Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Specialty English of Medical Laboratory is a comprehensive and overlapping discipline and plays a major role in multiple medical courses, including Life Science, Clinical Medicine and Laboratory Medicine.However, its teaching practices are limited due to the extensive contents, scattered basic knowledge points, complexities of language learning processes and high demanding of sophisticated teaching skills.Since internet technology′s breakout and the web-based education expanding in the past decade, personalized flipped classroom has drawn considerable attention in the education field and became a hop-spot in teaching practice system.In the present study, the concepts of flipped classroom and basic characteristics of Specialty English of Medical Laboratory were elaborated, as well as the reconstructing teaching processes, exploring the concrete plan for teachers and students in undergraduate program.

Through the expert questionnaire (Delphi Indagate) to form Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Healthy Lifestyle Guiding Principles.We conducted two rounds of surveys of TCM experts in the field of preventive health care on the basis of previous literature research.This study was aimed to form the framework in order to entry to the TCM Healthy Life-style Guiding Principles.The results showed that the positive coefficient of experts in two rounds of investigation were 84.31％ and 100％,respectively.The authoritative decree were both more than 0.7.The expert opinion score mean median was 9.21 and 9.085.Median mean values were 7.965 and 7.925.The median scores of full marks were higher than 65.12％ and 66.67％.The minimum coefficients of variation were 0.11 and 0.10.It was concluded that in the investigation and study,the enthusiasm of the experts,professional standards and credibility were high.Expert opinion is more concentrated.Expert opinion is well coordinated and gradually converges through two rounds of surveys.Through the Delphi indagate,the basic framework and items of TCM guiding principles of healthy lifestyle were established,which laid the foundation for further standardizing the guiding principles of TCM in healthy lifestyle.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the phenotype-genotype association of isodicentromere Y chromosome by analysis of two female patients carrying the chromosome with sexual development disorders.

METHODSThe karyotypes of the two patients were determined by application of conventional G banding of peripheral blood samples and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). PCR was applied to detect the presence of SRY gene.

RESULTSConventional karyotype analysis showed case 1 to be a mosaic: mos.45,X[38]/46,X,+mar[151]/47,XY,+mar[5]/47,X,+mar × 2[2]/46,XY[4], FISH showed that 12 different cell lines were presented in the karyotype of case 1 and partial cell lines with SRY gene, the marker is an isodicentromere Y chromosome [idic(Y)(p)]. No mutation was found in the SRY gene. The karyotype of case 2 was mos.45,X[25]/46,X,+mar[35]. FISH showed the marker to be an idic(Y)(p) without the SRY gene.

CONCLUSIONThe karyotype of patients carrying idic(Y)(p) seems unstable, and female patients have the characteristics of short stature and secondary sexual hypoplasia. Karyotype analysis combined with FISH analysis can accurately determine the breakpoint of idic(Y) and identify the types of complex mosaic, which may facilitate genetic counseling and prognosis.

OBJECTIVETo assess the association of PEX10 gene and 1p36 copy number variations in 1p36 region with concurrent epilepsy through analyzing 3 cases.

METHODSThe karyotypes of 3 patients were determined by high resolution chromosome banding, multiplex ligation dependent probe amplification (MLPA), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) combined with single nucleotide polymorphism array (SNP) technology. Real-time PCR was carried out to determine the mRNA levels of PEX10 gene in peripheral blood of the patients.

RESULTSNo abnormality was found upon high resolution karyotyping. MLPA analysis showed that all of the 3 patients had a copy number variation of subtelomeric region in the short arm of chromosome 1, which was confirmed by FISH and SNP chip analyses. Case 1 and case 2 both had an epilepsy phenotype, and their copy number variations have encompassed the PEX10 gene. On the other hand, case 3 has absent epilepsy, and its PEX10 gene copy number was normal. Family investigation confirmed that the chromosome abnormalities in all of the 3 cases were of de novo type. Compared with healthy controls, real-time PCR showed that mRNA of the PEX10 gene was increased in case 1 but decreased in case 2.

CONCLUSIONThe abnormal expression of PEX10 gene resulting from copy number variations of 1p36 region may be associated with the epilepsy phenotype.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of intranasal steroid on nasal mucosa in rat model of allergic rhinitis (AR). METHOD: Thirty-six SD rats were randomly divided into three groups (each included 12 rats): the intranasal steroid group(group A),the allergic rhinitis group(group B) and the normal control group(group C). AR model was reproduced by ovalbumin in group A and B. The control group was allergized by NS instead of ovalbumin. Group A was used steroid spray in nasal and Group B and C was used normal saline. Then ,after the last provocation,the allergic symptoms were evaluated,the number of eosinophil (EOS) of the rats' nasal mucosa was counted under hematoxylineosin staining and the goblet cells was counted under alcian blue-periodic acid-Schiff staining. The morphological changes of the rats' nasal mucosa were observed by scanning electron microscope. RESULT: Compared with group B,the inhibition of nasal symptoms was found after used of steroid spray in group A. The EOS and the goblet cells in group A was significantly different with that in Group B (P < 0.05), but no significant differences compared with group C (P > 0.05). Observed by scanning electron microscope, the cilia of the epithelium in group B were significantly lodging, disoriented, winding and secreting,while the cilia of the epithelium in Group A and C had similar appearance. CONCLUSION Intranasal steroid spray can relieve symptoms and inflammatory conditions of nasal mucosa in allergic rhinitis, and can repair injured nasal mucosa cilia.
