This study was aimed to clone the GGPS (geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthase) gene from Lepidium apetalum, to analyze its sequence, and to express the protein in E.coli expression system. Specific PCR cloning primers were designed for GGPS gene from Lepidium apetalum according to the full-length sequence from a previous transcriptome sequencing project. PCR amplification was performed with this primer pair on a leaf cDNA template. TA cloning, sequencing and sequence analysis were performed.GGPS gene from Lepidium apetalum was expressed in the E.coli expression system. The results showed that the full-lengthGGPS cDNA from Lepidium apetalum was 1 146 bp coding a protein of 381 amino acids. The LaGGPS protein had an isoprenoid synthase domain. According to a phylogenetic tree constructed with multiple alignment of GGPS protein sequences from various plant species, GGPS protein from Lepidium apetalum was the closest to Arabidopsis thaliana and Sinapis alba. The prokaryotic expression vectorpET-32a-LaGGPS was also constructed successfully. The protein was expressed in E.coli BL21 strain. It was concluded that the cloning and prokaryotic expression of LaGGPS gene provided a foundation for a follow-up research of its function with protein purification and activity analysis.

Objective:To explore the predictive value of a radiomics model based on preoperative contrast enhanced MRI in the assessment of the isocitrate dedydrogenase 1 (IDH 1) genotype in high-grade glioma.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on a dataset including 182 patients with high-grade glioma confirmed by surgical pathology between December 2012 and January 2018 in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University. There were 79 patients with IDH1-mutant glioma (45 cases with WHO grade Ⅲ, 34 with WHO grade Ⅳ) and 103 with IDH 1 wild-type glioma (33 cases with WHO grade Ⅲ, 70 cases with WHO grade Ⅳ). All patients had complete preoperative brain contrast enhanced MRI.The cases were divided into a training dataset and a validation dataset at a ratio of 7∶3 using stratified random sampling. Radiomic features were initially extracted using A.K (Analysis Kit, GE healthcare) software, and were selected and excluded using Kruskal-Wallis and Spearman analyses. Using R softwear " GLM" function, the Lasso-logistic model was finally conducted to obtain the optimized subset of the feature to build the radiomics model, and the model was then tested with cross-validation. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to evaluate the performance of the model in differentiating IDH1-mutant type and wild-type gliomas.Results:The radiomics model showed good performance in IDH genotype differentiation in both the training dataset (AUC 0.870, 95% CI: 0.754 to 0.855, accuracy rate 79.8%, sensitivity 85.5%, specificity 75.4%, positive predictive value 0.734, negative predictive value 0.867) and the validation dataset (AUC 0.860, 95% CI: 0.690 to 0.913, accuracy rate 78.9%, sensitivity 91.3%, specificity 69.0%, positive predictive value 0.700, negative predictive value 0.909).Conclusion:The radiomics model based on the preoperative enhanced MR can provide a way to predict the IDH1 genotype in high-grade gliomas.

Objective To discuss the clinical effect of improved pelvic floor mesh implantation in the treatment of severe pelvic organ prolapse. Methods From January 2016 to April 2018, eighty-four patients with severe pelvic organ prolapse admitted to Harbin First Hospital were randomly divided into observation group and control group with 42 cases in each group. The control group was treated with traditional pelvic floor reconstruction,which used two meshes to reconstruct front and back of pelvic cavity. 42 cases of the observation group were treated with improved mesh-augmented vaginal reconstructive surgery, which used only one mesh to reconstruct total pelvic reconstruction by changing the location of puncture. The therapeutic effects of the two surgical methods were compared,including general condition of the whole body, perioperative period,operative period and follow-up. Results The amount of blood loss in the observation group were significantly lower than that in the control group((65. 32±20. 39) ml vs. (86. 52±30. 23) ml), and the difference was statistically significant ( t= 4. 56, P<0. 05 ) . The average operation time in the observation group were significantly lower than that in the control group ((40. 35±12. 41) min vs. (57. 83± 17. 54) min),and the difference was statistically significant (t=6. 56,P<0. 05). The medical fees in the observation group were significantly lower than that in the control group ((10 600±1 012)yuan vs. (20 200 ±1 123)yuan),and the difference was statistically significant (t=25. 38,P<0. 05). After one year follow-up,there were 1 case (2. 4%,1/42) of mesh erosion,2 cases (4. 8%,2/42) of sexual discomfort and 2 cases (4. 8%) of recurrence in the observation group. In the control group,there were 3 cases (7. 1%) of mesh erosion,4 cases (9. 5%) of sexual discomfort and 3 cases ( 7. 1%) of recurrence. The complications caused by mesh in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (2. 4%(1/42) vs.7.1%(3/42),4.8%(2/42) vs.9.5%(4/42)) (χ2 =3.98,3.46,P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the time of catheter placement,the time of exhaust after operation and the recurrence rate between the two groups (t=0. 08,0. 48,0. 05,P>0. 05). Conclusion The improved mesh-augmented vaginal reconstructive surgery is an effective minimally invasive surgery,which has small trauma and fewer complications,faster recovery after surgery, can save medical costs, and has broad prospects for clinical application.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of negative cognitive processing bias between pathological narcissism and interpersonal conflict of college students.Methods:The pathological narcissism, negative cognitive processing bias and interpersonal conflict of 540 college students were investigated by the super brief-PNI, negative cognitive processing bias questionnaire and NRI-relationship quality version.Descriptive analysis, correlation analysis and reliability test of the questionnaires were conducted by SPSS 27.0 software.Amos 23.0 software was used for structural equation modeling, and the nonparametric percentile Bootstrap method based on deviation correction was used for intermediary effect test.Results:The scores of pathological narcissism, negative cognitive processing bias and interpersonal conflict were (3.33±0.86), (2.41±0.60) and (2.34±0.77), respectively.Pathological narcissism, negative cognitive processing bias and interpersonal conflict were significantly positively correlated ( r=0.38-0.94, all P<0.01). Negative cognitive processing bias played full mediating role in the relationship between pathological narcissism and interpersonal conflict. The model was well fitted ( χ2/ df=2.63, CFI =0.99, NFI=0.98, IFI=0.99, TLI=0.98, RMSEA=0.05). Path analysis and mediation test showed that pathological narcissism had a significant predictive effect on the total effect of interpersonal conflict among college students ( β=0.52, P<0.001). Pathological narcissism had a significant predictive effect on negative cognitive processing bias ( β=0.64, P<0.001). Negative cognitive processing bias had a significant predictive effect on interpersonal conflict ( β=0.76, P<0.001). Pathological narcissism didn’t predict the direct effect of interpersonal conflict significantly ( β=0.03, P>0.05). Conclusion:Pathological narcissism has a positive predictive effect on interpersonal conflict among college students.Negative cognitive processing bias plays a complete intermediary role between pathological narcissism and interpersonal conflict.

Osteofascial compartment syndrome (OFCS) is clinically common and is well known to orthopedic surgeons.Clinicians attach great importance to OFCS because of its severe clinical consequences,and decompression of fascial compartment is often performed in emergency treatment.This article reviews the literature on the threshold of fascial compartment decompression proposed by many scholars in the past and discusses the problems in the clinical diagnosis of acute compartment syndrome,especially the inconsistent pressure thresholds as the indication for emergency decompression surgery.By observing calf fractures patients with tension blister,we found that the pressure of fascia decreased sharply upon the appearance of blisters.Meanwhile,the swelling gradually subsided as well as the clinical manifestations of pain and parasthsia.In view of the uncertainty of various thresholds of fascial decompression and self-decompression,the concepts of myofascial self-release law and muscle-swelling syndrome were first proposed.The author believes that when intracompartmental pressure rises to a point,some unknown mechanisms of fascia can achieve self-decompression.Therefore,no compartment syndrome will take place.We also emphasize that the ' muscle-swelling syndrome'should be strictly distinguished from the soft tissue necrosis caused by crush syndrome and acute limb vascular injury,so as to provide more precise treatment.We believe that without external restrictions such as casts,splints and compression bandages,the muscle-swelling syndrome can achieve self decompression by releasing the pressure in the compartment through tension blisters,and there is no need for fasciotomy.

Objective:To evaluate whether additional radical surgery is necessary following non-curative endoscopic resection of early colorectal cancer.Method:Clinicopathological data in 104 patients following non-curative endoscopic resection of early colorectal coucer at the Department of General Surgery, Peking University First Hospital between Jan 2011 and Dec 2021.Results:Lymph node metastasis and/or residual cancer was found in 23 patients (22%), including 12 cases of lymph node metastasis, 7 cases of residual cancer and 4 patients with both residual cancer and lymph node metastasis. Univariate analysis indicated that vascular infiltration, positive vertical margin, and female gender were risk factors for lymph node metastasis. Risk factors for residual cancer were tumors ≥2 cm in size, negative lift sign, infiltration depth of ≥1 000 μm, and positive horizontal and vertical margins. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that vascular invasion, positive vertical margins, and being female were independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis, while positive vertical margins was independent risk factor for residual cancer. Salvage surgery lasted for a median of 184 (156-233) minutes, with an estimated blood loss of 50 (20-100) ml and an average postoperative hospital stay of 9 (8-11) days. Seven cases of Clavein-Dindo Ⅱ or higher complications were observed, including pulmonary embolism in 1 case , anastomotic leakage in one, lymphatic fistula in one, bowel obstruction in 2 cases and urinary tract infection in 2 cases.Conclusion:Salvage surgery is mandatory for early endoscopic non-curative resection of colorectal cancer.

Objective:To analyze the satisfaction of referral patients for the medical services provided by the countywide medical community, for reference in further improving its quality and continuity of medical services.Methods:From April to July 2021, a systematic sampling method was adopted to selected the survey subjects from the outpatients from the leading hospitals and three affiliated units of two medical communities, as well as those from two county-level hospitals of non medical communities and five grass-roots medical and health institutions. A total of 660 patients were included in the questionnaire survey. The questionnaire covered key demographic information and 15 satisfaction questions under 4 dimensions. The propensity score matching method was used to reduce confounding factors, factor analysis was used to calculate the satisfaction of referral patients in the medical community group and the non-medical community group, and the systematic dynamics approach was used to analyze the effect of patient satisfaction on referral intention.Results:A total of 641 valid questionnaires were collected. Based on a 1∶2 propensity score matching, 591 patients were finally enrolled, consisting of 102 up-referral cases from the non-community group and 273 such cases from the community group, as well as 76 down-referral cases from the non-community group and 140 such cases from the community group. The overall satisfaction scores by both up and down referral patients were 4.26(1.01)and 4.29(1.14)respectively.The overall satisfaction, medical service satisfaction, technical service quality satisfaction and non-technical service quality satisfaction of up-referral patients, as well as the overall satisfaction, non-technical service quality satisfaction of down-referral patients of the community group were higher than those from the non-community group, with differences statistically significant( P<0.05). The higher satisfaction of patients with their referral in the community, the stronger their referral willingness. Conclusions:The overall satisfaction of refrerral patients in the medical community group is higher than that of the non medical community group. The construction of county medical community has promoted the improvement of satisfaction of referral patients. However, it is still imperative to encourage high-quality medical resources to support primary institutions, to enhance the service level of primary medical and health institutions, to implement differentiated medical insurance reimbursement policies, and to improve the continuity of medical services within the community.
