Clustered regular interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) system has been widely used in recent years. Compared with traditional genome editing technology, CRISPR/Cas system has notable advantages, including high editing efficiency, high specificity, low cost and the convenience for manipulation. Type Ⅱ and Ⅴ CRISPR/Cas system only requires a single Cas9 protein or a single Cpf1 protein as effector nucleases for cutting double-stranded DNA, developed as genome editing tools. At present, CRISPR/Cas9 technology has been successfully applied to the genome editing of eukaryotes such as zebrafish, mice and human cells, whereas limited progress has been made in the genome editing of bacteria. In our review, we describe CRISPR/Cas system, its mechanism and summarize the optimization and progress of genome editing in bacteria.

In this study, the necessity of professional master's degree training in clinical pharmacy was analyzed by means of literature research and practice summary, and the existing problems in current professional curriculum, tutor team and practice teaching were discussed. In view of the existing problems, this paper puts forward that medical colleges and universities should give full play to their medical resources, draw lessons from the talents training experience of clinical pharmacists training base, adopt measures such as optimizing curriculum system, selecting tutors, attaching importance to practical teaching, so as to improve the quality of postgraduate training in clinical pharmacy, train high-level clinical pharmacists, and promote the development of clinical pharmacy in China.

In order to cultivate clinical pharmacy undergraduates to have better quality, Chongqing Medical University collaborated with The University of Chicago and University of Cincinnati in the reform of the course of pharmacotherapeutics. We build pharmacotherapeutics series curriculum with the center of disease, construct department of clinical pharmacy for transnational departments, build course leader and teaching team of pharmacotherapeutics series curriculum , compile teaching program and its material of pharmacotherapeutics series curriculum, build pharmacotherapeutics series curriculum and teaching model in line with the current direction of China's education system of clinical pharmacy training, reform teaching methods, and strengthen clinical pharmacy practice and community clinical pharmacy education.

Objective To develop a risk index scoring for predicting perioperative mortality risk in aged patients undergoing non-neurologic and non-cardiovascular surgery.Methods A total of 11 144 inpatients aged ＞65 years old undergoing non-neurologic and non-cardiovascular surgery in the People's Hospital of Peking University from December 2012 to March 2016 were selected and divided into the death group and survival group.The following variables were compared between the 2 groups:general data,comorbidities,preoperative laboratory tests and operation anesthesia.A multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed on the risk factors for perioperative death in this group.The Bootstrapping method was performed for conducting internal validation.The parameters weighing of risk index scoring was established by correcting the partial regression coefficient of equation.Results The perioperative mortality was 1.0％ (111 cases).Eight independent predicting factors were obtained by the regression analysis.Then the risk index scoring was defined:classification of the Association of American Physicians (grade Ⅰ:0 point;grade 1:3 points;grade Ⅲ or 1:4 points),BMI(＜24 kg/m2:0 point;＞24 kg/m2:-1 point),renal insufficiency(1 point),chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(3 points),diabetes needing insulin treatment(2 points),preoperative hypoalbuminemia (1 point),preoperative hyponatremia (1 point) and general anesthesia (1 point).The patients with risk scores＜6 points were classified as low risk,patients with risk score 6-7 points were classified as intermediate risk and those with risk score＞ 7 were classified as high risk.The actual predicting risk of perioperative death in high risk patients ＞10％.The perioperative mortality risk index exhibited better diagnostic recognition ability (c-statistic=0.878).Conclusion The perioperative mortality risk of aged patients undergoing non-neurologic and non-cardiovascular surgery can be predicted by the risk index scoring,which can help to screen the high-risk individuals of perioperative death in order to give more carefully perioperative management.
