ObjectiveTo explore the current situation of forensic ethics practice and education by designing a questionnaire on forensic ethics， with a view to exploring the path of forensic ethics education construction. MethodsA total of 667 valid questionnaires were collected using the online survey method， basically covering various regions across the country and all sub-specialties of forensic medicine. Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the relevant data. ResultsMost practitioners had relevant ethical reflections in the process of forensic practice. 69.12% of the respondents indicated that they had studied the relevant rules， but approximately half stated that there were no corresponding ethical norms or standard operating manuals. The specific behaviors violating ethics in different units were diverse. 23.04% of the respondents reported that they had encountered unethical behaviors， but only 4.9% of them reported such violations. In terms of forensic ethics education， 87.75% of the respondents believed that there were issues with the current model of forensic ethics education. Meanwhile， the respondents showed a high degree of recognition for receiving forensic ethics education， with 84.15% of respondents expressing willingness to participate in relevant courses. More than half of respondents were willing to participate in forensic ethics education during undergraduate studies， new employee training， and regular post-employment training. ConclusionCurrently， there is a problem of ethical neglect in forensic work in China. Combining ethics courses with professional courses at the practitioner training stage and providing regular training at the practice stage are effective measures to popularize forensic ethics knowledge， enhance ethical awareness， and improve the quality of practice.

Ulcerative colitis （UC）， which is characterized by a complex and multifactorial etiology， remains one of the challenging disorders in the international field of digestive system diseases. In recent years， rectal administration preparations have made rapid progress in UC therapeutic applications. This study systematically reviews the dosage forms， mechanisms of action， and clinical applications of rectally-administered preparations for the treatment of UC. It is found that suppositories are the most commonly used dosage forms for rectal administration. The newer suppositories have the advantages of high bioavailability and good stability. Enemas can retain the drug in the intestine as much as possible to achieve the effects of diluting intestinal toxins， cleansing the bowel， and reducing inflammation. Gels can achieve a drug-sustained-release effect and effectively improve intestinal mucosal damage. The mechanism of action of this type of preparation is mainly to inhibit inflammatory cell infiltration， regulate intestinal microbial homeostasis， and increase the expression of tight-junction proteins， so as to play anti-inflammatory， regulate the intestinal bacterial flora， repair the intestinal mucosa， and other efficacies. The diversity of rectal administration forms provides a wide range of choices for the clinical treatment of UC， such as Mesalazine suppositories， Lianshao enemas， and temperature- sensitive gels loaded with drugs for UC.

BackgroundThe professional self-concept of nurses is a crucial indicator for their personal growth， development and career planning. Previous studies have shown that work stressors during the internship period may lead to a decrease in the level of professional self-concept among nursing students. Given the existing differences in social roles between nursing students and clinical nurses， the influencing factors of professional self-concept in clinical nurses and its relationship with work stressors require further research. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between work stressors and professional self-concept among nurses， so as to provide references for improving the level of professional self-concept of clinical nurses. MethodsFrom December 2022 to February 2023， a stratified random sampling method was employed to select 260 in-service nurses from Mianyang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine as the study subjects. Chinese Nurses Stressor Scale （CNSS） and Professional Self-concept of Nurses Instrument （PSCNI） were used for assessment. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the correlation between CNSS scores and PSCNI scores of nurses. Multiple linear regression analysis was utilized to explore the factors influencing the professional self-concept of nurses. ResultsA total of 238 nurses （91.54%） completed valid questionnaires. PSCNI total score yielded a statistical difference among nurses with different marital statuses （F=8.947， P<0.05）. PSCNI total scores were significantly higher in nurses with emergency medical service experience than those without such experience （t=2.208， P<0.05）， and were significantly lower in nurses with abnormal physical examination findings in the past year than those without abnormal findings （t=-2.584， P<0.05）. Correlation analysis revealed that CNSS total score and subscale scores were negatively correlated with PSCNI total score （r=-0.275~-0.169， P<0.01）. Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that work expectation-related stressors， marital status and emergency medical service experience might be influencing factors of their professional self-concept （β=-0.350， 0.345， 0.183， P<0.01）. ConclusionNurses' work stressors are closely correlated with their professional self-concept， and high levels of stressors related to nurses' expectations may lead to a decrease in their professional self-concept levels. ［Funded by 2021 Research Project of Mianyang Municipal Health Commission （number， 202154）］

Background Thyroid hormones are crucial for development and proper functioning of human physiological systems. Current research on the thyroid mainly focuses on the impacts of lifestyle factors on thyroid dysfunction, while less attention is paid to the factors affecting thyroid hormone levels, especially occupational hazards, which warrants further investigation. Objective To investigate the associations between occupational hazard exposure and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroid hormone levels in male coal mine workers. Methods A cross-sectional study design was adopted. A total of 12564 workers who participated in the occupational health check-ups at the Xishan Coal Electricity (Group) Corporation Occupational Disease Prevention and Control Institute in 2023 and met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected as research subjects. A self-designed electronic questionnaire was used to collect basic information, occupational history, and lifestyle habits of all study subjects. Height, weight, thyroid function test results, and occupational hazard exposure of the study subjects were obtained through occupational health examinations and routine workplace occupational hazard detection records. Generalized linear regression was used to analyze the associations between occupational hazard exposure and the levels of TSH and thyroid hormones. Results The median (P₂₅, P₇₅) levels of triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), and TSH in the included 12564 male coal mine workers were 1.16 (1.03, 1.29) ng·mL⁻¹, 7.70 (6.70, 8.90) μg·dL⁻¹, 3.63 (3.40, 3.84) pg·mL⁻¹, 1.19 (1.08, 1.30) ng·dL⁻¹, and 1.93 (1.36, 2.78) μIU·mL⁻¹, respectively. The overall abnormality rate of thyroid hormones was 2.83%, with the highest rate for subclinical hypothyroidism (1.83%), followed by hyperthyroidism (0.37%), hypothyroidism (0.32%), and subclinical hyperthyroidism (0.31%). After adjustment for confounding factors, the generalized linear regression model showed that long working hours were associated with higher levels of T3 and FT3, with β (95%CI) values of 0.011 (0.003, 0.019) and 0.038 (0.019, 0.057) respectively. Night shift work was linked to increased TSH levels and decreased FT4 levels, with β (95%CI) values of 0.171 (0.016, 0.326) and −0.012 (−0.019, −0.006) respectively. Coal dust exposure was associated with decreased levels of T3 and T4, with β (95%CI) values of −0.022 (−0.037, −0.008) and −0.320 (−0.434, −0.207) respectively. Noise exposure was related to decreased levels of T4 and FT4, with β (95%CI) values of −0.102 (−0.166, −0.038) and −0.020 (−0.027, −0.013) respectively. Conclusion The TSH and thyroid hormone levels of coal miners are mostly within the normal reference ranges, with a low abnormality rate. Long work hours, night shift work, coal dust, and noise are associated with the levels of TSH and thyroid hormone levels in the male miners. Coal companies should reasonably arrange working hours, optimize the night shift scheduling system, and enhance protection against coal dust and noise to promote occupational health and safeguard the physical health of miners.

Objective: To explore the association of health literacy with overweight and obesity among middle school students in Chongqing, so as to provide evidence for obesity prevention and control strategies. Methods: From November to December 2019, a stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 7 851 middle school students from 8 complete middle schools across 4 districts/counties in Chongqing. Participants completed the Adolescent Health Literacy Questionnaire and underwent nutritional status assessments. Chisquare tests and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate associations. Results: The prevalence of overweight and obesity among adolescents was 12.95%. The overall health literacy rate and rates for functional, interactive, and critical health literacy dimensions were 62.01%, 66.02%, 50.07%, and 72.42%, respectively. Significant differences in overweight and obesity prevalence were observed across districts/counties, urban/rural areas, sex, school stages, and onlychild status (χ2=25.93, 3.86, 80.55, 8.80, 6.43, P<0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors, multivariate Logistic regression revealed that middle school students with overall health literacy (OR=0.86, 95%CI=0.75-0.99), interactive health literacy (OR=0.85, 95%CI=0.74-0.97), and critical health literacy (OR=0.84, 95%CI=0.73-0.98) had a lower risk of overweight and obesity (P<0.05). Conclusions Health literacy is inversely associated with overweight and obesity among middle school students. Strengthening health education and improving interactive and critical health literacy may create favorable conditions for adolescent overweight and obesity prevention and control.

Objective: To explore the comorbidity and associated factors of dental caries and overweight/obesity among primary and secondary school students in Guangxi, so as to provide a scientific basis for the development of targeted prevention strategies. Methods: A stratified cluster random sampling method was used to survey 178 700 students from the fourth grade of primary school to the third year of high school in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from September to November 2023, including physical examination, oral screening, and questionnaire survey. Chisquare tests and binary Logistic regression analysis were employed to investigate the related factors of the cooccurrence of dental caries and overweight/obesity among students. Results: The comorbidity rate of dental caries and overweight/obesity was 9.55%, with urban areas (9.95%) higher than rural counties (9.24%), boys (10.54%) higher than girls (8.54%), primary school students (11.49%) higher than senior high school students (8.92%) and junior high school students (8.05%), and nonboarding students (11.44%) higher than boarding students (7.94%), and all differences were statistically significant (χ2=26.07, 207.91, 471.54, 629.14,P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that consuming cereal for breakfast (OR=0.91, 95%CI=0.88-0.94), drinking milk in the past week (OR=0.89, 95%CI=0.83-0.95), meeting sleep standards (OR=0.95, 95%CI=0.91-0.99), and brushing teeth at least once a day (OR=0.82, 95%CI=0.73-0.93) had a lower risk of the comorbidity of dental caries and overweight/obesity. In contrast, drinking beverages in the past week (OR=1.14, 95%CI=1.09-1.20), consuming fried foods in the past week (OR=1.11, 95%CI=1.06-1.17), eating fruit ≥1 time every day (OR=1.06, 95%CI=1.02-1.11), consuming fruit ≥1 type every day (OR=1.07, 95%CI=1.01-1.12), and having fish, poultry, meat, or eggbased breakfasts (OR=1.03, 95%CI=1.05-1.13) had a higher risk of the comorbidity of dental caries and overweight/obesity (P<0.05). Conclusions Dietary habits and lifestyle behaviors are associated with the comorbidity of dental caries and overweight/obesity among primary and secondary school students in Guangxi. Guiding students to form healthy living habits is helpful to preven dental caries and overweight/obesity.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Zhuyuwan in the treatment of hyperlipidemia. MethodsIn this study， hyperlipidemia patients treated in the Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） from September 2022 to December 2023 were randomly assigned into a control group and an observation group. Finally， 162 valid cases were included， encompassing 74 cases in the control group and 88 cases in the observation group. The control group was treated with atorvastatin calcium tablets， and the observation group with atorvastatin calcium tablets + Zhuyuwan extract granules. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. The efficacy in terms of blood lipid level recovery， blood lipid levels， TCM syndrome distribution， efficacy in terms of TCM syndrome， and TCM symptom scores were compared between the two groups as well as between before and after treatment. Liver and kidney functions were monitored for safety assessment. ResultsIn terms of blood lipid level recovery， the total response rate in the observation group was 86.36% （76/88） and that in the control group was 86.49% （64/74）， with no statistically significant difference between the two groups. After treatment， both groups showed declines in levels of triglyceride （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） （P<0.05） and elevations in the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） （P<0.05）. Moreover， the observation group outperformed the control group in recovering the levels of TG， LDL-C， and HDL-C （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In terms of TCM syndrome， hyperlipidemia was mostly caused by phlegm turbidity and obstruction. The total response rate in terms of TCM syndrome in the observation group was 87.30% （55/63）， which was higher than that （63.46%， 33/52） in the control group （χ²=9.102， P<0.01）. After treatment， the scores of total TCM symptoms， primary symptoms， and secondary symptoms decreased in both groups （P<0.05）， and the observation group had lower scores than the control group （P<0.01）. The observation group was superior to the control group in alleviating obesity， chest tightness， and low food intake （P<0.05）. In terms of safety， the level of aminotransferase was slightly elevated in the control group， and no obvious adverse reaction was observed in the observation group， with no statistical significance in the incidence of adverse reactions. ConclusionZhuyuwan combined with atorvastatin can not only recover blood lipid levels and alleviate TCM symptoms but also reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions.
