ObjectiveTo develop a core outcome set for musculoskeletal pain (MKP-COS) and a specific outcome set for traditional Chinese medicine external treatment (MKP-SOS-ETCM), providing a standardized basis for clinical research in musculoskeletal pain and serving as a reference for core outcome set (COS) development in related fields. MethodsExisting COS studies on musculoskeletal pain (MKP) were systematically searched, and core outcome indicators were extracted to form an initial item pool. The Delphi method was used, in which experts were invited to reach consensus on MKP-COS and MKP-SOS-ETCM. The inclusion criteria for consensus are set as an importance score of 7-9 points with ≥75% of experts reaching agreement. ResultsA total of 47 COS studies were included, and after discussion and consolidation, a preliminary item pool containing 34 outcome indicators was established. After three rounds of Delphi expert consensus, MKP-COS was identified, including five outcomes including pain, motor function, joint range of motion, activities of daily living, and adverse events/ adverse reactions; MKP-SOS-ETCM included six outcomes involving stiffness (including morning stiffness), joint tenderness count, work status/ productivity, overall physician assessment, structural damage, and muscle strength. ConclusionThis study has established MKP-COS and MKP-SOS-ETCM, forming a dual-dimensional outcome assessment system integrating both disease commonality and intervention specificity.

Objective To investigate the status quo of limited social participation in young patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), and analyze its influencing factors. Methods Using the random number table method, a simple random sampling method was employed to select 320 young patients with ankylosing spondylitis who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from June 2023 to June 2025. Chinese version of social participation scale was applied to evaluate the level of social participation of patients. The above patients were classified into unlimited group (n=148) and limited group (n=172). Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the independent influencing factors for limited social participation. Results Compared with the unlimited group, the limited group exhibited longer course of AS, higher BASDAI score, BASFI score, HAMA score, HAMD score and ASQoL score as well as lower PSSS score (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis suggested that course of disease, high disease activity score, high anxiety score, high depression scores and low social support scores are the relevant factors for the restricted social participation of young patients with ankylosing spondylitis. Conclusion The phenomenon of limited social participation is common in young patients with AS, and its occurrence is the result of a combination of factors such as disease course, disease activity, anxiety, depression and social support level.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in neck, shoulders and lower back among power grid workers. Methods A total of 371 workers from a power grid enterprise in Guangdong Province were selected as the research subjects using the convenience sampling method. A cross-sectional survey of WMSDs in the neck, shoulders and waist of the workers was conducted using the modified Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire. Results The overall prevalence of WMSDs among the power grid workers was 62.8%, with prevalence of 37.2%, 33.7% and 32.1% for WMSDs in neck, shoulders and lower back, respectively. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that power grid workers who did not maintain a good sitting posture or were unable to maintain good sitting posture over prolonged periods had a higher risk of neck WMSDs than those who maintained a good sitting posture (both P<0.01). A higher frequency of head-down posture during work was associated with an increased risk of neck WMSDs (both P<0.05). Female workers had a higher risk of shoulder WMSDs than male workers (P<0.05). A higher frequency of early awakening with inability to fall back asleep, as well as a higher frequency of head-down posture during work, were both associated with an increased risk of shoulder WMSDs (all P<0.05). Workers with a sedentary habit had a higher risk of shoulder WMSDs than those without (P<0.01). Workers with insufficient rest time had a higher risk of shoulder WMSDs than those with sufficient rest time (P<0.01). Both maintenance workers and managers had a higher risk of lower back WMSDs than workers in other occupational categories (all P<0.05). Workers who experienced nocturnal awakening with difficulty falling back asleep at frequency of several times per year, ≥1 time /month, ≥1 time /week, had higher risk of lower back WMSDs than those who never experienced such problem (all P<0.05). Workers with a sedentary habit and those uncertain about having a sedentary habit both had a higher risk of lower back WMSDs than those without (both P<0.05). Greater forward neck flexion during work was associated with an increased risk of lower back WMSDs (both P<0.05). Workers who occasionally tilted their necks to the side while working had a higher risk of lower back WMSDs than those who did not (P<0.05). Conclusion WMSDs are highly prevalent among power grid workers, particularly affecting the neck, shoulder, and waist. Influencing factors include individual characteristics, behavioral habits, work organization, work posture, and workload. Maintaining proper posture and adequate rest may reduce the risk of WMSDs.

Objective:
To investigate the self-monitoring blood pressure behavior and its influencing factors among residents in Jiangsu Province, so as to provide the basis for strengthening proactive blood pressure monitoring among residents.
Methods:
Permanent residents aged 35-75 years in six counties (cities, districts), Jiangsu Province, were selected using the stratified cluster sampling method in 2023. Data on basic information, disease history, and self-monitoring blood pressure behavior were collected, height and weight were measured to calculate the body mass index (BMI); and blood glucose and lipid levels were measured. Self-monitoring blood pressure behavior was defined as having measured blood pressure at least once in the past three months. Factors affecting self-monitoring blood pressure behavior were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 12 475 residents were surveyed, including 5 748 males and 6 727 females, with a male-to-female ratio of 1∶1.17. There were 3 855 residents aged 45-<55 years (30.90%) and 5 511 residents who had self-monitoring blood pressure behaviors (44.18%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the residents who were males (OR=1.167, 95%CI: 1.081-1.261), lived in rural areas (OR=1.430, 95%CI: 1.321-1.547), aged 45-75 years (45-<55 years, OR=1.384, 95%CI: 1.241-1.543; 55-<65 years, OR=1.397, 95%CI: 1.243-1.570; 65-75 years, OR=1.196, 95%CI: 1.049-1.363), had an annual household income ≥30 000 yuan (30 000-<60 000 yuan, OR=1.190, 95%CI: 1.072-1.321; 60 000-<110 000 yuan, OR=1.330, 95%CI: 1.191-1.485; ≥110 000 yuan, OR=1.746, 95%CI: 1.536-1.984), were overweight (OR=1.170, 95%CI: 1.070-1.280) or obese (OR=1.248, 95%CI: 1.120-1.391), were unaware (OR=1.221, 95%CI: 1.103-1.353) or aware (OR=3.937, 95%CI: 3.575-4.335) of having hypertension, were aware of having diabetes (OR=1.538, 95%CI: 1.354-1.749), and aware of having dyslipidemia (OR=1.265, 95%CI: 1.106-1.447) were more likely to have self-monitoring blood pressure behaviors.
Conclusions
Among the residents aged 35-75 years in Jiangsu Province, 44.18% had self-monitoring blood pressure behavior. Gender, place of residence, age, annual household income, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia were identified as influencing factors for self-monitoring blood pressure behavior.

Objective::To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy and clinical application of the Obstetrical Chinese Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC) Scoring System (OCDSS).Methods::This study is a retrospective study that collected 1063 cases from Wuhan Union Hospital, Yichang Central People’s Hospital, and the Central Hospital of Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture between July 2017 and June 2024. These cases were divided into DIC and non-DIC groups based on score standard. Diagnosis of DIC, the rate of hysterectomy, neonatal mortality, and severe asphyxia are the main outcome measures. All the laboratory indicators are all determined by clinical laboratory department of the hospital. Data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation or median (interquartile range) and frequencies. Independent sample t-test or non-parametric test were used to compare measurement data, while the chi-square test was used for count data. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under curve (AUC) were used to test the predictive accuracy. Using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis to study the high-risk factors. P < 0.050 indicates a statistical significance. Results::Of 1063 participants in this study, 29 participants (2.73%) were diagnosed with obstetrical DIC by OCDSS score standard, and all the participants were diagnosed as DIC with underlying disease. When the Takao, Clark, and Erez score standard is the "gold standard", the OCDSS score standard always shows good sensitivity and specificity, with all the AUC over 0.75. OCDSS score standard also has better predictive of hysterectomy (68.18%, 91.07%, 0.872), severe neonatal asphyxia and death (79.17%, 75.07%, 0.842) than the other three score standards. All the indicators included in the OCDSS score standard contributed to the DIC diagnosis (all the P < 0.001). The indicators in the DIC group were more abnormal than the non-DIC group (all the P < 0.001). Conclusion::OCDSS is a first score standard, especially for pregnancies, it considers the underlying disease, clinical symptoms, and laboratory results. This score system shared a good diagnosis performance for DIC in the Chinese population and may help clinicians make timely decisions.

Objective:To assess the efficacy and safety of Tacrolimus(TAC)in combination with glucocorticosteroid(GC)for treating IgA vasculitis nephritis(IgAVN)in children.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on pediatric patients who were diagnosed with IgAVN from January 2015 to January 2022 in Children's Hospital of Hebei Province.The patients presented with nephrotic-range proteinuria or persistent urine protein(>0.5g/24 h)despite adequate glucocorticoid and other treatments in patients who do not reach massive proteinuria levels.They were treated with TAC combined with GC. The following laboratory parameters were obtained for outcome assessment: 24-hour urinary protein excretion, serum albumin, serum creatinine levels, and fasting blood glucose measurements. The efficacy and adverse reactions of TAC were summarized.Results:A total of 97 children (55 males and 42 females) were included. The average age of diagnosis of IgA vasculitis was (8.65±2.46) years, and 95.9% of the children developed renal involvement within 30 days after diagnosis. Pathological examination of renal puncture: 5 cases of grade Ⅱa, 2 cases of grade Ⅱb, 31 cases of grade Ⅲa, 57 cases of grade Ⅲb, and 2 cases of grade Ⅳb.Remission rate at 3 months was 96.9%(94/97).Three patients failed to achieve clinical remission who were treaed with other immunosuppressants.After 1, 3, 6 and 12 months of TAC treatment, the urine protein levels of 94 children were lower than those before treatment, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05), showing a gradual downward trend. Serum albumin levels were higher than those before treatment, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05), showing a gradual upward trend.After 3 months and 6 months of TAC treatment, the serum creatinine and fasting blood glucose of the children increased. With the remission of the disease, TAC dosage decreased, the mean values of serum creatinine and fasting blood glucose decreased after 12 months of treatment.The average treatment time of TAC was (10.8±2.6) months, the average follow-up time was (3.33±1.56) years, and the longest follow-up time was 8 years. During the follow-up period, there were no serious adverse reactions such as gastrointestinal discomfort, liver function damage and severe infection. After stopping GC and TAC treatment, 80 children got sustained remission. Conclusion:The combination of TAC and GC has been proved to be effective in treating IgAVN in children.The overall effective rate is high,and clinical remission can be achieved quickly with relatively mild adverse reactions.
