As one of the modern enterprise management systems,the Occupational Health and Safety Management System(OHSMS)has garnered increasing attention.The OHSMS has undergone continuous refinement and expansion across various fields,emerging as a pivotal indicator of enterprise competitiveness.Currently,both the Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care(AAALAC)International and the China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment(CNAS)require for establishing occupational health management related to laboratory animal work.However,within the domestic laboratory animal industry,development of OHSMS is relatively lagging behind due to unfamiliarity with laws and regulations and a lack of experienced management personnel.Consequently,the OHSMS in laboratory animal institutions is still in its early stage.Drawing on the authors'practical experience in establishing OHSMS in laboratory animal institutions,this article first outlines domestic and international occupational health laws,regulations,and safety management systems for laboratory animals,as well as common occupational diseases and their associated risk factors in China.Subsequently,this article highlights key elements for the construction of OHSMS in laboratory animal institutions in areas such as establishing occupational health and safety regulations,conducting training,performing occupational health examinations for staff,monitoring on-site occupational hazard factors,implementing the"three simultaneous"system for occupational disease prevention facilities in construction projects,creating and maintaining occupational health records,developing a notification management system for occupational hazards,and formulating emergency response plans for occupational disease hazard accidents.These points are intended as a reference for professionals in the industry.

Establishing occupational health related files is a key component of building an occupational health and safety management system in laboratory animal institutions.These files not only serve as a critical means of protecting the legitimate rights and interests of laboratory animal personnel but also provide institutional safeguards.According to relevant laws and regulations,laboratory animal institutions are responsible for establishing and properly maintaining occupational health surveillance files(also known as occupational hygiene files)for both the institution and its personnel.In accordance with the Occupational Health Archives Management Standards,laboratory animal institutions are required to maintain at least seven categories of occupational health management archive folders:the"three simultaneous"occupational health archives for construction projects;occupational health management folders;occupational health publicity and training folders;folders for monitoring and evaluating occupational disease hazard factors;employer occupational health surveillance folders;individual occupational health surveillance folders for employees;and other relevant folders.Building upon this foundation,the Regulations on the Supervision and Administration of Occupational Health in the Workplaces further specify detailed requirements for occupational health files.These include:documents outlining the responsibility system for occupational disease prevention and control;occupational hygiene management systems and standard operating procedures,lists of types of occupational disease hazard factors in workplaces,their distribution by job distribution,and records of work exposure,basic information on occupational disease prevention and emergency rescue facilities,along with records of their allocation,usage,maintenance,inspection and replacement;records concerning the provision,distribution,maintenance and replacement of personal protective equipment(PPE);and reports on occupational disease hazard incidents;and corresponding emergency response records—amounting to twelve specific requirements in total.In short,occupational health management files are a comprehensive collection of data and documentation related to workers'occupational health.Based on the author's practical experience,this paper outlines the main types of occupational health management files,their basic contents,and key points in their development.It also offers a detailed analysis of how to establish such files,aiming to support laboratory animal institutions in successfully developing occupational health management archives and improving their occupational health and safety management systems.

Occupational health is a discipline dedicated to the identification,assessment,prediction,and control of occupational hazards in the workplace and their potential impacts on health.Its core objective is to ensure the safety of workers through targeted preventive strategies and protective mechanisms,thereby minimizing health risks caused by occupational hazards and promoting physical health,mental well-being,and overall social welfare in the workplace.The"three simultaneities"of occupational health protection facilities in construction projects(hereinafter referred to as"three simultaneities")refers to the principle that occupational disease prevention facilities must be designed,constructed,and put into operation simultaneously with the main project.The implementation of"three simultaneities"involves several stages:a preliminary assessment of occupational disease risks,the design of occupational disease protection facilities in accordance with relevant standards,and ensuring these facilities are constructed in parallel with the primary engineering project to maintain integrity and effectiveness.During the construction phase,occupational disease prevention facilities must be constructed simultaneously with the main project to ensure their integrity and effectiveness.Upon project completion,the construction unit is responsible for evaluating the control effects of occupational disease hazards and conducting the acceptance of occupational disease prevention facilities to ensure the occupational health of employees.The implementation of the"three simultaneities"for occupational disease protection facilities in construction projects is a mandatory national regulation,and non-compliance may result in legal penalties such as fines and forced suspension of work.However,for some laboratory animal institutions,the implementation of the"three simultaneities"remains a challenge.This paper aims to provide practical guidance and feasible implementation strategies for such institutions by introducing the development history of the"three simultaneities"in occupational health,explaining its relevance and necessity in the context of laboratory animal facilities,and outlining step-by-step procedures for compliance and implementation.

Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important pathophysiological role in osteoarthritis and cartilage metabolism. To determine the relationship between NO and the synthesis of type II collagen in cartilage, we measured levels of type II collagen by ELISA and procollagen (II) mRNA by RT-PCR in cultured lapine chondrocytes that were incubated with some kinds of reagents. 0.2mM sodium nitroprusside (SNP, a NO donor) can release high levels of NO, decreasing type II collagen, suppressing the expression of procollagen (II) mRNA (COL2A1).At the same time, chondrocytes showed a large increase in NO synthesis, a decrease in type II collagen and COL2A1 mRNA in response to 100u/ml IL-1. When 1mg/ml N-nitro-L-arginine methyl easter (NAME, an inhibitor of NO synthase) was mixed with IL-1, NO production was inhibited, the amounts of type II collagen recovered partially and COL2A1 mRNA recovered completely.These data indicate NO can inhibit type II collagen synthesis as IL-1 downstream molecule by suppressing procollagen (II) mRNA.

The immune-gold-silver stain and image analysis methods were used to check up estrodial receptor (ER) in rat heart at myocardial infarction (MI) conditions.Animals were divided randomly into four groups: one serves as normal control, another as sham-operation, the third was treated as myocardial infarction and the last one estrogen (E_2) was injected after MI. The results showed that all the parts of the heart have ER,but the distributions are not equal in atrium and ventricle, the former is less than that of the latter (0.1687?0.005, 0.2072?0.006, P

The therapeutic effects of a high fibre diet composed of naturally high fibre foodstuffs containing protein, various essential amino acids and trace elements (Zn, Cr etc.) on diabetics were tested both experimentally and clinically. The high fibre diet or steamed bread (for control) with identical carbohydrate content was taken by normal mice, alloxan diabetic mice and nine healthy volunteers. The high fibre diet caused significant reduction in the blood glucose area (carbohydrate tolerance) as compared with the steamed bread. In another study, eighteen non-insulin dependent diabetic patients (10 females, 8 males) were administered the high fibre diet for 34 days, the average fasting and 2 h postprandial blood glucose level were significantly lower than those before the test, but no difference was observed in blood electrolytes. This implied that no malabsorption occurred during the testing period. At the same time, 16 of the 17 overweight patients were found to have a reduction of weights. In addition, improvement of symptoms (poly-dipsia polyuria, constipation etc) both in diabetic animals and in patients was observed. This study indicates that the high fibre diet is benificial for diabetic patients.
