Objective: To understand classroom environmental conditions and their association with spinal curvature abnormalities among students of primary and secondary schools in Guizhou Province, so as to provide a basis for formulating school health policies and scientific prevention and control measures for abnormal spinal curvature in students. Methods: Using a stratified random sampling method, 471 schools (2 811 classrooms) were selected annually across the province from 2022 to 2024 in order to monitor and evaluate classroom environment according to national standards. Spinal examinations were conducted for 196 606 (2022), 194 876 (2023), and 195 048 (2024) students, and χ 2 test was used to analyze the correlation of desk and chair compliance with student spinal curvature abnormalities. Results: The qualified rates of classroom blackboard illuminance uniformity ( 85.41 %) and the blackboard size (82.24%) were the highest in primary and secondary schools in Guizhou Province, while the average blackboard surface illumination qualified rate (20.10%) was the lowest. The average desk illumination (50.11%-58.63%), desk illumination uniformity (61.92%-72.27%) and qualified noise rate (50.04%-51.94%) increased significantly in 3 years; in addition, the compliance rate of desks and chairs decreased from 25.00% to 13.52%, and the differences were all statistically significant ( χ 2=42.48, 80.93, 46.09, 129.72, all P <0.05). Middle school classrooms outperformed primary schools in terms of per capita area, average blackboard illuminance, blackboard illuminance uniformity, average desktop illuminance, desktop illuminance uniformity, and noise compliance ( χ 2=311.55, 12.41, 20.64, 40.76, 10.25, 52.47), but had lower compliance for blackboard size and reflectance ( χ 2=537.29, 7.59) (all P <0.01). Urban schools had higher compliance than suburban schools for per capita area, average blackboard illuminance, average desktop illuminance, and desktop illuminance uniformity ( χ 2=73.71, 17.68, 29.30 , 36.03), but lower compliance for desk-chair suitability, blackboard size, and blackboard reflectance ( χ 2=4.72, 26.02, 5.43 ) (all P <0.05). The spinal curvature abnormality detection rate was 0.83%. A significant association was found between abnormality detection and desk-chair non compliance ( χ 2=223.85, P <0.01). Conclusions Classroom environment hygiene in Guizhou schools is suboptimal. Strengthening school environmental hygiene infrastructure and greater attention to its impact on student s health are essential.

Objective: To understand the epidemiological characteristics of abnormalities spinal curvature among children and adolescents in Karst landform in Guizhou Province, so as to provide a scientific basis for targeted comprehensive intervention. Methods: From September to December 2023, 194 875 children and adolescents aged 6-18 were selected from all countieldistricts of 9 cities (prefectures) in Guizhou Province by stratified random cluster sampling method according to the proportion of Karst landform area in Guizhou Province for carrying out spinal curvature abnormality screening, and a questionnaire survey was conducted on 139 449 students in the fourth grade and above of primary school. Binary Logistic regression was used for multivariate analysis. Results: The detection rate of abnormal spinal curvature among children and adolescents aged 6-18 in Guizhou Province was 1.13%. The detection rates of abnormal spinal curvature in areas with a high proportion of Karst landform, areas with a low proportion of Karst landform, intercalation areas, and nonKarst landform areas were 1.10%, 2.00%, 0.90%, and 0.60%, respectively. Among them, the detection rates of abnormal spinal curvature in female students (2.40%, 1.60%, 0.90%) in areas with a low proportion of Karst landform, intercalation areas and nonKarst landform were higher than those in male students (1.60%, 0.10%, 0.30) (χ2=12.66, 112.69, 30.22, all P<0.05). The detection rates of abnormal spinal curvature among senior high school students (2.00%, 4.30%, 1.40%, 1.30%) in different Karst landform distributions were successively higher than those among junior high school students (1.40%, 3.20%, 1.00%, 0.60%) and primary school students (0.70%, 0.80%, 0.60%, 0.30%) (χ2=306.11, 175.80, 14.24, 39.57, all P<0.05). The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the detection rates of abnormal spinal curvature in both highproportion and lowproportion Karst landform areas were higher than those in nonKarst landform areas [OR(95%CI)=1.84(1.05-2.25), 1.60(1.23-2.09), both P<0.05]. Conclusion The detection rate of abnormal spinal curvature in children and adolescents aged 6-18 in Guizhou Province is related to the distribution of Karst landform, so it is necessary to strengthen screening and appropriate comprehensive interventions.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors of clinical pregnancy and live birth rates in patients undergoing frozen-thawed embryo transfer(FET)for the first time.Methods The clinical data of 1 458 patients who underwent FET cycle-assisted pregnancy for the first time were retrospectively analyzed and divided into four groups according to clinical pregnancy and live bith outcomes.The clini-cal data were compared to analyze the factors affecting clinical pregnancy and live birth rates in FET cycles that were included in multiple logistic regression analysis.Results Of the 1458 cycles,the clinical pregnancy and live birth rates were 44.0% and 34.0%,respectively.The mean age of the clinical pregnancy and live birth groups was lower than that in non-clinical pregnancy and stillbirth groups(P<0.05).The clinical pregnancy and live birth rates of patients aged<35 years were higher than those aged≥35 years(P<0.05).The clinical preg-nancy and live birth rates of patients with≥8 mm endometrial thickness were higher than those with<8 mm endometrial thickness(P<0.05).The clinical pregnancy rate of natural cycles of endometrial preparation regimen was higher than that of HRT cycles(P<0.05).The clinical pregnancy and live birth rates of double-embryo transfers were higher than that of single-embryo transfers(P<0.05).The clinical pregnancy and live birth rates of blastocyst transfers were higher than those of cleavage stage(P<0.05).Conclusion Age,endometrial thickness,number of transplanted embryos,and embryo morphology were the independent factors influencing clinical pregnancy and live birth outcomes during FET cycle transplantation.

Objective:To construct an evaluation framework with detailed indices for demonstration units (wards) of enteral nutrition nursing, in order to improve the competence of nurses in enteral nutrition nursing and inform the specialized development of enteral nutrition demonstration units (wards).Method:On the basis of literature review and expert discussion, a preliminary draft was developed, and the Delphi expert consultation method was used to conduct two rounds of consultation with 15 clinical experts in the field of enteral nutrition nursing from 15 tertiary hospitals.Results:The effective response rates of questionnaires in two rounds of consultations were both 100%. The first round of expert consultation showed an authority coefficient of 0.90 and a coefficient of variation of 0 to 0.167, while the second round showed an authority coefficient of 0.93 and a coefficient of variation of 0 to 0.113. The Kendall harmony coefficients were 0.338 and 0.368, respectively. Finally, the evaluation framework with detailed indices for the demonstration unit (ward) of enteral nutrition nursing was formed, which consisted of 3 primary indicators, 16 secondary indicators, 54 tertiary indicators, and 62 detailed items.Conclusions:The evaluation framework we developed for the demonstration unit of enteral nutrition nursing follows the diagnosis and treatment process of enteral nutrition management for inpatients, including the triad of structure, process, and outcome. The framework is objective and practical, and can inform the daily practice of enteral nutrition nursing demonstration units (wards) and the development of enteral nutrition nursing specialties.

Objective:To understand the nutritional nursing competence in the enteral nutrition demonstration wards at this stage, so as to inform subsequent training plan.Methods:From September to October in 2023, nurses from 287 institutions involved in the enteral nutrition demonstration ward construction project were selected using convenience sampling. Questionnaires on general characteristics and self-assessment scale on nutrition nursing competence were used for online survey. The status quo and influencing factors of nutrition nursing competence in included institutions were analyzed.Results:A total of 5 409 valid questionnaires were collected, with a response rate of 62.63%. The total score of nutrition nursing competence was 74.74±16.11, with the least subtotals in the domain of nutrtion knowledge. Multiple linear regression showed that influencing factors of nutrition nursing competence includes years of working, department, registered dietitian or not, nutrition management specialist or not, completion of the curriculum in enteral nutrition demonstration ward construction project, and training/supervision arranged by their department concerning nutrtion nursing and relevant evaluation criteria ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The nutritional nursing competence of clinical nurses in the wards involved in enteral nutrition demonstration ward construction project still needs to be improved. Seniors should take into consideration the varying nutritional nursing competence among junior nurses and nurses from different departments, and strengthen the training on nutrition knowledge. It should be encouraged for nurses to actively participate in nutritionist training. Actions including enhancing nutrition specialist training, establishing the multidisciplinary collaborative nutrition care team and conducting regular supervision and assessment should be implemented in the future, to improve the nutritional nursing competence among nurses.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective mechanism of Forsythia suspensa extracts(FSE)on S.aureus-induced inflammatory injury of rat mammary epithelial cells.Fifty lactating rats were selected and randomly divided into five groups with 10 rats each:the blank control group(the fourth pair of mammary glands were injected with saline),the model group(the fourth pair of mammary glands were injected with 100 pL of S.aureus bacterial solution),the high-dose group(the fourth pair of mammary glands were injected with S.aureus bacterial solu-tion for 24 h,and then the rats were administered by gavage of 3.750 g/(kg·d)FSE for 1-7 d),the medium-dose group(24 h after the fourth pair of mammary injections,the rats were adminis-tered by gavage 1.875 g/(kg·d)FSE for 1-7 d),and in the low-dose group(24 h after the fourth pair of mammary injections,the rats were administered by gavage 0.935 g/(kg·d)FSE for 1-7 d),blood samples were collected 24 h after the last administration of the drug and then the rats were executed.The results showed that the mammary tissue of the model group was severely dam-aged,and the mRNA expression of IKKβ,MyD88,NF-κB,and TLR4 was significantly increased in the mammary tissue(P＜0.05).The relative expression of IKKβ,MyD88,NF-κB,and TLR4 pro-teins in the mammary tissue of the model group was significantly decreased(P＜0.05)by medium and high doses of FSE compared with the model group.Therefore,FSE may play an anti-inflammatory role by inhibiting the Toll-like signaling pathway to improve S.aureus-induced inflammatory re-sponse in rat mammary epithelial cells and decrease the expression of the downstream pathway proteins IKKβ,MyD88,NF-κB,and TLR4.

Objective:To investigate the recent epidemic trends and spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of gonorrhea in China, and to provide a reference for precise prevention and control of gonorrhea.Methods:Data on reported cases of gonorrhea in China (not including Hongkong, Macau and Taiwan regions of China) were collected from the Infectious Diseases Surveillance System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System from 2018 to 2023. The trends in reported incidence rates of gonorrhea in China were analyzed using the Joinpoint regression model. Global spatial autocorrelation analysis with the Moran's index and global G-statistic, as well as local spatial autocorrelation analysis, were employed to explore the clustering patterns and hotspot regions of gonorrhea at the county level. In the spatiotemporal scanning analysis, a Poisson distribution model was employed to identify clusters of gonorrhea cases.Results:The reported incidence rates of gonorrhea in China decreased from 9.59 per 100 000 in 2018 to 7.35 per 100 000 in 2023, with an average annual percent change of -4.9%, but this decreasing trend was not statistically significant ( P = 0.11). The reported incidence rates of gonorrhea at the county level in China exhibited a significant positive global spatial autocorrelation, with the global Moran's indices ranging from 0.39 to 0.60 (all P < 0.001) ; the Getis-Ord general G test statistic Z (G) values were all greater than 1.96, indicating a high-value clustering pattern of gonorrhea cases. The local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that hotspot regions were predominantly distributed in southeastern coastal areas and southwestern China. A total of 70 clusters were identified through the spatiotemporal scanning analysis, and mainly located in southeastern coastal areas and southwestern China. Conclusions:In recent 6 years, the overall reported incidence rates of gonorrhea in China showed a fluctuating decline; there was a significant spatiotemporal clustering characteristic with regard to gonorrhea epidemic at the county level in China, and the hotspot regions were basically consistent with the spatiotemporal clusters, which were mainly distributed in southeastern coastal areas and southwestern China. Further investigation into the causes and precise prevention and control measures are needed.

Objective:To construct an aphasia assessment tool for Cantonese speakers.Methods:The CRRCAE framework was used to form a preliminary pool of entries. It was screened through 2 rounds of expert consultation using the Delphi technique. Eighteen experts from 13 class-3 grade-A hospitals in Guangdong Province participated.Results:The positive coefficients of the 2 rounds of consultation were 94.4% and 100%, with authority coefficients of 0.92 and 0.94, respectively. Moreover, Kendall′s W coefficient for the experts was 0.26 in the first round and 0.38 in the second, both significant at the 1% level of confidence. So agreement was good. The final assessment tool for Cantonese aphasia patients included nine first-level indicators and 30 second-level ones.Conclusions:An evaluation tool for Cantonese aphasia patients was developed which can serve as a reference for clinical diagnosis and efficacy evaluation in the clinic.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of quantitative reward points management in performance related pay to the staff in central sterile supply department(CSSD)and offer the insights into the staff pay.Methods A comparison method of pre-and post-control was employed in this study.The staff who received seniority related pay system in CSSD of the hospital from January to December 2020 served as a control group,while the same group of staff in the same department who received the pay based on quantitative reward points management from January to December 2021 served as an observation group.In the control group,the staff received equal pay.However in the observation group,a quantitative reward points system was applied,and the staff pays were dependent upon the reward points derived from technique proficiency,quality and efficiency of work and workload.The two groups were compared in terms of working efficiency,occurrence of errors(such as missing of instruments in sterilised packages,errors in package categories,package labels,collection and delivery items,and errors in operation of information system),and the satisfaction levels evaluated by user departments.Result After implementation of the system of quantitative reward points management,the working efficiency of CSSD staff and the satisfaction levels of the user departments were both significantly improved,while the errors were significantly dropped(P＜0.05).Conclusion Application of the quantitative reward points management in CSSD can enhance work incentive in CSSD staff,leading to an improvement in working efficiency and quality.

Objective To observe the value of ultrasound radiomics for distinguishing early and middle-late stage endometrial cancer(EC).Methods A total of 294 women with EC were retrospectively enrolled,including 196 in early stage and 98 in middle-late stage.The patients were randomly divided into training set(n=206)and validation set(n=88)at the ratio of 7∶3.Clinical data were compared between different stages,and a clinical model was constructed.Radiomics features were extracted and screened based on ultrasound data,and radiomics models were constructed with logistic regression(LR),random forest(RF),support vector machine(SVM),Gaussian naive Bayes(GNB)and extreme gradient boosting(XGBoost),respectively.Finally,a clinical-radiomics model was constructed.The value of each model for distinguishing early and middle-late stages EC was observed.Results Significant differences of age of consultation,menstrual disorders,abdominal pain and proportion of menopause were found between patients with early and middle-late stage EC(all P＜0.05).Among these 5 radiomics models,RF model had the highest area under the curve(AUC)for distinguishing early and middle-late stage EC.Pairwise comparison of clinical model,RF radiomics model and clinical-RF radiomics model showed that significant differences of AUC were found between each 2 models(all P＜0.05),and clinical-RF radiomics model had the highest AUC.Conclusion Ultrasound radiomics based on RF were helpful for distinguishing early and middle-late stage EC,and better diagnostic efficacy could be obtained through combining with clinical data.
