Follow-up study on newly diagnosed occupational pneumoconiosis patients in Guizhou Province, 2006-2021 / 中国职业医学

Objective To analyze the survival status, distribution characteristics and social security of newly diagnosed occupational pneumoconiosis patients in Guizhou Province from 2006 to 2021. Methods The newly diagnosed pneumoconiosis cases reported in Guizhou Province from 2006 to 2021 were collected from the “Occupational Diseases and Hazards Monitoring Information System” under “National Health Insurance Disease Prevention and Control Information System”. Telephone or face-to-face surveys were conducted to investigate these patients. Results A total of 12 413 newly diagnosed pneumoconiosis patients were reported in Guizhou Province from 2006 to 2021, with 11 192 cases included in the follow-up, and 10 631 cases were followed-up successfully. According to the follow-up study, 10 565 cases (accounting for 99.4%) were survived, and 66 cases (accounting for 0.6%) died. The number of pneumoconiosis showed an increasing trend followed by a sharp decline from 2006 to 2021, reaching its peak in 2016. The main industry of the newly pneumoconiosis cases was concentrated in the mining industry (accounting for 90.6%). The top three regions with surviving cases in the follow-up were Bijie City, Zunyi City, and Qiannan Prefecture, accounting for 34.0%, 25.4% and 12.0%, respectively. The main types of pneumoconiosis were coal workers' pneumoconiosis and silicosis, accounting for 67.1% and 30.8%, respectively. Most cases were in the age group of 50 to <60 years old, accounting for 59.1%, and the majority of the workers had worked in dusty environments for 5 to <25 years, accounting for 91.5%. In terms of social security, about 89.5% of cases were in the basic medical insurance for urban and rural residents which was the most popular social security. The employer's compensation rate was 67.7%, and the work-related injury insurance participation rate was 51.5%. Conclusion Pneumoconiosis cases in Guizhou Province exhibit significant regional disparities. It has a high concentration in the industry, a younger age profile, and limited social security coverage. It is necessary to strengthen the special management of dust and industry supervision in mining industry, intensify follow-up work for pneumoconiosis cases, reinforce the construction of pneumoconiosis rehabilitation station in key regions, and improve the quality of life of pneumoconiosis cases.

Laparoscopic resection combined with colonoscopy in treatment of colon carcinoid tumors: a report of 12 cases / 中华全科医师杂志

Twelve cases of colon carcinoid were treated by laparoscopic resection combined with colonoscopy from January 2003 to November 2009 in the First Huai'an Hospital. The tumors presented as submucosal lesions in colonoscopy with the size of 1.5 - 3.0 cm in diameter, which were difficult to be found by laparoscopy. All tumors were locally resected under laparoscopy with the assistance of colonoscopy successfully. Patients were followed up for 6 - 72 months, one case died 30 months after operation due to liver metastases. Colon carcinoid tumors with diameter from 1.5 - 3.0 cm often have muscular invasion and lymph node metastasis. The results indicate that laparoscopic resection combined with colonoscopy is a safe and effective procedure for colon carcinoid tumor.
