Before the "mesorectal" theory was proposed, the traditional anatomy believed that the "pelvirectal space" belonged to the anal canal and perirectal space, which was independent of the rectal structure, located on both sides of the rectum, above the levator ani, and below the peritoneal reflexion, and was composed of a large amount of fatty tissue filling. With the development of the theory of membrane anatomy and the clarification of the concept of "rectal mesentery", combined with the author's clinical experience, we found that the above-mentioned fat is actually the fat within the mesorectum, as well as the fat tissue of lateral lymph nodes (LLN) such as the internal iliac lymph nodes (No.263) and obturator lymph nodes (No.283) on both sides of the rectal mesentery, rather than the so-called fat tissue within the interstitial space. Therefore, the author believes that the pelvirectal space does not exist. In the anatomical location equivalent to the pelvic rectal space, there is the "superior levator ani space" based on the membrane anatomy theory. From the pelvirectal space to the superior levator anal space, it reflects our further understanding of the anatomy of the rectal mesentery.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the implementation experience of France’s additional list system for innovative medical products, and to provide reference for China to support medical institutions to use innovative medical products. METHODS Taking France as a case study, using policy analysis method, this paper systematically studied the practice of establishing additional list system to compensate for innovative medical products in France under diagnosis-related group (DRG) payment, including the establishment background, selection procedure and implementation effect. The suggestions were provided on the medical insurance payment methods for innovative medical products in China. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The additional list system established a compensation and payment system for innovative medical products with significant clinical efficacy but high treatment cost, covering four stages: application, evaluation, payment and adjustment, which effectively reduced the drug burden on medical institutions, promoted the use of innovative pharmaceutical products by medical institutions, and stimulated the innovation drive of the pharmaceutical industry, but at the same time brought payment pressure to the medical insurance fund. With the rapid spread of our DRG/diagnosis-intervention packet payment reform of China, some regions have also explored the establishment of a compensation and payment mechanism for innovative medical products, but there are still imperfections. We can refer to the implementation experience of the French additional list system and establish an effective compensation and payment system for innovative medical products starting from the establishment of selection criteria, the selection of compensation mode and the implementation of dynamic adjustment.

Objective:To study the clinical and molecular characteristics of a family with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) with LDLRAP1 and ABCG8 gene abnormality.Methods:In September 2020, one case of FH was included in Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine; peripheral venous blood samples of members of the family were collected to detect serum total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) indicators; use high-performance liquid chromatography to detect serum stigmasterol and sitosterol content; perform second-generation gene sequencing to detect gene mutations in probands and family members; use Pymol software to detect gene mutations point for pathogenicity analysis, and use Uniprot Modelling software to perform protein structure modeling.Results:The patient presented with anemia, multiple xanthomas and early-onset acute coronary syndrome. The coronary angiography showed severe coronary artery lesions; abdominal ultrasound showed splenomegaly; blood smear showed shaped erythrocytes and large platelets. The level of serum TC, LDL-C, stigmasterol and sitosterol was 8.54 mmol/L (2.3-5.7 mmol/L), 4.84 mmol/L (range of normal value 1.3-4.3 mmol/L), 44 μmol/L (1.0-10 μmol/L), 28 μmol/L (1.0-15 μmol/L), respectively; LDLRAP1 gene mutation was found: exon4 c.415C>T:p.Q139X; the truncated protein formed by this homozygous mutation lost multiple stable protein structure regions, which can not have a normal function. At the same time, ABCG8 gene mutations were also found: exon13 c.1895T>C (p.V632A) and exon8 c.1199C>A:p.T400K . Two cases of family members had a mild increase in HDL-C (Ⅱ5: 2.33 mmol/L, Ⅱ6∶2.96 mmol/L), 3 cases carrying the ABCG8 gene mutations had a slight increase in stigmasterol (Ⅱ8: 23 μmol/L, Ⅱ7: 24 μmol/L, Ⅰ2: 18 μmol/L) and sitosterol (Ⅱ8: 41 μmol/L, Ⅱ7: 33 μmol/L, Ⅰ2: 45 μmol/L), suggesting that its association with the concentration of plant sterols. Conclusions:FH patients with LDLRAP1 and ABCG8 gene abnormalities may have abnormal plant sterol concentrations, and their clinical manifestations are more complicated. Therefore, family history, LDL-C, plant sterol levels, and genetic test results should be considered comprehensively.

OBJECTIVE:To learn from the experience of foreign listed chimeric antigen receptor T lymphocyte (CAR-T) products in signing risk sharing agreements in medical insurance access ,so as to provide references for relevant decisions of medical insurance departments in China. METHODS :Taking 9 risk sharing agreements of CAR-T products marketed in the United Kingdom,France,Italy and Germany as samples ,the international experience of medical insurance payment of CAR-T products were analyzed from six dimensions ,such as agreement types ,monitoring indicators ,data collection metho ds,agreement periods , payment conditions and payment methods. Some suggestions were put forward for the medical insurance access of these products in China. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS :Four sample countries generally signed risk sharing agreements of medical insurance access (financial agreement and performance-based agreement )with pharmaceutical enterprises ;the indicators such as progressive disease and progression-free survival were collected by using data collection system or clinical research data ,so as to monitor the efficacy and safety of CAR-T products. The agreement periods and payment conditions were determined according to different agreement types;“medical insurance advance payment ”or“pharmaceutical enterprise advance payment ”combined with “staged payments ” were adopted for risk control. Solving the risk of medical insurance funds caused by “efficacy uncertainty ”is the core issue of CAR-T product access. The induction of risk sharing agreements may be the way to solve this problem ,and the scientific design of the various elements of risk sharing agreements is a prerequisite to ensure that the agreement is operational.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of subtype diversity and transmission on HIV-1 among 12 to 30 years old student MSM in Zhejiang province.Methods:A total of 290 newly diagnosed HIV infected student MSM were selected as the research objects for molecular studies on HIV, in Zhejiang province during 2013 to 2015. Data on epidemiology and plasma samples of these people were collected. HIV-1 nucleotide sequences of pol gene regions were amplified using the RT-PCR/nested PCR method and sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis was performed to determine the HIV-1 genotypes. Characteristics of transmission mode among these cases were also analyzed. Results:A total of 290 cases, 50.3 % were diagnosed in Hangzhou and 81.0 % had college or above degrees. 178 sequences including 10 subtypes, were obtained, with the main subtypes as CRF01_AE (49.4 %, 88/178) and CRF07_BC (39.3 %, 70/178). A total of 18 molecular transmission clusters were formed (42 cases, cluster size from 2 to 4), with the proportions of clusters as 23.6 % (42/178). 61.9 % (26/42) of student MSM with their schools located in the same district within the transmission clusters. Their sexual partners would include both student MSM and non-student MSM. The proportion of clusters among middle school students was 38.2 % (13/34), higher than that of college students (20.1 %, 29/144) ( χ2=4.996, P<0.05). Conclusions:The HIV-1 subtypes of student MSM in Zhejiang province appeared diversity, which indicated with the diversity of sources of infection. The geographical distribution of cluster cases is relatively centralized. In order to effectively control the spread of AIDS, more attention should be paid to the sexual partners involved and to specific programs on intervention.

The BCCIP (BRCA2- and CDKN1A-interacting protein) is an important cofactor for BRCA2 in tumor suppression. Although the low expression of BCCIP is observed in multiple clinically diagnosed primary tumor tissues such as ovarian cancer, renal cell carcinoma and colorectal carcinoma, the mechanism of how BCCIP is regulated in cells is still unclear. The human INO80/YY1 chromatin remodeling complex composed of 15 subunits catalyzes ATP-dependent sliding of nucleosomes along DNA. Here, we first report that BCCIP is a novel target gene of the INO80/YY1 complex by presenting a series of experimental evidence. Gene expression studies combined with siRNA knockdown data locked candidate genes including BCCIP of the INO80/YY1 complex. Silencing or over-expressing the subunits of the INO80/YY1 complex regulates the expression level of BCCIP both in mRNA and proteins in cells. Also, the functions of INO80/YY1 complex in regulating the transactivation of BCCIP were confirmed by luciferase reporter assays. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) experiments clarify the enrichment of INO80 and YY1 at +0.17 kb downstream of the BCCIP transcriptional start site. However, this enrichment is significantly inhibited by either knocking down INO80 or YY1, suggesting the existence of both INO80 and YY1 is required for recruiting the INO80/YY1 complex to BCCIP promoter region. Our findings strongly indicate that BCCIP is a potential target gene of the INO80/YY1 complex.
