Objective To study the co-effects of methylene blue(MB) and exposure with the cold light source on cell DNA damage, and to explore the mechanism involved. Methods The alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis was used to determine cell DNA damage. Apoptosis of the cells was determined by flow cytometry analysis using Annexin V-FITC/PI staining. DCFH-DA probe was used to determine endocellular Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). Results The levels of DNA damage in the SGC7901 adenocarcinoma cells treated with methylene blue in the light were significantly increased compared to that of control ( F = 8.39, P<0.05 ). The DNA damage levels were related to the length of time of light exposure, and the damage was recovered to a certain level after light withdrew. Cell apoptosis ( x2=7.71,P <0.05)and endocellular ROS level (F = 34.11, P<0.01= increased significantly in the exposure group. Conclusions Methylene blue chromoendoscopy can induce DNA damage and cell apoptosis, and the mechanism may be associated with ROS produced by the photochemical reaction.

Gibbons have experienced extensive karyotype rearrangements during evolution and represent an ideal model for studying the underlying molecular mechanism of evolutionary chromosomal rearrangements. It is anticipated that the cloning and sequence characterization of evolutionary chromosomal breakpoints will provide vital insights into the molecular force that has driven such a radical karyotype reshuffle in gibbons. We constructed and characterized a high-quality fosmid library of the white-cheeked gibbon (Nomascus leucogenys) containing 192,000 non- redundant clones with an average insert size of 38 kb and 2.5-fold genome coverage. By end sequencing of 100 randomly selected fosmid clones, we generated 196 sequence tags for the library. These end-sequenced fosmid clones were then mapped onto the chromosomes of the white-cheeked gibbon by fluorescence in situ hybridization, and no spurious chimeric clone was detected. BLAST search against the human genome showed a good correlation between the number of hit clones and the number of chromosomes, an indication of unbiased chromosomal distribution of the fosmid library. The chromosomal distribution of the mapped clones is also consistent with the BLAST search result against human and white-cheeked gibbon genomes. The fosmid library and the mapped clones will serve as a valuable resource for further studying gibbons' chromosomal rearrangements and the underlying molecular mechanism as well as for comparative genomic study in the lesser apes.

Objective:To investigate the influence of angle Kappa on total high-order aberration (HOA) before and after small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE).Methods:An observational case series study was conducted.Right eyes of 98 patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism who underwent SMILE surgery at Tianjin Eye Hospital from April 2015 to May 2016 were selected.Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), spherical diopter and cylindrical diopter under cycloplegic condition were examined before the surgery and at l and 3 months postoperatively.The chord distance of angle Kappa was measured by Pentacam topography.Wavefront aberrations were measured by WaveScan aberrometer.Pre- and postoperative UCVA, refractive status and each HOA were analyzed.The relationship between angle Kappa and each HOA was analyzed by Pearson correlation.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by an Ethics Committee of Tianjin Eye Hospital (No.TJYYLL-2017-17). Written informed consent was obtained from each subject.Results:The preoperative, postoperative 1-month and postoperative 3-month UCVA (LogMAR) were 0.06±0.23, -0.03±0.07 and -0.05±0.07, respectively, showing a statistically significant difference ( F=779.330, P<0.001). There were statistically significant differences in spherical diopter, cylinder diopter and spherical equivalent (SE) between before and after operation ( F=1 107.811, 127.786, 1 191.266; all at P<0.001), and the postoperative spherical diopter, cylinder diopter and SE were significantly lower than those before surgery (all at P<0.001). At 6-mm pupil diameter, significant differences were found between postoperative total HOA, spherical aberration, coma, the third-order aberration (S3), fourth-order aberration (S4), fifth-order aberration (S5) and sixth-order aberration (S6) and the preoperative values ( F=75.915, 78.231, 66.186, 64.521, 97.161, 36.623, 28.852; all at P<0.001). The postoperative 1- and 3-month total HOA, spherical aberration, coma, S3, S4, S5 and S6 were significantly increased in comparison with those before surgery (all at P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between angle Kappa and total HOA, coma and S3 at 1 and 3 months after surgery (total HOA: r=0.357, 0.363; both at P<0.001.coma: r=0.310, 0.341; both at P<0.01.S3∶ r=0.343, 0.371; both at P<0.01). Significant differences were found in preoperative, postoperative 1-month and 3-month total HOA, coma and S3 between groups with different angle Kappa ( Fgroup=3.363, 4.277, 4.029; all at P<0.05). The postoperative total HOA, coma and S3 of the larger angle Kappa group were greater than those of the smaller angle Kappa group, with statistically significant differences between them (all at P<0.05). Conclusions:A larger angle Kappa may induce HOAs in SMILE surgery.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of medical social worker supervision in Shanghai, for reference to promote the high-quality development of medical social work.Methods:From June to July 2022, a questionnaire survey was conducted on the in-service medical social workers in all medical institutions with medical social work departments or posts in Shanghai. The questionnaire mainly included demographic information, current status of supervision implementation, and effectiveness of supervision. The data were analyzed descriptively with t test for comparison between groups and the Pearson test was for correlation analysis. Results:A total of 99 medical social workers were included in this study, 65 had received supervision, and medical institutions where 58 people located had established the supervision system. The average scores of actual and expected supervisory support received by medical social workers were 3.71 and 4.20 respectively, and the mean burnout level score was 32.91. The effect of establishing a supervision institutions on burnout was statistically significant ( P<0.05) and actual access to supervision support was negatively associated with burnout ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall situation of medical social work supervision in Shanghai was positive, but the demand for supervision was not fully satisfied; Supervision had a positive impact on reducing the burnout level. It is suggested that medical social work should further strengthen the cultivation of supervisory talents, promote the construction of supervisory systems, and improve the quality of supervision.
