Background The quality of occupational health technical services is directly linked to the protection of workers' health rights and the efficacy of occupational disease prevention and control. However, the industry still faces critical challenges: sporadic instances of institutional non-compliance and persistent irregularities in professional practice continue to undermine overall service performance. Objective To assess the current quality status of occupational health technical services in Zhejiang Province and propose countermeasures for quality improvement, providing a scientific basis for policy optimization and service delivery quality enhancement. Methods A total of 69 occupational health technical service institutions in Zhejiang Province that obtained formal accreditation as of April 30, 2024, were sampled, including 3 public institutions and 66 private institutions (comprising 3 formerly Class-A, 28 formerly Class-B, 11 formerly Class-C, and 24 newly certified institutions). Following the Technical Protocol for Quality Monitoring of Occupational Health Technical Service in Zhejiang Province and the Technical Protocol for Proficiency Testing of Occupational Health Detection in Zhejiang Province, a quality assessment task force comprising national and provincial experts was established. Evaluation was conducted across four dimensions: qualification maintenance and compliance, standardization of technical services, authenticity of technical services, and proficiency testing, utilizing a combination of document review, on-site inspections, and technical skill assessments. Results The occupational health technical service institutions in Zhejiang Province were predominantly private entities (82.5%), with significant disparities in overall service quality. The pass rates for qualification maintenance and compliance, technical service standardization, technical service authenticity, and the excellence rate for laboratory proficiency testing were 81.5%, 80.7%, 97.3%, and 90.4%, respectively. Regarding qualification maintenance, the pass rates for "environmental conditions" (49.8%, 56.7%) and "instrumentation and equipment" (58.2%、65.6%) were significantly lower for formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions compared to other categories. In terms of technical standardization, "standardized on-site inspections" recorded the lowest pass rate (67.4%), with newly certified institutions at only 48.0%. Regarding technical service authenticity, formerly Class-C institutions exhibited issues such as missing raw chromatograms for blank samples (85.7% pass rate). In laboratory proficiency testing, public and formerly Class-A institutions achieved 100% excellence rates, but the performance of formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions was comparatively weak; specifically, the failure rate for organic analysis in formerly Class-C institutions reached 20%; the failure rate for dust testing items in newly certified institutions was 10.3%. Conclusion The overall quality of occupational health technical services in Zhejiang Province still requires significant improvement, particularly in basic institutional conditions, the standardization of on-site inspections, and laboratory proficiency in organic and dust analysis. Formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions should be the primary focus of quality management efforts. Differentiated regulatory strategies are recommended, alongside strengthening interim and ex-post supervision to gradually enhance the quality of occupational health technical services across all institutions.

Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3(SOCS3),a member of SOCS family,plays a major role in cell signaling trans-duction.SOCS3 is important in regulation of immune homeostasis and also involved in the control of energy metabolism,mainly through regulating JAK/STAT pathway.Recent studies have shown that SOCS3 was closely associated with glycolipid metabolic diseases like diabetes and obesity,and can be used as a new target for treatment of these glycolipid metabolic diseases.This review focuses on the latest research progress of the role and mechanism of SOCS3 in glycolipid metabolic diseases,and discusses the possibility of SOCS3 as a therapeutic target for glycolipid metabolic diseases.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and underlying mechanisms of endoscopic sinus surgery(ESS)combined with budesonide nasal spray in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps(CRSwNP),with a focus on its effects on symptom control,nasal mucosal function repair,immune regulation,and recurrence rate.Methods:A total of 110 patients with CRSwNP were randomly divided into a matched group(60 cases,receiving ESS alone)and an observation group(50 cases,receiving ESS followed by 6 months of postoperative budesonide nasal spray).The Lund-Kennedy score,Visual Analog Scale(VAS)score for symptoms,nasal mucociliary clearance rate(MTR),nasal mucosal T-cell subsets(CD4+/CD8+),inflammatory factors(TGF-β1,VEGF),serum marker(IL-3,IL-4,IL-5,IL-13,TSLP)and complications,recurrence rate(6 months and 12 months)were compared between the two groups before surgery and at 3 and 6 months postoperatively.Results:At 3 months postoperatively,the VAS scores for nasal obstruction,hyposmia,and facial pain in the observation group were lower than those in the matched group(0.76±0.21 vs 1.26±0.34,0.88±0.17 vs 1.48±0.33,0.37±0.07 vs 0.55±0.11,all P＜0.001).At 6 months postoperatively,the Lund-Kennedy score(1.34±0.31 vs 1.65±0.33)and MTR(7.53±1.67 vs 6.54±1.39 mm/min)in the observation group were superior to those in the matched group(both P＜0.05).The CD4+/CD8+ratio(1.03±0.17 vs 0.87±0.14)and TGF-β1 levels(568.33±75.48 vs 506.27±72.87 μg/L)were higher,while VEGF levels(145.95±27.94 vs 178.33±36.37 ng/L)were lower in the observation group(all P＜0.001).At 6 months after surgery,the levels of IL-4,IL-5,IL-13,and TSLP were lower than those in the matched group(P＜0.05).The complication rate(8.00％vs 16.67％)and recurrence rate(4.00％vs 18.33％)in the observation group were lower than those in the matched group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:ESS combined with budesonide can significantly alleviate CRSwNP symptoms and reduce the risk of recurrence by inhibiting Th2-type inflammatory responses,regulating T-cell immune balance,improving ciliary function,and suppressing angiogenesis.The synergistic mechanism involves the dynamic regulation of inflammatory microenvironment remodeling and mucosal repair,demonstrating significant clinical efficacy and safety.This study is the first to propose a postoperative management strategy that integrates mucosal repair,Th2 suppression,and inflammatory remodeling,filling a gap in research on postoperative immune microenvironment regulation.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

The aim of this updated guideline is to provide comprehensive recommendations for the management of gout in patients with common comorbidities, such as chronic kidney disease(CKD), cardiovascular disease(CVD), diabetes, osteoarthritis(OA), and gastrointestinal disorders. This guideline was developed by a multidisciplinary expert panel consisting of specialists in endocrinology, rheumatology, nephrology, cardiology, gastroenterology, and methodology. The development process adhered to standard methodologies, including PICO(population, intervention, comparator, and outcomes) question deconstruction, systematic literature review, the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation(GRADE) for evidence and recommendation evaluation, Delphi voting, and expert consensus. The guideline presents 26 evidence-based recommendations addressing 7 clinical questions for patients with hyperuricemia and gout in the context of comorbidities. Key recommendations include the maintenance of strict serum urate targets, particularly for patients with CKD stage≥3, chronic gouty arthritis, and OA, in order to prevent disease progression. In patients with CVD or diabetes, intra-articular triamcinolone is preferred over systemic glucocorticoids. Prioritized anti-inflammatory treatments for patients with CKD, gastrointestinal diseases and OA are recommended. The guideline also introduces emerging therapies, such as interleukin-1 inhibitors and selective urate transport inhibitors, as potential treatment options for refractory cases. The update offers a comprehensive, patient-centered approach to managing gout, particularly in individuals with associated comorbidities. Multidisciplinary collaboration and emerging new treatments and evidence ensure the optimization of the recommendations.

Isoflavones which mainly distributed in leguminous plants have plenty of health benefits.Isoflavone synthase(IFS)is a membrane-associated cytochrome P450 enzyme(CYP450)which carries out the unique aryl-ring migration and hydroxylation.So far,few crystal structures of plant P450s have been obtained.We determined the crystal structure of IFS from Medicago truncatula at 1.9 ? by MAD method using a selenomethionine substituted crystal and conducted molecular docking and mutagenesis study.The structure of IFS complexed with imidazole exhibits the helix Ⅰa-loop-helix Ⅰβ motif which cor-responds to helix Ⅰ of other P450s.Compared with structures of common P450s,IFS/imidazole structure contains an extra domain,i.e.,the γ-domain.The structure reveals a homodimer in which the γ-domain of one molecule interacts with the β-domain of another.The plane of heme group makes an angle of ap-proximately 40° with the helix Ⅰa-loop-helix Ⅰβ motif.Molecular docking combined with mutagenesis study suggested that Trp-128 and Asp-300 might play important roles in substrate binding and recogni-tion.Phe-301,Ser-303 and Gly-305 from the helix Ⅰa-loop-helix Ⅰβ motif may play important roles in the aryl-ring migration.These novel structural features reveal insights into the unique reaction mechanism of IFS and provide a basis for engineering IFS in leguminous crops for health purpose.
