Objective: To understand the awareness and service utilization of HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and postexposure prophylaxis (PEP) among the young students aged 15-24 in Hefei, so as to provide reference for the prevention and treatment of AIDS among young students in the future. Methods: From May to June 2022, a stratified random cluster sampling method was used to select two different types of universities(undergraduate and vocational colleges) in Hefei, and a crosssectional survey was conducted among the 916 young students at the selected schools. The Chisquare test was used for statistical analysis. Results: Among the surveyed young students, 88.4% had heterosexual orientation, and 12.4% had sexual behavior including 8.8% of homosexual sexual behavior and 91.2% of heterosexual sexual behavior. The rate of condom use was 70.0% in the last homosexual intercourse, and the rate of condom use was 83.7% in the last heterosexual intercourse. About 41.9% of young students heard of PrEP, and the proportions of young students who knew about PrEP, consulted PrEP and used PrEP were 43.0%, 15.9% and 9.4% respectively. About 38.3% of young students had heard of PEP, and the proportions of young students who knew about PEP, consulted PEP and used PEP were 18.2%, 15.4% and 6.0%. Conclusions The awareness rate and utilization rate of PrEP and PEP among young students in Hefei are relatively low. PrEP and PEP publicity should be combined with education of HIV knowledge, and enhance the awareness rate of the young students, in order to reduce the risk of AIDS infection among young students with highrisk behaviors.

Objective: To investigate the awareness, sexual behavior characteristics and infection status of AIDS among male floating population in Anhui Province, so as to provide insights into formulating prevention and control measures for male floating population. Methods: Male floating population of three occupations including construction workers, enterprise workers, and business operators in Wuhu, Tongling, Hefei, and Fuyang cities were selected using stratified cluster random method from April to August 2021. Demographic information, knowledge of AIDS and high-risk behaviors were collected through questionnaires surveys. The results of HIV, syphilis and hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody testing were collected through laboratory tests. Awareness rate of AIDS knowledge, sexual behavior characteristics, and positive rates of HIV, syphilis, and HCV among male floating population of different occupations were analyzed. Results: A total of 1 616 people were enrolled, including 1 016 construction workers (62.87%), 253 enterprise workers (15.66%) and 347 business operators (21.47%), and had a mean age of (40.63±12.32) years. The overall awareness rate of AIDS knowledge among male floating population was 89.54%, the awareness rates of business operators, construction workers, and enterprise workers were 98.33%, 88.29% and 82.61%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The proportions of consistent condom use during sexual intercourse with a spouse or cohabitant, during commercial sexual encounters, and with casual partners in the past year were 7.15% (91/1 273), 64.00% (16/25) and 50.00% (8/16), respectively. The proportions of construction workers, enterprise workers, and business operators who used condoms every time they had sexual behavior with their spouses/cohabitants in the past year were 4.54%, 11.63%, and 15.60%, respectively, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). One case of HIV, one case of syphilis, and three cases of HCV antibody were detected. Conclusion The overall awareness rate of AIDS knowledge among the male floating population in Anhui Province is relatively high, but unsafe sex behaviors exist, which may lead to the risk of HIV infection.

Objective:To investigate the genetic subtypes and drug resistance monitoring of newly reported human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection/AIDS virus in Anhui Province from 2020 to 2023.Methods:An observational design study was used to collect blood samples from patients diagnosed with HIV/AIDS in the AIDS Prevention and Control Department of Anhui Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention from January 2020 to December 2023.The HIV-1 pol gene was amplified by reverse transcription-nested PCR, and the genetic subtypes were identified by phylogenetic tree analysis using MEGA 7.0 software. The mutation sites of drug resistance were analyzed by the online software tool of Stanford University′s HIV Drug resistance database. The influencing factors of drug resistance before treatment were analyzed by multivariate logistic analysis.Results:A total of 335 plasma samples were collected, and 332 HIV-1 pol gene sequences were obtained successfully. The main gene subtypes were CRF01-AE, accounting for 35.55% (118/332), followed by CRF07-BC, B and B+C types [29.22% (97/332), 11.74% (39/332), 9.93% (33/332)]. The total drug resistance rate before treatment was 30.12%(32/100), and the drug resistance rate of protease inhibitor (PIs) in HIV-1 was 6.33% (21/332). The drug resistance rate of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) before treatment was 6.33% (21/332). The drug resistance rate of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) before treatment was 17.47% (58/332).The comparison of drug resistance rate of different drug types showed statistical significance ( χ2=30.435, P<0.05).Among the 100 cases of drug resistance, the main mutation point of HIV-1 protease inhibitor was Q58E (21.00%), and the main mutation point of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor was M184V/I (6.00%). Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor resistance mutation points mainly K103N (22.00%).There were statistically significant differences in the starting time of antiviral therapy, the number of CD4 +T cells at baseline and the drug resistance rate of gene subtypes (the chi-square values are respectively 24.152, 32.516, 11.652, P<0.05).Multivariate logistic analysis showed that the baseline CD4 +T cell count was <200/μl, subtype B, subtype B+C, CRF01-AE subtype, CRF55-01B subtype and 01-BC subtype was the influential factor of drug resistance before treatment (the chi-square values are respectively 4.577, 8.202, 4.416, 5.206, 7.603 and 4.804, P<0.05). Conclusion:The newly reported HIV/AIDS population in Anhui Province from 2020 to 2023 has a variety of viral gene subtypes, and NNRTIs are the main types of drug resistance gene mutations before treatment. Attention should be paid to the number of baseline CD4 +T cells, the duration of antiviral treatment, and the distribution of gene subtypes to reduce the drug resistance of HIV/AIDS patients before treatment.

Objective To analyze the correlation between the drug resistance rate of common pathogens in blood culture of inpatients from the First Hospital Affiliated to Hebei North University from 2019 to 2021 and the frequency of antimicrobial drug use (DDDs). Methods Strains isolated from positive blood cultures of inpatients from 2019 to 2021 were collected, and data on antimicrobial drug use in patients with positive blood cultures during the same period were also collected. WHONET 5.6 software and Pearson correlation analysis were used to explore the correlation between pathogenic bacterial resistance rate and antimicrobial DDDs. Results A total of 916 samples tested positive in blood cultures from 2019 to 2021. Among the top antimicrobial drugs in DDDs, the DDDs of cefazolin, cefuroxime, and ceftazidime all showed an upward trend year by year (the increase from 2019 to 2021 was 38.8%, 228.3%, and 87.1%, respectively). A total of 739 pathogenic bacteria strains were isolated from positive blood culture samples from 2019 to 2021, and the top five pathogenic bacteria were Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, accounting for 37.2%, 16.1%, 8.1%, 7.4%, and 6.5%, respectively. The drug resistance rates of Escherichia coli to cefazolin, ceftazidime, cefotaxime, and polymyxin B were positively correlated with their DDDs (r=0.961, 0.907, 0.988, 0.997, P < 0.05). The drug resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae to piperacillin, cefazolin, cefotaxime, cefepime, aztreonam, imipenem, meropenem, levofloxacin, and polymyxin B were positively correlated with their DDDs (r=0.766, 0.772, 0.838, 0.667, 0.734, 0.821, 0.904, 0.980, 0.997, P < 0.05). The drug resistance rate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to gentamicin was positively correlated with their DDDs (r=0.878, P < 0.05). The drug resistance rate of Acinetobacter baumannii to moxifloxacin was positively correlated with its DDDs (r=0.856, P < 0.05). However, there was no correlation between the drug resistance rates of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis to most commonly used antimicrobial drugs and antimicrobial DDDs (P>0.05). Conclusion The pathogenic bacteria causing bloodstream infections in inpatients at the First Hospital Affiliated to Hebei North University from 2019 to 2021 are complex and diverse (mainly Gram-negative bacteria). The overall drug resistance rate of pathogenic bacteria shows an upward trend, and there is a correlation between the drug resistance rates of most pathogenic bacteria and antimicrobial DDDs.

Objective:To study the relationship between serum osteopontin and osteopontin and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated with coronary heart disease, and to evaluate the correlation between the levels of serum osteopontin and osteopontin with the severity of coronary artery lesions in T2DM patients.Methods:A total of 100 T2DM patients who were suspected to have stable coronary heart disease and underwent coronary angiography from November 2019 to December 2020 were selected from the Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical College, according to coronary angiography results, 60 patients with confirmed coronary heart disease were classified as the case group and 40 patients with non-coronary heart disease were classified as the control group for retrospective analysis. The clinical data and biochemical indicators of all patients were recorded, and Gensini score was calculated. The concentration of osteopontin and osteopontin in serum was quantitatively determined by double-antibody enzyme linked immunosorbent assay method. Independent sample t-test was used to compare the mean of normal distribution measurement data between the two groups. The non normal distribution data are represented by M ( Q1, Q3), and Mann Whitney U test is used for comparison between groups. Composition comparison between count data groups χ 2 inspection. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between serum osteopontin and osteopontin and Gensini score in patients with T2DM. Results:Univariate analysis showed that serum osteopontin and osteopontin were (13.076(8.433, 23.552) μg/L) and (0.437(0.300, 0.630) μg/L) significantly higher in the case group than in the control group (6.367(4.605, 9.048) μg/L) and (0.299(0.196, 0.399) μg/L) respectively, with statistically significant differences ( Z=5.12, 3.28, all P<0.001). Multi-factor logistic regression analysis showed that osteoprotegerin ( OR=2.887, 95% CI:1.850-8.515, P=0.024) and osteopontin ( OR=13.109, 95%CI: 2.557-67.204, P=0.002) were associated with T2DM combined with coronary heart disease, and the risk of T2DM combined with coronary heart disease increased with higher levels of osteoprotegerin and osteopontin. Spearman correlation analysis showed that serum osteopontin and osteoprotegerin were positively correlated with Gensini score in T2DM patients ( r=0.591, 0.467; all P<0.05). Conclusion:Serum osteopontin and osteoprotegerin are associated with T2DM combined with coronary heart disease, and high serum osteopontin and osteoprotegerin are risk factors for T2DM combined with coronary heart disease; serum osteopontin and osteoprotegerin are positively correlated with the degree of coronary artery disease in T2DM patients.

Objective: To understand the perceptions, attitudes and treatment selection of Chinese surgeons on the "watch and wait" strategy for rectal cancer patients after achieving a clinical complete response (cCR) following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT). Methods: A cross-sectional survey was used in this study. Selection of subjects: (1) Domestic public grade III A (provincial and prefecture-level) oncology hospitals or general hospitals possessing the radiotherapy department and the diagnosis and treatment qualifications for colorectal cancer. (2) Surgeons of deputy chief physician or above. Using the "Questionnaire Star" online survey platform to create a questionnaire about cognition, attitude and treatment choice of the "watch and wait" strategy after cCR following nCRT for rectal cancer. The questionnaire contained 32 questions, such as the basic information of doctor, the current status of rectal cancer surgery, the management of pathological complete remission (ypCR) after nCRT for rectal cancer, the selection of examination items for diagnosis of cCR, the selection of suitable people undergoing "watch and wait" approach, the nCRT mode for promotion of cCR, the choice of evaluation time point, the willingness to perform "watch and wait" approach and the treatment choice, and the risk and monitoring of "watch and wait" approach. A total of 116 questionnaires were sent to the respondents via WeChat between January 31 and February 19, 2019. Statistical analysis was performed using Fisher′s exact test for categorical variables. Results: Forty-eight hospitals including 116 surgeons meeting criteria were enrolled, of whom 77 surgeons filled the questionnaire with a response rate of 66.4%. "Watch and wait" strategy was carried out in 76.6% (59/77) of surgeons. Seventy surgeons (90.9%) were aware of the ypCR rate of rectal cancer after preoperative nCRT and 49 surgeons (63.6%) knew the 3-year disease-free survival of patients with ypCR in their own hospitals. Fifty-five surgeons (71.4%) believed that patients with ypCR undergoing radical surgery met the treatment criteria and were not over-treated. Three most necessary examinations in diagnosing cCR were colonoscopy (96.1%, 74/77), digital rectal examination (DRE) (90.9%,70/77) and DWI-MRI (83.1%, 64/77). Responders preferred to consider a "watch and wait" strategy for patients with baseline characteristics as mrN0 (77.9%, 60/77), mrT2 (68.8%, 53/77) and well-differentiated adenocarcinoma (68.8%, 53/77). Sixty-six surgeons (85.7%) believed that long-term chemoradiotherapy (LCRT) with combination or without combination of induction and/or consolidation of the CapeOX regimen (capecitabine + oxaliplatin) should be the first choice as a neoadjuvant therapy to achieve cCR. Forty-one surgeons (53.2%) believed that a reasonable interval of judging cCR after nCRT should be ≥ 8 weeks. Forty-four surgeons (57.1%) routinely, or in most cases, informed patient the possibility of cCR and proposed to "watch and wait" strategy in the initial diagnosis of patients with non-metastatic rectal cancer. Thirteen surgeons (16.9%) would take the "watch and wait" strategy as the first choice after the patient having cCR. Fifty-two surgeons (67.5%) would be affected by the surgical method, that was to say, "watch and wait" approach would only be recommended to those patients who would achieve cCR and could not preserve the anus or underwent difficult anus-preservation surgery. Sixteen surgeons (20.8%) demonstrated that "watch and wait" strategy would not be recommended to patients with cCR regardless of whether the surgical procedure involved anal sphincter. Eleven surgeons (14.3%) believed that the main risk of "watch and wait" approach came from distant metastasis rather than local recurrence or regrowth. Twenty-nine of surgeons (37.7%) did not understand the difference between "local recurrence" and "local regrowth" during the period of "watch and wait". Twenty-six surgeons (33.8%) thought that the monitoring interval for the first 3 years of "watch and wait" strategy was 3 months, and the follow-up monitoring interval could be 6 months to 5 years. Surgeons from cancer specialist hospitals had higher approval rate, notification rate, and referral rate of "watch and wait" strategy than those from general hospitals. Thirty-one surgeons (42.5%) considered that the difficulty and concern of carrying out "watch and wait" approach in the future was the disease progress leading to medical disputes. Twenty-six surgeons (35.6%) demonstrated that their concern was lack of uniform evaluation standard for cCR. Conclusions Chinese surgeons seem to have inadequate knowledge of non-operative management for rectal cancer patients achieving cCR after nCRT and show relatively conservative attitudes toward the strategy. Chinese consensus needs to be formed to guide the non-operative management in selected patients. Chinese Watch & Wait Database (CWWD) is also needed to establish and provide more evidence for the use of alternative procedure after a cCR following nCRT.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize and analyze the postoperative short-term complications of laparoscope-assisted transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) for rectal cancer patients after neoadjuvant therapy. METHODS: A prospectively established database on taTME patients at Peking University Cancer Hospital was screened with the following conditions: data retrieval from June 2016 to August 2018, pathologically confirmed adenocarcinoma, receiving preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy or chemotherapy. The transabdominal procedure and the transanal procedure were performed simultaneously in the taTME operation. Occurrence of complications during perioperative period (within postoperative 3 months) in these patients, especially anastomosis-related complications and their management were analyzed. The relevant complications were recorded according to the Clavien-Dindo (CD) grading criteria. The severity of anastomotic leakage and anastomotic stenosis was evaluated according to criteria developed by the International Rectal Cancer Research Group. RESULTS: A total of 29 patients were enrolled in this study. In the 29 patients, 25 (86.2%) were male and 4 (13.8%) were female, the median age was 60 (range, 30 to 72) years, the median body mass index was 25.8 (range, 19.8 to 36.4) kg/m, the median distance from the tumor to anal verge was 4 (range, 2 to 8) cm. All the patients completed laparoscope-assisted taTME operations successfully without conversion to laparotomy, intra-operative severe complication or death. The median operation time was 300 (range, 198 to 405) minutes, and the median intra-operative blood loss was 100 (range, 50 to 200) ml. All the TME specimens were complete according to the Nagtegaal standard. All the patients underwent prophylactic ileostomy. Hartmann procedure was performed in one case due to poor blood supply in the proximal bowel without the possibility of anastomosis. Anal sphincter preservation rate was 96.6% (28/29). The median postoperative exhaust time was 2 (range, 1 to 10) days, and the median postoperative hospital stay was 9 (range, 7 to 24) days. Fifteen patients (51.7%) had postoperative complications, among which serious complication (CD grade IIIb and above) accounted for 6.9% (2/29). No perioperative death was observed. Five patients (17.2%) presented anastomosis-related complications, including 2 cases of grade C anastomotic leakage due to anastomotic rupture, who underwent abdominal perineal resection 1 month after operation; 2 cases of grade B anastomotic leakage, who improved after conservative treatment; 1 case of grade A anastomotic stenosis, who improved with anal expansion 1 month after operation. The incidence of postoperative infection was 24.1% (7/29), including 6 cases of pelvic infection and 1 case of trocar site infection, all of which were CD grade II. One case had incomplete intestinal obstruction (CD grade II); 1 case had gastroplegia; 1 case had abdominal trocar hernia. All the patients were followed up for a median of 12.0 (range, 3.9 to 29.9) months. Seven cases did not undergo ileal stoma closure. The anal sphincter preservation rate was 75.9% (22/29). CONCLUSION Pelvic infection and anastomosis-related complications are common after laparoscope-assisted taTME surgery for rectal cancer patients following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, which require active management and appropriate treatment.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of articular compression molding techniques in the surgery for acetabular posterior wall fracture. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted of the 28 patients (28 hips) with fracture of acetabular posterior wall plus comminuted compression of articular surface who had been treated using the articular compression molding techniques at Department of Orthopedics, The Hospital of 81 Group Army of PLA from January 2014 to January 2018. They were 25 males and 3 females, aged from 26 to 63 years (average, 49.3 years). The time from injury to surgery ranged from 4 to 12 days (average, 7.8 days). According to the Letournel-Judet classification, all were single element (simple) posterior wall fractures combined with posterior dislocation of the femoral head and articular compression of different degrees; transient sciatic nerve injury was complicated in 12 cases. The posterior hip dislocations were timely and successful reset at emergency treatment. The compression fractures of the posterior wall and hip joint were treated by open reduction and internal fixation via the acetabular posterior (K-L) approach. The articular compression was treated by 4 stabilization techniques: absorbable screwing and blocking technique in 10 cases, indwelling screwing in 12 cases, indwelling Kirschner wiring in 2 cases and die push and squeeze tamping in 4 cases. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding and complications were recorded. The therapeutic efficacy was evaluated by the modified Merle d’Aubigne & Postel scoring criteria at the final follow-up. Results: The operation time lasted from 76 to 118 minutes (average, 94.2 minutes); the intraoperative bleeding ranged from 100 to 320 mL (average,220.8 mL). No incision liquefaction, infection or other complications occurred. The 28 patients were followed up for 10 to 36 months (average, 17.6 months). According to the Matta scoring criteria, 24 cases achieved anatomical reduction but 4 dissatisfactory reduction. By the modified Merle d’Aubigne & Postel scoring criteria at the final follow-up, the efficacy was evaluated as excellent in 26 cases and as good in 2. Heterotopic ossification was observed in 3 cases and microscopic free dense shadow in the joint cavity (about 2 mm in the round ligament) in 3 cases. There were no cases of obvious traumatic arthritis or osteoarthritis, femoral head necrosis, walking pain, lameness or hip abduction weakness. The 12 patients complicated with preoperative transient sciatic nerve injury recovered within 3 months after surgery. Conclusion The articular compression molding techniques can effectively treat severely comminuted articular compression in the acetabular posterior wall fracture and improve reduction of articular surface and hip joint matching, leading to stability and good joint function.

Objective: To explore the clinical effect of minimally invasive treatment of C type pilon fracture with single main plate combined with multiple planar screws for supporting fixation. Methods: From January 2013 to March 2017, data of 22 patients treated by minimally invasive treatment with single main plate combined with multiple planar screws for supporting fixa-tion were retrospectively analyzed. There were 17 males and 5 females, aged from 23 to 69 years (average, 51.2 years). All cases were closed fractures involving fibula including weight hitting (5 cases), traffic accident (7 cases) and fall injury (10 cases). There were 3 cases of 43-C1 type, 11 cases of 43-C2 type and 8 cases of 43-C3 type according to AO/OTA classification. According to the Rüedi-Allgöwer classification, there were 5 cases of type Ⅱ and 17 cases of type Ⅲ. Complications were recorded postopera-tively and the articular surface reduction was evaluated using the Burwell-Charnley score. At the last follow-up, Tornetta’s pilon fracture clinical treatment outcome criteria was used to evaluate ankle joint function. Results: All the patients were followed up for 13 to 25 months (average, 17.3 months). There were 20 cases of anatomical reduction, 1 case of fair reduction and 1 case of poor reduction according to the Burwell-Charnley score. All the 22 patients were healed with healing time of 3 to 6 months (aver-age, 4.8 months). The efficacy was evaluated according to the evaluation criteria of the clinical treatment results of pilon fracture by Tornetta: excellent in 8 cases, good in 10 cases, fair in 3 cases, and poor in 1 case. The excellent and good rate was 81.8% (18/22) . All patients had no complications such as wound edge blistering, skin necrosis and infection. Among them, 1 case of internal fixa-tion rejection occurred, and the incision was well healed after removal of the internal fixation after 3 months. Conclusion Mini-mally invasive treatment of C type pilon fracture with single main plate combined with multiple planar screws for supporting fixa-tion not only provides a better anatomical reduction of the articular surface, but also effectively reduces or even avoids incision complications. The long-term clinical results are satisfactory.
