Objective To survey the cognitive attitude and participation intention for stakeholders of public hospitals,in order to provide basis for public hospitals social evaluation.Methods 621 stakeholders of public hospitals were subject to the questionnaire survey.Results 76.7%(475/619) stakeholders held it as necessary to independently launch the public hospitals social evaluation,and held that the evaluation subjects selection should be professional(83.8%),independent(67.7%),authoritative (55.6%),and proactive(46.1%).The survey also recommended that social evaluation of public hospitals should have such indexes as government investment (80.2%),social supervision (76.0%),and information disclosure system(7 1.1%).The overall willingness rate of stakeholders to participate in the public hospital social evaluation was 7 1.6%.Conclusions Development of the social evaluation index system of public hospitals and diversified evaluation subj ects are key to developing the theory and practice system of public hospitals social evaluation.

Inhibition of human cytochrome P450 (CYP) can lead to drug-drug interactions, resulting in serious adverse reactions.It is therefore crucial to accurately predict the inhibitory power of a given compound against a particular CYP isoform.This study compared 11 machine learning methods and 2 deep learning models based on different molecular representations.The experimental results showed that the CatBoost machine learning model based on RDKit_2d+Morgan outperformed other models in terms of accuracy and Mathews coefficient, and even outperformed previously published models.Moreover, the experimental results also showed that the CatBoost model not only had superior performance, but also consumed less computational resources.Finally, this study combined the top 3 performing models as co_model, which slightly outperformed the CatBoost model alone in terms of performance.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the depressant effect of FK228 combined with rapamycin on the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7 and MDA-MB-435.METHODS:FK228, a new histone deacetylase inhibitor, and rapamycin, the specific inhibitor of the mammalian target of rapamycin ( mTOR) protein, were used in the study.MCF-7 cells and MDA-MB-435 cells were exposed to different concentrations of FK228 and rapamycin.The inhibitory rate of cell growth was de-termined by SRB assay.Combination index ( CI) was used to evaluate the interaction between FK228 and rapamycin.The expression of the apoptotic proteins, cycle proteins and nucleic acid proteins were detected by Western blotting.The cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry.RESULTS: Both FK228 and rapamycin showed growth inhibitory effects on the breast cancer cell lines in a time-and dose-dependent manner.CI of the 2 drugs was less than 1 when the inhibitory rate of the cell growth was 50%effective dose (ED50)~ED70, indicating a synergistic effect.The combination therapy of FK228 with rapamycin increased the apoptotic proteins, and induced the down-regulation of phosphorylated Akt and over-expres-sion of caspase-3 compared with a single use of the drugs.The combination therapy of FK228 with rapamycin reduced the cycle proteins, and the cell cycle was arrested in G2/M.The levels of phosphorylated H2AX and acetylated H3 were ob-viously increased after combination therapy.CONCLUSION:The combination therapy of FK228 with rapamycin inhibits the cell proliferation and increases apoptosis with a synergistic effect, which may become a new trend for treating endometri-al cancer.

OBJECTIVETo delineate the phenotypic characteristics of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and the role of CRKL gene in the pathogenesis of cardiac abnormalities.

METHODSG-banded karyotyping, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) were performed on a fetus with tetralogy of Fallot detected by ultrasound. Correlation between the genotype and phenotype was explored after precise mapping of the breakpoints on chromosome 22q11.2. SNP array was also performed on peripheral blood samples from both parents to clarify its origin.

RESULTSThe fetus showed a normal karyotype of 46,XY. SNP array performed on fetal blood sample revealed a 749 kb deletion (chr22: 20 716 876-21 465 659) at 22q11.21, which encompassed the CRKL gene but not TBX1, HIRA, COMT and MAPK1. Precise mapping of the breakpoints suggested that the deleted region has overlapped with that of central 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. SNP array analysis of the parental blood samples suggested that the 22q11.21 deletion has a de novo origin. The presence of 22q11.21 deletion in the fetus was also confirmed by FISH analysis.

CONCLUSIONCentral 22q11.21 deletion probably accounts for the cardiac abnormalities in the fetus, for which the CRKL gene should be considered as an important candidate.

BACKGROUND:Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory disease with chronic rheumatic immunity.Soft tissue ossification and fusion and spinal stiffness can cause biomechanical changes. OBJECTIVE:To reconstruct the lumbar-sacral intervertebral disc in ankylosing spondylitis patients with lumbar kyphosis by finite element analysis,and to study the range of motion of each segment of T11-S1 and the biomechanical characteristics of annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus. METHODS:The imaging data were obtained from an ankylosing spondylitis patient with lumbar kyphosis.The original CT image data of continuously scanned spine were imported into Mimics 21.0 in DICOM format,and T11-S1 was reconstructed respectively.The established model was imported into 3-Matic software in the format of"Stl"to reconstruct the intervertebral disc,and the fibrous intervertebral disc model was obtained.The improved model was further imported into Hypermesh software,and the vertebra,nucleus pulposus,annulus fibrosus and ligament were mesh-divided.After the material properties were given,the model was imported into ABAQUS software to observe the range of motion of each vertebral body in seven different working conditions of T11-S1,and analyze the biomechanical characteristics of each segment of annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The range of motion of L1 vertebrae was higher than that of other vertebrae under six different working conditions:extension,forward flexion,rotation(left and right),and lateral flexion(left and right).The maximum range of motion was 2.18° during L1 vertebral flexion,and the minimum range of motion was 0.12° during L5 vertebral extension.(2)The annular fiber flexion at L2-L3 segments was greater than the extension(P<0.05),and the annular fiber flexion at L3-L4 and L4-L5 segments was less than the extension(P<0.05).The left rotation of L1-L2 annular fibers was greater than the right rotation(P<0.05).The left flexion of the annulus was greater than the right flexion in L1-L2,L2-L3,L3-L4,L4-L5 and L5-S1 segments(P<0.05).(3)The nucleus pulposus stresses of T11-L12,L1-L2,L2-L3,L3-L4 and L4-L5 segments in forward flexion were greater than in extension(P<0.05).The left rotation of T12-L1 and L3-L4 segments was smaller than the right rotation(P<0.05),and that of T11-T12,L1-L2,and L2-L3 segments was larger than the right rotation(P<0.05).The left flexion was larger than the right flexion in the T11-S1 segment.(4)It is concluded that in ankylosing spondylitis patients with lumbar kyphosis,the minimum range of motion of the vertebral body is located at the L5 vertebral body in extension.To prevent fractures,it is recommended to avoid exercise in the extension position.During the onset of lumbar kyphosis in patients with ankylosing spondylitis,the maximum stress of the annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus is located in the L1-L2 segment,which is fixed and will not alter with the change of body position.The late surgical treatment and correction of deformity should focus on releasing the pressure of the annulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus in this segment to avoid the rupture of the annulus fibrosus and the injury of the nucleus pulposus.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of 3D-printed oval root canal preparation by using small field-of-view cone beam CT (CBCT) combined with computer-aided technologies. Methods: An extracted tooth with a suitable single oval canal was selected by small field-of-view CBCT scanning. Three-dimensional (3D)-printed resin teeth were obtained based on the CBCT data after data conversion and processing. 50 general dentists were selected to prepare the oval root canal of the resin teeth with X-Gold rotary Ni-Ti instruments. Small field-of-view CBCT was applied to scan the oval root canals before and after preparation. Then, computer-aided technologies were used to calculate and compare these CBCT data, analyzing the effects of oval root canal cleaning as well as the root canal deviation by 3D reconstruction and rendering of the images. Results : Among the 50 cases, the mean unprepared area of the oval root canal wall was（56.20 ± 11.91）% and the mean maximum deviation distance of the root canal was（0.140 ± 0.041）mm. There was no correlation between root canal cleanliness and deviation (r=0.18, P=0.212). Conclusion Combined with small field-of-view CBCT and computer-aided technology, we can effectively quantitatively evaluate the root canal preparation effect.
