Doctor-patient trust plays an important role in doctor-patient knowledge transfer.Investigating the basic features and trust performance of the patients, the authors classified by means of a cluster analysis, the patients into four groups with such criteria as the trust on hospital, trust on doctors, patient's awareness of the knowledge, and patient's compliance to the doctor's advice. The four groups are rational and suspicious, passive compliance, high self-confidence, and blind trust groups. In view of behavioral characteristics of the patients, different doctor-patient knowledge transfer strategies are suggested, in an effort to perform effective doctor-patient communication and to gain patient's trust.

Objective To study the effect of He-Ne laser at lower power on proliferation and differentiation of embryo midbrain nerve cell.Methods The embryo midbrain nerve cell of rat embryo were randomly divided into one control group and three experimental groups.The cells in experimental groups were respectively irradiated at different time:3 min(A组),6 min(B组),10min(C组),each day.After ten days,we counted the concentration rate and determined the content of protein and the amount of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and malonyldialolehyde(MDA).Results The concentration rate of group A and of group B significantly increased than that of the control group(P

Objective To study the angle and articular facet curvature of lumbar zygapophyseal joints in adults.Methods The lumbar zygapophyseal joints in 120 healthy subjects without lumbar diseases were detected using spiral CT and mutiple planner re-construction.The angle and articular facet curvature of zygapophyseal joints were measured.The differences in the measured param-eters between male and female or different age groups were compared.Results ①There were no significant differences in the angle of the same lumbar zygapophyseal joints between males and females or different age groups (P >0.05);however,the significant differences in the angle between different lumbar segments were found (P <0.05).②There were no significant differences in articu-lar facet curvature of the same lumbar zygapophyseal joints between males and females or different age groups (P >0.05);however, there were significant differences in the curvature between different lumbar segments (P <0.05).The maximum articular facet cur-vature of L3-L4 was 22.1°±6.0°.Conclusion The angle and articular facet curvature of lumbar zygapophyseal joints varies from different lumbar segments with different contributions for the lumbar stability.

BACKGROUND:Autologous micro-skin graft covered with alogeneic skin has become a major means for repair of extremely severe burn wounds. Due to the limitation of the source of alogeneic skin, heterogeneous skin (pigskin) or artificial skin serves as a vector to cover the wound on the clinical use. OBJECTIVE: To observe the curative effect of thin-thickness micro-skin pulping covered with heterogeneous skin for repair of burn wounds in comparison with blade-thickness micro-skin pulping covered with heterogeneous skin. METHODS:A self-control study was performed in 36 patients with severe burns of bilateral limbs. There were 42 pairs of wounds, 32 of which were at joint sites. One or two pairs of III-degree burns treated with escharectomy were selected from each patient for self-control comparison. Covered with heterogeneous skin, thin-thickness micro-skin pulping and blade-thickness micro-skin pulping were used in the trial and control groups, respectively. The expansion ratio was controled at 1:8-1:12 in al patients. Wound healing time, degree of scar hyperplasia within 6 months to 2 years after transplantation, and ratio of reconstruction surgery at joint sites were observed and compared. The removed scars by surgery were analyzed based on the total score of the Vancouver Scar Scale. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The average wound healing time was (44.7±1.24) days in the trial group and (49.6±1.41) days in the control group, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05). The trial group exhibited less scar hyperplasia than the control group at 6 months to 2 years after transplantation. Compared with the control group, the ratio of severe scar hyperplasia was significantly less in the trial group (P < 0.05), while the ratio of mild scar hyperplasia was obviously greater in the trial group (P < 0.01). However, there was no difference in the ratio of moderate scar hyperplasia between the two groups (P > 0.05). The reconstructive surgery ratio of the trial group was 38%, significantly lower than that of the control group (59.38%;P < 0.01). The total score on the Vancouver Scar Scale was less in the trial group than the control group (P < 0.05). These findings suggest that the thin-thickness micro-skin covered with heterogeneous skin is likely to be a better treatment to repair large ful-thickness skin burn by increasing the thickness of micro-skin, and it can obtain better wound healing quality.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of two children with Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS). METHODS: Two children who had presented at the Department of Pediatrics, General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University respectively on January 26 and March 18, 2021 were selected as the study subjects. Clinical data and results of genetic testing of the two patients were analyzed. RESULTS: Both children had featured developmental delay, characteristic facies and cardiovascular malformation. Child 1 also had subclinical hypothyroidism, whilst child 2 had occurrence of epilepsy. Genetic testing revealed that child 1 has harbored a 1.54 Mb deletion in the 7q11.23 region, whilst child 2 has a 1.53 Mb deletion in the same region, in addition with a c.158G>A variant of the ATP1A1 gene and a c.12181A>G variant of the KMT2C gene. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, the c.158G>A and c.12181A>G variants were rated as variants of unknown significance (PM1+PM2_Supporting+PP2+PP3；PM2_Supporting). CONCLUSION Both children had characteristic features of WBS, for which deletions of the 7q11.23 region may be accountable. For children manifesting developmental delay, facial dysmorphism and cardiovascular malformations, the diagnosis of WBS should be suspected, and genetic testing should be recommended to confirm the diagnosis.

Objective:To study the clinical features of children with Prader-Willi syndrome(PWS).Methods:Eighteen cases of PWS were collected from July 2016 to November 2018 in Shenzhen Maternal and Child Healthcare Hospital, Southern Medical University.The clinical data of children with PWS were analyzed retrospectively.Results:There were 12 males and 6 females in 18 cases with PWS.The diagnosis age ranged from 25 days to 9.5 years old [(3.09±3.02) years old]. Among them, 11 cases were in infancy (≤3 years old) and 7 cases after infancy (>3 years old). The main clinical features of infants with PWS were 11 cases of gonadal dysplasia (100.0%), 11 cases of psychomotor retardation (100.0%), 10 cases of hypotonia (90.1%), 6 cases of feeding difficulty and weak cry (54.5%). After infancy the main clinical features included 7 cases of psychomotor retardation (100.0%), 5 cases of hyperphagia(71.4%), 5 cases of obesity (71.4%), 5 cases of abnormal behavior problems (71.4%) and 4 cases of visual problems (57.1%). The clinical features of all patients throughout the developmental stage were as follows: decreased fetal movement, hypoplasia, neonatal hypotonia, weak cry, feeding difficulty, psychomotor delay, hyperphagia, obesity, abnormal behavior problems, and so on.Conclusions:The clinical features of PWS vary with age.The main clinical features in the infancy are hypotonia, weak cry, difficulty feeding and gonadal dysplasia.After infancy, there are hyperphagia, obesity, behavior and visual problems.And psychomotor retardation is present in the whole developmental stage of children with PWS.Early diagnosis and treatment are important for improving the prognosis of PWS.

In a one-step fermentation system of vitamin C production with Gluconobacter oxydans and Ketogulonicigenium vulgare, a functional module of α-lipoic acid biosynthesis was constructed in G. oxydans. The engineered G. oxydans was co-cultured with K. vulgare to enhance the growth and 2-keto-L-gulonic acid (2-KGA) production of K. vulgare. This one-step fermentation system alleviated the growth inhibition during the mono-culture of K. vulgare and strengthened the interaction between the two bacteria. Moreover, the yield of vitamin C precursor (2-KGA) increased to 73.34 g/L (the control group was 59.09 g/L), and the conversion of D-sorbitol to 2-KGA increased to 86.0%. This study provides a new idea for further optimizing the one-step fermentation system of vitamin C production.
