Objective:To explore the feasibility of the multiple-choice auditory graphical interactive check（MAGIC） screening module in childhood hearing screening in children aged 3 to 6 years. Methods:A hearing screening was conducted on 366 children（732 ears） aged between 3 and 6 years. The screening methods included MAGIC, DPOAE, and acoustic immittance.The cooperation, screening time, pass rate, and correlation of the three screening methods were compared. Results:There was a statistically significant difference in the degree of cooperation among the three screeningmethods（P=0.004）.The MAGIC pure tone screening method was 98.6%, the screening DPOAE was 99.5%,and the acoustic immittance screening was 100%. For the screening duration, the MAGIC pure tone screening method was（116.3±59.1）s, the screening DPOAE was（27.2±19.7）s, and the acoustic impedance screening was（24.6±14.6）s. There was a significant statistical significance differences among the three or two groups（P<0.01）. The passing rates of MAGIC pure tone screening,screening DPOAE and acoustic immittance screening were 64.7%, 65.4%, and 69.3%, respectively, and there was no significant statistical difference among the three or two groups（P>0.05）. There was no significant difference between MAGIC pure tone screening method and screening DPOAE（P=0.827>0.05）, and acoustic impedance（P=0.653>0.05）, while the difference between screening DPOAE and acoustic impedance was statistically significant（P<0.01）. Conclusion:MAGIC pure sound screening method has good feasibility, can comprehensively reflect the hearing level of screened children, and can be promoted for hearing screening in children aged between 3 and 6 years.

Cervical cancer is one of the most common gynecological malignant tumors,the five-year survival rate decreased significantly in the case of lymph node metastasis and distant metasta-sis,so the development of new anti-cervical cancer drugs is of great significance for the treatment of cervical cancer.Molecular docking technology is one of the most commonly used research methods in computer aided drug design,which is widely used in screening the effective components of drugs,finding the targets of drugs acting on tumors and exploring the mechanism of antineoplastic drugs.This paper reviews the molecular docking technology in the screening of anti-cervical cancer drugs,the determination of anti-tumor targets and the mechanism of anti-cervical cancer,in order to provide more sufficient theoretical basis for the screening of anti-cervical cancer drugs and new drug research and development.

Objective:To analyze the influence of clinicopathological features on the prognosis of anorectal malignant melanoma (AMM), and to establish a more accurate prognosis prediction model.Methods:From January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2018, at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center, the data of 89 patients diagnosed with AMM and underwent operation were retrospectively analyzed. The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to analyze factors affecting the prognosis. Backward elimination was used to select variables, Nomogram prognosis prediction model was established and verified internally, and the consistency index was calculated.Results:Among 89 AMM patients, 65 (73.0%) were female, 78(87.6%) were <70 years old, and the most common tumor location was the rectum (48.3%, n=43), followed by the anal canal (31.5%, n=28) and the anorectal canal (20.2%, n=18). Thirty-eight (42.7%) patients directly received abdominal-perineal resection (APR), 37 patients (41.6%) received interferon-based immunotherapy, and 11 patients (12.4%) received both systemic chemotherapy and immunotherapy. The 3-year disease-specific survival (DSS) rate was 41.6%(37/89), and the 5-year DSS rate was 31.5%(28/89). The results of multivariate Cox analysis showed that age ≥70 years old and T2 stage were risk factors of the prognosis of AMM patients (hazard ratio ( HR)=11.29, 4.83; 95% confidence interval ( CI) 2.89 to 44.13, 1.66 to 14.11; both P<0.01), while neurovascular invasion, immunotherapy treatment, systemic chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy, APR after extensive local resection, directly APR and APR combined with inguinal lymphadenectomy were protective factors of the prognosis ( HR=0.09, 0.23, 0.10, 0.13, 0.26, 0.02; 95% CI 0.02 to 0.34, 0.10 to 0.57, 0.02 to 0.49, 0.03 to 0.52, 0.08 to 0.90, 0.00 to 0.27; all P<0.05). The Nomogram model was further established with age, gender, tumor location, T stage, distant metastasis, medication chemotherapy and surgical treatment. The results of the Nomogram model internal verification indicated that the accuracy of the model in predicting 1-year, 3-year and 5-year DSS was good, and the consistency index was 0.749, which was significantly higher than the consistency index of traditional TNM stage (0.607). Conclusions:Most AMM patients are <70 years old, and the majority of them are female. The common location of AMM is rectum, and many patients receive immunotherapy. Age ≥70 years old and T2 stage are risk factors affecting the prognosis of AMM patients. Neurovascalar invasion, immunotherapy based comprehensive treatment, APR after extensive local resection, directly APR and APR combined with inguinal lymphadenectomy are protective factors of the prognosis. Nomogram prognosis prediction model established based on the clinicopathological features and treatment of AMM patients has higher accuracy and clinical reference value than the traditional TNM stage system.
