Through reviewing literature on thyroid cancer management strategies, this article discusses the problems of active monitoring strategies, the real implementation status, and the hidden dangers of thermal ablation as a downgrade treatment. It points out that further research is needed to accurately identify low-risk PTMCs and implement active monitoring methods. The improvement in the 5-year survival rate of thyroid cancer is due to standardized diagnosis and treatment. At present, it is still too early to downgrade the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid cancer in China. The World Health Organization recommends the three early principles of early detection, early diagnosis, and early treatment for the treatment of malignant tumors as the fundamental principles of thyroid cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To explore changes in high-risk sexual behaviors and associated factors in HIV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM) in industrial workers, and provide evidence for designing behavioral interventions for this population.Methods:In this observational study, HIV-infected MSM were recruited in industrial workers using convenient sampling during August to September 2021. The sample size was estimated to be 530. A questionnaire was used and combined with routine follow-up to collect socio-demographic characteristics, high-risk sexual behaviors, partner notification, viral load testing and history of sexually transmitted diseases before and after diagnosis of HIV infection. The χ2 test was used to analyze the changes in high-risk sexual behaviors before and after diagnosis and logistic regression was conducted to identify factors associated with high-risk sexual behaviors. Results:A total of 560 HIV-infected MSM in industrial workers were recruited in this study. Of whom, 32.1% (180/560) had unprotected anal intercourse (UAI) within 12 months after diagnosis . The proportions of those having UAI with casual, commercial and regular same-sex partners significantly decreased from 73.4% (381/519), 75.1% (187/249) and 69.5% (207/298) within 12 months before diagnosis to 36.2% (146/403), 40.2% (86/214) and 34.2% (67/196) within 12 months after diagnosis , respectively. Educational level of college or above (a OR=0.41, 95% CI:0.23-0.71), passive anal sex (a OR=0.40, 95% CI:0.19-0.85), both active and passive anal sex after diagnosis (a OR=0.40, 95% CI:0.20-0.83) and no unprotected oral sex (a OR=0.02, 95% CI:0.01-0.05) were negatively associated with UAI within 12 months after diagnosis. Whereas, not considering necessary to use condom consistently after having repeated undetectable viral load (a OR=3.02, 95% CI:1.37-6.69) was positively associated with UAI within 12 months after diagnosis. Conclusions:Compared with that before diagnosis of HIV infection, although the prevalence of UAI seemed to decrease in HIV-infected MSM in industrial workers after diagnosis, nearly one third of them had high-risk sexual behaviors. Therefore, relevant interventions should be strengthened to reduce high-risk sexual behaviors.

Objective:To explore the cognition of the "undetectable equals untransmittable" ("U=U") concept and associated factors among HIV-infected men who have sex with men (MSM) receiving antiviral treatment (ART) in Shenzhen, and provide evidence for designing promotion and advocacy strategies for the "U=U" concept.Methods:We recruited HIV-infected MSM receiving ART using convenient sampling method combined with routine follow-up in Shenzhen through conducting observational survey. The sample size was estimated to be 475. A questionnaire was administered to collect socio-demographic characteristics, sexual behaviors, ART, viral load testing and the cognition towards "U=U" in HIV-infected MSM. Logistic regression was used to access factors associated with acceptance of "U=U".Results:A total of 490 HIV-infected MSM receiving ART were recruited. Of whom, 60.2% (295/490) were aware of "U=U" and 50.6% (248/490) accepted "U=U". Multiple logistic regression showed that participants who had an educational level of college or above (a OR=1.76,95% CI: 1.12-2.75) were more likely to accept "U=U". Those who had no local residency (a OR=0.51,95% CI: 0.29-0.92), had viral load >0 copies/ml in the last testing (a OR=0.61,95% CI: 0.38-0.98) and were unaware of "U=U" (a OR=0.13, 95% CI: 0.09-0.21), were less likely to accept "U=U". Conclusions:HIV-infected MSM receiving ART had a low cognition level of "U=U" in Shenzhen. Promotion and advocacy on this concept through healthcare workers should be enhanced in combination with routine follow-up in order to improve their ART adherence and outcome of treatment. Furthermore, developing related guidelines on "U=U" according to the characteristics of HIV-infected individuals is warranted to improve the normalization of promotion and advocacy on "U=U".

Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical distribution and changes in antimicrobial resistance profiles of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Methods We collected clinical specimens of S. aureus from The First Hospital of China Medical University. The Vitek-2 and BD Phoenix 100 were performed for bacterial identification and drug sensitivity tests,and WHONET 5.6 was used to analyze the data. Results From 2007 to 2016,there were 3 377 unrepeatable strains of S. aureus,including 1 705 that were methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA). The isolation rate of S. aureus was 9.4 % and of these,50.5 % were MRSA. There were 776 S. aureus specimens from outpatients or the emergency department,including 16.8 % MRSA,and 2 011 S. aureus from inpatient departments,including 60.2 % MRSA. The main sources of specimens were sputum (41.8 %),pus (17.9 %),and body secretions (17.5 %). The average resistance rates of MRSA for erythromycin,ofloxacin,ciprofloxacin,gentamycin,and tetracycline were higher than 75.0 %. The average resistance rate of methicillin sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) for erythromycin was up to 76.8 %,and for tetracycline,gentamycin,ciprofloxacin,and ofloxacin,were less than 25.0 %. In 10 years,the average resistance rates of MRSA and MSSA for 11 kinds of common antibiotics had no obvious change. Conclusion The constituent rate of MRSA was high in The First Hospital of China Medical University,especially from the areas that were not sterile,suggesting that clinicians should pay attention to the identification of infection and sources for MRSA,which were from such areas. Hospital infection control should be focused on at the same time,in order to reduce the incidence of MRSA.

China Modern Doctor 2015;53(35):48-51
Objective To analyze the application of trans-abdominal chorionic villus sampling in the prenatal diagnosis in the first trimester. Methods A total of 70 patients with single birth and indication of invasive prenatal diagnosis in our hospital from November 2013 to January 2015 were selected. 30 pregnant women in the first trimester was given trans-abdominal chorionic villus sampling (TA-CVS), and 40 pregnant women in the second trimester was given am-niocentesis. Surgery successful rate and pregnancy loss rate were calculated in the two groups. Results In the 30 preg-nant women undergone TA-CVS, chromosome abnormality was detected in 15 cases and induced labor was carried out for all (including 1 case of stillbirth by re-examination 1 week after the surgery of trisomy-21), including 5 cases of trisomy-21, 3 cases of trisomy-13, 5 cases of 45 XO and 2 cases of trisomy-18. The rest of pregnant women with nor-mal testing results of chromosome were traced and observed until delivery. Complications such as placental hematoma, vaginal bleeding and discharge and infants' acromesomelic dysplasia were not seen in the 30 pregnant women. Com-pared with the 40 cases receiving amniocentesis, the surgery successful rate was 100%, and the pregnancy loss rate was 3.33%, and the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion Amniocentesis should be performed in 18 weeks. Therefore, TA-CVS is able to detect the problem in early stage, so as to alleviate pregnant women's emo-tional and mental pressure. TA-CVS in the first trimester is an early, safe, accurate and reliable invasive technology for prenatal diagnosis. Successful surgery in real practice depends on various aspects.
