Objective:To investigate the level of occupational health literacy (OHL) among workers in the electronic manufacturing industry, analyze the influencing factors, and provide a scientific basis for occupational health promotion work.Methods:From July to September 2022, a stratified cluster random sampling method was adopted, and 870 workers from 20 large, medium, small and micro electronic manufacturing enterprises in Guangdong Province were selected as the research subjects. The OHL level of workers was investigated by using the "Personal Questionnaire for Monitoring and Surveying Occupational Health Literacy of National Key Populations", and the influencing factors were analyzed by binary logistic regression.Results:The OHL level of workers in electronic manufacturing industry was 36.09% (314/870). The OHL levels in the four dimensions of occupational health legal knowledge, basic knowledge of occupational health protection, healthy work methods and behaviors, and basic skills of occupational health protection were 39.08% (340/870), 78.97% (687/870), 56.55% (492/870), and 22.41% (195/870), respectively. logistic regression analysis showed that junior high school, senior high school/vocational high school/technical secondary school education, and average monthly income of 5000-6999 yuan and ≥7000 yuan were protective factors for high OHL levels among workers ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:The OHL level of workers in the electronic manufacturing industry is relatively low, and the promotion and intervention of OHL should be actively carried out to effectively improve the health literacy level of workers, focusing on workers with low education and low income.

Objective:To analyze the liver histological characteristics and clinically related factors in inactive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) carriers (IHC), and also explore whether antiviral treatment is necessary for IHC, as defined in the 2022 version of the hepatitis B prevention and treatment guidelines.Methods:A multicenter, retrospective cohort study was conducted. Two hundred and thirty-one IHC cases who underwent liver biopsy histopathological examination in nine medical institutions, including Beijing Youan Hospital affiliated with Capital Medical University, from January 2018 to December 2023 were included. General informative data, clinical serological markers, and transient elastography (TE) examination results were collected. Patients were divided into a positive (148 cases) and a negative group (83 cases) according to the results of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA detection. The differences in liver pathological inflammatory activity (G) and liver fibrosis stage (S) were analyzed between the two groups to explore the correlation between liver tissue conditions and clinically related factors. Comparsions of normally distributed continwous data, skeukd continuous data, and categorical data between groups are performed using t tests, Mann-Whitney U tests and χ2 tests, respectively. Results:The age of 231 IHC cases was 43 (38, 51) years old, with 95.2% (220/231) aged ≥30 years, and males accounted for 64.9% (150/231). HBsAg and HBV DNA levels were 131.9 (20.8, 400.9) IU/mL and 94.0 (0, 448.5) IU/mL, respectively, of which 35.9% (83/231) were HBV DNA negative (<20 IU/mL). The remarkable proportions of G≥2, S≥2, and liver injury (G≥2 and/or S≥2) in liver tissue were 16.5% (38/231), 29% (67/231), and 35.9% (83/231), respectively. The S≥2 proportion was significantly higher in the HBV DNA-negative group than the positive group (42.2% vs. 21.6%, P<0.001), and it mainly occurred in the population cohort over 30 years old (44.9% vs. 31.0%, P=0.04). The liver stiffness measurement (LSM), aspartate transaminase to platelet ratio index (APRI), and platelet (PLT) were significantly higher in the S≥2 group than the S<2 group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Clinicians can comprehensively evaluate the degree of liver fibrosis in IHC based on clinical factors such as age, PLT, APRI, and LSM, even if the liver histological results are lacking. The China 2022 version guidelines define that nearly half of IHC has histological indications for antiviral therapy, and liver biopsy and prompt treatment can be recommended.

Objective:To investigate the change of chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) imaging in the bilateral substantia nigra (SN) and red nucleus (RN) of Parkinson disease (PD), and to explore the value of CEST-MRI for the clinical application of PD.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. A total of 45 PD patients (PD group) and 21 sex-, age-, and cognitive-function matched normal control subjects (NC group) were retrospectively enrolled from December 2012 to July 2015 in Beijing Hospital. All subjects underwent brain CEST-MRI and routine MRI. Based on the MATLAB software package, the 4-pool Lorentz fitting model was applied to analyze the signal change of CEST imaging, which could acquire the mean amplitudes of the 4-pool parameters including Amide, nuclear overhauser enhancement (NOE), direct water saturation (DS) and magnetization transfer (MT) in the bilateral SN and RN. Independent samples t test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare CEST parameters between the PD group and the NC group and controlled by Bonferroni correction. The combined model was constructed based on parameters with inter-group differences after correction. The receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of the CEST parameters and the combined model. Results:Compared with the NC group, the left SN Amide value, left RN Amide value, and right SN NOE value were reduced in the PD group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-3.59, corrected P=0.026; t=-3.77, corrected P=0.016; Z=-3.27, corrected P=0.017). The left SN Amide value, the left RN Amide value, the right SN NOE value, and the combined model all had good diagnostic efficacy in the differentiation of the PD group from the HC group (AUCs of 0.78, 0.79, 0.75, and 0.81, respectively). The combined model had the highest AUC value (0.81) and specificity (97.78%), the Amide value of left SN had the highest sensitivity (93.33%). Conclusions:Quantitative analysis of CEST-MRI based on the 4-pool Lorentz fitting model shows significant differences in the CEST quantitative indicators of the SN and RN between the PD group and the NC group, demonstrating good potential for clinical application in the diagnosis of PD.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors and prognosis for early acute kidney injury (AKI) after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT).Methods:The retrospective study was conduc-ted. The clinicopathological data of 340 pairs of donor and recipients undergoing OLT in The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2016 to January 2020 were collected. There were 262 males and 78 females of donors. There were 268 males and 72 females of recipients, aged (51±11)years. Of 340 recipients, 217 cases without postoperative early AKI were divided into the non-AKI group and 123 cases with postoperative early AKI were divided into the AKI group. Measure-ment data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distri-bution were represented as M( IQR), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the non-parameter test. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the binary Logistic regre-ssion model with forward method. The nomogram predictive model was constructed using the R software with its RMS package (R3.6.1). The efficacy of the predictive model was validated using the area under curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and internal validation of the predictive model was performed using the Bootstrap method. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curves, and Log-rank test was used for survival analysis. Results:(1) Com-parison of preoperative clinical characteristics between donors and recipients of the non-AKI group and the AKI group. There was a significant difference in overweight of donors between the non-AKI group and the AKI group ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in preoperative hypertension, viral hepatitis, pathological types, international normalized ratio, fibrinogen levels, platelet (PLT), hemoglobin, and anemia of recipients between the non-AKI group and the AKI group ( P<0.05). (2) Comparison of surgical situations between recipients of the non-AKI group and the AKI group. There were significant differences in intraoperative urine output, volume of intraoperative blood loss, peak serum potassium after reperfusion, massive transfusion, plasma infusion, cryoprecipitate infusion, and aminocaproic acid use of recipients between the non-AKI group and the AKI group ( P<0.05). (3) Influencing factors for postoperative early AKI and construction and evaluation of the nomogram predictive model for postoperative early AKI. Results of multivariate analysis showed that donors of overweight, recipients of preoperative hypertension, recipients of non-viral hepatitis, recipients of preoperative severe PLT reduction, recipients of less intraoperative urine output, recipients of severe post-reperfusion hypotension, recipients of high peak serum potassium after reperfusion, recipients with intraoperative plasma infusion were independent risk factors for postoperative early AKI ( odds ratio=1.982, 3.365, 0.519, 3.615, 0.169, 2.480, 1.500, 1.001, 95% confidence interval as 1.160-3.388, 1.649-6.865, 0.293-0.917, 1.358-9.621, 0.061-0.464, 1.246-4.934, 1.003-2.243, 1.000-1.001, P<0.05). The nomogram predictive model for postoperative early AKI was constructed based on the results of multivariate analysis. Results of ROC curve showed the AUC was 0.769 (95% confidence interval as 0.717-0.820). Results of the calibration curve showed that the predictive results of nomogram predictive model fitted well with the actual situation, with a mean absolute error of 0.016. (4) Comparison of prognosis between recipients of the non-AKI group and the AKI group. There were significant differences in postopera-tive peak creatinine, peak brain natriuretic peptide, duration of intensive care unit stay, mechanical ventilation time, re-intubation of recipients between the non-AKI group and the AKI group ( Z=-4.836, -5.652, -5.861, -6.533, χ2=14.676, P<0.05). All 340 recipients were followed up. For recipients of hepatocellular carcinoma, the 6-month survival rates after surgery were 87.8% and 75.6% of the non-AKI group and the AKI group, respectively, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=4.010, P<0.05), and the overall survival rates were 46.7% and 56.1% of the non-AKI group and the AKI group, respectively, showing no significant difference between them ( χ2=0.047, P>0.05). For recipients of benign liver disease, the 6-month survival rates after surgery were 89.8% and 78.0% of the non-AKI group and the AKI group, respectively, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=6.401, P<0.05), and the overall survival rates were 81.4% and 68.0% of the non-AKI group and the AKI group, respectively, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=4.452, P<0.05). Conclusions:Donors of overweight, recipients of preoperative hypertension, recipients of non-viral hepatitis, recipients of preoperative severe PLT reduction, reci-pients of less intraoperative urine output, recipients of severe post-reperfusion hypotension, recipi-ents of high peak serum potassium after reperfusion, recipients with intraoperative plasma transfu-sion were independent risk factors for postoperative early AKI. Nomogram predictive model has well clinical application value. For recipients of benign liver disease, the 6-month survival rate after surgery and overall survival rate of recipients in the non-AKI group are superior to those of the AKI group.

Objective To investigate the status quo and the needs of medical imaging technicians(MITs)in the radiology department of secondary and tertiary hospitals in China,so as to provide references and support for the development of the medical imaging technology industry and the relevant policymaking by health administrative departments.Methods The questionnaire was developed by the Chinese Society of Imaging Technology.The radiology department of each hospital involved in the survey recommended one MIT to fill out the online questionnaire.The contents included:(a)the basic information of the hospital;(b)a general overview of the MITs in the hospital;(c)daily work;(d)career development and promotion;(e)research status and needs,etc.Differences in the number of MIT staff were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test and the chi-square test was used to compare the differences in the selected numbers of MITs in need between regions or between different levels of hospitals.Results In this investigation,valid questionnaires were finally obtained from a total of 5 403 hospitals in 31 provinces in China.The total number of MITs of the hospitals covered in the sample was 67 481.The number of MITs in each hospital was 9(5,16).The male-to-female ratio was 1.41:1.MITs who were 20 to 40 years old accounted for 78%.The proportions of MITs who had completed doctorate,master's,undergraduate,junior college,and technical secondary school or lower level education were 0.6%,3.3%,60.7%,30.8%,and 4.55%,respectively.The proportions of chief MITs,deputy chief MITs,supervisor MITs,primary MITs,assistant technician and those below were 1.0%,4.21%,22.1%,51.8%,and 20.9%,respectively.The overall professional satisfaction of MITs was good."Lack of opportunities for learning and communication"was quoted as the main problem MITs encountered in regard to improving their job-related competency.59.2% of the respondents had not published any academic papers in the past five years,and only 7.0% of the respondents had published in journals included in the Science Citation Index(SCI)in the past five years.Conclusion MITs in China are on average relatively young and the number of MITs has greatly increased.At this stage,more attention should be given to the cultivation of talents and continuing education of MITs and the construction of the discipline should be further strengthened,so as to provide strong support for the development of the medical imaging technology industry in China.

Objective:To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine on the intraoperative and early postoperative complications of patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 399 patients who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2016 to September 2020 were retrospectively collected. There were 319 males and 80 females, aged (50.9±10.2) years (range: 10 to 73 years). These patients were divided into the control group (369 cases) and the dexmedetomidine group (30 cases) according to whether dexmedetomidine was continuously pumped intravenously during the operation until the operation ended. The 1∶2 propensity score matching was used to match the preoperative and intraoperative conditions of the two groups of patients, and the caliper width was 0.2. Outcome indicators included intraoperative postreperfusion syndrome, acute kidney injury and pulmonary complications within 7 days after surgery, length of hospital stay, time of stay in ICU, duration of assisted mechanical ventilation, rate of reintubation, 6-month and 1-year survival and recurrence-free survival rate after surgery. The independent sample t test, χ2 test, Mann-Whitney U test or Fisher exact test was used to statistically analyze the data of the two groups of patients, respectively. Survival curves of overall survival and disease-free-survival were plotted by Kaplan-Meier method, and the survival rate and recurrence-free survival rate were compared by Log-rank test. Results:A total of 78 patients were included after propensity score matching, including 26 in the dexmedetomidine group and 52 in the control group. The incidence of acute kidney injury in the dexmedetomidine group within 7 days after surgery was 0 (0/26), significantly lower than that of the control group (21.2%,11/52)(corrected χ2=4.776, P=0.029). There were no significant differences in the incidence of intraoperative postreperfusion syndrome and pulmonary complications within 7 days after surgery, length of hospital stay, ICU time, the duration of assisted mechanical ventilation, rate of reintubation, 6-month and 1-year survival, and recurrence-free survival rate after surgery between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine via intravenous pump during operation may be beneficial in reducing the incidence of acute kidney injury within 7 days after orthotopic liver transplantation.

Objective:To explore the effects of donor, basic recipient characteristics and intraoperative findings before orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT)on postoperative pulmonary complications and the influence of postoperative pulmonary complications on postoperative outcomes and long-term survival of patients.Methods:From January 2016 to December 2019, clinical data were retrospectively reviewed for 313 OLT recipients at First Affiliated Hospital, Nanjing Medical University.According to clinical manifestations, laboratory parameters and imaging findings within 7 days post-operation, they were divided into two groups of with and without postoperative pulmonary complications.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed for general parameters of donors/recipients and perioperative variables of recipients in two groups.And Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was conducted for postoperative survival of two groups.Results:Multiariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that age, concurrent chronic diseases, low preoperative platelet count, intraoperative massive bleeding(>1 500 ml)and severe hypotension after perfusion were all independent risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications.Compared with those without postoperative pulmonary complications, intensive care unit(ICU)stay, postoperative mechanical ventilation duration and hospital stay were significantly prolonged in patients with postoperative pulmonary complications.And rate of re-intubation, incidence of acute kidney injury and hospital mortality spiked markedly( P<0.05). Among OLT patients with benign liver diseases, overall survival rate of patients without postoperative pulmonary complications was significantly better than that of those with postoperative pulmonary complications( P<0.05). Conclusions:Age, concurrent chronic diseases, low preoperative platelet count, massive intraoperative bleeding(>1 500 ml)and severe hypotension after perfusion boost the risks of early postoperative pulmonary complications and adversely affect the outcomes of OLT recipients.
