Objective:
To investigate the incidence of adverse events following immunization (AEFI) of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines in Hangzhou City from 2017 to 2021, so as to provide insights into safety monitoring and evaluation for HPV vaccines.
Methods:
The AEFI caused by immunization of bivalent (HPV2), quadrivalent (HPV4) and nonavalent HPV vaccines (HPV9) reported in Hangzhou City from 2017 to 2021 were captured from the AEFI Surveillance Module of Chinese Disease Control and Prevention Information System, and HPV vaccination data were captured from the Zhejiang Municipal Immunization Information Management System. The incidence, temporal distributions and clinical symptoms of AEFI were analyzed.
Results:
Totally 922 310 doses of HPV vaccines were immunized in Hangzhou City from 2017 to 2021, and 232 cases with AEFI were reported, with an overall incidence rate of 25.15/105 doses. The reported incidence rates of AEFI caused by HPV2, HPV4 and HPV9 vaccination were 31.13/105 doses, 25.93/105 doses and 22.01/105 doses, respectively. General reactions and abnormal reactions were predominant AEFI, and the reported incidence rates of general reactions and abnormal reactions were 21.58/105 doses and 2.60/105 dose, respectively. AEFI predominantly occurred 0 to 1 day post-immunization (165 cases, 71.12%), and the main clinical symptoms included local swelling of injection sites, hard tubercle and fever, with reported incidence rates of 10.30/105 doses, 5.96/105 doses and 6.18/105 doses, respectively.
Conclusions
Low incidence of AEFI was reported following HPV vaccination in Hangzhou City from 2017 to 2021, and all AEFI were mild. The safety of HPV2, HPV4 and HPV9 remains high.

Objective:To compare the safety and immunogenicity of Sabin strain-based inactivated poliovirus vaccine (sIPV) and the liquid form of typeⅠ+ Ⅲ bivalent oral poliovirus vaccine (bOPV) administered to infants aged ≥2 months in different schedules.Methods:A randomized, blinded, single-center, parallel-group controlled trial was conducted in Hangzhou from 2017 to 2018. Healthy infants aged ≥2 months were enrolled and randomized to receive the vaccines on a schedule of 2, 3, 4 months. Group 1sIPV+ 2bOPV was given one dose of sIPV and two doses of bOPV; group 2sIPV+ 1bOPV was administrated two doses of sIPV and one dose of bOPV; group 3sIPV received three doses of sIPV. Adverse events (AEs) following vaccination were recorded. Blood samples were collected from the subjects (excluding the quitters or subjects against the trial plan) 28-35 d after the full-course immunization. A microneutralization assay was performed to detect the geometric mean titers (GMTs) of neutralizing antibodies against polio virus of Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ types. The seroconversion rates of neutralizing antibodies were also calculated.Results:The overall incidence of AEs following vaccination was 3.57% in 1sIPV+ 2bOPV group, 3.61% in 2sIPV+ 1bOPV group and 1.19% in 3sIPV group (χ 2=1.190, P=0.552) and no severe AEs were reported. The antibody seroconversion rates in 1sIPV+ 2bOPV, 2sIPV+ 1bOPV and 3sIPV groups were respectively 100% (84/84), 100% (83/83) and 100% (84/84) against type Ⅰ poliovirus, 81% (68/84), 96% (80/83) and 99% (83/84) against type Ⅱ poliovirus(χ 2=21.469, P<0.001), and 100% (84/84), 100% (83/84) and 100% (84/84) against type Ⅲ poliovirus. In 1sIPV+ 2bOPV, 2sIPV+ 1bOPV and 3sIPV groups, the GMTs of antibody were 1 024.00, 1 015.48 and 982.61 against type Ⅰ poliovirus ( F=2.742, P=0.066), 16.81, 107.94 and 218.85 against type Ⅱ poliovirus ( F=33.570, P<0.001), and 990.75, 990.36 and 613.92 against type Ⅲ poliovirus ( F=37.886, P<0.001). Conclusions:sIPV and bOPV administered in different schedules showed good safety and immunogenicity in infants aged≥2 months. The GMT and the seroconversion rate of neutralizing antibody against type Ⅱ poliovirus after vaccination were higher in 2sIPV+ 1bOPV and 3sIPV group than in 1sIPV+ 2bOPV group. Higher GMT of neutralizing antibody against type Ⅲ poliovirus was induced in 1sIPV+ 2bOPV and 2sIPV+ 1bOPV groups than in 3sIPV group.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common oral cancer. Previous studies have found significantly high miR-155 expression in OSCC. However, the mechanism by which miR-155 plays a role in OSCC oncogenesis is not yet clear. This article reviews the function of the relationship between miR-155 and tumors and the potential role of miR-155 in the development of OSCC. A literature review showed that mir-155, as a small carcinogenic RNA, can inhibit CDC73, BCL6, P27Kip1 and other target genes that play a role in cancer inhibition; promote the proliferation, migration and invasion of OSCC cells; and inhibit apoptosis. miR-155 can also be combined with biological factors (Epstein-Barr virus, human papillomavirus) to promote the development of OSCC.
