Article Synopsis
- The study examines how the rs7903146 polymorphism of the TCF7L2 gene is linked to metabolic syndrome, plasma lipoproteins, and adiponectin levels in Chinese Korean and Han populations.
- Methods included DNA sequencing to identify genotypes in 310 Chinese Koreans and 344 Chinese Han individuals, while insulin and adiponectin levels were measured using ELIAS.
- Findings suggest that the T allele is more common in Han individuals than in Koreans but less prevalent than in Europeans and Africans; it appears to be a risk factor for essential hypertension in Koreans and affects adiponectin levels, indicating lower levels could contribute to metabolic syndrome.
In order to explore the educational model of combined research aidding basic medical education and clinical practice, the educational form of combined research, teaching and clinical practice was adopted and brought into the education of medical genetics for medical students. The consequence of five-year educational practice has revealed that the educational effects and quality have been obviously increased, and the deeply activated studying initiative, self-studying ability, ability of cooperation, discovering and creative ability have been achieved in culturing practical general medical students with in-depth basic knowledge, great ability and high quality.
