Methods Data of newly diagnosed pneumoconiosis cases reported in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from 2013 to 2022 were collected, and epidemiological characteristics were analyzed using descriptive analysis method. Results A total of 972 newly diagnosed pneumoconiosis cases were reported in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from 2013 to 2022. Except for mica pneumoconiosis, 12 other types of pneumoconiosis were reported. Most of the cases were males, accounting for 97.0%. The diagnosis age of the cases of 40-<60 years old accounted for 77.4%, and the dust exposure age<30 years of the cases accounted for 96.4%. Silicosis was the most common type of pneumoconiosis, followed by coal workers' pneumoconiosis, accounting for 64.6% and 27.9%, respectively. The cases of stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ pneumoconiosis accounted for 77.7%, 14.9% and 7.4%, respectively. The regional distribution was mostly in Hechi City, accounting for 51.9%. Industry distribution was more common in non-ferrous metal mining, coal mining and washing industry, accounting for 64.9% in total. Most cases were reported in private enterprises and small to medium-sized enterprises, accounting for 53.7% and 76.6% respectively. The most common occupations were coal miners and drillers, accounting for 47.7% in total. Conclusion Newly diagnosed pneumoconiosis cases in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region show certain clustering characteristics in terms of disease type, region, enterprise characteristics, and occupation distribution. The prevention and treatment of pneumoconiosis in small and medium-sized private enterprises in key areas and key industries should be strengthened, especially for workers over 40 years old and with less than 30 years of dust exposure.

The causes of persistent pelvic pain in patients after comprehensive treatment was investigated, and the corresponding therapeutic effects after clinical treatment was observed.Results:Thirty-two tumor patients experienced persistent pain after comprehensive treatment, including 22 cases of cervical cancer and 10 cases of rectal cancer. The preoperative pain of the entire group of patients was evaluated using the digital grading method, with a pain score of (7.88±1.31) points. Among the 32 patients, there were 16 cases of rectovaginal fistula or ileovaginal fistula, 9 cases of vesicovaginal fistula, 5 cases of rectoperineal fistula, and 2 cases of vesicovaginorectal fistula. Thirty-two patients were initially treated with medication to relieve pain, and according to the ruptured organs, a fistula was made to the corresponding proximal intestinal canal and renal pelvis to intercept the intestinal contents and urine. However, the pain did not significantly be improved. The pain score of treatment with the above methods for one week was (8.13±1.13) points, and there was no statistically significant difference compared to preoperative treatment ( P=0.417). In the later stage, based on a comprehensive evaluation of whether the tumor had recurred, the value of organ preservation, the benefits of surgery, the balance between survival time and improving quality of life, pathological organ resection or repair was performed. The surgical methods included repair of leaks, local debridement combined with irrigation of proximal intestinal fluid, distal closure of the sigmoid colon combined with proximal ostomy, posterior pelvic organ resection, anterior pelvic organ resection, and total pelvic organ resection. One week after surgery, the patients' pain completely relieved or disappeared, with the pain score of (1.72±1.37) points, which was significantly divergent from the preoperative and initial surgical treatments ( P<0.001). Conclusions:Palliative pyelostomy and proximal enterostomy cannot effectively alleviate persistent pelvic floor pain. The fundamental way to alleviate pain is complete blocking of the inflammatory erosion of the intestinal fluid and urine.
