Background As one of the primary operational methods in the power grid industry, the insulated glove working method imposes significant physical demands due to the constraints of insulating equipment and specific required postures, resulting in substantial occupational health hazards among workers in this sector, which have garnered widespread social attention. Objective To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in the neck, shoulder, and lumbar regions among workers wearing insulated gloves, and to provide targeted measures to reduce occupational hazards. Methods Using stratified cluster sampling, 1079 frontline workers were randomly selected from power supply enterprises across 3 provinces in China. The revised Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire was used to investigate the 1-year prevalence of WMSDs in the neck, shoulder, and lumbar regions among workers wearing insulated gloves, and to collect factors associated with multi-site WMSDs (defined as involvement of ≥2 sites among the neck, shoulder, and lumbar). Results The 1-year prevalence of WMSDs in the neck, shoulder, and lumbar regions was 39.9%, 30.0%, and 25.3%, respectively, with a multi-site WMSDs prevalence of 32.0%. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that, compared to workers with technical secondary school education or senior high school education and below, workers with junior college education or bachelor’s degrees and above had a higher risk of multi-site WMSDs (OR=2.12, 95%CI: 1.47, 3.06). Compared to workers with <10 years of work experience, those with 10-<20 years of work experience had a higher risk of multi-site WMSDs (OR=1.96, 95%CI: 1.45, 2.67). Working in uncomfortable postures "sometimes" (OR=1.64, 95%CI: 1.14, 2.36), "frequently" (OR=2.75, 95%CI: 1.76, 4.29), and "very frequently" (OR=3.55, 95%CI: 2.04, 6.19) were significantly associated with an increased risk of multi-site WMSDs compared to never working in such postures. Frequent repetitive movements of the low back (OR=2.05, 95%CI: 1.48, 2.84) increased the risk of multi-site WMSDs, while sufficient rest time decreased the risk (OR=0.45, 95%CI: 0.34, 0.61). Conclusion The prevalences of single-site and multi-site WMSDs in the neck, shoulder, lumbar regions are relatively high among workers wearing insulated gloves. Factors associated with multi-site WMSDs include 10-<20 years of work experience, junior college education or bachelor’s degrees and above, uncomfortable working postures, frequent repetitive low-back movements, and lack of sufficient rest time.

Background A large number of power supply workers are involved in live working and are exposed to multiple risk factors for long periods of time during outdoor work, which in turn causes occupational health problems. Objective To identify potential ergonomic factors related to work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) and estimate the ergonomic risk of electricians. Methods A total of 31 workers were randomly selected from a training base under a power supply enterprise in Guangxi, and their operation processes were recorded by video. Using the Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) method, the workers were scored by the posture of their arms, neck, and torso during operation, and the final scores were summarized to assess their risk level. Two independent samples t-tests were used to compare the differences in RULA scores. Results A total of 31 videos for mounting/dismounting insulation mask and 29 videos for breaking/connecting contact terminal were collected. The RULA score for mounting/dismounting insulation mask was 6.6 ± 0.7 (left side) and 7.0 ± 0.2 (right side), most of the workers had a score of 7 (71.0% on the left side and 96.8% on the right side), and the upper limb and overall scores on the right side were higher than those on the left side (P < 0.05). The RULA score for breaking/connecting contact terminal was 6.9 ± 0.4 (both right and left sides), most of workers had a score of 7 (89.7% on the left side and 93.1% on the right side), and the difference of the overall scores between the right and left side for this operation were not statistically significant (P > 0.05). The ergonomic risk levels for both operations were level 3 or higher. Conclusion Mounting/dismounting insulation mask and breaking/connecting contact terminal are typical upper limb operations, and have a high level of ergonomics risk, requiring effective preventive and protective measures.

Animal surgery courses are a critical component of medical training;however,teaching practices have demonstrated problems,such as the difficulty of interdisciplinary teaching,students' weak concepts of sterility,poor clinical thinking,insufficient teamwork,shallow emotional investment,and ineffective value guidance.By integrating the characteristics of student learning and utilizing virtual simulation experiments alongside peer role models,an emotional-guidance teaching model has been established to enhance the effectiveness of"life education",through strengthened emotional identification and improved value guidance.The result indicate that this teaching model forms a closed-loop teaching process,aligns with students' cognitive patterns and cultivates their comprehensive abilities,and enhances teaching effectiveness.

Objective To establish the fingerprint of Xuemai Shutong granules by UPLC-ELSD and determine the contents of 9 components in the preparation simultaneously.Methods The UPLC-ELSD was used to establish the fingerprint of Xuemai Shutong granules,and determine the content of its 9 components.The similarity evaluation system,systematic,cluster analysis,principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis were used to evaluate the quality of different batches of preparation.Results The similarity degrees of UPLC-ELSD fingerprints of 11 batches of Xuemai Shutong granules were from 0.929 to 0.978,17 common peaks were calibrated,of which 11 peaks were identified:peak 3(notoginsenoside R1),peak 4[ginsenoside Rg,(Re)],peak 5(notoginsenoside R2),peak 6(ginsenoside Rb,),peak 9(astragaloside Ⅳ),peak 10(ginsenoside Rk3),peak 11(ginsenoside Rh4),peak 12[20(S)-ginsenoside Rg3],peak 13[20(R)-ginsenoside Rg3],peak 14(ginsenoside Rk1),peak 15(ginsenoside Rg5).The stoichiometric analysis divided 11 batches of samples into 2 classes,and the 2 principal components in PCA analysis reflected the information of 17common peaks,10 peaks which affected the quality difference are screened out.The linear relationship of the 9 components was good in their respective quality ranges in the content analysis(r＞0.999 2),the average recovery rate were between 95.02％-97.78％and the RSD were 0.69％-1.70％(n=6).The contents of notoginsenoside R1,notoginsenoside R2,ginsenoside Rb1,astragaloside Ⅳ,ginsenoside Rh4,20(S)-ginsenoside Rg3,20(R)-ginsenoside Rg3,ginsenoside Rk1 ginsenoside Rg5 in the 11 batches of Xuemai Shutong granules were 0.087 5-0.187 6,0.494 3-0.688 6,0.448 1-0.705 5,0.192 2-0.270 8,1.492 5-2.077 6,0.316 0-0.463 8,0.254 5-0.382 0,0.117 6-0.163 9,3.407 7-4.706 4 mg·g-1,respectively.Conclusions The established fingerprint and content determination method was accurate and reliable,which can improve the quality standard of Xuemai Shutong granules,and provide reference for its overall quality evaluation.

Objective To analyze the infection distribution,serotypes,and drug resistance of invasive pneumococcal disease(IPD)in children,and provide a reference for the standardized treatment of IPD and the rational use of antibiotics in clinical practice.Methods A total of 425 children with definitive diagnoses of IPD in the Department of Pediatrics,the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between March 2019 and November 2022 were selected as the research subjects.Information from the medical records of these children was reviewed,clinical data was collected,serotyping by podoconiosis test on the specimens of Streptococcus pneumoniae strains sent for preservation was determined,and the susceptibility test was performed.Results A sum of 425 children with IPD(with a mean age of 2.16±0.93)were collected in this study.Analysis of clinical infection types showed 189 cases(44.47%)of bacteremia pneumonia,80 cases(18.82%)of simple bloodstream infection,76 cases(17.88%)of septic meningitis,11 cases(2.59%)of infectious pleurisy,9 cases(2.12%)of infective peritonitis,7 cases(1.65%)of bone and joint infection,7 cases(1.65%)of infective endocarditis,and 46 cases(10.82%)of other infections in combination.A total of 14 serotypes were confirmed in this study,with detection rates of 162 cases(38.12%),90 cases(21.18%),42cases(9.88%),38 cases(8.94%),14 cases(3.29%)and 8 cases(1.88%)for serotypes 19F,19A,14,23F,6A,and 6B,respectively.The susceptibility test indicated that the resistance rates of erythromycin and clindamycin were both high,with 95.53%(406/425)and 99.53(423/425),respectively,while the resistance rates of amoxicillin,cefepime,and cefotaxime were all relatively low,with 13.65%(58/425),9.06%(81/425),and 17.18%(73/425),respectively.Comparison between the two groups of cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)isolates and non-CSF isolates showed that the rates of resistance to penicillin were 69.74%and 24.07%(χ2=59.59,P＜0.05),the resistance rates to cefepime were 50.00%and 12.32%(χ2=57.44,P＜0.05),the resistance rates to meropenem were 40.79%and 29.23%(χ2=3.88,P＜0.05),respectively,with statistically significant differences.Conclusion Cultivation identification and drug resistance monitoring of IPD should be strengthened in clinical work.Antibiotics should be effectively used according to the drug susceptibility results to minimize the drug resistance of Streptococcus pneumoniae and improve the efficacy of drug therapy.

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in women,but there is currently a lack of accurate prognos-tic assessment systems.The Naples Prognostic Score(NPS)is a prognostic prediction system that incorporates inflammatory and nutritional indicators.It has been proven to have important clinical utility in predicting the prognosis of patients with malignancies such as colon cancer,gallbladder cancer,endometrial cancer,and lung cancer.In recent years,research has found that NPS may be superior to TNMstaging in predicting the prognosis of breast cancer patients.It is an independent predictor of overall sur-vival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)in breast cancer patients.This suggests that NPS has great potential for applica-tion in predicting the prognosis of breast cancer.

ObjectiveTo analyse the clinical characteristics of different traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndromes in patients with heart failure based on information from electronic medical record. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted to collect clinical data of all inpatients with heart failure in the Department of Cardiology， Affiliated Hospital of Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 1， 2019 to December 31， 2020. A database of clinical TCM data was established to explore the characteristics of clinical data of basic information， syndromes and syndrome element types， and biochemical indexes. The distribution of TCM syndromes and syndrome elements in heart failure patients were also analysed， and the basic information and biochemical indexes of the patients with top 7 different TCM syndrome types were compared. ResultsA total of 1676 inpatients with heart fai-lure were included. The top 7 TCM syndromes of heart failure were syndrome of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis （477 cases， 28.46%）， syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis （439 cases， 26.19%）， syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis with water retention （274 cases， 16.35%）， syndrome of yang deficiency with water retention （145 cases， 8.65%）， syndrome of qi and yin deficiency （104 cases， 6.21%）， syndrome of qi and yin deficiency with blood stasis （80 cases， 4.77%）， syndrome of heart yang deficiency （59 cases， 3.52%）. Among the 1676 patients， 6 syndrome elements accounted for more than 5%. Blood stasis accounted for the highest proportion of TCM syndrome element type （1292 cases， 77.09%）， followed by qi deficiency （919 cases， 54.83%）， phlegm （498 cases， 29.71%）， water retention （434 cases， 25.89%）， yang deficiency （215 cases， 12.82%） and yin deficiency （191 cases， 11.40%）. Among the 1676 patients， 1308 cases of acute heart failure mainly showed syndrome of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis （386 cases， 29.51%）， and 368 of chronic heart fai-lure mainly showed syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis （118 cases， 32.07%）. Patients with syndrome of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis had the shortest disease duration of 0.3 months， while those with syndrome of heart yang deficiency had the longest disease duration of 15 months. The proportion of syndrome of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis was the highest in patients with heart failure combined with coronary artery disease， the proportion of syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis with water retention was the highest in patients with heart failure combined with atrial fibrillation， and the proportion of patients with syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis with water retention and syndrome of yang deficiency with water retention in those applying diuretics during the hospital stay was the highest with more than 86%. The different 7 TCM syndromes showed statistically difference in patients with complications including coronary artery disease， old myocardial infarction， atrial fibrillation， pre and post-admission medication usage including intravenous vasodilators， cardiac stimulants， diuretics， and level of blood chloride， blood urea， blood creatinine， blood bicarbonate， blood albumin， and blood total bilirubin （P＜0.05）. ConclusionThe most common TCM syndromes in patients with heart failure are syndrome of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis and syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis. Different TCM syndromes have different characteristics in gender， disease complications， medication before and after admission， and blood indexes.
