Objective:To investigate the incidence of shoulder work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) among occupational population in China, and to explore their intrinsic association with personal and work-related factors.Methods:In April 2024, 73497 valid questionnaires of the Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Electronic Questionnaire were retrospectively analyzed from June 2018 to December 2023 in 22 provinces and 29 key industries in China, and the general information, occurrence of WMSDs and related risk factors of key occupational populations in different regions in China were collected. By using Chi-square test and confirmatory factor analysis, the relationship between shoulder fatigue and pain in key occupational groups and individual factors, work type, work posture and work organization was discussed, and the internal relationship was analyzed based on structural equation model.Results:Higher incidence of shoulder fatigue and pain were associated with female, lack of physical exercise, uncomfortable working posture and neck leaning forward ( P<0.05). Structural equation model analysis showed that work type, work posture and work organization were strongly correlated ( r=0.58, 0.55). Work organization and work type were strongly correlated with shoulder fatigue ( r=0.65) and moderately correlated with shoulder fatigue ( r=0.21). Shoulder fatigue was moderately associated with shoulder pain ( r=0.40). Individual factors, work type, work posture and shoulder fatigue could directly affect shoulder pain ( OR=0.07, -0.09, 0.17 and 0.40), and work type and work posture could also indirectly affect shoulder pain through shoulder fatigue ( OR=0.08, 0.03). Work organization only indirectly affected shoulder pain through shoulder fatigue ( OR=0.26) . Conclusion:The main influencing factor of shoulder pain is shoulder fatigue, followed by work posture and individual factors. Structural equation model can better reflect the complex relationship between work type, work posture and work organization and shoulder WMSDs. Improving work posture and work organization may be an effective way to control the influence of shoulder fatigue on shoulder pain.

Objective:To explore the structural equation model to explore the levels of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) and various risk factors in the feet and ankle of China's occupational population, providing scientific basis for for preventing WMSDs in feet and ankles.Methods:Data of 73497 national occupational epidemiological cases were selected from June 2018 to December 2023 used the Chinese version of the Electronic Questionnaire on Musculoskeletal Disorders. The adverse ergonomic factors and their source classification standard and confirmatory factor analysis were used to investigate foot and ankle WMSDs and their related risk factors (including individual factors, work organization, work posture, work type, fatigue, etc.) in key occupational groups in China, and structural equation model hypothesis, fitting, verification, and path and intermediary effect analysis were carried out. The model fit evaluation indexes included Chi-square specific degrees of freedom ( χ2/ df), gauge fit index (NFI), Tucker Lewis index (TLI), goodness of Fit index (GFI), adjusted Goodness of Fit index (AGFI) and approximate root mean square error (RMSEA) . Results:A total of 73497 occupational workers were surveyed, with local muscle fatigue and WMSDs incidence rates in the feet and ankles being 17.17% and 12.06%, respectively. The fitting index of the adjusted structural equation model basically meets the standard (GFI=1, AGFI=1, RMESA=0.042, NFI=0.716, TLI=0.663). The top three factors affecting feet and ankle WMSDs are feet and ankle muscle fatigue, work type, and work organization, with standardized path coefficients of 0.221, 0.105, and 0.095, respectively. The top two factors affecting feet and ankle muscle fatigue are work organization and work type, with standardized path coefficients of 0.548 and 0.383, respectively. Feet and ankle muscle fatigue, work type, work organization, and work posture have a direct effect on feet and ankle WMSDs, with effect values of 0.221, 0.105, 0.095, and 0.077, respectively. The organization and type of work can also have indirect effects through feet and ankle muscle fatigue, with effect values of 0.121 and 0.084, respectively.Conclusion:Feet and ankle muscle fatigue has a direct impact on WMSDs, and plays a mediating role between ankle and ankle WMSDs caused by work organization and work type. Feet and ankle muscle fatigue is an important pathway leading to feet and ankle WMSDs. It is recommended that employers and managers detect job fatigue early and take corresponding prevention and intervention measures, which can play a key role in preventing feet and ankle WMSDs.

Objective:To explore the structural relationship between WMSDs in the upper limbs and various risk factors in the occupational population in China, based on a large sample epidemiological survey and structural equation analysis, and to establish a structural equation model, so as to lay a foundation for the prevention and control of such diseases.Methods:The Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Electronic Questionnaire was used to conduct a nationwide survey on the prevalence of WMSDs in the upper extremity. Six factors related to WMSDs in the upper extremity were extracted by the classification standard of adverse ergonomic factors and their source and confirmatory factor analysis, including work organization, work type, upper extremity work posture, individual factors, upper extremity fatigue and upper extremity WMSDs. The structural equation analysis was carried out and the structural equation model was established.Results:The incidence of WMSDs and fatigue in the upper limbs was 24.44% and 43.76%, respectively. The adjusted structural equation model fitting indicators were generally up to the standard (GFI=1.000, AGFI=1.000, RMSEA=0.043, NFI=0.808, TLI=0.784) . The four exogenous latent variables of work organization, work type, upper limb work posture and individual factors were correlated. There was a strong positive correlation between job type and upper limb work posture ( r=0.865) , a moderate positive correlation between work organization and job type and upper limb work posture ( r=0.570, 0.490) , and a weak negative correlation between individual factors and the other three exogenous latent variables. Upper limb work posture and individual factors had direct effects on upper limb WMSDs, and the effect coefficients were 0.10 and 0.06, respectively. Upper limb fatigue played a mediating role between work organization, work type, upper limb work posture and upper limb WMSDs. The effect coefficient was 0.46, and the composition ratios of indirect effects were 100.0%, 100.0%, and 38.3%, respectively. The direct path effect of upper limb work posture, individual factors and upper limb WMSDs was weaker than the mediating path through upper limb fatigue. Conclusion:When carrying out the prevention and control of upper limbWMSDs, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the pathogenesis path of upper limb muscle fatigue and upper limb WMSDs caused by work organization, work type, and upper limb work posture, so as to provide theoretical reference for improving the prevention and control level of such diseases.

into control group,hyperlipidemia model group,and lovastatin group,with 5 rats in each group.The rats in control group were fed with standard diet,while the rats in hyperlipidemia model group and lovastatin group were fed high-fat diet for 12 weeks.Starting from the 8th week,the rats were administered treatments via gavage once a day for 4 weeks:the rats in lovastatin group received 2 mng·kg-1 lovastatin,while the rats in control group and hyperlipidemia model group received an equal volume of normal saline.The body weights of the rats in various groups were measured at weeks 1,8,9,10,11,and 12 after the experiment began;the histopathology of liver tissue of the rats in various groups was observed using HE staining;the serum levels of total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),malondialdehyde(MDA),as well as the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),and alanine aminotransferase(ALT),and the levels of interleukin-2(IL-2),interleukin-6(IL-6),interleukin-12(IL-12),and tumor necrosis factor-a(TNF-α)of the rats in various groups were detected using commercial kits;the composition of the gut microbiota of the rats in various groups was analyzed by 16S rRNA sequencing.Results:Compared with control group,the body weight of the rats in hyperlipidemia model group was significantly increased from the 8th week of high-fat diet feeding(P<0.05 or P<0.01 or P<0.001).Compared with hyperlipidemia model group,the body weight of the rats in lovastatin group was significantly decreased at weeks 11 and 12(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the livers of the rats in hyperlipidemia model group appeared rough,pale,enlarged,with blunt edges,and had a granular and greasy texture.Compared with hyperlipidemia model group,the livers of the rats in lovastatin group were light brownish-red,soft,with slightly blunt edges,reduced volume,and less granularity and greasiness.Compared with control group,the liver cells of the rats in hyperlipidemia model group were swollen and disorganized,with pyknotic nuclei,extensive inflammatory cell infiltration,and numerous vacuolar degenerations.Compared with hyperlipidemia model group,the rats in lovastatin group showed significantly reduced hepatocyte swelling and degeneration,more orderly and intact liver cell arrangement,decreased inflammatory cell infiltration,and reduced vacuolar degeneration.Compared with control group,the serum levels of TC,TG,and LDL-C of the rats in hyperlipidemia model group were significantly increased(P<0.05),and the serum HDL-C level was decreased(P<0.05).Compared with hyperlipidemia model group,the serum levels of TC,TG,and LDL-C of the rats in lovastation group were significantly decreased(P<0.05),and the serum HDL-C level was increased(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the serum MDA levels and the ALT and AST activities of the rats in hyperlipidemia model group were significantly increased(P<0.05),and the SOD and GSH-Px activities were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with hyperlipidemia model group,the serum MDA levels and ALT and AST activities of the rats in lovastatin group were decreased(P<0.05),and the SOD and GSH-Px activities were increased(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the serum levels of IL-2,IL-6,IL-12,and TNF-α of the rats in hyperlipidemia model group were significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with hyperlipidemia model group,the serum levels of IL-2,IL-6,IL-12,and TNF-α of the rats in lovastatin group were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the ACE and Chao1 indexes of the rats in hyperlipidemia model group were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with hyperlipidemia model group,the ACE and Chao1 indexes of the rats in lovastatin group were significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Compared with control group,the relative abundances of Firmicutes and Proteobacteria of the rats in hyperlipidemia model group were significantly increased(P<0.001),and the relative abundances of Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria were decreased(P<0.001).Compared with hyperlipidemia model group,the relative abundances of Firmicutes and Proteobacteria of the rats in lovastatin group were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),while the relative abundances of Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria showed no significant changes.Compared with control group,the relative abundance of Lactobacillus of the rats in hyperlipidemia model group was significantly decreased(P<0.001),and the relative abundances of Bacteroides,Desulfovibrio,and Clostridium were significantly increased(P<0.01 or P<0.001).Compared with hyperlipidemia model group,the relative abundance of Lactobacillus of the rats in lovastatin group showed no significant change but the relative abundances of Bacteroides,Desulfovibrio,and Clostridium were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01 or P<0.001).Conclusion:Lovastatin ameliorates liver injury induced by hyperlipidemia,and the mechanism may be related to its ability to improve gut microbiota composition and inhibit oxidative stress and inflammatory damage.

Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.

This report presents the management of a critically ill 36-year-old woman diagnosed with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph +ALL) at 28 weeks of gestation. The patient rapidly deteriorated, developing disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) , diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) , septic shock, and multi-organ dysfunction, necessitating admission to the hematological intensive care unit. Given her critical condition and advanced pregnancy, a chemotherapy-free induction regimen comprising imatinib and dexamethasone was initiated, alongside comprehensive supportive measures, including mechanical ventilation, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) , broad-spectrum antibiotics, and high-dose corticosteroids. During treatment, intrauterine fetal demise occurred, and a stillborn was delivered following obstetric intervention. With aggressive treatment, the patient's respiratory failure, DIC, and DAH gradually resolved, and she achieved complete remission. She subsequently received consolidation chemotherapy, CAR-T cell therapy, and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, achieving sustained complete molecular remission on long-term follow-up. This case demonstrates that for critically ill pregnant patients with Ph + ALL, a chemotherapy-free regimen of targeted therapy and corticosteroids, when combined with intensive supportive care, is a safe and effective approach that may offer a therapeutic option for similar cases.
