Methods Questionnaire survey has been conducted among all undergraduates of public health department in Wuhan University. The questionnaire includes the level of internationalization, compound and practice innovation activities. At the same time, students' quality of life has been investigated using the WHOQOL-BREF. SPSS13.0 has been used to make statistical analysis. Scores between groups has been compared utilizing t test, analysis of variance has been made and influence factors has been ana-lyzed utilizing multiple linear regression. Results The average of the undergraduate graduates' quality of life total score is(3.54±0.77),with a scoring rate of 70.9%. The dimension with the highest scoring rate is social relations, and its scoring rate is 75.1%. The dimension with the lowest scoring rate is environment, with scoring rate 65.9%. Compared with the norm, the scores of the overall quality of life, physical health, social relations and environment are all above the norm(P<0.05). The result of multiple linear regression indicates that female(t=-2.338, P=0.020), students from high income family(t=3.512, P=0.001) and students with a high degree of practice innovation activity participation(t=3.515, P=0.001) have a high quality of life. Conclusion The students' quality of life from school of public health, Wuhan University is slightly higher than the general population. The quality of life is influenced significantly by part of cultivating ways. There is a need which personnel training mode is innovated in order to improve the quality of cultivation.

Objective To study the compatibility of TCM prescriptions of TCM practitioners of all dynasties of Alzheimer disease (AD). Methods Amnesia, forgetting, dementia, and idiot were set as search words to retrieve relevant literature in Encyclopadia of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Prescription information was screened and standardized to build database. Frequency analysis and association rules were used to mine TCM prescriptions and compatibility rules. Results Totally 449 AD related prescriptions were selected, involving 682 Chinese medicinal herbs. The individual herb with the highest frequency was Ginseng Radix Rhizoma (192);the herbal pair with the highest frequency was Ginseng Radix Rhizoma-Polyhalae Radix (182);the herbal combination with 3 Chinese medicinal herbs with the highest frequency was Poria with Hostwood-Ginseng Radix Rhizoma-Polyhalae Radix (79);the herbal combination with 4 Chinese medicinal herbs with the highest frequency was Polyhalae Radix-Ginseng Radix Rhizoma-Poria with Hostwood-Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma (37). The results of association rules showed that Ginseng Radix Rhizoma-Polyhalae Radix, Ginseng Radix Rhizoma-Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, and Ginseng Radix Rhizoma-Poria with Hostwood were commonly used compatibilities in AD related prescriptions. Conclusion Treatment of TCM practitioners in all dynasties for AD mainly chooses Chinese medicinal herbs with the efficacy of tonifying qi and soothing nerves. The compatibilities and combinations are reasonable and with certain representativeness.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for promoting the rational use of essential drugs in primary medical institutions. METHODS:Twenty-three rural primary medical institutions(8 township health centers,15 village clinics)were randomly selected from 2 poverty-stricken counties in Chongzuo city of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. The utilization of essential drugs was investigated and analyzed statistically through exporting hospital information system data and on-site interviews. RESULTS:The utilization rate of essential drugs in sample township health centers was 72.4％,and the amount of essential drugs accounted for 78.3％. The utilization rate of variety from National List of Essential Drug was 36.9％,which in the Autonomous Regions Essential Drug List Supplement was 47.2％(utilization rate of chemical drugs was 53.9％,and that of Chinese patent drugs was 39.7％). The utilization rate of essential drugs in sample village clinics was 64.4％;utilization rate of variety from National List of Essential Drug was 18.3％, which in the Autonomous Regions Essential Drug List Supplement was 10.5％. The amount of 5 major categories accounted for 47.9％ of total amount of chemical agents,among which that of antimicrobial agents took up the highest proportion,being 35.9％. Among top 10 drugs in the list of amount,there were 8 national essential drugs and 4 antimicrobial agents. There were 2.90 kinds of drugs in each outpatient prescription averagely in sample township health centers;the average proportion of antibiotic prescription was 43.0％;the cost of each prescription was 33.12 yuan in average. CONCLUSIONS:The utilization rate of essential drugs in primary medical institutions is lower than the requirements of policy. There are great difference in utilization rate between chemical agents and Chinese patent drugs of township hospital in Autonomous Regions Essential Drug List Supplement. The cost proportion of antimicrobial agents is high. The rationality of prescription drug use still needs to be improved. It is suggested to guarantee essential drugs supply,adjust Autonomous Regions Essential Drug List Supplement in time,control the price of main categories and strengthen antimicrobial agent use monitoring so as to further promote rational drug use.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the current status and problems of medicine purchase and distribution of county,township public medical institutions in Hubei province,and to propose targeted policy recommendations. METHODS:By stratified typical sampling,medicine data of 3 county medical institutions and 40 township medical institutions in 3 counties of Hubei province were collected from medicine bidding and purchasing platform of county health and family planning bureau and hospital information system (HIS). Medicine purchase and distribution,distribution rate,purchase and distribution of essential medicine,Chinese patent medicine and injection,general information of top 10 medicines in the list of purchase amount were analyzed in different levels of medical institutions. RESULTS:The medicine purchase and distribution amount of the township medical institutions were lower than those of county medical institutions, but the total amount and distribution rate were higher than county medical institutions. The purchase amount of essential medicine accounted for nearly 3/4 of the total amount (90.6％ of the township medical institutions,and 48.4％ of the county medical institutions);the purchase amount of Chinese patent medicine accounted for about 1/4 of the total amount (35.4％ of the township medical institutions,15.4％ of the county medical institutions);purchase amount of injection accounted for nearly half (34.6％ of the township medical institutions,and 59.3％ of the county medical institutions). The distribution rates of essential medicine,Chinese patent medicine and injection were 93.0％,93.3％,and 93.2％in township medical institutions,and 81.8％,78.6％ and 79.6％ in county medical institutions,respectively. The rate of medicine distribution of township medical institutions was higher than that of the county medical institutions. The top 10 medicines in the list of purchase amount included 6 kinds of antibiotics,and the top 5 medicines included 2 kinds of injection. CONCLUSIONS:The policy of essential medicine purchase is well implemented in Hubei province,and purchase rate of essential medicine meet the policy requirements(40％-50％);but the proportion of injection purchase can partly reflect the high usage of injection,which may indicate the abuse of injection, and Chinese patent medicine has become an integral part of medicine purchase. Moreover, medicines still have the status of distribution untimely,and medicine distribution of the township medical institutions is better than that of county medical institutions.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for promoting the rational use of essential medicines in primary medical institutions.METHODS:Twenty six rural primary medical institutions (13 township health centers,13 village clinics) were randomly selected from 2 poverty-stricken county (city) in Huanggang city of Hubei province.The utilization of essential medicine was investigated and analyzed statistically through exporting hospital information system data and on-site interviews.RESULTS:The utilization rate of essential medicine in sample township health centers was 76.9％,and the amount of essential medicine accounted for 93.0％;the utilization rate of essential medicine in sample village clinics was 89.7％.The utilization rate of variety from essential medicine list was 53.6％ in sample township health centers and 25.0％ in sample village clinics;the utilization rate of variety from National Essential Medicine List was higher than that of Provincial Essential Medicine List Supplement.The amount of 5 major categories as antimicrobial agents,cardiovascular agent in sample primary medical institutions accounted for 64.7％ of chemical agents.The top ten medicines in the list of amount were all essential medicine,9 of which were national essential medicines.There were 2.8 kinds of medicines in each outpatient prescription averagely in sample township health centers.The proportion of antibiotic prescription was 44.2％.CONCLUSIONS:The utilization rate of essential medicines in township health centers of this area is lower than WHO recommended value,and the ratio of amount meets the policy requirements.The utilization rate of variety from Provincial Essential Medicine List Supplement is in low level in primary medical institutions;the amount of anti-microbial drugs is in high level;the rationality of medicine use in prescriptions needs to be improved.It is suggested to adjust the type of provincial supplement list dynamically according to actual situation and control the price and amount of main categories strictly,the rationality of prescription.

Objective:To investigate the pathogenic gene locus and prenatal genetic diagnosis of 54 families with oculocutaneous albinism (OCA).Methods:This retrospective study enrolled 54 OCA probands and their families from Gansu Province Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from May 2014 to May 2020. TYR gene variation screening was performed on the probands by Sanger sequencing. Those with negative results were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing, and further verification was performed on their parents by Sanger sequencing. Among the 54 families, 15 ml amniotic fluid were collected from 16 women at 18-21 gestational weeks in their subsequent pregnancy. Sanger sequencing combined with short tandem repeats sequence for linkage analysis were performed for genetic analysis. All data were analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis. Results:Out of the 54 OCA probands, 48 were diagnosed as OCA1, five were OCA2 and one was OCA4 based on the Sanger sequencing and high-throughput sequencing detection. A total of 26 different variation sites were involved in the 48 OCA1 probands, including 15 missense mutations, five nonsense mutations, three splicing mutations, and three frame-shift mutations, among which, c.929insC (29%, 28/96) was the most frequent mutation, followed by c.896G>A (11%, 11/96), c.832C>T (8%, 8/96) and c.703T>C (5%, 5/96). The diagnosis was confirmed in all 16 fetuses in the 16 families that underwent prenatal diagnosis. Five of them were affected and their mothers chose to terminate the pregnancies, the other 11 pregnancies continued to delivery, including seven heterozygous carriers and four fetuses without the same pathogenic allele as the proband. Maternal contamination was excluded in all prenatal samples using short tandem repeat for linkage analysis. All 11 children were in good health during telephone follow-up one month after birth. Postnatal validations were consistent with the prenatal tests.Conclusions:Genetic diagnosis could accurately identify various types of OCA and help to provide prenatal diagnosis and fertility consultation for subsequent pregnancies.

Objective:To carry out genetic analysis for 3 children from two Chinese families affected with maple syrup urine disease (MSUD).Methods:Target capture - next-generation sequencing and Sanger sequencing were used to detect pathogenic variants associated with MSUD.Results:The proband from family 1 was found to harbor homozygous c. 560G>T (p.Gly187Val) variant of the BCKDHB gene (NM_000056), whilst the two patients from family 2 were found to harbor compound heterozygous variants c. 197-2A>G (splicing)/c.218delT (p.F74Sfs*4) of the BCKDHB gene. Among these, the c. 560G>T and c. 218delT variants were unreported previously. Conclusion:The new variants discovered in this study have expanded the mutational spectrum of the BCKDHB gene.

Objective:To explore the genetic basis of eighteen patients with tetrahydrobiopterin deficiency (BH4D) from Gansu Province.Methods:Eighteen patients diagnosed with BH4D at Gansu Provincial Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from January 2018 to December 2021 were selected as the study subjects. Whole exome sequencing was carried out, and candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing.Results:All of the thirty-six alleles of the eighteen patients were successfully determined by molecular genetic testing. Sixteen patients were found to harbor variants of the PTS gene, and two had harbored variants of the QDPR gene. Ten variants were detected in the PTS gene, with the most common ones being c. 259C>T (34.38%) and c. 286G>A (15.63%). Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the c. 259C>T was classified as a pathogenic variant, whilst the c. 286G>A, c. 166G>A, c. 200C>T, c. 272A>G, c. 402A>C, c. 421G>T, c. 84-291A>G and c. 317C>T were classified as likely pathogenic variants. A novel c. 289_290insCTT variant was classified as likely pathogenic (PM1+ PM2_Supporting+ PM3+ PP3+ PP4). The two variants (c.478C>T and c. 665C>T) detected in the QDPR gene were both classified as variants of uncertain significance (PM1+ PM2_Supporting+ PP3+ PP4). Conclusion:Genetic testing has clarified the pathogenic variants in these BH4D patients, which has enabled timely and accurate clinical intervention and treatment, and provided a reference for genetic counseling and reproductive guidance for their families.
