Objective:To analyze risk factors that were associated with loss of correction curvature after short-segment restoration and fixation in cases who had single-segment thoracolumbar fracture.Methods:87 Cases who had experienced single-segment thoracolumbar fracture and had underwent short-segment restoration and fixation in our department from Jan 2008 to Jan 2011,and had complete follow-up imaging were included.Cobb angles were measured on lateral thoracolumbar X-ray preoperatively,postoperatively and before removal of internal fixation.And these included the angle formed by vertebras that located above and below injured vertebrae (α angle),superior endplate of injured vertebrae and its superior vertebrae (β angle),inferior endplate of injured vertebrae and its inferior vertebrae (γ angle),inferior and superior endplate of injured vertebrae (δ angle).T-test was used to analyze these angles and their changes.And correlation analysis was used to analyze relationships between α angle change and other risk factors.Results:When compared with preoperative angles,the mean α angle,β angle,γ angle and δ angle were all significantly increased (p＜0.05) after the operation.The mean α angle and δ angle before the removal of internal fixation were both significantly smaller than those after the operation (p＜0.05),and the mean change ofα angle was-2.85 degrees.After the correlation analysis,we found significant correlations between the change ofα angle and postoperative correction curvature(-0.342,p=0.026),injured region in endplate(0.374,p=0.015),and change of the δ angle(0.231,p=0.041).Conclusion:There was significant loss in the correction curvature before the removal of internal fixation.And the loss was significantly associated with postoperative correction curvature,injured region in endplate,and change of the δ angle.

Objective:To investigate the genetic etiology of a child with epilepsy accompanied by motor retardation.Methods:A patient with epilepsy and motor retardation in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital in January 2020 and his parents′ peripheral blood 2 mL were collected.G-banded karyotyping and array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) were used to analyze the duplication / deletion of chromosome segments in child and her pa-rents.Results:The karyotype of the patient revealed 46, XX, and add(19)(p13.3→qter), whereas aCGH detected a 9.50 Mb duplication at 19q13.33q13.43[arr(hg19)(49593920_59092570)×3]. This region contains 471 genes.No abnormality was discovered in the karyotyping and aCGH analysis of the patient′s parents.The phenotypes of the patient conformed to the previously reported clinical characteristics of 19q13.3 duplication.Conclusions:The de novo 19q13.3 duplication is the cause of epilepsy and motor development retardation for the patient.Combined with aCGH, the traditional G banding is valuable to diagnose the patient with developmental delay.

Objective: To investigate the current status of HIV-related stigma among college students in Guilin,and to explore the impact of perspective-taking and empathy on HIV-related stigma among college students. Methods: The stratified cluster sampling method was used to select college students from 4 universities in Guilin city. Stratified randomization was used to assign all subjects into a control group (410) and an experimental group (396) for randomized controlled trials,and the HIV-related Stigma Questionnaire and the Basic Empathy Scale were used before and after the intervention. Results: Before the intervention of perspective-taking,there were no statistically significant differences between two groups in subscale scores and total scores of HIV-related stigma (t=0.80，0.35，-0.62，-0.10，P>0.05); However, signiticant differences in subscale scores and total score in HIV-related stigma were found after intervention (t=3.53，2.21，2.30，3.98，P<0.05). There was no statistically singnificant in the scores of all dimensions of empathy level and the total score before the intervention (t=0.10,-0.27,-0.08,P>0.05), dimensional score and total score in empathy were statistically significant after intervention (t=-2.15，-3.06，P<0.05). Empathy played an intermediary role of 14.08% between opinion selection and HIV stigma. Conclusion HIV-related stigma exists among college students in Guilin,and perspective-taking intervention effectively reduces its AIDS stigma. Empathy plays an intermediary role between them.

As one of the key enzymes in cell metabolism, the activity of citrate synthase 3 (CS3) regulates the substance and energy metabolism of organisms. The protein members of CS3 family were identified from the whole genome of apple, and bioinformatics analysis was performed and expression patterns were analyzed to provide a theoretical basis for studying the potential function of CS3 gene in apple. BLASTp was used to identify members of the apple CS3 family based on the GDR database, and the basic information of CS3 protein sequence, subcellular localization, domain composition, phylogenetic relationship and chromosome localization were analyzed by Pfam, SMART, MEGA5.0, clustalx.exe, ExPASy Proteomics Server, MEGAX, SOPMA, MEME, WoLF PSORT and other software. The tissue expression and inducible expression characteristics of 6 CS3 genes in apple were determined by acid content and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Apple CS3 gene family contains 6 members, and these CS3 proteins contain 473-608 amino acid residues, with isoelectric point distribution between 7.21 and 8.82. Subcellular localization results showed that CS3 protein was located in mitochondria and chloroplasts, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis divided them into 3 categories, and the number of genes in each subfamily was 2. Chromosome localization analysis showed that CS3 gene was distributed on different chromosomes of apple. The secondary structure of protein is mainly α-helix, followed by random curling, and the proportion of β-angle is the smallest. The 6 members were all expressed in different apple tissues. The overall expression trend from high to low was the highest relative expression content of MdCS3.4, followed by MdCS3.6, and the relative expression level of other members was in the order of MdCS3.3 > MdCS3.2 > MdCS3.1 > MdCS3.5. qRT-PCR results showed that MdCS3.1 and MdCS3.3 genes had the highest relative expression in the pulp of 'Chengji No. 1' with low acid content, and MdCS3.2 and MdCS3.3 genes in the pulp of 'Asda' with higher acid content had the highest relative expression. Therefore, in this study, the relative expression of CS3 gene in apple cultivars with different acid content in different apple varieties was detected, and its role in apple fruit acid synthesis was analyzed. The experimental results showed that the relative expression of CS3 gene in different apple varieties was different, which provided a reference for the subsequent study of the quality formation mechanism of apple.
