Background The quality of occupational health technical services is directly linked to the protection of workers' health rights and the efficacy of occupational disease prevention and control. However, the industry still faces critical challenges: sporadic instances of institutional non-compliance and persistent irregularities in professional practice continue to undermine overall service performance. Objective To assess the current quality status of occupational health technical services in Zhejiang Province and propose countermeasures for quality improvement, providing a scientific basis for policy optimization and service delivery quality enhancement. Methods A total of 69 occupational health technical service institutions in Zhejiang Province that obtained formal accreditation as of April 30, 2024, were sampled, including 3 public institutions and 66 private institutions (comprising 3 formerly Class-A, 28 formerly Class-B, 11 formerly Class-C, and 24 newly certified institutions). Following the Technical Protocol for Quality Monitoring of Occupational Health Technical Service in Zhejiang Province and the Technical Protocol for Proficiency Testing of Occupational Health Detection in Zhejiang Province, a quality assessment task force comprising national and provincial experts was established. Evaluation was conducted across four dimensions: qualification maintenance and compliance, standardization of technical services, authenticity of technical services, and proficiency testing, utilizing a combination of document review, on-site inspections, and technical skill assessments. Results The occupational health technical service institutions in Zhejiang Province were predominantly private entities (82.5%), with significant disparities in overall service quality. The pass rates for qualification maintenance and compliance, technical service standardization, technical service authenticity, and the excellence rate for laboratory proficiency testing were 81.5%, 80.7%, 97.3%, and 90.4%, respectively. Regarding qualification maintenance, the pass rates for "environmental conditions" (49.8%, 56.7%) and "instrumentation and equipment" (58.2%、65.6%) were significantly lower for formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions compared to other categories. In terms of technical standardization, "standardized on-site inspections" recorded the lowest pass rate (67.4%), with newly certified institutions at only 48.0%. Regarding technical service authenticity, formerly Class-C institutions exhibited issues such as missing raw chromatograms for blank samples (85.7% pass rate). In laboratory proficiency testing, public and formerly Class-A institutions achieved 100% excellence rates, but the performance of formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions was comparatively weak; specifically, the failure rate for organic analysis in formerly Class-C institutions reached 20%; the failure rate for dust testing items in newly certified institutions was 10.3%. Conclusion The overall quality of occupational health technical services in Zhejiang Province still requires significant improvement, particularly in basic institutional conditions, the standardization of on-site inspections, and laboratory proficiency in organic and dust analysis. Formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions should be the primary focus of quality management efforts. Differentiated regulatory strategies are recommended, alongside strengthening interim and ex-post supervision to gradually enhance the quality of occupational health technical services across all institutions.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of genistein （Gen） on etoposide-induced chondrocyte senescence and its underlying mechanism. MethodsThe C28/I2 cell line was treated with different concentrations of Gen and etoposide， and the cell viability was detected by the CCK-8 assay. The senescence model of C28/I2 chondrocytes was induced by etoposide， with Gen intervention. Senescence-associated β-galactosidase （SA-β-gal） staining was performed to detect the senescence-positive rate and staining characteristics of chondrocytes. The expressions of peroxiredoxin 6 （Prdx6）， cyclin-dependent kinaseto clarify the functional necessity of Prdx6. ResultsCompared with the etoposide group， the C28/I2 chondrocyte viability significantly increased （P<0.01）， the expression ofsenescence-associated proteins p21 and p16 decreased （P<0.01， P<0.05）， the expression of senescence-associated genes p21 and p16 reduced （both P<0.01）， the fluorescence intensity of senescence-associated proteins p21 and p16 was diminished （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the proportion of SA-β-gal-positive cells decreased （P<0.01） in the Gen+etoposide group. Compared with the Control group， the expression of Prdx6 was downregulated in the etoposide group （P<0.05）. Compared with the etoposide group， the expression of Prdx6 was upregulated in the Gen+etoposide group （P<0.01）. Compared with the Control group， the GPx activity significantly decreased in the si-Prdx6 group （P<0.01）. Furthermore， compared with the si-Prdx6 group， the GPx activity increased in the si-Prdx6+Gen group （P<0.05）. Molecular docking results revealed that Gen formed hydrogen bond interactions with the active site of Prdx6. After Prdx6 knockdown， the expression of senescence-associated genes p21 and p16 and the fluorescence intensity of senescence-associated proteins p21 and p16 both increased in the Gen+etoposide+si-Prdx6 group （both P<0.01）. ConclusionGen can inhibit etoposide-induced senescence of C28/I2 chondrocytes by upregulating the expression of Prdx6. This study provides potential drug targets and experimental basis for the prevention and treatment of chondrocyte senescence-related diseases.

Objective To investigate the distribution characteristics of Oncomelania hupensis snails in Yunnan Province fol-lowing interruption of schistosomiasis transmission, so as to provide the evidence for assessing the risk of schistosomiasis transmission and scientifically formulating the schistosomiasis surveillance program. Methods According to the requirements of the National Schistosomiasis Surveillance Scheme (2020 Edition), O. hupensis snail surveillance data were collected from 18 schistosomiasis-endemic counties (cities, districts) in Yunnan Province from 2020 to 2024, including area of snail survey, area of snail habitats, area of re-emerging snail habitats, number of frames surveyed, number of frames with O. hupensis snails, number of O. hupensis snails captured, and number of living snails, and the occurrence of frames with snails and mean density of living snails were calculated. Changes in snail status over the 5-year period from 2020 to 2024 and the differences in snail distributions specified by epidemic intensity, environmental type, and vegetation type were analyzed. Results The areas of snail survey increased from 1 727.96 hm² in 2020 to 3 894.45 hm² in 2024 (peak) across 18 schistosomiasis-endemic counties (cities, districts) in Yunnan Province during the period from 2020 through 2024. The areas of snail habitats increased from 70.36 hm² in 2020 to a peak in 2023 (172.04 hm²), followed by a reduction to 132.36 hm² in 2024, and the areas of re-emerging snail habitats increased from 42.71 hm² in 2020 to a peak in 2022 (78.43 hm²), followed by a reduction to 40.21 hm² in 2024. The occurrence of frames with snails and mean density of living snails increased from 1.24% (3 025/244 404) and (0.033 2 ± 0.038 7) snails/0.1 m² in 2020 to peaks at 2.03% (6 231/307 563) and (0.066 9 ± 0.068 4) snails/0.1 m² in 2023, followed by reductions to 1.04% (5 829/559 941) and (0.032 6 ± 0.057 7) snails/0.1 m² in 2024, respectively. There was a significant difference in the occurrence of frames with snails over the 5-year study period (χ² = 1 962.95, P < 0.05), and the occurrence of frames with snails reduced by 48.71% in 2024 relative to in 2023 (χ² = 1 411.05, P < 0.005); however, there was no significant difference in the mean density of living snails over the 5 years (H = 5.310, P > 0.05). There were significant differences in the occurrence of frames with snails (χ² = 481.27, P < 0.05) and mean density of living snails (H = 6.872, P < 0.05) in schistosomiasis-endemic areas with different epidemic intensities. The occurrence of frames with snails (χ² = 25.32 and 38.70, both P values < 0.017) and mean density of living snails (Z = 28.55 and 49.96, both P values < 0.017) were higher in schistosomiasis transmission-interrupted and eliminated areas with snails than in schistosomiasis-eliminated areas without snails, and the occurrence of frames with snails (χ² = 453.54, P < 0.017) and mean density of living snails (Z = −56.97, P < 0.017) were higher in schistosomiasis-eliminated areas with snails than in schistosomiasis transmission-interrupted areas with snails. O. hupensis snails were mainly distributed in paddy fields, dry farmlands and ditches; however, the occurrence of frames with snails (13.40%, 424/3 164) and mean density of living snails [(0.252 8 ± 0.158 7) snails/0.1 m²] were higher in ponds/weirs than in other types of environments (both P values < 0.05). Rice, dry farmland crops and weeds were main vegetations in which O. hupensis snails were distributed, and the occurrence of frames with snails (2.29%, 7 111/310 140) and mean density of living snails [(0.072 3 ± 0.018 9) snails/0.1 m²] were higher in weeds than in other types of environments (both P values < 0.05). Conclusions O. hupensis snails have been effectively controlled in Yunnan Province following implementation of integrated schistosomiasis control measures; however, there are still risk factors for schistosomiasis transmission, including reduced attention to schistosomiasis control and snail re-emergence. Improved control efforts and surveillance system construction and timely identification of risk factors of snail status and timely management are recommended to ensure the achievement of the target of schistosomiasis elimination as scheduled.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of Schistosoma japonicum infections in wild murines in schistosomiasisendemic areas of Yunnan Province, so as to provide the evidence for improving the schistosomiasis surveillance and early warning capability and implementing precise interventions in the province. Methods A total of 56 natural villages were sampled from 14 schistosomiasis-endemic counties (cities, districts) in Yunnan Province as surveillance sites from 2024 to 2025. Wild murines were captured using traps at night and characterized for species. Liver samples were collected from wild murines, S. japonicum eggs and miracidia were simultaneously detected using liver tissue compression microscopy, liver tissue homogenate microscopy, and liver tissue homogenate hatching. In addition, stool samples were collected from wild murine rectum, with S. japonicum eggs detected using a modified Kato-Katz thick smear technique and S. japonicum miracidia detected using the hatching test with nylon gauzes. Results A total of 15 577 valid murine traps were recovered, and 891 wild murines belonging to 16 species were captured, with a capture rate of 5.72%(891/15 577). The captured wild murines were predominantly districted in paddy fields, dry lands, ditches, ponds and marshlands, with Apodemus chevrieri, Rattus norvegicus, Crocidura attenuata, R. rattus sladeni, R. flavipectus, and Eothenomys miletus as dominant species. No S. japonicum eggs or miradicia were in laboratory; however, other parasites were identified in 25 wild murines. The prevalence rates of Schistosoma sinensis, Capillaria hepatica and Hymenolepis nana were 2.24% (20/891), 0.90% (8/891) and 0.56% (5/891), and the prevalence of S. sinensis and C. hepatica co-infection was 0.90% (8/891), respectively. Conclusions S. sinensis, C. hepatica and H. nana are predominant parasite species in wild murines in schistosomiasis-endemic areas of Yunan Province. No S. japonicum infection was detected during the study period; however, there is still a risk of wild murines as a potential source of infection for schistosomiasis transmission. Continuous intensified surveillance of S. japonicum infections in wild murines is a critical programme in schistosomiasis surveillance and early warning in Yunnan Province.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects and mechanisms of pulchinenoside A （PSA） on tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） -induced abnormal proliferation， migration， and invasion of synovial fibroblasts. MethodsA synovitis model was established by stimulating SW982 synovial cells with TNF-α. The low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 （LRP1） was knocked down using LRP1-specific siRNA or inhibited by the receptor-associated protein （RAP）. Cells were treated with various concentrations of PSA， and cell viability was assessed by CCK-8 assay. Protein levels of LRP1， matrix metalloproteinase-3 （MMP3）， and N-cadherin were measured by Western blotting. Proliferation was evaluated using an EdU incorporation assay. Migration and invasion capacities were examined by Transwell and wound-healing assays. mRNA expression of LRP1， MMP3， N-cadherin， IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α was detected by reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR （RT-qPCR）. Immunofluorescence staining was used to visualize the expression of MMP3 and N-cadherin. The involvement of LRP1 was further verified with the inhibitor RAP. ResultsCompared with the TNF-α-treated model group， PSA treatment significantly reduced SW982 cell viability （P<0.05）， downregulated MMP3 and N-cadherin expression （both P<0.01）， and decreased the proportion of EdU-positive cells （P<0.05）. Moreover， TNF-α stimulation upregulated LRP1 expression compared with normal controls （P<0.01）， whereas PSA treatment reversed this increase （P<0.05）. LRP1 knockdown or inhibition markedly decreased MMP3 and N-cadherin levels compared with the model group （both P<0.01）. Similarly， the combination of PSA and RAP led to significant reductions in MMP3 and N-cadherin expression compared with the model group （both P<0.01）. ConclusionPSA inhibits TNF-α-induced abnormal proliferation， migration， and invasion of synovial， at least in part， by downregulating LRP1 expression.

The intra-day and inter-day relative standard deviations ( RSD) for the detection of 2-amino-5-chloro-N, 3-dimethylbenzamide were 2.6%-3.0% and 3.1%-3.5%, respectively. Analytical accuracy of 2-amino-5-chloro-N, 3-dimethylbenzamide quantification ranged from 101.0 % to 108.4 %, and the limit of detection and limit of quantification were 0.11 μg/L and 0.36 μg/L, respectively. The blood samples were able to be stored at -20 ℃ for at least 7 days. Conclusion:The UPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS determination method is sensitive, efficient and accurate, and can be used for the determination of 2-amino-5-chloro-N, 3-dimethylbenzamide in blood.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of an antioxidant gel containing tea polyphenols combined with narrow-band ultraviolet B in the treatment of vitiligo.Methods:A single-center, randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted. From April 25 to June 27, 2024, patients with vitiligo were selected from the Department of Dermatology, Hangzhou Third People's Hospital. An open-label and researcher-blinded design was used. The patients were divided into 3 groups: a phototherapy group receiving phototherapy alone, a tea polyphenols combined group treated with an antioxidant gel containing tea polyphenols combined with phototherapy, and a positive control group treated with an antioxidant gel containing superoxide dismutase combined with phototherapy, with the treatment duration being 3 months. The efficacy was evaluated using the Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (VASI), and when the VASI was improved by ≥ 10%, the treatment would be considered effective. Changes in skin aging and skin barrier function indicators before and after treatment were assessed for 72 vitiligo lesions in the tea polyphenols combined group and for 72 lesions in the phototherapy group. Comparisons between the groups were performed using one-way analysis of variance, Fisher's exact test, chi-square test, or t test. Results:A total of 171 vitiligo patients with 307 target lesions were successfully followed up in this study, including 74 males and 97 females, and their ages ranged from 1 to 64 years. Among the 307 lesions, 95 were treated with phototherapy alone, of which 35 showed improvement, resulting in a total response rate of 36.8% and an average VASI improvement rate of 10.9%; adverse reactions occurred in 29 lesions (30.5%). Of 138 lesions treated with the antioxidant gel containing tea polyphenols combined with phototherapy, 73 showed improvement, resulting in a total response rate of 52.9% and an average VASI improvement rate of 24.0%; adverse reactions occurred in 10 lesions (7.2%). In the positive control group, 74 lesions were treated, and 40 showed improvement, resulting in a total response rate of 54.1% and an average VASI improvement rate of 18.3%; adverse reactions occurred in 5 lesions (6.8%). Compared with the phototherapy group, the tea polyphenols combined group showed a significantly increased total response rate and a VASI improvement rate (both P < 0.01), but a significantly decreased incidence rate of adverse reactions ( P < 0.001). No significant differences in the above indicators were observed between the tea polyphenols combined group and the positive control group (all P > 0.05). In addition, the changes in skin barrier function and skin aging indicators (except for wrinkle depth) before and after treatment were significantly reduced in the tea polyphenols combined group compared to the phototherapy group (all P < 0.05). After the phototherapy alone, the transepidermal water loss significantly increased ( P = 0.004), and the water content of the stratum corneum significantly decreased ( P = 0.012). However, no significant differences in skin barrier function or skin aging indicators were found between pre- and post-treatment in the tea polyphenols combined group ( P > 0.05) . Conclusion:The antioxidant gel containing tea polyphenols could effectively improve the efficacy of narrow-band ultraviolet B in the treatment of vitiligo, and alleviate skin aging and barrier damage caused by phototherapy.

This study aims to compare the vaccination rates and incidence of adverse reaction rates following administration of two domestically produced human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines in individuals aged 9-30 years,investigate the impact of distinct manufacturing processes and vaccination schedules on adverse reaction rates. From November 2023 to June 2024, the Immunization Planning Department of Liuzhou Center for Disease Control and Prevention conducted a single-center, randomized, open-label, parallel-group trial using community-based recruitment of eligible participants aged 9 to 30 years. Participants were randomly assigned to receive either of two domestically produced HPV vaccines (Walrinvax or Cecolin). As specified in the vaccine package inserts, subjects were stratified into a two-dose regimen group (aged 9-14 years) and a three-dose regimen group (aged 15-30 years). Vaccination rates were recorded, and adverse reactions within 0-30 days post-vaccination were monitored. The results showed that a total of 400 participants were enrolled. Both the full vaccination rate and the timely completion rate were significantly higher in the two-dose regimen group compared to the three-dose regimen group (Fisher′s exact test, P<0.01; χ2=7.06, P<0.01). A total of 985 doses were administered. The overall adverse reaction rate was 18.78% (185/985), with local and systemic reactions occurring at 8.02% (79/985) and 10.76% (106/985), respectively. The most frequent adverse reactions were injection site pain (4.97%, 49/985) and fever (4.47%, 44/985). No grade 4 or special-interest adverse events were reported.The incidence of adverse reactions for the two domestic HPV vaccines with different production processes (at 0/6 months) was 13.96% (55/394) and 17.46% (69/395) respectively, with no statistically significant difference (χ2=1.83, P>0.05).The adverse reaction rate was significantly lower in the 9-14 years group (9.77%) compared the 15-30 years group (24.91%)(χ 2=35.67, P<0.01). In conclusion, both domestic HPV vaccines demonstrated a favorable safety profile in the 9-30 years age group, with mostly mild adverse reactions. Compared to the three-dose schedule (15-30 years group), the two-dose HPV vaccination schedule (9-14 years group) significantly reduced the incidence of adverse reactions and improved vaccination compliance.
