Objective To understand the present status and explore the influencing factors of quality of life(QOL)among medical students,so as to provide a reference for the improvement of the QOL. Methods A total of 1 898 medical students sampled by stratified cluster sampling method were recruited and investigated by wHO-BREF scale. The influencing factors were assessed by t-test and one-way ANOVA. The data were analyzed by SPSS 19.0. Results Scores of the physical,psychological,social relationship,environmental domain of quality of life were 64.99±13.28,61.85± 13.79,61.58±14.53,and 54.91±13.91,respectively. The results indicated grade,monthly income of family,physical training,quality of sleep and history of trauma were the influencing factors of QOL among medical students,and the differences were all statistically significant(P<0.05). Con?clusion The score of environmental domain of QOL among medical students was the lowest. In order to improve the QOL of medical students, schools should take different measures to them according to different grades or monthly income.

Since the examination of doctor's qualifications came into effect, methods that are set by standard to judge whether one passes the examination or not were in dispute all the while. This article is going to introduce four kinds of methods (Angoff method、Modified Angoff method、Nedelsky method、Borderline group method) which are commonly used at home and abroad. Summarizing their advantages, disadvantages and the usage in the process of standards setting in various countries, we aim to provide reference for setting cutoff score of the examination of doctor's qualifications in China.

Objective : o evaluate the association between Crohn's disease (CD) and frailty using a Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, so as to provide the evidence for prevention and control strategies. Methods: Genetic association data for CD were collected through the International Inflammatory Bowel Disease Genetics Consortium, with 20 883 samples and 12 276 506 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), and genetic association data for frailty were collected through a meta-analysis including 175 226 samples and 7 589 717 SNPs. A forward MR analysis was performed using the inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method with 37 CD-associated SNPs as instrumental variables, and frailty as the study outcome, and a reverse MR analysis was performed with 13 frailty-associated SNPs as instrumental variables and CD as the study outcome. The heterogeneity was assessed using the Cochran's Q test, and the horizontal pleiotropy was assessed using the MR-PRESSO global test and MR-Egger regression. In addition, the robustness of the results was verified with the leave-one-out. Results: Forward MR analysis results showed that patients with genetically predicted CD had an increased risk of frailty index relative to those without CD (β=0.018, 95%CI: 0.011-0.026, P<0.05). Cochran's Q test detected no heterogeneity (P>0.05), and neither the MR-PRESSO test nor the MR-Egger regression revealed horizontal pleiotropy of instrumental variables (both P>0.05). Leave-one-out analysis showed robustness of the MR analysis results. Reverse MR analysis showed no association between frailty index and the risk of CD (OR=0.740, 95%CI: 0.206-2.661, P>0.05). Conclusions Genetically predicted CD is associated with an increased risk of frailty. It is suggested that screening and prevention of frailty should be reinforced among CD patients.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of urapidil combined with recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide(rhBNP)in the treatment of high blood pressure complicated with acute heart failure.Methods Sixty patients with high blood pressure(HBP)and acute heart failure(AHF)were collected from May 2022 to December 2023 in the inpatient department of Yingtan People's Hospital were to conduct retrospective analysis.They were divided into two groups according to different clinical drugs,with 30 cases in each group.The control group received conventional drugs(amlodipine besylate+spirolactone)+intravenous furosemide infusion+administer urapidil intravenously,the experimental group was additionally given rhBNP.Both groups received treatment for 7 days in the hospital.Blood pressure,heart rate,N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP),left heart function changes and adverse reactions during treatment were compared in two groups.Results After the treatment of those patients,the total effective rate and left ventricular ejection fraction of experimental group were higher than those of control group(P＜0.05).The changes of heart rate,NT-proBNP,left ventricular end-systolic diameter,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and blood pressure in experimental group were lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).Two groups were no significant difference in the total incidence of adverse drug reactions(P＞0.05).Conclusion Urapidil and rhBNP is obviously superior to urapidil alone in the treatment of HBP complicated with AHF,and can obviously reduce blood pressure and heart rate,improve cardiacfunction,and is safe in clinical application.

Objective To evaluate traditional surgical treatment, intraluminal strategy and hybrid operation on revascularization of atherosclerosis obliterans (ASO) of the lower extremity. Methods Clinical data of 197 ASO cases receiving revascularization from January, 1998 to December, 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Seventy-seven cases underwent surgical treatment, 82 cases received intraluminal therapy, and 38 cases were treated by hybrid operation. The indications, clinical effect, complication and perioperational mortality of these three strategies were evaluated. Results 71% patients (164 cases) were followed up from 2 to 112 months. Surgical and intraluminal method had no statistical difference on long-term patency of aortic-iliac and femoral-popliteal artery (57% vs. 51%;48% vs. 42%). Hybrid procedure led to higher patency on multi-level lesion and concurrent thrombosis. The complications after surgery was higher than intraluminal on aortic- iliac and femoral-popliteal artery (31% vs. 12%;31% vs. 11%), and higher than intraluminal and hybrid on multi-level lesion (36% vs. 12% vs. 15%). The perioperative mortality of surgical group was 1.5% and 2.0% on aortic-iliac and multilevel lesion and 0% on other site;and that of intraluminal and hybrid procedure was 0%. Conclusion For aortic-iliac and femoral-popliteal artery revascularization, surgery was preferred in cases of long occlusive lesion and intervention was preferred for cases with short non-occlusive lesion. Hybrid procedure was the best for multi-level and concurrent thrombosis.

Objective:To explore the protective effect and mechanism of active vitamin D against kidney disease induced by insulin resistance(IR) and its underlying mechanisms.Methods:Male SD rats were divided into three groups: normal control group(group C), simple high-fat group(group HF), and high-fat with active vitamin D group(group VD). Differences of serum biochemical indicators, renal tissue cell morphology, Toll-like receptor (TLR)4-(myeloid differentiation factor, MyD)88-NF-κB inflammatory response pathway expression in mRNA and protein levels were compared among different groups.Results:Rats in group HF showed significant IR, higher serum levels of cystatin C, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, and C-reactive protein compared to group C. Rats in group VD demonstrated significant improvements in these indicators compared with group HF. Compared with rats in group C, the morphology of renal glomeruli and tubules in group HF was abnormal, with a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrating the renal interstitium. The situation in group VD was significantly improved compared with group HF. The results of real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, immunohistochemistry, and western blot showed higher TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB levels in the renal tissues of group HF than those in group C. The levels of the above indicators in group VD were lower than those in group HF.Conclusion:The results of this study suggest that TLR4-MyD88-NF-κB inflammatory response pathway play an important role in the pathogenesis of IR nephropathy, and supplementing with active vitamin D can protect the kidneys of IR rats by downregulating the TLR4-mediated inflammatory response pathway. Future basic and clinical research should focus on IR nephropathy to provide more insights and evidence for prevention and treatment.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Schroth PSSE combined with 3D printing braces in the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.Method Forty patients were included and divided into a support group(3D printing support group)and a support+exercise therapy group(3D printing support+Schroth PSSE group).Excluding outliers and lost follow-up data,32 patients were ultimately included,with 16 patients in each group.Wearing time≥18 h for both groups of 3D printing supports.The intervention period of Schroth PSSE is 12 weeks,and exercise is maintained after 12 weeks until the end of follow-up.The longest follow-up time for the brace group was 25 months,with an average follow-up time of(15.00±1.29)months.The longest follow-up time for the brace+exercise therapy group was 24 months,with an average follow-up time of(16.59±1.01)months.Relevant indicators were evaluated after follow-up.Results The support and exercise therapy group showed better improvement in Cobb angle and trunk rotation angle(ATR)than the support group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05);The distance between the midpoint of the C7 vertebral body and the midline of the sacrum(C7-CSVL)in the support and exercise therapy group showed a statistically significant difference before and after treatment(P<0.05),while there was a significant difference before and after Apical Vertebral Translation(AVT)treatment(P<0.01).There was no statistically significant difference compared to the support group(P<0.05);In terms of SRS-22 score,the brace+exercise therapy group can comprehensively improve the SRS-22 score.Conclusion The combination of Schroth PSSE and 3D printing braces has a better effect on improving Cobb angle and torso rotation angle,improving coronary imbalance,increasing patient satisfaction,and improving quality of life compared to using 3D printing braces alone.

Using mutation PCR, we cloned the target gene containing 421-480nt (141-160aa) and 598-639nt (200-213aa) of VP1 gene of foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV) into the deleted region (508-532aa) of Nsp2 gene of a highly pathogenic porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus derived vaccine strain (HuN4-F112) that was used as vector. The recombinant cDNA was in vitro transcribed followed by transfection of BHK-21 cells for 36 h. Then, the supernatant of the cell culture was continuously seeded to monolayer of MARC-145 cells for recovery of the recombinant virus. CPE was obviously visible after a couple of passages in the seeded MARC-145, and the rescued virus (designated as rPRRSV-F112-O/VP1ep) was identified by Mlu I digestion, sequencing and immunofluorescence assay. Meanwhile, expression of inserted FMDV epitopes was also detected by indirect immunofluorescence assay with polyclonal antibodies against VP1 protein of FMDV. The analysis of biological characteristics shows that the titer of the rescued recombinant PRRSV (TCID50 = -log10(-6.75)/0.1 mL) was similar to its direct parental virus rHuN4-F112-delta508-532, but higher than rHuN4-F112.

Using lipase segregation agar containing trioleoylglycerol, we obtained 18 lipase positive clones by screening from a metagenome library of dairy rumen microflora containing 15,360 clones. The average insert size of lipase positive clones was about 60 kb. Lipase enzyme activity analysis by p-NPP method indicated that Lipase6, Lipase7 and Lipase8 had higher lipolytic activities to substrates of p-nitrophenyl palmitate (C16), p-nitrophenyl alaurate (C12) and p-nitrophenyl palmitate (C16) respectively. The optimum pH of Lipase 6, Lipase 7 and Lipase 8 were 7.5. The halflife period of Lipase 8 with the value of 15 min in 70 degrees C decreased with the increase of temperature. In conclusion, the lipases screened in this study had different substrates specificity and good thermo stability, which laid a basis for large-scale industrial application.
