Objective To investigate the adiponectin(ADIPOQ)gene polymorphisms and which association with colorectal cancer(CRC).Methods Genotyping of blood samples were performed for 250 case-control pairs.Taqman real-time PCR was used to test the three single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs),namely rs266729,rs2441 766,rs1 501299.Logistic regression was applied to assess the effects of three SNPs,the gene-gene,and gene-environment interactions on CRC risk.Results The ADIPOQ rs266729 GG and CG+GG genotype had a higher CRC risk than those carrying the CC genotype[OR (95%CI ):1.87 (1.01 - 3.47),1.63 (1.14-2.32),respectively].The same results was observed in cases who carried TG+GG genotype vs .TT genotype in rs2441 766 [OR(95%CI ):1.45(1.02-2.06)].The rs1 501299 GT+TT genotype had a lower CRC risk than those carrying the GG genotype [OR(95%CI ):0.61(0.43-0.88)].Furthermore,in two-factor gene-environment interaction analyses,rs266729 presented signifi-cant interactions with Body mass index (BMI),with OR of 1.1 6 (95%CI :1.03-1.30).Conclusion The results suggest that vari-ants in ADIPOQ may contribute to increased colorectal cancer risk and this contribution may be modified by BMI.

Objective: To understand the current status of health education faculty in Yuzhong District of Chongqing, so as to explore the implementation path to improve the construction of health education faculty. Methods: In August 2023, stratified random sampling was used to directly select a total of 555 teachers and school doctors from 17 schools in 11 streets of Yuzhong District, who were invited to conduct a questionnaire survey. A total of 409 fulltime or parttime health education teachers were included in the analysis of the results. Both χ2 test and Fisher exact probability method were analyzed for compare the differences in the frequency of conducting health education courses and specializing in specializing areas among different plant health education teachers in Yuzhong District. Results: Health education course faculty were mainly female teachers, accounting for 81.66%. The proportions of physical education (PE) teachers, school doctors, head teachers and teachers from other disciplines were 14.67%, 8.31%, 62.84%, 14.18%, and the class teachers (81.33%) and school doctor (80.95%) were found of the highest proportion of providing health education courses, and the teaching section was mainly elementary school (first to third grade: 42.30%, fourth to sixth grade: 44.74%). Among the teachers, school doctors had the highest proportion (88.24%) of receiving training related to health education courses. And there was a significant stastical difference in the frequency of conducting health education classes among PE teachers, school doctor, head teachers and the teachers of other courses (χ2=54.46, P<0.01). The results of Fisher exact probability method showed that the differences in selfassessment of the most and least skilled areas among PE teachers, school doctor, head teachers and teachers of other courses were statistically significant (P<0.01). Conclusions Health education faculty in Yuzhong District is mainly composed of PE teachers, school doctor, head teachers and teachers of other courses. The standardized training and assessment of teaching for school doctor could promote the school nurse group developing into specialized health education faculty.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of comprehensive psychotherapy on psychology of cancer patients received chemotherapy or radiotherapy. METHODS:77 cancer patients received chemotherapy or radiotherapy were divided into two groups. Both groups received routine chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Intervention group(n=40)were additionally given comprehensive psychotherapy,i.e. cognitive therapy,psychological persuasion and relaxation training. Self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)and self-rating depression scale(SDS)were applied to evaluate all patients one week before intervention and one month after comprehensive psychotherapy. RESULTS:SAS and SDS scores of intervention group were significantly lower than that of control group after treatment(P0.05). CONCLUSION:Comprehensive psychotherapy can improve the mental state of patients with can-cer.

Objective To explore the expression of zinc finger protein 217 (ZNF217) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and its correlation with prognosis of patients. Methods A total of 120 NSCLC patients in Chongqing Three Gorges Central Hospital from January 2012 to October 2013 were selected. Immunohistochemical method was used to test the expression of ZNF217 in NSCLC tissues and paracancerous tissues. The correlation of ZNF217 expression with patient's clinicopathological features was analyzed. At the same time, the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression model multiple factor analysis method were used to explore the factors affecting the prognosis of patients after NSCLC radical operations. Results ZNF217 mainly existed in cell nucleus of NSCLC. The positive expression rate of ZNF217 in the cancer tissues was higher than that in the paracancerous tissues [52.5％ (63/120) vs. 20.1％ (25/120), χ 2 = 25.909, P < 0.05]. The positive expression rate of ZNF217 increased with the increase of tumor T stage (χ 2 = 7.333, P = 0.026), N stage (χ 2 = 7.782, P = 0.020) and TNM stage (χ 2 = 11.557, P = 0.003). The overall survival (P = 0.007) and progression-free survival (P = 0.004) of patients with positive ZNF217 were poorer than those of patients with negative ZNF217. Cox multiple factor analysis showed that ZNF217 was an independent risk factor affecting the prognosis of NSCLC. Conclusion ZNF217 is an independent risk factor affecting the prognosis of NSCLC, and it may be a potential target for accurate treatment of NSCLC.

Objective:To study the methods of hormone-related teaching in standardized residency training of endocrinology.Methods:From February 2022 to June 2022, 25 residents in the Department of Endocrinology, Peking University Third Hospital were given a standardized residency training. The teaching mode combined with a hundred years of insulin development was adopted to practice insulin teaching, and questionnaires were evaluated before and after the teaching. Chi-square test was performed by SPSS 20.0.Results:A total of 31 physicians participated in the training, and 25 residents who were included in the first-stage standardized training were analyzed. Before the training, only 3 people (12%) knew the development history of insulin, and 10 people (40%) answered all the questions about clinical use of insulin correctly. After the training, 23 residents (92%) said they knew or were familiar with the history of insulin development, and 20 residents (80%) answered the questions about the clinical use of insulin correctly, all of which were higher than those before the training, and the difference was statistically significant.Conclusion:The integration of medical history in standardized residency training in endocrinology department can effectively improve the teaching effect, and enhance the humanity quality of young doctors, which can become an effective vehicle in standardized residency training.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the effectiveness of small interfering RNA (siRNA) on inhibiting severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-associated coronavirus replication, and to lay bases for the future clinical application of siRNA for the treatment of viral infectious diseases.

METHODSVero-E6 cells was transfected with siRNA before SARS virus infection, and the effectiveness of siRNA interference was evaluated by observing the cytopathic effect (CPE) on Vero-E6 cells.

RESULTSFive pairs of siRNA showed ability to reduce CPE dose dependently, and two of them had the best effect.

CONCLUSIONsiRNA may be effective in inhibiting SARS-associated coronavirus replication.
