSH level was higher, FT3 level was lower, the proportion of internal calcification was higher, thyroglobulin level was higher, CEA level was higher, calcitonin level was higher, and the proportion of abnormal lipid metabolism and glucose metabolism was also higher, which was statistically significant (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that TgAb positive, internal calcification, increased carcinoembryonic antigen level, dyslipidemia, elevated thyroglobulin level, and abnormal glucose metabolism, elevated calcitonin level were associated with the increased risk of node canceration, and increased total FT3 level was associated with the reduced risk of canceration (P<0.05). Conclusion TgAb positive, internal calcification, increased carcinoembryonic antigen level, small nodule diameter, abnormal blood lipids, elevated thyroglobulin level, low total FT3 level, abnormal glucose metabolism, and elevated calcitonin level are associated with the increased risk of malignant transformation of benign thyroid nodules, which should be paid attention to clinically.

Objective To study the status of diabetic foot and its related factors in Hanzhong area in recent years, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and management of diabetic foot complicated by type 2 diabetes. Methods A stratified sampling method was used to select 528 patients with type 2 diabetes among permanent residents in Hanzhong from April 2016 to April 2022. Relevant medical history and laboratory examination data were collected, and the incidence of diabetic foot was calculated. The influence of related factors on the risk of diabetic foot was analyzed by regression model. Results Among 528 subjects in this study, the disease course and body type of T2DM showed that male patients had significantly longer disease, and the proportion of overweight and obesity was higher, P<0.05. The incidence of diabetic foot was 16.29% (86 cases). The proportion of male patients and female patients was 24.66% and 5.93%（χ²=27.516，P<0.05）. The proportion of male patients complicated with diabetic foot was higher than that of female patients (P<0.05). At the same time, the incidence of Wagner Grade I was higher in males than in females (P<0.05). The effects of potential factors on the risk of diabetic foot were discussed by gender. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the risk factors of diabetic foot in male T2DM patients included: Increased course of disease, increased age, poor blood glucose control, increased total cholesterol level, increased BMI level and increased platelet to lymphocyte ratio . Potential risk factors in women include increased course of disease, age, poor blood sugar control (increased glycosylated hemoglobin levels) and increased platelet to lymphocyte ratios in all cases（P<0.05）. Conclusion The current prevalence rate of type 2 diabetes patients complicated with diabetes foot in Hanzhong area is 16.29%, which is still high , and the prevalence rate of men is significantly higher than that of women. Older age, long duration of T2DM, poor blood glucose control, increased total cholesterol level, increased blood uric acid level, decreased urine pH value, and increased platelet lymphocyte ratio are potential risk factors for diabetes foot. Male patients should also pay attention to the occurrence of overweight and obesity tendency to reduce the risk of diabetes foot.

OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for clinically rational drug use and pharmaceutical care for patients with diabetes complicated with hyperlipidemia induced by immunosuppressive agents after liver transplantation. METHODS Clinical pharmacists participated in the treatment of a patient with diabetes complicated with suspected hyperlipidemia induced by immunosuppressive agents after liver transplantation. Due to the poor glucose control of the patient， the clinical pharmacists assisted the doctor in adjusting the glycemic control plan： subcutaneous injection of 18， 12 and 16 units of Insulin lispro injection before meals， and subcutaneous injection of 16 units of Insulin glargine injection before bedtime. Due to the occurrence of hyperlipidemia in the patient， clinical pharmacists clarified the possible cause of abnormal blood lipid elevation was using immunosuppressants by reviewing the timeline of dose adjustment of immunosuppressive agents and changes in blood lipid levels based on relevant guidelines. Clinical pharmacists suggested using Rosuvastatin calcium tablets 5 mg， qd for lipid-lowering treatment， reducing the dosage of Mycophenolate mofetil capsules and Tacrolimus capsules to 500 mg， bid and 2 mg， bid， respectively. Medication education and pharmaceutical care were also carried out. RESULTS The doctor adopted the advice of the clinical pharmacists. After treatment， the levels of blood glucose and blood lipid in the patient improved， and he was allowed to be discharged with medication. CONCLUSIONS Clinical pharmacists provide pharmaceutical services such as recommending the addition of statins， adjusting the dosage of immunosuppressive agents， and conducting pharmaceutical care to optimize individualized medication plans for patients and ensure the safety and effectiveness of medication.

OBJECTIVE To establish the analysis methods of 33 banned pesticides in Ginkgo Biloba leaves and the extracts, and conduct the risk assessment study. METHODS One hundred and thirty-six batches of Ginkgo Biloba leaves and 58 batches of Ginkgo Biloba leaves extract were detected by UPLC-MS and GC-MS. The acute and chronic intake risk of pesticide residues in samples were calculated by point assessment method, and the risk scores of the pesticides were calculated by the Britain veterinary residues matrix ranking. RESULTS Six kinds of banned pesticides were detected in 136 batches of Ginkgo Biloba leaves, the total detection rate was 35.29%, and the detection amount was 0.002−0.210 mg·kg−1. The chronic dietary intake risk was 0.018%−0.620%, and the acute dietary intake risk was 0.000 1%−0.014 0%, indicated that the dietary exposure risk of pesticides in Ginkgo biloba leaves was at a low level. Two kinds of banned pesticides were detected in 58 batches of Ginkgo Biloba leaves extract, the detection rate was 55.17%, and the detection amount was 0.002−1.788 mg·kg−1. The percentage of acceptable daily intake was 0.003%−0.143%, and the percentage of acute reference dose was 0.002 4%, which was also at a low level. Risk ranking results indicated that the risk of phorate was the highest and should be focused on the production and safety supervision. CONCLUSION The method has good stability, high precision and promising repeatability, which can be used for the detection of 33 prohibited pesticides in Ginkgo biloba leaves and their extracts. The results show that the residual amounts of 33 banned pesticides in Ginkgo Biloba leaves and its extracts were extremely low, and there is no significant health risks.

Objective: To investigate the current status and relationship between loneliness and negative emotional symptoms among first generation college students in the family, so as to provide reference for improving mental health of this population. Methods: A convenience sampling method was used to select 3 017 college students from 10 colleges and universities in Guangdong Province and Yunnan Province, China, in May 2023. Questionnaires were administered to the students, and the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21) and the short form of the University of California at Los Angeles Loneliness Scale (ULS-6) were employed. Results: The total ULS-6 score of first generation college students in the family was (12.38±4.16), while the score of non first generation college students in the family was (11.89±4.38), with a statistically significant difference ( t=2.79, P <0.05). The total DASS-21 score of first generation college students in the family was (71.13±26.97), while the score of non first generation college students in the family was (70.20±26.66), with a statistically significant difference ( t=2.69, P <0.05). Among the first generation college students in the family, male students experienced more DASS-21 score (77.55±29.36) than female students (70.43±25.03)( t =5.79, P <0.05). Urban students (12.00±4.15, 70.34±25.68) reported lower levels of loneliness score and DASS- 21 score than rural students (12.62±4.15, 74.93±27.63), and the depression subscale scores showed statistically significant differences among students with different professional achievement rankings ( t/F =-3.42, -3.94, 4.25, P <0.05). There was a positive correlation between loneliness, depression, anxiety, pressure and DASS-21 scales of first generation college students in the family ( r=0.64, 0.62, 0.64, 0.66, P <0.01). The linear regression analysis results showed a positive correlation between loneliness and all dimensions and total scores of the DASS-21, explaining 44% of the variance in negative emotional symptoms. Conclusions A positive correlation is found between loneliness and negative emotional symptoms among first generation college students in the family. Improving the loneliness of the first generation college students in the family can reduce their negative emotional symptoms and improve their mental health level.
