Mineral oil contaminants composed of saturated hydrocarbons(MOSH)and aromatic hydrocarbons(MOAH)are commonly found in edible oils and related processed foods.Currently,the analysis of mineral oils primarily employs the liquid chromatography-gas chromatography-flame ionization detector(LC-GC-FID)method.Liquid chromatography is used to purify and separate MOSH and MOAH from interfering substances,and the interface technology transfers MOSH or MOAH into different GC channels for quantitative analysis.The MOSH and MOAH chromatograms typically exhibit an irregular hump shape,with sharp peaks above the hump representing natural hydrocarbon interferences,which usually do not affect the identification of the hump profile.However,when the purification of interferences is incomplete,they can form one or more gaps above the hump,interfering with the accurate judgment and delineation of the hump profile,and leading to poor reproducibility of analysis results of mineral oil.In this study,an algorithm that mimicked the manual drawing of the hump shape or contour was proposed for automatically determining the mineral oil hump contour(i.e.,the lower envelope line).The algorithm used a multiple second-order difference quotient filtering method to identify and remove the gaps above the hump.The method involved first searching and determining the lowest value of the mineral oil hump,which was the valley point sequence,and then applying second-order difference quotient filtering to the valley point sequence.Compared to the hump,the second-order difference quotient of sharp peaks was a significantly larger negative value.By filtering out the points in the valley point sequence with larger negative second-order difference quotients(or multiple second-order difference quotients),the sharp peaks above the hump were removed.To verify the accuracy of the algorithm,42 different types of samples,including edible oils and milk powders were analyzed,using both the automatic algorithm and manual methods.The results showed that there were no significant differences in the detected mineral oil contents between these two methods.

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.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Background and purpose:As one of the first-line treatment methods for differentiated thyroid cancer(DTC),131I treatment is an important therapeutic approach for most patients with medium-high recurrence risk DTC after total or near-total thyroidectomy.Risk stratification and real-time dynamic assessment before 131I treatment after surgery are important steps in deciding on 131I treatment,enabling individualized treatment.This retrospective study aimed to explore the role of diagnostic whole body scan(DxWBS)in the decision-making of treatment for DTC after surgery and before 131I therapy.Methods:DTC patients who underwent pre-ablation evaluation were included.Patients were divided into low,medium and high sTg groups based on their pre-131I treatment stimulated thyroglobulin(sTg)levels(<1 ng/mL,1 ng/mL≤sTg<10 ng/mL,sTg≥10 ng/mL).The concordance rates of DxWBS and post treatment whole body scan(RxWBS)in each patient of the whole cohort were compared.The lesion detection rate between DxWBS and RxWBS in different sTg level groups was also explored.The"thyroid stunning effect"by DxWBS was evaluated by RxWBS.Through these analyses,the role of DxWBS in 131I treatment decision-making and its predicting treatment objectives were assessed.This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Peking Union Medical College Hospital,Peking Union Medical College,Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences(ethics number:JS-2151).Results:A total of 91 patients were included.The low,medium and high sTg groups accounted for 15.4%(14/91),34.1%(31/91)and 50.5%(46/91)of the patients,respectively.Comparison of DxWBS and RxWBS results in the same patients in each sTg group showed no evidence of a stunning effect on 131I treatment.The overall concordance rate between DxWBS and RxWBS was 89.0%(81/91);In different sTg level groups was 100.0%(14/14),90.3%(28/31),84.8%(39/46)respectively.Taking sTg levels into consideration,DxWBS accurately predicted the need for total thyroidectomy,with a 100%(20/20)agreement with RxWBS.Among the 71 patients who received adjuvant therapy and/or remnant ablation due to suspected elevated Tg or high recurrence risk stratification or the iodine-avid metastatic lesions identified by DxWBS,87.5%(63/71)showed only residual thyroid tissue by DxWBS;Through the purpose verification by RxWBS and single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT)/CT,only 12.7%(9/71)of cases were verified as adjuvant or tumoricidal treatment due to iodine-avid cervical lymph node and/or lung metastasis identified by RxWBS,87.3%(62/71)were residual thyroid ablation.In the medium and high sTg group,the overall detection rate of functional cervical lymph node metastasis by DxWBS and RxWBS was 5.5%(5/91).For the detection of functional lung metastases,the overall detection rate of DxWBS was slightly lower than that of RxWBS(3.3%vs 5.5%).This indicates that DxWBS can be used to accurately pre-judge the purposes of 131I treatment,particularly for thyroid ablation and adjuvant therapy.Conclusion:DxWBS did not induce"thyroid stunning"effect.Integrating DxWBS as a theranostic tool into the real-time decision-making and evaluation system of 131I treatment,as well as with sTg and other biochemical indicators,may help to bridge the limitations of static evaluations based on pathology and clinical data,and provides a clear understanding and more precise objectives of 131I treatment.

Gefitinib,a first-generation epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)tyrosine kinase inhibi-tor(TKI),exerts significant therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)by selectively targeting mutant forms of EGFR.However,the development of acquired resistance signifi-cantly limits its long-term clinical benefits.Cell division cycle 20(CDC20),a key regulator of cell cycle progression,has been implicated in the tumorigenesis and progression of various malignancies.Neverthe-less,its role and underlying regulatory mechanisms in the acquisition of drug resistance in NSCLC remain largely unexplored.This study aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which CDC20 contributes to gefitinib resistance in NSCLC.Gefitinib-resistant cell lines,HCC827/GR(ICs0 0.05±0.01 μmnol/L vs 36.24±6.21 μmol/L)and PC9/GR(IC50 0.02±0.01 μmol/L vs 25.36±5.57 μmol/L),were established through stepwise drug induction,exhibiting markedly increased IC50 values compared to their parental counterparts.Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the transcriptional level of CDC20 is signifi-cantly upregulated in lung cancer tissues and is associated with poor patient prognosis.Western blotting analysis confirmed elevated CDC20 protein levels in the resistant HCC827/GR and PC9/GR cells relative to the parental HCC827 and PC9 cells.To further investigate the functional role of CDC20 in NSCLC ge-fitinib resistance,CDC20 was knocked out using CRISPR/Cas9 technology.This genetic intervention sig-nificantly restored gefitinib sensitivity in resistant cells(IC 50 37.08±6.15 μmol/L vs 10.49±1.83μmol/L,7.23±1.55 μamol/L),while concurrently promoting apoptosis and inducing G2/M phase cell cycle arrest.Conversely,CDC20 overexpression decreased drug sensitivity in parental cells and notably attenuated gefitinib-induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.Mechanistically,CDC20 depletion was found to inhibit activation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway,upregulate pro-apoptotic proteins such as cleaved-Caspase 3 and Bax,and downregulate the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2.Collectively,these find-ings demonstrate that CDC20 mediates gefitinib resistance in NSCLC through modulation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway,thereby identifying CDC20 as a potential therapeutic target for overcoming resistance to EGFR-targeted therapies.
