Work serves as a critical means of obtaining resources, facilitating personal growth, realizing self-worth, and engaging in social interactions. However, work-related diseases pose significant threats to workers’ health and productivity, and impose considerable economic burdens. This article categorized work-related diseases into six major types, including musculoskeletal disorders, mental and behavioral disorders, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, digestive system diseases, reproductive system diseases, and non-specific respiratory diseases, and summarized their risk factors, assessment methods, policy regulation, and prevention and control measures. Current research in this field predominantly relies on cross-sectional studies, which present limitations in causal inference and potential risks of bias. Future studies should expand sample sizes, optimize research designs, and establish multidimensional evaluation systems to comprehensively assess the health and economic impacts of work-related diseases. It is recommended to enhance the translation of research findings into practice, thereby providing a scientific basis for the occupational health protection system and promoting the well-being and sustainable development of the working population.

Background Patients with pneumoconiosis often have limited disease-related knowledge, insufficient access to health education, and substantial health management needs. Health education may help improve rehabilitation outcomes and quality of life in this population. Objective To evaluate the effects of health education based on the Listen-Establish-Adopt-Reinforce-Name-Strength (LEARNS) model on rehabilitation outcomes, health-related behaviors, and quality of life among pneumoconiosis patients, and provide effective intervention strategies for the rehabilitation management of patients with pneumoconiosis. Methods A randomized controlled trial was conducted. A total of 120 pneumoconiosis patients treated in the Department of Occupational Diseases, Beijing Emergency General Hospital, from November 2024 to February 2025 were enrolled. Participants were randomly assigned to a control group or an intervention group using a random number table method, with 60 patients in each group. The control group received routine pharmacotherapy, whereas the intervention group received a 12-week LEARNS model-based health-education intervention in addition to routine treatment. The 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) was used to assess exercise tolerance, and the modified Medical Research Council dyspnoea scale (mMRC) was used to evaluate dyspnoea. The Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) were applied for psychological status assessment. Pulmonary function, including forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV₁) and forced vital capacity (FVC), was measured using spirometry. A self-designed scale was used to evaluate eight health-related behaviors targeted by the health education program. The 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Assessment Test (CAT) were used to assess quality of life, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was adopted to evaluate sleep quality. Results After the 12-week intervention, the control group showed no statistically significant changes from baseline in the measured outcomes(P＞0.05). In the intervention group, exercise tolerance improved significantly, with the 6-minute walking distance increasing from (382.55±19.52) m to (426.84±33.59) m (P＜0.001). Dyspnoea was also alleviated, with the mMRC score decreasing from 1.37±0.66 to 0.96±0.54 (P＜0.001). The CAT score decreased from 18.95±7.03 to 10.67±3.64 (P＜0.001). Significant improvements were observed in anxiety and depression symptoms (P＜0.001), with the SAS score decreasing from 38.85±6.24 to 34.27±2.27, and the SDS score decreasing from 49.01±3.25 to 45.49±3.44. Sleep quality improved significantly, with the PSQI score dropping from 7.89±4.35 to 4.05±2.31 (P＜0.001). All eight health-related behaviors in the intervention group improved significantly after the intervention (P＜0.001), including acquisition of disease-related knowledge (1.87±0.34 vs. 3.13±0.45), participation in health education activities (1.89±0.52 vs. 3.61±0.38), and regular physical exercise (2.37±0.41 vs. 4.17±0.33). All SF-36 domain scores increased significantly (P＜0.05), with the most prominent improvements observed in physical functioning, general health, and vitality. At week 12, all SF-36 domain scores were significantly higher in the intervention group than in the control group (P＜0.05). No statistically significant between-group differences were detected in pulmonary function parameters (P＞0.05). Conclusion LEARNS model-based health education could improve exercise tolerance, dyspnea, psychological status, sleep quality, health-related behaviors, and quality of life among patients with pneumoconiosis, and therefore may be a useful adjunctive strategy for rehabilitation management in patients with pneumoconiosis.

The active ingredients of Curcuma aromatica have multi-target effects and could intervene in the process of neurodegenerative diseases from multiple perspectives, such as promoting the clearance of Aβ, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, neuroprotective, anti-depressant, and anti-tumor effects. However, the low bioavailability of Curcuma extracts limits their therapeutic effects in the body. In addition, the side effects of long-term use and the dose-effect relationship are still unclear, and more new pharmacodynamic observations are needed. This article reviews the research on single-ingredient and compound traditional Chinese medicine preparations of Curcuma to provide references for clinical medication.

Objective:To construct nomogram model based on lymph node imaging parameters for predicting the risk of lymph node metastasis in lung malignancies.Methods:From November 2020 to September 2022, 34 patients (23 males, 11 females, age (65.8±6.8) years) diagnosed with lung malignancies by pathology at the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University were prospectively collected. Based on enhanced CT and 99Tc m-hydrazinonicotinamide-(polyethylene glycol) 4-E((polyethylene glycol) 4-c((Arg-Gly-Asp)fK)) 2 (HYNIC-PEG 4-E(PEG 4-c(RGDfK)) 2; 3PRGD 2)SPECT/CT imaging, referring to the mediastinal lymph node zoning standards formulated by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer, lymph nodes with clear pathological properties and imaging locations were included in the study. Lymph nodes were randomly divide into a training group and a validation group at a ratio of 7∶3. Differences of imaging parameters between positive and negative lymph node metastasis were compared by independent-sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test or χ2 test. Parameters with statistical differences were incorporate into the multivariate logistic regression equation, and a joint variable diagnostic model for predicting lymph node metastasis was generated. The potential of the model was evaluate by ROC curve analysis, calibration, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results:Among 34 patients with malignant lung tumors, 11 had lymph node metastasis. A total of 174 lymph nodes met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into a training group of 114 nodes and a validation group of 60 nodes. In the training group and validation group, there were statistically significant differences in lymph node length, lymph node short diameter, lymph node length/short diameter, necrosis, lymph node to mediastinal blood pool radioactive count ratio (T/B), lymph node to liver radioactive count ratio (T/L), lymph node to muscle radioactive count ratio (T/M), and lymph node enhancement mode between patients with positive and negative lymph node metastasis ( χ2 values: 3.89-34.06, t values: 2.31-3.87, Z values: from -3.63 to -2.30, all P<0.05). The lymph node edge was different only in the training group ( χ2=5.62, P=0.018). Finally, the lymph node length/short diameter, edge, necrosis, T/B, T/L, T/M, and lymph node enhancement modes were included in the multivariate logistic regression prediction model, with the AUCs of 0.878 and 0.949 in the training and validation groups, respectively. The calibration curve showed good consistency between the predicted results and the actual results, and DCA showed that the nomogram had clinical practicality. Conclusion:The nomogram model constructed based on the imaging parameters of lymph nodes can evaluate the risk of lymph node metastasis in patients with lung malignancies, providing a convenient and objective tool for determining staging and developing treatment plans.

Objective:To explore the role and mechanism of serum response factor (SRF) and lncRNA FGD5-AS1 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).Methods:The plasma and tissue wax of LUAD patients treated in Tangshan People's Hospital from 2020 to 2022 and the plasma of healthy people were collected. The expression of SRF in LUAD tissues and cells, and the expression of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 in LUAD tissues, plasma and cells were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The expression levels of SRF and lncRNA FGD5-AS1 in LUAD tissue microarray were detected by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. LUAD cells A549, H1299 and H1975 were cultured in vitro and divided into si-NC and si-SRF groups, si-NC and si-lncRNA FGD5-AS1 groups, pcDNA3.1 and lncRNA FGD5-AS1 groups, si-NC+pcDNA3.1/si-SRF+pcDNA3.1/si-SRF+lncRNA FGD5-AS1 groups. The effects of the above groups on the proliferation, invasion and migration of LUAD cells were detected by CCK-8, cloning formation, EdU, Transwell and scratch test. The JASPAR database was used to predict the downstream lncRNA FGD5-AS1 that can be regulated by SRF; double luciferase experiment, chromatin Immunoprecipitation (CHIP) and electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) experiment were used to verify the regulatory effect between SRF and lncRNA FGD5-AS1, and the subcutaneous tumorigenesis experiment in nude mice was used to detect the effects of cells that stably knock down SRF and stably overexpress lncRNA FGD5-AS1 on the growth of transplanted tumors. Results:The results of immunohistochemistry showed that the mean optical density of SRF in LUAD tissues (1.49±0.33) was higher than that in adjacent tissues (1.00±0.00, P＜0.001). The expression level of SRF in paraffin tissues of LUAD patients was higher than that in normal tissues adjacent to cancer ( P=0.037). CCK-8, cloning, scratch and Transwell experiments showed that knockdown SRF could inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion of A549 and H1299 cells, respectively. [For A549 cells: The clone formation count, migration count, invasion count, and 48-h migration distance ratio were (233.70±18.50), (808.70±6.11), (489.70±53.00), and 1.00±0.03, respectively, in the si-NC group; and (131.30±22.50), (403.00±9.54), (372.70±26.27), and 2.14±0.09, respectively, in the si-SRF group. For H1299 cells: The clone formation count, migration count, invasion count, and 48-h migration distance ratio were (194.30±20.98), (988.70±64.52), (907.70±67.02), and 1.00±0.05, respectively, in the si-NC group; and (137.70±7.77), (665.70±157.10), (565.70±67.01), and 1.52±0.03, respectively, in the si-SRF group. All comparisons showed statistically significant differences ( P＜0.05)] JASPAR database prediction shows that SRF and lncRNA FGD5-AS1 have binding site. The double luciferase experiment, CHIP and EMSA experiments showed that SRF could regulate lncRNA FGD5-AS1. In situ hybridization showed that the mean optical density of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 in tissue microarray of LUAD patients (1.28±0.31) was higher than that in adjacent tissues (1.00±0.00, P＜0.001). The results of qRT-PCR experiment showed that the expression level of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 in wax tissues of LUAD patients was higher than that in normal tissues adjacent to cancer ( P=0.017). The expression level of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 in plasma of LUAD patients (3.48±2.62) was higher than that of healthy people (1.02±0.03, P＜0.001). CCK-8, cloning, EDU, scratch and Transwell experiments showed that overexpression of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 could promote cell proliferation [For A549 cells: The clone formation count, EdU-positive cell count, invasion count, and 48-h migration distance ratio were (22.67±5.86), (1.00±0.09), (135.70±13.20), and 0.35±0.02, respectively, in the pcDNA3.1 group; and (46.33±9.07), (1.65±0.10), (205.00±13.23), and 0.20±0.01, respectively, in the FGD5-AS1-overexpressing group. All comparisons showed statistically significant differences ( P＜0.05)], migration and invasion and vice versa [For H1975 cells: The clone formation count, EdU-positive cell count, invasion count, and 48-h migration distance ratio were (75.33±4.16), (1.00±0.02), (258.70±45.79), and 0.18±0.01, respectively, in the NC group; and (37.00±4.00), (0.52±0.07), (130.70±9.07), and 0.53±0.04, respectively, in the lncRNA FGD5-AS1 knockdown group (si-lncRNA FGD5-AS1 group). All comparisons showed statistically significant differences ( P＜0.05)]. Overexpression of lncRNA FGD5-AS1 could rescue the effect of knockdown SRF on the proliferation, migration and invasion of A549 and H1299 cells. The results of subcutaneous tumorigenesis experiment in nude mice indicated that the tumorigenicity of LUAD cells stably knockdown SRF was weakened and vice versa. Conclusion:SRF can promote the progress of LUAD by regulating lncRNA FGD5-AS1.

Objective:To investigate the inpact of thyroid cancer-derived cancer-associated fibroblasts(CAF) autophagy on papillary thyroid cancer(PTC).Methods:CAF and normal fibroblasts were isolated from cancerous and adjacent normal thyroid tissues from four PTC patients. Expressions of fibroblast activation protein(FAP) and α-smooth muscle actin in cells were assessed. Conditioned medium of CAF and normal fibroblasts were prepared and used to culture PTC cells. The effects of CAF and normal fibroblasts on survival, proliferation, migration, invasion and iodine uptake of PTC cells were evaluated through cell proliferation assay, cell scratch assay, cell invasion assay, and cell iodine uptake assay. The autophagy level of CAF was also evaluated. Autophagy inhibition and activation were used to regulate the autophagy of CAF, and then their effects on PTC cell proliferation, migration and invasion were further evaluated. The in vivo effect of CAF autophagy on PTC xenograft tumor growth was evaluated.Results:CAF exhibited higher FAP expression and basal autophagy levels. PTC cells co-cultured with CAF-conditioned media showed enhanced proliferation, migration, invasion, and reduced iodine uptake. Autophagy inhibition reduced these effects, while autophagy activation further promoted them. In vivo, inhibiting CAF autophagy suppressed tumor growth.Conclusions:CAF promotes PTC cell malignancy through autophagy activation, enhancing proliferation, migration, and invasion while reducing iodine uptake.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and independent risk factors of severe disease in patients with anti-nuclear matrix protein (NXP) 2 antibody-positive juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted, including 219 anti-NXP2 antibody-positive JDM patients admitted to 23 children′s hospitals across China from July 2011 to July 2023. Patients were classified into severe and non-severe groups based on classification criteria for severe dermatomyositis. Demographic characteristics, clinical manifestations, and laboratory parameters were compared between the 2 groups using independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, or χ2 test. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors for severe disease. The receiver operating characteristic curve was employed to calculate optimal cut-off values. Results:Among the 219 patients, 108 were male and 111 were female, with an age at onset of 6.3 (3.5, 9.4) years. The severe group comprised 69 patients, and the non-severe group 150 patients. The severe group had significantly higher rates of fever, heliotrope rash, subcutaneous edema, periorbital edema, anti-Ro52 antibody positivity, as well as elevated levels of ferritin-to-albumin ratio (FAR), creatine kinase (CK), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis identified anti-Ro52 antibody positivity ( OR=13.26, 95% CI 1.37-128.29) and elevated FAR ( OR=1.90, 95% CI 1.09-2.31) as independent risk factors for severe anti-NXP2 antibody-positive JDM (both P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that a FAR cutoff value of 6.82 predicted severe disease with an area under the curve of 0.87 (95% CI 0.81-0.94, P<0.001), sensitivity of 0.85, and specificity of 0.70. All patients received glucocorticoid therapy, and the severe group received higher proportions of steroid pulse therapy, cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, intravenous immunoglobulin, biologics, and adjuvant treatments compared to the non-severe group (all P<0.05). In terms of outcomes, 2 patients (2.9%) in the severe group died (due to neurological involvement and intestinal perforation, respectively), while the remaining patients achieved complete clinical response or remission. All patients in the non-severe group achieved remission. Conclusions:The primary clinical features of anti-NXP2 antibody-positive JDM included fever, heliotrope rash, subcutaneous edema, periorbital edema, anti-Ro52 antibody positivity, and elevated levels of CK, AST, LDH, and FAR. Furthermore, anti-Ro52 antibody positivity and a FAR>6.82 were identified as independent risk factors.

Objective To investigate the mechanism by which Biejiajian Pill(BJJP)regulates ferroptosis in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)cells through the p62/Keap1/NRF2 pathway and to provide an experimental basis for its application in the prevention and treatment of HCC.Methods Huh7 HCC cells were divided into a normal control group,a BJJP drug serum group,an erastin(a ferroptosis inducer)group,a BJJP drug serum+erastin group,and BJJP drug serum+ferrostatin-1(Fer-1)(a ferroptosis inhibitor)group.BJJP drug serum was prepared with animals treated with BJJP and CCK-8 assay was performed to determine the optimal concentration and duration of BJJP intervention.The levels of intracellular iron(Fe),reduced glutathione(GSH),lipid peroxides(MDA),and reactive oxygen species(ROS)were measured.Western blot was performed to determine the expression levels of FTH1,GPX4,xCT,SLC40A1,Keapl,p62,and NRF2.JC-1 staining was performed to measure mitochondrial membrane potential,and cell immunofluorescence was performed to determine the expression of p62 and Keap1.Results According to the CCK-8 assay results,the cell inhibition rate was highest when BJJP was administered at a high dose of 2.2 g/kg(P＜0.001).Furthermore,the inhibition rate of Huh7 cells was highest when Huh7 cells were treated with high-dose BJJP drug serum for 48 h.Therefore,the serum concentration of high-dose BJJP and 48 h were selected as the treatment dose and duration for the subsequent experiment.Compared with the control group,the BJJP drug serum group,the erastin group,and the BJJP drug serum+erastin group showed increased iron content,decreased GSH content,increased MDA levels,increased ROS aggregation,decreased FTH1,GPX4,xCT,SLC40A1,p62,and NRF2 contents,increased Keap1 content,and decreased mitochondrial membrane potential(P＜0.05).Conclusion BJJP regulates ferroptosis in Huh7 HCC cells by inhibiting the p62/Keap1/NRF2 pathway,demonstrating potentials as a therapeutic agent for HCC.
