ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the occurrence characteristics of heat-related diseases in the 19th Hangzhou Asian Games beach volleyball events, strengthen the ability of prevention and early identification of heat-related diseases, and provide reference for the holding of large-scale outdoor events in summer and reasonable allocation of medical resources.Methods:The medical insurance of heat-related diseases of relevant personnel in the beach volleyball competition from September 19 to September 28, 2023 was retrospectively analyzed, and the incidence of heat-related diseases in the personnel involved in Asia was analyzed.Results:During the beach volleyball competition in Ningbo Region of the Hangzhou Asian Games, a total of 103 people were provided with health services in the medical service field (61 people had mild discomfort due to excessive outdoor temperature; Other cold, minor injury, bandage 42 people); Medical services provided 44 times (4 referrals). Among them, 11 cases were sports injury and trauma (29.5%), 11 cases were heat stroke and other related symptoms (25%), 6 cases were sunburn (13.6%), 10 cases were oral diseases of five senses (22.8%), 4 cases were upper respiratory tract infection (9.1%).Conclusions:The holding of large-scale outdoor events in summer should focus on heat-related diseases, and it is necessary to effectively do the corresponding planning work in advance in terms of reasonable allocation of medical resources and targeted training of professionals.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: In the present study, we tried to understand the crosstalk between prostaglandins-COX-mediated rectal tumors and toll- like receptors in rats. METHODS: The tumor was induced using nicotine (100 µL/mL). Following the induction, the serum and rectal tissue were analyzed for Lipo-polysaccharides (LPS) and prostaglandin E2 in serum, and tissue expression of inflammatory mediators like TLR2,4, NFkB; cancer markers like Matrix metalloproteases 2 (MMP2), 9 and Cyclo-oxygenases 2 (COX-2) were estimated. The gut microflora analysis was carried out using the fresh fecal samples of both the study groups. RESULTS: In nicotine-induced group, there was a significant alteration in the gut microflora toward high Gram-negative strains and a decline in Gram-positive populations. All the inflammatory as well as cancer prognostic markers were significantly increased in the tumor-induced animals. CONCLUSION: From the present study, it could be concluded that nicotine significantly induced rectal cancer in the mice model by modu- lating gut microflora and increasing COX-2 and prostaglandin E2 levels.
