AIM: To predict diabetic retinopathy(DR)progression through macular layer thickness in diabetic patients detected by optical coherence tomography(OCT).METHODS: Retrospective study. The clinical data of 100 cases(200 eyes)of diabetic patients admitted to our hospital from January 2023 to September 2024 were collected. According to the international clinical DR classification, they were divided into the non-diabetic retinopathy(NDR)group with 32 cases(64 eyes), the non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy(NPDR)group with 38 cases(76 eyes), and the proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR)group with 30 cases(60 eyes). At the same time, 49 cases(98 eyes)of healthy controls whose age and gender were matched with those of the diabetic patients were collected as the normal group. All patients underwent OCT examination. The thickness changes of the retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL), ganglion cell layer(GCL), inner plexiform layer(IPL), outer nuclear layer(ONL), photoreceptor cell layer and total retinal thickness(RT)in the subregions of the macular area were compared among the groups. The Eta coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between them and the severity of DR.RESULTS: The thickness of RNFL, GCL, IPL, ONL and photoreceptor cell layer in each sub-region and the average of macular area in the PDR group was significantly lower than that in the NDR and normal groups, while the average RT thickness was significantly higher than that in the NPDR, NDR and normal groups(all P<0.05). The thickness of RNFL(central area, upper inner and outer rings and lower inner and outer rings and average), GCL(upper inner and outer rings and lower inner and outer rings and average), IPL(upper inner ring), ONL(central, upper inner ring and lower inner ring)and photoreceptor cell layer(upper inner and outer rings and lower inner and outer rings and average)in macular area of the PDR group was significantly thicker than that in the NPDR group(all P<0.05). The thickness of RNFL, GCL, IPL, ONL and photoreceptor cell layer in each sub-region and the average of macular area in the NPDR group was significantly lower than that in the NDR and normal groups, while the average RT thickness was significantly thicker than that in the NDR and normal groups(all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the above indicators between the NDR group and the normal group(all P>0.05). The severity of DR was significantly correlated with the average thickness of RNFL, GCL, IPL, ONL, photoreceptor cell layer and RT in macular area(all P<0.001).CONCLUSION: OCT measurement of the thickness of RNFL, GCL, IPL, ONL, photoreceptor cell layer and RT in the macular area in the diabetic patients can evaluate the progression of DR.

Background Workers in the cable manufacturing industry are exposed to high-speed machinery and equipment for a long time, coupled with heavy workload, which poses significant risks to their physical health. However, the issue of occupational injuries in this industry has not received enough attention yet. Objective To understand the incidence of occupational injury of workers in cable manufacturing industry and to analyze the influencing factors. Method A basic information questionnaire and an occupational injury questionnaire were developed to investigate the occupational injuries of 1 343 workers in a cable manufacturing enterprise in the past year, and a total of 1 225 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective rate of 91.2%. Descriptive statistics were used to characterize the causes, injury locations, injury types, and other characteristics of employees’ occupational injuries. Chi-square test was used to analyze the occupational injury status of groups with different demographic characteristics, occupational characteristics, lifestyles, and interpersonal relationships. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of occupational injuries. Result The incidence of occupational injuries among workers in a cable manufacturing enterprise in the past year was 8.6%, which mainly happened in male workers (80.0%) and occurred from May to July in summer (45.7%). The main causes were mechanical injuries (32.4%) and object blows (27.6%). The main sources of damage were machinery and equipment (36.2%) as well as raw materials and products (15.2%). The main injuries were located in upper limbs (53.3%) and lower limbs (22.9%). The main types of injuries were fractures (33.3%) and abrasions/contusions/puncture wounds (19.0%). The results of univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant variations in the incidence of occupational injuries by gender, overtime, pre-job training, years of service in current position, alcohol consumption, physical exercise per week, and co-worker relationship (P<0.05). The logistic regression model showed that workers who exercised less than twice a week, did not participate in pre-job training, worked overtime, and had fair/poor/very poor colleague relationship had a higher risk of occupational injury, while women had a lower risk of occupational injury. Conclusion The distribution of occupational injury population is mainly male, and the time distribution is mainly from May to July. Gender, physical exercise, pre-job training, overtime, and colleague relationship are the influencing factors of occupational injuries. We should strengthen pre-job training, arrange work hours reasonably, and create a good working atmosphere to reduce the occurrence of occupational injuries.

Background Social psychological factors have emerged as a key area of research in occupational injury prevention. Occupational stress, a significant component of social psychology, has garnered widespread attention due to its potential impact on occupational injury. Objective To analyze the factors influencing occupational stress among cable manufacturing workers and explore the relationship between occupational stress and occupational injury, and to provide scientific evidence for reducing occupational stress and injury. Methods A questionnaire on basic demographics, occupational injury, and occupational stress (Effort-Reward Imbalance, ERI) was used to investigate 1343 workers in a cable enterprise. Chi-square test was employed to analyze the distribution of occupational stress across different worker characteristics. Logistic regression was used to identify factors influencing occupational stress, and a decision tree model was applied to assess the impact of occupational stress on injury risk. Results A total of 1225 valid questionnaires were collected, yielding a response rate of 91.2%. The positive rate of occupational stress was 28.7%, while the incidence of occupational injury in the past year was 8.6%. The results of univariate analysis revealed that workers who had experienced occupational injuries had a higher positive rate of occupational stress compared to those without injuries (P<0.05), and there were significant differences in the distribution of occupational stress by genders, overtime work, shift work, daily working hours, fatigue levels, sleep duration, family relationships, and colleague relationships (P<0.05). The logistic regression results showed that individuals who worked shifts, had fair/poor/very colleague relationships, and frequently worked overtime had a higher risk of occupational stress (P<0.05). The final decision tree model confirmed that occupational stress was a risk factor for occupational injury. Additional factors influencing occupational injury included physical exercise, colleague relationships, pre-job training participation, and gender. Workers who exercised less than twice per week and experienced occupational stress had a significantly higher risk of injury (23.6%) compared to those without occupational stress (10.9%). Conclusion Shift work, colleague relationships, and overtime work are correlated with the positive rate of occupational stress among cable manufacturing workers. Implementing a reasonable work schedule and fostering a positive work environment are recommended. Reducing occupational stress may help lower the risk of occupational injuries in this industry.

Objective::To systematically study the mechanisms by which Yinzhihuang (YZH), a traditional Chinese medicine, ameliorates intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP), a liver disorder associated with significant maternal and fetal complications.Methods::This experimental study was conducted from January 2024 to August 2024, utilizing data from public databases (Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology, GeneCards, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man, DisGeNET, Proteome Xchange) alongside in vitro cell culture experiments. Network pharmacology identified active components of YZH and potential therapeutic targets for ICP. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry characterized YZH oral liquid, and its effective doses were evaluated in taurocholic acid (TCA)-induced HTR-8/SVneo cells, an in vitro ICP model. ICP-related targets were gathered from multiple databases, and hub genes were selected through bioinformatics and previously identified differentially expressed proteins. Functional annotation and pathway enrichment analyses were conducted, with validation in TCA-induced cells treated with various YZH concentrations (0.1%–5.0%) compared to controls. Molecular docking confirmed predicted interactions.Results::Using network pharmacology, 104 active compounds and 241 potential targets of YZH were identified. Integration of multiple databases yielded 1897 YZH-related therapeutic targets and 3783 ICP-associated genes. Proteomic analysis identified 227 differentially expressed proteins, from which 10 hub genes were selected; among these, APOA2, COL1A1, and ADIPOQ were significantly upregulated in ICP samples. UPLC-ESI-MS/MS detected 2022 compounds, predominantly flavonoids (25.07%, 507/2022) and phenolic acids (14.44%, 292/2022). Molecular docking demonstrated strong binding affinities between several active compounds and the hub genes. In TCA-induced HTR-8/SVneo cells, 0.5% YZH treatment significantly enhanced cell viability and modulated hub gene expression, supporting a potential multi-target mechanism.Conclusion::This study systematically explored the active components and potential targets of YZH in ICP through network pharmacology, proteomics, and in vitro validation. The findings suggest that YZH may act via the PPAR signaling pathway by modulating genes such as PPARA, PPARG, ADIPOQ, and APOA2.

Objective To investigate the practical effects of pediatric rapid sequence intubation(RSI)nursing coordination training based on the LSPPDM(learn,see,practice,prove,do,maintain)framework in order to provide evidence for optimizing pediatric RSI nursing training programs.Methods Nurses from the intensive care unit(ICU)of Children's Hospital,Fudan University during Feb 2023 and Jan 2024 were divided into the experimental group(n=35)and the control group(n=35)by block randomization.The experimental group received LSPPDM framework-based training,while the control group underwent conventional training with theoretical lectures and procedural demonstrations.Outcomes included training satisfaction,theoretical knowledge and procedural skill assessment scores,team collaboration compliance and RSI procedure time were compared between the two groups.Results The experimental group demonstrated significantly higher training satisfaction(123.80±2.04 vs.117.26±9.82,P<0.05),superior post-training theoretical knowledge and procedural skills(P<0.05),enhanced team collaboration compliance(P<0.05),and shorter RSI completion time(P<0.05)compared with the control group.Conclusion Pediatric RSI nursing coordination training based on the LSPPDM framework can effectively increase training satisfaction,promote theoretical and procedural skills and reduce completion time in nurses.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the serum red blood cell distribution width(RDW)to albumin(ALB)ratio,the expression of family with sequence similarity 19 member A5(FAM19A5)and leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin 2(LECT2)with the glucose and lipid metabolism indexes in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)patients with metabolic syndrome(MS).Methods A total of 119 patients with T2DM were selected as the study group,and patients were divided into the MS group(67 cases)and the non-MS group(52 cases)based on whether they were complicated with MS.Meanwhile,93 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations in our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group.RDW was detected by an automatic blood cell analyzer,and ALB was detected by an automatic biochemical analyzer.The ratio of RDW to ALB(RAR)was calculated.The serum levels of FAM19A5 and LECT2 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The correlation between serum and glycolipid metabolism indicators was analyzed by Pearson's method.The diagnostic value of serum RAR,FAM19A5 and LECT2 for MS in T2DM patients was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results Compared with the control group,the study group exhibited significantly higher levels of total cholesterol(TC),triacylglycerol(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),fasting blood glucose(FBG),serum RAR,FAM19A5 and LECT2,while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)was significantly lower(P＜0.05).Compared to the non-MS group,body mass index(BMI),duration of T2DM,history of hypertension,blood pressure,waist circumference,TG,fasting insulin(FINS),FBG,glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c),homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance(HOMA-IR),serum RAR,FAM19A5 and LECT2 were significantly increased,and HDL-C was decreased in the MS group(P＜0.05).Serum RAR,FAM19A5 and LECT2 were positively correlated with TG,FINS,FBG,HbA1c and HOMA-IR,and which was negatively correlated with HDL-C(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)for the diagnosis of T2DM patients with MS using RAR,FAM19A5 and LECT2 individually were 0.821,0.807 and 0.793,respectively,and the combined AUC was 0.952,indicating that the combined diagnostic efficacy of RAR,FAM19A5 and LECT2 was superior to their individual efficacies(P＜0.05).Conclusion Serum levels of RAR,FAM19A5 and LECT2 are elevated in T2DM patients with MS.These biomarkers exhibit a strong association with indices of glucose and lipid metabolism.The combination of these three markers has significant clinical diagnostic value for T2DM patients with MS.

Soy is a vital source of plant carbohydrates.However,it poses significant allergenic risks,particularly to young children and animals.Among the various proteins in soy,β-conglycinin,which con-stitutes approximately 30％of total soy carbohydrates,is a primary allergen.Undigested β-conglycinin can lead to intestinal damage by inhibiting cell growth,disrupting the cytoskeleton,and inducing apopto-sis.It can also enter the lymphatic and circulatory systems,triggering allergic reactions.Conventional ELISA methods for detecting β-conglycinin rely on polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies,which are limited by their large molecular weight,difficulty in accessing the protein core,and sensitivity to acidic and bas-ic conditions.To address these limitations,this study aimed to develop nanobodies(Nbs)against β-con-glycinin.Nbs,derived from the variable regions of heavy-chain antibodies found in camelids,have a mo-lecular weight approximately one-tenth that of conventional antibodies.They offer advantages such as small size,stable structure,high specificity,and strong affinity.A female alpacas was immunized five times using β-conglycinin,which showed a heavy chain antibody potency of 1∶16 000 by ELISA.Pe-ripheral blood lymphocytes were subsequently isolated and total RNA was extracted.The variable region of the heavy-chain antibody was amplified via PCR,and recombinant plasmids were constructed and transformed into the E.coli competency strain ER2738.The resulting library contained about 3.5×108 CFU/mL,which increased to 1.15×1012 PFU/mL after phage rescue,with a 100％Nbs gene insertion rate,indicating high diversity.Its Nbs phage output was significantly enriched by four rounds of solid-phase elution with an enrichment rate of 155.9.Four rounds of solid-phase panning yielded 35 positive clones,all of which shared the same amino acid sequence upon sequencing.The selected Nb was ex-pressed in a prokaryotic system,and its binding ability to β-conglycinin was confirmed using Western blotting and ELISA.The results demonstrated excellent specificity and affinity.This research lays the groundwork for developing a rapid and efficient detection method for β-conglycinin using Nbs,potentially enhancing food safety and allergen management.

The study explored the therapeutic effect and mechanism of the compound composed of tangerine peel,plum,agrimony and hawthorn on Eimeria tenella in chicks.In the experiment,144 chicks were divided into six groups:the blank group,the model group,the diclazuril group,and the high-dose,medium-dose and low-dose traditional Chinese medicine compound groups.The 14-day-old chickens were infected,the body weight and mortality were recorded,and the samples were dis-sected at 21 days of age.The anticoccidial effect of Chenpi compound at different doses was evalua-ted by calculating anticoccidial index,feed conversion rate and detecting serum cytokine levels and related mRNA expression levels.The results showed that the anticoccidial index of the middle dose group was 172.86,and the anticoccidial index of the low dose group was 158.98.In the middle and low dose groups,the levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and MDA in serum decreased significantly,while the levels of IL-4,IL10,T-AOC,SOD,CAT and GSH-Px increased significantly,and the mRNA ex-pression levels of related inflammation and antioxidant pathways changed.Further studies found that the medium-dose compound can regulate the ChTLR15/ChMyD88/ChNF-κB/ChNLRP3/Caspase-1 inflammatory signaling pathway,activate the Nrf2/Keap1/HO-1 antioxidant signaling pathway,and enhance the body's anti-inflammatory and antioxidant capacity;at the same time,it can increase the expression of intestinal tight junction ZO-1 and Occludin,repair the damaged in-testinal barrier,and play an anticoccidial role.The results showed that the middle dose of tangerine peel compound had a good effect in the treatment of coccidiosis,and its mechanism involved the regulation of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant pathways.
