Objective:To assess the prevalence of HIV primary drug resistance and drug resistance gene mutations among men who have sex with men (MSM).Methods:We searched eight electronic databases (CNKI,VIP,CBM,Wanfang Database,PubMed,Web of Knowledge,Springer,Medline) for the studies of HIV drug resistance relevant to MSM.Drug resistance and drug resistance mutations data were pooled and analyzed according to statistical test of homogeneity.Subgroups were further divided according to sample size,location,race,quality rating score,sampling time.Results:Forty-three studies were included in this Meta-analysis.The pooled rate of total to protease inhibitor (PI),nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor(NRTI) or non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) were 10.21％ (95％ CI 8.65％ to12.03％),2.98％ (95％ CI 2.25％ to 3.93％),4.05％ (95％ CI 3.14％ to 5.21％),4.42％ (95％ CI 3.31％ to 5.88％),respectively.The pooled rates of PI major mutation,PI secondary mutations,NRTI mutations and NNRTI mutations were 0.55％ (95％ CI 0.38％ to 0.80％),1.31％ (95％ CI 0.98％ to 1.75％),0.85％ (95％ CI 0.51％ to 1.40％),1.19％ (95％ CI 0.70％ to 2.01％),0.79％ (95％ CI 0.55％ to 1.13％),1.73％ (95％ CI 1.21％ to 2.46％),0.86％ (95％ CI 0.61％ to 1.21％),2.24％ (95％ CI 1.77％ to 2.83％),respectively.Sample size,region,and race were heterogeneous sources;the rate of resistance mutations and gene mutation rate were different in different subgroups.Conclusion:The prevalence of primary drug resistance among MSM was high in Americas and Europe,and it was gradually increased in Asia.We should pay attention to the high incidence of PI secondary mutations.

Objective To investigate whether cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2)expression are related to the clinicopathological features,and to microvessel density(MVD).Methods COX-2 expressions were detected in 45colorectal carcinoma samples by immunostaining.MVD was evaluated with the specific antibody CD105.Quantitationof COX-2 mRNA was performed by RT-PCR in 45 specimens of colorectal carcinoma.Results The expressions of COX-2 mRNA and protein were significant variation among lymphatic metastasis,high Dukes stages and grade of differation(P＜0.05);Increased value of MVD were significant variation among lymphatic metastasis,high Dukes stage and depth of tumor invasion(P＜0.05).Both the overexpression of COX-2 protein and mRNA was positively correlated with the value of MVD(P＜0.05).Conclusion COX-2 plays an important role in the development of colorectal carcinoma.COX-2 may up-regulate the value of MVD,which induces angiogenesis and accordingly contributes to metastasis.

Objective To explore the value of ECG score in predicting the danger level of acute pulmonary embolism (APE). Methods Clinical data of 108 patients with APE who were admitted to and treated in our hospital from January 2012 to January 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. According to patients' disease conditions, 41 patients were as-signed to low-risk group, 61 patients in medium-risk group, and 6 patients in high risk group. ECG was carried out for patients 24 hours after the admission. Relations between waves of ECG and risk stratification were studied. Relations of number of leads by ECG T wave with anteroposterior diameter of right ventricle, SPAP, PaCO2, pH value and PaO2 were analyzed. Results Commonly seen changes of ECG for patients with APE were as follows: Precordial T wave inversion was seen in 193 patients, among whom patients were V1, and 58 patients were V2, followed by 49 cases of V3 patients. Number of leads by T wave inversion was not correlated with arterial blood pH value, anteroposterior diameter of right ventricle, and PaCO2. Number of leads by T wave inversion was positively correlated with SPAP, and was negatively correlated with PaO2 in arterial blood gas analysis. Conclusion ECG and the danger level of patients with APE have good correlations, and ECG has favorable predicting values for patients with APE.

Sexual orientation is influenced by both environmental factors and biological factors. Family and twin studies have shown that genetic factors play an important role in the formation of male homosexuality. Genome-wide scan also revealed candidate chromosomal regions which may be associated with male homosexuality, but so far no clearly related genes have been found. This article reviews the progress of relevant studies and candidate genes which are related to male homosexuality.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is an important cause of blindness globally, and its prevalence is increasing. Early detection and intervention can help change the outcomes of the disease. The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) in recent years has led to new possibilities for the screening and diagnosis of DR. An AI-based diagnostic system for the detection of DR has significant advantages, such as high efficiency, high accuracy, and lower demand for human resources. At the same time, there are shortcomings, such as the lack of standards for development and evaluation and the limited scope of application. This article demonstrates the current applications of AI in the field of DR, existing problems, and possible future development directions.
