温室作业对蔬菜种植人员职业性肌肉骨骼疾患的影响

目的 探讨温室作业对蔬菜种植人员职业性肌肉骨骼疾患（WMSDs）的影响。方法 采用流行病学横断面调查方法，选取西北某地区602人作为研究对象，其中温室作业人员（温室组）307人、非温室作业人员（非温室组）295人。通过问卷调查和体格检查，收集研究对象个人基本信息和各部位WMSDs检出信息。采用卡方检验进行组间WMSDs检出率的比较、Logistic回归模型进行多因素分析。结果 温室组WMSDs检出率为84.04%，高于非温室组（60.68%）（χ2=41.265，P＜0.001）。温室组颈部、肩部、下背部、手部和腿部5个部位WMSDs检出率分别为36.2%、29.0%、62.2%、20.2%和51.1%，均显著高于非温室组（24.7%、18.6%、41.4%、12.2%和26.4%）（P＜0.05）。温室组2个部位、3个部位和≥4个部位WMSDs检出率分别为25.1%、16.9%和19.2%，亦显著高于非温室组（18.3%、9.2%和10.2%），但两组间单一部位WMSDs检出率差异无统计学意义。校正性别、年龄等因素后，从事温室作业能增加作业人员WMSDs的风险（OR=3.558，95%CI 2.338～5.414），女性患病风险（OR=4.682，95%CI 2.600～8.433）高于男性（OR=2.667，95%CI 1.421～5.007）。结论 温室作业可增加蔬菜种植人员WMSDs的患病风险，多部位WMSDs尤其值得关注。     

Buscando o motivo da instabilidade hemodinâmica: relato de caso sobre o papel do ultrassom intraoperatório

Background and objectives

A prompt and effective management of trauma patient is necessary. The aim of this case report is to highlight the importance of intraoperative echocardiography as a useful tool in patients suffering from refractory hemodynamic instability no otherwise explained.

Direct insertion of an ultra‐slim upper endoscope for cholangioscopy in patients undergoing choledochoduodenostomy

Direct peroral cholangioscopy (POC) using an ultra‐slim upper endoscope is one modality of POC for intraductal endoscopic evaluation and treatment of the bile duct. Choledochoduodenostomy (CDS) is one modality of biliary bypass surgery that provides a new route to the bile duct. We carried out direct POC using an ultra‐slim upper endoscope without the use of accessories in 10 patients (four sump syndromes, three bile duct strictures and three intrahepatic duct stones) previously undergoing surgical CDS. Direct POC was successful in all patients. The use of an intraductal balloon catheter was required in one patient for advancement of the endoscope into the bile duct. Distal bile ducts with sump syndromes were cleared using baskets and water irrigation under direct POC. Cholangiocarcinoma was diagnosed in one patient with hilar bile duct stricture after cholangioscopic evaluation and a targeting forceps biopsy under direct POC. Intrahepatic duct stones were successfully extracted after intraductal fragmentation under direct POC. Oozing bleeding occurred during intraductal lithotripsy but stopped spontaneously. Direct POC using an ultra‐slim upper endoscope without the assistance of accessories can easily be carried out in patients undergoing CDS.     

Topical acne treatments in Europe and the issue of antimicrobial resistance

Acne vulgaris (acne) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the sebaceous gland, characterized by follicular hyperkeratinization, excessive colonization by Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes) as well as immune reactions and inflammation. Despite an armamentarium of topical treatments available including benzoyl peroxide, retinoids and azelaic acid, topical antibiotics in monotherapies, especially erythromycin and clindamycin, are still used in Europe to treat acne. This intensive use led to antimicrobial‐resistant P. acnes and staphylococci strains becoming one of the main health issues worldwide. This is an update on the current topical acne treatments available in Europe, their mechanism of action, their potential to induce antimicrobial resistance and their clinical efficacy and safety.
