Objective To analyze the distribution characteristics and trends of occupational exposure types of medical radiation workers in Gansu Province, China, and to provide a basis for administrative departments to formulate and adjust radiation protection policies. Methods According to the radiation health information platform, the data of occupational exposure types of radiation workers in Gansu Province from 2014 to 2023 were obtained. The proportions of occupational exposure types in each physical examination year was statistically analyzed. Results From 2014 to 2023, the number of medical radiation workers accounted for more than 70% of the total number of radiation workers. The proportion of X-ray imaging diagnostic radiation workers in the total number of medical radiation workers gradually decreased but remained the highest, exceeding 68% annually. The proportion of interventional radiology workers in the total number of medical radiation workers increased from 13.8% to 25.5%. The proportions of radiation therapy and nuclear medicine workers in the total number of medical radiation workers increased slowly. The numbers of interventional radiology and radiotherapy workers in tertiary hospitals both accounted for more than 70% of the total number of such workers in the province. The proportion of interventional radiology workers increased and then decreased. The proportion of radiotherapy workers increased significantly from 70.5% to 93.0%. The number of nuclear medicine workers in tertiary hospitals accounted for more than 80% of such workers in the province. Conclusion Radiation protection policies and measures should be adjusted according to the changes in the types of occupational exposure. The focus of these policies and measures should differ depending on the level of healthcare institutions, the type of radiological diagnostic and therapeutic services, and the characteristics of various occupational exposure types .

Objective: To investigate the detection of depressive symptoms and its influencing factors among middle school students in Huzhou City, so as to provide insights for improving the mental health levels among middle school students. Methods: From September to November 2024, a total of 4 729 middle school students from five counties (districts) in Huzhou City were selected through the stratified cluster random sampling method. Demographic information, lifestyle, and school bullying were collected through questionnaire surveys. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Factors affecting depressive symptoms among middle school students were analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 4 729 middle school students were surveyed, including 2 200 boys (46.52%) and 2 529 girls (53.48%). Depressive symptoms were detected in 1 026 students, with a detection rate of 21.70%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that girl (OR=1.960, 95%CI: 1.659-2.317), high school (ordinary high school, OR=1.789, 95%CI: 1.465-2.186; vocational high school, OR=1.581, 95%CI: 1.105-2.263), consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages >0 time/day (<1 time/day, OR=1.363, 95%CI: 1.009-1.841; ≥1 time/day, OR=1.568, 95%CI: 1.098-2.239), fried food intake ≥1 time/day (OR=1.890, 95%CI: 1.291-2.769), skipping breakfast daily (OR=2.178, 95%CI: 1.825-2.599), TV viewing time ≥2 hours/day (OR=1.457, 95%CI: 1.154-1.838), insufficient sleep duration (OR=1.761, 95%CI: 1.422-2.181), smoking (OR=2.798, 95%CI: 1.834-4.269), alcohol consumption (OR=2.282, 95%CI: 1.861-2.798), experiencing school bullying (OR=5.440, 95%CI: 3.148-9.402) and parental physical/verbal abuse (OR=3.954, 95%CI: 3.189-4.902) were associated with a higher risk of depressive symptoms among middle school students. Conversely, the middle school students who engaged in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity ≥3 times/week (OR=0.784, 95%CI: 0.668-0.921) and attended physical education classes ≥3 sessions/week (OR=0.736, 95%CI: 0.613-0.884) were associated with a lower risk of depressive symptoms. Conclusion The prevalence of depressive symptoms among middle school students in Huzhou City was lower than national average, and was influenced by dietary habits, physical exercise, sleep duration, smoking, alcohol consumption, and experiencing school bullying.

Recent studies have shown that stress can substantially facilitate breast cancer metastasis,which can be reduced by nonselective β1/β2-adrenergic receptor(β1/β2-AR)blocker.However,several side effects were identified.Thus,it is extremely warranted to explore more effective and better-tolerated β2-AR blocker.Currently,we demonstrated that baicalin(BA),a major bioactive component of Scutellaria bai-calensis Georgi,could significantly attenuate stress hormones especially epinephrine(Epi)-induced breast cancer cell migration and invasion in vitro.Mechanistically,we identified that β2-AR was a direct target of BA via the drug affinity responsive target stability(DARTS)combined with mass spectrum assay,and BA photoaffinity probe with pull-down assay,which was further confirmed by a couple of bio-physical and biochemical assays.Furthermore,we demonstrated that BA could directly bind to the Phe-193 and Phe-289 of β2-AR,subsequently inhibit cyclic adenosine monophosphate-protein kinase A-focal adhesion kinase(cAMP-PKA-FAK)pathway,and thus impede epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT),thereby hindering the metastatic progression of the chronic stress coupled with syngeneic and xenograft in vivo orthotopic and tail vein mouse model.These findings firstly identify BA as a potential β2-AR inhibitor in the treatment of stress-induced breast cancer metastasis.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of gold microneedle combined with tranexamic acid transdermal administration for the treatment of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation caused by acne vulgaris.Methods:From January 2022 to October 2022, 36 patients with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation of facial acne who went to the Laser Medical Center, Air Force Medical Center were treated, including 10 males and 26 females, with 21-42 (28.3±4.8) years of age. The patients were divided into observation group and control group, with 18 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with gold microneedle combined with transdermal administration of tranexamic acid, the control group with 0.5 mm microneedles combined with transdermal administration of tranexamic acid. Both groups were treated for 2 times with an interval of 2 months. The total effective rate, post acne hyperpigmentation index (PAHPI), UV spots, brown spots, pores, skin texture, and adverse reaction were evaluated at 4 weeks after the last treatment.Results:Clinical observation was completed in all 36 patients. In the observation group, 17 cases were effective, accounting for 94.4%, and in the control group, 11 cases were effective, accounting for 61.1%, The curative effect of the observation group was better than that of the control group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The differences in PAHPI score, UV spots, brown spots, pores, and skin texture between the two groups were also statistically significant ( t=3.10, 2.52, 2.71, 2.43 and 3.54; P=0.004, 0.017, 0.001, 0.021 and 0.001). The patiens in both groups had different degrees of burning sensation, erythema, edema. dryness and other symptoms after treatment, which were relieved 3 days after treatment without special treatmet. Conclusions:Gold microneedle plus transdermal administrationof tranexamic acid is a safe and effective method for the treatment of post-inflammatory pigmentation caused by acne vulgaris.

Objective:To analyze the distribution of clopidogrel metabolism-related gene variability in Kawasaki disease (KD) children with coronary artery lesions (CAL) across different age groups and the impact of genetic variability on the efficacy of clopidogrel antiplatelet therapy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted. Clinical data were collected from 46 KD children with CAL who were hospitalized in the Cardiovascular Center of Children′s Hospital of Fudan University between January 2021 and August 2022 and were treated with clopidogrel, including gender, age, body mass index, course of KD, CAL severity grade, and baseline platelet count. According to their age, the children were divided into ≥2-year-old group and <2-year-old group. Their platelet responsiveness was assessed by adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet inhibition rate (ADPi) calculated via thromboelastography, and children were categorized into high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) and normal on-treatment platelet reactivity (NTPR) groups. Genotypes of CYP2C19, PON1 and ABCB1 were detected. The t test, one-way analysis of variance and Chi-square test were used for intergroup comparison. Results:Among the 46 KD children with CAL, 34 were male and 12 were female; 37 were ≥2-year-old and 9 were <2-year-old; 25 cases were in the HTPR group and 21 cases were in the NTPR group, with 19 HTPR and 18 NTPR in the ≥2-year-old group, and 6 HTPR and 3 NTPR in the <2-year-old group. Genetic analysis showed that 92 alleles among the 46 children, with frequencies of CYP2C19*1, CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, CYP2C19*17, PON1 192Q, PON1 192R, ABCB1 3435C, ABCB1 3435T at 59% (54/92), 32% (29/92), 9% (8/92), 1% (1/92), 36% (36/92), 64% (59/92), 63% (58/92) and 37% (34/92), respectively. Analysis of the impact of genotype on ADPi revealed that in children aged ≥2 years, those with CYP2C19*1/*3 genotype had significantly lower ADPi than those with CYP2C19*1/*1 genotype ((34±15)% vs. (61±29)%, t=2.18, P=0.036). There were also no significant difference in ADPi among children with PON1 192Q homozygous, PON1 192R heterozygote and PON1 192R homozygous genotypes ((40±22)% vs. (52±33)% vs. (65±27)%, F=2.17, P=0.130), or among those with ABCB1 3435C homozygous, ABCB1 3435T heterozygote and ABCB1 3435T homozygous genotypes ((55±34)% vs. (60±27)% vs. (49±24)%, F=0.33, P=0.719). In <2-year-old group, there were no significant differences in ADPi across CYP2C19*1/*1, CYP2C19*1/*2 and CYP2C19*2*2 genotypes ((40±20)% vs. (53±37)% vs. (34±16)%, F=0.37, P>0.05). There were no significant differences in ADPi across CYP2C19*1/*1 and CYP2C19*1/*3 genotypes ((44±27)% vs. (42±20)%, t=0.08, P>0.05). There were no significant differences in ADPi across PON1 192Q homozygous, PON1 192R heterozygote and PON1 192R homozygous genotypes (45% vs. (55±27)% vs. (24±5)%, F=1.83, P>0.05). There were no significant differences in ADPi across ABCB1 3435C homozygous, ABCB1 3435T heterozygote and ABCB1 3435T homozygous genotypes ((36±16)% vs. (50±35)% vs. 45%, F=0.29, P>0.05). The risk analysis of HTPR in different genotypes revealed that in children aged ≥2 years, carrying at least 1 or 2 loss-of-function alleles of CYP2C19 was a risk factor for HTPR ( OR=4.69, 10.00, 95% CI 1.11-19.83, 0.84-119.32, P=0.033, 0.046, respectively), and PON1 192R homozygosity and carrying at least one PON1 192R allele were protective factors against HTPR ( OR=0.08, 0.13, 95% CI 0.01-0.86, 0.01-1.19, P=0.019, 0.043, respectively). Conclusion:KD children aged ≥2 years carrying CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles and PON1 192Q are more likely to develop HTPR.

Piezo1 is a mechanosensitive ion channel protein widely expressed in mammalian cells with the function of sensing mechanical stimuli and of mediating signaling,and is embedded in the membranes of erythrocytes,the major cellular component of blood.Piezo1 regulates the morphology and function of erythrocytes by mediating the in-flux of Ca2+into the cell in crosstalk with the Gardos channel(KCa3.1),constituting the"Piezo1-Ca2+-Gardos channel axis".However,when Piezo1 is abnormally expressed or over-activated by its specific agonist(Yoda1),it can also lead to abnormal erythrocyte morphology and dysfunction,and even cause the development of related he-reditary diseases.

Objective:To analyze the failure rate of enteral nutrition feeding in patients with mechanical ventilation, explore the influencing factors, and find out the existing problems and deficiencies in the process of nutrition support.Methods:Patients who were admitted to the ICU of Zhejiang People′s Hospital from June 2020 to January 2022 for mechanical ventilation and continuous enteral nutrition through the nose were retrospectively collected as the research subjects. The patients were divided into a standard group and a substandard group. Comparing the feeding status of enteral nutrition patients in the two groups on the 7th day, Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of feeding substandard.Results:A total of 82 patients (57.34%, 82/143) had feeding failure. Logistic regression analysis showed that complications ( OR=34.47, 95% CI 9.49 to 125.21) and infusion speed ( OR=0.21, 95% CI 0.08 to 0.57) were the influencing factors of feeding failure in ICU mechanical ventilation patients ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The feeding failure rate of ICU mechanical ventilation patients is higher than the feeding failure rate, and the slow infusion speed caused by complications and feeding intolerance is the main reason for the failure. It is suggested to set personalized feeding program for patients, optimize feeding measures, and improve the feeding failure rate.

Objective:To investigate the surgical efficacy and prognosis influencing factors of hilar cholangiocarcinoma based on multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 91 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent surgery in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from April 2004 to April 2021 were collected. There were 59 males and 32 females, aged (61±10)years. Patients who were admitted from April 2004 to March 2014 underwent traditional surgical diagnosis and treatment, and patients who were admitted from April 2014 to April 2021 underwent multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment. Observation indica-tors: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) postoperative pathological examina-tions; (4) postoperative prognosis analysis; (5) influencing factors of postoperative prognosis. Follow-up was conducted using telephone interview and outpatient examination. Patients were followed up once every 6 months after surgery to detect survival. The follow-up was up to April 2023. 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 distribution were represented as M(range), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the rank sum test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curve and calculate survival rate. The Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the COX proportional hazard model. Results:(1) Surgical situations. Of the 91 patients, there were 65 cases receiving hemi- or expanded hemi-hepatectomy, 13 cases receiving tri-hepatectomy, 9 cases receiving partial hepatectomy, 4 cases receiving extrahepatic bile duct resection. There were 24 cases receiving combined vein resection and reconstruction, 8 cases receiving combined pancreaticoduodenectomy, 6 cases receiving com-bined hepatic artery resection and reconstruction, including 24 cases receiving extended radical surgery (tri-hepatectomy, hepatic artery resection and reconstruction, hepatopancreaticoduodenec-tomy). The operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss and intraoperative blood transfusion rate of 91 patients was (590±124)minutes, 800(range, 500?1 200)mL and 75.8%(69/91), respectively. Of the 91 patients, cases receiving extended radical surgery, the volume of intraoperative blood loss were 4, 650(range, 300?1 000)mL in the 31 patients who were admitted from April 2004 to March 2014, versus 20, 875 (range, 500?1 375)mL in the 60 patients who were admitted from April 2014 to April 2021, showing significant differences between them ( χ2=4.39, Z=0.31, P<0.05). (2) Post-operative situations. The postoperative duration of hospital stay and cases with postoperative infectious complications were (27±17)days and 50 in the 91 patients. Cases with abdominal infection, cases with infection of incision, cases with bacteremia and cases with pulmonary infection were 43, 7, 5, 8 in the 91 patients. One patient might have multiple infectious complications. Cases with bile leakage, cases with delayed gastric emptying, cases with chylous leakage, cases with liver failure, cases with pancreatic fistula, cases with intraperitoneal hemorrhage, cases with reoperation, cases dead during the postoperative 90 days were 30, 9, 9, 6, 5, 3, 6, 3 in the 91 patients. Cases with abdominal infection was 10 in the 31 patients who were admitted from April 2004 to March 2014, versus 33 in the 60 patients who were admitted from April 2014 to April 2021, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=4.24, P<0.05). Cases dead during the postoperative 90 days was 3 in the 31 patients who were admitted from April 2004 to March 2014, versus 0 in the 60 patients who were admitted from April 2014 to April 2021, showing a significant difference between them ( P<0.05). (3) Post-operative pathological examinations. Of the 91 patients, cases with Bismuth type as type Ⅰ?Ⅱ, type Ⅲ, type Ⅳ, cases with T staging as Tis stage, T1 stage, T2a?2b stage, T3 stage, T4 stage, cases with N staging as N0 stage, N1 stage, N2 stage, cases with M staging as M0 stage, M1 stage, cases with TNM staging as 0 stage, Ⅰ stage, Ⅱ stage, Ⅲ stage, ⅣA stage, ⅣB stage, cases with R 0 radical resection, cases with R 1 or R 2 resection were 15, 46, 30, 1, 9, 25, 30, 26, 49, 36, 6, 85, 6, 1, 7, 13, 58, 6, 6, 63, 28. Cases with R 0 radical resection, cases with R 1 or R 2 resection were 15, 16 in the 31 patients who were admitted from April 2004 to March 2014, versus 48, 12 in the 60 patients who were admitted from April 2014 to April 2021, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=9.59, P<0.05). (4) Postoperative prognosis analysis. Of the 91 patients, 3 cases who died within 90 days after surgery were excluded, and the 5-year overall survival rate and median overall survival time of the rest of 88 cases were 44.7% and 55 months. The 5-year overall survival rate was 33.5% in the 28 patients who were admitted from April 2004 to March 2014, versus 50.4% in the 60 patients who were admitted from April 2014 to April 2021, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=5.31, P<0.05). Results of further analysis showed that the corresponding 5-year overall survival rate of cases without lymph node metastasis was 43.8% in the 16 patients who were admitted from April 2004 to March 2014, versus 61.6% in the 31 patients who were admitted from April 2014 to April 2021. There was a significant difference in the 5-year overall survival rate between these patients without lymph node metastasis ( χ2=3.98, P<0.05). The corresponding 5-year overall survival rate of cases with lymph node metastasis was 18.5% in the 12 patients who were admitted from April 2004 to March 2014, versus 37.7% in the 29 patients who were admitted from April 2014 to April 2021. There was no significant difference in the 5-year overall survival rate between these patients with lymph node metastasis ( χ2=2.25, P>0.05). (5) Influencing factors of postoperative prognosis. Results of multivariate analysis showed that poorly differentiated tumor and R 1 or R 2 resection were inde-pendent risk factors influencing prognosis after surgical treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma ( hazard ratio=2.62, 2.71, 95% confidence interval as 1.30?5.29, 1.30?5.69, P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with traditional surgical diagnosis and treatment, treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma based on multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment can expand surgical indications, reduce proportion of dead patients within 90 days after surgery, improve proportation of radical resection and long-term survival rate. Poorly differentiated tumor and R 1 or R 2 resection are independent risk factors influencing prognosis after surgical treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.

Objective:To investigate the role of TRIZ theory in clinical teaching in orthopedic operating room.Methods:A total of 43 interns in the orthopedic operating room of our hospital from October 2019 to July 2020 were selected as control group, and 46 interns in the orthopedic operating room of our hospital from August 2020 to May 2021 were selected as observation group. The interns in the control group received traditional teaching, and those in the observation group received teaching based on TRIZ theory. The two groups were compared in terms of professional assessment results, self-evaluation, satisfaction score, and qualification of aseptic operation in orthopedic operating room. SPSS 22.0 was used to perform the t-test and the chi-square test. Results:Compared with the control group, the observation group had significantly higher theoretical knowledge score, practical skill score, and weighted total score ( t=14.90, 11.82, and 13.23, all P?0.001). Compared with the control group, the observation group also had significantly higher scores of analysis and problem-solving ability, clinical thinking, doctor-patient communication, psychological quality, clinical case analysis, self-study ability, and teaching satisfaction ( t=7.88, 11.78, 15.26, 7.94, 12.93, 9.83, and 13.22, all P?0.001). Compared with the control group, the observation group had significantly higher qualified rates of surgical hand-washing, wearing sterile surgical gowns, non-contact glove wearing; and bacteriological testing ( χ 2=4.22, 6.02, 4.92, and 7.59, P=0.040, 0.014, 0.027, and 0.006). Conclusion:TRIZ theory has a certain value in clinical teaching in orthopedic operating room and can significantly improve the scores of theoretical knowledge and practical skills, strengthen aseptic operation abilities in orthopedic operating room, and enhance the satisfaction with teaching among interns.

Objective:To investigate the effects of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) on plasma concentration, clinical efficacy and safety of colistin sulfate.Methods:Clinical data of patients received with colistin sulfate were retrospectively analyzed from our group's previous clinical registration study, which was a prospective, multicenter observation study on the efficacy and pharmacokinetic characteristics of colistin sulfate in patients with severe infection in intensive care unit (ICU). According to whether patients received blood purification treatment, they were divided into CRRT group and non-CRRT group. Baseline data (gender, age, whether complicated with diabetes, chronic nervous system disease, etc), general data (infection of pathogens and sites, steady-state trough concentration, steady-state peak concentration, clinical efficacy, 28-day all-cause mortality, etc) and adverse event (renal injury, nervous system, skin pigmentation, etc) were collected from the two groups.Results:A total of 90 patients were enrolled, including 22 patients in the CRRT group and 68 patients in the non-CRRT group. ① There was no significant difference in gender, age, basic diseases, liver function, infection of pathogens and sites, colistin sulfate dose between the two groups. Compared with the non-CRRT group, the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) were higher in the CRRT group [APACHE Ⅱ: 21.77±8.26 vs. 18.01±6.34, P < 0.05; SOFA: 8.5 (7.8, 11.0) vs. 6.0 (4.0, 9.0), P < 0.01], serum creatinine level was higher [μmol/L: 162.0 (119.5, 210.5) vs. 72.0 (52.0, 117.0), P < 0.01]. ② Plasma concentration: there was no significant difference in steady-state trough concentration between CRRT group and non-CRRT group (mg/L: 0.58±0.30 vs. 0.64±0.25, P = 0.328), nor was there significant difference in steady-state peak concentration (mg/L: 1.02±0.37 vs. 1.18±0.45, P = 0.133). ③ Clinical efficacy: there was no significant difference in clinical response rate between CRRT group and non-CRRT group [68.2% (15/22) vs. 80.9% (55/68), P = 0.213]. ④ Safety: acute kidney injury occurred in 2 patients (2.9%) in the non-CRRT group. No obvious neurological symptoms and skin pigmentation were found in the two groups. Conclusions:CRRT had little effect on the elimination of colistin sulfate. Routine blood concentration monitoring (TDM) is warranted in patients received with CRRT.
