Objective To analyze the prevalence and influencing factors of work‑related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) among workers in hypermarkets in a district of Shanghai City. Methods A total of 477 frontline workers from hypermarkets were selected as the study participants using a convenience sampling method. The prevalence of WMSDs during the past year was investigated using the Chinese version of the Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire. Results The prevalence of WMSDs among the participants was 50.3%. The shoulder, neck and lower back were the most affected body regions, with prevalence rates of 20.6%, 18.5% and 14.9%, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that workers who smoked or had quit smoking had a higher risk of WMSDs than non-smokers (P<0.01). Workers who engaged in physical exercise more than three times per month after work had a lower risk of WMSDs than those who did not exercise (P<0.01). Workers in warehouse-style hypermarkets had a lower risk of WMSDs than those in traditional hypermarkets (P<0.01). The risk of WMSDs increased with increasing frequency of heavy load handling among hypermarket workers (all P<0.01). Workers who sometimes performed tasks requiring forceful use of the upper limbs or hands had a higher risk of WMSDs than those who never or rarely performed such tasks (P<0.01). Workers engaged in two-shift schedules and other shift systems had a lower risk of WMSDs than those without shift work (both P<0.05). Conclusion Workers in hypermarkets showed a relatively high prevalence of WMSDs, with the shoulder, neck and lower back being the most frequently affected regions. Smoking/cessation, physical exercise, supermarket type, heavy load handling, and forceful use of the upper limbs or hands were associated with WMSDs. Hypermarkets should implement ergonomic interventions based on job characteristics, optimize work organization, and strengthen occupational health management to reduce the prevalence of WMSDs.

BackgroundPatients with colorectal cancer are frequently comorbid with depression, which severely affects the quality of life and treatment compliance, while compromising the efficacy of anticancer treament and prognosis. Current therapeutic strategies still have notable limitations, particularly the lack of systematic and targeted synergistic regimens that integrate oncological management and anti-depressive intervention. It is of great clinical significance to explore a safe and effective new comprehensive intervention protocol and clarify its underlying mechanism of action. ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness and safety of Shugan Yunpi Decoction in alleviating depressive and anxiety symptoms in colorectal cancer patients with depressive disorder through the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway, in order to provide references for the comprehensive treatment of colorectal cancer and depressive disorder. MethodsThis study was a randomized controlled trial. A total of 106 patients admitted to the Baoding No.1 Hospital of traditional Chinese medicine from November 2023 to July 2025 were enrolled, who met the diagnostic criteria for the Chinese protocol of diagnosis and treatment of colorectal cancer (2023 edition) and the diagnostic criteria for depressive disorder as specified in the Chinese Classification and Diagnostic Criteria of Mental Disease, third edition (CCMD-3). Patients were divided into the study group and the control group using a random number table, with 53 cases in each group. The control group received conventional chemotherapy combined with traditional Chinese medicine five-element music therapy, while the study group received conventional chemotherapy combined with Shugan Yunpi Decoction therapy. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. Depressive and anxiety symptoms were assessed using the Hamilton Depression Scale-17 item(HAMD-17) and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), respectively. Western blot protein immunoblotting was used to detect the expression levels of PI3K, AKT, and pAKT. Real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression levels of PI3K mRNA and AKT mRNA. Adverse reactions were recorded using a self-designed adverse reaction record form. ResultsRepeated measures analysis of variance showed that the time effects (F=139.336, 234.747), group effects (F=43.900, 101.266), and time-group interaction effects (F=13.409, 43.216) for HAMD-17 and HAMA scores in both groups were statistically significant (P<0.01). After 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, the HAMD-17 and HAMA scores in both groups were lower than those before treatment, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). HAMD-17 and HAMA scores in the study group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The time effects (F=571.356, 309.266, 414.492), group effects (F=6.901, 26.361, 39.362), and time-group interaction effects (F=18.592, 19.266, 33.484) for the protein expression levels of PI3K, AKT, and pAKT in both groups were all statistically significant (P<0.01). After 8 weeks of treatment, the protein expression levels of PI3K and pAKT in the study group were lower than those in the control group, while the AKT protein expression level was higher than that in the control group(P<0.01). The time effects (F=338.555, 225.059), group effects (F=5.429, 9.726), and time-group interaction effects (F=12.953, 21.214) for PI3K mRNA and AKT mRNA expression levels in two groups were all statistically significant (P<0.01). After 8 weeks of treatment, the expression levels of PI3K mRNA and AKT mRNA in the study group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the study group was lower than that in the control group (χ2=4.810, P<0.05). ConclusionShugan Yunpi Decoction may help to ameliorate depressive and anxiety symptoms in colorectal cancer patients with depressive disorder by regulating the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway, decreasing the levels of PI3K, pAKT, PI3K mRNA, and AKT mRNA, with a favorable safety profile.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of drug-eluting beads transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE)combined with Apatinib Mesylate and Camrelizumab in the treatment of older patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and portal vein tumor thrombus(PVTT).Methods:A total of 80 older patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and PVTT, admitted to the Second People's Hospital of Pinghu City from January 2020 to December 2023, were selected as the study subjects.Among them, 40 patients receiving DEB-TACE combined with Apatinib Mesylate and Camrelizumab constituted the experimental group, while the other 40 patients receiving Apatinib Mesylate combined with Camrelizumab formed the control group.The response evaluation criteria in solid tumors(RECIST)were employed to assess the clinical efficacy of both groups.Overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)were compared, and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to analyze the influencing factors of OS in patients.Results:The objective response rate(ORR)and disease control rate(DCR)of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group[60.0%(24/40) vs.32.5%(13/40), 80.0%(32/40) vs.50.0%(20/40), χ2=6.085, 0.013, P=0.013, 0.004]. The median OS and PFS of the experimental group were significantly greater than those of the control group(18.3 months vs.12.2 months, Log-rank χ2=6.470, P=0.011; 8.2 months vs.5.7 months, Log-rank χ2=11.106, P=0.001). Multivariate Cox proportional regression analysis indicated that ALBI grade( HR=1.356, 95% CI: 1.159-1.588, P=0.006), extrhepatic metastasis( HR=1.133, 95% CI: 1.015-1.265, P=0.009), and DEB-TACE( HR=1.921, 95% CI: 1.293-2.854, P=0.001)were independent prognostic factors in older patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and PVTT. Conclusions:The combination of DEB-TACE, Apatinib Mesylate, and Camrelizumab in the treatment of older patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and PVTT can significantly enhance clinical efficacy and extend patient survival.
