Objective:To analyze the research progress and challenges in electronic health records(EHR) in China by means of literature retrieval of EHR research in China.Methods:" Electronic health record" " Electronic health archive" and " Electronic medical record" were used as search terms, and subject retrieving method was used to retrieve literatures published before December 31 2019 on China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI) database. Such software as SATI, Netdraw, VOSviewer, UCINET and CiteSpace etc. were used for bibliometric analysis and knowledge graphing. These practices could analyze and visualize in an overall perspective the power distsribution, hot spots and evolution trends of EHR study in China.Results:2 146 papers on EHR research were retrieved. The study found that relatively stable groups of core authors on EHR had taken shape in China, and there were not representative authority organizations as of now, while a healthy research ecology was emerging gradually; the current studies were centering on seven hot spots and presented a clear technology-based tendency.Conclusions:Such areas as data security, nation-wide system integration, application performance upgrading mechanism and EHR data industrialization constitute both development opportunities and major challenges as well.

Objective To compare the prognosis and life quality of patients with early-stage breast cancer(stage I or II)undergoing breast-conserving surgery or modified radical mastectomy.Methods 180 cases with early-stage breast cancer were divided into 2 groups:breast-conserving surgery group(BCS)and modified radical mastcctomy group(MRM),with 90 cases in each group.The 2 groups were all given radiotherapy,chemotherapy and endocrine therapy according to indications.The prognosis and life quality in the 2 groups were compared.Results The 5-year-postoperative follow-up showed there was no significant difference in duration of disease-free survival(DFS)of the 2 groups.However,life quality of BCS patients was significantly better than that of MRM patients in terms of general health,physical function,pain,vitality,social functioning,emotion and mental health.Conclusion Breast-conserving surgery is highly recommended for patients with early-stage breast cancer.

Objective To observe the influence of down-regulation of HtrA1 expression by small interfering RNA on light-injured human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells.Methods Cultured human RPE cells(8th-12th generations)were exposed to the blue light at the intensity of (2000 ± 500) Lux for 6 hours to establish the light injured model.Light injured cells were divided into HtrA1 siRNA group,negative control group and blank control group.HtrA1 siRNA group and negative control group were transfected with HtrA1 siRNA and control siRNA respectively.The proliferation of cells was assayed by CCK-8 method.Transwell test was used to detect the invasion ability of these three groups.Flow cytometry was used to detect the cell cycle and apoptosis.The expression of HtrA1 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A was detected by real time-polymerase chain reaction and Western blot respectively.Results The mRNA and protein level of HtrA1 in the light injured cells increased significantly compared to that in normal RPE cells (t=17.62,15.09;P＜0.05).Compared with negative control group and blank control group,the knockdown of HtrA1 in HtrA1 siRNA group was associated with reduced cellular proliferation (t=6.37,4.52),migration (t =9.56,12.13),apoptosis (t =23.37,29.08) and decreased mRNA (t=17.36,11.32,7.29,4.05) and protein levels (t=12.02,15.28,4.98,6.24) of HtrA1 and VEGF-A.Cells of HtrA1 siRNA group mainly remained in G0/G1 phase,the difference was statistically significant (t=6.24,4.93;P ＜0.05).Conclusion Knockdown of HtrA1 gene may reduce the proliferation,migration capability and apoptosis of light-injured RPE cells,and decrease the expression of VEGF-A.

Sperm DNA fragmentation index (DFI) refers to the percentage of DNA strand breaks in the total sperm. Many studies suggest that elevated DFI can lead to male infertility and early spontaneous abortion. High-DFI patients are more likely to fail in assisted reproduction and preliminary treatment or prevention methods have been developed for this population. This review focuses on the impact of DFI on clinical pregnancy outcomes and progress in the studies of its treatment.

This study examined the effect of small interfering RNA-mediated β-catenin knockdown on the survival, invasion and chemosensitivity of human osteosarcoma cells (U2-OS cells). The siRNA against β-catenin was constructed and transfected into U2-OS cells. The expression of β-catenin was detected by qRT-PCR and Western blotting. Cell growth and apoptosis was detected in the presence or absence of doxorubicin by MTT and flow cytometry, respectively. Cell invasion ability was measured by transwell assay. The results showed that the transfection of β-catenin siRNA resulted in decreased expression of β-catenin, suppression of invasion and motility of U2-OS cells, reduced chemosensitivity to doxorubicin in vitro, and little change in cell growth and apoptosis. Additionally, down-regulated MT1-MMP expression was found after transfection. It was concluded that knockdown of β-catenin gene may decrease the invasive ability of human osteosarcoma cells through down-regulated MT1-MMP expression, and the chemosensitivity of osteosarcoma cells against doxorubicin.

OBJECTIVEThis study explores the effects of different fibrin glue combination modes on the survival, proliferation, and apoptosis of dental follicle cells (DFCs), as well as to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of fibrin glue as transplantation material.

METHODSThe membranes of surviving DFCs were marked using 3,3'-dioctadecyloxa carbocyanine perchlorate (DIO), and the cell number was counted by using ImageJ2x software. The apoptotic cells were marked with prodium iodide (PI).

RESULTSCompared with that of the 3D-2 and 2D-1 groups, the degradation speed of the 3D-1 group was the slowest. DFCs could survive and grow well in fibrinogen with a concentration of 15 mg · mL⁻¹ supplemented with thrombin with a concentration of 2 U · mL⁻¹. In particular, the 3D-1 combination mode was significantly conducive to cell proliferation and stretching.

CONCLUSIONFibrin glue can be used as an effective cell transplantation material. The different combination modes have certain effects on cell proliferation. The 3D-1 combination mode is more conducive to the survival and proliferation of DFCs than other modes.

BacKground:RectaI carcinoid is a rareIy seen neuroendocrine tumor. TiII now,there is controversiaI for the treatment modaIities of rectaI carcinoids with diameter between 1-2 cm. Aims:To study the expression of Ki-67 in rectaI carcinoids and the efficacy and safety of endoscopic resection. Methods:A totaI of 83 rectaI carcinoid patients with tumor diameter Iess than 1. 5 cm were enroIIed. AII patients were pathoIogicaIIy diagnosed and underwent endoscopic mucosaI resection from Jan. 2008 to Dec. 2013 at Chongqing Three Gorges CentraI HospitaI and Wuhan Tongji HospitaI. The medicaI records were retrospectiveIy reviewed and expression of Ki-67 in tumor tissue was assessed by immunohistochemistry. Results:AII patients underwent preoperative endoscopic uItrasonography. Tumors were Iimited to mucosa or submucosa, and no muscuIaris propria invoIvement or metastasis was seen. The mean foIIow-up duration was 38 months,and no recurrence or metastasis occurred. Ki-67 was IowIy expressed in aII rectaI carcinoids(0. 84% ± 0. 67%). When tumors were grouped by size,no significant differences in gender,age,tumor site and Ki-67 expression IeveI were seen between <1. 0 cm group and 1. 0-1. 5 cm group(P >0. 05). Furthermore,when tumors were grouped by a cutoff vaIue of mean Ki-67 index 0. 84%,differences in cIinicopathoIogicaI parameters between the two groups were not significant either( P >0. 05 ). Conclusions:Ki-67 is IowIy expressed in rectaI carcinoids Iess than 1. 5 cm in diameter enroIIed in this study,which denoted an inactive proIiferation. For rectaI carcinoids with diameter Iess than 1. 5 cm,with Iow Ki-67 expression and without muscuIaris propria invoIvement and metastasis, IocaI endoscopic excision is an effective and safe treatment modaIity.
