Objective To investigate the safety, economic benefits and psychological effects of day breast conserving surgery for breast cancer. Methods The demographic data and clinical data of breast cancer patients undergoing day (day surgery group) and ward (ward surgery group) breast conserving surgeries in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from March 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively collected; the demographic data, clinical data, medical and related transportation costs, and preoperative and postoperative BREAST-Q scores of breast cancer patients undergoing day (day surgery group) and ward (ward surgery group) breast conserving surgery in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from June 2021 to June 2022 were prospectively collected. The safety, economic benefit, and psychological satisfaction of day surgery was analyzed. Results A total of 42 women with breast cancer were included in the retrospective study and 39 women with breast cancer were included in the prospective study. In both prospective and retrospective studies, the mean age of patients in both groups were <50 years. There were only statistical differences between the two groups in the aspects of hypertension (P=0.022), neoadjuvant chemotherapy (P=0.037) and postoperative pathological estrogen receptor (P=0.033) in the prospective study. In postoperative complications, there were no statistical differences in the surgical-related complications or anesthesia-related complications between the two groups in either the prospective study or the retrospective study (P>0.05). In terms of the overall cost, we found that the day surgery group was more economical than the ward surgery group in the prospective study (P=0.002). There were no statistical differences in postoperative psychosocical well-being, sexual well-being, satisfaction with breasts or chest condition between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion It is safe and reliable to carry out breast conserving surgery in day surgery center under strict management standards, which can save medical costs and will not cause great psychological burden to patients.

Objective To analyze the current status and influencing factors of occupational health literacy (OHL) among noise-exposed workers in the automotive manufacturing industry. Methods A total of 1 188 front-line workers in noise-exposed positions in the automotive manufacturing industry were selected by judgment sampling method. The OHL status of the workers was investigated using the Occupational Health Literacy Questionnaire of National Key Population, and the influencing factors of OHL were analyzed. Results The overall OHL level was 30.13% (358/1 188). The result of binary logistic regression analysis showed that marital status, educational level, personal monthly income, household registration, enterprise scale and weekly working hours were influencing factors of OHL level (all P<0.05). Specifically, being married, having a high school education or higher, monthly personal income >5 000 yuan, being from a non-agricultural household, working in a medium-sized enterprise, and working more than >40-48 hours per week were protective factors for high OHL levels (all P<0.05). Conclusion There is considerable room for improvement in the OHL of noise-exposed workers in the automotive manufacturing industry. Focus should be placed on workers who are unmarried, widowed, or divorced, have educational levels below high school, earn less than 5 000 yuan per month, have agricultural household registrations, work in small or micro-sized enterprises, or work ≤40 hours per week, with targeted strategies to improve their overall OHL level.

Anxiety disorder is a major symptom of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) with a comorbidity rate of ~40%. However, the neural mechanisms of the emergence of anxiety in ASD remain unclear. In our study, we found that hyperactivity of basolateral amygdala (BLA) pyramidal neurons (PNs) in Shank3 InsG3680 knock-in (InsG3680^+/+) mice is involved in the development of anxiety. Electrophysiological results also showed increased excitatory input and decreased inhibitory input in BLA PNs. Chemogenetic inhibition of the excitability of PNs in the BLA rescued the anxiety phenotype of InsG3680^+/+ mice. Further study found that the diminished control of the BLA by medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and optogenetic activation of the mPFC-BLA pathway also had a rescue effect, which increased the feedforward inhibition of the BLA. Taken together, our results suggest that hyperactivity of the BLA and alteration of the mPFC-BLA circuitry are involved in anxiety in InsG3680^+/+ mice.

Objective To explore the application value of distortion product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) and speech in noise(SIN) testing in occupational health surveillance of noise-exposed workers. Methods A total of 220 noise-exposed workers was selected as the study subjects using the convenient sampling method. The study subjects participated questionnaire survey, personal noise exposure assessment, acoustic immittance testing, pure tone audiometry (PTA), DPOAE and SIN testing. According to PTA results, workers were enrolled into a high-frequency hearing loss (HFHL) group and a non-HFHL group. Results The detection rate of HFHL among the study subjects was 41.4%, and the detection rate of speech-frequency hearing loss was 15.9%. Workers′ bilateral DPOAE response amplitudes and signal-to-noise ratios at frequencies of 2.0-8.0 kHz in the HFHL group were lower than those in the non-HFHL group (all P<0.05). The DPOAE amplitudes at frequencies of 1.0-8.0 kHz in both ears of the study subjects were negatively correlated with the PTA threshold (all P<0.01), and were negatively correlated with age (all P<0.01). The signal-to-noise ratio loss score was higher among worker in the HFHL group than in the non-HFHL group (P<0.01) and was positively correlated with PTA thresholds (P<0.05). Conclusion DPOAE and SIN testing can detect early cochlear outer hair cell impairment and reduction of noise-related speech recognition ability in noise-exposed workers and may serve as an effective supplementary tool to routine PTA in occupational hearing surveillance.

Objective To analyze the effect of night-shift work, anxiety and their interaction on work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) among electronics manufacturing employees. Methods A total of 2 676 employees from 58 electronic manufacturing enterprises in the Pearl River Delta region of Guangdong Province were selected as the research subjects using the judgment sampling method. The Basic Situation Survey Scale, Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item Scale and Questionnaire of Musculoskeletal Disorders were used to assess night-shift work, anxiety and the prevalence of WMSDs in employees. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the effects of night-shift work, anxiety and their combined effects on the risk of WMSDs. Results The proportion of night-shift work was 30.3%, and the detection rates of anxiety and WMSDs were 26.8% and 41.3%, respectively. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that night-shift work and anxiety were independent risk factors of WMSDs in the research subjects, after excluding the influence of confounding factors such as age, marital status, enterprise size and length of service [odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were 1.307 (1.092-1.564) and 3.282 (2.739-3.934), respectively, both P<0.01]. Compared with those without night-shift work or anxiety, the risk of WMSDs was higher in individuals with only night-shift work, only anxiety, or both night-shift work and anxiety [OR and 95%CI were 1.347 (1.091-1.663), 3.395 (2.727-4.227) and 4.117 (3.072-5.519), respectively, all P<0.01]. Conclusion Both night-shift work and anxiety can increase the risk of WMSDs among electronic manufacturing employees, and these two factors exhibit a synergistic effect in increasing the risk of WMSDs.

Background::The conversion of adenosine (A) to inosine (I) through deamination is the prevailing form of RNA editing, impacting numerous nuclear and cytoplasmic transcripts across various eukaryotic species. Millions of high-confidence RNA editing sites have been identified and integrated into various RNA databases, providing a convenient platform for the rapid identification of key drivers of cancer and potential therapeutic targets. However, the available database for integration of RNA editing in hematopoietic cells and hematopoietic malignancies is still lacking.Methods::We downloaded RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data of 29 leukemia patients and 19 healthy donors from National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, and RNA-seq data of 12 mouse hematopoietic cell populations obtained from our previous research were also used. We performed sequence alignment, identified RNA editing sites, and obtained characteristic editing sites related to normal hematopoietic development and abnormal editing sites associated with hematologic diseases.Results::We established a new database, "REDH", represents RNA editome in hematopoietic differentiation and malignancy. REDH is a curated database of associations between RNA editome and hematopoiesis. REDH integrates 30,796 editing sites from 12 murine adult hematopoietic cell populations and systematically characterizes more than 400,000 edited events in malignant hematopoietic samples from 48 cohorts (human). Through the Differentiation, Disease, Enrichment, and knowledge modules, each A-to-I editing site is systematically integrated, including its distribution throughout the genome, its clinical information (human sample), and functional editing sites under physiological and pathological conditions. Furthermore, REDH compares the similarities and differences of editing sites between different hematologic malignancies and healthy control.Conclusions::REDH is accessible at http://www.redhdatabase.com/. This user-friendly database would aid in understanding the mechanisms of RNA editing in hematopoietic differentiation and malignancies. It provides a set of data related to the maintenance of hematopoietic homeostasis and identifying potential therapeutic targets in malignancies.
