Objective : Objective To investigate the demand for health management and influencing factors among occupational population at high risk of stroke, so as to provide insights into the development of stroke health management strategies among occupational population. Methods: Occupational population aged 40 to 60 years who participated in health examination were sampled from three tertiary hospitals in Luzhou City, Sichuan Province using a quota sampling method in the ratio of 4∶1∶1, from August to December 2020. Participants' blood biochemistry tests and health examination were collected through the examination reports, and the participants at high risk of stroke were screened using the assessment criteria for high-risk of stroke. Participants' general information and demand for health management were collected using questionnaire surveys. In addition, factors affecting the demand for health management were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 3 003 people who participated in health examination were investigated, and 1 062 participants met the assessment criteria for high risk of stroke, accounting for 35.36%. There were 1 000 men (94.16%) and 62 women (5.84%), with a mean age of (49.26±4.97) years. There were 414 professional and technical staff (39.50%). There were 709 participants (66.76%) with demand for health management, with the top three in the demand as health checkups (915 participants, accounting for 86.16%), health consultation (601 participants, accounting for 56.60%) and exercise guidance (560 participants, accounting for 52.73%), and 210 participants (19.77%) received health management. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that occupational population at high risk of stroke who received health management were more likely to have the demand for health management (OR=2.158, 95%CI: 1.479-3.149). Conclusions The occupational population at high risk of stroke have the demand for health management. Having received health management may affect the demand for health management among occupational population at high risk of stroke.

Objective:To explore the effect of early intermittent enteral nutrition (EN) in critically ill patients after cardiac surgery.Methods:We developed an early EN feeding regimen for critically ill patients after cardiac surgery. A prospective analysis was conducted on 178 critically ill patients admitted to the Cardiothoracic Surgery Intensive Care Unit of a tertiary hospital in Shanghai from May 2022 to May 2023. They were divided into the control group ( n=88) and the observation group ( n=90) using a random number table method. The control group received routine EN feeding, while the observation group received early intermittent EN feeding. Comparison between groups was performed in terms of the tolerability and interruption of EN administration, nutrition related outcome indicators, and prognosis indicators. Results:The observation group had significantly lower rates of abdominal distension, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting (or reflux), and EN interruption, as well as shorter duration of EN interruption, compared to the control group ( P<0.05). After 7 days of early EN, 87.8% of patients in the observation group met the calorie goal, which was significantly higher than that of 22.5% in the observation group ( P<0.05). The nutritional related indicators (serum prealbumin, hemoglobin, actual intake of nutritional fluids) were also better in the observation group patients compared to the control group ( P<0.05). The duration of mechanical ventilation and length of ICU stay in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the length of hospital stay between the two groups. Conclusion:Early EN program can improve the symptoms of feeding intolerance in patients, reduce the occurrence and duration of feeding interruption, increase the rate of calorie goal fulfillment, improve nutritional status,and promote patient recovery and outcome in critically ill patients after cardiac surgery.

Objective To describe the epidemiological characteristics of falls among hospitalized elderly patients in Shanghai,to explore the external and self-factors that affect falls in the elderly,and to provide evidence for the elderly to prevent falls.Methods All the injury cases collected from the hospital information system of a general hospital in Shanghai during 2020 and 2022 based on Haddon Model were taken as the research objects.The epidemiological characteristics were analyzed using constituent ratio,chi-square test and Logistic regression analysis.Results Falls occured in 11 152 cases(11.63%)within 95 880 hospitalized elderly patients aged 65 years old and over.The ratio of males to females was 0.49∶1.Falls were more likely to occur in females and those who lived with children,and the place was mainly home/residential institutions.The time distribution showed the fewest occurrence in February.The mainly injured part was the trunk and limbs with the nature of fracture.Multiple regression analysis showed that compared to males,65-75 years old,spring,married status and living with spouses,the risk factors of falls in elderly patients were female,older age,winter,not in marriage and living with children.Conclusion The elderly have a high risk of falls,which is influenced by a combination of factors such as personal health,the natural environment,and social support.Comprehensive measures should be taken to identify and address the risk of falls in the elderly,including personal health promotion,home environment optimization,harmonious family atmosphere,professional medical support,and social collaboration,in order to achieve effective prevention and management.

Objective To explore the current status of H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City,analyze its influencing factors,and provide a reference basis for the prevention and control of H.pylori infection.Methods A total of 677 residents from four districts of Sanya City were selected by overall stratified random sampling method,and were subjected to urea 14C breath test and questionnaire survey to calculate the positive rate of H.pylori in the natural population and analyze the influencing factors of H.pylori infection.Results A total of 606 residents were included,and the number of H.pylori positive detections was 261,with a positive detection rate of 38.5％.Among them,different ethnicity,marital status,smoking,eating vegetables and fruits,and literacy level were associated with H.pylori infection(P＜0.05);gender,age,BMI,alcohol consumption,drinking water source,betel quid chewing,and the number of cohabitants were not significantly associated with H.pylori infection(P＞0.05).Family infection was an independent risk factor for H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City,and Li ethnicity,frequent consumption of fruits and vegetables,and college and higher education level were independent protective factors for H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City.Conclusion The rate of H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City is lower than the national average.Consuming more fruits and vegetables and improving the awareness of hygiene protection are conducive to the prevention of H.pylori infection;and the promotion of the family and related members with the same examination and treatment is important to avoid aggregation of infection within the family.

In the field of healthcare service, it is crucial to optimize medical innovation services by combining the preferences of health service providers and demanders (i.e., stakeholders). The best-worst scaling (BWS) method is a recently developed stated preference method for assessing preferences with distinctive advantages. Nevertheless, there is a lack of a comprehensive introduction to stakeholder preference assessment using BWS, thus constraining its applications and promotion. This paper introduces the process of using BWS to assess service providers' preferences for the Shared Medical Appointment for diabetes (SMART), an integrated healthcare service of medicine and health management, in the hope of providing reference for researchers for promoting the use of BWS in implementation research.

In order to elucidate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of action of Zhengqing Fengtongning Sustained-release Tablets on knee osteoarthritis, this study created a knee osteoarthritis model using 0.2 mL 40 g·L~(-1) papain and randomly divided the rats into the model group, high-dose and low-dose groups of Zhengqing Fengtongning Sustained-release Tablets, and celecoxib group. All groups were given the drug for four weeks, with the diameter of their knee joint being measured during this period. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and Senna solid green staining were utilized to observe the pathology of knee joint tissue in SD rats. The initial therapeutic impact of Zhengqing Fengtongning Sustained-release Tablets on knee osteoarthritis in rats was assessed by monitoring the levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β) and interleukin-6(IL-6) in the plasma. Using a combination of non-targeted metabolomics and 16S rRNA techniques, researchers determined the variations in endogenous molecules and intestinal flora in rats and identified potential biomarkers. The results showed that Zhengqing Fengtongning Sustained-release Tablets improved the diameter of knee joint swelling, ameliorated the pathological damage of cartilage tissue, and reduced the plasma levels of IL-1β and IL-6 in rats with knee osteoarthritis. Metabolomics analysis identified 22 potential biomarkers associated with the modulatory effects of Zhengqing Fengtongning Sustained-release Tablets, including 5-hydroxytryptamine, corticosterone, methylmalonic acid, and other biomarkers, which were mainly involved in eight metabolic pathways, including tryptophan metabolism, vitamin K metabolism, steroid synthesis, and so on. The results of intestinal flora showed a decrease in the diversity of intestinal flora in the model group, an increase in the diversity of intestinal flora, and an improvement in the microecology of intestinal flora. Significant differences were found in Lachnospiraceae＿NK4A136＿group, Helicobacter, Lactobacillus, Bacteroides, and Parabacteroides. Finally, the results of the combined analysis showed that 22 biomarkers were correlated with five genera. The above results indicate that Zhengqing Fengtongning Sustained-release Tablets can improve the tissue morphology and structure of knee joints, reduce the level of plasma inflammatory factors, regulate the diversity of intestinal flora, and balance the metabolic pathways of steroid synthesis, vitamin K metabolism, and tryptophan metabolism to exert a therapeutic effect on knee osteoarthritis.
