In recent years,studies committed to the myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) pathogenesis suggest that potential somatic genetic alterations,and epigenetic events might contribute to MPN development,influence the MPN disease phenotype,progression,and promote transformation.The most relevant mutations identified so far can be broadly classified into two main groups.Mutations associated with dysregulated JAK-STATsignal transduction pathway,including mutations in JAK2,CALR,MPL,CBL,LNK,SOCS.Mutations in several epigenetic modifiers,including mutations in TET2,ASXL1,IDH1/2,DNMT3A,EZH2 and so on.In this paper,the abnormal clones and clonal evolution of MPN were reviewed.

BACKGROUND:Recent studies have found that femoral neck angleαin patient with femoral neck hernial fossa increased significantly. However, whether the femoral neck hernia fossa can be used as imaging diagnostic indicator for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome remains controversial. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the association between alpha angle and herniation pit in asymptomatic hip joints, influencing factors of the above indexes, and to provide evidence for the diagnosis of hip impingement syndrome. METHODS:Adults with asymptomatic hip joints from September 2013 to December 2015 were retrospectively studied. Alpha angles were measured on oblique axial MRI images. The incidence and size of herniation pit were determined by MRI. Size measures, prevalence, and statistical analyses were conducted regarding its association with age, gender, laterality (right or left hip). Intra-and inter-observer consistency was determined by intra-class correlation coefficient. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) 105 patients with asymptomatic hips were included, and 185 sides of hip MRI images were obtained. The range of age was 18-80 years old. The prevalence of herniation pit in asymptomatic hips was 21.6%. (2) The range of alpha angle was 27.6°–65.0°. Alpha angles of hip joints of 17 cases were ≥ 55°. (3) There was no association between alpha angle≥55° and the size of herniation pit (P>0.05). The prevalence of herniation pit was not correlated with age, gender and affected side (P=0.160, 0.157, 0.110). Inter-observer consistency of alpha angle was 0.523 between first measurements of first vs. second observer, respectively. Intra-observer consistency of alpha angle was 0.654, respectively. (4) There is no association between alpha angle ≥ 55 degrees and presence of herniation pit or demographic variables (age, gender and affected side). The presence of herniation pit and the increased alpha angle need to be interpreted with caution. Clinical symptoms and other examinations should be used in the diagnosis of hip impingement syndrome.

Objective Study the efficacy and safety of epristeride, a new uncompetitive 5?-reductase inhibitor, in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH). Methods A multicentral opened clinical trial was conducted. 2 006 BPH patients were enrolled in the trial, in which 5mg epristeride was orally administered twice a day. Results After 4 months therapy, IPSS score was averagely decreased 6.12(28.8%) ( P

[Objective]To investigate the methord of nursing care of patients with cervical fracture-dislocation and spinal cord injuries during the perioperative period.[Method]Fifty-six patients with cervical fracture-dislocation and spinal cord injuries experienced preoperative training,psychology nursing and posture exercise,and postoperative position nursing and founctional exercising.The improvement of spinal cord founction was observed.[Result]All patients were followed up from 6 to 31 months,with an average of 17.6 months.According to JOA scores,the preoperative scores was from 0 to 13,with an average of 7.76 points.The postoperative score was 6-17 with an average of 10.3.The relief rate was 68.5%.Satisfaction rate was 74.1%.[Conclusion]The perioperative nursing is important for preventing and lessening complications,achieving good operative effect and promoting rehabilitation.

Objective Establishing the scientific research competitiveness evaluation index system of Shanghai hospitals.Methods Delphi method and Analytic Hierarchy Process were applied.Results Thirty-four experts were invited to provide evaluation index and weighted scores.The positive coefficient from two rounds of expert's consultation were 88.24％ and 94％.The expert's opinion of authority coefficient of each indicator's was greater than 0.7.The degrees of coordinative consistency was high.Kendall concordance coefficient was increasing with the increasing of consulting times.After two rounds of Delphi expert consultation,2 level-one indictors,10 level-two indictors and 47 level-three indictors were confirmed.Conclusions After two rounds of Delphi expert consultation,using all objective indicators,an Index System for research competitiveness evaluation in the hospitals in Shanghai has been created and could be used with scientific,objectivity and feasibility.

Objective To investigate the influence of obesity on renal lesion in IgA nephropathy (IgAN) patients by analyzing the association between obesity and absolute renal risk factors (ARR).Method Clinical-pathological data of IgAN patients diagnosed by renal biopsy in General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University were collected retrospectively.According to the body mass index (BMI),patients were divided into non-obese group (BMI ＜ 28,N-OB group) and obese group (BMI≥28,OB group).Their clinical characteristics,pathological index and ARR scores were compared.The relationship of BMI and ARR was analyzed by ordinal logistic regression models.Results (1) A total of 674 IgAN patients with mean age of 35.5+ 11.3 years were enrolled,including 94 in OB group and 580 in N-OB group respectively.Compared with those in the N-OB group,the proportion of male,age,mean arterial pressure,blood uric acid,blood triglyceride,diabetes mellitus and hypertension increased in OB group (all P ＜ 0.01).Patients in OB group had lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and higher ARR score than those in N-OB group (all P ＜ 0.05).(2) More severe thickening renal small artery wall and hyaline degeneration were observed in the OB group than in the N-OB group (all P ＜ 0.01).There was no statistical difference between the two groups in Lee classification,Oxford classification,mesangial cell proliferation,glomerular sclerosis,crescent formation,renal tubular atrophy,interstitial inflammatory cell in filtration and endothelial cell proliferation.(3) After adjusting for age,sex,blood uric acid,serum albumin,eGFR,low density lipoprotein,glomerular sclerosis,interstitial inflammatory cell infiltration,renal tubular atrophy and vascular wall thickening,BMI was still an independent risk factors for ARR in IgAN patients (OR=1.09,95％ CI 1.03-1.14).Conclusions BMI is an independent risk factors for ARR in IgAN patients.Early prevention and control of obesity and its associated risk factors may improve outcomes of IgAN patients.
