OBJECTIVE: To determine the incidence and genotypes of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency in Dongguan region of Guangdong Province and assess the efficacy and feasibility of flow-through hybridization. METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were randomly selected and detected by modified G6PD/6PGD ratio method. Flow-through hybridization was used to detect 14 G6PD mutations among all samples. RESULTS: In total 1005 samples were collected, the detection rate for modified G6PD/6PGD ratio method and flow-through hybridization were 2.79% and 20.90%, respectively. The consistency of the two methods was poor(Kappa=0.187). When c.1311C>T mutation is excluded, the consistency of the two methods was good for males (Kappa=0.952) but still poor for females (Kappa=0.194). The most common mutations were c.1376G>T, c.1388G>A and c.95A>G. No G6PD deficiency was found among those only carrying the c.1311C>T mutation. CONCLUSION Flow-through hybridization can simultaneously detect 14 loci, covering over 90% of common mutations in Chinese population, and can be easily expanded. The routine method may miss many females carrying homozygous, compound heterozygous and heterozygous mutations, but the detection rate for male hemizygous mutation was much higher.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in the treatment of obesity with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).Methods:The clinical data of 115 obese patients with NAFLD who underwent LSG surgery at Beijing Tiantan Hospital were analyzed.Results:LSG was successful in a 115 patients, and the body weight and BMI decreased gradually, and were significantly lower than the preoperative level (all P<0.001). EWL% increased and was 73.1%±30.1% at 12 months after operation. The postoperative triglyceride level decreased and was significantly lower than the preoperative level (all P<0.05). Most patients were complicated with abnormal liver function before surgery, and ALT, AST and GGT levels decreased to the normal range 3 months after surgery (all P<0.05). Albumin level was significantly higher 3 months after operation than before operation ( P<0.001). At 12 months postoperatively, the severity grade of fatty liver on ultrasound was significantly lower than that before surgery ( P<0.001). Conclusion:Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy can significantly improve lipid metabolism index, liver function index and fatty liver index in NAFLD patients along with weight loss .

Objective:To evaluate the quality of life (QoL) of Chinese chronic pancreatitis (CP) patients based on the Chinese version of the pancreatitis quality of life Instrument (PANQOLI) and explore its impact factors.Methods:404 patients with CP admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University between September 2021 and January 2022 were enrolled. The Chinese version of PANQOLI was used for questionnaire survey on QoL of CP patients. Univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to explore the impact factors for QoL of CP patients.Results:The total score of QoL of 404 Chinese CP patients was 28-94(72.47±13.61), which declined by 29.64% compared to the highest total score (103) in the Chinese version of PANQOLI. Score of physical function, role function, emotional function, and self-worth domain was 25.63±4.84, 13.86±2.78, 16.98±6.21 and 16.00±4.65, respectively. Compared to the highest scores (30, 25, 24 and 24), the scores of aforementioned four domains declined by 14.57%, 44.56%, 29.25% and 33.33%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that sex, age, employment status, smoking, alcohol consumption, and frequency of pancreatitis recurrence were significantly associated with QoL of CP patients. Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that older age (coefficient=-0.127), unemployment status (coefficient=-0.106), smoking (coefficient=-0.176), and high frequency of pancreatitis recurrence (coefficient=-0.123) were independent factors for QoL of CP patients (all P value <0.05). Conclusions:The Chinese version of PANQOLI could be effectively applied to Chinese CP patients. Older age, unemployment, smoking, and pancreatitis attacks were risk factors for QoL of CP patients, indicating that the formulation of personalized intervention measures may help to improve QoL of CP patients.

Objective: To understand the consciousness of the cancer early detection among urban residents and identify the influencing factors from 2015 to 2017. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 16 provinces covered by the Cancer Screening Program in Urban China from 2015 to 2017. A total of 32 257 local residents aged ≥18 years old who could understand the investigation procedure were included in the study by using the cluster sampling method and convenient sampling method. All local residents were categorized into four groups, which contained 15 524 community residents, 8 016 cancer risk assessment/screening population, 2 289 cancer patients and 6 428 occupational population, respectively. Self-designed questionnaires were used to collect population, socioeconomic indicators, self-cancer risk assessment, regular participation in physical examination and other information. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to identify the factors of people who had not regularly participated in the regular physical examination in the past five years. Results: The self-assessment results of 32 357 residents showed that there were 27.54% (8 882) of total study population with self-reported cancer risk, 45.48% (14 671) without cancer risk and 26.98% (8 704) with unclear judgement on their own cancer risk. Among population with cancer risk, 79.84% (7 091) considered physical examination accounted. In the past five years, there were 21 105 (65.43%) residents participated in regular physical examination and 11 148 (34.56%) participated in non-scheduled one, respectively. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with unmarried and western region residents, divorced, middle and eastern region residents had a stronger consciousness to participate in the regular physical examination (P<0.05). Compare with residents with annual household income less than 20 000 CNY in 2014, cancer risk assessment/screening intervention population, and self-assessment with cancer risk, residents with annual household income between 20 000 CNY and 59 000 CNY in 2014, occupational population, community residents, cancer patients, self-reported cancer-free risk, and self-assessment with unclear judgement of cancer risk were less likely to participate in the regular physical examination (all P values <0.05). Conclusion From 2015 to 2017, the Chinese urban residents had a acceptable consciousness of the cancer early detection. The marital status, annual household income, population group and self-assessment of cancer risk were related to the consciousness of the cancer early detection of people who had not participated in the regular physical examination in the past five years.
