Objective To explore the effect of acupuncture and moxibustion combined with quadriceps exercise on osteoarthritis of knee joint. Methods 82 cases of knee osteoarthritis were randomly divided into the acup-moxibustion group (41 cases, treated with acup-moxibustion and quadriceps exercise treatment) and routine treatment group (41 cases). Lower limb ability of daily life respectively and knee pain of patients before and 30 days after treatment were evaluated. Results Clinical symptoms of patients in both groups were improved significantly after treatment. The acup-moxibustion group was better than traditional group in relieving pain and improving the lower limb ability of daily life (P<0.01). Conclusion The acup-moxibustion therapy combined with quadriceps exercise has preferable clinical curative effect on knee osteoarthritis.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of comprehensive rehabilitation on the patients with craniocerebral trauma. Methods85 cases with craniocerebral trauma were subjected to the rehabilitation training supplemented with hyperbaric oxygen and acupuncture and ultrasound therapy in addition to routine neurosurgical operation. Before and after treatment,Glasgow coma scale (GCS), Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA) and Barthel index were assessed and compared. ResultsAfter comprehensive rehabilitation therapy, the degree of coma, limbs motion and activities of daily living were improved significantly (P<0.01).ConclusionComprehensive rehabilitation is effective on the patients with craniocerbral trauma.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum uric acid and pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). Methods The echocardiography, electrocardiogram, nailfold videocapillaroscopy and laboratory parameters of 62 patients with SSc were retrospectively analyzed . Patients were divided into two groups according to presence of PH . Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 17 software . Results Compared to patients without PH , patients with PH had significantly higher serum uric acid levels ( P < 0 . 01 ) , systolic pulmonary arterial pressure ( P < 0 . 01 ) , abnormality of electrocardiogram (P < 0.01), abnormality of nailfold video capillaroscopy and lower serum albunin levels (P < 0.01). Systolic pulmonary arterial pressure had correlation with Serum UA ( r = 0 . 26 , P < 0 . 01 ) as well as serum ablumin (r = -0.28, P < 0.03). Moreover, the mean value of serum UA was significantly different in two ECG groups (P < 0.01) and two nailfold videocapillaroscopy groups (P < 0.01). At the cutoff level of 374 μmol/L, serum uric acid had reasonable accuracy for predicting the presence of PH in SSc patients ( sensitivity 66 . 7% and specificity 84 . 0%) . Conclusion The serum uric acid may be useful as a practicable marker for predict PH in patients with SSc .

Objective To assess the quality of life(QOL) in rheumatoid arthritis(RA) patients treated with 12weeks of aerobic exercise(AE) plus medication(methotrexate, MTX, and NSAIDs). Methods The research design was a randomized controlled trial. The patients in AE group received AE plus MTX and NSAIDs, and the patients in the control group received drug therapy only. Results One hundred and twenty six patients completed the trial, AE patients with improvement of 12%~28% from the baseline were better than medicine treated patients in the physical, social, emotional function, self recognized health status and total QOL. Conclusion AE is effective for the patients with RA in the improvement of QOL.

AIM: To investigate the relationship between TRPM3 and diabetes-induced painful peripheral neuropathy. METHODS: Treptozotocin (STZ) was intraperitoneal injected for establishment of diabetic mice model, behavioral tests of paw withdraw thresholds (PWTs) and paw withdraw latencies (PWLs) were conducted; Protein contents and tyrosine phosphorylation levels of TRPM3 were detected by immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting. RESULTS: The PWTs and PWLs in diabetic mice were significantly reduced; TRPM3 tyrosine phosphorylation in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of diabetic mice significantly increased compared with control, while the protein expression shows no statistical significance; Enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of TRPM3 by BPV can evoke heat hyperalgesia in intact mice; Reduce of the tyrosine phosphorylation levels of TRPM3 through PP2 significantly alleviates diabetes-induced heat hyperalgesia, without affecting mechanical allodynia. CONCLUSION: The upregulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of TRPM3 plays a key role in heat related painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate therapeutic e fficacy and safety of differen t doses of Secukinumab in the treatment of medium and severe ankylosing spondylitis (AS), and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment of AS. METHODS: Retrieved from Medline , PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, VIP, CJFD, Wanfang database andpu- ClinicalTrials.gov, during the inception to March 2020, xiaofeng1205@outlook.com randomized controlled trials (RCTs)about different doses of secukinumab (75, 150, 300 mg) versus placebo in the treatment of medium and severe AS were collected. After data extraction of clinical studies met the inclusion criteria ,quality evaluation with Cochrane risk bias evaluation tool 5.1.0,Rev Man 5.3 statistical software was used for Meta-analysis of therapeutic efficacy [in the international society for the evaluation of spondyloarthritis scale ,the proportion of 20% patients improved (ASAS20);ASAS40;among 6 routine clinical areas related to AS,the scores of at least 5 areas improved by at least 20%,and there was no patients receiving treatment due to deterioration in other areas (ASAS 5/6);remission value of Bath ankylosing spondylitis disease activity index (BASDAI)from baseline to 16th week,the proportion of the patients with the international society for the evaluation of ankylosing spondyloarthritis (ASAS PR ) score no higher than 2 in the 4 ASAS fields within the specified time] and safety [the incidence of withdrawal from treatment due to ADR,the incidence of serious ADR ,the incidence of general ADR (nasopharyngitis,headache,diarrhea)]. RESULTS :A total of 5 RCTs were included ,involving 1 624 patients. Meta-analysis showed that ASAS 20 [total:OR=2.62,95%CI(2.14,3.20),P< 0.000 01;75 mg:OR=2.63,95%CI(1.28,5.40),P=0.008;150 mg:OR=2.58,95%CI(2.01,3.32),P<0.000 01;300 mg:OR=2.63,95%CI(1.37,5.06),P=0.004],ASAS40 [total:OR=2.82,95%CI(2.13,3.74),P<0.000 01;75 mg:OR= 3.14,95%CI(1.86,5.31),P<0.000 1;150 mg:OR=2.79,95%CI(1.85,4.20),P<0.000 01;300 mg:OR=2.73,95%CI (1.33,5.58),P=0.006],ASAS5/6 [total:OR=3.82,95%CI(2.61,5.59),P<0.000 01;75 mg:OR=5.59,95%CI(3.29, 9.49),P<0.000 01;150 mg:OR=3.45,95%CI(2.08,5.70),P<0.000 01;300 mg:OR=3.85,95%CI(1.75,8.47),P= 0.000 8],ASAS PR [total :OR=4.69,95%CI(3.07,7.16),P<0.000 01;75 mg:OR=5.48,95%CI(2.50,11.99),P<0.000 1; 150 mg:OR=3.71,95%CI(2.19,6.29),P<0.000 01;300 mg:OR=20.0,95%CI(2.58,155.14),P=0.004] in trial group was significantly higher than control group ;BASDAI improvement [total :WMD=-1.15,95%CI(-1.50,-0.79),P<0.000 01; 75 mg:WMD=-1.40,95%CI(-2.08,-0.72),P<0.000 1;150 mg:WMD=-1.03,95%CI(-1.52,-0.54),P< 0.000 1;300 mg:WMD=-1.20,95%CI(-2.03,-0.37),P=0.005] of trial group were significantly higher than those of control group ,with statistical significance.
