Clinical surgical teaching is an important course of undergraduate teaching.Aiming at the problem of disconnection between operation and case in traditional video teaching and observing teaching in operation room,a new model of live surgery teaching based on case teaching was launched:intraoperative diagnosis and preoperative medical history collection were combined;intraoperative surgical anatomy and similar comparative study;teaching surgery were combined with pathology and postoperative adjuvant therapy.Through the questionnaire it was found that all of the students were satisfied with live surgery teaching,96.5％ of the students believed the model would contribute to their understanding of textbook knowledge and memory,and 94.8％ of the students thought the model could improve their interest in clinical learning.

MicroRNAs are endogenously expressed non-coding RNAs, which are composed of approximately 18 nucleotides to 25 nucleotides. Mature microRNAs regulate gene expression by base pairing with the 3'-untranslated region of target mRNAs. These mature microRNAs can degrade target mRNAs or inhibit translation. This process is a type of post-transcriptional regulation of gene ex-pression. Studies have shown that microRNAs are important in physiological and pathological processes, such as cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell death. This article provides an overview of the function of microRNAs in the regulation of macrophages.

Objective To explore the clinical outcome of individuals with Clinical High Risk (CHR) for psychosis and its relationship with Theory of Mind (ToM) function.Methods The Structured Interview for Prodromal Symptoms/Scale of Prodromal Syndromes (SIPS/SOPS) was applied to assess prodromal psychosis.The Reading the mind in the Eyes and faux pas Task were conducted to assess the function of Theory of Mind among the individuals of clinical high risk of psychosis.All participants had completed the 2-year follow-up.Conversion was determined using the criteria of presence of psychotic symptoms (POPS).According to the outcome,CHR individuals were divided into conversion group (n=20) and no-conversion group (n=50).The baseline clinical symptom characteristics and Theory of Mind were compared between groups.Results There was no significant difference in clinical symptom characteristics among individuals with CHR (P＞0.05).In the faux pas text,there were significant differences in Faux Pas Detection (P=0.01),Faux Pas Understanding (P=0.01) and Faux Pas Total (P=0.02) but not in control stories and the Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test between convertors and non-convertors (P＞0.05).Conclusion The ToM disability in clinical high risk population increases risk for conversion to psychosis.

Aim To investigate the effect of ASX (trans-astaxanthin)on the expressions of NF-κB p65 , iNOS and TNF-αin the hippocampus and the prefron-tal cortex of chronic alcohol mice.Methods 40 mice were randomly divided into control group,7 d,14 d, 21 d,28 d alcohol-treated group,the mice were given alcohol preference testing on day of 6,13,20,27. Mice were subjected to alcohol withdrawal for one day after testing.In order to determine the exact time point of cognitive memory impairment in mice after alcohol consumption,they were given morris water maze test after alcohol preference testing. The other 40 mice were randomly divided into control group, alcohol group and ASX group (20,40,80 mg·kg-1 ).After chronic ASX administration, mice were given one probe trial of 60 s in which the platform was removed from the pool to evaluate escape latency,the number of times the animal crossed the previous location of the platform,time spent in the target quadrant,and swim-ming speed.The expressions of NF-κB p65 ,iNOS and TNF-αwere detected by western blotting after behav-ioral testing.Results The mice showed an obvious al-cohol-related phenomenon on 2 1 and 28 days after al-cohol treatment,and escape latency significantly in-creased,entries in target quadrant and duration in tar-get quadrant significantly decreased with increasing drinking days and withdrawal times.The results also suggested that 2 1 days chronic ASX treatment reversed this learning deficit.Moreover,the expression of NF-κB p65 ,iNOS and TNF-αin the hippocampus were significantly increased after 2 1 d alcohol treatment (P<0.001),and pretreatment with ASX (40,80 mg· kg-1 ) could obviously inhibit these changes (P <0.001);Parallel to these changes in the hippocam-pus,the level of NF-κB p65 ,iNOS and TNF-αwere also increased in the prefrontal cortex (P<0.001 ), however,only ASX (80 mg · kg-1 ) administration could inhibit the increase (P<0.05 ).Conclusion These results indicate that ASX pretreatment can pro-tect against alcohol-induced memory impairment via the inhibition of NF- κB p65 ,iNOS and TNF-αexpres-sions in hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.

AIM:To investigate the effect of phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor rolipram on the levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), protein kinase A (PKA), cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB), phosphorylated CREB (p-CREB) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of alcoholism model mice.METHODS:The mice (n=60) were randomly divided into control group , con-trol+rolipram group, alcoholism model group, and alcohol +rolipram (0.1, 0.5 and 1 mg/kg) groups.The mice were given alcohol preference test on days 6, 13, 20 and 27.After the test, the mice received withdrawal of alcohol for 1 d.On day 28, the mice were given behavior test of depression , and after the test, the mice were sacrificed.The cAMP levels in the hippocampus and PFC were detected by ELISA , and the protein levels of PKA , CREB, p-CREB and BDNF were detec-ted by Western blot.RESULTS:The mice showed an obvious drinking phenomenon (P<0.01), and the immobility time of forced swimming test and tail suspension test was significantly increased (P<0.01), with increasing drinking days and withdrawal times .However , chronic treatment with rolipram for 28 d reversed this phenomenon .Moreover , the cAMP lev-els in the hippocampus and PFC were significantly decreased after 28 d alcohol treatment ( P<0.01 ) , and pretreatment with rolipram (1 mg/kg) obviously reversed this decrease (P<0.01).Parallel to these changes of cAMP , the protein lev-els of PKA, p-CREB and BDNF were also decreased in the hippocampus and PFC (P<0.01), and 28 d rolipram adminis-tration inhibited the decreased cAMP , PKA, p-CREB and BDNF levels in the hippocampus .Moreover, 28 d rolipram ad-ministration also reversed decreased cAMP , PKA and p-CREB in the PFC.CONCLUSION:Rolipram treatment protects against alcohol-induced depression-like behaviors , and also reduces alcohol drinking .These effects may be related to PDE4-cAMP-PKA-CREB-BDNF pathway .

Objective To measure the expressions of HSP10 and 60 in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and solar keratosis (AK) tissue. Methods Lesion samples were resected from patients with SCC (n = 50), BCC (n = 50) and AK (n = 50), and control samples were obtained from the normal skin adjacent to the operation sites of 14 of the 50 patients with SCC, BCC and AK. Immunohistochemical Envision two step method was used to detect the expression of HSP60 and 10 in the tissue samples.Results The expression of HSP10 was significantly higher in BCC tissue samples (Z = 3.24, P ＜ 0.001 ), but not in AK (Z= 0.74, P＞ 0.05) or SCC (Z= 0.52, P＞ 0.05) tissue samples than in the normal control tissue samples. Statistical significance was observed in the expression of HSP10 between AK and SCC and between AK and BCC tissue samples (both P ＜ 0.05), but not between SCC and BCC tissue samples (P ＞ 0.05 ). Elevated expression of HSP60 was found in AK, BCC and SCC tissue samples compared with the control samples (Z =-2.90, -2.15, -2.78,P ＜ 0.01, 0.05 and 0.01, respectively). Furthermore, the expression of HSP60 in SCC tissue samples was higher than that in BCC tissue samples (P ＜ 0.05 ) but similar to that in AK tissue samples. Conclusions There is likely to be a correlation between the high expression of HSP60 and biological behavior of SCC, and between the elevated HSP60 and HSP10 expressions and BCC initiation and development.
