Objective To improve the diagnostic rate of mammary ductal disease by galactography and mammoscopy.Methods 100 cases of the galactographic and mommoscopy materials were retrospectively analyzed.Results Tumorous diseases including intraductal papilloma,intraductal papillary carcinoma and ductal carcinoma,they accounted for 14%,intraductal papilloma and intraductal papillary carcinoma were the most in this group(12%).Non-tumorous diseases including mammary ductal ectasia with chronicmastitis,plasma cell mastitis,mammary cyst,lobular hyperplasia and cystic hyperplasia,they accounted for 71%,mammary ductal ectasia was the most in this group(42%).Conclusion The galactography and mammoscopy are very valuable in the diagnosis and differentiating diagnosis of mammary ductal diseases.

Objective To explore the efficacy of cold packs combined with ice compress in treatment of pain after erbium fractional photothermal therapy on acne scars. Methods Eighty cases which were confirmed to the criteria were randomized into two groups:treatment group and control group. The treatment group (n=40) treated with cold packs combined with cold icy compress immediately after the surgery for 30~40 mins. The control group (n=40) was given icy compress therapy immediately after the surgery for 30~40 mins. The therapy continued for three days after the surgery on the two groups. The self-feeling symptom and pain relieving time were compared between the two groups. Result The time for pain relief in the wounds and the time for scabbing were both significantly shorter than those in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion The cold packs combined with ice compress therapy can relieve the pains effectively and it can shorten the recovery time after fractional photothermal therapy.

Objective:
The objective of this study was to identify the risk factors for postoperative pathological escalation of endometrial cancer in patients with a pathologic diagnosis of endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN) before surgery. Some of the clues from the preoperative assessment were used to build a nomogram to predict the likely pathological escalation after surgery, and to explore the feasibility of sentinel lymph node biopsy in these patients with possible pathological escalation.
Methods:
This was a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent surgical treatment for EIN diagnosed before surgery between 2018 and 2023 in The Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University. parameters including clinical, radiological and histopathological factors were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression to determine the correlation with pathology upstaging. A nomogram based on the multivariate results was developed to predict the probability of pathology upstaging. A total of 729 patients were included, divided into training set and validation set. 484 patients were used to build the model. This nomogram was subsequently validated using 245 patients.
Results:
Upstaging to endometrial carcinoma occurred in 115 (23.8 percent) of 484 women treated between 2018 and 2023 in training set. A lager endometrial thickness (at least 15 mm), menopause, hypertension, HE4, and endometrial blood were significantly associated with upstaging. A nomogram developed using these factors demonstrated good predictive performance (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC)=0.6808; 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.6246–0.7369). The nomogram showed similar predictive performance in the validation data set, based on another 245 women (AUC=0.7821; 95% CI=0.7076–0.8567).
Conclusion
This study developed a novel nomogram based on the 5 most important factors, which can accurately predict invasive cancer. It is common for women with preoperative diagnosis of EIN to experience pathological progression to endometrial cancer. For some patients with postoperative pathological escalation, we found lymph node metastasis. This nomogram may be useful to help doctor decide whether to perform sentinel lymph node biopsy for surgical staging in these EIN patients. According to the nomogram, simultaneous sentinel lymph node biopsy in patients with high probability of postoperative pathological upgrading can provide better guidance for postoperative adjuvant treatment of endometrial cancer and avoid the occurrence of secondary surgery.

Objective To explore the effect of nursing intervention of national free progestation eugenic health examination on service objects planned to pregnancy.Methods A total of 872 couples in Panyu District of Guangzhou were selected from January 2014 to January 2016 based on convenient sampling. All of them complied with family planning policy, planned to pregnancy and received national free progestation eugenic health examination. The participants were divided into control group (n=436) and observation group (n=436) according to the method of lottery. The control group received national free eugenic health examination, and the observation group received additional nursing care and comprehensive guidance based on the control group. The distribution of high-risk factors of the couples was recorded. The knowledge of birth defects and progestational eugenics and the pregnancy outcomes were observed.Results There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of reproductive tract infection, pre-pregnancy virus screening, abnormal pre-pregnancy laboratory findings, adverse pregnancy outcome, family history of high risk, wife/husband environmental exposure, and other high-risk factors between two groups (P>0.05). There were significant differences in health and nutrition during pregnancy, the optimal reproductive age, the importance of progestation examination, the normal physiological process of pregnancy, the time of folic acid supplementation, and the prevention of birth defects between two groups (P<0.05). The observation group had significantly higher normal pregnancy rate and lower miscarriage and stillbirth rate compared with the control group (95.15% vs. 85.82% for normal pregnancy; 2.99% vs. 13.42% for miscarriage; 0.75% vs. 1.87% for stillbirth;P<0.05).Conclusions Nursing intervention in progestation eugenic health examination can effectively improve the eugenic knowledge, attitude and behavior, and the outcome of pregnancy. It can reduce the risk of birth defects.

Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death,which is distinct from apoptosis,ne-crosis,and pyroptosis.Recent studies have found that activators of ferroptosis,such as Erastin,can activate autophagy-re-lated proteins,induce the formation of autophagosomes,and ultimately release ferric ions to mediate ferroptosis.This pro-cess,called ferritinophagy,is initiated by the binding of an autophagic cargo receptor protein,nuclear receptor coactivator 4(NCOA4),to iron-laden ferritin.The transfer of NCOA4-ferritin to the lysosome by ferritinophagy results in the proteoly-sis of ferritin,and,in turn,the release of its iron content and lipid-reactive oxygen species(ROS)accumulation.Ferritin-ophagy has been closely associated with central nervous system disorders,circulatory system diseases,and cancer.Fur-thermore,the regulation mechanism of ferritinophagy is also a hot topic in the study of iron-dependent cell death process.With the in-depth study of ferritinophagy,great progress has been made in the study of key components of ferritinophagy as well as its molecular mechanisms and processes.However,a comprehensive summary of the methods for detecting ferritin-ophagy is still unclear.To further deepen the understanding of ferritinophagy and its detection methods,this review focus-es on the concept,characteristics,methods,and precautions during detection of ferritinophagy.This review provided ex-perimental reference for subsequent researchers and promoting the progress of research related to ferritinophagy.
