Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) accompanied with KMT2D gene mutation and the impact of its co-mutated genes on prognosis. Methods Clinical data of 155 newly diagnosed DLBCL patients were obtained. The second-generation sequencing method was used to detect 475 hotspot genes, including KMT2D mutation. Patients were divided into the KMT2D mutation group and KMT2D wild-type group based on the presence or absence of KMT2D gene mutation. Clinical characteristics, differences in co-mutated genes, and survival differences between the two groups were compared. Results The frequency of KMT2D mutation was 31%, which is predominantly observed in elderly patients (P=0.07) and less in the double-expressor phenotype (P=0.07). Compared with the KMT2D wild-type group, KMT2D gene mutation was associated with higher co-mutation rates of CDKN2A (OR=2.82, P=0.01) and BCL2 (OR=3.84, P=0.016), while being mutually exclusive with MYC gene mutation (OR=0.11, P=0.013). In univariate survival analysis, no statistically significant difference in overall survival (OS) was found between the KMT2D mutation group and the wild-type group (P=0.54). Further analysis of the prognostic significance of KMT2D with other gene mutations indicated that patients with KMT2D^mutBTG2^mut had poorer OS than those with KMT2D^wt BTG2^mut (P=0.07) and KMT2D^wt BTG2^wt (P=0.05). On the contrary, patients with KMT2D^mut CD79B^mut had better OS than those with KMT2D^mut CD79B^wt (P=0.09), with no prognostic impact observed for other co-mutated genes. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that Ann Arbor stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ (HR=2.751, 95%CI: 1.169-6.472, P=0.02), elevated LDH levels (HR=2.461, 95%CI: 1.396-4.337, P=0.002), Ki-67 index>80% (HR=1.875, 95%CI: 1.066-3.299, P=0.029), and KMT2D^mutBTG2^mut(HR=4.566, 95%CI: 1.348-15.471, P=0.015) were independent risk factors for OS in patients with DLBCL (P<0.05). Conclusion DLBCL patients with KMT2D mutation often have multiple gene mutations, among which patients with a co-mutated BTG2 gene have poor prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the polymorphism of endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP-1) gene and the occurrence of pre-eclampsia (PE).Methods:A case-control study was conducted in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital from October 2018 to October 2021. A total of 51 PE pregnant women with onset gestational age<34 weeks were selected as the PE group, and 48 normal pregnant women during the same period were selected as the control group. Venous blood samples were collected from the pregnant women before delivery and umbilical cord within 5 minutes after delivery. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of ERAP-1 gene in the pregnant women and their fetus were detected by next-generation sequencing. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze all the SNP loci and alleles detected in the two groups, and the significant SNP were screened.Results:(1) A total of 13 target SNP loci of maternal ERAP-1 gene were selected by univariate analysis. Among them, the frequency distribution of genotypes at 96096828, 96121524, 96121715, 96122260 and 96122281 showed statistically significant differences between PE group and control group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of PE in pregnant women with TC genotype at locus 96121524 was 2.002 times higher than those with TT genotype (95% CI: 0.687-5.831, P=0.020). (2) A total of 4 target SNP loci of ERAP-1 gene in fetal were selected by univariate analysis, and there was no statistical significance in gene polymorphism of the 4 loci between PE group and control group (all P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of PE in fetus with genotype AA at locus 96121406 was 0.236 times that of fetus with genotype GG (95% CI: 0.055-1.025, P=0.016). Conclusion:ERAP-1 gene with TC genotype at 96121524 in the mother and GG genotype at 96121406 in the fetus might be related to the incidence of PE.

Biochemistry experiment is an experimental module associated with biochemistry curriculum. In the context of deepening the education reform on innovation & entrepreneurship, integrating the concept of innovation & entrepreneurship with the experimental course is an effective way for the biology discipline to foster professional talents with strong engineering ability and innovation & entrepreneurship ability. Outcome-based education (OBE) is a new concept for education. Guided by this concept, we encouraged students to propose and take part in research projects, redesigned the time frame for research project-based experiment teaching, and implemented a multi-dimensional evaluation system along the entire teaching process. Furthermore, we integrated the concept of innovation & entrepreneurship for training undergraduates during the teaching process of biochemistry experiment. These measures not only boosted the students' interest in research and innovation, but also guided the teachers to participate in the entire process, which helped improving the engineering ability and innovation & entrepreneurship ability of the students.

Objective: To discuss the application of Mohs microsurgery in nasal and facial basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and analyze the pathological and clinical features. Methods: The clinical data of 127 patients who were diagnosed by pathology as nasal and facial BCC in Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from January 2010 to January 2015 were retrospectively analysed. The value of Mohs microsurgery was discussed and the nasal & facial sites of BCC lesions, clinical and histopathology features were summarized. Results: The proportion of male and female was 1.27︰1 in 127 patients, the ages ranged from 27 to 91 years. The top three inflicted area in nasal and facial was followed by nasal dorsum, nasal root and upper lip.The most frequent clinical type was nodular ulcerative type.The most common pathological type was nodular and pigmented. Routine surgical resection was performed in 62 cases (48.8%) while Mohs micrographic surgery in 38 cases (29.9%). Follow-up duration was 37 months on average. Local recurrence occurred in 5 cases in routine surgical resection group while there was no recurrence in Mohs micrographic surgery group. There was no distant metastasis in all cases. Conclusions There are few specific clinical manifestation in nasal & facial BCC. Surgical treatment is prefered, especially by Mohs micrographic surgery, because it can strictly control the scope of surgical resection and obtain malformation repairment as well as beauty in nasal and facial region.

Objective To explore the associations of the genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily D, polypeptide 6 (CYP2D6) and cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily C, polypeptide 9 (CYP2C9) with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia and the efficacy of labetalol therapy. Methods Totally 105 gravidas diagnosed with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia (experimental group) and 103 healthy gravidas (control group) were recruited from Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital between August 2013 and July 2016. Labetalol was given to control blood pressures in gravidas with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia. If labetalol administration alone did not exceed the mean dose (100 mg, one dose per eight hours) and effectively controlled the blood pressures, it would be considered to be valid (n=75), otherwise it would be viewed as an invalid treatment. Genotype and allele frequencies of CYP2C9 gene (rs1057910 and rs4918758) and CYP2D6 gene (rs1065852, rs28371725, rs35742686 and rs3892097) in the gravidas were analyzed by TaqMan probe polymerase chain reaction. Differences in the genotype and allele frequencies were compared between the experimental and control groups, and the valid and invalid labetalol treatment groups. Chi-square test, analysis of variance and LSD test were used as statistical methods. Results The gravidas in both experimental and control groups were AA genotype in CYP2C9 gene rs1057910, TT genotype in CYP2D6 gene rs35742686 and CC genotype in CYP2D6 gene rs3892097. Frequencies of CC and CT genotypes in CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group [18.1% (19/105) vs 14.6% (15/103);56.2% (59/105) vs 42.7% (44/103); χ2=6.707], and higher C allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 was also observed in the experimental group [46.2% (97/210) vs 35.9% (74/206), χ2=4.529] (all P<0.05). No statistical differences in maternal age, diastolic pressure, body mass index before pregnancy, serum triglyceride, creatinine and neonatal birth weight were observed among women with CC, CT or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 in the experimental group (all P>0.05). Compared with the gravidas with CT or TT genotype of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725, those with CC genotype had longer gestational age [(32.5±2.1) vs (29.5±1.8) and (29.8±2.2) weeks] and higher plasma albumin [(27.2±9.3) vs (20.3±10.4) and (22.5±7.4) g/L], but lower systolic pressure and 24 hours urine protein (LSD test, all P<0.05). The G allele frequency in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 in invalid labetalol treatment group was higher than that in valid labetalol treatment group [93.3% (56/60) vs 76.0% (114/150), χ2=8.351, P=0.004]. Conclusions The polymorphism of CYP2D6 gene rs28371725 may be associated with early-onset severe pre-eclampsia, and the allele of G in CYP2D6 gene rs1065852 may be associated with the efficacy of labetalol in treatment of early-onset severe pre-eclampsia.

Objective To investigate the performance of MicroScan WalkAway 96 Plus (MSW) system in detection of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE).Methods A total of 81 stock CRE strains were used in this study. Bacterial identification and antimicrobial susceptibility test were performed by MSW system. Beta-lactamases genes blaKPC,blaIMP,blaVIM, blaOXA-48 and blaNDM were amplified by PCR and subjected to sequencing analysis. Disk diffusion method and PCR were used as gold standard to evaluate the performance and reliability of MSW system in identifying carbapenem-resistant and carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae.Results Overall, 69.1 % (56/81) of the Enterobacteriaceae strains were identified as CRE by the MSW system. The results of PCR showed that 48 strains were carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. When carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae strains were identified by the instrument using an advanced expert system, the sensitivity was 93.8 % and specificity was 42.4 %. The positive predictive value was 70.3 %, the negative predictive value was 82.4 % and the predictive accuracy value was 72.8 %.Conclusions The MicroScan WalkAway 96 Plus system has shown good performance in detection of CRE.

Objective To evaluate the application of scenario-based training and medical simulator in the orthopedics education. Methods A total of 60 students from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine who finished their orthopedics internship from January 2016 to July 2016 were involved. They were randomly divided into the study group and control group with 30 students each. The study group re-ceived 2 classes of scenario-based training and medical simulator assisted education during their internship in the orthopedics department while the control group received 2 classes of traditional lessons instead. Sur-veys were conducted after the internship and the scores of internship were also recorded. Result The overall satisfaction was higher in the study group than the control group [(8.6±0.6) vs. (8.1±0.5), P=0.001]. On the part of learning interest, clinical thinking, clinical practice and group working, the study group also received better evaluation (P<0.05). The study group achieved better scores in the final examination than the control group [(84.4±2.6) vs. (82.5±3.4), P=0.018]. Conclusion The combination of scenario-based training and medical simulator can improve the ability of medical students in the orthopedics education, and receive higher satisfaction.

Medical simulation training as a modern medical education has been used for decades in developed countries. Simulation based team training for obstetric emergency provides opportunities to re-hearse without risks to patients and helps overcome some limitations of the current medical education to improve the ability of medical staff to deal with obstetric emergencies, and improve adverse pregnancy out-comes. Simulation training is still at early stage in China. The Simulation Training Center of Beijing Ob-stetrics&Gynecology Hospital was established in June 2013. There are 100 medical staffs from our hospital and 406 from other hospitals who are trained using simulations to respond to acute obstetrical emergencies, including postpartum hemorrhage, neonatal recovery, shoulder dystocia and amniotic fluid embolism. Through introduction—on-scene simulation training—task report, we focus on learning, practical operation, emer-gency team and multidisciplinary coordination and communication skills training and through training, help learners understand the medical simulation training mode, and improve personal and team's ability to deal with the obstetric emergency. There is no doubt that simulation training will be further developed in China. Further research is required to investigate the application significance and feasibility of simulation training and access effectiveness of it.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and awareness rate of adult diabetes mellitus and the risk factors in Liaoning Anshan. Methods A cross-sectional population survey was performed among residents in Liaoning Anshan and 2 500 subjects participated. Subjects whose fasting plasma glucose ≥ 5.6 mmol/L were confirmed by oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Results The standardized prevalence of adult diabetes mellitus over the age of 20 in Liaoning Anshan was 8.2%, and the standardized prevalence of pre-diabetes mellitus was 14.8%. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus increased with age (P<0.05). The awareness rate of diabetes mellitus in Liaoning Anshan was 52.3%(125/239), and the awareness rate of pre-diabetes mellitus was 8.7%(35/402). Logistic regression indicated that age, family history of diabetes, overweight or obesity, waist circumference, hypertriacylglycerolemia was the risk factors (P<0.05), while regular exercise was protective factor (P<0.05). Conclusions The current prevalence of diabetes mellitus and pre-diabetes mellitus in Liaoning Anshan is higher, and the awareness rate is lower.

Objective To compare the quality of life ( QOL) in different family life cycle residents and analyze its influencing factors. Methods Based on the stratified cluster sampling,517 married residents from three communities of Dongguan city were chosen to be investigated by a questionnaire on the general status and the MOS health survey (SF-36).The One-Way ANOVA and Multiple Regression Analysis were used to analyze the data. Result There were significant differences on the seven domains of the SF-36 ex-cept of physical pain in different family life cycle residents (P<0.05) . The scores of different domains at the retirement or senior years were the lowest ( ranging from 37.10-59.81) ,and the scores of different domains at the child-bearing period were highest (ranging from 37.10-59.81). The results of Multiple Linear Stepwise Regression showed that the QOL of different family life cycle residents were influenced by some factors. The influencing factors on PCS at the child-bearing period were income (β=1.51) and life events (β=-6.13), while that at the period of families with adolescents were economic income (β=1.81) and age (β=-0.65);that at the period of empty nest were economic income (β=-3.64) and age (β=-0.65);and that at the re-tirement or senior years were unhealthy living habit (β=-15.06),age (β=-0.56) and income (β=3.06). The influencing factors on MCS at the child-bearing period was medical insurance (β=5.86),while that at the period of families with adolescents were medical insurance (β=6.28),education (β=2.32),life events (β=-4.68) and occupation (β=-5.53);that at the period of the empty nest were age (β=-0.61) ,gender (β=-10.35) and chronic disease (β=-8.35);that at the retirement or senior years were age (β=-0.27) , economic income (β=2.55) and unhealthy living habit (β=-6.95) . Conclusion The influencing factors of QOL for different family cycle residents are not conformity with each other. It suggested that in order to im-prove the QOL of residents, the community health service including health education and health promotion should be based on different family life cycle.
