Background Unhealthy lifestyle behaviors may be associated with an increased risk of cardiometabolic risk factor aggregation (CMRF≥ 2), and few studies have focused on the correlation between the two in occupational populations. Objective To investigate the current status of CMRF≥2 and the compliance of healthy lifestyle in male occupational personnel, explore the effect of lifestyle on cardiometabolic risk, and provide reference for formulating healthy behavior promotion strategies and reducing cardiometabolic risk in occupational populations. Methods The study subjects were selected from male workers who completed occupational health examinations at an occupational disease prevention and control hospital in Shanxi Province from May to December 2023, and 15125 study subjects aged 18−60 years were finally included according to pre-determined inclusion and exclusion criteria. All subjects received a series of assessments including questionnaires (basic information, lifestyle habits, and occupational factors), physical examination, laboratory tests, and six cardiometabolic risk factors (central obesity, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, hypertriglyceridemia, low-density lipoprotein cholesterolemia, and hyperuricemia). A healthy lifestyle score was calculated based on six behavioral factors (smoking, drinking, physical activity, diet, sleep, sedentary behavior) and 1 point for one positive healthy behavior. The enrolled workers were then divided into three groups according to their total scores: 0−1 points (poor group), 2−3 points (moderate group), and 4−6 points (good group). Logistic regression models were used to analyze the statistical associations between lifestyle and CMRF≥2. Results The median age of the 15125 male study participants was 40 years, and the positive rate of CMRF≥2 was 53.5%. Adherence to moderate alcohol consumption was the most compliant healthy behavior (79.4%), followed by current non-smoking (41.7%), while adherence to adequate sedentary behavior (23.6%) and healthy eating (21.1%) were relatively low, and only 17.4% were able to adhere to four or more healthy lifestyle behaviors. After adjusting for confounders, when compared with the poor group high lifestyle score was found to be a protective factor for CMRF≥2 (moderate group: OR=0.70, 95%CI: 0.63, 0.77; good group: OR=0.66, 95%CI: 0.58, 0.75). In stratified analyses across different job types (coal miners, auxiliary workers, ground workers, and others), occupational stress (with or without), shift patterns (day shift, night shift, or rotating shift), dust exposure (with or without), and noise exposure (with or without), individuals with higher lifestyle scores exhibited a consistently lower risk of CMRF≥2. There was an interaction between shift pattern and lifestyle on CMRF≥2 (P_interaction<0.05). Conclusion This occupational group has a high positive rate of CMRF≥2 and a high prevalence of poor lifestyles with low adherence to some healthy behaviors. High healthy lifestyle scores are associated with a lower risk of aggregation of cardiometabolic risk factors, which may be reduced through lifestyle interventions.

Objective To analyze the incidence of prehypertension (PHTN) and hypertension of male workers in a coal mine and investigate the influencing factors. Methods A total of 10 155 male workers in a coal mine in Shanxi Province were selected as the study subjects using the judgment sampling method. Occupational medical examination was carried out to examine the prevalence of abnormal blood pressure (including PHTN and hypertension) and its influencing factors. Results The prevalence of abnormal blood pressure was 69.9%, with a PHTN prevalence of 44.2% and a hypertension prevalence of 25.7%. The results of multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of PHTN and hypertension increased with age, drinking frequency and body mass index (all P<0.05). Workers with a pulse rate≥100 times/min had a higher risk of PHTN and hypertension than those with a pulse rate of 60-100 times/min (all P<0.05). The risk of PHTN and hypertension in workers exposed to noise, silica dust or other dust was higher than those without such occupational hazard exposure (all P<0.05). The risk of hypertension in workers with abnormal blood glucose was higher than that in workers with normal blood glucose (P<0.05). Exposure to organic solvents was associated with a higher risk of hypertension (P<0.05). Conclusion The prevalence of PHTN and hypertension among male coal miners in this mine is relatively high. The individual factors such as age, alcohol consumption, pulse rate, and body mass index, along with occupational exposure factors such as noise, silica dust, and other dusts, are influencing factors for PHTN and hypertension.

Objective To analyze the prevalence of chronic diseases and its influencing factors of dust-exposed male workers in a coal mine. Methods A total of 9 782 dust-exposed male workers from a coal mine in Shanxi Province were selected as the study subjects using the purposive sampling method. Their occupational health examination results were collected to analyze the prevalence of chronic diseases and its influencing factors. Results The prevalence of dyslipidemia, hyperuricemia, hypertension and diabetes were 40.3%, 30.7%, 23.5% and 5.6%, respectively. The prevalence of chronic diseases was 64.8%. Among them, the prevalence of having one, two, three or more chronic diseases were 36.5%, 21.6% and 6.7%, respectively. The prevalence of comorbid chronic diseases was 28.3%, with the highest prevalence of concurrent dyslipidemia and hyperuricemia of 11.0%. The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of chronic disease was higher in workers <40 years old, smoking, overweight, obesity and total working years >20 years (all P<0.05). The results of multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that workers <40 years old, overweight, obesity and total working years >20 years were risk factors for having one chronic disease (all P<0.05). The workers <40 years old, smoking, overweight, obesity and total working years >20 years were risk factors for having two chronic diseases (all P<0.05). The workers <40 years old, smoking, alcohol consumption, overweight, obesity, other types of work, and working years >20 years were risk factors for having three or more chronic diseases (all P<0.05). Conclusion The prevalence of chronic diseases is high and the comorbidity of chronic diseases is common among dust-exposed male workers. The main influencing factors were age, smoking, alcohol consumption, overweight, obesity, type of work, and working year. Workers with more contributing factors have higher risk of chronic comorbidities.

Objective:To analyze the predictive value of CT coronary flow reserve fraction (CT-FFR) combined with coronary angiography in major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP).Methods:A total of 106 UAP patients treated in Wuhan Huangpi District People′s Hospital/Huangpi District People′s Hospital Affiliated to Jianghan University from April 2021 to April 2023 were retrospectively selected, among which 8 cases were lost to follow-up, and a total of 98 cases finally completed follow-up, and the occurrence of MACE within 1 year was counted, and they were classified into the MACE group (21 cases) and the non-MACE group (77 cases) according to whether or not MACE occurred. The general data, stenosis rate, CT-FFR and coronary plaque characteristics of the two groups were analyzed, and the correlation between each parameter index and B-type brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), Canadian angina pectoris (CCS) grade and the number of diseased vessels were analyzed. The predictive value was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve, and the relationship between each parameter and the occurrence of MACE was analyzed by Logistic.Results:There were statistical differences in BNP, CCS and the number of diseased vessels between the two groups ( P<0.05). The total plaque volume, stenosis rate, calcified plaque volume and plaque load in the MACE group were higher than those in the non-MACE group, the CT-FFR value was lower than that in the non-MACE group: (142.56 ± 18.94) mm 3 vs. (132.78 ± 15.43) mm 3, (68.22 ± 10.78)% vs. (58.42 ± 9.14)%, (9.35 ± 1.85) mm 3 vs. (8.05 ± 2.02) mm 3, 0.75 ± 0.15 vs. 0.62 ± 0.11, 0.68 ± 0.10 vs. 0.84 ± 0.08, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05); the parameters above mentioned were closely correlated with CCS grade and the number of diseased vessels ( P<0.05). The results of ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of MACE in UAP patients predicted by the combination of all parameters was 0.925, the sensitivity and specificity were 90.48% and 83.12%.The results of Logistic analysis showed that the stenosis rate, CT-FFR value, plaque volume, plaque load and calcified plaque volume were the risk factors for the occurrence of MACE in UAP patients ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The CT-FFR, stenosis rate and coronary plaque characteristics are different in UAP patients, and the combination of these parameters has certain clinical value in predicting the occurrence of MACE in patients.

Objective:To analyze the factors influencing prognosis of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) after surgical resection.Methods:The clinical data of patients diagnosed with ICC and who underwent surgical resection from December 2015 to December 2019 at the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Of 39 patients who were included in this study, there were 23 males and 16 females, with age of (54.1±7.2) years old. The body mass index, hepatitis B virus infection status, tumor diameter, degree of differentiation, microvascular tumor thrombus, lymph node metastasis, and serum levels of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) were analyzed as risk factors affecting postoperative recurrence and survival.Results:The median times to recurrence were significantly better in patients with a tumour length <5 cm (11 vs. 5 months), patients without microvascular tumor thrombus (54 vs. 6 months) and patients without lymph node metastasis (8 vs. 5 months) (all P<0.05). The median survival of patients with CA19-9≥100 U/ml was significantly shorter than that of patients with CA19-9<100 U/ml, (9 vs. 27 months, P<0.05). Tumor diameter>5 cm, microvascular tumor thrombus, lymph node metastasis, and CA19-9 ≥100 U/ml are risk factors affecting the recurrence time after ICC resection, CA19-9 ≥100 U/ml is a risk factor affecting survival time after ICC resection. Conclusion:Tumor diameter, microvascular tumor thrombus, lymph node metastasis and CA19-9 can be used to estimate the risk of ICC recurrence, and CA19-9 level can be used to estimate postoperative survival of ICC patients after resection.

This study attempts to develop a reference substance for the live bacteria count of Streptococcicosis live vaccines in order to evaluate the validity of live bacterial count in inspection and testing. We prepared a batch of live Streptococcus suis reference substance for live bacterial count, tested their physical property, purity, vacuum degree, remaining moisture, and determined their homogeneity, thermal stability and transportation stability. Moreover, we organized collaborative calibration to assign count values to the reference substance and determine the shelf life of the reference substance in 12 months. The results showed that the physical property, the purity, the remaining moisture and the vacuum degree of the reference substance were all in compliance with the requirements of the Chinese Veterinary Pharmacopoeia. The homogeneity test showed that the coefficient of variation of the count of the reference substance was less than 10%, indicating a good homogeneity. Transportation stability test showed that the reference substance remained active after 72 h transportation in summer and winter with the package of styrofoam boxes and ice packs. Thermal stability test showed that the reference substance could be stored for up to 3 months at -20 °C, or up to 21 days at 4 °C. According to the collaborative calibration, the reference vaccine was assigned a count value range of (8.5-12.1)×107 CFU/ampoule. The shelf life test showed that the reference substance was stable for 12 months when stored at -70 °C. The reference substance could provide a reference for the live bacterial count of Streptococcicosis live vaccines. Moreover, it could also be used as a reference to evaluate the quality of corresponding agar media.

Objective: To explore the indications and clinical value of orthotropic liver transplantation(OLT)in patients with advanced hepatic alveolar echinococcosis(HAE). Methods: The clinical data of 12 patients with advanced HAE who received OLT from January 2001 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, there were 7 males and 5 females, the age ranged from 16~58 years(median 42 years). The preoperative hepatic functions of 12 patients were 2 Child-Pugh class A, 3 class B and 7 class C, and the median model for end-stage liver disease(MELD)score was 19.5(8~23). Results: The mean time of OLT procedure and anhepatic phase in 12 patients were 456.25(456.25±44.98)min and 79.17(79.17±10.01)min respectively. The median intraoperative blood loss and hospital stay times were 1000 ml(600~4000 ml), and 29.5(15±58)days respectively. All the patients were followed-up for 0 months to 207 months. Among the 12 patients who underwent OLT, 2 recipients died of incurable infection of pulmonary infection on day 23 post-OLT, and multiple organ failure on day 32 post-OLT, respectively. One case developed lung metastasis 2 years after operation, and brain metastasis was found in the same patient after 4 years. The recurrence occurred 3 years after OLT in another patient, no evidence of HAE recurrence or extrahepatic metastasis was found in the remaining 8 patients. Conclusions OLT can provide patients with advanced HAE the best chance for long term disease-free and overall survival who lost the opportunity for radical hepatectomy.

Objective: To analyze the recent postoperative and long-term postoperative complications of open-splenectomy and disconnection in patients with portal hypertension. Methods: There were 1 118 cases with portal hypertension who underwent open splenectomy and azygoportal disconnection from April 2010 to September 2015 at Department of Surgery, People′s Liberation Army 302 Hospital. Retrospective case investigation and telephone follow-up were conducted in October 2016. All patients had history of upper gastrointestinal bleeding before operation. Short-term complications after surgery were recorded including secondary laparotomy of postoperative abdominal hemostasis, severe infection, intake disorders, liver insufficiency, postoperative portal vein thrombosis and perioperative mortality. Long-term data including postoperative upper gastrointestinal rebleeding, postoperative survival rate and incidence of postoperative malignancy were recorded, too. GraphPad Prism 5 software for data survival analysis and charting. Results: Postoperative short-term complications in 1 118 patients included secondary laparotomy of postoperative abdominal hemostasis(1.8%, 21/1 118), severe infection(2.9%, 32/1 118), intake disorders(1.0%, 11/1 118), liver dysfunction (1.6%, 18/1 118), postoperative portal vein thrombosis(47.1%, 526/1 118)and perioperative mortality(0.5%, 5/1 118). After phone call following-up, 942 patients′ long-term data were completed including 1, 3, 5 years postoperative upper gastrointestinal rebleeding rate(4.4%, 12.1%, 17.2%), 1, 3, 5-year postoperative survival rate(97.0%, 93.5%, 90.3%); the incidence of postoperative malignant tumors in 1, 3 and 5 years were 1.7%, 4.4% and 6.2%. Conclusions Reasonable choosing of surgical indications and timing, proper performing the surgery process, effective conducting perioperative management of portal hypertension are directly related to the patient′s short-term prognosis after portal hypertension. Surgical intervention can reduce the rates of patients with upper gastrointestinal rebleeding, improve survival, and do not increase the incidence of malignant tumors.

Objective To set up a living mice colonoscopy platform to establish an orthotopic model of colorectal cancer in mice under direct vision,and to observe its biological behavior such as metastasis.Methods Eighteen-week-old male C57/BL mice were anesthetized,and the intestinal lumen of the mice was examined by a self-developed living mice colonoscopy and Olympus URF-P5 ureteroscopy,respectively.The imaging effects of the two methods were compared.Human colon cancer HT-29 cells were injected into the colonic mucosa of BALB/c-nu mice under direct vision.The colonoscopy was performed on the 3rd,7th and 15th day after the injection to observe the tumor formation in the intestinal lumen.The mice were sacrificed when the body weight decreased significantly or cachexia appeared,and then the abdominal cavity was examined including the tumor formation and metastasis.Results The self-developed living mice colonoscopy platform can provide clear vision of enteric cavity,and no mice died in the colonoscopy examination.In vivo subcutaneous injection of HT-29 cells in mice was performed with a perforation rate of 15％,a mortality rate of 33.3％,a tumor formation rate of 62.5％,an abdominal metastasis rate of 60％,a liver metastasis rate of 25％,and an abdominal wall transfer rate of 25％.Conclusion The self-developed mice colonoscopy platform can be used for the study of colorectum in living mice.The imaging effect is no less than that of Olympus URF-P5 ureteroscopy.In addition,an orthotopic colorectal cancer model can be established by this platform combing with submucosal injection technology.
