Objective To understand the prevalence rate of genital Chlamydia trachomatis among a population with suspected-Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection,the distribution of Chlamydia trachomatis genotypes,assess changes in omp1 sequences among patients with Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Chlamydia trachomatis coinfections.Methods Four hundred and one swabs were collected.Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae were detected by Roche Amplicor System.DNA were extracted from those samples and were amplified by nested PCR.PCR products were sequencing and analyzed by software Mega4.0.Results The prevalence of genital Chlamydia trachomatis infection,Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection and coinfection with genital gonorrhoea and genital chlamydia were 82.3%,24.2% and 21.7% each.Eight genotypes were identified in 73 sequences,including E(27.4%),G/Ga(23.3%),D/Da(16.4%),F(13.7%),J (11.0%),H(5.5%),B and K(each 1.4%).Sequencing analysis showed that 3 cases(4.1%) had missense mutation,including genotype D/Da,E,G/Ga.Genotypes F,H,J and K were more variable,however,most of them were silent mutation.Conclusion The prevalence rate of genital Chlamydia trachomatis among a population with Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection was high.The most common genotypes were genotype E,G/Ga,D/Da and F; Sequencing analysis has provided a tool for the molecular epidemiology of genital Chlamydia trachomatis infections.

Pancreatic schwannoma is extremely rare. In this paper, the clinical, pathological and imaging features of a case of pancreatic schwannoma were retrospectively analyzed and the literatures were reviewed to improve the diagnostic ability.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of common thyroid diseases and urinary iodine levels in the population migrated from inland to coastal areas and to evaluate the epidemiological trend of thyroid disease in Heibei Cangzhou. Methods A retrospective analysis method was adopted. All the persons who were employees of enterprises and institutions,were divided into three groups:the migrated group,who migrated from Cangzhou City and the west counties of Cangzhou City to the Port of Huanghua where they had settled permanently because of the job; the inland group, who lived in Cangzhou City all the time and the seaport group, who lived in the Port of Huanghua for a long-term. Migrated groups were divided into stable occupants and intermittent occupants. During 2010 - 2016, a follow-up survey was conducted in the three groups at Examination Center of Cangzhou Central Hospital Physical. We compared the cumulative incidences of thyroid diseases including: chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis (CLT), nodular thyroid disease and Graves's disease (GD). In migrated group, 28 persons who occasionally lived in the Port of Huanghua were detected urinary iodine levels intermittently.We compared the two parts of urinary iodine level changes for three times by collecting a urine sample,including one part from people who lived in the Port of Huanghua continuously for more than a month,and another part of people who lived in Cangzhou or Hejian County for more than half a month then returned to Port of Huanghua. Results In 2010 - 2016, a total of 7 180 residents were surveyed, of which 2 012 were in the migrated group, 2 858 were in the inland group and 2 310 in the seaport group. The incidences of CLT and nodular thyroid disease were 2.29% (46/2 012)and 8.60% (173/2 012)in the migrated group,which were much higher than that of the inland group and the seaport group [1.05% (30/2 858), 5.42% (155/2 858); 1.47% (34/2 310), 6.88% (159/2 310), P < 0.01 or < 0.05]. At the same time,the incidences of GD was 0.45%(9/2 012) in the migrated group, which was higher than that of the inland group [0.10% (3/2 858), P < 0.05]. In migrated group, there were 1 503 residencies, including 482 stable occupants and 1 021 intermittent residents. The incidences of CLT and nodular thyroid disease in intermittent residents were 3.23% (33/1 021) and 9.89% (101/1 021), which were much higher than that of stable occupants [1.45% (7/482), 6.64% (32/482), P < 0.05]. The urinary iodine levels in the persons who lived in the Port of Huanghua occasionally (464.6 μg/L) were much higher than that of the persons who lived in Cangzhou for a long time(301.4 μg/L, U = 4.648, P < 0.01).There was a marked fluctuation of the median of urinary iodine determined 6 times which were 485.7,285.2,431.7,310.6,470.3 and 304.4 μg/L,respectively.Conclusions The incidence of many thyroid diseases of people migrated from inland to coastal areas has increased, which is not only higher than that of inland people,but also higher than that of coastal people.Large fluctuations in iodine intake due to migration flow and residential instability may be part of the reason for the high incidence of thyroid diseases. In the future, we should pay more attention to thyroid diseases of migratory population.
