Objective To investigate the feature of c-kit gene mutation in gastrointestinal stromal tumor （GIST） and its correlation with clinicolpathology， molecular targeted therapy，and prognosis. Methods The related literatures about the molecular genetic mechanism of GIST were reviewed. Results The c-kit gene mutation， which is prevalent in GIST， may be the early genomic events， and they are not the independent prognostic factor. However， different molecular subtype as a new indicator to regulate biological behaviors and assess prognosis of GIST is still controversial. Conclusions The study of genotype in GIST has advanced our understanding of pathogenesis， evaluating the prognosis and conducting treatment optimization. However， subsequent work remains to be done.

【摘要】 目的 評價以問題為基礎式學習與病例討論式學習在“臨床風險篩查”培訓教學過程中的應用效果。 方法 2010年6月-2011年7月，聯合應用兩種教學方法對參訓醫學生進行培訓，然后進行臨床資料采集、資料整理等實踐活動。最后，對學生培訓效果進行總結。 結果 共培訓醫學生50人，并對398例患者進行營養風險篩查。45人（90%）參與者認為此教學方式能激發自身主動學習興趣，40人（80%）認為通過此次培訓能夠使學生逐步建立科學研究的思維方式，但有20人（40%）認為短期內采用兩種教學方式能夠對論文寫作、統計學理論和實踐等方面能力的提高有促進作用。影響醫學生科研能力培訓效果的主要因素集中體現在學習任務量的加重、對新教學方法不適應、自學能力三方面。 結論 聯合應用問題為基礎式學習與病例討論式學習教學模式，在提高醫學生學習主動性、積極性、團隊合作及人際溝通能力等方面有優勢，但尚存部分問題需要進一步解決。【Abstract】 Objective To explore the effectiveness of problem-based learning (PBL) and case-based study (CBS) in clinical nutritional risk screening training program. Methods All the students were trained by the combination methods of PBL and CBS. Clinical assessment, data collection and the collection of samples were conducted by the students. Finally, the impact of the new teaching strategy was assessed. Results From June 2010 to July 2011, there were a total of 50 students who attended the training program from various departments, and 398 patients were screened for nutritional risk. Forty-five students (90%) thought that this teaching method could inspire their interest in study; 40 students (80%) thought that this teaching method could help them establish a scientific way of thinking. Students who thought this teaching methodology could contribute to their enhancement of writing and statistical skills accounted for only 40 percent of the total enrollment. “High learning burden”, “difficulty in adapting to the new teaching methods” and “the ability of self-study” were the main factors which affected the motivation of students. Conclusions Combined applications of PBL and CBS have advantages in improving students′ learning initiative and enthusiasm, and developing the abilities of team cooperation and interpersonal communication skills. However, there are still some issues that need to be addressed.
Objective To investigate the accuracy of preoperative high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans to predict tumor stage, lymph node stage, and circumferential resection margin (CRM) involvement. Methods Between September 2006 and May 2009, 42 patients with histologically proven rectal cancer by the colonoscopic biopsy in Peking Union Medical College Hospital were staged preoperatively using MRI. All of the patients underwent total mesorectum excision (TME) operation within 1 week after MRI examination. The specimens were reported according to the 2002 TNM staging system for primary colorectal cancer of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC). Concordance between radiologic staging of tumor, local lymph node, and CRM involvement and pathologic reporting was assessed by means of the Kappa statistic.Results For all of 42 patients, MRI correctly staged the tumor in 36 patients, understaged in 3 patients and overstaged in 3 patients. Statistically, there was a better correlation between pathologic and radiologic tumor staging (Kappa=0.731, P=0.000). MRI correctly staged lymph node status in 31 patients, understaged in 5 patients and overstaged in 6 patients. Statistically, there was a common correlation between pathologic and radiologic lymph node staging (Kappa=0.410, P=0.009). MRI correctly reported the status of the CRM in 40 patients. Statistically, there was the best correlation between pathologic and radiologic reporting of CRM involvement (Kappa=0.829, P=0.000). Conclusion Preoperative highresolution MRI scans has a good concordance with pathologic tumor stage but common with pathologic lymph node stage. Preoperative highresolution MRI can provide reliable information about CRM and thus help to choose which patient could benefit from the preoperative neoadjuvant therapy.
ObjectiveTo analyze the risk factors for seizures in patients with autoimmune encephalitis (AE) and to assess their predictive value for seizures. MethodsSeventy-four patients with AE from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2016 to March 2023 were collected and divided into seizure group (56 cases) and non-seizure group (18 cases), comparing the general clinical information, laboratory tests and imaging examinations and other related data of the two groups. The risk factors for seizures in AE patients were analyzed by multifactorial logistic regression, and their predictive value was assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. ResultsThe seizure group had a higher proportion of acute onset conditions in the underlying demographics compared with the non-seizure group (P<0.05). Laboratory data showed statistically significant differences in neutrophil count, calcitoninogen, lactate dehydrogenase, C-reactive protein, homocysteine, and interleukin-6 compared between the two groups (all P<0.05). Multi-factor logistic regression analysis of the above differential indicators showed that increased C-reactive protein [Odds ratio (OR)=4.621, 95% CI (1.123, 19.011), P=0.034], high homocysteine [OR=12.309, 95CI (2.217, 68.340), P=0.004] and onset of disease [OR=4.918, 95% CI (1.254, 19.228), P=0.022] were risk factors for seizures in AE patients, and the area under the ROC curve for the combination of the three indicators to predict seizures in AE patients was 0.856 [95% CI (0.746, 0.966)], with a sensitivity of 73.2% and a specificity of 83.3%. ConclusionHigh C-reactive protein, high homocysteine and acute onset are independent risk factors for seizures in patients with AE, and the combination of the three indices can better predict seizure status in patients.
Objective To explore the clinical application and effect of infrared thermal imager in blood flow monitoring after skin flap surgery by comparing with skin-contact thermometer. Methods Fifty patients who had undergone flap repair in the microsurgery ward of Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine between October 2019 and October 2020 were enrolled. An infrared thermal imager (FLIR ONE Pro) and a skin-contact thermometer were applied to monitor the skin temperature change till 7 d after surgery. The time consumed of using infrared thermal imager and skin-contact thermometer by different nurses, the efficacy of flap temperature monitoring of the two devices, the temperatures at different time points by using the two devices, and the temperatures under different distances to the flaps by using infrared thermal imager were compared. Results Different nurses had no difference in operating either of the two devices (P>0.05). It took significantly less time to measure the temperature of the flap area with the infrared thermal imager than using skin-contact thermometer [(39.28±3.52) vs. (103.85±9.09) s, P<0.001]. The skin temperature measured by the infrared thermal imager was significantly higher than that by the skin-contact thermometer (P<0.001), and the skin temperature measured by the infrared thermal imager at a height of 30 cm was higher than that at a height of 50 cm (P=0.006), but the temperature change amplitudes were both stable. Conclusions Infrared thermal imager is superior to skin-contact thermometer in terms of temperature measurement time, ease of operation, and sensitivity to temperature changes after skin flap operations. The thermal image collected by infrared thermal imager can provide an important basis for the identification of flap vascular crisis. It is a visual and objective blood supply monitoring equipment.
Objective To investigates the awareness of medical staff on prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) . Methods Between April and July 2014, health workers from towns and cities of Liangshan Prefecture participated in the class of prevention of HIV PMTCT for key areas in Sichuan province. Those participants, together with some other health workers from the same area whose daily work was related to prevention of PMTCT, were selected as the study subjects. PMTCT prevention knowledge survey questionnaire was given out for the investigation, and chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results We retrieved altogether 447 (out of 450) valid questionnaires. Of all the respondents, 94.18% were aware of proper time for HIV antibody testing and routes of transmission in the perinatal period, 95.30% knew the strategy of applying as early as possible antiviral drugs during pregnancy, and 86.58% learned to know when to give the first dose to the newborns and avoidance of breast-feeding. However, the awareness of relevant applied knowledge was relatively low. The total awareness rate of medical workers from women and children’s hospitals were significantly better than that of medical workers from general hospitals (P<0.05), and differences of the awareness depended on different specialties, professional titles and working age (P<0.05). Conclusions The majority of medical personnel in the surveyed area have grasped basic knowledge of PMTCT of HIV, but the ability of applying relevant knowledge precisely, promptly and standardly in daily practices needs to be improved. We recommend that, in addition to strengthening routine training on knowledge of PMTCT of HIV, the mastering and practice of key technical intervention strategies should be followed up and evaluated, especially for those from general hospitals. And it is also important to give training and after-training assessment based on different specialties.
