OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between D2 dopamine receptor gene -141C Ins/Del polymorphism and heroin dependence in Chinese Han population. METHODS: Chinese and foreign databases were searched for relevant articles published from the establishment of database to March 2014. Case-control studies on D2 dopamine receptor gene -141C Ins/Del polymorphism with heroin dependence in Chinese Han population were gathered with Meta-analysis by Stata 12.0 software after data abstraction. RESULTS: Seven case-control studies on association between D2 dopamine receptor gene -141C Ins/ Del polymorphism and heroin dependence were included, which covered 3 211 heroin dependence patients and 1 979 controls. Meta-analysis results showed that the pooled odds ratio (OR), the 95% confidence interval (CI) and P value after combining genotypes were as follows: Ins/Ins vs Del/Del: OR=0.51, 95% CI: 0.27-0.96, P=0.017; Ins/Ins vs Ins/Del+Del/Del: OR=0.82, 95% CI: 0.72-0.94, P=0.448; Ins/Ins+ Ins/Del vs Del/Del: OR=0.53, 95% CI: 0.28-0.98, P=0.019; Ins/Del vs Del/Del: OR=0.59, 95% CI: 0.32-1.07, P=0.045; Ins vs Del: OR=0.79, 95% CI: 0.71-0.89, P=0.101). CONCLUSION D2 dopamine receptor gene -141C Ins/Del polymorphism is associated with heroin dependence in Chinese Han population, and Chinese Han population with Ins allele gene deletion are at lower risk of heroin dependence.

OBJECTIVETo compare the efficacy between laparoscopic and open surgery in the treatment of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor (gastric GIST), and to explore the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic resection for gastric GIST.

METHODSClinical data of 226 gastric GIST patients confirmed by pathology with maximal tumor diameter less than 10 cm undergoing operation in our department from January 2002 to December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 158 patients received laparoscopic surgery(laparoscopic group), and 68 open surgery (open group). Related indicators of clinical efficacy were compared between the two groups. Laparoscopic group patients were further divided into 4 groups according to chronological order, including 39 patients in group A, 39 in group B, 39 in group C and 41 in group D. Operating time was compared among 4 groups.

RESULTSCompared with the open group, laparoscopic group had shorter operation time [(138.8±69.2) min vs. (173.3±74.5) min, P=0.001], less intraoperative bleeding [30 ml vs. 125 ml, P=0.000], faster recovery to postoperative first flatus [(3.2±1.1) d vs. (3.8±1.1) d, P=0.000] and resumption of oral intake [(3.9±1.5) d vs. (4.7±1.5) d, P=0.000], and a shorter hospital stay [(8.1±2.3) d vs. (10.0±2.6) d, P=0.001]. The operation time of laparoscopic group A, B, C and D was (181.0±81.2) min, (124.7±57.8) min, (126.9±67.9) min and (123.4±51.8) min respectively, and the difference was statistically significant(F=7.188, P=0.001). Median follow-up time of 226 patients was 32 months(5 to 104 months). In laparoscopic group, 136 cases(86.1%) received follow-up, and the 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival were 98.7%, 90.7% and 72.8% respectively. In the open group, 59 cases (86.8%) received follow-up, and the 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival were 98.3%, 87.1% and 83.1%, respectively. The survival between two groups were not significantly different(P=0.164).

CONCLUSIONSLaparoscopic surgery removing gastric GIST with a maximal diameter of less than 10 cm is safe and feasible. The learning curve of laparoscopic gastric GIST surgery is about 40 cases.

Discipline construction is the core of hospital development. Under the initiative to build " first-class universities and disciplines" , in order to speed up the construction of first-class hospitals, a university-affiliated hospital carried out discipline construction management by optimizing top-level design, discipline differentiation development, evaluation index system construction and strengthening its application, and carrying out process management in the form of project system.In 2018, the hospital levelled its individual disciplines as leading ones, advantageous ones, backbone ones, backbone promising ones and potential ones, each granted with corresponding funding support. Medians of the disciplinary construction scoring of disciplines at various levels from 2015 to 2018 were used as the standard scoring in examinations in the next two years(2019 and 2020), guiding the disciplines to upgrade their design for discipline construction index system. The appraisal of discipline construction in 2019 and 2020 found 38 disciplines up to the standard scoring, including 16 twice higher than the scoring, while only 7 scored lower than the standard one. The hospital has made stage-based progress in discipline reputation, faculty, science research and social contribution, initially achieving effective guidance of disciplines of the hospital.
