Objective To explore influencing factors in diagnosing stump vaginal lesions by comparing the clinical data of patients with vaginal wall resection after total hysterectomy.Methods This retrospective study included patients who underwent vaginectomy due to stump vaginal lesions[including high-grade intraepithelial lesion(HSIL)or cancer]in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University between Jan 1,2013 and Sep 30,2022.The diagnosis was confirmed based on pathology results after vaginal stump resection,then patients were categorized into HSIL group and vaginal cancer(VC)group.We analyzed the differences in clinical features between the groups and evaluated the diagnostic value of various indicators for vaginal cancer.Additionally,within the VC group,patients whose colposcopic biopsy showed HSIL while whose pathology upgraded to invasive cancer after stump colpotomy were classified as the high-grade pathologic invasive cancer group(HC group).We then compared the HSIL group and the HC group to assess the predictive value of each index for pathological escalation.Results Significant differences were observed between the HSIL and VC groups in terms of age,etiology of previous hysterectomy,proportion of clinical symptoms,proportion of abnormal physical examination findings,proportion of abnormal imaging findings,proportion of papillary lesions,proportion of vaginal roof lesions,and squamous cell carcinoma antigen(SCCA)(P<0.05).However,there were no significant differences in fertility,previous hysterectomy,or HPV infection rate.Abnormal physical examination and imaging findings demonstrated better diagnostic performance(AUC>0.7).The proportion of vaginal apex lesions was significantly higher in the HC group compared with the HSIL group(P<0.05).Conclusion Previous hysterectomy for cervical cancer,presence of clinical symptoms,abnormal physical findings,abnormal imaging manifestations,and lesions at the vaginal apex are significant influencing factors in the diagnosis of vaginal stump carcinoma.Although colposcopy remains the primary diagnostic method,vaginal resection should be considered to rule out invasive carcinoma when high-risk factors exist,even if colposcopic biopsy pathology suggests HSIL.

Objective:To investigate the effects of combination therapy with aqueous extract of corn silk(CS)and training on exercise capacity and glycolipid metabolism in mice with metabolic syndrome(MS).Methods:In this study,db/db mice were used as the animal model of MS.The mice were administered aqueous extract of CS via gavage and subjected to different intensities of training for 12 weeks(3 months).The specific experimental design was as follows:24 db/db mice were randomly divided into four groups on average:negative control group(NC),aqueous extract of CS group(CS),aqueous extract of CS+moderate-intensity training group(CS+MT),and CS aqueous extract of CS+high-intensity training group(CS+HT).The maximum running speed,forelimb grip strength,body weight and fasting blood glucose of mice were measured before and after treatment.After the intervention,oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT)and insulin tolerance test(ITT)were conducted to assess glucose metabolism,while serum triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)levels were measured to evaluate lipid metabolism.Results:After 3 months of intervention,there were significant differences in the maximum running speed and forelimb grip strength among the four groups(P＜0.05).The maximum running speed and forelimb grip strength of CS group,CS+MT group and CS+HT group were higher than those of NC group(P＜0.05).The CS+MT group exhibited higher forelimb grip strength,and the CS+HT group showed higher maximum running speed and forelimb grip strength compared to the CS group(P＜0.05),while no significant difference was found between the CS+MT and CS+HT groups(P＞0.05).Significant differences in body weight were observed among the four groups after 3 months of intervention(P＜0.05).Specifically,the CS+MT and CS+HT groups exhibited significantly lower body weight compared to both the NC and CS groups(P＜0.05),with the CS+MT group having the lowest body weight(P＜0.05).Fasting blood glucose levels also differed significantly among the groups after 2 and 3 months of intervention(P＜0.05).The CS,CS+MT,and CS+HT groups had lower fasting blood glucose levels compared to the NC group(P＜0.05),with the CS+MT and CS+HT groups showing the lowest levels(P＜0.05).No significant difference was found between the CS+MT and CS+HT groups(P＞0.05).After 3 months of intervention,significant differences in the area under the curve(AUC)of OGTT and ITT were observed among the four groups(P＜0.05).The AUC of OGTT and ITT were significantly lower in the CS,CS+MT,and CS+HT groups compared to the NC group(P＜0.05).The CS+MT and CS+HT groups exhibited the lowest AUC values for both OGTT and ITT(P＜0.05),with the CS+MT group showing the lowest AUC for OGTT(P＜0.05).Significant differences in serum lipid levels were observed among the four groups after 3 months of intervention(P＜0.05).TG,TC,and LDL-C levels were significantly lower,while HDL-C levels were higher in the CS,CS+MT,and CS+HT groups compared to the NC group(P＜0.05).The CS+MT group had the lowest TG levels and the highest HDL-C levels compared to the CS+HT group(P＜0.05),with no significant differences in TC and LDL-C levels between these two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Aqueous extract of CS combined with different intensity training can significantly improve the exercise capacity and glycolipid metabolism of MS mice and reduce body weight,especially CS combined with MT treatment is more effective in improving lipid metabolism.In addition,when combined with HT,aqueous extract of CS can also play an auxiliary role in reducing the side effects of high-intensity exercise and improving the therapeutic effect.
