Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) represent a significant occupational health challenge among healthcare professionals globally, posing substantial threats to physical and mental well-being as well as work sustainability. Adopting preventive behaviors—including ergonomic postural adjustments, optimized work-rest scheduling, proper use of protective and assistive equipment, and regular physical activity—is essential for mitigating the risk of WMSDs. Guided by the social ecological model, the review synthesized current evidence on the determinants of WMSDs preventive behaviors across four levels: intrapersonal characteristics, work environment conditions, interpersonal support, and policy/institutional factors. The findings suggest that higher educational attainment, favorable health-related behavioral patterns, optimized ergonomic work environments, adoption of supportive collaborative systems, strong organizational support, as well as policy safeguards facilitate preventive behavior adoption. Conversely, limited prevention-related knowledge, low risk perception, insufficient physical activity, excessive workload, lack of appropriate protective equipment, inadequate ergonomic training, a prevailing culture of presenteeism, and inadequate policy implementation constitute significant barriers. Multi-dimensional intervention strategies targeting these determinants are warranted to enhance preventive behaviors, reduce the risk of WMSDs, and strengthen occupational health protection for healthcare professionals.

BACKGROUND:Anthocyanin is one of the most important active components in Lycium ruthenicum Murr,which has antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects.CD146+human adipose-derived pericytes/perivascular cells(CD146+hAD-PCs)are the progenitors of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,which can promote the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells in vitro.The support effect of anthocyanin in combination with CD146+hAD-PCs on umbilical cord blood hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells remains to be studied. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the supporting effect of anthocyanins in Lycium ruthenicum Murr(ALRM)combined with CD146+hAD-PCs on umbilical cord blood CD34+hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells(UCB CD34+HSPCs)in vitro. METHODS:The CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effect of different concentrations(0,200,400,600,800,1 000 mg/L)of ALRM on the proliferation of CD146+hAD-PCs.Flow cytometry was used to detect the effect of ALRM on the cell cycle of CD146+hAD-PCs.The co-culture experiments were divided into blank group,ALRM group,CD146+hAD-PCs group,and ALRM+CD146+hAD-PCs group to analyze the in vitro supporting effect of ALRM combined with CD146+hAD-PCs on UCB CD34+HSPCs.The number of expanded cells and the number of colony-forming units were compared at 1,2,and 4 weeks of co-culture.The immunophenotype of cells was detected by flow cytometry.The level of cytokines was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The cell viability of CD146+hAD-PCs was highest at an ALRM concentration of 200 mg/L,the proportion of G0/G1 phase cells decreased and the proportion of S and G2/M phase cells increased in CD146+hAD-PCs(P<0.01).(2)The change in number of UCB CD34+HSPCs cells in the ALRM+CD146+hAD-PCs group was higher than that in the ALRM group at 1,2,and 4 weeks of co-culture(all P<0.05),and higher than that in CD146+hAD-PCs group at 2 and 4 weeks of co-culture(all P<0.05).The number of cells in the ALRM group and blank group decreased gradually with the extension of co-culture time.(3)Colony forming capacity and immunophenotype analysis:The number of colony-forming units in the ALRM+CD146+hAD-PCs group was higher than that in the CD146+hAD-PCs group and ALRM group at 1 and 2 weeks of co-culture(P<0.05).The proportion of CD45+and CD34+CD33-cells in the ALRM+CD146+hAD-PCs group was higher than that in the CD146+hAD-PCs group at 1 and 2 weeks of co-culture(all P<0.01).(4)Changes in cytokines:Interleukin-2 level in the ALRM+CD146+hAD-PCs group was higher than that in the ALRM and CD146+hAD-PCs groups(P<0.05).The interleukin-3 content of the ALRM+CD146+hAD-PCs group was higher than that of the CD146+hAD-PCs group at 2 and 4 weeks(P<0.05).The expression level of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor in the ALRM+CD146+hAD-PCs group was higher than that in the CD146+hAD-PCs group at 1 week,and higher than that in the ALRM group and CD146+hAD-PCs group at 2 weeks(P<0.01).Interferon-γ content in the ALRM group and ALRM+CD146+hAD-PCs group was lower than that in the CD146+hAD-PCs group at 1,2,and 4 weeks of co-culture(P<0.01).(5)Due to the absence of stromal cells in the blank group,UCB CD34+HSPCs could not be counted after 1 week of co-culture and were not subjected to immunophenotyping,colony analysis,or cytokine assays.(6)In summary,ALRM can promote the expansion of UCB CD34+HSPCs in vitro by promoting CD146+hAD-PCs proliferation and cell cycle transformation,which is of great value in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Objective To understand the status of quality control in occupational medical examination (OME) institutions in Guizhou Province. Methods A total of 124 registered OME institutions actively conducting OME in Guizhou Province were selected as the study subjects using the judgment sampling method. The evaluation was conducted by on-site document reviews, practical skill assessments, and investigation of OME practices for quality evaluation and analyzing their quality control performance. Results The public institutions accounted for 71.0% with a 41.5% of OME workload, while private institutions accounted for 29.0% with a 58.5% of OME workload among these 124 OME institutions. The overall pass rate for quality evaluation of OME institutions was 16.9% (21/124), with a total of 1 296 items failed to pass the quality evaluation. Among the unqualified items, organizational structure, quality control management systems, OME quality control, and information reporting accounted for 15.2%, 21.7%, 52.8%, and 10.3%, respectively. The unqualified rate of quality assessment items of OME institutions was 24.5% (1 296/5 288), and the unqualified rate was lower in public institutions compared with private institutions (22.4% vs 29.3%, P<0.01). The rates of the three key unqualified items, including chest radiography conclusion evaluation, audiogram calculation and conclusion evaluation, and blood lead comparison were 9.8%, 74.8% and 71.4%, respectively. The rates of unqualified audiometry operation test and chief physician theory test were 74.8% and 9.7%, respectively. Conclusion The quality of OME institutions in Guizhou Province requires continuous improvement, particularly in enhancing the abilities of audiometry operation, calculating audiogram results and conducing right conclusion, and blood lead inter-laboratory comparision.

Purpose: The genomic characteristics of uterine sarcomas have not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to explore the genomic landscape of the uterine sarcomas (USs). Materials and Methods: Comprehensive genomic analysis through RNA-sequencing was conducted. Gene fusion, differentially expressed genes (DEGs), signaling pathway enrichment, immune cell infiltration, and prognosis were analyzed. A deep learning model was constructed to predict the survival of US patients. Results: A total of 71 US samples were examined, including 47 endometrial stromal sarcomas (ESS), 18 uterine leiomyosarcomas (uLMS), three adenosarcomas, two carcinosarcomas, and one uterine tumor resembling an ovarian sex-cord tumor. ESS (including high-grade ESS [HGESS] and low-grade ESS [LGESS]) and uLMS showed distinct gene fusion signatures; a novel gene fusion site, MRPS18A–PDC-AS1 could be a potential diagnostic marker for the pathology differential diagnosis of uLMS and ESS; 797 and 477 uterine sarcoma DEGs (uDEGs) were identified in the ESS vs. uLMS and HGESS vs. LGESS groups, respectively. The uDEGs were enriched in multiple pathways. Fifteen genes including LAMB4 were confirmed with prognostic value in USs; immune infiltration analysis revealed the prognositic value of myeloid dendritic cells, plasmacytoid dendritic cells, natural killer cells, macrophage M1, monocytes and hematopoietic stem cells in USs; the deep learning model named Max-Mean Non-Local multi-instance learning (MMN-MIL) showed satisfactory performance in predicting the survival of US patients, with the area under the receiver operating curve curve reached 0.909 and accuracy achieved 0.804. Conclusion USs harbored distinct gene fusion characteristics and gene expression features between HGESS, LGESS, and uLMS. The MMN-MIL model could effectively predict the survival of US patients.

Acute lateral ankle sprain (ALAS) is one of the most common sport injuries, with high incidence, recurrence and disability rates. Currently, exercise rehabilitation-based non-surgical treatment is the primary management approach for ALAS. However, there remain improper practices such as excessive immobilization or uncontrolled activity, which contribute to recurrent sprains and chronic ankle instability, significantly impairing patients′ athletic function and quality of life. To standardize the non-surgical management of ALAS, improve the cure rates, and reduce the recurrence and disability rates, Chinese Sports Rehabilitation Medicine Training Project of Chinese Medical Association, Foot and Ankle Basics and Orthopedics Group, Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Sports Medicine Branch of Jiangsu Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate Expert consensus on non-surgical treatment for acute lateral ankle sprain ( version 2025), following the principles of scientific vigor, practicality, and innovation. Thirteen recommendations were proposed for standardized treatment protocols across different healing phases, aiming to provide references for standard management of ALAS and improve the therapeutic outcomes.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To explore the association between oral health status, the lower respiratory tract microbiome, and the frequent acute exacerbation phenotype in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:This cross-sectional study enrolled 39 patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) hospitalized in the Department of Respiratory Medicine, Henan Provincial People′s Hospital between March 2021 and December 2022. Based on the number of hospitalization episodes for acute exacerbation in the past year, patients were divided into a frequent exacerbator group (≥2 times, n=28) and a non-frequent exacerbator group (<2 times, n=11). Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) samples were collected from all subjects for metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS). Oral health indicators and clinical data were also collected. Statistical analyses were performed using Spearman correlation analysis and multivariable Firth logistic regression analysis. Results:The frequent exacerbation group showed a significantly higher percentage of individuals with≥8 tooth loss compared to the non-frequent exacerbation group (96.4% vs 18.2%, P<0.001), a significantly younger age at first tooth loss in adulthood (53.96±7.30 years vs 62.10±5.80 years, P=0.003), and a significantly higher proportion of individuals who hardly brushed their teeth (50.00% vs 9.09%, P=0.038). The alpha-diversity indices of the lower respiratory tract microbiota were significantly lower in the frequent exacerbation group than in the non-frequent exacerbation group (all P<0.01). The relative abundances of Bacillota, Bacteroidota, Fusobacteriota, Streptococcus, Prevotella, Veillonella, Neisseria, Rothia, Prevotellamelaninogenica, Prevotellajejuni, Rothia mucilaginosa, Veillonella parvula, and Neisseria subflava were lower in the frequent exacerbation group (all P<0.05). In patients with AECOPD, the exacerbation frequency and the presence of ≥8 tooth loss were both negatively correlated with the Shannon index ( r=-0.854, P<0.001; r=-0.642, P<0.001, respectively). Further analysis revealed that Bacillota ( r=-0.862, P<0.001) and Streptococcus ( r=-0.814, P<0.001) were significantly negatively correlated with exacerbation frequency, while Pseudomonas was positively correlated with exacerbation frequency (all P<0.05). Bacillota ( r=0.369, P=0.021), Fusobacteriota ( r=0.368, P=0.021), and Veillonella ( r=0.379, P=0.017) were positively correlated with FEV 1% predicted. Multivariable Firth logistic regression analysis revealed that the first principal component of the microbial community ( OR=2.29, 95% CI: 1.20-11.07) and the loss of≥8 teeth ( OR=14.37, 95% CI: 1.42-482.51) were independent factors associated with frequent acute exacerbations. Conclusion:Frequent acute exacerbations of COPD are significant association with deteriorated oral health and dysbiosis of the lower respiratory tract microbiome, characterized by reduced alpha-diversity and depletion of commensal bacteria.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics of neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis（NEC）and analyze the risk factors for early-onset NEC.Methods:A total of 220 children with NEC admitted to the Department of Pediatrics，Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from January 1st，2018 to February 29th，2024 were retrospectively selected as the research objects. According to the time of onset，the early-onset group（ n=120）and the late-onset group（ n=100）were established，and the clinical characteristics of the two groups were compared. Another 150 cases of normal healthy newborns born in this hospital in the same period were selected as the control group，and the clinical data of the control group were collected. The clinical characteristics of the early-onset group and the control group were compared，and the risk factors of early-onset NEC were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression. Results:Compared with the late-onset group，the early-onset group had fever［50.0%（60/120）vs. 40%（40/100）， χ2=7.333， P=0.007］，apnea［39.17%（47/120）vs. 28%（28/100）， χ2=7.568， P=0.006］，no rise in body temperature［56.67%（68/120）vs. 39%（39/100）， χ2=6.815， P=0.009］，abdominal distension［25%（30/120）vs. 40%（40/100）， χ2=13.200， P<0.001］，vomiting［30.83%（37/120）vs. 45%（45/100）， χ2=12.797， P<0.001］was significantly different（all P<0.05）；Multivariate Logistic regression analysis：weight<1 500 g（ OR=5.871，95% CI：3.153～9.673， P<0.001），gestational age<30 weeks（ OR=4.256，95% CI：2.641～7.896， P=0.007），hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus（hs-PDA）（ OR=3.113，95% CI：1.865～5.133， P=0.033），severe anemia（ OR=3.057，95% CI：2.165～4.802， P=0.001），feeding intolerance（ OR=4.215，95% CI：1.579～10.802， P=0.005），amniotic fluid pollution（ OR=2.452，95% CI：1.579～3.111， P<0.001）were the independent risk factors for early-onset NEC（all P<0.05）. Conclusion:Weight<1 500 g，gestational age<30 weeks，hs-PDA，severe anemia，feeding intolerance，and amniotic fluid contamination are independent risk factors for early-onset NEC. In clinical practice，more attention should be paid to these factors for disease prevention，early identification，and timely intervention in newborns to reduce the occurrence of NEC.
