ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the relationship between professional identification and learning engagement, as well as the role of academic self-efficacy as a mediating factor between ideological and political education majors.Methods:Totally 441 students majoring in ideological and political education were collected from four local universities by cluster sampling method, and professional identity scale, learning engagement scale and academic self-efficacy scale were used for investigation. SPSS 26.0 was used for descriptive analysis and correlation analysis, and AMOS 24.0 was used to conduct structural equation modeling and Bootstrap mediating effect test.Results:The scores of professional identity, academic self-efficacy and learning engagement were (3.854±0.515), (3.496±0.426) and (4.900±0.899). Professional identity was positively correlated with learning engagement ( r=0.658, P<0.01), professional identity was positively correlated with academic self-efficacy ( r=0.735, P<0.01), academic self-efficacy was positively correlated with learning engagement ( r=0.756, P<0.01). Academic self-efficacy played partial mediating role in the relationship between professional identity and learning engagement(effect value=0.266, 95% CI=0.178-0.404), accounted for 63.64% of the total effect. Conclusion:Professional identity can directly affect college students' learning engagement, and also indirectly affect learning engagement through academic self-efficacy.

ABSTRACT
Objectives@#To analyze the cardiac T2* value, liver iron concentration (LIC) , and related laboratory parameters in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with iron overload and evaluate the changes of organ functions after iron chelation therapy. To explore the value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) T2* in making early diagnosis and assessing organs iron overload.@*Methods@#Retrospective investigation was used to observe the cardiac T2* value, LIC, iron metabolism parameters and related laboratory parameters of 85 MDS patients from Nov 2014 to Jan 2018. Among them, 7 MDS patients with Low/Int-1 have received iron chelation therapy for 6 months during two MRI examinations. The above parameters were collected before and after iron chelation therapy for comparison.@*Results@#Correlations were found between heart T2* value and age (rs=-0.290, P=0.007) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (rs=0.265, P=0.009) . There was a significant negative correlation between heart T2* value and blood transfusion units (rs=-0.701, P<0.001) . There was a significant positive correlation between LIC and serum ferritin (SF) (rs=0.577, P<0.001) . There was also a correlation between LIC and ALT (rs=0.268, P=0.014) and blood transfusion units (rs=0.244, P=0.034) . There was no correlation between heart T2* and pro-BNP, SF (all P>0.05) , and no correlation between LIC and age (P>0.05) . The increase of heart T2* between the normal and abnormal groups was statistically significant (P=0.005) , but the iron overload ratio of the heart T2*<20 ms was not significant between the two groups. There was statistical significance in the proportion of severe liver iron overload (LIC>15 mg/g DW) (P=0.045) . After iron chelation therapy, the values of SF, transferrin saturation, ALT, AST, pro-BNP and LIC of 7 patients were decreased compared with values before iron chelation therapy, and the peripheral blood cell level was increased. However, the changes of LVEF and T2* values after iron chelation were not obvious.@*Conclusion@#MRI T2* may be a predictor of iron overload in patients with MDS in early stage, and may be more valuable compare with LVEF, SF and other laboratory indicators. The safety and repeatability of MRI cardiac T2* examination are recognized, and it can be used as an ideal detection for patients with iron overload.
ABSTRACT
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) uses the diffusion motion of water molecules to describe the spatial structure of brain.DTI,which can obtain the infiltration of brain tumors into normal physiological structures,makes the diagnosis of diseases change from macroscopic to microscopic,from morphology to both morphology and metabolism,bringing new opportunities for the diagnosis and treatment of brain tumors.In this review,we outlined the theoretical basis and current technical limitations of DTI,and comprehensively discussed its research values in brain tumors radiotherapy treatment and its prognostic value.We believe that DTI can provide important imaging information for radiotherapy planning of brain tumors.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To identify clinical and molecular signatures for predicting response to decitabine (DAC) in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and related neoplasms.@*Methods@#The clinical characteristics of 109 patients with MDS and related neoplasms who were treated with DAC were analyzed retrospectively and the next target sequencing was performed to define recurrently mutated genes in these disease samples, to examine the association of the clinical and molecular signatures with response to DAC treatment.@*Results@#Of 109 MDS and related neoplasms patients, there were 70 males and 39 females, the median age was 61 years old (ranges: 17-85 years old) . According to the international prognostic scoring system (IPSS) , 46 cases were included in the relatively low risk group (low risk and intermediate-1 risk) , 63 in the relative high risk group (intermediate-2 and high risk) . There were 21 cases with complex karyotype, 17 chromosome 7 abnormality and 17 monosomal karyotype. The median courses of DAC treatment was 4 (2-11) . A total of 74 patients achieved response (67.9%) and 30 (27.5%) achieved complete response (CR) . Univariate analysis found that CR was higher in patients with high risk of IPSS, complex karyotypes, monosomal karyotypes, chromosome 7 abnormality, and platelet doubling after one cycle of DAC treatment. Patients with TP53 gene mutation were more likely to receive CR, 10 of 15 patients with TP53 mutations achieved CR. (66.7%) , which was significantly higher than that of the patients without TP53 gene mutation (21.3%) (P=0.001) . Multivariate analysis showed that TP53 gene mutation, platelet doubling after one cycle of DAC treatment and the complex karyotype were independent prognostic factors for CR. Of them, TP53 gene mutation is the strongest predictor (OR=4.39, 95%CI, 1.20-16.06, P=0.026) .@*Conclusion@#TP53 mutation, platelet doubling after one cycle of DAC treatment and complex karyotypes could predict CR to DAC.

ABSTRACT
20?10~9/L. This regimen was given for one course for induction, and was followed by conventional chemotherapy as maintenance or consolidation when complete remission(CR) achieved, or succeeding with other treatment when no response could be observed. Results Six patients achieved CR (54.5%) and one achieved partial remission (PR)(9.1%) with one course of treatment. Among 6 of 11 patients with CR, 5 relapsed at 2,3,6,8 and 16 months respectively. Three relapsed patients were retreated with the same protocol but achieved only one partial responses. Nine of the 11 patients had been died and their mean survival (since induction chemotherapy) was 9.2 months. Infectious complications during cytopenia were less serious than conventional chemotherapy withno treatment-related.Conclusion This moderate intensity protocol with G-CSF priming is effective and safe but remissions are of short duration.
