Objective:To explore the symptoms of Ménière′s disease patients and their impact on quality of life.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted, consecutively enrolling patients of Ménière′s disease who visited the Otolaryngology Clinic at the Eye & ENT Hospital of Fudan University from October 2014 to December 2022. The Chinese version of the Ménière′s Disease Outcomes Questionnaire (MDOQ) and a Ménière′s disease-specific symptom checklist were utilized for assessment. SPSS 25.0 software was employed to perform multiple linear regression analysis to determine the impact of Ménière′s disease symptoms on patients′ quality of life.Results:A total of 790 patients with a definitive diagnosis of Ménière′s disease who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were analyzed. The cohort comprised 418 males and 372 females, with a mean age of (54.8±13.1) years and a diagnosis duration ranging from 0 to 72 months, with a median of 3 months. The total score of the Chinese MDOQ was 61.0±12.0. The symptomatic presentations of the enrolled patients included hearing changes, tinnitus, aural fullness, drop attacks, vertigo episodes, visual instability, dizziness, and headache. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that age, tinnitus, aural fullness, frequency of drop attacks, visual instability, dizziness, and headache were significant factors affecting the quality of life in Ménière′s disease patients ( F=145.50, P<0.05). Conclusions:The quality of life in Ménière′s disease patients requires improvement. Attention to the specific symptoms of Ménière′s disease and their impact on patients′ quality of life, along with targeted symptom interventions based on these findings, will be a focal point in future disease management.

Objective To observe the human papillomavirus(HPV) prevalence and its distribution character among females in Changzhou and to provide epidemiological data for the prevention of cervical cancer and development of HPV vaccine .Methods The clinical material consisted of 32215 women ,who were from Changzhou Hospital T .C .M ,Changzhou Maternal and Child Health Care ,The Second People's Hospital of Changzhou and Changzhou Wujin Hospital from January 2014 to June 2016 .17 kinds of high-risk subtypes (HPV16 ,18 ,31 ,33 ,35 ,39 ,,45 ,51 ,52 ,53 ,56 ,58 ,59 ,66 ,68 ,73 ,82) and 6 kinds of low-risk subtypes (HPV6 ,11 ,42 ,43 ,81 ,83) were detected .All cases were divided into six groups according to the age (<20 ;>21 to 30;31 to 40 ;41 to 50 ;51 to 60 ;and>61) and the age distribution of women infected with HPV and genotypes of HPV were analyzed .Results Out of 32215 cervical cell specimens ,8396 cases were detected HPV infections with the position rate of 26 .06% .In seventeen types of high-risk HPV ,HPV 16 (4 .55% ) were the most common subtype ,followed by 52 (4 .43% ) ,58 (2 .75% ) ,53 (2 .42% ) ,51 (2 .16% ) ,68 (1 .85% ) ,56 (1 .73% ) ,33 (1 .40% ) ,18 (1 .38% ) ,66 (1 .33% ) ,59 (1 .26% ) ,39 (1 .08% ) ,31 (1 .02% ) ,35 (0 .89% ) ,45 (0 .42% ) ,73 (0 .26% ) ,and 82 (0 .15% ) .Six types of low-risk HPV were detected ,of which HPV 81 (2 .96% ) was the most common subtypes ,followed by 43 (1 .86% ) ,42 (1 .62% ) ,6 (1 .27% ) ,11 (0 .80% ) and 83 (0 .26% ) .Conclusion The predominant genotypes of HPV 16 and ,52 infection in female reproductive tract are the highest .
