Objective To assess the performance of the methylation‐sensitive high‐resolution melting curve analysis (MS‐HRM analysis) on the detection of the methylation in stool DNA for colorectal cancer screening .Methods Eighty‐two qualified stool samples were collected from 27 patients with colorectal cancer patients (CRC group) ,25 patients with advanced adenomas (AA group) ,and 30 healthy people (control group) .The methylation status of vimentin gene in all of the stool samples was detected by the MS‐HRM analysis on the LightCycler 480 platform .The fecal occult blood test (FOBT) was also used for the same samples . Results The positive rates of the MS‐HRM assay in the CRC group ,AA group ,and control group were 81 .5% (22/27) ,80 .0%(20/25) ,and 6 .7% (2/30) respectively .The positive rates of FOBT in the three groups were 37 .0% (10/27) ,12 .0% (3/25) and 3 .3% (1/30) respectively .The diagnostic sensitivity of the MS‐HRM assay for colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas (80 .8% , 42/52) was significantly higher than that of FOBT (25 .0% ,13/52)(P<0 .05) .No significant difference was found in the diagnos‐tic specificity between the MS‐HRM assay (93 .3% ,28/30) and the FOBT (96 .7% ,29/30) (P>0 .05) .Conclusion MS‐HRM performs better than FOBT and has great application potential in the detection of stool DNA methylation for colorectal cancer screening .

Objective:To observe the effect of a new modified double-eyelid operation.Methods:From February 2018 to January 2021, modified tarsal plate-orbicularis oculi muscle-orbital septum (TMS) suture was performed in 193 double-eyelid operation in the plastic surgery department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital, including 14 males and 179 females. The patients aged from 18 to 45 years with an average of (22.3±4.2) years. The patients were followed up for 6-24 months to observe the morphology of the double eyelid fold and complications.Results:The 193 patients were included. The double eyelid lines of 173 patients were smooth, natural, durable and the scar was shallow; both doctors and patients were satisfied. There were no obvious complications after the operation. The double eyelid line became shallow or disappeared in 11 patients, and the double eyelid asymmetry occurred in 7 patients after the operation. However, the folds were symmetrical and natural after secondary operation, and both doctors and patients were satisfied.Conclusions:TMS suture not only establishes a firm adhesion, but also effectively transmits the force of the levator aponeurosis with significant advantages. After the operation, the double eyelid line is smooth, natural and stable. Both doctors and patients are highly satisfied. It is an improved double eyelid procedure worthy of clinical promotion.

Post-traumatic tetanus is the main type of non-neonatal tetanus. To reduce the incidence and mortality rate of tetanus and guide the primary medical institutions to prevent and control tetanus after trauma, National Immunization Planning Technical Working Group of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention has compiled this document in the reference with Position Paper by World Health Organization, the latest research progress from home and abroad. The guidelines focus on the basic procedures for the prevention and disposition of post-traumatic tetanus, the application of tetanus vaccines and immune preparation, and the pre-exposure immunization in high-risk populations of trauma.
