Objective To assess the situation and influencing factors of occupational burnout among the staff at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Sichuan Province. Methods A total of 1 038 CDC staff members in Sichuan Province were selected as the study subjects using the stratified random sampling method. Occupational burnout of the staff was assessed using the Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey via an online questionnaire. Results The detection rate of occupational burnout was 42.3% (439/1 038). Binary logistic regression analysis result showed that, after controlling for confounding factors such as education level and alcohol consumption, CDC staffs aged at 20-<31, 31-<41, and 41-<51 years were at higher risk of occupational burnout compared with those ≥51 years (all P<0.05). CDC staffs with 5-<10 or ≥10 years of service had higher occupational burnout risk compared with those with <5 years (both P<0.05). CDC staffs with poor or fair health status, irregular diet, and poor sleep quality had higher risk of occupational burnout compared with those healthy, have regular diet, and good sleep quality (all P<0.05). The risk of occupational burnout increased with higher overtime frequency (all P<0.05). Conclusion Occupational burnout among CDC staffs in Sichuan Province is relatively high. Age, years of service, health status, diet, sleep quality, and overtime frequency are key influencing factors.

Objective:To explore the effect of 3D printing extravascular stent implantation on the hemodynamics of the relevant large vessels in patients with nutcracker syndrome(NCS),and to discuss the clinical safety of this new procedure.Methods:A total of 30 NCS patients admitted to Tangdu Hospital Affiliated to Air Force Military Medical University from May to December 2023 were prospectively included. All the patients were received laparoscopic 3D printing extravascular stent implantation for NCS treatment. Whether the lumbago,abdominal pain,hematuria,proteinuria and varicocele had improved after the stent implantation were observed. The inner diameter,blood flow velocity of left renal vein,abdominal aorta,superior mesenteric artery and the diameter of inferior vena cava were measured by ultrasound 1 day before surgery and 8 days after surgery,respectively.In addition,the carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity(cfPWV)was measured by a newly developed method,by which the arterial stiffness could be detected based on Doppler ultrasound. The blood flow Doppler spectra of each subject were recorded at the right common carotid artery and the right common femoral artery,respectively,then based on that,the cfPWV was automatically calculated by this new technique. The above internal diameters,blood flow velocity and cfPWV were compared before and after the laparoscopic 3D printing extravascular stent implantation.Results:Among the 30 patients,the postoperative blood flow velocity at the left renal vein compression site was significantly lower than that before surgery[(50.7 ± 14.8)cm/s vs(122.1 ± 24.1)cm/s, P<0.001)],and the clinical symptoms,including lumbago and abdominal pain,hematuria,proteinuria and varicocele were significantly improved(all P<0.05). There were no significant changes in the internal diameter,blood flow velocity of abdominal aorta,superior mesenteric artery and the diameter of inferior vena cava,and cfPWV before and after operation(all P>0.05). Conclusions:The 3D printing extravascular stent implantation through laparoscope can effectively improve left renal vein compression in patients with NCS,and cause no significant change in large arterial hemodynamics,suggesting that this surgical method is a safe and reliable treatment for patients with NCS.

To investigate the effects of Biyan Jiedu Capsules on the proliferation and apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells and their molecular mechanism, nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE1 and CNE2 were used. They were divided into control group(30% blank serum medium), low-(10% drug-containing serum + 20% blank serum medium), medium-(20% drug-containing serum + 10% blank serum medium), and high-(30% drug-containing serum medium) concentration group of Biyan Jiedu Capsules according to in vitro experiment. After 24 h of intervention, the effects of Biyan Jiedu Capsules on the proliferation of CNE1 and CNE2 were detected by CCK-8 assay, clonal formation experiment, and EdU staining. The effect of Biyan Jiedu Capsules on apoptosis of CNE1 and CNE2 was detected by flow cytometry. Western blot was used to detect the effect of Biyan Jiedu Capsules on the expression of X-linked apoptosis inhibitor protein(XIAP), survivin, proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA), and PI3K/Akt pathway-related proteins in CNE1 and CNE2. The results showed that compared with the control group, the survival rate of CNE1 and CNE2 in the medium and high concentration groups of Biyan Jiedu Capsules could be decreased in a concentration-dependent way(P<0.05, P<0.01). At the same time, EdU staining and clonal formation experiments showed that the proliferation of CNE1 and CNE2 was significantly inhibited in the medium and high concentration groups of Biyan Jiedu Capsules(P<0.05, P<0.01). Flow cytometry showed that the apoptosis rate of CNE1 and CNE2 was significantly increased in all concentration groups of Biyan Jiedu Capsules(P<0.01), and the apoptosis rate was concentration-dependent. Western blot showed that the expressions of XIAP, survivin, PCNA, p-PI3K, and p-Akt in all concentration groups of Biyan Jiedu Capsules were significantly down-regulated(P<0.05, P<0.01). In conclusion, Biyan Jiedu Capsules can inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells possibly by down-regulating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Traumatic main bronchus rupture is a relatively rare injury in thoracic trauma, which is extremely critical, with a mortality rate as high as 70% - 80%. The complete rupture and displacement of the traumatic cervical trachea can lead to asphyxia, hypoxia, and cardiac arrest, even death of the patient in a short time. We performed emergency surgery with the support of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for a case of traumatic cervical tracheal trunk complete rupture and displacement combined with cardiac arrest and achieved a successful rescue. We summarized our experience and found that timely surgical reconstruction of the airway is the key to increasing the traumatic main bronchus rupture survival of patients.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of laminoplasty via the intermuscular approach or posterior midline approach for treating spinal cord injury without radiographic abnormality (SCIWORA).Methods:A multi-center retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 135 patients with SCIWORA admitted to Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University School of Medicine, Xi'an No.5 Hospital, Henan Provincial People's Hospital, Zhengzhou Orthopedic Hospital, Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University from February 2021 to June 2023, including 75 males and 60 females, aged 35-78 years [(55.3±8.1)years]. The injury segments involved C 3-C 6. All the patients underwent posterior cervical open-door laminoplasty, among whom 70 patients were treated via the intermuscular approach (intermuscular group) and 65 via the posterior midline approach (posterior midline group). The operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, and length of hospital stay were recorded. The visual analogue scale (VAS) score, Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score, neck disability index (NDI), Barthel index, cervical Cobb angle, and cervical range of motion (ROM) were measured preoperatively, at 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up. The American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) scale was evaluated preoperatively, at 3, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up. The postoperative complication rate was recorded as well. Results:All the patients were followed up for 15-19 months [(16.3±1.6)months]. The operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage and length of hospital stay were (125.0±23.0)minutes, (210.4±34.8)ml, and (165.3±23.7)ml, and (5.3±0.1)days in the intermuscular group, which were significantly shorter or less than (168.0±27.6)minutes, (260.2±45.3)ml, (196.4±31.6)ml, and (6.4±0.2)days in the posterior midline group ( P<0.01). The preoperative VAS score, JOA score, NDI and Barthel index showed no significant differences between the two groups ( P>0.05). The VAS score and JOA score also showed no significant differences between the two groups at 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively or at the final follow-up ( P>0.05). The NDI and Barthel index also showed no significant differences between the two groups at 3 months postoperatively ( P>0.05). At 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up, the NDI were (15.4±2.5)points, (11.8±2.1)points and (8.6±1.5)points in the intermuscular group, significantly lower than (19.1±3.4)points, (14.3±2.4)points and (11.9±1.4)points in the posterior midline group ( P<0.01). At 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up, the Barthel index were (71.4±6.2)points, (83.4±5.8)points and (89.2±7.1)points in the intermuscular group, significantly higher than (59.6±4.7)points, (74.2±3.9)points and (78.8±6.2)points in the posterior midline group ( P<0.01). Both groups showed significant improvements in VAS score, JOA score, NDI and Barthel index at 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up when compared to those preoperatively ( P<0.05). Among them, the VAS score, NDI and Barthel index were further improved over time ( P<0.05). Simultaneously, the JOA score was significantly improved at 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up when compared to that at 3 months postoperatively ( P<0.05), with no significant difference at later time points between the two groups ( P>0.05). The preoperative cervical Cobb angle and ROM showed no significant differences between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the Cobb angle between the two groups at 3, 6 or 12 months postoperatively ( P>0.05), while it was (13.6±2.4)° in the intermuscular group at the final follow-up, significantly larger than (10.4±2.8)° in the posterior midline group ( P<0.01). At 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up, the cervical ROM were (34.1±6.4)°, (32.6±7.3)°, (31.8±9.1)° and (29.6±8.7)° in the intermuscular group, significantly larger than (23.7±8.3)°, (22.3±7.8)°, (22.5±8.1)° and (20.6±9.3)° in the posterior midline group ( P<0.01). In the intermuscular group, the cervical Cobb angle showed no significant changes at 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up when compared to those preoperatively ( P>0.05). In the posterior midline group, the Cobb angles were significantly reduced at 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up when compared to those preoperatively ( P<0.05), showing significant decrease at 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up from those at 3, 6 months postoperatively ( P<0.05), no significant difference at 6 months postoperatively from that at 3 months postoperatively ( P>0.05), and significant decrease at the final follow-up from that at 12 months postoperatively ( P>0.05). In the intermuscular group, the cervical ROM were significantly improved at 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up when compared to those preoperatively and showed further improvement over time ( P<0.05). In the posterior midline group, the cervical ROM were significantly improved at 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up when compared to those preoperatively ( P<0.05), showing significant decreases at 6, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up from that at 3 months postoperatively ( P<0.05), significant decreases at the final follow-up from those at 6, 12 months postoperatively ( P<0.05), and no significant difference at 12 months postoperatively from that at 6 months postoperatively ( P>0.05). The ASIA grades showed no significant difference between the two groups preoperatively, at 3, 12 months postoperatively and at the final follow-up ( P>0.05) , but were gradually improved over time in both groups ( P<0.05). The postoperative complication rate was 9%(6/70) in the intermuscular group, significantly lower than 48%(31/65) in the posterior midline group ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Compared to the posterior midline approach, the intermuscular approach for laminoplasty in patients with SCIWORA possesses advantages, including shorter operative time and length of hospital stay, reduced intraoperative blood loss and postoperative drainage, less postoperative neck disability, higher daily life quality, better long-term preservation of cervical lordosis and motion, and a lower complication rate.

OBJECTIVE:
This study aimed to explore the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality based on the 10-year population-based multicenter prospective study.
METHODS:
A general population-based multicenter prospective study was conducted at four sites in rural China between 2013 and 2023. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the association between BMI and mortality. Stratified analyses were performed based on the individual characteristics of the participants.
RESULTS:
Overall, 19,107 participants with a sum of 163,095 person-years were included and 1,910 participants died. The underweight (< 18.5 kg/m 2) presented an increase in all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio [ aHR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.66-2.41), while overweight (≥ 24.0 to < 28.0 kg/m 2) and obesity (≥ 28.0 kg/m 2) presented a decrease with an aHR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.52-0.73) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.37-0.70), respectively. Overweight ( aHR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.86) and mild obesity ( aHR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87) had a positive impact on mortality in people older than 60 years. All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m 2 ( aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses.
CONCLUSION
This study provides additional evidence that overweight and mild obesity may be inversely related to the risk of death in individuals older than 60 years. Therefore, it is essential to consider age differences when formulating health and weight management strategies.

The concept of harmony between heaven and man is an important concept in TCM. The theory of "harmful hyperactivity and responding inhibition" has been developed and perfected by medical professionals throughout history to explain physiological and pathological changes in humans based on a natural understanding. Guided by the TCM philosophy of "harmful hyperactivity and responding inhibition", it provides guidance for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Sorting out the complex pathogenesis, it has been found that core pathogenesis of the disease is the excessive damage to the five organs, which leads to the overall state of yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity in the human body. The treatment mainly focuses on regulating the hyperactivity and damage of the organs, restoring the balance of yin and yang, while also taking into account the harm of pathological products. Based on clinical manifestations, the secondary selection of medication for liver and liver hyperactivity and spleen and kidney dysfunction has been determined, while improving the hyperactivity of the external environment, in order to achieve the goal of "tolerance is control", which fully embodies the TCM syndrome differentiation thinking of "unity of heaven and man, holistic concept".
