Background With the unprecedented development of aviation business, the work load and job burnout of airport employees are becoming more and more serious, and the impact on sleep quality needs to be addressed. Objective To explore the current situation of work load and sleep quality of airport employees, and whether job burnout plays a role in the relationship between the two variables. Methods During September 2023, a cross-sectional survey was conducted among employees of an airport in Hunan Province, and 1503 employees were surveyed. A basic information questionnaire, a work load measurement questionnaire, Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index were used in the survey. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of sleep quality. SPSS 25.0 PROCESS v4.1 plug-in was used to analyze the mediating effect of job burnout. Results A total of 1503 questionnaires were distributed in this study, and 1424 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a recovery rate of 94.7%. The rate of heavy work load was 50.0% (712/1424), the rate of job burnout was 74.6% (1062/1424), and the rate of sleep disorders was 58.7% (836/1424). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that individuals with job burnout had a 1.734 times higher risk of reporting sleep disorders compared to those without job burnout (95% CI: 1.306, 2.302); compared to those with light work load, individuals with heavy work load have a higher risk of sleep disorders (OR=3.422, 95%CI: 2.639, 4.437). The results of mediating effect test indicated a work load-burnout-sleep quality pathway (P <0.001), with a mediation effect value of 0.1052 (95%CI: 0.019, 0.067), accounting for 18.02% of the total effect. Conclusion The rate of job burnout and the rate of reporting poor sleep quality are high among airport employees, and job burnout plays a mediating role in the relationship between work load and sleep quality. Adopting measures to reduce work load and reduce burnout can improve the sleep quality of airport employees.

Objective To investigate the expression levels and mutation status of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha(PIK3CA)in endometrial cancer(EC)and evaluate its association with lymph node metastasis in EC.Methods We retrosepctively collected and analyzed EC genetic mutation testing data submitted to the Molecular Detection Center,The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between July 2020 and June 2022.The mutation rate of PIK3CA gene was calculated based on the sequencing results of EC patients,and the correlation between PIK3CA mutations and clinical pathological parameters,as well as protein expression consistency,was analyzed accordingly.Results A total of 97 EC patients were enrolled in this study,and PIK3CA mutations were identified in approximately 48.5％(47 out of 97 cases).The rate of lymph node metastasis in patients with PIK3CA mutations was higher than that in patients with wild-type PIK3CA(21.3％vs.6.0％,P=0.027).Findings from univariate and multivariate logistic analyses indicated that histological subtype Ⅱ(odds ratio[OR]=5.51;95％CI,1.08-28.06;P=0.040),positive result for lymphovascular space invasion(LVSI)(OR=7.96;95％CI,1.37-46.44;P=0.021),and PIK3CA mutation(OR=8.58;95％CI,1.51-48.84;P=0.015)were independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis in EC.In addition,the receiver-operating characteristic(ROC)curves demonstrated that the combined use of clinicopathological parameters and PIK3CA mutations could more accurately predict lymph node metastasis in EC,with an area under the curve of 0.824(95％CI,0.678-0.970).It is noteworthy that there was a high consistency between PIK3CA mutations and its protein expression,and EC patients with positive expression of PIK3CA protein had a higher rate of lymph node metastasis(53.8％vs.9.1％,P=0.078).Conclusion PIK3CA somatic mutations are strongly correlated with lymph node metastasis in EC.

OBJECTIVE To establish a quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker （QAMS） method for simultaneous determination of six flavonoids and two phenolic acids in Perilla frutescens leaves using scutellarin and rosmarinic acid as internal reference substances， and apply this method to determine the contents of eight components in 20 batches of P. frutescens leaves samples from different regions. METHODS Scutellarin served as the internal reference to calculate relative correction factors （RCFs） for scutellarin-7-O-diglucuronide， luteolin-7-O-diglucuronide， apigenin-7-O-diglucuronide， luteolin-7-O- β-D-glucuronide and apigenin-7-O-glucuronide. Rosmarinic acid was employed as the internal reference to determine the RCF for caffeic acid. The contents of the above flavonoids and phenolic acids were calculated with QAMS， and compared with the results of external standard method. RESULTS The eight analytes demonstrated excellent linearity within their respective concentration ranges （r≥0.999 0）. The mean recovery rates for spiked samples ranged from 95.60% to 102.15%， with relative standard deviations （RSDs） of 0.72% to 2.70% （n＝6）. The method exhibited good precision， repeatability， and stability （RSD＜2.50%， n＝6）. Variations in instruments， columns， column temperature， flow rate， and formic acid volume fraction had minimal impact on the RCFs （RSD＜3%， n＝3）. Comparison with the external standard method showed no significant differences in the content of each component across batches， except for caffeic acid in the ZS12 batch （absolute value of RE＜5%， n＝2）. The contents of six CARS-21） flavonoid components in P. frutescens leaves samples varied significantly across different geographic origins， while the content of total flavonoids showed no significant difference. In contrast， the contents of two phenolic acid components and total phenolic acid exhibited significant variation among samples from different regions. CONCLUSIONS The developed QAMS method can simultaneously determine the contents of six flavonoids and two phenolic acids in P. frutescens leaves. It is convenient for detection， highly accurate， and cost-effective. This method is suitable for the quality control of P. frutescens leaves， and the variation of flavonoid and phenolic acid content in samples from different regions provides a reference for the selection of optimal cultivation areas.

Objective:To investigate the factors influencing sound localization in patients with unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss, so as to provide the reference for hearing rehabilitation of patients with unilateral sudden hearing loss.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study that retrospectively analyzed the clinical data and audiological examination results of 228 patients with unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss(103 males and 125 females; aged from 18 to 80 years, with an average age of 46.2 years; 107 cases in the left ear and 121 cases in the right ear; 8 cases of low-frequency decline type, 42 cases of high-frequency decline type, 92 cases of flat decline type, and 86 cases of total deafness type)at the Eye and ENT Hospital of Fudan University from June 2023 to April 2024. The minimum audible angle (MAA) was calculated by the angle discrimination test of 1000 Hz and 4000 Hz warble tones, which were recorded as MAA 1 000 and MAA 4 000 according to the frequency of the given sound stimulus. The root mean square error (RMSE) was calculated by the angle recognition test with daily natural sounds as the stimulus sound. Using SPSS 27.0 statistical software, correlation and multiple regression analysis were used to research the clinical factors affecting the ability of sound localization in patients with unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss. Results:The mean MAA 1 000, MAA 4 000, RMSE of patients with unilateral sudden deafness were (53.97±29.14)°, (46.34±28.87)° and (30.06±13.64)°, respectively. Univariate analysis of variance revealed that there were significant differences between different classifications of sudden sensorineural hearing loss for sound localization tests (MAA 1 000: F=6.338, P<0.001,MAA 4 000: F=14.334, P<0.001,RMSE: F=49.918, P<0.001), post-hoc analysis observed that all significant contrasts were included the type of total deafness and low-frequency deafness. Correlation analysis showed the age of subjects in this study was weak positively correlated to the MAA 1 000 ( r=0.165, P=0.013), the duration of sudden sensorineural hearing loss was weak negatively related to RMSE ( r=-0.144, P=0.030), there were significant positive relationships between the threshold of PTA, PTA 1kHz, PTA 4kHz for the affected side, as well as the binaural PTA difference and sound localization test (MAA 1 000,MAA 4 000,RMSE) (all P<0.001). The multiple regression analysis showed the age and the binaural PTA difference for the affected side were the significant factors for the MAA 1 000 and MAA 4 000, the binaural PTA difference was the significant factors for the RMSE. The R 2 of multivariable linear regression model for MAA 1 000, MAA 4 000 and RMSE results in unilateral sudden deafness patients were 0.149, 0.207 and 0.553, respectively. Conclusion:Age, the hearing of the affected side, and binaural PTA difference are the significant factors for sound localization ability in patients with unilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss, hearing compensation of the affected ear for these patients is hopeful to enhance the sound localization ability.
