Setting up the innovative and entrepreneurship education and teaching system is the important content of the current university education reform. Through the idea of leading innovation with entrepreneurial practice, we have implemented a series of education reforms in the students of medical laboratory technology, reformed the teaching methods and content, set up the tutors for undergraduates and improved the scientific research ability of students. The results show that the education reforms have enhanced the ability and sense of innovation, providing a good reference for the reform of innovation and entrepreneurship education in medical laboratory technology.

AIM:To study the effects of ischemic postconditioning on cerebral ischemia following middle cerebral artery occlusion in rats. METHODS: 21 rats were randomly divided into three groups: middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), MCAO+transient unilateral common carotid artery occlusion (u-CCA-O), MCAO+transient bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (b-CCA-O)(n=7, respectively). u-CCA-O/b- CCA-O was generated by transient middle cerebral artery occlusion plus transient unilateral/bilateral common carotid artery (CCA) occlusion. After the suture was removed, ischemic postconditioning was performed by occluding CCA for 10s, reperfusion 10s, and then allowing for another 4 cycles of 10s of reperfusion and 10s of CCA occlusion. Rats were sacrificed 2 d later and infarct size was measured. Cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured in different 15 time points: 0 min, 10 min, 1 h after MCA occlusion, 0 min after MCA reperfusion, 10s of CCA occlusion and 10s of CCA reperfusion in all five cycles, 30 min after MCA reperfusion. Functional neurological outcome was determined 1 h and 48 h after reperfusion. Infarct volume was measured 48 h after reperfusion. RESULTS: The infarct volumes in u-CCA-O group and b-CCA-O group diminished compared to the control group. The results of CBF demonstrated that b-CCA-O group diminished 9% compared with control and u-CCA-O group when 30 min after intervention. The rats in u-CCA-O and b-CCA-O group had better neurological performance at 1 h after reperfusion. CONCLUSION: Ischemic postconditioning reduces infarct size, improves functional neurological outcome, most plausibly by diminishing cerebral blood flow.

Objective To explore the relationships between resistin rs1477341 , rs3219175 and type2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Guangdong. Methods 180 patients of diagnosed T2DM in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2013 to December 2014 were enrolled in the study as the treatment group and another 180 subjects taking health examination as the control group. The genotype distributions of rs1477341 locus A/T, rs3219175 locus A/G were compared and the relationship between the genotypes and T2DM were anlysed by the logistic regression. Results The frequencies of the rs1477341, rs3219175 locus genotype reached the genetic equilibrium, showed their representativeness of a population group. The frequency distribution of rs1477341 genotype was statistically insignificant across the two groups (P > 0.05). The frequency of rs3219175 genotype AA+AG was decreased while genotype GG increased significantly compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The logistic regression results suggest genotype GG may increase disease risk of T2DM which the morbidity rate of AG homozygote was 0.630 times as high as that of GG homozygote (OR =0.630, 95%CI:0.405 ~ 0.980, P < 0.05) and the morbidity rate of GG homozygote was 1.551 times as higher as that of AA+AG homozygote (OR = 1.551, 95%CI:1.016 ~ 2.368, P < 0.05). Conclusions rs1477341 genotype has no correlation with T2DM among the population in Guangdong , but rs3219175 genotype does. GG may have a higher susceptibility to T2DM.

In order to adapt to the training target of medical laboratory technology professionals under the condition of five to four educational system,we reformed the experimental teaching of medical laboratory technology.The experiment teaching was divided three phases (traditional classroom teaching + simulated clinical laboratory training + clinical laboratory teaching).Classroom teaching focused on the cultivation of students' basic skills test;simulation laboratory training focused on strengthening the students' operating skills and basic post ability and professional quality;hospital laboratory teaching focused on strengthening the students' ability of medical laboratory management,test comprehensive analysis and scientific research.The reform practice of two sessions of the students showed that the students' examination skills and comprehensive quality improved significantly,which could better adapt to the social demand for technical personnel.

Objective To investigate the polymorphism of human cytomegalovirus（HCMV）UL146 gene in clinical strains,and to evaluate its clinical diagnostic and therapeutic value of gene.Methods The UL146 gene of clinical strains was examined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Q-PCR）or general polymerase chain reaction（PCR）.Positive samples of PCR amplification were sequenced and analyzed.Results High variability of UL146 gene was found among 28 HCMV strains.According to phylogenetic analysis,all sequences of UL146 in clinical strains could be divided into three types and four subtypes.Chemokine ELRCXC region was highly conserved in all sequences.Conclusion HCMV-UL146 genes showed a high degree of polymorphism,and its encoded chemokine ELRCXC region was highly con-served.The relationship between HCMV-UL146 gene′s polymorphism and different clinical symptoms of HCMV infection was unclear.

Objective:To explore the effect of goals-activity-motor enrichment (GAME) intervention on the motor function of infants with a mild or moderate developmental disorder.Methods:Randomized, single-blind, controlled trials were applied. Totally 108 infants with mild-to-moderate developmental delay, aged 0 to 12 months, were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, each of 54. Both groups were further divided into two subgroups, a less-than-6-month-old subgroup and a not-less-than-6-month-old subgroup. All of the children received 30 minutes of routine rehabilitation training five days a week and a 60-minute family intervention every day. In addition, the control group was given traditional neuro-developmental treatment (NDT) while the observation group was provided with an intervention based on the GAME program. Before and after 8 weeks of treatment, both groups were evaluated using the Alberta infant motor scale (AMIS).Results:After the intervention, both groups′ average total scores and average scores in the different positions were significantly better than before the intervention. The average AIMS scores of the observation group supine, prone and seated, as well as their average total score were significantly higher than those of the control group after the intervention. There were no significant differences in the AIMS score increases in the different positions between the two subgroups. However, the increase in average total AIMS score of the less-than-6-month-old subgroup was significantly greater than that of the older subgroup.Conclusion:The GAME protocol can improve the motor function of infants with mild to moderate developmental disorders more effectively than a traditional NDT program. The effect is greater with younger infants.

Objective:To study the predictive value of peripheral blood cathepsin (Cat) level on arteriovenous fistula stenosis and therapeutic effect of urokinase combined with argatroban in patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).Methods:The clinical data of 120 patients with MHD from January 2017 to January 2021 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 72 patients had arteriovenous fistula stenosis (stenosis group), and 48 patients had not arteriovenous fistula stenosis (non-stenosis group). The patients in stenosis group were treated with urokinase combined with argatroban, and the therapeutic effect was evaluated; the stenosis degree of arteriovenous fistula stenosis was evaluated by digital subtraction angiography (DSA). The levels of Cat K and S in peripheral blood were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of Cat K and S in peripheral blood on arteriovenous fistula stenosis in patients with MHD. The independent risk factor of arteriovenous fistula stenosis in patients with MHD was analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results:The levels of Cat K and S in peripheral blood in stenosis group were significantly higher than those in non-stenosis group: (404.34 ± 12.43) μg/L vs. (344.22 ± 12.09) μg/L and (124.55 ± 13.43) μg/L vs. (84.60 ± 12.45) μg/L, and there were statistical differences ( t = 26.39 and 16.68, P<0.01). The result of DSA showed that mild stenosis of arteriovenous fistula stenosis was in 33 cases, moderate stenosis in 23 cases, and severe stenosis in 16 cases. The levels of Cat K and S in peripheral blood in patients with moderate stenosis and severe stenosis were significantly higher than those in patients with mild stenosis: (399.83 ± 11.79) and (476.27 ± 12.24) μg/L vs. (372.61 ± 12.88) μg/L, (125.77 ± 12.75) and (151.69 ± 11.86) μg/L vs. (110.54 ± 12.07) μg/L, the indexes in patients with severe stenosis were significantly higher than those in patients with moderate stenosis, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). After treatment, excellent was in 40 cases, effective in 23 cases, and ineffective in 9 cases. The levels of Cat K and S in peripheral blood in patients with effective and ineffective were significantly higher than those in patients with excellent: (404.78 ± 10.96) and (491.30 ± 10.26) μg/L vs. (384.52 ± 10.36) μg/L, (121.85 ± 10.99) and (232.65 ± 10.61) μg/L vs. (101.78 ± 10.61) μg/L, the indexes in patients with ineffective were significantly higher than those in patients with effective, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). The ROC curve analysis result showed that the area under the curve of Cat K combined with Cat S in peripheral blood in forecasting arteriovenous fistula stenosis in patients with MHD was larger than that of Cat K and S alone (0.699 vs. 0.635 and 0.611), and the accuracy and specificity were also significantly higher (80.83% vs. 48.33% and 60.00%, 89.58% vs. 76.25% and 81.33%), the optimum cut-off values of Cat K and S in peripheral blood were 401.23 and 123.65 μg/L. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that the levels of Cat K and S in peripheral blood were the independent risk factor of arteriovenous fistula stenosis in patients with MHD ( OR = 1.02 and 1.63, 95% CI 0.90 to 1.93 and 1.33 to 2.32, P<0.01). Conclusions:The levels of Cat K and S in peripheral blood can predict the occurrence and extent of arteriovenous fistula stenosis in patients with MHD, and could also predict the therapeutic effect of urokinase combined with agatroban.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics of primary mucinous gland lesions of the fallopian tubes.Methods:The clinical data, pathomorphological characteristics and immunophenotype of 14 cases of primary mucinous gland lesions of the fallopian tube diagnosed at Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University from 2015 to 2023 were analyzed retrospectively. In addition, a comprehensive review of relevant literature was conducted.Results:The age of 14 patients ranged from 53 to 83 years, with an average of 65 years. Among them, 13 cases exhibited unilateral involvement while one case showed bilateral presentation. Nine cases were mucinous metaplasia of the fallopian tube, four cases were invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma and one case was mucinous carcinoma in situ. Morphologically, mucinous metaplasia of the fallopian tube was focal, with or without inflammation. The cells of mucinous adenocarcinoma or mucinous carcinoma in situ exhibited characteristics indicative of gastrointestinal differentiation. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed diffuse positive expression of CK7, and negative expression of SATB2. CDX2 demonstrated positive staining in two cases. One case exhibited diffuse and strongly positive mutant expression of p53, whereas the remaining cases displayed wild-type expression. MUC6 showed diffuse or focally positive staining in mucinous gland lesions characterized by gastric differentiation. Some cases of mucinous adenocarcinoma of fallopian tube were subject to AB-PAS staining, resulting in red to purple cytoplasmic staining.Conclusions:Primary mucinous lesions of the fallopian tube are exceedingly uncommon. All cases of mucinous adenocarcinoma of fallopian tubes in this study exhibit the morphology and immunohistochemical characteristics of gastrointestinal differentiation. Mucinous metaplasia of the fallopian tube is a benign lesion of incidental finding, which is closely related to inflammation or gastric differentiation. Mucinous lesions of cervix, ovary and digestive tract are excluded in all patients, confirming the independent existence of mucinous lesions within fallopian tubes.

In the face of the worldwide threat of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) to human life, some of the most urgent challenges are to develop fast and accurate analytical methods for early diagnosis of this disease as well as to create a safe anti-viral vaccine for prevention. To these ends, we investigated the antigenicity of the spike protein (S protein), a major structural protein in the SARS-coronavirus (SARS-CoV). Based upon the theoretical analysis for hydrophobicity of the S protein, 18 peptides were synthesized. Using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), these peptides were screened in the sera from SARS patients. According to these results, two fragments of the S gene were amplified by PCR and cloned into pET-32a. Both S fragments were expressed in the BL-21 strain and further purified with an affinity chromatography. These recombinant S fragments were confirmed to have positive cross-reactions with SARS sera, either by Western blot or by ELISA. Our results demonstrated that the potential epitope regions were located at Codons 469-882 in the S protein, and one epitope site was located at Codons 599-620. Identification of antigenic regions in the SARS-CoV S protein may be important for the functional studies of this virus or the development of clinical diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the causes of abnormal decrease in maximum amplitude(MA)of thromboelastog-raphy(TEG)and its effect on prognosis by monitoring the changes of coagulation-related indexes in emergency trauma pa-tients.Methods A total of 319 cases of trauma patients admitted to our hospital from September 2020 to September 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,and the coagulation-related indexes of 0 h and 24 h after admission were observed.According to the MA results,they were divided into normal MA group(>50 mm)and reduced MA group(≤50 mm)to compare the hemoglobin(Hb),platelets count(Plt),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),prothrombin time(PT),fibrinogen(Fib),thrombin time(TT),D-dimer(D-D),coagulation reaction time(R),clot formation kinetics(Angle),30 min clot dissolution rate(Ly30),MA,thrombine-antithrombin complex(TAT)and plasminase-α2 plasminase inhibitor complex(PIC).The correlation between MA and fibrinolysis indexes in 319 trauma patients was analyzed.According to whether tranexamic acid(TXA)was used,the reduced MA group was divided into a TXA group and a non-drug group.The differ-ences in the change of the above coagulation-related indexes,mortality rate and changes in blood product dosage were com-pared between the two groups.Results Compared with the normal MA group,Hb,Plt,Fib,diastolic blood pressure and GCS scores decreased,while heart rate,ISS score and mortality increased significantly in the reduced MA group(P<0.05).The R,PT and TT were prolonged significantly(P<0.05),and PIC and D-D increased significantly(P<0.05)in the re-duced MA group.Correlation analysis found that MA had no correlation with Ly30,TAT and APTT,but was correlated with Angle(r=0.803),Plt(r=0.544),Fib(r=0.581),PIC(r=-0.443)and D-D(r=-0.343).Compared with the non-drug group,the change of Angle,MA and FIB in the TXA group increased significantly(P<0.05),while the change of PIC de-creased(P<0.05).Cryoprecipitate and platelet transfusion in the TXA group reduced significantly(P<0.05),and red blood cell transfusion had a decreasing trend,but the difference was not significant(P>0.05).The mortality rate in the TXA group was reduced significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion Hyperfibrinolysis may be an important factor in the abnormal decrease of MA in emergency trauma patients.Treatment with TXA can improve its effect on MA,and reduce the transfusion of blood products and the patient mortality.
