OBJECTIVE: To determine the carrier rate for thalassemia mutations in the ethnic Miao population of Qianxinan Prefecture. METHODS: Ethnic Miao people suspected for thalassemia trait at the People's Hospital of Qianxinan Prefecture, Guizhou Province between November 2020 to September 2024 were selected as the study subjects. Gap-PCR technology combined with high-throughput sequencing was used to screen a total of 666 individuals. ArcMap v10.8.2 was used to create a spatial distribution map of thalassemia based on the screening results. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the hospital (Ethics No.: 2016-01). RESULTS: In total 254 positive cases were detected, with an overall positive rate of 38.14%. Among these, 173 cases were α-thalassemia (25.98%), 77 cases were β-thalassemia (11.56%), and 4 cases were αβ compound thalassemia (0.60%). The most common genotypes for α-thalassemia were αα/--^SEA (positive rate = 10.06%, accounting for 38.73%), αα/-α^3.7 (positive rate = 8.86%, accounting for 34.10%), and α^CSα/αα (positive rate = 4.95%, accounting for 19.08%). The most common genotypes for β-thalassemia were β^41/42(-TTCT)/β^A (positive rate = 5.11%, accounting for 44.16%) and β^{17 (A>T)}/β^A(positive rate = 4.20%, accounting for 36.36%), with these two genotypes accounting for as much as 80.52%. The spatial distribution map indicated that the highest overall detection rate of thalassemia and α-thalassemia in the Miao population of Qianxinan Prefecture was in Xingyi City. The highest detection rate of β-thalassemia was in Zhenfeng County, and the highest detection rate of αβ compound thalassemia was in Wangmo County. CONCLUSION The detection rate of thalassemia among the ethnic Miaos from Qianxinan Prefecture is relatively high, which primarily consisted of α-thalassemia. Regular monitoring and educational outreach should be conducted.

Objective:To compare the effects of deep anesthesia extubation with sugammadex and neostigmine on perioperative respiratory adverse events (PRAE) and the duration of anesthesia recovery room (PACU) in children undergoing adenoidectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 470 children with adenoidectomy who underwent deep anesthesia extubation from February 2021 to April 2022 in Shenzhen Hospital of Southern Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. According to the use of muscle relaxant, they were divided into sugammadex group (group S) and neostigmine group (group N). Group S was intravenously injected with sugammadex 2 mg/kg after operation, and group N was intravenously injected with neostigemine 0.05 mg/kg combined with atropine 0.02 mg/kg when the train-of-four (TOF) value was >25%. The extubation time and PACU residence time of the two groups were recorded. Changes of heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) immediately after surgery (T 0), within 1min after extubation (T 1), 5 min after extubation (T 2), and 20 min after extubation (T 3). PRAE was record. Results:There were 138 cases of propensity score matching in group S and group N respectively. The extubation time and PACU residence time in group S were shorter than those in group N (all P<0.05). At T 1, T 2 and T 3, HR and MAP in group S were significantly lower than those in group N (all P<0.05). The incidence of persistent cough and decreased blood oxygen in group S was lower than that in group N (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with neostigmine, postoperative deep anesthesia extubation with sugammadex antagonistic residual muscle relaxant can shorten the duration of extubation and PACU retention after adenoidectomy, accelerate the recovery of children, make the peri-extubation cycle more stable, and reduce the occurrence of PRAE.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the therapeutic effect between rehabilitation robot rehabilitation training synchronizing acupuncture exercise therapy and simple acupuncture exercise therapy on lower limb function and life activity ability for postoperative patients with hip fracture. METHODS: A total of 50 elderly postoperative patients with hip fracture were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 25 cases in each group. Both groups were treated with acupuncture at hip three points of the affected side and lateral line 1 of vertex, anterior oblique parietotemporal line of the healthy side, hip three needles were retained for 30 min. The scalp acupuncture needles were continue retained, the observation group was given acupuncture exercise therapy to synchronize lower limb rehabilitation robot rehabilitation training, and the control group was given acupuncture exercise therapy. The two groups were treated once a day, 7 times as a course of treatment, and totally 4 courses were required. The Harris score, Barthel index score and quadriceps femoris isokinetic muscle strength indexes [peak torque (PT), average power (AP), flexor peak torque/extensor peak torque (F/E)] were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. RESULTS: After treatment, the Harris score, Barthel index score, PT and AP were higher than those before treatment ( CONCLUSION Rehabilitation robot rehabilitation training of lower limbs synchronizing acupuncture exercise therapy could enhance the hip joint activity function and quadriceps muscle group function of elderly postoperative patients with hip fracture, and effectively improve the lower limb function and life activity ability.

Objective To investigate the effect of ulinastatin on postoperative clinical outcomes in pa-tients undergoing elective laparoscopic colectomy. Methods 454 patients underwent elective laparoscopic colecto-my from January 2015 to September 2017 were included in this retrospective study. Patients were divided into 2 groups:ulinastatin group and control group. Propensity score matching was applied to balance the preoperative baseline differences between 2 groups. 155 patients in each group were successfully matched. Mixed linear model was used to exam the effect of ulinastatin on various clinical indicators within 3 days after the surgery,including in-flammation indicators(white blood cell counts,C reactive protein),liver function indicators(alanine transami-nase,aspartate transaminase,total bilirubin),renal function indicators(serum creatinine,blood urea nitrogen). Postoperative hospital length of stay was compared between 2 groups using student's t-test. Results Ulinastatin group showed significantly reduced postoperative white blood cell count and ? reactive protein level (P = 0.036 and 0.025)compared with the control group. The average mean inhibitory effects were 1.04×109/L and 23.93 mg/L respectively,which was 11.1% and 29.9% lower than that of the control group. Procalcitonin,transaminases,total bilirubin,serum creatinine,blood urea nitrogen levels and postoperative hospital length of stay showed no signifi-cant difference between the two groups(P > 0.05). Conclusion Ulinastatin can significantly reduce the level of inflammation response after laparoscopic colectomy,which is beneficial to the fast recovery.

The key of graduate student cultivation is to improve their science research ability.Here we make a deep analysis of the reason why our students have such a low ability of science research from the school,supervisors and students and then put forward two measures.
