Objective To explore the application effect of the Mini-CEX evaluation model based on the OBE concept in the clinical Practice teaching of neurology.Methods We Selected 100 students who will Practice in the Department of Neurology from 2022 to 2023 as the research objects,and divided them into the experimental group(n=50)and the control group(n=50).Under the guidance of the OBE concept,the experimental group was guided by learning outcomes,refined the teaching objectives,and applied the Mini-CEX evaluation mode for evaluation and feedback.In contrast,the control group adopted the traditional teaching mode.Combined with the observation data,we analyzed and compared the data of various indicators of the two groups of students at the beginning and end of the internship.Results At the end of the internship,the scores of clinical consultation,Physical examination,humanistic medicine,clinical diagnosis,health consultation,organizational effect,and overall evaluation of the experimental group were significantly improved and were higher than those of the control group.After the Practice,in terms of skill test scores,the experimental group scored higher than the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05),and the experimental group also scored higher in satisfaction evaluation than the control group.Conclusion The Mini-CEX evaluation teaching model based on the concept of OBE is applied to the clinical practice teaching of the neurology department,which can enhance the training effect of students'clinical practice skills.

The online and offline hybrid teaching model of evidence-based medicine (EBM) is currently in the stage of development. Previous teaching focused on the teaching process in the classroom, and did not organically combine all the course contents before, during, and after class. The BOPPPS model can be used to establish coherence and integrity in the EBM teaching process. Considering the discipline characteristics and teaching objectives of EBM, this study initially explored and designed a BOPPPS-based online and offline hybrid teaching model. Taking the "diagnostic evidence" module as an example, the teaching implementation details were introduced. A pre-designed questionnaire was used to conduct baseline survey and follow-up survey on students before and after class to evaluate the teaching model and effect. The surveys showed that half of the students (77/154) preferred the new online and offline hybrid teaching model of EBM. The students found that all aspects of BOPPPS teaching were generally acceptable and satisfactory. Compared with before teaching, the students' proficiency in EBM was significantly improved after the teaching ( P<0.001), particularly in their ability to retrieve literature and evaluate the quality of evidence, which is of great significance for expanding their knowledge and clinical thinking.

Objective To explore the application effect and safety of general anesthesia with different doses of remimazolam during vascular intervention anesthesia of intracranial aneurysms.Methods Patients with intracranial aneurysms were divided into high,middle and low dose groups according to the random number table method.The venous access was opened after the patients entered the room,and the vital signs were closely monitored.The low,middle and high dose groups were intravenously injected with 0.25,0.30 and 0.35 mg·kg-1remazolam,respectively.After the loss of consciousness,alfentanil and mivacurium chloride were given for anesthesia induction.The anesthetic effect,recovery quality,hemodynamic indexes,cerebral hemodynamic indexes and neurological function indexes before anesthesia induction(T0),at the time of laryngeal mask insertion(T1),embolization(T2),5 min after operation(T3)and 30 min after operation(T4)were compared among the three groups.The incidence of postoperative cerebral vasospasm(CVS),delayed ischemic neurological dysfunction(DIND)and the incidence of adverse drug reactions related to anesthesia were counted.Results The onset times of anesthesia in the high,middle,and low dose groups were(5.03±1.28),(5.17±1.09),and(7.21±1.15)min,respectively;the number of anesthesia rescue interventions were(0.12±0.02),(0.21±0.06),and(1.51±0.23)times,respectively.There was statistically significant difference in the number of rescue interventions between the high and middle dose groups compared to the low dose group(all P＜0.05).The therapeutic efficacy rates of flumazenil in the high,middle,and low dose groups were 18.18％,11.11％and 2.86％,respectively.the mean arterial pressure(MAP)at T2 were(87.06±6.02),(86.85±5.61)and(81.09±5.37)mmHg;the MAP at T4 were(92.05±5.13),(87.57±6.29)and(84.42±5.16)mmHg,respectively.There was statistically significant difference in MAP between the high and low dose groups(all P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in heart rate(HR),oxygen saturation(SpO2),left peak systolic velocity of middle cerebral artery(Vp-MCA),left mean systolic velocity of middle cerebral artery(Vm-MC)and pulsatility index(PI),S100β protein,and neuron-specific enolase(NSE)levels among the three groups at different time points(all P＞0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence rates of cardiovascular system complications,delayed postoperative cognitive dysfunction,or anesthesia-related adverse reactions between the three groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion The safety of different doses of remimazolam general anesthesia in the vascular interventional therapy of intracranial aneurysms is high,and the effects on cerebral hemodynamics and neurological function are similar.However,high-dose remimazolam have shorter general anesthesia induction time and less intraoperative anesthesia remedy frequency while the high-dose remimazolam has higher postoperative flumazenil antagonist therapy.

Localized juvenile spongiotic gingival hyperplasia(LJSGH)is a kind of gingival hyperplasia with unique pathological manifestations.Its clinical manifestations are atypical,and the etiology and pathogenesis are unclear.No case report was reported in China.The diagnosis of this disease mainly relies on pathological testing,and recurrence may occur after treatment.The best treatment method still lacks medical evidence.This paper reports a case of LJSGH in a teenager and summarizes its clinical,pathological,and treatment through literature review.This work provides a refer-ence for the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

RNA editing, an essential post-transcriptional reaction occurring in double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), generates informational diversity in the transcriptome and proteome. In mammals, the main type of RNA editing is the conversion of adenosine to inosine (A-to-I), processed by adenosine deaminases acting on the RNAs (ADARs) family, and interpreted as guanosine during nucleotide base-pairing. It has been reported that millions of nucleotide sites in human transcriptome undergo A-to-I editing events, catalyzed by the primarily responsible enzyme, ADAR1. In hematological malignancies including myeloid/lymphocytic leukemia and multiple myeloma, dysregulation of ADAR1 directly impacts the A-to-I editing states occurring in coding regions, non-coding regions, and immature miRNA precursors. Subsequently, aberrant A-to-I editing states result in altered molecular events, such as protein-coding sequence changes, intron retention, alternative splicing, and miRNA biogenesis inhibition. As a vital factor of the generation and stemness maintenance in leukemia stem cells (LSCs), disordered RNA editing drives the chaos of molecular regulatory network and ultimately promotes the cell proliferation, apoptosis inhibition and drug resistance. At present, novel drugs designed to target RNA editing(e.g., rebecsinib) are under development and have achieved outstanding results in animal experiments. Compared with traditional antitumor drugs, epigenetic antitumor drugs are expected to overcome the shackle of drug resistance and recurrence in hematological malignancies, and provide new treatment options for patients. This review summarized the recent advances in the regulation mechanism of ADAR1-mediated RNA editing events in hematologic malignancies, and further discussed the medical potential and clinical application of ADAR1.

Periodontitis is a common chronic inflammatory disease that causes the periodontal bone destruction and may ultimately result in tooth loss.With the progression of periodontitis,the osteoimmunology microenvironment in periodontitis is damaged and leads to the formation of pathological alveolar bone resorption.CD301b+macrophages are specific to the osteoimmunology microenvironment,and are emerging as vital booster for conducting bone regeneration.However,the key upstream targets of CD301b+macrophages and their potential mechanism in periodontitis remain elusive.In this study,we concentrated on the role of Tim4,a latent upstream regulator of CD301b+macrophages.We first demonstrated that the transcription level of Timd4(gene name of Tim4)in CD301b+macrophages was significantly upregulated compared to CD301b-macrophages via high-throughput RNA sequencing.Moreover,several Tim4-related functions such as apoptotic cell clearance,phagocytosis and engulfment were positively regulated by CD301b+macrophages.The single-cell RNA sequencing analysis subsequently discovered that Cd301b and Timd4 were specifically co-expressed in macrophages.The following flow cytometric analysis indicated that Tim4 positive expression rates in total macrophages shared highly synchronized dynamic changes with the proportions of CD301b+macrophages as periodontitis progressed.Furthermore,the deficiency of Tim4 in mice decreased CD301b+macrophages and eventually magnified alveolar bone resorption in periodontitis.Additionally,Tim4 controlled the p38 MAPK signaling pathway to ultimately mediate CD301b+macrophages phenotype.In a word,Tim4 might regulate CD301b+macrophages through p38 MAPK signaling pathway in periodontitis,which provided new insights into periodontitis immunoregulation as well as help to develop innovative therapeutic targets and treatment strategies for periodontitis.

Objective To investigate the distribution patterns of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)constitution in 959 patients with endometriosis(EMs).Methods From January 2019 to November 2019,959 EMs patients were selected from Guang'anmen Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences,Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University,Beijing Hospital,Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine,Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University,and Fuxing Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University.The general clinical information of the patients was recorded and then the TCM constitution was identified.After that,the correlation of TCM constitution distribution with concurrent constitution and the relationship of TCM constitution distribution with age and the complication of dysmenorrhea were analyzed.Results(1)The constitution types of EMs patients listed in descending order of the proportion were yang deficiency constitution(65.1％,624/959),qi stagnation constitution(58.4％,560/959),qi deficiency constitution(52.8％,506/959),blood stasis constitution(44.2％,424/959),phlegm-damp constitution(42.5％,408/959),damp-heat constitution(41.9％,402/959),yin deficiency constitution(39.6％,380/959),balanced constitution(26.8％,257/959),and inherited special constitution(16.6％,159/959).Among the patients,there were fewer patients with single constitution,accounting for 20.2％(194/959),and most of them had concurrent constitution types,accounting for 79.8％(765/959).(2)The association rule mining based on Apriori algorithm obtained 33 related rules.The concurrent constitution types of qi deficiency-yang deficiency,blood stasis-yang deficiency,and blood stasis-qi stagnation were the association rules with high confidence.(3)Compared with patients aged 35 years and below,the patients over 35 years old were predominated by high proportion of blood stasis constitution(P＜0.05).Compared with patients without dysmenorrhea,the patients with dysmenorrhea had the increased proportion of biased constitutions and the decreased proportion of balanced constitution(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion Yang deficiency constitution,qi stagnation constitution,qi deficiency constitution and blood stasis constitution are the high-risk constitution types of EMs patients.The concurrent constitution types are commonly seen in EMs patients,which are more common than single biased constitution.Management of EMs patients with the methods of warming yang,relieving stagnation,benefiting qi and activating blood will be helpful for correcting the biased constitutions in time and preventing disease progression,which will achieve the preventive treatment efficacy through TCM constitution correction.

N6-methyladenosine(m6A)denotes the addition of a methyl group to the sixth nitrogen atom of ade-nosine,a common occurrence in eukaryotic RNA.The m6A modifications govern RNA splicing,translocation,stability,and translation into proteins.The RNA methyltransferases,like methyltransferase-like protein 3(METTL3),METTL14,and Wilms'tumor 1-associated protein(WTAP),are responsible for these modifications,while the removal process in-volves demethylases,specifically fat mass and obesity-associated protein(FTO)and ALKB homolog 5(ALKBH5).Recog-nition of these modifications is facilitated by m6A-binding proteins,such as YTH family proteins and insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding proteins(IGF2BPs).The m6A modification regulators are involved in the onset and progression of non-small-cell lung cancer through multiple mechanisms.This review concentrates on the biological functions and molecu-lar mechanisms of m6A modification-related regulatory factors in the malignant progression of non-small-cell lung cancer.
