Objective: To evaluate the 5-year survival rates of patients with early cervical cancer (CC) under different surgical approaches and to analyze the factors affecting the prognosis of these patients.
Methods: A retrospective analysis and follow-up study were conducted on patients who underwent surgical treatment for early CC at Guangdong Women and Children Hospital between January 2005 and December 2017. Prognostic factors were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression model.
Background: Urinary incontinence (UI) is commonly linked to pregnancy and obstetric factors, but the association between fetal birthweight and maternal UI remains contentious. This study investigates the association between fetal birthweight and maternal UI and its subtypes in Chinese primiparas.
Methods: Cross-sectional data from 54,346 women aged 20 years and above were obtained from the 2019-2021 National Urinary Incontinence Survey.
Purpose: Microinjury can trigger in situ tissue repair. Bone transport consists of continuous microinjuries/microfracture and induces bone formation and angiogenesis. Tibial cortex transverse transport (TTT) was found to promote angiogenesis at the foot and the healing of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs).

Wolffian adnexal tumor lacks specific clinical manifestations and its histological morphology is similar to various other tumors, making it highly prone to misdiagnosis. To enhance our understanding of this disease, we hereby report a case of Wolffian adnexal tumor diagnosed and treated in our hospital.

In this work, a continuous-flow system was developed for the synthesis of pyrazinamide derivatives from pyrazine esters and amines (aliphatic amine, benzylamines and morpholine) catalyzed by Lipozyme® TL IM from , which was used for the first time. The reaction parameters including solvent, substrate ratio, reaction temperature and reaction time/flow rate were also studied in detail.

Using continuous-flow microreactors to assemble two-step reactions into one unit can effectively avoid separating and purifying intermediates. Moreover, this method allows the optimization of reaction parameters for each unit individually.

This work presents a novel approach involving the single-atom coordination of cobalt (Co) within metalloporphyrin-based three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (3D-COFs) to facilitate the catalytic conversion for sodium-iodine batteries. The spin state of Co is modulated by altering the oxidation state of the porphyrin-centered Co, achieving optimal catalysis for iodine reduction.

This study aims to systematically assess the prevalence and dynamics of female UI in China, and can inform further policies and have international implications. This study used three nationwide investigations: A national cross-sectional survey in 2021; another nationwide cross-sectional survey in 2006; and data regarding the institutions and physicians providing pelvic floor rehabilitation services from 2005 to 2019.

Subsequently, the biomass charcoal underwent high-temperature calcination with varying impregnation ratios of KOH : BC for different durations in tubular furnaces set at different temperatures. The resultant biomass charcoal was then subjected to hydrothermal treatment with FeCl·6HO to produce biochar/iron oxide composites.

In this study, we prepared Pt and bamboo charcoal co-modified nano-TiO using a one-pot hydrothermal process and applied it to detect formaldehyde. The successful incorporation of the precious metal Pt and bamboo charcoal onto TiO was confirmed by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometer, X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

Methods: A total of 9829 eligible women aged 21-64 years from Henan, Shanxi, and Guangdong provinces were performed by HBRT-H14 testing and liquid-based cytology (LBC) screening at baseline and followed up for 3-year. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (absolute risk), and negative predictive value of LBC diagnosis and HPV testing were calculated for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or worse (CIN2+) Lesions.
The aminated sodium lignosulfonate (AELS) was prepared through a Mannich reaction and characterized via FT-IR, TG, SEM and XPS in this study. Subsequently, the adsorption capacity of AELS for methyl blue (MB) was evaluated under various conditions such as pH, adsorbent dosage, contact time, initial concentration and temperature. The adsorption kinetics, isotherms and thermodynamics of AELS for methyl blue were investigated and analyzed.

Small molecule drugs containing morpholine-based moieties have become crucial candidates in the tumor targeted therapy strategies, but the specific molecular mechanisms of these drugs causing tumor cell death require further investigation. The morpholine derivative N-(4-morpholinomethylene)ethanesulfonamide (MESA) was used to stimulate prostate and ovarian cancer cells and we focused on the ferroptosis effects, including the target molecule and signal pathways mediated by MESA. The results showed that MESA could induce ferroptosis to cause the proliferation inhibition and apoptosis effects of tumor cells according to the identification of ferroptosis inhibitor fer-1 and other cell death inhibitors.
