Background Public places are important areas for daily human activities. Frequent contact with public items promotes their role as vehicles for microbial spread, creating a substantial risk for the transmission of pathogenic microorganisms. Objective To understand the hygiene status and influencing factors of public items in typical public places in Shanghai from 2010 to 2024, and to provide a scientific basis for optimizing the hygiene management of public items. Methods Based on the monitoring data of public items in public places in Shanghai from 2010 to 2024, the hygiene status was evaluated in three stages: 2010–2019, 2020–2022, and 2023–2024. Chi-square test and logistic regression were used to analyze the impact of factors such as monitoring stages, public place types, and public item categories on the hygiene status. Results The public items in 13807 public places were monitored. A total of 1 022 bed sheets and 9 271 towels were tested for pH value, with qualified rates of 77.66% and 87.81%, respectively. The OR (95%CI) for the pH compliance of towels relative to bed sheets was 1.77 (1.45, 2.15). Compared with bathing places, the ORs for pH compliance of towels in hair salons and beauty salons were 2.24 (1.75, 2.87) and 2.15 (1.57, 2.95), respectively. Additionally, a total of 221 650 samples from various public items were tested for microorganisms, yielding 215554 qualified samples, with an average qualified rate of 97.25%. The qualified rates for total bacterial count, total fungal count, coliforms, and Staphylococcus aureus were 92.66%, 94.63%, 98.85%, and 99.84%, respectively. The logistic regression analysis showed that, compared to the 2016–2019 baseline, no statistically significant differences were observed in the qualified rates of total fungal count across different stages; however, significantly higher qualified rates for total bacterial count, total fungal count, coliforms, and Staphylococcus aureus were recorded during 2020–2022, with ORs (95%CI) of 1.27 (1.16, 1.38), 23.20 (8.42, 63.94), and 12.08 (1.63, 89.92), respectively. Conclusion The pH compliance ranks among the top tier nationwide for cotton textile goods in Shanghai, suggesting minimal detergent retention. Furthermore, continuous improvement in cleaning and disinfection measurements has markedly enhanced the microbial hygiene of public items in public places.

ObjectiveTo identify the independent risk factors for pyloric lymph node （PLN） metastasis in patients with upper gastric cancer （UGC） and to construct a nomogram prediction model applicable for UGC patients. MethodsClinical data of 823 UGC patients attended between January 2020 and November 2023 were retrospectively collected. Patients were randomly divided into a training set （n=576） and a validation set （n=247） at a 7∶3 ratio. Based on the training set， multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors for PLN metastasis， and a nomogram prediction model was constructed accordingly. The model's discriminative ability and calibration were assessed using receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curves and calibration curves. Finally， external validation was conducted using the validation set to evaluate the model's stability and generalizability. ResultsMultivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that tumor size （OR=1.324， 95%CI： 1.053-1.667）， T3 stage （OR=5.738， 95%CI： 1.281-25.695）， T4 stage （OR=7.680， 95%CI： 1.542-38.247）， lymphovascular invasion （LVI） （OR=6.623， 95%CI： 1.384-31.708）， differentiation extent （OR=3.108， 95%CI： 1.545-6.251）， and fibrinogen degradation product （FDP） level （OR=4.849， 95%CI： 2.071-11.355） were independent risk factors for PLN metastasis in UGC patients.The nomogram model constructed based on these factors demonstrated areas under the ROC curve （AUC） of 0.815 （95%CI： 0.751-0.815） in the training set and 0.832 （95%CI： 0.731-0.933） in the validation set. Calibration curves indicated good agreement between predicted and observed outcomes. ConclusionThis nomogram prediction model exhibits good predictive performance for assessing the risk of PLN metastasis in UGC patients.

Background Swimming is becoming increasingly popular for its combined leisure and fitness benefits. However, polluted swimming pool water may pose various health risks. Previous studies have indicated that health indicators of swimming venues have lower qualification rates compared to other public places, highlighting the urgent need to optimize hygiene management measures. Objective To assess the overall hygiene status and identify the key factors influencing water quality in Shanghai’s swimming venues from 2010 to 2024, and to provide a scientific basis for optimizing water quality management. Methods Water quality was assessed in three stages (2010—2019, 2020—2022, and 2023—2024) based on the monitoring data of Shanghai’s swimming venues (2010—2024). The influences of monitoring stage, region, season, scale, day of week, and per capita attendance on water quality were analyzed using chi-square tests and logistic regression. Results From 2010 to 2024, water quality was monitored in 1478 swimming venues. The compliance rates of turbidity, pH, urea, oxidation-reduction potential, free residual chlorine, combined residual chlorine, total bacteria, coliforms, and heat-resistant coliforms in swimming pool water, and free residual chlorine in the foot disinfection basin water samples were 99.56%, 94.73%, 73.00%, 47.50%, 56.55%, 54.12%, 97.74%, 99.49%, 99.90%, and 69.19%, respectively. The overall water quality compliance rate was 85.28%. The main non-compliant indicators for swimming pool water were urea, ORP, free residual chlorine, and combined residual chlorine, along with free chlorine residual in the foot disinfection basin water samples. Using the period before the implementation of the new national standard as reference, the results of logistic regression revealed that the qualification rates of urea, ORP, and free residual chlorine in the swimming pool water samples, as well as free residual chlorine in foot disinfection basin water samples, were significantly higher during the two phases after launching the new standard (2020–2022 and 2023–2024), and the associated odds ratios (95%CI) were 1.28 (1.00, 1.64) and 1.48 (1.12, 1.95), 13.35 (7.63, 23.37) and 10.78 (7.00, 16.60), 2.54 (1.81, 3.58) and 3.18 (2.41, 4.20), and 3.14 (2.14, 4.60) and 2.83 (1.89, 4.23), respectively. Compared with the reference group, those sampled in urban pools and in non-summer seasons showed higher qualification rates of urea and ORP; in contrast, the pools with high visitor flow showed lower qualification rates of free residual chlorine in both water samples of swimming pools and foot disinfection basins (P<0.05). Conclusion The implementation of the new national standard has effectively enhanced the management standards and significantly improved overall water quality of swimming venues in Shanghai. However, the compliance rates of free residual chlorine and urea in swimming pool water still need further improvement. The compliance of some indicators is influenced by region, season, scale, and average passenger flow, particularly in small suburban swimming venues. Future efforts should focus on refining water quality management strategies and enhancing public health management.

Objective To analyze the efficacy and safety of different minimally invasive operations[endoscopic re-trogradebiliary drainage(ERBD)、endoscopic nasobiliary drainage(ENBD)、percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage(PTCD)] for choledocholithiasis complicated with acute cholangitis to provide reference for clinical treatment retrospectively. Methods A total of 151 patients with choledocholithiasis complicated with acute cholangitis at Department of Emergency Surgery in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were included and divided into four groups based on the four treatment strategies, including non-surgical treatment. Changes in leukocyte count, bilirubin levels, and liver function before and after treatment, as well as postoperative recovery, complication rates, length of hospital stay, and prognosis were compared among patients who underwent different surgical treatments. Results There were significant improvements in leukocyte count, percentage of neutrophils, and liver function of the patients underwent ENBD or ERBD operation (P<0.05). The total bilirubin and direct bilirubin were significantly reduced after ERBD, ENBD, and PTCD operations (P<0.05). Patients undergoing ERBD, ENBD, or PTCD demonstrated faster recovery times, fewer complications, shorter hospital stays, and lower mortality rates compared to those managed conservatively. Conclusions ERBD and ENBD as minimally invasive therapeutic modalities for the management of choledocholithiasis complicated with acute cholangitis, exhibit remarkable clinical efficacy, coupled with a high degree of safety and reliability. These techniques significantly enhance the long-term minimally invasive cure rate, thereby establishing them as the preferred treatment strategies. Tailored to the patient's specific clinical conditions, such as the severity of infection, stone dimensions, and the use of oral anticoagulant therapy, clinicians can formulate individualized minimally invasive treatment strategies, facilitating the optimal attainment of therapeutic objectives.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effects of Polygala tenuifolia compatibility on toxicity， anti-inflammatory and analgesic efficacy of sand-ironing Strychnos nux-vomica （SS）. METHODS The preparation of SS single decoction， SS-P. tenuifolia core-removed （PC） （1∶2.5） or （1∶5） combined decoction， and SS-PC （1∶5） mixture were carried out to investigate their median lethal dose （LD50）. Using aspirin as positive control， the number of writhing movements， analgesic rate， pain latency， ear swelling degree and inflammation inhibition rate induced by the above-mentioned medicinal liquids in mice were compared. The contents of the active and toxic components， strychnine and brucine， in the above-mentioned medicinal liquids were also determined. RESULTS The LD50 values of SS single decoction， SS-PC （1∶2.5） combined decoction， SS-PC （1∶5） combined decoction and SS- PC （1∶5） mixture were 302.00， 614.47， 1 445.44 and 1 778.28 mg/kg， respectively. Compared with control group， the number of writhing movements and ear swelling degree in the mice of the above-mentioned medicinal liquid groups were reduced or decreased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； pain latency [at 90 and 120 minutes in the SS single decoction group， at 60 and 90 minutes in the SS-PC （1∶2.5） combined decoction group， and at 60，90， 120 minutes in the SS-PC （1∶5） combined decoction group and SS-PC （1∶5） mixture group] was significantly prolonged （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； analgesic rates of the respective medicinal liquids were 39.30%， 70.87%， 80.00% and 82.46%， and inflammation inhibition rates were 38.08%，TD 57.89%， 76.47% and 50.46%； analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of combined decoction and mixture were generally better than those of the single decoction （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. In the above-mentioned four medicinal liquids， the total contents of strychnine were 0.71%， 0.42%， 0.47% and 0.64%， and the total contents of brucine were 0.88%， 0.63%， 0.57% and 0.88%， respectively. CONCLUSIONS The combination of P. tenuifolia can reduce the toxicity of SS and enhance its anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Moreover， there is a tendency for the toxicity-reducing and efficacy-enhancing effects to increase with the increasing dosage of P. tenuifolia. Additionally， the combined decoction of SS and P. tenuifolia can reduce the contents of the active and toxic components， strychnine and brucine， in SS.

Objective To investigate the current status and influencing factors of anticipatory grief of main caregivers of young and middle-aged patients with advanced liver cancer by cross-sectional survey.Methods A total of 330 caregivers of young and middle-aged patients with advanced liver cancer who were admitted to The Third Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from January 2023 to May 2023 were enrolled as research objects by convenience sampling.A questionnaire survey on general information,anticipatory grief and simple coping style was conducted on these caregivers one day before discharge.Results The score of anticipatory grief of the caregivers was 94.10±22.33.Multiple linear stepwise regression analysis was performed with statistically significant data from the characteristics of the research objects as independent variables and anticipatory grief as the dependent variable,and the result showed that gender,monthly income,educational level,personality self-assessment and coping were main factors affecting anticipatory grief of main caregivers of young and middle-aged patients with advanced liver cancer(all P<0.05).The mean score for positive response was 2.23±0.14,which was negatively associated with anticipatory grief(P=0.041).The mean score for negative response was 1.31±0.24,which was positively associated with anticipatory grief(P<0.001).Conclusion The anticipatory grief of main caregivers of young and middle-aged patients with advanced liver cancer is at a high level.The anticipatory grief is negatively related to positive coping,and positively related to negative coping.The main factors affecting anticipatory grief of main caregivers of young and middle-aged patients with advanced liver cancer are gender,family economic status,educational level,and introverted personality.

Background Industrial emissions are a well-established major source of urban fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) and associated heavy metals. To improve local air quality, Shanghai No. 1 Iron and Steel Plant in Baoshan District was entirely relocated, with all production lines successively shut down in 2018. Objective To evaluate the trends in PM_2.5 and three heavy metal concentrations - chromium (Cr), mercury (Hg), and thallium (Tl) —in the local atmosphere pre- and post- relocation of the steel plant. Methods Taking the steel plant relocation in 2019 as the intervention cutoff point, this study was divided into two phases: pre-intervention (January 2017 to December 2018) and post-intervention (January 2019 to December 2021). Monthly mean pollutant concentrations were used to construct an interrupted time series (ITS) model, followed by segmented linear regression to assess the pre- and post-intervention trends in ambient PM_2.5 and three heavy metals surrounding thesteel plant. Results The ITS regression analysis revealed that the change in PM_2.5 concentration (b₂) after the intervention was −7.16 μg·m⁻³, while the changes in Cr, Hg, and Tl concentrations (b₂) were −0.46, −0.03, and −0.06 ng·m⁻³, respectively. Prior to the intervention, PM_2.5 mass concentrations exhibited a temporal decline with a slope of b₁ = –0.69 (P<0.05); seasonal adjustment further strengthened the overall significance of the model. Before the intervention, the concentration of Cr increased over time, with a slope of b₁=0.12 (P<0.05). After the intervention, the concentration of Cr showed a gradual downward trend over time, with a slope (b₁ + b₃) of −0.04, and significant seasonal variations were observed. The concentration of Hg decreased over time before the intervention, with a slope of b₁=−0.0029 (P<0.05). After the intervention, the slope was −0.0003, showing a further slow decline in Hg concentration over time. However, no significant seasonal trend was observed for Hg. The mass concentration of Tl decreased after the intervention, and the difference before and after the intervention was statistically significant (P<0.05). PM_2.5, Cr, and Tl better fit to the seasonal model, whereas Hg showed a better fit to the non-seasonal model. Conclusion The steel plant relocation intervention has markedly improved local air quality.
