OBJECTIVETo conduct a survival analysis of gastric cancer patients according to the data of population-based cancer registry during 2005-2010 in Zhejiang Province in order to provide information for prognosis assessment and control of this disease.
METHODSThe deadline of the last follow-up of 26, 536 patients was December 31st, 2012. Cumulative observed survival rate (OSR) and expected survival rate were calculated by life table and Hakulinen method.
RESULTSthe 1-, 3-, and 5-year OSR were 58.51%, 39.07%, and 33.08%, and the 1-, 3-, and 5-year relative survival rates (RSR) were 60.24%, 42.90%, and 39.03%, respectively. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year relative survival rates of males vs. females were 60.49% vs. 59.65%, 42.88% vs. 42.96%, and 38.76% vs. 39.64%, respectively, statistically with non-significant differences (χ(2) = 0.13, P > 0.05) between them. The 5-year OSR and RSR of urban patients were 39.15% and 46.30%, and the 5-year OSR and RSR of rural patients were 30.81% and 36.32%, with statistically significant differences between them (P < 0.05). The 15-44 age group had a better relative survival rate.
CONCLUSIONSThe survival rate of gastric cancer patients in Zhejiang Province is low. Work of cancer prevention and control should be strengthened. The wide variation in gastric cancer survival rates between urban and rural patients indicates that priority should be given to rural areas in allocating medical and public health resources.

Objective :
To optimize the primary prevention strategies of birth defects in Zhejiang Province by Delphi method, so as to promote the capacity of birth defects prevention.
Methods:
The expert consultation questionnaire was developed based on the relevant policies of Zhejiang Province and literature. Ten experts from medical institutions and health administrative departments were employed for one round Delphi expert consultation. The weighted scores and priorities of ten measures for the primary prevention of birth defects in Zhejiang Province were determined, as well as the suggestions of optimizing the current policies.
Results :
The response rate of the experts was 90.91%; the coefficient of authority was 0.92; the coefficients of variation of ten measures were all less than 0.25; the coefficient of coordination was 0.31 ( P<0.05 ) , which indicated the opinions of the experts tended to be consistent. In the order of priority, ten primary prevention measures of birth defects were the improvement of birth defects surveillance network ( province, city and county level ) , the training of birth defects prevention talents, the construction of genetic consultation clinics, health education and publicity, the reproduction outpatient service construction for older people, free premarital medical examination, free pre-pregnancy eugenics test, the construction of drug consultation clinics, career planning and training of birth defect prevention and control consultants and free folic acid supplement to the whole population. Nine experts suggested that the following policies need to be optimized: birth defects surveillance system, free premarital medical examination, and health education and publicity.
Conclusion
In the primary prevention of birth defects in Zhejiang Province, the most urgent problem to be solved is the improvement of the three-level birth defects surveillance network.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor(PR) and the formation of endometrial polyps and the increased malignant rate of postmenopausal endometrial polyps.Methods:From January 2018 to January 2019, a total of 160 postmenopausal women treated in the People's Hospital of Changxing County were selected and divided into endometrial polyps group(83 cases) and oothectomy group(42 cases), normal menopause group(35 cases) according to different diseases.The levels of COX-2, ER, PR in the three groups were measured.The expression of COX-2 in mesenchymal cells and glandular epithelial cells, the expression of ER in mesenchymal cells and glandular epithelial cells, the expression of PR in mesenchymal cells and glandular epithelial cells in the three groups were compared, and the correlation between COX-2, ER, PR and increased malignant rate of endometrial polyps was analyzed.Results:The positive expression rates of COX-2 in mesenchymal cells and glandular epithelial cells in the endometrial polyps group(16.9%, 30.1%) were higher than those in the normal menopause group(0.0%, 11.4%) and the oothectomy group(4.8%, 7.1%)(χ 2=4.568, 5.806, all P<0.05 ). There were no statistically significant differences in the expression of ER in mesenchymal cells and glandular epithelial cells among the three groups(χ 2=1.333, 1.412, all P>0.05). The expression of PR in mesenchymal cells and glandular epithelial cells in the endometrial polyps group was lower than that in the normal menopause group and the oothectomy group(χ 2=4.890, 5.022, all P<0.05). COX-2 was positively correlated with the increase in malignant rate of endometrial polyps( r=4.335, P<0.05), PR was negatively correlated with an increase in the malignant rate of endometrial polyps( r=-4.256, P<0.05), and ER had no significant correlation with an increase in the malignant rate of endometrial polyps( r=1.203, P>0.05). Conclusion:COX-2 and PR are significantly related to the formation of endometrial polyps and the increase in malignant rate of postmenopausal endometrial polyps, but there is no significant expression of ER.Therefore, the detection of COX-2 and PR levels is beneficial to provide a certain scientific basis for clinical treatment.

OBJECTIVETo survey the incidence of acute coronary events (nonfatal acute myocardial infarction and death from coronary heart disease), and analyze the trend and distribution characteristics in permanent residents aged 25 years and more across 30 surveillance regions of Zhejiang province from 2010 to 2012.
METHODSThrough databases matching and duplicate checking, this study incorporated the register module of coronary disease and the cause of death register module in Zhejiang provincial information system for chronic non-communicable diseases surveillance and management. The distribution of incidence was calculated across gender, age groups, regions and times.
RESULTSA total of 31 872 person-time acute coronary events were identified. The gender- and age-standardized mean annual incidence was 81.56 per 100 000 people in overall population, with 94.33 in males and 68.27 in females. Age-standardized incidence was 87.90 and 77.36 per 100 000 people in urban and rural area, respectively. Urban area had higher incidence rate than rural in each of the three years, and had obvious trend of increasing (P < 0.001) compared with rural area (P = 0.331). Incidence rate also increased significantly with age (P < 0.001).In addition, compared with women, men had higher incidence in each age group (all P < 0.001). The incidence rate increased rapidly in population older than 75 years old. The highest incidence was observed in age group ≥ 85 years old, with 2 371.67 and 1 873.92 per 100 000 in males and females, respectively. Apparent seasonal trend was observed for acute coronary events, which was low in summer and high in winter.
CONCLUSIONSQuantity and incidence for acute coronary events in residents aged 25 years and more of Zhejiang surveillance regions increased during 2010 to 2012. Male had higher incidence than female, and the incidence in urban areas was higher compared with rural areas. Residents older than 75 years old were high risk population of events, and winter was the high-occurrence season.
