In recent years,the incidence rate of type 1 diabetes is on the rise.The causes of the disease are extremely complex,and the pathogenesis has not yet been fully clarified.Different types of studies have confirmed that the occurrence and evolution of type 1 diabetes is a typical process of polygene,multifactor,multi-stage and multi-channel,which is considered to be caused by the combined effect of genetic and environ-mental factors.At present,it is believed that environmental factors are related to the interaction of infection factors,diet factors,early exposure events,intestinal flora,immune factors,other factors and genetic factors.This article reviews the research on environmental factors of type 1 diabetes in recent years.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of toxic substances determination standards in workplaces in China, in order to provide basis for further development of national occupational health standards.Methods:In November 2023, Used descriptive analysis methods, conduct a characteristic analysis of the toxic substance determination standards for workplaces in China issued between 2004 and 2024, including the first drafting situation, standard formulation/revision situation, standard determination methods types, and method performance indicators.Results:The The first drafting unit in the GBZ/T 160 and GBZ/T 300 standards that have been issued is mainly composed of disease prevention and control centers (154, accounting for 60.6%) and the hospital of Occupational disease prevention and control (154, accounting for 60.6%). The regional distribution is North China (65 items, accounting for 25.6%), East China (60 items, accounting for 23.7%), and South China (51 items, accounting for 20.2%). 93.1% of the standards were published between 2004 and 2017; Covering 671 measurement methods.The method types are gas chromatography (367, 54.7%), spectrophotometry (98, 14.6%), inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (54, 8.0%), etc. The missing items of standard performance indexes mainly focus on penetration capacity, recovery rate and detection limit. The missing items of penetration capacity and recovery rate are mainly distributed in gas chromatography methods; The missing detection limits and minimum detection concentrations are mainly distributed in spectrophotometry and gas chromatography method.Conclusion:Suggest accelerating the update speed of toxic substance determination standards in the workplace, supplementing the supporting determination methods in GBZ 2.1 standard, focusing on solving common problems in existing standards, gradually improving the standards for missing performance indicators, and gradually carrying out national standard transformation in a hierarchical and phased manner for local or group standards with good practical applications.

Objective To identify the core constitutions and prodromal symptoms of relapse in schizophrenia patients using network analysis,and to analyze their relationships as well as gender differences.Methods Schizophrenia patients hospitalized in the psychiatry department of Hunan Brain Hospital in Hunan Province between October 2022 and December 2023 were selected as survey participants.A general information questionnaire,a Traditional Chinese Medicine Constitution Scale,and a Schizophrenia Prodromal Symptoms of Relapse Scale were used for investigation.Network anal-ysis was conducted using R language.Results The core constitutions of schizophrenia patients were qi deficiency constitution[Expected Influence(EI)=1.08]and dampness-heat constitution(EI=1.00),and the core prodromal symptoms of relapse were depression/withdrawal(EI=0.84)and ini-tial psychotic manifestations(EI=0.81).There were statistically significant differences in constitutions of traditional Chinese medicine and prodromal symptoms of relapse between patients of different genders(P<0.05).Females mainly exhibited qi deficiency constitution(EI=1.20)with anxiety as the core prodromal symptom(EI=0.98),while males mainly exhibited yin deficiency constitution(EI=1.05)with depression/withdrawal as the core prodromal symptom(EI=1.00).Conclusion Healthcare professionals can early identify core prodromal symptoms of relapse by core imbalanced constitutions of schizophrenia patients,and develop precise intervention strategies,thereby promoting changes in their network structure,preventing disease relapse,and improving patients'quality of life.

To summarize the problems and improvement suggestions in the implementation of GBZ158, the focus groups interview was used to interview industry experts from CDC, Occupational disease prevention and control hospital institutes, employers, third d dd鄄party technical service institutions and universities, and extract their opinions on the problems and improvement suggestions in the implementation of the standard. The operability of GBZ 158 is not strong, and there is a certain overlap with the signs in the fields of firefighting, safety and other fields. It urgently needs to be modified to comply with the reality of occupational health management in China. There are many and concentrated revision opinions on "6. Notification Cards for Occupational Hazards of Toxic Substance in Workplaces" and "7. Setting of Warning Signs in Workplaces with Toxic Substances". It is concluded that Some technical indicators of GBZ 158 have not been according with the current actual work of occupational health, and need to be revised and improved urgently, which includes enhancing the coordination with standards in the fields of firefighting and safety, supplementing normative reference documents, clarifying the setting conditions, scope of use, and application examples of warning signs of occupational hazards.

Objective:By systematically evaluate the implementation of GBZ 2.1, so as to provide technical basis for the future revisions of this standard.Methods:From May to October 2023, Based on the pre survey questionnaire, the semi-structured interview method was used to interviews with experts from CDC, Occupational disease prevention and control hospital institutes, employers, occupational hygiene technical service intermediaries and universities, and the inductive method was used to extract the topics and relevant suggestions.Results:Generally, GBZ 2.1 is scientific, practical, progressiveness and operable. There are still some issues such as OELs overlapping and the correspondence between Chinese and English names. The outstanding problem is the coordination with other standard contents.Conclusion:The technical indicators in GBZ 2.1 could adapt to the needs of current practical work. The coordination between standards needs to be clarified, and the new recommended content needs further promotion and exploration on how to implement it.

Objective:To investigate the association of urinary cadmium levels with peripheral leukocyte classification counts among middle-aged and older adults aged 40 to 89 years in selected areas of China.Methods:The research was based on the survey of the impact of soil quality of agricultural land on human health in typical areas conducted in 2019-2020. A total of 5 600 middle-aged and older adults aged 40 to 89 years were included by using a multi-stage stratified random sampling method. Baseline characteristics of the subjects were collected and physical examinations were performed. Random midstream urine was collected to measure urinary cadmium and urinary creatinine and fasting venous blood was collected to measure the leukocyte count, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, monocyte count and eosinophil count. The linear mixed effect model was used to analyse the association of urinary cadmium levels with leukocyte classification counts, and the dose-response relationship between them was analyzed by using the restricted cubic spline (RCS) function.Results:The age of the subjects was (63.17±12.02) years; 2 851 (50.91%) were males; and the M ( Q 1, Q 3) of urinary creatinine-corrected urinary cadmium levels was 2.69 (1.52, 4.69) μg/g·creatinine. After adjusting for confounding factors, the results of linear mixed effects model analysis showed that for each 1-unit increase in urinary creatinine-corrected urinary cadmium level, the percentage change [% (95% CI)] of leukocyte count and lymphocyte count was -1.70% (-2.61%, -0.79%) and -1.57% (-2.86%, -0.26%), respectively. RCS function showed a negative linear relationship between urinary creatinine-corrected urinary cadmium levels and leukocyte counts and lymphocyte counts, respectively (all Pnon-linear>0.05). Conclusion:Urinary cadmium levels are negatively associated with leukocyte count and lymphocyte count among middle-aged and older adults aged 40 to 89 years in selected areas of China.
