Background In recent years, the increasingly widespread application of nuclear and medical radiation technologies has resulted in a large number of occupational populations exposed to low-dose ionizing radiation (LDIR). At present, there is no consistent conclusion on the effects of long-term exposure to LDIR on the metabolic health of the occupational population. Objective To explore the association between long-term exposure to LDIR and metabolic syndrome (MetS) among medical radiologists. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted to enroll 6431 medical radiologists who ordered occupational health checkups from January 2022 to December 2023, and basic information such as demographic characteristics, occupational characteristics, lifestyles, and dietary habits was collected through questionnaires. Physical examinations were conducted using a standardized protocol. Individual dose equivalents of occupational external exposure were monitored by dosimeters worn by medical radiologists. Logistic regression model was used for identifying influencing factors of MetS and sensitivity analysis, and restricted cubic spline model was used to explore the dose-response relationship between cumulative effective dose and MetS. Two-stage linear regression was used to evaluate threshold effect of association between cumulative effective dose and MetS. Results The positive rate of MetS was 13.6% (877/6431) among the enrolled 6431 study participants. The logistic regression showed that gender, age, monthly income, body mass index (BMI), cumulative effective dose, and smoking were influencing factors for MetS. The risk of MetS was higher in males (OR=1.511, 95%CI: 1.209, 1.888); using the < 30 years old group as reference, the risk of MetS was higher in the 30-39 years old (OR=1.509, 95%CI: 1.095, 2.079), 40-49 years old (OR=2.214, 95%CI: 1.551, 3.161), and ≥50 years old (OR=3.480, 95%CI: 2.338, 5.181) groups; using the <10000 yuan group as reference, the risk of MetS was lower in the group with a monthly income of 10000-14999 yuan (OR=0.715, 95%CI: 0.582, 0.878); the risk of MetS was higher in the BMI ≥ 24 kg·m⁻² group (OR=7.548, 95%CI: 6.223, 9.156); using the < 0.76 mSv group as reference, the risk of MetS was higher in the cumulative effective dose of 0.76-2.73 mSv group (OR=1.270, 95%CI: 1.017, 1.586); the risk of MetS was higher in the smoking group (OR=1.734, 95%CI: 1.428, 2.107). The results of restricted cubic spline showed that the cumulative effective dose was nonlinearly correlated with MetS (P _{non-linearity}=0.028), with an inflection point of 1.25 mSv. The risk of developing MetS increased by 34.1% for each unit increase in cumulative effective dose up to 1.25 mSv, whereas above 1.25 mSv, the statistical association was not significant. The sensitivity analysis results showed that after excluding the self-reported hypertensive and diabetic patients, the cumulative effective dose 0.76-2.73 mSv group still had an increased risk of developing MetS compared with the < 0.76 mSv group (P < 0.05), and the results were robust. Conclusion Among medical radiologists, male, age, BMI, and smoking are positively correlated with MetS, and monthly income is negatively correlated with MetS; cumulative effective dose is non-linearly correlated with MetS among medical radiologists.

Objective To analyze the current status of dyslipidemia among employees in a petrochemical enterprise and its influencing factors. Methods A total of 1 636 employees from a petrochemical enterprise were selected as the research subjects by the judgment sampling method. Peripheral venous blood was collected from the research subjects to detect total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low- density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in serum. The Effort-Reward Imbalance (ERI) Questionnaire was used to investigate occupational stress in the ERI model. Results The detection rate of dyslipidemia among the research subjects was 52.7%. The detection rates of abnormal total cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL-C, and HDL-C were 35.7%, 31.4%, 24.3%, and 10.0%, respectively. The detection rate of high occupational stress among the research subjects was 26.3%. The result of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risks of dyslipidemia in overweight and obese employees were higher than that of normal body mass [ odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were 2.111 (1.692-2.634) and 2.346 (1.591-3.458), both P<0.01]. The risk of dyslipidemia in lean body mass employees was lower than those with normal body mass [OR (95%CI) was 0.130 (0.030-0.564), P<0.05]. The risk of dyslipidemia in smokers was higher than that in non-smokers [OR (95%CI) was 1.462 (1.124-1.902), P<0.01]. Employees with 20-30 years and ≥ 30 years of service had higher risks of dyslipidemia than those with <10 years of service [OR (95%CI) were 1.411 (1.038-1.919) and 1.869 (1.202-2.906), respectively, both P<0.05]. The risk of dyslipidemia among employees with high effort level of occupational stress in ERI model was higher than those with low effort level [OR (95%CI) was 1.351(1.045-1.745), P<0.05]. Conclusion Dyslipidemia prevalence is relatively high among the petrochemical enterprise employees. Overweight, obesity, smoking, long service years, and occupational stress in ERI model are influencing factors of dyslipidemia. To prevent dyslipidemia, it is necessary to strengthen blood lipid monitoring and lifestyle intervention in personnel with overweight, obesity, smoking, long service years, and occupational stress in ERI model.

Objective To explore the predictive value of cognitive function trend after ACI for the recurrence risk of cerebral infarction.Methods A total of 256 ACI patients admitted to our hospi-tal from January 2021 to December 2023 were enrolled retrospectively.Based on their MoCA score at 3 months after onset,they were assigned into 96 cases of no PSCI,51 cases of improved PSCI,17 cases of delayed PSCI and 92 cases of persistent PSCI.According to the results of MoCA at 2 weeks after onset,they were divided into 133 cases of PSCI group and 123 cases of non-PSCI group.The clinical data of the ACI patients were compared between the two groups,and their cog-nitive function trends were analyzed.Results Advanced age,and larger proportions of female,du-al antiplatelet therapy and PSQI＞5 were observed in the PSCI group than the non-PSCI group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).There were significant differences in the incidences of recurrence and poor prognosis in the ACI patients with different cognitive function trends(P＜0.01).The persistent PSCI was associated with the increased risk of recurrence of cerebral infarction and poor prognosis(P＜0.05).The AUC value of persistent PSCI in predicting the recurrence and poor prognosis of cerebral infarction was 0.703(95％CI:0.631-0.767)and 0.595(95％CI:0.521-0.666),respec-tively.Conclusion Persistent PSCI can be used as a predictor of recurrence of cerebral infarction,and it also increases the risk of cognitive dysfunction in ACI patients.

Objective To deeply analyze the problems of public hospitals in medical service satisfaction,construct a more applicable and explanatory service satisfaction evaluation model,and provide reference for the improvement path of patients'medical service satisfaction.Methods Based on the ESCI model,this paper puts forward a research hypothesis,compiles the"Medical Service Satisfaction Evaluation Scale of Public Hospitals in S City",selects S public hospitals as the research object,and evaluates medical service satisfaction from the perspective of patients.Results At present,the main problems affecting the improvement of patients'satisfaction with medical service management in public hospitals in S city are as follows:it is urgent to improve the diagnosis and treatment technology in terms of hardware quality and optimize the environmental hygiene of public hos-pitals,and it is an urgent task to shorten the waiting time for medical treatment in software quality.The score of medical service satisfaction evaluation of S public hospitals was 3.76,and the satisfaction of patients in S public hospitals with their medical serv-ices was at a moderately low level.Conclusion In view of the above problems,it is recommended to strengthen the construction of key specialties,strengthen the construction of talent team,optimize the medical process,open digital linkage services,and strengthen service management,so as to promote the improvement of patients'satisfaction with medical services.

Patients with metabolic syndrome(MS)are at potential risk for cardiovascular disease and have received increasing public and medical attention.Studies have shown that regular physical exercise can effectively regulate meta-bolic indicators such as blood pressure,blood sugar and blood lipids,and play a positive role in reducing the risk of cardio-vascular disease and improving the prognosis of patients.Exercise intensity has been identified as the most important as-pect in reducing the risk of cardiovascular death and all-cause mortality in exercise intervention.Therefore,the design of exercise prescription which is both scientific and satisfying individual differences has become the focus of research.Most of the current clinical studies are based on the percentage of exercise intensity as the basis for the formulation of standard-ized exercise prescription for MS patients,while the studies on the individualized threshold of exercise intensity based on cardiopulmonary exercise test(CPET)are still few.CPET has shown that individualized exercise prescription can effec-tively reduce body composition index,blood pressure and blood glucose,improve cardiorespiratory function,exercise en-durance and quality of life in MS patients.This paper reviewed the development of individualized exercise programs with different intensification according to threshold indexes in CPET,analyzed the intervention effects and possible mechanisms for MS patients and subgroups,and provided certain reference for the formulation and implementation of personalized exer-cise prescriptions for MS patients,and also provided references for in-depth research on individualized exercise intervention for MS.

Background The thyroid gland is one of the organs sensitive to ionizing radiation, and there are few studies on the effects of long-term exposure to low doses of ionizing radiation on the thyroid gland of radiation workers. Objective To investigate thyroid abnormalities in workers in medical radiology departments in Guangdong Province and to identify potential influencing factors of thyroid abnormalities. Methods A total of 1657 radiation workers from 48 hospitals in Guangdong Province were selected as survey subjects using convenience sampling, and their personal dose monitoring results and health examination information were retrospectively analyzed to determine the factors affecting thyroid abnormalities. Results The M (P₂₅, P₇₅) of thyroid absorbed dose (D_T) was 1.55 (0.65, 3.96) mGy in the 1657 investigated workers. The attribute-specific medians of D_T were 1.29, 1.38, 1.99, and 3.51 mGy for departments of diagnostic radiology, interventional radiology, radiotherapy, and nuclear medicine, respectively; and 1.10, 1.55, and 1.80 mGy for job titles of nurse, technician, and physician, respectively. Differences in D_T by gender, age, years of radiological work, age of radiation exposure onset, occupational category, and job title were statistically significant (Z=−6.35, H=708.52, 918.20, 31.19, 95.64, 39.28, P<0.05). The positive rate of thyroid abnormalities in investigated workers was 46.53% (771/1657). Among them, the positive rate of abnormal thyroid function was 22.87% (379/1657), that of abnormal thyroid morphology was 33.98% (563/1657), and that of thyroid nodule was 26.55% (440/1657). The differences in thyroid abnormality rates by gender, age, years of radiation work, age of radiation exposure onset, D_T, and job title of radiation workers were statistically significant (χ²=51.89, 49.64, 20.54, 18.29, 12.07, 16.16, P<0.05). The differences in abnormal thyroid function positive rate by gender, age of radiation exposure onset, and job title were statistically significant (χ²=26.21, 6.21, 8.32, P<0.05). The differences in the positive rates of abnormal thyroid morphology and nodules were statistically significant by gender, age, years of radiological work, age of radiation exposure onset, D_T, and job title (abnormal thyroid morphology, χ²=40.24, 64.17, 37.63, 15.17, 19.28, 15.05; nodules, χ²=31.41, 77.98, 42.11, 19.16, 21.70, 13.52, P<0.05). The positive rates of thyroid abnormality, thyroid morphology abnormality, and nodules all showed a linear increasing trend with increasing age, years of radiation work, and age of radiation exposure onset (P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis indicated that the factors influencing thyroid abnormalities were female (OR=2.17, 95%CI: 1.72-2.74), increased years of radiological work (OR=1.04, 95%CI: 1.03-1.06), onset of radiation exposure in age groups of 30-34 and ≥35 years (OR=1.63, 95%CI: 1.12-2.37; OR=2.58, 95%CI: 1.74-3.29), and working in department of diagnostic radiology (OR=1.40, 95%CI: 1.07-1.84). Conclusion Long-term exposure to low doses of ionizing radiation has an effect on thyroid abnormalities in medical radiation workers. Among them, being female, physicians, and working in department of diagnostic radiology are at a higher risk of abnormal thyroid function; being female, increased years of radiation work, and radiation exposure onset at age ≥30 years are associated with a higher risk of reporting abnormal thyroid morphology.

According to the current cervical cancer screening strategy and the World Health Orgnization cervical cancer diagnosis/screening guidelines, gene methylation will be included in the new guidelines in the future. However, the value of detecting DNA methylation at specific sites in the clinical specimens during the cervical cancer treatment remains to be discussed. This article summarised the role of DNA methylation in the development of cervical cancer and discusses the potential clinical application of methylation detection in the management of high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) positive female patients. It is believed that methylation test can not only be used for the preliminary classification of hrHPV positive female patients, but also for the secondary triage of female patients with slight cytological abnormalities to determine the high risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 3(CIN3) or cancer. It can also be used for the withdrawal test of women in the screening program to support the management of CIN.
