		                        			Objective:To explore the risk factors of all-cause death in hypertensive patients in the community.Methods:A cohort of 4 049 hypertensive patients who participated in annual health checkups at Xinzhuang Community Health Service Centre of Shanghai Minhang district from January to December 2012 were enrolled in the study. All-cause death was the endpoint event of this study, and patients were divided into a fatal group and a survival group. The collection date for the endpoint event was December 2022. A multivariate Cox regression model was used to analyse the independent risk factors of all-cause mortality among hypertensive patients in the community.Results:Among 4 049 patients aged (67.9±7.1) years, 1 856 (45.8%) were males. There were 610 cases in the fatal group and 3 439 cases in the survival group. Multivariate Cox proportional regression showed that male gender ( HR=1.446, 95% CI: 1.200-1.742, P<0.001), older age ( HR=1.130, 95% CI: 1.118-1.143, P<0.001), higher waist-to-height ratio ( HR=8.117, 95% CI: 2.235-29.481, P=0.001), positive urinary protein ( HR=2.974, 95% CI: 2.202-4.016, P<0.001), high fasting blood glucose ( HR=1.070, 95% CI: 1.012-1.131, P=0.017), and history of stroke ( HR=1.819, 95% CI: 1.414-2.340, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for all-cause mortality in hypertensive patients, while exercise≥1/week ( HR=0.816, 95% CI: 0.668-0.996, P=0.046) and taking lipid-lowering medications ( HR=0.459, 95% CI: 0.223-0.947, P=0.035) were protective factors for all-cause mortality. Conclusion:For hypertensive patients, male gender, older age, higher waist-to-height ratio, positive urinary protein, high fasting blood glucose, and history of stroke are risk factors for all-cause mortality, while exercise≥1/week and taking lipid-lowering medications are protective factors.

		                        			Background Experimental studies have shown that radiofrequency electromagnetic waves emitted by mobile phones can cause adverse effects on male reproductive health, including decreased semen quality and altered sex hormones. However, the results of epidemiological studies on the relationship between mobile phone use and male semen quality are inconsistent. Furthermore, there are few epidemiological studies on the association of mobile phone use with sex hormones. Objective To explore the associations of mobile phone use with male semen quality and sex hormones. Methods A total of 2045 men visited the reproductive medicine center of a hospital in Wuhan and ordered infertility examination were recruited from December 2018 to January 2020. Information on mobile phone use was obtained using a questionnaire. Among them, 1232 and 1694 men were eligible for semen quality analyses and sex hormone analyses, respectively. Multiple linear and logistic regression models were used to analyze the associations of mobile phone use with male semen quality and sex hormones. Results After adjusting for potential confounders, there was no statistically significant associations of mobile phone use with sperm progressive motility, sperm total motility, sperm concentration, sperm count, or serum luteinizing hormone (P>0.05). However, serum total testosterone showed a declined tendency with increasing daily duration of mobile phone use (Ptrend=0.08). Compared with men with daily mobile phone use of 0-2 h, men with daily mobile phone use of 2.1-5, 5.1-8, and >8 h showed decreased serum total testosterone concentrations by 6.29% (95%CI: 0.40%-11.84%), 6.01% (95%CI: 0.60%-12.19%), and 7.87% (95%CI: 0.40%-14.79%), respectively. Conclusion Mobile phone use is not associated with male semen quality and serum luteinizing hormone, but increasing daily duration of mobile phone use is potentially associated with a tendency to lower male serum total testosterone.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the prognostic factors of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with pulmonary metastasis.Methods:Clinical characteristics of 135 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients presenting with pulmonary metastasis after treatment in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from 2008 to 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Thesurvival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate analysis was performed by log-rank test. Multivariate prognostic analysis was conducted by Cox models.Results:The median follow-up time of 135 patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma was 94.2 months (19.5-258.9 months), and 109 patients died (80.7%). The 1-and 2-year overall survival rates were 47.4% and 25.1%, with the median survival time was 11.1 months (7.3-14.9 months). Univariate prognostic analysis showed that age, number of lung metastases, treatment of lung metastases, lymph node metastasis, distant organ metastasis, and the interval between the first treatment and lung metastasis were the prognostic factors of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with lung metastasis (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that age and number of lung metastases were the independent prognostic factors for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with lung metastases (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Age and number of lung metastases are the independent prognostic factors for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with lung metastases. Surgery or radiotherapy-based regional therapy can enhance clinical prognosis.

		                        			Objective:To analyze the risk factors and human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes distribution in patients with condyloma acuminatum (CA) in two regions of Shandong province.Methods:From August 2019 to December 2020, an anonymous questionnaire survey of CA patients was conducted in three hospitals in Jinan City and Jining City, Shandong Province, and samples were collected for HPV typing. Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of CA recurrence. HPV typing was detected by PCR-reverse dot blot hybridization.Results:A total of 653 questionnaires were collected, and the valid questionnaires accounted for 98.77% (645/653). Recurrence of the disease occurred in 174 patients, with a recurrence rate of 26.98%. Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the distribution of CA recurrence among residence time at current address, sexual frequency, genitalia cleaning, and knowledge of preventing HPV infection ( P<0.05). Multivariate binary logistic regression showed that knowing how to prevent HPV infection was a significant factor that influences CA recurrence. A total of 428 patients underwent HPV typing, and the positive detection rate of HPV was 98.60% (422/428). The top three positive rates were HPV6 (57.58%), HPV11 (36.49%) and HPV16 (11.37%). The main type of infection was low-risk HPV, accounting for 51.42% (217/422). Conclusions:CA patients have the phenomenon of "separation of knowledge and action" , so it is necessary to strengthen health education and behavioral intervention, guide the population to correctly treat sexual behavior, and improve self-prevention awareness and risk awareness.

		                        			Objective:To explore the effect of low frequency magnetic stimulation on myelin and inflammation in the callosum of demyelinated mice.Methods:Thirty-six 6 to 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a control group, a cuprizone (CPZ) group and a magnetic therapy group. The CPZ group and the magnetic therapy group had demyelination induced by feeding a mixed diet containing 0.3% CPZ for 6 weeks, while the control group was given conventional food. The magnetic therapy group was given 50Hz 10mT magnetic stimulation during the 6 weeks for 20min daily, 5 days a week. The body mass of each mouse was observed every 7 days. At the end of the 6th week elevated cross maze experiments were conducted to observe any anxiety state. The myelin sheath in the corpus callosum was observed using Luxol fast blue staining and myelin basic protein (MBP) immunohistochemistry Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in the corpus callosum were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.Results:After the 6 weeks of treatment, the average body mass of the mice in the magnetic therapy group had improved significantly compared with the CPZ group. The CPZ group′s times in the elevated cross maze experiments were significantly shorter than those of the control group and also shorter than those of the magnetic therapy group. The Luxol staining showed significant myelin loss in the corpus callosum of the CPZ group, but compared with the CPZ group the average loss of myelin in the magnetic therapy group was significantly less. This was further confirmed by the MBP immunohistochemistry. Compared with the control group, the average expression of MBP in the CPZ group was significantly reduced, while in the magnetic therapy group it was significantly increased. Compared with the control group, the average TNF-α and IL-1β levels in the corpus callosum of the CPZ group increased significantly, but compared with the CPZ group the average levels in the magnetic therapy group had decreased significantly.Conclusions:Low frequency magnetic stimulation improves the body weight and anxiety state of mice. That is probably related to less myelin loss and inhibited inflammatory response in the corpus callosum.

		                        			Objective? To explore the effects of pain management multi-disciplinary team (pMDT) in postoperative rehabilitation among patients with video assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy, so as to provide a clinical basis for further developing the pMDT. Methods? From May 2016 to March 2017, we selected 90 patients with VATS lobectomy in Peking University People's Hospital by convenience sampling. All of the patients were divided into observation group and control group according to the time before and after implementing pMDT, 45 cases in each group. Two groups all carried out routine perioperative treatment and nursing. On this basis, observation group implemented pMDT. Finally, we compared the incidence of postoperative complications, drawing time of thoracic drainage tube, hospital stay after surgery, score of numerical rating scale (NRS) one and two days after surgery, dose of sufentanil, patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) related adverse reaction and patient satisfaction between two groups. Results? The incidence of postoperative complications, drawing time of thoracic drainage tube, hospital stay after surgery and dose of sufentanil all reduced respectively with statistical differences (χ2=5.874, P< 0.05; Z=2.424, P< 0.01;Z=2.323, P< 0.01;t=13.239, P< 0.01). However, there were no statistical differences in other indexes (P>0.05). Conclusions? The pMDT for VATS lobectomy patients promotes patients' rehabilitation to a certain extent, which is worth to be further generalized in clinical application.
