Nowadays,the disconnection between pre-clinical medicine and clinical medicine exists in the medical postgraduate education.Application of the concept of translational medicine to the postgraduate education will play an important role in the training of medical personnel.This article gives a discussion on the means of training postgraduates by building a platform for translational medicine,reforming the curriculum,improving the research evaluation system and building cooperation among universities,hospitals and enterprises.

Objective To explore the inhibition of Zn(PMFPCl) 2 on HepG2 cells and its mechanism.Methods The HepG2 cells were divided into control group and experimental group of 10, 30 and 70 μmol/L.The cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay, cell apoptosis and cell cycle was analysed by flow cytometry, cellular morphological change was observed with inverted microscope and the expressions of apoptosis-regulated proteins of p53, p21, caspase-3, bax and bcl-2 in HepG2 cells were detected by Western blot.Results The inhibitory rates of experimental groups (10, 30, 70μmol/L) at 24, 48 and 72h were significantly higher than those of control group (P<0.05), and the highest one was 63.29% of 70 μmol/L Zn (PMFPCl)2at 72 h.The apoptosis rates of each experimental group at 48h was significantly higher than that of control group (P<0.05).The cells were induced a remarkable G1 arrest by Zn(PMFPCl) 2 which could inhibit proliferation.The number of adherent cells reduced and cells shrank, convex on cytomembrane surface appeared and the cells changed to round and were brighter.Western blot results showed that the protein levels of p53, p21, caspase-3 and bax increased and bcl-2 decreased with the Zn(PMFPCl)2concentration increasing (P<0.05).Conclusion Zn(PMFPCl)2 could inhibit the proliferation and promote apoptosis of HepG2 cells whose mechanisms are promotation of p53, p21, caspase-3 and bax expressions and inhibition of bcl-2 expression.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of polypoidal lesions and abnormal branching vascular network (BVN) in patients with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).Methods:A case series study was conducted.Untreated 45 eyes of 42 patients with initial diagnosis of PCV from May 2016 to April 2017 in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were enrolled.There were 26 males (27 eyes) and 16 females (18 eyes) with the average age of (68.59±8.52) years.All patients underwent fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA), indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and OCTA.The OCTA image features and detection rate of polypoidal lesion and BVN were analyzed.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Peking Union Medical College Hospital (No.S-K631). Written informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to any examination.Results:ICGA images showed obvious polyps with higper fluorescence in all PCV patients, and BVN structure was observed in the ICGA images of 38 eyes.Ring, circle, cluster or node like hyper-reflective structures were detected in polypoidal lesions in the en face OCTA images of 35 eyes, and the detection rate was 77.8% (35/45). The BVN structure was detected in the OCTA images of all the 38 eyes, with the 100% (38/38) detection rate.Conclusion:OCTA can detect polypoidal lesions and BVN of PCV non-invasively, which can locate the lesion in combination with en face image and B-scan image.

BACKGROUND: Literatures report that double-bundle reconstruction is a better choice for posterior cruciate ligament (PCL),but Tibial-inlay technique exhibits no significant difference.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of Tibial-inlay technique used in the PCL reconstruction with allograft tendons.METHODS: Thirty-one patients with PCL rupture were verified by arthroscopy in the Department of Orthopaedics, at the Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical College between February 2006 and May 2008, including 14 knees caused by traffic accident injury,9 knees by crashing, and 8 knees by athletic injury. All the damaged PCLs were reconstructed with allograft tendons by Tibial-inlay technique under arthroscopy. During surgery, the remnants of the original PCL were retained as much as possible,PCL femoral tunnel was prepared. By using of allogeneic patella tendon with bone block at both ends or achilles tendon allograft with bone block at one side, the lateral bone block was chipped into trapezoidal block at a width of 1.0-1.5 cm and a length of 2 cm, that is, in addition to relying on friction force to fix between bone groove and bone graft, it can also generate compressive stress and increase its stability. The PCL tibial attached point was stripped, the trapezoid bone groove was prepared according to the size of bone block at the insertion site, and allogeneic bone block was embedded into bone groove, then the other end was introduced to femoral tunnel using pulling wire through the joint, after tensed at anterior drawer site, the extrusion screw was twisted forward to fix the tendon or bone. Before operation and during follow-ups, the posterior drawer test knee instability, joint activity, Lysholm knee function scores were recorded.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: No severe complications, such as vascular nerve injury, rejection or infection, occurred in early stage after operations in 31 patients. All of them were followed up for 12-24 months. Posterior drawer test of all the subjects were above 2+ before operation, of which, 3+ and 4+ were 84%; the posterior drawer test re,suits were as the following after operation:4 cases of 0+ (normal), 17 cases of 1 +, 9 cases of 2+ and 1 case of 3+, which shows the improvement of retroposition (P ＜ 0.05);Lysholm score was remarkably improved at follow-up compared with preoperation (P ＜ 0.05), and there were significant improvements in the joint range of motion (P ＜ 0.05). The reconstruction of PCL by Tibial-inlay technique with allograft tendons has advantages of minimal trauma in surgery, reliable fixation and satisfactory outcome.

Objective To compare the fast blood flow density (FBFD) of intermediate choroid between endogenous Cushing syndrome (ECS) patients and healthy control subjects.Methods Thirteen eyes of 7 eligible ECS patients (ECS group) and 13 eyes of 7 gender,age,axial length matched healthy volunteers (control group) were enrolled in this study.For each subject,macular radial scan with swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) was performed and subfoveal choroidal thickness (SCT) was measured.Then 3.0 mm× 3.0 mm macular scan with SS-OCT angiography was performed,and selected blood flow image at intermediate choroid level or 1/2 SCT beneath Bruch membrane.The grayscale images were then binarized for the analysis of FBFD.Results The SCT in ECS group was (394.7±77.7) μm,which was significantly thicker than (332.1 ± 68.1) μm in control group (t=2.923,P=0.008).The FBFD of intermediate choroid in ECS group were (76.35± 14.46)％,which were significantly greater than (63.57± 13.42)％ in control group (t=2.775,P=0.01).Conclusion ECS patients had increased FBFD at intermediate choroid level compared with healthy controls.

Objective: To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) for the differentiation of PCV from wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD). Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from Jun 2014 to Apr 2016 at Peking Union Medical College Hospital.The case series included 132 eyes of 126 patients with clinical diagnosis of PCV or wAMD.Eyes with three or more of the following SD-OCT findings were diagnosed with PCV: double layer sign, pigment epithelium detachment (PED), a sharp PED peak, a PED notch and a hyporeflective lumen representing polypoidal lesion.The sensitivity and specificity of the OCT-based diagnosis was estimated.Levels of agreement were determined by κ analyses. Results: One hundred and twenty-six patients (132 eyes) with PCV or wAMD were enrolled in the study.In PCV patients, PED notch, a hyporeflective lumen representing polypoidal lesion, PED peak, double layer sign and PED were 38, 35, 48, 40 and 46, accounting for 67.9%, 62.5%, 85.7%, 71.4% and 82.1%, respectively.In wAMD patients, PED notch, a hyporeflective lumen representing polypoidal lesion, PED peak, double layer sign and PED were 12, 3, 11, 8 and 26, accounting for 14.5%, 10.5%, 34.2%, 15.8% and 3.9%, respectively, which were all lower than PCV, with statistically significant differences (all at P<0.001). SD-OCT detected PCV in 49 of 56 eyes and 10 PCV patients were misdiagnosed as wAMD.The sensitivity and specificity of SD-OCT for the differentiation of PCV from wAMD were 87.5% and 86.8%, respectively.The consistence between SD-OCT and imdocyanine green angiography (ICGA) was moderate (κ=0.738, P<0.001). Conclusions SD-OCT exhibits high sensitivity and specificity in PCV diagnosis.The presence of DLS, PED, a sharp PED peak, a PED notch, and a hyporeflective lumen representing polypoidal lesion is suggested to be a new diagnostic strategy for PCV.

Objective: To explore the influence of three-level collaboration network of pediatric burns in Anhui province on treatment effects of burn children. Methods: The data of medical records of pediatric burn children transferred from Lu′an People′s Hospital and Fuyang People′s Hospital to the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2014 to December 2015 and January 2016 to September 2017 (before and after establishing three-level collaboration network of pediatric burns treatment) were analyzed: percentage of transferred burn children to hospitalized burn children in corresponding period, gender, age, burn degree, treatment method, treatment result, occurrence and treatment result of shock, and operative and non-operative treatment time and cost. Rehabilitation result of burn children transferred back to local hospitals in 2016 and 2017. Data were processed with t test, chi-square test, Mann-Whitney U test, and Fisher′s exact test. Results: (1) Percentage of burn children transferred from January 2014 to December 2015 was 34.3% (291/848) of the total number of hospitalized burn children in the same period of time, which was close to 30.4% (210/691) of burn children transferred from January 2016 to September 2017 (χ²=2.672, P>0.05). (2) Gender, age, burn degree, and treatment method of burn children transferred from the two periods of time were close (χ²=3.382, Z=-1.917, -1.911, χ²=3.133, P>0.05). (3) Cure rates of children with mild, moderate, and severe burns transferred from January 2016 to September 2017 were significantly higher than those of burn children transferred from January 2014 to December 2015 (χ²=11.777, 6.948, 4.310, P<0.05). Cure rates of children with extremely severe burns transferred from the two periods of time were close (χ²=1.181, P>0.05). (4) Children with mild and moderate burns transferred from the two periods of time were with no shock. The incidence of shock of children with severe burns transferred from January 2014 to December 2015 was 6.0% (4/67), and 3 children among them were cured. The incidence of shock of children with severe burns transferred from January 2016 to September 2017 was 3.9% (2/51), and both children were cured. The incidences and cures of shock of children with severe burns transferred from the two periods of time were close (χ²=0.006, P>0.05). Incidence of shock of children with extremely severe burns transferred from January 2014 to December 2015 was 57.1% (32/56), significantly higher than that of burn children transferred from January 2016 to September 2017 [34.5% (10/29), χ²=3.925, P<0.05]. Shock of 25 children with extremely severe burns transferred from January 2014 to December 2015 were cured, and shock of 9 children with extremely severe burns transferred from January 2016 to September 2017 were cured. The cures of shock of children with extremely severe burns transferred from the two periods of time were close ( χ²=0.139, P>0.05). (5) Time of operative treatment of children with moderate, severe, and extremely severe burns transferred from January 2014 to December 2015 was obviously longer than that of burn children transferred from January 2016 to September 2017 (t=2.335, 2.065, 2.310, P<0.05). Time of operative treatment of children with mild burns transferred from the two periods of time was close (Z=-0.417, P>0.05). Costs of operative treatment of children with moderate and severe burns transferred from January 2014 to December 2015 were significantly more than those of burn children transferred from January 2016 to September 2017 (Z=-3.324, t=2.167, P<0.05). Costs of operative treatment of children with mild and extremely severe burns transferred from the two periods of time were close (t=0.627, 0.808, P>0.05). (6)Time of non-operative treatment of children with mild, moderate, and severe burns transferred from January 2014 to December 2015 was obviously longer than that of burn children transferred from January 2016 to September 2017 (t=2.335, Z=-2.095, t=2.152, P<0.05). Time of non-operative treatment of children with extremely severe burns transferred from the two periods of time was close (t=0.450, P>0.05). Costs of non-operative treatment of children with moderate and severe burns transferred from January 2014 to December 2015 were obviously higher than those of burn children transferred from January 2016 to September 2017 (Z=-2.164, t=2.040, P<0.05). Costs of non-operative treatment of children with mild and extremely severe burns transferred from the two periods of time were close (t=0.146, 1.235, P>0.05). (7) Sixty-seven burn children transferred from January 2016 to September 2017 were transferred back to local hospitals for rehabilitation under the guidance of experts of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, with 25 patients in 2016 and 42 patients in 2017. Effective rehabilitation rates of burn children transferred back to local hospitals for rehabilitation in 2016 and 2017 were both 100%. Conclusions The three-level collaboration network of pediatric burns treatment in Anhui province can effectively increase cure rate of children with mild, moderate, and severe burns, reduce incidence of shock of children with extremely severe burns, shorten time of operative treatment of burn children with moderate, severe, and extremely severe burns, and time of non-operative treatment of children with mild, moderate, and severe burns, reduce treatment costs of children with moderate and severe burns, and improve rehabilitation effectiveness of children transferred from Lu′an People′s Hospital and Fuyang People′s Hospital to the the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University.

Objective To investigate the role of epigenetic regulations of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) in the development of diabetic retinopathy and the metabolic memory phenomenon after hyperglycemia was terminated.Methods Diabetic rat model was established by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ).Sixty diabetic rats were randomly divided into 3 groups,poor glycemic control group rats were maintained in poor glycemic control for 4 months;semi glycemic control group rats were maintained in poor glycemic control for 2 months,followed by good glycemic control for 2 additional months;good glycemic control group rats were maintained in good glycemic control for 4 months.Twenty normal rats served as control group.The mRNA expression of PGC-1α and superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) of retina were measured by real-time PCR;the expression of PGC-1α and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) protein were measured by Western blot;the situation of DNA methylation in the promotor region of PPARGC1A was measured by bisulfite sequencing.Results The body-weight in the control group was significantly higher than that in the poor glycemic control group,semi glycemic control group and good glycemic control group (all at P =0.000).The blood glucose value in the poor glycemic control group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P =0.000).The expression levels of PGC-1 α mRNA were significantly lower and the expression levels of SOD2 mRNA were significantly higher in the good glycemic control group,semi glycemic control group and poor glycemic control group than those in the control group (all at P＜0.05).The expression levels of PGC-1α and SOD2 mRNA were significantly different between the good glycemic control group and poor glycemic control group (both at P＜0.05).Compared with the control group,the expression levels of PGC-1α and MnSOD protein were decreased in the diabetic model groups,with significant differences between them (all at P＜0.05).The expression level of PGC-1 α protein was significantly higher in the good glycemic control group than that in the poor glycemic control group (P＜0.05).Diabetes increased DNA methylation in the promotor region of PPARGC1A gene of retina.The DNA methylation level was significantly higher in the poor glycemic control group and semi glycemic control group than that in the control group (P =0.008,0.031).No statistical difference was found between the poor glycemic control group and semi glycemic control group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The expressions of PGC-1o mRNA and protein and MnSOD protein in the retina of STZ induced diabetic rats are decreased,the expression of SOD2 mRNA is increased,the expression changes have metabolic memory characteristics.Increased DNA methylation in the promotor region of PPARGC1A when exposed to high glucose may have a role in the regulation of PGC-1 α expression and metabolic memory.
