Objective To investigate the MRI findings of perihip heterotopic ossification (HO) in the early, mid and late stages. Meth-ods The MRI of 44 inpatients with HO from February, 2011 to September, 2013 were reviewed, in which 20 cases (28 joints) were in early stage, 18 cases (24 joints) in mid stage and 6 cases (8 joints) in late stage. For the enhanced T1WI, 9 cases (11 joints) were in early stage, 6 cases (7 joints) in mid stage, and 3 cases (4 joints) in late stage. Theχ2 trend test was used to evaluate the MRI signal change with the HO maturity. Results With the maturity of hip HO, the signal intensity of T2WI reduced (χ2=16.773, P<0.001), fat signal on T1WI increased, the enhancement reduced (χ2=16.048, P=0.007). Conclusion The MRI findings of perihip HO are characteristic in MRI in all the stages. MRI is useful for the diagnosis of perihip HO, especially for the early HO.

Objective :
To investigate the factors affecting multiple sexual partner behaviors among men who have sex with men (MSM) at ages of 16 to 24 years in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the evidence for formulating the integrated interventions for HIV/AIDS among adolescents.
Methods :
The demographic features, sexual behaviors and HIV testing were collected from MSM at ages of 16 to 24 years in Zhejiang Province through the Management Information System of China AIDS Fund for Non-governmental Organizations (CAFNGO) in 2021. The factors affecting multiple sexual partner behaviors were identified among MSM at ages of 16 to 24 years using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results :
A total of 1 253 participants were enrolled, with a mean age of (21.16±2.06) years. There were 1 219 unmarried respondents (97.29%), 807 (64.61%) with diploma and above, 250 (19.95%) with multiple sexual partners during the past 3 months, 344 (27.45%) with unprotected sexual behaviors in the past 3 months, 71 (5.67%) that had used rush or new drugs, 511 (40.78%) that were unaware of their sexual partners' HIV infections, 28 (2.23%) with symptoms or diagnosis of sexually transmitted diseases, and 35 (2.79%) with positive HIV testing. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified age (19 years-, OR=2.563, 95%CI: 1.404-4.679; 22 to 24 years, OR=2.149, 95%CI: 1.180-3.913), having unprotected sexual behaviors in the past 3 months (OR=5.338, 95%CI: 3.938-7.237), having used rush or new drugs in the past 3 months (OR=3.669, 95%CI: 2.142-6.286), unaware of sexual partners' HIV infections(OR=1.402, 95%CI: 1.032-1.903), and positive HIV tests (OR=2.763, 95%CI: 1.298-5.880) as factors affecting multiple sexual behaviors among MSM at ages of 16 to 24 years.
Conclusions
The multiple sexual behaviors correlate with age, unprotected sexual behaviors, use of rush or new drugs and unawareness of sexual partners' HIV infections among MSM at ages of 16 to 24 years.

Objective:
To investigate the characteristics of AHFtest-based HIV antibody self-testing among male adolescents at ages of 15 to 24 years, so as to provide insights into the promotion of HIV antibody self-testing.
Methods:
Data were collected from male adolescents at ages of 15 to 24 years that applied for HIV antibody self-testing in the AHFtest platform from 2019 to 2021, with mailing address showing as Zhejiang Province, and demographics, applying cause and testing results were analyzed.
Results:
A total of 268 male adolescents were enrolled, with a median age of 22.00 (interquartile range, 3.00) years. There were 160 cases with an educational level of junior college/bachelor (59.70%), 147 students (54.85%), 175 men who had sex with men (65.30%), and 126 cases with a history of previous HIV antibody self-testing (47.01%). The main causes for applying for HIV antibody self-testing through AHFtest were "easy to operate" (259 cases, 96.64%) and "privacy protect" (102 cases, 38.06%). There were 203 subjects that applied once HIV antibody self-testing (75.75%), and 65 subjects that applied multiple self-testing (24.25%). There were 123 subjects that uploaded their test results (45.90%), including 3 cases with HIV antibody positive, and 125 subjects that did not tell others the self-testing results (46.64%).
Conclusions
Among male applicants at ages of 15 to 24 years in Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2021, students are predominant occupation. Easy to operate and privacy protect are the main cause for the application, but the proportion of detection results uploading is relatively low.

Objective:
To investigate the characteristics of temporary heterosexual behaviors among male college students through Internet dating, so as to provide insights into HIV/AIDS control among young college students.
Methods:
A total of 15 universities/colleges were sampled from Zhejiang Province using a stratified cluster sampling method, and 3 schools/departments were sampled from each university/college. Male college students with temporary heterosexual behaviors during the past year were recruited. Participants' demographics, AIDS-related knowledge, compliance to HIV/AIDS interventions, Internet dating and sexual behaviors were collected, and the characteristics of male college students with Internet dating were analyzed.
Results :
A total of 326 students were enrolled, including 202 participants from regular institutions of higher education (61.96%) and 124 students from higher vocational colleges (38.04%). There were 79 freshmen (24.23%), 99 sophomores (30.37%), 104 juniors (31.90%) and 44 seniors (13.50%), and there were 100 participants (30.67%) with temporary heterosexual behaviors through Internet dating during the past year. Among the 100 participants, there were 75.00% of participants knowing “man who have sex with man is the main transmission pattern of AIDS among young students in China”, 93.00% knowing “insisting on accurate use of condoms may reduce the risk of HIV infections and transmission” and 93.00% knowing “seeking HIV testing and counseling actively following high-risk behaviors”. There were 77 participants (77.00%) with students as their temporary heterosexual partners, 17 participants (17.00%) that had received HIV self-testing and 17 participants (17.00%) that had received HIV testing in medical institutions, 22 participants (22.00%) that had never used condoms during temporary heterosexual behaviors during the past year, and 29 participants (29.00%) with commercial sexual behaviors during the past year. In addition, male college students with temporary heterosexual behaviors through Internet dating were more unlikely to use condoms and more likely to have commercial sexual behaviors than those with dating through other ways (P<0.05).
Conclusions
Male college students with temporary heterosexual behaviors through Internet dating are more likely to have high-risk sexual behaviors than those with dating through other ways. Internet-based mobile sexual education and HIV/AIDS health education are recommended.

Objective :
To analyze the problems in the AIDS control strategy in key areas of Zhejiang Province, so as to provide insights into the improvement of the control strategy.
Methods :
The AIDS control data were collected from 10 key counties (districts) in Zhejiang Province, and the AIDS control strategy was comprehensively evaluated using a SWOT analysis.
Results :
The strengths of the AIDS control strategy in key counties (districts) of Zhejiang Province included distinct working objectives, well-organized leadership, and effective control measures, the weaknesses included large number of HIV-infected cases, high burden of disease, difficulty in management of AIDS transmission and insufficient AIDS control capability, and the opportunities included the AIDS control in key counties (districts) conforming to the current status of AIDS control, strong support of innovative strategies and technical support from professional teams, while the threats included insufficient working mechanisms for AIDS control, the gap between the effectiveness of AIDS control and the target goal and unverified scientific evidence of the control strategy. Supported policies should be fully used, working mechanisms need to be improved, control strategies need to be innovated, and assessments need to be implemented for AIDS control in key counties (districts).
Conclusions
There are both opportunities and challenges for AIDS control in key counties (districts) of Zhejiang Province. Optimization of the working mechanisms, promotion of precision interventions, and search for repeatable control strategy in other disease-affected regions are required for AIDS control.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of CENPF in NSCLC adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and the clinical prognosis of patients and its effect on the metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma cells. Methods The expression of CENPF in LUAD and its relationship with patient prognosis were analyzed by online bioinformatics. The expression of CENPF was verified by LUAD tissue microarray immunohistochemical staining. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between the expression of CENPF and the prognosis of patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Cox survival hazard ratio was used to analyze the factors affecting the survival of patients. Chi-square analysis was adopted to examine the relationship between CENPF expression and clinicopathological stage and grade of patients. The expression of CENPF in NCI-H2126 cells were knocked out by lentivirus, and then the proliferation, invasion, and migration abilities of the cells were detected. Changes in mRNA expression profiles after CENPF knockout were detected by RNA-seq. Bioinformatics analysis of downstream signaling pathways and the target genes of CENPF was also performed. Western blot was used to verify the target gene. Results CENPF was significantly upregulated in LUAD tumor tissue (
