Vonoprazan Fumarate: A Promising Therapeutic Option for the Rapid Relief of Laryngopharyngeal Reflux Disease.

Objective: The aim is to examine the Reflux Symptom Score-12 (RSS-12) and assess the effectiveness of vonoprazan fumarate in managing laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) among the Chinese population.

Methods: A total of 140 patients with LPRD who were treated at our otorhinolaryngology outpatient clinic were included. The patients were randomly divided into the vonoprazan treatment group and the esomeprazole treatment group.

[The efficacy of vonoprazan fumarate in the treatment of laryngopharyngeal reflux disease evaluated by the Chinese version of the RSS-12 scale].

To explore the efficacy of vonoprazan fumarate in the treatment of laryngopharyngeal reflux disease（LPRD） evaluated by the Chinese version of the RSS-12 scale. A total of 100 LPRD patients treated in the otolaryngology-head and neck surgery outpatient clinic of our hospital were randomly divided into two groups（50 cases each）. The observation group was treated with vonoprazan fumarate（20 mg, once daily）, and the control group was treated with esomeprazole enteric-coated capsules（20 mg, twice daily） for 12 weeks.

Effectiveness of psychological interventions on pregnancy rates in infertile women undergoing assisted reproductive technologies: a meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials.

The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of psychological interventions on the pregnancy rates of infertile women undergoing assisted reproductive technology (ART). Using the electronic databases PubMed, EM Base, Cochrane Library, WOS, CNKI, WanFang Data, CSTJ, and CBM, a systematic literature search was conducted in the second week of August 2019. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the effect of psychological interventions on the pregnancy rate of infertile women undergoing assisted reproductive technology were collected.

Analysis of Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes of Pregnant Women with Syphilis and Maternal-Infant Serological Association in Changzhou, China, 2015-2019.

Background: Although the prevention of mother-to-child transmission of syphilis program in China has achieved national coverage for 7 years, controversy still exists regarding the treatment of syphilis and the serological significance of syphilis.

Objective: To explore the occurrence and influencing factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes among pregnant women with syphilis in Changzhou from 2015-2019 and to further analyze the impact of syphilis serologic titers on perinatal outcomes and neonatal serologic outcomes.

Methods: Syphilis-infected pregnant women reported in Changzhou City from 2015 to 2019 were selected as the study population (data were obtained from the "China Information System for Prevention of Mother-to-child Transmission of AIDS, Syphilis and Hepatitis B.

Investigation on Quality of Life and Economic Burden of Children with Cerebral Palsy in Changzhou.

Based on the data of children with cerebral palsy (CP) in Changzhou obtained by the Disabled Persons' Federation, this study sampled some children with CP and investigated their survival status, treatment cost, and family burden so as to provide scientific decision-making basis and policy suggestions for coping with disease hazards and improving children's quality of life. In this study, a simple random sampling method was used to conduct household surveys of the selected children with CP. The economic burden of CP is measured by direct and indirect methods, and the quality of life of patients of children with CP and their families is analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively by the EuroQol Five Dimensions (EQ-5D) Questionnaire.

Application of a randomized response technique for the sensitive question survey in female sex workers in Xichang, China.

Background: The technique of sampling is a particularly important aspect of sampling surveys, and the method of determining sample size is the key link in sampling technique. However, a sample size determination method for complex sampling surveys of sensitive issues using a randomized response model is not yet available.

Methods: In this work, we drew from the theory of probability and mathematical statistics, and developed a series of formulas for sample size determination that are required to estimate the overall proportion and mean on dichotomous sensitive questions in 3-stage sampling using Simmons models.

Investigation and estimation of the prevalence of drug addicts in Xichang, china.

To use a new method to estimate the prevalence of drug addicts in Xichang for the first time and to suggest that Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention should strengthen surveillance and intervention for them.The Capture-Mark-Recapture (CMR) method of 3 correlated sources under the simple random sampling and its formulas detailed in this paper were applied to a survey of issues relevant to drug addicts in Xichang, China.To view half a year as reacquisition time, the prevalence of drug users in Xichang could be 5264 in 2014, accounting for 0.

Serological Prevalence of Schistosoma japonicum in Mobile Populations in Previously Endemic but Now Non-Endemic Regions of China: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Schistosomiasis japonica has been resurging in certain areas of China where its transmission was previously well controlled or interrupted. Several factors may be contributing to this, including mobile populations, which if infected, may spread the disease. A wide range of estimates have been published for S.

Comparison of genetic diversity and population structure between two Schistosoma japonicum isolates--the field and the laboratory.

Schistosomiasis japonicum is one of the most important human parasitic diseases, and a number of studies have recently elucidated the difference in biological characteristics of S. japonicum among different parasite isolates, for example, between the field and the laboratory isolates. Therefore, the understanding of underlying genetic mechanism is of both theoretical and practical importance.

Compatibility of Schistosoma japonicum from the hilly region and Oncomelania hupensis hupensis from the marshland region within Anhui, China.

Schistosome japonicum remains one main public concern in China. This is exemplified in the hilly region in Anhui Province, where rodents have served as reservoirs for the parasite and no effective intervention could target such wild animals. The closer relationship between the hilly region and the near marshland induces the worry of spread of the hill parasite to the marshland region.
