Objective:To investigate the occurrence of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in bus drivers in Zhuhai City, analyze the ergonomic factors, and explore the prevention and control measures of WMSDs.Methods:From March to May 2023, 1675 active bus drivers from 5 branches of a bus group in Zhuhai were selected by stratified sampling method. The incidence of WMSDs among bus drivers in the past 12 months was investigated by using the modified Chinese Version of Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire. The influencing factors of WMSDs were analyzed by χ2 test and generalized linear model. Results:The total incidence of WMSDs in bus drivers in the past 12 months was 47.2% (790/1675) , and the incidence of WMSDs in neck and shoulder and lower back was 36.9% (618/1675) and 31.7% (531/1675) , respectively. The χ2 test showed that there were statistically significant differences in the incidence of WMSDs among bus drivers with different individual factors such as body mass index (BMI) , physical exercise and looking down at mobile phones ( P<0.05) . There were significant differences in the incidence of WMSDs in the neck and shoulder of bus drivers with different years of service and number of stops on their routes ( P<0.05) . There were statistically significant differences in the incidence of WMSDs in the lower back of bus drivers with different one-way driving time, shift patterns, and rest breaks during work ( P<0.05) . Abnormal BMI, professional working years >12 years, uncomfortable working posture, frequent turning, slightly forward neck posture, large forward neck posture and long shoulder posture were the risk factors for WMSDs of bus drivers ( P<0.05) , and comfortable seat was the protective factor ( P<0.05) . One-way driving time >70 min, shift work schedules, uncomfortable working posture, slightly forward back posture, and frequent turning were the risk factors leading to lower back WMSDs ( P<0.05) , and physical exercise, comfortable driving cabin space, and seat comfort were the protective factors ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:The total incidence of WMSDs in bus drivers is higher, and ergonomic factors are related to the occurrence of WMSDs. In the implementation of bus driving space comfort, human-computer interaction interface friendliness and seat comfort, employers should be reasonable allocation of fitness facilities, regular training, reasonable shift organization and other measures to prevent and control the occurrence of bus drivers WMSDs.

Objectives To detect the expression of serum high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) and explore its changes in rats with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP).Methods Intraperitoneal injection of 20％ L-arginine in the dosage of 250 mg/100 g twice every 1 hour was used to establish ANP rat model.Intraperitoneal injection of normal saline solution in equal volume was performed in control rats.Rats were sacrificed at 6 h,18 h,24 h,36 h,48 h,72 h and 96 h after injection.Blood samples were collected to detect serum amylase and HMGB1 level.Pancreatic tissue was collected for pathological examination.Realtime PCR was applied to detect the mRNA expression of HMGB1 in pancreatic tissue.Werstem blot was used to determine HMGB1 protein expression in pancreatic tissue.Results Serum amylase level began to increase at 6 h after modeling,reached the peak at 18 h [(5 070 ± 603) U/L] and returned to normal level after 48 h.Serum amylase activity at 6 h and 18 h in ANP group was much higher than that in control group (1 844 ± 181)U/L(P＜0.05).The expression of HMGB1 began to increase at 6 h,reached to the peak at 36 h [(288.5 ±42.1)μg/L],and then decreased gradually.HMGB1 expressions at each time point in ANP group were significantly higher than those in control group (31.6 ± 10.1) μg/L],and the differences were statistically significant (all P ＜ 0.05).Pathological scores in pancreatic tissues in ANP group were higher than those in control group 0.38 ± 0.52,and the differences were statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).HMGB1 mRNA expressions at t 6 h,18 h,24 h,36 h,48 h,72 h and 96 h in ANP group were 1.23 ±0.25,2.60 ± 0.46,3.23 ± 0.34,4.77 ± 0.66,2.88 ± 0.56,2.05 ± 0.20,1.33 ± 0.28,which were significantly higher than those in control group 0.44 ± 0.09,and the relative expression of HMGB1 in ANP group at 36 h was significantly higher than those at other time points (all P ＜ 0.05).HMGB1 protein expression in pancreatic tissue in ANP group at 6 h,18 h,36 h,72 h were 1.14 ±0.02,1.15 ±0.01,1.22 ±0.01,1.22 ±0.04,which obviously higher than those in control group(1.0),and HMGB1 expression in ANP group at 36 h was higher than those at other time points (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions HMGB1 may participate in systematic inflammation as one of the late inflammatory mediators during ANP.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Yu’s meridian detection and treatment plus acupuncture in treating facial paralysis.Method Sixty patients with facial paralysis in acute stage were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by Yu’s meridian detection and treatment plus acupuncture, while the control group was by ordinary acupuncture. The House-Brackmann (H-B) scale and symptom-sign scores were observed before and after the treatment.Result The H-B scale scores were changed significantly in the two groups after the treatment (P<0.05). After the treatment, the H-B score of the treatment group was significantly different from that of the control group (P<0.05). The symptom-sign scores were significantly changed in both groups after the treatment (P<0.01). The symptom-sign score of the treatment group was significantly different from that of the control group after the treatment (P<0.05).Conclusion Yu’s meridian detection and treatment plus acupuncture is an effective method in treating facial paralysis.
