Objective To discuss the probability of siblings identification by autosomal short tandem repeat (STR). Methods 150 pairs of full siblings and 150 pairs of unrelated individuals were genotyped by the 15 STR loci of Power Plex?6 system. Paternity index of full siblings (Pips) and paternity probability of full siblings (WFS) were calculated with the method of ITO. WFS and allelic matching of the two groups were compared, and three sorts of allelic matching in each pair were tested by chi-square test. Results Wps of 100 pairs of siblings (66.67%) were more than 0.9995; WFS of unrelated individuals were less than 0.8, and that of 100 pairs (66.67%) were less than 0.27. The locus number of the entire-same ranged from 1 to 10, averaged 5.49 in siblings, while in unrelated individuals ranged from 0 to 5 and averaged 1.33; that of the entire-different ranged from 0 to 6, averaged 1.66 in siblings but ranged from 2 to 11 and averaged 6.57 in unrelated individuals; that of the half-same ranged from 3 to 13, averaged 7.85 in siblings, and ranged from 1 to 13, averaged 7.11 in unrelated individuals. By chi-square test, there was significant difference (P0.05) in the half-same between the two groups. Conclusion It is effective to identify siblings by Power-Plex?6 system. Testing of 15 STR loci of PowerPlex?6 system, it suggested that the pair were unrelated individuals when the locus number of the entirely-different is not less than 6 or that of the entirely-same is zero, and that the pair were siblings when the locus number of entirely-different is not more than 1 or that of the entirely-same is not less than 6.

Objective :
To investigate the willingness to receive HIV testing in primary health service institutions (PHSIs) among young students in Wuhan City, so as to provide the evidence for improving the detection of HIV testing among young students.
Methods:
Fifteen PHSIs were sampled using a stratified random sampling method in 14 districts of Wuhan City, and school students at ages of 15 to 24 years were sampled from each district using a convenience sampling method. Participants' demographics, awareness of AIDS-related knowledge, HIV testing and willingness to receive HIV testing were collected using questionnaires, and factors affecting the willingness to receive HIV testing in PHSIs were identified among school students using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results :
A total of 301 questionnaires were allocated, and 299 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 99.34%. The respondents included 143 men (47.83%) and 156 women (52.17%), and had a mean age of (19.36±2.40) years; there were 223 respondents with an educational level of diploma and above (74.58%). The awareness of AIDS-related knowledge was 71.57% among the respondents, and 144 respondents had received AIDS-related health education in PHSIs (48.16%). There were 34 respondents that had received HIV testing (11.37%) and 203 respondents that were willing to receive HIV testing in PHSIs (67.89%). The respondents that were unwilling to receive HIV testing in PHSIs were mainly attributed to considering to be unlikely to get HIV infections (82.29%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that school students who knew AIDS-related knowledge (OR=2.797, 95%CI: 1.583-4.941), knew free HIV counseling and testing services in PHSIs (OR=2.070, 95%CI: 1.123-3.814), and had received AIDS-related health education in PHSIs (OR=2.814, 95%CI: 1.573-5.032) were more willing to receive HIV testing in PHSIs.
Conclusions
There were 67.89% of school students that were willing to receive HIV testing in PHSIs in Wuhan City, and the willingness to receive HIV testing was correlated with the awareness of risk of HIV infections, and awareness and experience of AIDS control services in PHSIs.

【Objective】 To investigate the association of depressive symptoms with the predicted risk of coronary heart disease in middle-aged and elderly Chinese based on a large community study. 【Methods】 A total of 2532 cases in the group without depression and 2758 cases in the group with depression were included. We compared the two groups in general demographics, information related to coronary heart disease risk, and physical function and ability to perform daily living. We also analyzed the factors associated with coronary heart disease risk by linear regression. 【Results】 ① Demographic information: The group with depression had a higher mean age, a higher proportion of women, more people with poor marital status, and a higher number of comorbid chronic diseases compared with the group without depression (all P<0.05). ② Risk indicators related to coronary heart disease: The group with depression had more people with diabetes and a significantly higher systolic blood pressure compared with the group without depression (P<0.05). The two groups did not significantly differ in the proportion of smokers, diastolic blood pressure, LDL-C, or HDL-C (all P>0.05). The risk of coronary heart disease was significantly higher in the group with depression than in the group without depression (P<0.05). ③ Physical function and ability of daily living: The physical function score, physical self-care score, and instrumental daily living ability were significantly higher in the group with depression than in the group without depression (all P<0.001). ④ Linear regression showed that except for gender, age, marital status, comorbid diabetes, smoking, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, HDL-C and LDL-C were associated with risk of coronary heart disease (P<0.05); CESD was the only factor associated with the risk of coronary heart disease [B=0.019, 95% CI: (0.015, 0.032), P=0.032]. 【Conclusion】 The risk of coronary heart disease is higher in middle-aged and elderly people with depressive symptoms than in those without depressive symptoms. Having depressive symptoms is one of the risk factors for coronary heart disease in middle-aged and elderly people.

Objective To systematically evaluate the effects of telemedicine on the management of warfarin therapy. Methods We searched PubMed, EMbase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Database (from inception to February 2020) and conducted retrospective literature searching to identify studies about the management of warfarin using telemedicine intervention techniques. R language software was used to evaluate the efficacy and safety of telemedicine on warfarin management. Results A total of 7 239 articles were retrieved, and 12 articles were finally included according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, totaling 8 112 patients, including 3 726 patients in the intervention group and 4 386 patients in the control group. The results of meta-analysis showed that there was a statistical difference in the accurate international normalized ratio (INR) treatment target range time ratio between the intervention group and the control group (MD=6.52, 95%CI 2.13 to 10.92, P<0.01, I2=89%). The incidence of bleeding events (RR=0.61, 95%CI 0.46 to 0.81, P=0.97, I2=0%) and the incidence of thromboembolic events (RR=0.50, 95%CI 0.29 to 0.85, P=0.63, I2=0%) were not statistically different between the two groups. Conclusion Existing evidence indicates that telemedicine management has a benefit in anticoagulant efficacy compared with conventional anticoagulant management in patients with thrombotic diseases, but there is no statistical difference in safety. Limited by the quantity and quality of the included studies, the above conclusion needs to be verified by more high-quality studies.
