OBJECTIVES: Cervical cancer is the most common malignant tumor in the female reproductive system worldwide. The recurrence rate for the treated cervical cancer patients is high, which seriously threatens women's lives and health. At present, the risk prediction study of cervical cancer has not been reported. Based on the influencing factors of cervical cancer recurrence, we aim to establish a risk prediction model of cervical cancer recurrence to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of cervical cancer recurrence. METHODS: A total of 4 358 cervical cancer patients admitted to the Hunan Cancer Hospital from January 1992 to December 2005 were selected as research subjects, and the recurrence of cervical cancer patients after treatment was followed up. Univariate analysis was used to analyze the possible influencing factors. Variables that were significant in univariate analysis or those that were not significant in univariate analysis but may be considered significant were included in multivariate Cox regression analysis to establish a cervical cancer recurrence risk prediction model. Line graphs was used to show the model and it was evaluated by using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration plots, and decision curve analysis. RESULTS: Univariate analysis showed that the recurrence rates of cervical cancer patients with different age, age of menarche, parity, miscarriage, clinical stage, and treatment method were significantly different (all P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that RR=-0.489×(age≥55 years old)+0.481×(age at menarche >15 years old)+0.459×(number of miscarriages≥3)+0.416×(clinical stage II)+0.613×(clinical stage III/IV)+0.366×(the treatment method was surgery + chemotherapy) + 0.015×(the treatment method was chemotherapy alone). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the Cox risk prediction model for cervical cancer recurrence constructed was 0.736 (95% CI 0.684 to 0.789), the best prediction threshold was 0.857, the sensitivity was 0.576, and the specificity was 0.810. The accuracy of the Cox risk model constructed by this model was good. From the clinical decision curve, the net benefit value was high and the validity was good. CONCLUSIONS Patient age, age at menarche, miscarriages, clinical stages, and treatment methods are independent factors affecting cervical cancer recurrence. The Cox proportional hazards prediction model for cervical cancer recurrence constructed in this study can be better used for predicting the risk of cervical cancer recurrence.

Objective: To understand knowledge, attitude and behavior toward Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19) among middle school students in Wuhan, in the phase of normalized control and prevention of COVID 19, so as to provide evidence for further health education. Methods: In January 2021, cluster random sampling method was used to select one middle school from Hongshan and Dongxihu District, as well as Donghu high tech zone, respectively. By using the "questionnaire star" platform, questionnaire QR code were sent to students through QQ or wechat by schools. A total of 4 531 middle school students were investigated. Results: Preventive knowledge and behavior rate was 71.5% (3 238) and 56.0% (2 537), respectively. Preventive behaviors towards COVD 19 was reported in 56.0% (2 537) of participants. Students with parents as health care workers reported higher preventive behaviors(P<0.05).Girls had a higher rate of possession of health knowledge for prevention and control than boys. Compared with "essentially no concern about the epidemic","students with less concern about the epidemic" and "those with similar concern as 2020" were more likely to have higher awareness of health knowledge for prevention and control. Compared with the first-year junior middle school students, high school students were less likely to have the rates of knowledge for prevention and control health [OR(95%CI）=1.24（1.09-1.43）,2.56(1.54-4.25),3.30(1.99-5.48),0.49(0.39-0.62),0.45(0.36-0.57),0.63(0.46-0.88)].In terms of health behavior rate, middle school students whose mothers are undergraduates, whose incomes were more than 8 001-15 000 and 15 000 yuan, "whose attention to epidemic situation has declined" , "whose attention is the same as that in 2020" , "who did not plan to study medicine before" , "who are determined to study medicine, and who plan to study medicine more firmly after epidemic situation " were more likely to have health behavior,[OR(95%CI)=1.29(1.04-1.60),1.39（1.07-1.82）,1.74(1.32-2.29),1.77(1.06-2.96),3.47(2.08-5.81)] ,The grade-2 high middle school students had lower probability of preventing and controlling health behaviors [OR(95%CI)=0.74(0.60-0.90)](P<0.05). Preventive knowledge and behaviors towards COVID 19 are mainly from school education, communication with parents and mobile learning. Conclusion Preventive knowledge and behaviors towards COVID 19 among Wuhan middle school students are needed to be improved and targeted health education should be implemented accordingly.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical efficacy of staged surgery on Sanders Ⅳ calcaneal fractures with soft tissue Ⅲ swelling. METHODS: The clinical data of 76 patients with Sanders type Ⅳ closed calcaneal fracture with soft tissue three-degree swelling treated from June 2017 to May 2020 was retrospectively analyzed, including 54 males and 22 females, aged from 25 to 50 (38.16±10.24) years. The patients were divided into observation group and control group according to different treatment methods. Twenty-four patients in the observation group were treated by staged surgery stageⅠclosed prying traction reduction and Kirschner wire fixation, stageⅡopen reduction and internal fixation with titanium plate, including 17 males and 7 females, aged from 25 to 50 (36.12±9.56) years. There were 52 patients in the control group, including 37 males and 15 females, aged from 25 to 50 (38.32±10.67) years, these patients were treated with open reduction and internal fixation with titanium plate after the dermatoglyphic signs appeared. The swelling subsidence time, the length of hospitalization days, and the incidence of postoperative incision complications were compared between two groups. The Bhler angle, Gissane angle, and calcaneal varus angle were measured by X-ray before and 6 months after operation. American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) about the ankle hindfoot score was used to evaluate the clinical efficacy. RESULTS: All 76 patients were followed up for 8 to 12 (9.52±2.01) months. The swelling subsidence time and hospitalization days in observation group were (12.12± 3.24) d and (24.53±6.44) d, respectively, which in control group were (15.16±4.16) d and (29.46±9.61) d, with statistical difference between two groups ( CONCLUSION Compared with open reduction and internal fixation with titanium plate after the appearance of dermatoglyphic signs, staged surgery for Sanders type Ⅳ calcaneal fractures with soft tissue three-swelling does not increase the risk of soft tissue complications, and can significantly shorten the patient's swelling subsidence time and hospitalization days, improve the quality of fracture reduction and short term function, and relieve pain.

Objective:To investigate the effects of cell adhesion molecule 1 (CADM1) promoter methylation in ovarian cancer on gene transcription and protein expression levels, and the regulation mechanism of mirNA-148A on CADM1 methylation levels.Methods:A total of 86 patients with ovarian cancer who received surgical treatment in the Affiliated Hospital of Hangzhou Normal University from Jun. 2018 to Jun. 2020 were selected as study subjects. The methylation level of CADM1 gene CpG island in ovarian cancer tissues and adjacent tissues was quantitatively detected. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the mRNA and mirNA-148a expressions of CADM1 gene. The CADM1 gene and DNMT1 protein levels were detected by Western blot. Human ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells were treated with different concentrations of methyltransferase inhibitors (5-Azacytidine, 5-aza) , and CADM1 mRNA expression was detected 72 h later. Human ovarian cancer cell lines SKOV3 were transfected with mir-335-5p mimic, inhibitor and negative control respectively. Then mir-335-5p expression level and CADM1 gene methylation level were detected after transfection.Results:The methylation level of CADM1-1 island in ovarian cancer tissues was 2.89%±0.82%, significantly higher than that of paracancerous normal tissues 1.86%±0.68% ( t=4.936, P<0.001) , and that of CADM1-2 island in ovarian cancer tissues was 3.12%±0.93%, significantly higher than that of paracancerous normal tissues (2.27%±0.69%, t=5.114, P<0.001) . Pearson correlation analysis showed that the methylation level of CADM1-1 island and CADM1-2 island in ovarian cancer tissues was significantly negatively correlated with the relative mRNA expression (r was -0.615 and -0.582, respectively, and both P<0.001) , and with the protein expression level of CADM1 (r was -0.521 and -0.612, respectively, and both P<0.001) . The relative expression level of mirNA-148a in ovarian cancer tissues was 1.53±0.42, significantly lower than that in paracancer tissues (2.59±0.73, t=6.113, P<0.001) . After treatment with different concentrations of 5-AZA, mRNA expression levels of CADM1 gene in SKOV3 cells were significantly higher in the low concentration group and the high concentration group than in the control group (both P<0.05) , and mRNA expression levels in the high concentration group were significantly higher than in the low concentration group ( P<0.05) . After mirNA-148A transfected SKOV3 cells, the relative expression levels of mirNA-148a in the mimic group were significantly increased, while those of inhibitor group were significantly decreased ( P<0.001) . The DNMT1 expression level and CADM1 gene methylation level of mimic group were significantly decreased, while those of inhibitor group were significantly increased (P<0.001) . Conclusion:In ovarian cancer, miRNA-148a can regulate the DNA methylation level of CADM1 gene by acting on the downstream target protein DNMT1, thus affecting the mRNA and protein expression levels of CDM1 gene and participating in the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and current status of surgical management for esophageal cancer in China.Methods:A national database was setup through a network platform. The clinical data of esophageal cancer treated by surgery was collected from 70 major hospitals in China between January 2009 and December 2014.Results:Complete data of 8 181 cases of esophageal cancer patients who underwent surgery were recorded in the database and recruited in the analysis. Among them, 6 052 cases were male and 2 129 were female, the average age was 60.5 years.The epidemiological investigation results showed that 148 cases (1.8%) had history of psychological trauma, 7 527 cases (92.0%) were lower social economic status, 5 072 cases (62.0%) were short of fresh vegetables and fruits, 6 544 cases (80.0%) ate rough food frequently, 3 722 cases (45.5%) drank untreated water directly from lake or river or shallow well, 3 436 cases (42.0%) had a unhealthy eating habit, including habits of eating food fast (507 cases, 6.2%), eating hot food or drinking hot tea/soup (998 cases, 12.2%), eating fried food (1 939 cases, 23.7%), 4 410 cases (53.9%) had the habits of smoking cigarettes and 2 822 cases (34.5%) drank white wine frequently.The pathological results showed that 7 813 cases (95.5%) were squamous cell carcinoma, 267 cases were adenocarcinoma (3.3%), 25 cases were adenosquamous cell carcinoma (0.3%) and 50 cases were small cell carcinoma (0.6%). A total of 1 800 cases (22.0%) received preoperative neoadjuvant therapy due to locally advanced disease or difficulty of resection. The esophagectomies were performed through left thoracotomy approach in 5 870 cases (71.8%), through right chest approach in 2 215 cases (27.1%), and the remain 96 cases (1.2%) received surgery though other approaches.A total of 8 001 cases (97.8%) underwent radical resection, the other 180 cases (2.2%) received palliative resection. The 30-day postoperative mortality rate was 0.5%, the overall ≥ grade Ⅱ postoperative complication rate was 11.6% (951 cases). The 1-yr, 3-yr, and 5-yr overall actual survival rates were 82.6%, 61.6%, and 52.9%, respectively.Conclusions:The data analysis of the national database for esophageal cancer shows that bad eating habits or eating rough food without enough nutrients, lower social and economic status, drinking white wine and smoking cigarettes frequently may be correlated with tumorigenesis of esophageal cancer. However, strong evidences produced by prospective observation studies are needed. Overall, the long-term survival of esophageal cancer patients has been improved gradually due to the application of advanced surgical techniques and reasonable multimodality treatment.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of the the hypopharynx and chest esophageal carcinoma. Methods: 20 patients surgical treatment data of the hypopharynx and chest esophageal carcinoma from January 2013 to July 2019 were reviewed. Results: The simultaneous hypopharynx and esophageal carcinoma 11 cases. The heterochronic hypopharynx and chest esophageal carcinoma 9 cases. 20 cases are all squamous cell carcinoma. The synchronus operation included total pharyngolaryngo esophagectomy, gastric tube interposition pharyngo gastric anastomic, neck and mediastinal lymph nodes dissection, tracheostomy. The heterochronic operation included the first stage radical hypopharygealectomy, the second stage radical esophagealectomy. Postoperative complications included in hospital death in one, double pneumonia in 3 and anastomosis stricture in one case. Pharynx gastric fistula in 2. Swallowing function were all recovered. Conclusion Although laryngo pharyngo esophagectomy and pharyngogastric anastomoses for the hypopharynx and chest esophageal carcinoma is a simple and acceptable procedure, the quality of life is not satisfactory. And although colon interpasation for esophageal replacement is complicated the quality of life is the best.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the modified Stoppa approach in the surgical treatment of pelvic fractures of Tile type C combined with acetabular both-column fractures. Methods: Between April 2014 and April 2017, a total of 14 patients were treated by open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) through the modified Stoppa approach at Department of Orthopaedics, Foshan Gaoming Hospital for pelvic fractures of Tile type C combined with acetabular both-column fractures. They were 10 men and 4 women, with an average age of 36.4 years (from 23 to 57 years). The modified Stoppa approach was used exclusively in 4 cases, in combination with the iliac fossa approach in 3 ones, in combination with the Kocher-Langenbeck approach in 4 ones and in combination with the Kocher-Langenbeck and iliac fossa approaches in 3 ones. In all the patients, the pelvic reconstructive plate and screws and lag screws were used. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative fracture reduction, fracture union time, efficacy and complications were recorded. Results: The operation time averaged 170 min (from 110 to 330 min) and the intraoperative bleeding 420 mL (from 240 to 1 100 mL). There were no operative complications. By the Matta evaluation, the postoperative reduction was rated as excellent in the 14 pelvic fractures and 9 acetabular both-column fractures and as good in 5 acetabular both-column fractures. Of this series, 13 patients were followed up for an average of 19 months (from 12 to 29 months) and one was lost to the follow-up. The fractures got united after an average time of 3.4 months (from 2.7 to 4.6 months). Screw loosening was observed in one case and mild limitation to hip flexion in one. Follow-ups found no lateral ventral syndrome or femoral head necrosis. Their Harris hip scores at the last follow-up ranged from 70 to 94 points, averaging 84 points. The function of the affected hip was excellent in 6 cases, good in 5 and fair in 2. Conclusion The modified Stoppa approach may be used exclusively or in combination with other approaches to treat effectively the pelvic fractures of Tile type C combined with acetabular both-column fractures, leading to good short-term clinical outcomes.

Objective To investigate the effect of long-term high-fat diet on cognitive function and hippocampus neurons ultrastructure in obese rats.Methods Forty SD rats were randomly assigned to a high fat diet (HFD) group and a common diet (CD) group.Meanwhile,HFD-induced obese rat model were established.The spatial learning and memory were measured by the Morris water maze,and the neurons ultrastructural changes in rat hippocampus CA1 region at the corresponding period were observed by transmission electron microscopy.Results The average weight of rats was 25％,28％,and 22％ higher in the HFD group than in the CD group at the 12,16,and 20 weeks,respectively;the Lee's indexes were 6％,4％,and 8％ higher;the average swimming latency were 52％,44％,and 40％ longer;the average swimming distance were 85％,45％,and 51％ longer;the average swimming speed were 57％,34％,and 18％ higher;the duration of staying in the target quadrant were 32％,54％,and 63％ shorter;and the average times of crossing the plate form were 30％,34％,and 34％ shorter,respectively (all P ＜0.001).In comparison of ultrastructure in hippocampus CA1 region of rats at corresponding time points,the amounts of degenerated and necrosis neurons,of the deformed and vacuolar mitochondria,and of the less rough endoplasmic reticulum were significantly more at 12,16,and 20 weeks in the HFD group than in the CD group.Conclusions Long-term HFD-induced obesity damages the structure of neurons in the hippocampus,impairs spatial learning and memory function,and accelerates cognitive aging in rats.
