Objective:
To understand the use of condom among middle school students after outpatient abortion operation, so as to provide a basis for safe sex education and intervention.
Methods:
The questionnaire survey on condom use was conducted among the middle school students who had abortion operation in obstetric and gynecologic out patient clinic of Yuyao People s Hospital from 2016 to 2020. Group differences were compared by using Chi square test.
Results:
A total of 274 middle school students were investigated. The awareness rates on "AIDS can be transmitted through sexual contact" and "correct use of condoms can reduce the risk of AIDS through sexual transmission" were 93.80% and 91.24% respectively. The rate of condom s usage was 17.88% in the past 6 months, 5.47% of participants used condoms every time, 12.41% used condoms occasionally, and 82.12% never used condoms. About 18.37% of participants who used condoms every time or occasionally could use correctly. The top three reasons were "I don t think it s so coincidental to get pregnant once in a while" (16.44%), "I think it s very troublesome to use it" (14.67%), "I didn t expect to use it, let alone prevent diseases" (14.22%).
Conclusion
Yuyao City flow of students related AIDS knowledge awareness rate is high, and the condom utilization rate, the correct utilization rate is very low. According to the main reasons of not wearing condoms, do a good job of the correct use of condom publicity, through targeted sex education and intervention, to achieve the purpose of from "knowledge" to "faith" and ultimately to "practice".

OBJECTIVE:
To compare the clinical efficacy of micro steel plate and Kirschner needle oblique and transverse internal fixation of adjacent metacarpal bone in the treatment of metacarpal diaphyseal oblique fracture.
METHODS:
Fifty-nine patients with metacarpal diaphyseal oblique fractures admitted between January 2018 and September 2021 were selected as the study subjects and divided into the observation group (29 cases) and the control group (30 cases) based on different internal fixation methods. The observation group was treated with Kirschner wire oblique and transverse internal fixation of adjacent metacarpal bones, while the control group was treated with micro steel plate internal fixation. Postoperative complications, operation time, incision length, fracture healing time, treatment cost, and metacarpophalangeal function were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS:
No incision or Kirschner wire infections occurred in the 59 patients, except for one in the observation group. No fixation loosening, rupture, or loss of fracture reduction occurred in any of the patients. The operation time and incision length in the observation group were (20.5±4.2) min and (1.6±0.2) cm, respectively, which were significantly shorter than those in the control group (30.8±5.6) min and (4.3±0.8) cm (P<0.05). The treatment cost and fracture healing time in the observation group were (3 804.5±300.8) yuan and (7.2±1.1) weeks, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group (9 906.9±860.6) yuan and (9.3±1.7) weeks (P<0.05). The excellent and good rate of metacarpophalangeal joint function in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group at 1, 2, and 3 months after operation (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the two groups at 6 months after operation (P>0.05).
CONCLUSION
Micro steel plate internal fixation and Kirschner wire oblique and transverse internal fixation of adjacent metacarpal bones are both viable surgical methods for treating metacarpal diaphyseal oblique fractures. However, the latter has the advantages of causing less surgical trauma, shorter operation time, better fracture healing, lower cost of fixation materials, and no need for secondary incision and removal of internal fixation.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of endoscopically nasojejunal feeding tube placement (ENFTP) for nutritional support in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods Those SAP patients who treated with ENFTP (n= 47) or with total parenteral nutrition (TPN) (n=50) were retrospectively analyzed for laboratory parameters before and 1,2 and 4 weeks after nutrition support. Outcomes in the two groups were compared with respect to complications,mortality, duration of feeding, feeding costs,mechanical ventilation time and length of ICU or hospital stay. Results Four weeks after nutrition sypport, the hemoglobin and albumin were increased in ENFTP group as compared to TPN groups (P < 0. 05), while the blood sugar was decreased significant in ENFTP group than in TPN group (P<0.05). The incidence of peripancreatic or biliary infection and catheter-related infection were lower in ENFTP group than in TPN group. Duration of feeding and hospital stay were shorter, and nutrition cost was lower in ENFTP group (P<0.05). In addition, the APACHE Ⅱ score was significantly improved in ENFTP group(P<0.05). Conclusion ENFTP seems to be safe and less expensive in treatment of patients with acute pancreatitis.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore gender difference in the clinical manifestations of two children with Keishi-Bukuryo-Gan syndrome (KBGS).
METHODS:
Clinical manifestations of the two children were reviewed. Genetic testing was carried out through next generation sequencing (NGS). Treatment was summarized, and the prognosis was followed up.
RESULTS:
Both children showed particular appearance including megatooth, abnormal hair distribution, hands' abnormality and language development delay. NGS revealed that both children have carried pathogenic variants of the ANKRD11 gene (c.1903_1907del and c.4911delT), which resulted in shifting of amino acid sequences starting from the Lysine and Proline at positions 635 and 1638, respectively. The female patient exhibited central precocious puberty. Her height has increased by 13 cm, and sex characteristics has retracted after treatment with leuprorelin for 23 months and recombinant human growth hormone for 1 month.
CONCLUSION
Comparison of the two cases with different genders and summary of previously reported cases found that male KBGS patients have more obvious dysmorphisms such as triangular face, synophrys, ocular hypertelorism and vertebral body abnormality, with higher morbidity of epilepsy, mental retardation, autism, congenital heart disease, immune thrombocytopenia and other complications. KBGS is an autosomal dominant disease featuring more evident peculiar appearance and global development delay. Male patients often have multi-system involvement, and multidisciplinary cooperation is required for early recognition of particular features in order to improve the prognosis.

Journal of Central South University(Medical Sciences) 2016;41(6):606-611
OBJECTIVE:
To explore the diagnostic value of human papillomavirus E6/E7 mRNA for residue and recurrence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) patients after cervical conization.
METHODS:
A total of 154 patients, who underwent cervical conization and possessed complete follow-up data of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CINII, III), were subjected to thin-prep cytology test (TCT), HPV-DNA typing and HPV E6/E7 mRNA test in 3-6 months and 12 months after cervical conization. Abnormal cytology (≥ASC-US) or high-risk HPV-DNA (+) or HPV E6/E7 mRNA (+) cases were found by colposcopy and cervical biopsy pathological diagnosis.
RESULTS:
Nine patients had residue and 22 recurred. HPV-DNA detections after cervical conization in 57 patients were positive. Among them, 30 patients had residual/recurrent lesions. HPV E6/E7 mRNA detections in 26 patients were positive. Among them, 24 patients had residual/recurrent lesions. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy of diagnosis in the detection of HPV-DNA were 96.8%, 78%, 52.6%, 99%, and 81.8%, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy of diagnosis in the detection of HPV E6/E7 mRNA were 77.4%, 98.4%, 92.3%, 94.5%, and 94.2%, respectively. The specificity and positive predictive value of HPV E6/E7 mRNA test were greater than those of HPV-DNA typing test. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
Detection of HPV E6/E7 mRNA during the follow-up period could timely and effectively forecast the risk of residue and recurrence of CIN after cervical conization, and reduce excessive examination and treatment.

MiRNAs are short, noncoding RNAs that modulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level and induce the degradation of the mRNA transcript or the inhibition of protein translation. Dicer is an endoribonuclease in the RNase III family that is essential for the production of miRNAs. The abnormal expression of Dicer is frequently found in the occurrence and development process of many kinds of tumors, which is closely related to the treatment and prognosis of tumor.
