Background Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is a prevalent occupational health problem in workplace settings, with non-steady noise exposure being particularly widespread. Although kurtosis-adjusted equivalent sound level (\begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document}) methods based on linear regression are available to assess hearing damage, the complexity of kurtosis effects necessitates introducing new metrics through nonlinear regression to improve predictive accuracy for hearing loss from non-steady noise exposure. Objective To examine the adjustment terms [\begin{document}$ \mathrm{lg}(\beta _{N}/{\beta }_{G}) $\end{document}] and coefficients (λ) of \begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document} using nonlinear regression and evaluate the method’s effectiveness in assessing occupational hearing loss associated with non-steady noise exposure. Methods A cross-sectional study design was employed, enrolling 1034 manufacturing workers and evaluating noise exposure to estimate hearing loss metrics. Quantile regression analysis quantified the proportional contributions of influencing factors for noise-induced permanent threshold shift at 3, 4, and 6 kHz frequencies (NIPTS₃₄₆). \begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document} was computed using multiple linear regression and nonlinear least squares optimization. Paired t-tests analyzed predictive efficacy before and after kurtosis adjustment to evaluate its impact on ISO 1999 NIPTS₃₄₆ predictions. Chow tests compared the similarity of logistic regression curves for high-frequency noise-induced hearing loss (HFNIHL) incidence between non-steady noise (\begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document}) and steady noise (\begin{document}$ {{L}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document}), thereby validating the effectiveness of \begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document}. Results The quantile regression analysis showed that kurtosis was a significant indicator of occupational hearing loss risk from non-steady noise (contribution rate was 27.5%, P<0.05). The linear regression and nonlinear least squares methods obtained six different combinations of coefficients (λ) and adjustment terms [\begin{document}$ \mathrm{lg}(\beta _{N}/{\beta }_{G}) $\end{document}]. Incorporating these \begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document} adjustments into the ISO 1999 predictive model significantly reduced NIPTS underestimation (from 14.2 dB HL with \begin{document}$ {{L}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document} to 11.5–5.6 dB HL with \begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document}, P < 0.001). The model \begin{document}$ {{{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}\text{,6}}=L}_{\mathrm{E}\mathrm{X},8\;\mathrm{h}}+7.9\mathrm{lg}({{\beta }_{N}}/{10}) $\end{document} achieved the most significant improvement, reducing underestimation by 8.7 dB HL. The logistic curve analysis further demonstrated that all \begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document} dose-response relationships for non-steady noise aligned more closely with the steady noise group than \begin{document}$ {{L}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document}, with \begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}\text{,6}} $\end{document} showing the smallest divergence (difference: 4.1%). Conclusions \begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document} demonstrates superior efficacy in assessing the risk of occupational hearing loss induced by non-steady noise exposure. The \begin{document}$ {{L'}}_{\text{EX,}\text{8}\text{ h}} $\end{document} metric, constructed by calculating adjustment terms and coefficients through nonlinear regression analysis, exhibits greater effectiveness than linear regression methods in evaluating occupational hearing loss associated with non-steady noise exposure.

Objective:To study the current status of longitudinal extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) in extremely preterm infants (EPIs) and to develop a prediction model based on clinical data from multiple NICUs.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2018, EPIs admitted to 32 NICUs in North China were retrospectively studied. Their general conditions, nutritional support, complications during hospitalization and weight changes were reviewed. Weight loss between birth and discharge > 1SD was defined as longitudinal EUGR. The EPIs were assigned into longitudinal EUGR group and non-EUGR group and their nutritional support and weight changes were compared. The EPIs were randomly assigned into the training dataset and the validation dataset with a ratio of 7∶3. Univariate Cox regression analysis and multiple regression analysis were used in the training dataset to select the independent predictive factors. The best-fitting Nomogram model predicting longitudinal EUGR was established based on Akaike Information Criterion. The model was evaluated for discrimination efficacy, calibration and clinical decision curve analysis.Results:A total of 436 EPIs were included in this study, with a mean gestational age of (26.9±0.9) weeks and a birth weight of (989±171) g. The incidence of longitudinal EUGR was 82.3%(359/436). Seven variables (birth weight Z-score, weight loss, weight growth velocity, the proportion of breast milk ≥75% within 3 d before discharge, invasive mechanical ventilation ≥7 d, maternal antenatal corticosteroids use and bronchopulmonary dysplasia) were selected to establish the prediction model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the training dataset and the validation dataset were 0.870 (95% CI 0.820-0.920) and 0.879 (95% CI 0.815-0.942), suggesting good discrimination efficacy. The calibration curve indicated a good fit of the model ( P>0.05). The decision curve analysis showed positive net benefits at all thresholds. Conclusions:Currently, EPIs have a high incidence of longitudinal EUGR. The prediction model is helpful for early identification and intervention for EPIs with higher risks of longitudinal EUGR. It is necessary to expand the sample size and conduct prospective studies to optimize and validate the prediction model in the future.

Objective To observe the expression and trends of tight junction proteins Occludin and zonula occlu-den-1(ZO-1)in blood-brain barrier(BBB)of rats with traumatic brain injury(TBI),and to explore the interven-tion effect of cannabidiol(CBD)on the BBB.Methods The TBI model of rat was prepared by modified"Feeney free fall method"and randomly divided into three groups:the sham-operated group(Sham group),the model group(TBI+vehicle group)and the CBD intervention group(TBI+CBD group),with 24 rats in each group.Each group was subdivided into six time points:8 h,1,2,3,5 and 7 d after injury.The expression of Occludin and ZO-1,which are closely related to the permeability of BBB,was detected by immunohistochemistry,immuno-fluorescence staining and Western blot at different points.The permeability of BBB was detected by sodium fluores-cein assay.Results The results of immunohistochemistry showed that compared with Sham group,the positive ex-pression of Occludin and ZO-1 decreased with time after brain trauma(P<0.05),and both reached the lowest level at 2 d.The expression levels of Occludin and ZO-1 were up-regulated after 1 d of CBD intervention(P<0.05).Immunofluorescence staining showed a similar trend to Western blot results,with Occludin and ZO-1 fluo-rescence expression intensity and protein expression reduced after TBI compared with Sham group(P<0.05).And the expression levels of Occludin and ZO-1 were up-regulated after 2 d of CBD intervention(P<0.05).The results of fluorescein sodium experiment showed that the BBB integrity of brain tissue was destroyed after TBI,and the permeability increased after TBI(P<0.01).The permeability of BBB decreased after CBD intervention(P<0.05).Conclusion The expression of tight junction proteins Occludin and ZO-1 decreases after TBI,and the permeability of BBB is disrupted,and CBD intervention reverses the disruption of the BBB by TBI.

Objective To investigate testicular damage in traumatic brain injury(TBI)rats and to analyze the in-terventional effects of cannabidiol(CBD)on TBI-induced testicular damage.Methods 18 Sprague Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into three groups:the sham operation group(Sham group),model group(TBI group)and treatment group(TBI+CBD group).HE staining was used to observe the testicular histopathological changes in the rat testis.ELISA was used to detect testosterone level in rat serum.TUNEL staining was utilized to observe apoptosis,while immunofluorescence staining,Western blot and RT-qPCR were employed to evaluate Bax,Bcl-2,Cleaved Caspase-3 and TNF-α protein and mRNA expression.Results HE staining showed pathological changes in the testes of TBI rats compared with those in the Sham group.ELISA assay showed a decrease in testosterone levels in the TBI group compared to the Sham group,but there was no significant difference(P＞0.05).Immunofluores-cence results showed that the intensity of Bax fluorescence expression increased in the TBI group compared with the Sham group(P＜0.01),whereas the intensity of Bax fluorescence decreased and the intensity of Bcl-2 fluorescence increased in the rats after the CBD intervention(P＜0.01).Western Blot results showed that CBD treatment in rats decreased the protein levels of testicular apoptosis-related proteins(Bax and Cleaved Caspase-3,all P＜0.05)and inflammation-related proteins(TNF-α,P＜0.01),and increased the protein level of the anti-apoptotic protein,Bcl-2(P＜0.05).The trend of RT-qPCR results was similar,with mRNA expression of Bax(P＜0.05)and TNF-α(P＜0.01)decreased and mRNA expression of Bcl-2 increased after CBD intervention compared with the TBI group(P＜0.05).Conclusion TBI induces testis injury,and CBD treatment effectively repairs apoptosis and in-flammatory in testicular tissue of TBI rats.

Objective:To compare the consistency of lymphoma multigene detection panels based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) with FISH detection of B-cell lymphoma gene rearrangement.Methods:From January 2019 to May 2023, fusion genes detected by lymphoma-related 413 genes that targeted capture sequencing of 489 B-cell lymphoma tissues embedded in paraffin were collected from Henan Cancer Hospital, and the results were compared with simultaneous FISH detection of four break/fusion genes: BCL2, BCL6, MYC, and CCND1. Consistency was defined as both methods yielding positive or negative results for the same sample. The relationship between fusion mutation abundance in NGS and the positivity rate of cells in FISH was also analyzed.Results:Kappa consistency analysis revealed high consistency between NGS and FISH in detecting the four B-cell lymphoma-related gene rearrangement ( P<0.001 for all) ; however, the detection rates of positive individuals differed for the four genes. Compared with FISH, NGS demonstrated a higher detection rate for BCL2 rearrangement, a lower detection rate for BCL6 and MYC rearrangement, and a similar detection rate for CCND1 rearrangement. No correlation was found between fusion mutation abundance in NGS and the positivity rate of cells in FISH. Conclusions:NGS and FISH detection of B-cell lymphoma gene rearrangement demonstrate overall good consistency. NGS is superior to FISH in detecting BCL2 rearrangement, inferior in detecting MYC rearrangement, and comparable in detecting CCND1 rearrangement.

Objective:To explore the psychological experience and demand of parents of children with delayed recovery after congenital heart disease surgery.Methods:This study adopted phenomenological research methods from qualitative research. Using the purposive sampling method, parents of postoperative delayed recovery children with congenital heart disease who met the inclusion criteria were selected as the research objects from October to November 2019 at Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the parents of the children, and the data were analyzed by Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results:Finally, 13 parents of children with delayed recovery after congenital heart disease surgery were included. According to the interview results, four themes were extracted, which were negative psychological experience of parents of children with delayed recovery, positive psychological experience and expectation change of parents, heavy economic burden of parents and diversified needs of parents.Conclusions:During the delayed recovery period, psychological experience of parents is complex and their needs are diverse. The nursing staff should identify and pay attention to the causes of the negative psychological experience of the parents of the children, timely channel their negative emotions and strengthen the positive psychological experience in many aspects. They can assist parents to seek social help to reduce physical and mental pressure and meet the diverse needs of parents by providing high-quality nursing services and multi-channel information support.

The goal of Medical Immunology is to enable students to pay attention to integration of immunology theory with clini-cal practice,be familiar with professional English,consciously pay attention to cutting-edge knowledge,and can learn independently and lifelong.However,existing teaching models lack explanation of clinical disease related events,and arrangement of experimental content and projects is seriously disconnected from clinical practice,scientific research on solving clinical problems is clearly insuffi-cient.We established a"B to B"cycle model for immunology teaching by starting from clinical practical problems(Bedside),return to basic research(Bench),and then solve clinical problem(Bedside),which will comprehensively cultivate senior medical profession-als with clinical competence,scientific research thinking ability,innovative spirit,and international perspective.
