Clinical practice is quite important transition phase for medical students to become qualified doctors,and development of surgerical skills is the diffficult and key point in the clinical practice.Intensive training of surgerical skills before clinical practice can enhance the confidence and efficiency of medicine students during the course of clinical practice.Whihin limited time,the key of intensive training of surgerical skills is the training of aseptic technique and basic skills of surgery,and during the course of training,attention should be paid to both principle and details.

Objective To investigate the effect of cordyceps sinensis from different origins on immune response in mice. Methods Cordyceps sinensis from two origins were prepared into powder, and then the mice were divided into high, middle and low dose(0.4,0.2,0.1 g.kg-1)groups, respectively.In addition, purified water was given as the normal control group.Effects of cordyceps from two different origins were observed by detecting spleen lymphocyte proliferation induced by ConA, delayed type hypersensitivity ( DTH) in mice induced by sheep red blood cells ( SRBC ) , the number of antibody-producing cells, carbon clearance and peritoneal macrophages Swallow fluorescent microspheres, as well as the activity of NK cells. Results The ability of spleen lymphocyte proliferation induced by ConA, carbon clearance and peritoneal macrophages Swallow fluorescent microspheres, and the activity of NK cells were significantly enhanced in the middle and high dose group of two different origins cordyceps, compared with normal control group (P<0.05).Additionally, the number of antibody-producing cells was obviously increased in medium dose group of both origins cordyceps and decreased in the high dose group (P<0.05).The middle and high dose Qinghai cordyceps significantly improved DTH in mice, while Tibet cordyceps sinensis had no obvious effect, and there was significant difference (P<0.05) between the high dose group of Qinghai and three dose groups of Tibet Cordyceps sinensis.In addition, levels of serum hemolysin in mice were significantly increased in the middle and high dose group of Qinghai and high dose group of Tibet Cordyceps sinensis (P<0.05), and the differences of corresponding medium and high doses of two origins were significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusion Cordyceps sinensis of both different regions significantly improved the immune response of mice.However, the efficacy between the two origins was roughly equivalent and had no significant difference.

Objective To explore the outcomes of kidney transplant recipients who developed urinary and male genital cancers after transplantation. Methods Data of 31 kidney transplant recipients developed de novo urinary and male genital cancer were compared with data of 31 patients in general population with the same age and same tumor stage. Results Compared with the general population, the overall survival was significantly worse in the transplant recipients (P=0. 02) , 5-year survival rates for each group were 50% vs 68%. Multivariate analyses demonstrated cancer stage to be a negative risk factor for survival for transplant recipients with de novo urinary and male genital cancer, and surgery and functioning graft to be the positive survival predictors. Conclusions Transplant recipients experience worse outcomes than the general population from urinary and male genital cancers. Cancers in transplant recipients are more biologically aggressive at the time of diagnosis.

Objective To explore the outcome for kidney transplant recipients who suffered from cancers after transplantation. Methods De novo cancer data in 59 transplant recipients were collected. 6 cases of native renal cell carcinomas, 4 cases of native pelvo-ureteral carcinomas, 14 cases of bladder cancers, 7 cases of prostate cancers, 9 cases of hepatocellular carcinomas, 3 cases of gastric carcinomas, 2 cases of colon cancers, 1 case of pancreatic cancer, 4 cases of breast cancers, 3 cases of cervical cancers, 2 cases of skin cancers, 2 cases of non-small cell lung cancers, 1 case of thyroid cancer and 1 case of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease. These data were compared with those from 59 patients in general population with the same gender, age and tumor stage. Results Overall incidence rate for de novo malignancy post-transplantation was 1. 9 % (59/3150). Urinary cancers were the most common. Compared to the general population, the overall survival was significantly worsened in transplant recipients (P<0. 01), and 5-year survival rate in transplantation group and control group was 30 % vs 75 0 %. Multivariate analyses demonstrated cancer stage to he a negative risk factor for survival of transplant recipients with de novo cancer, and surgery and functioning graft to be the positive survival predictors. Conclusion Transplant recipients experience worse outcomes than the general population for these cancers. These data suggest that cancers in transplant recipients are more aggressive biologically at the time of diagnosis.

Objective:To correlate neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy efficacy with changes in peripheral blood T lymphocytes in patients with advanced mid-to-low rectal cancer.Methods:A total of 106 patients with rectal cancer who received treatment in Jinhua Municipal Central Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were included in this study. Fasting venous blood was taken before neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy and 7 days before surgery to measure the numbers of CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 +, CD45RA + and CD45RO + cells using flow cytometry. The optimal cut-off point was determined using the receiver operating curve. The influential factors of tumor regression grade were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. Results:After neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy, the numbers of CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 + cells were (401.86 ± 138.65), (225.83 ± 87.17), and (155.84 ± 71.19) respectively, which were significantly decreased compared with before neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy [(477.33 ± 141.74), (647.38 ± 203.19), (348.22 ± 113.75), t = 10.78, 11.17, 9.49, all P < 0.05]. There were no significant differences in the percentages of CD3 +, CD4 +, CD8 +, CD45RA + and CD45RO + cells between before and after treatment (all P > 0.05). The percentage of CD45RO + cells was significantly increased after neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy. A higher percentage of CD45RO + cells led to a lower tumor regression grade ( P < 0.05). The receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the optimal cut-off point of the percentage of CD45RO + cells was 1.08. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.774 ( P = 0.029), with a sensitivity of 82.5% and specificity of 69.6%. The logistic regression analysis revealed that the percentage of CD45RO + cells was significantly correlated with tumor regression grade ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:The percentage of CD45RO + cells in T lymphocyte subsets before and after neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy is closely related to tumor regression grade. It can be used as an indicator to predict the sensitivity of neoadjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy. This study is of great innovation and science and provides a new idea for clinical practice.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the factors affecting the efficacy of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) and establish a model for predicting the success rate of a single ESWL session in the treatment of single renal calculus.

METHODSBetween January 2008 and February 2010, 325 patients underwent ESWL monotherapy and were followed up for at most 3 months. The correlations between the outcome of a single ESWL session and the patients' age, gender, body mass index (BMI), disease duration, pretreatment renal colic, hematuria, urinary irritation symptoms, stone location, stone laterality, stone length and stone width were analyzed. The statistically significant factors identifies were further analyzed by multivariate logistic regression, and the predictive model was established.

RESULTSThe stone-free rate of ESWL was 76.9%. Univariate analysis found that the patients' age, stone laterality, stone location, disease duration, pretreatment hematuria, stone length and width all significantly affected the outcome of the treatment. Logistic regression analysis indicated the factors including disease duration, pretreatment hematuria, stone length and stone width determined the success rate of the treatment. Hosmer and Lemeshow Test showed a good fitting of the predictive model (Χ(2)=18.144, df=8, P=0.168) with an overall accuracy of 87.4%.

CONCLUSIONDisease duration, pretreatment hematuria, stone length and width are independent factors affecting the outcome of a single ESWL session for single renal calculus.

Objective:To investigate the levels of sex hormone and fertility in female patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), as well as their correlation with conditioning regimens, and analyse the effect of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in young women after HSCT.Methods:Retrospective case series study. The clinical data of 147 women who underwent HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2010 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The sex hormone levels were measured and followed-up, and the survival, menstrual fertility and the use of HRT of the patients were also followed-up. The sex hormone levels were measured after transplantation, and the ovarian function was evaluated. Independent sample t test and χ2 test were used for comparison between the two groups. Results:The median age of the 147 patients was 26 (range, 10-45) years. Of them, 135 patients received allogeneic HSCT and 12 patients received autologous HSCT. Furthermore, 129 patients received myeloablative conditioning, and 18 patients received reduced conditioning dose. The median follow-up time was 50 months (range, 18-134 months). Five patients died of disease recurrence during follow-up. Of the 54 patients with subcutaneous injection of zoladex, three recovered menstruation spontaneously after transplantation, and all of them were myeloablative conditioning patients, one patient gave birth to twins through assisted reproductive technology. Ninety-three patients did not use zoladex before conditioning, two patients with aplastic anemia with non-myeloablative transplantation resumed menstruation spontaneously, and conceived naturally. The level of follicle stimulating hormone after transplantation in patients receiving myeloablative conditioning regimen was significantly higher than that in patients receiving reduced-dose conditioning regimen [(95.28±3.94) U/L vs. (71.85±10.72) U/L, P=0.039]. Among 147 patients, 122 patients developed premature ovarian failure, 83 patients received sex hormone replacement therapy after transplantation, and 76 patients recovered menstruation and improved endocrine function. Conclusions:The incidence of premature ovarian failure is high in female patients after HSCT, and patients have a chance at natural conception. Reducing the dose of conditioning regimen and the application of zoladex before transplantation can reduce ovarian of conditioning drugs. HRT after transplantation can partially improve the endocrine function of patients.

Genetic composition plays critical roles in the pathogenesis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Especially, inherited and de novo intronic variants are often seen in patients with ASD. However, the biological significance of intronic variants is difficult to address. Here, among a Chinese ASD cohort, we identified a recurrent inherited intronic variant in the CHD7 gene, which is specifically enriched in East Asian populations. CHD7 has been implicated in numerous developmental disorders including CHARGE syndrome and ASD. To investigate whether the ASD-associated CHD7 intronic variant affects neural development, we established human embryonic stem cells carrying this variant using CRISPR/Cas9 methods and found that the level of CHD7 mRNA significantly decreased compared to control. Upon differentiation towards the forebrain neuronal lineage, we found that neural cells carrying the CHD7 intronic variant exhibited developmental delay and maturity defects. Importantly, we found that TBR1, a gene also implicated in ASD, was significantly increased in neurons carrying the CHD7 intronic variant, suggesting the intrinsic relevance among ASD genes. Furthermore, the morphological defects found in neurons carrying CHD7 intronic mutations were rescued by knocking down TBR1, indicating that TBR1 may be responsible for the defects in CHD7-related disorders. Finally, the CHD7 intronic variant generated three abnormal forms of transcripts through alternative splicing, which all exhibited loss-of-function in functional assays. Our study provides crucial evidence supporting the notion that the intronic variant of CHD7 is potentially an autism susceptibility site, shedding new light on identifying the functions of intronic variants in genetic studies of autism.
