In medical physiology experiment courses, the students observe the functions and learn the rules of biological body, in order to improve their abilities of scientific observation, practice and reflection. Emotion control means willpower to manage emotion, which is the regular psychological response when we deal with issues. Integrating the emotion control education to professional education is imperative to elevate the general quality of medical students.

Objective To investigate the incidence and the risk factors of anxiety or depression and in the first degree relatives (FDRs) of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus ( T2DM ). Methods A total of 102 T2DM patients who visited our hospital from May to July 2010 and their FDRs completed SAS,SDS,and life satisfaction evaluation. The medical history of T2DM patients was collected and compared with their FDRs with or without mental disorders. The correlations of risk factors with anxiety or depression were analyzed, t test or X2 test were used for statistical analysis and a P value less than 0. 05 was considered statistically significant. Results The incidence of anxiety or depression of FDRs was 31.4% and 17.6%,respectively. The life satisfaction score of FDRs with mental disorders was significantly decreased ( t = 4. 26 and 4. 09, P＜0. 05 ). Fasting glucose level of T2DM patients with anxious or depressive FDRs was significantly increased ( t = -2. 48 and -2. 15, P＜0. 05 ). Higher medical cost and multiple treatment strategies were positively correlated with SAS and SDS score of the FDRs. Conclusion Higher incidence of mental disorders and lower satisfaction scores could be found in the FDRs of T2DM patients. Better control of blood glucose and reduced treatment cost and strategies may be useful in improving metal condition and life satisfaction of the FDRs of T2DM patients.

Objective To evaluate the effective of weight loss on blood glucose,lipid profile,and blood pressure in over-weight or obesity patients combined with impaired glucose tolerance(IGT).Methods Body weight of 91 over-weight or obesity IGT patients were managed by doctors and nurses.Body weight,waist circumference,blood glucose,lipid profile,blood pressure and liver function of the patients were compared at 3 months with baseline.Results After 3 months' intervention,the levels of body weight,waist circumference,fasting plasma glucose,postprandial glucose,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,and glutamie oxalacetie transaminase (COT),instead of triglyeeride and hish-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),were significantly reduced.Over weight or obesity IGT patients saw a 1.8 and 2.3 kg body weight loss,respectively.Decreased plasma glucose and blood pressure were found both in the over-weight group and in the obesity groups,but decreased waist circumference and GOT were found only in the over-weight patients.Conclusions Body-weight control may improve the blood glucose,blood pressure,central obesity,or fatty liver in over weight or obesity IGT patients.For those obesity patients,longer and stronger body weight control should be needed.

Objective To explore the risk factors of hidden blood loss after UKA.Methods A retrospec-tive study was conducted on 273 patients who underwent UKA from January 2015 to December 2016,including 79 males and 194 females,age between 46 to 87 years old,mean age(67.21± 8.23)years old. The clinical data were collected and the blood volume was calculated according to the Nadler formula. The Gross equation was used to calculate the blood loss and the amount of occult blood loss at 3 days after operation. The risk factors were analyzed statistically. Results The volume of hidden blood loss after operation was(75.36 ± 10.21)mL,and the volume of total blood lost after operation was(187.35± 60.31)mL.Sex,BMI and type of prosthesis were risk factors for hidden blood loss after UKA. Conclusions The volume of hidden blood loss after UKA was related to sex, BMI,and type of prosthesis. For the obese and male patients,we should actively take bleeding management and choose the type of prosthesis reasonably.

To investigate the effects of Mycobacterium tuberculosis heat shock protein 65(HSP65)on Treg/Th17 immune balance in ApoE-knockout(ApoE-/-)mice, ApoE-/- mice with a high-cholesterol diet were immunized with M. tuberculosis HSP65. Sera were obtained for measurement of anti-HSP65 antibodies by ELISA; the effect of administration of different antigens was investigated, respectively, using flow cytometry analysis on the number of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Tregs and CD4+IL-17+ Th17; the production of cytokines(IL-10, TGF-β1, IL-17 and IL-21)by these cells were determined by ELISA; total plasma cholesterol(TC), triglyceride(TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)levels were detected by biochemical autoanalyzer. Atherosclerotic lesions were measured by lipid deposition stained with oil red O. The results demonstrated that the levels of anti-HSP65 IgG antibodies were increased significantly in Mycobacterium tuberculosis HSP65-treated ApoE-/- mice, revealed obvious decrease in Treg number, Treg related cytokines(IL-10, TGF-β1)levels and significant increase in Th17 number, Th17 related cytokines(IL-17 and IL-21)levels, the levels of TC, TG, HDL-C and LDL-C did not change between groups, while the atherosclerotic lesions significantly increased. Results indicate that M. tuberculosis HSP65 could interrupt the Th17/Treg immune balance in ApoE-/- mice, suggesting a potential role in the formation and progression of atherosclerosis.

Objective:In this study, the role of IL-17 in the pathogenesis of idiopathic myositis (IIM) was preliminarily investigated by detecting the expression of IL-17 in the muscle tissues of patients with idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM) and normal controls.Methods:Twenty-eight patients (20 in DM group with dermatomyositis and 8 in ASS group with anti-synthase syndrome) who were diagnosed with IIM after muscle biopsy and autoantibody detection in our hospital for the first time from October 2019 to August 2021 were included. Twelve cases with normal muscle tissue matched for age and sex were included as the control group. Western blot and immunohistochemical techniques were used to detect the expression level of IL-17 in muscle tissue, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect serum IL-6. Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used to compare the difference of IL-17 expression in muscle tissue between the two groups, and non-parametric test was used for comparison between multiple groups. Chi-square test and Spearman rank correlation analysis were used, and P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:① The expression level of IL-17 in IIM muscle tissue[1.63(1.30, 2.05)pg/ml was higher than that in control group[1.00(0.96, 1.00)pg/ml, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-3.52, P<0.001). The difference be-tween DM[1.94(1.58, 2.14)pg/ml] and ASS[1.22(1.04,1.55)pg/ml was statistically significant ( Z=-3.20, P=0.001). ② Compared with healthy control group [4.08(3.01, 5.67)pg/ml, the expression of IL-6 in ⅡM serum[8.88(4.93, 13.64) was high ( Z=-3.01, P=0.003), which was positively correlated with the expression of IL-17 ( r=0.42, P=0.027). ③ The ex-pression of IL-17 in muscle tissue was higher in IIM associated with muscle weakness[1.91(1.56, 2.14) pg/ml vs 1.50(1.04, 2.00)pg/ml] ( Z=-1.38, P=0.020), dysphagia [2.06(1.99, 2.14)pg/ml vs 1.62(1.52, 2.04)pg/ml] ( Z=-2.74, P=0.010) and skin involvement[1.98(1.57, 2.14)pg/ml vs 1.04(0.86, 1.61)pg/ml] ( Z=-3.20, P<0.010), and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). ④IL-17 was positively correlated with Myoact-total activity ( r=0.51, P=0.006), Myoact-muscle symptom ( r=0.45, P=0.016), erythrocyte sedimen tation ( r=0.48, P=0.020), and myoenzyme increase ( r=0.56, P=0.002). Conclusion:IL-17 and IL-6 are synergistically involved in the pathogenesis of IIM, suggesting that IL-17 is the therapeutic target of IIM.

Urorectal septum malformation sequence (URSMS) is a rare congenital complex malformation characterized by severe abnormalities in the urinary, reproductive and digestive systems. It is difficult to diagnose URSMS by prenatal ultrasound due to its complex and variable manifestations. This paper reported a twin with partial URSMS. Prenatal ultrasound findings included pelvic "trilobe" cystic masses, sacrococcygeal hemivertebral malformations, imperforate anus, and transient ascites. Postnatal examination confirmed the diagnosis of URSMS, as the baby girl was born with anal atresia. Her colon, urethra, and vagina converged and formed a common tract with a single perineal opening. The baby died after her parents' refusal to surgical treatment.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of IA regimen which contains idarubicin (IDA) 8 mg/m², 10 mg/m² or 12 mg/m² as induction chemotherapy for adult patients with de-novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) . Methods: A total of 1 215 newly diagnosed adult AML patients, ranging from May 2011 to March 2015 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and other 36 clinical blood centers in China were enrolled in the multicenter, single-blind, non-randomized, clinical controlled study. To compare the response rate of complete remission (CR) , adverse events between different dose idarubicin combined with cytarabine (100 mg/m²) as induction chemotherapy in newly diagnosed patients of adult AML. Results: Of 1 207 evaluable AML patients were assigned to this analysis of CR rate. The CR rates of IDA 8 mg/m² group, IDA 10 mg/m² group and IDA 12 mg/m² group were 73.6% (215/292) , 84.1% (662/787) and 86.7% (111/128) , respectively (P<0.001) . After adjusted for age, blast ratio of bone marrow, FAB classification and risk stratification, the odds ratios (95% CI) of IDA 10 mg/m² group and IDA 12 mg/m² group were 0.49 (0.34-0.70) and 0.36 (0.18-0.71) , as compared with the IDA 8 mg/m² group (P<0.001, P=0.003) . In the intermediate and favorable groups, CR rates was 76.5% (163/213) , 86.9% (506/582) and 86.1% (68/79) in different doses of IDA (P=0.007) . Interestingly, IA regimen with IDA 10 mg/m² was the only beneficial factor affecting CR in this group after adjusted for age, blast ratio of bone marrow and FAB classification[OR=0.47 (95% CI 0.31-0.71) , P<0.001]. CR rates in adverse group was 50.0% (18/36) , 60.6% (43/71) and 81.8% (18/22) respectively (P=0.089) . However, the odds ratios (95% CI) of IDA 12 mg/m² when compared with the IDA 8 mg/m² was 0.22 (0.06-0.80) , after adjusted for age, blast ratio of bone marrow and FAB classification. The median time (days) of neutrophil count less than 0.5×10⁹/L in IDA 8 mg/m² group, IDA 10 mg/m² group and IDA 12 mg/m² group were 14 (11-18) , 15 (11-20) and 18 (14-22) , respectively (P=0.012) and of platelet count lower than 20×10⁹/L were 14 (7-17) , 15 (11-20) and 17 (15-21) , respectively (P=0.001) . The incidences of lung infection in the three groups were 9.8%, 13.5% and 25.2%, respectively (P<0.001) . Conclusions For young adult patients (aged 18-60 years) with AML in China, intensifying induction therapy with idarubicin 10 mg/m² is clinically superior to IDA 8 mg/m² and IDA 12 mg/m² in favorable intermediate AML subgroup. However, idarubicin 12 mg/m² is more suitable to adverse AML subgroup.
