Objective To study the association of peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PADI4) (padi4_94 and padi4_104) genetic single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility in Han population of Hebei province. Methods This hospital-based case-control study included 115 RA patients and 106 healthy controls. All the individuals were recruited from Han Hebei residents and were randomly selected. The genotype and allele frequencies of PADI4 gene polymorphisms (padi4_94 and padi4_104) were analyzed by PCR-DNA sequencing method. Results The distribution of padi4_94 and padi4_104 genotypes between the two groups was not significantly deviated from that expected by Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P>0.05). The combined effect of padi4_94 and padi4_104 SNPs was analyzed and three haplotypos (AA, AG and GG) were found but without GA haplotype. The genotype and allele distribution of padi4_94 and padi4_104 in the patients with RA was not significantly different from that in healthy controls,and the analysis of haplotypes revealed that no haplotypes were risk factors for RA. Conclusion In Han population of Hebei province, the SNPs of PADI4 (padi4_94 or/and padi4_104) is no associated with RA susceptibility. Therefore, it should not be regarded as a genetic risk factor for RA.

Objective To observe the effect of shock lymph drainage on multiple organ injury of rats with traumatic hemorrhagic shock (THS) and discuss the relating mechanism. Methods Male Wistar rats were divided into control group, lymph drainage group and lymph return group. The THS model was established in lymph drainage group and lymph return group, when the shock mesenteric lymph was drained in lymph drainage group. The change of the mean arterial pressure ( MAP), the biochemical indices of liver, kidney, myocardium and acid-base, the morphology, ATP contents and ATPase activities of lung, kidney, liver and myocardium were observed. Results The MAP at multiple time points after 80 minutes of infusion, the ATP contents and ATPase activities of multiple organs in lymph drainage group were higher than those in lymph return group. Multiple biochemical indices in lymph drainage group were superior to those in lymph return group, with statistical difference. The inflammation, congestion, degeneration and necrosis were found in organs of lymph return group, but only mild lesions could be seen in lymph drainage group. Conclusions The shock lymph drainage can alleviate multiple organ injury of THS rats, mechanism of which is correlated with improvement of the energy metabolism and maintenance of MAP and acid-base status.

Hepatic alveolar echinococcosis is a kind of zoonosis with poor prognosis.At present,the diagnosis and treatment are mainly based on ultrasound,CT diagnosis,MRI and other classical imaging by detecting the terminal effects of the changes on the cell molecules of the disease itself,the organ anatomy changes.However,it is found that the above imaging techniques have limitations in the diagnosis and treatment.For example,the infiltration zone of the lesion is not clear and the degree of biological activity can not be determined.This leads to a higher recurrence rate in the late stage of clinical treatment.In recent years,the molecular imaging shows the abnormal cell and molecular level in the disease process has been developed rapidly.This has led to several diagnosis and treatment problems related to liver vesicular disease.This paper mainly reviews the research results of the disease in the field of molecular imaging and the development direction of this field in the future,to provide guidance for future clinical and scientific research.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of conventional Western medicine alone and acupuncture combined with acupoint application in treating intestinal dysfunction secondary to mechanical ventilation in elderly patients with emergency sepsis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 111 elderly patients with mechanical ventilation for sepsis admitted to the emergency department of Dongzhimen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from January 2019 to June 2021. They were divided into two groups according to the time of admission: Western medicine treatment group alone (patients from January 2019 to December 2019, n=47) and acupuncture combined with acupoint application group (patients from January 2020 to June 2021, n=64). Acupuncture combined with acupoint application group was treated with acupuncture combined with acupoint application on the basis of conventional Western medicine. The intestinal dysfunction score, abdominal circumference and mortality after 4 weeks were compared between the two groups. Results:The abdominal circumference and intestinal dysfunction score in acupuncture combined with acupoint application group were significantly lower than those before treatment [(100.56±9.34)cm vs (106.25±9.74)cm; (0.92±0.72)point vs (2.31±0.69)point, all P< 0.05], while there was no significant difference in the above indexes before and after treatment in the Western medicine treatment group (all P>0.05). The abdominal circumference, intestinal dysfunction score and mortality after 4 weeks in the acupuncture combined with acupoint application group were significantly lower than those in the Western medicine treatment group [(100.56±9.34)cm vs (108.09±10.52)cm; (0.92±0.72)point vs (2.43±0.62)point; (29.7%, 19/64) vs (48.9%, 23/47), all P<0.05]. Conclusions:The curative effect of acupuncture combined with acupoint application in the treatment of intestinal dysfunction secondary to mechanical ventilation in elderly patients with sepsis in emergency is better than that of routine treatment of Western medicine alone. The gastrointestinal function and prognosis of patients have been significantly improved, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To apply self-directed learning-oriented multi-channel teaching to clinical digestive system integration course and explore its teaching effect.Methods:Seventy undergraduates of Batch 2015 majoring in clinical medicine in a medical college of Shandong Province were selected as subjects. In the clinical digestive system integration course, we designed and implemented multi-channel teaching methods including problem-based learning (PBL), integrated teaching of theory and practice, standardized patient teaching, group focus teaching and moral education. The scores of students' practice examination under the two teaching methods were compared, and the self-assessment of students' autonomous learning ability before and after the intervention was compared. SPSS 20.0 was used for t test. Results:The average total score of practical assessment in the intervention group was (86.10±6.01), which was higher than that (81.84±7.08) of the Batch 2014 students ( P<0.05). The total score of students' self-assessment of autonomous learning ability was (145.41±9.42) before the intervention. By comparison, the total score was (152.94±10.18) after the intervention. Except for the dimension of "self-innovation", the scores of self-directed learning ability in general and other dimensions were significantly different before and after the intervention ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Self-directed learning-oriented multi-channel teaching is a suitable teaching method for the integration curriculum of clinical digestive system.
