Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and risk factors of brucellosis in Yan'an City, and to provide a theoretical basis for scientifically formulating prevention and control measures for brucellosis.Methods:A descriptive analysis method was used to analyze the general information, epidemiological characteristics of confirmed brucellosis cases at General Hospital of Yan'an Second Medical Group from 2019 to 2023. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the risk factors for brucellosis infection in the population.Results:From 2019 to 2023, a total of 301 cases of brucellosis were confirmed, and the number of cases in each year was 1, 7, 85, 85 and 123 cases, respectively. There were 231 males and 70 females, with a gender ratio of 3.3 ∶ 1.0. The patients were mainly aged between 15 and 64 years old (88.70%, 267/301), with a higher incidence in summer and autumn (36.55%, 110/301; 30.23%, 91/301). The occupation was dominated by farmers (62.98%, 182/289). The area with the highest number of cases was Ansai District (20.67%, 62/300), followed by Baota District (19.33%, 58/300) and Zhidan County (17.67%, 53/300). The results of multivariate logistic analysis showed that contact with livestock and unprotected contact were risk factors for brucellosis infection ( OR = 2.81, 6.75, 95% CI: 1.14 - 5.98, 1.23 - 15.72, P < 0.05). Conclusions:From 2019 to 2023, the number of brucellosis cases in Yan'an has been increasing year by year, with a higher incidence among young and middle-aged people. Summer and autumn are the high incidence seasons for the disease, and Ansai District, Baota District, and Zhidan County are key areas for brucellosis prevention and control in Yan'an City. Failure to take protective measures when in contact with livestock can increase the probability of brucellosis infection.

Objective:To explore the histopathological factors affecting the stiffness of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).Methods:Ninety-six patients with PTC confirmed by surgery and pathology in Shanxi Bethune Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected, including 101 nodules. Two-dimensional ultrasound and shear-wave elastography (SWE) were performed before surgery and the average Young's modulus (Emean) of PTC nodules were measured. Histopathological examinations on the nodules were conducted after surgery to decide the lesion size, number of lesions, calcification type, presence or absence of capsular and extracapsular invasion, degree of fibrosis, microvessel density, and number of tumor cells. The correlations between the lesion size, degree of fibrosis, microvessel density, and number of tumor cells and the Emean were analyzed. The Emeans of nodules with different numbers of lesions, presence or absence of capsular and extracapsular invasion, and different pathological calcification types were compared. The multiple linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the histopathological factors influencing the Emean.Results:The ranges of the lesion sizes, degrees of fibrosis, microvascular density, numbers of tumor cells, and the Emeans of the 101 investigated PTC nodules were (1.29±0.95) cm, (30.64±18.37)%, (101.64±30.7) vessels per high power field, (373.52±149.87) cells per high power field, and (36.47±19.62) kPa, respectively. Correlation analysis showed that the lesion size of PTC and the degree of fibrosis were positively correlated with the Emean ( r=0.660, P<0.001; r=0.789, P<0.001), while the microvessel density was negatively correlated with the Emean ( r=-0.198, P=0.047). The Emean of the group with capsular and extracapsular invasion was higher than that of the group without ( P=0.014). There were statistical differences in the Emeans among different types of pathological calcification ( P<0.001). The multiple linear regression analysis showed that the lesion size ( β=0.325, P<0.001), degree of fibrosis ( β=0.563, P<0.001), psammoma bodies ( β=0.177, P=0.001), stromal calcification ( β=0.164, P=0.003), and mixed calcification of both psammoma bodies and stroma ( β=0.163, P=0.003) were independent influencing factors for the Emean. The degree of fibrosis had the greatest impact on the Emean. Conclusions:The Emean of PTC lesions was correlated with the histopathological characteristics of PTC. The lesion size, degree of fibrosis, and calcification had significant impact on the Emean, among which the degree of fibrosis had the greatest impact.
