Objective To analyze the prevalence status of cardiometabolic risk factor (CMRF) and its aggregation among workers engaged in new forms of employment. Methods A total of 5 429 new employment workers (including couriers, online food delivery workers, and ride hailing drivers) who underwent health medical examinations at a tertiary hospital in Beijing City were selected as the research subjects using the judgment sampling method. Data on waist circumference, blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood lipid levels were collected to analyze their CMRF [central obesity, elevated blood pressure, elevated blood glucose, elevated triglycerides, and reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)] and their aggregation (with ≥ 2 of the above 5 risk factors) status. Results The detection rates of central obesity, elevated blood pressure, elevated blood glucose, elevated triglycerides, and reduced HDL-C were 61.2%, 38.2%, 29.5%, 40.9% and 22.6%, respectively. The detection rates of CMRF aggregation was 57.8%. The result of multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that male, age ≥45 years, smoking, overweight, and obesity were risk factors for CMRF aggregation (all P<0.05). Conclusion The detection rate of CMRF and its aggregation among workers with new forms of employment in Beijing City is relatively high. Targeted prevention and control efforts should be strengthened for high-risk populations, especially males, workers aged ≥45 years, smokers, and those who are overweight or obese.

Objective To study the effects of oncolytic adenoviruses ZD55 harboring IL-24 gene (ZD55-IL-24) on the apoptosis of human melanoma cell line A375. Methods The oncolytie adenoviruses ZD55-IL-24 were verified by PCR. Then, the viruses were propagated, purified, and titrated by HEK293 cell plaque assay. A375 cells were cultured, divided into three groups transfected with ZD55-1L-24, ZD55 fused with enhanced green fluorescent protein (ZD55-EGFP), and replication-deficient adenovirus ZD55 carrying IL-24 gene (AD-IL-24), respectively. The multiplicity of infection was 0.1, 1, 10 and 100, respectively.Subsequently, the eytotoxity of these viruses and proliferation of A375 cells were determined by crystal violet staining and methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, respectively. The expressions of EIA and IL-24 protein were detected by Western blot in A375 cells. Results PCR verified that the adenoviruses ZD55-IL-24 contained IL-24 gene without wild adenovirns contamination. Crystal violet staining revealed that ZD55-IL-24 had an obvious eytotoxic effect on A375 cells, and MTT assay indicated that ZD55-IL-24 inhibited the proliferation of A375 cells in a time-and concentration-dependent manner. As shown by Western blot analysis, ZD55-1L-24 expressed IL-24 and E1A protein in A375 cells with a high efficiency. Conclusions The oncolytic adenoviruses ZD55-IL-24 can efficiently express IL-24 gene, inhibit the proliferation of, and induce the apoptosis in A375 cells.
