Objective:To investigate the correlation of epithelial lesions among different biopsy sites in the female lower genital tract and the relationship between age and lesion distribution.Methods:A total of 406 148 patients with cervical biopsy specimens archived at the Department of Pathology, Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University from January 2010 to December 2021 were analyzed. Among them, 70 309 cases (17.31%) had concurrent vaginal biopsies, and 16 073 cases (3.96%) had concurrent vulvar biopsies. (1) Cases were divided into four 3-year intervals to compare vaginal or vulvar biopsy rates and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) or worse (HSIL +) detection rates across time periods. (2) Correlations between cervical lesions and vaginal or vulvar lesions were assessed. (3) Patients were stratified into three age groups (<30, 30-49, and ≥50 years) to compare vaginal or vulvar HSIL + detection rates. Results:Mean ages of patients with cervical, vaginal, and vulvar biopsies were (41.3±11.0), (47.4±12.5), and (41.9±13.2) years, respectively. Patients with vaginal biopsy were significantly older than cervical or vulvar groups (all P<0.001). (1) Vaginal biopsy rates increased markedly from 7.37% (2010—2012) to 22.76% (2019—2021; χ2=9 205.01, P<0.001); vulvar biopsy rates increased slightly from 2.80% to 5.69% ( χ2=1 777.25, P<0.001). Correspondingly, vaginal HSIL + detection rates rose from 0.28% to >0.5% (0.56% in 2013—2015, 0.59% in 2016—2018, 0.51% in 2019—2021; χ2=134.70, P<0.001), while vulvar HSIL + rates increased from 0.03% to 0.33% ( χ2=56.54, P<0.001). (2) Weak correlation existed between cervical and vaginal lesions ( r=0.28; P<0.001; n=70 309), while cervical-vulvar correlation was weaker ( r=0.22, P<0.001; n=16 073). (3) Vaginal HSIL + detection rates were higher in cervical HSIL + patients aged 30-49 years (26.65%) and ≥50 years (26.79%) versus <30 years (14.63%; both P<0.001). Conversely, vulvar HSIL + detection rates were higher in the <30 years group (23.08%) versus 30-49 years (13.83%) and ≥50 years (12.89%; both P<0.05). Conclusions:Vaginal or vulvar lesion detection rates increase with biopsy frequency. Vaginal lesions correlate with cervical abnormalities, whereas vulvar lesions are relatively independent. In cervical HSIL + patients, those <30 years are more prone to have vulvar HSIL +, while those ≥30 years show higher vaginal HSIL + incidence. These age-specific distribution patterns inform optimized biopsy strategies.

Objective:To analyze the effects of the disease and injury spectrum on health-adjusted life expectancy (HALE) among permanent residents aged 55 and above in Shenzhen from 2016 to 2030.Methods:Based on the mortality surveillance data and the permanent resident population data in Shenzhen from 2016 to 2022, the Sullivan method was used to calculate the HALE during 2016—2022. The Bayesian age-period-cohort model and the grey system model were used to predict the HALE during 2023—2030. The HALE changes in the two periods were decomposed into the contributions of 20 categories of diseases and injuries, respectively.Results:From 2016 to 2022, the HALE increased from 31.41 years (95% CI: 30.50-32.32) to 33.57 years (95% CI: 32.47-34.67). During this period, the mortality effect of neurological disorders slowed the increase of HALE, with a reduction of 0.27 years. By 2030, it is anticipated that the HALE will reach 36.40 years (95% CI: 34.78-38.01). This is expected to be influenced by the mortality effects of nutritional deficiencies (-0.40 years) and mental disorders (-0.29 years), as well as the disability effects of musculoskeletal disorders (-0.66 years), skin and subcutaneous diseases (-0.21 years) and nutritional deficiencies (-0.13 years). Conclusion:The HALE of permanent residents aged 55 years and above in Shenzhen demonstrated an increasing trend over time. Greater attention should be paid to the adverse effects of neurological disorders, nutritional deficiencies, mental disorders, musculoskeletal disorders, and skin and subcutaneous diseases on the continuous increase of HALE in this population.

Objective:To investigate the alterations in the brain structural network properties related to cognitive emotion regulation strategies in young, first-episode and drug-naive (FEDN) patients with major depressive disorder (MDD).Methods:One hundred and twelve young patients who were diagnosed with FEDN MDD were enrolled in the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between October 2019 and October 2023, and 143 healthy controls (HC) were recruited for reference during the same period. Clinical data and T 1 structural images of high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging were collected from all participants, and the cognitive emotion regulation was assessed using the Chinese version of the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ-C). The brain structural alterations related to cognitive emotion regulation strategies were explored using whole-brain voxel-based morphometry (VBM) group analysis and individual differential structural covariance network (IDSCN) analysis. Partial correlation analysis was performed between the IDSCN anomalous structural concatenated edge and subdimensions of the CERQ-C. Results:The scores on the sub-dimension of negative cognitive emotion regulation (self-condemnation, rumination, catastrophization, blaming others) in the young FEDN MDD patients in CERQ-C were significantly higher than those in HC (14.28±2.30 vs 12.45±2.00, t=6.501, P<0.001;14.40±2.97 vs 11.31±2.93, t=7.934, P<0.001;12.19±3.75 vs 7.59±2.58, t=10.553, P<0.001;10.26±3.00 vs 8.74±2.89, t=3.916, P<0.001; respectively). There was no statistically significant difference in the VBM group analysis (all P>0.05). However, IDSCN single sample t test results showed significant group differences between the left orbitofrontal inferior gyrus and the left supplementary motor area, the left orbitofrontal middle gyrus and the bilateral precuneus, and the left superior temporal gyrus and the bilateral hippocampus (all P<0.05). With controlling for age, sex, and other factors, partial correlation analysis results showed that the left orbital inferior frontal gyrus-left supplementary motor area connection in patients with MDD was positively correlated with the self-condemnation and acceptance scores of the CERQ-C ( r=0.226, P=0.027; r=0.216, P=0.035), while negatively correlated with the score of blaming others ( r=-0.252, P=0.013). Additionally, connections between the right hippocampus and left superior temporal gyrus were significantly associated with the scores on catastrophization subdimension of the CERQ-C ( r=0.229, P=0.025). Conclusion:Due to its sensitivity to individualized analyses, the IDSCN analysis found that abnormal topological property changes were mainly manifested in the limbic system, the sensorimotor system, and the default network in young FEDN MDD patients, and were linked to their negative cognitive emotion regulation strategies, even though the VBM group analysis did not yield any significant results.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of auricular composite tissue particle injection in the treatment of nasal collapse.Methods:Patients with flat nose in Yuyao People′s Hospital of Zhejiang Province from June 2021 to June 2023 were retrospectively enrolled, and were divided into two groups according to the treatment methods: Observation group, 41 cases were treated with ear complex tissue granule injection, including 16 males and 25 females, aged 19-45 (27.2±1.6) years; Control group, 54 cases underwent silicone prosthesis implantation, including 21 males and 33 females, aged 18-46 (26.4±1.8) years. The satisfaction rates of nasal tip and nasal shape at 1 week, 6 months and 1 year after surgery were compared between the two groups, and the effect maintenance rates of patients at 6 months and 1 year after surgery were compared between the two groups, and the occurrence of adverse reactions in the two groups was recorded.Results:The satisfaction rates of nasal tip at 1 week, 6 months, and 1 year after surgery were 79.6% (43/54), 64.8% (35/54), and 48.2% (26/54) in the control group, and 92.7% (38/41), 78.1% (32/41), and 63.4% (26/41) in the observation group, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (all P>0.05). The satisfaction rates of nasal shape at 1 week, 6 months and 1 year after surgery were 79.6% (43/54), 55.6% (30/54) and 40.7% (22/54) in the control group and 90.2% (37/41), 75.6% (31/41) and 56.1% (23/41) in the observation group, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the effect maintenance rate between the two groups at 6 months and 1 year after surgery (all P>0.05). The total incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 4.9% (2/41), which was lower than that of 27.8% (15/54) in the control group ( P=0.004). Conclusion:Compared with silicone implantation, there is no significant difference in the nasal tip, nasal shape satisfaction rate and effect maintenance rate of the auricular composite tissue particle injection in the treatment of flat nose , and the incidence of adverse reactions is low.
