Objective To design a mobile personnel radiation protection equipment for operation in environments with high radiation such as spent fuel reprocessing plants, to achieve simultaneous protection against γ radiation, neutron radiation, and radioactive aerosol, to reduce the internal and external exposure dose of radioactive workers, and to meet the requirement of operation for two hours. Methods The core parts of the mobile personnel radiation protection equipment included a shielding chamber and a respiratory maintenance system. An automated chassis was used for the movement and lifting of the shielding chamber. MCNP software was used to simulate and calculate the protective effects of shielding chamber made of different materials and material thicknesses. Experimental verification of the shielding chamber design was conducted. Mathematical models were established to describe the variations in the content of various gases in the chamber with personnel operation time. A respiratory maintenance system, a harmful gas absorption device, and an automated mobile chassis were designed. Results The shielding chamber made of polyethylene with a thickness of 80 mm achieved an 80% neutron shielding rate. The respiratory maintenance system could support workers for 2 hours of operation inside the equipment. The mobile chassis allowed operation of the equipment with one person. Conclusion This mobile personnel radiation protection equipment can solve the problem in simultaneous protection against γ radiation, neutron radiation, and radioactive aerosol. The equipment can provide radiation protection for radioactive workers, reduce exposure dose, and reduce personnel burden. This system provides technical means for the operation and maintenance of equipment in high-radiation sites such as spent fuel reprocessing plants.

Objective:To investigate the changes of mortality，causes of death，and cause-specific mortality rate（CMR）of hospitalized neonates in NICU of the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University.Method:A retrospective study was performed to compare the mortality，cause of death，and CMR of hospitalized neonates in period Ⅰ（2005-2009），period Ⅱ（2010-2014）and period Ⅲ（2015-2020）.Result:The overall mortality of hospitalized neonates in NICU of our hospital was 0.51%（104/20 493）through 2005 to 2020. The mortality in period Ⅰ，Ⅱ and Ⅲ were 0.61%（48/7 855），0.43%（27/6 209），and 0.45%（29/6 429），respectively. Compared with period Ⅰ，the mortality of preterm infants decreased significantly in period Ⅱ（3.14% vs 1.24%， χ2=14.076， P<0.01）and in period Ⅲ（3.14% vs 0.90%， χ2=25.157， P<0.01）. Eighty-five（81.7%）neonates were premature，and ninety-one（89.2%）neonates had definite abnormal perinatal factors. The CMR of hospitalized neonates related to pulmonary hemorrhage，congenital anomalies，and NRDS were 1.22‰（25/20 493），0.93‰（19/20 493），and 0.59‰（12/20 493），respectively. The CMR of other causes were sepsis 0.44‰（9/20 493），extremely premature 0.34‰（7/20 493），and perinatal asphyxia 0.24‰（5/20 493），respectively. Compared with period Ⅰ，specific mortality of NRDS in period Ⅱ（1.27‰ vs 0.16‰， χ2=5.487， P=0.016）and period Ⅲ（1.27‰ vs 0.16‰， χ2=5.738， P=0.014）significantly decreased. The leading causes of neonatal death in period Ⅰ，period Ⅱ，and period Ⅲ were NRDS，pulmonary hemorrhage，and congenital anomalies，respectively.And 71.2%（74/104）of neonatal deaths occurred within 7 days after birth. Conclusion:The mortality of preterm infants and specific mortality of NRDS in NICU have significantly decreased over the past 16 years.Congenital anomalies and infections remain important causes of death，and further efforts are needed to improve perinatal care.

Objective To assess the feasibility of employing chip resistors for retrospective dose reconstruction following nuclear accidents, to examine the effects of storage temperature and storage time on the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) characteristics of the chip resistors, and to explore measures to mitigate these effects. Methods Chip resistors were analyzed using automated instruments for measuring thermoluminescence and OSL manufactured by Risø in Denmark with various parameters to understand the impact of storage temperature and storage time on OSL signals. Results The OSL signals of chip resistors exhibited exponential attenuation within 10 min after irradiation, and then stabilized (count change < 10%) within 2-7 days of storage. The chip resistors exhibited linear dose responses within 1-3 days of storage after 0.1-2 Gy irradiation. OSL signals diminished as the storage temperature increased. However, preheating at 130 ℃ for 1 min effectively eliminated the differences caused by temperatures between 25 ℃ and 45 ℃. Conclusion The OSL signals of chip resistors are influenced by storage temperature and storage time. When preheated at 130 ℃ for 1 min, chip resistors stored for 1-7 days and at 25-45 ℃ exhibited OSL signal errors of 10% or less. This result emphasizes the importance of preheating for measurements in practical applications, thus providing a scientific approach and a solid foundation for the use of chip resistors in retrospective dose reconstruction.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect mechanism of Eucommia ulmoides on improving postpartum depression in rats. METHODS Pregnant rats were randomly divided into normal group， postpartum depression group， and low-dose and high-dose groups of E. ulmoides （1.34， 2.68 g/kg， calculated by crude drug）， with 10 rats in each group. Except for the normal group， the rats in other groups suffered from fear stress to induce postpartum depression model during pregnancy； at the same time of modeling， the administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically， while the normal group and postpartum depression group were given physiological saline intragastrically for 21 days. Postpartum behaviors of rats during the experiment were assessed using the open field test， Morris water maze test and sucrose preference test. Additionally， the levels of corticosterone （CORT） in serum， corticotropin releasing factor （CRF） and urocortin （UCN） in hypothalamus， and adrenocorticotropic hormone （ACTH） in hypophysis were detected； meanwhile， the protein expressions of CRF receptor 1 （CRFR1）， CRFR2， and voltage-dependent anion channel 1 （VDAC1） in hippocampal tissue were measured； the proportions of apoptotic cells and JC-1 high potential cells in hippocampal tissue were determined， and the morphology of hippocampal tissue was observed. RESULTS Compared with postpartum depression group， the high-dose group of E. ulmoides showed improvements in appetite， mental state， and hair color in rats； their body weight had increased； the scores of vertical movement， horizontal movement and self-sorting significantly increased； from the 2ed to 4th day avoidance latency significantly shortened， and the times of crossing the platform and the time of crossing the platform Δ 基金项目国家自然科学基金青年基金项目（No.82204789） significantly increased/prolonged （P＜0.05）； the ratio of glucose and water consumption significantly increased at 20 days of pregnancy and 30 days postpartum （P＜0.05）； the levels of CRF， UCN， ACTH and CORT， phagocytic rate， protein expressions of CRFR2 and VDAC1， and the proportion of apoptosis cells in hippocampal tissue were decreased significantly （P＜0.05）； the proportion of JC-1 high potential cells significantly increased （P＜0.05）， and the phenomenon of edema around neuronal cells was significantly improved. CONCLUSIONS E. ulmoides can improve postpartum depression by inhibiting excessive activation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis， decreasing the expression of CRFR2， thereby inhibiting the expression of VDAC1， and decreasing the apoptosis of neuronal cells.

OBJECTIVE To mine the adverse drug event （ADE） signals of selinexor， and to provide reference for its clinical safety medication. METHODS ADE data for selinexor reported from July 3rd， 2019 to March 31st， 2023 were collected from the FDA adverse event reporting system （FAERS）. Data mining was performed by using the reporting odds ratio （ROR） and proportional reporting ratio （PRR） methods， and categorization statistics were performed by using the system organ class （SOC） and preferred term （PT） from drug ADE terminology set in the MedDRA （version 26.0）. RESULTS A total of 3 084 ADE reports were obtained for selinexor， with a total of 134 ADE-positive signals. Among the reported genders， there were 127 males and 124 females， with a predominant age of ≥65 years old （4.12%）； the United States had the highest number of reports （96.53%）， with consumers being the main reporters （77.27%）； severe ADR was mainly characterized by hospitalization/prolonged hospitalization （26.26%）， followed by death （17.15%）. The top 3 ADE in the list of frequency were nausea （1 162 times）， fatigue （790 times） and anorexia （610 times）， all of which were mentioned in the selinexor’s instructions. The top 3 signals in the list of strength were device-associated bacteremia （ROR＝115.07， PRR＝114.94）， blepharospasm dysfunction （ROR＝106.70， PRR＝106.54）， and salmonella sepsis （ROR＝99.90， PRR＝99.81）， all of which were not mentioned in the selinexor’s instructions. CONCLUSIONS In addition to the ADE of nausea mentioned in the instruction manual， attention should also paid to device-associated bacteremia， blepharospasm dysfunction， salmonella sepsis， and other ADE not mentioned in the instruction manual when using selinexor in clinical practice； weekly rechecking of the patient’s blood routine should be done to monitor the patient’s blood indexes， symptoms of infection， and so on， to ensure that the safety of 1661962346@qq.com drug use.

Objective:To study the clinical efficacy of digital design combined with three-dimensional (3D) printing model minimally invasive extraction of complex impacted mandibular third molars.Methods:Eight patients who visited the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from April 2023 to March 2024 were included, including 3 males and 5 females, aged from 27 to 57 years old. The impacted mandibular third molars of all patients were closely related to the mandibular canal, and part of the dental tissue entered the mandibular canal. Preoperative digital design was used to simulate the intraoperative tooth segmentation and bone removal operation of the power system and the segmented tooth dislocation path, and analyze the tooth extraction resistance. The mandibular teeth, mandibular canal and mandibular model were three-dimensionally printed using light-curing resin inkjet. During the operation, an endoscope was used combined with the 3D printed model to minimally invasively extract the impacted mandibular third molar. Quantitative sensory testing of the patient′s lower lip skin on the operated side was performed before surgery, 2 days after surgery, and 7 days after surgery. Clinical data such as operation time were collected. A paired sample t test was performed on the 2 and 7 days postoperative data and the preoperative data to compare the data differences.Results:All 8 patients successfully completed preoperative design, model printing and minimally invasive surgery. The number of teeth segmented in the preoperative design was (4.4±1.3), and the number of teeth segmented in the actual operation was (4.0±1.1). The operation time was (33.3±13.0) min. None of the patients had postoperative numbness of the lower lip or other postoperative complication. It was observed endoscopically that the inferior alveolar neurovascular bundle was exposed in the extraction socket during the operation. The patient′s pressure pain threshold 2 days after surgery (0.601±1.170) was significantly lower than before surgery (1.251±1.109) ( t=2.83, P=0.025). Conclusions:For complicated impacted mandibular third molars, digital design combined with 3D printing model can be used to perform minimally invasive extraction with the assistance of an endoscope.

Objective·To investigate the current situation and distribution characteristics of chronic comorbidities,and to provide reference for further improving the self-management of comorbidities and implementing the whole course and all-round management of comorbidity.Methods·Two thousand and forty-five inpatients in the Department of Geriatrics,Renji Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were enrolled in this study from December 2020 to February 2023.The general vital signs,routine laboratory examination and disease status were collected.The epidemiological distribution characteristics of chronic diseases and comorbidities were analyzed.Results·The incidence of chronic diseases in the surveyed population was 99.6％,and the incidence of comorbidities was 94.2％.The top 5 chronic diseases were hypertension(43.68％),diabetes mellitus(24.81％),malignant tumor(21.48％),hyperlipidemia(18.38％)and coronary heart disease(11.99％).The detection rates of hypertension,diabetes mellitus,coronary heart disease,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,stoke and chronic kidney disease in males were significantly higher than those in females(P＜0.05).The proportion of patients with 5 chronic diseases was the highest(11.99％),followed by 7 chronic diseases(10.26％)and 6 chronic diseases(10.04％).Among the patients of different ages,the comorbidity rate was the highest in the patients aged 50-59 years(27.78％).In different age groups,patients aged 50 to 59 with 2 chronic diseases had the highest incidence of comorbidity,which was as high as 40.82％.Although the overall proportion of comorbidities among male patients(95.37％)was higher than that among females(93.77％),there was no statistically significant difference(P=0.125).However,the proportions of male patients with 2 and 5 chronic diseases were 70.41％and 60.63％,respectively,which were significantly higher than those of female patients(29.59％and 39.37％).The correlations between coronary heart disease and diabetes mellitus,hypertension and coronary heart disease,hypertension and diabetes mellitus were higher(r=0.24,r=0.27,r=0.35,all P＜0.05).Conclusion·The prevalence of chronic diseases and comorbidities is high in the middle-aged and elderly population,and the number of comorbidities increases significantly with the increase of age.

Objective:To investigate the effect of subacute exposure of Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate(DEHP)on endometrial decidualization and early pregnancy miscarriage in mice.Methods:CD1 mice were orally administrated with 300(low-dose group),1000(medium-dose group),or 3000 mg·kg-1·d-1 DEHP(1/10 LD50,high-dose group)for 28 days,respectively.An early natural pregnancy model and an artificially induced decidualization model were established.The uterine tissues were collected on D7 of natural pregnancy and D8 of artificially induced decidualization,respectively.The effects of a subacute exposure to DEHP on the decidualization of mice were detected by HE staining,Masson staining,TUNEL assay,and Western blotting.A model of spontaneous abortion was constructed in mice after subacute exposure to 300 mg·kg-1·d-1 DEHP,and the effect of impaired decidualization on pregnancy was investigated by observing the pregnancy outcome on the 10th day of gestation.Results:Compared with the control group,the conception rate was significantly decreased in the high-dose DEHP subacute exposure group(P＜0.05).HE staining showed that,compared with the control group,the decidual stromal cells in the low-and medium-dose exposure groups were disorganized,the nuclei of the cells were irregular,the cytoplasmic staining was uneven,and the number of polymorphonuclear cells was significantly reduced.Masson staining showed that compared with the control group,the collagen fibers in the decidua region of the DEHP low-dose group and the medium-dose group were more distributed,more abundant and more disorderly.TUNEL assay showed increased apoptosis in the decidua area compared to the control group.Western blotting showed that the expression of BMP2,a marker molecule for endometrial decidualization,was significantly reduced(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).The abortion rate and embryo resorption rate were increased,and the number of embryos,uterine wet weight,uterine area and placenta wet weight were decreased in DEHP low-dose group compared to the control group stimulated by mifepristone,an abortifacient drug(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion:Subacute exposure to DEHP leads to impaired endometrial decidualization during early pregnancy and exacerbates the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes in mice.

Objective On the premise of meeting the image quality requirements of simulated location for pediatric radiotherapy,the simulated localizable CT parameters are optimized through phantom scanning to reduce the radiation dose.Methods CatPhan700 phantom was used to simulate the child's body,Philip 24-row large-aperture spiral simulated localizable CT was performed,and the CT images were obtained by scanning the phantom at different mAs and tube voltages.The mAs range was set at 60-400 mAs,the scanning was performed every 20 mAs interval,and the kV was set at 80,100,and 120 kV.Image evaluation was carried out using parameters such as image noise(N10 and mean SD),uniformity,low contrast resolution,high contrast resolution,and the stabilities of HU values of Air,Acrylic,50%bone,LDPE,20%bone,Teflon,Polystyrene,DelrinTM,Lung,PMP and Water.The CTDIVol and DLP automatically calculated by the simulated localizable CT system were read to evaluate the radiation dose.Results At 100 kV,as mAs increased,both CTDI and DLP showed upward trends,and the fitting results were linear correlated,with slopes of 0.034 5 and 0.932 4.Image noise was decreased nonlinearly with the increasing mAs.When mAs increased from 60 to 140 mAs,N10 decreased from 0.25%to 0.14%,and SD reduced from 3.74 HU to 2.54 HU.When mAs reached 180 mAs or higher,N10 fluctuated between 0.1%and 0.12%,the mean SD fluctuated between 2.0 and 2.5 HU,and the downward trends obviously slowed down.When mAs increased from 60 to 200 mAs,the low contrast resolution of the image dropped from 0.53 to 0.29.The image uniformity,high contrast resolution and HU values of different substances were less affected by mAs.The image quality of 100 kV and 200 mAs scanning was close to that of 120 kV scanning,but the image quality of 80 kV scanning failed to meet the clinical requirements.Conclusion In order to reduce the radiation dose as much as possible,the mAs should be set at 200 mAs when the tube voltage is set at 100 kV for a simulated cylinder with a diameter of 20 cm.In the actual simulation scanning for pediatric radiotherapy,the scanning parameters should be fine-tuned according to the phantom results and the actual physical characteristics of children to satisfy the optimization principle for radiation protection.
