OBJECTIVE: To explore the methods to detect and intervene children's late-onset hearing loss early which are suitable for basic-level hospitals. METHOD: Udiology and imaging diagnosis had been given to the children who passed the newborn hearing screening but showed auditory behavior disorders in the growth process, and individualized interventions were given according to the results of diagnosis. Seven children with high risk for hereditary deafness were sent to superior hospital and had molecular screening of common mutations of inherited deafness carried out, then corresponding prevention guidance and intervention were given to them. RESULT: Fifty-two cases with late-onset hearing loss or verbal disorders were detected by auditory behavior observations,including 4 cases of auditory neuropathy, 4 cases of unilateral sensorineural deafness, 27 cases of secretory otitis media. 13 cases of bilateral sensorineural deafness and 4 cases of autism. Seven newborns with high risk of hereditary deafness were sent to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University and received molecular screening of common mutations of inherited deafness. One case with GJB2 compound heterozygous mutations was detected and followed up to 4 years old, he was found bilateral moderate hearing loss and accepted the hearing aids at 2 years old. Mitochondrial DNA 1555 a > G heterogeneity mutation in 2 cases and GJB2 235 delC single heterozygous mutations in 3 cases, no mutation in 1 case, all these 6 cases have been followed-up until now, their hearing are normal. CONCLUSION Children's auditory behavior observations and the superior hospitals referral performing high risk individual screening for newborns with high risk for hereditary deafness can detect children's late-onset hearing loss in time, this model is suitable for basic-level hospitals.

Objective:The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of rtansabdominal wall press to adjust ovarian position in patients with difficulty in oocyte retrieval.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to collect 177 patients with difficulty in oocyte retrieval from January 2020 to December 2021 in the Reproductive Medical Center of Peking University Shenzhen Hospital. Among the 177 patients with difficulty in oocyte retrieval, 76 patients used transabdominal wall press to adjust the position of the ovary (pushing group), and the other 101 patients were treated with routine oocyte retrieval (control group). The oocyte retrieval rate, the number of oocyte and mature oocyte, the number of transferable embryos and high-quality embryos were compared between the two groups, and the incidence of complications was recorded.Results:There was no significant difference between the two groups in the ovarian stimulation program, the dosage of ovulation promoting drugs and the number of follicles ≥14 mm on human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) day (all P>0.05). The days of promoting ovulation in the pushing group were longer than those in the control group, and the level of estradiol on HCG day was significantly higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The rate of oocyte retrieval, the number of oocytes retrieved, the number of transferable embryos and high-quality embryos in the pushing group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The incidence of complications during oocyte retrieval in the pushing group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( P=0.003). Conclusions:Transabdominal wall press to adjust ovarian position can improve oocyte retrieval rate and reduce the incidence of complications in patients with difficulty in oocyte retrieval.

Objective:Human leukocyte antigen(HLA)B27 is a susceptibility allele of ankylosing spondylitis(AS),and HLA-B27 antigen typing is an important indicator for clinical diagnosis of AS,but current typing methods such as sequence specific primer polymerase chain reaction(PCR-SSP)still possess limitation.Therefore,this study aims to analyze the correlation between B27 subtypes and susceptibility to AS in Hunan Province by applying high-resolution polymerase chain reaction-sequence-based typing(PCR-SBT). Methods:Peripheral blood of 116 patients with suspected AS(suspected AS group)and 121 healthy volunteers(control group)admitted to the Second Xiangya Hospital from January 2020 to December 2020 were collected for HLA-B genotyping by PCR-SBT.Among the patients in the suspected AS group,23 patients were finally diagnosed with AS(confirmed AS group),and the remaining 93 undiagnosed patients served as the non-confirmed AS group.PCR-SBT and PCR-SSP were used to detect HLA-B27 typing in 116 patients with suspected AS,and the results of the 2 methods were compared. Results:The HLA-B27 allele frequency in the suspected AS group was significantly higher than that in the control group[11.63%vs 2.48%;P<0.001,odds ratio(OR)=5.18,95%confidence interval(CI)2.097 to 12.795].B*27:04,B*27:05,B*27:06,and B*27:07 were detected in the suspected AS group and the control group.The frequency of the B*27:04 allele in the suspected AS group was significantly higher than that in the control group(9.48%vs 1.24%;P<0.001,OR=8.346,95%CI 2.463 to 28.282).The positive rate of B27 in the suspected AS group and the confirmed AS group(B27+/+ and B27+/-)was significantly higher than that in the control group(χ2=16.579,P<0.001;χ2=94.582,P<0.001,respectively).Among the confirmed AS group,21 were HLA-B27 carriers,and the B27 positive rate in the confirmed AS group was 91.3%.PCR-SBT could achieve high resolution typing of the HLA-B gene locus,with higher sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,and accuracy than PCR-SSP. Conclusion:PCR-SBT typing analysis shows a strong correlation between HLA-B * 27:04 and AS in Hunan province.The PCR-SBT method can be used as the preferred option for the auxiliary diagnosis of clinical AS.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the status of anxiety and depression in field training military officers and soldiers and analyze the impact of coping styles and personality traits.METHODS: Self-rating Anxiety Scale, Self-Rating Depression scale, Simple Coping Style Questionnaire and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire were used to evaluate 494 field training military officers and soldiers by judgment sampling method. RESULTS: The rates of anxiety and depression symptoms of the officers and soldiers in field training were 13.0% and 23.1%, respectively. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the higher the negative coping style, mental quality and neurotic scores of the officers and soldiers in the field, the lower the scores of internal and external, the worse the interpersonal relationship and family relationship, the higher the risk of anxiety(P<0.05). The higher the mental quality and neurotic scores of the officers and soldiers in the field, the lower of the position, the lower the scores of positive coping style and internal and external, the worse the interpersonal relationship and family relationship, the higher the risk of depression(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Anxiety and depression are the main negative emotions in the field training officers and soldiers. Negative coping style, pathological personality tendency and interpersonal relationship are the main influencing factors of negative emotion.

Objective:To study the effectiveness of noninvasive embryo chromosome screening (NICS) based on blastocyst culture medium and cystic fluid in preimplantation genetic detection (PGT) of embryos in different age groups.Methods:A retrospective analysis of 62 couples who underwent PGT assisted pregnancy in Shenzhen Hospital of Peking University from January 2019 to June 2021. A total of 310 blastocysts were biopsied. At the same time, D3-6 blastocyst culture medium and blastocyst cavity fluid were collected for NICS. According to the age of the patients, they were divided into three groups: <35 years old group, 35≤age<40 years old group and ≥40 years old group. The results of NICS were compared with those of embryonic trophoblast (TE) biopsy in each group, and the consistency, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) were calculated. Then the consistency, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of NICS and TE among the three age groups were statistically analyzed.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the consistency rate of NICS and TE among the three age groups ( P>0.05), but there was an upward trend in the elderly group (35≤age<40 years and ≥40 years). There was no statistically significant difference in specificity, sensitivity and PPV among the three age groups ( P>0.05). There was significant difference in NPV between the ≥40 years group and the other two groups ( P<0.05). Conclusions:There was no statistical difference in the effectiveness of NICS among different age groups, However, there was an increasing trend in people ≥35 years of age.
