Benign epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes (BECT)is the most common epilepsy syndrome in childhood.The seizures are manifested with facial jerking and twitching to guttural noises,salivating with inability to speak and twitched limbs.The episode is proved to be closely associated with sleep,especially the nonrapid eye movement period.Centrotemporal spikes are the hallmark of the syndrome of BECT.Although the pathogenesis of BECT is still unknown,it is generally acknowledged that hereditary features play a critical role in the occurrence of BECT.In this article we are going to summarize the progresses of BECT in the fields of clinical genetics,cytogenetics and molecular genetics.

OBJECTIVE:The main clinical manifestations of knee osteoarthritis are pain,swelling,stiffness,and limited activity,which have a serious impact on the life of patients.Exercise therapy can effectively improve the related symptoms of patients with knee osteoarthritis.This paper uses the method of network meta-analysis to compare the efficacy of different exercise types in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. METHODS:CNKI,WanFang,PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,Scopus,Ebsco,SinoMed,and UpToDate were searched with Chinese search terms"knee osteoarthritis,exercise therapy"and English search terms"knee osteoarthritis,exercise".Randomized controlled trials on the application of different exercise types in patients with knee osteoarthritis from October 2013 to October 2023 were collected.The outcome measures included visual analog scale,Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index score,Timed Up and Go test,and 36-item short form health survey.Literature quality analysis was performed using the Cochrane Manual recommended tool for risk assessment of bias in randomized controlled trials.Two researchers independently completed the data collection,collation,extraction and analysis.RevMan 5.4 and Stata 18.0 software were used to analyze and plot the obtained data. RESULTS:A total of 29 articles with acceptable quality were included,involving 1 633 patients with knee osteoarthritis.The studies involved four types of exercise:aerobic training,strength training,flexibility/skill training,and mindfulness relaxation training.(1)The results of network meta-analysis showed that compared with routine care/health education,aerobic training could significantly improve pain symptoms(SMD=-3.26,95%CI:-6.33 to-0.19,P<0.05);strength training(SMD=-0.79,95%CI:-1.34 to-0.23,P<0.05)and mindfulness relaxation training(SMD=-0.79,95%CI:-1.23 to-0.34,P<0.05)could significantly improve the function of patients.Aerobic training(SMD=-1.37,95%CI:-2.24 to-0.51,P<0.05)and mindfulness relaxation training(SMD=-0.41,95%CI:-0.80 to-0.02,P<0.05)could significantly improve the functional mobility of patients.Mindfulness relaxation training(SMD=0.70,95%CI:0.21-1.18,P<0.05)and strength training(SMD=0.42,95%CI:0.03-0.81,P<0.05)could significantly improve the quality of life of patients.(2)The cumulative probability ranking results were as follows:pain:aerobic training(86.6%)>flexibility/skill training(60.1%)>strength training(56.8%)>mindfulness relaxation training(34.7%)>routine care/health education(11.7%);Knee function:strength training(73.7%)>mindfulness relaxation training(73.1%)>flexibility/skill training(56.1%)>aerobic training(39.9%)>usual care/health education(7.6%);Functional mobility:aerobic training(94.7%)>mindfulness relaxation training(65.5%)>strength training(45.1%)>flexibility/skill training(41.6%)>routine care/health education(3.2%);Quality of life:mindfulness relaxation training(91.3%)>strength training(68.0%)>flexibility/skill training(44.3%)>aerobic training(34.0%)>usual care/health education(12.3%). CONCLUSION:(1)Exercise therapy is effective in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis,among which aerobic training has the best effect on relieving pain and improving functional mobility.Strength training and mindfulness relaxation training has the best effect on improving patients'function.Mindfulness relaxation training has the best effect on improving the quality of life of patients.(2)Limited by the quality and quantity of the included literature,more high-quality studies are needed to verify it.

ObjectiveTo explore the molecular mechanism of Sanhuang Xiexintang （SHXXT） in protecting stress gastric ulcer （SGU） in rats through network pharmacology， molecular docking， and animal experiments. MethodThe active ingredients and corresponding targets in SHXXT were collected and screened from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform （TCMSP）， Traditional Chinese Medicine Information Database （TCMID）， Bioinformation Analysis Tool for Molecular Mechanism of Traditional Chinese Medicine （BATMAN-TCM）， and Swiss Target Prediction database. SGU-related targets were screened from the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man （OMIM）， Therapeutic Target Database （TTD）， GeneCards database， and PharmGKB database. Herbal-ingredient-target （H-C-T） network was constructed by using Cytoscape 3.9.1 software. Protein-protein interaction （PPI） of drug and disease intersection targets was analyzed by using the Protein Interaction Platform （STRING） database. Gene ontology （GO） enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathway analysis were conducted through the Database for Annotation Visualization and Integrated Discovery （DAVID）. The active ingredients and key targets were validated using AutodockVina 1.2.2 molecular docking software， and the experimental results were further validated through animal experiments. ResultThe 55 active ingredients were screened， and 255 potential target genes for SHXXT treatment of SGU were predicted. The PPI analysis showed that protein kinase B （Akt）， phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten （PTEN）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， and cyclooxygenase-2 （COX-2） are the core targets of SHXXT for protecting SGU. GO and KEGG analyses showed that SHXXT may affect the development of SGU by regulating various biological processes such as the phosphoinositide 3-kinase （PI3K）/Akt signaling pathway and inflammatory processes. The molecular docking results showed that both the active ingredients and key targets had good binding ability. Animal experiments showed that compared with the blank group， the ulcer index （UI） of the model group was significantly increased （P<0.01）， and the serum levels of TNF-α and IL-1β significantly increased （P<0.01）. The phosphorylation level of PTEN in gastric mucosal tissue was significantly down-regulated （P<0.05）. The phosphorylation levels of PI3K， Akt， and nuclear factor kappa-B （NF-κB） were significantly up-regulated （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the UI of the treatment group was significantly reduced （P<0.01）， and the serum levels of TNF-α and IL-1β were significantly reduced （P<0.01）. The phosphorylation level of PTEN in gastric mucosal tissue was significantly up-regulated （P<0.01）， and the phosphorylation levels of PI3K， Akt， and NF-κB were significantly downregulated （P<0.01）. ConclusionThe application of network pharmacology prediction， molecular docking simulation， and animal experimental validation confirms that SHXXT regulates the PI3K/Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway to regulate the inflammatory response of rats and thus protects the gastric mucosa of SGU rats.
