[Objective]To investigate the depression status and its influencing factors in HIV/AIDS patients receiving antiviral therapy.[Methods]From July 2022 to September 2022,successive sampling method was used to recruit HIV/AIDS patients receiving antiviral therapy from antiviral treatment institutions in Nanjing,and they were instructed to fill out anonymous questionnaires.The questionnaire collected the basic information of patients,and depression,HIV stigma score and social support level were investigated by Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9),Berger HIV stigma scale(BHSS)and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support(MSPSS).Multivariate Logistic regression was used to an-alyze the influencing factors of depression.[Results]A total of 1879 valid questionnaires were collected in this study,and the detection rate of depression was 50.1%.The results of multivariate logistic analysis showed that compared with patients with middle school or below,the risk of depression was lower for those with postgraduate or above[OR=0.534,95%CI(0.341,0.835),P=0.006].Compared with antiviral therapy duration<1 year,antiviral therapy duration for 1 to 5 years[OR=0.729,95%CI(0.536,0.991)],>5 to 10 years[OR=0.516,95%CI(0.379,0.702)],>10 years[OR=0.603,95%CI(0.375,0.969)]was associated with a lower risk of depression.High level of social support was a protective factor for depression in HIV/AIDS patients compared with middle and low level of social support[OR=0.430,95%CI(0.349,0.530),P<0.001].There was a higher risk of depression with side effects than without side effects[OR=2.260,95%CI(1.833,2.786),P<0.001].The higher the score on the HIV stigma scale,the higher the possibility of depression was.[Conclusion]The detection rate of depression of patients receiving antiviral therapy in Nanjing is high.After starting antivi-ral therapy,we should strengthen the monitoring of side effects and psychological status of patients,carry out psychologi-cal intervention,alleviate psychological problems,and improve the quality of life of patients receiving antiviral therapy.

Objective:To evaluate the risk factors for adjacent vertebral compression fracture (AVCF) after fusion surgery of lumbar canal stenosis in the elderly.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was designed for 297 patients with lumbar canal stenosis who underwent fusion surgery in Hubei Provincial Hospital of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine from January 2017 to December 2020. There were 42 males and 255 females, aged 68-85 years [(76.3±7.2)years]. The patients were divided into AVCF group ( n=67) and non-AVCF group ( n=230) according to with or without the occurrence of AVCF. The indicators recorded were the gender, age, body mass index, education level, number of combined basic diseases, course of the disease, preoperative bone mineral density, intraoperative bleeding volume, number of level fused during operation, postoperative blood transfusion volume, postoperative observation in the ICU, types of postoperative external fixation and time of external fixation. Univariate analysis was conducted to analyze the correlation between above risk factors and AVCF after fusion surgery of lumbar canal stenosis in the elderly. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for the occurrence of AVCF in these patients. Results:In the univariate analysis, age, education level, preoperative bone mineral density, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative blood transfusion volume and postoperative observation in the ICU were correlated with AVCF after fusion surgery of lumbar canal stenosis in the elderly ( P<0.05 or 0.01), while there was no correlation of AVCF with gender, body mass index, number of combined basic diseases, course of the disease, number of level fused during operation, types of postoperative external fixation and time of external fixation (all P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that gender ( OR=4.02, 95% CI 1.35, 12.00, P<0.05), preoperative bone mineral density≤-2.5 SD ( OR=2.01, 95% CI 1.47, 2.75, P<0.01), intraoperative bleeding volume≥475 ml ( OR=1.01, 95% CI 1.00, 1.01, P<0.01) and postoperative blood transfusion volume≥434 ml ( OR=0.99, 95% CI 0.98, 1.00, P<0.01) were significantly associated with AVCF after fusion surgery of lumbar canal stenosis in the elderly. Conclusion:The female, bone mineral density≤-2.5 SD, intraoperative bleeding volume≥476 ml and postoperative blood transfusion volume≥434 ml are independent risk factors for AVCF after fusion surgery of lumbar canal stenosis in the elderly.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and side effect of paclitaxel liposome for neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in locally advanced cervical cancer. Methods: This study were included 265 cervical cancer patients staging Ⅰb2 and Ⅱa2 who underwent paclitaxel-platinum NACT followed by radical surgery from June 2008 to December 2016 in the Cancer Hospital, Peking Union Medical College, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. All patients were classified into two groups with 106 patients in paclitaxel liposome group and 159 patients in traditional paclitaxel group. The difference in clinicopathologic characteristics, efficacy and side effect were analyzed retrospectively between the two groups. Results: (1) Clinicopathologic characteristics: there were no significant difference in clinicopathologic characteristics between the two groups, including age, body mass index, clinical stage, pathological histology, cycles of NACT, combined platinum regimen, lymph-vascular space invasion, lymph node metastasis, deep stromal invasion, and postoperative adjuvant therapy (all P>0.05). (2) Efficacy: after NACT, the overall response occurred in 90 (15 complete response plus 75 partial response) of 106 cases in the paclitaxel liposome group versus 131 (21 complete response plus 110 partial response) of 159 cases in the traditional paclitaxel group without statistical significance (84.9% vs 82.4%; χ²=0.291, P=0.590). A total of 248 patients received surgery after NACT and were evaluable in survival. The 5-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) rate and 5-year overall survival (OS) rate of these patients was 85.1% and 88.2%. The 5-year RFS rate in the paclitaxel liposome group was 85.9% compared with 85.2% in the traditional paclitaxel group, while the corresponding 5-year OS rate was 88.5% and 88.7%, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in efficacy between the two groups (P=0.968, P=0.797). (3) Side effect: the incidence of allergic reaction between the paclitaxel liposome group and the traditional paclitaxel group was 0 versus 1.9% (3/159) without statistical significance (P=0.277). But the incidence of neurotoxicity in the paclitaxel liposome group significantly decreased compared with the traditional paclitaxel group (6.6% vs 15.7%, P<0.05), as well as the incidence of alopecia (67.9% vs 79.2%, P<0.05) and myalgia (17.9% vs 28.9%, P<0.05). However, significant differences were not found in terms of hematological toxicity, gastrointestinal reaction, and hepatic function damage (P>0.05). Conclusion In paclitaxel-platinum NACT of local advanced cervical cancer, paclitaxel liposome can achieve similar efficacy compared with traditional paclitaxel, but paclitaxel liposome is helpful in decreasing the toxicity of neurotoxicity, alopecia and myalgia.

OBJECTIVE:To preliminarily study the stability of 3 pieces of Chinese medicinal formula(CMF)after decoction, and provide reference for guaranteeing storage quality of decocted liquid and improving safety of drug use. METHODS:3 represen-tative formulas of Gegen Huangqin Huanglian decoction(A formula),Wuling powder(B formula)and Didang decoction(C for-mula)from Shanghan Zabing Lun were selected,the decocted liquid were stored under ambient temperature(25 ℃)and refrigerat-ed temperature (4 ℃) after decocting by automatic boiling-machine and packing. The microorganism,precipitation,pH and con-tents of total flavonoids,alkaloid,polysaccharide,total protein after 1,7,14,21,28 d were detected. RESULTS:Compared with the first day,contents of total flavonoids,polysaccharide in formula A at ambient temperature group were significantly in-creased on the 28th(P<0.05),content of polysaccharide in refrigerated temperature group was significantly increased(P<0.05). Content of polysaccharide in formula B at ambient temperature group was significantly decreased(P<0.05). The pH and content of total flavonoids in formula C at ambient temperature group and refrigerated temperature group were significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Other indexes showed no obvious changes during the trial period. CONCLUSIONS:Under ambient temperature and refrigerated temperature,liquid ingredients of above decocted CMF will change when storing for 4 weeks. It indicates that the storage time of decocted CMF should not be more than 3 weeks.

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features and risk factors in patients with mucinous borderline ovarian tumors (MBOT). Methods: From 1999 to 2006, 66 MBOT patients in our hospital with more than ten-year follow-up were enrolled retrospectively. They were re-classified according to the literature. The clinicopathological features of different subgroups, including age, preoperative serum tumor markers, surgical methods, pathological features, surgical pathology staging, as well as the risk factors of recurrence and survival were analyzed. Results: Median age was 39 years in 66 patients. Before the surgery, 33.3% (20/60) patients had elevated CA125 and 51.7% (30/58) had elevated CA199. The accurate rate for fast frozen pathology of resected specimen was 73.4%. 21 patients underwent conservative surgery and 45 patients underwent extensive surgery. 57 patients underwent comprehensive operation and 43 cases (75.4%) resulted in stage Ⅰ. 48 of the 66 patients (72.7%) had intestinal-type tumors (IMBT) and 18 patients (27.3%) had endocervical-like tumors (EMBT). The median follow-up was 150 months. Eight recurrences (12.1%) were identified. The mean time between surgery to the initial recurrence was 26.4 months (13 to 50 months). Recurrence rate of IMBT was higher than that of EMBT (14.6% versus 5.6%) with no significance (P>0.05). All patients with pseudomyxoma had disease recurrence. Recurrence rate of stage Ⅲ patients was significantly higher than that of stage Ⅰ patients (33.3% versus 9.3%, P<0.05). During the follow-up period, tumor-related death occurred in 2 cases with a 10-year survival rate of 95.4%. Kaplan-Meier method and Log Rank analysis showed that clinical staging and peritonealmyxoma were adverse prognostic factors (P<0.05). Although the recurrence rate of patients undergoing conservative surgery was higher than that of patients with extensive surgery (23.8% versus 6.7%, P=0.047), the overall survival was almost the same between these two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions MBOT patients have relatively good prognosis. IMBT are more common than EMBT subtypes, but recurrence rate and patient survival were almost the same between these two groups. Patients with pseudomyxoma was more likely to have disease recurrence. Patients who underwent conservative surgery resulted in higher recurrence rate but did not affect the overall survival of patient. Pseudomyxoma and clinical staging were adverse prognostic factors in MBOT patients.

Objective To investigate the survival and recurrence data after treatment in neuroendocrine carcinoma of the uterine cervix(NECUC)with stageⅠb-Ⅱa, and to analyse its prognostic factors. Methods Thirty-two cases of primary NECUC in early-stage disease treated from Jan. 2005 to Dec. 2013 at Cancer Hospital,Peking Union Medical College,Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were reviewed, and their data of clinicopathologic characteristics were collected and analysed. The median age was 37 years (range, 23-57 years). The distribution by International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) clinical stage:19 cases stageⅠb1, 10 cases stageⅠb2, 1 case stageⅡa1, 2 cases stageⅡa2. Pathologic types: 22 cases of small cell carcinoma, 1 case of atypical carcinoid, 9 cases of mixed carcinoma. The diameter of cervical tumor:12 cases≥4 cm, 20 cases<4 cm. All patients underwent radical hysterectomy and pelvic ± para-aortic lymphadenectomy, and 15 cases of them were preserved unilateral or bilateral ovaries. Pathologic examination showed that 25 cases with cervical deep stromal invasion thickness ≥1/2, 21 cases with lymph-vascular space invasion (LVSI), and 18 cases with pelvic and (or) para-aortic lymph nodes involvement. Ten cases were performed neoadjuvant chemotherapy (range,1-3 cycles), all patients received postoperative chemotherapy (range,3-6 cycles), and 15 patients were treated with radiotherapy after surgery. The follow-up data were updated on Jul. 2014. The median follow-up time was 18 months (range, 7-71 months). A retrospective analysis was conducted to analyse the survival and recurrence data,and to explore the prognostic factors of NECUC. Results Thirteen patients died during the follow-up period. The cumulative progression-free survival (PFS) of 2 and 5 years were respectively 54.2%and 38.1%, and the estimated median PFS was 29 months. The cumulative overall survival (OS) of 2 and 5 years were respectively 56.1%and 44.9%, and the estimated median OS was 31 months. Fourteen cases had recurrence, and the median recurrence time was 9 months (range, 3-30 months). Recurrent or metastatic sites:2 cases in pelvis, 4 cases in liver, 3 cases in lung, 3 cases in adrenal glands, 3 cases in bones, 2 cases in brain, 1 case in pancreas, 1 case in lymph nodes of para-aorta and neck, and 3 cases had metastasis in two or more organs. Thirteen cases with recurrence died of disease, and another one is alive with disease. The univariate analysis showed that lesion size of the cervix and FIGO stage were significant prognostic factors (P<0.01), while age, tumor components, deep invasion in cervical stromal, LVSI, pelvic and (or) para-aortic lymph nodes involvement, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, adjuvant radiotherapy and preserving ovaries were not significantly associated with prognosis(all P>0.05). Conclusion The prognosis of NECUC in early-stage is poor and the lesion size of the cervix and FIGO stage are prognostic factors.

Objective:This study analyzes the clinicopathological characteristics, pathological diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of ovarian small cell carcinoma (SCCO). Methods:The medical records of SCCO patients in the Cancer Hospital of Peking Union Medical College between 2005 and 2012 were reviewed. Results:The mean age of patients was 43. 75 years old (ranging from 17 to 57), two cases were postmenopausal, and one case was less than 30 years old. Twenty-one patients had FIGO stageⅠ, whereas three cases had stageⅢto Ⅳ. Three cases were classified as pulmonary type. Forty-three patients received cytoreductive surgery, and one underwent fertili ty-conserving surgery. All patients were postoperatively treated with platinum-based chemotherapy, whereas three cases received Paclitaxel plus Carboplatin. No patient received adjuvant radiotherapy. One patient died nine months after the initial diagnosis, and one died 12 months after the initial diagnosis. The other two cases remain alive with no evidence of recurrence after follow up at 7 and 30 months after diagnosis. Conclusion:SCCO is a rare ovarian tumor with high malignancy potential and thus has poor prognosis. The clinical manifestations of SCCO resemble those of epithelial ovarian cancer. Immunohistochemistry can be used for differential diagnosis. The standard SCCO treatments are cytoreductive surgery and adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy. The optimal chemotherapy regimen requires further research.

Objective To analyze the clinicopathologic characteristics,treatment and prognostic factors in malignant transformation of mature cystic teratoma(MCT)of ovary.Methods The clinical data of 44 patients with MCT from January 1961 to June 2009 were reviewed.Results The median age of the 44 patients was 48 years(range,16-84 years).Mean tumor size was(16 ±6)cm.Thirty-two cases were diagnosed squamous cell carcinoma(73％,32/44),and 5 of them with the elevated level of serumal squamous cell antigen(SCC-Ag).Three of 37 cases(8％,3/37)were identified with malignant transformation in image examinations.Rapid frozen section examination and multiple-location biopsy were performed in 8 cases,and 5 of them were detected with malignant diseases.Twenty-two patients with disease confined within the unilateral ovary(10 with intact capsule,and 12 with ruptured capsule).Diseases extended extra ovaries in the others 22 patients.The median cumulative overall survivals were 126 and 10 months,respectively.The difference between the two groups was significant(P ＜ 0.01).Twenty-seven patients had no residual tumor after primary surgery.The median cumulative overall survivals between the patients with and without residual tumor were 10 and 84 months respectively,and there were significant difference between two groups(P ＜ 0.01).Seven selected patients with malignant disease confined within unilateral ovary underwent fertility-sparing surgery,and 2 cases of them had successful pregnancies and delivery,while other 4 cases with ruptured capsule recurred.Conclusions The most common pathology type of malignant transformation in mature cystic teratoma of the ovary is squamous cell carcinoma.Comprehensive pre-operation image examination and tumor marker level detection might be of great help in diagnosis.Tumor extension extraovary and residual tumor after surgery are the most significant poor prognostic factors.Early stage patient with ruptured capsule should be very discreet to choose fertility-sparing surgery.

Objective To analyze the disease-free survival (DFS) and prognostic factors for stage Ⅰ_b cervical squamous cell carcinoma treated by radical hysterectomy. Methods From January 1999 to December 2005, a total of 206 patients with uterus cervical squamous cell carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients were treated by type 3 hysterectomy and pelvic and/or para-aortic lymphadenectomy at Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. The diseases were stage Ⅰ_(B1) and Ⅰ_(B2)= in 103 patients each. Seventy-nine (76.7%) patients had preoperative radiotherapy and 111 (53. 9%) had postoperative adjuvant treatment (PosAT). Prognostic factors were analyzed using univariate model and multivariate Cox model. Results The follow-up rate was 92. 7%. 106 patients had following-up time of five years. The overall 5-year survival rate and the disease-free survival rate of stage Ⅰ_b,Ⅰ_(B1) and Ⅰ_(B2) were 96. 3% and 86. 8%, 100% and 94. 6%, 92. 2% and 77.9%, respectively. Univariate predictors of DFS included tumor size (FIGO stage, 77.9% : 94. 6% ; Χ~2 = 5. 58, P = 0. 018), lympho-vascular space involvement (LVSI, 74.6% : 89. 8% ; Χ~2 = 10. 44, P =0. 001), vaginal involvement (purely fornix involvement was not included disease, 50% : 87. 9% ; Χ~2 = 7.01,P = 0. 008), parametrial involvement (PI, Χ~2 = 17.69 ,P = 0. 000), and metastatic lymph nodes (LNM) > 2 (Χ~2 = 21.47, P = 0. 000) in stage Ⅰ_b disease, while LVSI (Χ~2 =6. 35,P =0. 012), PI (Χ~2 =90.00,P =0. 000) and LNM >2(Χ~2 =26. 27,P = 0. 000) in stage Ⅰ_(B1) disease, LVSI (Χ~2=10. 12,P =0. 001), cervical canal involvement (Χ~2 =4. 60,P = 0.032), vaginal involvement (Χ~2 =5.87,P=0.015), PI (Χ~2 =4.78,P=0.029) and LNM >2(Χ~2= 6. 72, P = 0. 010) in stage Ⅰ_(B2) disease. In multivariate analysis, FIGO stage (Χ~2 = 4. 73 ,P =0. 030), LVSI (Χ~2 = 9. 81, P = 0. 002), and LNM > 2 (Χ~2 = 6. 30, P = 0. 012) were significantly associated with DFS in stage Ⅰ_b, while LVSI (Χ~2 = 6. 38, P = O. 012) and LNM > 2 (Χ~2 = 3.92, P = 0. 048) were significantly associated with DFS in stage Ⅰ_(B2)-Conclusions LVSI is an important prognostic factor for stage Ⅰ_(B1) cervical cancer. PosAT reduces the recurrences in stage Ⅰ_(B2) desease. When PosAT is needed, preoperative radiotherapy can not improve DFS. PosAT should not be commonly used for stage Ⅰ_(B1) disease with only deep muscularis invasion.
