This study examined the effect of silencing LRIG3 expression on the proliferation and apoptosis of bladder cancer T24 cells and explored the role of LRIG3 in the tumorigenesis of bladder cancer. Bladder cancer T24 cells were routinely cultured and pSilencer plasmids were employed to construct LRIG3 eukaryotic expression vector of LRIG3-siRNA, i.e., pSilencer-LRIG3-siRNA. After confirmation, the vector was transfected into HEK293 cells to make a replication-deficient adenovirus, pAd-LRIG3-siRNA, which was then introduced into bladder cancer T24 cells. RT-PCR, Western-blotting were performed to detect the levels of LRIG3 mRNA and proteins. Cells number was determined by using MTT test. Hoechst33258 staining, transmission microscopy, flow cytometery were conducted to examine the cell apoptosis. Three groups included a blank control group, a negative control group (containing non-interfering plasmids) and a pAd-LRIG3-siRNA group. Our results showed that the recombinant pAd-LRIG3-siRNA was successfully transfected into the bladder cancer T24 cells. The siRNA formed by the transcription of the recombinant plasmids resulted in significantly reduced expressions of LRIG3 gene and protein and significantly decreased cell proliferation and growth in the pAd-LRIG3-siRNA group as compared with the control group (P<0.01). The siRNA also caused apoptotic changes of some cells, with the apoptosis rate being (17.69±0.75)%, which was significantly different from that of the control group (P<0.01). It was concluded that recombinant pAd-LRIG3-siRNA plasmids could effectively decrease the expression of LRIG3 mRNA and proteins and, to some extent, inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of bladder cancer T24 cells. Silencing LRIG3 gene might be a novel alternative for the treatment of bladder cancer.

Objective To evaluate the effect of postural drainage assisting trachea suction on meconium aspiration syndrome. Methods Total 61 cases of asphyxia neonates with MAS who were born in our hospital from Jan,2007 to Dec,2008, were divided into control group (24 cases) and observing group( 37 cases). The neonates in control group had endotracheal suction directly after intubation. But the infant in observing group was treated with endotracheal suction after postural drainage. The amount of suction from endotracheal tube,the complication of MAS and the outcome of these newborns were evaluated. Results The total amount of meconium drainage from endotrachea in observing group was statistics significantly more than that in control group [( 2. 16 ± 1.82) ml vs ( 1.23 ± 0. 97 ) ml, P < 0. 05 )]; The intubating times in observing group were statistical significantly less than that in control group[( 1.19 ± 0. 46) vs ( 1.79 ± 0. 83 ) times, P <0. 01 ). The incidence of complication in observing group was 8. 11% ,which was significantly lower than that in control group(29. 17% ,P <0. 05). There were shorter needing oxygen time [(21.30 ± 22. 38) h vs (52. 91 ±39. 20) h,P <0. 01]and shorter hospitalization days [(9. 24 ±3.94) d vs ( 14. 39 ±6. 49) d,P <0.01 )]in observing group than those in control group respectively. The mortality in control group was 4. 17%, and no death occurred in observing group. Apgar scores of the first minute was similar in both groups ( P > 0. 05 ). But there was significant difference(70. 16% vs 58. 34% ,respectively;P <0. 05) in the fifth minute Apgar scoring of 8 ~ 10 scores between the observing group and the control group. Conclusion Postural drainage assisting endotracheal suction may remove meconium in trachea effectively, decrease the complications of MAS and shorten the oxygen days and hospitalization time.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of pancreatic fistula after radical resection of gastric cancer, and to establish a risk prediction scoring model for pancreatic fistula.Methods:The clinico-pathological data of 312 patients with gastric cancer admitted to the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2019 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Multiple factor logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors of pancreatic fistula after radical resection of gastric cancer, and a risk prediction scoring model based on the risk factors was established. Hosmer-Lemeshow test was used to detect the goodness of fit of regression equation, and receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the distinction degree of regression equation.Results:Among 312 patients with gastric cancer, 27 cases (8.65%) had pancreatic fistula after radical resection of gastric cancer. Multiple factor logistic regression analysis showed that male patients ( OR = 5.312, 95% CI 1.532-18.420, P = 0.008), age ≥ 60 years old ( OR = 4.928, 95% CI 1.493-16.250, P = 0.009), preoperative diabetes mellitus ( OR = 3.062, 95% CI 1.091-8.589, P = 0.034), lesion location in the gastric body-gastric antrum ( OR = 3.121, 95% CI 1.052-9.251, P = 0.040), intraoperative omental bursa resection ( OR = 6.209, 95% CI 2.084-18.478, P = 0.001), intraoperative lymph node dissection at D2+ station ( OR = 3.114, 95% CI 1.044-9.281, P = 0.042), intraoperative combined organ resection ( OR = 5.063, 95% CI 1.473-17.400, P = 0.010), preoperative TNM stage Ⅲ ( OR = 4.973, 95% CI 1.189-20.792, P = 0.028) were independent risk factors for pancreatic fistula after radical resection of gastric cancer. A risk prediction equation of pancreatic fistula after radical resection of patients with gastric cancer was established: P = -8.619+1.670X 1+1.595X 2+1.119X 3+1.138X 4+1.826X 5+1.136X 6+1.622X 7+1.604X 8; factor X was set as a binomial assignment (0 or 1); X1-X8 were listed as follows respectively: gender (the male was 1), age (≥60 years old was 1), preoperative diabetes history (yes was 1), lesion location (gastric body-gastric antrum was 1), intraoperative resection of omental bursa or not (yes was 1), intraoperative lymph node dissection at D2+ station or not (yes was 1), intraoperative combined organ resection or not (yes was 1), preoperative TNM stage (stage Ⅲ was 1). The goodness of fit of regression equation was high ( P = 0.395). The area under the curve of ROC by using risk prediction scoring model to judge pancreatic fistula was 0.916 (95% CI 0.872-0.960, P<0.01). The probability of pancreatic fistula in patients with score ≥ 5 was 40.90%, and the probability of pancreatic fistula in patients with score < 5 was 3.35%. Conclusions:The occurrence of pancreatic fistula after radical resection of gastric cancer is closely related to a variety of risk factors. By establishing a risk prediction scoring model for pancreatic fistula after radical resection of gastric cancer, it is helpful to effectively identify patients with high risk of pancreatic fistula after radical surgery during the perioperative period.

Purpose:
A cross-sectional survey was conducted to evaluate the differences on awareness and attitude towards human papillomavirus (HPV) and its vaccine between local and migrant residents who participated in cervical cancer screening in Shenzhen, China.
Materials and Methods:
A total of 9,855 females sampled from healthcare institutions in 20 street blocks through the Cervical Cancer Prevention Network were surveyed in this study by a self-administered questionnaire. Multivariate logistic regression was conducted to explore the role of the hukou and resident status in the willingness to receive HPV vaccination.
Results:
Local residents had a relatively higher awareness of HPV (62.0% vs. 35.6% vs. 29.9%, p < 0.001) and its vaccine (35.3% vs. 15.4% vs. 14.8%, p < 0.001), as well as a higher willingness to receive HPV vaccination (68.5% vs. 62.5% vs. 56.2%, p < 0.001) than non-permanent residents and floating population. Except for age, education level, marital status, monthly income, having daughter(s), and heard of HPV and its vaccine, the hukou and resident status significantly associated with the willingness to receive HPV vaccination (local residents vs. floating population: odds ratio, 1.216; 95% confidence interval, 1.057 to 1.398). None significant difference on the associated factors was found between local residents and internal migrants (p for interactions > 0.05).
Conclusion
Inequalities in awareness and attitude towards HPV and its vaccine existed between local and migrant residents in Shenzhen. The hukou and resident status did impact on the willingness to receive HPV vaccination, therefore, it is critical to implement effective health education campaigns on HPV and its vaccine among internal migrants.

Objective:
To analyze the distribution and associated factors of high-risk genotypes of HPV in cervical infection among women in Shenzhen.
Methods:
The information on sociodemographic characteristics and HPV genotypes of HPV-positive women who participated cervical screening test from January 2014 to December 2016 was downloaded from Shenzhen Maternity and Child Healthcare Management Information System. According to the pathogenicity, the high-risk HPV genotypes were divided into 15 types including HPV 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 53, 56, 58, 59, 66 and 68; and there were 6 low-risk genotypes including HPV 6, 11, 42, 43, 44, and 81. Chi-square tests were applied to compare the proportions of high-risk HPV infection among women who had different sociodemographic characteristics. A non-conditional logistic regression model was used to analyze the associated factors for high-risk HPV infection.
Results:
In total, all HIV positives received HPV genotyping, with an average age of (38.08±9.38) years old. There were 9 979 (93.9%) high-risk and 645 (6.1%) low-risk HPV infections. The proportions of HPV infections for high-risk type in each year were 91.5%, 93.8%, and 95.6%, increasing with the screening years (χ2=54.79,

Purpose:
This study attempted to detect the changes of cervical cancer screening rate and willingness among female migrants, and the associated socio-demographic factors in Shenzhen city.
Materials and Methods:
Two citywide surveys were conducted using a multistage random cluster sampling method in 2011 and 2014, respectively. Data on demographic characteristics, screening participation, and willingness to screen were collected. Logistic regression models were applied to detect possible associated socio-demographic characteristics, and their variations with survey years.
Results:
In total, 12,017 female migrants were enrolled, with a mean age (standard deviation) of 36.73 (6.55) years. From 2011 to 2014, the screening rate increased (25.8% vs. 35.1%, p < 0.001), while the willingness to screen remained stable (82.2% vs. 82.8%, p=0.46). Overall, socio-demographic characteristics of female migrants, including age, marital status, education, monthly income, employment, and medical insurance, were found to be positively associated with screening participation. Similar impacts in relation to willingness were observed except for age. However, these associations varied with survey years, mainly in the contributions of education and monthly income to screening participation, as well as age, monthly income, and medical insurance to willingness of being screened.
Conclusion
Identifying changes of associated socio-demographic factors precisely is warranted of necessity, which provides novel clues to adjust targeted actions regularly in promoting cervical cancer screening participation among female migrants in Shenzhen.

Objective To assess the epidemiology and clinical correlates of acute kidney injury(AKI)on patients in department of dermatology. Methods A total of 4710 patients hospitalized in dermatology department with at least two creatinine tests within 7 days were selected as research objects.AKI was defined and staged accord-ing to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria. Results The incidence of AKI was 6.3%. AKI inci-dences of psoriasis with systemic reaction(14.8%),erythroderma(12.8%),drug eruption(12.6%)and systemic lupus erythematosus (12.5%) were significant higher than the total incidence. In multivariate logistic regression model,these 4 skin diseases were independent risk factor of AKI incidence. The OR(95% confidencel interval) was 2.970(2.047~4.310),1.932(1.005~3.717),2.446(1.752~3.415)and 2.254(1.287~3.946). The in-hospital mortality was much higher in patients with AKI than those without(3.1% vs 0.1%,P < 0.001). And the AKI was related to in-hospital death after adjusted by age and comorbidities(Odds ratio 24.630,95%confidencel interval 7.385~82.149 ). Conclusion AKI is common in patients hospitalized in department of dermatology and is associated with patiensts′medical burden ,which shoule be noticed.

OBJECTIVETo assess the prevalence of colorectal cancer (CRC) in Beijing and the reliability of the sequential fecal occult blood test (SFOBT) for CRC screening.
METHODSOf the natural population (48 100 persons) in several Beijing communities, we screened 26 827 persons with age over 30 using the SFOBT screening program, Guaiacum Fecal Occult Blood Test (GFOBT), Immuno Fecal Occult Blood Test (IFOBT), and colonoscopies.
RESULTSThe screening rate of the population was 74%. The positive rate of SFOBT was 5.6%. The prevalence of CRC in the entire population of Beijing was therefore calculated to be 36.57/10(5). Of 12 CRC detected patients, 4 cases were in stage Dukes A (33.33%), 7 cases in stage Dukes B (58.33%), only 1 case (8.34%) in stage Dukes C.
CONCLUSIONSThe prevalence of CRC in Beijing is one of the highest in China. Individuals at high risk for CRC or those over 50 years of age should be considered as primary candidates for screening. SFOBT screening is a cost-effective and reliable method for early detection of CRC.
