Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The study participants are patients with uterine fibroids and healthy physical examination subjects from the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University (Shandong Qianfoshan Hospital). The main purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation between uterine fibroids and vaginal microecology and cervical local immune function in patients of childbearing age.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Diagnostic Test: Microscopic examination of vaginal discharge

Detailed Description

(1) In this study, 150 women of childbearing age who are diagnosed with uterine fibroids in the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University (Shandong Qianfoshan Hospital) are selected as the study group; The differences of vaginal microenvironment and cervical local immune function are compared between 150 healthy women of childbearing age in the same period. (2) After the patients are enrolled, the general information (age, height, weight), menstrual status (age of menarche, menstrual period, cycle, bleeding pattern), clinical manifestations (abnormal uterine bleeding, infertility, abdominal pain), and previous medical history (hypertension, thyroid disease, etc.) of 150 patients with uterine fibroids will be collected. After the end of the first part of the experiment, 150 patients with uterine fibroids will be grouped according to vaginal microecological diagnosis, and the clinical characteristics of patients with uterine fibroids will be analyzed and compared.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
study group

Age 20-49 years old; Premenopausal; Clinical diagnosis of uterine myoma; Cervical liquid-based cytology and human papillomavirus typing test are negative.

Diagnostic Test: Microscopic examination of vaginal discharge
Using gram-stained smears to detect vaginal secretions, and then the concentration and diversity of bacterial flora are observed using a microscope.

Healthy control group

Age 20-49 years old; Premenopausal; Uterine B-ultrasonography is normal; Cervical liquid-based cytology and human papillomavirus typing test are negative; No vaginal infection.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Bacterial vaginitis (BV) of vaginal microecosystem-150 people in each group [through study completion, an average of 2.5 year]

    Nugent score is currently an internationally accepted diagnostic method for BV. Lactobacillus, Gardnerella vaginalis, bacterioid bacteria and campylobacter with variable staining are evaluated by Gram staining and semi-quantitative evaluation method. The total score is the sum of the scores of the above 4 bacteria. 0 to 3 points: normal; 4 ~ 6 points: intermediate BV; ≥7 points: BV
