		                        			Objective To investigate the expression of YWHAQ protein in gastric adenocarcinoma tissues and its correlation with clinical pathological features and prognosis. Methods A total of 127 patients with gastric cancer who underwent radical surgery were enrolled. Clinical data and postoperative cancer tissue samples were collected from the patients. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the protein expression of YWHAQ in gastric adenocarcinoma tissues. The relationship between YWHAQ expression and clinical pathological features and prognosis was analyzed. Bioinformatics prediction was performed to identify potential pathways regulated by YWHAQ in gastric adenocarcinoma. A protein-protein interaction network for YWHAQ was constructed using the STRING database. Results YWHAQ gene expression was significantly higher in gastric adenocarcinoma tissues than in normal tissues (P<0.05). The expression level of the YWHAQ protein was significantly correlated with age, tumor invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, and tumor stage (P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that patients with high YWHAQ expression had significantly poorer long-term survival than those with low expression (P<

		                        			Objective:To investigate the value of MRI in diagnosing the high expression of transcription factor E2F2 in breast cancer, in order to further evaluate the biological aggressiveness of breast cancer.Methods:The study was cross-sectional. The clinical and imaging data of 92 patients with breast cancer who were pathologically diagnosed in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from October 2014 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were female, aged 32 to 82 (56±11) years. All patients underwent MRI, including T 1WI, T 2WI, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and dynamic enhanced MRI. According to the immunohistochemical results, the patients were divided into E2F2 high expression group and E2F2 low expression group. Independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test or χ2 test were used to compare the clinical data, MRI features and pathological features of the two groups. Characteristics with P≤0.1 from univariate analyses were included in multivariate logistic regression to screen for independent risk factors predicting high expression of the transcription factor E2F2 in breast cancer. Results:Among 92 patients, 68 were in the high E2F2 expression group and 24 were in the low E2F2 expression group. There were significant differences between the two groups in peritumoral edema, type composition ratio of time-signal intensity curve, estrogen receptor expression, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 expression, endovascular cancer embolus and molecular type composition ratio (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that peritumoral edema alone ( OR=7.061, 95% CI 1.837—27.144, P=0.004) was an independent risk factor for predicting the high expression of transcription factor E2F2 in breast cancer. Conclusion:MRI show that peritumoral edema is an independent risk factor for predicting high expression of the breast cancer transcription factor E2F2, which is associated with the aggressiveness of breast cancer.

		                        			Objective:To analyze the hospitalization costs of delivery for postpartum women with different delivery methods, ages and comorbidities or complications, for references for medical institutions and medical insurance management departments to develop payment and compensation standards for inpatient delivery.Methods:The first page of medical records of hospitalized delivery women admitted to 8 large tertiary hospitals in Beijing from January 2018 to December 2021 were selected. Descriptive analysis was made on the mode of delivery, age, hospitalization expenses and cost structure of puerpera, as well as the hospitalization expenses of puerpera with different complications or complications. Wilcoxon rank sum test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, and Chi-squared test were used to statistically compare the level and structure differences between groups. Results:A total of 23 320 pregnant women were included, with an average age of 32.3 years. There were 13 605 cases of natural delivery and 9 715 cases of caesarean section. The median cesarean section rate in the right age group (<35 years old) and the elderly group (35-50 years old) were 36.73% and 56.58%, respectively, and the median hospital expenses were 5 865 yuan and 7 042 yuan, respectively. The median hospital expenses for natural delivery and caesarean section were 4 452 yuan and 10 033 yuan, respectively. The highest proportion of hospitalization expenses for natural delivery and cesarean section were treatment expenses (23.45%) and medicine expenses (29.19%), respectively. The median of hospitalization cost for women with≥2 comorbidities or complications (6 736 yuan) was higher than that for women with 1 comorbidities or complications (5 794 yuan).Conclusions:The hospitalization cost of cesarean section was significantly higher than that of natural delivery and the rate of cesarean section and the cost of delivery in women aged 35 and above were higher than those under 35 years old. The structure of hospitalization cost was different in different delivery modes, and the complications or complications had a greater impact on the average hospitalization expenses.

		                        			{L-End}Objective To investigate the influencing factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) that affect neck-shoulder-back among manufacturing workers. {L-End}Methods A total of 8 250 front-line workers from 27 manufacturing enterprises in Henan Province and Hubei Province were selected as the research subjects using cluster sampling method. The Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire was used to investigate the prevalence of neck-shoulder-back (include neck, shoulder, upper back, and lower back) WMSDs in the past year. The log-binomial model, principal component analysis (PCA) and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of WMSDs in the neck-shoulder-back. {L-End}Results The prevalence of WMSDs was 77.2%. The prevalence of neck-shoulder-back WMSDs was 50.9%. The prevalence ratios of WMSDs were relatively higher among the neck, shoulder, and upper back (all P<0.05). The results of PCA improved logistic regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of neck-shoulder-back WMSDs were individual factors, biomechanical factors, psychosocial factors and environmental factors. In terms of individual factors, the risk of neck-shoulder-back WMSDs was higher in females than in males (P<0.05). With the increase of age, length of service, and education level, the risk of neck-shoulder-back WMSDs increased among manufacturing workers (all P<0.05). The risk of neck-shoulder-back WMSDs of workers in textile, clothing, shoes and hats manufacturing industry was relatively lower than that in the other nine industries (all P<0.05). In terms of the biomechanical factors, spending a lot of effort to operate tools/machines, sitting for a long time at work,bending greatly bending and turning at the same time, neck leaning forward or maintaining this posture for a long time, neck twisting or maintaining this posture for a long time and uncomfortable position resulting in difficulty exerting exertion were all risk factors of neck-shoulder-back WMSDs among manufacturing workers (all P<0.05) Bending slightly for a long time was a protective factor for neck-shoulder-back WMSDs among manufacturing workers (P<0.05). In terms of the psychosocial factors, doing the same work every day, self-determination in resting time between works staff shortage, and frequent overtime work were risk factors for neck-shoulder-back WMSDs among manufacturing workers (all P<0.05). Adequate resting time was a protective factor for neck-shoulder-back WMSDs among manufacturing workers (P<0.01). In terms of environmental factors, working under cold or fluctuating temperature, having nothings to lean on, and soles slipping or falling at work were all risk factors for neck-shoulder-back WMSDs among manufacturing workers (all P<0.05). {L-End}Conclusion Manufacturing workers are prone to suffer from neck-shoulder-back WMSDs. The influencing factors include individual factors, biomechanical factors (force load and static load), psychosocial factors and environmental factors.

In 16 cases of late-onset ISOD, the median age at onset and diagnosis was 10.5 months and 34.0 months, respectively.The common clinical manifestations were hypotonia (13 cases), seizures (10 cases), movement disorders (9 cases), and ectopia lentis (6 cases). The most common brain MRI feature was pallidus changes (11 cases), followed by lesions of substantia nigra (5 cases), and cerebral atrophy (4 cases). Fourteen cases of late-onset ISOD showed a positive urinary sulfite test.The missense mutation of the SUOX gene was found in 9 cases.It suggested that brain MRI involvement of bilateral pallidus, high excretion of urine sulfites and the missense mutation of the SUOX gene were important diagnostic clues for late-onset ISOD.
