Task performance is an important concern in ergonomics. Task performance is often affected by adverse ergonomic factors, resulting in health and economic losses. How to utilize effective indicators to evaluate the degree of impact of adverse ergonomic factors on workers' task performance is particularly important. In this paper, we conducted a literature review and analysis on the impact of adverse ergonomic factors on workers' task performance, focusing on summarizing available physiological, psychological, and neurocognitive behavioral function test indicators for evaluating workers' task performance. This summary of existing evaluation indicators provided reference and guidance for future evaluations of the impact of adverse ergonomic factors on workers' task performance.

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of Zuogui Jiangtang Jieyu Formula(ZGJTJYF)in treating diabetes-related depression by regulating glutamate receptor 2(GluR2).Methods The primary isolated and cultured hippocampal neurons of SD rats were used.The experiment consisted of normal,model,blank serum(10％blank serum),positive drug(10％[metformin+fluoxetine]drug-containing serum),20％ZGJTJYF group,10％ZGJTJYF group,10％ZGJTJYF+GluR2 knockdown group,and 10％ZGJTJYF+GluR2 overexpression group(with corresponding volume fractions of ZGJTJYF drug-containing serum added).The ZGJTJYF+GluR2 knockdown and overexpression groups,were transfected with lentivirus to obtain hippocampal neurons with either GluR2 overexpression or knockdown.The glucose(150 mmol/L)and corticosterone(200 μmol/L)were used for 18 h to establish an in vitro cell model of hippocampal neurons in diabetes-related depression.After 24 h of successful modeling,the corresponding serum was added to each group for intervention.After 24 h of intervention,the morphological structure of hippocampal neurons was observed using an optical microscope.Biochemical methods were used to determine the glucose and insulin content in cell supernatant.An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)and dopamine(DA)levels in the cell supernatant,and the microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B light chain 3 autophagy double-labeled adenovirus(mRFP-GFP-LC3)autophagy fluorescence double labeling method was used to detect the average fluorescence intensity of LC3 protein in hippocampal neurons.Nissl staining was used to observe synaptic damage in hippocampal neurons,and an immunofluorescence method was used to detect the protein expression of Parkin,phosphatase and tensin homolog-induced putative kinase 1(PINK1),regulating synaptic membrane exocytosis 3(RIMS3),synapsin 1(SYN1),postsynaptic density-95(PSD-95),synapse-associated protein 102(SAP 102),and GluR2 in hippocampal neurons.Realtime fluorescence PCR was used to detect GluR2 mRNA expression in hippocampal neurons,while Western blotting was employed to assess the expression of mitophagy proteins Parkin and PINK1 in these neurons.Results Compared to the normal group,the model group and blank serum group showed structural damage to hippocampal neurons,increased glucose content in cell supernatant,decreased insulin,5-HT,and DA content,increased average fluorescence intensity of LC3,Parkin,and PINK1,decreased average fluorescence intensity of RIMS3,SYN1,PSD-95,SAP 102,and GluR2,decreased GluR2 mRNA expression,increased protein expression of Parkin and PINK1(P＜0.05),and decreased Nissl bodies.Compared to the model group and blank serum group,the above indicators in each administration group were improved to varying degrees(P＜0.05).Compared to the positive drug group,the average fluorescence intensity of LC3,Parkin,and PINK1 decreased,Parkin and PINK1 protein expression decreased,and the average fluorescence intensity of GluR2,SYN1,and PSD-95 increased in 10％ZGJTJYF,20％ZGJTJYF group,and 10％ZGJTJYF+GluR2 overexpression group(P＜0.05).Compared to 10％and 20％ZGJTJYF groups,10％ZGJTJYF+GluR2 knockdown group showed a decrease in 5-HT content,an increase in average fluorescence intensity of LC3 and Parkin,a decrease in average fluorescence intensity of SYN1,PSD-95,and GluR2,a decreased in GluR2 mRNA expression,and an increase of Parkin and PINK1 protein expression(P＜0.05).In contrast,the above indicators were improved to varying degrees in 10％ZGJTJYF+GluR2 overexpression group(P＜0.05).Compared to 10％ZGJTJYF+GluR2 knockdown group,the above abnormal indicators in 10％ZGJTJYF+GluR2 overexpression group were reversed to varying degrees(P＜0.05).Conclusion ZGJTJYF has a protective effect on synaptic damage of hippocampal neurons in diabetes-related depression,and its mechanism may be related to the upregulation of GluR2 and the inhibition of mitophagy over activation.

ObjectiveTo reveal the mechanism of Zuogui Jiangtang Jieyu prescription against damage to hippocampal synaptic microenvironment via suppressing glutamate receptor 2 （GluR2）/Parkin signal-mediated mitophagy in rats with diabetes-related depression （DD）. MethodsEighty male SD rats underwent adaptive feeding for 5 days before the study. Ten rats were randomly assigned to the normal group. The model of DD rats was established with the rest by 2-week high-fat diet + streptozotocin （STZ） tail intravenous injection + 28 days of chronic unpredictable mild stress （CUMS） combined with isolation. The rats were randomly divided into a normal group， a model group， a GluR2 blocker group （5 μg·kg^-1）， a GluR2 agonist group （10 μg·kg^-1）， a metformin + fluoxetine group （0.18 g·kg^-1 metformin + 1.8 mg·kg^-1 fluoxetine）， and high- and low-dose Zuogui Jiangtang Jieyu prescription groups （20.52 and 10.26 g·kg^-1， respectively）. The rats in the GluR2 blocker group and the GluR2 agonist group were continuously injected with CNQX and Cl-HIBO in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus once a week starting from stress modeling， respectively， while the metformin + fluoxetine group and the high- and low-dose Zuogui Jiangtang Jieyu prescription groups were continuously given intragastric administration for 28 d at the same time of stress modeling. Depression-like behavior was evaluated by open field and forced swimming experiments. The levels of serum insulin and adenosine triphosphate （ATP） in hippocampus were detected by biochemical analysis. The levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine （5-HT） and dopamine （DA） in hippocampus were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The autophagosomes of hippocampal neurons were observed by transmission electron microscopy. The morphology and structure of dendrites and spines of hippocampal neurons were evaluated by Golgi staining. Western blot detected the expression levels of GluR2 and Parkin proteins in hippocampus. The expression levels of GluR2， Parkin， regulating synaptic membrane exocytosis protein 3 （RIMS3）， and postsynaptic density protein 95 （PSD95） in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus were detected by immunofluorescence. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group exhibited reduced total activity distance in the open field and increased immobility time in forced swimming （P<0.01）， lowered levels of serum insulin and ATP， 5-HT， and DA in hippocampus （P<0.01）， increased autophagosomes of hippocampal neurons， significantly damaged morphology and structure of dendrites and spines of hippocampal neurons， decreased expression levels of GluR2， RIMS3， and PSD95 in hippocampus， and an increased Parkin expression level （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the GluR2 blocker group and the GluR2 agonist group showed aggravation and alleviation of the above abnormal changes， respectively （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The above depression-like behavior was significantly improved in the high- and low-dose Zuogui Jiangtang Jieyu prescription groups to different degrees. Specifically， the two groups saw elevated levels of serum insulin and ATP， 5-HT， and DA in hippocampus （P<0.05， P<0.01）， restrained increase in autophagosomes and damage to morphology and structure of dendrites and spines of hippocampal neurons， up-regulated protein expression levels of GluR2， RIMS3， and PSD95， and down-regulated Parkin expression level （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionZuogui Jiangtong Jieyu prescription can ameliorate the mitophagy-mediated damage to hippocampal synaptic microenvironment in DD rats， the mechanism of which might be related to the regulation of GluR2/Parkin signaling pathway.

Mannheimia varigena(M.varigena)is a significant pathogen causing bovine respiratory disease.Transferrin binding protein B(TbpB)is a lipoprotein directly exposed to the outer mem-brane of the cell,which is not only involved in the bacterial iron metabolism pathway,but also an important virulence factor.This study aims to lay the groundwork for developing novel subunit vaccines by conducting site-directed mutagenesis on M.varigena TbpB binding-related residues and evaluating their immunogenicity.Based on whole-genome sequencing of a bovine M.varigena i-solate,its iron uptake pathway was predicted.Key amino acid residues of M.varigena TbpB that play a role for binding to bovine transferrin(bTf)was identified by bioinformatics.We constructed two M.varigena TbpB mutants(Y205A and Y258A)and assessed their bTf binding activity and immunogenicity through dot blot assays and mouse immunization studies.Dot blot assays result showed that the Y258A mutation caused TbpB to lose its ability to bind to bTf.Mouse immuniza-tion studies showed that,compared to wild-type TbpB,the mutants of TbpB induced higher levels of specific antibodies.In challenge experiments,mice immunized with mutant TbpB exhibited high-er survival rates.These results demonstrate that site-directed mutagenesis can enhance the immu-nogenicity of TbpB.This study provides a novel approach for developing new subunit vaccines a-gainst M.varigena.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a chronic interstitial lung disease, is characterized by aberrant wound healing, excessive scarring and the formation of myofibroblastic foci. Although the role of alternative splicing (AS) in the pathogenesis of organ fibrosis has garnered increasing attention, its specific contribution to pulmonary fibrosis remains incompletely understood. In this study, we identified an up-regulation of serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 7 (SRSF7) in lung fibroblasts derived from IPF patients and a bleomycin (BLM)-induced mouse model, and further characterized its functional role in both human fetal lung fibroblasts and mice. We demonstrated that enhanced expression of Srsf7 in mice spontaneously induced alveolar collagen accumulation. Mechanistically, we investigated alternative splicing events and revealed that SRSF7 modulates the alternative splicing of pyruvate kinase (PKM), leading to metabolic dysregulation and fibroblast activation. In vivo studies showed that fibroblast-specific knockout of Srsf7 in conditional knockout mice conferred resistance to bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Importantly, through drug screening, we identified lomitapide as a novel modulator of SRSF7, which effectively mitigated experimental pulmonary fibrosis. Collectively, our findings elucidate a molecular pathway by which SRSF7 drives fibroblast metabolic dysregulation and propose a potential therapeutic strategy for pulmonary fibrosis.

Acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture (ASOTLF) can lead to chronic low back pain, kyphosis deformity, pulmonary dysfunction, loss of mobility, and even life-threatening complications. Vertebral augmentation is currently the mainstream treatment method for this condition. In 2019, the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma and the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association collaboratively led the development of Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation for acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Six years later, with advances in clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques as well as accumulating evidence in related fields, the 2019 guideline requires updating. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, the Spinal Health Professional Committee of China Human Health Science and Technology Promotion Association, and the Minimally Invasive Orthopedics Professional Committee of Shaanxi Medical Doctor Association have organized experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation of acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025) , based on the latest evidence-based medical researches. This guideline incorporates 3 recommendations retained from the 2019 version with updated strength of evidence, along with 12 new recommendations. It provides recommendations from six aspects of diagnosis, pain management, treatment option selection, prevention of postoperative complications, anti-osteoporosis therapy, and postoperative rehabilitation, aiming to provide a reference for standard treatment of vertebral augmentation for ASOTLF in hospitals at all levels.

ObjectiveTo explore the potential mechanism of Zuogui Jiangtang Jieyu Formula （左归降糖解郁方， ZJJF） for diabetic rats with depression. MethodsSixty rats were randomly divided into normal group， model group， wingless MMTV integration site family member 5a （Wnt5a） agonist group， ZJJF group， and ZJJF plus Wnt5a inhibitor group， with 12 rats in each group. Except for the normal group， the rats were fed with high-fat chow， streptozotocin injection， and chronic mild unpredictable stress combination， to establish model of diabetes mellitus complicated with depression. After successful modelling， rats in the Wnt5a agonist group were given bilateral hippocampal stereotactic injections of Wnt5a agonist Foxy-5 with 5 μl each for 7 consecutive days； rats in ZJJF group were given 20.52 g/（kg·d） of ZJJF by gavage； rats in ZJJF plus Wnt5a inhibitor group were given the drug by gavage， and bilateral hippocampal stereotactic injections of Wnt5a inhibitors Box5， with the same dosage and injection method as above. The normal group and model group were given 10 ml/（kg·d） of normal saline by gavage. All groups were gavaged for 4 consecutive weeks. At the end of the intervention， the depression-like behaviour of rats was evaluated using the forced swimming experiment （immobility time） and the absent field experiment （number of activities）； the blood glucose and insulin levels of rats were measured and the insulin resistance index was calculated； the dendritic morphology of dentate gyrus neurons in the hippocampus was observed using Golgi staining； the level of dentate gyrus neuron proliferation was measured using 5-bromodeoxyuracil nucleoside （Brdu） injection and immunofluorescence； RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of Wnt5a， Ras homologue genomic member A （RhoA） and Rho homologue-associated coiled-coil protein kinase 1 （ROCK1） in the dentate gyrus. ResultsCompared with the normal group， rats in the model group had significantly higher blood glucose， insulin and insulin resistance indices， longer immobility time， fewer activities， lower Brdu integral optical density values and Wnt5a， RhoA， ROCK1 protein and mRNA expression in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus （P＜0.05 or P＜ 0.01）； the dendritic branches of rat hippocampal dentate gyrus neurons could be seen to be significantly reduced or broken， and their length shortened. Compared with the model group， the blood glucose， insulin and insulin resistance indices of rats in ZJJF group and the ZJJF plus Wnt5a inhibitor group significantly reduced （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； the immobility time of rats in the Wnt5a agonist group and ZJJF group was significantly shortened， the number of activities increased， the Brdu integral optical density values elevated， and the Wnt5a， RhoA， ROCK1 protein and mRNA expression elevated （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， and the number of dendritic branches of hippocampal dentate gyrus neurons significantly increased， the length lengthened， and the complexity of dendrites increased. Compared with the Wnt5a agonist group， rats in the ZJJF group showed significant decrease in blood glucose， insulin and insulin resistance indices， prolongation of immobilisation time， reduction in the number of activities， and reduction in the Brdu integral optical density value； except for the Wnt5a mRNA in ZJJF group， Wnt5a， RhoA， ROCK1 protein and mRNA expression reduced in both ZJJF group and ZJJF plus Wnt5a inhibitor group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with ZJJF group， Wnt5a， RhoA， ROCK1 protein and mRNA expression were reduced in ZJJF plus Wnt5a inhibitor group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionZJJF can improve hyperglycemia and depressive-like behaviours in rat models of diabetes with depression， and its antidepressant effects may be related to the activation of hippocampal Wnt5a/RhoA signaling and promotion of dentate gyrus neuron dendritic growth.
