Objective To investigate HPV vaccine hesitancy and influencing factors among parents of primary and secondary schools in Guangyuan, and to provide scientific countermeasures for reducing the hesitancy rate of HPV vaccine in parents. Methods Using stratified multi-stage cluster random sampling, 1,018 parents of girls in primary and secondary schools in Guangyuan were selected for a questionnaire survey from March to July 2021. The data were analyzed by Chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression model. Results The hesitancy rate of HPV vaccine in parents was 42.95%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that families with low economic income, parents who believed that HPV vaccination would have long-term side effects, and be unsafe and expensive, and parents who concerned with the effect of HPV vaccine on the prevention of cervical cancer and insufficient supply of first doses of vaccine, had positive effects on HPV vaccine hesitancy (OR = 2.02, 1.44, 3.13, 1.53, 3.76, and 2.43, respectively, P < 0.05). Conclusion HPV vaccine hesitancy rate is high among parents of primary and secondary schools in Guangyuan. It is necessary to fully promote school education and increase the publicity of HPV vaccine to improve parents' awareness of HPV vaccine. Government departments need to make an overall plan to reduce vaccine costs and ensure sufficient vaccine quantity, so as to reduce parents' hesitation to vaccinate their children with HPV vaccine.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the relationship of group B (GBS) colonization in late pregnancy with perinatal outcome.
METHODS:
Pregnant women who underwent antenatal check-up at General Hospital of PLA Eastern Theater Command and the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2016 to December 2018 were enrolled in the study. The vaginal and rectal swab samples were collected for GBS culture at 35-37 weeks of pregnancy. The perinatal outcomes of positive and negative GBS groups were compared. The GBS-positive group samples were tested for antibiotic susceptibility. In GBS positive group the maternal and child perinatal outcomes were compared between pregnant women with antibiotics treatment and those without antibiotics.
RESULTS:
A total of 13 000 pregnant women were enrolled, and the overall colonization rate of GBS was 3.65%(475/13 000). The colonization rate of GBS in the vagina was 2.33%(303/13 000), and the colonization rate in the rectum was 1.75%(227/13 000). Through the collection and detection of rectal specimens, the positive rate of GBS increased by 56.77%(172/303). The monthly colonization rate of GBS showed significant fluctuations with the highest in March and October (all < 0.05). The sensitivity of 475 GBS-positive specimens to ceftriaxone, vancomycin and linezolid were 100%, and the sensitivity to ampicillin and penicillin were 97.26%and 93.47%, respectively. The resistance rates of the strains to levofloxacin, clindamycin, erythromycin and tetracycline were 30.11%, 48.00%, 52.21%and 88.63%. The incidence of premature rupture of membranes, postpartum hemorrhage, puerperal infection, neonatal pneumonia and sepsis in GBS positive group were significantly higher than those in GBS negative group (all < 0.01). In pregnant women with positive GBS, the incidence of puerperal infection, neonatal infection and admission to the NICU in the antibiotic group were significantly lower than those in the non-antibiotic group ( < 0.05 or < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONS
The total colonization rate of GBS is low. The detection of GBS can be significantly improved by supplementing rectal examination. Ceftriaxone, ampicillin and penicillin are currently the drugs of choice for the prevention and treatment of GBS-related diseases. GBS infection can increase the incidence of maternal and child complications. The use of antibiotics during labor can improve the outcome of mothers and infants.

Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic wedge resection for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors ( GIST ) . Methods One hundred GIST patients treated in our department between 2010 and 2014 were retrospectively enrolled, and their clinicopathological data were reviewed. Fifty patients underwent laparoscopic wedge resection, and open surgery cases were 1 ∶ 1 matched by tumor diameter. The clinicopathological characteristics, perioperative related factors, postoperative nutritional status and short?term outcome were compared between the two groups. Results Among the clinicopathological characteristics, only the age was of statistical significance (61.58±10.43 vs. 56.40±9.82, P=0.012) . Over fifty percent of the tumors occurred in the gastric body. Although the short?term survival did not show statistical significance, the laparoscopic group showed predominant advantages in estimated blood loss [(48.60±48.89) ml vs. (137.60±140.69) ml, P<0.001], average hospital stay[ (12.14±4.32) d vs.(17.22±7.11) d, P<0.001], oral intake time[ (3.76±1.73)d vs. (6.28±3.73)d, P<0.01], decline of prealbumin [(0.07±0.04)g/L vs. (0.11±0.05)g/L, P<0.001)], decline of transferrin [(0.51±0.29)g/L vs. (0.64±0.30) g/L, P=0.034] and complication (2.0% vs. 14.0%, P=0.027). Conclusion Laparoscopic wedge resection is feasible and safe for GIST surgery, allows a rapid recovery and having a better nutritional status in patients, and is a less invasive approach for patients.

PurposeTraumatic pancreatitis which has a high mortality rate is likely to be misdiagnosed. This study aims to analyze the clinical manifestations and CT findings of traumatic pancreatitis, so as to improve its early diagnosis and treatment.Materials and Methods The clinical manifestations and CT images of 25 patients with traumatic pancreatitis confirmed by operation or post-treatment review were analyzed retrospectively. Pancreatic injuries were classified as superficial lesions (with the depth of trauma less than 50% of the thickness of pancreas) and deep lesions (with the depth of trauma more than 50% of the thickness of pancreas). The clinical manifestations, CT findings and the complicated organ injuries in these two types of pancreatic trauma were analyzed.Results Eight patients had superficial lesions, and 17 patients were with deep lesions. Nine patients had complicated organ injuries. Patients with deep lesions showed a more severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, rebound tenderness and muscular tension than those patients with superficial lesions. The serum amylases increased in all the patients. Pancreatic-relevant complications including pancreas pseudocyst, pancreatic fluid leakage and peritonitis occurred in 7 patients who accepted a delayed operation. Three out of 8 patients with superficial pancreatic injuries were missed on plain CT scan in the first time. Among 17 patients with deep pancreatic trauma, 12 had incomplete laceration, 5 had complete laceration, and 1 was missed in the first time. The direct CT features of pancreatic trauma were focal abnormal attenuation and/or discontinuity in pancreatic parenchyma.Conclusion The clinical manifestations of patients with traumatic pancreatitis are complicated. The direct CT features of pancreatic trauma include heterogeneous density of pancreatic parenchyma and/or interruption. Trauma's depth is closely related to the main injury of pancreatic duct. It is worth to be aware of the indirect signs such as peripancreatic oozy and other viscera damages.
