In control effect of glycosylated hemoglobin, there was no statistically significant difference[MD=-0.04 ,95％CI:(-0.20,0.11), P=0.58],between Exenatide and insulin. Compared with the insulin, Exenatide reduce BMI more apparent[MD=-2.77,(95％CI: -3.34,-2.20),P<0.00001]; Compared with the insulin, Exenatide reduce insulin resistance index, the effect is more obvious[MD=-1.67,95％CI:(-1.93,-1.41), P<0.00001]; Adverse reaction in the process of treatment, the insulin is more likely to lead to hypoglycemia, [OR = 0.32, 95％ CI: 0.19, 0.54), P<0.0001]; While Exenatide are more likely to lead to gastrointestinal adverse reaction [OR = 4.04, 95％ CI: 2.35, 6.93), P<0.00001).Conclusion According to the Meta-analysis: Exenatide can be used in the treatment of oral hypoglycemic drugs of adult obesity with type 2 diabetes, and obvious effects of treatment of insulin resistance, long-term results still needs a large number of samples of high quality RCT to verify.

Palliative and hospice care is an emerging medical care model for the development of modern medicine,and its emergence is not only a sign of social demand and the development of human civilization,but also an important manifestation of the change in the modern medical model.Hospice care is the final stage of palliative care,which is of great significance for the end-of-life treatment of incurable diseases.Palliative and hospice care has become an independent discipline in many countries,and its development has been rapid.However,the develop-ment of hospice and palliative care in China is not satisfactory,and the lack of money and human resources are the main reasons limiting its development.Many scholars have carried out a lot of useful practices in this regard.How to explore a road of hospice and palliative care development suitable for China′s national conditions is an urgent problem to be solved.By reviewing domestic and foreign literature,this paper summarizes the development mode and payment method of palliative and hospice care abroad,identifies the challenges encountered in the practice of hospice care in China,and draws on the development experience of palliative and hospice care in foreign countries.We aimed to identify pain points and difficulties faced in developing palliative and hospice care in China,so as to better serve patients at the end of life,gradually promote the concept of palliative and hospice care,and contribute to the sustainable development of palliative and hospice care in China.

Objective:To implement the teaching activities for cultivating the four characteristics (innovation, development, integration, and ecology) and the four abilities (political ability, learning ability, cross-border ability, and driving force), and to provide a reference for improving the capability of service-based education in basic teaching organizations.Methods:The basic teaching organization in School of Basic Medical Sciences, Qiqihar Medical University, was selected for research, and the action research method and the focus group interview method were used to carry out characteristic teaching activities around the cultivation of the four characteristics and the four abilities. After the implementation of these activities, Sojump, a questionnaire platform, was used to conduct a survey among full-time and part-time teachers and teaching administrators, and the effect of each activity on the cultivation of the four characteristics and the four abilities was analyzed. The strategies to enhance abilities were improved based on the results of the above analyses. SPSS 25.0 software was used for data processing, and categorical data were expressed as frequency and percentage.Results:The data analysis showed that through cultivation of the four characteristics and the four abilities, each designed activity had a remarkable effect on improving the capability of service-based education in the basic teaching organization, with a mean value of 80.77%(63/78)- 91.03%(71/78), and only the activities centered on "integration" had a relatively low value of "obvious effect", which accounted for 64.10%(50/78).Conclusion:Under the guidance of the new concept of "New Medicine" and with the opportunity of capacity building, a series of teaching activities focusing on the four characteristics and the four abilities can effectively improve the capability of service-based education in basic teaching organizations in colleges and universities through targeted ability training.

Objective To observe the effect of Hp infection on the expression of Foxp3 and ROR in peripheral blood of patients with hepatitis C cirrhosis ,and to explore the effect of Hp infection on the regulation of Treg cells. Methods Totally 42 hepatitis C cirrhosis patients with Hp infection were chosen as observation group and 30 patients without as control group. Gene expressions were determined by RE-PCR and relative cell factors were detected by ELISA in two groups. Results Expression of FoxP3 and RORγt in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group;the expression level of IL-10,IL-6,IL-17,TGF-β1 and IFN-γin observation group was significantly higher than that in control group but IL-2 expression level was lower than that in control group and expression of IL-10 and TGF-βwas positively correlated with Foxp3 expression and was negatively correlated with IL-2. Conclusion Through inducing the high expression of Treg cells ,Hp may promote the expres-sion of IL-10,TGF-β1,IL-6 and IL-17,inhibit the expression of IL-2 and IFN-γ,imbalance of Treg/Th17 and Th1/Th2 balance in the body and promote the liver inflammation and fibrosis in patients with hepatitis C liver cirrhosis.

Objective:To compare the effects of the fracture line direction in the sagittal profile on the Gartland type Ⅲ supracondylar humerus fractures in children.Methods:A total of 153 cases of Gartland type Ⅲ supracondylar humerus fractures treated in the Department of Pediatric Orthopedics, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University (Qingdao) from January 2017 to April 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.They were categorized into the traditional oblique type (the fracture line went downward in the front and upward in the back), transverse type (the fracture line went horizontally) and reverse oblique type (the fracture line went upward in the front and downward in the back). Gender, age, injury side, cause of injury, ecchymosis before elbow, preoperative neurological symptoms, operation time, incision ratio, and Flynn scores of the elbow joint at the last follow-up were compared among the 3 groups.Results:Patients were followed up for (8.65±2.47) months (6-15 months). There were 60, 64 and 29 patients in the traditional oblique type, transverse type and reserve oblique type groups, respectively.There were no differences in the gender, injury side, and injury causes among the 3 groups (all P>0.05). The age of the traditional oblique type, transverse type and reverse oblique type group were (4.76±2.51) years, (4.71±2.09) years and (6.32±1.98) years, respectively, which was significant different among the 3 groups ( F=5.826, P<0.05). There were 10, 7 and 11 cases of preoperative elbow ecchymosis occurred in children of the traditional oblique type, transverse type and reverse oblique type groups, respectively, which was significant different ( χ2=9.902, P<0.05). No significant differences were found in preoperative neurological symptoms of the 3 groups ( P>0.05). The operative time for the traditional oblique type, transverse type and reverse oblique type group were (43.28±24.25) min, (40.95±27.41) min and (58.66±34.08) min, which was significant different ( F=4.337, P<0.05). The traditional oblique type and transverse type groups had 1 failure case of closed reduction, respectively, and the incision was performed during the operation.There were 4 cases in the reverse oblique type group who underwent the open reduction.The reduction rate was significantly different among 3 groups ( χ2=6.883, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the excellent to good rate of traditional oblique type (96.67%, 58/60 cases), transverse type(95.31%, 61/64 cases)and reserve oblique type (93.10%, 27/29 cases) among 3 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The reverse oblique Gartland type Ⅲ supracondylar humerus fractures are relatively rare in clinical practice, which involves more severe soft tissue damages and more obvious antecubital ecchymosis.The conventional reduction methods seem to be ineffectual for the reverse oblique supracondylar humerus fractures.

Objective:To compare reconstruction of acromioclavicular ligament versus internal fixation of acromioclavicular joint with clavicle hook plate in the treatment of Rockwood Ⅲ-Ⅴ acromioclavicular dislocation by reconstruction of coracoclavicular ligament with suture anchor.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 56 patients who had been treated for Rockwood Ⅲ-Ⅴ acromioclavicular dislocation from January 2015 to June 2019 at Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University (Qingdao). Of them, 26 were treated by reconstruction of coracoclavicular ligament with suture anchor plus reconstruction of acromioclavicular ligament (reconstruction group) and 30 by reconstruction of coracoclavicular ligament with suture anchor plus internal fixation of acromioclavicular joint with clavicle hook plate (plate group). The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, Constant-Murley score and Subjective Shoulder Rating System (SSRS) score at the last follow-up, and complications.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there were no significant differences between them in the baseline data before operation ( P>0.05). The reconstruction group was followed up for 6 to 15 months (average, 7.9 months) while the plate group for 7 to 18 months (average, 11.3 months). The average operation time was (79.9±12.6) min for the reconstruction group and (69.1±8.5) min for the plate group, showing a significant difference ( P<0.05). No significant difference was found between the 2 groups in the intraoperative blood loss [(68.5±19.1) mL versus (65.0±16.6) mL] ( P>0.05). The differences were statistically significant between the 2 groups in Constant-Murley score (87.9±3.4 for the reconstruction group versus 91.9±3.5 for the plate group) and in SSRS score (85.1±4.1 for the reconstruction group versus 88.6±3.0 for the plate group) ( P<0.05). All the wounds healed well in the reconstruction group except for one patient who reported numbness around the wound which disappeared spontaneously 3 months postoperation. In the plate group, incision infection occurred in 2 cases, the redness and swelling in one which responded to dressing change 3 weeks later and numbness around the incision in one which was recovered 5 months after operation. Conclusions:Both surgical procedures can achieve good to excellent clinical outcomes. Although reconstruction of both acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments takes more operation time, it may lead to better Constant-Murley and SSRS scores and fewer complications, and spare secondary operation.

Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide and is the most common cancer in males. Immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) that target programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) or programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) have achieved impressive efficacy in the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (Pardoll, 2012; Champiat et al., 2016; Gao et al., 2022). Although ICIs are usually well tolerated, they are often accompanied by immune-related adverse events (irAEs) (Doroshow et al., 2019). Non-specific activation of the immune system produces off-target immune and inflammatory responses that can affect virtually any organ or system (O'Kane et al., 2017; Puzanov et al., 2017). Compared with adverse events caused by chemotherapy, irAEs are often characterized by delayed onset and prolonged duration and can occur in any organ at any stage of treatment, including after cessation of treatment (Puzanov et al., 2017; von Itzstein et al., 2020). They range from rash, pneumonitis, hypothyroidism, enterocolitis, and autoimmune hepatitis to cardiovascular, hematological, renal, neurological, and ophthalmic irAEs (Nishino et al., 2016; Kumar et al., 2017; Song et al., 2020). Hence, we conducted a retrospective study to identify validated factors that could predict the magnitude of the risk of irAEs in patients receiving PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors; our approach was to analyze the correlation between the clinical characteristics of patients at the start of treatment and relevant indicators such as hematological indices and the risk of developing irAEs. Then, we developed an economical, practical, rapid, and simple model to assess the risk of irAEs in patients receiving ICI treatment, as early as possible.
