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.

The recombinant human thyroid-stimulating hormone (rhTSH) can be used for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) preparation before ¹³¹I therapy, and follow-up. Since its approval by the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1998, rhTSH has been clinically used in European countries, the United States, and other countries for nearly 30 years. In April 2024, China’s first independently developed rhTSH agent was approved. Based on clinical experience and evidence from domestic and international studies, an expert consensus on the application of rhTSH has been developed following thorough consultations among experts. The consensus offers evidence-based recommendations to guide the appropriate use of rhTSH in clinical practice.

BackgroundIn recent years， the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea （OSA） is escalating in China， leading to a serious disease burden. However， previous studies on the influencing factors of OSA， such as obesity and sleep position， were mostly cross-sectional studies. This approach inherently hinders the identification of dynamic interaction mechanism among multiple variables， consequently obstructing the formulation of individualized intervention strategies. ObjectiveTo investigate the differences in body mass index （BMI）-oxygen saturation-sleep position-heart rate variability （HRV） network models between OSA and non-OSA populations， thereby offering a reference for the early detection and management of OSA. MethodsA total of 384 adult participants undergoing sleep monitoring at the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University from July 12， 2022 to October 11， 2023 were included. Subjects were categorized into OSA group （n=203） and control group （n=181） based on an apnea-hypopnea index （AHI） threshold of 5 events per hour. Subsequently， BMI-oxygen saturation-sleep position-HRV networks were constructed and compared between two groups. ResultsThere was no significant difference in the overall edge weight （P=0.55） and overall strength （P=0.28） of the network model between control group and OSA group. Notable differences emerged in both the node connection strength （e.g.， minimum oxygen saturation with BMI， sleep in prone position， and mean RR interval） and node centrality indices （mean oxygen saturation， minimum oxygen saturation， AHI in upright position， AHI in right lateral position and mean heart rate） within the two network models （P<0.05）. ConclusionSignificant differences are observed between the non-OSA and OSA populations in specific factors， including sleep position， heart rate and oxygen saturation.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics，laboratory tests，endoscopic features，treatment，and follow-up of peptic ulcers caused by eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders（EGIDs）in children，with the aim of improving the level of understanding，diagnosis and treatment of EGIDs in children with the onset of peptic ulcers.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on children admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology，Capital Center for Children's Health，Capital Medical University from January 1st，2019 to October 31st，2023，who underwent complete endoscopic examination. The first examination showed the presence of peptic ulcers（gastric or duodenal ulcers）under the endoscope，and were ultimately diagnosed with peptic ulcers caused by EGIDs through examination and follow-up. The clinical characteristics，laboratory tests，endoscopic results，and treatment follow-up were analyzed.Results:Thirty-five children were EGIDs，22 males and 13 females.Twenty-two cases（62.9%）had abdominal pain as the main symptom.Laboratory tests：17 cases（48.6%）showed a decrease in hemoglobin，15 cases（42.9%）showed an increase in eosinophil count，20 cases（57.1%）tested gastro positive for food allergen specific IgE，and 17 cases（48.6%）showed thickening of the intestinal wall on gastrointestinal ultrasound. Endoscopic features：8 cases（22.9%）showed gastric antral ulcers，including 7 cases（20.0%）with multiple gastric antral ulcers，and 25 cases（71.4%）showed duodenal bulb ulcers.There were 15 cases（42.9%）showed huge ulcers，and 14 cases（40.0%）were located in the duodenal bulb. Comparison of clinical characteristics between children with EGIDs（EGIDs group）and those with peptic ulcers caused by Helicobacter pylori infection（Hp group）：the first clinical symptom in both groups was mainly abdominal pain，but the incidence rate in the EGIDs group was lower（62.9% vs 93.5%），and the weigth for length Z score in the EGIDs group was lower［0（-1.6，0.8）vs 1.1（0，1.9）］，with statistical significance（all P<0.05）. Comparison of laboratory tests：the EGIDs group showed a statistically significant difference in hemoglobin levels［120（101，124）g/L vs 130（100，138）g/L］，eosinophil count［0.28（0.13，0.71）× 10 9/L vs 0.16（0.08，0.22）×10 9/L］，a positive rate of food allergen specific IgE detection（57.1% vs 32.3%），and a positive rate of intestinal wall thickening detected by gastrointestinal ultrasound（48.6% vs 16.1%）compared with the Hp group（all P<0.05）. Comparison of endoscopic examinations：multiple ulcers in the gastric antrum were more common in the EGIDs group than in the Hp group（20.0% vs 0），and the difference was statistically significant（ P<0.05）. Conclusion:For children with peptic ulcers with onset of abdominal pain，with anemia or malnutrition，or multiple ulcers in the gastric antrum and huge ulcers in the duodenal bulb detected by endoscopy，it is recommended to perform multi site biopsies to help diagnose EGIDs early.

AIM: To investigate the specific molecular mechanism of Yinqiao Powder in affecting macrophage polarization in herpes simplex keratitis(HSK)through the cyclic GMP-AMP synthetase(cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes(STING)-interferon regulatory factor 3(IRF3)molecular pathway.METHODS:Human corneal epithelial cells(HCE-T)were divided into control, HSK, and HSK + Yinqiao Powder groups. M0 macrophages were grouped as Ctrl, HSV-1, HSV-1+oe-cGAS, HSV-1+Yinqiao Powder, and HSV-1+oe-cGAS+Yinqiao Powder. Conditional medium(CM)from each group of M0 macrophages was collected to intervene in HCE-T cells and divided into Ctrl-CM, HSV-1-CM, HSV-1+oe-cGAS-CM, and HSV-1+Yinqiao Powder-CM groups. Cell viability was detected by MTT assay, and apoptosis was detected by TUNEL assay. ELISA was used to detect the concentrations of Arg-1 and iNOS in cell supernatants, and Western blotting was used to detect the relative protein expressions of cGAS, STING, and IRF3. Balb/c mice were divided into control, model, and drug groups. The model and drug groups were inoculated with HSV-1 on the cornea of Balb/c mice using the corneal scratch method to construct an HSK mouse model, and the drug group was treated with Yinqiao Powder. The incidence and mortality of the three groups were compared on days 1, 3, 5, 7, and 14 after modeling.RESULTS:Compared with the control group, the HCE-T cell viability in the HSK group was decreased but apoptosis was increased, which was reversed by Yinqiao Powder intervention. Compared with the Ctrl group, the Arg-1 concentration in the cell supernatant of the HSV-1 group was decreased, the iNOS concentration was increased, and the protein expressions of cGAS, STING, and IRF3 were decreased. Compared with the HSV-1 group, the Arg-1 concentration was increased, the iNOS concentration was decreased, and the protein expressions of cGAS, STING, and IRF3 were enhanced in the HSV-1+oe-cGAS group and the HSV-1+Yinqiao Powder group, and the same results were obtained in the HSV-1+oe-cGAS+Yinqiao Powder group. Compared with the Ctrl-CM group, the HCE-T cell viability was decreased and apoptosis was increased in the HSV-1-CM group, which was reversed by overexpressing cGAS in macrophages or intervening with Yinqiao Powder. In vivo experiments found that Yinqiao Powder intervention could improve the pathological progression of keratitis.CONCLUSION:Yinqiao Powder inhibits M1 polarization of macrophages through the cGAS-STING-IRF3 molecular pathway, thereby delaying the progression of HSK.

Objective To construct a graded nursing program for exercise rehabilitation of children with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT)and carry out a preliminary application,aiming to provide a basis for healthcare personnel to guide the exercise rehabilitation of children with HSCT.Methods Literature analysis and Delphi expert correspondence were used to construct a graded nursing program of exercise rehabilitation for children with HSCT.Through the convenience sampling method,children with HSCT in the hematology department of a tertiary-level children's hospital in Suzhou City were selected as the study subjects from June-December 2023,of which 26 children with HSCT from September-December 2023 served as an experimental group,and 23 children with HSCT from June-August 2023 as a control group.The experimental group was applied with the graded nursing program of exercise rehabilitation,and the control group was applied with the conventional nursing care.The comparison of cardiorespiratory fitness and adverse events between the 2 groups after 8 weeks of exercise intervention was conducted,and the adherence to the exercise intervention programme in the experimental group was recorded.Results The final constructed graded care program of exercise rehabilitation for children with HSCT included 6 primary indicators,20 secondary indicators,and 44 tertiary indicators.Finally,21 children in the experimental group and 23 children in the control group were included in the study.After the intervention,the 6 min walking distance of the experimental group increased compared with that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.001).85.71％of children in the experimental group had good exercise compliance,and there was no adverse events in both groups.Conclusion The constructed graded nursing program of exercise rehabilitation for children with HSCT is scientific,reasonable,safe and feasible,which can improve the cardiorespiratory capacity of children with HSCT and provide the basis for their exercise rehabilitation.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) score, procalcitonin (PCT), blood lactate, hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels, and the prognosis of patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods:This retrospective analysis included 225 pancreatitis cases admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology at Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture People's Hospital between February 2020 and February 2025. Patients were categorized into three groups based on severity: SAP group ( n=125), moderately severe acute pancreatitis (MSAP) group ( n=50), and mild acute pancreatitis (MAP) group ( n=50). General patient data, qSOFA scores, PCT, lactate, and hs-CRP levels were compared among the groups. Within the SAP group, patients were further divided into a favorable prognosis group ( n=101) and a poor prognosis group ( n=24) based on 28-day survival. The relationship between qSOFA score, PCT, lactate, hs-CRP, and SAP prognosis was analyzed. Normally distributed continuous data were expressed as Mean±SD. Independent samples t-test was used on comparison between two groups, while one-way ANOVA was used on comparison among multiple groups. LSD test was used on post-hoc pairwise comparison. Categorical data were expressed as n(%) and compared by χ2 test. Spearman correlation analysis assessed the correlation between qSOFA score, PCT, lactate, hs-CRP levels, and acute pancreatitis (AP) severity. Multivariable logistic regression modeling was used for joint prediction, incorporating qSOFA score, serum PCT, lactate, and hs-CRP levels to calculate combined predictive efficacy. The predictive performance of each indicator for prognosis was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The areas under the ROC curves (AUC) were compared using DeLong's test. Results:Significant differences were observed among the MAP, MSAP, and SAP groups for qSOFA score [(0.63±0.29), (1.32±0.37), (1.70±0.33) points], serum PCT [(4.06±0.74), (5.35±0.89), (6.12±0.98) μg/L], lactate [(1.74±0.32), (2.77±0.70), (4.29±1.06) mmol/L], and hs-CRP levels [(15.38±3.75), (27.64±5.09), (35.26±6.42) mg/L] ( F values=187.51, 91.83, 169.18, 223.92, respectively, all P<0.001). The SAP group had significantly higher levels of qSOFA score, serum PCT, lactate, and hs-CRP compared to both the MAP and MSAP groups (all P<0.05), and the MSAP group levels were significantly higher than the MAP group (all P<0.05). The poor prognosis group had significantly higher levels of qSOFA score [(1.92±0.19) points], PCT [(6.65±0.47) μg/L], lactate [(5.14±0.62) mmol/L], and hs-CRP [(40.65±4.73) mg/L] compared to the favorable prognosis group [(1.65±0.25) points, (5.99±0.84) μg/L, (4.09±0.94) mmol/L, (34.16±6.09) mg/L] ( t values=4.96, 3.71, 5.20, 4.88, respectively, all P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified qSOFA score ( OR=14.658, 95% CI: 2.612-82.253), PCT ( OR=2.809, 95% CI: 1.288-6.129), lactate ( OR=3.658, 95% CI: 1.635-8.187), and hs-CRP ( OR=1.168, 95% CI: 1.055-1.293) as independent influencing factors for SAP patient prognosis ( P=0.002, 0.010, 0.002, 0.003, respectively). ROC curve analysis showed that the AUCs for qSOFA score, PCT, lactate, and hs-CRP in predicting poor prognosis in SAP patients were 0.754, 0.856, 0.766, and 0.809, with sensitivities of 87.50%, 83.33%, 83.33%, 85.50%, and specificities of 60.40%, 77.20%, 64.40%, 75.20%, respectively. The combined prediction model yielded an AUC of 0.934, with a sensitivity of 95.80% and specificity of 72.30%. Conclusion:The qSOFA score, PCT, blood lactate, and hs-CRP levels are associated with the severity of AP and possess reference value for predicting the prognosis of SAP patients.

Ethical utilitarianism is a consequence-oriented ethical theory that pursues the maximization of happiness and fully considers the long-term impact of behavior. In the ethical review of human organ donation and transplantation, this theory is mainly applied in three aspects, ethical review supervision, process and content. However, in practice, it faces challenges such as the difficulty and subjectivity of utility calculation, the balance between individual rights and social welfare, the long-term impact of decision-making, and international cooperation under a global perspective. Therefore, governance strategies such as improving ethical review policy rules, refining the ethical review system by drawing on international experience, and strengthening public education and publicity are proposed. Despite many challenges, ethical utilitarianism still provides an important theoretical framework for the ethical review of human organ donation and transplantation. Therefore, this article reviews the application of ethical utilitarianism in the ethical review of human organ donation and transplantation and its challenges, aiming to provide a reference for related research on the ethical review of human organ donation and transplantation.

Objective:To examine the association among childhood emotional neglect, thwarted belongingness, perceived burdensomeness, and depression in junior high school students.Methods:From October to December 2024, a total of 314 junior high school students were recruited in Dongying City, Shandong Province. The Chinese versions of the childhood trauma questionnaire-short form (CTQ-SF), the center for epidemiologic studies depression scale (CES-D), and the interpersonal needs questionnaire (INQ) were administered for investigation. SPSS 27.0 software was used for common-method bias test, descriptive analysis, difference test, and correlation analysis. Mplus 8.3 software was employed to build a structural equation model, and the Bootstrap method was adopted for mediation analysis.Results:The scores of depression, childhood emotional neglect, thwarted belongingness, and perceived burdensomeness in junior high school students were 14.00 (9.00, 24.00), 9.00 (5.00, 12.00), 13.00 (8.00, 18.00) and 8.00 (6.00, 19.25), respectively. All variables were positively correlated with one another ( r=0.33-0.51, P<0.01). The total effect of childhood emotional neglect on depression was 0.493 (95% CI=0.396-0.591). The direct effect was 0.126 (95% CI=0.013-0.240), accounting for 25.56%(0.126/0.493) of the total effect. The total indirect effect was 0.367 (95% CI=0.287-0.447), accounting for 74.44%(0.367/0.493) of the total effect. Specifically, the pathway " childhood emotional neglect → thwarted belongingness→ depression" yielded an effect of 0.109, and the pathway " childhood emotional neglect → perceived burdensomeness → depression" yielded an effect of 0.258. Conclusion:Thwarted belongingness and perceived burdensomeness play parallel mediating effects between childhood emotional neglect and depression in junior high school students.

Chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG）， a common digestive system disease， has an unclear pathogenesis. Currently， it is mostly believed to be related to Helicobacter pylori （Hp） infection， immune factors， dietary factors， bile reflux， long-term use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs， and other factors. Ferroptosis is a regulated cell death mechanism that is iron-dependent and characterized by disruption of iron metabolism and accumulation of lipid peroxides. More and more studies have found that ferroptosis is closely related to the onset of CAG. Professor LI Diangui， a master of traditional Chinese medicine， first proposed the turbid toxin theory， which holds that spleen deficiency and turbid toxin is the main pathogenic mechanism of CAG. Abnormal iron metabolism regulation is a prerequisite for the accumulation of turbid toxin in CAG， and ferroptosis is in accordance with the pathogenic mechanism （spleen deficiency and turbid toxin） of CAG. This article explores the pathological mechanism of spleen deficiency and turbid toxin in CAG from the perspectives of iron metabolism， oxidative stress， and lipid peroxidation， providing theoretical support of traditional Chinese medicine for the modern research on CAG. It enriches the modern scientific connotation of the turbid toxicity theory and provides new ideas and breakthrough points for the clinical treatment of CAG.
