Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of single-cigarette use and dual cigarette-cigar use in China.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study that selected 85 638 urban and rural residents who met the inclusion criteria from the 2018 China Health Literacy Survey as research subjects. An analysis was conducted on 21 849 users of cigarettes and cigars among them. Due to the small number of individuals who exclusively used cigars (247 cases), the research subjects were divided into two categories: exclusive cigarette users and dual users of cigarettes and cigars. The groups were categorized by age (18-34 years, 35-54 years, ≥55 years), gender (male, female), education level (primary school and below, junior high school and high school, university and above) and annual household income (<20 000 yuan, 20 000-<80 000 yuan, ≥80 000 yuan) to compare the tobacco usage rate and conduct subgroup analyses for each subgroup. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed, incorporating general demographic characteristic information to explore the influencing factors of exclusive cigarette use and dual use of cigarettes and cigars, respectively.Results:The rate of exclusive cigarette use in our country was 24.3%, while the dual use rate of cigarettes and cigars was 0.9%. The exclusive cigarette use rate and the dual use rate of cigarettes and cigars among males were significantly higher than those among females (48.25% vs 2.48%, and 1.84% vs 0.06%) (both P<0.001). For males, the high-risk factors for exclusive cigarette use included living in urban areas ( OR: 1.37, 95% CI: 1.23-1.54), being Han ethnicity ( OR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.51-1.98), and having an annual household income ≥20 000 yuan ( OR: 1.54, 95% CI: 1.38-1.82) while having a junior high school education or higher was a protective factor ( OR: 0.68, 95% CI: 0.52-0.90). Age≥35 years ( OR: 3.36, 95% CI: 2.62-4.32) and having a junior high school education or higher ( OR: 1.30, 95% CI: 1.02-1.67) were risk factors for dual use of cigarettes and cigars in males. Among females, living in urban areas ( OR: 1.53, 95% CI: 1.19-1.97) and being Han ethnicity ( OR: 5.96, 95% CI: 4.47-7.96) were risk factors for exclusive cigarette use, while having a university education or higher was a protective factor ( OR: 0.28, 95% CI: 0.18-0.42). However, for female dual use of cigarettes and cigars, no significant effects were observed for any demographic characteristics. Conclusions:The use rate of cigarettes alone in China is significantly higher than that of cigarette-cigar dual use, and the rates of cigarette use alone and cigarette-cigar dual use in men are significantly higher than those in women. Tobacco use is being affected by sociodemographic factors, among which place of residence, ethnicity and education level are the main influencing factors of cigarette use alone, and gender, age and education level are the main influencing factors of cigarette-cigar dual use.

Objective To analyze the correlation between venous thromboembolism(VTE)and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)constitution types in elderly frail patients.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 1 428 elderly frail patients admitted to the Second Comprehensive Department of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from January 2019 to June 2023.Patients were divided into a venous thrombsis(VT)group(n=187)and a non-VT group(n=1 241)based on VTE occurrence.Baseline data,including age distribution,Padua scores,Wells scores,and TCM constitution types,were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors for influencing VTE in elderly frail patients.Results(1)Compared with the non-VT group,the VT group had significantly higher total hospitalization costs,length of stay,age,Fried scores,Padua scores,and Wells scores,with statistically significance(P＜0.001).(2)Compared with the non-VT group,the VT group had a higher proportion of high VTE-risk individuals and those with Wells scores of 2 points,with statistically significance(P＜0.001).(3)The age distribution of VTE patients showed an increasing trend in the age groups of 60-69,70-79,80-89,and ≥90-year-old,with a significant difference compared to the non-VT group(P＜0.001).(4)The VT group had a higher proportion of qi-deficiency,blood-stasis,and qi-depression constitutions than the non-VT group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.001).(5)Multivariate logistic regression analysis(after adjusting age,gender,frailty,and other scores)showed that qi-deficiency and yang-deficiency constitutions were non-susceptible,while damp-heat,blood-stasis,and qi-depression constitutions were susceptible to VTE in elderly frail patients(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion VTE in elderly frail patients is significantly correlated with TCM constitution types.Deviated constitutions are characteristic of TCM constitution types in elderly frail patients,and damp-heat,blood-stasis,and qi-depression constitutions are risk factors for VTE in this population.

Background Hypertension is one of the chronic diseases with the highest prevalence in China, and a history of hypertension may potentially exacerbate hearing loss. Investigating the association between long-term blood pressure trends and hearing thresholds could contribute to hearing protection efforts for occupationally noise-exposed populations. Objective By investigating hearing thresholds and blood pressure levels among occupationally noise-exposed workers in an urban rail transit enterprise, and conducting a comprehensive analysis of the association between long-term blood pressure changes and hearing thresholds, to provide data references for health management strategies targeting occupationally noise-exposed workers. Methods Workers exposed to occupational noise at a rail transit enterprise were enrolled as study subjects and underwent pure-tone audiometry. Group-based trajectory modeling was employed to identify blood pressure trajectories. Categorical data were compared using chi-square tests, while normally distributed continuous variables were analyzed via t-tests and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) were subsequently applied toexamine associations between these trajectory groups and high-frequency hearing thresholds. Results Among 2 002 occupationally noise-exposed workers, the median (P₂₅, P₇₅) age was 32 (28, 35) years, with a median (P₂₅, P₇₅) working tenure of 7 (3, 10) years. In 2019, the positive hypertension rate was 9.04%, with a mean systolic blood pressure (SBP) of (122.97±11.60) mmHg and a mean diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of (76.37±9.02) mmHg. The hearing loss prevalence was 10.1%, showing bilateral high-frequency average hearing thresholds of (17.18±8.71) dB and speech-frequency average thresholds of (13.79±3.46) dB. Three distinct trajectory groups were identified for both SBP and DBP. Compared with other trajectory groups, the high-stable DBP group exhibited significantly higher hearing loss prevalence (χ²=6.34, P=0.042) and elevated high-frequency hearing thresholds (all Ps<0.05). Specifically, within the 30-39 age subgroup, the moderate-stable DBP group demonstrated 1.96 dB lower high-frequency thresholds than the high-stable group [β(95%CI): −1.96 (−3.61, −0.32), P=0.020]. Conclusion Among occupationally noise-exposed workers in a municipal rail transit enterprise, DBP trajectories demonstrated a positive association with high-frequency hearing thresholds. Notably, in young and middle-aged occupationally noise-exposed populations, DBP may exert a more critical influence than SBP on the progression of hearing loss.

Senile chronic heart failure(CHF)complicated with sarcopenia can further degrade patients'quality of life,and increase the occurrence of falls,disability and mortality.Currently,western medicine preventive and treatment for sarcopenia mainly depend on nutritional support and exercise therapy,but their efficacy remained uncertain.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)therapy has the advantages of holism and syndrome differentiation and treatment,and its application in senile CHF complicated with sarcopenia is worthy of further exploration.This paper sorted out the relevant statements in the Treatise on Exogenous Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases,and concluded that the clinical manifestations of senile CHF complicated with sarcopenia are similar to those of heart water and consumptive disease in the Treatise on Exogenous Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases.The statements in Treatise on Exogenous Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases will guide the identification of etiology and pathogenesis as well as the diagnosis and treatment for senile CHF complicated with sarcopenia.The analysis of the pathogenesis indicated that heart water and consumptive disease were induced by deficiency of heart and spleen and kidney,five kinds of overstrain and seven types of impairment,water pathogen insulting heart,and internal stagnation of blood stasis.Therefore,it is proposed that the core pathogenesis of senile CHF complicated with sarcopenia is due to the deficiency of heart,spleen and kidney yang,and water blended with blood stasis.The classical prescriptions such as Ling Gui Zhu Gan Tang,Zhenwu Tang,Sini Tang,Shenqi Pills,Jianzhong Tang and Wuling Powder can be used by modification or combination based on syndrome differentiation in treating senile CHF complicated with sarcopenia.For both of the congenital and acquired origin(spleen and kidney)of elderly patients with CHF complicated with sarcopenia are deficient,the utilization of herbs for invigorating spleen and boosting kidney on the basis of syndrome differentiation may achieve good efficacy.

Objective:To explore the application effect of the BOPPPS[bridge-in(B), objective(O), pre-assessment(P), participatory learning(P), post-assessment(P), Summary(S) ]model combined with scenario-based teaching in out-of-school first aid training for school-aged children, aiming to offer insights for relevant educational practices.Methods:A quasi-experimental study was conducted. Using cluster sampling, 131 school-aged children participating in Wuhan first aid summer camp from July to August 2024 were selected as participants. Among them, 65 children enrolled in July 2024 were assigned to the control group and received training using traditional teaching methods, while 66 children enrolled in August 2024 were assigned to the experimental group and underwent training designed with the BOPPPS model integrated with scenario-based teaching according to the time of entry into the camp. After the training, theoretical exam scores, learning process evaluations, and training satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results:The control group included 31 boys and 34 girls, aged (9.32 ± 1.83) years; the experimental group included 34 boys and 32 girls, aged (9.71 ± 1.73) years. After the intervention, the total scores of theoretical examination, learning process evaluation, and training satisfaction in the experimental group were (90.27 ± 4.41), (42.79 ± 1.39), and (21.43 ± 2.41) points, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (82.05 ± 6.29), (38.85 ± 1.91), and (19.54 ± 3.02) points, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=6.94, 3.15, 4.16, all P<0.05). Conclusions:This out-of-school first aid training for school-aged children leveraged the professional expertise of a tertiary grade A hospital′s pediatric department. The integration of the BOPPPS model with scenario-based teaching effectively enhanced the first aid competencies of school-aged children and improved their satisfaction with the training.
