Background The quality of occupational health technical services is directly linked to the protection of workers' health rights and the efficacy of occupational disease prevention and control. However, the industry still faces critical challenges: sporadic instances of institutional non-compliance and persistent irregularities in professional practice continue to undermine overall service performance. Objective To assess the current quality status of occupational health technical services in Zhejiang Province and propose countermeasures for quality improvement, providing a scientific basis for policy optimization and service delivery quality enhancement. Methods A total of 69 occupational health technical service institutions in Zhejiang Province that obtained formal accreditation as of April 30, 2024, were sampled, including 3 public institutions and 66 private institutions (comprising 3 formerly Class-A, 28 formerly Class-B, 11 formerly Class-C, and 24 newly certified institutions). Following the Technical Protocol for Quality Monitoring of Occupational Health Technical Service in Zhejiang Province and the Technical Protocol for Proficiency Testing of Occupational Health Detection in Zhejiang Province, a quality assessment task force comprising national and provincial experts was established. Evaluation was conducted across four dimensions: qualification maintenance and compliance, standardization of technical services, authenticity of technical services, and proficiency testing, utilizing a combination of document review, on-site inspections, and technical skill assessments. Results The occupational health technical service institutions in Zhejiang Province were predominantly private entities (82.5%), with significant disparities in overall service quality. The pass rates for qualification maintenance and compliance, technical service standardization, technical service authenticity, and the excellence rate for laboratory proficiency testing were 81.5%, 80.7%, 97.3%, and 90.4%, respectively. Regarding qualification maintenance, the pass rates for "environmental conditions" (49.8%, 56.7%) and "instrumentation and equipment" (58.2%、65.6%) were significantly lower for formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions compared to other categories. In terms of technical standardization, "standardized on-site inspections" recorded the lowest pass rate (67.4%), with newly certified institutions at only 48.0%. Regarding technical service authenticity, formerly Class-C institutions exhibited issues such as missing raw chromatograms for blank samples (85.7% pass rate). In laboratory proficiency testing, public and formerly Class-A institutions achieved 100% excellence rates, but the performance of formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions was comparatively weak; specifically, the failure rate for organic analysis in formerly Class-C institutions reached 20%; the failure rate for dust testing items in newly certified institutions was 10.3%. Conclusion The overall quality of occupational health technical services in Zhejiang Province still requires significant improvement, particularly in basic institutional conditions, the standardization of on-site inspections, and laboratory proficiency in organic and dust analysis. Formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions should be the primary focus of quality management efforts. Differentiated regulatory strategies are recommended, alongside strengthening interim and ex-post supervision to gradually enhance the quality of occupational health technical services across all institutions.

Objective:To establish a method for the determination of 2-amino-5-chloro-N, 3-dimethylbenzamide in blood by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS) .Methods:In October 2022, 200 μl of blood samples were taken and 800 μl of acetonitrile was added. The samples were centrifuged at 3500 r/min (with a centrifugation radius of 6.6 cm) for 15 minutes. The supernatant was detected in the positive ion target tandem mass spectrometry (Target MS 2) mode and quantified by the external standard method. Methodological validation was also carried out for the established method. Results:The working curve of 2-amino-5-chloro-N, 3-dimethylbenzamide showed good linearity in the concentration range of 2.07-165.44 μg/L, with a correlation coefficient ( r) of 0.9994. The intra-day and inter-day relative standard deviations ( RSD) for the detection of 2-amino-5-chloro-N, 3-dimethylbenzamide were 2.6%-3.0% and 3.1%-3.5%, respectively. Analytical accuracy of 2-amino-5-chloro-N, 3-dimethylbenzamide quantification ranged from 101.0 % to 108.4 %, and the limit of detection and limit of quantification were 0.11 μg/L and 0.36 μg/L, respectively. The blood samples were able to be stored at -20 ℃ for at least 7 days. Conclusion:The UPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS determination method is sensitive, efficient and accurate, and can be used for the determination of 2-amino-5-chloro-N, 3-dimethylbenzamide in blood.

Objective:To investigate the status of sedentary behavior and its influencing factors among inpatients with stable schizophrenia, providing empirical evidence for developing interventions to reduce sedentary behavior.Methods:A cross-sectional survey design was used to prospectively collect clinical data from 166 inpatients with stable schizophrenia (97 males, 69 females, mean age 56.4±8.4 years) hospitalized at the Shanghai Mental Health Center affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from February 2024 to May 2024. Sedentary behavior time was assessed using the Sedentary Behavior Questionnaire (SBQ), daily step count was measured via pedometers, and negative schizophrenic symptoms were evaluated using the Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS). Patients were divided into a non-sedentary behavior group (≥5 000 steps/day, 66 cases) and a sedentary behavior group (<5 000 steps/day, 100 cases). Clinical variables were compared between the two groups, and binary logistic regression was used to identify influencing factors of sedentary behavior.Results:Stable inpatients with schizophrenia exhibited high levels of sedentary behavior, with an average daily sedentary time of (8.03±2.33) hours and a median daily step count of 3 352 (1 258-5 506) steps. Significant differences were observed between sedentary and non-sedentary behavior groups in Age ( t=-2.38),hospitalization duration ( Z=-1.53),blunted affect ( t=-8.37),poverty of thought ( t=-2.45),avolition ( t=-2.45),impoverished interests/social engagement ( t=-2.41),abdominal obesity ( χ2=9.18),and open vs. restricted hospital/wards environment ( χ2=8.88)(all P<0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis identified that hospital/wards environment ( OR=0.314, 95 %CI: 0.125-0.787),hospitalization duration ( OR=1.001, 95 %CI: 1.000-1.001),and the negative symptom of blunted affect ( OR=3.256, 95 %CI: 1.960-5.407)(all P<0.05) were significantly influencing factors for sedentary behavior in patients with stable schizophrenia. Conclusion:Hospitalized patients with stable schizophrenia exhibit high levels of sedentary behavior. Hospital/wards environment and blunted affect are significant factors influencing sedentary behavior.

Objective:To investigate the changes of plasma prothrombin fragment 1+ 2 (F 1+2), tissue factor positive microparticle (TF+ MP) and thrombin antithrombin complex (TAT) level before and after the treatment of low molecular weight heparin combined with reteplase in patients with malignant tumor and lower extremity venous thrombosis. Methods:From July 2016 to October 2019, 64 patients with malignant tumors and lower extremity venous thrombosis in the Third Hospital of Changsha were selected, they were divided into observation group ( n=32) and control group ( n=32) by simple randomization. The control group was treated with low molecular heparin, and the observation group was treated with low molecular heparin combined with reteplase. The efficacy, clinical symptom improvement time, incidence of adverse reactions, difference in lower limb circumference, blood flow velocity, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), plasma F 1+2, TF+ MP, TAT level before and after treatment were compared between the two groups; the correlations of plasma F 1+2, TF+ MP, and TAT level with clinical symptom improvement time, peripheral diameter difference of lower extremity, blood flow velocity, APTT, and PT were analyzed. Results:The total effective rate of the observation group (87.50%) was higher than that of the control group (65.63%) ( P<0.05); The improvement time of clinical symptoms in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group ( P<0.05); After treatment, the peripheral limb diameter difference of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, and the blood flow velocity was higher than that of the control group ( P<0.05); The APTT and PT in the observation group were higher than those in the control group after treatment ( P<0.05); The plasma F 1+2, TF+ MP, and TAT level in the observation group were lower than those in the control group after treatment ( P<0.05); The levels of plasma F 1+2, TF+ MP, and TAT were positively correlated with symptom improvement time and lower limb circumference difference, and negatively correlated with blood flow velocity, APTT, and PT ( P<0.05); There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions (18.75%) between the observation group and the control group (12.50%) during the treatment period ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Plasma F 1+2, TF+ MP, and TAT expression in patients with malignant tumors and venous thrombosis of the lower extremity can be used as biological indicators to evaluate the patient's condition and treatment effect. Low molecular weight heparin combined with reteplase can significantly reduce the plasma F 1+2, TF+ MP and TAT level, promote the improvement of symptoms, effectively reduce the peripheral diameter difference of lower extremity, improve blood flow velocity and coagulation function, and has a significant effect.
