Dimethyl oxalate is one of the occupational toxic chemicals and causes strong renal toxicity. On May 16, 2023, a patient with acute dimethyl oxalate poisoning was admitted to Dingxi People's Hospital. The patient presented with nausea, vomiting, lumbar distension, weakness, poor appetite, anuria, and rapidly progressing acute kidney injury. Renal biopsy confirmed acute oxalate nephropathy. After symptomatic supportive treatments such as blood purification, anti-oxidative stress, glucocorticoid, fluid supplementation, alkalized urine, anti-infection, controlling blood pressure, calcium supplementation and anemia correction, the patient's symptoms disappeared, and the kidney function basically returned to normal. This case suggested that the etiology of patients with acute kidney injury must be clearly identified, and renal biopsy was an important examination method. For patients suffering from acute dimethyl oxalate poisoning, comprehensive treatment based on blood purification should be performed as soon as possible, aiming to improve the prognosis.

Objective: To explore the effect of simulated gas of thermobaric bomb charge explosion on cognitive function and the related mechanism of damage. Methods: In January 2022, thirty-two SPF rats were selected and randomly divided into control group, exposed group 1, 2 and 3 (the exposure time of the simulated gas of the explosion of the thermobaric bomb charge was 5 min, 10 min and 15 min, respectively) according to random number table method, with 8 rats in each group. The simulated gas of the explosion of the thermobaric bomb charge were CO 0.15%, CO(2) 3%, NO 0.1%, O(2) 15%, and the rest were N(2). After 30 days of exposure, water maze was used to detect the learning and memory function of rats. Golgi staining was used to observe the number distribution and morphological structure of hippocampal neurons in rats. Western blot was used to detect the expression of Tau-5, pSer262, pSer396, pThr181 and pThr231 proteins in rats. Repeated measure ANOVA was used to compare the design data of repeated measure, one-way ANOVA was used for multi-group mean comparison, and LSD method was used for pound-wise comparison. Results: There were significant differences in the results of repeated measurement ANOVA of the water maze localization navigation test (F=80.98, P<0.001), and there was an interaction between the group and the training days (F=2.16, P=0.022). There were significant differences in escape latency of rats at the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th days among all groups (P<0.05). The results of spatial exploration showed that the frequency of rats crossing the platform was significantly different among all groups (F=4.49, P=0.011). The frequency of rats crossing the platform in exposed group 2 and exposed group 3 was lower than that in control group, and the frequency of rats crossing the platform in exposed group 3 was lower than that in exposed group 1 (P<0.05). With the increase of exposure time, the number of hippocampal neurons decreased, and the dendrite spine density of neurons in CA1 region decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, there was no significant difference in the relative expression level of Tau-5 protein in all exposed groups (P>0.05), but the expression level of pSer262 protein was significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the protein expressions of pSer396, pThr181 and pThr231 in exposed group 2 and exposed group 3 were significantly increased (P<0.05) . Conclusion: The simulated gas of the explosion of the thermobaric bomb charge may contribute to the development of cognitive dysfunction by damaging hippocampal neurons with aberrant phosphorylation of Tau proteins.

Objective: To measure and compare the difference of personal attenuation rating (PAR) of the workers wearing foam earplugs before and after the training, and to evaluate the effect of ear protector wearing training on the noise protection. Methods: In February 2023, 94 workers exposed to noise in a machinery manufacturing factory were selected as subjects. The production noise in the workplace was measured and subjects were trained to wear earplugs. The PAR values of wearing 3M 1110 foam test earplugs were measured and recorded before and after the training by using the fit testing of hearing protection device. The differences between the actual PAR values with nominal values and the noise attenuation values in related standards were compared, and the protective effect of hearing protection device before and after training was evaluated. Results: The average age of the subjects was (36.76±11.48) years old, the average length of service was (16.34±11.64) years, and the average exposure time to noise was (15.67±11.64) years. The noise detection results of the subjects' posts were ranged from 80.1 to 94.3 dB (A). The results of subjects wore 3M 1110 foam test earplugs for fit testing showed that the binaural PAR value after training was (19.3±6.4) dB (A), which was significantly higher than that before training (11.1±7.4) dB (A) (t=13.31, P<0.001). After training, 11 people (11.70%) could reach the corrected noise reduction value (NRR value), 26 people (27.66%) could reach the standard of single noise reduction value (SNR value) ×0.6, and 84 people (89.36%) could reach the standard of (NRR-7) /2. The under protection rate of hearing protectors after training (7.45%) was significantly lower than that before training (45.74%), and the difference of different protection levels before and after training was statistically significant (χ(2)=40.83, P<0.001) . Conclusion: It is suggested that enterprises should use the fit testing instead of nominal value estimation to evaluate the noise reduction effect of hearing protection device. Special training on the selection and use of hearing protection device should be strengthened, so as to ensure that workers wear them correctly and improve the protective effect of hearing protection device.
目的测量和比较佩戴泡沫耳塞的工人在培训前后个人衰减等级(PAR)的差异,并评估佩戴护耳器培训对噪声防护的影响。研究方法2023 年 2 月,在一家机械制造厂选取了 94 名暴露于噪声的工人作为研究对象。测量了工作场所的生产噪声,并对受试者进行了佩戴耳塞的培训。通过使用听力保护装置的密合度测试,测量并记录了培训前后佩戴 3M 1110 泡沫测试耳塞的 PAR 值。比较了实际 PAR 值与标称值以及相关标准中的噪声衰减值之间的差异,并评估了培训前后听力保护装置的保护效果。结果受试者的平均年龄为(36.76±11.48)岁,平均工龄为(16.34±11.64)年,平均接触噪声时间为(15.67±11.64)年。受试者岗位的噪声检测结果介于 80.1 至 94.3 dB (A) 之间。受试者佩戴 3M 1110 发泡测试耳塞进行密合度测试的结果显示,培训后的双耳 PAR 值为(19.3±6.4) dB (A),显著高于培训前的(11.1±7.4) dB (A)(t=13.31,PPConclusion):建议企业使用密合度测试代替标称值估算来评估听力保护装置的降噪效果。应加强听力保护装置选择和使用的专门培训,确保工人正确佩戴,提高听力保护装置的保护效果。

Objective: To understand the occupational stress and mental health status of hospital infection prevention and control practitioner (HIPCPs) in medical institutions, and analyze their main influencing factors. Methods: In November 2021, 550 nosocomial infection managers in Tianjin were randomly selected to conduct a questionnaire survey using the Concise Occupational Stress Questionnaire, Depression Screening Scale (PHQ-9) and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS). 497 valid questionnaires were obtained, and the total recovery efficiency was 90.36%. Single factor analysis and multivariate logistic regression method were used to analyze the main influencing factors of occupational stress and mental health status of psychiatric managers. Results: The detection rate of anxiety and depression among 497 HIPCPs was 22.73% (113/497) and 58.95% (293/497), respectively. Gender and major were the influencing factors of depression (P=0.000, 0.001). Average working hours>52 hours per week and night shift days>1 days per week were the influencing factors of anxiety (P=0.035, 0.014). Average working hours>52 h per week, night shift days >1 d per week and different majors were the influencing factors of occupational stress (P=0.000, 0.025, 0.010). Multivariate logistic regression results showed that the risk of anxiety in those who worked more than 52 hours per week was 1.753 times that of those who worked less than 52 hours per week (P=0.038), and the risk of depression in women was 3.071 times that of men (P=0.006) . Conclusion: Working hours are an important influencing factor for occupational stress and anxiety among HIPCPs. In order to reduce the occurrence of occupational stress and mental health problems, it is necessary to strengthen psychological counseling for HIPCPs and balance work and rest.

Objective: To analyze the correlation between changes in the concentration of glyphosate (GLY) and its metabolites (AMPA) in patients with acute glyphosate poisoning and clinical symptoms, and to provide reference for the study of glyphosate toxicity. Methods: Urine samples from 5 patients with oral glyphosate poisoning admitted to the Emergency Department of Yangzhou Third Class A General Hospital from February to July 2021 were collected. Urine concentrations of GLY and AMPA were measured using derivatization gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and analyzed based on the patient's clinical manifestations and treatment process. Results: The main symptoms of the patient after poisoning were acute gastrointestinal symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, etc. The concentration of GLY in the patient's urine reached its maximum on the first day and gradually decreased over time. On the day of discharge, the final concentration of GLY was 10% lower than the initial concentration. At discharge, the clearance rates of GLY in cases 1, 2, 3, and 4 were 96.97%, 95.91%, 96.87% and 92.87%, respectively. Conclusion: The glyphosate has a shorter maintenance time after entering the human body; There is no correlation between the concentration of glyphosate and its metabolites admitted to the hospital, the dose of poisoning, and clinical symptoms in poisoned patients.

Objective: To explore the risk factors of neck work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) among automobile manufacturing enterprise workers, and construct the risk prediction model. Methods: In May 2022, a cluster convenience sampling method was used to selet all front-line workers from an automobile manufacturing factory in Xiangyang City as the research objects. And a questionnaire survey was conducted using the modified Musculoskeletal Disorders Questionnaire to analyze the occurrence and exposure to risk factors of neck WMSDs. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of workers' neck WMSDs symptoms, and Nomogram column charts was used to construct the risk prediction model. The accuracy of the model was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, the Bootstrap resampling method was used to verify the model, Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test was used to evaluate the model, and the Calibration curve was drawn. Results: A total of 1783 workers were surveyed, and the incidence of neck WMSDs symptoms was 24.8% (442/1783). Univariate logistic regression showed that age, female, smoking, working in uncomfortable postures, repetitive head movement, feeling constantly stressed at work, and completing conflicting tasks in work could increase the risk of neck WMSDs symptoms in automobile manufacturing enterprise workers (OR=1.37, 95%CI: 1.16-1.62; OR=2.85, 95%CI: 1.56-5.20; OR=1.50, 95%CI: 1.18-1.91; OR=1.18, 95%CI: 1.02-1.37; OR=1.34, 95%CI: 1.04-1.72; OR=1.62, 95%CI: 1.21-2.17; OR=1.48, 95%CI: 1.13-1.92; P<0.05). While adequate rest time could reduce the risk of neck WMSDs symptoms (OR=0.56, 95%CI: 0.52-0.86, P<0.05). The risk prediction model of neck WMSDs of workers in automobile manutacturing factory had good prediction efficiency, and the area under the ROC curve was 0.72 (95%CI: 0.70-0.75, P<0.001) . Conclusion: The occurrence of neck WMSDs symptoms of workers in automobile manufacturing factory is relatively high. The risk prediction model constructed in this study can play a certain auxiliary role in predicting neck WMSDs symptoms of workers in automobile manufacturing enterprise workers.

Objective: To explore the bioaccessibility of the main metal components in welding fume welding fume in simulated lung fluid, and to evaluate the exposure level of each metal component in combination with the EPA inhalation exposure risk assessment model. Methods: In November 2022, the microscopic morphology characteristics of welding fumes were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, the bioaccessibility of each metal component in lung fluid simulated normal and lung inflammatory states was analyzed by in vitro simulation method, and the exposure level of each metal component was calculated in combination with the EPA inhalation exposure risk assessment model. Results: The main metal components in carbon dioxide gas shielded welding fumes were Fe, Mn, Zn, Ti, Al, Cu, Cr, Cd, Ni and As, and the bioaccessibility in simulated normal lung interstitial fluid was 0.82%-1.84%, 5.07%-9.41%, 4.52%-7.23%, 5.10%-8.67%, 20.48%-29.60%, 5.27%-9.83%, 4.80%-7.56%, 0.07%-1.08%, 6.48%-13.84% and 33.02%-42.81%. The bioaccessibility of the above metal components in the lung fluid under simulated lung inflammation was 14.79%-27.45%, 34.53%-46.11%, 35.31%-59.13%, 16.45%-22.51%, 60.78%-76.51%, 26.58%-34.12%, 15.32%-25.87%, 2.0%-5.7%, 34.77%-43.33% and 71.34%-88.36%, respectively. Compared with the simulated lurg interstitial fluid, the bioaccessibility of metal components in the lung fluid under the simulated inflammatory state was increased, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The average daily exposure dose Mn in the two simulated lung fluids exceeded the inhalation reference limit (>50 times), and the average daily exposure dose Ti and Cr in the simulated lung inflammation exceeded the reference limit (>1.3 times) . Conclusion: Attention should be paid to the bioaccessibility characteristics of metal components in the exposure level and hazard assessment of welding fumes.
