Objective: The prevalence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) in pregnancy is about 1%. The aim of this study was to analyze the regression, persistence and progression rates of cervical dysplasia in pregnancy and the impact of delivery mode.
Study Design: In this retrospective study, data from pregnant patients with abnormal cytology findings, who presented to a colposcopic outpatient clinic of a university hospital within the last 10 years, were analyzed. Information on cytology, histology and Human Papillomavirus (HPV) status during pregnancy and postpartum and mode of delivery was collected.
Results: 219 women, who were assessed with cytology and /or biopsy antepartum and postpartum between January 2010 and July 2020, were included in the study. Antepartum patients presented with low grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL) in 37% and high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) in 53%. During pregnancy biopsy was performed in 78 patients (36%). Postpartum evaluation revealed an overall regression rate of 39%. Persistence rates were especially high in the HSIL group with 70 %. HSIL regressed in 28 %. Progression to invasive disease was rare and seen in two patients postpartum only. 141 women delivered vaginally (VD) and 51 received a cesarean section (CS). Regression rates were similar: 36 % and 47 %. There was no significant difference in progression or persistence rates.
Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that mode of delivery does not influence the course of SIL. SIL show high rates of regression and persistence, progression to invasive disease is rare.

This study organically integrates the safety, quality, cost, delivery, and people (SQCDP) management mode and lean management to create the SQCDP + lean safety management (SLSM) mode, which addresses certain problems faced by China's small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), such as imperfect safety management systems, poor regulatory implementation, challenging problem correction, and perfunctory management. It then explains the benefits proposed mode for SMEs and the establishment of a novel mode that aligns with the current safety production and operation management of SMEs. The application of the SLSM mode to a private machinery manufacturing company in Wenzhou resulted in the effective shouldering of safety responsibilities by the company, a year-on-year decrease in accident rates, and a significant increase in production efficiency, thereby providing corporate managers with guidance and suggestions for making improvements.

Objectives: To develop and validate a nomogram to predict severe postpartum hemorrhage following cesarean delivery.
Methods: This is a two-center retrospective cohort study. Cesarean delivery patients from the First Affiliate Hospital of Jinan University were divided into a development cohort (n = 11 137) and an internal validation cohort (n = 4739).

Orodispersible film (ODF) is one of the novel formulations that disintegrate rapidly in the mouth without the requisite for water compared to other conventional oral solid dosage formulations. This delivery system serves as a convenient mode of administration, especially in patients who have dysphagia and fluid restriction, being beneficial to pediatric, geriatric, and bedridden patients. A novel sildenafil ODF containing sildenafil citrate is formulated to be used in patients with erectile dysfunction (ED).

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has revolutionized healthcare by bringing real-time monitoring and data-driven treatments. Nevertheless, the security of communication between IoMT devices and servers remains a huge problem because of the inherent sensitivity of the health data and susceptibility to cyber threats. Current security solutions, including simple password-based authentication and standard Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) approaches, typically do not achieve an appropriate balance between security and low computational overhead, resulting in the possibility of performance bottlenecks and increased vulnerability to attacks.
