Objective To investigated the association of serum level of growth arrest-specific protein 6 (Gas6) with the disease activity in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. Methods The expression levels of Gas6 were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay in 102 SLE patients and 67 healthy persons; and statistical methods were used to analyze the expressions of Gas6 in the patients with different clinical symptoms. Results The expression of Gas6 was significantly higher in the SLE group [54.59 (2.41 ~ 614.93) ng/mL] than in the healthy control group [19.22 (15.06 ~ 384.93) ng/mL, P < 0.05]. And serum Gas6 levels were significantly higher in the patients with dsDNA (+) , renal disorder , rash and vasculitis than the patients without symptoms (P < 0.05). The expression of Gas6 was correlated with SLEDAI significantly (r = 0.569, P < 0.01). Conclusions Gas6 plays an important role in the pathogenesis of SLE and it is an effective biomarker for the disease activity in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.

This study summarizes the construction background, rules and regulations and institutional settings of the MOOC and Micro-course Club in the Second Hospital of Jilin University, discusses the means of teacher training for clinical teachers, and shows the application effect of the club. At the same time, the related problems encountered in the process of club construction are summarized and reflected. The construction of MOOC and micro-course clubs is conducive to improving the information-based teaching level of clinical teachers, and also provides new inspiration and ideas for the construction of medical clubs.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in the treatment of obesity with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).Methods:The clinical data of 115 obese patients with NAFLD who underwent LSG surgery at Beijing Tiantan Hospital were analyzed.Results:LSG was successful in a 115 patients, and the body weight and BMI decreased gradually, and were significantly lower than the preoperative level (all P<0.001). EWL% increased and was 73.1%±30.1% at 12 months after operation. The postoperative triglyceride level decreased and was significantly lower than the preoperative level (all P<0.05). Most patients were complicated with abnormal liver function before surgery, and ALT, AST and GGT levels decreased to the normal range 3 months after surgery (all P<0.05). Albumin level was significantly higher 3 months after operation than before operation ( P<0.001). At 12 months postoperatively, the severity grade of fatty liver on ultrasound was significantly lower than that before surgery ( P<0.001). Conclusion:Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy can significantly improve lipid metabolism index, liver function index and fatty liver index in NAFLD patients along with weight loss .
