Objective To explore the feasibility and safety of tension-free vaginal tape-obturator for female stress urinary incontinence under the daytime surgical mode based on the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery. Methods The clinical data of female patients with stress urinary incontinence at the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University between June 2019 and June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the perioperative management mode of patients, they were divided into daytime surgery group and routine surgery group. The basic, intraoperative, and postoperative conditions of two groups of patients were compared. Results Finally, 183 patients were included, including 91 in the routine surgery group and 92 in the daytime surgery group. All patients successfully completed the surgery. There was no statistically significant difference in age, preoperative comorbidities, surgeon in chief, or operation duration between the two groups of patients (P>0.05). The preoperative waiting time after hospitalization [(0.00±0.00) vs. (2.42±0.58) d], hospitalization expenses [(13815.10±2906.01) vs. (18095.21±3586.67) yuan], total surgical expenses [(3961.36±707.35) vs. (4440.19±1016.31) yuan], anesthesia expenses [(718.53±61.06) vs. (755.30±74.65) yuan], western medicine expenses [(818.07±259.30) vs. (1282.14±460.75) yuan], total hospitalization duration [(1.11±0.31) vs. (5.77±1.30) d], and postoperative hospitalization duration [(1.11±0.31) vs. (3.35±1.42) d] in the daytime surgery group were lower than those in the routine surgery group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in postoperative complications (respiratory complications, fever, nausea and vomiting, vaginal bleeding, urinary retention, peritonitis), satisfaction, postoperative pain or self perception of symptom improvement (P>0.05). Conclusion The daytime surgery for female stress urinary incontinence based on the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery is safe and feasible, which can shorten hospitalization duration and reduce hospitalization costs.
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder resulting from abnormal neuronal discharges in the brain. China has an estimated 10 million people with epilepsy, nearly half of whom are women of reproductive age. The disease significantly affects patients' fertility, pregnancy safety, and delivery outcomes, necessitating specialized cross-cycle health management, with most patients requiring continuous antiseizure medication during pregnancy. Lamotrigine (LTG), levetiracetam (LEV), and oxcarbazepine (OXC) are preferred pharmacological options during gestation due to their lower teratogenic risks. This review focuses on the holistic management of women with epilepsy (WWE) and the application of antiseizure medications (ASMs), aiming to provide evidence-based strategies for clinical practice.
ObjectivesTo systematically review the epidemiology of high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infections in western Chinese females.MethodsPubMed, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, CNKI and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect epidemiological studies on female genital high-risk HPV infection in western China from January 2000 to July 2018. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed risk of bias of included studies, and then, meta-analysis was performed by using R software.ResultsA total of 35 studies involving 149 037 objects were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: the total infection rate of high-risk HPV in the northwest was 12.21% (95%CI 10.0% to 16.72%), and that in the southwest was 17.48% (95%CI 13.55% to 21.4%). The infection rate of high-risk HPV among healthy females in the northwest was 10.03% (95%CI 10.0% to 11.67%), while that in the southwest was 14.94% (95%CI 11.51% to 18.38%). CINⅠ, CINⅡ-Ⅲ and cervical cancer patients in the northwest with high-risk HPV infection rate were 70.31% (95%CI 49.0% to 91.61%), 84.29% (95%CI 68.36% to 100.22%) and 89.35% (95%CI 74.15% to 104.55%), respectively. The infection rates of patients with corresponding lesions in the southwest were 59.06% (95%CI 45.87% to 72.25%), 83.79% (95%CI 76.62% to 90.96%), and 81.07% (95%CI 67.77% to 94.37%), respectively.ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that the epidemiological pattern of female genital high-risk HPV infection in western China is basically consistent with overseas. The high-risk HPV subtypes are subtype 16, 18, 31, 52, 53 and 58. The HPV vaccine used in China has basically covered the prevalent high-risk HPV subtypes in Western China. The wide application of vaccine may reduce the incidence and mortality of cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer, which will ensure reproductive health females in Western China. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify above conclusions.
Objective To systematically review the clinical presentations and gene types of oculo-facio-cardio-dental (OFCD) syndrome and to provide a theoretical basis for future diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of the disease. Methods The PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CBM, WanFang Data, and CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect studies on OFCD syndrome published from inception to March 1st, 2022. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. A systematic review was then performed. Results A total of 19 studies involving 83 patients with OFCD syndrome were included. The patients had an average age of 15.95±16.03 years, including 5 males and 78 females. The clinical presentations mainly included ocular disorders, facial abnormalities, cardiac disorders, dental abnormalities, physical anomalies, and dysfunctions of other body systems. BCOR gene mutations were detected in 71 patients with OFCD syndrome (overall detection rate: 86%, 95%CI 78% to 93%), of whom five were males (detection rate: 6%, 95%CI 1% to 11%) and 66 were females (detection rate: 80%, 95%CI 71% to 88%). Patients were mostly treated using multidisciplinary symptomatic treatment approaches based on clinical presentations and imaging findings. Conclusion In addition to the typical clinical presentations, BCOR gene testing results should also be taken into consideration for the differential diagnosis of OFCD syndrome. Although symptomatic therapies in clinical practice are relatively mature, they do not address the underlying cause of the disease, i.e., BCOR gene mutations. In future research, greater attention should be diverted to gene therapy.
Objective
To investigate HPV infection, genotype distribution of HPV infection among 8 944 females of health examination in West China Hospital of Sichuan University.
Methods
We enrolled 8 944 females of health examination in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January to September in 2016. HPV genotyping was performed by Luminex fluorescence technique. Excel 2007 and SPSS 17.0 softwares were used to analyze the infection and genotype distribution of HPV.
Results
The HPV infection rate of 8 944 health examination women was 14.4% (1 291/8 944). Among them, there were 1 025 cases of single infection, the infection rate was 11.5% (1 025/8 944); there were 266 cases of multiple infection, the infection rate was 3.0% (266/8 944). The infection rates of 20 to 25 years and ≥66 years groups in single and multiple infection were higher than other age groups. In the single and multiple infections, the most common genotypes were HPV52, 53, 16 and 58. Infection rate of HPV52 was the highest in single infection, which had two increased age groups including 31 to 35 years and 61 to 65 years old. Infection rate of HPV52 and HPV16 were increased in 20 to 25 years old group of multiple infections.
Conclusion
In view of the prevalence of HPV infection among health examination females and the genotype distribution, we recommend incorporating HPV52, 53 and 58 into future vaccine screening.
Objective To systematically review the association between menstrual condition and the risk of breast cancer. Methods We searched The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2016), PubMed, EMbase, CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP and ScienceDirect databases from inception to June 1st 2016 to collect case-control studies about the association between menstrual condition and breast cancer. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using Stata12.0 software. Results Eighty-three studies involving 48 811 breast cancer patients and 57 268 controls were finally included. The results of meta-analysis showed that breast cancer was associated with age at menarche≤13 years old (OR=1.17, 95%CI 1.12 to 1.24) and irregular menstruation (OR=1.98, 95%CI 1.62 to 2.41), but was not associated with history of dysmenorrhea, cycle time≥30 days and period of time>7 days. Further subgroup analysis showed that the sample size was one of the main source of heterogeneity for history of dysmenorrheal analysis, and breast cancer was associated with the history of dysmenorrhea after removing small-sampled studies (OR=1.47, 95%CI 1.36 to 1.59). The association between breast cancer and age at menarche≤13 years old, irregular menstruation was statistically significant in community control, but not in hospital control. The association between breast cancer and age at menarche≤13 years old, irregular menstruation were statistically significant both in Chinese and foreign population. Conclusion Early age at menarche, irregular menstruation and history of dysmenorrhea may be risk factors of breast cancer. Due to the limitation of quality and quanity of included studies, the above conclusions need more researches to verify.
Objective To evaluate the sensitivity， specificity, and accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging （MRI） in characterizing adnexal masses. Methods The databases such as the Cochrane Library, PubMed， EMbase， CNKI， and WanFang Data were searched on computer from 1991 to 2011. The reviewers screened the trials according to inclusion and exclusion criteria strictly, extracted the data， and assessed the methodology quality. Meta-analysis were performed using the Metadisc 1.40 software. The acquired pooled sensitivity, specificity， and summary receiver operating characteristic curve （SROC） were used to describe the diagnostic value. The pooled likelihood ratios were calculated based on the pooled sensitivity and specificity. Results Ten case-control studies involving 649 women who were suspected to have pelvic masses were included and 729 masses were confirmed by the postoperative histopathology. The pooled statistical results of meta-analysis showed that：the sensitivity and specificity of MRI were 〔89%（84%-92%）， P=0.046 6〕 and 〔87% （83%-90%）， P=0.000 2〕 respectively, the positive and negative likelihood ratios of MRI were 6.25（P=0.008 5） and 0.14（P=0.029 1） respectively, and the area under the SROC curve （AUC） was 0.941. The sensitivity and specificity of ultrasound were 〔87%（82%-91%）， P=0.000 0〕 and 〔73%（69%-77%）, P=0.000 0〕 respectively, the positive and negative likelihood ratios of MRI were 3.07（P=0.000 0） and 0.18（P=0.000 1） respectively， and the AUC was 0.897. The speci?city and accuracy of MRI in characterizing female pelvic masses were higher than ultrasound obviously. Conclusion According these evidences， the MRI should be recommended to the women who are suspected to have pelvic masses as a preferred.
Objective To analyze stress-related disorders and the effect of crisis prevention in 54 females admitted to the Female Psychiatry Department of The Third Hospital of Mianyang City after the Wenchuan earthquake. Methods The patients were assessed with BPRS, HAMD, HAMA, and BPMS scales. According to their clinical manifestations, antipsychiatric, antidepressive, anxiolytic, and antimanic treatment were administered to them. All patients received cognitive-behavior and psychological therapy and were assessed after one month. Results Although all patients were earthquake sufferers, their clinical manifestations varied. Strengthened crisis prevention combined with appropriate drug treatment alleviated their symptoms. Conclusion In terms of alleviating symptoms, curtailing disease course, and facilitating mental rehabilitation, post-catastrophe crisis prevention is extremely important for female patients with stress-related disorders.
