This paper mainly discussed the present situation of the pension mode transformation from traditional family pension to social pension. The existing ethical issues in pension institution include: old filial piety thought deeply rooted;institutional care services cannot be carried out caused by unfair distribution balance; humanistic thought of human ethical care implementation does not do well; some agencies have occasional bad behavior. Therefore, this paper proposed some advices based bioethical perspective:for old people and their children, advo-cate the new filial piety;pension institutions not only improving the quality of the hardware but also should strength-en humanistic ethics concern;establish and perfect the laws and regulations, combining the rule of law with moral and ethical;the relevant government departments should insist on and strengthen the principle of fair justice.

Objective · To evaluate the surgical outcome of RPR composite technique for complex hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). Methods · From June 2009 to December 2015, 9 complex HOCM patients received RPR procedure. There were 6 males and 3 females with age from 22 to 63 years old and the average age of (43±19) years old. Transthorax echocardiography (TTE) showed systolic anterior motion (SAM) and at least moderate mitral valve regurgitation (MR) in all patients before operations. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) was used to evaluate the results of procedures during operation. All the patients had been followed up since one week after operation and examined by TTE. Results · All the patients were discharged without complications. Intraoperative TEE indicated that left ventricular outflow tract pressure gradient (LVOTPG) significantly decreased from (92±14) mmHg before operation to (9±3) mmHg after operation (P<0.01). SAM in all the patients disappeared. One week after operation, TTE demonstrated remarkable reduction in the thickness of ventricular septum, LVOTPG and MR than those before operation (P<0.01). Mean follow-up was 26 months. All the patients became asymptomatic. LVOTPG remained low and MR remained mild. There were no deaths, reoperations, or any other adverse consequences. Conclusion · RPR technique is an effective surgical method to relieve LVOTO and MR of complex HOCM to lead a better life.

Whether the localized flow acceleration occurs in the resting stenotic left anterior descending coronary artery was explored and its value for detection of coronary stenosis estimated.Blood flow in the left anterior descending coronary arteries in 45 patients was detected by transthoracic color Doppler echocardiograph and multipoint pulse Doppler spectrums were recorded in the same segment. The ratio of the maximal peak diastolic velocity to the minimal peak diastolic velocity was calculated. The ratio ≥1.5 was the cutoff value for the presence of localized acceleration flow.There were 23 patients with localized acceleration flow examined by echocardiography. Twenty of them were found to have luminal diameter stenosis (60 %- 98 %) in the left anterior descending coronary arteries by coronary angiography and 3 patients were normal. There were 22 patients without localized acceleration flow examined by echocardiography. Eighteen of them had no or <60% stenosis. Four patients had serious stenosis (≥95 %) or occluded segments in the left anterior descending coronary arteries on coronary angiography. The ratio of the maximal peak diastolic velocity to the minimal peak diastolic velocity was significantly higher in patients with left anterior descending coronary artery stenosis than that in those without stenosis (1.9±0.3 vs 1.3±0.2, P<0.01) and it correlated significantly with left anterior descending coronary artery stenosis (r=0.77, P<0.01). The specificity by using the ratio≥1.5 for stenosis detection was 85.7 % (18/21), and the sensitivity was 83.3 % (20/24). This study demonstrated that local blood flow velocity was increased in the resting stenotic left anterior descending coronary artery. Transthoracic color Doppler echocardiography is a reliable noninvasive method to detect localized acceleration flow in the left anterior descending coronary artery stenosis and it is useful in the noninvasive diagnosis of stenosis in the left anterior descending coronary artery.

T cells engineered with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) have been successfully applied to treat advanced refractory B cell malignancy.However,many challenges remain in extending its application toward the treatment of solid tumors.The immunosuppressive nature of tumor microenvironment is considered one of the key factors limiting CAR-T efficacy.One negative regulator of T cell activity is lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3).We successfully generated LAG-3 knockout T and CAR-T cells with high efficiency using CRISPR-Cas9 mediated gene editing and found that the viability and immune phenotype were not dramatically changed during in vitro culture.LAG-3 knockout CAR-T cells displayed robust antigen-specific antitumor activity in cell culture and in murine xenograft model,which is comparable to standard CAR-T cells.Our study demonstrates an efficient approach to silence immune checkpoint in CAR-T cells via gene editing.

Objective:To construct a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) assessment test (CAT) score prediction model based on a deep network fused with air data, and to explore its significance.Methods:From February 2015 to December 2017, the outdoor environmental monitoring air data near the residential area of the patients with COPD from the Respiratory Outpatient Clinics of Peking University Third Hospital, Peking University People′s Hospital and Beijing Jishuitan Hospital were collected and the daily air pollution exposure of patients was calculated. The daily CAT scores were recorded continuously. The CAT score of the patients in the next week was predicted by fusing the time series algorithm and neural network to establish a model, and the prediction accuracy of the model was compared with that of the long short-term memory model (LSTM), the LSTM-attention model and the autoregressive integrated moving average model (ARIMA).Results:A total of 47 patients with COPD were enrolled and followed up for an average of 381.60 days. The LSTM-convolutional neural networks (CNN)-autoregression (AR) model was constructed by using the collected air data and CAT score, and the root mean square error of the model was 0.85, and the mean absolute error was 0.71. Compared with LSTM, LSTM-attention and ARIMA, the average prediction accuracy was improved by 21.69%.Conclusion:Based on the air data in the environment of COPD patients, the fusion deep network model can predict the CAT score of COPD patients more accurately.

Objective:To analyze the clinical phenotypes and pathogenic gene of a Han Chinese family with enhanced S-cone syndrome (ESCS).Methods:The method of pedigree investigation was adopted.A suspected ESCS Han Chinese family including 8 members of 3 generations was recruited in Henan Eye Hospital from June to September 2021.There was one patient in the family.A thorough ophthalmic examination of the proband was carried out to evaluate the phenotypes, including visual acuity, degree of strabismus, anterior segment and fundus, autofluorescence imaging, fluorescein fundus angiography, full-field electroretinogram (ERG), multifocal ERG, optical coherence tomography.DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples from the proband and family members.The pathogenic gene and variation were screened by whole exome sequencing (WES).The variation and co-segregation were verified by Sanger sequencing.The deleteriousness of the variation was analyzed by SIFT, Polyphen2 and MutationTaster.The pathogenicity of the variation was evaluated in accordance with the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) Standards and Guidelines.The analysis of amino acid sequence conservation was performed by SIFT.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Henan Eye Hospital (No.HNEECKY-2017[6]).Written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results:This pedigree was consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance.The proband had clinical features such as night blindness, hyperopia, accommodative esotropia, peripheral retinal pigmentation, retinoschisis, and photopic ERG responses dominated by large-amplitude waves.Variations including a compound heterozygous variation, c.671C>T: p.S224L on exon 5 and c. 955G>A: p.E319K on exon 6 of NR2E3 were identified by WES.The variations were confirmed to be consistent with co-segregation.The both loci were missense variations, the variation frequency of which was 0 in the East Asian population via the gnomAD database.The variations were predicted to be deleterious by SIFT, Polyphen2 and MutationTaster.The c.671C>T variation was recorded with unknown significance in ClinVar database, and the c.955G>A variation was an unreported new locus.According to the ACMG Standards and Guidelines, the both variations were labeled as with uncertain clinical significance, and the corresponding amino acid sequences were highly conservative across multiple species. Conclusions:This family has the clinical characteristics of ESCS and meets the genetic diagnosis criteria.Two novel variations in NR2E3 gene, c.671C>T: p.S224L and 955G>A: p.E319K, are found.

The identification of tumor-related microRNAs(miRNAs)exhibits excellent promise for the early diag-nosis of cancer and other bioanalytical applications.Therefore,we developed a sensitive and efficient biosensor using polyadenine(polyA)-mediated fluorescent spherical nucleic acid(FSNA)for miRNA analysis based on strand displacement reactions on gold nanoparticle(AuNP)surfaces and electrokinetic signal amplification(ESA)on a microfluidic chip.In this FSNA,polyA-DNA biosensor was anchored on AuNP surfaces via intrinsic affinity between adenine and Au.The upright conformational polyA-DNA recognition block hybridized with 6-carboxyfluorescein-labeled reporter-DNA,resulting in fluores-cence quenching of FSNA probes induced by AuNP-based resonance energy transfer.Reporter DNA was replaced in the presence of target miRNA,leading to the recovery of reporter-DNA fluorescence.Sub-sequently,reporter-DNAs were accumulated and detected in the front of with Nafion membrane in the microchannel by ESA.Our method showed high selectivity and sensitivity with a limit of detection of 1.3 pM.This method could also be used to detect miRNA-21 in human serum and urine samples,with re-coveries of 104.0%-113.3%and 104.9%-108.0%,respectively.Furthermore,we constructed a chip with three parallel channels for the simultaneous detection of multiple tumor-related miRNAs(miRNA-21,miRNA-141,and miRNA-375),which increased the detection efficiency.Our universal method can be applied to other DNA/RNA analyses by altering recognition sequences.
