This paper firstly expounded the origin of the ritual-music culture.Then it explored the nature of the ritual-music culture which respects the laws of nature,bases on the position,sticks to the rules,exerts subjective initiative,fulfillseach duty,promotes harmony,unifies objectivity and subjectivity,complements each other and pursuits civilization.Analysis of the ritual-music culture provided inner value pursuit,conscientious code of conduct and healthy mental attitude for the construction of a harmonious doctor-patient relationship,which is of great theoretical and practical significance to handle the doctor-patient relationship properly.

AIM:Increasing evidence indicates that inflammation contributes to the initiation and perpetuation of atrial fibrillation ( AF) .Al-though tumor necrosis factor ( TNF)-αlevels are increased in patients with AF , the role of TNF-αin the pathogenesis of AF remains unclear.Recent research has revealed that T-type Ca2+currents ( ICa,T ) play an important role in the pathogenesis of AF .METH-ODS:In this study , we used the whole-cell voltage-clamp technique and biochemical assays to explore the role of TNF-αin the regula-tion of ICa,T in atrial myocytes.RESULTS:We found that compared with sinus rhythm (SR) controls, T-type calcium channel (TCC) subunit mRNA levels were decreased , while TNF-αexpression levels were increased , in human atrial tissue from patients with AF .In murine atrial myocyte HL-1 cells, after cultured for 24 h, 12.5, 25 and 50 μg/L TNF-αsignificantly reduced the protein expression levels of the TCC α1G subunit in a concentration-dependent manner .The peak current was reduced by the application of 12.5 or 25μg/L TNF-αin a concentration-dependent manner [from ( -15.08 ±1.11) pA/pF in controls to ( -11.89 ±0.83) pA/pF and (-8.54 ±1.55) pA/pF in 12.5 and 25 μg/L TNF-αgroups, respectively].TNF-αapplication also inhibited voltage-dependent inactivation of ICa,T shifted the inactivation curve to the left .CONCLUSION:These results suggest that TNF-αis involved in the path-ogenesis of AF, probably via decreasing ICa,T function in atrium-derived myocytes through impaired channel function and down -regula-tion of channel protein expression .This pathway thus represents a potential pathogenic mechanism in AF .

Objective:To investigate the clinical manifestations, imaging features, histopathological features, diagnostic pitfalls, treatment and prognosis of clear cell chondrosarcoma (CCCS).Methods:23 cases of CCCS admitted and operated from January 2010 to January 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. Among the 23 cases, 21 were males and 2 were females. There were 8 cases (35%) aged 21-40, 10 cases (43%) aged 41-60 and 5 cases (23%) aged 61-80. There were 8 femurs, 7 pelvis, 4 thoracolumbar spine, 3 sacrum and 1 tibia. The specimens were fixed with 10% phosphate-buffered formalin, decalcified with 5% nitric acid, embedded in paraffin and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and immunohistochemistry (Envision). The preoperative imaging and clinical symptoms, and the postoperative histopathological and immunophenotype under the microscope were collected. And the relevant literature was reviewed to summarize the clinical, imaging and pathomorphological characteristics of CCCS.Results:23 cases of CCCS showed bone destruction in imaging, some cases were well-circumscribed lytic lesions, some cases had sclerotic margin. The serum alkaline phosphatase was increased in 7 patients before operation. The tumor tissue was gray-white and gray-red in general and some cases showed porcelain white cartilage-like areas. Microscopically, the tumor cells are round or polygonal, some of them have clear cytoplasm and boundary, some of them are eosinophilic, some of them have round and centrally located nuclei, and mitotic image is rare. It is often seen that there are nodular distribution of cartilage-like matrix and immature woven bone, multinucleated osteoclast-like giant cell scattered in those components. Immunohistochemical staining: S-100, D2-40, EMA, Vimentin, p16, SATB2 can be positive in varying degrees. The surgical treatment is mainly through en bloc excision. 10 patients had recurrence and no distant metastasis.Conclusion:CCCS is a rare subtype of chondrosarcoma, which has low-grade malignant biological behavior and is easy to be misdiagnosed clinically and pathologically. Pathological diagnosis needs to be careful. Careful observation of microscopic histology is necessary in order to avoid over-diagnosis of osteosarcoma leading to clinical treatment errors. Once the biopsy is confirmed, it needs en bloc excision in order to reduce the recurrence rate. Long-term follow-up is needed after the operation, the overall prognosis was good.

Objective:Based on the cost-effectiveness,it aimed to assess the health benefits amd economic value of screening,di-agnosis,treatment,and optimal delicacy management of liver disease in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)patients.Methods:A Deci-sion tree-Markov model was developed to compare the cost-effectiveness of HCC screening and long-term surveillance versus no screening in population at risk from the health care system perspective.Results:It is found that HCC screening was a cost-effective approach compared to no screening(Incremental Cost-Effectiveness Ratio[ICER]:17 790 yuan/QALY).Scenario analyses suggested that initiating HCC screening at the age of 40,as recommended by clinical guidelines,and implementing long-term surveillance based on risk stratification were more cost-effective.Conclusions:For the implementation of HCC screening programs,attention should be paid to improving participation and compliance among the population at risk,incorporating advanced screening methods,improving management efficiency with digital tools,and introducing innovative payment methods to reduce economic burden.
