To evaluate the influence of 3- and 5-megapixel medical professional monitors in detecting the micro-calcifications on high- and low-resolution breast images, we performed a retrospective study in low- (n = 100) and high-resolution (n = 100) data, including 40 micro-calcification patients in a group and 60 normal ones in control group respectively. Two doctors, one junior, and the other senior, reviewed all the images without knowing the clinical data and histology, and their observations of each image with different monitors were calculated. The areas under the ROC curves (Az) were compared. Finally, the interpretation consistency of the two doctors was assessed using Kappa analysis. In the low resolution data group, the two doctors' detection performance of breast micro-calcifications were very similar in the 3M and 5M medical professional monitors (P = 0.451 and 0.559). In the high resolution group, however, the senior doctor's recognition rate on the 5M monitor was significantly higher than that on the 3M (P = 0.022), while the junior's recognition rate had no significant difference (P = 0.141) between the two readings. The two doctors' interpretation consistency on 5M monitor was better than that on 3M monitor. For the high-resolution images on the 5M monitor, the interpretation of the two doctors had extremely great consistency (K = 0.862). Therefore, different breast images of different resolutions should match corresponding resolution monitor. Interpretation of high-resolution images with 5M monitor has more advantages in the micro-calcification detection for senior doctors.

Objective To investigate the effects of skin/muscle incision and retraction(SMIR)on mechanical paw withdrawal threshold and the ability of spatial learning and memory in immature rats after adulthood. Methods 27 male SD rats aged 3 weeks and weighing 60 ~ 80 g were randomly divided into 3 groups(n = 9):control group(group C),sham operation group(group Sham)and skin/muscle incision and retraction group (group SMIR). Group SMIR received operation for skin/muscle incision and retraction. Sham group received skin/muscle incision but no retraction.No surgery was operated on C group. Pain behavior was assessed by mechanical paw withdrawal threshold(MWT)to von Frey filament stimulation before and 1,3,7,12,22 and 32 days after operation.The effects of spatial learning and memory function were assessed by Morris water-maze test at 33 days after operation. Results Mechanical paw withdrawal threshold of group SMIR decreased 1 day after operation (P<0.05)and showed no significant difference before and 3,7,12,22,32 days after operation in 3 groups(P >0.05). In Morris water-maze test,compared with Sham and C group,the average escape latency in SMIR was sig-nificantly longer in the water maze navigation experiment(P < 0.01);the ratios of time and path in the quadrant of the platform were obviously lower in SMIR(P < 0.01). There was no statistical difference between sham and C group(P>0.05).Conclusion SMIR did not cause chronic pain but may cause a decrease in the ability of spatial learning and memory in immature rats.

Objective:Constructing a physical fitness test index system for pregnant women to fully understand their physical fitness level and provide a reference for exercise prescription for this population.Methods:The system was established by way of literature review and Delphi survey, which was further validated on 60 pregnant women undergoing prenatal examination at Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Beijing Haidian District from November 7, 2019, to January 7, 2020. A questionnaire was used to evaluate the satisfaction of pregnant women with the process and results of the physical fitness test. The test and survey data adopted the descriptive analysis. Paired sample t test was used for statistical analysis. Results:The index system of maternal physical fitness test during pregnancy was established through three rounds of expert discussion, and consists of three first-level indexes, 11 second-level indexes, and 23 third-level indexes. All 60 subjects completed the test successfully and no complaints or discomfort were reported. There was no significant difference in the fetal heart rate before and after the test [(142.1±3.8) vs (142.1±4.5) bpm; t=-0.025, P=0.980]. The average test duration was (32.6±3.4) min, and the average load consumption was (300.1±41.2) kcal (1 kcal=4.184 kJ). The questionnaire showed that all subjects were satisfied with the test process and results. Conclusions:The index system of physical fitness test for pregnant women established in this study is scientific, practical, and safe, which is a potential evaluation tool of the physical fitness level for pregnant women.

Objective:To understand the status of menopause outpatient clinics in maternal and children health (MCH) institutions and general hospitals.Methods:A total of 314 health administrative departments, MCH health institutions and general hospitals in 11 provinces of China were enrolled by using multi-stage random sampling method. A self-made questionnaire was used to investigate the development of normative documents for menopausal health work, and the establishment, services, health resources, system and information management of menopause outpatient clinics. The current situation of menopause outpatient clinics in MCH institutions was compared with that in general hospitals.Results:All health administrative departments did not formulate normative documents for menopausal health care. Among MCH health institutions and general hospitals, 53.4% (111/208) established menopause outpatient clinic. About 60.9% (64/105) of MCH institutions established menopause outpatient clinic, which was higher than that of general hospitals [45.6% (47/103)] ( P<0.05). From high priority to less, the services of menopause outpatient clinics were menopausal disease diagnosis and treatment, counseling, health education and disease referral. 90.1% (100/111) of menopause outpatient clinics provided routine medical examinations, and only 55.9% (62/111) and 59.5% (66/111) of them provide psychological and nutritional status assessment. The allocation rate of commonly used examination equipment in menopause outpatient clinics was 81.1%-96.4%, while only 28.8%-37.8% of them had psychological status assessment tool, human body composition analyzer and nutrition status assessment tool. Among 111 menopause outpatient clinics, 46.8% ( n=52), 36.0% ( n=40), and 34.2% ( n=38) of them established outpatient consultation process, referral (consultation) work system, and follow-up work system, and 49.5% ( n=55), 29.7% ( n=33), 42.3% ( n=47), and 17.1% ( n=19) of them established visit registration, health records, follow-up records of referrals, and reported outpatient services, respectively. Conclusion:Menopause outpatient clinics in 11 provinces of China have been initially established, and policy guidance and human resources allocation should be further strengthened.

Objective:Exploring the effect of radiofrequency ablation treatment to restore sinus rhythm on the improvement of functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) and cardiac structure in patients with atrial fibrillation combined with moderate or severe FMR, compared with drug therapy alone.Methods:This retrospective cohort study consecutively enrolled patients diagnosed with persistent atrial fibrillation and moderate or severe FMR who were admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2019 to December 2021. Forty-eight patients who were treated with radiofrequency ablation and maintained sinus rhythm were enrolled in the ablation group, and 63 patients who were treated with medication alone during the same period were in the medicine group. Patients in the ablation group and medicine group were matched in a 1∶1 ratio using a propensity score, and 41 patients were finally included in each of the 2 groups. All patients reexamined echocardiography after 3-month of treatment. The proportion of patients with FMR improvement and the differences in changes of cardiac structural and functional parameters were compared between groups.Results:After propensity score matching, the ablation group was aged (69.3±7.1) years with 21 males (51.2%) and the medicine group was aged (71.3±9.4) years with 21 males (51.2%). The echocardiography after 3-month of treatment showed the rate of FMR improvement was significantly higher in the ablation group than in the medicine group (19 (46.3%) vs. 33 (80.5%), P<0.001), and patients in the ablation group showed a significant decrease in FMR extent (Δmitral regurgitation area: (-1.30±2.64) cm 2 vs. (-3.55±2.50) cm 2, P<0.001), left atrial size (Δleft atrial diameter: (-0.17±3.78) mm vs. (-2.46±4.01) mm, P=0.009) and E/e′ (ΔE/e′:-2.54±7.34 vs.-6.34±7.08, P=0.021) compared with the medicine group. There was also a significant decrease in left ventricular size (Δleft ventricular end diastolic diameter: (-3.12±6.62) mm vs. (-0.73±3.62) mm, P=0.046) and significant increase in left ventricular ejection fraction (Δleft ventricular ejection fraction: (2.73±9.69) % vs. (-0.93±5.41) %, P=0.038) in ablation group. Conclusion:Performing radiofrequency ablation to restore sinus rhythm can effectively reduce the severity of mitral regurgitation and improve left atrial and left ventricular remodeling and cardiac function in patients with atrial fibrillation and FMR.

Objective To analyze the reported data of national rural cervical cancer screening project from 2012 to 2013 and to evaluate the project implementation condition. Methods Data of the national breast carcinoma and cervical cancer (two-cancer) screening project for rural women were collected from the online report system of key women and children's public health service programs.The screening items included: preliminary screening of cervical lesions (cervical cytology, using Traian Bethesda System (TBS) or Pap grading for classification and reporting), acetate/iodide staining (VIA/VILI), colposcopy, histopathological examination, and pathological diagnosis. The study collected the quarterly reported data from 1 183 counties of 30 provinces in 2014 and 1 130 counties of 30 provinces in 2013. Chi-square test was used to test the difference of positive detection rate, as well as precancerous cervical lesions, and cervical cancer detection rates among difference preliminary screening methods in 2012 and 2013. Results In 2012 and 2013, the number of cervical cancer screening was 10 621 482 and 10 321 835. The percentage of using ThinPrep cytological test as the screening method was 77.17%(n=8 196 627) and 77.07%(n=7 954 949) in 2012 and 2013, respectively. Among these ThinPrep cytological tests in these two years, 65.49%(n=5 368 194) and 71.67% (n=5 701 033) used TBS report system. The abnormality rate of colposcopy increased from 27.29% (170 063/623 161) to 31.15% (203 397/652 935) (χ2=2 295.94, P<0.001). The abnormality rate of histopathology test increased from 19.54% (37 992/194 394) to 35.43% (59 004/166 518) (χ2=11 523.58,P<0.001). All together, 27 341 cervical cancer or precancerous lesions have been detected in these two years. The detection rate of invasive cervical cancer increased from 18.02/100 000 in 2012 to 19.71/100 000 (χ2=7.90, P=0.005) in 2013 and that of precancerous lesions rose from 106.85/100 000 to 119.26/100 000 (χ2=70.82, P<0.001). The early detection rate was 89.60% (11 883/13 263), and 89.57%(12 609/14 078), respectively in 2012 and 2013. In these two years, the rank of the detection rate of each cervical lesion were CIN1, CIN2, CIN3, invasive carcinoma, adenocarcinoma in situ, and microinvasive carcinoma, from the highest rate to the lowest rate. Conclusion The program has achieved certain screening effect and the screening method has been improved. However, the quality of colposcope and histopathology should be enhanced.
