Objective To make objective criteria for evaluation of conjunctival impression cytology(CIC)in early screening of vitamin A deficiency(VAD)in children.Methods The status of vitamin A in children aged 3~7 years old was evaluated with CIC method.In order to justify the judgemental criterion of CIC,the changes in CIC and the levels of serum vitamin A were studied.Results Goblet cells and normal epithelial cells could be found in grade 0~1 of CIC;only normal epithelial cells without Goblet cells could be seen in grade 2 of CIC,and only abnormal epithelial cells were identified in grade 3~5 of CIC.Along with the increasing degree of abnormalify of CIC,the levels of serum vitamin A decreased accordingly(r=-0.824,P

Objective To study the changes of resistin and the relationship between resistin and other indexes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods Seventy patients with type 2 diabetics were chosen and divided into three groups according to weight index and 15 healthy persons were chosen as controls. ELISA was adopted to determine resistin concentration. Oxydase method was adopted to measure blood sugar. Radio immunoassay was used to measure insulin level. Results Resistin concentration of patient groups r(23.06±9.34)μg/L ] was significantly higher than that of control group [( 9. 89±4. 47) μg/L, P<0. 01 ]. Resistin was positively related to body mass index (r = 0.4 467) and fat distribution (r= 0. 3 314, P<0.01). Resistin was also positively correlated to the area under the curve of sugar tolerance (r=0. 7 063, P<0. 01), negatively related to the insulin resistance index (r=-0. 4 154, P<0.01), but not related to area under the curve of synchronous insulin release (P>0. 05). And a formula was obtainted : Resistin=- 15. 869 + 0. 339×GAUC+0.790×BMI. Conclusion The level of reslstin in type 2 diabetics is higher. And reslstin is related to other factors. This formula is of great significance for clinical study of diabetic's disor- ders.

Objective To research the reliability and validity of the N-QOL Chinese version system.Methods A total of 260 nocturia patients were surveyed by the Chinese version of N-QOL and the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of N-QOL were assessed.Results Cronbach's α of the total questionnaire and two dimensions were 0.899,0.672 and 0.799,respectively.The split-half reliability was 0.828 and re-test reliability was 0.796.The correlation coefficients of scores of the items with its subordinate dimensionality were 0.595~0.854,and those with the total scores were 0.578~0.754.Two common factors were found through exploratory factor analysis,which explained the percent of 57.20% rotation sums of squared loadings.Conclusions The reliability and validity of the Chinese version of N-QOL were good,so it could be used to evaluate the life quality of nocturia patients.

Objective To study the changes of resistin, blood fat and hepatic function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the content of resistin in peripheral blood. Radio immunoassay was used to determine the content of insulin . Oxydase or chemical method was used to determine blood sugar,and automatic analytical instrument was used to determine blood sugar, blood fat and hepatic function. Results Blood-fasting sugars in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (8.85?3.21 mmol/L) increased significantly (P0.05). Conclusion Disorders of internal environment exist in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Contents of resistin, ALB, and blood fat are higher in the patients than those in the controls.

AIM and METHODS: To detect the changes of amyloid protein (?-AP) and polypeptide growth factor levels and study their role in the possible pathogenesis of Alzheimers disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VD). We detected serum ?-AP, transforming growth factor- ?(TGF-?) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-Ⅱ) levels by radio immunoassay in 8 patients with AD,15 patients with VD and 63 patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease(ICVD) and 38 cases healthy volunteers. RESULTS: In AD and VD groups, serum ?-AP, TGF-? and IGF-Ⅱ were significantly higher than that in ICVD and control group; Serum ?- AP,TGF-? and IGF-Ⅱ contents in ICVD group were obviously higher than that in normal control, the highest increase occurred in sequel of cerebral infarction(SCI) and vertebrobasislar ischemia(VBI) groups. There are positive correlation among ?- AP, TGF-? and IGF-Ⅱ in AD and VD groups.CONCLUSION: ①?- AP is a risk factor in the pathogenesis of AD and VD. ② TGF- ? and IGF-Ⅱ play roles in the neurotoxin effect that lead to dementia. ③ ?-AP plays a important role in formation of senile plaque.

OBJECTIVE:
To diagnose a 46,XN,del(11)(q14q22) fetus by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT), karyotype analysis and whole genome sequencing (WGS).
METHODS:
Peripheral blood sample of the gravida was taken for NIPT screening. Blood samples of the gravida, her husband, and umbilical cord blood were also taken for chromosome karyotyping and whole genome sequencing (WGS).
RESULTS:
NIPT screening indicated the fetus has carried partial deletion of chromosome 11, while no chromosomal abnormality was found with the cord blood sample due to the low resolution of G-banding analysis. WGS analysis of the cord blood indicated 46,XN,del(11q14.3q22.1). seq[GRCh37/hg19] (90 623 404-97 469 319)×1, 6.85 Mb. The karyotype of the fetus was eventually determined as 46,XN,del(11)(q14q22). Karyotyping analysis suggested that the gravida and her husband were 46,XX,del(11)(q14q22)[8]/46,XX[92] and 46,XY, respectively. However, neither of them was found to harbor the del(11)(q14q22) by WGS.
CONCLUSION
The abnormal karyotype of the fetus has derived from its mother's low percentage mosaicism. Combined NIPT, karyotyping analysis and WGS can detect chromosomal disorders with accuracy.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of venetoclax-based combined regimen in treatment of adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).Methods:The data of 50 adult AML (non-acute promyelocytic leukemia) who received venetoclax-based combined regimen in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University, Dongguan People's Hospital, the First Hospital of Longyan City, Jieyang People's Hospital from December 2018 to May 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Different doses venetoclax combined with demethylation drugs or low-dose chemotherapy regimen were used to analyze the therapeutic efficacy. The related factors influencing efficacy were analyzed by using logistic regression.Results:The composite complete remission (CR) rate of 50 AML patients was 62.0% (31/50), the overall response rate (ORR) was 76.0% (38/50); 28 patients achieved effectiveness [CR and partial remission (PR)] after the first cycle and could achieve effectiveness by 3 courses of treatment at the latest. Among 50 patients, 28 cases were newly diagnosed AML, the composite CR rate was 60.8% (17/28), ORR was 78.6% (22/28); 22 cases were recurrent and relapsed, the composite CR rate was 63.6% (14/22), ORR was 72.7% (16/22); and there was no statistically significant difference of ORR between the both groups ( χ2 = 0.23, P = 0.743). Logistic regression multivariate analysis showed age was the only independent influencing factor for the treatment effectiveness ( OR = 8.451, 95% CI 1.306-54.697, P = 0.025). The median duration time of patients receiving venetoclax treatment regimen was 4.5 months (1.1-15.0 months); 16 cases who had treatment effectiveness finally relapsed, the median time of maintaining effectiveness was 5 months (1.1-11.0 months). Additionally, the common treatment-related adverse reactions included bone marrow suppression after treatment, followed by some gastrointestinal reactions like nausea, vomiting and stomachache. In addition, no patient stopped medication for more than 1 week due to bone marrow suppression related complications. Conclusion:Venetoclax-based combined regimen shows a good short-term efficacy in treatment of AML. It is also effective and tolerable for elderly patients receiving reduced dose therapy.
