Objective:To explore the distribution and determinants of abnormal blood lipid metabolism among flying personnel with lumbar disc herniation and with different flying hours and to provide data for targeted intervention strategies.Methods:The hospitalization data of 214 male flying personnel was retrospectively analyzed who were admitted to the Air Force Medical Center between September 2020 and September 2023, diagnosed with lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion, and underwent blood lipid testing within 24 h of admission. According to the hours of flying, they were divided into <1 000 h group (45 cases), 1 000-<3 000 h group (107 cases), and ≥3 000 h group (62 cases). The blood lipid biochemical indicators [total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C)], basic information and personal history of the flying personnel were collected. The detection rates of blood lipid metabolism disorders among flying personnel with different durations of flight were compared. The chi-square test for linear trend was used to find out whether there was a trend of linear changes in the detection rates of various blood lipid disorders. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze the determinants of abnormal blood lipid metabolism.Results:There were significant differences in age, levels of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and non-HDL-C between flying personnel in different flying hours groups ( F=80.76, 4.67, 4.00, 6.35, P<0.001,=0.010, 0.020, 0.002). The levels of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and non-HDL-C in the 1 000-<3 000 h group were higher than those in the <1 000 h group ( P=0.023, 0.029, 0.003). The total detection rate of elevated triglyceride was the highest (28.04%). There was a significant difference in the detection rate of elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol between the 3 groups ( χ2=6.50, P=0.039), which was lower in the 1 000-<3 000 h group than in the <1 000 h group ( P=0.010). The results of the chi-square analysis of linear association showed that with the increase of flight duration, there was a linear decrease in the detection rates of elevated total cholesterol and elevated non-HDL-C ( χ2=4.17, 4.16, P=0.041, 0.041). The univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the <1 000 h, the 1 000-<3 000 h was an influencing factor for elevated triglyceride ( OR=4.406, 95% CI: 1.604-12.103) and elevated non-HDL-C ( OR=6.217, 95% CI: 1.403-27.551) while body mass index was an influencing factor for elevated total cholesterol ( OR=1.237, 95% CI: 1.055-1.450) and elevated non-HDL-C ( OR=1.298, 95% CI: 1.087-1.548). Current smoking was an influencing factor for elevated triglyceride ( OR=3.214, 95% CI:1.700-6.078) and decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( OR=3.200, 95% CI: 1.724-5.941). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that body mass index was a risk factor for elevated total cholesterol ( OR=1.245, 95% CI: 1.054-1.471) and elevated non-HDL-C ( OR=1.301, 95% CI: 1.082-1.564). Current smoking was a risk factor for elevated triglyceride ( OR=3.439, 95% CI: 1.550-7.631) and decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( OR=4.047, 95% CI: 1.901-8.729). Conclusions:Flying personnel with lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion and with different flying hours exhibit distinct features of phased blood lipid metabolism disorders. The triglyceride levels of those with 1 000-<3 000 h deserve more attention while the levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol should be brought under control for those with <1 000 h. It is recommended that hierarchical interventions be exercised according to flight stages, and that priority be given to controlling daily adjustable behavioral factors such as body mass index and smoking.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of intravenous thrombolytic therapy mode led by fast-track specialist nurses on patients with acute ischemic stroke(AIS).Methods This study involved 124 AIS patients who underwent intravenous thrombolytic therapy in the Department of Emergency of our hospital from March 2021 to February 2023.Among the patients,61 admitted between March 2021 and February 2022 received conventional AIS thrombolytic therapy were assigned to a control group.While the 63 patients who received AIS thrombolytic therapy under the specialist nurse-led intravenous thrombolytic therapy mode between March 2022 and February 2023 were assigned to an observation group.The two groups were compared in terms of the time from admission to completion of CT examination,time for signing the informed consent for thrombolytic therapy,door to needle time and percentage of DTN<60 minutes,as well as the post-thrombolysis scores according to the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)and satisfaction to medical consultation.Results The observation group exhibited a significantly shorter time from admission to completion of CT examination,a shorter time for signing an informed consent for thrombolytic therapy,a shorter door to needle time and a higher percentage of DTN<60 minutes,all with significant difference in comparison with those in the control group.After thrombolysis,the NIHSS score of the observation group decreased more than that of the control group(P<0.05).The patients and their families in the observation group reported significantly higher satisfaction compared to those in the control group(both P<0.05).Conclusion The fast-track specialist nurse-led intravenous thrombolytic therapy mode demonstrates the superiority in reduction of the time from admission to completion of CT examination,time for signing an informed consent for thrombolytic therapy,door to needle time and the NIHSS scores,higher percentage of DTN<60 minutes as well as improvement of patient satisfaction.

Tenofovir dipivoxil fumarate (TDF) is a anti human immunodeficiency virus and hepatitis B virus drug, which is commonly used in clinic. The osteotoxicity of TDF has always been a key issue of clinical concern. The bone toxicity of TDF is related to hypophosphatemia secondary to renal tubular toxicity. At present, there are few systematic descriptions of bone metabolism changes caused by TDF. In this paper, the effects of TDF on bone metabolism are reviewed from 3 aspects: its effects on osteoblasts and osteoclasts, bone turnover, and bone structure and fracture.

From providing funds for the global fight against infectious diseases,to actively participating in global health security actions,to strengthening mutual cooperation in the field of health,and providing medical treatment,training and scholarships to countries in need,China's foreign aid on global poverty alleviation is increasingly diversified and expanding in scale.Indeed,China is playing an increasingly important leading role in the global health agenda.It is worth mentioning that over the years,artemisinin compound have saved millions of lives all over the world,especially in poverty-stricken areas.China's work mode of malaria elimination has also been written into WHO's technical documents and recommended to other countries.Since 2007,Chinese medical staff has carried out the Artemisinin Compound Malaria Control Project in Comoros,bringing Chinese prevention and treatment programs to the local area.By 2014,Comoros had achieved zero deaths from malaria,and the number of cases had dropped by 98％.Now,this program is also extended to Togo,another African country.This article preliminarily summarizes the malaria profile in Togo and introduces China-Togo Cooperative Artemisinin Malaria Control Demonstration Project to provide a reference for better anti-malaria assistance in Togo,and also shows one of the substantive actions of China's participation in global health governance,which contributes Chinese wisdom and offers Chinese solutions to global poverty alleviation.
