Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2021;20(1):50-53
Objective:To investigate the value and effectiveness of the case-based learning assisted by several internet platforms for medical interns in interactive teaching for undergraduate students in the clerkship of cardiovascular surgery.Methods:Ninety-six undergraduates were randomly divided into control group ( n = 48) and experiment group ( n = 48). The control group received traditional teaching, and the experiment group received case-based learning with the aid of WeChat and Sojump questionnaires. The theoretical and clinic operating scores, classroom atmosphere, learning interest, learning efficiency, learning ability improvement, theoretical knowledge mastery and clinical skills improvement were were compared between the two groups. SPSS 19.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:The clinic operating scores, classroom atmosphere, learning interest, learning efficiency, learning ability improvement, theoretical knowledge mastery and clinical skills improvement were statistically higher in experiment group than in control group ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:The application of case-based learning combined with internet platforms has achieved a good teaching effect in interactive teaching for undergraduate students in the clerkship of cardiovascular surgery and is worthy of popularizing.

[Objective]To test and prove the mushroom shaped surface prosthesis of femoral head not only can be a weight-bearing device,but also could reduce stress-shelter and achieve long-term stability.[Method]A simplified three-dimensional model of femoral head was made.And the biomechanics of femoral head were compared by finite element analysis in two states:with and without the replacement.[Result]It showed that the maximum of strees in famoral head was less than 40Mpa,consequently the replacement had sufficient strength to meet its basic function.Furthermore,the prosthesis bear the force both at up part and down.Therefore it reduced stress-shelter.[Conclusion]This prosthesis can achieve immediate and long-term stability.And it provides new ideas for designing the femoral head resurfacing prosthesis.

Objective To evaluate retrospectively whether posterior longitudinal ligament(PLL)adhere to dura mater in the patients with cervical spondylotie myelopathy(CSM)or not before the anterior cervical operation.Methods From December 2005 to January 2007,of 18 patients with CSM the adhesion between PLL and dura mater was found in the anterior cervical operation.The patients included of 11 males and 7 females,with mean age of 65.4 years (range 55-72 years).All the patients were measured by CT and MRI before operation.There were 12 cases of dual-segmental cervical intervertebral disc herniation,6 of tri-segmental disc herniation.The former cases were treated with one level corpectomy and titanium mesh or iliac grafting and cervical anterior plate,and the latter with an additional cervical cage in the intervertebralspace.The floatation method was used to deal with the adhesion.The fitness between the two radiological methods was analyzed by matched-pairs Kappa eoemcient test.Results The nerve functions of all the patients were improved after anterior cervieal decompression.The mean score of JOA was increased from 9.6 of pre-operation to 12.1 of post-operation.There were 4 cases with injury in dura mater,which healed after appropriate dealing with the leakage of cerebrospinal fluid.None of lacerated dura was directly repaired during the operation.The condition of the coarse touch and bur between intervertebral disc and dura mater were found in CT transverse scanning.The thickening of the PLL and the unsymmetrical space between inferior and superior subdural cavity was found in MRI.The coefficient test proved that the difference of the CT and MRI was significant in finding the adhesion.Conclusion MRI iS better than CT in finding the adhesion between the PLL and dura mater in CSM before operation,besides the floatation method should be good to deal with the adhesion.

Objective To study on a new generation of histone deacetylase inhibitor LBH589 on multiple myeloma (MM) resistant cells associated with changes in gene expression,and the mechanism of LBH589 reversal of MM cells' drug resistance.Methods By Western blot analysis,LBH589 (0,20,50 nmol/L) and 50 nmol/L LBH589 combined respectively with dexamethasone of 5 μmol/L at 24 h,expression of histone H4 acetylation and bcl-X gene on MMIR cells were detected.By real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR analysis,LBH589 (0,20,50 nmol/L) and 50 nmol/L LBH589 combined respectively with dexamethasone of 5 μmol/L at 24 h and 48 h,expression of TOSO on MM1R cells were detected.Results Western blot analysis showed that single LBH589 and combined with dexamethasone showed at 24 h the up-regulation on expression of the histone H4 acetylation[(0.205±0.008) %,(0.346±0.009) %,(0.580±0.053) %,(0.986±0.012) %,F =992.957,P =0.032],while down-regulation on expression of the bcl-X in MM1R cells in a dose-dependent manner[(1.210±0.160) %,(0.930±0.036) %,(0.730±0.017) %,(0.488±0.029) %,F =56.432,P =0.028].However,the group of single LBH589 was less effective than the combined group (all P < 0.05).Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR analysis showed single LBH589 and that combined with dexamethasone showed at 24 h and 48 h,the down-regulation on expression of the TOSO in MM1R cells in a dose-dependent manner,24 h specific numerical were (1.00±0.00) %,(0.55±0.01) %,(0.47±0.01) %,(0.38±0.01) % (F =1006.344,P =0.041),48 h specific numerical were (1.00±0.00) %,(0.39±0.04) %,(0.05±0.01) %,(0.03±0.00) % (F =2383.977,P =0.045),however,the group of single LBH589 was less effective than the combined group (all P < 0.05).Conclusion Histone deacetylase inhibitor LBH589 can recover dexamethasone sensitivity of MM1R through effect the gene expression of bcl-X and TOSO,promot histone acetylation,and inducing cell apoptosis to treat tumor.

Objective To investigate the expression of DNA methylation related protein enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) in multiple myeloma (MM) cell line U266 and enriched MM cells (MM-BMMNC) from 10 patients,and analyze the potential role of DNA methylation in the occurrence and development of MM.Methods Human MM cell line U266 and MM cells from 10 MM patients were studied.Enriched bone marrow mononuclear cells (N-BMMNC) from 10 healthy persons were used as the control.The expression of EZH2 were determined by Western blot using the ratio of target protein EZH2 and the internal reference β-actin expression as the final results.Results The preliminary in vitro results showed that EZH2 expression was higher in MM cell line U266 and patient MM-BMMNC (N-BMMNC 0.2277±0.1306,MM-BMMNC 0.9220±0.1301,U266 0.9730±0.1029),with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05).Conclusion EZH2 is enriched in U266 and MM-BMMNC.DNA methylation may have a close correlation with the occurrence and development of MM.

Neuroendocrine tumor liver metastases (NETLM) is a uncommon advanced tumor disease.Patients with unresectable NETLM have a poor outcome.The management of unresectable NETLM is a clinical dilemma.However,Yttrium-90 radioembolization is a safe and effective treatment for NETLM patients.The median disease control rate is 87.1% (64.7% ~ 100%);the median overall survival time is 34.4 months;and the median overall survival rate of 1,2,and 3 years are 79.8% (63%~100%),62% (57% ~62.5%),45.5% (45% ~ 46%),respectively.Although there is good result of Yttrium-90 radioembolization in treatment of unresectable NETLM,the safety and effectiveness should be further verified.
