Objective To explore the relationship between perfectionism and procrastination among medical students.Methods 327 medical students of two medical universities in Guangzhou were investigated by the chinese Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale and the Aitken Procrastination Inventory.Results Compared with ordinary college students, medical students got higher scores on CM (12.87 ± 5.017 vs 11.5 ± 4.9), PE ( 14.89 ± 4.603 vs 13.6 ± 5.1 ) and Negative Perfectionism (58.08 ± 12.716 vs 56.1 ± 12.4), but got lower scores on PS (18.00±4.679 vs 18.7 ±5.2).There is the significant negative correlation between OR and procrastination (P< 0.001 ).CM, DA, Negative Perfectionism score and procrastination have notable positive correlation (P<0.01 ).The results of regression analysis show that OR and DA can predict procrastination (P<0.01).Conclusions Compared with ordinary college students, the perfectionism among contemporary medical students is higher and high negative perfectionist behaves with more procrastination.

Objective To analyze the influence of validating the parental origin to the interpretation of clinical pathogenicity of total 54 copy number variations(CNV)with different clinical significance in 46 patients undergo chromosomal microarray analysis(CMA).Methods A retrospective study.This study enrolled 46 patients conducted in Department of Pediatric Endocrinology and Genetics of Shanghai Xinhua Hospital during the period of August 2014 to December 2015,involving 54 different CNVs detected by CMA.The parental origin of CNVs was examined by CMA or quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.Results Totally 54 different CNVs were found in 46 patients by CMA.Seventeen out of the 54 CNVs were pathogenic variations.After validating the parental origin,14 CNVs were proved de novo mutation,while 3 CNVs have maternal origin including 1q21.1 deletion syndrome,Xq27.3q28 and Xq22.1q22.3 duplications which inherited from maternal X chromosome.CNVs of 1q21.1 deletion syndrome often inherited from parents,and no phenotype appears on mother which may be due to the deactivation mechanism of duplications on mother′s X chromosome.Therefore,these 17 pathogenic variations were still considered to be clinical pathogenic significance after validating the parental origin.Ten out of 54 CNVs were variants of uncertain significance-likely pathogenic.After parental original validation,3 CNVs were proved de novo mutation considering likely pathogenic significance,while 7 CNVs have parental origin still judged to be unknown clinical pathogenicity.Twenty-seven out of 54 CNVs were variants of uncertain significance.After validating the parental origin,only 1 CNV was proved de novo mutation considering likely pathogenic significance,while all the others had parental origin considered to be variations likely benign.Conclusion CNVs reported as likely pathogenic should be validated the parental origin in order to further study their clinical pathogenicity,while variants of uncertain significance can preliminary clear its nature by validating parental origin.

Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors can increase the sensitivity of tumor cells to Poly ADP-ribose polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibitors. Therefore, the simultaneous inhibition of the PARP-1 and PI3K activities are expected to overcome the drug resistance of PARP-1 inhibitors.In our previous work, two compounds XW-1 and WZ-1 with excellent activities against PARP-1 and PI3K were obtained with the limitation to further study due to their poor water solubility.Therefore, XW-1 and WZ-1 were chosen as lead compounds to optimize their solubility by introducing a salt-forming site via a urea group, and 11 novel compounds were designed and synthesized. The structure of all target compounds was confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS.The enzyme activities of the compounds against PARP-1 and PI3K were measured, and the results showed that most of the compounds demonstrated good inhibitory activities against PARP-1 and PI3K.Based on the above result, the inhibitory activities of compounds 8b, 8e, and 8f against MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468, HCC1937, HCT116, and olaparib-resistant HCT116R were determined by MTT, respectively.Additionally, the structure-activity relationship was discussed. The results showed that these compounds displayed excellent antiproliferation activity.Among them, compound 8f demonstrated antiproliferation remarkably against all five tumor cells, which was more potent than that of olaparib, and was comparable to that of BKM120.Furthermore, the solubility of hydrochloride salts of compound 8b and 8f was significantly improved compared to the lead compounds.The results of this study will provide a theoretical basis for the further development of PARP-1 and PI3K dual-target inhibitors with good pharmaceutical properties and strong inhibitory activities.

Objective:To investigate the status quo of psychological contracts and influencing factors among members of the "1+N" family doctor teams in Shenzhen and to explore the impact of psychological contracts on job burnout.Methods:This cross-sectional study was conducted from September 30 to October 31, 2022 among 361 members of 92 family doctor teams from 92 community health service centers which provided family doctor team service in Shenzhen city. A self-designed general information questionnaire, an employee psychological contract questionnaire (including organizational responsibility and personal responsibility dimensions), and a job burnout scale (including emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment dimensions) were used in the study. T-tests, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of psychological contracts and job burnout.Results:Among 361 respondents, there were 299 females (82.8%) and 62 males (17.2%), and a higher proportion of general practitioners (37.5%, 129/361) and nurses (41.8%, 151/361). The total score of psychological contracts among the 361 respondents was (141.6±19.5), with organizational responsibility scoring (70.6±11.2) and personal responsibility scoring (71.0±9.3). On the job burnout scale, emotional exhaustion scored (17.89±6.82), depersonalization scored (6.51±2.54), and personal accomplishment scored (30.95±5.70). General practitioners scored lower in organizational responsibility and personal responsibility compared to other members ( F=7.341,3.119, all P<0.05), and higher in emotional exhaustion and depersonalization ( F=7.637, 2.415, all P<0.05). Members with≤5 years of work experience scored lower in personal responsibility and personal accomplishment ( F=3.656, 4.205, all P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that scores of organizational responsibility and personal responsibility were negatively correlated with levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization ( r=-0.618, -0.526, all P<0.01), ( r=-0.404, -0.393, all P<0.01), and positively correlated with personal accomplishment ( r=0.500, 0.558, all P<0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that organizational responsibility negatively affected emotional exhaustion and depersonalization ( β=-0.554, -0.274, all P<0.01), and positively affected personal accomplishment ( β=0.172, P<0.05). Personal responsibility positively affected personal accomplishment ( β=0.404, P<0.01). Conclusions:The study demonstrates that general practitioners in family doctor teams in Shenzhen city have lower psychological contract levels and are more prone to emotional exhaustion and depersonalization; members with≤5 years of work experience have lower personal responsibility and accomplishment. The results indicate that enhancing organizational responsibility can reduce job burnout of members in family doctor teams.
