Objective:To explore the screening value of platelet parameters from blood cell analysis for MYH9-related disorders(MYH9-RD).Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted with 38 patients diagnosed with MYH9-RD at Shenzhen Children's Hospital from May 1, 2016, to August 31, 2024, including 24 males and 14 females; the median age was 11.5 (3.8, 35) years; categorized by gene mutation location into "head region" ( n=8 ) and "tail region" ( n=30); and by clinical manifestations into " isolated hematological manifestations" ( n=16) and "hematological manifestations with extra-hematological involvement"( n=22). The control groups included 39 cases of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), 38 cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and 40 healthy individuals. Platelet-related parameters were detected by hematology analyzer, and platelet counts and sizes were confirmed by manually counting and microscopic observation. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare platelet parameters between MYH9-RD and control groups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to assess the diagnostic efficacy of platelet parameters for MYH9-RD. Results:In MYH9-RD patients the median value of mean platelet volume (MPV) was 13.4 (11.2, 14.7) fl, immature platelet fraction (IPF) was 52.7% (43.5%, 58.0%), platelet large cell ratio(PLCR) was 57.6 %(45.0%, 62.9%), and microscopic large platelet ratio (PLCR-M) was 30.0% (25.0%, 30.0%).And those values weresignificantly higher than in ITP, ALL, and healthy controls (all P<0.05). Patients with MYH9 gene "head region" mutations had a lower platelet count [24.5 (15.0, 47.5)×10 9/L]than those with "tail region" mutations [69.0 (49.5, 86.3) ×10 9/L]( Z=-3.493, P<0.001), but a higher IPF ( t=2.024, P=0.044).Patients with "extra-hematological involvement had a lower platelet count than those with "isolated hematological manifestations" ( t=-2.015, P=0.043). The optimal cutoff value for diagnosing MYH9-RD with IPF was 26.7%, with a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 98.7%; the area under the curve was 0.999 (95% CI 0.995-1.000), which was superior toMPV, PLCR and PLCR-M parameters. Conclusion:IPF is superior to other platelet parameters sush as MPV,showing high diagnostic efficacy in distinguishing MYH9-RD from ITP and ALL. It can be used as a simple and effective indicator for early screening of MYH9-RD.

This study elaborates on the teaching reform of the "Five-year Traditional Chinese Medicine Talent Training Program for Traditional Chinese Medicine (Orthopedics Direction)" implemented by Department of Orthopedics in Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, including curriculum reform (restructuring courses, emphasizing Lingnan characteristics, and combining medical sciences with martial arts) and teaching model reform (increasing mentorship and learning from teachers, arranging one mentor for every two students, and assigning one teaching team leader for every 5-6 groups). A questionnaire survey conducted among the students of the classes 2022 and 2023 in the five-year TCM talent training program for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) majors (orthopedics direction) showed that 86.25% (69/80) of the students were satisfied with the mentorship model of "arranging one mentor for every two students", and 87.50% (70/80) of the students agreed that "the assignment of a teaching team leader can help to control teaching intensity". In terms of restructuring the curriculum system, 90.00% (72/80) of the students believed that the establishment of characteristic teaching courses could help to stimulate the enthusiasm for exploring TCM sciences, and 88.75% (71/80) of the students recognized the unique integration of textbooks, believing that it could help to understand the Lingnan school of Orthopedics. In terms of professional qualities, 90.00% (72/80) of the students agreed that the learning model of "systematic education+learning from teachers" could significantly help with the integration of knowledge, and 88.75% (71/80) of the students suggested that this model could stimulate the interest in specialized knowledge fields and motivate students to learn independently. In terms of apprenticeships with teachers, 85.00% (68/80) of the students reported that they could receive answers from teachers when asking questions, and 93.75% (75/80) of the students believed that early apprenticeship with a teacher was necessary. Some students still had a lack of understanding of learning TCM Qigong methods and believed that continuous practice took up too much personal time, failing to cultivate a good thinking of "the combination of medical sciences and martial arts", and they also believed that there were still limited opportunities for practice. The results show that the teaching model of "systematic education+learning from teachers" helps to improve the degree of satisfaction among students and cultivate clinical skills and professional qualities.

Objective:To explore whether the action research on the pre-service training evaluation system of "Internet + TCM Nursing" guided by CIPP (context, input, process and product) and Kirkpatrick Model can improve the training effect of nursing staff under the background of internet and TCM nursing service.Methods:Taking 211 nurses of "Internet + TCM Nursing" in Guangdong Provincial Hospital of TCM from 2019 to 2020 as the research objects, action teams were made, and the data were collected and analyzed by various methods. According to the collected data, the action teams constructed the training scheme of "Internet + TCM Nursing", the compilation requirements of "internet + TCM Nursing", the case optimization scheme of "internet + TCM Nursing" process, and the evaluation model of "internet + TCM Nursing". After the training, the nurses' knowledge, skills and related attitudes, the general reaction and feelings to the training programs, and the evaluation of nurses' work performance by the competent leaders, medical staff and clients were compared by comparing their scores and issuing self-made questionnaires. SPSS 20.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:The results showed that the theoretical scores of nurses after training were (85.16±6.22) points, and the case assessment scores after training [(81.22±7.03) points] were higher than the previous theoretical scores [(61.23±12.90) points] and the case assessment scores [(59.54±14.41) points], with statistical significance ( P<0.001). The results of self-made questionnaire showed that there were significant differences in theoretical knowledge, skills and related attitudes among nurses after training ( P<0.001). In the process of training, there were statistically significant differences in training content, teacher training, training implementation and training guarantee at the end of training ( P<0.001). After training, there were significant differences in the evaluation of nurses' job performance by leaders in charge, medical staff and clients improved in knowledge and skills, professional ethics, working process and learning ability, and the improvement rate ( P<0.001). Conclusion:Action research is an effective research method to continuously improve nursing training. The optimization scheme of "internet + TCM Nursing" nurses based on CIPP and Kirkpatrick Model through action research can effectively improve the training effect.

Objective To investigate the changes of regulatory T cells (Treg) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after ultrasound- guided percutaneous cool- tip radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and to discuss its influence on the prognosis. Methods A total of 30 patients with HCC were enrolled in this study. The percentage of Treg in peripheral blood was estimated with flow cytometry before RFA and one, 4, 7 and 12 months after RFA. During the follow-up period, the therapeutic effects were evaluated by contrast enhanced sonography or contrast enhanced CT scanning. By using the methods of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Kaplan-Meier survival function, the correlation of Treg dynamic changes with the progression-free survival time was analyzed. Results One month after RTA, the tumor response (TR) rate in the 30 patients was 93.3% (28/30), the tumor progression (TP) rate was 6.67%(2/30). The percentage of Treg before RFA was (9.42 ± 1.16)%, which decreased to (6.55 ± 0.97)% one month after RFA, the difference was statistically significant (t = 15.325, P <0.001). Twelve months after RFA, TR rate became 33.3%(10/30), and TP rate became 66.7%(20/30). The preoperative percentage of Treg of TR group was (8.75 ± 0.72)%, which was significantly lower than that of TP group (9.76 ± 1.20)%, the difference was statistically significant (t=-2.448, P=0.021). ROC curves indicated that the optimal cut-off value of Treg nadir was 4.82%, the sensitivity was 90.0% and the specificity was 60.0%. The optimal cut-off time to reach Treg nadir was 5.5 months, the sensitivity was 70.0% and the specificity was 85.0%. Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that after RFA the progression-free survival rate (PFS) of patients with Treg nadir ≤ 4.82% was significantly higher than that of patients with Treg nadir>4.82%. PFS of patients with reaching Treg nadir≥5.5 months was significantly higher than that of patients with reaching Treg nadir<5.5 months. Log-rank test results were字2=5.207, P=0.023; 字2=22.079, P < 0.001, respectively. Conclusion Percutaneous cool-tip radiofrequency ablation can decrease the percentage of Treg cells. Besides, Treg nadir and the time reaching Treg nadir can reflect the prognosis of HCC patients after RFA to a certain extent.
