Objective To investigate the incidence of follicular stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) gene C566T mutation in Chinese women with premature ovarian failure (POF) and to explore the etiologies of POF. Methods This case-control study was carried out between 73 Chinese women with idiopathic POF (POF group) and 35 controls (control group), including 25 normal females with a regular menstrual history and 10 normal post-menopause women. DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of patients and controls. The exon 7 of FSHR gene was amplified by PCR. PCR products were subsequently digested by the enzyme BsmI and then subjected to electrophoresis on agarose gels and stained with ethidium bromide to determine the C566T mutation. DNA samples of random sampling were further analysed by sequencing the PCR products to confirm the mutation. Results BsmI digestion resulting in two fragments of 51 and 27 base pairs was noted for all 73 POF patients and 35 controls. PCR sequencing confirmed that the 566 allele of FSHR gene is C, demonstrating normal FSHR allele. Conclusions No FSHR gene C566T mutation is present in POF patients and controls. FSHR C566T mutation may be rare in Chinese women with POF.

Objective To evaluate the effect of the clinical nursing path integrated with the holistic nursing on advanced schistosomiasis patients with ascites. Methods A total of 226 advanced schistosomiasis patients with ascites were randomly di?vided into a control group and an experimental group (113 cases each group). The subjects in the experimental group were nursed by the clinical nursing path integrated with the holistic nursing,while those in the control group were nursed only by the holistic nursing. Then the clinical relevant indexes of the two groups were observed,and the quality of life of the patients before and after hospital discharge was assessed. Results The improvement rate,satisfaction degree,and awareness rate of health knowledge of the patients in the experiment group were 93.8%,100%and 97.4%,respectively,which were significantly higher than those of the control group(all P<0.05). The mortality rate and the complication rate of the patients in the experimental group were 0 and 2.7%,respectively,which were significantly lower than those of the control group(both P<0.05). In addi?tion,the average hospitalization days and the hospitalization cost of the experiment group were(12.2 ± 0.7)d and(4 725.0 ± 310.1)Yuan respectively,which were less than those of the control group(both P<0.01). When 6 months after the discharge from hospital,the quality of life of the patients in the experimental group in various fields was significantly better than that of the control group(all P<0.05). Conclusions The clinical nursing pathway integrated with holistic nursing can effectively improve the improvement rate and decrease the mortality of the advanced schistosomiasis patients with ascites;meanwhile,it can short?en the hospitalization time and save the hospitalization cost. Therefore,this nursing model is suitable for popularization and ap?plication in the treatment and nursing work of the advanced schistosomiasis assistance.

Journal of Chinese Physician 2022;24(12):1837-1841,1846
Objective:To analyze the risk factors of postpartum type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in patients with family history of diabetes mellitus with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods:From January 2017 to January 2019, 275 patients with GDM and family history of diabetes were selected. According to the occurrence of postpartum T2DM, the patients were divided into postpartum normal group (207 cases) and postpartum disease group (68 cases). The clinical data of the two groups were compared, and the independent risk factors of postpartum T2DM were analyzed by logistic regression, and a line chart prediction model was constructed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration curve were used to evaluate the predictive ability of the model. X-tile software was used to obtain the integral truncation value of the line graph model, and survival curve was drawn and internal verification was carried out.Results:Of 275 GDM patients, 68 had T2DM after delivery, with a incidence rate of 24.73%. There were significant differences between the two groups in age, body mass index (BMI) before pregnancy, weight gain during pregnancy, fasting blood glucose during pregnancy and glycosylated hemoglobin during pregnancy (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in pregnancy outcome between the two groups ( P>0.05). Age≥30 years, high pre-pregnancy BMI, weight gain≥6 kg during pregnancy, fasting blood glucose>5.8 mmol/L during pregnancy, and glycosylated hemoglobin>5.2% during pregnancy were independent risk factors for postpartum T2DM in GDM patients with diabetes family history (all P<0.05). The nomogram model predicted that the C-index value of postpartum T2DM was 0.912 (95% CI: 0.854-0.960), and the area under the ROC curve was 0.799 (95% CI: 0.742-0.856), with good discrimination; The calibration curve indicated that the accuracy of the model was good. According to the integral cutoff value of the line chart model, the probability of postpartum T2DM in GDM patients with family history of diabetes was divided into three groups: low (≤67.24 points), medium (>67.24 points and ≤129.82 points) and high-risk groups. The incidence rate of postpartum T2DM were 13.71%, 29.29% and 59.62%, respectively, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Age≥30 years old, high pre-pregnancy BMI, pregnancy weight gain≥6 kg, pregnancy fasting blood glucose>5.8 mmol/L and pregnancy glycosylated hemoglobin>5.2% were independent risk factors for postpartum T2DM in GDM patients with family history of diabetes.
