With the research progress of pathogenesis of JAK gene in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), more tyrosine kinase inhibitors were developed. MPN quantify scoring system is used to determine the efficacy of tyrosine kinase inhibitors for MPN. The choice of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, tyrosine kinase for the relief of MPN symptom burden, etc, become the topics of the 57th American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting.

In order to improve the precision and robustness in determination of soluble solids content ( SSC) of ‘Fuji ’ apple by NIR spectroscopy and eliminate the effect of origin variability on the accuracy of NIR calibration models for the SSC, sample set partitioning based on joint x-y distances ( SPXY) was used to select representative subset from the apple samples of 4 different origins. As a comparison, partial least square ( PLS) was used to establish local origin and hybrid origin models for the prediction of SSC in apple. Competitive adaptive reweighted sampling ( CARS ) and successive projections algorithm ( SPA ) were implemented to select effective variables of the NIR spectroscopy of SSC of apple. The results indicated that the PLS model established based on the 4 origin apple samples performed better than local origin and other hybrid origin models. The model could be effectively simplified using 16 characteristic variables selected by CARS-SPA method from full-spectrum which had 3112 wavelengths. The correlation coefficient (Rp) and root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) were 0. 978 and 0. 441 oBrix, respectively for SSC. It was found that the model developed by more samples of different origins combined with effective wavelengths showed good prediction ability for apple sample of unknown origin, which indicated that it could significantly reduce the origin effect on the robustness of NIR models for SSC of apple.

Point Dingchuan (Ex-B1) pertains to extraordinary points and often produces a good therapeutic effect on respiratory system diseases. Ancient Chinese medical books do not record point Dingchuan. Modern Chinese medical textbooks describe the location and efficacy of and indications for this point but do not state their provenances. In order to further popularize the clinical application of point Dingchuan, this article verifies the origin and development of the name and location of point Dingchuan so as to provide a certain reference for clinically correct selection and use of this point. The results show that point Dingchuan followed the course of development from ashi point to new point and then to extraordinary point. The development of point Dingchuan to the same acupoint name and location as now international use went mainly through four stages, that is, similar name and different location, similar name and location, same name and different location, and same name and location.

Objective To investigate the correlation between stenosis of middle cerebral artery (MCA) and cerebral perfusion in patients with unilateral MCA stenosis.Methods Computed tomography perfusion (CTP) was performed in 34 patients with unilateral MCA stenosis,admitted to our hospital trom April 2012 to March 2013.The CTP parameters of mean transit time,cerebral blood flow,cerebral blood volume and time to peak were measured in regions supplied by anterior cerebral artery,MCA and posterior cerebral artery.All patients were divided into severe stenosis group and moderate stenosis group; the correlation between MCA stenosis and cerebral perfusion was analyzed.Results A decreased perfusion was detected in 25 patients (73.5％),and it was more likely found in the severe stenosis group (18/20,90％) than that in the moderate stenosis group (7/14,50％,P=0.017).The degree ofMCA stenosis was positively correlated with the changes of cerebral perfusion (r=0.381,P=0.026).The ratio of patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) between the normal cerebral perfusion group and decreased cerebral perfusion group had statistical difference (11.11％ vs.72.00％,P=0.004).Conclusion Cerebral perfusion is significantly correlated with the severity of MCA stenosis in unilateral MCA stenosis patients; the proportion of TIA in the low cerebral perfusion patients is higher than that in the normal cerebral perfusion ones.

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of Baicalein in the treatment of hyperuricemia.Methods The mouse model of hyperuricemia was established by yeast extract combined with potassium oxazinate.The effect and potential mechanism of Baicalein in the treatment of hyperuricemia were studied by biochemical indexes,pathological changes,non-target metabonomics and network pharmacology.Results Baicalein could reduce the contents of serum uric acid,creatinine and blood urea nitrogen,reduce the inflammatory injury of renal tissue,up-regulate the expression level of uric acid excretion protein and down-regulate the expression level of uric acid reabsorption protein.Nine disease-related targets such as BCL2,SIRT1 and XDH were screened by network pharmacology.Six key metabolic pathways including nicotinic acid and nicotinamide metabolism,caffeine metabolism and purine metabolism were screened by metabonomics analysis.Conclusions Baicalein can treat hyperuricemia and reduce renal injury,and its mechanism may be related to the metabolic pathways of nicotinic acid and nicotinamide regulated by SIRT1 and quinolinate.

Objective To investigate the expression of sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like-lectin-1 (Siglec-1)in the peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) of patients with autoimmune thyroiditis ( AIT) and its relationship with AIT. To explore the moduratory role of activated Siglec-1 on the differentiation of T cells and the promotion of in flammation after PBMC culture. Methods The peripheral whole blood and serum samples were collected from 30 AIT patients with normal thyroid function and 30 sex-and age-matched controls. The expression of sSiglec-1 in serum was detected by ELISA. The expression of Siglec-1 in PBMC was detected by RT-PCR and WB. The expression of Siglec-1 in CD14+ monocytes and the proportion of Th1 and Th17 cells in each group were detected by flow cytometry. The PBMC in AIT or control was stimulated with NaI in the presence or absence of LPS for 72 h. The expression of Siglec-1 in CD14+ monocytes and the proportion of Th1 and Th17 cells were detected by flow cytometry. Results sSiglec-1 in serum, Siglec-1 mRNA, and Siglec-1 protein in AIT patients'PBMC were higher than those in control group ( P＜0. 01). The expression of Siglec-1 in CD14+ monocytes by flow cytometry and differentiation of Th1 and Th17 cells were significantly higher than that in control group ( both P＜0. 01). The expression of Siglec-1 in control and AIT patients was up-regulated by 5×10-5 mmol/L to 1×10-2 mmol/L stimulated with NaI in the presence or absence of LPS for 72 h (P＜0.01), but the differentiation of Th1 and Th17 cells was up-regulated only in patients (P＜0.01), and in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion Elevated Siglec-1 expression in PBMCs and monocytes can potentially serve as a biomarker for AIT. Iodine may affect Th1 and Th17 cell differentiation by activating Siglec-1 to adjust the AIT immune response.

【Objective】 To investigate the effect of phenotypes of Duffy blood group on chemokine storage and chemokine scavenging function of erythrocytes. 【Methods】 Twenty-four erythrocyte samples were collected and tested Duffy blood phenotype using the anti-human globulin method, and erythrocyte CCL2, CCL5, CXCL8, and CCL11 content and their chemokine scavenging function using ELISA. The expression of Duffy antigens on erythrocytes was detected using a flow analyzer. 【Results】 The difference in CCL2 content(41.1±14.7 pg/mL vs 63.1±20.8 pg/mL)of erythrocyte lysate between Fy(a+b-) and Fy(a+b+) phenotype was statistically significant (P<0.05), however, the difference in the content of CCL5(794.5±320.1 pg/mL vs 846.9±359.4 pg/mL), CXCL8(59.5±34.2 pg/mL vs 49.1± 11.9 pg/mL), and CCL11(109.1±25.1 pg/mL vs 158.6 ±56.0 pg/mL) were not statistically significant (P>0.05).The difference in the scavenging function of CCL2(1471±202.1 pg/mL vs 1860±267.5 pg/mL)and CCL5 (848.5±461.7 pg/mL vs 1797±546.1pg/mL) between Fy(a+b-) and Fy(a+b+) phenotype were statistically significant (P<0.05), however, for CXCL8(1851±180.7 pg/mL vs 1 862± 248.3 pg/mL) and CCL11(691.0±125.7 pg/mL vs 781.7 ±293.8 pg/mL) scavenging function the difference were not statistically significant (P>0.05).The difference in Duffy antigen expression (mean fluorescent intensity:105.3±20.45 vs 111.9±18.30)on erythrocytes between Fy(a+b-) and Fy(a+b+) phenotype was not statistically significant (P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 The Fy(a+b+) and Fy(a+b-) phenotypes of the Duffy blood group can affect the chemokine storage and scavenging function of erythrocytes. Fy(a+b+) phenotypes are able to store more chemokines and have a stronger chemokine scavenging function than Fy(a+b-) phenotypes.

Objective? To design a Seminar curriculum model for graduate nursing students based on the discussion of SCI papers and evaluate its effect on students' scientific research ability. Methods? Using the cluster sampling method, 57 graduate nursing students from a medical university were selected as the control group, and 58 graduate nursing students were selected as the experimental group. Using SCI nursing papers as the subject of discussion, the control group implemented the empirical Seminar curriculum model. The experimental group constructed and implemented the curriculum model based on the research capability structure model and the Seminar learning objectives. The effects of the intervention were evaluated using the Research Motivation Scale (RMS), the Nursing Research Self-Efficacy Scale (NURSES), the Nursing Staff Scientific Research Self-Assessment Scale (SRASES), and the Seminar Survey Questionnaire. Results? After the course, the scores of RMS total score, intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation of the nursing students in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). At the end of the course, the scores of the NURSES total scores, scientific knowledge resources of the nursing students and "effect of collective research" in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). At the end of the course, the scores of the total scores and dimensions of the SRASES in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05). Conclusions? The Seminar curriculum model based on SCI papers can improve the motivation, scientific research efficacy and scientific research ability of graduate nursing students to a certain extent. However, it is still necessary to further explore the curriculum model to help students avoid the motivation of scientific research failure and the understanding and application of theory.

Objective:To report our experience in treatment of patients with orthopaedic trauma during COVID-19 epidemic.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the 67 patients with orthopedic trauma who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedics, Peking Union Medical College Hospital from February 1 to March 31, 2020. After screening for COVID-19 infection was performed under strict protection, the patients were diagnosed and assigned to outpatient emergency treatment or hospitalization according to their specific condition. Twenty-six patients were treated at the outpatient emergency department. They were 8 males and 18 females with an average age of 69.5 years. Of them, 6 with vertebral compression fracture were placed on bed brakes, 14 with limb fracture immobilized after close reduction, 2 with skin laceration treated with debridement and suture, and 4 with hip fracture immobilized in bed. In the 41 hospitalized patients, there were 14 males and 27 females with an average age of 68.5 years. In them, hemiarthroplasty was performed for 7 femoral neck fractures, kyphoplasty for 5 vertebral compression fractures, total elbow arthroplasty for one humeral intercondylar fracture, exploration and suture for one case of Achilles tendon rupture, and internal fixation surgery for the remaining 27 cases.Results:Most of the patients had osteoporotic fractures which accounted for 61.5% (16/26) of the outpatients and 68.3% (28/41) of the inpatients, respectively. The duration from injury to surgery averaged 2.3 days and the length of hospitalization 4.5 days for the 41 hospitalized patients, decreased compared with the corresponding data (3.1 days and 11.5 days) for the similar inpatients in the same period last year. In the 41 inpatients, fever was observed upon hospitalization in 4 cases and after operation in 26 cases, and related to their primary injury or surgical trauma in all. Acute pulmonary embolism happened during operation in one patient with femoral shaft fracture.Conclusions:The prevention and control of COVID-19 should be continued. The awareness and behavior of health care providers are expected to be enhanced by strict screening protocol, protection and supervision. The proportion of elderly patients with osteoporotic fracture increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. Shortage of blood was the major problem affecting the treatment. Timely surgical treatment should be indicated for the patients with orthopedic trauma, especially those with lower extremity fracture.

With intensified aging， Alzheimer's disease has become a serious problem in China's health field. In the field of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， Alzheimer's disease mainly describes cognitive deficits such as dementia and amnesia. After the inheritance and summary by medical experts of successive generations， the theory of "toxin damaging brain collaterals" has become a mature pathogenesis hypothesis of this disease. Blood stasis， as one of the main viral pathogens， is also closely related to the theory of Alzheimer's disease in modern pharmacology. Chuanxiong Rhizoma is used frequently in clinical prescriptions for Alzheimer's disease. As the main component of Chuanxiong Rhizoma， tetramethylpyrazine has a series of pharmacological effects on the cardiovascular system such as vasodilation， anti-platelet aggregation， anti-atherosclerosis， and anti-myocardial ischemia， which reflects the effects of Chuanxiong Rhizoma in activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis. However， few studies have focused on the effect of tetramethylpyrazine on the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. From the perspective of TCM theory and modern pharmacology， this article discussed the effects of tetramethylpyrazine on the pathology and pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease from the aspects of cardiovascular function， oxidative stress， inflammatory response， mitochondrial function， and cholinergic system and made prospects for the future application of tetramethylpyrazine to prevent and treat Alzheimer's disease.
