Objective To analyze personal external exposure dose monitoring results of pet hospital radiation workers in Beijing from 2022 to 2024, and to provide scientific evidence for developing effective monitoring protocols, standardizing radiological practices in pet hospitals, and protecting the health of both workers and the public. Methods Personal dose equivalents, Hp(10), were measured using GR-200A thermoluminescent dosimeters. Monitoring included radiation workers at 286 pet hospitals across all 16 districts of Beijing from 2022 to 2024. Each monitoring cycle lasted no more than 90 days. Annual effective doses were calculated by summing the results of four consecutive quarterly cycles. Data were processed and analyzed using Access and TLPS 6.41 software. All evaluations complied with national laws, regulations, and technical standards. Results A total of 1,579 person-time measurements were recorded. Only 51.87% of workers completed the full four-cycle annual monitoring schedule. Over the study period, the mean annual effective dose was 0.29 mSv, and the median dose was 0.14 mSv. The collective effective dose was 238.34 man-mSv. Notably, 94.26% of workers had annual effective doses below 1.0 mSv, and only 0.12% had doses at or above 5 mSv. Dose levels showed a statistically significant downward trend (P<0.05). Both independent and chain-branded clinics had a median annual effective dose of 0.14 mSv. In independent clinics, the proportion of workers with doses below 1.0 mSv increased from 80.77% in 2022 to 98.82% in 2024. In chain-branded clinics, this proportion rose from 96.88% to 98.11% over the same period. Conclusion Radiation exposure among pet hospital workers in Beijing remains at low levels, well below regulatory limits, and shows an overall declining trend. The disparity in personal doses between independent and chain-branded pet hospitals has diminished over time. Nevertheless, the industry still faces challenges such as high staff turnover and low monitoring completion rates. Expanding monitoring coverage and harmonizing protection standards would provide a scientific basis for precise, nationwide regulation.

Objective This study compared organ doses and effective doses in typical adult patients during dental CBCT examinations using a head-and-neck anthropomorphic phantom and a whole-body phantom. It aimed to determine an appropriate method for evaluating effective dose in dental CBCT. Methods A domestically manufactured dental CBCT unit was used to scan an adult male anthropomorphic phantom under simulated clinical conditions. Thermoluminescent dosimeters were placed on organs and tissues of a whole-body anthropomorphic phantom. Organ equivalent doses were measured, and effective doses were calculated using two approaches: one based on all organ doses from the whole-body phantom, and the other based only on head-and-neck organ doses. Entrance surface air kerma (Ka,e) was also measured at the lens of the eye, thyroid, thymus, and gonads. Results The effective dose estimated with the whole-body phantom was 382.03 μSv. The effective dose estimated with the head-and-neck phantom was 354.03 μSv. The radiation dose to head-and-neck organs and tissues accounted for 92.7% of the total effective dose. The highest Ka,e values were found in the parotid glands, followed by the lens of the eye. Conclusion During dental CBCT scanning, the contribution of organ below the head and neck to the total effective dose is limited. To simplify dose assessment procedures, the effective dose for the patient can be evaluated using only a head-and-neck phantom.

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma(PPAR-γ)is a member of the ligand-activated nuclear tran-scription factor superfamily.Activated PPAR-γ is involved in the regulation of many central nervous system(CNS)events,and is involved in cholesterol metabolism by inducing or inhibi-ting a series of gene pathways,thereby inhibiting the deposition of β-amyloid protein(Aβ).It plays an important neuroprotec-tive role in Alzheimer's disease(AD),improves memory and cognition in AD,and is a potential target for AD.Drug develop-ment aimed at restoring cholesterol homeostasis may be a poten-tial strategy to counteract AD.By analyzing the distribution and structure of PPAR-γ,focusing on the biological correlation be-tween PPAR-γ-mediated cholesterol metabolism and AD,this paper describes the mechanism regulation of PPAR-γ on key proteins,genes and their corresponding molecules,providing a new reference for the treatment of AD.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of diet management in patients with colorectal cancer after stent-based diverting technique, and to provide basis for formulating relevant nursing intervention strategies.Methods:Objective sampling method was used to conduct semi-structured interviews on 15 patients who underwent stent-based diverting technique for colorectal cancer and had the bypass tube removed from Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital Affiliated to Medical College of Zhejiang University from March to July 2023. The interview outline was established based on information-motivation-behavioral skills(IMB) model, and the data were analyzed, summarized and extracted by Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results:There were 10 males and 5 females, aged 34-76 years old. According to the three elements of the IMB model, the current situation of diet management was summarized into nine themes. The information included the difficulty in obtaining effective diet guidance information, the lack of specific diet guidance content, the need for individualized diet information guidance mode, and the poor continuity of information exchange after discharge. The motivations included ignoring the importance of diet management, dislike the taste of oral nutritional preparations, and weak support from family members. Behavioral skills include inadequate tube care skills and lack of oral nutrition preparation skills.Conclusions:There are many problems in the diet management of patients after colorectal cancer stent-based diverting technique. Medical staff should optimize the diet education information of colorectal cancer patients after surgery, provide multi-level, multi-time and multi-form continuous care, mobilize the active participation of family members, improve the motivation of patients′ diet management, refine the nursing process of the bypass tube, strengthen the application guidance of oral nutrition preparation skills, and improve patients′ diet management ability.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a multisystem disease associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia and has a complex pathogenesis. Studies have shown that gut microbiota dysbiosis is closely associated with the onset of NAFLD, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment can improve the laboratory markers and clinical symptoms of NAFLD patients by regulating intestinal microbiota and its metabolites. This article elaborates on the association between NAFLD and gut microbiota, the involvement of gut microbiota dysbiosis in the pathogenesis of NAFLD, and the possible mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine treatment in improving NAFLD from the perspective of gut microbiota, in order to provide new ideas for the treatment of NAFLD.
