Objective To investigate and evaluate the detection and the variety of histology type constituent of the thyroid malignant tumor before and after universal salt iodization.Methods 1011 clinical pathological data of thyroid malignant tumor confirmed pathologically from 1961 to 2000 was retrospectively analyzed.The detection rate of thyroid malignant tumor,the constituent ratios of each histology type and the changes of age and sex distribution in main types of thyroid malignant tumor were determined.Results The total detection rate of thyroid malignant tumor after universal salt iodization (USI) (0.69%) were obviously increased compared with before universal salt iodization(0.46%,P40 years old) than before USI(≤40 years old).The incidence rates of thyroid malignant tumor in female patients were higher than male patients before and after USI.Conclusion The proportion and average age of thyroid malignant tumor increases after USI.The histological types of thyroid carcinoma have changes after USI:the proportion of PC increases obviously,the proportion of FC decreases accordingly.The average age of thyroid malignant tumor sufferers tends to increase and the peak ages of PC,FC and UC raise after USI.

Objective To investigate potential causative associations between immunophenotype traits and cervical cancer by using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Methods The genetic instrumental variables (IVs) of 731 immunophenotypes of peripheral blood were obtained from the GWAS Catalog database. The GWAS summary data of cervical cancer were obtained from FinnGen database. The inverse-variance weighted (IVW), weighted mode, weighted median, and MR Egger methods were used for evaluations. The sensitivity analysis and reverse Mendelian randomization analysis were conducted to eliminate bias and reverse causality. The MR Steiger directionality test was further used to ascertain the reverse causal relationship between immune cells and cervical cancer. Results A total of 71 immune cell subtypes associated with cervical cancer were identified, of which 31 had a strong association. The majority of the B cell panel was protective factors for cervical cancer. B-cell activating factor receptor (BAFF-R) was the most frequently expressed molecule in this analysis. It is expressed on several B cell subtypes. The CD20 on IgD+ CD38+ B cell (OR=1.887, 95%CI: 1.078-3.306, P=0.026) is the risk factor for cervical cancer. In cDC panels, the CD123 expression on plasmacytoid dendritic cell (OR=2.48, 95%CI: 1.229-5.003, P=0.011), CD123 expression on CD62L+ plasmacytoid dendritic cell (OR=2.5, 95%CI: 1.231-5.077, P=0.011), CD80 expression on plasmacytoid dendritic cell (OR=2.62,95%CI:1.244-5.515, P=0.011), and CD80 expression on CD62L+ plasmacytoid dendritic cell (OR=2.641, 95%CI: 1.246-5.596, P=0.011) were positively associated with the incidence of cervical cancer. All gynecological cancers in this study have no statistically significant effect on immune cells, according to reverse MR analysis. Conclusion This study emphasized the genetically predicted causality between immune cells and cervical cancer. In clinical practice, it is important to pay attention to the screening of peripheral blood immune cells for patients with cervical cancer.
