Objective To systematically assess the efficiency of colonoscopy screening for the asymptomatic elderly.Methods A search was performed to identify studies related to colonoscopy screening for the aged in Pubmed and Embase.The key words used for the search included colorectal neoplasm, adenoma, screening, elderly, and colonoscopy.The detection rate of colorectal adenomas, advanced adenomas,colorectal cancer in the elderly and non-elderly were extracted.The studies were evaluated and analyzed by software RevMan 5.3.Results Twelve studies involving 312 111 cases were included(25 107 elderly and 287 004 non-elderly).The total AADR of the elderly was 9.97％ ,ADR was 11.33％ ,while CRC detection rate Was 1.79％.The meta-analysis showed that there were significant differences in the AADR(RR =1.57,95％ CI: 1.51-1.64), ADR(RR =1.22, 95％ CI: 1.19-1.25) and CRC detection rate(RR =2.6,95％ CI:2.34-2.90) between the elderly and the younger patients (P ＜ 0.000 01).The detection rate of AADR,ADR, CRC in the elderly were significantly higher than the non-elderly.Conclusion The elderly have higher AADR and CRC detection rate than the younger.But further studies are needed because life expectancy and complications are factors that need to be considered for screening.

The traditional discipline-centered curriculum design can neither keep up with developments of modern medical science nor reach requirements of the education reform in the new century.Since 2011,College of Stomatology in School of Medicine in Shanghai Jiao Tong University had developed ‘ disease oriented integrated curriculum system reform’ for students of long-term stomatology education.In view of the problems existing in the original curriculum system,the integrated curriculum system was set up by coalescing clinical medicine curriculum according to the related systems and oral medicine curriculum according to the developmental rules of diseases.Lectures were combined with discussion classes in the reform and performance appraisal system was changed from simplex judgments into comprehensive evaluations.At last,further considerations of promoting the reform based on the practice were proposed.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic and therapentic value of ERCP for choledocholithiasis.Methods ERCT and EST in 142 cases with suspected choledoholithiasis were performed for treating choledocholithiasis.All the imaging data were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among 142 cases,128 cases were choledocholithiasis,3 cases were suspected choledocholithiasis,6 cases were normal and 5 cases were miss-diagnosis.The diagnostic accuracy of ERCT was 90.1%(128/142).EST were successful in 129 cases,and 4 cases were failure,the successful rate was 96.9%.Conclusion ERCT is of important value in diaguosing choledocholithiasis and EST is safe and reliable for treating choledocholithiasis.

Objective To investigate the curative effect of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) and the method of the pretreatment choice on myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).Methods 13 cases who were undergoing allo-HSCT including 10 HLA-matched, 2 HLA partially matched,and one umbilical cord blood transplanted patients were enrolled in this study. The infusion number of MNC and CD+34 cells is 6.92 (2.65-21.33)×108/kg and 4.47 (1.49-10.22) ×106/kg, respectively. Of the 13 cases,5 adopted TBI, fludarabine(Flud), and cyclophosphamide(Cy) pretreatment, 3 chose BU/Cy pretreatment, and 3 chose TBI and Cy pretreatment, 2 chose Ara-C+BU+Cy+VM26 pretreatment. In order to prevent GVHD, 2cases of HLA partially matched were treated with ATG, cyclosporin A (CsA), MTX and MMF aftertransplantation, while the others were treated with CsA and MTX only. Results 9 out of 13 cases achieved hematopoietic reconstruction completely. 4 died of complications. Conclusion The allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an efficient regimen to cure MDS. The pretreatment should adopt the individuation.

Objective:To observe the dynamic variation of serum ferritin (SF), folic acid, and vitamin B_(12) levels in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) at different disease stages. Methods:Serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels were successively tested in thirty-six patients with primary APL every 1 to 3 months by using chemiluminescence analysis. Five different disease stages were selected as dynamic observation time points: first diagnosed, first complete remission (CR1), six months after CR1, relapsed stage,and CR1 for three years. Results:There were 75.0%(27/36)of patients with abnormal high levels of SF, 77.8% (28/36)of patients with abnormal low levels of folic acid, and 100%(36/36)of patients with increased vitamin B_(12) levels in first diagnosed stage. The number of patients with abnormal variations of SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) level was decreased in CR1 stage compared with those in first diagnosed stage (SF: P<0.05;folic acid and vitamin B_(12): P<0.01). The serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels tended to recover step by step with chemotherapy. At six months after CR1 the three parameters of most patients recovered to normal levels. APL was relapsed in 4 patients after 1-year CR. Both SF and vitamin B_(12) levels were increased and the folic acid level was decreased compared with those before replase, but the difference had no significance (P>0.05). The serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels were in normal ranges in the patients who had 3-year CR. Conclusion:The serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels had dynamic variation in APL course. Increase in serum SF and vitamin B_(12) as well as decrease in folic acid are related with the active degree of APL and its tumor load.

ObjectiveTo research the relationship between the plasma levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and the onset and progress of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and the severity of coronary lesions in patients with ACS.MethodsSeventy-eight patients hospitalized with chest pain were enrolled,including 41 patients with ACS (ACS group),17 patients with stable angina pectoris(SAP,SAP group) and 20 patients serving as control (control group).Forty-one patients undergoing coronary angiography were divided into single vessel lesions group (7 patients),double vessel lesions group (7 patients),multiple vessel lesions group ( 12 patients) and no vessel lesions group ( 15 patients) based on the vessel lesions of the left anterior descending,left circumflex artery and right coronary artery.According to the diameter stenosis of major coronary artery,there were 15 patients in no vascular stenosis group,2 patients in mild vascular stenosis group,6 patients in moderate vascular stenosis group and 18 patients in severe vascular stenosis group.The levels of MPO were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays(ELISA).ResultsThe levels of MPO in ACS group [( 252.10 ± 27.07 ) μ g/L]were higher than those in SAP group[( 185.81 ± 17.85 ) μ g/L]and control group [( 140.42 ± 71.40) μ g/L](P ＜ 0.05 ),the levels of MPO in SAP group were higher than those in control group(P＜ 0.05 ).The levels of MPO in single vessel lesions group and multiple vessel lesions group were higher than those in no vessel lesions group (P ＜ 0.05 ),but there was no significant difference among single vessel lesions group,double vessel lesions group and multiple vessel lesions group (P ＞ 0.05 ).The levels of MPO in mild vascular stenosis group,moderate vascular stenosis group and severe vascular stenosis group were higher than those in no vascular stenosis group (P ＜ 0.05),but there was no significant differenceamong mild vascular stenosis group,moderate vascular stenosis group and severe vascular stenosis group(P ＞ 0.05 ).A positive correlation was observed between the levels of MPO and neutrophils (r =0.288,P=0.018 ),creatine kinase isoenzyme-MB(r =0.469,P=0.043 ),subject groups( r =0.757,P=0.000),vessel lesions (r =0.584,P=0.000) and the degree of vascular stenosis (r =0.491,P=0.001).Conclusion MPO may predict ACS and reflect the severity of coronary lesions in ACS as a novel inflammatory marker.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and outcome of transcatheter patent foramen ovale (PFO) closure in patients with cryptogenic stroke (CS). Methods: Sixty consecutive patients with cryptogenic stroke who undertook transcatheter PFO closure between May 2015 and September 2017 in Beijing Tiantan Hospital were enrolled in this prospective study.Transcranial Doppler (TCD) bubble test was performed and right-left shunt(RLS) was confirmed in all patients.Closure success rate,effective closure rate, complications, recurrence of ischemic stroke and new onset atrial fibrillation were evaluated. Results: A total of 60 patients (42 male,age range 24-68 (47±11)years) were included in the study.PFO size (motionless state) was (1.6±0.6)mm.RLS before closure was graded and 11 patients had moderate RLS and 48 patients had large RLS (include 41 patients who experienced shower or curtain effect).Closure success rate was 100% (60/60).No severe complications were observed.At 6 months,45 patients completed TCD bubble test.Of these, 4 patients suffered from moderate to large residual and thus effective closure rate was 91%(41/45).The mean follow-up period was 2-29 (median 12) months. During the follow-up, only 1 patient experienced recurrent cerebral infarction.New onset atrial fibrillation was not detected. Conclusion Transcatheter PFO closure is effective,safe and related with a good outcome in reduction of recurrent CS for patients with PFO.

Objective To understand the compliance of highly active anti-retroviral therapy (HAART) and influencing factors in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in Nanjing. Methods PLWHA receiving HAART in No. 2 Hospital of Nanjing during May-June 2014 were recruited in this study. Self-administrated questionnaire was used to collect the data about HAART compliance and socio-demographic characteristics of PLWHA surveyed. Descriptive and multivariate statistical analysis were conducted to examine the effects of the factors on self-reported HAART adherence. Results A total of 276 PLWHA were surveyed,According to the evaluation criterion of Center for Adherence Support Evaluation (CASE),252 cases showed good compliance (91.3%). logistic regression analysis revealed that smoking,progress of the disease and side effects,reminding of taking drug and age were correlated with self-reported HAART adherence. Conclusion It is suggested to strengthen the education about antiviral therapy compliance in PLWHA with mild infection and those who are smokers and young,suffer from side effects,have no reminding methods for taking drug.

Objective To reduce the cancer burden in the Jinchang cohort and provide evidence for developing cancer prevention strategies and performing effectiveness evaluation in the Jinchang cohort.We are fitting thirteen years of cancer mortality data from the Jinchang cohort by using six kinds of predicting methods to compare relative fitness and to select good predicting methods for the prediction of cancer mortality trends.Methods The mortality data of cancer in Jinchnag cohort from 2001-2013 were fitted using six kinds of predicting methods:dynamic series,linear regression,exponential smoothing,autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model,grey model (GM),and Joinpoint regression.Weight coefficients of combination models were calculated by four methods:the arithmetic average method,the variance inverse method,the mean square error inverse method,and the simple weighted average method.Results The cancer mortality was fitted and compared by using six kinds of forecasting methods;the fitting precision of the Joinpoint linear regression had the highest accuracy (87.64％),followed by linear regression (87.32％),the dynamic series (86.99％),GM (1,1) (86.25％),exponential smoothing (85.72％) and ARIMA (1,0,0) (81.98％),respectively.Prediction accuracy of the combination model derived from GM (1,1) and linear regression (＞99％) was higher than that of the combination model derived from ARIMA (1,0,0) and GM (1,1).The combination model derived from the GM (1,1) and linear regression,with weight coefficients based on the arithmetic average method and the mean square error inverse method,had the best prediction effect of the four weight calculation methods.Conclusion Prediction accuracy of the combination model,with accuracy ＞95％,was higher than that of the single prediction methods.

Objective To understand the dominant pathogens of febrile respiratory syndrome (FRS) patients in Gansu province and to establish the Bayes discriminant function in order to identify the patients infected with the dominant pathogens.Methods FRS patients were collected in various sentinel hospitals of Gansu province from 2009 to 2015 and the dominant pathogens were determined by describing the composition of pathogenic profile.Significant clinical variables were selected by stepwise discriminant analysis to establish the Bayes discriminant function.Results In the detection of pathogens for FRS,both influenza virus and rhinovirus showed higher positive rates than those caused by other viruses (13.79％,8.63％),that accounting for 54.38％,13.73％ of total viral positive patients.Most frequently detected bacteria would include Streptococcus pneumoniae,and haemophilus influenza (44.41％,18.07％) that accounting for 66.21％ and 24.55％ among the bacterial positive patients.The original-validated rate of discriminant function,established by 11 clinical variables,was 73.1％,with the cross-validated rate as 70.6％.Conclusion Influenza virus,Rhinovirus,Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae were the dominant pathogens of FRS in Gansu province.Results from the Bayes discriminant analysis showed both higher accuracy in the classification of dominant pathogens,and applicative value for FRS.
