利用CNV-seq技术产前诊断Pallister-Killian综合征胎儿一例

应用拷贝数变异测序(copy number variation sequencing,CNV-seq)技术鉴别来源不明的胎儿标记染色体,明确其遗传物质的来源,并探讨此技术在产前诊断中的应用价值。讨论Pallister-Killian综合征(Pallister-Killian syndrome,PKS)的临床特征及遗传学特点,提高对此类罕见染色体疾病的认识。该病例因在妊娠中期超声发现胎儿异常而行羊水穿刺进行CNV-Seq检测,同时分析胎儿和父母的核型。羊水CNV-Seq结果示该样本12号染色体p13.33-p11.1处检测到拷贝数为3.5、片段大小为34.70 Mb的嵌合重复区域;羊水染色体核型结果为47,XY,+i(12)(p10)[58]/46,XX[42],综合上述结果考虑为PKS。通过结合超声结果,综合应用染色体G显带核型分析和CNV-seq技术能准确确认染色体异常片段来源,在产前有效诊断PKS患者。     

模拟诊疗在留学生心血管内科实习带教中的应用研究

目的　探讨模拟诊疗在留学生心血管内科实习带教中的应用效果。方法　将35名留学生随机编号，分成试验组和对照组。试验组18名学生分成3组（每组6名）进行模拟诊疗教学，对照组17名学生进行常规实习。通过填写评价单和相关的临床能力测试对两组教学效果进行评价。选用SPSS 19.0软件进行t检验。结果　参与模拟诊疗教学的留学生均希望在各科实习中多采用此方法。在临床能力测试方面，试验组学生在病史采集[（22.16±2.17）vs.（20.33±2.03）]、体格检查[（23.05±1.79）vs.（19.78±2.05）]及回答问题[（23.50±1.47）vs.（19.56±1.92）]方面均优于对照组，差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）。但是在病历书写方面，两组差异无统计学意义（P>0.05）。结论　利用高仿真的模拟诊疗教学手段，弥补了留学生在实习期间不能充分接触患者的缺陷，有助于提高其临床操作技能、增强医患沟通能力等医学职业素养。     

甘肃省和政县农村老年性白内障防盲项目的卫生经济学评价研究

目的 对2014-2016年在甘肃省和政县开展的白内障综合防盲干预项目进行卫生经济学评价。设计 横断面调查。 研究对象 甘肃省和政县2014-2016年老年性白内障手术前407例患者及术后半年109例患者。方法 对所有调查对象进行卫生经济学问卷调查。通过净效益法、成本效益分析法和成本效果分析法评价项目产生的经济效益和总成本。主要指标 直接成本、间接成本、直接经济效益、间接经济效益、总成本、总效益、净效益、成本效益比、成本效果比。结果 2014-2016年项目期间甘肃省和政县白内障所致总体疾病经济负担为2142.28万元。白内障手术产生的总效益为3398424.98元，总成本为2939125.20元，净效益为459299.78元，效益成本比为1.16:1。项目每投入1万元可降低50岁以上白内障患者导致的0.027%的致盲率和0.164%致残率；项目每降低1%的50岁以上白内障患者的盲率，需投入36.47万元；每降低1%50岁以上白内障患者的残率，需投入6.11万元。结论 在甘肃省和政县开展的老年性白内障防盲综合干预项目具有较好的产出回报比和较高的防盲技术效率。（眼科，2020，29： 298-303）     

D6S1043、D12S391基因座与主动攻击行为的关联研究

目的:探讨D6S1043、D12S391基因座的基因多态性对主动攻击行为的影响。方法:应用聚合酶链反应技术结合毛细管电泳法对114例男性主动攻击行为者(研究组)及120名健康男性(对照组)进行D6S1043、D12S391基因座的基因型及等位基因检测,分析D6S1043、D12S391基因座多态性与主动攻击行为的相关性。结果:研究组D6S1043基因座中12~19基因型频率(13.16%)明显高于对照组(1.67%)(P0.05);两组等位基因频率差异无统计学意义;两组D12S391基因座的基因型及等位基因频率差异无统计学意义。结论:D6S1043基因座中12~19基因型可能主动攻击行为有关。

Severe lumbar spinal stenosis combined with Guillain-Barré syndrome: A case report

BACKGROUNDGuillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare disorder that typically presents with ascending weakness, pain, paraesthesias, and numbness, which mimic the findings in lumbar spinal stenosis. Here, we report a case of severe lumbar spinal stenosis combined with GBS.CASE SUMMARYA 70-year-old man with a history of lumbar spinal stenosis presented to our emergency department with severe lower back pain and lower extremity numbness. Magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the diagnosis of severe lumbar spinal stenosis. However, his symptoms did not improve postoperatively and he developed dysphagia and upper extremity numbness. An electromyogram was performed. Based on his symptoms, physical examination, and electromyogram, he was diagnosed with GBS. After 5 d of intravenous immunoglobulin (0.4 g/kg/d for 5 d) therapy, he gained 4/5 of strength in his upper and lower extremities and denied paraesthesias. He had regained 5/5 of strength in his extremities when he was discharged and had no symptoms during follow-up.CONCLUSIONGBS should be considered in the differential diagnosis of spinal disorder, even though magnetic resonance imaging shows severe lumbar spinal stenosis. This case highlights the importance of a careful diagnosis when a patient has a history of a disease and comes to the hospital with the same or similar symptoms.
