The influence extent of students from teachers is related to the teaching effect , which means whether it can successfully promote the study of students and reach the expected teach-ing goal during the teaching process. To have a good teaching effect, guided by the micro-system en-gineering of teaching reform, we used SIMPP to analyze the related factors of the influence of students extent from teachers during the teaching process in TCM colleges and universities. The result shows that the influence extent from teachers is related to not only teachers themselves but students and their self-condition and family backgrounds as well. Going further in researching these factors and the related behavior patterns of influence extent of students from teachers is helpful to making the teach-ing more effective and more targeted.

Objective To discuss the value of high resolution MRI in the evaluation of small intralabyrinthine lesions with the symptom of vertigo. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the imaging examination techniques and imaging finding of 13 cases of labyrinthine hemorrhage or exudate and 6 cases of intralabyrinthine schwannoma (ILS) with the symptom of vertigo. Two cases of labyrinthine hemorrhage or exudate and 3 cases of ILS underwent temporal bone high resolution CT(HRCT) scan and all the 19 patients received highresolution MR examination. Patients of labyrinthine hemorrhage or exudate received fluid?attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR)T2WI in addition to routine pre?contrast temporal bone MR. Pre?and post?contrast MR of the temporal bone were performed on the ILS patients. In particular, 3 ILS cases received three?dimensional sampling perfection with application?optimized contrasts by using different flip angle evolutions (3D?SPACE) sequence. Results There was no abnormal finding on HRCT of the inner ear of the 2 labyrinthine hemorrhage cases. On T1WI, regions of mild increased signal intensity of the labyrinth of affected side could be spotted in 7 patients whereas no abnormal signal intensity was found in the other 6 patients. On T2WI, all the 13 labyrinthine hemorrhage or exudate cases had no abnormal finding in the inner ear. On FLAIR T2WI sequence, regions of increased signal intensity of the labyrinth of affected side could be found in all the 13 cases. Thress ILS patients that received HRCT scan showed no valuable finding. On T1WI, no abnormal signal intensity was found in the labyrinth of the 6 patients. On T2WI, regions of decreased signal intensity of the labyrinth could be found in only 3 patients. All the 3 cases that received 3D?SPACE sequence appeared as a filling defect in the high?signal labyrinth clearly while 2 of the 3 lesions could not be found on T2WI. After Gadolinium administration, all the 6 ILSs were obviously enhancing. Conclusions High resolution MRI is valuable in the diagnosis of labyrinthine hemorrhage or exudate and ILS. The use of FLAIR T2WI sequence can help us to find labyrinthine hemorrhage or exudate more sensitively. The use of 3D?SPACE sequence can help us to detect and diagnose small intralabyrinthine lesions.

BackgroundHigh myopia is one of leading causes of blindness,so far the pathogenesis remains unclear.Two single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of rs6885224 and rs12716080 in CTNND2 gene were recently found to be associated with high myopia in Singaporean Chinese.But whether these SNPs are related with the pathogenesis of high myopia in Han Chinese is worth studying,Objective This study was to investigate the relationship between the genetic variations of the CTNND2 gene and high myopia in Han Chinese.MethodsA case-controlled association study was designed.Nine hundred and thirty-three individuals with high myopia and 1227age- and gender-matched normal subjects were included in this study.The 5 ml of periphery blood was obtained from all subjects for the extraction of genomic DNA.The target DNA was amplified using PCR and purified by the SNaPshot method.Four SNPs rs12716080,rs917012,rs6885224 and rs16901340 in the CTNND2 gene were genotyped.This study was approved by the Ethic Committee of Sichuan Provincial People Hospital.Written informed consent was obtained from each subject before his/her enrollment.Results The frequencies of the genotypes rs6885224,rs12716080,rs917012,rs16901340 SNPs were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) ( P=0.181,0.085,0.732,0.313,0.264,0.663,0.084,0.196).There were no significant differences in genotypes frequency distribution ( in turn P =0.654,0.406,0.828,0.403 ) and allele frequency distribution of the CTNND2 gene ( in turn P =0.377,0.209,0.743,0.198) between the high myopia group and normal control group.The haplotypes (TA and GA)frequencies of rs12716080 and rs917012 in the high myopia group were significantly different from those of the normal control group(TA:0.784 vs.0.719;GA:0.087 vs.0.136) (x2 =6.115,P=0.013 ;x2 =6.634,P=0.010),but those of GG were similar between the high myopia group and normal control group ( 0.123 vs.0.143,x2 =0.889,P =0.346). ConclusionsThe SNPs rs12716080,rs917012,rs6885224 and rs16901340 in CTNND2 gene were not responsible for high myopia,however,the haplotypes of rs12716080 and rs917012 are susceptible for high myopia in Han Chinese.
