Objective:To systematically evaluate the effect of overtime work on neck musculoskeletal disorders of occupational population in China.Methods:In August 2023, the literatures on the relationship between overtime work and neck musculoskeletal disorders were searched in China National Knowledge Infrasture (CNKI), WanFang Database, Chinese Science & Technology Journal Database (VIP), China Biomedical Literature Service System (SinoMed) and PubMed. The search scope was Chinese and English literatures published before June 30, 2023. The Quality of literature studies was evaluated using the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) cross-sectional study quality evaluation criteria. The Stata 15.0 software was used to calculate combined OR values, and subgroup analysis and meta regression were used to explore the sources of heterogeneity. Results:A total of 32 literatures were included, all of which were in Chinese, with a total sample size of 36003 people, and the literature quality scores were 5-7 points. Heterogeneity test showed that there was no heterogeneity between the literatures ( I2=20.3%, P=0.156), so fixed effect model was selected to calculate the combined OR value. The combined OR value of overtime work on neck musculoskeletal disorders was 1.51 (95% CI: 1.42-1.60, P<0.001). Subgroup analysis showed that the combined OR of occupational population <35 years old group was higher than that in the ≥35 years old group ( P<0.05). But there were no significant differences in the combined OR values in the subgroups classified by average years of service, male proportion, type of OR values, sample size and industry classification ( P>0.05) . Conclusion:Overtime work is a risk factor for neck musculoskeletal disorders in Chinese occupational population. Working hours should be rationally arranged to reduce the prevalence of neck musculoskeletal disorders.

Objective To monitor the indoor radon concentration of urban residents in Shiyan, China, and to analyze the related influencing factors. Methods From April to July, 2019, RSKS standard detectors were used to measure the indoor radon concentration of 125 households in Shiyan, and the results were analyzed. Results The indoor radon concentration of residents in Shiyan showed a skewed distribution, ranging from 13.8 to 145 Bq/m3, and M (P25,P75) was 38.3 (29.0,62.0) Bq/m3. The estimated annual effective dose of radon and radon daughters from inhalation was 0.52-5.50 mSv, and M (P25,P75) was 1.45 (1.10, 2.36) mSv, which was consistent with literature. Building structure (H = 14.10, P < 0.001), floor (H = 24.41, P < 0.001), and geographical region (H = 8.963, P < 0.05) were influencing factors of indoor radon concentration, and the differences were significant. Conclusion The indoor radon concentration of urban residents in Shiyan is lower than the national standard limit. However, in daily life, it is still necessary to take appropriate measures to reduce the concentration of indoor radon as much as possible.

Objective To study the physical activities for myopia in children. Methods ICF theory and literature research were used to analyze the current status of myopia in children, as well as the related factors, and mechanisms of formation and improvement, and discussed the physical activity for their visual function and overall development. Results Myopia was epidemic and began in low ages. The related factors mainly included focus time, less in physical activities, stress in education and poor vision environment. Myopia happened through the ciliary muscle spasm and synergistic dysfunction. Physical activity played a role like adjustment function training to improve the function of ciliary muscles, and promote the development of vision.Conclusion Development of special physical activities based on the theory of ICF may improve the visual function in children and promote their overall development.

Objective To investigate the developmental characteristics of static visual acuity (SVA) and kinetic visual acuity (KVA) and the correlation between the for children. Methods From April to June, 2018, SVA and KVA of 715 children aged 6 to 10 years in Suzhou were tested with logarithmic visual chart and KVA meter. Results KVA and SVA increased with age within 6 to 9 years old, and decreased then. KVA was higher in boys than in girls (t = 4.604, P < 0.001), but not significantly different for SVA (t = 1.822, P > 0.05). There was a moderate positive correlation between KVA and SVA (r = 0.552, P < 0.01). KVA can predicted SVA (B = 0.617, P < 0.001). Conclusion KVA and SVA develop for children aged 6 to 9, and moderately positive correlate with each other. It means SVA may be improved via training of KVA.

Objective To observe the clinical outcome of modified posterolateral approaches for the treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fractures. Methods From January 2012 to January 2015,13 patients with posterolateral tibial plateau fractures were identified in the Second Hospital of Changzhou Affiliated to Nan?jing Medical University. All the posterolateral fractures were fixated with a plate. The knee function was evaluated at the last follow?up by the Hospital for Special Surgery( HSS) Score,and the occurrence of postoperative compli?cations were observed. Results Thirteen patients were followed up for an average of 14. 4 months,all patients obtained bony union. There were no significant differences regarding the mean HSS score among 3 months, 6 months and 1 year post?operation((71. 6±1. 5) points, (76. 4±1. 6) points, (83. 2±1. 1) points;P=0. 154) . There were no significant differences regarding the tibial plateau angle and posterior slope angle on radiograph?ies of inside and outsideamong immediate,6 and 12 months postoperation((83. 7±1. 7)°,(84. 3±1. 5)°,(85. 1 ±1. 4)°,(85. 4±1. 5)°;(7. 7±1. 5)°,(7. 7±1. 4)°,(7. 7±1. 3)°,(7. 6±1. 8)°;P=0. 223,0. 191). No com?plications associated with the approach were observed and there was no infection,no malunion or fixation failure either. Conclusion In the treatment of posterolateral tibial plateau fractures,the modified posterolateral approa?ches can result in excellent fracture reduction under direct visualization and allow for posterior buttress plating.
