The xylose reductase of Pichia stipitis is one of the most important enzymes. It can be used to build up recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain for utilizing xylose and producing ethanol. Intercellular redox imbalance caused by NADPH preference over NADH for Pichia stipitis xylose reductase (PsXR) has been considered to be one of the main factors for poor ethanol productivity. Some key amino acids of PsXR, which affect the activity or coenzyme preference, were investigated in our previous study. In this study, Lys21 were rational designed for site-directed mutagenesis to alter coenzyme specificity of PsXR from NADPH and NADH into single NADH. The wild gene and mutagenesis genes were ligated into pET28b, and were transferred into E.coli BL21(DE3). After induced by IPTG, the xylose reductases were purified. Purified mutants K21A (Lys21-->Ala), K21R(Lys21-->Arg) were characterized by steady-state kinetic analysis. The results showed that the coenzyme dependence of K21A was completely reversed to NADH.

Objective To explore the value of OTSC( over-the-scope-clip) for upper digestive tract perforation. Methods Thirteen patients with old and fresh upper digestive tract perforation, treated with an OTSC clip at the Department of Digestive Endoscopy from May 2015 to June 2016, were enrolled. All OTSCs were 11/6t, and all procedures were performed by experienced endoscopists. Results Seven cases of fresh perforation were iatrogenic after treatment for gastric submucosal tumor. Six cases of old perforation included 2 cases of spontaneous esophageal rupture, 2 fistula after operations for esophageal foreign body, 1 fistula after the operation for gastric stromal tumor, and 1 anastomotic fistula after esophagectomy. Eight cases of perforation occurred in stomach and 5 in esophageal. Fresh lesion sizes were from 4 to 30 mm ( average 15. 3 mm), old lesion sizes from 5 to 10 mm(average 7. 8 mm). OTSC′s release time in fresh lesions was 6-27 min(average 15. 1 min), that in old 15-80 min(average 42. 3 min) with significant difference. Technical success rate was 100%(13/13),clinical success rate in fresh lesions was 100%(7/7),and 50% (3/6) in old lesions. No patient had special treatment or complication. Conclusion OTSC is useful and safe for the treatment of upper digestive tract perforation, which is superior for fresh perforation than for the old. The perfect time to release OTSC for old perforation is when there is no obvious fibrosis caused by inflammation. The success rate is higher when the lesion size is smaller than 30 mm. Self-releasing of OTSC is rare. The necessity and the timing to take them out still needs further study.

Objective To investigate the value of mean platelet volume(MPV)combined with red blood cell distribution width(RDW)in prognosis of severe acute pancreatitis(SAP). Methods 65 SAP patients from January 1,2013 to December 31,2016 were included in the study and were divided into pospital death group(n=7) and survival group(n = 58). The basic clinical data of two groups were compared,the risk factors for hospital death and the prognostic value of MPV and RDW were analyzed. Results Compared with the survival group,the APACHEⅡ score,RDW,PLT,MPV,PDW were statistically different(P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis was used to show APACHEⅡ score(OR = 1.793,95% CI: 1.212 ~ 2.654),PLT(OR = 0.982,95% CI: 0.967 ~0.997),MPV(OR=2.964,95% CI: 1.341~6.549),PDW(OR=1.470,95% CI: 1.019~2.122),RDW(OR=3.274,95% CI: 1.271 ~ 8.429)(P < 0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of APA-CHEII score was 0.861(95% CI: 0.743 ~ 0.979,P = 0.001),MPV was 0.828(95% CI: 0.689 ~ 0.967,P =0.003,RDW was 0.849(95% CI: 0.749 ~ 0.949,P = 0.001),MPV+RDW was 0.914(95% CI: 0.832 ~ 0.997, P = 0.000). Conclusion The APACHEⅡ score,PLT,MPV,PDW,RDW are all the independent risk factors for hospital death with SAP. MPV combined with RDW has an important reference value for the prognosis of SAP patients.

Objective:To investigate the genetic risk factors and prognosis of 190 patients with myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS). Methods:The clinical data of 190 patients with MDS admitted to the Department of Hematology,The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2015 to October 2020 were analyzed retrospectively,and the genetic background and survival curve of the patients were also analyzed. Results:MDS patients with higher risk according to International Prognostic Score System(IPSS)stratification at the time of initial diagnosis had more frequent and complex types of gene mutation and chromosomal abnormalities,indicating poor prognosis.The choice of treatment is associated with the prognosis of MDS patients with intermediate risk(IPSS stratification),and the relative risk of the overall survival rate of patients treated with hypomethylating agents is higher than that of patients on concomitant medication. Conclusion:MDS patients with higher-risk(IPSS stratification)have more complex genetic risk factors and lower survival rate than those with lower-risk(IPSS stratification).MDS patients with multiple genetic risk factors have a poor prognosis,and the type of gene mutation is a predictor of prognosis.

Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has led to more than 500 million cases, including 6.19 million deaths. Mutated strains of SARS-CoV-2 (alpha, beta, gamma, delta and omicron) have successively emerged. Currently the omicron variant is gradually replacing the delta variant, driving a surge of cases in most countries including China, posing a great challenge to the prevention and treatment of COVID-19. In the face of the severe pandemic situation, a large number of non-medical volunteers are fighting on the front lines of the war against the pandemic and are vulnerable to exposure due to lack of professional knowledge. This paper introduces the routine skills training of volunteers and emergency response, aiming to provide behavioral guidance for non-medical volunteers in designated isolation facilities.
