1.Discussion on clinical practice teaching of patient-oriented critical care medicine
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2017;16(9):925-927
Considering the fact that the critical medical education was relatively backward, and the basic medical education was out of touch with clinical practice, this study, combined with the complexity, uncertainty and comprehensiveness of critical care medicine , puts forward the concept of critical care medicine holistic medicine in clinical practice. We try a patient-oriented approach in clinical practice, focusing on the whole, focusing on the interaction relationship among patient and disease and its pathologi-cal and physiology processes, development, complication and prognosis of disease, instead of paying atten-tion only to disease or single organ itself. The purpose of patient-based learning is trying to train medical students and junior residents to form good clinical thinking ability and decision-making ability.

ObjectiveTo investigate DNA loads and risk factors of BK virus infection in renal transplant recipients.MethodsWe developed a real-time PCR assay to quantitate BK virus loads in 80 patients receiving renal transplantation in our center,and correlation between the BK virus load and clinical course was analyzed.BK virus loads were measured in urine and plasma. Epidemiological features and risk factors of BK virus infection were analyzed.ResultsThe positive rate of BKV viruria and viremia in 80 renal recipients was 37.5% (30/80) and 8.75% (7/80),respectively.BKV loads were higher in renal allograft recipients whose age was more than 50 years old.BKV loads were observed in urine and plasma (compared with group whose age was less than 50 years,P=0.017 and 0.05,respectively).BKV DNA copies were higher in group Tac than that in group CSA (P<0.05),and the peak of BKV load in serum appeared at14th and10th month after transplantation,respectively,but the peak in urine was ahead of that in serum,appeared at 2nd and 8th month,respectively.ConclusionSerial measurement of BKV viral loads by quantitative PCR is a useful tool in monitoring the course of BK virus infection.The ages of recipients (>50 years) and using Tac + MPA can reactivate BK virus and then result in BKVAN in renal transplant recipients. Intensive BKV monitoring is necessary for these recipients.

Objective To investigate the signal transducer and activator of transcription 1(STAT1) and matrix metalloproteinase 3(MMP3)′s genetic expressions and their clinical significance on urothelial carcinoma after renal transplantation. Methods Fifty-one patients with urothelial carcinoma were recruited in this study. Sixteen of them who had renal transplant were in the experimental group and 35 of them without renal transplant were in the control group. All the cases had been proved postoperatively having transitional cell carcinoma by histopathological study. The human genome oligo arrays were used to analyze the gene expression spectrum of urothelial carcinoma after transplantation, aiming the STAT1 and MMP3's expression. Real time RT-PCR and immunohistochemical staining were used to compare the differences in the 2 groups. Results The experimental group showed that there were 35 genes up-regulated compared with the control group. Of them, 23had known gene function or partly known, and 12 had unknown gene function. There were 76 genes down-regulated. Of them, 46 had known gene function or partly known, and 30 had unknown gene function. After pathway analysis of the differentially expressed genes, there were 23 groups of pathways which had significant differences (P<0.05), referring to the aspects of immunosuppressive and tumor growth. The levels of STAT1 and MMP3 expressions had significant differences between the 2groups(P<0.05)as well. Conclusions The differential expression of urothelial tumor genes is obvious between patient who has had renal transplant and who has not. There are many aspects that are related to the tumor's growth like signaling pathways regulating proliferation, apoptosis of tumor cells, tumor angiogenesis and the tumor metastasis potential. STAT1 and MMP3 maybe become the targets of chemoprevention for post-transplantation urothelial carcinoma.

Objective To explore the creation and control of measurement technique error on digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Methods The data was obtained from Advantx LCV Plus DSA system made by GE Corporation. We divided the screen into three areas, per area account for 1/3, ie, central area, middle area and outlying area. The enlargement rate or reduction rate of the target object was respectively calculated according to the different calibration, different height of the bed and different X-ray source to image distance (SID). Results The target object was enlarged gradually from the central area to the outlying area, and the lengthwise enlargement rate was more obvious than transverse. The different of target object measured by coin (diameter was 20.4 mm) with steel ball (diameter was 7.7 mm) was not significance, but the target object was underestimated significantly used the calibration by 4F catheter. When the target object was measured by the calibration in same area and same axis, the error of measurement technique was controlled rang from 1.0% to-2.5%. Conclusion This systematic investigation suggest that the screen was divided into the central area, middle area and outlying area will be beneficial to control DSA measurement error for the interventional physician. The target object was close to real size when it measured by transverse of the calibration, and the error was better controlled when the calibration was in the same area and same axis as the target object.
