Objective To study and analyze the relation between cognitive impairment and apolipoprotein E(ApoE) gene polymorphism in post-stroke depression patients(PSD).Methods The patients were divided into PSD group(83 cases) and brain stroke group(96 cases) by using the 24-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-24),and healthy volunteers were selected as a control group(53 cases).Cognitive function was evaluated by using the event-related potential (ERP) P300 and single nucleotide polymorphisms of ApoE exon 4 of 112 (rs429358) and 158 (rs7412) were determined by using gene sequencing method.Results 1.Compared with the brain stroke group and the control group,latency in ERP including N2 and P3 of PSD group was significantly prolonged (P< 0.05 ),while the amplitude of P3 in PSD was significantly lower(P< 0.05 ).2.e3/ε4 genotype frequency in PSD group(24 cases) was significantly higher than that in the control group(7 cases) (P<0.05).The e4/4 genotype fiequency in PSD group (8 cases) was significantly higher than that in brain stroke group (2 cases) (P < 0.05 ).The e4 allele rate in PSD group ( 24.7% ) was significantly higher than that in both brain stroke group (16.1%) and contro] group(9.4% ) (all P<0.05).3.The PSD patients with ε4 allele had significantly higher score of HAMD-24 and prolonged latency of N2 and P3 than those without e4 allele (P < 0.05 ).Conclusion There is cognitive impairment in PSD patients.The ApoE ε4 allele may associate with the cognitive impairment and depression in PSD patients.

OBJECTIVEBy explore the role of serum soluble Fas (sFas) in occurrence and progression of delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning (DEACMP).
METHODSEnzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect serum sFas levels in 40 patients with DEACMP in acute stage and convalescent stage, with 36 healthy elderly subjects as the control group.
RESULTSSerum sFas levels of the patients with DEACMP in both the acute and convalescent stages showed no significant difference from those in the control group (P=0.737 and 0.137, respectively), nor was any significant difference found between the patients in acute and exacerbation stages (P=0.059).
CONCLUSIONSerum sFas is not involved in the occurrence and progression of DEACMP.

Objective The purpose of this article is to summarize and review the current status of the construction of clinical research evaluation systems in domestic public hospitals,identify existing problems in the evaluation system,and propose development strategies and suggestions.Methods Retrieved relevant articles,dissertations and policies from the past five years(2018-2022),screened the titles,viewed the full texts of 52 selected papers and their references,and summarized them.Results The"five-only"indicators have long been an important indicator for evaluating clinical research in public hospitals,but in today's scientific research environment and policy environment,the"five-only"evaluation system has revealed its utilitarian draw-backs and gradually evolved into a hindrance to scientific research.It is urgent to break through the"five-only"orientation and establish a clinical research evaluation system oriented towards"transforming and applying transformation of scientific research achievements".Conclusion The evaluation system for clinical research should break the previous"five-only"evaluation model based on quantity-oriented scientific research evaluation.We can draw on the framework of the research output,influence,and environment indicators in the UK's REF Excellence Framework model,combine the American APT system and the Chinese STEM indicator dimensions,explore multi-outcome evaluation,integrate developmental indicators,and continuously improve the indica-tor system and application methods in practice to promote the development of clinical research in public hospitals.
