Objective:To investigate the correlation between the annual professional proficiency test results and the theoretical examination score of completion assessment in standardized residency training, as well as the value of the annual professional proficiency test results in predicting whether a resident passes the theoretical examination of completion assessment.Methods:The residents who participated in the annual professional proficiency test of residency training in Affiliated Hospital 2 of Nantong University in 2019-2021 and the completion assessment of residency training in 2020-2022 were selected as subjects, and related data were collected, including sex, education background, personnel type, training specialty, the results of annual professional proficiency test, and the theoretical examination score of completion assessment. According to whether the resident passed the theoretical examination of completion assessment, they were divided into passed group and failed group. SPSS 19.0 was used to perform the chi-square test, the independent samples t-test, and the binary logistic regression analysis; the Pearson correlation coefficient was used for correlation analysis; the sensitivity analysis was represented by ROC curve. Results:Compared with the residents who passed the theoretical examination of completion assessment, the residents who did not pass the examination had a significant reduction in the proportion of the residents from our hospital and a significant increase in the proportion of the residents commissioned by foreign institutions ( χ 2=7.00, P=0.008). The passed group had a significantly higher national percentile of annual professional proficiency test score than the failed group (43.46%±26.61% vs. 23.40%±18.71%, t=6.02, P<0.001). The national percentile of annual professional proficiency test score was positively correlated with the theoretical examination score of completion assessment ( r=0.43, P<0.05). The source of residents commissioned by foreign institutions and the low percentile of annual professional proficiency test score were independent risk factors for failing the theoretical examination of completion assessment ( P=0.020 and P<0.001). The national percentile of annual professional proficiency test score had an area under the ROC curve of 0.73 (95% CI: 0.65-0.80) in predicting the outcome of theoretical examination and had a certain predictive value with a cut-off value of 15.1%. Conclusions:In addition to strengthening homogenization and professional base management for residency training, it is necessary to make full use of the results of annual professional proficiency test in standardized residency training and timely check the professional knowledge of the residents whose a national percentile of <15.1%, so as to effectively improve the pass rate of theoretical examination and the quality of training.

The polyfoliate perforator flap is a new type of flap that was developed on the basis of the traditional polyfoliate myocutaneous flap, polyfoliate fascial flap and perforator flap. It overturns the traditional idea that the deep fascial vascular network is the fundamental for a survival of the flap, and enables the flaps to achieve the best profile and function of the recipient areas with minimal damage to the donor area. In order to improve the understanding of the polyfoliate perforator flap and further standardise its clinical application, this paper forms a consensus on the definition, classification, indications, operative points and precautions of the polyfoliate perforator flap, so as to provide references in diagnosis and treatment process and practical application for the surgeons.

Objective:To explore any changes in the electromyographic (EMG) signals from the deep lumbar multifidus (DM) of patients with chronic low back pain (cLBP).Methods:Twenty-five cLBP patients formed the cLBP group, while twenty-eight healthy counterparts similar in sex, age and education background were chosen as the control group. EMG signals were recorded during maximum isometric voluntary contraction of the DM. Two-way repeated measures analysis of variance was applied to compare the two groups′ signals′ Lempel-Ziv (LZ) complexity values at rest and during the maximum strength, strength endurance and relaxation stages of contraction. Pearson correlation coefficients were computed relating the LZ complexity to pain duration and intensity, as well as to Oswestry disability index (ODI) values in the cLBP group.Results:The cLBP patients reported a mean symptom duration of 5.96±4.69 years, with an average VAS score of 4.00±1.04 and ODI of 17.12±10.49. They reported greater pain intensity during needle insertions, needle removal, muscle contraction and relaxation than the healthy controls. There were significant differences in LZ complexity among the four stages of contraction with all of the subjects. The LZ complexity was significantly lower in the maximum strength and strength endurance states, but higher in the relaxation after contraction states in the cLBP group. Pain duration was negatively correlated with the nonlinear index of DM during contraction.Conclusion:Continuous pain stimulation will affect the coordinated control of the deep multifidus muscle, leading to decreased control of core muscles via the central nervous system. That provides insight into the mechanisms underlying activation and coordinated control during chronic pain.

Objective:To survey the cognition of general practice residency training and the willingness of teaching among specialists.Methods:A questionnaire survey was conducted among 221 specialists from 24 departments in Nantong First People's Hospital from May 2021 to June 2021 to investigate the their cognition of general practice residency training program and the teaching willingness.Results:Total 221 questionnaires were distributed and 185 valid ones were retrieved with a response rate of 83.70%. The results showed that 49 specialists (26.49%) well knew the national general practice training policy, 70 (37.84%) knew the most, 52 (28.11%) knew basically, 11 (5.95%) knew little, and 3 (1.62%) did not know at all. Meanwhile, 44 specialists (23.78%) well knew the hospital incentive policies about general practice education, 62 (33.51%) knew the most, 57 (30.81%) knew basically, 18 (9.73%) knew little, and 4 (2.16%) did not know at all. Whether they holding the teaching certificate of general practice was significantly associated with the cognition of national general practice training policy (χ2=14.28, P=0.003) and with their knowledge of residency training program (χ2=16.79, P=0.001), but not associated with knowing the hospital-level incentive policy (χ2=8.18, P=0.075). A total of 170 (91.89%) participants were willing to be clinical teachers of general practice. The reasons for the willingness of teaching were as following: learning more from the teaching in 161 participants (94.71%), expanding sources of patients from rural areas in 102 (60.00%), facilitating promotion in 77 (45.29%), and others in 30 (17.60%). Among 62 specialists holding teaching certificate, 60 (96.77%) were willing to teach general practice residents; while among 123 specialists without teaching certificate, 110 (89.43%) were willing to teach (χ2=4.92, P=0.027). In all hospital incentive policies, promotion of professional titles was most attractive one (82, 44.32%), followed by performance appraisal (63, 34.05%), priority for in-service training (25, 13.51%), and appraisal for excellence award (15, 8.11%). Conclusions:Strengthening trainings for general practice the faculty is helpful to improve their cognition of the general practice residency training programs. And rational hospital incentive policies can enhance the willingness of specialists to teach general practice residency.

Objective:To investigate the expressions of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) CASC11 and proto-oncogene c-myc in colorectal cancer and their correlation with recurrence and metastasis.Methods:The cancer tissues and paracancerous tissues of 90 colorectal cancer patients in Tangshan Union Medical College Hospital of Hebei Province from February 2016 to July 2018 were collected. Normal colon epithelial cell lines CCD841 and colorectal cancer cell lines SW480, SW620, HCT116, HT29, DLD-1 were cultured in vitro. Separated by the average value of relative expression level of CASC11 or c-myc mRNA in cancer tissues, patients were divided into the high expression and low expression of CASC11 or c-myc. The protein expressions of CASC11 and c-myc mRNA and c-myc were detected by using real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. Cell lines with the highest protein expressions of CASC11, c-myc mRNA and c-myc were used to do the subsequent experiments. The association of the expression levels of CASC11 and c-myc mRNA with the clinicopathological features was analyzed. Pearson correlation test was used to analyze the relationship between CASC11 and c-myc mRNA of cancer tissues. JASPAR software was used to analyze whether there were binding sites of CASC11 and c-myc gene. The wild-type and mutant-type CASC11 recombinant plasmids were constructed, and the relationship between c-myc and CASC11 was confirmed by using dual luciferase reporter gene assay. Cell lines with the highest expressions of CASC11 and c-myc were transfected with c-myc interference sequence plasmid (Sh-c-myc group) or the negative control sequence plasmid (Sh-NC group), and the conventional cultured blank control group (NC group). The proliferation of cells was detected by using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method, the invasion and migration abilities of cells were detected by using Tanswell test, and the protein expressions of CASC11, c-myc mRNA and c-myc in cells of all groups were detected by using qRT-PCR and Western blot.Results:The protein expression levels of CASC11, c-myc mRNA and c-myc protein in cancer tissues were increased compared with those in paracancerous tissues, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Compared with CCD841 cells, the protein expression levels of CASC11, c-myc mRNA and c-myc in all colorectal cancer cell lines were increased, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05); the highest protein expressions of CASC11, c-myc mRNA and c-myc were found in SW480 cell lines which were used to do the subsequent experiments. Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between CASC11 mRNA and c-myc mRNA in cancer tissues ( r = 0.494, P < 0.05). The high expression rate of CASC11 and c-myc mRNA in cancer tissues for patients with lymph node metastasis was higher than that for those without lymph node metastasis [73.7% (28/38) vs. 26.9% (14/52), 84.2% (32/38) vs. 23.1% (12/52)], the high expression rate of CASC11 and c-myc mRNA in cancer tissues for patients with TNM stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ was higher than that for those with TNM stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ [76.0% (38/50) vs. 10.0% (4/40), 72.0% (36/50) vs. 20.0% (8/40)], and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). JASPAR software showed that the binding sites were detected in CASC11 promoter region and c-myc gene; dual luciferase reporter gene assay results showed that the relative activity of SW480 cells co-transfected with Sh-c-myc and wild-type CASC11 plasmid was lower compared with that of SW480 cells co-transfected with Sh-NC and wild-type CASC11 plasmid ( P < 0.05). Compared with NC group and Sh-NC group, the expression level of CASC11 mRNA, the number of invasive and migratory cells of SW480 cells in Sh-c-myc group were decreased, while cell proliferation inhibition rate was increased, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:CASC11 and c-myc mRNA are highly expressed in colorectal cancer tissues and cell lines, and binding sites can be detected in CASC11 promoter region and c-myc gene. The expressions of both have a correlation, and the down regulation of c-myc can inhibit the invasion and migration of colorectal cancer cells by inhibiting the expression of CASC11.

Objective To find out the association between the indicators(pulse concussion lung function test index) of bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) with fractional concentration of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) at different control periods among preschool asthmatic children.Methods Totally 74 asthmatic children in the pediatric department of our hospital from April 2015 to February 2017 were enrolled in this study,and 25 children undergoing the lung function and FeNO examination served as the controls,aged 3-5 years old.The cases were divided into three groups according to the standard in 2016 version of the Prevention and Treament Guide of Children Bronchial Asthma:asthma control group(n =26),asthma non-control;group(n =48) and control group (n=25).All data of FeNO,resistance of the respiratory system at 5 Hz(R5),resistance of the respiratory system at 5 Hz (R20),difference of R5 and R20(R5-20),reactance area (AX),reactance of the respiratory system at 5 Hz (X5) and resonant frequency of reactance (Fres) were collected.The FeNO,pulse concussion lung function test value and their association were analyzed.Results (1) The FeNO value of asthma the non-control group was significantly higher than that of the asthma control group and the control group,which were 34.00 ± 18.17,20.23± 11.07 and 28.00± 17.30 respectively.The AX detection value of the asthma non-control group was significantly higher than that of the control group(37.29 ± 15.27 vs.30.17 ± 9.50,P＜0.05).(2)R20 had weak correlation with FeNO in the control group(P＜0.05),while R20 had no correlation with FeNO in the non-control group and control group (P＞0.05).FeNO had no obvious correlation with R5,R520,AX,X5 and Fres in the asthma non-control group,asthma control group and control group(P＞0.05).Conclusion In preschool children with asthma,FeNO can reflect the airway eosinophilic inflammation control,and does not reflect the airway hyperresponsiveness.Thereforeit ie needed to combined with FeNO and IOS indicators (airway hyperresponsiveness index AX,etc.),which can more precisely judge whether asthma being controlled.
