ABSTRACT
Background Gene sequencing industry is an emerging innovation-driven industry. Employees have high requirements for independent learning and innovation ability and face great professional pressure. Objective To understand the occupational stress, depression, and sleep of gene sequencing enterprise employees and to analyze the effect of occupational stress on depression and sleep. Methods From November to December 2021, occupational stress, depression, and sleep conditions of 469 workers from 34 enterprises in gene sequencing industry were surveyed by Core Occupational Stress Scale (COSS), Patient Health Questionnaire 9 (PHQ-9), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). A total of 427 valid questionnaires were recovered with a questionnaire valid response rate of 91.04%. The relationship of occupational stress with depression or sleep was analyzed by logistic regression. Results The rates of occupational stress, depression, and sleep disorder were 27.40%, 33.50%, and 28.10%, respectively. Significant difference were found in the rates of depression and sleep disorder in different occupational stress groups (P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that, for every 1 increase in social support score, the risk of depression increased by 1.206 (95%CI: 1.117−1.304), and the risk of sleep disorder increased by 1.143 (95%CI: 1.059−1.233). For every 1 increase in organization and reward score, the risk of developing depression increased by 1.082 (95%CI: 1.017−1.151). Mild, moderate, and severe occupational stress were all associated with a higher risk of depression in reference to no occupational stress (OR=2.535, 95%CI: 1.465−4.386; OR=3.774, 95%CI: 1.809−7.870; OR=3.823, 95%CI: 1.486−9.837). Severe occupational stress was associated with a higher risk of sleep disorder in reference to no occupational stress (OR=3.141, 95%CI: 1.233−8.006). Conclusion Occupational stress among employees in the gene sequencing industry can increase the risks of depression and sleep disorder. Enterprises need to take intervention measures and pay attention to prevention and treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective To simplify and optimize the micronucleus test method. Methods The preparation process of micronucleus test was simplified and optimized. In the improved method, the superfine solution was directly absorbed and discarded after cell culture, and then potassium chloride solution was added for hypotonic treatment. Then pre-fixation, centrifugation. Once the centrifugation was completed, the cells which fixed only once were directly dropped to the slide. Results The background of the slides was clear and the cells were slightly darker, but the observation of cells and micronucleus was not affected. There were a lot of binuclear cells, which can meet the counting requirements. With oil and high magnification, the image wais clearer and the background was cleaner. The cytoplasmic integrity rate, cell stain rate and the average number of cells per high magnification field of cells by the improvement method were significantly increased compared with that by the traditional methods, the probability P values were 0.0051 (χ2=7.8375), 0.0140 (χ2=6.0437) and 0.0025 (t=3.0951), respectively. The rate of micronucleus cells and cells group index had no statistical significance compared with the traditional method, the probability P values were 0.7749 (χ2=0.0817) and 0.5152 (U =0.0000), respectively. Conclusion The new method is more simple, easier to control the test quality, more reliable test results, and save time, manpower and material resources.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To detect the prevalence of sleep disorders among metro staff and to analyze influencing effects of effort reward imbalance (ERI) on it.@*Methods@#In January 2015, subway driver, dispatcher and station operator from Guangzhou subway were selected as the research object in the whole group sampling method. A total of 1200 questionnaires were distributed and 1124 were valid questionnaires, and the effective questionnaire recovery rate was 93.7%. Based on the effort reward imbalance questionnaire and the self-administered sleep questionnaire, the data of the general demographic characteristics, life satisfaction, occupational stress and sleep status of the respondents were collected. Epi.data3.1 and spss19.0 were used for analyzing.@*Results@#A total of 1124 subway employees were surveyed, with an average age of (28±5) years; the working age was (4.5±3.6) years. ERI occupied 24.7% (278/1124) of the study population and sleep disorders as 42.2% (474/1124) . Single factor analysis showed that marital status, educational level, work position, life satisfaction and ERI could significantly influence sleep disorders of metro staff (P<0.05) . Logistic regression showed that higher effort (adjusted OR=2.56, 95%CI: 1.79-3.68) , lower reward (adjusted OR=1.90, 95%CI: 1.34-2.68) and ERI (adjusted OR=2.33, 95%CI: 1.69-3.22) could increase the risk of sleep disorders after the confounding factors were controlled. ERI (adjusted OR=2.89, 95% CI: 1.80-4.64) , and over commitment (adjusted OR=4.64, 95%CI: 2.81-7.68) could influence the risk of sleep disorders independently when over commitment was evaluated as a moderating variable.@*Conclusion@#Occupational stress as ERI could influence the risk of sleep disorders among metro staff. The situation should not be neglected for occupational health of metro staff.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the accuracy of the new trauma scoring method:Glasgow coma score (GCS),age and systolic pressure score (GAP),in diagnosing patients' traumatic condition and predicting fatality rate in department of emergency.Methods The chnical data of 27 706 traumatic patients in department of emergency were collected.The observation was categorized into three kinds:death within 24 h after reaching department of emergency (24 h death);death from 24 h after reaching department of emergency to 7 d (death after 24 h);survival.On the basis of the trauma mechanism,GCS,age and systolic pressure score (MGAP),the GAP method was used for judging traumatic condition and predicting fatality rate of traumatic patients in department of emergency.The accuracy of GAP in predicting fatality rate was compared with revised trauma score (RTS),trauma and injury severity score (TRISS) and MGAP.The C-statistics method was used to calculate the accuracy in predicted the fatality rate.Results The C values (0.936 and 0.961) of GAP in predicting fatality rate after 24 h and in 24 h were higher than RTS (0.917 and 0.958) and MGAP (0.920 and 0.950),but slightly lower than TRISS (0.950 and 0.970).The traumatic condition in GAP was defined in this way:severity 3-10 scores,moderation 11-18 scores,and slightness 19-24 scores.Conclusions The GAP is simple,practical and accurate in diagnosing patients' traumatic condition and predicting their fatality rate.It is helpful in physicians' decision of a proper treatment plan.
