Recurrent miscarriage is a common disease in clinical obstetrics and gynecology. There is no curative treatment for recurrent miscarriage in conventional medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been widely used in the treatment of recurrent miscarriage in China for thousands of years. However, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with high quality evaluating the effectiveness and safety of Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) still lack. This study was conducted in order to identify methodological problems in published or unpublished RCTs of CHM in the treatment of recurrent miscarriage, and provide suggestions for TCM researchers to conduct high-quality clinical research.

Objective To observe and scale knee joint space of the patients who suffered adults' Kaschin-Beck disease (KBD) in Shangzhi City of Heilongjiang Province in order to acquire basic knowledge for upcoming intervention trial. Methods Clinical test was proceeded in adults aged above 40 in Guanghui Village of Shangzhi City in 2007. In typical patients, bilateral knee X-ray was taken and knee joint space was scaled. Three points were chosen on inner and outer epicondyle of each knee and results were recorded. Results There were 307 peoples over the age of 40 in the village. Two hundred eighty-two accepted clinical test, in a rate of 91.9%. Eighty out of 282 suffered KBD, accounting for 28.4%. When the patients' condition became more serious, measurements from flank, middle, inside points on outer epicondyle of joint space presented a narrowing trend [degree Ⅰ: (5.85±0.17), (4.84±0.17), (4.36±0.18)mm; degree Ⅱ: (5.11±0.43), (4.24±0.34), (3.48±0.28)nun; degree Ⅲ: (3.59± 0.78), (3.10±0.56), (2.14±0.62)mm; Fflank,middle,inside= 6.547,5.372,10.302, all P < 0.05], but those on inner epicondyle of joint space did not[degree Ⅰ:(3.66±0.17), (3.47±0.17), (3.73±0.18)mm; degree Ⅱ:(3.55± 0.34), (3.54±0.29), (4.35±0.35)mm; degree Ⅲ: (3.19±0.72), (3.92±0.66), (4.51±0.72)ram; Finside,middle,flank= 0.351,0.356,1.883, all P > 0.05]. Joint space < 5.00 mm were found in 618, among which 363 were measured on inner epieondyle, obviously greater than those measured on outer epicondyle of joint space(255), the difference being statistically signifieant(χ2=9.59, P<0.05). Conclusions Adult cases of KBD occur in Guanghui Village. Knee joint space of adult patients narrows obviously, the more serious, the narrower, especially occurring more obviously on outer epicondyle, but frequently on inner epicondyle.

Objective:To investigate the effect of JAK2 V617F gene mutation status and burden on BCR-ABL-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN).Methods:Clinical data of 199 patients with MPN in Cangzhou Central Hospital in Hebei Province from September 2015 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, and the correlations of JAK2 V617F gene mutation burden with clinicopathological features and prognostic score of MPN patients were analyzed.Results:Of the 199 BCR-ABL-negative MPN patients, 138 patients (69.4%) were positive for JAK2 V617F mutation; of these patients, 64 (88.9%) of 72 patients with polycythemia vera (PV) were mutation-positive, 54 (53.5%) of 101 patients with essential thrombocytosis (ET) were positive, 20 (80.0%) of 25 patients with myelofibrosis (MF) were mutation-positive, and 1 patient with hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) was mutation-positive. About 55.1% (76/138) of patients had a high JAK2 V617F mutation burden. The mutation burden in PV group was the highest, MF was the second, and ET was the lowest; the mutation burdens in these three groups were (73.9±18.3)%, (59.9±25.2)% and (25.0±16.5)%, respectively. Mutation burden was positively correlated with the white blood cell counts of patients with PV, ET and MF ( r values were 0.626, 0.675 and 0.796, all P < 0.01). JAK2 V617F mutation burden was positively correlated with the prognostic scores of patients with PV and ET ( r values were 0.296 and 0.404, both P < 0.05). Conclusion:The JAK2 V617F mutation burden of BCR-ABL-negative MPN patients is related to clinicopathological factors, and the prognosis of patients with high JAK2 V617F mutation burden is poor.

Objective: To investigate the effects of Rehannia glutinosa decoction (RGD)、 Rehmannia glutinosa polysaccharide (RGP) and Rehmannia glutinosa non polysaccharide (RGNP) on peripheral hemogram in mice. Methods: The first experimental group were continuously given RGD、RGP and RGNP for nine days, and then blood sample was taken from tails for determination of peripheral hemogram. The second group were given RGD、RGP and RGNP for five days, after making the blood difficiency model of cyclophosphamide. Determinating peripheral hemogram of the third group, after that those mice were given cyclophosphamide by 2 days, 4 days, 6 days, 8 days. Results: Peripheral hemogram of the every normal group has no difference. To compare the model of blood difficiency group and the control group, there were significant differences, RGNP can only enhance WBC. Both RGP and RGNP can reduce WBC of the mice model of anti cyclophosphamide, while RGP was superior to RGNP. Conclusion: Rehmannia glutinosa has dual directional adjustment function. RGP is tonifying blood active fraction of RG.

Abstract: Objective To explore the correlation between the levels of silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) and forkhead box protein O3 (FOXO3) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis (APTB) and macrophage-related cytokines-inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and arginase-1 (Arg-1). Methods A total of 64 APTB patients who were treated in Yubei Hospital, the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2020 to December 2021 were gathered as the APTB group, 59 people with latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) were gathered as the LTBI group, and 62 healthy people were gathered as the control group. Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) method was performed to measure the levels of SIRT1 mRNA and FOXO3 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to measure serum iNOS and Arg-1 levels; ROC curve was used to analyze the value of SIRT1 mRNA and FOXO3 mRNA levels in the differential diagnosis of LTBI and APTB; Pearson correlation was performed to analyze the correlation of SIRT1 mRNA and FOXO3 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of APTB patients with serum iNOS and Arg-1 levels. Results The levels of SIRT1 mRNA, FOXO3 mRNA and serum iNOS in peripheral blood mononuclear cells decreased in control group, LTBI group and APTB group, and the level of serum Arg-1 increased in turn (P<0.05). The AUCs of SIRT1 mRNA and FOXO3 mRNA in differential diagnosis of LTBI and APTB were 0.876 and 0.887, respectively, the sensitivity was 71.2% and 76.3%, and the specificity was 96.9% and 90.6% respectively. The levels of SIRT1 mRNA and FOXO3 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of APTB patients were positively correlated (r=0.500, P<0.05), and they were positively correlated with serum iNOS and negatively correlated with serum Arg-1 (P<0.05). The SIRT1 mRNA, FOXO3 mRNA and serum iNOS in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of APTB patients after 6 months of treatment were higher than those before treatment, and serum Arg-1 was lower than before treatment (P<0.05). Conclusions The levels of SIRT1 mRNA and FOXO3 mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of APTB patients are low, and they are positively correlated with macrophage-related cytokine iNOS and negatively correlated with Arg-1.
