Objective:To investigate the incidence of shoulder work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) among occupational population in China, and to explore their intrinsic association with personal and work-related factors.Methods:In April 2024, 73497 valid questionnaires of the Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Electronic Questionnaire were retrospectively analyzed from June 2018 to December 2023 in 22 provinces and 29 key industries in China, and the general information, occurrence of WMSDs and related risk factors of key occupational populations in different regions in China were collected. By using Chi-square test and confirmatory factor analysis, the relationship between shoulder fatigue and pain in key occupational groups and individual factors, work type, work posture and work organization was discussed, and the internal relationship was analyzed based on structural equation model.Results:Higher incidence of shoulder fatigue and pain were associated with female, lack of physical exercise, uncomfortable working posture and neck leaning forward ( P<0.05). Structural equation model analysis showed that work type, work posture and work organization were strongly correlated ( r=0.58, 0.55). Work organization and work type were strongly correlated with shoulder fatigue ( r=0.65) and moderately correlated with shoulder fatigue ( r=0.21). Shoulder fatigue was moderately associated with shoulder pain ( r=0.40). Individual factors, work type, work posture and shoulder fatigue could directly affect shoulder pain ( OR=0.07, -0.09, 0.17 and 0.40), and work type and work posture could also indirectly affect shoulder pain through shoulder fatigue ( OR=0.08, 0.03). Work organization only indirectly affected shoulder pain through shoulder fatigue ( OR=0.26) . Conclusion:The main influencing factor of shoulder pain is shoulder fatigue, followed by work posture and individual factors. Structural equation model can better reflect the complex relationship between work type, work posture and work organization and shoulder WMSDs. Improving work posture and work organization may be an effective way to control the influence of shoulder fatigue on shoulder pain.

Objective:To explore the structural equation model to explore the levels of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) and various risk factors in the feet and ankle of China's occupational population, providing scientific basis for for preventing WMSDs in feet and ankles.Methods:Data of 73497 national occupational epidemiological cases were selected from June 2018 to December 2023 used the Chinese version of the Electronic Questionnaire on Musculoskeletal Disorders. The adverse ergonomic factors and their source classification standard and confirmatory factor analysis were used to investigate foot and ankle WMSDs and their related risk factors (including individual factors, work organization, work posture, work type, fatigue, etc.) in key occupational groups in China, and structural equation model hypothesis, fitting, verification, and path and intermediary effect analysis were carried out. The model fit evaluation indexes included Chi-square specific degrees of freedom ( χ2/ df), gauge fit index (NFI), Tucker Lewis index (TLI), goodness of Fit index (GFI), adjusted Goodness of Fit index (AGFI) and approximate root mean square error (RMSEA) . Results:A total of 73497 occupational workers were surveyed, with local muscle fatigue and WMSDs incidence rates in the feet and ankles being 17.17% and 12.06%, respectively. The fitting index of the adjusted structural equation model basically meets the standard (GFI=1, AGFI=1, RMESA=0.042, NFI=0.716, TLI=0.663). The top three factors affecting feet and ankle WMSDs are feet and ankle muscle fatigue, work type, and work organization, with standardized path coefficients of 0.221, 0.105, and 0.095, respectively. The top two factors affecting feet and ankle muscle fatigue are work organization and work type, with standardized path coefficients of 0.548 and 0.383, respectively. Feet and ankle muscle fatigue, work type, work organization, and work posture have a direct effect on feet and ankle WMSDs, with effect values of 0.221, 0.105, 0.095, and 0.077, respectively. The organization and type of work can also have indirect effects through feet and ankle muscle fatigue, with effect values of 0.121 and 0.084, respectively.Conclusion:Feet and ankle muscle fatigue has a direct impact on WMSDs, and plays a mediating role between ankle and ankle WMSDs caused by work organization and work type. Feet and ankle muscle fatigue is an important pathway leading to feet and ankle WMSDs. It is recommended that employers and managers detect job fatigue early and take corresponding prevention and intervention measures, which can play a key role in preventing feet and ankle WMSDs.

Objective:To explore the structural relationship between WMSDs in the upper limbs and various risk factors in the occupational population in China, based on a large sample epidemiological survey and structural equation analysis, and to establish a structural equation model, so as to lay a foundation for the prevention and control of such diseases.Methods:The Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Electronic Questionnaire was used to conduct a nationwide survey on the prevalence of WMSDs in the upper extremity. Six factors related to WMSDs in the upper extremity were extracted by the classification standard of adverse ergonomic factors and their source and confirmatory factor analysis, including work organization, work type, upper extremity work posture, individual factors, upper extremity fatigue and upper extremity WMSDs. The structural equation analysis was carried out and the structural equation model was established.Results:The incidence of WMSDs and fatigue in the upper limbs was 24.44% and 43.76%, respectively. The adjusted structural equation model fitting indicators were generally up to the standard (GFI=1.000, AGFI=1.000, RMSEA=0.043, NFI=0.808, TLI=0.784) . The four exogenous latent variables of work organization, work type, upper limb work posture and individual factors were correlated. There was a strong positive correlation between job type and upper limb work posture ( r=0.865) , a moderate positive correlation between work organization and job type and upper limb work posture ( r=0.570, 0.490) , and a weak negative correlation between individual factors and the other three exogenous latent variables. Upper limb work posture and individual factors had direct effects on upper limb WMSDs, and the effect coefficients were 0.10 and 0.06, respectively. Upper limb fatigue played a mediating role between work organization, work type, upper limb work posture and upper limb WMSDs. The effect coefficient was 0.46, and the composition ratios of indirect effects were 100.0%, 100.0%, and 38.3%, respectively. The direct path effect of upper limb work posture, individual factors and upper limb WMSDs was weaker than the mediating path through upper limb fatigue. Conclusion:When carrying out the prevention and control of upper limbWMSDs, it is necessary to comprehensively consider the pathogenesis path of upper limb muscle fatigue and upper limb WMSDs caused by work organization, work type, and upper limb work posture, so as to provide theoretical reference for improving the prevention and control level of such diseases.

Pathological stage distribution included 191 of T a(41.8%),127 of T 1(27.8%),76 of T 2(16.6%),47 of T 3(10.3%),and 16 of T 4(3.5%)patients. The VUC group included 61 patients,comprising 51 males(83.6%)and 10 females(16.4%),with a mean age of(65.8 ± 11.4)years. Tumor characteristics were maximum diameter ≥ 30 mm in 38(62.3%),< 30 mm in 23(37.7%),multiple tumors in 16(26.2%),solitary in 45(73.8%),pedunculated morphology in 11(18.0%)and non-pedunculated in 50(82.0%). Histological grading identified high-grade tumors in 59 patients(96.7%)and low-grade tumors in 2(3.3%). Pathological stage distribution included 3 of T a(4.9%),15 of T 1(24.6%),15 of T 2(24.6%),20 of T 3(32.8%),and 8 of T 4(13.1%)patients. No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in gender,age,or tumor multiplicity( P > 0.05). Statistically significant differences were found in pathological grade,pathological stage,maximum tumor diameter,and pedunculated morphology( P < 0.05). Furthermore,an external validation cohort of 278 bladder cancer patients treated between February 2023 and February 2024 from multiple centers(Jiangsu Provincial People’s Hospital,The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University,Union Hospital Tongji Medical College Huazhong University of Science and Technology,Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine,Suzhou Municipal Hospital,Huaian First People’s Hospital,Yixing People’s Hospital)was retrospectively analyzed to externally validate the performance of VI-RADS scoring in predicting muscle invasion of VUC. This cohort included a PUC subgroup of 241 patients,comprising 196 males(81.3%)and 45 females(18.7%),with a mean age of(68.0 ± 10.7)years. Tumor characteristics were maximum diameter ≥ 30 mm in 85(35.3%),< 30 mm in 156(64.7%),multiple tumors in 65(27.0%),solitary in 176(73.0%),pedunculated morphology in 76(31.5%)and non-pedunculated in 165(68.5%). Histological grading identified high-grade tumors in 175 patients(72.6%)and low-grade tumors in 66(27.4%). Pathological staging comprised 107 patients of T a(44.4%),78 of T 1(32.4%),22 of T 2(9.1%),22 of T 3(9.1%),and 12 of T 4(5.0%). The VUC subgroup consisted of 37 patients,comprising 29 males(78.4%)and 8 females(21.6%),with a mean age of(70.5 ± 9.5)years. Tumor characteristics were maximum diameter ≥ 30 mm in 23(62.2%),< 30 mm in 14(37.8%),multiple tumors in 9(24.3%),solitary in 28(75.7%),pedunculated morphology in 7(18.9%)and non-pedunculated in 30(81.1%). Histological grading identified high-grade tumors in 36 patients(97.3%)and low-grade tumors in 1(2.7%). Pathological staging comprised 1 patient of T a(2.7%),9 of T 1(24.3%),7 of T 2(18.9%),19 of T 3(51.4%),and 1 of T 4(2.7%). In this validation cohort,no significant differences were found in gender,age,tumor multiplicity,or pedunculated morphology between the PUC and VUC subgroups( P > 0.05). Significant differences were observed in pathological grade,pathological stage,and maximum tumor diameter( P < 0.05). Three radiologists independently reviewed and scored the multiparametric MRI(mp-MRI)in a blinded manner. Inter-reader agreement was assessed using the weighted kappa statistic. Differences in variables between the two groups were compared using t-tests,chi-square tests,or Fisher’s exact test. The diagnostic performance of VI-RADS for muscle invasion in VUC and PUC was comprehensively evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,the area under the curve(AUC),and cut-off values determined by the Youden’s index. The DeLong test was used to assess whether the diagnostic performance of VI-RADS differed between VUC and PUC. Results:In the retrospective single-center cohort,the AUC of VI-RADS for assessing muscle invasion was 0.895(95% CI 0.864?0.922)in the PUC group,with a cut-off value of > 3,and the AUC was 0.896(95% CI 0.791-0.960)in the VUC group,with a cut-off value of > 3. The difference between the two groups was not statistically significant( P = 0.986). Using a VI-RADS score > 3 as the cut-off value,the accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value(PPV),and negative predictive value(NPV)for diagnosing muscle invasion status in the PUC group were 85.8%(392/457),70.5%(98/139),92.5%(294/318),80.3%(98/122),and 87.8%(294/335),respectively. The corresponding values for the VUC group were 82.0%(50/61),76.7%(33/43),94.4%(17/18),97.1%(33/34),and 63.0%(17/27).In the retrospective multicenter cohort,the AUC of VI-RADS for assessing muscle invasion was 0.891(95% CI 0.845?0.927)in the PUC group,with a cut-off value of > 2,and the AUC was 0.898(95% CI 0.754?0.973)in the VUC group,with a cut-off value of > 3. The difference between the two groups was not statistically significant( P = 0.897). Using a VI-RADS score > 3 as the cut-off value,the accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,PPV,and NPV for diagnosing muscle invasion status in the PUC group were 85.9%(207/241),58.9%(33/56),94.1%(174/185),75.0%(33/44),and 88.3%(174/197),respectively. The corresponding values for the VUC group were 81.1%(30/37),77.8%(21/27),90.0%(9/10),95.5%(21/22),and 60.0%(9/15).In the single-center cohort,the Kappa values for inter-reader agreement in assessing muscle invasion status using VI-RADS were 0.881( P < 0.01)for the PUC group and 0.941( P < 0.01)for the VUC group among the three readers. In the multicenter cohort,the Kappa values were 0.858( P < 0.01)for the PUC group and 0.838( P < 0.01)for the VUC group. Conclusions:VI-RADS demonstrates similarly high diagnostic performance for assessing muscle invasion in both PUC and VUC,which is applicable for diagnosing muscle invasion status in VUC,and shows good inter-reader agreement.

Aim To investigate the expression levels of cytoplasmic FMR1-interacting protein-1(CYFIP1)in colorectal cancer and assess the impact of CYFIP1 interaction on the proliferation and apoptosis of colorec-tal cancer cell HT29,along with its potential mecha-nisms.Methods Immunohistochemistry was em-ployed to assess CYFIP1 expression in 32 colorectal cancer tissues and adjacent tissues.Coexpressed genes were identified using the GEPIA2 website to predict potential correlations and binding sites.Following the construction of a siRNA-CYFIP1,alterations in cell proliferation,apoptosis,and levels of apoptosis-related proteins were evaluated through CCK-8 assay,Hoechst 33342/PI double staining assay,and Western blot a-nalysis,respectively.Results The immunohisto-chemical findings revealed a significantly elevated level of CYFIP1 expression in colorectal cancer tissues com-pared to paracancer tissues(P<0.05).The expres-sion of CYFIP1 did not show any correlation with age and gender,but exhibited associations with TNM stage and lymph node metastasis(P<0.05).A conserved TP53 binding site was predicted in the 3kbps DNA re-gion upstream of the CYFIP1 gene using GEPIA2,JASPAR databases,and rVista 2.0 promoter prediction software.Following transfection of HT29 cells with siRNA-CYFIP1,the clonogenesis and proliferation of cells significantly decreased(P<0.05).Additional-ly,the levels of cleaved caspase-3 were elevated,while the expression levels of caspase-3 and Bcl-2 were reduced after transfection with siRNA-CYFIP1(P<0.05),which might be related to the interaction be-tween CYFIP1 and TP53.Conclusions The upregu-lation of CYFIP1 in colorectal cancer is associated with TNM stage and lymph node metastasis.Upon silen-cing,CYFIP1 demonstrates the ability to suppress pro-liferation in HT29 cells and modulate the expression of apoptotic proteins.

Pathological staging comprised 107 patients of T a(44.4%),78 of T 1(32.4%),22 of T 2(9.1%),22 of T 3(9.1%),and 12 of T 4(5.0%). The VUC subgroup consisted of 37 patients,comprising 29 males(78.4%)and 8 females(21.6%),with a mean age of(70.5 ± 9.5)years. Tumor characteristics were maximum diameter ≥ 30 mm in 23(62.2%),< 30 mm in 14(37.8%),multiple tumors in 9(24.3%),solitary in 28(75.7%),pedunculated morphology in 7(18.9%)and non-pedunculated in 30(81.1%). Histological grading identified high-grade tumors in 36 patients(97.3%)and low-grade tumors in 1(2.7%). Pathological staging comprised 1 patient of T a(2.7%),9 of T 1(24.3%),7 of T 2(18.9%),19 of T 3(51.4%),and 1 of T 4(2.7%). In this validation cohort,no significant differences were found in gender,age,tumor multiplicity,or pedunculated morphology between the PUC and VUC subgroups( P > 0.05). Significant differences were observed in pathological grade,pathological stage,and maximum tumor diameter( P < 0.05). Three radiologists independently reviewed and scored the multiparametric MRI(mp-MRI)in a blinded manner. Inter-reader agreement was assessed using the weighted kappa statistic. Differences in variables between the two groups were compared using t-tests,chi-square tests,or Fisher’s exact test. The diagnostic performance of VI-RADS for muscle invasion in VUC and PUC was comprehensively evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,the area under the curve(AUC),and cut-off values determined by the Youden’s index. The DeLong test was used to assess whether the diagnostic performance of VI-RADS differed between VUC and PUC. Results:In the retrospective single-center cohort,the AUC of VI-RADS for assessing muscle invasion was 0.895(95% CI 0.864?0.922)in the PUC group,with a cut-off value of > 3,and the AUC was 0.896(95% CI 0.791-0.960)in the VUC group,with a cut-off value of > 3. The difference between the two groups was not statistically significant( P = 0.986). Using a VI-RADS score > 3 as the cut-off value,the accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value(PPV),and negative predictive value(NPV)for diagnosing muscle invasion status in the PUC group were 85.8%(392/457),70.5%(98/139),92.5%(294/318),80.3%(98/122),and 87.8%(294/335),respectively. The corresponding values for the VUC group were 82.0%(50/61),76.7%(33/43),94.4%(17/18),97.1%(33/34),and 63.0%(17/27).In the retrospective multicenter cohort,the AUC of VI-RADS for assessing muscle invasion was 0.891(95% CI 0.845?0.927)in the PUC group,with a cut-off value of > 2,and the AUC was 0.898(95% CI 0.754?0.973)in the VUC group,with a cut-off value of > 3. The difference between the two groups was not statistically significant( P = 0.897). Using a VI-RADS score > 3 as the cut-off value,the accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,PPV,and NPV for diagnosing muscle invasion status in the PUC group were 85.9%(207/241),58.9%(33/56),94.1%(174/185),75.0%(33/44),and 88.3%(174/197),respectively. The corresponding values for the VUC group were 81.1%(30/37),77.8%(21/27),90.0%(9/10),95.5%(21/22),and 60.0%(9/15).In the single-center cohort,the Kappa values for inter-reader agreement in assessing muscle invasion status using VI-RADS were 0.881( P < 0.01)for the PUC group and 0.941( P < 0.01)for the VUC group among the three readers. In the multicenter cohort,the Kappa values were 0.858( P < 0.01)for the PUC group and 0.838( P < 0.01)for the VUC group. Conclusions:VI-RADS demonstrates similarly high diagnostic performance for assessing muscle invasion in both PUC and VUC,which is applicable for diagnosing muscle invasion status in VUC,and shows good inter-reader agreement.
