Objective:To evaluate the 10-year protective effect and immunogenicity of quadrivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine in Chinese women aged 20 to 45 years.Methods:From October 2019 to April 2020, a long-term follow-up study was conducted on the subjects of the Phase III clinical trial of the quadrivalent HPV vaccine (NCT00834106). Participants underwent a questionnaire survey, venous blood sampling, gynecological examination, cervical exfoliated cell pathology examination, and serum neutralizing antibody titers for HPV-6, 11, 16, and 18 were measured using a pseudovirus neutralization assay. The results of the cytological examination and the positive rate and titers of serum antibodies of different cervical exfoliated cells were compared.Results:A total of 889 subjects were followed up, including 240 in the control group, 453 in the vaccination group and 196 in the post-trial vaccination group. The age of the control group was (40±7) years old, which was higher than that of the supplementary vaccination group and the vaccination group [(38±4) and (38±6) years old, respectively] ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in condom use and sexual frequency among all groups (all P values>0.05). The abnormal proportion of cervical exfoliation cytopathology in the vaccination group was 3.7% (17/453), which was significantly lower than that in the control group [9.6% (23/240)] and post-trial vaccination group [5.6% (11/196)] ( P<0.05). There were two cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 1 in the vaccination group, two cases of CIN grade 1 and three cases of CIN grade 2 and above in the control group, and no CIN grade 1 and above cases in the post-trial vaccination group. The positive rate of HPV-18 antibody was 35.5% (161/453) in the vaccination group and 76.0% (149/196) in the post-trial vaccination group, which was significantly lower than that of other types ( P<0.05). The neutralizing antibody GMT ratio between the vaccination group and the control group ranged from 2.62 to 25.33 (9.05 to 83.08). Conclusion:Protective neutralizing antibodies are sustained in Chinese women aged 20 to 45 years after ten years of vaccination with quadrivalent HPV vaccine.

Purpose To explore the influence of different spin-locking frequencies on T1ρ values based on a 3.0T MR system.Materials and Methods Thirty-eight healthy adult volunteers underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging at the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from July to September 2023.T1ρ mapping and short-axis cine imaging with steady-state free precession sequences were performed with 3.0T MR system.T1ρ mapping sequence in three short-axis slices with three spin-lock frequencies at the amplitude of 5 Hz,300 Hz,400 Hz,and 500 Hz was scanned,respectively.T1ρ relaxation times and myocardial fibrosis index were quantified for each slice and each myocardial segment,the difference in T1ρ of different spin-locking frequencies and myocardial fibrosis index was analyzed using one-way repeated-measures analysis of variance method.Results T1ρ of 5 Hz,300 Hz,400 Hz,and 500 Hz were(33.9±2.8)ms,(43.4±2.1)ms,(45.4±2.6)ms and(46.5±2.4)ms,respectively;and T1ρ values showed a significant progressive increase from the low spin-lock frequency to the high spin-lock frequency of the heart(300 Hz vs.400 Hz:P<0.001;300 Hz vs.500 Hz:P<0.001;400 Hz vs.500 Hz:P=0.043).In addition,the measured myocardial fibrosis index at 300 Hz,400 Hz and 500 Hz were(9.4±2.2)ms,(11.3±2.9)ms and(12.6±2.7)ms,respectively.Statistical analysis underscored significant variations among these measurements(300 Hz vs.400 Hz:P<0.001;300 Hz vs.500 Hz:P<0.001;400 Hz vs.500 Hz:P=0.033).Conclusion In this prospective study,myocardial T1ρ values for the specific cardiac magnetic resonance setting are provided,and we found that spin-lock frequency can affect the T1ρ values.

Objective:To explore the association between cardiovascular health behaviors and hyperuricemia (HUA) among community residents of different age groups.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. A total of 2 138 community residents aged (47.1±11.6) years with 1 012 males (47.3%) were selected by cluster sampling method as study subjects in Taiyuan Nanzhai Community from March to November 2020. There were 104 cases aged 8-18 years (underage group), 868 cases aged 19-44 years (youth group), 625 cases aged 45-59 years (middle-aged group), 375 cases aged 60-74 years (young elderly group), and 166 cases aged≥75 years (elderly group). Blood uric acid was measured and>420 μmol/L was defined as HUA, there were 385 cases with high uric acid level (HUA group) and 1 753 cases with normal uric acid levels (control group). The general information was collected by questionnaires, and general ergonomic indicators were measured on-site by medical personnel. The cardiovascular health behaviors included smoking, exercise, diet, and sleep in study subjects were documented. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the related factors of HUA.Results:Among 2 138 participants, 1 161 (54.3%) had never smoked (up to standard), and the order of proportion of non-smokers from high to low was underage group, elderly group, young elderly group, young group and middle-aged group ( P<0.001); 486(22.7%) people met the dietary standards, and the order of proportion of meeting the dietary standards from high to low was underage group, elderly group, young elderly group, middle-aged group, and young group ( P<0.001); 554(25.9%) people achieved physical fitness standards, and the order of the proportion of achieving physical fitness standards from high to low was young elderly group, middle-aged group, elderly group, underage group, and young group ( P<0.001); 783 (36.6%) people met the sleep standards, and the order of proportion meeting the sleep standards from high to low was underage group, youth group, middle-aged group, young elderly group, and elderly group ( P<0.001). Among the participants, only 39 (1.8%) met the standards for all 4 types of behaviors; 485 (22.7%), 1 229 (57.5%), and 424 (19.8%) had low, medium, and high total scores for ideal cardiovascular health behaviors, respectively. The total score of ideal cardiovascular health behaviors ranked from high to low was elderly group, young elderly group, underage group, middle-aged group, and young group ( P<0.001). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that body mass index (BMI) ( OR=1.125, 95% CI: 1.086-1.165) was positively correlated with HUA, while female ( OR=0.241, 95% CI: 0.182-0.320), total score of cardiovascular health behaviors (compared to lower level, intermediate level: OR=0.186, 95% CI: 0.127-0.273, high level: OR=0.038, 95% CI: 0.020-0.072), and number of achieved healthy behavior items ( OR=0.757, 95% CI: 0.621-0.922) were negatively correlated with HUA. Conclusions:The underage group has the highest number of people who meet the smoking, dietary, and sleep standards, the young and elderly group has the highest number of people who meet the exercise standards, and the elderly group has the highest total score for ideal cardiovascular health behaviors. There is a positive correlation between BMI and HUA, while there is a negative correlation of HUA with female, the total score and number of achieved items of cardiovascular health behaviors.

Objective:To explore the antibacterial performance and mechanism of reticulated cruciform DNA nanomachines mimicking neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs).Methods:In this study, a cross-shaped DNA nanostructure was synthesized using the one-step method to form a network under the polymerization of magnesium ions. The network was used as a template for inlaying reduced Cu 0 to form reticulated DNA-templated copper nanoclusters (CuNPs). The cruciform DNA formation process was characterized by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). The reticulated cruciform DNA nanomachine was characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). The optimal concentrations of Cu 2+, Mg 2+and DNA in the reticulated cruciform DNA nanomachine was determined by plate coating experiments. The antibacterial performance of the reticulated cruciform DNA nanomachine against Escherichia coli ( E. coli), Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae was verified by plate coating experiments. The aggregation effect of E. coli was evaluated by crystal violet staining, and the changes on the membrane surface of E. coli were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), in order to explore the antibacterial mechanism of the reticulated cruciform DNA nanomachine. Results:PAGE showed that the band migration distance of the four DNA strands was the smallest after co-incubation. AFM showed that the DNA structure was reticulated and evenly distributed, and the Cu, Mg, and P elements coexisted in the structure. The optimal concentrations of Cu 2+, Mg 2+, and DNA required for the synthesis of the reticulated cruciform DNA nanomachine were 1 mmol/L, 100 mmol/L, and 20 μmol/L, respectively. The reticulated cruciform DNA nanomachine had the ability to inhibit E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae, with survival rates of 39.72%, 43.56% and 60.57%, respectively. The reticulated cruciform DNA nanomachine had an aggregation effect on E. coli. The surface of the bacterial film exhibited shrinkage and fractures. Conclusion:The reticulated cruciform DNA nanomachine constructed in this study can aggregate E. coli, leading to the shrinkage and fracturing of the bacterial film, and exhibiting antibacterial effects.

【Objective】 To investigate the correlation of serum exosomal microRNA-301a (miR-301a) with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events after peritoneal dialysis in diabetic nephropathy. 【Methods】 A total of 211 patients with diabetic nephropathy treated with peritoneal dialysis from June 2019 to June 2020 in the First Hospital Affiliated of Hebei North University were selected as study subjects. Serum exosomal miR-301a was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The patients were divided into high miR-301a group and low miR-301a group based on the median of miR-301a; the clinical data of the two groups were compared. The correlation of miR-301a with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) was analyzed by Spearman. Linear regression was applied to analyze the factors associated with the effect of miR-301a. The patients were followed up for two years. Kaplan-Meier and Log-Rank were conducted to compare the cumulative incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events between the two groups, and COX regression and restricted cubic spline were used to analyze the level-effect relationship between miR-301a and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events after peritoneal dialysis. 【Results】 Thirty-seven cases (17.54%) of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events occurred during follow-up. The hs-CRP level and dialysis duration were lower in low miR-301a group than in high miR-301a group (P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between miR-301a and hs-CRP (rs=0.237, P=0.001). Linear regression analysis showed that hs-CRP was independently associated with miR-301a (P<0.05). The cumulative cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event rate in low miR-301a group was 3.70% (4/108), which was lower than that in high miR-301a group [32.04% (33/103), P<0.001]. COX regression analysis showed that high serum albumin level was an independent protective factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events after peritoneal dialysis in diabetic nephropathy,while high hs-CRP level and miR-301a >1.46 were independent risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events after peritoneal dialysis in diabetic nephropathy. Restricted cubic spline fitting COX regression analysis showed a non-linear relationship between miR-301a and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events after peritoneal dialysis in diabetic nephropathy (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 hs-CRP is independently associated with miR-301a in diabetic nephropathy peritoneal dialysis patients. High miR-301a level suggests a high risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events after peritoneal dialysis in diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To compare the difference in recurrence rates between the endovenous laser therapy(EVLT) combined with percutaneous continuous circumsature (PCCS) and simplex EVLT following the treatment of great saphanous vein incompetence through the introduction of propensity score matching (PSM).Methods T the baseline data of 170 patients diagnosed with great saphanous vein incompetence who were treated in Punan Hospital in Pudong New District of Shanghai from 2009 to 2014 were retrospectively analyzed,of which underwent EVLT were 87 cases as EVLT group and EVLT combined with PCCS were 83 cases as EVLT +PCCS group.The groups covariate were balanced based on the PSM function of SPSS software using 1 ∶ 1 nearest neighbor matching method.The recurrence rates of the two groups were estimated by Kaplan-Meier method and the differences between the two groups were evaluated by Log-rank test.Results Sixty-seven pairs of patients were successfully matched.No significant difference between the two matched groups in the basic clinical features.Before PSM,the 1,2,and 3 year cummulative recurrence rates were 3.5％,5.4％ and 7.3％ in the EVLT group,and 0.9％,4.7％ and 4.7％ in the EVLT+PCCS group,respectively,there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups by Log-rank test (P =0.491).After PSM,the 1,2,and 3 year cummulative recurrence rates were 5.2％,5.2％ and 7.1％ in the EVLT group,and 0％,1.0％ and 1.0％ in the EVLT+PCCS group,there were statistically significant differences between the two groups (P =0.031).Conclusion The PSM methods can effectively balanced the covariates of groups in non-randomised study.EVLT combined with PCCS can effectively reduce the recurrence rate after the treatment of great saphanous vein incompetence.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the prognosis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1 (CIN1) at different follow-up time points in Chinese women and the relationship with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection.

METHODSBiopsy-confirmed CIN1 women were followed up from cervical cancer screening cohorts established during 1999 to 2008 in Xiangyuan county, Yangcheng county, Qinxian county and Wuxiang county, Shanxi Province.In each follow-up visit, participants were examined by visual inspection with acetic acid, liquid-based cytology and HR-HPV DNA testing. Those with any positive results received colposcope and biopsies. The cumulative incidence rates of CIN grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) and CIN grade 3 or worse (CIN3+), regression rates and persistent rates were calculated using pathological findings as a gold standard. The risks of progression related with HR-HPV were evaluated stratified by baseline and follow-up HR-HPV status.

RESULTSA total of 228, 224, 261 and 105 CIN1 women received the 1-year, 2-year, 6-year and 11-year follow-up exams, respectively. The cumulative incidence rate of CIN2+ among baseline HR-HPV positive women was 4.8% (6/126), 10.7% (16/150), 16.9% (29/172) and 35% (19/55) in the above follow-up visits, respectively, and their risk of progression was 2.7(95%CI:0.3-22.0), 2.9 (95%CI:0.7-12.1), 12.0 (95%CI:1.7-86.2) and 30.6 (95%CI:1.9-493.5) times higher than baseline HR-HPV negative women. Moreover, the cumulative incidence of CIN2+ among women with positive HR-HPV both at baseline and follow-up visit was 11% (6/55), 14% (6/42), 17% (10/60) and 50% (13/26) in the above follow-up visits, respectively.No new CIN2+ cases were found among those with negative HR-HPV both at baseline and follow-up visits.

CONCLUSIONGiven that CIN1 progression is related to HR-HPV infection, different follow-up intervals and strategies for CIN1 should be taken according to HR-HPV infection status.
