Vesicoureteral reflux,a most common congenital anomaly of the kidney and urinary tract,is associated with the malformation of ureterovesical junction. It does not cause any specific symptoms or signs un-less it is part of a syndrome or complicated by urinary tract infection. The exact cause is not clear,and genes or environmental factors may result in vesicoureteral reflux. The prevalence of siblings and offspring of reflux pa-tients are higher than normal control groups,so the genetic screening is necessary. This article will review the ge-netics of vesicoureteral reflux and possible interactions.

"CapFinder" technology,which can be used to clone the full length of 5′ UTR sequence of mRNA,was described.This technology used the terminal transferase activity of certain MMLV RT variants that added 3-5 residues(predominantly dC) to the 3′end of the first-strand cDNA exhibited when MMLV RT reached the 5′cap structure of mRNA.In the reverse reaction system containing GGG oligo,the terminal transferase activity was harnessed by the GGG oligo whose terminal stretch of dG residues can anneal to the dC-rich cDNA tail and serve as an extended template for RT.After RT switch templates from the mRNA template to the GGG oligo,a complete cDNA copy of the original RNA was synthesized with the additional GGG oligo sequences at the end.5′UTR of mRNA can be amplified with GGG oligo as forward primer and a gene-specific reverse primer.5′UTR of Bt toxin receptor E-Cadherin gene in midgut of cotton bollworm was cloned.

Objective To evaluate the implementation effect of work improvement in health services technical tool （ ） - HealthWISE developed by the International Labor Organization and the World Health Organization in a grade A tertiary Methods - hospital. A total of 14 healthcare workers who had participated in the HealthWISE teacher training in a grade A - tertiary hospital since 2016 were selected as the research subjects using a typical sampling method. Semi structured interviews ， Results ， were conducted and the interview data were collected and analyzed. Among the 14 subjects five participated in the training for more than three times. The research subjects believed that they had gained great insights through the training. The ， training had led to positive changes in both individual and team levels. In particular the hospital had established an ， ， occupational health protection system which had been significantly improved in organizational construction training and ， - ， education capacity building and so on. During the prevention and control of the COVID 19 pandemic the hospital strengthened HealthWISE application to ensure the occupational safety and health of healthcare workers. All research subjects provided opinions and suggestions on the improvement of the national comprehensive occupational health protection system for healthcare Conclusion ， workers in the future. The application of HealthWISE in this hospital has achieved remarkable results which helps to promote the establishment of a comprehensive occupational health protection system for healthcare workers on a large scale.

Objective To compare the efficacy and tolerability between nonpenetrating filtering surgery with (NPFS-MMC) and without (NPFS-noMMC) intraoperative mitomycin C application for treatment open angle glaucoma. Methods Pertinent studies were selected through extensive searches of the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, and Chinese Biomedicine Database. Eight controlled clinical trials meeting the pre-defined criteria were systematically reviewed by meta-analysis. The main outcome measures were percentage intraocular pressure reduction (IOPR%), complete remission rate, total remission rate, and complications. The pooled estimates were carried out using RevMan version 5.0 software. Results The weighted mean differences of the IOPR% between the NPFS-MMC group and NPFS-noMMC group were 5.24% (95% confidence intervals\[95%CI\], -3.24 to 13.72) after 6 months, 8.31% (95%CI,4.33 to 12.30) after 12 months(P<0.05), 9.56% (95%CI, 4.88 to 14.24) after 24 months(P<0.05), and 14.45% (95%CI, 9.02 to 19.88) after 36 months(P<0.05). NPFS-MMC was associated with significant greater complete remission rates compared with NPFS-noMMC, with the pooled risk difference being 1.16 (95%CI, 1.05 to 1.27) after 6 months(P<0.05), 1.20 (95%CI, 1.05 to 1.38) after 12 months (P<0.05), 1.30 (95%CI, 1.05 to 1.61) after 24 months (P<0.05), and 1.36 (95%CI, 1.06 to 1.73) after 36 months (P<0.05). Intraoperative mitomycin C was not associated with any drug-induced complications. Conclusion The use of intraoperative mitomycin C is safe and can improve the effect of nonpenetrating filtering surgery in patients with open ganle glaucoma.

Objective To explore the effects of amlodipine,perindopril and valsartan on plasma adiponectin and retinol binding protein 4 in elderly patients with essential hypertension.Methods From March 2007 to July 2010,238 elderly patients with essential hypertension were selected and 193 cases completed this study.Patients were randomly divided into 3 groups:amlodipine group (n=68),perindoprilgroup (n=60) and valsartan group (n=65).Patients in each group were treated with amlodipine,perindopril and valsartan respectively for at least 12 weeks.The changes in blood pressure,heart rate,body height,body mass index (BMI),abdominal circumference,waist circumference (WC),levels of blood lipids,plasma adiponection and retinol binding protein 4 were observed before and after treatment.Results Compared with pre-treatment,systolic blood pressure in 3 groups were significantly decreased after treatment (all P＜0.01).There were no significant differences in blood pressure among 3 groups after treatment (all P＞0.05).Compared with pre treatment,plasma adiponectin level was significantly increased in perindopril group and valsartan group after treatment [(7.4±1.8) μg/L vs.(8.3± 1.8) μg/L,(7.5±1.7) μg/L vs.(8.4±1.9)μg/L,both P＜0.01].Plasma adiponectin level was higher in perindopril group and valsartan group than in amlodipine group after treatment [(8.3±1.8) μg/L vs.(7.6±1.8) μg/L,(8.4±1.9) μg/Lvs.(7.6±1.8) μg/L,both P＜0.05].Compared with pretreatment,plasma retinol binding protein 4 level in 3 groups were all decreased after treatment,and the decrements had significant differences in perindopril group and valsartan group (both P＜0.01) but had no difference in amlodipine group (P＞0.05).Plasma adiponectin retinol binding protein 4 levels were lower in perindopril group and valsartan group than in amlodipine group after treatment[(36.6± 14.2) μg/L vs.(42.7± 13.8) μg/L,(36.3±14.1) μg/L vs.(42.7±13.8) μg/L,respectively,both P＜0.01].Conclusions Perindopril and valsartan play important roles in cardiovascular protection beyond the antihypertensive effects by increasing plasma adiponection level and decreasing plasma retinol binding protein 4 level in elderly patients with hypertension.

Objective:To explore the correlation between serum cystatin C (Cys C)content and renal function in aged patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods:Clinical data of 237 aged BPH patients were retro-spectively analyzed.According to international prostate symptom score (IPSS),they were divided into mild group (n=25),moderate group (n=67)and severe group (n= 145);another 110 patients without prostatic hyperplasia were enrolled as normal control group in the same period.Levels of serum Cys C,blood urea nitrogen (BUN),ser-um creatinine (Scr),fasting blood glucose (FBG),blood lipids and prostate-specific antigen (PSA)were measured in all groups,and prostate volume (PV)was calculated.Results:Compared with normal control group,PV signifi-cantly rose [(18.94±4.62)ml vs.(40.09±12.72)ml],maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax)significantly reduced [(18.67±4.60)ml/s vs.(9.93±3.54)ml/s],and serum Cys C level significantly increased [(1.03±0.23)mg/L vs.(1.53±0.61)mg/L]in BPH group,P <0.01 all.Subgroup analysis indicated that serum Cys C levels in mild, moderate and severe group [(1.32±0.45)mg/L,(1.42±0.32)mg/L,(1.61 ±0.64)mg/L]were significantly higher than that of normal control group,P <0.01 all;and that of severe group was significantly higher than those of mild group and moderate group (P <0.01 or P <0.05).Pearson correlation analysis indicated that serum Cys C level was positively correlated with of age,SBP,DBP,FBG,BUN,Scr,PV and IPSS (r=0.179~0.580,P <0.05 or P <0.01),and inversely correlated with Qmax (r=-0.243,P <0.05)in BPH patients.Conclusion:Serum Cys C level significantly rise,and related with BPH degree,correlated with renal function in aged BPH patients,which can be used to predict renal function of these patients.
