To explore the general clinical features and treatment outcomes of patients with AIDS-related diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (AIDS-DLBCL) and provide a theoretical basis for diagnosis and treatment, survival prognosis, prevention and management of AIDS-DLBCL patients. AIDS-DLBCL patients who received combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) at Changsha First Hospital from January 2017 to January 2020 were selected in this study. The survival curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the association between AIDS-DLBCL specific variables and progression-free survival and overall survival. Correlation analysis was conducted based on the clinical features of the patients. A total of 50 AIDS-DLBCL patients were included. Their median age ( Q 1, Q 3) was 52 (44, 59) years, of whom 46 (92%) were male. About 20 (40%) patients received treatment with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP), while 23 patients (46%) received treatment with rituximab combined with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (RCHOP). Survival curve analysis showed that the 2-year progression-free survival rate and overall survival rate of AIDS-DLBCL patients were 56.9% and 61.6%, respectively. Patients with RCHOP protocol combined with EBV-DNA≥1 000 copies/ml had higher progression-free survival rate (χ 2=3.844, P=0.043) and overall survival rate (χ 2=4.662, P=0.031) than those with CHOP protocol combined with EBV-DNA≥1 000 copies/ml. A multivariate analysis showed that male ( HR=2.70, 95% CI:1.10-6.80), EB viral load≥1 000 copies/ml ( HR=1.75, 95% CI:1.12-2.84), HIV-RNA≥200 copies/ml ( HR=4.64, 95% CI: 1.73-12.15), ECOG PS score of 2 to 4 points ( HR=3.54, 95% CI:1.62-7.33), and international prognostic index (IPI) score of 3 to 5 points ( HR=5.21, 95% CI:1.39-20.14) were at a higher risk of disease progression. Patients with EB viral load≥1 000 copies/ml ( HR=0.07, 95% CI:0.05-0.93) on the RCHOP regimen had a small risk of disease progression. Males ( HR=2.87, 95% CI:1.65-9.17), EB viral load≥1 000 copies/ml ( HR=1.61, 95% CI:4.02-9.36), HIV-RNA≥200 copies/ml ( HR=1.19, 95% CI:1.58-2.74), ECOG PS score of 2 to 4 ( HR=6.42, 95% CI:2.55-14.33), IPI score of 3 to 5 points ( HR=2.78, 95% CI:1.41-12.96) had a high risk of mortality. Patients with EB viral load≥1 000 copies/ml ( HR=0.24, 95% CI:0.64-0.90) on the RCHOP regimen had a low risk of mortality. In summary, males, ECOG physical status score of 2 to 4 points, IPI score of 3 to 5 points, EB viral load≥1 000 copies/ml and HIV viral load≥200 copies/ml are risk factors affecting progression-free survival and overall survival of AIDS-DLBCL patients. RCHOP regimen combined with EB viral load≥1 000 copies/ml is a protective factor affecting progression-free survival and overall survival in AIDS-DLBCL patients.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiology, risk factors and biochemical indexes of nutritional status in children and adolescents aged 2~18 years in Southwest China.Methods:Children attending routine health checkups at the Children′s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between April 2017 and March 2021 were enrolled in this study.Nutritional status was defined based on BMI cut-off values, and statistically analyzed based on gender, region and age.Its risk factors were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.Results:A total of 22 609 cases were recruited and the overall prevalence of wasting, overweight and obesity was 5.87%, 9.81% and 10.50%, respectively.The prevalence of obesity and wasting in boys was higher than that in girls ( χ2=24.79, 12.39, all P<0.05), and the prevalence of overweight in boys was lower than that in girls( χ2=4.32, P<0.05). The prevalence of overweight among boys in urban regions was higher than that in rural regions( χ2=4.68, P<0.05). Compared in three age groups, boys aged 12~18 years had the highest prevalence of obesity( χ2=12.49, P<0.01), while girls had the lowest prevalence of wasting( χ2=6.18, P<0.05). Compared with boys, girls had a lower risk of obesity and wasting ( OR=0.80, 95% CI: 0.73~0.87), ( OR=0.80, 95% CI: 0.71~0.90). Compared to children aged 12~18 years, children aged 2~<6 years had a lower risk of obesity ( OR=0.55, 95% CI: 0.46~0.67), while children aged 6~<12 years had a higher risk of wasting ( OR=1.70, 95% CI: 1.25~2.33). Significant differences were reported in ALT, AST, ALP, UA, UN, CRE, TG, TC, HDL-C and LDL-C levels in obese children (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The nutritional status of children and adolescents in Southwest China is comparable to that at the national level.The prevalence of obesity and wasting is associated with gender and age.Obese children are more likely to have biochemical abnormalities.

Objective:To analyze and compare the incidence of catheter related complications between midline catheter (MC) and peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC) within 30 days. Provide guidance and basis for medical staff to choose appropriate intravenous infusion tools to prevent catheter related complications.Methods:The randomized controlled trials, clinical controlled trials and cohort studies about MC and PICC related complications were searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, EBSCO, Ovid, CNKI, VIP, Wanfang database and CBM, which were published at home and abroad up to December 31, 2021. After screening the literatures, extracting data and quality evaluation according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, RevMan5.4 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of ten articles were included in this study, including two randomized controlled trials, a clinical controlled trials, a prospective cohort study and six retrospective cohort studies, with 12 765 cases in MC group and 33 783 cases in PICC group. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the incidences of catheter-related bloodstream infection and catheter displacement in MC group were significantly lower than those in PICC group ( RR=0.37, 95% CI 0.18-0.76, P<0.05; RR=0.49, 95% CI 0.25-0.97, P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with PICC in the early stage of intravenous infusion, MC is safer and more effective. When continuous infusion of isotonic or near-isotonic medications is required, and there is no need for continuous vesicant medications, MC can be preferred. However, more large-sample and high-quality studies are still needed to provide a basis for the popularization of MC in China.

Background Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are one of the major occupational health problems in the world. Pharmaceutical industry is an important part of China's national economy. At present, there are few related studies reported at home and abroad. Objective To investigate the status and influencing factors of WMSDs in chemical pharmaceutical industry. Methods A cross-sectional epidemiological survey was conducted among all workers from three chemical pharmaceutical enterprises in Guangzhou. The Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire was used to collect information on demographic characteristics, symptoms of musculoskeletal disorders, types of work, work organization, and and work postures. Multiple logistic regression method was used to analyze the risk factors of WMSDs in chemical pharmaceutical workers. Results In this study, 563 workers were selected as subjects. The total prevalence rate of WMSDs symptoms in the chemical pharmaceutical workers was 43.9% (247/563), and the leading body part-specific prevalence rate from high to low was 34.3% in the lower back, 24.3% in the upper back, 24.0% in the shoulders, and 23.8% in the neck. The prevalence rate of WMSDs symptoms in multiple body parts (30.0%) was 2.16 times higher than that in single body part (13.9%), and the prevalence rate of WMSDs symptoms in four body parts was the highest (11.4%). The results of multiple logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥50 years (reference age <30 years) (OR=2.140, 95%CI: 1.054-4.345), often or very often (reference never/rarely) long-time head rotating (OR=2.695, 95%CI: 1.753-4.142) and long-time keeping arms above shoulders (OR=1.902, 95%CI: 1.108-3.265) increased the risk of reporting WMSDs symptoms (P<0.05). Regarding education level, workers with high school and technical secondary school (OR=0.333, 95%CI: 0.175-0.636) or college and above (OR=0.413, 95%CI: 0.216-0.790) education had a lower risk of reporting WMSDs symptoms than those with middle school or below (P<0.05). Conclusion The prevalence rate of reporting WMSDs symptoms in chemical pharmaceutical industry is high, the involving body parts are lower back, upper back, shoulders, and neck, and reporting simultaneous occurrence of WMSDs symptoms in multiple body parts is common. The chemical pharmaceutical manufacturers can reduce the risk of WMSDs by strengthening the training on workers' ergonomics knowledge, paying attention to the less educated personnel, protecting the elderly workers, and avoiding awkward work postures, like rotating head for a long time and raising arms over shoulders.

【Objective】 This paper screened the factors that may influence the spatial differentiation of Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) reference values in healthy adults in China and explored the trend of NLR reference values in China. 【Methods】 For this research, we collected the NLR of 162 681 healthy adults from 62 cities in China. Spearman regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between NLR and 25 geography secondary indexes. We extracted 9 indexes with significant correlation, built a random forest (RF) model, and predicted the country’s urban healthy adults’ NLR reference value. By using the disjunctive Kriging method, we obtained the geographical distribution of NLR reference value of healthy adults in China. 【Results】 The reference value of NLR of healthy adults in China was significantly correlated with the 9 secondary indexes, namely, altitude, sunshine duration, annual average temperature, annual average relative humidity, annual temperature range, annual average wind speed, content of organic matter in topsoil, cation exchange capacity in topsoil (clay), and total amount of CaSO

Background The operation mode of automobile manufacturing industry (AMI) makes workers have different degrees of occupational stress and burnout, which may lead to negative emotions and depressive symptoms. Objective To study the relationship between occupational stress, job burnout, and depressive symptoms in AMI workers. Methods In this study, 1300 workers from a Guangzhou AMI company were selected as subjects by cluster random sampling method. Occupational stress, job burnout, and depressive symptoms of the workers were assessed by using the Effort-Reward Imbalance (ERI) questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory general survey questionnaire, and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, respectively. Hierarchical regression was used to analyze the effects of occupational stress and job burnout on depressive symptoms in AMI workers. Mediating effect model was used to analyze the mediating effect of job burnout on the relationship between occupational stress and depressive symptoms. Results There were 1300 questionnaires distributed, 1228 valid questionnaires collected, with a 94.5% recovery rate. The ERI ratio of 1228 AMI workers was 1.06±0.72, and the positive rate of occupational stress was 37.3% (458/1228). The score of job burnout was 2.18±1.37, and the positive rate of job burnout was 62.6% (769/1228). The score of depressive symptoms was 10.27±6.42, and the positive rate of depressive symptoms was 47.1% (578/1228). The dimensional scores of effort and over-commitment in occupational stress as well as emotional exhaustion and depersonalization in job burnout of AMI workers were positively correlated with the depressive symptom scores (rs=0.415, 0.571, 0.573, 0.593, P<0.05). The dimensional scores of reward and personal achievement were negatively correlated (rs=−0.454, −0.339, P<0.05). The percentages of variance in depressive symptoms score explained by occupational stress and job burnout were 26.7% and 16.6%, respectively. Job burnout had a partial mediating effect between the three dimensions of occupational stress and depressive symptoms, and the mediating effect values were −0.2832 (95%CI: −0.3250– −0.2434), 0.3553 (95%CI: 0.3071–0.4041), and 0.4193 (95%CI: 0.3681–0.4725), respectively. Conclusion AMI workers' occupational stress affects job burnout, but also indirectly affects depressive symptoms. Job burnout partially mediates the association between occupational stress and depressive symptoms. Reducing occupational stress and burnout levels of AMI workers may alleviate depressive symptoms.

Objective To evaluate the early stage effects of partial two?stage exchange (PTE) for infection after total hip arthroplasty (THA) in order to improve surgical treatment outcomes. Methods Twelve patients (7 males and 5 females) of infect?ed THA treated by PTE between September 2000 and February 2016 were included with an average of 59 years old (range, 40-74 years old). The femoral stem prosthesis was preserved when we ensured that it was not infected and with well fixation during opera?tion. The acetabular prosthesis was totally replaced. Furthermore, the secondary surgery was performed on patients who were free from infection for at least 3 months. At the follow?up duration, the pelvic X?ray was examined to access the presence of loosening of the prosthesis. The inflammatory index was recorded. Hip function was assessed by the Harris hip score, and the visual analogue score (VAS) and patient's subjective satisfaction were recorded by the questionnaire. Results All of the 12 patients were fol?lowed up for a mean of 33.3 months (range, 24-48 months). We achieved a 92% (11/12) success rate. One patient resuffered infec?tion, which was controlled after the second debridement. The preoperative Harris score of 12 patients was 23-57, with an average of 40.83±10.62. All patients had significant improvement in hip function after PTE. The Harris score reached 59.58±4.34 at one month after surgery, and reached 64.58±9.08 after three months and 86.75±4.58 at the last follow?up. There was significantly dif?ferent when compared with the preoperative Harris score. At the last follow?up, the length difference between the lower limbs was less than 1cm in all patients. Two patients did not complain of pain, while other 10 patients got a VAS score of less than 2 points. The patient's subjective satisfaction rating was 100%. Conclusion PTE could be a valuable alternative treatment for infection af?ter THA. The infection control rate and clinical outcomes are comparable to those of two?stage exchange.
