Objective To compare the clinical efficacies of vasiculation moxibustion with pastes prepared in different ways and at different acupoint groups in treating allergic rhinitis due to deficient cold of lung qi. Method Eighty subjects were randomized into 4 groups, 20 in each group. Raw Bai Jie Zi (Semen Brassicae) was used in the vesiculation paste for group 1 and 2;stir-baked Bai Jie Zi (Semen Brassicae) was used for group 3 and 4. In group 1 and group 3, bilateral Feishu (BL 13), Fengmen (BL12), and Gaohuang (BL 43) were selected; in group 2 and group 4, bilateral Dazhu (BL11), Geshu (BL17), and Shenshu (BL23) were selected. The symptom and sign scores were compared before and after intervention. Result There were significant differences in comparing the symptoms and signs among the four groups (P<0.05), and paired comparisons showed that the therapeutic efficacies of group 1 and group 3 were significantly higher than that of group 2 and group 4 (P<0.05), while the differences in the therapeutic efficacy between group 1 and group 3, group 2 and group 4 were statistically insignificant (P>0.05). Conclusion Vesiculation moxibustion at the point group of Fengmen (BL12), Feishu (BL13), and Gaohuang (BL43) can markedly improve the symptoms and signs of allergic rhinitis due to deficient cold of lung qi;raw and stir-baked Bai Jie Zi (Semen Brassicae) can work equally in vesiculation paste for allergic rhinitis.

Objective To investigate the effect of the pregnancy factor on the line drawn between the highest points of the two iliac crests ( T line) corresponding to the vertebral level in a multicenter clini?cal comparative study. Methods Hospitalized patients selected from the obstetric department or gynecolog?ical department, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠorⅡ, were divided into preg?nancy group ( group P ) and non?pregnancy group ( group NP ) . The patients were placed in the lateral posi?tion with their back vertical to the bed surface, the patient′s thighs were at an angle of approximately 90 de?grees to the trunk, and hip flexion was employed by flexing the patient′s knees to the chest. To determine the highest points of the two iliac crests, a line ( T line) was drawn between the highest points using a wire?reinforced epidural catheter. And another vertical line ( T′line) was made between the highest point of the iliac crest on the upper side ( not the side in the lateral position) and the ground. Ultrasonography was per?formed to identify and record the level of T line and T′line corresponding to the spinous process and lumbar interspace. Results A total of 1 763 cases completed the study, and there were 905 cases in group P, and 858 cases in group NP. Compared with group NP, the rate of T line at L3 spinous process and L3,4 in?terspace was significantly increased in group P ( P<0.05) . Compared with T′line, the rate of T line at L2,3 interspace and L3 spinous process was significantly decreased, and the rate of T line at L4 spinous process, L4,5 interspace and L5 spinous process was significantly increased in group P, and the rate of T line at L3 spinous process, L2,3 interspace and L3,4 interspace was significantly decreased, and the rate of T line at L4 spinous process and L4,5 interspace was significantly increased in group NP (P<0.01). Conclusion The level of T line corresponding to the vertebral level is significantly higher in the pregnant patients than in the nonpregnant patients.

Objective:To investigate the role and mechanism of miR-143 in the proliferation and migration of gastric cancer (GC) cells. Methods:Western blot was performed to detect the expression level of avian erythroblastosis oncogene B-3 (ERBB3) in GC tissues, paired non-cancerous tissues, and SGC7901 GC cells. RT-qPCR was conducted to determine the mRNA and miR-143 of ERBB3 quantita-tively. Bioinformatics tools were used to predict the target gene of miR-143. Luciferase reporter assay was carried out to confirm the predicted target gene. Transwell and EdU assays were applied to observe the migration and proliferation of SGC7901 GC cells transfect-ed with miR-143 mimics/inhibitor/NC mimics/inhibitor. Results:Compared with the expression levels of ERBB3 and miR-143 in the paired non-cancerous tissues, the expression level of ERBB3 was upregulated and the expression level of miR-143 was downregulated in GC tissues. In the prediction of the potential target gene, miR-143 could bind to a specific sequence of the 3′-untranslated regions (UTR) of the mRNA of ERBB3. This finding was supported by luciferase reporter assay results. In vitro, ERBB3 protein expression and cell migration and proliferation were suppressed significantly in the SGC7901 cells transfected with miR-143 mimics. By contrast, these processes were remarkably enhanced when the cells were transfected with miR-143 inhibitor. Conclusion:miR-143 can suppress the migration and proliferation of GC cells by downregulating the expression of ERBB3.

Objective:To investigate the cognitive status of professionalism among medical college students and ways to cultivate physician professionalism.Methods:According to the literature and interview, we made the questionnaire on the cognition of physician professionalism among medical students. A total of 512 valid questionnaires (including e-questionnaires) were collected from medical students of Shantou University Medical College and Qingdao University Medical College of Shandong Province from May to September, 2017. SPSS 20.0 software was used to perform the normality and single-sample t-test on physician professionalism, professional cognition, professional emotion and professional willingness. Quantitative data was analyzed by cross-table chi-square test and mean-standard deviation. Results:The professional cognition scored lowest (3.62±0.50) in the three dimensions, the professional willingness scored the highest (4.35±0.58), and the professional emotional scored in the middle (4.05±0.48). There was significant difference in physician professionalism among medical students with different family background ( P<0.05), but no statistical difference in gender and school system. Conclusion:The results demonstrate a low-to-medium level of physician professionalism in medical students. We suggest to cultivate and promote physician professionalism from the aspects of emphasis on objectivity, and cultivation of humanism and service consciousness.

Objective:To explore the psychological resilience of adolescent leukemia survivors and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:From October 2018 to August 2020, convenience sampling was used to select adolescent leukemia survivors in the routine follow-up group and follow-up group for children with leukemia who stopped taking medication in Beijing Children's Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University as the research object. The General Information Questionnaire, Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescents, and the General Self-Efficacy Scale were used to investigate adolescent leukemia survivors. A total of 110 questionnaires were issued, and 106 valid questionnaires were returned, with the effective response rate of 96.36%.Results:Among 106 adolescent leukemia survivors, the total score of psychological resilience was (97.83±14.93) . The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that disease risk, duration of drug withdrawal, and general self-efficacy were the influencing factors of psychological resilience in adolescent leukemia survivors, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The psychological resilience level of adolescent leukemia survivors is at an upper-middle level. Medical and nursing staff, the family and friends of adolescent leukemia survivors should pay active attention to survivors whose disease risk is medium or high risk or whose duration of drug withdrawal is less than 5 years, and provide them with a lot of support and help. At the same time, pay attention to the general self-efficacy of survivors, provide targeted self-care guidance or substantive help for the survivors to return to school and society so as to improve their psychological resilience.

To investigate Streptococcus suis ( S.suis) isolated from patients in Shandong province using genomic epidemiology and pathogenologic analysis. To provide the foundation to establish reasonable and accurate prevention and control measures of human S. suis infection. Molecular typing, whole genome phylogenetic tree, virulence gene typing, antibiotic resistance profile and mobile genetic elements carrying antibiotic resistance genes of isolated S. suis strains were investigated. The pathogenicity of isolated strains was also evaluated by comparing their capacity to induce pro-inflammatory cytokine production in vitro. S. suis infections in Shandong province were predominantly due to serotype 2 and sequence type 1 strains. The major symptoms were meningitis. The studied strains could be divided into five lineages. All strains belong to highly pathogenic type in Shandong province,Strains from lineage 2 possessed higher capacity to stimulate pro-inflammatory cytokine production than other strains did, even though other strains belong to highly pathogenic strains. In addition, multiple antibiotic resistance genes and corresponding mobile genetic elements werewidespread in S. suis strains from Shandong province, except strains from lineage 3. High diversities in genome, evolutionary path and pathogenicity of S. suis strains from Shandong province were revealed. It was necessary to surveillant the S. suis strain in genomic level.
