Objective To explore the application and significance of multiple clinical pathway training oriented teaching model in clinical teaching of laboratory diagnostic. Methods Totally 50 medical students enrolled in the Second Military Medical University from September to December in 2015 were divided into experimental group and control group. The course consists of theoretical teaching and experi-mental operation. The pathway group (n=25) were introduced into multiple clinical pathway training oriented teaching method. The theoretical teaching was carried out bysimulation examination application, simulation interpretation and simulation diagnosis and treatment, while the experimental course was carried out by using video teaching combined with actual operation. The control group was taught by traditional teaching method using slide teaching and operation display. The theoretical test including case study and operational skill tests were performed among students in both groups after 10 class hours training . The satisfaction questionnaires were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and satisfaction of teaching guided by clinical pathway. Differences were compared with independent sample t testing using GraphPad Prism 5.0 statistical software. Results The medical records about professional theoretical test including case study and opera-tional skill test in the pathway group were superior to those in the control group with significant statistical difference (both P<0.05). The records of medical students were (81.84±7.21), (42.00±2.79) in the pathway group and (76.24 ±6.98), (37.00 ±3.71) in the control group. The questionnaire result showed that the pathway group's satisfaction was high, especially with the theoretical knowledge andsceneteaching (higher than 80%). The pathway group believed that multiple clinical pathway training helped to improve learning interest and clinical thinking ability . Conclusions Multiple clinical pathway training oriented teaching model is helpful for the medical students to achieve the basic idea of clinical pathway, improve the profes-sional ability, enhance the interest of learning and the quality of teaching, standardize teaching and promote teaching and learning.

Objective To establish human lung adenocarcinoma multidrug resistance cell lines in vitro,observe their biological characteristics,and investigate the mRNA expressions of DNA pol?,mdr 1,mrp1,GST-?,lrp and topo Ⅱ genes.Methods Paclitaxel-resistant cell lines(A549/TXL20) were established in vitro by exposure to stepwise increased concentrations of the drug in a cell culture medium.Biological morphology and cell cycles were analyzed by morphometry and flow cytometry.The chemoresistance indexes of cells were measured by methyl tetrazolium assay.Evaluation of growth and in vitro drug sensitivity were performed.RT-PCR was employed to analyze the mRNA expressions of the DNA pol?,mdr 1,mrp1,GST-?,lrp,and topo Ⅱ genes.Results ① Compared with parent cells,the resistant sublines had a lower confluent density.They were smaller and mixed with giant cells in different sizes and with different numbers of nucleoli,and the growth property of A549/TXL20 did not change significantly compared with A549 cell lines.② The resistant cells,A549/TXL20,were 19.3 times more resistant to paclitaxel and 67.4 times more resistant to cisplatin than the parent cells,and also demonstrated cross-resistance to mitomycin,vinblastine,and 5-fluouracil(5-FU). ③ Compared with the A549 celllines,an unreasonably higher level of drug resistance and lower drug concentration was detected in A549/TXL20 cells after exposure to the drug in the culture medium.④ The mRNA expression level of DNA pol?,mdr1,GST-?,mrp1 andlrp genes in A549/TXL20 cells was significantly higher than that in A549 cell lines(P

Objective To investigate the expression of Dysadherin and analyze its role in renal clear cell carcinoma (RCCC).Methods RT-PCR and immunohistochemical were used to detect the expression of Dysadherin in 60 cases of fresh RCCC and 60 adjacent normal renal tissues(male 35,female 25; age 37-78,median age 61; >7 cm 24,≤7 cm 36; Ⅰ/Ⅱ 39,Ⅲ/Ⅳ 21).Results Dysadherin mRNA expression in RCCC tissues (2.0043±0.2890) was higher than that in adjacent normal renal tissues (0.8461 ±0.2479) (t =6.8020,P < 0.05).Dysadherin expression was associated with nuclear grade.The expression of Dysadherin in nucleus grade Ⅲ and Ⅳ tumors were significantly higher than that in nucleus grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ tumors [the mRNA expression were 4.6224±0.3194,2.7780±0.2288,the positive rates of protein were 64.1% (25/39),95.2 % (20/21) (t =6.5750,x2 =5.495,P < 0.05)].There was no association between the expression of Dysadherin with sex (t =1.0530,x2 =0.023),age(t =0.0511,x2 =0.089) and tumor size (t =1.0330,x2 =0.370) (P > 0.05).Conclusion In RCCC,Dysadherin expression is positively associated with tumor aggressiveness based on grading.It seems that Dysadherin may be a valuable prognostic marker in RCCC.

The lentiviral vector was used for construction of a recombinant mediating RNA interference (RNAi) against Beclin1 gene in this study. Recombinant vector plasmid was transfected into non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells by liposome. PCR results showed that three amplified positive fragments were inserted into pRNAT-U6. 2/Lenti vectors. DNA sequencing results showed that the three recombinant lentivirus plasmids, pRNAT-U6. 2/Lenti-si356, pRNAT-U6. 2/Lenti-si423 and pRNAT-U6. 2/ Lenti-si684 were constructed successfully. After transfection with liposome, RT-PCR and Western blot analysis confirmed that the expression of Beclin1 mRNA and protein was inhibited in the three recombinant lentivirus plasmids transfected groups, and gene silencing efficacy was 35.56%, 89.22% and 66.78%, respectively. The results demonstrated that the lentiviral vectors of RNAi targeting Beclin1 gene were successfully constructed, and NSCLC A549 stable cell line with Beclin1 gene knockdown was established. This study finally provided a new cell model to explore the biological behavior of the Beclin1 gene in NSCLC A549 cells.

Objective:To explore the value of machine learning models based on multiple structural MRI features for diagnosis of Parkinson disease (PD).Methods:The clinical and imaging data of 60 PD patients (PD group) diagnosed in the Neurology Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from November 2017 to August 2019 and 56 normal elderly people (NC group) recruited from the community were retrospectively analyzed. All subjects underwent brain MR imaging. Multiple structural MRI features were extracted from cerebellum, deep nuclei and of brain cortex based on different partition templates. The Mann-Whitney U test, as well as least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression were used to select the most discriminating features. Finally, logistic regression (LR) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) classifier combined with the 5-fold cross-validation scheme were used to construct the models based on structural features of cerebellum, deep nuclei and cortex, and a combined model based on all features. The receiver operating characteristic curves were drawn, and the diagnostic performance and clinical net benefit of each model were evaluated by the area under curve (AUC) and the decision curve analysis (DCA). Results:In total, four cerebellum (asymmetry index of Lobule Ⅵ volume, asymmetry index of Lobule ⅦB cortical thickness, asymmetry index of total gray matter volume and absolute value of right Lobule Ⅵ gray matter volume), 3 deep nuclei (absolute value of right nucleus accumbens volume, absolute and relative value of total nucleus accumbens volume) and 3 cortex features (local gyration index of left PFm, local fractal dimension of right superior frontal gyrus and sulcal depth of left superior occipital gyrus) were selected as the most discriminating features, and the related models were constructed. In validation set, the AUC of cerebellum, deep nuclei, cortex and combined models for diagnosis of PD based on LR classifier were 0.692, 0.641, 0.747 and 0.816; the AUC of cerebellum, deep nuclei, cortex and combined models for diagnosis of PD based on LDA classifier were 0.726, 0.610, 0.752 and 0.818. The diagnostic efficiency of the combined models based on LR and LDA classifiers were significantly better than those of other models ( P<0.05). The DCA curve demonstrated that the combined models based on LR and LDA classifiers showed the highest clinical net benefit. Conclusion:The combined models with all structural features of cerebellum, deep nuclei and cortex included based on LR and LDA classifiers showed favorable performance and clinical net benefit for diagnosis of PD, which have the potential application value in clinical diagnosis.
