Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of dermal anchoring method combined with low energy electron beam irradiation in the removal of chest wall keloids.Methods:Clinical data of patients with medium and large-sized chest wall keloids treated in Plastic Surgery Department of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from May 2015 to May 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. The keloid was completely removed from the superficial fascia layer, and a small patch of scar dermis tissue was retained in the center of the keloid. When the cutting edge was sutured, the above-mentioned dermis tissue was anchored to achieve tension reduction. Then low energy electron beam irradiation treatment was carried out within 24 h after surgery, with an irradiation range of 5-10 mm from the incision edge and a subcutaneous depth of 2 cm. The lesions were irradiated for 3 times, with a 24 h interval between each exposure. The total irradiation dose was 20 Gy. The width, severity of hyperplasia (expressed in height), and recurrence of keloids at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery were recorded. Patient satisfaction was evaluated one year after surgery (with a total score of 10 points, 0-3 points of dissatisfaction, 4-7 points of general satisfaction, 8-10 points of great satisfaction), and the incidence of radiation complications was observed. SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis of the data, with measurement data represented by Mean±SD. Repeated measurement analysis of variance was conducted for the same variable at different periods, and counting data was represented by %. χ2 test was used for group comparison. P<0.05 indicated the difference with statistical significance. Results:A total of 39 patients with 39 scars were included. There were 15 males and 24 females, aged (30.9±9.5) years. The preoperative scar width was (43±5) mm (rang 38-48 mm), and the scar volume was 20.0 mm×38.0 mm×7.5 mm-80.0 mm×48.0 mm×1.6 mm. After the surgery, the wound showed a mild protrusion with minimal exudation, and the wound was dry and clean after irradiation. The scar width at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery was (1.3±0.5), (1.8±0.5), and (2.9±0.5) mm, respectively, with statistically significant difference ( P<0.01); the severity of scar hyperplasia was (0.9±0.3), (1.3±0.3), and (1.8±0.3) mm, with statistically significant difference ( P<0.01); the recurrence rates of keloids were 12.8% (5 cases), 23.1% (9 cases), and 25.6% (10 cases), respectively, with no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05). The patient satisfaction score at 1 year after surgery was 2-10, average of 7. There were 4 cases (10%) of dissatisfaction, 10 cases (26%) of general satisfaction, 25 cases (64%) of great satisfaction. No radiotherapy complications occurred. Conclusion:Dermal anchoring method combined with low energy electron beam irradiation can achieve good therapeutic effects in the removal of chest wall keloids. The recurrence rate of keloids is low, and patient satisfaction is high.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of moderate to severe cancer-related fatigue (CRF) in patients undergoing chemotherapy of prostate cancer, and to construct a nomogram model to predict the occurrence of CRF.Methods:Using the case data questionnaire, Brief Fatigue Inventory, Social Support Rating Scale and International Prostate Symptom Scores, 724 patients of prostate cancer treated by chemotherapy in Shanghai Tenth People′s Hospital from August 2016 to June 2021 were selected and were treated with 1∶1 ratio, and the indexes of the moderate and severe CRF group (216 cases) and the non-moderate and severe CRF group (216 cases) were compared. According to the ratio of 7∶3, the envelope method was used to divide into training set and validation set. The independent risk factors of moderate and severe CRF were explored by univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis, and the risk prediction model was established and the nomogram model was constructed. The C-index and area under ROC curve were used to verify the prediction effect of the model.Results:Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that BMI ranged from 24.0 to 27.9 kg/m 2 ( OR=1.733), BMI≥28.0 kg/m 2 ( OR=3.126), neutropenia occurred during chemotherapy ( OR=1.747), chemotherapy course >6 months ( OR=1.893), moderate social support level ( OR=1.244), low social support level ( OR=2.434), mild urinary tract symptoms ( OR=1.264), moderate urinary tract symptoms ( OR=3.371) and severe urinary tract symptoms ( OR=5.297) were independent risk factors for moderate and severe CRF. The nomogram model constructed according to the above risk factors was internally verified by the training set and the validation set, and its C-index was 0.854 and 0.741 respectively. The area under ROC curve training set was 0.823, and the validation set was 0.733. Conclusions:The nomogram model can effectively predict the occurrence of moderate to severe CRF in patients with prostate cancer undergoing chemotherapy.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of early treatment of congenital giant melanocytic nevus (CGMN).Methods:From October 2013 to December 2021, the clinical data of children with giant nevus treated with skin soft tissue expansion in the Plastic Surgery Department of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. A renal expander was implanted in the first stage, including single and repeated expansion. The giant nevus was removed and repaired in the second stage with an expanded skin flap. The occurrence of complications, such as wound infection, expander exposure, expander rupture, and flap congestion, were recorded. Children’s mental health problems and their parents’ satisfaction were also analyzed. The χ2 between children of different ages and the infection rate between children with an internal and external pot. Results:A total of 58 children, 24 males and 34 females, aged from 3 months to 3 years, with an average age of 1.45 years, were enrolled. A total of 190 expanders were implanted. The patients were followed for 5 to 106 months, averaging 42.43 months. In the first stage, 29 cases of wound infection, 41 cases of expander exposure, two cases of flap congestion, and 6 cases of expander rupture occurred. The flap transfers were not affected by these complications after appropriate treatment. The comparison of complication rates among 3 months~<1 year、1~<2 years、2~<3 years、3 years was 37.34%(31/83)、56.75% ((21/37) ), 33.33% (13/39) and 41.94%(13/31), respectively, No statistically significant difference ( χ2=5.21, P=0.157). The incidence of wound infection was 16.67% (6/36) and 14.94% (23/154), respectively, for the internal and external dilators. There was no significant difference in the location of the dilator pot and the incidence of wound infection ( χ2=0.07, P=0.795). The appearance of all children has been significantly improved. Thirty-nine children’s families are particularly satisfied, and 20 are generally satisfied with the treatment effect, and no mental health problems were found. Conclusions:Skin and soft tissue expansion is a reliable method for early treatment of congenital giant nevus.

Objective: To understand the health literacy and relevant factors of cancer prevention consciousness in Chinese urban residents from 2015 to 2017. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. The self-designed questionnaire was used to collect the information of demographic characteristics and cancer prevention consciousness focusing on nine common risk factors, including smoking, alcohol, fiber food, food in hot temperature or pickled food, chewing betel nut, helicobacter pylori, moldy food, hepatitis B infection, estrogen, and exercise. The logistic regression model was adopted to identify the influencing factors. Results: The overall health literacy of the cancer prevention consciousness was 77.4% (24 980 participants), with 77.4% (12 018 participants), 79.9% (6 406 participants), 77.2% (1 766 participants) and 74.5% (4 709 participants) in each group (P<0.001). The correct response rates for nine risk factors ranged from 55.2% to 93.0%. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with community residents, people with primary school level education or below, and the number of people living together in the family <3, the cancer risk assessment/screening intervention population, cancer patients, those with junior high school level educationor above and the number of people living in the family ≥3 had better health literacy of the cancer prevention consciousness (all P values <0.05). Compared with females, 39 years old and below, government-affiliated institutions or civil servants, from the eastern region, males, older than 40 years, company or enterprise employees, and from the middle or western region had worse health literacy of the cancer prevention consciousness (all P values <0.05). Conclusion The health literacy of the cancer prevention consciousness in Chinese urban residents should be improved. The cancer screening intervention, gender, age, education, occupation, the number of people co-living in the family, and residential region were associated with the health literacy of the cancer prevention consciousness.

Objective: To understand the consciousness of the cancer early detection among urban residents and identify the influencing factors from 2015 to 2017. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. Self-designed questionnaires were used to collect population, socioeconomic indicators, self-cancer risk assessment, regular participation in physical examination and other information. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to identify the factors of people who had not regularly participated in the regular physical examination in the past five years. Results: The self-assessment results of 32 357 residents showed that there were 27.54% (8 882) of total study population with self-reported cancer risk, 45.48% (14 671) without cancer risk and 26.98% (8 704) with unclear judgement on their own cancer risk. Among population with cancer risk, 79.84% (7 091) considered physical examination accounted. In the past five years, there were 21 105 (65.43%) residents participated in regular physical examination and 11 148 (34.56%) participated in non-scheduled one, respectively. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with unmarried and western region residents, divorced, middle and eastern region residents had a stronger consciousness to participate in the regular physical examination (P<0.05). Compare with residents with annual household income less than 20 000 CNY in 2014, cancer risk assessment/screening intervention population, and self-assessment with cancer risk, residents with annual household income between 20 000 CNY and 59 000 CNY in 2014, occupational population, community residents, cancer patients, self-reported cancer-free risk, and self-assessment with unclear judgement of cancer risk were less likely to participate in the regular physical examination (all P values <0.05). Conclusion From 2015 to 2017, the Chinese urban residents had a acceptable consciousness of the cancer early detection. The marital status, annual household income, population group and self-assessment of cancer risk were related to the consciousness of the cancer early detection of people who had not participated in the regular physical examination in the past five years.

Objective: To understand the consciousness of the cancer early diagnosis among urban residents and identify the related factors from 2015 to 2017. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. The general demographic characteristics, the consciousness of the cancer early diagnosis (whether people would have a willingness or encourage their relatives/friends to confirm the abnormal results once which were detected from the physical examination) and other information were collected by using the self-designed questionnaire. The non-conditional logistic regression model was used to identify the relateol factors related to the consciousness of the cancer early diagnosis. Results: As for residents with abnormal result from the physical examination, 89.29% (28 802) of residents would choose to seek medical treatment for further diagnosis. If their relatives/friends had abnormal results from the physical examination, 89.55% (28 886) of residents would encourage their relatives/friends to confirm the diagnosis in time. The non-conditional logistic regression model analysis showed that compared with the public institution staff/civil servants, annual household income less than 20 000 CNY, the western region and the cancer risk assessment/screening intervention population, the company staff, annual household income about 40 000 CNY and more, and the residents from the middle and eastern region had a stronger consciousness to seek further diagnosis; while the unemployed residents and community residents were less likely to seek further diagnosis (P<0.05). Conclusions From 2015 to 2017, the Chinese urban residents had a good consciousness of the cancer early diagnosis. Occupation, annual household income, residential region and population group were related to the consciousness of the cancer early diagnosis.

Objective: To understand the consciousness of the cancer early treatment and its demographic and socioeconomic factors. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China (CanSPUC) from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. The questionnaire collected personal information, the consciousness of the cancer early treatment and relevant factors. The Chi square test was used to compare the difference between the consciousness of the cancer early treatment and relevant factors among the four groups. The logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors related to the consciousness of the cancer early treatment. Results: With the assumption of being diagnosed as precancer or cancer, 89.97% of community residents, 91.84% of cancer risk assessment/screening population, 93.00% of cancer patients and 91.52% of occupational population would accept active treatments (P<0.001). If the immediate family members were diagnosed as precancer or cancer, people who would encourage their family members to receive early treatment in the four groups accounted for 91.96%, 91.94%, 92.44% and 91.55%, respectively (P<0.001). The company employees, annual household income with 40 000 yuan and more and other three groups had a relatively better consciousness of the cancer early treatment (P<0.05). Male, widowed, unemployed and from the central and western regions had a relatively worse consciousness of the cancer early treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion Residents in urban China participants had a good consciousness of the cancer early treatment. The marital status, occupation, annual household income and residential regions were major factors related to the consciousness of the cancer early treatment.

Objective: To understand the health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment among urban residents of China, and explore the related factors. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China (CanSPUC) from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. The health literacy of the cancer prevention, early discovery, early diagnosis, early treatment and the demands of cancer prevention and treatment knowledge was analyzed. The level of health literacy among different groups were calculated and compared. The binary logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of the health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment. Results: The level of health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment was 56.97% among all study population; in each group it was 55.01% for community residents, 59.08% for cancer risk assessment/screening population, 61.99% for cancer patients and 57.31% for occupational population, respectively (P<0.001). The level of health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment of residents aged 50 to 69 years old, other occupational groups, unmarried, the central and western region residents and the group with unclear self-assessment of cancer risk was significantly lower than that of residents younger than 40 years old, personnel of public institutions/civil servants, married, the eastern region residents and the group whose self-assessment without cancer risk (P<0.05) . The level of health literacy of cancer prevention and treatment of females, people who went to high school or over, cancer risk assessment/screening population, cancer patients and occupational population was significantly higher than that of males, people who had an education level of primary school or below and community residents (P<0.05) . Conclusion The health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment of urban residents in China was relatively high, but there was still room for improvement. Gender, age, educational level, occupation, region, marital status, self-assessment of cancer risk, and type of respondents were the key influencing factors of the health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment. Male, 50-69 years old, lower educational level, central and western regions, unclear cancer risk self-assessment, and without specific environmental exposure to cancer prevention and treatment knowledge or related risk factors were the characteristics of the key intervention group of the health literacy of the cancer prevention and treatment.
