HPV Infection Prevalence, Vaccination-Related Knowledge, Attitudes, and Barriers Among Women Aged 30-64 in Shenzhen, China: A Cross-Sectional Study.

: the distribution of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, vaccination rates, and awareness levels varies across China. : this study examined HPV infection prevalence, vaccine uptake, and barriers among 2440 women aged 30-64 in Shenzhen, China, using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) to analyze associated factors. : The overall HPV prevalence was 14.

Gestational diabetes risk associated with early pregnancy blood pressure characteristics and trajectories: A Chinese prospective cohort study.

Background: Limited evidence exists regarding early pregnancy pulse pressure (PP) and blood pressure (BP) trajectories in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) development. Understanding these associations may provide valuable insights for early interventions to mitigate the risk of GDM.

Methods: Included were 16 020 pregnant women from the Shenzhen Maternity and Child Healthcare Hospital.

Exposure to low concentrations of PM and its constituents with preterm birth in Shenzhen, China: a retrospective cohort study.

Background: Due to the Air Pollution Prevention and Control Measures issued by the Chinese government, air quality has significantly improved, particularly with respect to PM. However, studies on the relationship between low concentrations of PM and preterm birth (PTB) remain limited in China.

Objective: To examine the associations between low concentrations of PM and its constituents and PTB.

Microplastic Particles Detected in Fetal Cord Blood, Placenta, and Meconium: A Pilot Study of Nine Mother-Infant Pairs in South China.

Microplastics (MPs) are emerging environmental pollutants. Pregnancy and infancy are sensitive windows for environmental exposure. However, few studies have investigated the presence of MPs in mother-infant pairs, or the exposure source.

Periodic, n-soliton and variable separation solutions for an extended (3+1)-dimensional KP-Boussinesq equation.

An extended (3+1)-dimensional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-Boussinesq equation is studied in this paper to construct periodic solution, n-soliton solution and folded localized excitation. Firstly, with the help of the Hirota's bilinear method and ansatz, some periodic solutions have been derived. Secondly, taking Burgers equation as an auxiliary function, we have obtained n-soliton solution and n-shock wave.

Association of Famine Exposure on the Changing Clinical Phenotypes of Primary Hyperparathyroidism in 20 years.

Background & Aims: Primary hyperparathyroidism(PHPT) has been evolving into a milder asymptomatic disease. No study has assessed the association between famine exposure and such a shift. We aim to explore the effects of China's Great Famine exposure on the changing pattern of PHPT phenotypes.

Factors That Affect the Sensitivity of Imaging Modalities in Primary Hyperparathyroidism.

Background: Cervical ultrasound, Tc-sestamibi single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (Tc-MIBI SPECT/CT), and cervical CT are routinely used in preoperative localization of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). However, false-negative imaging results are also frequently encountered in clinical practice. Exploring the factors that affect the sensitivity of these imaging modalities is important for the surgical management of PHPT patients.

The Associations of Serum Osteocalcin and Cortisol Levels With the Psychological Performance in Primary Hyperparathyroidism Patients.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate factors responsible for the psychological performance in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) patients.

Methods: A group of 38 PHPT patients receiving questionnaires, including Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36), was evaluated. The relationships between scores of questionnaires and clinical biomarkers were examined.

The browning of white adipose tissue and body weight loss in primary hyperparathyroidism.

Background: Parathyroid hormone related protein (PTHrP) triggers white adipose tissue (WAT) browning and cachexia in lung cancer mouse models. It remains unknown whether excessive PTH secretion affects WAT browning and to what extent it contributes to body weight change in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT).

Methods: Using the adeno-associated virus injection, Pth gene over-expressed mice mimicking PHPT were firstly established to observe their WAT browning and body weight alteration.
