CONCLUSIONS In field hospital, effective prevention and control of nosocomial infection is the premises of improving healing rate and rejoining rate of the wounded.

It is difficult for the patients with low cure rate to achieve the requirements of the"but for rule"or "preponderance of evidence standard" in the traditional causal argument. In dealing with such cases ,judicial practice has tried to broaden the concept of damage ,and adopt the theories of"loss of chance" ,"expectation infringement theory"or"comparative possibility theory" ,with the purpose to make up for the applicable dilemma of traditional causality. However ,the expansion of the concept of the damage will objectively cause some problems like abuse of rights ,concrete right becoming nothing and even subjective imputation.In the current legal system ,we can analogical apply the rule of joint dangerous act ,and correct the causal relationship to resolve such incidents. It will be more fair and just .

Big coronary artery aneurysm (CAA) is attributed to Kawasaki disease atherosclerosis,connective tissue disease,Takayasus disease,and can be congenital.The pathophysiology of CAA is incompletely understood up to now. The big CAA could induce angina and myocardial infarction.

Many researchers employed mammalian expression system to artificially express cannabinoid receptors, but immunoblot data that directly prove efficient protein expression can hardly be seen in related research reports. In present study, we demonstrated cannabinoid receptor protein was not able to be properly expressed with routine mammalian expression system. This inefficient expression was rescued by endowing an exogenous signal peptide ahead of cannabinoid receptor peptide. In addition, the artificially synthesized cannabinoid receptor was found to aggregate under routine sample denaturing temperatures (i.e., [Symbol: see text]95°C), forming a large molecular weight band when analyzed by immuno-blotting. Only denaturing temperatures [Symbol: see text]75°C yielded a clear band at the predicted molecular weight. Collectively, we showed that efficient mammalian expression of cannabinoid receptors need a signal peptide sequence, and described the requirement for a low sample denaturing temperature in immuno-blot analysis. These findings provide very useful information for efficient mammalian expression and immuno-blotting of membrane receptors.

Based on a research on judicial cases concerning the authenticity of electronic medical records in the past three years, the authors encountered judicial dilemmas in judicial practice. The challenges arise due to the special manifestations of electronic medical records, unclear and disputable criteria for the authenticity of electronic medical records, low application level of electronic medical records identification, and inconsistent responsibility attribution. In order to effectively apply the electronic medical record system, it is recommend to promote pre-litigation prevention by unifying the construction standards of the computerized patient record system, strengthening hospital electronic medical record management and entrusting third-party storage to ensure the evidential weight. In addition, it is necessary to establish standards for authenticity of medical records, improve the electronic medical record forensic identification system and clarify the attribution of the responsibility for untrue medical records, so as to improve the handling of such medical damage cases during litigation.

Objective:To explore the relationship between knowledge of a friend's non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) behavior and self injury and suicide behaviors of adolescents.Methods:From January 2020 to January 2021, totally 1 683 students from a middle school in Xiamen were randomly selected by cluster sampling.The suicide items of the self-injurious thoughts and behaviors interview(SITBT) were used to assess whether students were aware of their friends' self injurious history and their self injurious behaviors.The suicide items of the mini international neuropsychiatric interview for children and adolescents (MINI-KID) were used to assess students' suicide ideation and behavior.The data were statistically analyzed by SPSS 21.0 software.Logistic regression model was used to analyze the relationship between knowledge of a friend's NSSI and adolescents' own self-reported NSSI and suicidal behaviors.Results:A total of 1 683 junior and senior high school students completed the survey, including 412 (24.4%) who knew their friend's NSSI history and 1 271 (75.6%) who did not know their friend's NSSI history.There were statistically significant differences between the adolescents known and unknown friends' NSSI histories in terms of age, gender, whether they were left-behind children, mental disorders, their own NSSI, suicide attempts, and suicidal ideation (all P<0.05). Knowledge of a friend's NSSI behavior had positive predictive effect on adolescents' own NSSI behavior ( β=0.558, OR=2.01, 95% CI=1.58-3.88), suicidal ideation( β=0.238, OR=3.03, 95% CI=2.08-5.55), and suicide attempts ( β=0.233, OR=2.88, 95% CI=1.55-5.45) (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Knowledge of a friend's NSSI behavior may have an impact on adolescents' own self-injury and suicidal behavior.

Objective To establish a safe and effective method of rhesus monkey biopsy to take liver and kidney samples under B-mode ultrasound guidance. Methods A total of 4 adult monkeys(weight:8-12 kg; sex: male; age:11 -12 years old)were anaesthetized with 5 -10 mg/kg of ketamine hydrochloride for each through intramuscular injection. After successful anesthesia, abdominal shaving and iodophor disinfection, they were monitored from intercostal area of right upper quadrant or lateral waist subcostal abdomen portions to find liver or kidney organ by MyLab 30CV B-mode ultrasonography with 3.5 Hz transducer which was fixed with a guiding frame. Large vessels such as the portal vein and inferior vena cava were carefully avoided. The range of the biopsy gun was set to 15 mm. When the puncture target and the puncture needle were positioned in the guide line, the puncture target was perpendicular to the puncture needle, and then the trigger button of the puncture needle was pressed to obtain the liver or kidney tissue samples respectively. After puncture,the needle was pulled out quickly. The obtained liver and kidney tissues were used to extract RNA. Results About 13 mg of liver or kidney tissue was obtained by each puncture with volume convertion. This method was fast,reliable and safe,and the total RNA had high purity and integrity. There was no postoperative bleeding and infection. Conclusions This is a very important method for obtaining liver and kidney tissue samples of rhesus monkeys with the guidance of ultrasound. With this method, the research cost can be reduced, the life quality and animal welfare of laboratory non-human primates can be improved,and the accuracy of experimental result can be ensured.

With the rapid development of " Internet+ healthcare" , medical data has gained an ever important role. How to determine the reasonable use boundary of medical data and leverage its supporting role, has grown an urgent problem to be solved. The authors analyzed the characteristics of medical data, and held that medical data is not equivalent to information, as it does not have the characteristics of legal objects in nature. In addition, it lacks originality. Therefore it is difficult to protect through the existing rights system. However, due to its property interest and personality, the authors tried to establish a new right for protection. In the construction of such medical data right, the authors claimed that patients should be the subject of the right, and medical institutions can appropriately restrict the freedom of patients′ through reasonable use rules and legal licensing system. In this way, we can not only promote medical data sharing and the development of social health, but also fully protect the legitimate rights and interests of patients.
