Objective To discuss the clinicopathological features and prognostic factors of patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) in Shanxi province. Methods The medical records of 958 female TNBC patients who were admitted to Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital and the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from January 2005 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinicopathological features and prognostic factors were summarized. Results The median age of TNBC patients in Shanxi province was 46 years old (21-87 years old), the median body mass index (BMI) was 24.42 kg/m2 (15.0-37.5 kg/m2), and the rural population was slightly more. The left breast cancer was more than the right breast cancer, and 492 patients (51.4%) were in stage T2. The main histological type was invasive ductal carcinoma. The main surgical method was modified radical mastectomy. Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that the patient's place of residence, fertility status, age at first birth, breastfeeding history, tumor size, American Joint Committee on Cancer Staging, lymph node metastasis, and surgical approach were associated with the risk of death in TNBC patients (all P<0.05);but the BMI, menstrual status, menarche age, and family history were not associated with the risk of death (all P>0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that rural residents (HR= 1.46, P= 0.044), positive lymph node metastasis (HR= 2.51, P< 0.01), non-fertility (HR=1.08, P= 0.009) and no surgery (HR= 2.53, P= 0.004) were independent risk factors affecting the risk of death, a history of breastfeeding was a protective factor affecting the risk of death in TNBC patients (HR=0.44, P=0.013). Conclusions In Shanxi province, TNBC is more common in premenopausal women and the main pathological type is invasive ductal carcinoma. Rural population, lymph node positive, non-fertility, and no surgical treatment are independent risk factors for the prognosis of TNBC patients.

The innovation of integrating medical treatment and prevention mechanisms is a key task deployed by the government, aiming to promote the construction of a Healthy China and address the prevalent "treatment over prevention" mindset in healthcare services and society. Vaccination is an effective strategy for preventing and controlling infectious diseases; however, adult vaccination rates in China remain low due to insufficient awareness and enthusiasm among the public and healthcare professionals. In recent years, various regions have begun to explore the model of physicians in medical institutions prescribing vaccines to improve vaccination rates. This article analyzes the positioning, current implementation status, and challenges of vaccine prescriptions, and proposes recommendations advocating policy formulation, improving service models and supporting measures, improving funding mechanisms, and strengthening publicity and education to promote the widespread implementation and effectiveness of vaccine prescriptions.
