Objective To analyze challenges in translating exercise management evidence for patients with metabolism-associated fatty liver disease(MAFLD),develop actionable strategies,and evaluate the application of best evidence.Methods Utilizing the evidence translation model,the best evidence was implemented for MAFLD patients in 4 phases:evidence acquisition,baseline practice review,intervention,and outcome evaluation.We compared the knowledge of exercise management evidence,implementation rates of review indicators,completion of exercise programs,BMI,liver stiffness measurement,controlled attenuation parameters,and patient satisfaction among medical staff at a tertiary hospital in Fujian Province during baseline(March-May 2023),mid-practice(June-August 2023),and late-practice(September-November 2023)phases.Results A total of 88 patients were included at baseline review,95 during mid-practice,and 107 in late-practice.Significant improvements were observed in the implementation rates of 21 review indicators,nurses'knowledge,completion rate,BMI,and controlled attenuation parameters compared to the data at baseline(P＜0.05).Conclusion The application of best evidence in exercise management for MAFLD patients enhances nurses'knowledge,standardizes nursing practices,and reduces patients'BMI and controlled attenuation parameters.

This study retrospectively analyzed data from 25 patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) admitted to Peking Union Medical College Hospital and Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from January 2023 to June 2024. Patients receiving sufficient eculizumab treatment for at least 3 months and who completed hemolytic complex (CH50) level testing pre- and post-treatment for 3 and 6 months were selected. Blood routine, biochemistry, and the 50% CH50-related indicators were monitored pre- and post-treatment. Among these patients, 24 completed 6 months of treatment and CH50 testing. After 3 and 6 months of eculizumab treatment, all patients with PNH showed significant improvement in symptoms, with lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels decreasing from a baseline of (1 814.4 ± 924.8) U/L to (248.5 ± 61.0) U/L and (239.3 ± 44.8) U/L. Hemoglobin levels increased from a baseline of (73.9±14.4) g/L to (99.9 ± 21.3) g/L and (99.6 ± 19.8) g/L. The baseline CH50 level was (32.4±14.7) %, which decreased to 2.0% (1.0% –8.0% ) and 1.0% (1.0% –4.0% ) at 3 and 6 months posttreatment, respectively. At baseline, a linear correlation was found between CH50 and LDH levels ( P<0.001), and the trend of CH50 changes was significantly lower than LDH at 3 and 6 months post-treatment with eculizumab, with similar trends. However, no linear correlation was observed between CH50 and LDH levels or other parameters at 3 and 6 months of medication. Our case demonstrates that eculizumab is effective for PNH hemolysis treatment. The serum CH50 level may be a biomarker for complement blockade induced by eculizumab, which can, to some extent, reflect the intravascular hemolysis of PNH and the efficacy of eculizumab.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism by which Zuoguiwan improves the pancreas development in the gestational diabetes mellitus （GDM） model by observing the effects of Zuoguiwan on the expression of key regulatory factors in different stages of pancreas development. MethodsPregnant Wistar rats were randomly assigned into blank， model， insulin detemir （20 U·kg^-1） and Zuoguiwan （1.89 g·kg^-1） groups （n=18）. GDM was induced by peritoneal injection of streptozotocin on day 6.5 （E6.5d） in the embryonic stage， and the blank group was given an equal volume of sodium citrate buffer. The modeling performance was assessed by measuring the blood glucose of pregnant rats. Except the blank group and model group， pregnant rats in other groups were administrated with corresponding drugs from E9.5d to delivery. The random blood glucose of pregnant rats was monitored， and the embryos and offspring rats were measured for the length and weighed on E12.5d， E18.5d and day 21 after birth （B21d）. The Lee's index of rats on B21d was calculated. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was employed to measure the fasting insulin （FINS） levels of B22d rats and the Homeostasis Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance （HOMA-IR） was calculated. The serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， total bilirubin （TBIL）， total cholesterol （CHO）， triglyceride （TG）， high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL）， and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL） in E18.5d pregnant rats and B22d offspring were determined. The pathological changes in the pancreas of E12.5d， E18.5d and B22d rats were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Western blot was used to determine the protein levels of pancreatic duodenal homeobox 1 （Pdx1）， pancreas-specific transcription factor 1a （Ptf1a）， and sex-determining region Y-box protein 9 （Sox9） in the pancreas of E12.5d embryos， Pdx1， Nkx2 homeobox 2 （Nkx2.2）， and hairy and enhancer of split-1 （Hes1） in the pancreas of E18.5d embryos， and Pdx1， v-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog A （Mafa）， and NK transcription factor-related homeobox gene family 6 locus 1 （Nkx6.1） in the pancreas of B22d rats. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group showed elevated blood glucose levels in pregnant rats on B0d， E9.5d， E12.5d， E15.5d， and E18.5d （P<0.05， P<0.01）， decreased body weight and body length （P<0.01） and increased Lee's index in the offspring. In addition， the B22d offspring showed rising levels of FBG， FINS， HOMA-IR， AST， and TG （P<0.01）， a declined level of HDL （P<0.01）， and pancreatic acinous cells with edema and loose arrangement. The pregnant rats on E18.5d exhibited raised levels of ALT， AST， and TG （P<0.05， P<0.01） in the pancreas and a declined level of HDL （P<0.05）. The E12.5d embryos showed up-regulated protein levels of Pdx1， Sox9， and Ptf1a in the pancreas （P<0.01） and the E18.5d embryos exhibited down-regulated protein levels of Pdx1， Nkx2.2， and Hes1 in the pancreas （P<0.01）. The protein levels of Pdx1， Nkx6.1， and Mafa in the pancreas of B22d offspring were down-regulated （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the insulin group exhibited lowered blood glucose in pregnant rats on B0d， E15.5d， and E18.5d （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The offspring in all treatment groups showcased increased body weight and body length （P<0.01） and decreased Lee's index. The B22d offspring exhibited declined levels of FBG， FINS， and HOMA-IR in the insulin group （P<0.01） and lowered levels of FBG and HOMA-IR in the Zuoguiwan group （P<0.01）. The B22d offspring in all the treatment groups showed reduced levels of ALT， AST， TBIL， CHO， TG， and LDL， a raised level of HDL， and alleviated edema of pancreatic acinous cells. The pregnant rats on E18.5d demonstrated declined levels of TG and ALT （P<0.05， P<0.01） and an elevated level of HDL （P<0.05）. The pancreas of E12.5d embryos presented down-regulated protein levels of Pdx1 and Sox9 and an up-regulated protein level of Ptf1a in the insulin group （P<0.05）. The pancreas of E12.5d embryos in the Zuoguiwan group presented down-regulated protein levels of Pdx1， Sox9， and Ptf1a （P<0.01）. All the treatment groups showed up-regulated protein levels of Pdx1， Nkx2.2， and Hes1 in the pancreas of E18.5d embryos （P<0.01） and Pdx1， Nkx6.1， and Mafa in the pancreas of B22d embryos （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionZuoguiwan can promote the growth and development and ameliorate the pathological changes in the pancreas of the offspring of GDM model by regulating the expression of Pdx1 pathway-related regulatory factors in different stages of pancreas development.

Objective To analyze the factors influencing the occupational health literacy (OHL) level among workers in key industries from the perspectives of both individual workers and enterprises. Methods A total of 32 336 front-line workers from 12 key industries in the secondary industry in Guangdong Province were selected as the research subjects by a stratified cluster random sampling method. Their OHL level was investigated using Occupational Health Literacy Questionnaire of National Key Populations, and the influencing factors were analyzed. Results The OHL level of the research subjects was 48.5%. The OHL level of the research subjects in four dimensions from high to low was basic knowledge of occupational health protection, occupational health practice and behavior, legal knowledge of occupational health, and basic skills of occupational health protection (80.7%, 61.2%, 48.3% and 29.5%, respectively). The multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the OHL level of female workers was lower than that of males (P<0.05). Lower OHL was also associated with older age, lower education level, lower personal monthly income of workers (all P<0.01). The workers with length of service < 3 years and ≥ 20 years had lower OHL level than those with length of service 3-<10 years and 10-<20 years, respectively (all P<0.05). Workers in larger enterprises had higher OHL levels (all P<0.01). The OHL level of workers in the sixth category of industries with occupational injuries had higher occupational injury risks than those in the third and fourth categories (all P<0.05). The OHL levels of workers in state-owned enterprises, private enterprises, foreign-funded enterprises, and other enterprises were higher than that of workers in public institutions (all P<0.05). Conclusion The influencing factors of workers′ OHL in key industries of the secondary industry include individual factors (gender, age, education level, personal monthly income, length of service) and enterprise factors (enterprise size, enterprise nature and industry injury risk category). Female, older workers, those with lower education or income, and those with short length of service represent priority groups for OHL interventions, while small and micro enterprises are priority units for future workplace health promotion intervention.

Objective : To investigate the role of enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2)-trimethylated lysine 27 of histone H3(H3K27me3) axis in the dedifferentiation of thyroid cancer and its clinical value as a potential target for the treatment of anaplastic thyroid cancer(ATC). Methods : Immunohistochemical SP method was used to detect the expression of EZH2, H3K27me3, paired box gene 8(PAX8), thyroglobulin(TG) and thyroid transcription factor 1(TTF1) in ATC and papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) and their adjacent tissues. The relationship between EZH2 and thyroid differentiation markers(PAX8, TTF1, TG) was further analyzed by gene expression omnibus(GEO) database. ATC cell lines 8305C and BHT-101 were culturedin vitro. Real-time reverse transcription PCR(RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression of thyroid differentiation markers(TTF1, PAX8) mRNA in ATC cell lines treated with EZH2 inhibitor(GSK126), and evaluate the potential therapeutic effect of GSK126in vitro. The effects of GSK126 and BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib on the proliferation of ATC cell lines were observed by cell proliferation assay. Results : The expression of EZH2 in ATC tissues was significantly higher than that in papillary thyroid carcinoma and adjacent tissues(P<0.05). The expression of H3K37me3 in ATC tissues was significantly lower than that in PTC tissues(P<0.05). EZH2 was negatively correlated with PAX8 and TG expression levels, but not with TTF1 expression level.In vitroexperiments, GSK126 could reverse the expression of thyroid differentiation markers PAX8 and TTF1 in ATC cell lines. GSK126 combined with BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib could significantly inhibit the growth of ATC cell lines. Conclusion The EZH2-H3K27me3 axis plays an important role in regulating thyroid specific markers, and the inhibition of EZH2 by small molecular compounds is a promising target for ATC treatment in the future.

Objective To understand the instrument distribution and capacities of inter-laboratory comparisons among occupational medical examination (OME) institutions in Guangdong Province. Methods A total of 291 OME institutions in Guangdong Province that were within the validity period of filing in June 2024 and 101 OME institutions that participated in inter-laboratory comparisons in 2023 were selected as the study subjects. Their filing categories, instrument distribution and external quality assessment in laboratories were collected and analyzed. Results The location of 291 OME institutions distributed in 21 prefectural-level cities in the province, mainly in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) region, accounting for 68.4% of the total. The public hospitals, private medical institutions, the center for disease control and prevention and occupational disease prevention and treatment institutions (hereinafter referred to as "occupational prevention institutions") accounted for 61.2%, 28.5% and 10.3%, respectively. The filing rates for physical factors, chemical factors, and dust categories among OME institutions were 91.1%, 86.9%, and 86.6%, respectively. The average number of institutional instruments, from high to low, was 53.8, 38.8 and 38.2 per unit in occupational prevention institutions, private medical institutions and public hospitals, respectively. The passing rates of inter-laboratory comparisons among OME institutions of external quality assessment in laboratories among OME institutes in Guangdong Province, from high to low were occupational prevention institutions, public hospitals and private medical institutions (96.2% vs 86.8% vs 73.0%, P<0.05). Conclusion The regional distribution of OME institutes in Guangdong Province is unbalanced, mainly concentrated in the PRD region. Low overall level of OME capacity is found in public hospitals and private medical institutions. Leading by the occupational prevention institutions, public hospitals and private medical institutions should strengthen the development and investment in OME hardware, in order to improve the OME level.

Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of combined lienal polypeptide injection therapy in the treatment of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia（MPP）in children aged 3 to 14 years old in multiple clinical centers.Methods:A randomized，controlled，multi-center clinical study design was adopted.A total of 240 hospitalized children aged 3 to 14 years old with MPP from 7 hospitals from September 1，2023 to January 31，2024 were included.According to the severity of pneumonia，they were divided into the mild MPP group with 80 cases and the severe MPP/refractory MPP（SMPP/RMPP）group with 160 cases，and then randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group at a ratio of 1 ∶1，using the random number table method.After screening，subjects entered a treatment period of 5 to 7 days.The control group was treated with azithromycin，while the experimental group was treated with azithromycin plus lienal polypeptide injection .The recovery of lung CT，length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，whether mild cases developed into severe or refractory cases，duration of hormone use，use of intravenous immunoglobulin（IVIG），bronchoscopy treatment，and immune function were observed between the two groups to evaluate the efficacy of lienal polypeptide injection.Adverse events after medication，vital signs，blood routine，urine routine，liver function，myocardial enzymes，renal function，and electrocardiogram were observed to evaluate the safety. Results:A total of 231 subjects have completed the trial in the 7 hospitals，including 118 cases in the experimental group and 113 cases in the control group.Main observation index：the rate of lung CT aggravation in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group（2.6% vs 15.3%， P<0.01），and the difference was statistically significant.Secondary indexes：there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，duration of hormone use，whether IVIG treatment was used，the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases，and immunoglobulin between the two groups（all P>0.05）.However，the rate of cases of plastic bronchitis（PB）found under bronchoscopy in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group（0 vs 18.8%， P=0.03），and the difference was statistically significant.Among the mild MPP（72 cases），there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，duration of hormone use，whether IVIG treatment was used，the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases，and the improvement rate of lung CT between the two groups（all P>0.05）.However，compared with the control group，the rate of cases developing into SMPP/RMPP in the experimental group was less（24.3% vs 48.6%， P=0.03），and the difference in IgG before and after treatment was small［0.53（-0.04，1.18）g/L vs 1.33（0.48，2.25）g/L， P=0.01］.Among the SMPP/RMPP cases（159 cases），the rate of cases of PB found under bronchoscopy in the experimental group was less than that in the control group（0 vs 20%， P=0.04），and the rate of cases with aggravated lung CT in the experimental group was less than that in the control group（1.3% vs 19.5%， P<0.01），and the improvement rate of lung CT in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group（88.8% vs 75.3%， P=0.03），with statistically significant differences.There were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay，duration of fever，cough score，duration of hormone use，whether IVIG treatment was used，the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases，and immunoglobulin between the two groups（all P>0.05）.Two cases in the experimental group developed rashes，which improved after the drug was discontinued.There were no serious adverse reactions such as abnormal vital signs like dyspnea and cyanosis due to the use of lienal polypeptide injection.There were no obvious changes in blood routine，liver function，myocardial enzymes，renal function，electrocardiogram，and urine routine values before and after medication compared with the baseline. Conclusion:The combined use of lienal polypeptide injection in the treatment of MPP in children can reduce the probability of the transformation from mild cases to SMPP/RMPP，reduce the rate of aggravation of the image findings，promote the absorption of lung inflammation，reduce the rate of PB found under bronchoscopy，and has good safety.

Background Staff in tertiary hospitals are a high-risk group for occupational burnout. Timely identification and precise intervention are crucial for improving healthcare service quality. However, comparative studies on perceived stress and occupational burnout among hospital staff in different positions are lacking. Objective To describe the status of perceived stress and occupational burnout among hospital staff in different positions and compare the differences, explore the relationship between perceived stress and occupational burnout, and identify the influencing factors of occupational burnout. Methods In May 2022, 1526 hospital staff members were selected by convenience sampling from six tertiary hospitals in Guangzhou. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, the Chinese Perceived Stress Scale (CPSS), and the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Services Survey (MBI-HSS) to assess demographic characteristics, perceived stress, and occupational burnout. Chi-square test, one-way ANOVA, and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used to compare differences in perceived stress and occupational burnout among staff in different positions. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore possible correlation between perceived stress and occupational burnout. Multiple linear regression was conducted to identify influencing factors of occupational burnout. Results A total of 1388 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 90.96%. Among them, 437 nurses (57.0%), 273 physicians (58.6%), 24 pharmacists (57.1%), and 62 administrators (54.9%) reported positive perceived health risk stress (P=0.892). Additionally, 392 nurses (51.1%), 213 physicians (45.7%), 19 pharmacists (45.2%), and 53 administrators (46.9%) reported positive occupational burnout (P=0.005). Perceived stress was positively correlated with occupational burnout among nurses, physicians, pharmacists, and administrators (r=0.5973, 0.5687, 0.5464, and 0.5276, respectively; P＜0.01). The multiple linear regression identified perceived stress (b=1.4587, P＜0.001), job satisfaction (b=−7.4195, P＜0.001), self-rated health (b=−2.0428, P＜0.001), working years (b=−0.1135, P=0.016), and being a nurse (compared with an administrators) (b=3.2435, P=0.045) as significant factors for occupational burnout (P<0.001). Conclusion Perceived health risk stress and occupational burnout are common among hospital staff, with nurses experiencing significantly higher levels of occupational burnout compared to other positions. Hospital managers should pay more attention to staff with higher perceived stress, lower job satisfaction, poorer self-rated health, and shorter working years, particularly nurses.

Objective To analyze the occupational health literacy (OHL) level and its influencing factors of workers in non-metallic mineral product industry in Yunfu City. Methods A total of 947 frontline workers from 24 non-metallic mineral products enterprises in Yunfu City were selected as the research subjects using the stratified random sampling method. The OHL level of the workers were assessed using the Occupational Health Literacy Questionnaire of National Key Populations. Results The overall OHL level of the research subjects was 58.3% (552/947). The OHL levels across four dimensions, from highest to lowest, were basic knowledge of occupational health protection (94.7%), healthy work practices and behaviors (81.8%), legal knowledge of occupational health (65.5%), and basic skills of occupational health protection (25.9%). The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that workers with 2.0-<10.0 years and ≥10 years of work experience had higher OHL levels than those with <2.0 years of work experience (all P<0.01). Workers with a high school education or above had higher OHL levels than those with a junior high school education or below (all P<0.01). Workers in large- and medium-sized enterprises had higher OHL levels than those in small and micro-sized enterprises (both P<0.01). Conclusion The OHL levels of workers in Yunfu City's non-metallic mineral products industry can be further improved, particularly the occupational health protection skills and related legal knowledge. Workers with short seniority, low educational level, and in small and micro enterprises should be the key groups for improving OHL levels.

Objective To analyze a case of violations by an occupational medical examination (OME) institution and to explore the key control points for the supervision and management of OME institutions, as well as the core role of quality assessment in this context. Methods An OME institution suspected of illegal activities was used as the study subject. Retrospective analysis was conducted. Clues of suspected violations were identified by an on-site quality assessment. After investigation and verification by the local health authorities, legal action was taken against the institution for its violations. Results During an on-site quality assessment, the Guangdong Province OME quality control expert group discovered that the OME institution violated regulations, including unqualified personnel file, exceeding the scope of services category, issuing false reports, failing to report suspected occupational diseases on time, and failing to notify workers about suspected occupational diseases as required. The evidence was then submitted to the Guangdong Province OME Quality Control Center, which subsequently forwarded the case to local health administration department for filing and investigation. After the investigation, penalties were imposed on the OME institution for its illegal activities. Conclusion The key supervision and inspection points in the quality assessment of OME institutions include personnel file configuration, the quality control management system and its implementation, the quality of OME reports, and information reporting. Quality assessment plays a pivotal role in ensuring the legal and compliant practice of OME institutions, safeguarding the health rights and interests of workers, and enhancing the overall standard of the OME industry.
