BACKGROUND: Recent studies have reported that more and more methods were used to prevent and cure tendon adhesion following tendon rupture by repairing tendinous sheath. Especially, amnion membrane is commonly used to effective prevent and cure adhesion and promote healing of biomembrane; however, the effect on tendon adhesion needs to be further studied. OBJECTIVE: To verify the efficacy of amnion membrane preserved in Honghua injection on preventing and curing tendon adhesion following transplanting into foot flexor tendon. METHODS: Bilateral foot flexor tendons of 32 healthy mature chickens were cut off. By anastomosis, amnion membrane preserved in Honghua injection was transplanted into left foot flexor tendon, considering as experimental group. Right foot flexor tendons were randomly divided into two groups: blank control group, anastomosis was performed alone; positive control group, amnion membrane not preserved in any injections was transplanted. At 4 weeks after fixation by plaster cast, sliding function of tendon was detected using biomechanics, and local samples were obtained for histopathological observation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the experimental group, broken end of left tendon was well healed; fiber tissues were formed surrounding tendon; tissue adhesion was not observed surrounding tendon. Proliferative quantity and adhesion of fiber tissues, as well as content of hydroxyproline in the experimental group were significantly less than in the blank control and positive control groups (P < 0.05, P < 0.01); total inflexion angle of articulationes digitorum pedis and slipping distance of flexor digitorum profundus tendon in the experimental group were significantly greater than in the blank control and positive control groups (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The results indicated that amnion membrane preserved in Honghua injection might prevent tendon adhesion and effectively promote tendon healing.

Objective:To study the experience of frontline medical workers in COVID-19 quarantine points.Methods:Purposive sampling method was employed and 12 frontline medical workers in COVID-19 points of Zhaoyuan City were selected for semi-structured and in-depth interview. Colaizzi′s seven-step analysis method was adopted to analyze and categorize the data.Results:The real experience of frontline medical workers in quarantine points were classified into five themes: professional mission and pride, inadequate initial response in dealing with public health emergencies (shortage of personal protective equipment,inadequate preparation of medical workers and imperfect settings of quarantine points), having some negative emotions (worrying about being infected and feeling fearful for family members), facing complex and diverse working difficulties (repugnance and diversified demands of people quarantined, heavy workload, discomfort from personal protective equipment and occupational exposure), and gaining support and appreciation (getting support from epidemic control and prevention departments as well as medical systems and winning appreciation from people quarantined).Conclusions:The frontline medical workers are lack of experience in dealing with public health emergencies and have some psychological and working pressure. Administrative department should further complete the emergency plan of centralized isolation medical observation, strengthen the contingency management of public health emergencies, attach importance to the mental health of medical workers, optimize management methods and establish flexible work schedules.

Objective To investigate the cerebral infarction patterns and pathogenesis in patients with internal carotid artery (ICA) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) severe stenosis (the degree of stenosis 70%- 99% ) or occlusion in order to provide evidence for the individualized prevention and treatment strategies. Methods Seventy-six patients with acute cerebral infarction who showed the responsible lesions at the corresponding MCA territory on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into ICA lesion, MCA lesion and negative result on digital subtraction angiography and CT angiogaphy (NR) groups according to the vascular examinations. Their infarcts were divided into single and multiple infarctions. According to the positions, the former was divided into perforating artery infarct (PAI), pial infarct (PI), and border-zone infarct (BZ). Results The infarct morphologies in the MCA territory were divided into 9 types. The different lesions caused infarct morphologies were different (x2 =34. 000, P =0. 001). The distribution pattern of multiinfarcts accounted for 73.68% of all patients (56/76). The distribution pattern of PAI + PI in the ICA lesion group was significantly more than that in the NR goup (17/42 vs. 1/16,x2 =6. 837, P =0. 009). There were some correlations between the degree of artery stenosis and the infarct morphology. The severe ICA lesions mostly showed PAI with PI (7/17 vs. 1/16,x2 =5. 475, P =0. 019), and the severe MCA lesions mostly showed PAI with BZ (3/8 vs. 1/17,x2 =4. 046, P =0. 040). Conclusions In patients with cerebral infarction of ICA or MCA severe stenosis or occlusion, most of them showed multiinfarct pattern. This suggested that the different mechanisms of stroke onset might be associated with the arterial-arterial embolization or hypoperfusion.

OBJECTIVETo determine the recognition of healthy medical students on deqi after acupuncture, reveal the qualitative and quantitative rules of deqi and understand whether these rules are the factors of the clinical application of acupuncture therapy.
METHODSThe class questionnaires were used for the investigation study on the understanding of deqi after acupuncture at Hegu (LI 4) or Zusanli (ST 36) in 86 healthy students in the clinical medicine class.
RESULTS(1) Deqi was a kind of complicated compound feelings, with many sensation qualities such as distending pain, distension and pain. (2) Deqi was a kind of mild and moderate sensations. In 10-score credit sys tem of Massachusetts General Hospital acupuncture sensation scale (MASS), the scores of distending pain (4.69 +/- 2.83), distension (4.39 +/- 2.91) and soreness and distension (3.93 +/- 2.93) were around 5 (moderate degree), the scores of stabbing pain (1.89 +/- 2.02) were around 2 (mild degree). (3) The differences in the quantitative scores were significant for stabbing pain, distending pain, distention, soreness and distention and the others before and after treatment (all P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONDeqi of acupuncture is the mild and moderate complicated sensations manifested as distension, soreness, pain and numbness. As the invasive therapy, the filiform needle puncture will bring a certain psychological impacts on the receptors. The subjective sensation is possibly the factor for the patients' selection of acupuncture treatment.

Immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment is a part of the tumor microenvironment that plays an immunosuppressive function.It consists of suppressor cells and inhibitory cytokines.In recent years,be-cause of its important role in tumor immunity,CAR-T and PD-1/PD-L1 signal pathway has become a hot top-ic of immunotherapy, which can suppress immune through different mechanisms to promote tumor progression. Therefore,taking more effective anti-tumor therapies against the above mechanisms is possible to rescue the pro-gress of tumor.In this article,the influence of immunosuppression microenvironment in CAR-T cell therapy and PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway in the anti-tumor process is reviewed.
