Objective:
To investigate the current awareness of core knowledge about cancer prevention and its influencing factors among residents in Zhejiang Province, in order to provide a reference for formulating provincial health education strategies of cancer prevention.
Methods :
From November 2019 to October 2020, the permanent residents aged 18-74 years in Zhejiang Province were selected using multi-stage stratified sampling method. A questionnaire was designed according to Core Information and Knowledge on Cancer Prevention to collect general information, health status, and awareness of core knowledge about cancer prevention. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors.
Results:
Among 6 974 valid respondents, 3 139 ( 45.01% ) were males and 3 835 ( 54.99% ) were females. The overall awareness rate of core knowledge about cancer prevention was 74.66%; the awareness rates of basic knowledge, risk factors and primary prevention, screening and early diagnosis as well as treatment and rehabilitation were 79.08%, 80.83%, 76.08% and 82.99%, respectively. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the residents who were in rural areas ( OR=0.659, 95%CI: 0.585-0.743 ), ≥45 years old ( OR: 0.794-0.801, 95%CI: 0.655-0.981 ) and with obesity (OR=0.531, 95%CI: 0.436-0.647) had lower awareness rates, while the residents who were with an educational level of junior high school/technical school/senior high school or above ( OR: 1.390-4.361, 95%CI: 1.208-5.600 ), married (OR=1.414, 95%CI: 1.142-1.752), administrative/technical personnel ( OR=2.602, 95%CI: 2.005-3.377 ), service staff/private business owners ( OR=1.368, 95%CI: 1.111-1.684), retired ( OR=1.345, 95%CI: 1.105-1.639 ) and others ( OR=1.542, 95%CI: 1.295-1.838 ), and with experience of cancer screening or examination ( OR=1.267, 95%CI: 1.123-1.428 ) had higher awareness rates.
Conclusions
The awareness rate of core knowledge about cancer prevention in Zhejiang Province is 74.66%. Health education for the residents aged ≥45 years, living in rural areas, having low educational levels, and having obesity should be

Objective:To investigate whether miR-9 plays a role in regulating glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) expression, affecting Wnt/β-catenin pathway activity and the patho-genesis of Osteo-arthritis (OA).Methods:The cartilage tissue of OA patients and normal cartilage tissue after traumatic amputation were collected, and the expressions of miR-9 and GSK-3β were compared. The double luciferase gene reporting test verified whether there was a targeted regulatory relationship between miR-9 and GSK-3β. OA rat model was established and compared with sham group, enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect hydroxyproline (Hyp) content in joint fluid.A kit was used to detect caspase-3 activity, and miR-9 and GSK-3β expression differences were detected in cartilage tissue. The OA model rats were divided into 3 groups: the sham group, the OA+ antagomiR-NC group, the OA + antagomiR-9 group. ELISA was used to detect Hyp content in joint fluid, kit was used to detect caspase-3 activity, and flow cytometry was used to detect cell cartilage tissue. Apoptosis, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot were used to detect the expression of miR-9, GSK-3β, β-catenin and COL2A1. The comparison of mea-surement data between the two groups was conducted by t-test. The comparison of measurement data between multiple groups was conducted by one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) analysis of variance, and then Bon-ferroni method was used for comparison between the two groups. P<0.05 was considered as statistically sign-ificant. Results:The miR-9 expression of cartilage tissue were (1.09±0.25) in the control group, and (2.86±0.25) in the OA group ( t=24.30, P<0.01). The GSK-3 β mRNA expression of cartilage tissue was (0.99±0.11) in the control group, and (0.53±0.10) in the OA group ( t=15.40, P<0.01). There was a targeted regulatory relationship between miR-9 and GSK-3β. The miR-9 expression of cartilage tissue was (1.00±0.21) in the sham group, and (2.61±0.36) in the OA group (t=9.462, P<0.01). The GSK-3 β mRNA expression of cartilage tissue was (1.00±0.18) in the sham group, and (0.52±0.09) in the OA group ( t=5.842, P <0.01). The Hyp content of joint fluid was (10±3) ng/ml in the sham group, and (50±8) ng/ml in the OA group ( t=11.015, P<0.01). The Caspase-3 activity of cartilage tissue was (1.00±0.19) in the sham group, and (2.43±0.36) in the OA group ( t=8.605, P<0.01). The miR-9 expression of cartilage tissue was (2.86±0.31) in the OA+antagomir NC group, and (1.67±0.19) in the OA + antagomir-9 group ( F=105.2, P<0.01). The GSK-3β mRNA expression of cartilage tissue was (0.41±0.09) in the OA antagomir NC group, and (0.81±0.09) in the OA + antagomir-9 group ( F=49.32, P<0.01). The Hyp content of joint fluid was (52.3±6.8) ng/ml in the OA + antagomir NC group, and (30.3±3.4) ng/ml in the OA + antagomir-9 group ( F=119.7, P<0.01). The caspase-3 activity of cartilage tissue was (2.22±0.23) in the OA + antagomir NC group, and (1.43±0.14) in the OA+ antagomir NC group ( F=72.55, P<0.01). Compared with OA + antagomir NC group, the expression of β-Catenin protein in the OA + miran-tagomir-9 group wasdecreased, the expression of GSK-3 β and COL2A1 protein wasincreased, and cell apo-ptosis wasdecreased. Conclusion:The increased expression of miR-9 plays a role in reducing the expression of GSK-3β, enhancing the activity of Wnt/β-catenin pathway, promoting the degradation, destruction of cartilage matrix and the pathogenesis of OA. Inhibition of miR-9 expression can reduce the protective effect of OA.

Objective:To investigate cancer mortality in Zhejiang cancer registration areas from 2010 to 2014. Methods:Cancer regis-tration data were collected from 14 cancer registries of Zhejiang province. The number of cases, crude rates, proportions, age stan-dardized rates, cumulative rates, cut rates, age-specific rates, top 10 mortality ranks, and annual percentage change (APC) of cancer mortality were calculated. Results:A total of 108,514 cancer deaths in Zhejiang cancer registration areas from 2010 to 2014, including 70,578 males and 37,936 females, were recorded. The crude mortality rate was 186.06/105. The standardized mortality rates in Chi-nese (ASMRC) and world populations were 103.02/105 and 101.73/105, respectively. The cumulative mortality rate (0-74 years old) was 11.46%. The ratio of ASMRC in male and female was 1.95, and that in urban and rural areas was 0.93. Age-specific cancer mortality in-creased significantly after 40 years old and peaked at the 85+age group. The crude cancer mortality increased from 2010 (182.85/105) to 2014 (191.00/105) by 4.46%. After age standardization, the mortality rate standardized by Chinese population was reduced from 107.85/105 to 100.60/105. The APC of ASMRC was-1.96%(P=0.017). The top three mortality cancers were lung cancer, liver cancer and gastric cancer. The top 10 cancers accounted for 89.51%of all cancer deaths. The mortality rates in different age groups were inconsis-tent. Leukemia was the main cancer type among 0~14-year-old population. Liver cancer was the most common cancer type in 15~44-year-old population. Lung cancer was the main cancer in population above 45 years old. The ASMRCs of liver cancer, gastric cancer and esophageal cancer decreased, whereas those of pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer and ovarian cancer increased. Conclusion:Can-cer mortality in Zhejiang cancer registration areas increased, which revealed that the number of cancer deaths will continue to in-crease. However, the ASMRC decreased, which indicated that cancer prevention in Zhejiang province had achieved certain effects. Fur-ther measurements, such as health education, cancer screening, and early detection and treatment, should be improved to reduce the danger of cancer.
