Objective To evaluate the disease risk of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VP) in aquatic products of raw food in Guangzhou. Methods VP detection was carried out in aquatic products of raw food sold in Guangzhou from 2009 to 2022. Gene sequence and wgSNP analysis of 30 VP strains (including 15 food strains and 15 patient strains) were performed for the detection rate of pathogenic VP. sQMRA was applied to assess VP risk of aquatic products of raw food. Results The detection rate of VP in raw aquatic products in Guangzhou was 7.30% (98/1 343). The detection rate of TDH virulence gene in patient strains was 86.70% (13/15) , and the detection rate of TRH was 6.67% (1/15). In 15 food strains, TDH and TRH were negative. The WgSNP analysis showed that 2 food strains had high similarity with the patient strains, indicating the same cluster. Risk assessment showed that the number of Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection cases caused by intaking aquatic products of raw food in Guangzhou was 384 ever year. Conclusion The detection rate of VP in aquatic products of raw food is high in Guangzhou , and the detection rate of VP virulence genes in aquatic products of raw food is low. Gene sequence and wgSNP analysis can be used for risk assessment of food pathogenic bacteria. The risk of disease of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in aquatic products of raw food is high.

Objective:To explore the hearing changes of children with different genotypes of SLC26A4 with enlarged vestibular aqueduct（EVA） using the linear mixed effect model（LMM）, providing evidence for the risk prediction of progressive hearing loss. Methods:A total of 48 children with EVA diagnosed in our hospital from January 2017 to January 2024. All subjects underwent two or more auditory tests. According to the results of deafness gene screening and sequencing, the genotypes are divided into: type A: homozygous mutation of c. 919-2A>G, type B: compound heterozygous or heterozygous mutation containing c. 919-2A>G, and type C: no mutation site of c. 919-2A>G of SLC26A4 gene. LMM was used to analyze the hearing thresholds change of 500 Hz, 1 000 Hz, 2 000 Hz, 4 000 Hz and the average in children with different genotypes with age. Results:A total of 92 ears, 314 audiograms of 48 children were included, the median number of audiograms was 3, the median age of initial diagnosis was 4 months, and the median follow-up time was 13 months. According to LMM, the standard deviation of random effects between patients and ears was large. There was no significant difference in hearing thresholds of different frequencies and the average in genotype A, genotype B, and genotype C, indicating that genotype had no effect on hearing threshold. There is an interaction between age and genotype. Taking genotype C as the reference, children with genotype B had the lowest increase in 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, and the average hearing threshold, followed by type A. Conclusion:EVA children exhibit substantial inter-individual/ear hearing threshold variability. Low-frequency thresholds progress slower than high frequencies. Genotype modulates progression rates, with wild-type（Type C） demonstrating fastest deterioration, supporting personalized auditory monitoring strategies.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the difference of genotypes and hearing phenotypes in infants with biallelic allele variant in GJB2,and to provide reference for clinical practice. METHODS One hundred and forty-two subjects with biallelic allele variant in GJB2 were recruited in Beijing Tongren Hospital from August 2012 to March 2024. All subjects received universal newborn hearing screening(UNHS),neonatal deafness genetic screening and audiological tests. The subjects were divided into three groups according to the genotypes:T/T groups(truncated/truncated mutations,59 cases),T/NT group(truncated/non-truncated mutations,50 cases) and NT/NT group(non-truncated/non-truncated mutations,33 cases). Three groups of genotypes,newborn hearing screening results,age at first diagnosis and hearing diagnosis results were analyzed. RESULTS The homozygous mutation of c.235delC/c.235delC was the dominant in T/T group(57.63％),the compound heterozygous mutation of c.235delC/c.109G>A was the dominant in T/NT group(74.00％),and the homozygous mutation of c.109G>A/c.109G>A was the dominant in NT/NT group(96.97％). The overall refer rate of UNHS was 80.28％,and the refer rate of T/T group was 89.83％,which was significantly higher than that of T/NT group 70.00％(P=0.009). The age of first diagnosis of 142 cases was (3.70±1.56) months,there was no significant difference between the three groups(P>0.05). In 142 cases,104 cases with hearing loss accounted for 73.24％,38 cases with normal hearing accounted for 26.76％. The proportion of confirmed hearing loss in T/T group was 100.00％,which was significantly higher than that in T/NT group 52.00％(P<0.001) and NT/NT group 57.58％(P<0.001). In side of hearing loss,of the 104 patients with hearing loss,86 cases(82.69％) had bilateral hearing loss and 18 cases(17.31％) had unilateral hearing loss. The proportion of bilateral hearing loss in T/T group was 100.00％,which was significantly higher than that in T/NT group 57.69％(P<0.001) and NT/NT group 63.16％(P<0.001). Among 190 ears of 104 patients with hearing loss,the degree of hearing loss was predominantly mild to moderate(63.16％),followed by profound(24.74％) and severe(12.10％). Among them,the T/T group was mainly marked by severe to profound hearing loss(58.47％),while both the T/NT group and the NT/NT group were mainly characterized by mild hearing loss(58.54％ and 74.19％),and the differences among the three groups were statistically significant(P<0.001). CONCLUSION In the T/T group,all patients were diagnosed as bilateral hearing loss at first diagnosis,and was mainly severe and profound hearing loss. The bilateral and unilateral hearing loss were 52.00％ and 57.58％ in the T/NT group and NT/NT group at first diagnosis respectively,and was mainly mild hearing loss.

MethodsA randomised， double-blind， placebo-controlled， multicentre study design was used to enroll 170 patients of SAP from nine centres， which were divided into 85 patients each in the trial group and control group with 1∶1 ratio. Both groups maintained the original western medicine treatment plan， and added Jiuxin Pill or placebo respectively， 2 pills （0.05 g） each time twicely for 28 days. The main outcomes were total exercise time （TED） in the exercise treadmill test and Seattle Angina Questionnaire （SAQ） scores including physical limitation （PL）， angina stability （AS）， angina frequency （AF）， treatment satisfaction （TS）， and disease perception （DP）. The secondary outcomes were exercise treadmill test indicators including heart rate recovery in 1 min （HRR1）， metabolic equivalents （METs）， maximum magnitude of ST-segment depression， and the Borg rating of perceived exertion scale， the average number of angina attacks per week， withdrawal and reduction rate of nitroglycerin， traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores， incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events. Safety indicators were evaluated and the occurrence of adverse events during the trial was recorded. Data was collected before treatment， day 28±2 in treatment period， and follow-up at day 56 which is 28±2 days after treatment period finished. ResultsEighty-four and eighty-five patients respectively from trial group and control group were included to the full analysis set （FAS） and safety analysis set （SS）. Compared with the group before treatment and with the control group after treatment， the trial group had higher TED， HRR1， and METs， and lower maximum magnitude of ST-segment depression and Borg rating of perceived exertion scores after treatment （P＜0.01）. Compared with the group before treatment and with the control group after treatment and at follow-up， the total SAQ score and scores of AS， AF， TS and DP of the trial group after treatment and at follow-up elevated， while the average number of angina attacks per week and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores reduced （P＜0.01）. There was no statistically significant difference in the withdrawal and reduction rate of nitroglycerin between groups （P＞0.05）. Major adverse cardiovascular events occurred in 1 case （1/84， 1.19%） in the trial group and 1 case （1/85， 1.18%） in the control group， and the difference between groups was not statistically significant （P＞0.05）. A total of 3 cases of adverse events occurred in the trial group （3/84， 3.57%）， and a total of 6 cases of adverse events occurred in the control group （6/85， 7.06%）， and there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between groups （P＞0.05）. ConclusionIn the treatment of SAP， Jiuxin Pill combined with conventional western medicine can further enhance exercise tolerance， improve quality of life， and demonstrate great safety.

Objective To analyze the status of occupational disease hazards in Shantou City for 2019 to 2022 and propose corresponding management measures. Methods Technical reports on various occupational-disease-specific activities in Shantou City from 2019 to 2022 were collected and the data were comprehensively analyzed. Results Among the 3 066 enterprises surveyed in the 2020 occupational disease hazard investigation in Shantou City, occupational hazards were reported in 2 982 enterprises (accounting for 97.3%), with 2 955 being small and micro enterprises, accounted for 99.1%(2 955/2 982). The exposure rate of occupational hazards was 58.7% (42 894/73 054) among workers in the surveyed enterprises, with dust and noise exposure rates of 59.7% and 77.8%, respectively. The reported rate of occupational disease hazard projects by employers, regular detection rate of workplace occupational hazards, detection rate of occupational medical examination among workers, and occupational health training rate of key responsible personnel and occupational health management staff were 8.4%, 1.4%, 2.4%, and 4.3%, respectively. The results of occupational hazards monitoring of workplace in key industries from 2019 to 2022 showed that noise had the highest rate of exceeding national standards workplace, followed by silica dust, accounting for 34.2% and 13.8%, with the on-site exceedance rate of 32.2% and 10.0%, respectively. From 2019 to 2022, 31 suspected occupational disease cases were identified in key occupational disease monitoring, including 27 suspected cases of occupational pneumoconiosis and four suspected cases of occupational noise-induced deafness. Conclusion The workers in Shantou City have a high exposure rate to occupational hazards, and the occupational health management level of employers remains low, with noise and silica dust being the most severe occupational hazards. It is essential to improve technical support and service system development for occupational disease prevention and treatment, strengthen supervision and management in key industries and positions, explore occupational health assistance mechanisms for small and micro enterprises, and enforce employers' responsibility in occupational disease prevention to protect workers' occupational health and safety.
