Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of occupational diseases in Gansu Province, China in 2010-2017, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of occupational diseases. Methods: The cluster sampling method was adopted to make statistical analysis of 1339 cases of occupational disease reported by "occupational disease and occupational health information monitoring system" in Gansu province from 2010 to 2017, to investigate the diseases, regions and industries of occupational diseases in June 2018. Results: A total of 1339 cases of occupational diseases (39 types, 8 classes) were diagnosed and reposed in 2010-2017. The three most frequent diseases were pneumoconiosis (87.53%, 1172/1339), occupational poisonings (5.83%, 78/1339), and occupational ear, nose, and throat (ENT) diseases (3.14%, 42/1339). The cases of silicosis accounted for 54.61% (640/1172) of all cases of pneumoconiosis, the second was coalworker pneumoconiosis, which accounted for 38.57% (452/1172). In the cases of occupational poisonings, 32.05% (25/78) suffered from carbon monoxide poisoning. Patients with occupational diseases were reported in 14 districts of Gansu, mostly in Lanzhou (27.52%, 347/1261), Jinchang (16.57%, 209/1261), and Baiyin (14.20%, 179/1261). The reported cases are mainly concentrated in mining (71.56%, 468/654) and manufacturing (21.87%, 143/654), the types of state-owned economy (55.63%, 692/1244) and private economy (33.68%, 419/1244), large (43.41%, 540/1244) and small enterprises (35.21%, 438/1244) in 2010-2017 in Gansu. Conclusion The pneumoconiosis caused by silicious and coal dust and the occupational poisonings caused by carbon monoxide seem to be the main occupational hazards in Gansu province. Occupational diseases occur in all districts of Guangzhou and in various industries. The state-owned economy and private sector, large and small enterprises should be the focuses of occupational health supervision.

Objective: To verify the accuracy of oxygen concentration (FiO₂) of modified oxygen treatment with Venturi and humidity system. Methods: Patients just after ventilator weaning and before the removal of tracheal intubation/tracheotomy tube, who admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from May 1st to December 15th in 2017, were enrolled. All patients were given a modified oxygen treatment with Venturi and humidity system, and the oxygen flow rate (Flow) of the Venturi device and the oretical value of FiO₂ were adjusted according to the patient's condition. Patients were divided into five groups based on doctor's orders: Flow 3 L/min FiO₂ 0.24, Flow 3 L/min FiO₂ 0.26, Flow 6 L/min FiO₂ 0.28, Flow 6 L/min FiO₂ 0.30, Flow 9 L/min FiO₂ 0.35. The value of FiO₂ at the inhalation end of patients of each group was measured by TSI airflow analyzer, and the consistency between the measured value of FiO₂ at the inhalation end and the FiO₂ marked value of Venturi was compared and analyzed. Results: When the FiO₂ theoretical value of Venturi were adjusted to 0.24, 0.26, 0.28, 0.30, and 0.35, the measured values of FiO₂ at the inhalation end of patients were 0.38±0.05, 0.38±0.05, 0.40±0.04, 0.41±0.04, and 0.77±0.11, respectively, which were all significantly higher than the theoretical value of FiO₂ (all P < 0.01). The difference between the measured value of FiO₂ at the inhalation side and the FiO₂ value of the Venturi annotated and the difference rate were both "V"-shaped, both of which decreased with the increase in theoretical value of FiO₂ to a Flow of 9 L/min and a theoretical value of FiO₂ 0.35, the accuracy was the worst, with the FiO₂ difference of 0.42±0.11, and the FiO₂ difference rate of (121.6±36.5)%. Conclusion There is a difference between the measured value and the theoretical value of FiO₂ at the inhalation end of the modified Venturi oxygen therapy humidification system, which needs to be paid attention to during clinical oxygen therapy.

Objective To investigate the causes and managements of postoperative complications of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation(PFNA)in treating intertrochanteric fractures. Methods A total of 155 patients with intertrochanteric fractures were treated with PFNA from January 2011 to December 2017.Causes and managements of postoperative complications were analyzed and discussed. Results At an average follow-up of 48 months(range ,12~72 months) ,the rate of good postoperative recovery in hip function was 96.0% . Among 155 patients ,the internal fixation-associated postoperative complications occurred in 15(9.7% )patients.Details were as follows :7 cases had spiral blade breakage into the femoral head or inwardly ,in whom 5 cases received artificial joint replacement whereafter.5 cases had coxa vara ,mainly in patients with obvious posterior fracture of the femoral intertrochanter with obviously bone fragments.3 cases had delayed fracture healing due to the fracture damaging calcar femorale ,or extensive soft tissue dissection during the operation on small trochanter. The Harris function score was 82 points. Conclusions The location of the PFNA spiral blade ,as an important factor ,is correlated with postoperative complications ,while severe osteoporosis ,unstable fractures ,and poor fracture reduction increase the incidence of surgical complications.
