ABSTRACT
Cervical cancer is a serious threat to women's life and health. Studies have shown that the incidence of cervical cancer in China ranks second in the world. With increasing application of cervical cancer screening technology, cervical cancer mortality shows a downward trend, but the incidence of cervical cancer in young women shows an upward trend. The affected population tends to be young. Young women are the population at high risk for a human papillomavirus (HPV) infection because they have high levels of estrogen and active sexual behavior. Persistent high-risk HPV infection is the key factor that promotes development of precancerous lesions toward cervical cancer. This paper reviews the clinical characteristics of HPV infection in young women and the research progress in diagnosis and treatment strategy of precancerous lesions.
ABSTRACT
Background and Objective: With the aggravation of global aging, benign prostate hyperplasia tends to have a higher incidence and has been the most common disease in urinary surgery. It is usually treated by surgery. Our objective was to select an effective treatment scheme, the clinical efficacy and relevant indicators of transurethral balloon dilatation of the prostate [TUDP] and transurethral plasmakinetic resection of the prostate [PKRP] in the treatment of benign prostate hyperplasia were emphatically compared
Methods: Ninety-eight patients with benign prostate hyperplasia who were admitted to the hospital of between May 2014 and July 2016 were selected and divided into a TUDP group [n=49] and PKRP [n=49] using random number table. The intraoperative blood loss, duration of surgery, international prostate symptom score [IPSS], quality of life [QOL], post-void residual urine [PVR] and complications of the two groups were observed
Results: The results demonstrated that the postoperative blood loss and duration of surgery of the patients in the PKRP group were significantly higher than those of the TUDP group [P<0.05]; the IPSS, QOL and PVR of the patients in the two groups after surgery were much lower than those before surgery [P<0.05]; the IPSS, QOL and PVR of the patients in the PKRP group were significantly lower than those in the TUDP group after surgery [P<0.05]. The incidence of postoperative complications of the PKRP group was 38.8%, which was apparently higher than 14.3% in the TUDP group [P<0.05]
Conclusion: PKRP has better efficacy than TUDP in treating benign prostatic hyperplasia, but QOL was poor and there are many complications. Proper surgical procedure should be selected according to the specific disease condition of patients
