Objective:To provide a reference for integrated medical education reform in medical colleges by analyzing the scores of National Staged Examination of Clinical Physician Qualification (NSECPQ).Methods:The NSECPQ scores of our students in 2019 were analyzed by hypothesis testing. Chi-test was used to compare the pass rate of the examination, and the t-test was used to compare the total scores, the average mastery of disciplines and the average mastery of the system. Results:The total scores and pass rate of the examination of the students in the framework of integrated medicine education were significantly higher than those in traditional medical education. There was no significant difference in the scores of some subjects between the two educational frameworks, the scores of some subjects of the students in the framework of integrated medicine education were even lower than those in traditional medical education. For example, under the integrated medical education mode, the students' average mastery of obstetrics is 4.04 points, slightly lower than the students under the traditional medical education mode (4.11 points). It shows that the reform of integrated medical education still has some shortcomings in the teaching of some disciplines and systems.Conclusion:When implementing the teaching reform of integrated medical education in medical colleges, special attention should be paid to comparing the examination syllabus of clinical physician qualification, reasonably arranging the teaching contents of integrated medical courses, and strengthening the training of teaching staff and the construction of teaching teams, so as to ensure the teaching quality of integrated medical education reform.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the hematological and genetic characteristics of unstable hemoglobin Rush (Hb Rush) and compound heterozygote of Hb Rush and thalassemia.
METHODSPeripheral blood samples and genomic DNA from three patients (including two ethnic Dai and one Han Chinese) with anemia of undetermined origin were collected. Hematological phenotypes of these patients were determined through red blood cell analysis and hemoglobin electrophoresis. Genotypes of alpha- and beta-globin genes, -158 XmnⅠ polymorphic site ofγ promoter region, and haplotypes of 7 polymorphic restriction sites in the beta-globin gene cluster were determined using PCR-based methods and DNA sequencing.
RESULTSAll patients have presented hypochromic microcytic anemia and hemoglobin fraction with significant increased measurement (30.5%-59.2%) in the region of fetal hemoglobin during alkaline medium electrophoresis. DNA analysis suggested that all patients have carried mutations leading to the unstable hemoglobin Rush (HBB codon 101, GAG>CAG, Glu>Gln). Two of them were compound heterozygotes of Hb Rush and thalassemia mutations of -α,CD17 and Hb E, respectively. Hb Rush mutation was associated with various haplotypes of the β-globin gene cluster. No significant association was found between increased abnormal hemoglobin fraction in the region of Hb F and the polymorphism ofγ promoter or large deletion of the beta-globin gene cluster.
CONCLUSIONThis study has confirmed the distribution of Hb Rush among various Chinese populations and is the third report of its kind. Hb Rush can result in increased measurement of hemoglobin fraction in the region of fetal hemoglobin (Hb F) during routine hemoglobin electrophoresis under alkaline condition. Hb Rush heterozygote alone can lead to hypochromic microcytic anemia and thalassemia-like phenotype. Prenatal diagnosis of Hb Rush is necessary for carriers.

【Objective】 To establish a method for batch weighing blood components intelligently and accurately. 【Methods】 Virus inactivated plasma was used as weighing samples. The traditional electric scale and cryoprecipitation preparation instrument were used to weigh plasma with five specifications. The consistency of the weighing results by the two methods was statistically analyzed. Two groups of virus inactivated plasma with basically the same number of bags were randomly selected, and weighted by the same group of staff using these two equipment, the time for weighing and the time from weighing to registering were calculated statistically. 【Results】 227 bags of plasma were weighed in batches by the two methods, and statistical analysis showed no significant difference in standardized blood volume. There was no significant difference in plasma weighing time (71/68)by the same staff, weighing basically the same number of bags. However, the time difference from weighing to registering was statistically significant, as the new method was 2.65 s shorter than the traditional one (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The new method is accurate for batch weighing, and can realize the informatization and intellectualization of blood weighting. The time consumed from weighing to registration was improved by the new method, but not in time for weighing.
