Objective To explore the practical method and teaching effect of problem-based learning (PBL) pattern in teaching of gastrointestinal disease for seven-year-program students during their internal medical probation.Methods The traditional pattern (gastrointestinal diseases) and PBL pattern (hepatobiliary diseases) were applied in these students to assess the teaching effects by exam scores and questionnaire.Results ① There was no significant difference between traditional training and PBL by exam scores (P＞0.05).② The PBL approach was widely accepted by students,which could contribute to the improvement of their learning motivation.It developed skills,including self-directed learning,summarizing,and clinical thinking capability and so on.Conclusion The PBL approach is a practical learning strategy that can improve the teaching effect; therefore it should be wildly practiced in future works.

Background and purpose:Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) is playing an increasingly important role in the diagnosis, therapy and follow-up of lymphoma patients. This study aimed to explore clinical and pathological features and bone marrow infiltration status in lymphoma patients with diffused high bone marrow glucose uptake on18F-FDG PET/CT.Methods:It was a retrospective study. Bone marrow infiltration status, pathological and clinical data from 62 cases of pathologically diagnosed lymphoma and diffused high bone marrow glucose uptake were analyzed.Results:Distribution of histopathological subtype in those cases was in accordance with that in previously reported Chinese lymphoma patients. Significant difference was demonstrated in standard uptake value (SUV) between pa-tients with aggressive and indolent histopathological subtypes (8.43vs 5.38,P=0.048), patients with and without B symp-toms (8.30vs 5.72,P=0.033), and patients with and without bone marrow infiltration (8.78vs 6.96,P=0.020). 32 patients were diagnosed as “bone marrow infiltration” by bone marrow biopsy. There was significant difference in histopathologi-cal subtype distribution between patients with and without bone marrow infiltration (P=0.001). In patients with bone marrow infiltration, there were higher proportions of mantle cell lymphoma, nodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma, Burkitt’s lym-phoma and anaplastic large cell lymphoma. In contrast, patients without bone marrow infiltration suffered more from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, peripheral T cell lymphoma, enteropathic T cell lymphoma and extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (nasal type). False positive results in bone marrow glucose uptake may be caused by fever or anemia.Conclusion:Diffused high bone marrow glucose uptake on18F-FDG PET/CT should be evaluated in combination with the uptake values, clinical features and histological subtypes, to minimize the misdiagnosis and to better guide staging and therapy of lymphoma.

Objective To detect the expression level of aquaporin 8 (AQP8) in patients with functional constipation(FC) or constipated irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-C),and the correlation between the expression of AQP8 and clinical features.Methods From March to December 2014,a total of 16 patients with IBS-C and 19 patients with FC met Rome Ⅲ criteria were collected,and nine healthy individuals were assigned to control group at the same period.The ascending and decending colonic tissues mucosa of FC,IBS-C and control group were taken under endoscope.The expression of AQP8 at mRNA and protein level was detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry (IHC).The differences in AQP8 mRNA expression and AQP8 relative area were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test among groups,and Pearson correlation coefficient was performed for correlation analysis between the expression and clinical features.Results The relative expressions of AQP8 mRNA of ascending colon and descending colon of FC patients (1.38,0.61 to 4.09;2.65,0.82 to 7.52) and IBS-C patients (2.23,0.82 to 4.67;1.35,0.51 to 2.03) were higher than those of control group (0.56,0.19 to 0.97;0.38,0.21 to 1.19),and the differences were statistically significant (ZFc =-2.435,-3.149,ZIBS-C =-2.690,-2.152;all P＜0.05).AQP8 mRNA expression of descending colon in patients with FC was higher than that of patients with IBS-C,and the difference was statistically significant (Z =-2.003,P =0.045).The expression of AQP8 in patients with FC and IBS-C was positively correlated with disease course (ascending colon r=0.57 and 0.53;descending colon r=0.49 and 0.54,all P＜0.05),and was negatively correlated with frequency of defecation (ascending colon r=-0.82 and-0.61;descending colon r=-0.49 and-0.53,all P＜0.05).There was no correlation between the expression of AQP8 and age,gender,onset age,presence of abdominal symptoms of the patients (all P＞ 0.05).Most of AQP8 of FC group was expressed in cytoplasm of colonic mucosa epithelial cells,while that of IBS-C group and control group was mostly expressed at apical membrane and basal membrane of epithelial cells.The results of semi-quantification demonstrated that AQP8 relative area of descending colon of FC and IBS-C group increased compared with that of control group (3.42％ (1.24％ to 5.61％),2.45％(1.72％ to 4.27％) vs 1.18％ (0.35％ to 2.81％);Z=-2.534,-2.151,both P＜0.05).Meanwhile,AQP8 relative area of ascending colon of FC group increased compared with that of control group (2.46％(1.48％ to 4.18％) vs 1.14％(1.29％ to 2.15％) Z=-2.041,P＜0.05).Conclusion There are differences in AQP8 expression quantity and location in cells of descending colon between patients with FC and patients with IBS-C,which is a way for differentiation these two diseases.

Objective To determine the changing trend and causes of perinatal mortality in Changning District after the implementation of the universal two-child policy， and then explore effective interventions for preventing perinatal mortality. Methods Data of perinatal mortality in Changning District from 2011 to 2020 were retrospectively collected. Change of perinatal mortality， causes of death and related factors were compared in consecutive 5 years before and after the universal two-child policy. Results In total， there were 153 099 perinatal births from 2011 to 2020 in Changning District， in which 352 deaths were documented. The perinatal mortality was 2.30 per 1 000 births， showing an overall downward trend from 2011 to 2020 （ P <0.05）. Residents with local household registration had lower perinatal mortality， compared to those with non-local household registration， which was observed both before and after the universal two-child policy （ P <0.05）. Furthermore， the perinatal mortality showed an upward trend after the universal two-child policy （ χ ²_trend=5.481， P <0.05）. The major causes of perinatal death were fetus and its accessories， fetal malformation， and maternal diseases during pregnancy before the universal two-child policy； in contrast， the causes changed to maternal diseases during pregnancy， fetus and its accessories， and neonatal diseases after the policy. The proportion of pregnant women of advanced maternal age， menstrual delivery， and pregnancy complications or comorbidities were significantly higher after the policy than that before the policy （ P <0.05）. The most common pregnancy complication was gestational diabetes mellitus， gestational hypertension， and hypothyroidism during pregnancy after the universal two-child policy. Of them， the proportion of gestational hypertension increased from 6.56% （4/61） to 25.88% （22/85）. Conclusion Before and after the universal two-child policy， the perinatal mortality in non-local residents remains high and further shows an upward trend. Moreover， pregnant women advanced maternal age and those with complications or comorbidities may increasingly contribute to perinatal deaths after the policy. Therefore， health education should be strengthened to improve the awareness of self-health care， especially for non-local women. Hierarchical perinatal health service， primary prevention and treatment of pregnancy complications or comorbidities should be improved to further reduce perinatal mortality.

Objective:To analyze the prevalence of parturiophobia and its association with preferred mode of delivery in pregnant women in Changning District, Shanghai.Methods:A cross- sectional study was conducted among 1 560 pregnant women in the third trimester who had their antenatal examination in Changning Maternity and Infant Health Hospital from September 2020 to March 2021. Fear of childbirth was measured with a validated Chinese version of Wijma Delivery Expectancy/Experience Questionnaire version A (W-DEQ-A). Based on the W-DEQ-A scores, the participants were divided into two groups: non-clinical parturiophobia group [<85 scores, including mild (≤37 scores), moderate (38-65 scores) and severe (66-84 scores) parturiophobia] and clinical parturiophobia group (≥85 scores). Rank-sum test, Chi-square test and t-test were used for univariate analysis. Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors associated with fear of childbirth and its relationship with preferred mode of delivery. Results:The detection rates of mild, moderate, severe and clinical parturiophobia were 18.8% (294/1 560), 44.9% (700/1 560), 31.1% (485/1 560) and 5.2% (81/1 560), respectively. Multivariate binary logistic regression showed that the participants who were supported by relatives and friends to have cesarean section ( OR=3.45, 95% CI: 1.29-9.22) or had antenatal anxiety ( OR=4.73, 95% CI: 2.49-8.97) were more likely to have clinical parturiophobia, while those with planned pregnancy ( OR=0.49, 95% CI: 0.29-0.82), high intensity physical activity ( OR=0.36, 95% CI: 0.18-0.72) or better/well understanding of the delivery process ( OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.19-0.97) were less likely to develop clinical parturiophobia (all P<0.05). Compared with the non-clinical parturiophobia women, those with clinical parturiophobia were more likely to choose cesarean section ( OR=2.15, 95% CI: 1.22-3.78, P=0.008). Conclusions:The detection rates of severe and clinical parturiophobia are 31.1% and 5.2% in Changning District, Shanghai. The associated factors mainly include the attitudes of relatives and friends towards the mode of delivery, antenatal anxiety, planned pregnancy or not, physical activity level and the understanding of delivery process. Clinical parturiophobia might be an important factor for cesarean section on maternal request.

AIM:Using bioinformatics analysis methods to identify the hub genes involved in myocardial isch-emia-reperfusion injury(MIRI).METHODS:Firstly,the rat MIRI related dataset GSE122020,E-MEXP-2098,and E-GEOD-4105 were downloaded from the database.Secondly,differentially expressed genes(DEGs)were screened from each dataset using the linear models for microarray data(limma)package,and robust DEGs were filtered using the robust rank aggregation(RRA)method.In addition,the surrogate variable analysis(SVA)package was used to merge all datas-ets into one,and merged DEGs were screened using the limma package.The common DEGs were obtained by taking the intersection of the two channels of DEGs.Next,the protein-protein interaction(PPI)network of common DEGs was con-structed,and the hub genes were identified using the density-maximizing neighborhood component(DMNC)algorithm.The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was plotted to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the hub gene.Then,the mRNA and protein expression levels of hub genes were detected in the rat MIRI model,and the literature re-view analysis was carried out on the involvement of hub genes in MIRI.Finally,the gene set enrichment analysis(GSEA)was performed on hub gene to further reveal the possible mechanism in mediating MIRI.RESULTS:A total of 143 robust DEGs and 48 merged DEGs were identified.After taking the intersection of the two,48 common DEGs were obtained.In the PPI network of common DEGs,5 hub genes were screened out,namely MYC proto-oncogene bHLH transcription fac-tor(MYC),prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2(PTGS2),heme oxygenase 1(HMOX1),caspase-3(CASP3),and plasminogen activator urokinase receptor(PLAUR).The ROC results showed that the area under the curve values for all hub genes were greater than 0.8.MYC,PTGS2,CASP3,and PLAUR showed high mRNA and protein expression in rat MIRI,while there was no difference in mRNA and protein expression for HMOX1.The literature review revealed that among the 5 hub genes,only PLAUR has not been reported to be involved in MIRI.The GSEA results for PLAUR indicat-ed that its functional enrichment mainly focused on pathways such as NOD-like receptor signaling pathway,P53 signaling pathway,Toll-like receptor signaling pathway,apoptosis,and fatty acid metabolism.CONCLUSION:MYC,PTGS2,CASP3,HMOX1,and PLAUR are involved in the pathological process of MIRI.PLAUR is a potential hub gene that can mediate MIRI by regulating pathways such as NOD like receptor signaling,P53 signaling,Toll like receptor signaling,cell apoptosis,and fatty acid metabolism.The results can provide reference for further investigation into the molecular mechanisms and therapeutic targets of MIRI.

Objective To determine the management of family planning technology services in Changning District of Shanghai over the past decade， and to explore the key populations and service patterns along with changing family planning policy， so as to provide evidence for further family planning services and management. Methods Based on the routine statistics， family planning surgery， management of key populations， management of surgery quality， and contraceptive counseling from 2011 through 2020 in Changning District were retrospectively reviewed. Results The number of family planning surgery， induced abortion， midtrimester induced abortion， live births， and birth to induced abortion ratio has decreased. Majority of those who received induced abortion were non-local married women， whereas those under 19 years were principally non-local unmarried ones. In total， contraceptive counseling decreased among newly married couples and in the community. Postpartum contraceptive counseling guidance remained at a low level. Furthermore， the number of IUD placements and subcutaneous implants has reduced， suggesting the acceptance of highly effective methods of contraception needs to be improved. The percentage of immediate IUD placement following induced abortion gradually increased. In addition， the percentage of high-risk family planning surgery showed a decreasing trend， however， serious surgical complications remained. Conclusion With the “universal two-child” policy， the number of family planning surgery， especially induced abortions， has decreased significantly. It warrants a demand-driven family planning services， including strengthening the multiple health education and promoting to having a second child for key populations. Moreover， we should optimize the service process， strengthen the professional training for relevant clinicians and staff， and improve the quality of services for ensuring the mother and child health.

Objective: To investigate the expression differences of serum tumor markers, such as CEA, CA125 and CA15-3, in different molecular subtypes of breast cancer and their correlations with recurrence and metastasis. Methods: The medical records and follow-up data from 212 patients with breast cancer were retrospectively analyzed. According to the expression of hormone receptor, breast cancer were divided into four molecular subtypes: Luminal A, Luminal B, Her-2 overexpression and Basal-like. The clinical characteristics and levels of CEA, CA125 and CA15-3 in different molecular subtypes of breast cancer patients before operation were compared, and the factors influencing the recurrence and metastasis of breast cancer were analyzed. Results: There were differences in the expression levels of tumor markers for different molecular subtypes of breast cancer. The expression levels of CA15-3 in patients with Her-2 overexpression were significantly higher than that with Luminal A, Luminal B or Basal-like (χ 2 =7.98,P=0. 04). The differentiation degree of tumor cells in different molecular subtypes of breast cancer was different, and the proportion of low differentiation in the patients with Her-2 overexpression was significantly higher than that with Luminal A, Luminal B or Basal-like (χ 2 =12.42,P=0.006). There was also differences in the recurrence and metastasis of tumor for 4 subtypes of breast cancer, and the highest recurrence and metastasis rate existed in the patients with Her-2 overexpression (F=8.69,P=0.034). The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that tumor diameter, degree of tissue differentiation and presence or absence of vascular tumor thrombus were independent risk factors for the recurrence and metastasis of breast cancer patients (all P＜0.05). Conclusion The breast cancer patients with Her-2 overexpression have high levels of CA15-3 and poor prognosis, which suggests that the individualized treatment of breast cancer should be combined with molecular subtyping, tumor markers and related risk factors.
