In order to improve the level of epidemic prevention and control, and strengthen the observation and monitoring of potential patients with viral pneumonia in isolated state, a medical intelligent monitoring collar based on DA14699 Bluetooth low-power chip was proposed. DA14699 chip is used as the main controller in the design scheme, and the temperature, cough and location information of potential patients are recorded and analyzed by its high-efficiency wireless multi-core processing ability. The LIS3DH three-axis acceleration sensor is used to judge the cough symptoms. The MLX90640 infrared sensor is used to continuously measure the body temperature. The L218 four frequency GSM / GPRS positioning module is used to complete the rapid and accurate positioning of personnel, so as to realize the comprehensive supervision of the implementation of home isolation measures. DA14699 chip supports Bluetooth BLE5.1 protocol. Epidemic prevention personnel can transmit and read the data recorded in the smart collar from a long distance, and display it directly on the intelligent Bluetooth handheld terminal, effectively avoid the risk of infection caused by close contact. Through the actual test, the monitoring function of the key parameters of the collar is reliable and has high application value.

OBJECTIVE: To improve the quality of management in biliary leakage following liver or bile tract injury. METHODS: All patients with liver and/or bile duct injuries from October 1987 to February 1998 inclusive were studied retrospectively in respects of their age, sex, type and mechanism of injury, the grade of liver trauma, treatment and subsequent complications. RESULTS: In 271 patients with hepatobiliary injuries, 14 (5.17%) developed a bile leak, which fell into 2 main types: Type I, injuries involving extrahepatic or first-order bile ducts (6 patients);Type II, injuries of more peripheral biliary radicles (8 patients). Most bile leakages in this series closed spontaneously in 7-14 days postoperatively. Intra-abdominal infection (28.57%) was a frequent complication which required active intervention. CONCLUSIONS: In the management of biliary leakage, it is important that (1) the leakage should be well localized; (2) adequate abdominal drainage plays a key role in controlling any type of biliary leakage; (3) decompression of the biliary tract favors the healing of injured biliary tree, especially in Type I leakage.

OBJECTIVE:
To observe the clinical efficacy on post-stroke dysphagia treated with four-step acupuncture therapy for opening orifices and benefiting throat combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation.
METHODS:
Sixty patients with post-stroke dysphagia were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 30 cases in each group. The neuromuscular electrical stimulation was adopted in the control group. Besides the treatment as the control group, in the observation group, the four-step acupuncture therapy for opening orifices and benefiting throat was supplemented. Step 1: the three areas of scalp acupuncture on the affected side were stimulated. Step 2: pricking method was operated on the posterior pharyngeal wall. Step 3: bleeding technique was operated at Jinjin (EX-HN 12) and Yuye (EX-HN 13). Step 4: deep insertion of needle was operated at three-pharynx points. The needles were retained for 30 min at the three areas of scalp acupuncture and the three-pharynx points. The intervention of each group was delivered once daily, 6 times a week, at the interval of 1 day. One course of treatment was 1 week and 4 successive courses were required. The rating of Kubota water swallow test, the score of standardized swallowing assessment (SSA) and the rating of Rosenbek penetration- aspiration scale (PAS) were observed before and after treatment in patients of the two groups. The incidence of clinical complications and clinical efficacy were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS:
Compared with those before treatment, the rating of Kubota water swallow test, the scores of SSA and the rating of PAS of patients in the two groups were decreased after treatment (P<0.01), and the values of the observation group were lower than those of the control group after treatment (P<0.05). The incidence of clinical complications in the observation group was 13.3% (4/30), lower than 36.7% (11/30) in the control group (P<0.05). The total effective rate in the observation group was 93.3% (28/30), which was better than 70.0% (21/30) in the control group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
The four-step acupuncture therapy for opening orifices and benefiting throat combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation can improve the swallowing function of patients with post-stroke dysphagia and reduce the incidence of clinical complications.

OBJECTIVETo study the effects of Xixin decoction (XXD) on O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and O-GlcNAc glycosidase in O-GlcNAc glycosylation of tau proteins in the brain of rats with sporadic Alzheimer's disease (SAD) and explore the possible mechanism.
METHODSMale SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group, model group, donepezil group, and low-, moderate-, and high-dose XXD groups. After treatment and behavioral test, the rats were sacrificed for detecting the expressions of OGT and O-GlcNAc glycosidase in the brain using immunohistochemistry and Western blotting.
RESULTSXXD significantly enhanced the expressions of OGT in the hippocampus of SAD rats and lowered the expression of O-GlcNAc glycosidase (P<0.05 or 0.01). OGT and O-GlcNAc glycosidase expressions showed no significant differences between the model group and donepezil group (P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONXXD can regulate the expression of OGT and O-GlcNAc glycosidase to enhance O-GlcNAc glycosylation of tau proteins in the hippocampus of SAD rats.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Gualou Xiebai Banxiatang on cardiac function and myocardial histopathological changes in rats with ischemic myocardial injury, and to observe the effect of myocardial microvascular density (MVD), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling pathways on myocardial microangiogenesis. MethodSeventy male SD rats were randomly selected, with six rats in the normal group. The remaining rats were fed a high-fat diet and injected with isoproterenol hydrochloride (ISO,80 mg·kg-1·d-1, 2 d) to induce a hyperlipidemia-based ischemic heart disease model. After successful modeling, the rats were randomly divided into the model group, high, medium, and low dose groups of Gualou Xiebai Banxiatang, and the metoprolol group. The high, medium, and low dose groups of Gualou Xiebai Banxiatang were given Gualou Xiebai Banxiatang at 10.42, 5.21, 2.61 g·kg-1·d-1, respectively, while the metoprolol group was given metoprolol at 2.6 mg·kg-1·d-1. Both the normal and model groups were given an equivalent volume of physiological saline for 28 days. After the intervention, relevant tests were conducted, and serum was collected to measure heart function-related indicators. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Masson staining were performed on ventricular tissue to observe pathological changes under a light microscope. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect the positive expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule (CD31). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the expression of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and VEGF. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of PI3K/mTOR/HIF-1α/VEGF. ResultCompared with the normal group, the model group showed significantly increased serum levels of LDH, CK, CK-MB, NT-proBNP, and VEGF (P<0.01), significantly increased collagen volume fraction (CVF) (P<0.01), significantly decreased MVD (P<0.01), and elevated protein expression levels of PI3K, mTOR, HIF-1α, and VEGF (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the metoprolol group had significantly lower serum levels of LDH, CK, CK-MB, and NT-proBNP (P<0.01), significantly higher VEGF levels (P<0.01), significantly decreased CVF (P<0.01), significantly increased MVD (P<0.01), and significantly increased protein expression levels of PI3K, mTOR, and VEGF (P<0.01), with no statistically significant change in HIF-1α protein expression. Compared with the model group, the high and medium dose groups of Gualou Xiebai Banxiatang had decreased serum levels of LDH, CK, CK-MB, and NT-proBNP (P<0.05, P<0.01), increased VEGF levels (P<0.05, P<0.01), significantly reduced CVF (P<0.01), increased MVD (P<0.05, P<0.01), and significantly increased protein levels of PI3K, mTOR, HIF-1α, and VEGF (P<0.01). In the low dose group of Gualou Xiebai Banxiatang, compared with the model group, serum levels of LDH and NT-proBNP were decreased (P<0.05), VEGF was increased (P<0.05). Moreover, CVF was decreased (P<0.05), and the protein expression levels of PI3K, mTOR, HIF-1α, and VEGF were significantly increased (P<0.01). ConclusionGualou Xiebai Banxiatang can improve cardiac function, reduce myocardial pathological damage, enhance endothelial cell function, promote myocardial microvascular formation, and upregulate the expression of PI3K, mTOR, HIF-1α, and VEGF proteins in myocardial tissue in rats with ischemic myocardial injury.

The rule and characteristics of clinical acupoint selection were explored in treatment of puerperal insufficient lactation with acupuncture and moxibustion. The clinical articles on the treatment of puerperal insufficient lactation with acupuncture and moxibustion were retrieved from the databases of CNKI, VIP and Wanfang from the date of establishment to June 1, 2019. The articles were screened in accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The prescriptions of acupuncture and moxibustion were extracted and normalized. Using Microsoft Excel 2016 software, the use frequency, meridians involved and acupoint distributions were analyzed. Using SPSS Statistics 21.0 software, the cluster and factor analyses were conducted. Totally, 102 articles were included,108 acupoint prescriptions were extracted, 65 acupoitns were designed and the total use frequency was 654 times. The top three acupoints used in treatment of puerperal insufficient lactation were Danzhong (CV 17), Rugen (ST 18) and Shaoze (SI 1). The most frequently involved meridians were the stomach meridian, the conception vessel, the small intestine meridian and the liver meridian. The acupoints were mainly distributed in the chest and four extremities. It was showed in cluster analysis that Rugen (ST 18), Shaoze (SI 1), Zusanli (ST 36) and Danzhong (CV 17) represent 3 clusters and a total of 7 common factors were extracted. The acupoint selection is based on syndrome differentiation in treatment of puerperal insufficient lactation with acupuncture and moxibustion, of which, the local acupoints are predominated and the distal acupoints are combined.

OBJECTIVE The specificity of drug therapy in individuals and races has promoted the development and improvement of pharmacogenomics and precision medicine. While there is a few cognition on the minorities in China, especially in Lisu nationality from the Yunnan province. Therefore, we performed the research to improve the role of pharmacogenomics in the Lisu population from the Yunnan province of China. METHODS 54 variants of very important pharmacogenes selected from the PharmGKB database were genotyped in 199 unrelated and healthy Lisu adults from the Yunnan province of China, and then, genotyping data wtihχ2 test were analyzed. RESULTS We compared our data with those of other 26 populations from the 1000 Genomes Project, and acquired that the Lisu ethnicity is similar with the CDX (Chinese Dai in Xishuangbanna, China) and CHS (Southern Han Chinese, China). Furthermore, rs776746 (CYP3A5), rs1805123 (KCNH2), rs4291 (ACE), rs1051298 (SLC19A1) and rs1065852 (CYP2D6) were deemed as the most varying loci. The MAF of"G"at rs1805123 (KCNH2) in the Lisu population was the largest with the value of 51.0%. CONCLUSION There are significant differences in single nucleotide polymorphism loci, supplementing the phar?macogenomic information of the Lisu population in Yunnan province, China, and can provide a theoretical basis for indi?vidualized medication in the future.
