ObjectiveTo find out the most appropriate way to fix scalp electrodes for long-range video electroencephalogram on female patients. MethodsA total of 50 female patients with epilepsy who underment video electroencephalogram between May 2011 and May 2013 were divided into tonsure group, collodion group, and improvement group, with 40 patients in each group. Differences among three methods of fixation were observed and a questionnaire survey on satisfaction of patients and medical staff was conducted. ResultsWe found that the modified-method cost less time, caused less pain during electrode removal, required fewer procedures for nurses and was more acceptable by patients. ConclusionWe recommend the modified-method for female patients unless they are limited by some special conditions.
Female pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) is a common disease affecting women's quality of life, especially in older women. The establishment and application of multimodal evaluation system is the key to the accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of PFD. The purpose of this expert consensus is to provide a comprehensive, multi-layered assessment framework that includes clinical examinations, imaging examinations, biomechanical tests, and questionnaires to comprehensively assess pelvic floor function in women. By integrating different assessment methods, we aim to improve the early identification and diagnostic accuracy of PFD, so that personalized treatment can be developed to improve patient outcomes. The consensus also discusses the advantages and disadvantages of various assessment techniques and suggests directions for future research and clinical applications.
ObjectiveTo compare the clinical outcome of tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) and TVT-obturator (TVT-O) for female stress urinary incontinence (SUI). MethodsSixty-one female SUI patients were included in our study, in which 33 received TVT procedure and 28 received TVT-O procedure. The patients were followed up for 1 to 62 months post-operatively, averaging at 22 months. Cure was defined as no leakage during the stress test and no residual urine showed by B ultrasound, improvement as less leakage during the stress test after operation, and inefficacy as leakage during the stress test and no difference was detected after operation. ResultsAge and disease course were not significantly different between the two groups (P>0.05). All patients underwent TVT or TVT-O procedure successfully. Time of TVT ranged from 26 to 45 min averaging at (35.5±4.3) minutes, and it was significantly different from the time of TVT-O which ranged from 15 to 20 min averaging at (7.2±3.1) minutes (P<0.05). Bleeding during the surgery was not significantly different between the two groups (P>0.05). The rate of complications occurring during TVT-O procedure was significantly less and milder than that during the TVT procedure (P<0.05). The cure rate and improvement rate indicated no significant differences between the two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionThe evidence available indicates that TVT and TVT-O procedure are both effective and safe for female SUI. Compared with TVT, TVT-O procedure has the advantages of being more convenient, shorter operation time, being less invasive, and fewer complications, and it may be more suitable for female SUI.
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.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical significance of Q-angle measuring under different conditions in female recurrent patellar dislocation female patients. MethodsBetween August 2012 and March 2013, 10 female patients (11 knees) with recurrent patellar dislocation were collected as trial group; 20 female patients (20 knees) with simple meniscus injury were collected as control group at the same time. Q-angle was measured in extension, 30° flexion, 30° flexion with manual correction, and surgical correction in the trial group, and only in extension and 30° flexion in the control group. Then the difference value of Q-angle between extension and 30° flexion (Q-angle in extension subtracts Q-angle in 30 flexion) were calculated. Independent sample t-test was used to analyze Q-angle degrees in extension, 30° flexion, and the changed degrees of 2 groups. The Q-angle between manual correction and surgical correction of the trial group was analyzed by paired t-test. ResultsThe Q-angle in extension, Q-angle in 30° flexion, and difference value of Q-angle between extension and 30° flexion were (17.2±3.6), (14.3±3.0), and (2.9±1.9)° in the trial group and were (15.2±3.4), (14.4±3.5), and (0.8±1.7)° in the control group. No significant difference was found in Q-angle of extension or Q-angle of 30° flexion between 2 groups (P>0.05), but the difference value of Q-angle between extension and 30° flexion in the trial group was significantly larger than that in the control group (t=3.253, P=0.003). The Q-angle in 30° flexion with manual correction and surgical correction in the trial group was (19.8±3.4)° and (18.9±3.8)° respectively, showing no significant difference (t=2.193, P=0.053). ConclusionWhen a female patient's Q-angle in 30° flexion knee changes obviously compared with Q-angle in extension position, recurrent patellar dislocation should be considered. For female patients with recurrent patellar dislocation, the preoperative Q-angle in 30° flexion with manual correction should be measured, which can help increasing the accuracy of evaluation whether rearrangement should be performed.
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 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.
Objective To investigate the clinicopathological features, postoperative survival and prognostic influencing factors of male patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods The clinicopathological features and the follow-up data of 155 male HCC patients who received hepatectomy from Jan. 1995 to Dec. 2002 were retrospectively analyzed and the prognostic influencing factors were defined by uni- and multi-variate analysis. Results Compared with 24 female patients at the same period, males were about six-year older and both of their hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and liver cirrhosis positive rates were higher (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences of the other clinicopathological parameters between the male group and the female group. Multivariate analysis showed that Edmondson-Steiner grade and portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) were two independent prognostic influencing factors of both the overall survival and the tumor-free postoperative survival of male patients with HCC, while satellite nodule and tumor size only influenced the overall survival. Conclusion The main clinicopathological features and the postoperative survival of male HCC patients were similar than those of female’s. Tumor differentiation and biological behaviors were major factors affecting postoperative survival of male patients with HCC.
