Objective: To explore the association of Occupational chronic psychological stress with transaminase, heat shock protein70(HSP70)gene family and their protein interaction with metabolic syndrome(MS).
Methods: A case-control study was used. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, from March 2015 to March 2016, 583 unrelated MS patients were selected as the case group and 585 unrelated healthy people as the control group among hospitalized and physical examination subjects aged 20-60 in Wuzhong People's Hospital and General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University.
Low-temperature curable negative-tone photosensitive polyimide (n-LTPI) viscous solutions were prepared by dissolving photo-crosslinkable poly (amic ester) (pc-PAE) resin, photophotocrosslinker, photoinitiator, and the heteroaromatic base as curing catalysts, and other additives in organic solvents. Among them, the pc-PAE resin was synthesized by polycondensation of aromatic diacid chloride and diester of 2-ethoxymathacrylate, aromatic diamines in aprotic solvents. After being spun-coated on a silicon wafer surface, soft-baked, exposed to UV light, and developed, the n-LTPI with 2% of imidazole (IMZ) as a curing catalyst produced high-quality photo-patterns with line via resolution of 5 μm at 5 μm film thickness.

The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) has recommended a considerable reduction in the equivalent dose limit of eye lens from 150 mSv y -1 to 20 mSv y -1 , averaged over a defined period of 5 y. In this paper, the eye lens dose of interventional radiology workers in China during 2017-2019 is analyzed to understand the current status of eye lens occupational exposure and to provide decision-making suggestions for health supervision departments using data obtained from the National Radiological Health Information Platform in China.

This paper presents a retrospective analysis of occupational exposure to ionizing radiation from medical practice in the region of Hohhot, China, from 2004 to 2020. Results show that the average annual effective dose of occupationally exposed workers in medical practice significantly declined from 1.

Methods: Using the case-control research method, according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, from March 2015 to March 2016 from the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University and Wuzhong City People's Hospital, 376 unrelated cases and 408 control groups were selected. We conducted questionnaire surveys(including general conditions, disease and medication history, family history, etc.
Nanozyme based on Prussian blue nanocubes (PB NCs) loaded with copper nanoparticles (Cu@PB NCs) was synthesized. The peroxidase (POD)-like activity of Cu@PB NCs was studied and utilized for detecting the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP). The Cu@PB NCs possess higher POD-like activity compared with PB NCs and natural horseradish peroxidase (HRP) due to the loading of copper nanoparticles.

A total of 504,538 industrial radiation workers were monitored for the period 2009-2018, with a continuous increase in the number of workers from 23,789 in 2009 to 66,017 in 2018. The annual average effective doses were 0.

The registry and analysis of occupational exposure is significant for radiation protection against ionising radiation. This paper presents the current status of the 'Chinese Registry of Radiation Workers (CRRW)' and trends as well as the distribution of occupational exposure to ionising radiation in China from 2009 to 2018. A database with total 6.

Previously, we have reported some protective effects of DSS against NS, but the in-depth mechanisms remain unclear.
Aim Of The Study: In this study, an ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q/TOF-MS)-based urinary metabonomics coupled with bioinformatics method was employed to evaluate the mechanisms of DSS in treating NS from the perspective of metabolism.
Occupational exposure to ionizing radiation from medical practices in China has been collected for a 7 y period between 2010 and 2016 from roughly 220 individual monitoring service providers through the Chinese Registry of Radiation Workers. Statistical dose distributions and characteristic tendencies are presented based on the evaluation in terms of six occupational categories. A reduction can be seen in average annual effective dose for interventional radiology, nuclear medicine, diagnostic radiology, radiotherapy, dental radiology, and others by 52%, 47%, 46%, 34%, 69%, and 31%, respectively, for the 7 y period.
