Objective:To investigate the characteristics of the sleep quality and health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and analyze the different effects of sleep quality on HRQoL among young and middle-aged people.Methods:A cross-sectional study recruited 1 976 participants.All participants completed a self-designed questionnaire for the adults' general condition, the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and Short-Form health survey (SF-36). All participants were divided into 3 age groups: 18-29-year-old group( n=1 148), 30-44-year-old group( n=586) and 45-59-year-old group ( n=242). SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Chi-square test was used to analyze the general characteristics of the three age groups.Non-parametric test was used to analyze the scores of the three age groups in different dimensions of sleep quality. One-way ANOVA was used to analyze the mean scores of the three age groups in different dimensions of HRQoL. Stepwise regression analysis was used to analyze the effect of sleep quality on HRQoL among the three groups after control the confounding factors such as marital status, education, smoking, drinking and exercise habits and past medical history. Results:In terms of sleep quality, the total PSQI scores of 18-29-year-old, 30-44-year-old and 45-59-year-old groups(4(2, 6), 4(2, 6), 4(2, 6)) showed statistically significant differences ( Z=10.951, P=0.004). In terms of HRQoL, there were statistically significant differences in physical component summary scores (18-29-year-old: 82.51±12.62, 30-44-year-old: 80.72±13.63, 45-59-year-old: 82.04±13.07, F=3.667, P=0.026) and mental component summary scores(18-29-year-old: 76.09±15.46, 30-44-year-old: 77.20±16.14, 45-59-year-old: 81.82±14.14, F=13.649, P<0.001) among young and middle-aged people in different age groups.Regression analysis found that daytime dysfunction was an independent influencing factor for HRQoL in young and middle-aged population ( β=-0.308--0.425, all P<0.01). Sleep disorders significantly decreased Physical Component Summary of HRQoL in young-aged people ( β=-0.127--0.215, all P<0.01). The use of hypnotic drugs significantly reduced the scores in the physiological field in the young adults aged 30-44 ( β=-0.076, P<0.05). The duration of sleep significantly decreased the scores in the mental domain of young adults aged 30-44 ( β=-0.112, P<0.01). Subjective sleep quality was an independent factor that significantly decreased HRQoL in young adults aged 18-29 and 30-44 years ( β=-0.089--0.169, all P<0.01). Conclusion:Sleep quality and HRQoL of young and middle-aged people in different age groups show different characteristics.The effect of sleep quality on HRQoL is different among people in different ages.Taking targeted interventions for people of different ages to improve the sleep quality may be an effective way to improve their HRQoL.

Aim To investigate the role of captopril in insulin resistance of endothelial cells induced by high glucose.Methods 1 .Improvement effect of captopril on insulin resistance in HUVECs was observed.The HUVECs were seeded in a 6-well plate and were ran-domly divided into 5 groups,namely,control group, IR group,IR together with different Cap concentrations (low,medium and high concentration),respectively. 2.Improvement effect of Cap on insulin resistance was mediated by PPARγin HUVECs.HUVECs were ran-domly divided into 6 groups,namely,control group, control +PPARγinhibitor (PI)(1 .0 μmol · L -1 ) group,IR group,IR +PI(1 .0 μmol·L -1 )group,IR +Cap(1 ×1 0 -5 mol·L -1 ) group,and IR +Cap +PI (1 .0 μmol·L -1 )group.All indicators were detected. Results After HUVECs were incubated with media containing 33 mmol·L -1 of glucose for 48 h,the NO levels were significantly decreased while ET-1 levels were significantly elevated,showing a significant differ-ence between IR group and control group (P <0.01 ). The expression levels of PPARγmRNA and its protein were somewhat up-regulated,but there was no signifi-cant difference between IR group and control group (P>0.05).When the HUVECs in IR group were treated with DMEM containing glucose (33 mmol·L -1 )for 48 h and insulin for 30 min,the expression levels of PPARγmRNA and its protein in Cap groups were simi-lar to those in the IR group,and there was no signifi-cant difference between the two groups (P >0.05 );however, the expression levels of phosphorylated PPARγprotein in Cap groups were increased compared with IR group (P <0.05).The levels of NO were sig-nificantly increased whereas the levels of ET-1 were decreased in Cap groups,which had significant differ-ences compared with IR group (P <0.05).Nonethe-less,pre-treating with GW9662,a PPARγinhibitor, the improvement effects of Cap were markedly abol-ished.Conclusions Captopril could improve high glucose-induced insulin resistance of endothelial cells mediated by PPARγ,and the underlying mechanisms are related to the activation of PPARγ,rather than its expression.

Objective:
This study conducted a tobacco control intervention practice on vocational school students based on social cognitive theory, for exploring the practical and feasible tobacco control strategies among students, so as to reduce adolescents’ smoking behaviors.
Methods:
Cluster random sampling method was used to select students in four vocational schools in Shanghai, which were randomly divided into the intervention group (2 schools 1 003 students) and the control group (2 schools 1 096 students). The intervention was conducted on the intervention group based on the social cognitive theory and lasted for 6 months. The control group was blank. Descriptive and analytical statistical methods were used to evaluate the effect of intervention.
Results:
After the intervention, in the intervention group, the current smoking rate (2.77%) and the smoking intention in the next 1 year (8.50%) both decreased, the scores of the cognition of the harm of smoking as well as second hand smoking and the attitudes towards tobacco all increased(39.04%, 32.93%), the self-efficacy of refusing smoking increased (88.93%), the social pressure decreased(12.40%), the exposure rate of secondhand smoke in family decreased(35.45%), and the exposure to tobacco control message on media increased (36.68%). The difference was statistical significant compared to the control group (χ2=8.67,19.32,17.87,8.32,13.51,14.71,17.36,20.09,P<0.01).
Conclusion
The tobacco control model based on social cognitive theory could effectively improve adolescents’ self-efficacy, increase their tobacco-related knowledge, and significantly reduce their future smoking intention and behavior.

Chinese Journal of Preventive Medicine 2019;53(1):10-12
The etiology of cervical cancer has been fully demonstrated. Different screening strategies are available for different areas with various level of development. The prophylactic human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine has launched the era of comprehensive cervical cancer control, which is the milestone in the history of human fighting against cancer. However, cervical cancer is still a major public health issue in the world, especially in developing countries. The main challenge lies in the improvement for the coverage of cervical cancer screening and HPV vaccination. Especially for China with large population, various level of the economic development, and the HPV vaccine later than the world for ten years, how to improve the coverage of cervical cancer screening and HPV vaccination? There is a long way to go for the elimination of cervical cancer.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the value of high risk (HR)-HPV viral load in predicting cervical lesions and triaging for HR-HPV positive women.
METHODSThe study cohort came from a multicenter cervical cancer screening program. HR-HPV was detected by hybrid capture 2 (HC-2) assay, and viral load was measured by the ratio of relative light units to cut off (RLU/CO). Women were divided into 4 groups according to the RLU/CO value, and CIN diagnostic system was used to describe the severity of cervical lesions. Chi-square trend test was used to analyze the association between viral load and CIN. The absolute and relative risks of CIN2+ in different viral load groups were calculated, and the clinical performance to detect CIN2+ at follow-up by different cut-off values of baseline RLU/CO was also calculated.
RESULTS2 725 women with complete results of both baseline and follow-up were included in this analysis. The severity of cervical lesions increased with the increasing viral load (P < 0.001). In women with normal or CIN1 diagnosis at baseline, the absolute risk of one-year accumulative CIN2+ was 0.11% in the HR-HPV-negative group, compared with 3.14% in the moderate viral load group and 6.09% in the high viral load group, and the relative risk of 29.05 (95%CI: 6.07-138.99) in the moderate viral load group and 56.34 (95%CI: 12.89-246.30) in the high viral load group. Raising cut-off value of baseline HR-HPV viral load to 15.00, RLU/CO decreased the number of women who need to be followed up at one-year from 774 to 412, with the sensitivity of 91.30% and specificity of 47.94% in detecting CIN2+ at follow-up.
CONCLUSIONSThe risk of cervical cancer and precancerous lesions increases with the increasing HR-HPV viral load. Raising the cut-off value of HR-HPV viral load can triage for HR-HPV-positive women, therefore help to allocate the health resources more effectively.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the prognosis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 (CIN1) at different follow-up time points in Chinese women and the relationship with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection.
METHODSBiopsy-confirmed CIN1 women were followed up from cervical cancer screening cohorts established during 1999 to 2008 in Xiangyuan county, Yangcheng county, Qinxian county and Wuxiang county, Shanxi Province.In each follow-up visit, participants were examined by visual inspection with acetic acid, liquid-based cytology and HR-HPV DNA testing. Those with any positive results received colposcope and biopsies. The cumulative incidence rates of CIN grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) and CIN grade 3 or worse (CIN3+), regression rates and persistent rates were calculated using pathological findings as a gold standard. The risks of progression related with HR-HPV were evaluated stratified by baseline and follow-up HR-HPV status.
RESULTSA total of 228, 224, 261 and 105 CIN1 women received the 1-year, 2-year, 6-year and 11-year follow-up exams, respectively. The cumulative incidence rate of CIN2+ among baseline HR-HPV positive women was 4.8% (6/126), 10.7% (16/150), 16.9% (29/172) and 35% (19/55) in the above follow-up visits, respectively, and their risk of progression was 2.7(95%CI:0.3-22.0), 2.9 (95%CI:0.7-12.1), 12.0 (95%CI:1.7-86.2) and 30.6 (95%CI:1.9-493.5) times higher than baseline HR-HPV negative women. Moreover, the cumulative incidence of CIN2+ among women with positive HR-HPV both at baseline and follow-up visit was 11% (6/55), 14% (6/42), 17% (10/60) and 50% (13/26) in the above follow-up visits, respectively.No new CIN2+ cases were found among those with negative HR-HPV both at baseline and follow-up visits.
CONCLUSIONGiven that CIN1 progression is related to HR-HPV infection, different follow-up intervals and strategies for CIN1 should be taken according to HR-HPV infection status.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the value of colposcopical 4-quadrant biopsies for detecting precancerous lesion in cervical cancer screening.
METHODSWe used the data of a cross-sectional screening study in 1999, in which 1,997 women received cervical cancer screening in Xiang Yuan County, Shanxi province. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of both 4-quadrant biopsy and colposcopy directed biopsy to detect high-grade or more severe squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL+) were calculated.
RESULTS1,784(89.3%) women who received 4-quadrant biopsies and endocervical curettage were negative. 127(6.4%) women were diagnosed as LSIL, 74(3.7%) women as HSIL and 12(0.6%) cases of squamous cell carcinoma. 1,478(74.0%) women who received biopsies in the sites of abnormal lesions were negative, 463(23.2%) cases of LSIL, 41(2.1%) cases of HSIL, 15(0.8%) cases of squamous cell carcinoma. The positive rate was 26.0%(519/1,997) for colposcopy, and the coincidence rate was 73.7% with pathological diagnosis. Sensitivity and specificity were 81.4% and 76.5% of colposcopy for HSIL+. In total of 519 women were found to be with any abnormal colposcopic appearance. The consistency rate between 4-quadrant biopsies and suspicious lesion-directed biopsies was 96.3%. By suspicious lesion-directed biopsy alone, 14.8% cervical lesions were miss-diagnosed, of which 8.6%(5/58) cases of total HSIL and 24.1%(14/58) cases of all LSIL.
CONCLUSIONS4-quadrant biopsy can detect more HSIL+ lesions and is more accurate than suspicious lesion biopsy alone. As an important triage technique to detect cervical precancerous lesions, it can improve the detection rate of HSIL+ lesions in cervical cancer screening.
