Objective To investigate knowledge of cervical cancer,human papillomavirus (HPV) and HPV vaccine and attitude to HPV vaccine among employed urban women in China,and to assess willingness to vaccinate their children.Methods This study was conducted in women from 16 factories or companies in Beijing,Hangzhou,Changsha,Chcngdu and Guangzhou.A questionnaire on cervical cancer,HPV knowledge and HPV vaccine acceptability was administered to participants before and after educational intervention.Results A total of 1 146 women were surveyed from August to November,2011.The awareness rates of cervical cancer,HPV and HPV vaccine were 95.06 ％,27.98 ％ and 12.82 ％,respectively.Only 20.68 ％ knew that HPV was related to cervical cancer.After educatioual instruction,89.26 ％ understood the relationship between HPV and cervical cancer (x2 =93.414,P ＜ 0.001).Only 19.25 ％ women were unwilling to allow their children to be vaccinated.The main reasons were as follows:worried about vaccine safety (23.52 ％),belief that their child was not at risk (21.92 ％),lack of scientific evidence for the vaccine (13.01％),and worricd about vaccine efficacy (12.79 ％).Conclusions In general,there is a high acceptability of HPV vaccine to prevent cervical cancer among employed urban Chinese women after educational intervention.However,some women remain reluctant to vaccinate their children due to concern about vaccine safety and efficacy.

Objective To observe the efficacy and adverse reaction of raltitrexed combined with irino-tecan as first-line chemotherapy for recurrent or metastatic gastric cancer.Methods From January 201 4 to March 201 5,39 patients of recurrent or metastatic gastric cancer who received treatment in the First People′s Hospital of Zhangjiagang of Jiangsu Province were collected.All patients received raltitrexed (3.0 mg/m2 , 1 5 min intravenous drip)on the first day and irinotecan (1 80.0 mg/m2 ,90 min intravenous drip)on the first day.One cycle lasted 21 days.The efficacies were evaluated every 2-cycle.Adverse reactions were evaluated every cycle.Results The efficacies and adverse reactions could be evaluated in 39 patients.The study received 0 complete remission,1 6 partial remission,1 1 stable disease,1 2 progression disease.The objective response rate was 41 .03% (1 6 /39).The disease control rate was 69.23% (27 /39).The median overall sur-vival time was 9.3 months (95%CI:8.8-1 1 .1 months).The median progression-free survival time was 6.0 months (95%CI:5.1 -6.8 months).The adverse reactions were mainly neutropenia,anemia,liver dysfunc-tion,the incidence of them were 35.90%,33.33% and 28.21 % respectively.Conlusion Raltitrexed com-bined with irinotecan as first-line chemotherapy for recurrent or metastatic gastric cancer acquires an definite efficacy,and the adverse reactions can be tolerated,which is worthy of further clinical research.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the expression of endothelial differentiation gene/lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptors (Edg/LPA) and its clinical significance in human pancreatic cancer.MethodsFifty cases of pancreatic cancer and adjacent normal tissues were collected,and Real-time PCR,Western blot and immunohistochemistry was used to determine the expression of Edg-2/LPA1,Edg-4/LPA2 and Edg-7/LPA3 receptors mRNA and protein,and its relationship with clinicopathological parameters was analyzed.Results The expressions of Edg-2/LPA1,Edg-4/LPA2,Edg-7/LPA3 receptor mRNA were (0.142 ± 0.042 ) ％,(0.471 ±0.064)％,(0.231 ±0.043)％ in pancreatic cancer,and the corresponding values were (0.132 ±0.029)％,(0.027 ±0.015)％,(0.163 ±0.046)％ in adjacent normal tissues.The expressions of Edg-4/LPA2 receptor mRNA in pancreatic cancer were significantly lower than that in adjacent normal tissues ( P ＜0.05 ).The expressions of Edg-4/LPA2 receptor protein in pancreatic cancer were significantly lower than that in adjacent normal tissues ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The expressions of three types of Edg /LPA receptor mRNA in pancreatic cancer were parallel to serum CA19-9 levels.The expressions of Edg-4/LPA2 receptor mRNA were associated with tumor size,differentiation degree,and invasive ability and metastasis.While the expressions of Edg-2/LPA1,Edg-7/LPA3 receptor mRNA was associated with invasive ability and metastasis only.ConclusionsEdg-4/LPA2 receptor is highly expressed in pancreatic cancer,which suggesting the malignant biological behavior of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects and safety of acitretin for severe inherited keratodermas in children and adolescents. Methods Acitretin was given to 23 children and adolescents with either lamellar ichthyosis, bulbous ichthyosiform erythroderma, pityriasis rubra pillars, progressive sym- metrical erythrokeratoderma, keratitis ichthyosis deafness syndrome, generalized porokeratosis, inflammatory liner verrucous epidermal nevus, ichthyosis hystrix and non-bullous ichthyosiform erythroderma. The thera- peutic dosage was 0.67-1.07 mg/(kg?d),and maintenance dosage 0.08-0.94 mg/(kg?d).The effects on the patients' growth and development of the drug were evaluated based on the changes of body weight and height in the children. The total follow-up period was 6-35 months in an interval of 1-3 months. Results The considerable overall improvement was achieved after 1-6 months' treatment, with an overall clinical cure rate of 82.6%. Only one case responded poorly to the therapy. The excellent responses were observed in patients with bulbous ichthyosiform erythroderma, lamellar ichthyosis, and pityriasis rubra pillars, etc, and the much poor responses in ichthyosis hystrix. The most frequent adverse reaction was mild to moderate dry lips (65.2%),the next were pruritus(39.1%),skin fragility(34.8%),and dry mouth(30.4%).The less frequent adverse reactions were alopecia(13%),anorexia(8.7%),headache (4.3%) and hypoacusis (4.3%).No effects on the growth and development were found in those children during the follow up period. Conclusions The considerable overall improvement is achieved with the acitretin therapy for children and adolescents with inherited keratodermas, with only mild to moderate adverse reactions and no effects on the growth and development in the children.

The purpose was to optimize the vitrification for porcine embryos cryopreservation. Blastocyst/Morula (5-6th day-embryos) were collected from superovulated Bama mini-pigs (sows/gilts). We compared different cryopreservation methods, cryopreservation tools, thining of zona pellucida (ZP) and recipient breeds on the efficiency of porcine embryo cryopreservation. The results showed that: in embryo survival rate and blastocyst cell number, there were no significant differences between cryopreservation method I [embryos were vitrified by two step method with open pulled straw (OPS) and glass micropipette (GMP) in solution 1 (TCM199 + 20% FBS + 10% EG + 10% DMSO) for 3 min, and solution 2 (TCM199 + 20% FBS + 20% EG + 20% DMSO + 0.4 mol/L SUC) for 1 min, stored in liquid nitrogen] and method II[Blastocysts were cultured for 25 min in NCSU23 + 7.5 microg/mL cytochalasin B, centrifuged at approximately 13 000 xg for 12-13 min, and recovered back into pNCSU23. They were then equilibrated for 5 min in 2 mol/L ethylene glycol in pNCSU23, washed quickly in the vitrification medium, 8 mol/L ethylene glycol, 7% polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in pNCSU23, loaded into OPS/GMP, and plunged into liquid nitrogen]. GMP vitrification method was more suitable and efficient than OPS method (P < 0.05) in embryo survival rate (83.8% vs 77.6%) and blastocyst cell number (53.1 vs 47.5) after thawing. Thining of ZP did not increase the survival rate, but significantly improved blastocyst cell number in the survival blastcysts (60.1 and 46, P < 0.01). Local pig breeds (Fengjing sows) were more suitable as recipients for embryo transfer of vitrified/warmed blastcysts, which can improve pregnant rate and embryo efficiency.

Objective:To compare the detection rate of genital Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) DNA between urine and urethral/cervical swab samples. Methods:From December 2018 to December 2019, a total of 1 475 outpatients were collected from sexually transmitted disease clinics in 7 medical institutions, such as Department of Venereology, Guangzhou Institute of Dermatology, including 1 118 males and 357 females. One urethral/cervical swab sample and one urine sample were collected successively from each patient. Real-time fluorescence-based PCR was performed to detect CT DNA in urine and urethral/cervical swab samples, and paired chi-square test was used to compare the positive rate of CT DNA between the 2 kinds of samples. Random- or fixed-effect meta-analysis was conducted for the test of heterogeneity and merging of positive rates of CT DNA in the urine and urethral/cervical swabs among 7 medical institutions.Results:The positive rate of CT DNA in the urine samples was significantly higher than that in the swab samples from 4 medical institutions (all P < 0.05) , while there was no significant difference in the positive rate of CT DNA between the 2 kinds of samples from 3 medical institutions (all P > 0.05) . The heterogeneity ( I2) estimates of the CT-DNA positive rate in urine and swab samples among different medical institutions were 78.6% (95% CI: 55.9% - 89.6%) and 73.7% (95% CI: 43.7% - 87.7%) , respectively; meta-analysis showed that the total merged positive rate of CT DNA in the urine samples was 10.8% (95% CI: 7.2% - 15.9%) , which was significantly higher than that in the swab samples (7.8%, 95% CI: 4.9% - 12.1%; χ2 = 39.2, P < 0.05) . Compared with the swab sample-based CT-DNA detection method, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and consistency rate of the urine sample-based CT-DNA detection method were 97.0% (128/132) , 96.3% (1 293/1 343) , 71.9% (128/178) , 99.7% (1 293/1 297) , and 96.3% (1 421/1 475) , respectively. The positive rate of CT DNA in the urine samples from 1 118 male patients was 11.0% (95% CI: 7.2% - 16.5%) , which was significantly higher than that in the swab samples (7.6%, 95% CI: 4.9% - 11.8%; χ2 = 34.3, P < 0.05) . There was no significant difference in the positive rate of CT DNA between the urine (11.9%, 95% CI: 7.7% - 17.9%) and cervical swab samples from 357 female patients (10.4%, 95% CI: 7.6% - 14.0%; χ2 = 3.2, P > 0.05) . Conclusions:The positive rate of CT DNA in urine samples is higher than or similar to that in urethral/cervical swab samples. The urine sample-based CT-DNA detection method has characteristics of convenience, non-invasiveness, painlessness and low cost, and is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To explore the surgical method and clinical effect of forearm arterialized venous flap in repair of soft tissue defects of fingers.Methods:A total of 13 cases of finger soft tissue defects with exposure of deep tissue were repaired with forearm arterialized venous flap from January, 2013 to October, 2019. The flap was designed in the forearm, and 2 parallel superficial veins were selected, the diameter of vein was similar to that at recipient site. The long axis of the flap was the same as that of the vein, and the width of the flap was divided into 3 equal parts by the 2 superficial veins. The free flap was cut longitudinally in the middle between 2 vessels under microscope, and a width of about 2 mm of the subcutaneous tissue was removed to the subdermal vascular network. The communicating branch between 2 vessels was ligated, and the subcutaneous tissue between 2 vessels was cut completely. The flap was not inverted, and the cut area was 3.5 cm× 2.5 cm-7.0 cm×4.0 cm. The proximal ends of the 2 vessels in the flap were anastomosed with the arteries and veins of the recipient area.Results:Thirteen flaps survived, and 9 patient entered follow-up for an average of 11(3-23) months. The flaps were soft and had no effect on the joint movement, slightly bloated. The TPD of flaps was 9 - 18 mm, with an average of 13 mm.Conclusion:Forearm arterialized venous flap has the advantages of high survival rate, satisfactory function, finger pulp-type change, superficial location, easy harvest and no sacrifice of main artery. It is an ideal method for repairing finger soft tissue defects.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate effect of screening of esophageal cancer at rural areas in Henan province.

METHODSAt rural areas with high incidence of upper gastrointestinal carcinoma in Henan province total of 88,263 persons with 40 to 69 years old were set to the target population of the screening by the 12 cities and countries and endoscope and pathology diagnosis were performed during 2009-2013. For patients with precancerous lesions, follow-up visits were conducted and defined as follows: once in three years for patients with mild dysplasia, once per year for moderate hyperplasia patients, the patients with severe intraepithelial neoplasia/carcinoma in situ should be treat, at least once per year for those one who didn't under treatment. The result data of screening were summarized and detection rates of esophagus hyperplasia, carcinoma in situ, early and middle-late cancer were calculated, as well as the early diagnosis rate. The result between first round and follow-up screening was compared.

RESULTSTarget population were examined in first round screening. There were 8,434 persons with above mild dysplasia and the detection rate was 9.56%, among them there were 7,224 (8.18%) cases with light-middle hyperplasia, 789 (0.89%) cases with serious dysplasia or cancer in situ, 239 (0.27%) cases with early cancer and 182 (0.21%) cases with middle-late cancer. The sum of serious dysplasia or cancer in situ and early cancer was 1 028 and the early detection rate was 84.96% (1,028/1,210). From 2012 to 2013, the follow-up screening for persons with light-middle hyperplasia which should be followed 4,230 cases, there were 2 853 people to take in screening and compliance was 67.45%. Total of 94 cases were diagnosed with cancer in situ or early cancer. The detection rate and the early detection rate were 3.29% and 100%, respectively. The rates of detection and early detection in phase of follow-up screening were statistically significantly higher than that in first round screening respectively (P<0.001).

CONCLUSIONAt rural areas of high incidence upper gastrointestinal carcinoma in Henan province, the screening with endoscope had good effect and strengthening the follow-up screening could increase the effect.

Objective:To evaluate the role of adiponectin in sevoflurane pretreatment-induced improvement in cognitive function in mice with myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R).Methods:Thirty SPF healthy adult male wild-type C57 mice, aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (group Sham), myocardial I/R group (group MI/R) and sevoflurane pretreatment group (group SP). Another 10 SPF healthy male adiponectin knockout SPF mice, aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were selected and served as APNKO group.Myocardial I/R was induced by 30 min occlusion of anterior descending branch of left coronary artery followed by reperfusion.In SP and APNKO groups, sevoflurane pretreatment included 3 cycles of 10-minute inhalation of 2% sevoflurane-93% O 2-5% CO 2 interspersed with 15-minute inhalation of 95% O 2-5% CO 2, and then the model was established.At 1, 2 and 4 days of reperfusion, cognitive function was assessed by Morris water maze test. Results:There was no significant difference in swimming velocity at each time point between the 4 groups ( P>0.05). Compared with group Sham, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, and the frequency of crossing the original platform was decreased at each time point in group MI/R ( P<0.05). Compared with group MI/R, the escape latency was significantly shortened, and the frequency of crossing the original platform was increased at each time point in group SP ( P<0.05). Compared with group SP, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, and the frequency of crossing the original platform was decreased at each time point in group APNKO ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Adiponectin is involved in the process of sevoflurane pretreatment-induced improvement in cognitive function in mice with myocardial I/R.
