Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the V-shaped bone tunnel technique at the base of the distal phalanx for treating tendinous mallet finger.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data from patients with tendinous mallet finger treated in the Department of Hand and Foot Surgery at Linyi People’s Hospital between August 2022 and November 2023. Two oblique bone tunnels were created in a V-shaped configuration at the dorsal base of the distal phalanx, adjacent to the extensor tendon insertion, using a 0.8 mm Kirschner wire. A 4-0 double-needle monofilament tendon suture was passed through the tunnels to secure the ruptured extensor tendon to the base of the distal phalanx, followed by fixation of the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint with a 1.0 mm Kirschner wire. The Kirschner wire was removed at 4 weeks postoperatively to initiate functional exercises. Regular follow-up was conducted to monitor wound healing and functional recovery of the DIP joint. At the final follow-up, the range of flexion and extension of the DIP joint was measured, and treatment outcomes were evaluated using Crawford’s mallet finger evaluation criteria, which classified results into four grades: excellent, good, fair, and poor.Results:Fifteen patients (16 fingers) were included, comprising 11 males and 4 females, with a mean age of 44.5 years (range: 17-65 years). The injured fingers included 2 index, 4 middle, 5 ring, and 5 little fingers, all presenting with DIP joint flexion deformity and limited active extension. Postoperative follow-up ranged from 6 to 28 months (mean: 17 months). All wounds healed primarily without complications such as infection or skin necrosis, and no cases of tendon re-rupture occurred. At the final follow-up, the measurement results of flexion and extension range of motion of the affected fingers at the DIP joint were as follows: the maximum flexion angle of all 16 fingers was 45°, among which 7 fingers had an extension angle of 0°, 8 fingers had limited extension ranging from 1° to 10°, and 1 finger had limited extension of 15°. Among the 16 fingers, 7 fingers were rated as excellent, 8 fingers as good and 1 finger as fair.Conclusion:The V-shaped bone tunnel technique for tendon-to-bone reattachment of the extensor tendon insertion is a simple and effective method for treating tendinous mallet finger. It provides satisfactory functional recovery, improves finger appearance, and is associated with minimal complications.

Objective:To explore the occupational stress status and influencing factors of workers in a textile factory in Zhejiang Provice.Methods:In October 2018, 505 workers from a textile factory in Zhejiang Province were selected as research objects by convenient sampling method. A total of 505 questionnaires were distributed, 495 of which were effective and the effective recovery rate was 98.0%. Job Content Questionnaire (JCQ) and Effort Reward Imbalance Questionnaire (REI) were used to investigate textile workers' occupational stress and analyze its influencing factors. The differences of the composition ratio of different groups were tested by χ 2 test. The influencing factors such as age, gender and occupation on occupational stress were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. Results:ERI analysis results showed that the high and low occupational stress accounted for 30.1% and 69.9%, respectively. The differences of occupational stress among workers of different job types and working ages were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The detection rates of high occupational stress of paper workers and spinners were 47.8% (11/23) and 44.8% (30/67) , respectively, higher than other jobs. The detection rate of high occupational stress for workers with more than 5 years of service was 46.4% (13/28) . The results of JCQ analysis showed that there was no statistical significance in the differences of daily working hours and length of service between different gender, education levels, types of work patterns, and occupational stress ( P>0.05) . Job types had significant effects on the occupational stress defined by ERI ( P<0.05) , the risk of occupational stress was 2.151 times than that of the coiler. Conclusion:There are significant differences in occupational stress risk among workers of different types of work in textile industry, so different measures should be taken to prevent and control occupational stress in different jobs.

Objective:
To analyze the mental health status and its impact factors among nurses, finding ways to improve the mental health of nurses.
Methods:
A total of 13 425 female healthcare workers aged from 18 to 65 were selected as study objects. The survey was conducted with unified design questionnaire. The survey included the basic situation of the individuals and SCL-90 questionnaire. Comparing the female doctors, the mental health status and its impact factors of nurses were analyzed.
Results:
The income, age, education and occupation, which include shift work, heavy work load and overtime work are different between nurses and doctors. The main mental health problems of nurses were obsessive-compulsive symptoms, depressive symptoms and somatization. The results of univariate analysis indicated that shift work, overtime work, and heavy work load affected the positive rate of each factor. The results of multivariate analysis showed that occupation, shift work, overtime work, and heavy work load have significant adverse effects on the positive rate of the total score in female healthcare workers (
