Objective To analyze the differences in aging-related information between Chinese and American drug instruction for common chronic disease in the elderly,and to propose policy recommendations for the aging-related drug instruction in China.Methods Ten common chronic disease treatment drugs for elderly patients were selected,and through the random sampling method,the drug manuals of one domestic manufacturer were randomly selected for each drug by the random number method,and one American drug manual was selected as a sample from the dailymed website,and the information related to elderly people in the various items of the drug manuals was statistically analyzed by using Excel for comparative analysis.The average reading level of the patient version of the U.S.drug instructions was calculated using the Readability Formulas Scoring System;the readability of the Chinese drug instructions was assessed by the Health Education Text Material Suitability Scale.Results Compared with the U.S.drug instruction,the drug instruction for common chronic diseases of the elderly in China were updated less frequently and at a slower pace;the drug instruction with information on medication for elderly patients were fewer than those of the U.S.drug instruction,and the content of the drug instruction was not well documented;and the drug instruction were poorly readable,which was not conducive to the comprehension of the elderly patients.Conclusion China is in urgent need of reforming the aging of drug instructions,and it is recommended that,for chronic disease medications for elderly patients,we should increase the number of clinical trials conducted on the elderly,improve and complete the drug information for the elderly in the drug instructions,and produce"drug instructions for elderly patients"that are suitable for the elderly to read and understand.

Objective This study is focused on ultrasound multimodality examination,which refers to the combined use of three ultrasound examination modalities,ultrasound(US),acoustic radiation force impulse(ARFI)imaging,and contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS).The purpose of this study is to analyze the value of applying ultrasound multimodality examination in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant breast non-mass-like lesions(NMLs).Methods Cases of breast NMLs were analyzed retrospectively,and the nature of all the lesions was verified by pathological examination.Based on the gray-scale ultrasound image characteristics,the cases were classified into types Ⅰto Ⅴ,and type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ were further classified into 4 subtypes,Ⅰa,Ⅰ b,Ⅱ a,and Ⅱ b,according to whether there was also calcification,and the proportion of malignant cases in each subtype was statistically analyzed.Logistic regression models of US,US+ARFI,US+CEUS,and US+ARFI+CEUS for the diagnosis of malignant cases were established,ROC curves were drawn,the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated,and comparisons were made accordingly.The detection rate of malignant NMLs without calcification(atypical malignant NMLs)by the combination examination of US,ARFI,and CEUS was analyzed.Results A total of 407 cases were included in the study.All subjects were female,aged 22 to 81 years,with the average age being(47.0±1 1.0)years.There were 220 benign cases and 187 malignant cases.Ranked from the highest to the lowest,the malignancy proportion of the different types wasⅠb＞Ⅱb＞Ⅲ＞V＞Ⅰa＞Ⅱa＞Ⅳ.The malignant proportion of the low echo area with calcification was significantly higher than that of the lesions without calcification.The AUC(95％confidence interval[CI])for diagnosing malignant cases with the logistic regression models of US,US+ARFI,US+CEUS,and US+ARFI+CEUS were 0.895(0.862-0.927),0.908(0.878-0.937),0.921(0.893-0.948),and 0.927(0.902-0.952),respectively.Comparison of the AUC of the 4 regression models showed significant differences(P＜0.001).The detection rate of US for NMLs without calcification was 80.7％.When US was used in combination with ARFI and CEUS,86.4％of the malignant NMLs lesions without calcification could be detected if the lesion CEUS score was 4 or 5 points or if shear-wave velocity(SWV)≥4.28 m/s.Conclusion Breast NMLs with calcification show high risks of malignancy,and a pathological examination is always recommended for a conclusive diagnosis.Ultrasound multimodality examination can improve the diagnostic accuracy of breast NML without calcification.

Background: There is still controversy whether the existence of esophageal heterotopic gastric mucosa (EHGM) and its histological type are related to the laryngopharyngeal symptoms. Aims: To analyze the clinical and histological characteristics of EHGM and its correlation with gastroesophageal reflux. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in consecutive gastroscopy-proved EHGM cases from September 2018 to January 2020 at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Baotou Medical College. Besides clinical data review and questionnaire survey on reflux symptoms, histological typing of EHGM and immunohistochemistry were also performed in some cases. Results: A total of 1 229 cases of EHGM were recruited. The male-to-female ratio was 1.67:1, and middle-aged people were predominant. Most of the heterotopic mucosa were located 15-18 cm away from the incisors, and were mainly single. Two hundred and ninety-four cases (23.9%) were complicated with reflux esophagitis (RE), of which Los Angeles grade A and B accounted for 96.6%. Regurgitation/acid reflux (15.5 %) and heartburn (12.3%) were the most common esophageal symptoms, while extraesophageal symptoms were rare. Histological typing was obtained in 57 cases, of which, 37 (64.9%) were cardia-type, 18 (31.6%) were fundic-type, and 2 (3.5%) were mixed type. There were no significant differences in gender, age, location and number of EHGM, expression levels of H

OBJECTIVE: To study the influence of maternal sex chromosomal abnormalities on the prediction of fetal sex chromosome abnormalities (SCAs) by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). METHODS: Thirty-six pregnant women with a prediction for fetal SCAs by NIPT were verified as false positive after prenatal diagnosis using amniotic fluid samples. With informed consent, these women were subjected to chromosomal karyotyping or copy number variations (CNVs) analysis through high-throughput sequencing. RESULTS: Sex chromosomal abnormalities were found in 8 women, which yielded an abnormal rate of 22.22% (8/36). Among these, 3 had sex chromosome aneuploidies (47, XXX), 4 had sex chromosome mosaicisms, and 1 carried structural chromosomal abnormalities. Reanalysis of the results of NIPT were consistent with the maternal CNVs by large. With the ratio of cffDNA (ChrX)/cffDNA was more than 2, 6 of the eight women were found to harbor sex chromosome abnormalities, and the fetal karyotype was normal. However, with a ratio of less than 2, only 2 of the 38 pregnant women had sex chromosome abnormalities, and 10 of the fetuses were confirmed as positive. CONCLUSION The presence of maternal sex chromosomal abnormalities can greatly influence the result of NIPT, which may also be an important reason for false prediction for fetal SCAs by NIPT. When NIPT indicates abnormal SCAs, it is necessary to analyze maternal sex chromosomes. The ratio of cffDNA(ChrX)/cffDNA may help to determine the source of abnormal signals.

Objective:To investigate the effect of management system on pregnancy outcome in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) of childbearing age.Methods:A total of 1203 patients with PCOS aged 20-45 years were collected in Reproductive Center of Zhongshan Boai Hospital from June 2016 to May 2018. Totally 755 who would like to be included in the long term management system were collected as study group and received basic blood pressure and weight control and serum monitoring, scientific education was performed through WeChat platform established for PCOS management and other methods. Other 448 patients with PCOS were not included in the long-term management system (control group), and their pregnancy outcomes were followed up.Results:The total pregnancy rate of study group was higher than that of control group (25.74% vs.18.13%, P=0.010), and the total abortion rate of study group was lower than that of control group (14.19% vs. 22.58%, P=0.199). Conclusion:Comprehensive management of PCOS patients of childbearing age can improve the public's cognition and acceptance of PCOS as a chronic disease, improve the compliance and pregnancy outcome of PCOS patients.

Objective: To investigate the association of both maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and gestational weight gain (GWG) with childhood overweight and adiposity in preschool children. Methods: A total of 4 303 preschool children aged 3-5 years were enrolled in our study during June and November 2016 in Guangzhou. Children defined as overweight and obesity were according to the criteria of WHO while weight status during maternal pre-pregnancy was using the China Adult Reference. Gestational weight gain was defined according to the Institute of Medicine guidelines. Results: After adjusting the possible confounding factors, results from the logistic regression analysis showed that both maternal pre-pregnancy overweight and obesity would increase the risk for both childhood overweight and obesity (OR=1.820, 95%CI: 1.368-2.422). The analysis of covariance results also showed that both maternal overweight and obesity before pregnancy and excessive maternal weight gain during pregnancy increased the BMI Z-score in children. Maternal GWG over the recommended level were associated with both the childhood overweight and obesity (OR=1.296, 95%CI: 1.007-1.667). Joint associations of pre-pregnancy BMI and inappropriate GWG were also noticed in the study. Stratified analysis was conducted in three groups according to the pre-pregnancy BMI of the mothers. Result showed that there was no statistical difference in the risks of either overweight or obesity in children (P>0.05). However, when compared to mothers with adequate pre-pregnancy higher BMI and adequate GWG, under the combination of high pre-pregnancy BMI and excessive GWG, their adverse effects on childhood overweight and obesity were much higher (OR=1.574, 95%CI: 1.029-2.409). Conclusions Both high pre-pregnancy BMI and inappropriate GWG were associated with greater BMI of their offspring. Pregnant women should follow the appropriate weight gain program and help their children to prevent from becoming obese.
