We present that the modern basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine is a new science in this article. To demonstrate the problem new discipline faced and needed to be understood, firstly we want to clear the related concepts of discipline and traditional Chinese medicine from an international perspective achieving the original inten-tion of deepening the research field, forming a discipline branch and towards modern teaching. Secondly, we explore the discipline classification system and in which the location of traditional Chinese medicine and theory of traditional Chinese medicine discipline, and then explore the discipline overall regularity of occurrence, development and demise focusing on regularity and evaluation criteria reveal of medicine and traditional Chinese medicine disciplines. On this basis, we demonstrate the discipline property and location of new scientific disciplines of modern basic theo-ry of traditional Chinese medicine, subjects and fields, direction and meaning and then draw a credible conclusion in accordance with deductive reasoning.

Objective To investigate the expressions of Smad3 and Smad7 in patients with ulcerative colitis(UC)and their relation with clinicopathology.Methods The expressions of Smad3 and Smad7 were measured by immunohistochemistry with SABC method in 60 UC specimens and 16 normal colonic tissues.The association of expressions of Smad3 and Smad7 proteins with clinical staging,lesion extent and pathologic grading were retrospectively analyzed.Results The expression of Smad3 was significantly lower in UC patients than in normal controls(P＜0.05),however,there was no relation between Smad3 expression and lesion extent(P＞0.05).There was a negative correlation between the expression of Smad3 and histological grade(r=-0.283,P＜0.05).The expression of Smad7 was significantly higher in UC patients than in normal controls,and its expression in active disease was higher than that in clinical remission(Z=2.097,P=0.036).There was a positive correlation between the expression of Smad7 and histological grade(r_s=0.453,P=0.000),and no relation between Smad7 expression and lesion extent(r_s=0.066,P=0.614).The statistical analysis showed a negative correlation between Smad3 expression and Smad7 expression(r=-0.420,P＜0.05).Conclusion The abnormal expressions of Smad3 and Smad7 are correlated with pathogenesis of UC.Furthermore.Smad7 may serve as marker for disease activity of UC.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in patients undergoing postoperative early enteral nutrition (EEN) with radical resection for hilar cholangiocarcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 48 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma who were admitted to the Drum Tower Clinical Medical College of Nanjing Medical University from July 2006 to September 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.All the 48 patients underwent radical resection for hilar cholangiocarcinoma,including 24 patients receiving postoperative EEN (EEN group) and 24 patients receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN group).The serologic indices and liver function were detected regularly after operation.Ten percent of albumin (Alb) 10 g was administered by intravenous infusion when Alb ＜ 30 g/L.The indexes of all the 48 patients were compared in the 2 groups at postoperative day 3 and 7,including the serologic indices and liver function,the exhaust time,the volume of Alb infusion,the complications (incisional infection,abdominal infection,pleural effusion,peritoneal effusion and bile leakage) and the duration of hospital stay.The patients were followed up by outpatient examination and telephone interview till September 2014.The measurement data with normal distribution were presented as x ± s,comparison between groups and count data were analyzed using the t test and chi-squared test,respectively.Results Patients in the 2 groups were cured successfully and discharged,and no patient died perioperatively.Patients in the EEN group had a good tolerance for EEN and no occurrence of EEN-related complications was detected.The level of the GGT was (108 ± 73) U/L in the EEN group,which was significantly lower than (225 ± 121) U/L in the TPN group at postoperative day 3 (t =4.041,P ＜ 0.05).The level of the GGT was (142 ± 86) U/L in the EEN group,which was no significantly different from (183 ± 107)U/L in the TPN group at postoperative day 7 (t =1.477,P ＞ 0.05).The postoperative time to anal exsufflation and the duration of hospital stay were (73 ± 18) hours and (15 ± 4) days in the EEN group,which were significantly different from (97 ± 21) hours and (18 ± 4) days in the TPN group,and the volume of Alb infusion was (44 ± 29)g in the EEN group,which was significantly lower than (101 ± 92) g in the TPN group (t =4.295,2.615,2.916,P ＜ 0.05).All the 48 patients were followed up for 1 to 71 months (mediantime,10 months),no patients received reoperation or re-admitted to the hospital due to complications.Conclusion The application of postoperative EEN in enhanced recovery of patients undergoing radical resection for hilar cholangiocarcinoma is safe and effective,it could accelerate the recovery of enteral function,shorten the postoperative duration of hospital stay and reduce the supplement of extrinsic Alb,which is helpful for the fast recovery of patients.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features of post-pancreaticoduodenectomy hemorrhage, and explore effective and practical nursing strategies.Methods:Clinical data of 62 patients with post-pancreaticoduodenectomy hemorrhage from Jan 2014 to Dec 2019 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The bleeding time, location, vital signs, accompanying symptoms and surgical treatment measures and clinical outcomes were analyzed.Results:Among the 62 cases, early (within 24 h) hemorrhage occurred in 19/62 patients (30.6%), and late hemorrhage occurred in 43/62 patients (69.4%). 36/62 patients (58.1%) had arterial bleeding; And 43/62 patients (69.4%) had abdominal hemorrhage. Grade C hemorrhage occurred in 32/62 patients (51.6%). Sentinel hemorrhage occurred in 8/62 patients (12.9%). The manifestation of hemorrhage in 42 patients was bloody fluid from abdominal drainage tube (67.7%). Hemorrhage occurred in 23 patients with pancreatic fistula(37.1%), 12 patients with abdominal infection and other complications (19.4%). Shock symptoms occurred in 41 cases (66.1%) with postoperative hemorrhage. Pancreaticoduodenectomy hemorrhage were early detected in 0.3 h and last detected in 869 h, with a median time of 192.00 (14.63, 297.00) h. 30/62 cases (48.4%) of hemorrhage patients occurred 1 hour before and after nursing shift. When hemorrhage was found, emergency treatments such as blood transfusion to maintain blood volume ( n=47, 75.8%), hemostasis ( n=35, 56.5%) and vasoactive drugs to increase blood pressure ( n=32, 51.6%) were usually given immediately. 31/62 patients (50.0%) underwent emergency secondary surgery within 4 h of hemorrhage, and 45/62 patients (72.6%) were cured by emergency surgical treatment. A written treatment pre-plan for surgical nurses was established. Conclusions:Surgical nurses should be familiar with the clinical manifestations of post-pancreaticoduodenectomy hemorrhage, and improve the alarming ability of identifying the complications of post-operative hemorrhage. The establishment of an emergency pre-plan for surgical nurses could help to treat such patients timely and effectively.

The mammalian APOBEC3G protein (apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide 3 protein G, APOBEC3G) is an important component of the cellular innate immune response to retroviral infection. APOBEC3G can extinguish HIV-1 (human immunodeficiency virus type 1) infectivity by its incorporation into virus particles and subsequent cytosine deaminase activity to block replication of HIV-1. HIV-1 Vif (viral infectivity factor) suppresses various APOBEC3 proteins through a common mechanism which induces the degradation of target proteins. Therefore, the interrelation of Vif-APOBEC3G has been extensively studied, which represents attractive targets for the development of novel inhibitors. We summarize the papers in which the detection technique and methods have been developed to assay the anti-HIV activity and its mechanism, such as western-blotting, co-immunoprecipitation, pulse-chase experiments, bioluminescence resonance energy transfer, biomolecular interaction analysis. This review is towards developing therapeutics aimed at the Vif-APOBEC3G axis.
