简介：AbstractObjective:To elucidate the epidermal melanocyte distribution according to sex, age, and body part with the goal of providing benchmark data for the diagnosis and therapeutic effect evaluation of pigmentary skin diseases.Methods:Epidermal melanocytes and keratinocytes were assessed using direct immunofluorescence staining, and the melanocyte density and epidermal thickness were calculated. The obtained data were statistically analyzed using SPSS Version 20.0 software. An independent-samples t test was used to compare the data between two groups, while data among three or more groups were compared by one-way analysis of variance. Data correlations were evaluated using Pearson correlation analysis.Results:Melanocytes were uniformly distributed among the keratinocytes in the basal layer, and the average ratio of melanocytes to keratinocytes was 1:7. Among them, the ratio in males was 1:6.5 and that in females was 1:7.4, with no significant difference (P= 0.127). The melanocyte density gradually declined as age increased; the ratio was 1:5.8 before 50 years of age without an obvious downtrend. The average melanocyte density was 1:7.9 within 51 to 65 years of age and 1:8.5 at >65 years of age, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.01). Obvious differences were found in the melanocyte density among different body parts; in descending order, these densities were as follows: face (1:4.0) >neck (1:5.1) >hip (1:5.7) >upper limb (1:7.4) >lower limb (1:8.3) >lower back (1:9.2) >thorax and abdomen (1:9.9). The melanocyte density was not related to the epidermal thickness.Conclusion:The melanocyte density showed a declining trend with age and significantly changed after 50 years of age. The melanocyte density was associated with body part; specifically, the density in the face, neck, and hip was higher than that in the limbs and torso. However, the melanocyte density was not associated with sex or epidermal thickness.

简介：AbstractObjective:Salivary gland tumors account for 6%-8% of head and neck neoplasms with the parotid gland as the most common primary site. Pleomorphic adenomas (PA) are considered the most common benign parotid gland neoplasms, followed by Warthin tumors (WT). The goal of this study was to investigate the distribution of parotid gland neoplasms among a United States veteran population.Design:Retrospective chart review.Setting:Washington DC Veterans Affairs Medical Center.Participants:Veterans who underwent fine needle aspiration (FNA) for a parotid gland mass from 2000 to 2018 were included. Medical records were reviewed for gender, age, tobacco use, surgery date, and pathology results.Main outcome measures:Changes in the distribution of parotid neoplasms and tobacco use over an 18-year period.Results:Of 141 patients with parotid gland masses, 86.5% (n = 122) were benign, 9.9% (n = 14) were malignant, and 3.5% (n = 5) were indeterminate. Of benign tumors, WT accounted for the majority at 51.6%, followed by PA at 40.2%. When stratified by decade (2000-2009 and 2010-2018), the proportion of WT compared to all other benign and malignant neoplasms increased from 31.6% to 53.6%, whereas the proportion of PA decreased from 36.8% to 33.3%. The rate of tobacco use was unchanged at approximately 32.0% among our cohort from 2000 to 2018.Conclusion:Among our cohort of veteran patients, WT was the most common benign parotid tumor and has increased in incidence over the last two decades despite an unchanged smoking rate.

简介：AbstractBackground:Cervical cancer remains a major public health issue for the Uyghur women and other women living mainly in rural areas of Xinjiang. This study aims to investigate the distribution of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and cervical cancer in rural areas of Xinjiang, China.Methods:Cervical cancer screening was performed on rural women aged 35 to 64 years from Xinjiang, China in 2017 through gynecological examination, vaginal discharge smear microscopy, cytology, and HPV testing. If necessary, colposcopy and biopsy were performed on women with suspicious or abnormal screening results.Results:Of the 216,754 women screened, 15,518 received HPV testing. The HPV-positive rate was 6.75% (1047/15,518). Compared with the age 35-44 years group, the odds ratios (ORs) of HPV positivity in the age 45-54 years and 55-64 years groups were 1.18 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.02-1.37) and 1.84 (95% CI: 1.53-2.21), respectively. Compared with women with primary or lower education level, the ORs for HPV infection rates of women with high school and college education or above were 1.37 (95% CI: 1.09-1.72) and 1.62 (95% CI: 1.23-2.12), respectively. Uyghur women were less likely to have HPV infection than Han women, with an OR (95% CI) of 0.78 (0.61-0.99). The most prevalent HPV types among Xinjiang women were HPV 16 (24.00%), HPV 33 (12.70%), and HPV 52 (11.80%). The detection rate of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)2+ was 0.14% and the early diagnosis rate of cervical cancer was 85.91%. The detection rates of vaginitis and cervicitis were 19.28% and 21.32%, respectively.Conclusions:The HPV infection rate in Xinjiang is low, but the detection rate of cervical cancer and precancerous lesions is higher than the national average level. Cervical cancer is a prominent public health problem in Xinjiang, especially in southern Xinjiang.
