Objective To analyze the unexamined items and situations in occupational health examinations of radiation workers, and provide a reference for the revision of occupational health examination standards for radiation workers. Methods A total of 29 630 radiation workers who underwent occupational health examinations at The Third People’s Hospital of Henan Province in 2023 were selected, and the non-examination rates were statistically analyzed according to occupation, gender, and age. Results The overall non-examination rate of non-medical radiation workers was significantly lower than that of the medical radiation workers (P<0.05). The non-examination rate of chest X-rays among medical radiation workers was significantly higher than that of non-medical radiation workers (P<0.05), while no significant differences were found in other items (P>0.05). Gender-stratified analysis showed that the non-examination rate of routine urine tests was higher in females than in males in both medical and non-medical radiation workers (P<0.05). Age-stratified analysis revealed no significant differences in non-examination rates among different age groups in non-medical radiation workers (P>0.05), whereas the chest X-ray non-examination rate was relatively high in medical radiation workers under 30 years old (P<0.05). Conclusion Significant differences were observed in the non-examination rates of occupational health examinations among radiation workers based on occupation, gender, and age. The overall non-examination rate was relatively low in non-medical radiation workers.

Current formulation of objective performance criteria （OPC） in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） faces methodological challenges， including poor reporting quality， insufficient standardization of methods， limited comparability of study populations， and inadequate consideration of the genetic and environment particularities of ethnic minority populations. In response to these issues， this paper proposes optimization strategies for setting OPC in TCM， with particular attention to ethnic minority medicine. These include improving methodological techniques and statistical descriptions， ensuring transparency in meta-analyses and data sources； standardizing the estimation of point estimates and confidence intervals， and incorporating multidisciplinary expert consensus for value determination； introducing local real-world data from the same period， especially cohort study evidence， to compensate for the lack of high-quality randomized controlled trial data. Through process transparency and dynamic updating mechanisms， the credibility of OPC method can be enhanced， thereby providing methodological support for strengthening evidence-based research capacity in this field.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of posterior minimally invasive approach in the treatment of posterior wall acetabular fractures. METHODS: The clinical data of 17 patients with posterior wall acetabular fractures treated with posterior minimally invasive approach between March 2019 and June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 14 males and 3 females with an average age of 41 years ranging from 28 to 57 years. The causes of injury were traffic accident in 12 cases and falling from height in 5 cases. There were 3 cases complicated with posterior hip dislocation and 2 cases complicated with sciatic nerve injury. According to AO/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) classification, there were 11 cases of type A1.1 and 6 cases of type A1.2. The time from injury to operation was 5-8 days, with an average of 6.2 days. The incision length, intraoperative blood loss, and operation time were recorded. The quality of posterior wall fracture reduction were evaluated by Matta criteria, and hip function were evaluated by modified Merle d'Aubign-Postel score criteria at 6 months after operation and last follow-up. RESULTS: The operation was successfully completed in 17 cases. The length of incision ranged from 7 to 9 cm, with an average of 8.3 cm, and all incisions healed by first intention. The intraoperative blood loss ranged from 200 to 350 mL, with an average of 281 mL. The operation time ranged from 45 to 70 minutes, with an average of 57 minutes. Two patients had sciatic nerve injury before operation, and the sciatic nerve function recovered completely at 3 months after operation; the other 15 patients had no symptoms of sciatic nerve injury after operation. All the 17 patients were followed up 14-27 months, with an average of 19.5 months. At 1 week after operation, according to the Matta criteria, anatomical reduction was achieved in 12 cases and satisfactory reduction in 5 cases, with a satisfaction rate of 100%. According to the modified Merle d'Aubign-Postel scoring system, the hip function score was 13-18 (mean, 16.1) at 6 months after operation. Among them, 5 cases were excellent, 9 were good, and 3 were fair, with an excellent and good rate of 82.4%. At last follow-up, the hip function score was 7-18 (mean, 13.7), of which 3 cases were excellent, 9 were good, 3 were fair, and 2 were poor, with an excellent and good rate of 70.6%. During the follow-up, there was no infection, failure of internal fixation, and femoral head necrosis, and heterotopic ossification occurred in 2 cases. CONCLUSION The posterior minimally invasive approach has the advantages of less trauma, shorter operation time, less blood loss, without cutting off the external rotator muscle. Exposure through the gluteus medius-piriformis space and piriformis-supercilium space can provide sufficient safe exposure for the posterior wall acetabulum fracture, which is a reliable alternative approach for the posterior acetabular fracture.

Objective To investigate the effect of indigo on inflammatory factors and the aryl hydrocarbon receptor(AhR)/NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3(NLRP3)signaling pathway in lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced keratinocytes(HaCaT cells).Methods An LPS-induced HaCaT cell model was established,and experimental groups were set as follows:blank group,model group,indigo group,AhR agonist(2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin,TCDD)group,AhR inhibitor(CH-223191)group,and indigo+AhR inhibitor group.The Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)assay was used to detect the effects of different concentrations of indigo,TCDD,and CH-223191 on HaCaT cell viability after 24 hours of intervention.Quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR)was employed to measure the mRNA expression levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β),nuclear factor kappa B(NF-κB),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),AhR,cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily A member 1(CYP1A1),NLRP3,Caspase-1,and apoptosis-associated speck-like protein(ASC)in each group.Western Blot analysis was used to assess changes in the cellular localization of AhR protein expression.Results(1)The IC50 of indigo intervention in HaCaT cells was 118.7 μmol·L-1.Treatment with different concentrations of CH-223191 and TCDD for 24 hours had no significant effect on HaCaT cell viability.(2)Compared with the model group,the indigo group showed decreased mRNA expression levels of IL-1β,NF-κB,NLRP3,and Caspase-1(P＜0.05 or P＜0.000 1),while the mRNA expression levels of AhR and CYP1A1 were significantly increased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.000 1).(3)Compared with the blank group,the indigo group reduced cytoplasmic AhR protein expression and increased nuclear AhR protein expression(P＜0.001 or P＜0.000 1).(4)Compared with the model group,both the indigo group and the AhR agonist group significantly increased AhR mRNA expression levels(P＜0.05),while the AhR inhibitor group decreased AhR and CYP1A1 mRNA expression levels(P＜0.05)and increased IL-1β and NLRP3 mRNA expression levels(P＜0.05).(5)Compared with the AhR inhibitor group,the indigo+AhR inhibitor group showed increased mRNA expression levels of AhR and CYP1A1(P＜0.05)and decreased mRNA expression levels of NLRP3,Caspase-1,and IL-1β(P＜0.05).Conclusion Indigo reduces inflammatory factors in LPS-induced HaCaT cells and participates in inhibiting the occurrence and development of psoriasis by activating AhR to negatively regulate the NLRP3 inflammasome.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of serum human β-defensin 2(HBD2)and soluble growth stimulating gene 2(sST2)levels in pediatric refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia.Methods A total of 145 children diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumonia were recruited,and divided into refractory pneumonia group(n=53)and common pneumonia group(n=92)based on whether they had refractory or common pneumonia.General data were compared between the two groups.Ser-um HBD2 and sST2 levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Multi-variate logistic regression analysis was used to identify influencing factors for the occurrence of refracto-ry Mycoplasma pneumonia.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum HBD2 and sST2 levels in refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia.Results The proportion of lung consolidation and pleural effusion in refractory pneumonia group was significantly higher,and the fever time was significantly longer than that in common pneumonia group(P＜0.05).Serum HBD2 and sST2 levels in the refractory pneumonia group were signifi-cantly higher than those in the common pneumonia group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regres-sion analysis indicated that lung consolidation,pleural effusion,high serum HBD2 level and high serum sST2 level were risk factors for pediatric refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia(P＜0.05).The area under the curve and Youden's index for diagnosing pediatric refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia were 0.817 and 0.557 for serum HBD2 level,and 0.841 and 0.607 for serum sST2 level,respec-tively.Combined diagnosis using both markers resulted in an area under the curve of 0.916 and a Youden's index of 0.721.Conclusion The combined detection of serum HBD2 and sST2 levels holds significant diagnostic value for pediatric refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia.

Objective To understand the surveillance situation of poliovirus in Guangzhou from 2011 to 2024, and to further strengthen polio surveillance and ensure the continued maintenance of a polio-free status. Methods An analysis was conducted on the discovery and investigation results of six cases of vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV) detected in Guangzhou. Results A total of 6 VDPV incidents were reported in Guangzhou from 2011 to June 2024, among which 5 incidents were from sewage sample testing in the Liede Sewage Treatment Plant in Guangzhou, all of which were confirmed as VDPV, with 1 for type I, 1 for type II, and 3 for type III. In addition, one confirmed HFMD case was identified as a type VDPV II carrier. No presence of any wild poliovirus (WPV), VDPV cases, or circulating VDPV (cVDPV) was reported. Conclusion Guangzhou City has maintained a high level of vigilance and effectiveness in the monitoring and prevention of polio. Continuously strengthening the construction of the polio monitoring network, optimizing vaccination strategies, and comprehensively improving public health awareness are still the focus of the prevention and control work in the future.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors and action paths of frailty in elderly patients with col-orectal cancer,so as to provide a theoretical clinical intervention.Methods A convenience sampling method was adopted.A total of 254 elderly patients with colorectal cancer who were scheduled for elective surgery in a tertiary A hospital in Shanxi Province from March 2023 to September 2024 were selected as the research subjects.General information questionnaires,Fried frailty phenotype,Perceived Ageism Scale,Multidimensional Assessment Scale of In-teroceptive Awareness Version 2-Chinese,Cancer Patient Self-Management Assessment Scale,and Anderson Symptom Inventory were used for the investigation,and a structural equation model was constructed.Results The incidence of frailty in elderly colorectal cancer patients before surgery is 38.98％.Anderson Symptom Assessment and Per-ceived Ageism were positively correlated with frailty(r=0.534,0.568,P＜0.01),while interoceptive sensitivity and the self-management level were negatively correlated with frailty(r=-0.444,-0.659,P＜0.01).Self-management behavior had only a direct effect on patients' frailty(β=-0.349,P＜0.001),while Anderson Symptom Assessment,perceived age discrimination and interoceptive sensitivity had both direct and indirect effects on patients' frailty(direct effects β=0.235,0.287,-0.220;indirect effects β=0.147,0.090,-0.113;all P＜0.001).Conclusion The incidence of frailty in elderly patients with colorectal cancer before surgery is high.Attention should be paid to patients who are elderly,female and have a low level of education.Medical staff can take targeted measures to enhance patients' interocep-tive concentration and stability,so that patients can better monitor and regulate their bodies and emotions,and im-prove their health-promoting decisions and behaviors.At the same time,attention should also be paid to the prob-lem of age discrimination to create a good medical environment for patients.

Objective To analyze the serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D[25(OH)D]levels and vitamin D nutri-tional status of 0-14 years old children in Hangzhou,and to provide scientific basis for the prevention of vita-min D deficiency.Methods A total of 26 225 healthy children aged 0 to 14 who were tested in Hangzhou Dian Medical Diagnosis Center from January 1,2021 to December 31,2023 were selected as the study objects.The 25(OH)D levels were detected by direct chemiluminescence method,and the 25(OH)D levels and vitamin D nutritional status of children with different genders,ages and seasons were analyzed and compared.Results The level of 25(OH)D in girls was slightly higher than that in boys,and the difference was statisti-cally significant(P＜0.05).With the increase of age,the level of 25(OH)D continued to decline,and the pro-portion of vitamin D deficiency and vitamin D insufficiency gradually increased.The level of 25(OH)D was the highest in children＜3 years old and the lowest in children 10-14 years old.There was statistical significance in the proportion of vitamin D nutritional status between boys and girls aged 10 to 14(P＜0.05).In the four seasons,children's 25(OH)D level is the highest in spring and the lowest in summer.The difference of 25(OH)D level and vitamin D nutritional status in different seasons was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The proportion of vitamin D deficiency and vitamin D insufficiency in winter was higher than that in other seasons,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion The nutritional status of vitamin D in 0-14 year old children in Hangzhou is good,but the importance of vitamin D supplementation for children should not be ignored,and active publicity and education should be carried out to prevent vitamin D deficiency.

Objective:To identify risk factors influencing clinical efficacy of endoscopic resection of small rectal neuroendocrine tumor (NETs).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with rectal NETs ≤10 mm who underwent endoscopic resection from 2013 to 2022. Patients were divided into the endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) group and the endoscopic mucosal resection with ligation (EMRL) group according to the treatment methods. After comparing the baseline data, propensity score matching was performed to compare the rates of R1 resection and adequacy of vertical margin distance.Results:A total of 186 patients were included in this study, with 139 receiving ESD and 47 receiving EMRL. The R1 resection rates were 12.2% (17/139) and 2.1% (1/47) in the ESD and EMRL group, respectively ( χ2=3.027, P=0.082). A significant difference in vertical margin adequacy was observed between the two groups [69.1% (96/139) VS 85.1% (40/47), χ2=4.598, P=0.032]. After propensity score matching, 46 pairs of cases were included, and there were no significant differences in the R1 resection rate [6.5% (3/46) VS 2.2% (1/46), χ2=0.261, P=0.609] and vertical margin adequacy [78.3% (36/46) VS 84.8% (39/46), χ2=0.649, P=0.420] between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses revealed that operator experience and preoperative biopsy were independent risk factors for inadequate margin. Conclusion:Treatment method may not be the key factor affecting the distance of the vertical margin after endoscopic resection, but preoperative biopsy and operator experience have a significant impact on margins. Biopsy before endoscopic resection should be avoided, and less experienced doctors are recommended to use EMRL method for small NETs due to its ease of execution.
