Tissue microarray is a special biologic microarray, which was invented on the base of cDNA microarray. The principle of the tissue microarray is arraying the tissue on the solid carrier according demand, then hybridizing, marking and dyeing, for researching the special expression of aimed gene or production among the different tissue. The application of tissue microarray is abroad, especially the determinant of tumor predisposing factor, the screening of the special gene and antibody, the earlier diagnosis, the therapy, and the judgment of prognosis. Compared with the traditional pathological investigation, tissue microarray has the behavior of small volume, high throughput (information), and design by different demand. Tissue microarray has important practical significance and broad market prospect in the investigation of the relation between the gene and disease (tumor), the verification of the associated gene of the disease, the development and screening of new drug, the molecular diagnosis of disease, the dynamic observation during therapy, and the judgment of prognosis.

Objective:To explore the association between the frequency of using smoking cessation application (APP) and the effect of smoking cessation in smoking cessation clinic.Methods:A clinical trial with a non-randomized controlled design was conducted in the smoking cessation clinic of China-Japan Friendship Hospital from July 2019 to June 2021. Participants were given a comprehensive smoking cessation intervention of mobile APP combined with bupropion. The primary outcome measures were carbon monoxide validated sustained abstinence at 9-12 weeks.Results:A total of 187 participants were included in the final analysis. After 12-week intervention, the sustained abstinence at 9-12 weeks was 42.2%. For the frequency of APP use, 20.9% (39/187) of the participants used it≥6 days per week, 62.0% (116/187) used it 2-5 days per week, and 17.1% (32/187) used it≤1 day per week. Multivariate analysis showed that smoking cessation rate was associated with smoking duration, cigarettes smoked per day and frequency of APP use. Participants with higher frequency of APP use had a higher likelihood of quitting smoking ( OR=4.95, 95% CI: 1.32-18.63). Conclusion:The increased frequency of mobile smoking cessation APP use is associated with higher probability of quitting smoking in smoking cessation clinic.

Objective To preliminarly investigate the application value of Pipeline embolization device ( PED ) in the endovascular interventional treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms. Methods From July 2015 to October 2016, the clinical data of 10 consecutive patients with complex intracranial aneurysm treated with PED at the Department of Neurosurgery, Guangdong General Hospital were enrolled retrospectively. Their surgical modalities,complications,and imaging findings were analyzed. Results Of the 10 patients,7 were females and 3 were males,their age was 32-68 years ( mean age 54 ± 12 years) . There were 8 patients with internal carotid artery aneurysm,1 with middle cerebral artery aneurysm,and 1 with vertebrobasilar artery aneurysm;there were 2 patients with ruptured aneurysm and 8 with unruptured aneurysm;there were 5 patients with saccular aneurysm ( 2 with wide-necked aneu-rysm) ,3 with fusiform aneurysm,2 with dissecting aneurysm;there were 2 patients with medium aneurysm ( diameter>5-15 mm) ,2 with large aneurysm ( diameter>15-25 mm) ,6 with giant aneurysm ( diameter>25 mm) ,and there were 2 patients with recurrent aneurysm. They were all single aneurysms. Three patients were treated with PED in combination with coil embolization,and 7 patients were treated with PED implantation alone. Nine patients were treated with one PED and 1 was treated with 3 PEDs. The immediate postoperative angiography revealed that the contrast agents in the aneurysm cavities were obviously stranded. One patient died after procedure and 1 had quadriplegia after procedure,and the remaining 8 patients had no PED-related complications. The modified Rankin scale score was 0 in 8 cases,5 in 1 case,and 6 in 1 case on the first post-operative day. They were followed up for 14 to 28 months. Conclusions The different types of intracranial aneurysms treated with PED implantation is relatively safe and effective,but there are also some risks of dis-ability and death. Strictly selecting the indications and developing the individualized treatment strategies are needed.

Objective:To conduct an MRI observation on the incidences of ligamentous injuries and fracture morphology in Schatzker type Ⅳ tibial plateau fracture (TPF) and investigate their influence on knee stability.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 30 patients with Schatzker type Ⅳ TPF who had undergone surgery at Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Jiangsu Provincial People's Hospital from January 2010 to December 2019 and whose preoperative X-ray, CT and MRI were available. They were 18 males and 12 females, aged from 22 to 75 years (mean, 45.4 years). They were divided into a dislocation-free group and a dislocation group according to the absence or presence of knee dislocation on their anteroposterior X-ray films. The fracture morphology was assessed on CT according to the modified three-column classification. The incidences of ligamentous injuries [involving anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), medial collateral ligament (MCL), posterolateral complex (PLC) and anterolateral ligament (ALL)] were investigated on MRI. The 2 groups were compared in fracture morphology and incidences of ligamentous injuries. Multiple linear regression (MLR) analysis was used to identify the main factor contributing to preoperative knee dislocation.Results:The dislocation group had 12 patients and the dislocation-free group 18. The fracture involving medial+posteromedial+posterolateral columns was found in 66.7% of the patients (20 cases), and accounted for 83.3% (10 cases) in the dislocation group. The incidence was 96.7% (29 cases) for ACL injury, 43.3% (13 cases) for PCL injury, 70.0% (21 cases) for MCL injury, 90% (27 cases) for PLC injury, 73.3% (22 cases) for ALL injury and 90% (27 cases) for the multiple-ligament disruption. There was a significant difference in the posterolateral column injury between the dislocation-free group [55.6% (10/18)] and the dislocation group [91.7% (11/12)] ( P < 0.05), but there were no significant differences between the 2 group in the injury to any other single ligament or multiple ligaments ( P>0.05). The MLR analysis confirmed that the posterolateral column injury was a risk factor for coronary plane dislocation in Schatzker type Ⅳ TPF( P<0.05). Conclusions:In Schatzker type Ⅳ TPF, the incidences of ligamentous injuries are very high but the fracture of posterolateral column may be the main cause for preoperative knee dislocation in some patients.

To investigate the current status of postgraduates training in public health and preventive medicine in China. In this study, a questionnaire survey was conducted among directors of enrollment and teaching in 22 universities with postgraduate admission qualifications in corresponding disciplines nationwide. In 2016, full?time postgraduates were mainly academic masters. In addition to the graduate entrance examination, the common enrollment mode in colleges was to enroll a high qualified student with recommendations from relevant experts or institutions and an exemption from entrance examination (20/22). The emphasis on training contents between academic and public health master was different. Currently, the scale of public health postgraduate enrollment in public health and preventive medicine in China is stable, and the training program is reasonable, but there is an issue of monotonous model and uneven distribution of enrollment.
