Background and purpose:Several prior studies have evaluated that the overall incidence of cervical cancer has decreased in the past 30 years, while it seems that the age of mortality is younger, especially young women under 35 years old. The prognosis of cervical cancer in young women still needs to be determined. The purpose of this study was to determine the main clinicopathologic characteristics of cervical cancer in young women aged under 35 years and the influence of age on prognosis. Methods:A retrospective review was performed for 831 patients under 35 years old , 1 737 cases over 35 years old was used as a control group. Clinical and pathologic variables including clinical stage, pathological type, tumor size, lymph node metastases(LNM),depth of invasion(DI) and lymphovascular space involvement (LVSI)were analyzed using Peason chi-squowe test. The 5-year survival and 2-year recurrence rates were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method.Results:The younger patients were characterized by a higher rate of early stage with 64% vs 37.8% in control group(P=0.000),non-squamous cell carcinoma were 14.90% in the study group and 6.80% in the control group(P=0.000),bulky lesion were 52.00% vs 30.44%(P=0.000), LNM were 33.46% vs 23.93% (P=0.000),deep stroma invasion(DSI) were 51.88% vs 39.94% (P=0.005),There was no significant difference in LVSI for two groups with 37.03% in the young group and 38.26% in the control group (P=0.663).The clinical stage and tumor size of young patients were related with LNM,DI and LVSI(P

Objective To investigate the effects of ramipril on nitric oxide(NO) concentration and endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS) activation in lung of rats with pulmonary arterial hypertension induced by monocrotaline(MCT).Methods Sixty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups: normal control group,MCT group and ramipril group.Rats in MCT group and ramipril group were subcutaneously injected with 60mg/kg of MCT.Then the rats in ramipril group received ramipril gavage and rats in MCT group received normal saline gavage for 4 weeks,respectively.Rats in control group were subcutaneously injected with normal saline first and then received normal saline gavage for 4 weeks.Right ventricular systolic pressure(RVSP) and right ventricle hypertrophy index(RVHI) were measured.The ratio of arteriol wall thickness/vascular external diameter(WT%) and wall area percentage(WA%) were evaluated.NO concentration in lung was determined.eNOS,P-Ser1177-eNOS and Akt phosphorylation were analyzed by Western blotting.Results The RVSP,RVHI,WT%,WA% were significantly increased,and NO concentration,the level of eNOS,P-Ser1177-eNOS,the state of Akt phosphorylation were significantly decreased in MCT group compared with that in control group(P

Objective To examine the impact of case management on hospitalizations of the chronically and severely mentally ill patients in Zhongshan. Methods Patients with severe and chronic mental illness,aged ≥ 15 years and living in pilot area were divided into two groups naturally since the program of case management launched, 65 cases in the group of case management and 112 patients in the group of standard management. Hospitalizations of the two groups before and after case management were compared. Results Data were analysised with MIXED procedure. Length of stay in days per admission (LOS) of both groups decreased with time in years (F=11.02, P=0.001), and the decline in LOS of case management group was greater than that of standard management group (F=9.02, P=0.003). The average admissions of case management group was more than that of standard management group (F=4.98,P=0.03). There was no significant differences in average hospitalization incidents before and after case management in both groups(case management group 5.13%vs. 5.38%, standard management group 7.14%vs. 8.92%, P>0.05). Conclusions Case management was effective in reducing hospitalizations for a group of Chinese with chronic and severe mental illness, and may contribute to the balance on mental health resources between community and hospital.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy, quality of life, safety, and medical expense of second-line treatment with ametinib versus first-line treatment with oxitinib in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. Methods:This is a prospective clinical research study. A total of 72 patients with NSCLC who received second-line treatment with ametinib at the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from July 2020 to April 2022 were included in the amitinib group. Sixty-six patients with advanced NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations who underwent first-line treatment with ositinib were included in the ositinib group (one patient dropped out of the study, and sixty-five patients were included in the final analysis). There was no statistically significant difference in general information between the two groups. The ositinib group received ositinib treatment, while the amitinib group received amitinib treatment. After three courses of treatment, the short-term effectiveness was evaluated in both groups. The quality of life was compared before and after three courses of treatment in each group. Adverse reactions and average per-day hospital cost were compared between the two groups.Results:The disease control rate in the amitinib and oxitinib groups were 91.67% (66/72) and 90.77% (59/65), respectively, while the overall response rate was 43.06% (31/72) and 41.54% (27/65), respectively. The disease control rate and overall response rate did not differ significantly between the two groups (both P > 0.05). After treatment, the scores for physical well-being [(21.05 ± 4.18) points vs. (19.16 ± 3.95) points, t = 4.05], social/family well-being [(19.38 ± 2.65) points vs. (17.26 ± 2.28) points, t = 3.11], emotional well-being [(18.83 ± 3.07) points vs. (17.00 ± 2.86) points, t = 3.20], functional well-being [(22.02 ± 3.83) points vs. (20.14 ± 2.98) points, t = 3.83], and additional attention [(26.11 ± 5.00) points vs. (24.33 ± 4.30) points, t = 3.05] in the amitinib group were significantly higher than those in the oxitinib group (all P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in incidence rate of grade 3-4 adverse reactions between amitinib and oxitinib groups [6.94% (5/72) vs. 10.77% (7/65), P > 0.05]. Average per-day hospital cost in the amitinib group was significantly lower than that in the oxitinib group ( t = 4.83, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Second-line treatment with ametinib for advanced NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations can significantly enhance the quality of life and offer comparable short-term efficacy and safety to first-line treatment with oxitinib. Advantageously, its medical cost is relatively lower.

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis and prognosis of one patient with carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma (CXPA)composed of three malignant components in parotid gland,and to raise the clinicians'awareness of the disease.Methods:A patient was presented to hospital because of the mass in left parotid gland region for more than 30 years and the accompanied pain lasted for one month.After color ultrasonography,the left parotid gland tumor resection was performed. Results: The operation was successful. The postoperative pathological diagnosis results comfirmed as CXPA,it was composed of three malignant components,including non-specific adenocarcinoma,ductal carcinoma,and myoepithelial carcinoma.Conclusion:CXPA composed of three malignant components at the same time are extremely rare.CXPA is difficult to diagnose and its prognosis is poor.The clinicians are supposed to improve the understanding of CXPA.

Objective:To investigate the method of arthroplasty for reconstructing femporomandibular joint (TMJ) after the establishment of TMJ articular defect models in the rabbits,and to clarify the replacement and repair effects of carboh fiber reinforced polyetheretherketone (CFR-PEEK) material TMJ prostheses,and to provide an experimental basis for the clinical application of CFR-PEEK artificial joints to replace TMJ.Methods:Thirteen healthy adult Japanese rabbits were randomly divided into experimental group (n=6),positive control group (n=4) and negative control group (n =3).The right TMJ articular process of the rabbits in experimental group were resected to establish the joint defect models,and then the CFR-PEEK artificial joints were impanted.The right TMJ articular process of the rabbits in positive control group were resected,and the joint defect models were established without the CFR-PEEK artificial joint implantation.The rabbits in negative control group didn't receive any treatment.The body weights of the rabbits in each group were measured in 13 weeks.The effects of fixation and replacement after artificial joint implantation were assessed by CT imaging.Results:The TMJ articular process defect model was successfully implanted with the CFR-PEEK artificial joint.The CT imaging results after threedimensional reconstruction and CT images by contrast in vitro showed that the CFR-PEEK-implanted artificial joint was fixed well,it could be instead of the normal joint function.Compared with positive control group,the weights of rabbits in experimental group were significantly increased (P＜ 0.05) at 13 weeks;compared with positive control group,the weights of rabbits in experimental group and negative control group were both significantly increased (P＞0.05) at 13 weeks,but there was no significant difference between them (P＞0.05).The weights of rabbits in experimental group and negative control group kept normal growth;the weights of rabbits in positive control group was increased slowly,and even stopped growing or was negative.Conclusion:The CFR-PEEK artificial joint can be successfully implanted into the TMJ defect model and be used to repair the defect which help to restore chewing function.The CFR-PEEK is expected to be an ideal material for reconstructing TMJ.
