Objective:To investigate HLA DQA1 alleles distribution in the Yichu of Yangbi county, Yunnan province, compared with other Chinese group Methods:PCR RFLP.Results: Of 8 DQA1 alleles studied, DQA1*0301 (allele frequency 31 63%) is the most common allele in this Yichu, and DQA1*0401 (1 02%) is the rarest Chi square test shows that Yangbi Yichu has no significant difference with six northern Han groups, Man, Singaporean and Uygurs of Xinjiang In contrast, Buyi, Dai and Taiwanese is much more complicated with a significant difference from other groups A similar observation was found in Guangdong Han and Guangxi Zhuang Similar to Kazak, Uygurs showed no significant difference with some of northern Han groups Tibetans have no significant difference with Kazaks and Singaporean Conclusion: DQA1 complexity of southern ethnic group is probably result of mutilple origin or stress of different environment Yangbi Yi ethnic group has characteristic of Northern group

OBJECTIVETo assess the association of a single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) in tumor suppressor gene P53 with the risk of endometriosis (EM) in Han Chinese women.
METHODSFor 460 EM patients, 113 patients with endometrial carcinoma and 530 matched unrelated controls, a rs1042522(C/G) SNP of the P53 gene was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-single strand polymorphism (PCR-SSP) and DNA sequencing.
RESULTSA significant difference has been detected in the distribution of rs1042522 alleles and genotypes between the EM patients and controls (P< 0.01). Allele G has increased the risk of EM by 1.209 times, while allele C has reduced this risk by 0.837 times. Compared with GG genotype, GC and CC genotypes have both increased the risk for EM (OR=2.073, 95%CI: 1.521-2.820, and OR=1.930, 95%CI: 1.363-2.733, respectively). Significant differences were also detected in the distribution of rs1042522 alleles and genotypes between endometrial carcinoma patients and controls (P< 0.01). Allele G has increased the risk to endometrial carcinoma by 1.311 times, while allele C has reduced this risk by 0.757 times. Compared with GG genotypes, individuals with GC and CC genotypes are more likely to be affected with endometrial carcinoma (OR=2.778, 95%CI: 1.585-4.870, and OR=2.864, 95%CI: 1.557-5.263, respectively).
CONCLUSIONOur study has suggested a significant association between the rs1042522(G/C) polymorphism and susceptibility to EM in Han Chinese women. The mechanism of EM is similar to carcinoma from genetics point of view.

Under the trend of increasing aging, integrated elderly care and medical services is an important measure to optimize the supply of elderly care services and promote the good death of the elderly. Using the cooperative production theory and the classical grounded theory, a qualitative analysis was conducted on 38 cases of elderly palliative care and 25 cases of hospital-based palliative care under the integrated elderly care and medical services model from a hospital in Nanning City using Nvivo 20.0 software. This paper found that the integrated elderly care and medical services mode emphasized the deep integration of medical and elderly care services by integrating resources and improving service efficiency, to achieve the basic experience of comprehensive health care for the elderly. The promotion of these experiences has a positive significance for building a multi-agent cooperative production system, strengthening personnel training, perfecting the performance distribution mechanism, and further promoting the development of the national palliative care pilot.
