Organic ultraviolet absorbers (OUVs) have been widely used in personal care products and industrial products due to their unique physicochemical properties. However, with the advancement of science and technology and the deepening of research, the potential risks of OUVs have gradually emerged. They have been proven to be persistent, bioconcentrated and potential endocrine disruptors that may pose a threat to human health. In recent years, some OUVs have been widely detected in environmental and human samples worldwide, and the concentration of detection has been increasing year by year, which has attracted extensive attention both domestically and internationally. This article summarizes the research results of OUVs exposure in recent years from two aspects: external environmental exposure and internal human exposure, aiming to provide a valuable reference for the subsequent research on human exposure and health risk assessment of OUVs.

Objective:To investigate the status of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) health literacy and associated factors in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.Methods:Based on the multi-stage stratified sampling method, the questionnaire survey of health literacy of COVID-19 were carried out in 55 599 local residents from12 prefecture-level cities of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region between March 10 and 15, 2020. The questionnaire in details included not only knowledge, attitude and behavior, but also mental health, their scores were calculated using Decimal method. A ≥80% of the correct answer rate of the survey content was regarded as qualified for health literacy. There were 51 722 (93.0%) valid questionnaires, according to the ratio of medical staff to non-medical staff, 32 529 questionnaires were selected for analysis. The health literacy level was defined according to the proportion of qualified people.The credibility and availability of the questionnaires were evaluated by Cronbach′s α coefficient and KMO test. The associated factors were analyzed by Pearson χ 2 test and logistic regression. Results:In Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the whole level of health literacy of COVID-19 was 85.7%, and their scores were (26.30±2.48). Knowledge, attitude, and behavioral literacy levels were 61.6%, 95.6%, and 96.8%, respectively. Compared with the population of 15-25 years old, the health literacy level of 46-65 years old was the highest ( OR=2.00, 95% CI: 1.78-2.24). The health literacy level of medical staff group ( OR=2.54, 95% CI: 1.30-4.95) was far higher than the non-medical staff group; the population with college or above education level ( OR=10.22, 95% CI: 9.19-11.36) was significantly higher than the population with education level below college. The degree of anxiety was negatively correlated with education level. Conclusions:The health literacy level of COVID-19 in residents in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is relatively high, but the level of knowledge literacy needs to be improved. The main factors affecting the health literacy of COVID-19 among Inner Mongolia residents are age, occupation and education level.

Objective To explore the effect of ultrasound guided percutaneous dilatation tracheotomy in critical ill patients.Methods From January 2016 to January 2018,95 critical ill patients who were treated in the People's Hospital of Quzhou were selected.According to the random number table method,they were divided into control group (n =47) and observation group (n =48).The patients in the control group were treated with traditional tracheotomy,and the patients in the observation group were treated with percutaneous dilatation tracheotomy under ultrasonic guidance.The operation condition of the two groups was observed,including operative bleeding volume,operative time,incision length,extubation time,incision healing time,hospitalization time and so on.The postoperative complications and mortality were recorded in the two groups.Results The operative bleeding volume,operative time,incision length and incision healing time in the observation group were (12.91 ± 1.36) mL,(10.05 ± 1.14) min,(1.46 ± 0.32) cm,(5.48 ±0.39)d,respectively,which were lower than those in the control group[(38.54 ± 3.47)mL,(27.43 ±2.29) min,(3.25 ± 0.68) cm,(7.64 ± 0.72) d],there were statistically significant differences between the two groups(t =40.098,39.616,13.888,15.381,P =0.000,0.000,0.000,0.000).The extubation time,hospitalization time in the observation group were (14.19 ± 1.14)d,(20.17 ± 1.85)d,respectively,which in the control group were (14.23 ± 1.17) d,(20.26 ± 1.89) d,respectively,there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (t =0.142,0.198,P =0.886,0.843).The incidence rate of postoperative complications in the observation group was 6.25％,which was lower than 21.28％ in the control group,there was statistically significant difference between the two groups (x2 =9.515,P =0.002).The ICU mortality and hospitalization mortality in the observation group were 2.08％ and 4.17％,respectively,which in the control group were 10.64％ and 12.77％,respectively,there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (x2 =2.937,2.277,P =0.087,0.131).Conclusion Ultrasound guided percutaneous dilatation tracheostomy can improve operation condition,reduce hospitalization time,and has less complications,low mortality,which has good clinical value in critical ill care.

Objective To evaluate the application values of diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) combined with neuronavigation in microsurgery of insular gliomas. Methods The clinical data of 27 patients with insular gliomas, admitted to our hospital from March 2013 to October 2017, were analyzed retrospectively. All DTT images were transferred to the neuronavigation system, and the three-dimensional location of tumors and pyramidal tracts were re-constructed. Surgical approaches were designed and excision scopes were defined before the surgery. Techniques on how to distinguish and protect the key blood vessels and pyramidal tracts were discussed. The treatment efficacies were analyzed. Results Total lesion resection was achieved in 22 patients (81.5％), subtotal resection in 4 (14.8％ ), and partial resection in one (3.7％ ). Postoperative pathology indicated 7 were oligodendrogliomas, and 20 were astrocytomas, including WHO grade I in one, grade II in 18, and grade III in one. One patient had transient aphasia (recovery after two weeks), 2 experienced worsened hemiplegia on opposite side of their bodies (normal after one month), and the left 24 patients remained intact function after operation. Conclusions The combination of DTT and neuronavigation is safe and effective in surgical treatment for insular gliomas, which can protect the brain function at greatest degree and maximize lesion resection, and improve the postoperative quality of life.

OBJECTIVETo determine the predicative significance of HRV and HRT to premature beat on patients with coal-worker's pneumoconiosis.

METHODS100 coal-worker's pneumoconiosis patients with premature beat (including 44 cases of occasional ventricular premature contraction and 56 cases of frequent ventricular premature contraction) were chosen as CWP group, and 50 healthy coal workers were chosen as control group. 24 h DCG was used to monitor and analyze the change of premature beat and to calculate HRV. Index: SDNN, SDANN, HFLF, HRT: TO, TS, compare HRV of CWP group and control group and the changes of HRT of both occasional and frequent ventricular premature contraction.

RESULTSThe incidence of CWP at night (66.1%, 37 cases) is higher than that during daytime (33.9%, 19 cases), and the difference is statistically significant with P < 0.05. HRV (SDNN SDANN HF HL) indexes of CWP group are lower than control group, and the difference is statistically significant with P < 0.05. HRV indexes of control group at night are higher than that during daytime, and the difference is statistically significant with P < 0.05. Comparison of CWP group HRV indexes between day and night is statistically insignificant with P > 0.05. Compared with control group, TO of CWP group is higher while TS is lower, and the difference is statistically significant with P < 0.05. Compared with occasional ventricular premature contraction patients in CWP group, TO of frequent ventricular premature contraction patients is higher while TS is lower, and the difference is statistically significant with P < 0.05.

CONCLUSIONFrequent ventricular premature contraction group in CWP group suffer from severe impaired autonomic nervous function injury, and abnormal HRV and HRT can be prognostic indicator of frequent ventricular premature contraction among coal-worker's pneumoconiosis patients.
