Uterine prolapse is a rare complication of pregnancy, and there is still no consensus on the choice of delivery method. ⋯ For pregnancy with uterine prolapse and cervical incarceration, transvaginal delivery is a potential treatment option. Maintenance of cervical retraction and oral mifepristone administration with misoprostol tablets is crucial during this delivery. This treatment can minimize the risk of cervical lacerations and uterine rupture, helping surgeons to complete the operation successfully.

Intestinal nontuberculous mycobacteriosis due to nontuberculous mycobacteria infection has clinical manifestations similar to intestinal tuberculosis and inflammatory bowel disease, causing difficulties in clinical diagnosis. ⋯ This study reported a patient with an intestinal nontuberculous mycobacteriosis diagnosed by colonoscopy biopsy and nucleotide-based MALDI-TOF MS, and symptoms were relieved after antimycobacterial treatment.

The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to identify the current awareness about cervical cancer prevention among rural women in Luohe City as well as its potential influencing factors. Meanwhile, these data were expected to provide a theoretical basis for Luohe future cervical cancer prevention and therapy. Based on geographical distribution, 40 villages in Luohe City were randomly selected, and questionnaires were given to women in each village. ⋯ However, ethnicity, marital status, and spouse education level were not correlated with cognitive level (P > .05). In conclusion, low awareness of cervical cancer prevention among rural women in Luohe was correlated with individual, family, and social factors. So it was recommended to cultivate the rural population knowledge, optimize screening strategies, and conduct targeted cervical cancer prevention and treatment in rural regions.

Case Reports
Postoperative recurrence of diffuse sclerosing thyroid cancer in an adolescent patient: A case report.
Papillary thyroid cancer is an inert malignant tumor with a good response to surgical treatment, low recurrence and metastasis rate, and good prognosis. Diffuse sclerosing thyroid cancer is an invasive subtype that is more common in young people, with a higher rate of lymph node metastasis and recurrence, and a relatively poor prognosis. ⋯ As diffuse sclerosing thyroid cancer is prone to lymph node and recurrent metastases, once it is diagnosed, radical treatment should be actively performed. Postoperative adjuvant radiation therapy should be administered according to the patient condition and regular follow-ups should be conducted to monitor neck lymph node metastasis.

Traditional observational and in vivo studies have suggested an etiological link between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and the development of extraesophageal diseases (EEDs), such as noncardiac chest pain. However, evidence demonstrating potential causal relationships is lacking. This study evaluated the potential causal relationship between GERD and EEDs, including throat and chest pain, asthma, bronchitis, chronic rhinitis, nasopharyngitis and pharyngitis, gingivitis and periodontal disease, cough, using multiple Mendelian randomization (MR) methods, and sensitivity analysis was performed. ⋯ The funnel plot considers the genetic instrumental variables to be almost symmetrically distributed. This MR supports a causal relationship among GERD and EEDs. Precise moderation based on causality and active promotion of collaboration among multidisciplinary physicians ensure high-quality diagnostic and treatment recommendations and maximize patient benefit.
