Objective:To investigate the value of serum soluble programmed cell death protein 1 (sPD-1), soluble B7 homolog 5 (sB7-H5) and trefoil factor 2 (TFF2) in evaluating the severity of disease and the risk of death in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP).Methods:A prospective research method was adopted. Three hundred and twenty-eight patients with AP (AP group) from February 2020 to February 2021 in Xiangyang Central Hospital were selected, including 124 patients with mild AP (MAP), 106 patients with moderately severe AP (MSAP) and 98 patients with severe AP (SAP). The serum levels of sPD-1, sB7-H5 and TFF2 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and compared with 60 healthy people (healthy control group). The patients with AP were followed up for 90 d, 284 patients survived and 44 died. The amylase, C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), modified CT severity index (MCTSI), sPD-1, sB7-H5 and TFF2 were compared between the two groups. Pearson method was used for correlation analysis. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of death in patients with AP. The efficacy of sPD-1, sB7-H5 and TFF2 in predicting the death in patients with AP was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve.Results:The sPD-1, sB7-H5 and TFF2 in AP group were significantly higher than those in healthy control group: (177.99 ± 17.81) ng/L vs. (50.20 ± 10.81) ng/L, (2.69 ± 0.72) μg/L vs. (1.40 ± 0.35) μg/L and (569.97 ± 38.91) μg/L vs. (94.59 ± 11.98) μg/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). The amylase, sPD-1, sB7-H5 and TFF2 in patients with MSAP and SAP were significantly higher than those in patients with MAP: (639.36 ± 91.67) and (835.24 ± 109.30) U/L vs. (575.24 ± 89.78) U/L, (180.13 ± 20.61) and (221.17 ± 15.70) ng/L vs. (142.03 ± 16.76) ng/L, (2.85 ± 0.74) and (3.34 ± 0.82) μg/L vs. (2.05 ± 0.52) μg/L, (539.66 ± 36.58) and (763.55 ± 40.08) μg/L vs. (442.90 ± 35.79) μg/L, the indexes in patients with SAP were significantly higher than those in patients with MSAP, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Pearson correlation analysis result showed that sPD-1 was positively correlated with sB7-H5 and TFF2 in patients with AP ( r = 0.552 and 0.641, P<0.01), and the sB7-H5 was positively correlated with TFF2 ( r = 0.610, P<0.01). The amylase, CRP, PCT, APACHE Ⅱ, SOFA, MCTSI, sPD-1, sB7-H5 and TFF2 in the dead patients were significantly higher than those in the living patients: (1 098 ± 105) U/L vs. (641 ± 93) U/L, (235.60 ± 40.17) mg/L vs. (118.04 ± 32.90) mg/L, (4.32 ± 0.52) μg/L vs. (3.14 ± 0.44) μg/L, (19.39 ± 3.14) scores vs. (11.18 ± 2.53) scores, (12.13 ± 2.78) scores vs. (7.40 ± 2.15) scores, (7.12 ± 1.73) scores vs. (4.31 ± 1.52) scores, (222.23 ± 22.30) ng/L vs. (171.14 ± 18.50) ng/L, (3.37 ± 0.89) μg/L vs. (2.59 ± 0.59) μg/L and (629.27 ± 39.63) μg/L vs. (560.78 ± 30.45) μg/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that CRP, PCT, APACHE Ⅱ, SOFA, sPD-1, sB7-H5 and TFF2 were independent risk factors death of in patients with AP ( OR = 1.339, 1.416, 1.285, 1.327, 1.092, 1.171 and 1.080; 95% CI 1.145 to 1.566, 1.146 to 1.751, 1.132 to 1.460, 1.150 to 1.531, 1.024 to 1.164, 1.072 to 1.280 and 1.031 to 1.131; P<0.01). The ROC curve analysis result showed that the area under the curve of sPD-1, sB7-H5 and TFF2 combined detection to predict the death in patients with AP was larger than that of sPD-1, sB7-H5, and TFF2 alone detection (0.870 vs. 0.771, 0.734 and 0.685). Conclusions:The increase of serum sPD-1, sB7-H5 and TFF2 levels in patients with AP is related to the severity of disease of patients with AP. The combined detection of the indexes can assist in evaluating the risk of death in patients with AP.

Objective:To carry out opening experiments on occupational health and occupational medicine for students majoring in preventive medicine, reform the experimental teaching mode, and explore the teaching methods to improve students' professional quality and scientific research ability.Methods:Opening experiments were carried out in the experimental course of occupational health and occupational medicine for students of preventive medicine major. A total of 147 students majoring in preventive medicine of Batch 2016 were classified as the control group, and the routine confirmatory experiment was carried out in the group; 176 students majoring in preventive medicine of Batch 2017 were classified as the experimental group, and this group carried out opening experiment. The evaluation was made from three aspects: comprehensive evaluation results, teacher self-evaluation and student satisfaction survey. SPSS 22.0 software was used for analysis and comparison by independent-samples t-test and Chi-square test. Results:The theoretical scores of the experimental group and the control group students were (84.37±10.45) vs. (81.44±9.22) ( t=2.68, P=0.008), and the experimental skills scores were (93.66±3.89) vs. (88.41±5.67) ( t=9.51, P<0.001). Questionnaire investigation showed that the students in the opening experimental group were more satisfied with the courses arrangement ( χ2=8.31, P=0.004), group cooperation ( χ2=21.10, P<0.001), assessment form ( χ2 =7.92, P=0.005), improvement of the writing ability of scientific research papers ( χ2 =17.56, P<0.001), improvement of practical skills ( χ2=11.70, P=0.001), logical thinking, language organization and expression ability ( χ2=10.33, P=0.001). They considered the opening experiment was helpful to cultivate innovative thinking and ability, but it had limited effect on the cultivation of employment advantages. And the students considered the opening experiments of setting up professional courses was sufficient and necessary. Conclusion:Carrying out opening experiments for students majoring in preventive medicine is helpful to improve students' professional quality and cultivate their practical ability and scientific research ability.
