What Is Already Known About This Topic?: Lower extremity musculoskeletal diseases (LE-MSDs) have emerged as a significant contributor to the global disease economic burden and worker absenteeism, becoming a global public health concern. However, the epidemic characteristics of LE-MSDs among occupational populations in China are unknown.

What Is Added By This Report?: This report finds that the LE-MSDs prevalence rate among key occupational groups in China is 17.7%, with the top 5 being toy manufacturing, medical personnel, automobile manufacturing, nonferrous metal smelting and rolling processing, and coal mining and washing.

What Are The Implications For Public Health Practice?: This study investigated the occurrence of LE-MSDs in key industries in China and its possible risk factors to provide big data support for preventing and controlling such diseases in these industries.

Rationale: Established coronary artery disease (CAD) patients are at increased risk for recurrence of cardiovascular events and mortality due to non-attainment of recommended risk factor control targets.

Objective: We aimed to evaluate the attainment of treatment targets for risk factor control among CAD patients as recommended in the Indonesian CVD prevention guidelines.

Methods: Patients were consecutively recruited from the Makassar Cardiac Center at Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Indonesia.

Background: Ultra-low rectal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) presents technical challenges due to anatomical features. The objective of this research was to determine the risk factors linked to unsuccessful curative resections and to create a nomogram predictive model to assess the likelihood of encountering technical challenges.

Methods: Patients with ultra-low rectal tumors received ESD form June 2017 to December 2022 were retrospectively enrolled.

We investigated if selected polymorphisms in DNA repair genes modify the association between exposure to particulate matter ≤ 10 micron in diameter (PM) and breast cancer (BCa) risk. We included 150,929 postmenopausal women (5,969 with BCa) from UK Biobank, a population-based prospective cohort. Cancer diagnoses were ascertained through the linkage to the UK National Health Service Central Registers.

The involvement of axillary lymph nodes (ALNs) is a critical prognostic factor affecting patient management and outcomes in breast cancer (BC). This study aims to comprehensively analyze the clinical data of BC patients, evaluate ultrasonic signs of ALNs, and explore the implications of a prediction model for ALN metastasis (ALNM) in early-stage BC patients based on ultrasonic features and clinical data. This study retrospectively analyzed ultrasonic features and clinical data from 216 patients diagnosed with unilateral invasive BC.
