Objective: To investigate the relationship between human papilloma virus (HPV) gene types and cervical diseases. Methods:The subjects included women with HPV who were diagnosed in the Outpatient Department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University (Guangzhou, China) from March 1, 2010 to January 31, 2011. A total of 21 HPV DNA types were found in the women using DNA flow-though hybridization genotyping technique, and a questionnaire-type survey was conducted on these pa-tients. In this study, 256 cases of normal or inflamed cervix, 34 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia I (CINⅠ), 61 cases of CINⅡor CINⅢ, and 9 cases of cervical cancer were analyzed. Results:The HPV infection rates were 18.4%in the normal cervical or inflam-mation group, 67.6%in the CINⅠgroup, 96.7%in the CINⅡor CINⅢgroup, and 100%in the cervical cancer group. The HPV in-fection rate was higher in the CIN I group than in the normal HPV infection or inflammation group (P<0.001) and was higher in the CIN Ⅱ or CIN Ⅲ groups than in the CIN I group (P<0.001). The main types of infection were HPV16 (44.2%), HPV58 (24.2%), HPV52 (11.6%), and HPV33 (8.4%) in the CIN groups. The main type of infection was HPV16 in the cervical cancer group (88.9%). Conclusion: Cases of cervical lesions are increasing. With this prevalence of HPV, considerable attention should be focused on HPV16-, 58-, 52-, and 33-related infections and cervical lesions. Among them, HPV16 infection is the primary cause of disease progres-sion and carcinogenesis.

Objective To investigate the effects of clinical pathway-based teaching methods in clinical teaching of hematology. Methods Interns, which studied in department of hematology, were classified non-randomized into two groups. The interns in experimental group received idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) clinical pathway-based teaching. And the interns in the control group received the seventh edition textbook of medicine-based traditional teaching. All interns were oral tested when they finished two weeks period clinical studied of hematology. Meanwhile, a questionnaire designed for clinical pathway-based teaching was included in this test only for the experimental group. Results There were 32 interns recruited in the group of clinical pathway-based teaching and 38 interns in the control group of traditional teaching. There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in the fields of the key points about history of diseases ( = 0.0017), assessment of diagnostic criteria and differential diagnosis ( =0.0074), selection of laboratory examination items ( <0.0001) for ITP. The group of clinical pathway-based teaching achieved higher scores than the control group. However, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the field of selection of first-line treatment measure of ITP ( = 0.1155) . Moreover, the control group achieved higher scores than the group of clinical pathway-based teaching in the field of how to treat ITP patients with first-line treatment failure ( =0.0003) . In addition,there were 93.8%interns in the experimental group accepted the new clinical pathway-based teaching tool in the survey. The open-ended question survey showed the clinical pathway teaching method was more simple, intuitive and standardizing than the traditional one. Conclusion The ITP clinical pathway, as an interns teaching tool of hematology, is helpful for understanding more clearly the diagnosis and treatment of ITP. However, an in-depth explanation is necessary combination with textbook of medicine study in the clinical teaching of ITP.

Objectives To evaluate the clinical value of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in the treatment of local advanced cervical cancer. Methods We searched the clinical trials on the treatment of local advanced cervical cancer with NACT followed by surgery versus initial surgery on English and Chinese published literatures from the main medical data resources (MEDLINE, PUBMED, ELSEVIER ScienceDirect, CNKI). The data about positive pelvic nodes, interstitial infiltration, vascular invasion, positive surgical margin, 3-year overall survival (OS), 3-year disease-free survival (DFS), 5-year OS, 5-year DFS were extracted from these papers, and a meta-analysis was applied. Result The hazard ratio (HR) of positive pelvic nodes on NACT group versus control group was 0. 54(95% CI 0. 33 ~0. 86), HR of interstitial infiltration was 0. 45(95% CI 0. 24 ~0. 86), HR of vascular invasion was 0. 25(95% CI 0. 16 ~0. 38), all differences were statistically significant. And HR of positive surgical margin was 0. 45 ( 95% CI 0. 21 ~0. 99), P = 0. 05, which indicated the difference was not statistically significant. And there were also no significant difference on the HR of 3-year OS, 3-year DFS, 5-year OS and 5-year DFS, and their RR were 1.18(95% CI 0. 84 ~ 1.66) ,1.31 (95% CI 0. 96 ~ 1.78) ,0. 89(95% CI 0. 68 ~ 1.15) ,and 0. 99(95% CI 0. 71 ~ 1.93) respectively. Conclusion For local advanced cervical cancer, NACT could reduce pathological risk factors but it did not improve the survival.

OBJECTIVE Aim to explore the value and the selection of observation target of P1 component in children with cochlear implant(CI). METHODS 13 children(4.37±0.73 years old) with right side CI and one year of regular post-CI rehabilitation were recruited as CI group. 15 gender and age (4.25±0.84)years matched children with left side external and middle ear malformation were selected as control group. We collected their AEP which showed their reaction to 1000 Hz pure tone and analyzed the P1 component. RESULTS The cut off value between CI group and control groupwas 10.4mV for P1 Amplitude(P1A) and 110.5 mV for P1 Latency(P1L). More precisely, the values of CI group were above the cut off value while the values of control group were below it. Whether choosing P1A or P1L as dividing standard, the AUC were between 0.5 and 0.9(AUC: P1A0.733, P1L0.800), which showed medium distinguishing significance. P1L component showed greater You-den index(0.590>0.471) and sensitivity(0.923> 0.538) while P1A showed greater specificity(0.933>0.667). CONCLUSION P1L shows greater ability in distinguishing the difference between CI group and control group while P1A has advantage in determining their common feature. Generally, P1L shows higher value in studying CI children. We need to make choice between P1A and P1L in different situation and use P1A and P1L standard in series or parallel.
