ObjectiveTo investigate somatization symptoms in adolescents during frequent earthquakes in Hefei， and to explore their correlation with earthquake experiences. MethodsA cross-sectional survey was used to select 324 adolescents in Hefei as the survey objects. The self-rating scale of somatization symptoms （SSS） and the fatigue intensity scale （FIS） were used to evaluate the somatization symptoms and fatigue degree of middle school students， and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the related factors of somatization symptoms and fatigue among middle school students. ResultsA total of 324 adolescents were included， and the overall detection rate of somatization symptoms was 6.5%， and the detection rate of moderate or above fatigue was 20.1%. The results of regression analysis showed that adolescents who were concerned about the earthquake for a longer time （≥1 h） had a higher risk of somatization symptoms （OR=5.430， 95%CI： 1.547-19.058）， and adolescents who received pre-earthquake training had a lower degree of fatigue （OR=0.535， 95%CI： 0.292-0.981） （P<0.05）. ConclusionDuring the frequent earthquakes， adolescents have more somatization symptoms and fatigue. Therefore， it is crucial to enhance health education， reduce the emphasis on event-related reports， and implement earthquake prevention and disaster reduction training to improve the physical and mental health of adolescents.

This paper summarizes Professor LIU Fengbin's clinical experience in treating autoimmune liver disease （AILD） using the method of nourishing yin and removing stasis based on stage differentiation. He believes that the pathogenesis of AILD generally involves both deficiency in essence and excess in manifestation， with essence deficiency often presenting as liver and kidney yin deficiency， which may progress to spleen deficiency and yang deficiency over time. The excess manifestation commonly includes qi stagnation， blood stasis， damp-heat， and phlegm toxicity. Clinically， he advocates for the treatment principle of nourishing yin and removing stasis. On the foundation of nourishing liver and kidney yin， different pathological factors causing stasis are eliminated according to their nature. Treatment is also tailored to different stages of AILD. In the early and asymptomatic stages， liver qi stagnation and spleen deficiency are prominent， warranting a therapeutic approach of soothing the liver， regulating qi and strengthening the spleen. The modified Chaishao Qizhi Decoction （柴芍气滞汤） is used. During the symptomatic stage， pathogenic factors become more pronounced， often accompanied by a significant deficiency of vital qi， with damp-heat， water retention， and phlegm toxicity as key pathological features. The treatment should focus on strengthening the spleen and dispelling dampness， using modified Sijunzi Decoction （四君子汤） combined with Yinchen Wuling Powder （茵陈五苓散）. In the liver function decompensation stage， vital qi is severely deficient while pathogenic factors persist， with damp-heat， phlegm toxicity， and blood stasis obstructing the liver collaterals. Treatment should focus on nourishing blood， softening the liver， strengthening the spleen， and resolving stasis， using the modified Ruangan Yangxue Decoction （软肝养血汤）. Throughout the treatment process， emphasis is placed on tonifying the liver and kidneys while protecting yin fluids.

Background The high work intensity and possible subsequently increased susceptibility to occupational hazards of calcium carbide plants may lead to hypertension in workers, but there are few studies on the relationship between occupational hazard exposure and hypertension in workers involving the production process of calcium carbide. Objective To explore the influence of occupational hazards on the incidence of hypertension in calcium carbide plants. Methods Using historical cohort design, the employees of a calcium carbide factory in the western part of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region were selected as research subjects. According to the pre-determined inclusion and exclusion criteria, the study population comprised an exposure group of 377 employees (including furnace workers, inspection workers, and maintenance workers) exposed to dust, noise & carbon monoxide, and a control group of 388 employees (including central control workers, electricians, and administrative personnel) without above-mentioned exposure. The total sample size was 765 participants. The follow-up period was from April 2011 to October 2022, and the study endpoint was defined as the conclusion of the follow-up period or diagnosed hypertension in annual occupational health examination. Information on general demographic characteristics, living habits, and work status was collected from all study subjects. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the association between occupational hazard exposure and the risk of hypertension among the calcium carbide plant employees. Results The average age, mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure, proportion of males, smoking rate, and alcohol consumption rate in the exposure group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Compared to baseline, both systolic and diastolic blood pressure levels increased in the exposure group and the control group at the end of the follow-up (P<0.05). At the end of the follow-up, the average differences between systolic/ diastolic blood pressure and baseline values in the exposure group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). During the follow-up period, a total of 223 cases of hypertension occurred, with a total follow-up of 2785 person-years, resulting in an incidence density of 8007.18 per 100000 person-years, an average age of onset of (35.90±8.22) years, and an average working age of onset of (2.69±1.97) years. The incidence density in the exposure group was 128.71% higher than that in the control group, and the risk of hypertension in the exposure group was 2.115 times that of the control group. The risk of hypertension was 2.199 times higher for men than for women, 1.344 times higher for those aged 30 and above than for those under 30, 1.546 times higher for smokers than for non-smokers, and 1.750 times higher for drinking workers than for non-drinking ones. The results of Cox proportional hazards regression modeling indicated that the hazard ratio (95%CI) of hypertension among the employees exposed to dust, noise, and carbon monoxide was 2.254 (1.703, 2.982), 1.594 (1.107, 2.295), and 1.567 (1.079, 2.274), respectively, when different covariates (gender, age, smoking, and alcohol consumption) were included. The results of Log-rank test showed that there were statistically significant differences in the distribution of disease-free survival between the exposure group and the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Occupational exposures to dust, noise, and carbon monoxide may increase the risk of hypertension among calcium carbide plant workers.

Objective: To systematically analyzes the impact of blood donor characteristics on red blood cell (RBC) quality and transfusion outcomes, and to provide a scientific basis for optimizing donor selection criteria and developing personalized transfusion strategies. Methods: A literature search was conducted across electronic databases including CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Data, PubMed, and Embase using combinations of keywords such as "donor characteristics", "blood storage lesion", "blood quality", and "transfusion outcomes" for summary and analysis. Results: Factors associated with the blood donor characteristics including demographic characteristics (sex, age, body mass index), lifestyle habits (smoking, alcohol consumption, exercise), and dietary or pharmacological exposures significantly influence blood storage stability and transfusion efficacy by modulating erythrocyte metabolism, oxidative stress levels, and immune properties. Conclusion: The complexity and diversity of the blood donor characteristics are associated with blood quality and transfusion outcomes. Future efforts should focus on refining donor selection criteria and establishing personalized transfusion strategies to enhance blood product quality and improve patient outcomes.

Objective To systematically evaluate the radiation impact of radioactive sources used in online elemental analyzers in cement enterprises on the surrounding environment, and to provide a scientific basis for radiation monitoring and safety management at the application sites of this type of radioactive sources. Methods A statistical analysis was conducted on 15 cement enterprises in Guangxi Province using online elemental analyzers with ²⁵²Cf as the radioactive source. On-site investigation of radiation safety management and on-site monitoring of radiation environment were performed, followed by an evaluation based on the collected data. Results Although the gamma radiation ambient dose equivalent rate and neutron ambient dose equivalent rate increased around the sites using online elemental analyzers with ²⁵²Cf as the radioactive source, they all met the requirements of the Radiological Health Protection Requirements for Instruments with Sealed Sources (GBZ 125—2009). Conclusion Under the current usage and management conditions, the application of this type of radioactive sources has controllable radiation impact on the surrounding environment, and will not pose a threat to public health and environmental safety. However, continuous strengthening of radiation safety management measures and regular radiation monitoring work are still needed to ensure the safe use of radioactive sources, further reducing potential radiation risks and providing strong guarantees for the safe application of radioactive sources in online elemental analyzers in cement enterprises.

OBJECTIVE To analyze chemical components of Yao ethnic medicine Pittosporum pauciflorum， establish its fingerprint and investigate the spectrum-effect relationship of its anti-inflammatory effect. METHODS UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS technology was used to analyze the chemical components of P. pauciflorum （batch S6）. The fingerprints for 10 batches of P. pauciflorum from different producing areas in Guangxi Province （batches S1-S10） were established by HPLC， and similarity assessment and chemometric pattern recognition analysis were conducted. RAW264.7 inflammatory cell model was induced by lipopolysaccharide， and the anti-inflammatory activity of P. pauciflorum was investigated. Using inhibition rates of nitric oxide （NO）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6） and IL-1β as efficacy indicators， grey relational analysis and partial least squares regression analysis were adopted to evaluate the spectrum-effect relationship of the anti-inflammatory effect of P. pauciflorum. RESULTS There were 60 chemical components， including flavonoids， phenolic acids， lipids， etc.， identified in P. pauciflorum. The fingerprints for 10 batches of P. pauciflorum showed 14 common peaks，with similarity values ranging from 0.883 to 0.991. Three common peaks were assigned neochlorogenic acid （peak 5）， chlorogenic acid （peak 7）， and syringaldehyde （peak 10）. The classification results of the systematic clustering analysis and the principal component analysis were basically consistent. Batches S1 to S10 of P. pauciflorum significantly reduced the levels of NO， TNF-α， IL-6 （except for batch S5） and IL-1β in the cell supernatant （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Inhibition rates of above inflammatory indexes were 10.26%-39.96%， 14.96%-31.36%， 1.38%-21.27%， 18.54%-28.00%， respectively. The contents of neochlorogenic acid， syringaldehyde， as well as the components corresponding to peaks 1， 3， 9， 12 and 14，exhibited a strong correlation with the anti-inflammatory effects of P. pauciflorum. CONCLUSIONS The present study has analyzed the chemical components of P. pauciflorum and established HPLC fingerprints for 10 batches of P. pauciflorum. Each batch of medicinal herbs demonstrates certain anti- inflammatory activities， among which neochlorogenic acid， syringaldehyde， and the components corresponding to peaks 1， 3， 9， 12 and 14 are likely to be the active anti-inflammatory components.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors for early hematoma enlargement(HE)in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage(SICH).Methods A total of 311 pa-tients with SICH were selected as research subjects.Based on the occurrence of HE,they were divided into enlargement group and non-enlargement group.Clinical assessment indicators of patients with SICH were collected,and general information between the two groups was compared.The influencing factors for the occurrence of HE in patients with SICH were analyzed.Results Based on the presence of HE at a second CT examination within 6 to 12 hours,311 patients with SICH were divided into en-largement group(n=97)and non-enlargement group(n=214).Univariate analysis revealed signifi-cant differences between the two groups in terms of initial hematoma volume,regularity of hematoma margin,Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS)score,coagulation function,as well as the presence of swirl sign,lobulation sign,black hole sign,blend sign,lymphocyte count and neutrophil count(P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis indicated that GCS score,initial hematoma volume,history of antithrom-botic drug use,abnormal coagulation function and intracranial CT signs were independent influencing factors for HE(P＜0.05).Conclusion The occurrence of HE in patients with SICH is closely re-lated to GCS score,initial hematoma volume,history of antithrombotic drug use,abnormal coagulation function and intracranial CT signs.

Objective To evaluate the effects of Yiqi Huayu Jiedu Decoction combined with chemotherapy on disease-free survival rate and disease-free survival(DFS)of patients with stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ postoperative gastric cancer.Methods Totally 102 patients with stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ postoperative gastric cancer treated by Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine and Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital were selected.The patients were divided into control group(52 cases)and test group(50 cases)with block random method.The control group received conventional postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for 4-6 cycles.The test group was treated with Chinese materia medica for 6 months on the basis of chemotherapy.Continue follow-up until the patients had recurrence,metastasis or death.DFS was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method,and the average DFS of the two groups was estimated.Log Rank test was used to test the significance of differences in survival distribution between groups.Univariate and multivariate analyses of variables affecting prognosis were conducted using the Cox regression model.Adverse reactions of both groups were monitored.Results The recurrence and metastasis rate of the test group was 12.0%(6/50),while that of the control group was 34.6%(18/52),which was lower in the test group than in the control group(P<0.05).The 1-year and 2-year DFS rates and DFS of the control group were 86.5%,72.2%and 25.8 months respectively,while those of the test group were 95.6%,84.1%and 33.9 months respectively,with statistical significance(P=0.012).Cox-regression analysis suggested:The independent factors influencing the disease-free survival time of patients with gastric cancer were the test group(P=0.022),surgical methods of subtotal gastrectomy(P=0.038)and clinical stages Ⅱ(P=0.040).No adverse reactions related to Chinese materia medica were reported in the two groups.Conclusion Yiqi Huayu Jiedu Decoction combined with chemotherapy can improve the 1-year and 2-year DFS rate,prolong DFS,reduce the recurrence and metastasis rate,and improve the prognosis.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of posteromedial combined with lateral Frosch approach versus anterior medial and lateral dual incision approach in open reduction and internal fixation for Schatzker type VI tibial plateau fractures.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 41 patients with Schatzker type VI tibial plateau fractures, who were admitted to the 940th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of the PLA from January 2018 to May 2024, including 23 males and 18 females, aged 34-79 years [(50.7±7.7)years]. Twenty-three patients underwent open reduction and internal fixation via the posteromedial combined with lateral Frosch approach (posterior approach group), while 18 patients underwent the same procedure via the anterior medial and lateral dual incision approach (anterior approach group). The following parameters were compared between the two groups: operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, depth of articular surface depression and tibial plateau width measured preoperatively, at 7 days, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) and posterior proximal tibial angle (PPTA) measured at 7 days, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, visual analogue scale (VAS) scores assessed preoperatively, at 7 days postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, American Knee Society (KSS) score and knee flexion range of motion assessed at 7 days, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, fracture healing status at the last follow-up, and incidence of postoperative complications.Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-16 months [(14.3±2.1)months]. The operation duration was (119.6±11.8)minutes in the posterior approach group, which was significantly shorter than (140.3±10.6)minutes in the anterior approach group ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in intraoperative blood loss or postoperative drainage volume between the two groups ( P>0.05). No significant differences were found in the preoperative depth of articular surface depression or tibial plateau width between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 7 days, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, the depth of articular surface depression was 0.8(0.6, 1.0)mm, 0.6(0.5, 0.8)mm, and 0.6(0.5, 0.7)mm in the posterior approach group, which were significantly shorter than 1.1(0.9, 1.3)mm, 0.8(0.7, 1.0)mm, and 0.8(0.7, 1.0)mm in the anterior approach group ( P<0.05). The tibial plateau width at the same time points was 71.0(69.1, 73.5)mm, 70.5(69.2, 72.9)mm, and 70.5(69.3, 72.5)mm in the posterior approach group, which were significantly shorter than 73.0(72.3, 74.2)mm, 71.5(71.0, 73.0)mm, and 71.5(71.1, 72.6)mm in the anterior approach group ( P<0.05). At 7 days, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, the MPTA values were (87.4±0.7)°, (87.7±0.6)°, and (87.9±0.5)° in the posterior approach group, which were significantly larger than (85.2±2.5)°, (86.0±2.2)°, and (86.3±2.0)° in the anterior approach group ( P<0.01). The PPTA values at the same time points were (9.5±0.7)°, (9.0±0.5)°, and (8.6±0.4)° in the posterior approach group, which were significantly smaller than (11.2±1.0)°, (10.3±0.8)°, and (9.8±0.7)° in the anterior approach group ( P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the preoperative VAS score between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 7 days postoperatively and at the last follow-up, the VAS scores were 4.0(3.0, 5.0)points and 0.5(0.0, 2.0)points in the posterior approach group, which were significantly lower than 5.0(4.0, 5.0)points and 1.0(1.0, 3.0)points in the anterior approach group ( P<0.05). At 7 days, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, the KSS scores were 62.5(57.0, 67.5)points, 75.5(72.0, 82.5)points, and 87.0(82.5, 93.5)points in the posterior approach group, which were significantly higher than 61.5(54.5, 63.0)points, 74.0(68.0, 79.0)points, and 85.5(78.0, 88.5)points in the anterior approach group ( P<0.05). The knee flexion range of motion was 90.0(85.0, 95.0)°, 115.0(109.0, 122.0)°, and 126.0(120.0, 130.0)° in the posterior approach group, which were significantly greater than 80.5(75.2, 85.8)°, 110.0(104.0, 115.0)°, and 119.0(113.0, 122.0)° in the anterior approach group ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, all the fractures were healed in both groups. No statistically significant difference was found in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared to the anterior medial and lateral dual incision approach, the posteromedial combined with lateral Frosch approach demonstrates superior advantages in operation duration, reduction quality, pain relief, functional recovery in the treatment of Schatzker type VI tibial plateau fractures, while the incidence of complications is comparable.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of cementless long-stem total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the treatment of end-stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric femoral fractures.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted on 18 patients with end-stage ONFH combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fractures who were admitted to the 940th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of the PLA from January 2016 to June 2023, including 8 males (8 hips) and 10 females (10 hips), aged 56-79 years [(69.4±7.0)years]. All the patients had Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) stage IV ONFH combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fracture (Seinsheimer types II-IV). Parameters recorded included operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, length of hospital stay, time to partial weight-bearing, and time to full weight-bearing. Vertical offset and leg length discrepancy (LLD) were compared preoperatively and at 1 week postoperatively. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score, hip range of motion (flexion, abduction), and Harris hip score (HHS) were compared preoperatively, at 1 week, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up. Perioperative complications were observed.Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-70 months [(36.4±16.2)months]. Operation duration was (116.4±18.1)minutes. Intraoperative blood loss was (334.4±121.3)ml. The length of hospital stay was 13.0(10.0, 16.3)days. The time to partial weight-bearing was 5.0(3.0, 7.0)days, with time to full weight-bearing for 5.0(4.0, 5.3)weeks. At 1 week postoperatively, the vertical offset [(58.9±4.1)mm] was significantly increased compared to that preoperatively [(49.3±3.3)mm] ( P<0.01), while the LLD [(4.2±3.1)mm] was significantly reduced compared to that preoperatively [(16.2±5.8)mm] ( P<0.01). At 1 week, 3 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up, the VAS scores [3.0(2.0, 3.3)points, 2.0(1.0, 2.0)points, and 1.0(0.0, 2.0)points] were significantly lower than that preoperatively [6.0(5.0, 6.3)points], and decreased with the passage of follow-up time ( P<0.01); the hip flexion angles [(50.4±6.5)°, (94.3±6.4)°, and (104.7±7.4)°] and hip abduction angles [(21.5±4.4)°, (34.9±4.5)°, and (42.9±4.9)°] were lower than those preoperatively [(32.9±6.4)° and (13.4±4.9)°], and decreased with the passage of follow-up time ( P<0.01); the HHS [(58.1±4.9)points, (83.1±2.9)points, and (90.7±2.6)points] were higher than that preoperatively [(33.4±4.4)points], and increased with the passage of follow-up time ( P<0.01). At the last follow-up, 5 patients were rated as excellent, 11 as good, and 2 as fair according to the HHS criteria, with an overall excellent and good rate of 89%. No perioperative complications were observed, including neurovascular injury, secondary fracture, or infection. One patient developed partial deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremity (the popliteal vein) at 2 weeks after surgery, which recovered completely following treatment with a standard oral administration of rivaroxaban, etc. At the last follow-up, no evidence of malunion, prosthesis loosening, subsidence, or dislocation was observed. Conclusion:The use of cementless long-stem THA in the treatment of end-stage ONFH combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fractures has advantages of small trauma, early weight-bearing, early pain relief, improved joint motion and function, and few complications.
