Objective:To understand the current status of personal protection in occupational population at high risk for brucellosis in China and provide evidence for the evaluation of implementation of National Brucellosis Prevention and Control Plan (2016-2020).Methods:Four counties in Shanxi Province and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were selected to conduct a questionnaire survey in occupational population at high risk for brucellosis from December 2019 to July 2020 by using cross-sectional survey methods.Results:A total of 2 384 persons at high risk for brucellosis were surveyed, and the standardized utilization rate of personal protective equipment (PPE) was 20.13% (480/2 384). The utilization rate of glove, mask, rubber shoe, and work cloth were 38.26% (912/2 384), 31.80% (758/2 384), 32.01% (763/2 384) and 30.87% (736/2 384),respectively. There were significant differences in the utilization rate and standardized utilization rate of the four types of PPE among populations in different age, occupation, educational level and area groups (all P<0.001). The utilization rate and standardized utilization rate of PPE were lower in people over 60 years old, women, farmers, and those with lower educational level. The results of multivariate analysis showed that occupation and area were the influencing factors for the standardized utilization of PPE, the standardized utilization rates of PPE were higher in herdsmen and veterinarians. The standardized utilization rate of PPE in Yanggao County and Huocheng County was significantly higher than that in Zuoyun County and Hunyuan County. Conclusions:The utilization rate of the four types of PPE in occupational population at high risk for brucellosis was not high in China, and the standardized utilization rate was low, lower than the requirement in National Brucellosis Prevention and Control Plan, and there were significant differences among different areas. It is urgent to distribute PPE to occupational population at high risk for brucellosis and carry out health education about PPE utilization. Meanwhile, it is necessary to strengthen information exchange or sharing among different areas.

Objective:To understand the current status of knowledge of brucellosis prevention and control among occupational groups at high-risk of brucellosis, and to provide a scientific basis for assessing the effectiveness of brucellosis prevention and control in China.Methods:A total of four counties in Shanxi Province and Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were selected as survey counties from 2019 to 2020, and 600 people from the occupational groups at high-risk of brucellosis in each survey county were selected as survey respondents, and basic information and knowledge of prevention and treatment were collected through questionnaires. Single-factor and multi-factor logistic regression models were used to analyze the factors affecting the population's knowledge of prevention and treatment.Results:A total of 2 411 people participated in the survey and 2 384 valid questionnaires were obtained, including 1 405 males and 979 females, with the youngest age being 18 years old, the oldest being 91 years old, and the median being 57 years old. The overall knowledge of brucellosis prevention and control was 17.74% (423/2 384). The knowledge rate was lower among people over 60 years old, farmers, and people with less than elementary school education (13.99%, 14.50%, and 13.78%), and higher among women, herders, and people with elementary school education (20.02%, 36.33%, and 19.58%); the knowledge rate was lower in Hunyuan County (0.51%), and the differences in overall knowledge rates by age, occupation, education level, and region were statistically significant (χ 2 = 18.25, 87.18, 11.05, 197.43, P < 0.001). Multi-factor logistic regression analysis showed that gender, occupation, literacy and region were associated with knowledge of prevention and treatment ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:The overall knowledge of prevention and treatment among high-risk occupational groups in the key areas of China's brucellosis prevention and treatment program is low, with a large gap with the goals of the national brucellosis prevention and treatment program, and gender, occupation, literacy level, and region are the influencing factors of the knowledge of prevention and treatment. There is an urgent need to carry out a variety of health education activities for high-risk occupational groups and to strengthen the exchange of experience on brucellosis prevention and treatment between regions.

Objective To systematically evaluate the rehabilitation experience of patients after total knee arthroplasty,and to provide references for improving the effect of rehabilitation treatment and formulating related clinical nursing strategies.Methods We searched PubMed,Web of Science,the Cochrane Library,Embase,CINAHL,Scopus,ProQuest,CNKI,Wanfang database,VIP database and Chinese biomedical literature database.A qualitative study on the experiences,feelings,and needs of patients undergoing rehabilitation after total knee arthroplasty was retrieved from the database until April 2023.The quality of literature was evaluated using the Quality Evaluation Criteria of Evidence-Based Health Care Center(2016)of Joanna Briggs Institute in Australia,and the results were summarized and integrated by the aggregation integration method.Results A total of 25 studies were included;82 topics were summarized into 12 categories;4 integrated results were finally formed:rehabilitation treatment was faced with multiple difficulties,and patients lost confidence and needed professional guidance and supervision;unsatisfactory experience in rehabilitation;the perception of the benefits of rehabilitation therapy and the encouragement of medical staff,and firm faith in rehabilitation;seeking understanding and social support can promote the effect of rehabilitation therapy.Conclusion Healthcare professionals should pay attention to and reflect on the challenges and unsatisfactory experiences that patients may face during rehabilitation,and provide them with professional guidance and supervision,as well as personalized rehabilitation treatment.

Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn) is an oral anaerobic bacterium that has recently been found to colonize on the surface of colorectal cancer cells in humans, and its degree of enrichment is highly negatively correlated with the prognosis of tumor treatment. Numerous studies have shown that Fn is involved in the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer (CRC), and Fn interacts with multiple components in the tumor microenvironment to increase tumor resistance. In recent years, researchers have begun using nanomedicine to inhibit Fn's proliferation at the tumor site or directly target Fn to treat CRC. This review summarizes the mechanism of Fn in promoting CRC and the latest research progress on Fn-related CRC therapy using different nanomaterials. Finally, the applications perspective of nanomaterials in Fn-promoted CRC therapy was prospected.

AIM: To provide reference for clinical application of warfarin PPK/PD model, the prediction accuracy of warfarin PPK/PD model and 6 dose models established by multiple linear regression were compared. METHODS: Clinical data of inpatients who took warfarin tablets for oral anticoagulant therapy in our hospital were collected, and the predictive values were simulated by PPK/PD model and other 6 models, respectively. SPSS 23.0 software was used for paired t-test of measured value and predicted value. MAE and percentage of prediction deviation were used to evaluate the results, and the prediction deviation box-plot was drawn to compare the total data, different dose groups and different genotypes. RESULTS: A total of 50 patients were included in the study. Among 7 models, only PPK/PD model, Wen et al., and Du Liping et al.'s model had no statistical difference in predicted values and measured values (P>0.05). The prediction accuracy of PPK/PD model was higher among the total data, low and medium doses, and patients with different genotypes.The prediction accuracy of Wen et al. 's model and Li Chuanbao et al.'s model was higher in the high-dose group. CONCLUSION: The PPK/PD model of warfarin has good clinical prediction performance, which is expected to provide reference for accurate administration of warfarin.

Objective:To explore the medical costs and influencing factors of patients diagnosed with Brucellosis in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (Xinjiang).Methods:Information on demographics, medical visits, and costs of patients diagnosed with Brucellosis were collected between January 1,2017 and December 31,2019. The effects of different genders, age groups, clinical stages, and comorbidities on patients' health care utilization and medical costs were analyzed by nonparametric tests. The median was used to describe the outpatient and inpatient costs of patients with Brucellosis.Results:A total of 13 532 patients (8 113 outpatient and 5 419 inpatient cases) were included in the analysis. A total of 67.8% (9 176/13 532) were male, with an average age of (42.7±15.4 ) years; age between 18-44 years (46.6%, 6 304/13 532) and 45-59 years (34.2%,4 622/13 532) were the dominant groups. The mean age of inpatients [(43.3±15.7) years] was higher than that of outpatients [(42.3±15.1) years, Z=-3.85, P<0.001]. When hospitalized patients are treated,systemic symptoms were common with fever (36.9%, 1 997/5 419) and fatigue (36.6%, 1 983/5 419), and with joint/muscle pain (68.9%, 3 735/5 419) being the highest proportion of local symptoms. A total of 79.1% (4 289/5 419) of inpatients were diagnosed with acute Brucellosis. A total of 46.5% (2 519/5 419) of inpatients had complications;skeletal system complications ranked the highest. The average number of outpatient visits per outpatient was (1.6±1.4) times. The duration of hospitalization was (11.3±4.2) days, with longer days for patients in the chronic phase and with complications ( P<0.05). A total of 89.3% (4 840/5 419) of inpatients had outpatient records in the same year,and the average number of outpatient visits per patient was (3.6±2.6) times. Outpatient medical costs were dominated by laboratory and drug costs (75.1%), and inpatient costs were dominated by drug, laboratory, and other costs (74.4%). Outpatient medical expenses M( Q1, Q3) were 61(52, 497) Yuan, 61 (51, 346) Yuan and 58 (46, 318) Yuan,respectively. Inpatients' medical expenses M ( Q1, Q3) were 8 214 (6 355, 10 721) Yuan,9 095 (7 018, 12 155) Yuan and 9 492 (7 530, 12 351) Yuan, respectively. For patients, age, clinical stages,complications,and joint/muscle pain symptoms were influential factors for hospitalization costs ( P<0.001). Conclusions:The economic burden was higher for inpatients, especially those in the high age group, with chronic phases and skeletal and neurological complications. Improving patients' awareness of early treatment, standardized treatment, and reducing chronicity and complications are the main points in reducing the economic burden caused by Brucellosis diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To explore the medical costs and influencing factors of patients diagnosed with Brucellosis in Datong of Shanxi province.Methods:Information on demographics, medical visits, and costs of patients diagnosed with Brucellosis between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2019, were collected. Health care utilization and medical costs were analyzed from different genders, age groups, underlying diseases, clinical stages, and comorbidities.Results:A total of 2 289 patients (1 715 outpatient and 574 inpatient cases) were included in the analysis. 72.0% (1 649/2 289) were male, with an average age of (49.6±15.5) years; age between 45-59 years was the dominant group (36.2%,829/2 289). The mean age of inpatients (51.4±16.0) was higher than that of outpatients (49.0±15.2)( Z=-4.01, P<0.001). The average number of outpatient visits per outpatient was (1.6±1.5) times. The duration of hospitalization was (14.6±9.9) and (20.8±11.4) days for patients with central nervous system complications and (16.6±9.5) days for vascular system complications. Of the inpatients, 51.0% (293/574) had underlying diseases, and 30.3% (174/574) had endocrine and metabolic diseases. 54.0% (310/574) of inpatients were diagnosed with acute Brucellosis, and 46.0% (264/574) were diagnosed with chronic Brucellosis. A total of 64.3% (369/574) of inpatients had complications, 30.3% (174/574) of digestive system complications, followed by skeletal system complications (29.1%, 167/574). Among outpatients, age significantly affected medical costs ( P<0.001). For inpatients, age and complications and treatment effect were influential factors ( P<0.05). Patients with the combined skeletal system and central nervous system complications had significantly higher medical costs ( P<0.001). Conclusions:The medical costs for outpatient cases of Brucellosis were moderate. However, the economic burden was higher for inpatients, especially those with skeletal and neurological complications. Early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of cases were essential to avoid chronic Brucellosis and its complications and reduce medical costs.
