Objective To evaluate the quality of life (QOL) of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) tumorfree survivors,and analyze the factors affecting the QOL of NPC patients.Methods The QOL and demographic variables (gender,age,education,marital status,income,dialects,concomitant chronic disease,clinical stage,treatment method,radiation course,and radiotherapy stages) were collected.ANOVA and t test were used to compare the QOL of NPC patients among different demographic variables. Multivariate ANOVA was used to select the influencing factors. Results The influencing factors of psychological QOL included radiotherapy stage, radiation course and concomitant chronic disease. NPC patients had higher psychological domain QOL whose survival greater than five years, had a completed course of radiation, and without other diseases (P ＜0.05).The influencing factors of social QOL included radiotherapy stage and treatment method (P＜ 0.05). The influencing factors of side-effect QOL included radiotherapy stage(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The NPC tumor-free survivors who survival longer, have more course of radiation and with chronic diseases should be pay more attention.Prevention interventions should be preformed to reduce radiation injury to patients; side effects,and improve QOL of NPC tumor-free patients.

Objective To analyze the changes and characteristics of cancer incidence and mortality among Jiaxing residents in the past 6 years,and to provide evidence for the prevention and control of cancer incidence and mortality.Methods Registered malignant tumor data from the Zhejiang Chronic Disease Information Monitoring and Management System were collected and analyzed based on the International Statistical Classification of Diseases (ICD-10).The statistical indexes used for analyses included crude incidence,standardized incidence,crude ortality,standardized mortality,potential years of life lost (PYLL),average years of life lost (AYLL),rate of potential years of life (PYLL‰) and so on.Results From 2010 to 2015,the crude incidence,the standardized incidence,the crude mortality,and the standardized mortality were 342.52/105,240.89/105,194.71/105 and 126.27/105,respectively.The crude incidence and mortality for males were both higher than those for females(378.44/105 vs.307.49/105,x2=763.06,P＜0.01;255.31/105vs.135.62/105,x2-3 814.11,P＜0.01).The PYLL,AYLL and PYLL‰ of residents in Jiaxing were 248,307 years,6.16 years and 12.00‰,respectively.The PYLL‰for males was significantly higher than that for females(x2=37073.85,P＜0.01).The AYLL for females was 6.50 years,higher than that for males(5.98 years)(t =125.15,P＜0.01).The incidence of malignant tumors increased with age,especially in the older than 40 age group,with the older than 80 age group showing the highest rate at 1 779.01/105 (x2 =38 840 907,P ＜ 0.01).Rates for Lung cancer (70.59/105),colorectal cancer (39.86/105),liver cancer (29.14/105),breast cancer(26.73/105) and stomach cancer (26.00/105) were the most common malignant tumors in Jiaxing.Conclusions The morbidity and mortality of malignant tumors are showing signs of rising and the incidences of lung cancer and gastrointestinal cancer are particularly pronounced in Jiaxing.In consequence,measures for the prevention and control of malignant tumors should be developed with clearly defined objectives and research on the pathogenesis of malignant tumors should be stepped upto reduce the incidence and mortality of malignant tumors.

Objective : To understand the epidemiological characteristics of intentional injury cases in Jiaxing from 2009 to 2016,and to provide basis for prevention and control of intentional injury. Methods: Data from the injury surveillance hospitals in Jiaxing from 2009 to 2016 were collected to learn the distribution and trend of gender,age,injury intention,cause,occurrence place,injured body parts and severity in intentional injury cases. Results: There were 8 089 cases of intentional injury reported by injury surveillance hospitals in Jiaxing from 2009 to 2016,accounting for 3.40% of all injury cases reported（237 912）. A total of 7 489 cases aged between 15 to 64 years old,accounting for 92.58%. There were 6 906 cases of violence and 1 183 cases of suicide or self-inflicted injury,accounting for 85.38% and 14.62%,respectively. The male-female ratio in the cases of violence was 2.54∶1,while the one in the cases of suicide or self-inflicted injury was 1∶1.59. The cases of violence was mainly caused by blunt instruments,accounting for 75.17%（5 191 cases）,while the cases of suicide or self-inflicted injury was mainly caused by poisoning,accounting for 47.76%（565 cases）. The cases of violence mainly occurred in streets,accounting for 29.64%（2 047 cases）,while the cases of suicide or self-inflicted injury mainly occurred at home,accounting for 82.59%（977 cases）. Head was the main injured parts in the cases of violence,accounting for 66.81%（4 614 cases）,while digestive system was the main injured parts in the cases of suicide or self-inflicted injury,accounting for 31.45%（372 cases）. About 0.12% of cases of the violence and 1.44% of cases of suicide or self-inflicted injury caused to death. Conclusion Intentional injury cases in Jiaxing were mainly young or middle aged people. Violence was a common intention of injury in males and suicide or self-inflicted injury was a common intention of injury in females.

Objective: To analyze the trend and distribution characteristics of the elderly fall cases in Jiaxing from 2009 to 2018,and to provide evidence for injury prevention and control. Methods: The injury monitoring data of Jiaxing sentinel hospitals from 2009 to 2018 was collected and analyzed the demographic features,places,results,involved body parts and severity of the fall cases aged 60 years or over. Results: There were 22 494 fall cases aged 60 years or over,accounting for 7.51% of all injury cases,28.79% of all fall cases,and 41.25% of the elderly injury cases.

Abstract On March 12, 2022, a case with Plasmodium vivax malaria was reported in the First Hospital of Jiaxing City. The case sought healthcare services due to persist, sharp distending pain of the brain and fever on February 25, 2022, and the symptoms showed no improvements following symptomatic treatment. Microscopy identified malaria parasites on March 12, and the case was definitively diagnosed as P. vivax malaria on March 13. The case was discharged from hospital on March 16 and relapsed on June 15. The case was a veteran from the China-Myanmar border, where malaria is highly prevalent, and had no history of travel after returning to Jiaxing City on October 2021. Based on epidemiological history and laboratory tests, the case was diagnosed as a cross-border mosquito-borne imported case of P. vivax malaria. The case was given treatment with mosquito vector isolation, and the case's family members, neighbors and colleagues were all tested negative for malaria parasites. There was no Anopheles sinensis detected in the case' residence; however, Anopheles was detected in the neighboring areas, indicating a risk of re-establishment. Returners from high-risk regions including borders and labor exporters are recommended to be included in malaria surveillance, and the sensitivity of malaria surveillance requires to be maintained and the diagnostic and treatment capability of malaria requires to be improved in medical institutions.

Objective To explore the effect of doctor-patient interaction based on information platform on hypertensive patients' self-efficacy and treatment compliance in community. Methods A convenience sampling method was used, and 280 patients with hypertension in Huaxin community health service centre were included. Patients were divided into interactive group (89 cases) and control group (191 cases) according to their wishes. Control group received a regular follow-up at community clinics, while interactive group participated in the doctor-patient interaction based on information platform at the same time of regular community clinic visit for 3 months. All patients were investigated using Self-efficacy Assessment Scale for Hypertensives and Treatment Compliance Questionnaire before and after intervention, which was used for effectiveness analysis. Results Before intervention, two groups showed no significant difference in self-efficacy (t=1.635,P>0.05), but there was significant difference in treatment compliance [interactive group:8.00(5.00) vs. control group:10.00(3.00)] (Z=4.409,P<0.05). After the intervention, two groups showed no significant difference in treatment compliance (Z=0.784,P>0.05), but there was significant difference in self-efficacy (interactive group:34.42 ± 4.49 vs. control group:32.63 ± 5.53) (t=2.867, P<0.01), which in interactive group was higher. Before and after the intervention, self-efficacy and the treatment compliance had significantly increased in interactive group (P<0.05). while not significantlyincreased in control group (P>0.05). Before intervention, there was a significant positive correlation between the total score of self-efficacy and treatment compliance(r=0.500, P<0.001), drug therapy compliance (r=0.327, P<0.001) and Non-drug treatment compliance (r=0.469, P<0.001) in two groups, while there was lower positive correlation after intervention. Conclusion The doctor-patient interaction project of community hypertension supervision based on informatization platform is effective on the improvement of self-efficacy and the treatment compliance through the enhanced doctor-patient communication, particularly in promoting the role of self-efficacy to accelerate the improvement of health behaviors, compliance behavior and treatment compliance.

Objective To analyze the clinicopathologic characteristics,treatment and prognosis of retinoblasto-ma without calcification.Methods The clinic and pathologic data of 20 cases of retinoblastoma without calcification were analyzed retrospectively.All the cases were selected from 710 cases of retinoblastoma archived in Beijing Tongren Hospital,Capital Medical University from April 2010 to April 2015.The inclusion criteria was no calcification on CT scan before treatment.The patients after enuclea-tion were diagnosed according to pathology;the patients without enu-cleation were diagnosed according to clinical manifestations,Retcam fundus,ophthalmic ultrasound and the reduction of tumor after chemotherapy.The clinical features,treatment and prognosis were summarized through statistical analysis of the 20 cases.The patients were followed -up through clinical reexamination and telephone calls.Results In this study,there were 14(70.0%)male and 6(30.0%)female patient′s;there were 19 cases(95.0%)less than 5 -year -old,14 cases (70.0%)less than 3 -year -old,1 case (5.0%)less than 1 -year -old.Eighteen cases (90.0%)were unilateral disease,and 2 cases (10.0%)were bilateral disease.According to international Intraocular Retinoblastoma Classification stage:4 cases (18.2%)in stage E ,17 cases (77.3%)in stage D ,1 case (4.5%)in stage C.Five cases (25.0%)were enucleated eyes,and pathology report was retinoblastoma.Nine cases (45.0%) were treated with pre -enucleation chemotherapy,and finally enucleated after poor tumor shrinkage or recurrence,and the pathology was retinoblastoma.Five cases (25.0%)without enucleation were stable.One case (5.0%)failed to follow -up owing to the patients irregular treatment.In 14 enucleation cases,histopathologic high risk factors could be found in 3 cases (21 .4%),and couldn′t be found in the other 11 cases (78.6%).In the cases that were not enuclea-ted,the tumor diminished in size or new calcification presented in the fundus examination,and in 12 cases,new calcifi-cation was pre-sented on follow -up CT scan.Follow -up failed in 1 case(5.0%),but follow -up was available for 19 cases,and among them 13 cases (68.4%)were disease -free survival and 6 cases (31 .6%)were alive with tumor. Conclusions Close attention should be paid to the untypical retinoblastoma with no calcification on CT scan through well -taken medical history and meticulous imaging examination,in order to give early diagnosis and therapy.

Objective To assess the psychological characteristics of EORTC QLQ-H&N35 scale,and to explore whether QLQ-H&N35 scale is suitable to measure the qulity of life (QOL) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients.Methods The data of 391 NPC patients from Cancer Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University was collected.Split-half reliability,Cronbach's α coefficient,content validity,construct validity,discriminant validity,and feasibility of QLQ-H&N35 were performed.Person separation index (PSI),the order of item threshold,and differential item functioning were analyzed.Results Cronbach'sα coefficient and split-half reliability of QLQ-H&N35 were higher than 0.7,except for sense parameter.All Test-retest coefficients of QLQ-H&N35 were higher than 0.7.The result of factor analysis showed that the data was consistent with the theoretical model.Most of the domain scores and dimension scores of patients with different radiotherapy stages were significantly different (P ＜ 0.05).PSI of the model was 0.90.Most of the order of item threshold were normal.All the items had no uniform or non-uniform DIF among different genders and age groups.Conclusion QLQ-H&N35 scale is a reliable,operable,and valid disease-specific scale for the evaluation QOL in NPC patients.

Objective: To perform an epidemiological survey of the first case with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in Pinghu City of Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province on March 13, 2022, so as to provide insights into the management of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) epidemics. Methods: According to the requirements of the Protocol on Prevention and Control of COVID-19 (8th Edition), epidemiological investigations were performed among 39 cases with SARS-CoV-2 infections in Pinghu City from March 13 to 20, 2022. Cases' demographics, clinical symptoms, history of immunization and exposure were collected, and close contacts were identified. Pharyngeal swabs were sampled from infected cases for detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid and whole-genome sequencing, and the source of infection and transmission route were investigated. Results: The index case for this COVID-19 epidemic was an imported case from Shanghai Municipality, who infected 6 persons via aerosol transmission when playing in the badminton venue of Pinghu National Fitness Center on March 9; subsequently, one of these infected cases infected another 18 persons when playing in the badminton venue of Jiadian Village Resident's Fitness Center in Zhapu Township on March 12. Sixteen confirmed cases were reported, and all cases were mild; another 23 asymptomatic cases were diagnosed, with no death reported. This epidemic occurred from March 11 to 20, with 3 generations of spread and a median incubation period of 3 days. The SARS-CoV-2 infected cases had a median age of 33.5 (interquartile range, 12.0) years and included 36 cases with a history of COVID-19 vaccination. There were 16 cases with fever, cough, runny nose and sore throat, and 13 cases with imaging features of pneumonia. The effective reproductive number (Rt) of the COVID-19 epidemic was 7.73 at early stage, and was less than 1 since March 21. Whole-genome sequencing identified Omicron BA.2 variant among 33 cases, which had high homology with the index cases. Conclusion This epidemic was a cluster of COVID-19 caused by imported Omicron BA.2 variant infection from Shanghai Municipality, and the COVID-19 transmission was mainly caused by indoor aerosols.
