Objecfive To investigate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphism-56(SNP-56)in calpain-10(CAPN-10)gene and polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)in Chinese.Methods The genotypes of SNP-56 of CAPN-10 were determined through polymerase chain reaction Tm-shift genotyping method in 638 local women in Shandong Province.Among them,334 were patients with PCOS (PCOS group)and 304 were normal women(control group).The baseline parameters including levels of serum follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),luteinizing hormone(LH),prolactin(PRL),estradiol(E2),testosterone(T)and lipid,as well as the body mass index(BMI)and waist/hip ratio(WHR)were measured.Glucose tolerance and insulin releasing before and after loading with 75 g of glucose were also assayed.Results(1)The frequencies of two allelotypes or three genotypes did not differ between PCOS women and normal women(P>0.05).(2)In PCOS group,patients with AA genotype had a significantly higher plasma glucose of 180 minutes OGTT(5.7±2.2)mmol/L[P<0.01 compared to Gagenotype(4.9±1.2) mmol/L,P<0.01 compared to GG genotype(4.9±1.4)mmol/L]and serum total cholesterol(TC)level(4.9±1.0)mmol/L[P<0.05 compared to Gagenotype(4.5±0.9)mmol/L].(3)Compared to PCOS patients with GA+GG genotype(P<0.05,P<0.01)or GG genotype(P<0.05,P<0.01),there was significantly higher attack rate of diabetes and tumor in the family history of patients with AA genotype.Conclusions These findings suggest that CAPN-10 gene SNP-56 which may not contribute to the genetic susceptibility of PCOS plays a role in glucose and lipid metabolism in Chinese PCOS patients.It may also be correlated with attack rate of diabetes and tumor in the family history of PCOS patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of β-catenin and drug-resistance mechanism of choriocarcinoma according to the expression of β-catenin in JEG-3 cells (human choriocarcinoma cell line) and drug resistant JEG-3/VP16 cells.Methods The mRNA and protein expressions of β-catenin were analyzed with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and Western blotting.Flow cytometry was used to determine the percentages of β-catenin-positive cells in the two choriocarcinoma cell lines.Results Both drug resistant choriocarcinoma cells and drag sensitive cells were found to express β-catenin; but the expression of β-catenin mRNA (1.43 ±0.24) and protein(1.49 ±0.17)in drug resistant choriocarcinoma cells was found much higher than that in drug sensitive cells(0.65 ±0.14,0.66 ±0.16,P <0.01).And according to detect by flow cytometry,we found the number of β-catenin-positive cells in JEG-3/VP16 cells [(40.13 ±5.17) %] was much more than that in JEG-3 cells [(13.15 ± 1.48) %,P < 0.01].Conclusions β-catenin was highly expressed in the drug resistant choriocarcinoma cell line (JEG-3/VP16).It indicates β-catenin might be involved in the drug resistance mechanism of choriocareinoma.

Objective:To explore the effect of digital rehabilitation system on the recovery of infants with cerebral palsy.Methods:Twenty-one children with cerebral palsy were treated with residual cerebral palsy in Putuo District,and 21 children with cerebral palsy were followed up.The patients were divided into two groups (n =21).The control group was treated by routine OT training by the parents,and the treatment group was treated with the digital rehabilitation system.Three months later,the efficacy was evaluated and compared.Results:After 3 months of treatment,the total effective rate (effective rate and effective rate) of the two groups was 90.5% and 81%,respectively,and the treatment group was significantly higher than the control group (P <0.05).The PROM of the two groups was improved (P <0.01),and the PROM in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P <0.05).FMFM was significantly higher than that before treatment (P <0.01),and FMFM was significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control group (P <0.01).Conclusion:Family (community) digital rehabilitation system can effectively improve the rehabilitation of children with cerebral palsy.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of Kwak and ACR( 2017 ) thyroid imaging reporting and data systems ( T I‐RADS ) for thyroid nodules . Methods Cases of thyroid nodule who underwent surgery from January 2015 to M arch 2018 in 15 hospitals in Sichuan province were collected and the ultrasonographic features of thyroid nodules were retrospectively analyzed by trained senior ultrasound physicians using Kwak and ACR T I‐RADS classification methods .

【Objective】 To investigate the hepatitis E virus(HEV) infection among voluntary blood donors in Liuzhou, Guangxi. 【Methods】 Qualified blood donations in Liuzhou from October to November 2019 were tested for anti-HEV IgG and IgM and.HEV antigen. HEV RNA test was performed on samples positive for HEV antigen and/or anti-HEV IgM. and the test results were analyzed statistically. 【Results】 The seroprevalence rates of HEV antigen and anti-HEV IgG and IgM among 5 751 qualified donations were 0, 26.03% (1497/5 751), and 1.67% (96/5 751), respectively.None of the 91 anti-HEV IgM positive samples was positive for HEV RNA, whereas 60.41% of anti-HEV IgM positive samples were anti-HEV IgG positive. The HEV antibody prevalence varied significantly by gender, age, and nationality (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The prevalence of anti-HEV IgG / IgM among blood donors in Liuzhou was higher than that in other domestic regions. Significant increase in HEV antibody prevalence was observed among ethnic minorities, such as Miao and Dong, and age group of more than 45 years.Follow-up studies with larger sample size could be conducted to estimate potential risks of HEV transmission by blood transfusion, which may provide references for selective screening of HEV infection marker among high-endemic population.
