Objective:To explore the risk factors and protective factors for esophageal cancer, and provide strategies for prevention, clinical treatment and later-stage intervention.Methods:A total of 150 patients with pathologically confirmed esophageal cancer admitted to Nanjing Liuhe District People′s Hospital from July 2020 to February 2023 were selected as the observation group, and 150 non-tumor patients hospitalized in the department of orthopedics during the same period were selected as the control group. A questionnaire survey was conducted to analyze the independent risk factors and independent protective factors for esophageal cancer.Results:Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that smoking, alcohol consumption, drinking hot tea (hot drinking >65 ℃), eating hard food, frequency of consuming pickled food, frequency of consuming fruits, frequency of consuming vegetables, frequency of getting angry, economic income and frequency of consuming bread were factors affecting the incidence of esophageal cancer ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that smoking, consuming fruits ≤3 times per week, previously drinking alcohol but currently not drinking, and not eating hard food were factors affecting the incidence of esophageal cancer ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Smoking and consuming fruits ≤3 times per week are independent risk factors for esophageal cancer, while previously drinking alcohol but currently not drinking and not eating hard food are independent protective factors for esophageal cancer.

Objective:
To apply and evaluate the effect of empowerment educational program on AIDS prevention and treatment among freshmen in one university.
Methods:
The method of two stage stratified sampling was used to select the experimental and control group. The traditional health education was implemented among the control group, and the empowerment education was implemented for the experimental group. The effect of the two groups was compared before and after intervention.
Results:
For experimental group, the awareness rate of AIDS(65.02%) ( χ 2=61.02, P <0.01) and the overall score of attitude and behavior(16.71± 2.53 )( t =-2.66, P <0.05) were significantly improved after intervention(82.96%,18.58±1.95). For the control group, there was significant difference in awareness rate of AIDS after intervention(67.70% vs 96.02%, χ 2=18.64, P <0.05), while there was no statistical difference in overall score of attitude and behavior after intervention(16.52±1.50 vs 17.16±1.57, t =-1.51, P =0.14). There was no significant difference in awareness rate between the two groups before intervention ( χ 2=0.36, P =0.55), but there was a statistical difference after intervention ( χ 2=20.42, P <0.01). There was statistical difference in attitude and behavior scores between the two groups after intervention ( P <0.05).
Conclusion
Empowerment educational program can improve the awareness rate of AIDS among college students, help to establish an objective attitude towards AIDS and infected patients, and to reduce high risk sexual behavior, also it is more effective compared to traditional education method.

Objective:To explore the characters of CDU imaging anatomy and results of clinical application of perforating branch of median cubital vein, and to find the evidence of utilizing perforating vein to establish high level hemodialysis access.Methods:From November, 2016 to October, 2019, 150 median cubital veins in 75 persons were observed by CDU. And the inner diameter and length of the perforating branch were measured Perforating branches of median cubital vein were categorized with ultrasonic imaging anatomy. Thirty-eight chronic kidney failure patients who can not build forearm fistulas were operated by end-to-side anastomosis between perforating branch vein and brachial artery to build hemodialysis access. The blood flow of fisultas was measured,the mature period of fisultas was recorded. The length of available vessels of fisultas was measured and the long-term utilization rate of fisultas was counted.Results:Perforating branch of median cubital vein was always located in a little below elbow near brachial artery, the rate of occurrence was 94.0%. It was sent out at intersection of veins. There were 4 types of perforating vein in image-anatomy. There was no significant difference in vessel length and vessel inner diameter between different types ( P>0.05) ; All the 38 patients with mature fistulas could meet the needs of hemodialysis. The available vascular length of fistulas in type I and type II patients was better than that in type III ( P<0.01), and the long-term utilization rates of fistulas in type I, type II and type III were 84.6%, 85.7% and 72.7%, respectively. There was no significant difference in blood flow and mature period between different types ( P>0.05) . Conclusion:It is most safe and reliable to use the type I and type II of perforating branch of median cubital vein to make the high level fistulas , which can provide a safe and efficient hemodialysis access for the patients with forearm vascular drain, elderly diabetes patients and difficult fistulas with repeatedly thrombosis.
