1.Reflection on practice of progressive assessment on comprehensive quality of undergraduates
Chinese Journal of Medical Education Research 2013;(1):60-62
Progressive assessment is one of the methods adopted by colleges and universities to evaluate the comprehensive quality of undergraduates.It can provide objective references for various awards and selections.Most colleges used static and transverse methods; based on these methods,advantages and disadvantages of individual undergraduates were compared with general groups,but feedback and forecast functions of assessment can not be realized.Therefore it is necessary to transform our conceptions and practice progressive assessment on comprehensive quality of undergraduates.We can learn from the relevant conceptions and methods in enterprise management and use data envelopment analysis to exclude the influence of different basic conditions of undergraduates.These undertakings are of great importance to truly reflect undergraduates' effective progress degree,guide them to test and evaluate themselves correctly and to advance comprehensive quality continuously.

Objective To investigate the distribution and the antibiotic resistance genes carried by classⅠintegron and insertion sequence common region(ISCR1)among clinical isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii. Methods Fifty-one clinical isolates of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii were collected. Polymerase chain reaction method was used to detect the classⅠintegrase gene, variable region of classⅠintegron, ISCR1 and genes related to antibiotics resistance lo-cated downstream of ISCR1 in 51 multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. Antibiotics resistance genes carried by classⅠintegron and ISCR1 were performed by DNA sequencing. The relationship between classⅠintegron and ISCR1 was detected by PCR-mapping. Results Among 51 multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates, 45 strains were found con-taining classⅠintegrase genes, 32 strains were found containing variable regions. Sequencing results showed that the gene cassette arrays were aacA4-catB8-aadA1, aacC1-orfA-orf-B-aadA1 and blaPSE-1-aadA2-cmlA1-aadA1. Twenty-two strains were found containing ISCR1 and 5 strains were found containing resistance genes located downstream of ISCR1. DNA sequencing results showed the resistant gene of qnrA1-ampR. The results of PCR-mapping showed that ISCR1 located directly downstream of 3' conserved segment of classⅠintegron in 20 Acinetobacter baumannii strains. Conclusion ClassⅠintegron and ISCR1 play an important role in mechanisms of drug resistance of Acinetobacter baumannii. ClassⅠintegron and ISCR1 could connect in series in Acinetobacter baumannii.

Long non-coding RNA ( LncRNA) is a class of transcript (>200 nucleotides) that do not encode proteins. It plays an important role in epigenetic regulation and gene expression at transcriptional or post transcriptional level. The abnormal expression of LncRNA may lead to various pathological processes. Diabetic retinopathy ( DR ) is a multifactorial disease. Recent studies have shown that many specific expressions of LncRNAs are closely related to the genesis of DR. In this review, we summarized the recent advances in the function of LncRNA, the regulatory mechanisms of LncRNA involved in the development of DR, and the related therapies.

Objective To determine the relationship between Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR)(C677T, A1298C and G1793A)polymorphisms and stillbirth.Methods 33 unexplained stillbirth and 582 normal livebirth were col-lected for case-control study from August 2014 to August 2016.The genotyping of C677T,A1298C and G1793A polymor-phisms of the MTHFR gene was tested by using restriction fragment length polymorphism polymerase chain reaction.The relationship between MTHFR polymorphisms and stillbirth susceltibility was analyzed by logistic regression.Results There was no significant difference in the genetype frequencies of A1298C and G1793A of MTHFR polymorphisms between case and control.But there was significant difference in the genetype frequencies of C677T between case and control (CT:P=0.02,χ2=3.67;TT:P=0.02,χ2=3.65).Heterozygous CT and homozygous TT would be high risk factors of stillbirth. C677T was found in one (14.3%)of the cases with early stillbirth and in three (11.5%)of the cases with late stillbirth, having no significant difference.Twin pregnancy and MTHFR C677T increased the risk 8-fold (P<0.001,χ2=13.28)and 3.4(P=0.02,χ2=3.65)for stillbirth,respectively.Conclusion MTHFR C677T polymorphism is high risk factors associ-ated with the susceptibility of stillbirth.MTHFR C677T may be used as a prognostic marker of pregnancy cases predisposed to preterm delivery.
