Objective sampling method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey on outpatients in two hospitals in Guangdong province in order to evaluate patients’ satisfaction with the quality of medical service. This paper explored the factors that affect patients’ evaluation of medical service quality, and found that patients’ age was negatively correlated with the evaluation of medical service quality. It is suggested that the establishment of friendly medical institutions should be carried out according to the national policy. At the same time, the management mechanism of hospital should be improved, the number of medical service centers for "efficient" should be increased, and the medical service personnel should be regularly trained; carry out medical knowledge education in community, improve the popularization of personal medical knowledge and close the cognitive gap between doctors and patients.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the role and mechanism of microRNA-125b (miR-125b) in downregulating ion channel-related protein expression in a cardiac hypertrophy model.METHODS① In vivo:Lentiviral vectors for miR-125b overexpression and knockdown were constructed,and male C57BL/6 mice were divided into the following groups:sham group (thoracotomy without virus injection),LV-miR-125b group (mmu-miR-125b mimic),LV-miR-125b-inhibitor group (mmu-miR-125b-inhibitor),and negative control group (LV-NC).The mice were raised under normal conditions for 4 weeks.The ultrastructural changes in myocardium tissue sections of LV-miR-125b mice were observed using trans-mission electron microscopy.The cardiac hypertrophy model in mice was established using thoracic aortic constriction (TAC).Echocardiography was performed to measure ejection fraction (EF) and frac-tional shortening (FS),and the ratio of heart weight to body weight (HW/BW),ratio of heart weight to tibia length (HW/TL),as well as the expression level of the myocardial hypertrophy marker β-myosin heavy chain (β-MHC) were calculated to evaluate the success of the TAC-induced hypertrophy model.Subse-quently,C57BL/6 mice were divided into four groups:Sham group,TAC model group,LV-miR-125b-inhibitor+TAC group,and LV-NC+TAC group.Protein expression levels of cardiac sodium channel (Nav1.5) and calcium channel (Cav1.2) were detected using Western blotting.RT-qPCR was performed to assess the levels of miR-125b and mRNA expression of myocardial hypertrophy markers,including atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP),brain natriuretic peptide (BNP),and β-MHC.② In vitro:Primary cultured neonatal Kunming mouse cardiomyocytes were divided into four groups:cell control group (no treatment),miR-125b overexpression group,miR-125b-inhibitor group,and negative control group (NC).RT-qPCR was used to detect the levels of miR-125b,ANP,BNP,and β-MHC.Western blotting and immunofluorescence were performed to assess the expression levels of Nav1.5 and Cav1.2 in the cardiomyocytes.Luciferase reporter gene assay was used to evaluate the direct effect of miR-125b on the target proteins Nav1.5 and Cav1.2.RESULTS ① In vivo:Compared to the Sham group,the TAC model mice showed significantly increased the ratio of heart weight to body weight (HW/BW),the ratio of heart weight to tibia length (HW/TL),and expression levels of the myocardial hypertrophy marker β-MHC (P＜0.05),indicating the successful establishment of the TAC model.Furthermore,miR-125b expression was significantly elevated in the TAC model group (P＜0.01).In the LV-miR-125b group,compared to the LV-NC group,the expression levels of myocardial hypertrophy markers ANP,BNP,and β-MHC were significantly increased (P＜0.01),while the ejection fraction (EF) and fractional short-ening (FS) values of the mice were significantly reduced (P＜0.01).Additionally,Additionally,myocardium ultrastructure of LV-miR-125b group was damaged.Compared to the LV-NC+TAC group,the LV-miR-125b-inhibitor+TAC group showed a significant increase in ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening (FS) values (P＜0.05).Additionally,the levels of Nav1.5 and Cav1.2 in myocardium tissue were signifi-cantly elevated in the LV-miR-125b-inhibitor+TAC group compared to the LV-NC+TAC group (P＜0.05).② In vitro:Compared to the NC group,the miR-125b overexpression group showed a significant increase in miR-125b expression (P＜0.01),as well as elevated levels of ANP,BNP,and β-MHC (P＜0.01).However,miR-125b-inhibitor significantly reversed the increases in ANP,BNP,and β-MHC (P＜0.01).Western blotting and immunofluorescence results showed that,compared to the NC group,the miR-125b mimic group exhibited significantly decreased levels of Nav1.5 and Cav1.2 (P＜0.01),while miR-125b-inhibitor led to an increase in the levels of both Nav1.5 and Cav1.2.Luciferase assay results demon-strated that miR-125b directly binds to the ion channel proteins Nav1.5 and Cav1.2,encoded by the SCN5A and CACNA1C genes.CONCLUSION miR-125b promotes the development of cardiac hyper-trophy by inhibiting the voltage-gated ion channel proteins Nav1.5 and Cav1.2 Inhibition of miR-125b expression improves cardiac hypertrophy.

Objective:To establish a three-dimensional model of locking plate fixation for 42A2 type oblique tibial fractures with different fracture line directions and different angles between the fracture line and the long axis of the tibia. Finite element analysis was used to calculate and analyze the biomechanics of locking plate, screw, and tibia, providing theoretical basis for clinical application.Methods:A healthy adult volunteer, 25 years old, male, with a height of 173 cm and a weight of 69.5 kg, was selected to perform computed tomography (CT) scans on the left tibia. Relevant data were obtained to establish a locking steel plate fixation model for 42A2 type tibia with different oblique fracture line directions and different angles between the fracture line and the long axis of the tibia. Eight hole pure titanium plates were used for fixation, respectively. We compared the Mises stress changes of locking plates, screws, and tibia in different angle fracture models.Results:In the case of a 42A2 type fracture in the left oblique direction with a fracture line from outside to inside, the maximum Mises stress in the tibia was 114 MPa, the maximum Mises stress in the screw was 279.8 MPa, and the maximum Mises stress in the locking steel plate was 302.4 MPa; In the case of a 42A2 type fracture in the right oblique fracture with a fracture line from the bottom to the top, the maximum Mises stress of the tibia was 93.41MPa, the maximum Mises stress of the screw was 353.4 MPa, and the maximum Mises stress of the locking steel plate was 411.8 MPa.Conclusions:Regardless of the oblique fractures in both left and right directions, the maximum stress values are: locking plate>screw>tibia; When the position of the locking steel plate is fixed, the maximum stress values of the locking steel plate and screw are both right oblique fracture>left oblique fracture; And the maximum stress values all increase with the increase of angle.
