Objective:
To investigate the status of heat illness, knowledge awareness and adaptive behaviors of heat wave knowledge among food delivery riders, so as to provide a basis for optimizing heat wave response measures for food delivery riders.
Methods:
In November 2022, food delivery riders from a large food delivery platform in Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province were selected as survey subjects using a cluster sampling method. A self-designed electronic questionnaire was used to select demographic information, work status, lifestyle behaviors and disease history, heat illness status, knowledge awareness and adaptive behaviors of heatwave.
Results:
A total of 911 questionnaires were distributed, and 830 valid questionnaires were recovered, resulting in a valid response rate of 91.11%. Among the respondents, 796 (95.90%) were male, and 818 (98.55%) worked full-time. The mean age was (27.75±8.00) years. A total of 470 respondents (56.63%) had a work tenure of less than 1 year. The primary working hours were 8-<12 hours, with 504 people accounting for 60.72%. There were 108 cases of heatstroke, with an occurrence rate of 13.01%. And 286 people reported heat-related symptoms, with an occurrence rate of 34.46%. The overall awareness rate of heat wave knowledge was 73.22%, while the awareness rate of heat warning signal classification was relatively low at 9.04%. The heat wave cognition score was (5.86±1.31) points. There were statistically significant differences in heat wave cognition scores among food delivery riders of different ages, educational levels, family annual income, work tenures, and work durations (all P<0.05). Regarding positive adaptive behaviors, the number of riders paying attention to weather forecasts and actively learning about preventive measures was higher (734 people each, accounting for 88.43%). Regarding negative adaptive behaviors, the number of riders who often drank ice-cold beverages was higher (509 people, accounting for 61.33%). The heat wave adaptive behavior score was (6.88±1.77) points. There were statistically significant differences in adaptive behavior scores among riders with different educational levels, family annual income, work tenures, and smoking frequency (all P<0.05).
Conclusions
The occurrence rates of heatstroke and heat-related symptoms among food delivery riders are relatively high. The knowledge awareness and adaptive behaviors regarding heat wave are at a moderate level. It is suggested to strengthen health education, reinforce risk cognition of heat wave, and promote positive adaptive behaviors among food delivery riders.

Objective:
To investigate the effects of polydatin on a high-fat diet-induced non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) mouse model and hepatoma G2(HepG2) cell model, and to reveal its potential molecular mechanisms.
Methods:
Thirty 6-week-old male SPF C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a normal diet group and a high-fat diet group. After the NAFLD mouse model was established in the high-fat diet group, they were further divided into a model group and a polydatin treatment group. The polydatin treatment group was administered polydatin by gavage at a dose of 250 mg/(kg·d) for 10 weeks, during which body weight was monitored and oral glucose and insulin tolerance tests were performed. At the end of the experiment, a series of tests to evaluate the effects of polydatin on mouse liver weight, blood lipids, liver lipid accumulation, and liver injury markers were performed. The expression of G0/G1 switch gene 2(G0S2) and adipose triglyceride lipase(ATGL) was measured by qRT-PCR and Western blot, and gene expression was further verified using immunohistochemical staining. The effects of polydatin on HepG2 cell activity was assessed by CCK-8 assay, lipid accumulation was observed by oil red O staining, and the expression of G0S2 and ATGL was detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot.
Results:
Polydatin significantly reduced the body weight, liver weight, and serum and liver tissue levels of aspartate aminotransferase(AST), alanine aminotransferase(ALT), triglyceride(TG), and total cholesterol (TC) in mice (P < 0. 05) , al⁃leviated pathological liver damage , decreased G0S2 expression (P < 0. 05) , and increased ATGL expression (P <0. 05) . At the cellular level , polydatin reduced lipid droplet accumulation , improved lipid metabolism , decreased G0S2 expression ( P < 0. 05 ) , and increased ATGL expression ( P < 0. 05 ) . Even in cells with knockdown of G0S2 , polydatin still promoted fat decomposition (P < 0. 01) .
Conclusion
Polydatin promotes hepatic fat break⁃down by regulating the expression of G0S2 and ATGL , helping to alleviate metabolic disorders and liver damage in the NAFLD mouse model caused by a high⁃fat diet , offering a new strategy for treating NAFLD.

AIM: To investigate the alterations in corneal aberration and relative refractive power following the reduction of back optic zone diameters(BOZD)of orthokeratology lenses.METHODS: Myopic children aged 8-12 years, deemed suitable and willing to wear orthokeratology lenses, were randomly allocated to wear lenses with a 6.0 mm BOZD or a 5.0 mm BOZD. Data collection included changes in higher-order aberrations, relative refractive power and the treatment zone diameter of the two groups after wearing lenses for 1 d, 1 wk, 1, and 3 mo. The correlation of increase in corneal higher-order aberrations with refractive power was analyzed.RESULTS: The increases in total higher-order aberrations, spherical aberrations and coma aberrations varied over time following lens wear(all P<0.001), and there were no statistically significant differences in the changes of total higher-order aberrations and coma aberrations between the two groups of patients(all P>0.05). A significant difference was observed in the increment of spherical aberrations in the 5 mm range between the two groups of patients, which varied over time(Ftime=40.179, Ptime<0.001; Fgroup=11.948, Pgroup=0.001; Finteraction=3.262, Pinteraction=0.03). A significant difference was observed in the increment of spherical aberrations in the 4 mm range between the two patient groups(Ftime=34.462, Ptime<0.001; Fgroup=13.094, Pgroup<0.001; Finteraction=1.372, Pinteraction=0.25). There was no statistically significant distinction in relative refractive power between the two groups(Fgroup=0.048, Pgroup=0.83; Finteraction=1.208, Pinteraction=0.31); however, relative refractive power changed over time(Ftime=40.030, Ptime<0.001). The difference in treatment zone diameter between the two groups was statistically significant, with changes over time(Ftime=11.212, Ptime<0.001; Fgroup=74.073, Pgroup<0.001; Finteraction=0.312, Pinteraction=0.82). The total higher-order aberrations, spherical aberrations, and coma aberrations in 4, 5 and 6 mm range showed a positive correlation with relative refractive power values(all P<0.001). Statistically significant difference was observed in the axial length between the two groups after wearing lenses for 3, 6 and 12 mo(Ftime=185.398, Ptime<0.001; Fgroup=5.618, Pgroup=0.02; Finteraction=2.315, Pinteraction=0.11).CONCLUSION: Orthokeratology lenses leaded to elevated higher-order aberrations. Orthokeratology lenses with smaller BOZD produced significantly greater spherical aberrations at 4 and 5 mm range and smaller treatment zone diameters. The corneal total higher-order aberration was positively correlated with relative refractive power. Wearing orthokeratology lenses with a smaller BOZD can cause slower axial growth and better myopia control.

Objective:
To evaluate the radiation dose, operational standardization, and image quality of computed tomography (CT) Ningbo City Medical Imaging Cloud Platform, so as to provide references for optimizing the quality of CT examinations.
Methods:
Six CT devices were randomly selected from the Ningbo City Medical Imaging Cloud Platform. Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine (DICOM) image data from CT examinations of the head, neck, chest, and abdomen in males aged 36 to 60 years were collected from January 2023 to December 2024. The radiation dose levels were evaluated using the volume CT dose index (CTDIvol) and dose length product (DLP). The coefficient of variation (CV) of CTDIvol and scan length were calculated to assess scan stability. Operational standardization was evaluated using the redundancy rate of scan length and protocol matching degree. Imaging quality was assessed using the signal to noise ratio (SNR) and contrast to noise ratio (CNR).
Results:
A total of 28 897 DICOM images were collected, including 6 730 axial scans of the skull, 2 778 plain scans of the neck, 15 496 plain scans of the chest, and 3 893 plain scans of the abdomen. The typical values of CTDIvol and DLP radiation doses for the head, neck, and chest were all lower than the diagnostic reference levels. The maximum typical values of CTDIvol and DLP for the abdomen were 22.49 mGy and 941.45 mGy·cm, respectively, which were higher than the diagnostic reference levels. The CV values of CTDIvol and scan length ranged from 14.59% to 37.88% and from 8.27% to 44.96%, respectively. The scan stability of head CT was relatively poor, with CV values ranging from 21.74% to 37.88% and from 12.66% to 44.96%, respectively. The redundancy rate of scan length ranged from 6.02% to 74.40%, and the protocol matching degree ranged from 79.80% to 100.00%. The operational standardization of neck CT was relatively poor, with redundancy rates ranging from 45.70% to 74.40% and protocol matching degrees ranging from 79.80% to 95.36%. The mean SNR and mean CNR of the pulmonary arteries in the chest were relatively high, ranging from 15.81 to 17.65 and from 6.33 to 7.41, respectively.
Conclusions
The radiation doses from abdominal CT examinations on some CT devices exceed the diagnostic reference levels. The scan stability of head CT examinations and the operational standardization of neck CT examinations represent weak points in quality control. It is recommended to carry out targeted quality control training to enhance the overall quality level of CT examinations.

Debates persist regarding the efficacy and safety of azvudine, particularly its real-world outcomes. This study involved patients aged ≥60 years who were admitted to 25 hospitals in mainland China with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection between December 1, 2022, and February 28, 2023. Efficacy outcomes were all-cause mortality during hospitalization, the proportion of patients discharged with recovery, time to nucleic acid-negative conversion (T NANC), time to symptom improvement (T SI), and time of hospital stay (T HS). Safety was also assessed. Among the 5884 participants identified, 1999 received azvudine, and 1999 matched controls were included after exclusion and propensity score matching. Azvudine recipients exhibited lower all-cause mortality compared with controls in the overall population (13.3% vs. 17.1%, RR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.67-0.90; P = 0.001) and in the severe subgroup (25.7% vs. 33.7%; RR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.66-0.88; P < 0.001). A higher proportion of patients discharged with recovery, and a shorter T NANC were associated with azvudine recipients, especially in the severe subgroup. The incidence of adverse events in azvudine recipients was comparable to that in the control group (2.3% vs. 1.7%, P = 0.170). In conclusion, azvudine showed efficacy and safety in older patients hospitalized with COVID-19 during the SARS-CoV-2 omicron wave in China.

Objective:To explore the different categories of organizational involution among ICU nurses and its relationship with job burnout, so as to provide a basis for optimizing medical organization management strategies.Methods:From January to February 2025, 318 ICU nurses from four ClassⅢ hospitals in Taizhou City were selected as research subjects using convenience sampling. The General Information Questionnaire, Nursing Burnout Scale, and Organizational Involution Scale were used to conduct the survey. Latent profile analysis was used to identify latent categories of organizational involution among ICU nurses, and one-way analysis of variance was used to explore differences in ICU nurses' job burnout scores across different latent categories of organizational involution. A total of 318 questionnaires were distributed, and 306 valid questionnaires were returned, with a valid return rate of 96.23%.Results:The 306 ICU nurses' organizational involution was divided into three latent categories of low involution-high efficiency group (34.97%, 107/306), moderate involution-systemic consumption group (42.81%, 131/306), and high involution-total imbalance group (22.22%, 68/306). There were statistically significant differences in job burnout scores between different latent categories of organizational involution among ICU nurses ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The overall level of organizational involution among ICU nurses is moderately high, and there is heterogeneity. There is a correlation between organizational involution and job burnout. Nursing managers should optimize organizational management, break the negative cycle of organizational involution and job burnout, and improve nurses' job satisfaction.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of lapatinib combined with chemotherapy for middle and advanced esophageal cancer.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted. A total of 91 patients with middle and advanced esophageal cancer who received treatment in the Fifth People's Hospital of Huai'an from January 2022 to December 2022 were selected. According to the treatment method, all patients were divided into the control group (46 cases receiving carboplatin and albumin paclitaxel chemotherapy) and the observation group (45 cases receiving lapatinib based on chemotherapy regimen of the control group). The clinical efficacy, tumor marker levels, immune function indicators, quality of life, and adverse reactions between the 2 groups were compared.Results:There were no statistically significant differences in the baseline data between the control group and the observation group (all P > 0.05). The objective remission rate [66.67% (30/45) vs. 45.65% (21/46)] and the disease control rate [93.33% (42/45) vs. 76.09% (35/46)] of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.08, P = 0.043; χ2 = 5.20, P = 0.023). After treatment, tumor abnormal protein [(102±9) μm 2vs. (112±10) μm 2], cytokeratin 19 fragment 21-1 [(22.5±2.8) ng/ml vs. (24.2± 3.0) ng/ml], carbohydrate antigen 199 [(127±14) U/ml vs. (145±17) U/ml], tumor specific growth factor [(60±5) U/ml vs. (66±5) U/ml] levels and esophageal cancer patient supplementary scale score [(37±4) points vs. (40±4) points] in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). After treatment, the observation group had a higher proportion of CD3 + cells [(71±6) % vs. (66±5)%)], CD4 +/CD8 + ratio (1.85±0.22 vs. 1.71±0.23), and Karnofsky functional status score [(88±6) points vs. (85±6) points] compared to those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the 2 groups [17.39% (8/46) vs. 26.67% (12/45), χ2 = 1.14, P = 0.285]. Conclusions:Lapatinib combined with carboplatin and albumin paclitaxel chemotherapy regimen for middle and advanced esophageal cancer can effectively improve efficacy and patients' quality of life by enhancing immune function and reducing tumor marker levels. Its medication safety can be ensured.

Objective:To identify the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with hematological disease and neutropenic sepsis in the hematological intensive care unit (HCU).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with hematological disease and sepsis who admitted to HCU, the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from October 2017 to October 2024, to examine the primary therapeutic options, prognosis, cause of death, and infectious features of sepsis.Results:A total of 245 septic patients were included in the study, comprising 88 cases in the neutropenic sepsis group (neutropenic group) and 157 cases in the non-neutropenic sepsis group (non-neutropenic group). Acute leukemia was more prevalent in the neutropenic group [55.68% (49/88) ]. At the time of admission to the HCU, the neutropenic group exhibited unstable vital signs, lower blood cell counts, higher inflammatory markers, elevated Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores, increased creatinine levels (120.00 μmol/L vs 77.10 μmol/L, P<0.01), higher total bilirubin levels (24.70 μmol/L vs 17.90 μmol/L, P<0.01), and significantly elevated B-type natriuretic peptide levels (567.90 ng/L vs 134.50 ng/L, P<0.01) compared with the non-neutropenic group. Furthermore, septic shock was more common in the neutropenic group [53.40% (47/88) vs 36.94% (58/157), P<0.05]. The mortality rate was also higher in the neutropenic group [46.59% (41/88) ] compared with the non-neutropenic group [32.48% (51/157) ] ( P<0.05), with septic shock accounting for the majority of deaths [70.73% (29/41) ]. Infections caused by gram-negative bacteria [55.68% (49/88) vs 36.30% (57/157), P<0.01] and fungi [14.77% (13/88) vs 6.36% (10/157), P<0.05] were more common in the neutropenic group. However, lung infections were significantly less frequent in the neutropenic group ( P<0.01). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed a substantially worse 28-day overall survival rate for the neutropenic group compared with the non-neutropenic group ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:Patients with hematological diseases and neutropenic sepsis presented with more severe clinical conditions, a higher likelihood of organ failure and septic shock, and significantly increased mortality compared with patients with non-neutropenic sepsis.
