Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics of new occupational pneumoconiosis in Zigong City from 2018 to 2022, and to provide the basis for further prevention and treatment of local pneumoconiosis. Methods The information of newly diagnosed and reported cases of pneumoconiosis in Zigong City from 2018 to 2022 was collected through the occupational disease and occupational health information monitoring system, and the characteristics of the distribution of pneumoconiosis in three regions, the composition of diseases and the length of service of exposure to dust were analyzed. Results From 2018 to 2022, the top 3 newly diagnosed pneumoconiosis diseases in Zigong City were silicosis, coal workers39; pneumoconiosis and asbestosis. Silicosis cases were mainly distributed in small and medium-sized employers, accounting for 81.41%. Coal workers39; pneumoconiosis was mainly distributed in large and medium-sized employers, accounting for 97.24%. Asbestosis mainly distributed in large scale employers, accounting for 96.36%. There was significant difference in dust handling age of different scale employers (H=11.453, P<0.05). The median ages of silicosis, coal workers' pneumoconiosis and other pneumoconiosis were 47.0 years, 52.0 years and 48.2 years, respectively. The median age of dust handling was 3.3 years, 22.0 years and 23.2 years, respectively. The age of onset of coal workers' pneumoconiosis was higher than that of silicosis and other pneumoconiosis (H=72.547, P<0.05), and the age of dust exposure of silicosis was shorter than that of coal workers' pneumoconiosis and other pneumoconiosis (H=10.453, P<0.05). Conclusion The current situation of pneumoconiosis in Zigong City is still severe, with obvious clustering in disease types and industries. Prevention and treatment of pneumoconiosis in key industries should be further strengthened to protect the health rights and interests of workers.

Objective :
To investigate and analyze the root and root canal morphology of mandibular first molars (MFMs) in the Tibetan population using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and to provide references for clinical root canal treatment in the Tibetan population.
Methods:
This study was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee, and informed consent was obtained from the patients. CBCT imaging data of 300 mandibular first molars from 300 Tibetan patients were included. Patient age, the number of roots in mandibular first molars were recorded. The morphology and incidence of mesial root and mesial root canals and the morphology and incidence of distal root and distal root canals were statistically analyzed by Vertucci classification.
Results :
There were 198 double-root teeth and 102 three-root teeth in the 300 mandibular first permanent molars. Among the three-rooted molars, 1 case had mesiolingual roots, and the rest had distolingual roots. The incidence rate of the distolingual root was 33.7%(101/300). The most common root canal configuration was Vertucci Ⅳ 65.7% (197/300), followed by Vertucci Ⅱ 20.3% (61/300) in the mesial roots. The overall incidence of middle mesial canals (MMCs) was 6% (18/300), with the highest incidence of MMCs in the 20-40 year-old group at 9% (9/100). The distal roots canals of single-distal-rooted mandibular first molars were mainly Vertucci Ⅰ 66.8% (133/199), followed by Vertucci Ⅱ 14.6% (29/199) and Vertucci Ⅳ 11.6% (23/199). For the mandibular first permanent molars with two distal roots, 96% (97/101) of the distal buccal roots and 100% (101/101) of the distal lingual roots were Vertucci Ⅰ root canals.
Conclusion
The root and root canal morphology of mandibular first permanent molars in a Tibetan population is complex and variable. Approximately one-third of patients have distolingual roots, and clinicians should carefully explore the root canals under the guidance of CBCT.

Objective To characterize surgical outcomes of supra-cardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC), investigate risk factors for postoperative death, and explore informed LASSO machine learning methods to solve "small sample size problem" in research of rare congenital heart diseases. Methods A retrospective analysis of 241 patients with supra-cardiac TAPVC who underwent surgical repair in Guangdong Provincial People39;s Hospital from 2009 to 2019 was conducted, including 179 males and 62 females with a median surgical age of 71 (33, 232) d. Detailed clinical data of the postoperative death-related factors were extracted. Univariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to initially screen potential risk factors for postoperative death. Factors with P鈮?.05 were retained. To solve the limitation of small sample size and the "P>n" problem, we proposed a novel LASSO method for conducting multivariable Cox regression analysis that was capable of bringing in findings of related studies to improve analysis power and to reduce false-negative findings. Results 聽 聽Univariable Cox analyses showed several potential clinical risk factors, among which highly significant factors (P<0.001) included: surgical weight鈮?.5 kg (HR=16.00), main pulmonary artery diameter (HR=0.78), prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass time (HR=1.21), aortic block time (HR=1.28), and postoperative ventilator-assisted time (HR=1.13/d). LASSO multivariable analysis revealed that independent risk factors for postoperative death included cardiopulmonary bypass time (aHR=1.308/30 min), age (aHR=0.898), postoperative ventilator-assisted time (aHR=1.023/d), weight鈮?.5 kg (aHR=2.545), right vertical venous return (aHR=1.977), preoperative pulmonary venous obstruction (aHR=1.633) and emergency surgery (aHR=1.383). Conclusion 聽 聽Our proposed informed LASSO method can use previous studies39; results to improve the power of analysis and effectively solve the "P>n" and small sample size limitation. Cardiopulmonary bypass time, surgical age, postoperative ventilator-assisted time, weight, right vertical venous return, preoperative pulmonary venous obstruction, and emergency surgery are risk factors for postoperative death of supra-cardiac TAPVC.

Objective To review the characteristics of patients who underwent atrioventricular septal defects (AVSD) repair with prosthetic valve ring implantation in our hospital, and to analyze the safety and effectiveness of this intervention. Methods The clinical data of all patients diagnosed with AVSD who received surgery repair and prosthetic valve ring implantation from January 1, 2018 to July 12, 2020 in Guangdong Provincial People39;s Hospital were collected and analyzed. There were 22 patients with 9 males and 13 females at a median age of 35.00 (14.10, 53.00) years. There were 9 (40.9%) patients with prosthetic half or full rings placed on the left atrioventricular valve and 18 (81.8%) patients with prosthetic half or full rings placed on the right atrioventricular valve. Results The median postoperative hospital stay was 7.00 (6.00, 8.80) d, and the postoperative mechanically assisted ventilation time was 11.00 (6.25, 19.00) h. There were 2 (9.1%) patients of moderate or higher postoperative atrioventricular valve regurgitation, 1 on the left and 1 on the right. There was one patient (4.5%) of the postoperative residual septal defect. There was no left ventricular inflow or outflow tract obstruction and no postoperative residual atrial septal defect during the follow-up of 152.00 (124.00, 1 030.00) d. Conclusion Implantation of a prosthetic ring is safe and effective in patients with AVSD, and the structural strength of the ring may be improved after the implantation. The physiological development of the AVSD annulus after prosthetic ring implantation and the results of long-term follow-up needs further attention.

Methods:
Permanent residents at ages of more than 18 years were recruited from 17 communities in Nanshan District, Shenzhen City using the stratified multistage random sampling method from July to November, 2018. Participants39; demographic features, smoking, smoking cessation and exposure to secondhand smoke were collected using the Individual Questionnaire for 2018 Chinese Adult Chronic Disease and Nutrition Surveillance. The factors affecting current smoking were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
Totally 1 700 questionnaires were allocated, and 1 625 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 95.59%. The respondents included 714 men and 911 women, with a male to female ratio of 1∶1.27, and had a mean age of ( 45.13±13.59 ) years. The prevalence of current smoking was 15.51%, with 28.15% prevalence in men and 5.60% in women. The mean age of starting daily smoke was ( 21.00±5.52 ) years, and the mean daily smoking frequency was (13.53±9.15) cigarettes/d. The prevalence of smoking cessation was 6.58%, with 10.64% in men and 3.40% in women, and the prevalence of exposure to secondhand smoke was 41.42%, including 46.63% in men and 37.32% in women. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that an educational level of junior high school ( OR=1.683, 95%CI: 1.088-2.602 ), an educational level of high school/technical secondary school/vocational school (OR=1.687, 95%CI: 1.185-2.402), an occupation of farmers ( OR=2.514, 95%CI: 1.404-4.500 ), and an occupation of commercial and service personnel ( OR=1.939, 95%CI: 1.093-3.439 ) were associated with current smoking.
Conclusion
The prevalence of current smoking is low among residents in Nanshan District, but the prevalence of current smoking in women is higher than the national level. Educational level and occupation are main factors affecting current smoking.

Objective:
To learn the activities of daily living(ADL)of the elderly in Chongqing and its influencing factors,so as to provide basis for developing ADL intervention measures for the elderly.
Methods:
Multi-stage sampling method was used to select the elderly aged 65 years or over from 2-3 communities each in 11 districts or counties of Chongqing. They were surveyed by ADL scale including physical activities of daily living(PADL)and instrumental activities of daily living(IADL). The influencing factors for ADL disability were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression models.
Results:
Totally 1 341 valid questionnaires out of 1 400 distributed were recovered,with a response rate of 95.79%. There were 596(44.44%)people with ADL disability,among whom 321(53.86%)cases were mild and 275(46.14%)cases were apparently impaired. There were 385(28.71%)suffered from PADL and 575(42.88%)suffered from IADL. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age of 70 years old and over(OR:2.858-7.507,95%CI:2.119-11.816),not living in downtown(OR=2.073-3.709,95%CI:1.434-5.613),having commercial insurance(OR=3.202,95%CI:1.419-7.223)and suffering from at least one chronic disease(OR:2.909-5.629,95%CI:1.562-10.681)were the risk factors for ADL disability in the elderly,while having a diploma or above(OR=0.236,95%CI:0.090-0.621),employing a caregiver(OR=0.466,95%CI:0.260-0.835)and monthly income of 1 000 to less than 4 000 yuan(OR:0.480-0.664,95%CI:0.274-0.923)were the protective factors.
Conclusions
The rate of ADL impairment is 44.44% in the elderly aged 65 years or over,and is associated with old age,living away from downtown,participation in commercial insurance and suffering from chronic diseases.

Objective:
To analyze the characteristics of perioperative mortality (POM) in oral maxillofacial head and neck cancer patients.
Methods:
A retrospective study was adapted for head and neck cancer patients who were treated and had POM in the department of oral maxillofacial & head and neck oncology in Shanghai Ninth People′s Hospital from Jan 1999 to Dec 2019. Demographic information, disease characteristic and clinical records were collected. The factors of POM were classified into surgical complication, medical complication, mixed complication (surgical and medical) and personal complication. SPSS 17.0 software was used to analyze the cause composition for POM under different condition.
Results :
55 patients were included: 39 were male, and 16 were female. A total of 12 patients had a smoking history. Furthermore, 28 patients had general comorbidities. 20 underwent preoperative radiotherapy and 9 received preoperative chemotherapy. Squamous cell carcinoma was the most frequent pathological diagnosis in 37 patients. A total of 9 patients had tumors in the maxilla and skull base. In addtition, 4 patients had POM preoperatively, 1 patient had POM within the operation, and 50 patients had POM postoperatively. The leading causes of death were as follows: rupture of the carotid artery was the most frequent (8), and the surgical complication of pulmonary infection was the main medical complication (6). Pulmonary infection and hemorrhage were regarded as the main mixed complication (4). Two patients had POM due to personal complications. The higher the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, the higher the proportion of medical factors in POM (P=0.039).
Conclusion
The composition of POM in oral maxillofacial- head and neck cancer (OMHNC) patients was complicated. Carotid artery rupture was the most common and fatal surgical complication, especially for those who underwent preoperative radiotherapy. Pulmonary infection was the most frequent medical complication, and those who had a higher ASA grade tended to have more complication.
