The reasons why some medical treatment facilities (MTF) can not be repaired and returned on time in some medical therapy units are explained. Countermeasures are put forward: repairing and supervising mechanisms must be established between the medical therapy units and factories in time; professional maintainers can be asked to repair MTF or cooperate with technicians in hospital when necessary so as to keep MTF in good condition.

Three-way laryngeal mask airway (tLMA) was used in 31 patients aged 4-68 yr, weighing 10- 79 kg undergoing tracheal foreign body removal under general anesthesia. Anesthesia was induced with propofol 3 mg/kg, vecuronium 0.12 mg/kg and remifentanil 0.4 μg/kg. tLMA was inserted. The patients were mechanically ventilated. Anesthesia was maintained with iv infusion of propofol 2 mg . Kg-1 ? H-1, vecuronium 0.08 mg·kg-1·h-1 and remifentanil 0.15 μg·kg-1 ·min-1 . Radial artery was cannulated for BP monitoring and blood sampling. The operation time was 6-34 min and mechanical ventilation time 19-45 min. There was no significant change in SP, DP, HR, VT, Ppeak and Ppeak CO, during operation as compared with the baseline values before anesthesia. SpO2 was significantly increased at T2-6. PCO2, PO2 and O2sat were obviously improved after tLMA was used. All the patients emerged bom anesthesia within 30 min after operation. No aspiration, obvious gastrointestinal inflation, and pharyngeal and laryngeal edema and injury occurred. Mild agitation occurred in a short time during the recovery period in one patient. No complication occurred.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the value of single sperm sequencing in preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disease (PGT-M). METHODS: A Chinese couple with two children whom had died of Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and attended the Jiangxi Provincial Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital in June 2020 was selected as the subject. Eleven single sperm samples were isolated by mechanical immobilization and subjected to whole genome amplification. Real-time PCR and Sanger sequencing were used to detect the SMN1 variants in the single sperm samples. Genomic DNA of the wife, her parents and the husband, as well as one single sperm sample harboring the SMN1 variant and two single sperm samples without the variant were used for the linkage analysis. Targeted capture and high-throughput sequencing were carried out to test 100 single nucleotide polymorphisms distributed within 2 Mb up- and downstream the variant site. The haplotypes linked with the SMN1 variants were determined by linkage analysis. Blastocyst embryos were harvested after fertilizing by intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Cells from the trophoblasts of each embryo were biopsied and subjected to whole genome amplification and targeted capture and high-throughput sequencing to determine their carrier status. Chromosomal aneuploidy of wild-type embryos was excluded. An euploid embryo of high quality was transferred. Amniotic fluid sample was taken at 18 weeks of gestation to confirm the status of the fetus. RESULTS: Genetic testing showed that the couple both had deletion of exons 7 ~ 8 of the SMN1 gene. The wife has inherited the deletion from her father, while the husband was de novo. The haplotypes of the husband were successfully constructed by single sperm sequencing. Preimplantation genetic testing has indicated that 5 embryos had harbored the heterozygous variant, 4 embryos were of the wild type, among which 3 were euploid. Prenatal diagnosis during the second trimester of pregnancy has confirmed that the fetus did not carry the deletion. CONCLUSION By single sperm sequencing and PGT-M, the birth of further affected child has been successfully avoided.

OBJECTIVE：To study the mechanism of Periplaneta americana extract degreasing cream and CⅡ-3（shorted for “degreasing cream ”and“CⅡ-3”）reversing the multi-drug resistance of human HepG 2/ADM cells. METHODS ：MTT assay was used to investigate the toxicity effects of different concentrations of sorafenib （positive control ），degreasing cream and C Ⅱ-3 on HepG2/ADM cells ，then IC 20 was calculated. The experiment was divided into sensitivity drug ，drug-resistance group ，sorafenib group，degreasing cream group and C Ⅱ-3 group. HepG 2 cells were included in sensitivity group ，and HepG 2/ADM cells were included in the latter 4 groups. Sensitivity group and drug-resistance group were treated with routine medium ，and other 3 groups were treated with relevant medicine （IC20 as drug concentration ）. The content of ADM in HepG 2/ADM cells was determined by Laser scanning confocal microscopy. The expression of apoptosis-related protein as Bcl- 2 and Cleaved-Caspase- 9 p37 were detected by Western blotting assay. RT-qPCR and immunocytochemistry were adopted to detect mRNA and protein expressions that related to multidrug resistance [P-gp （expression produce of MDR1 gene），LRP，BCRP] and that related to enzyme-mediated multidrug resistance pathway （GST-π and Topo Ⅱ）. RESULTS ：The IC 20 of degreasing cream ，CⅡ-3 and sorafenib were （2.40±0.16）， （200.44±27.52），（18.00±1.82）μg/mL，respectively. Compared with sensitivity group ，the protein expressions of Bcl- 2，P-gp， LRP，BCRP and Topo Ⅱ，the mRNA expressions of MDR 1， LRP，BCRP and GST-π were increased significantly in drug resistance group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with @qq.com drug-resistance group ，the mRNA and protein expression of MDR1 mRNA and LRP ，BCRP，GST-π were significantly decreased in degreasing cream group and C Ⅱ-3 group（P＜ 0.05 or P＜0.01）；the protein expression of Bcl- 2 and the mRNA expression of Topo Ⅱ were significantly decreased （P＜0.01）， while the protein expression level of Cleaved-Caspase- 9 p37 was significantly increased in C Ⅱ -3 group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS：Degreasing cream and C Ⅱ-3 can reverse multidrug resistance of HepG 2/ADM cells by reducing drug efflux ， promoting cell apoptosis ，reducing the mRNA and protein expression of multi-drug resistance gene as well as gene in enzyme-mediated multi-drug resistance pathway. The effect of C Ⅱ-3 is better than that of degreasing cream.
