1.The discussion of the similarities and differences of the Tai Yang median betweenTreatise on Exogenous Febrile Diseases andThe Inner Canon of Huangdi
International Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2016;38(3):197-199
The Six Meridians inTreatise on Exogenous Febrile Diseases were once thought the same with the six meridians ofThe Inner Canon of Huangdi. With this theory was overthrown, similarities and differences and the correlation between them have gradually been studied. In this paper, we take the Taiyang Median as an example to explain the similarities and differences from two aspects, including clinical symptoms and the understanding of the same disease with different treatment.

Objective To investigate the effects of lanthanum(La)subchronic exposure on the metabolism of calcium(Ca),magnesium(Mg)and iron(Fe)in the liver tissue and serum in rats.Methods 36 Wistar rats were treated with lanthanum chloride(LaCl3)through oral exposure at 0.1,2 and 40 mg/kg respectively.After 90 days of treatment,the rats were sacrificed and the La,Ca,Mg and Fe in the liver tissue were determined,the serum was collected for analysis of Ca,phosphorus(P),Mg,Fe,unsaturated iron-binding capacity(UIBC)and total iron binding capacity(TIBC).Results The La levels in the liver tissue in all LaCl3 exposed dose groups rats were higher obviously than those in the control group(P0.05).Conclusion The result suggests that La subchronic exposure may have some effects on the level and distribution of Ca,Mg and Fe in the liver tissue and serum,which may be a part of its biological effects.

Objective:We investigated the changes of the proteins in the rat arterial smooth muscle cells induced by homocysteine.Detected the mechanism by which homocysteinemia leads to atherosclerosis. Methods:The rat arterial smooth muscle cells of primary culture were planned to be the experimental systems.Extracted the proteins from the smooth muscle cells which were induced by homocysteine and control.After 2-D electrophoresis,the map was analyzed by imaging systems. Results:After cells promoted by homocysteine, twenty-eight proteins of the smooth muscle cells changed.Twelve proteins were found to differ in quantity(11 higher and 1 lower).Sixteen proteins were seen to be unique in one region or the others(12 points of protein appear after Hcy stimulating,4 points of protein disapear after Hcy stimulating). Conclusion:The protein of rat arterial muscle cells changed after promoted by homocysteine.We considered that the proteins were related to the proliferation of the smooth muscle cells.

Objective To identify the high-touched object surface in different special intensive care units(ICUs) through the observation and statistical analysis on the number of touching with common object surfaces in different ICUs, so as to provide basis for hospital environmental management.Methods Direct observation method was used to observe the daily activities of health care workers, the number of touching with various common object surfaces was recorded, Poisson distribution was adopted to statistically analyze the data.Results The average number of touching from high to low was as follows : medical record folder(n=28.00), chair(n=18.38), emergency rescue cart(treatment cart, n=17.29), bed surface(n=13.90), intravenous infusion line(n=13.76), medical pen(n=13.38), and intravenous transfusion pump(n=11.81), these objects accounted for 64.01% of all surface touching number.Different special ICUs were slightly different, general ICU high-touch object included the first 6 categories;cardiothoracic surgery ICU included the above 7 categories besides keyboard and mouse;internal medicine ICU included the first 6 categories and mobile phone.Conclusion High-touched object surface varied with different special ICUs of the same hospital, hospital should make the corresponding disinfection management measures according to the actual situation of high-touched surface of each department, so as to reduce the incidence of healthcare-associated infection.

Objective To explore the value of Chinese ink in identifying sentinel lymph nodes(SLN) during radical resection of cervical carcinoma.Methods After sterilized Chinese ink(1ml) was infused in normal tissue at four points,extensive cervical resection and cleaning operation of pelvic lymph nodes were performed.Lymph nodes staining black in drainage field of pelvic lymph system were investigated.Results Lymph nodes staining black were found in 15 cases.The identifying rate was 100%(15/15).Positive lymph nodes were found in 2 cases with lymph node metastasis.The accurate rate of pelvic lymph nodes metastasis was 100%.Conclusion The effect is reliable by using Chinese ink as tracer of SLNs in cervical carcinoma.

Patent foramen ovale(PFO)is a common congenital heart disease.The clinical manifestations of PFO are heterogeneous,which can easily lead to missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis.In recent years,people found PFO is related to a variety of nervous system diseases such as TIA,migraines,dizziness,syncope,seizures.This paper reviews the relationship between PFO and nervous system paroxysmal disease and its possible mechanism.This review aims to improve clinicians'understanding of PFO and provide ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of PFO.

Objective:
To understand the potential categories of health risk behaviors among adolescents in the Wuling Mountain Area and their association with school connectedness, so as to provide reference for formulating classified and effective intervention measures.
Methods:
From March to June 2023, 3 386 middle and high school students from eight schools in the Wuling Mountain Area were selected using the multistage stratified cluster random sampling method. A basic information questionnaire, health risk behaviors questionnaire, and school connectedness scale were utilized for the survey. The latent classes of adolescent health risk behaviors in the Wuling Mountain Area were investigated by using latent class analysis, while an multinomial Logistic regression model was employed to analyze the association between latent classes and school connectedness.
Results:
Adolescent health risk behaviors in the Wuling Mountains Area were classified into three latent classes: high risk class of episodic behaviors ( 5.64 %), high risk class of implicit behaviors (26.90%), and low risk class of implicit behaviors (67.45%). Gender, ethnicity, and family type revealed significant differences in the distribution of the three latent classes ( χ 2=117.91, 22.55, 21.51, P <0.05). The results of the regression model analysis showed that, with the low risk class as the reference category, high school connectedness scores were associated with the high risk class of episodic behaviors ( OR=0.89, 95%CI = 0.88- 0.91) and the high risk class of implicit behaviors ( OR=0.90, 95%CI =0.89-0.91)( P <0.05).
Conclusions
The characteristics of adolescent health risk behavior classes in the Wuling Mountain Area are obvious. The high risk class of episodic behaviors and the high risk class of implicit behaviors are negatively correlated with school connectedness. Corresponding measures should be taken to enhance adolescents sense of belonging in school and reduce the aggregation and co occurrence of health risk behaviors.
10.Genetic mechanisms and targeted treatment prospects for common developmental and epileptic encepha-lopathy
Chinese Journal of Nervous and Mental Diseases 2023;49(10):615-620
The majority of patients with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy(DEE)has genetic causes and presents with cognitive impairment and severe seizures.Although controlling seizures cannot improve cognitive impairment,targeted therapy based on individualized factors,corrects pathological and physiological processes with clear molecular genetic mechanisms in DEE patients,thereby achieving good clinical outcomes.According to the study of the molecular genetic mechanisms of related DEE such as SCN1A,KCNQ2/KCNQ3,CDKL5 and PCDH19,gene therapy such as antisense oligonucleotides(ASOs),Ataluren,adenovirus vectors,and gene editing has shown great promise for treatment of DEE,among which ASOs demonstrate enormous potential for treatment of DEE.Next-generation sequencing technologies,animal models,inducing polyenergic stem cell technologies,organ clusters from patient cells,and gene editing technologies can promote the development of future targeted epilepsy therapies.
