OBJECTIVES: To investigate the ethnic origin of Chuanqing people, one of the largest unidentified ethnic groups in Guizhou, China, and analyze its genetic relationships with surrounding populations. METHODS: Based on a self-developed microhaplotype system, we conducted genotyping and analyzed the genetic distribution of microhaplotype loci and their forensic applicability in Chuanqing population in Guizhou Province. Using the microhaplotype data from different intercontinental populations and previously reported data from Han population living in Guizhou Province, we systematically investigated the genetic background of Chuanqing people through population genetic approaches, including genetic distance estimation, principal component analysis, and phylogenetic tree construction. RESULTS: Among the studied population, the number of haplotype per microhaplotype ranged from 6 to 25. The average expected heterozygosity (He), observed heterozygosity (Ho), power of discrimination (PD), and probability of exclusion (PE) were 0.8291, 0.8301, 0.9387, and 0.6593, respectively. The cumulative power of discrimination (CPD) and cumulative probability of exclusion (CPE) for these 33 loci were 1-2.62×10^-41 and 1-7.64×10^-17, respectively. Population genetic analyses revealed that the Chuanqing population had close genetic relationships with the East Asian populations, especially the local Guizhou Han population, Beijing Han population and the Han populations living in southern China. CONCLUSIONS The 33 microhaplotypes exhibit high levels of genetic diversity in the Guizhou Chuanqing population, highlighting their potentials for both forensic identification and parentage testing. The Han populations might have contributed a significant amount of genetic material to the Chuanqing population during the formation and development of the latter.

Objective:To explore the subtypes of professional quality of life for Operating Room nurses from an "individual centered" perspective, so as to compare the differences in negative emotions and turnover intentions among different subtypes of nurses.Methods:This article was a cross-sectional survey study. Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 409 Operating Room nurses from three tertiary hospitals in Shandong Province were selected as the research objects in November 2021. The survey was conducted using General Information Questionnaire, Professional Quality of Life Scale, Depression Anxiety Stress Self-assessment Scale and single item of resignation intention. The latent profile analysis was used to explore the potential categories of professional quality of life for operating room nurses.Results:Finally, 350 valid questionnaires were collected, and the effective recovery rate was 85.57% (350/409). 350 operating room nurses scored (50.35±9.82) in the dimension of compassionate satisfaction, (49.01±10.43) in the dimension of burnout, and (49.18±9.53) in the dimension of secondary trauma, all of which were at a moderate level. The professional quality of life of operating room nurses was divided into three potential categories, namely good type (25.14%, n=88), contradictory type (17.43%, n=61) and low satisfaction type (57.43%, n=201). The scores of depression dimension were (3.89±7.69), (14.39±11.13) and (13.18±9.50) in good, contradictory and low-satisfaction class nurses, respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). The scores of anxiety were (5.82±8.45), (16.92±10.87) and (14.45±9.29), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P< 0.01). The scores of stress dimension were (5.64±8.27), (17.18±11.36) and (15.01±9.10), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). The scores of turnover intention were (1.45±0.52), (2.07±1.09), and (2.42±1.06), respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:There are different characteristic groups of professional quality of life in operating room nurses, and the population distribution is closely related to negative emotion and turnover intention. Nursing managers should pay attention to the identification and intervention of contradictory and low-satisfaction operating room nurses and give accurate and classified policies.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between self-management ability and self-efficacy in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients, and the influential factors.Methods:From April to June 2016, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 236 patients with coronary heart disease selected by simple random sampling method in the outpatient clinic of Pengpu Community Health Service Center; and the Coronary Artery Disease Self-management Scale and self-efficacy questionnaire were used in the survey. The correlation between scores of the two scales was analyzed; the scores were compared between patients with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and those without PCI, between patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and those without MI. Multiple linear regression was performed to elucidate the influencing factors of self-management ability and self-efficacy of CHD patients.Results:The mean scores of self-management ability and self-efficacy were (75.5±15.5) and (24.8±10.8), respectively. The self-management ability was significantly correlated with self-efficacy in CHD patients(r=0.398-0.683, P<0.05). The self-management score of patients with PCI was higher than those without PCI[ (80.4±14.9) vs.(72.5±15.1), t=3.38, P<0.01]. The scores of self-management[(85.0±16.4) vs.(72.9±14.2), t=5.14, P<0.01]and self-efficacy[(29.3±12.0) vs. (23.6±10.2), t=3.39, P<0.01] of patients with MI were higher than those without MI. Multiple linear stepwise regression analysis indicated that age over 65, history of MI, history of PCI, history of smoking and self-efficacy score were all factors influencing self-management behavior in patients with CHD ( R=0.735; R2=0.540; F=26.451, P<0.01). Smoking history and self-management score were the influencing factors of self-efficacy in patients with CHD ( R=0.690; R2=0.476; F=20.425, P<0.01). Conclusion:The self-efficacy of patients with CHD is closely related to their self-management behavior, so we should strengthen their self-efficacy and improve their self-management level by comprehensive measures, particularly for patients without PCI.

Objective To evaluate the preventive effect of combination of low-dose HBIg and Nucleoside analogues on recurrence of hepatitis B after liver transplantation. Methods Retrospectively analyzed HBV status and recurrence in patients accepting Nucleoside analogues plus low-dose HBIg as prophylaxis treatment after liver transplantation for HBV-related end-stage liver disease from December 1998 to Octomber 2009 in our center. Results In all the 1506 patients whose survival time >30 d after liver transplantation, 37 patients showed HBV recurrence, the HBV cumulative-recurrence rate of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6y was 1.3%,2. 4%,2. 7%,2. 9%,3. 7% and 4.6% respectively. The time of recurrence varied from 0. 3 to 66. 6 months (median 12. 8 months) after transplantation. Virus mutation could be tested in 9 cases of the 37 recurrence patients, including 4 YMDD cases, 2 YMDD + YIDD cases, 1 YMDD+YVDD cases, 1 YVDD case,and 1 YIDD case. Conclusions Liver transplantation is the principal therapeutic method for the patient with end-stage liver diseases related to HBV, with the effectively prophylaxis treatment to aim directly at HBV recurrence. If the patients who got HBV recurrence received targeted treatments, the situation can be controlled satisfactorily.

Objective To isolate and identify the potential binding partners of LRRK2,a gene linked to both dominant familial form and sporadic form of Parkinson's disease,thus to further our knowledge of its function.Methods We used a sequence containing full-length of COR domain and part of ROC and MAPKKK domain as bait.The bait amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) was then cloned into a yeast expression plasmid pGBKT7.After being sequenced and analyzed,pGBKT7-bait was transformed into the yeast strain AH109.Western blot was performed to confirm the expression of pGBKT7-bait in AH109 yeast strain.Then human fetal brain cDNA library was trarnsformed into that yeast strain.which could express pGBKT7-bait fusion protein.The yeast strain which contained pGBKT7-bait and human fetal brain cDNA library was plated on quadruple dropout medium (SD/-Trp/-Leu/-His/-Ade)containing X-a-gal.We retested these positive colonies using 2 independent yeast strains AH109 contained pGBKT7-bait or pGBKT7,respectively.At last,these plasmids isolated from these true positive colonies were analyzed by bioinformatics.Results We obtained 9 true positive colonies,these colonies were sequenced, and we performed sequence Blast in GenBank.Three colonies of the 9 positive colonies were not in open reading-frames.Among other 6 colonies,there were known proteins including spermatid perinuclear RNA-binding protein(STRBP)and BCL2-associated athanogene 5 isoform b(BAG5),as well as unknown proteins including tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type(PTPN23),1(3)mbt-like 3 isoform b(L3 MBTL3),RALY RNA binding protein-like isoform 1(RALYL),and Homo sapiens mRNA for KIAA1783 protein,partial cds(KIAA 1783).Conclusion True positive colonies of LRRK2 are successfully obtained by the yeast 2-hybrid.Our screened proteins may provide a new research clue for revealing biological functions of LRRK2,pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease,and other neurodegerations.
