Objective:
To analyze the occupational health literacy (OHL) level and its influencing factors among key populations in the tertiary industry in Lu'an City, Anhui Province, so as to provide a basis for developing targeted health interventions and improving regional occupational health policies.
Methods:
A stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select five categories of key populations from the tertiary industry in Lu'an City as study subjects from August to September 2024. Data on gender, age, education level, and OHL were collected through the National OHL Monitoring Questionnaire for Key Populations. The OHL levels were analyzed, and influencing factors of OHL levels among key populations were analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 1 243 individuals were surveyed, comprising 700 (56.32%) males and 543 (43.68%) females. The median age was 42.00 (interquartile range, 17.00) years. There were 609 individuals with OHL, and the OHL level was 48.99%. The OHL levels in fundamental knowledge of occupational health protection, healthy work styles and behaviors, knowledge of occupational health laws, and basic skills for occupational health protection were 84.71%, 60.34%, 43.93%, and 37.09%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that educational level (primary school and below, OR=0.149, 95%CI: 0.064-0.344; junior high school, OR=0.340, 95%CI: 0.184-0.629; high school, OR=0.408, 95%CI: 0.230-0.723), average monthly personal income (3 000-<5 000 yuan, OR=1.655, 95%CI: 1.092-2.508; 5 000-<7 000 yuan, OR=2.195, 95%CI: 1.302-3.699; ≥7 000 yuan, OR=2.062, 95%CI: 1.016-4.183), employer nature (private enterprises, OR=2.992, 95%CI: 1.569-5.443), and industry category (education, OR=3.423, 95%CI: 1.407-8.327; courier / food delivery services, OR=0.459, 95%CI: 0.268-0.787; healthcare, OR=7.539, 95%CI: 3.255-17.461) were statistically associated with the OHL level among key population.
Conclusion
The OHL level among key population in the tertiary industry of Lu'an City can be further enhanced, with educational level, average monthly personal income, employer nature, and industry category identified as the primary influencing factors.

Breast cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in women worldwide and the leading cause of most cancer-related deaths,posing a serious threat to women′s health worldwide.At present,although the prognosis of some patients with breast cancer has improved,the emergence of drug resistance and the metastasis and recurrence of breast cancer are still the main reasons for poor prognosis.CD36 is a multiligand transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on various cell types.In recent years,studies have confirmed that CD36 can reshape the lipid metabolism of cancer cells;promote the differentiation of tumor-related macrophages into M2 type and recruitment into tumor tissues;regulate the function of Treg cells,CD8+T cells,DCs,and other immune cells,and thus promote tumor development.In addition,CD36 is also associated with breast cancer stem cells,metastasis-initiating cells,and breast drug resistant cells.Therefore,CD36 could be an important potential therapeutic target for breast cancer.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness and prognosis of using improved domestic neonatal ureteral stents (referred to as improved double-J stents) for thoraco-amniotic shunting (TAS) in treating fetal chylothorax.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 21 cases of fetal chylothorax treated with TAS using improved double-J stents at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Nanjing University Medical School from April 1, 2018, to September 30, 2023. Surgical complications and perinatal outcomes were summarized, and the development of surviving infants in five domains (communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem-solving, and personal-social) was assessed using the Ages and Stages Questionnaires-Third Edition (ASQ-3). Descriptive statistical analysis was used. Results:(1) The median gestational age at prenatal diagnosis was 28.7 weeks (27.3-30.4 weeks), with 85.7% (18/21) of cases complicated by fetal hydrops, 90.5% (19/21) by polyhydramnios, and 85.7% (18/21) by bilateral pleural effusion. (2) The median gestational age at the first TAS was 30.9 weeks (29.7-32.7 weeks). Of the 21 cases, 10 required repeat stent placement due to dislodgement or blockage, with a total of 49 stent placements. The dislodgement rate within 7 days was 24.5% (12/49), and the blockage rate was 16.3% (8/49). The rate of premature rupture of membranes within one week post-stent placement was 9.5% (2/21), with an overall preterm premature rupture of membranes rate of 28.6% (6/21). The median interval from the first TAS to delivery was 30.0 d (19.8-40.0 d). Of the 21 cases, three opted for selective termination of pregnancy; the remaining 18 cases resulted in live births, with a median gestational age at delivery of 35.6 weeks (34.1-37.1 weeks), and three neonatal deaths. The overall neonatal survival rate was 15/18. Surviving infants were followed up to a median age of 30 months (7-48 months), with 13 showing normal development and two scoring below the ASQ-3 threshold.Conclusion:The improved double-J stent can be used for TAS in the treatment of fetal chylothorax, with generally favorable outcomes.

Objective Wnt signaling plays an important role in the development and progression of renal cell carcinoma (RCC).This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the Wnt signaling inhibitor 15-oxospiramilactone on the proliferation , migration, cell apoptosis, and cycles of the human RCC cell line 786-0, and to investigate the possible mechanisms of this small molecule acting on RCC in ivtro. Methods We treated 786-0 cells with DMSO ( blank control group ) and 15-oxospiramilactone at the concentrations of1.25μmol/L (low 15 -OSL), 2.5μmol/L (medium 15-OSL), and 5μmol/L (high 15-OSL), respectively, for 72 hours.Then we observed the changes in the proliferation and migration of the 786-0 cells by MTT and scratch-wound assay and determined their apopto-sis and cycles by Annexin V-FITC/PI assay and flow cytometry . Results 15-oxospiramilactone significantly inhibited the growth of the 7860-cells, with the IC 50of 1.088 μmol/L at 72 hours, and decreased their migration distance (P<0.05).After 36 hours of treatment, the apoptosis rates of the 786-0 cells in the low, medium, and high 15-OSL groups were (12.17 ±0.56), (18.54 ± 1.07), and (50.74 ±1.28) %, respectively, significantly increased as compared with (7.85 ±0.42) %in the blank control group (P<0.05), and in an obviously concentration-dependent manner.15-oxospiramilactone remarkably reduced the number of cells in the G0/G1 phase and increased that in the G 2/M phase (P<0.05). Conclusion 15-oxospiramilactone can significantly inhibit the pro -liferation and migration and induce the apoptosis of 786-0cells in vitro.It may be a potential anti-RCC agent.
