Dyskinesia is one kind of motor complications caused by prolonged administration of levodopa to patients affected by Parkinson's disease. The mechanisms of dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease are still unknown. Recent research suggests the prevalence of dyskinesia mainly depends on genetic factors, levodopa therapy,clinical subtype, body weight and gender. Accumulating evidence indicates that assessment scales, functional magnetic resonance imaging and biomarkers could improve the clinical diagnosis and assessment of dyskinesia. In addition, a number of clinical trials of dyskinesia have indicated that new drugs such as an extended-release formulation of adamantine, and physical therapy such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation are beneficial to the treatment of dyskinesia.

Objective To construct a cardiovascular surgery nursing service action plan system based on patient's demand so as to provide a reference for nurse specialisms of cardiovascular surgery to provide good service for patients.Methods From January 2017 to June 2017, patients of cardiovascular surgery of a ClassⅢ Grade A hospital were investigated with the self-designed patients' demand for nursing service questionnaire according to literature analysis and interview results of patients. Weights of the primary index and secondary index were calculated by analytic hierarchy process so as to construct a cardiovascular surgery nursing service action plan system based on patient's demand.Results The cardiovascular surgery nursing service action plan system based on patient's demand included 5 primary indexes and 78 secondary indexes. The Cronbach's α of patients' demand for nursing service questionnaire was 0.974 with a good internal consistency. Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) was 0.843, andP value of Bartlett sphericity test was less than 0.001 with a good construct validity. The normalized weight coefficients of 5 primary indexes (physiological needs, safety needs, belongingness and love needs, self-esteem needs and self-actualization needs) were 0.2205, 0.4798, 0.0771, 0.1339 and 0.0887 respectively with 0.0488 for the consistency ratio (CR). TheCR of 21 secondary indexes of physiological needs, 19 secondary indexes of safety needs, 11 secondary indexes of belongingness and love needs, 20 secondary indexes of self-esteem needs and 7 secondary indexes of self-actualization needs was 0.0488, 0.0508, 0.0823, 0.0877 and 0.0746 respectively. TheCR was all less than 0.1 showed a satisfactory consistency in the results of hierarchy sequencing.Conclusions The construction of cardiovascular surgerynursing service action plan system based on patient's demand with the strict scientific method improves patient satisfaction. It is worth to be a reference for nursing peers and managers of cardiovascular surgery.

While several organs in mammals retain partial regenerative capability following tissue damage, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Recently, the Hippo signaling pathway, better known for its function in organ size control, has been shown to play a pivotal role in regulating tissue homeostasis and regeneration. Upon tissue injury, the activity of YAP, the major effector of the Hippo pathway, is transiently induced, which in turn promotes expansion of tissue-resident progenitors and facilitates tissue regeneration. In this review, with a general focus on the Hippo pathway, we will discuss its major components, functions in stem cell biology, involvement in tissue regeneration in different organs, and potential strategies for developing Hippo pathway-targeted regenerative medicines.

OBJECTIVE:
To determine the incidence and genotypes of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency in Dongguan region of Guangdong Province and assess the efficacy and feasibility of flow-through hybridization.
METHODS:
Peripheral blood samples were randomly selected and detected by modified G6PD/6PGD ratio method. Flow-through hybridization was used to detect 14 G6PD mutations among all samples.
RESULTS:
In total 1005 samples were collected, the detection rate for modified G6PD/6PGD ratio method and flow-through hybridization were 2.79% and 20.90%, respectively. The consistency of the two methods was poor(Kappa=0.187). When c.1311C>T mutation is excluded, the consistency of the two methods was good for males (Kappa=0.952) but still poor for females (Kappa=0.194). The most common mutations were c.1376G>T, c.1388G>A and c.95A>G. No G6PD deficiency was found among those only carrying the c.1311C>T mutation.
CONCLUSION
Flow-through hybridization can simultaneously detect 14 loci, covering over 90% of common mutations in Chinese population, and can be easily expanded. The routine method may miss many females carrying homozygous, compound heterozygous and heterozygous mutations, but the detection rate for male hemizygous mutation was much higher.

The passing of ethical review is a necessary conditions and prerequisite for the development of life science and medical research involving humans. At present, some medical and health institutions have no or insufficient ethical review capabilities. The lack of ethical review ability has become a bottleneck restricting the development of life science and medical research involving humans. According to documents such as Opinions on Deepening the Reform of the Review and Approval System and Encouraging the Innovation of Pharmaceutical and Medical Devices, Opinions on Strengthening the Ethical Governance of Science and Technology, institutions can entrust competent institutional ethics review committees or regional ethics review committees in writing to conduct ethical review. Entrustment ethical review provides a viable solution for institutions that need to carry out life science and medical research involving humans but do not have an ethics (review) committee or the ethics (review) committee is not competent to review. To conduct the entrustment ethical review, the entrustment between the principal and the trustee is required. According to The Measures for Ethical Review of Life Sciences and Medical Research Involving Humans, if medical and health institutions and their ethical review committees do not accept the formal entrustment to provide the ethical review opinions for other institutions, the local health authorities at or above the county level will impose administrative penalties and sanctions on the relevant institutions and personnel in accordance with the law. Signing the entrustment ethical review contract, implementing legal compliance entrusted ethical review to protect the rights and interests of the trustee and the principal, and protect the research participants.
