Background Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are a major occupational health concern, particularly among workers exposed to adverse ergonomic conditions. Manganese production involves heavy physical demands, yet research on WMSDs among manganese workers remains limited. Objective To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of WMSDs among manganese workers in a manganese enterprise in Guangxi. Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted from May to June 2024 on workers at a manganese factory in Guangxi. The Chinese Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire was used to collect information on demographic characteristics, distribution of musculoskeletal symptoms, and work-related exposures. χ² test was applied to compare differences in positive WMSDs rates across groups, and logistic regression analysis was performed to identify associated factors. Results A total of 1476 workers were enrolled in the study after pre-determined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The overall prevalence of WMSDs was 34.15%. The most commonly affected body regions were the lower back (17.28%), neck (16.67%), and shoulders (13.82%). The results of logistic regression analysis indicated that female, older age, and education level of college or above were associated with a higher risk of WMSDs (P<0.05). Awkward working postures were significantly associated with WMSDs in corresponding body regions; in particular, awkward postures of the neck, upper limbs, trunk, and lower limbs were related to an increased risk of WMSDs in multiple body sites (P<0.05). In addition, poor lighting conditions, high workplace temperature, frequent or sustained arm support during work, and high job demands were associated with an increased risk of overall or site-specific WMSDs (P<0.05). Conclusion The high prevalence of WMSDs among manganese workers is closely associated with demographic characteristics, working postures, and work environment and organizational factors. Targeted ergonomic interventions focusing on high-risk body regions and key ergonomic exposures are warranted to reduce the risk of WMSDs among manganese workers.

ObjectiveTo propose an X-Gait motor rehabilitation assessment system based on a perception-cognition decoupling architecture to jointly achieve high-accuracy gait recognition and clinical interpretability for low clinical credibility and opaque decision-making workflows in existing intelligent gait assessment models. MethodsIn the perception layer, YOLOv11-Pose and PoseFormerV2 were integrated for 2D-to-3D human pose reconstruction. A long short-term memory network was adopted for temporal classification of normal, abnormal and pathological gaits. The layer-wise relevance propagation algorithm was used to identify discriminative joints and automatically quantify biomechanical indices including trunk forward inclination angle, stance phase percentage and stride symmetry. In the cognition layer, rehabilitation-oriented prompt engineering and prior knowledge graphs were combined to drive large language models, converting quantitative biomechanical measurements into clinically reasonable structured reports. Eight subjects were enrolled for bedside clinical validation to evaluate classification performance and clinical consistency. ResultsThe overall gait classification accuracy of X-Gait reached 94.1%. The 2D pose detection achieved 100% valid detection rate with an average confidence of 0.819. The mean per-joint position error of 3D pose reconstruction was 105.97 mm. In clinical validation of eight cases, outputs generated by explainable artificial intelligence combined with large language models showed high consistency with manual assessments from experienced rehabilitation physicians. ConclusionThe proposed X-Gait system based on perception-cognition decoupling realizes high-precision gait identification and clinically interpretable outputs.

Objective:To understand the current status of residents′ cognition of doctor-patient relationship and its influencing factors in a certain area of Guangxi under the background of Healthy China, so as to provide references for building the harmonious doctor-patient relationship.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to conduct an online questionnaire survey among permanent residents in a certain area of Guangxi from June 1 to July 31, 2023. The survey included residents′ sociodemographic characteristics and their perceptions of doctor-patient relationships. A logistic regression model was employed to analyze the influencing factors of residents′ perceptions of doctor-patient relationships.Results:A total of 114 796 residents participated in the survey. Among them, 44.1% (50 593) believed that the current doctor-patient relationship was harmonious, 47.8% (54 874) considered it neutral, and 8.1% (9 329) perceived it as discordant. The multinomial logistic regression model revealed that males, urban residents, older age groups, unmarried individuals, those with higher education levels, and those in poor health were more likely to perceive the doctor-patient relationship as discordant( P<0.05). Residents who valued health-related behaviors and knowledge, as well as those aware of health policies, were more likely to agree that the doctor-patient relationship was harmonious( P<0.05). Conclusions:Over 90% of residents in a certain area of Guangxi perceived the current doctor-patient relationship as either harmonious or neutral. Strengthening health education and enhancing the promotion of health policies can positively contribute to a harmonious doctor-patient relationship.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of a fully autonomous ultrasound robot in splenic ultrasound imaging.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted by enrolling 56 adult volunteers from the Third Medical Center of the Chinese PLA General Hospital between February 1-8，2024 as research subjects.A senior physician sequentially performed splenic ultrasound examinations using both the fully autonomous ultrasound robot and a matched portable ultrasound device. The acquired images were randomly coded and scored via a double-blind method by 3 physicians. The differences of the image quality scores and high-quality image proportions between the two groups were compared. Examination durations were recorded and compared between the two groups.Results:Both modalities successfully acquired splenic images in all 56 volunteers. No statistically significant differences were observed in image quality scores among the 3 physicians：（3.52 ± 1.31）points vs.（3.83 ± 1.23）points，（2.77 ± 1.23）points vs.（3.17 ± 1.17）points，and（3.48 ± 0.97）points vs.（3.79 ± 0.94）points（all P>0.05）. The numbers of images scoring ≥ 3 points showed no significant differences：45（80.36%） vs. 50（89.29%），30（53.57%） vs. 38（67.86%），and 48（85.71%） vs. 52（92.86%）（all P>0.05）. The fully autonomous ultrasound robot required significantly longer examination time［（60.86 ± 50.55）s vs.（7.95 ± 4.35）s， t=6.88， P＜0.01］. Conclusions:The fully autonomous ultrasound robot demonstrates comparable image quality and clinically acceptable image proportions to conventional portable ultrasound in splenic examinations. These findings suggest its potential equivalence to operator-dependent ultrasound for splenic imaging，supporting its feasibility as an alternative ultrasound modality despite longer procedural duration.

Objective:To improve the understanding of recurrent adult Langerhans cell histiocytosis complicated with diabetes insipidus.Methods:The clinical data of 1 patient with recurrent adult Langerhans cell histiocytosis complicated with diabetes insipidus admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Shihezi University in January 2024 was collected. Its disease characteristics, effectiveness and safety of treatment scheme were analyzed, and literatures were reviewed.Results:The 42-year-old female patient was diagnosed as Langerhans cell histiocytosis in June 2021. After treated with cytarabine, the symptoms improved and the patient achieved sustained remission. In January 2024, the patient was admitted to the hospital due to pain in the middle part of the front chest. The PET-CT results indicated disease progression, which was manifested by new bone destruction, enlarged lymph nodes, and increased nocturnal urination, with urine volume of 3-5 L within 24 h. Based on the clinical manifestations such as cranial bone lesions, periorbital soft tissue lesions, and enlarged lymph nodes at onset, multiple systems and multiple foci involvement was considered. The diagnosis of combined diabetes insipidus was confirmed through the water deprivation and pressure test. After MACOP-B regimen (doxorubicin liposome, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, bleomycin, prednisone), the patient's bone pain was completely relieved, and no serious complications occurred.Conclusions:Recurrent adult Langerhans cell histiocytosis complicated with diabetes insipidus is rare; MACOP-B regimen is safe and effective in treatment of the disease.

Objective To explore the application effect of five kinds of sarcopenia assessment scales in the sarcopenia screening in the patients with bone tumors.Methods The convenience sampling method was a-dopted to select 198 patients with bone tumor in this hospital from August 2023 to February 2024 were select-ed as the study subjects.The Simplified Five-Item Scoring Questionnaire(SARC-F),the Modified Simplified Five-Item Scoring Questionnaire(SARC-Calf),the Simplified Five-Item Scoring Questionnaire Combined with Age and BMI(SARC-F+EBM),the Mini Sarcopenia Risk Assessment 7-Item Questionnaire(MSRA-7)and the Mini Sarcopenia Risk Assessment 5-Item Questionnaire(MSRA-5)were used for conducting the screen-ing.The Asian Sarcopenia Working Group-2019(AWGS-2019)screening criteria for sarcopenia were used as diagnostic criteria.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and area under the curve(AUC)were used to analyze the predictive efficiency.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value(PPV),negative predictive value(NPV)and Kappa value were compared among various screening tools.Results According to the AWGS-2019 screening criteria for sarcopenia,there were 144 cases in the non-sarcopenia group and 54 ca-ses in the sarcopenia group,and the incidence rate of sarcopenia was 27.27％.SARC-Calf and MSRA-5 had the highest sensitivity(81.48％).SARC-F+EBM had the highest specificity(91.67％).SARC-F+EBM had the highest PPV(70.00％).SARC-Calf had the highest NPV(91.49％);SARC-F+EBM had the highest AUC(0.890),the corresponding cut-off value was 8.5 points,the sensitivity was 83.30％and specificity was 80.60％.The Kappa values of SARC-F,MSRA-5 and MSRA-7 were 0.206,0.336 and 0.324 respectively,pos-sessing the ordinary consistency,while the Kappa values of SARC-Calf and SARC-F+EBM were 0.544 and 0.474 respectively,possessing the medium consistency.Conclusion SARC-F+EBM could be used as the best screening tool of clinical medical staff for sarcopenia in the patients with bone tumor.

Objective To investigate the effect of body position angle on gastric insufflation during the induction of general anesthesia in pediatric patients undergoing day surgery.Methods A total of 111 children scheduled for elective tracheal intubation under general anesthesia at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from December 2022 to March 2023 were selected as study subjects.Six children were ex-cluded due to unclear sonographic visualization of the gastric antrum,resulting in 105 children ultimately in-cluded in the study.The children were divided into three groups using a random number table method:Group D0(supine position),Group D5(5° head-up position),and Group D10(10° head-up position),with 35 children in each group.The presence of a"comet-tail artifact"on ultrasound was used as the criterion for determining gastric insufflation during anesthesia induction.The gastric antrum cross-sectional area(CSA)of the gastric antrum was measured before mask ventilation after loss of consciousness(T1)and immediately after tracheal intubation following mask ventilation(T2).The incidence of gastric insufflation,changes in CSA and their differences,and vital sign changes at T1 and T2,were compared among the three groups.Results Compared with Group D0,the incidence of gastric insufflation was significantly lower in Groups D5 and D10[25.7％(9/35)vs.20.0％(7/35)vs.54.0％(19/35)],and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Howev-er,there was no significant difference between Group D5 and Group D10(P＞0.05).No significant difference was observed in CSA at T1 among the three groups(P＞0.05).At T2,a statistically significant difference in CSA was found among the three groups(P＜0.05),with Group D10 showing a smaller CSA than Group D0(P＜0.05).The difference in CSA changes was statistically significant among the three groups(P＜0.05),with Groups D5 and D10 exhibiting smaller changes than Group D0,and Group D10 showing a smaller change than Group D5(P＜0.05).No significant differences were observed in mean artery pressure(MAP),heart rate,pulse oxygen saturation(SpO2)and pressure of end-tidal carbon dioxide(PETCO2)at T1 and T2 among the three groups(P＞0.05).A total of 6 children(5.7％)required brief adjustments in jaw support due to irregular PETCO2 waveforms or abnormal peak airway pressure.Conclusion In pediatric patients undergoing day sur-gery under general anesthesia,a 5° head-up position during induction significantly reduces the incidence of gas-tric insufflation and minimizes changes in gastric antral CSA,while a 10° head-up position does not provide ad-ditional benefits.

Chagas disease(American trypanosomiasis)is a zoonosis caused by Trypanosoma cruzi,which severely affects public health.Recently,with changes in economic globalization and increased population mobility,this disease has gradually spread from the original Latin American epidemic areas to non-epidemic areas,such as Europe,thus showing a trend of globalization.The main trans-mission routes have changed from transmission via the Triatomine vector to blood transfusion transmission,mother-to-child transmis-sion,oral transmission,and other routes.Consequently,Chagas disease is spreading globally,and more people are increasingly vul-nerable to infection.This article retrospectively reviews research on the transmission routes of Chagas disease,analyzes the changing trends in transmission routes,and provides a scientific basis for the formulation and optimization of Chagas disease prevention and con-trol strategies from a One Health perspective.

This paper summarizes the progress of theoretical research and practice of One Health in China,and discusses the paradigm of One Health governance to improve the prevention and control of infectious diseases in China and the world,and provide an example for the improvement of the public health system.In particular,China has long history to apply the concept of One Health in the national schistosomiasis control programmes and patriotic health campaigns,which were not only focusing on human health,but also emphasizing the sustainable development of animal health and ecological environment.At the same time,the application of tools such as system dynamics model,eDNA technology,One Health economic assessment and global One Health index(GOHI)in the field of disease control and environmental health provides technical support for the concept of One Health.Despite the challenges of practical application of these tools,the One Health concept will play a greater role in providing sustainable solutions for human-animal-environmental health by strengthening interdisciplinary collaboration,improving standardization protocols and promoting inter-national cooperation.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically evaluate the correlation between phase angle and sarcopenia and its diagnostic indexes.METHODS:The PubMed,EMbase,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,CNKI,WanFang Data,VIP and SinoMed databases were electronically searched to collect studies on the correlation between phase angle and sarcopenia and its diagnostic indexes from database inception to May 8,2024. Two reviewers independently screened literature,extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 14.0 software. RESULTS:A total of 50 eligible articles were included. Meta-analysis results showed that compared with the non-sarcopenic population,the phase angle was significantly reduced in sarcopenic patients[standardized mean difference (SMD)=-0.99,95％ confidence interval (CI) (-1.09,-0.90),P<0.00001]. The results of subgroup analysis indicated that the difference of phase angle was more significant in patients with severe sarcopenia and Asian sarcopenia. Moreover,reduction in the phase angle was more obvious in patients with malignant tumors and respiratory diseases with sarcopenia. And skeletal muscle mass index (Pearson's r=0.565,P<0.00001),grip strength (Pearson's r=0.446,P<0.00001),and gait speed (Pearson's r=0.405,P<0.00001) all showed a moderate positive correlation with phase angle. However,appendicular skeletal muscle mass index showed a very weak positive correlation with phase angle (Pearson's r=0.139,P=0.02). CONCLUSION:Phase angle has a significant difference between sarcopenia and non-sarcopenia population,and it is correlated with the diagnostic indexes of sarcopenia to different extents. It suggests that phase angle has some clinical values in the objective diagnosis of sarcopenia. However,the results may be influenced by some factors such as sarcopenia severity and detection instruments of phase angle. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies,more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
