Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Shenqi Fuzheng injection and chemotherapy in elderly patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC),and to observe its effect on immune function and serum tumor markers of carcino embryonie antigen(CEA),carbohydrate antigen 19-9(CA19-9),cytokeratin 19 fragment(CYFRA21-1)and neuronspecific enolase(NSE).Methods 80 patients with NSCLC who were confirmed as non-small cell lung cancer were enrolled in the study.Among them,the control group received paclitaxel + carboplatin chemotherapy,40 patients; the treatment group received Shenqi Fuzheng injection on the basis of the control group,40 cases.The clinical curative effect was evaluated after four cycles of treatment and the adverse reactions were recorded.The scores of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome before and after four cycles of treatment were evaluated,and the quality of life of the patients before and after treatment were evaluated by Karnofsky performance score(KPS).The immune function and tumor markers were measured before and after treatment.Results The total effective rate of the treatment group was 65.0%,which was significantly higher than that of the control group(42.5%,χ2=4.07,P=0.04).In the treatment group,the adverse reaction rate was 37.5%,significantly lower than 62.5%in the control group(χ2=5.00,P=0.02).The score of TCM syndrome in the two groups was significantly lower than that in the control group before treatment,and the KPS score was significantly higher than that in the control group before treatment,the score of TCM syndrome in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the immune function of patients in the treatment group compared with before treatment had no significant difference,while the control group after treatment of the immune function was significantly lower than before treatment,and compared with the treatment group(P<0.05).The two groups of patients after treatment of tumor markers decreased significantly,and the treatment group decreased significantly compared with the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Supplemented with Shenqi Fuzheng injection in the treatment of elderly non-small cell lung cancer on the immune function of little effect,help to promote serum levels of serum tumor markers and clinical symptoms improved,reduce adverse reactions,improve clinical efficacy and quality of life.

Objective To evaluate the curative effect of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in treating advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),and to discuss the occurrence of adverse events.Methods A total of 59 patients with advanced HCC were enrolled in this study.The patients were randomly divided into TACE plus IMRT group (study group,n=30) and TACE group (control group,n=29).The early tumor response rate,progression free survival (PFS),median survival time (mST),and adverse reactions were analyzed.Results The early tumor response rate in the study group was 60.0%,which was significantly higher than 34.4% in the control group (P=0.043).PFS of the study group was 260 days,which was remarkably higher than 195 days of the control group (P=0.006).The mST was 468 days in the study group,which was 431 days in the control group (P=0.195).In the study group,2 patients developed severe liver function damage,which was improved after active liver protection therapy for more than 20 days.Conclusion For the treatment of advanced HCC,TACE combined with IMRT can improve early tumor response rate and prolong PFS time,moreover,its adverse reactions can be well tolerated by patients.

With the continuous development of identification technologies such as mass spectrometry,omics,and antibody technology,post-translational modification(PTM)has demonstrated increasing potential in medical research.PTM as a novel chemical modification method provides new perspectives for the research on dis-eases.Succinylation as a novel modification has aroused the interest of more and more researchers.The available studies about succinylation mainly focus on a desuccinylase named sirtuin 5.This enzyme plays a key role in mod-ification and has been preliminarily explored in cardiovascular studies.This paper summarizes the influencing fac-tors and regulatory roles of succinylation and the links between succinylation and other PTMs and reviews the re-search progress of PTMs in the cardiovascular field,aiming to deepen the understanding about the role of this modification and give new insights to the research in this field.

OBJECTIVE:
To assess the value of copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) for revealing the genetic etiology of fetuses with isolated ventricular septal defect (VSD).
METHODS:
From December 2017 to December 2020, 69 fetuses with isolated VSD were identified at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. Meanwhile, 839 similar prenatal cases were selected from public databases including Wanfang data, Wanfang Medicine, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) by using keywords such as "Ventricular septal defect", "Copy number variation", and "Prenatal". A total of 908 fetuses with isolated VSD were analyzed. CNV-seq was carried out for 69 fetuses.
RESULTS:
Among the 908 fetuses, 33 (3.63%) were found to harbor pathogenic CNVs, which included 11 chromosomal aneuploidies (1.21%) and 22 pathogenic CNVs (2.42%). The pathogenic CNVs have involved 12 genetic syndromes, with those known to involve the heart development including 5 cases of 22q11.21 deletion syndrome, 2 cases of 4q terminal deletion syndrome, and 1 case of 9q subtelomere deletion syndrome. The outcome of pregnancies for 15 fetuses with pathogenic CNVs was known, of which 12 were terminated, and 3 had spontaneous closure of the ventricular septum after birth, but 1 of them had other abnormalities.
CONCLUSION
Fetuses with isolated VSD have a relatively high risk for chromosomal abnormalities, for which CNV-seq should be recommended.

Since the reform and opening-up, China’s health care has made great progress, and the level of national health literacy has steadily improved. However, there is still a disconnect between the health literacy and healthy behavior of Chinese residents, and traditional health education has little effect on behavior change. Based on the limitations of current traditional health education on improving health level of the whole people, this paper explored more effective education methods, deeply discussed how to integrate health ethics into health education to achieve the purpose of effectively promoting individual health behaviors. At the same time, this paper systematically expounded how the theory of behavioral economics provides theoretical support for the rationality and feasibility of health ethics education to promote healthy behavior, further explained the internal psychological mechanism of health ethics education affecting people’s healthy behavior, and provided feasible solutions for how to integrate health ethics into the new model of health education in practical application. To sum up, the integration of health ethics into health education is conducive to disseminating health concepts, improving health literacy, as well as promoting health behaviors, and then promoting the effective implementation of individual health and Healthy China.
