Background Occupational health risk assessment is the foundation of safeguarding workers' occupational health. However, traditional assessment methods often fail to adequately account for health effects and enterprise-specific characteristics, limiting their comprehensive evaluation capabilities. Additionally, these methods suffer from inconsistent standards, narrow application scopes, insufficient hazard sub-categorization, and indicator systems that poorly support informatization and digital transformation. To address these gaps, this study proposes methodological innovations focusing on the assessment indicator system. Objective To construct a systematic, generalizable, and practical occupational health comprehensive risk assessment indicator system by leveraging occupational health practices and surveillance big data from Shanghai. Methods Initial system indicators were extrated through literature review. Subsequently, expert interviews and group discussions, combined with occupational health surveillance big data, were used to refine these indicators, forming a candidate pool covering two major dimensions: risk factor characteristics and enterprise characteristics. The Delphi method was applied to evaluate and screen the indicators, while the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used to construct a hierarchical model and determine indicator weights. Results A total of 76 articles were reviewed, identifying 25 candidate indicators. After two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, 8 primary indicators (e.g. hazard characteristics, exposure characteristics, health effects, industry characteristics, management characteristics, protective features, adverse events, and uncertainty) and 17 secondary indicators (hazard factor characteristics, exposure levels, number of people exposed, number of factor exposure, special physical exam indicators, suspected occupational diseases, occupational diseases, industry categories, organizational management, hazard reporting, occupational health training, hazard factor testing, occupational health exams, protective facilities, personal protective equipment, administrative penalties, and data quality) were finalized. The expert response rate was 100%, and the expert authority coefficient was 0.86. The Kendall's W coefficients for importance and accessibility scores across the two consultation rounds were 0.41, 0.40 and 0.41, 0.50. A hierarchical model targeting the comprehensive occupational health risk index was constructed, comprising two major elements and three levels of indicators. AHP was applied to calculate the weights, with all judgment matrices demonstrating satisfactory consistency (consistency ratio < 0.1). Conclusion By integrating risk factor profiles with enterprise-specific characteristics via the Delphi-AHP approach, a robust occupational health comprehensive risk assessment indicator system is established. This system provides a practical framework for digitized occupational health management, though further empirical validation in real-world settings is warranted.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current status of informatization tools applied to antimicrobial stewardship in county hospitals in China, and to provide a reference for promoting the informatization development of antimicrobial stewardship in county hospitals.METHODS From August to September 2025, an online questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 007 county hospitals across 31 provinces(autonomous regions, and municipalities) in China. The survey focused on the application of four types of informatization tools:the real-time monitoring system for antimicrobial use, the pre-prescription review system, the irrational use warning system, and the electronic prescription evaluation system(hereinafter referred to as the “monitoring system”“review system”“warning system”“evaluation system”,respectively). Correlation analysis and binary Logistic regression analysis were employed to explore the influencing factors.RESULTS Of the county hospitals, 80.83% were equipped with at least one type of informatization tool for antimicrobial stewardship, while 19.17% had no relevant tool. Only 18.87% of the hospitals were equipped with all four types of tools. The monitoring system exhibited the highest equipped rate (70.80%), whereas the warning system was equipped in only 33.96% of the hospitals. Four types of tools are evenly and adequately deployed in the eastern region, the central and western regions have far lower deployment rates of intervention tools including review system and warning system, accompanied by prominent intra-provincial gaps. The total number of the health technicians, hospital grade, and prescription review rate of outpatient antibacterial drug were significantly and positively correlated with the deployment rates of the four informatization tools ( P <0.05). The results of the Logistic regression model fitting indicated that the model of the review system was rated “excellent” [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC)=0.81], and the model of the warning system was rated “further improvement” (AUC=0.67). The total number of health technicians was significantly positively correlated with the deployment rates of all four types of informatization tools (all P <0.05).CONCLUSIONS The informatization of antimicrobial stewardship in county hospitals in China remains in the initial stage of transitioning from “passive statistics” to “active prevention and control”, with challenges such as structural imbalance and regional disparities. In the future, differentiated support strategies should be implemented, the allocation of resources should be optimized, to enhance the level of refined antimicrobial stewardship.

Objective:To investigate the operation opportunity for vascular rings in infants and assess the impact of prenatal and postnatal integrated management strategies on treatment outcomes.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 75 infants with vascular rings who underwent surgical treatment at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2016 to December 2023. Among them, 54 were males and 21 were females, with a median age at surgery of 1.7 (0.7-6.9) months and a median weight of 5.3 (3.5-8.0) kg. Vascular rings malformation was diagnosed by real-time three-dimensional color doppler echocardiography during pregnancy in 51 cases. Preoperatively, 28 cases presented with respiratory or digestive system-related symptoms, and 26 cases had a history of hospitalization due to related symptoms. All patients underwent preoperative cardiac CTA+ CTVE and three-dimensional reconstruction examinations, and 56 cases showed varying degrees of airway compression and stenosis on imaging. Among them, 10 patients presented with preoperative stridor and respiratory distress; fiberoptic bronchoscopy performed after anesthesia induction confirmed significant tracheal compression/stenosis. One patient was ventilator-dependent preoperatively, and bronchoscopy revealed main bronchomalacia. The cohort included: Complete vascular rings (62 cases of double aortic arch, 10 cases of right aortic arch with aberrant left subclavian artery and left-sided ductus arteriosus/ligamentum) and incomplete vascular rings (3 cases of pulmonary artery sling). Additionally, 5 cases had associated Kommerell’s diverticulum, and 12 had intracardiac malformation. All patients successfully completed surgery, and those with intracardiac malformation underwent extracorporeal circulation and primary radical surgery concurrently. Based on prenatal diagnosis and implementation of prenatal and postnatal integrated management, patients were divided into an observation group (prenatal and postnatal integrated management group) and a control group (postnatally diagnosed group). The perioperative data of the two groups were compared to analyze the surgical outcomes and the advantages of prenatal and postnatal integrated treatment.Results:All 75 patients successfully completed surgery. Preoperatively, 56 cases (74.66%) presented with varying degrees of tracheal stenosis. Except for 1 case that died after abandoning treatment and 1 case that underwent tracheal surgery due to repeated failed ventilator weaning, all other patients were successfully discharged from the hospital. The overall mortality rate was 1.33%, and the rate of tracheal surgery was 1.35%. The age and weight at surgery in the observation group were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05), and the proportion of preoperative hospitalization history was lower in the observation group ( P<0.05). No significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of tracheal compression and stenosis, postoperative monitoring time, operation time, ventilator time, and risk of postoperative complications ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Tracheal stenosis is a common complication in children with vascular rings. Early surgical intervention is recommended for complete vascular rings and pulmonary artery slings (as an incomplete ring). Timely prenatal diagnosis of vascular ring anomalies combined with the implementation of an integrated prenatal-postnatal management strategy can significantly reduce the risk of preoperative hospitalization due to related symptoms and may lower the risk of subsequent tracheal surgery, potentially improving long-term prognosis.

Objective:To explore the factors influencing the success rate of culturing patient-derived gastric and colorectal cancer organoids.Methods:From Feb 2022 to Oct 2023, 398 tumor tissue specimens from patients who underwent gastric cancer and colorectal cancer resection at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University, were used for organoid culture. The clinicopathological factors affecting the success rate of organoid culture were analyzed.Results:The overall success rate of organoid culture in this group was 75.1% (299/398), with the success rate of gastric cancer organoid culture being 79.8%(154/193) and that of colorectal cancer being 70.7% (145/205). Different clinicopathological T stage ( χ2=4.765, P<0.05),histological type ( χ2=11.248, P<0.05), and tumor regression grade (TRG) grade after neoadjuvant chemotherapy ( χ2=7.797, P<0.05) were related to the success rate of organoid culture . Multivariate analysis showed that the TRG grade was an independent influencing factor( P=0.040). For colorectal cancer, different pathological T stage ( χ2=5.108, P<0.05), histological type ( χ2=11.270, P<0.05), and TRG grade after neoadjuvant chemotherapy ( χ2=6.797, P<0.05) were related to the success rate of organoidculture . Different from gastric cancer, the results of multivariate analysis of colorectal cancer showed that the histological type was an independent influencing factor ( P=0.018). Conclusions:The pathologic T stage, histological type of tumors, and TRG of cancer patients all have a significant impact on the success rate of establishing tumor organoids. Among them, the TRG grade is an independent influencing factor for the culture of gastric cancer organoids, and the histological type is an independent influencing factor for colorectal cancer organoids.

The strategy of pelvic lymph node dissection in patients with localized intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer(PCa)has been one of the research hotspots in recent years. This review synthesizes recent progress in clinical,diagnostic imaging and immunological aspects of pelvic lymph node dissection.It is found that the detection rate of metastatic lymph nodes in patients with localized intermediate-risk PCa is relatively low,and the survival benefit after dissection is not significant. PSMA PET/CT examination can be used instead of lymph node dissection for staging. Extended lymph node dissection in patients with localized high-risk PCa can achieve a higher detection rate of metastatic lymph nodes and possible survival benefits. However,excessive lymph node dissection can weaken the response ability to immunotherapy. The strategy for pelvic lymph node dissection in patients with localized intermediate-high-risk PCa needs further study.
