Objective:To gain a understanding of the occurrence of cognitive impairment among residents in drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis (drinking water-borne fluorosis) areas, and to study its influencing factors.Methods:In March 2023, a cluster sampling method was used to select local residents aged 18 and above from the drinking water-borne fluorosis areas in Jishan County, Shanxi Province as survey subjects. General demographic data were collected through face-to-face surveys, and a random urine sample was collected once to determine urinary fluoride level. Cognitive function was assessed using the mini-mental state examination (MMSE), and the survey subjects were divided into a cognitive impairment group ( < 27 points) and a control group (27 - 30 points) based on the MMSE scores. A multiple logistic regression model and a decision tree model based on chi-squared automatic interaction detector were constructed to analyze the factors affecting cognitive impairment, and the model fitting effect was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:A total of 3 301 subjects were included in the survey, including 2 081 females and 1 220 males. There were 1 515 subjects < 60 years old and 1 786 subjects ≥60 years old, with urinary fluoride level [ M ( Q1, Q3)] of 2.92 (1.78, 4.54) mg/L. There were 1 939 cases in the cognitive impairment group and 1 362 cases in the control group, with a detection rate of 58.74% (1 939/3 301) for cognitive impairment; and the differences in gender, age, education level, marital status, annual household income, alcohol consumption, smoking distribution, and urinary fluoride level between the two groups were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The results of multiple logistic regression analysis showed that female, ≥60 years, and urinary fluoride > 4.54 mg/L were risk factors for cognitive impairment [ OR (95% CI): 1.25 (1.01, 1.54), 2.66 (2.26, 3.14), 1.32 (1.06, 1.65), P < 0.05]. Education level of primary school or above, annual household income≥12 000 yuan, and mild alcohol consumption were protective factors for cognitive impairment [ OR (95% CI): 0.15 (0.09, 0.25), 0.58 (0.48, 0.68), 0.67 (0.51, 0.87), P < 0.05]. The analysis results of the decision tree model showed that age had the greatest impact on the occurrence of cognitive impairment, followed by annual household income, education level, and urinary fluoride. The areas under the ROC curves of the multiple logistic regression and decision tree model were 0.72 and 0.70 ( P < 0.001), respectively, indicating good model fitting performance. Conclusion:The detection rate of cognitive impairment in residents of drinking water-borne fluorosis areas is relatively high, and age, annual household income, education level, and urinary fluoride are all influencing factors for occurrence of cognitive impairment.

Objective:To study the effect of PAD (presentation-assimilation-discussion) class applied in the standardized residency training of dermatovenereology on improving residents' practical operation ability.Methods:A total of 120 residents taking the standardized residency training of dermatovenereology in the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from November 2018 to December 2020 were selected as the research objects and divided into two groups according to the time order of admission, among which, 60 residents enrolled from November 2018 to November 2019 were selected as the control group, and 60 residents enrolled from December 2019 to December 2020 were selected as the experimental group. The control group adopted the traditional standardized residency training mode, and the experimental group adopted the teaching mode of PAD class. SPSS 22.0 statistical software was used for data analysis. The results of theoretical knowledge assessment and skill operation assessment were compared between the two groups by t test, the evaluation of teaching effect was compared between the two groups by chi-square test, and the satisfaction of teaching was compared between the two groups by rank sum test. Results:The theoretical knowledge [(45.38±4.14) points], skill operation [(42.35±4.32) points] and total score [(88.74± 7.69) points] of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group [(39.62 ± 4.15) points, (36.25±4.27) points, (77.96±7.52) points, respectively], with statistical significance ( P<0.05). The evaluation of teaching effect in the experimental group showed that 49 residents (81.67%) believed that their learning interest had been stimulated; 51(85.00%) improved their self-learning ability; 47(78.33%)improved their ability of analyzing and solving problems; 50(83.33%) improved their doctor-patient communication ability; 49(81.67%) improved their clinical thinking ability; 52(86.67%) improved their teamwork ability; and 50(83.33%) improved their literature retrieval ability. The results of satisfaction showed that the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group in sense of responsibility, teaching methods, teaching contents and self-evaluation. Conclusion:The application of PAD class in the standardized residency training of dermatovenereology plays a positive role in mobilizing the learning enthusiasm of residents and cultivating their independent learning ability, and can significantly improve the practical operation and theoretical awareness of residents.

Objective:To compare the pros and cons of harvesting ear cartilage through anterior and posterior auricular approaches during rhinoplasty.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2018, 63 patients with otochondral rhinoplasty in our hospital were enrolled in this study, 60 were female and 3 were male; the average age was 31.6 years (range, 18 to 43) . They were randomly divided into anterior auricular approach group with 32 cases (64 sides) and posterior auricular approach group with 31 cases (62 sides). Surgical duration, complications and postoperative scar of the two methods were analyzed.Results:The average time for harvesting the ear cartilage through posterior auricular approach and anterior auricular approach was (20.8±1.7) min and (12.6±1.1) min, respectively ( P<0.01). The overall complication rate was 15.6% for posterior auricular approach group and 4.8% for anterior auricular approach group. The wound healed well in both groups, and there was no significant difference in postoperative scar between the two groups during an average 13 months follow-up period. Conclusions:While both the anterior and the posterior auricular approaches present with similar inconspicuous scarring, the use of anterior auricular approach alone to harvest ear cartilage during rhinoplasty provides both the surgeons and the patients with easier access, shorter surgical duration, and fewer complications. Hence, we believe that the anterior auricular approach possesses greater advantages than the posterior auricular approach.

Objective:To detect the infection and subtype status of human papilloma virus (HPV) for patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) treated in a single center in Chaoshan area of Guangdong Province.Methods:The primary lesion samples from 167 HNSCC patients in Cancer Hospital of Shantou University Medical College between December 2014 and December 2016 were collected. The expression of p16 protein in tumor tissues was detected by using immunohistochemistry (IHC), and the positive rate of tumor cell p16 protein≥ 76% was used as a diagnostic standard to judge HPV in HNSCC; the relationship between p16 protein and the clinicopathological factors was analyzed. The status of HPV 16/18 DNA in tumor tissues was tested by using in situ hybridization(ISH). RNA scope was used to detect the RNA expression of 18 kinds of common high-risk HPV subtype (HPV HR 18), and the positive status of HPV HR 18 in tumor tissues with the positive cell proportion ≥ 50% of p16 protein was analyzed.Results:The strong expression rate of p16 protein was 7.2% (12/167). The strong expression rate of p16 protein in the younger group (< 50 years old) was higher than that in the older group (≥ 50 years old) [17.2% (5/29) vs. 5.1% (7/138), χ 2=5.321, P=0.021]. The strong expression rate of p16 protein in the oropharyngeal carcinoma group was higher than that in the non-oropharyngeal carcinoma group [29.4% (5/17) vs. 4.7% (7/150), χ 2=14.019, P < 0.01]. The strong expression rate of p16 protein in the gender, smoking and alcohol consumption, tumor staging and stratification among different patients was not statistically different (all P > 0.05). HPV 16/18 DNA was not found in all HNSCC primary lesions by using ISH, which showed the same result after repeated examination. RNAscope method showed that 3 cases (15.8%) out of the 19 patients with p16 protein positive rate≥50% were HPV HR 18 RNA positive. Conclusions:The positive rate of HPV for HNSCC patients in Chaoshan area is low, while the patients with oropharyngeal carcinoma have the highest rate and tend to be younger. The main carcinogenic viruses of HPV for HNSCC patients in Chaoshan area are other subtypes of HPV including HPV HR 18 rather than HPV 16/18.

OBJECTIVE： To establish the management system for off-label drug use in a medical institutions， and to standardize the behaviors of off-label drug use and improve the rational drug use. METHODS： Based on evidence-based researches for off-label drug use， management system of off-label drug use was established in our hospital， and off-label drug use management was carried out. The effects of management system were evaluated with the number of records for off-label drug use and pass rate of approval as indexes. RESULTS： Since the year of 2011， the management system for off-label drug use had gradually established and improved in our hospital； the mode of registration and approval for off-label drug use was established by based on a multi-disciplinary team management and quality classification for clinical evidence. Up to 2016， a total of 252 records for off-label use were submitted， among which 159 （accounting for 59.77％） were for pediatrics and 93 （accounting for 34.96％） were for gynecology and obstetrics. Among the submitted records， 181 had passed the examination and approval， and the pass rate was 64.29％. Special prescription comments indicated that the numbers of off-label use medical orders in inpatient medical orders showed a downward trend， and the proportion of recorded medical orders of off-label use had increased from 17.33％ in 2013 to 84.00％ in 2016. CONCLUSIONS： The management system for off-label drug use in medical institutions can effectively improve the clinical understanding of off-label drug use， standardize the behavior of off-label drug use.

OBJECTIVE： To explore current hot spots in drug research and application，and provide reference of the draft use standard for pharmacy journal editor.
