Objective To analyze the status of persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and the distribution of viral subtypes in the Zhengzhou region. Methods Clinical data of 55239 patients who underwent HPV-DNA genotyping tests from 2018 to 2024 were collected. On the basis of HPV follow-up results, patients were divided into three groups: 849 cases of infection with the same HPV type, 255 cases of persistent infection with different HPV types, and 857 cases of transient HPV infection. Results Among the 9232 initially-screened patients who were positive with HPV, the high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) positive rate was 84.6% (7813/9232), and predominant subtypes were HPV-16 (20.8%), HPV-52 (17.2%), and HPV-53 (9.6%). The low-risk HPV (LR-HPV) positive rate was 15.4% (1419/9232), mainly HPV-81 (28.1%) and HPV-42 (27.0%). Among the 1961 follow-up cases, the rates of persistent and non-persistent infections with the same HPV type were 35.7% (701/1961) and 7.5% (148/1961), respectively. The rates of persistent and non-persistent infections with different HPV types were 10.9% (214/1961) and 2.1% (41/1961), respectively. Meanwhile, 43.7% (857/1961) tested negative upon follow-up. Among the 701 cases of persistent infection with the same HPV type, HR-HPV accounted for 85.7% (601/701), and LR-HPV accounted for 14.3% (100/701). Among the 214 cases of persistent infection with different HPV types, 89.7% (192/214) were high-risk transitions, and 10.3% (22/214) were low-risk transitions. Regardless of HPV types, HR-HPV was more likely to cause persistent infection than LR-HPV. In addition, over 60% of HR-HPV persistent infections resolved within 18 months, 30% developed into persistent infections, and only 15% of patients had persistent infections that last more than 24 months. Conclusion Persistent HPV infections are predominantly high-risk types. Most patients clear the infection within 18 months, approximately 30% develop persistent infections, and about 15% of patients have persistent infections that last more than 24 months. However, the HR-HPV persistent infection rates across different age groups slightly differ.

Mitochondria are the main site of energy metabolism in cardiomyocytes， and at the same time mediate apoptosis and immune response， so mitochondrial dysfunction is closely related to the development of heart failure. Combined with the pathogenesis of mitochondrial dysfunction and heart failure， it is proposed that the mitochondrial function is similar to "sweat pore - collaterals - zang and fu organs"， according to which the treatment of heart failure is based on the theory of "sweat pore - collaterals - zang and fu organs". It is believed that the core mechanism of heart failure is qi deficiency， and qi deficiency leads to the weakness of the sweat pore opening and closing， or even the sweat pore closure， then resulting in qi deficiency and blood stasis， collaterals stagnation fail to flourish， and qi， blood， and body fluids can not infiltrate and nourish zang-fu organs， so that the heart fail to be nourished， and the disease will develop. The treatment should be based on the method of boosting qi and opening sweat pore， using acridity to unblock the collaterals， and invigorating blood and draining water， with medicinal of boosting qi， invigorating blood， and draining water as treatment.

Objective:To observe the feelings of listening to music and the importance of music in the daily life of post-lingual deaf adults with cochlear implants, and to explore the relevant influencing factors.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey study. From January 2021 to August 2021,the Music-Related Quality of Life Scale was used to evaluate the music needs and music experiences of 63 post-lingual deaf adults who met the inclusion criteria, including 27 males and 36 females, aged (40.7±12.3) years, at the time of surgery (36.8±13.1) years, and with a preoperative hearing aid ineffective time of (3.9±5.8) years. Indicators analyzed included age, duration of ineffective preoperative hearing aid wear, preoperative music preference, duration of postoperative cochlear implant use, current hearing aid modality, and auditory rehabilitation outcomes. Whether the six factors mentioned above constituted an influence on the subjects′ music listening was investigated using SPSS 25.0 statistical software.Results:All of the observations in the scale were correlated with a single factor. The two sub-dimensions of music experience section were related to the effect of auditory rehabilitation. In the importance section, the effect of auditory rehabilitation was the influential factor of the dimension of "participation importance", and the preoperative enjoyment of music was the relevant influential factor of the dimension of "perceived importance". There was a significant difference between the groups when they were grouped by the above factors ( P value<0.05), while there was no statistically significance between the groups when they were grouped by other factors ( P value>0.05). Conclusions:Post-lingual deaf adults show the need and attempt to listen to music after cochlear implantation. The effectiveness of auditory rehabilitation and the degree of music preference preoperatively are two important factors that influence music listening in implant recipients. Once the level of auditory communication has been restored to a certain degree, it is important to pay more attention to the needs of music for implant recipients and train them in time, especially for those with music preferences preoperatively.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical outcomes of patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) after surgeries in Yunnan Province. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the demographic features, vascular risk factors, severity at admission, and aneurysm locations in 85 patients with aSAH receiving surgical interventions in Yunnan Province. All the patients were treated by aneurysm clipping or coiling and followed up for clinical outcomes and recovery of daily activities evaluated by modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale, respectively. RESULTS: Thirty-four of the patients (40.0%) underwent aneurysm clipping and 51 (60.0%) underwent aneurysm coiling. During a median follow- up period of 66.23 months (IOR, 12.03 months), 84.7% of the patients had low mRS scores, and 78.8% lived independently. The WFNS grade at admission was significantly correlated with the follow-up mRS scores (95%: 1.48-19.09, =0.011) and ADL (95%: 2.55-28.77, < 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that age (95%: 1.02-1.23, =0.017; 95%: 1.00-1.15, =0.038) and a high WFNS grade at admission (95%: 2.19-141.48, =0.007; 95%: 2.84-82.61, =0.002) were independent predictors of both mRS and ADL scores at follow-up. There was no significant difference in clinical outcomes or the length of hospital stay between the two treatment strategies ( > 0.05), but the cost of hospitalization was significantly higher in coiling group than in the clipping group ( < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Both aging and a high WFNS grade at admission are associated with a poor prognosis of aSAH, for which aneurysm clipping and coiling have similar long- term outcomes, but for patients with a high WFNS score, aneurysm clipping is favored over coiling in terms of health economics.

Objective:To investigate whether the bladder neck descent and the area of levator ani hiatus obtained on the maximum Valsalva were consistent at the lithotomy position and separating-legs-holding-knees position.Methods:Forty four subjects who underwent perineal pelvic floor four-dimensional ultrasound at 6-8 weeks postpartum in Third Hospital of Longgang Shenzhen from November 2019 to January 2020 were enrolled in this study. All subjects were able to effectively complete the maximum Valsalva maneuver both at the lithotomy position and the separating-legs-holding-knees position. The bladder neck descent and hiatus area of the levator Ani on the maximum Valsalva at these two positions were measured and compared.Results:The bladder neck descent at the separating-legs-holding-knees position was higher than that at the lithotomy position [(41.06±8.25)mm vs (39.96±8.10)mm; t=-2.965, P=0.005], and the hiatus area of levator Ani at the separating-legs-holding-knees position was larger than that at the lithotomy position[(27.55±4.90)cm 2 vs (26.32±4.76)cm 2; t=-3.820, P<0.001]. Conclusions:The bladder neck descent and the area of levator Ani hiatus on the maximum Valsalva at separating-legs- holding-knees position are larger than those on the maximum Valsalva at the lithotomy position.

Objective To investigate the citizen's attitude towards the cognition of brain death and the legislation of brain death criteria. Methods A questionnaire survey was performed in 1 500 outpatients or accompanying personnel by the convenient sampling method. The questionnaire data were independently recorded by two professionals using the Epidata 3.02 software. The factors influencing the citizen's support of the legislation of brain death were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression models. Results Among 1 433 eligible respondents, 84.65% (1 213/1 433) of them knew brain death, and 24.32% (295/1 213) considered brain death as a reasonable criterion for death. The proportion of respondents who supported and opposed the legislation of brain death was 49.79% (604/1 213) and 17.31% (210/1 213).Male [odds ratio (OR)=1.3, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.0-1.6], those with junior college degree or above at educational level (OR=1.5, 95%CI 1.1-1.9), those whose relatives and friends were engaged in organ donation (OR=3.3, 95%CI 1.1-10.3), those who participated in public welfare activities of organ donation (OR=3.1, 95%CI 1.6-6.0) and those who regarded brain death as a reasonable criterion for death (OR=2.0, 95%CI 1.5-2.6) were more inclined to support the legislation of brain death, which were the independent influencing factors of the legislation of brain death (all P < 0.05). Conclusions Citizens have relatively low cognition and support of the legislation of brain death criteria. Relevant propaganda on brain death should be widely carried out to strengthen the citizen basis for the legislation.

Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic operation in thetreatment of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) at unfavorable positions. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of patients with gastric GIST at unfavorable positions confirmed by pathology after surgery (laparoscopy or laparotomy) at the Southwest Hospital of the Army Medical University and the Minda Hospital of Hubei Minzu University from June 2008 to June 2018. The unfavorable positions of stomach are defined as the esophagogastric junction, the proximal cardia of gastric lesser curvature, the pylorus of stomach, the posterior wall of stomach and the antrum of stomach. Exclusion criteria: (1) preoperative chemotherapy or imatinib therapy; (2) diameter of tumor>10 cm; (3) tumor metastasis or concurrence of other malignant tumors. A total of 244 patients (238 in Southwest Hospital and 6 in Minda Hospital) were enrolled, including 122 males and 122 females with age of 41?70years. Operative methods should be adopted according to patients' wishes. There were 146 cases in the laparoscopic surgery group and98 cases in the open surgery group. The intraoperative blood loss, operative time, postoperative first flatus time, postoperative firstfeeding time, average hospital stay, morbidity of postoperative complication,1?,3?,and 5?year recurrence free survival(RFS) and overall survival (OS)rate were compared between the two groups. Results There were no significant differences in sex, age, tumor size, tumor risk grade or growth pattern between the laparoscopic and the open surgery groups (all P>0.05), and these two groups were comparable. Compared with open group, laparoscopic group had less intraoperative blood loss [(31.4 ± 2.3) ml vs. (143.9 ± 3.7) ml, t=292.800, P<0.001], shorter postoperative first flatus time [(2.1 ± 0.7) days vs. (3.8 ± 0.8) days, t=17.550, P<0.001], shorter postoperative first feeding time [(2.1±0.5) days vs.(2.3±1.7) days, t=1.339,P=0.020], shorter hospital stay [(8.6±2.6) days vs. (13.6±3.2) days, t=13.410, P<0.001], and lower morbidity of postoperative complication [16(11.0%) vs. 21(21.4%), χ2=4.996, P=0.025], whose differences were statistically significant. While the operation time was similar in two groups [(124.7±15.8) minutes vs. (120.9±14.5) minutes, t=1.903,P=0.058]. The median follow?up of all the patients was 43 (1 to 119) months.In laparoscopic group and open group, the 1?, 3? and 5?year RFS were 94.5% vs. 93.9%, 91.1% vs. 90.8%,and 82.2% vs. 81.6%, respectively, and 1?, 3?and 5?year OS were 98.6% vs. 95.9%, 95.9% vs. 94.9%,and 91.1% vs. 88.8%, respectively, whose differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Conclusion In the experienced gastrointestinal surgery center, laparoscopic resection of gastric GIST at unfavorable position is safe and feasible, achieving the same efficacy of open surgery.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of proximal gastrectomy with double tract reconstruction (PG?DT) and total gastrectomy with Roux?en?Y reconstruction (TG?RY) for proximal gastric cancer. Methods The retrospective study was conducted. Clinicopathological data of 132 patients with proximal gastric cancer confirmed by pathology who underwent PG?DT (n=51) or TG?RY (n=81) by the same surgeon team in Southwest Hospital of Army Military Medical University between January 2006 and December 2016 were collected. Patients with preoperative neoadjuvant therapy, non?R0 resection and non?adenocarcinoma confirmed by pathology were excluded. Observation indicators included intraoperative (operation time and blood loss); postoperative (time to flatus, hospital stay, total complications, metastasis of lymph nodes around distal side of stomach from cases undergoing TG?RY), follow?up (long?term hemoglobin level, incidence of anemia, and survival) parameters. Survival analysis was conducted using the Kaplan?Meier method, and Log?rank test was used to compare survival difference between two groups. Results No statistically significant differences were found between two groups in the baseline data, including age, gender, BMI, hemoglobin level before operation, postoperative TNM stage, tumor size and histological differentiation between two groups (all P>0.05). There were no significant differences between PG?DT and TG?RY in intraoperative blood loss [200 (200) ml vs. 200 (195) ml, Z=-1.860, P=0.063], time to flatus [(2.7±1.0) days vs. (2.6±1.1) days, t=0.225, P=0.823], postoperative hospital stay [10(3) days vs. 10 (4) days, Z=-0.449, P=0.654] and morbidity of perioperative complications [5.9% (3/51) vs. 8.6% (7/81), χ2=0.081, P=0.775]. Compared with the TG?RY group, PG?DT group had longer total operative time [294 (97) minutes vs. 255 (71) minutes, Z=–3.148, P=0.002]. The hemoglobin data of 42 patients with PG?DT and 56 patients with TG?RY were collected 1 year after operation. The incidence of anemia in PG?DT group was lower than that of TG?RY group [64.2%(27/42) vs. 82.1% (46/56), χ2=4.072, P=0.045], and PG?DT group had higher level of hemoglobin than TG?RY group [(114.4 ± 16.3) g/L vs. (106.6±15.0) g/L, t=2.435, P=0.017]. There were 4 cases (4/81, 4.9%) with metastasis of lymph nodes around distal side of stomach in TG?RY group. All of these 4 tumors were T4 in depth and were more than 5 cm in diameter. The median follow?up period was 26 (1 to 110) months. One?year, 3?year and 5?year survival rates were 93.2%, 65.3% and 55.0% in PG?DT group, and 85.8%, 63.8% and 47.2% in TG?RY group, respectively without significant difference (χ2=0.890, P=0.345). Conclusions Compared with TG?RY, PG?DT has the same safety and feasibility for proximal gastric cancer. Although the operative time is a little longer than TG?RY, PG?DT has advantages in improving the postoperative hemoglobin level.
