Objective To investigate the variation of cytokines IL-4, IL-1? and TNF-? before and after the onset of pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) and to discuss the role of cytokine in the pathogenesis of PIH. Method A prospective cohort study of 550 pregnant women were followed. Plasma drawn from 25 women who developed moderate and severe PIH and 30 controls at 12~16 and 32~36 gestational weeks were analyzed. The concentrations of IL-4, IL-1? and TNF-? were analyzed using ELISA method. Results (1)In the second trimester, the plasma level of TNF-? in PIH group was significantly higher than control group(27.66 ng/L vs 17.80 ng/L, P

OBJECTIVE To investigate the drug resistance of Escherichia coli in biliary tract infection and genotype of ESBLs.METHODS Antimicrobial susceptibility test was performed using Kirby-Bauer method.The genotypes of ESBLs were detected by PCR.RESULTS The detection rate of ESBLs producing bacteria was 32.4%(23 strains),and the drug-sensitivity test indicated that E.coli was sensitive to imipenem,meropenem and cefoperazone/subactam,but these ESBLs producing strains were resistant to other antimicrobial agents.ESBLs were identified as TEM type in 16 strains,SHV type in 4 strains,CTX-M type in 12 strains and OXA type in 5 strains.CONCLUSIONS ESBLs-producing E.coli in biliary tract infections show strous resistance.TEM and CTX-M are the most common ESBLs genotypes.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the resistance feature and the distribution of Enterococcus species isolated from bile specimens.METHODS Totally 715 samples of bile in intra-operation were cultured,and the drug resistances were tested.RESULTS From them 511 strains in 469 cases were detected out(65.6%),among whith 156 were Enterococcus strains and 159 were strains of Escherichia coli.The mixed infection with two kinds of germs was found in 35 cases.The results of drug susceptibility showed the resistant rates of Enterococcus faecalis to penicillin and high concentration gentamicin were lower than those of E.faecium.None of E.faecalis,and E.faecium resisted to vancomycin.CONCLUSIONS The detective rate of the Enterococcus is high in bile samples.The results reveal a different resistance to common antibiotics,but a high sensistivity to vancomycin and teicoplanin.The result of antibiotic susceptibility testing guides rational use of antibacterial agents.

Objective:To explore the application method and effect of online teaching of pediatrics in undergraduate clinical medicine.Methods:From March to August, 2020, two classes of pediatrics were selected as research objects: 67 students from Batch 2016 "5+3" clinical medicine class were taught by providing recorded teaching resources and online communication and answering questions (hereinafter referred to as "recorded courses"); 39 students from Batch 2015 "5+3" clinical medicine class were taught by live courses and online communication and answering questions (hereinafter referred to as "live courses"). Through the questionnaire survey on the two groups of students, the effect of the two online teaching methods were compared and the medical students' views and suggestions on them were collected. SPSS 26.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results:Most of the students in the two groups (98.1%) agreed with the effect of the online teaching of pediatrics and thought it could meet their learning needs. There was no significant difference in the online teaching effect between recorded courses group and live courses group ( P > 0.05). However, they had a poor recognition with the implementation of complete online teaching in the future, while they preferred the combination of online teaching with practical exercises in offline hospitals. Conclusion:Online teaching of pediatrics has been recognized by medical students. The two online teaching methods have their own advantages: recorded courses are more planned and the content is more rigorous; live courses are more interactive and flexible. However, considering that medicine is a highly practical subject, it still needs to be supplemented by offline practice while giving full play to the advantages of online teaching.

OBJECTIVETo explore the relationship between abnormal expressions of positive cell cycle control factors and thyroid carcinoma occurrence and progression, and assess the value of these factors in evaluating tumor cell proliferation activity and the prognosis of the patients.
METHODSImmunohistochemical SP method was used to detect the expressions of MCM7, CDK2 and Ki-67 proteins in 50 cases of thyroid carcinoma, 30 cases of thyroid adenoma, 30 cases of nodular goiter and 20 cases of normal thyroid gland tissues.
RESULTSThe positive rates of MCM7, CDK2 and Ki-67 expressions in thyroid carcinoma were 100% (50/50), 80.00% (40/50) and 84.00% (42/50), significantly higher than the rates in thyroid adenoma, nodular goiter and normal thyroid tissue (P<0.01). In thyroid carcinoma tissues, positive correlations were observed between the expressions of MCM7 and CDK2 proteins (r=0.637, P<0.01), MCM7 and Ki-67 proteins (r=0.633, P<0.01), and CDK2 and Ki-67 proteins (r=0.862, P<0.01).
CONCLUSIONThe high expressions of MCM7, CDK2 and Ki-67 protein may contribute to the development of thyroid carcinoma, and their combined examination may serve as useful index for early diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of thyroid carcinoma. MCM7 is superior to Ki-67 in the evaluation of the thyroid tumor cell proliferation activity.

OBJECTIVETo establish the EST-SSR marker system for Cordyceps by using ESTs of C. bassiana and C. militaris.
METHODThe ESTs of Cordyceps were downloaded from the public database of NCBI, and the redundant ESTs with low quality were removed. The EST-SSR primers were designed by Sequece Seiner 1. 2. And the primers were screened through PAGE-Electrophoresis.
RESULTThe 4 556 non-redundant ESTs which from C. bassiana with total length of 2 953 173 bp were selected. 718 EST-SSRs distributed in 616 ESTs were totally screened out, accounting for 15.8% of the non-redundant ESTs. It was discovered that the average distance of EST-SSSR was 1/4 096 bp in EST-SSRs distribution of C. bassiana. Trinucleotide repeats were the most abundant types with 419 repeated sequences. Regarding to C. militaris, totally 1 363 non-redundant ESTs were acquired, from which 1 117 EST-SSRs were screened, and rate of SSR sites in ESTs was 81.95%. The leading motif of SSR was nucleotide A. The 50 pairs of EST-SSR primers were designed according to the ESTs of C. bassiana, and preliminary test showed the 34 pairs of primers amplified clear fragments,accounting for 68% of all primers. Furthermore, the 39 of the 40 pairs of primers from the ESTs of C. militaris were found to be amplified as the clear fragments, accounting for 97.5%. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that different anamorph of Cordyceps spieces were divided into four branches.
CONCLUSIONThe EST-SSR of Cordyceps had comparably higher utility value. The EST-SSR markers developed from ESTs of C. bassiana and C. militaris had well transferability in Cordyceps. And it was suggested that the EST-SSR markers should be an easy and effective way to assay molecular genetic structure of Cordyceps.
