OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics and genetic etiology of a male with a normal phenotype and SRY gene-positive 46,XX/46,XY tetrazoospermia chimerism. METHODS: A male patient with an abnormal peripheral blood chromosomal karyotype detected at the Infertility Center of Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province on December 2, 2013 was selected as the study subject. Peripheral venous blood samples were collected from the proband and his family members, together with a semen sample from the proband. Chromosomal karyotype analysis, red blood cell blood group identification, chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), sex-determining region Y (SRY) gene detection, and short tandem repeat (STR) microsatellite marker analysis were performed on the peripheral venous blood sample from the proband. Routine semen analysis, sperm FISH, and STR testing were also conducted. STR verification was performed on both parents. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the hospital (Ethics No.: k20201009). RESULTS: The proband, a 37-year-old male, had normal secondary sexual characteristics and external genitalia development. The chromosomal karyotype of his peripheral blood sample was 46,XX[94]/46,XY[6]. ABO blood group typing was positive for Rh(D) type O and negative for Rh(D) type A, indicating the presence of two red blood cell populations. CMA result was arr[GRCh37](1-22)×2,(XX)×1. Autosomal and X chromosome SNP genotypes were BB-BB, AB-AB, and AA-AA, making it impossible to identify homozygous/heterozygous chimerism. FISH detection of interphase nuclei showed nuc ish XX[92]/XY[8]. Testing of the SRY gene was positive. STR analysis showed a single X peak (no Y peak) at the AMEL locus, 10/12 at the Penta D locus, and no third allele at other loci. Routine semen analysis were normal. Sperm FISH detection showed haploid nuclei nuc ish X[53]/Y[47]. Sperm STR analysis revealed an X/Y bimodal distribution at the AMEL locus and a 9/14 distribution at the Penta D locus, with no third allele observed at other loci. Above results suggested that the proband's blood and germ cell lines had originated from a heterozygous chimera formed by the fusion of two different zygotes. CONCLUSION Combined genetic techniques confirmed that the proband's peripheral blood AMEL genotype is X/X, while the sperm is X/Y. The Penta D locus showed a bi-allelic heterozygous pattern of 10/12 in the peripheral blood sample and 9/14 in the sperm sample, suggesting that the proband is a tetrazygotic chimera resulted from the fusion of 46,XX/46,XY zygotes.

Teaching clinics represent a unique form of outpatient training of resident physicians and serve as a crucial instrument and core component of standardized training of general practice residents. This article reviews the common model and innovations of teaching clinics of general practice in China, and analyzes their reported effectiveness in enhancing the capabilities of consultation of resident physicians, the teaching capabilities of general practice trainers, as well as satisfaction levels of involved participants. It outlines the challenges encountered in implementing teaching clinics, including inadequate teaching facilities and equipment, incomplete incentive system for teaching, difficulties in patient recruitment, and weaknesses in the teaching capabilities of trainers. To address these challenges, this article proposes corresponding strategies based on realistic needs, including the improvement of facilities and equipment in teaching clinics, the establishment of incentive systems for teaching clinics, the expansion of patient recruitment channels for teaching clinics, and the enhancement of training for trainers' teaching capabilities. This is envisaged to provide both theoretical bases and practical guidance for the effective execution and standardized development of teaching clinics in general practice residency training bases.

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of multiple ovarian cysts with mixed pituitary adenomas.Methods:The clinical materials of two patients with multiple ovarian cysts and mixed pituitary adenoma were analyzed, and associated literatures were reviewed.Results:The diagnosis and treatment of the first case were timely and accurate, which not only restored the endocrine function, but also naturally conceived and gave birth. Case 2 suffered from irreversible damage to the ovary after misdiagnosis and mistreatment in the early stage, leading to early menopause.Conclusion:When multiple ovarian cysts continue to occur in women of childbearing age, detailed endocrine examination and pituitary imaging examination are essential for the establishment of diagnosis. After removing the cause of the disease, the ovaries can return to normal, so as to avoid unnecessary ovarian surgery.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of elderly patients with cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML). Methods A total of 104 initial CN-AML patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. The clinical characteristics were collected and analyzed retrospectively. Factors affecting complete remission (CR) were analyzed by using chi square test. Univariate and multivariate analyses of prognostic factors were performed by using Kaplan-Meier and Cox hazard regression model respectively. Results After the first chemotherapy, 72 of 104 patients were able to be evaluated the efficacy, the CR rate was 38.9%(28/72) and total response rate was 55.6%(40/72). The white cell count<100 × 109/L and NPM1 mutation were related to a higher CR rate [59.4%(38/64) vs. 12.5%(1/8), 83.3%(10/12) vs. 36.4%(8/22), P<0.05]. Among 104 patients, the median overall survival (OS) was 6.9 months. Univariate analysis results demonstrated that age≥70 years, secondary AML, white cell count≥100×109/L, FLT3-ITD mutation, CD7 expression, achieving CR beyond 2 cycles of induction therapy and CCI score≥2 were influence factors on OS. In multivariable analysis, FLT3-ITD mutation (HR=7.61, 95%CI 1.80-32.11, P= 0.006) and achieving CR beyond 2 cycles of induction therapy (HR= 10.11, 95 % CI 2.38-43.03, P=0.002) were independent prognostic factors for OS in elderly patients with CN-AML. Conclusion The prognosis of elderly patients with CN-AML is the result of the combined effect of many factors, FLT3-ITD mutation and achieving CR beyond 2 cycles of induction therapy are independent prognostic factors in elderly patients with CN-AML.
