Selected mainly were acupoints in the adjacent areas and along the meridians, assisted by ashi points. Fengmen (BL 12), Geshu (BL 17) and Xuehai (SP 10) were selected for migratory arthralgia;Shenshu (BL 23) and Guanyuan (CV 4) for cold-aggravated arthralgia; Pishu (BL 20), Zusanli (ST 36)and Yinlingquan (SP 9) for damp arthralgia; Dazhui (GV 14) and Quchi (LI 11) for heat-induced arthralgia. Acupuncture in combination with far infra-red radiation was performed.76 patients with rheumatoid arthritis were treated and 74 cases with herb therapy as control. The result showed that there was statistically significant difference in curative effect between the 2 groups, χ 2=10.18, P＜ 0.01, indicating that the curative effect was significantly better in the treatment group than in the control group. Statistics showed that there was no significant difference in curative effect among the 4 syndromic types, namely migratory arthralgia, cold-aggravated arthralgia, damp-induced arthralgia and heat-induced arthralgia. But there was a statistically significant difference in curative effect between the above 4 syndromic types and deficiency-type arthralgia, indicating that the curative effect in deficiency-type arthralgia was worst.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy ofacupuncture plus Tuina therapy in treating supraspinatus tendinitis.Methods:One hundred patients with supraspinatus tendinitis were randomly allocated to two groups.The treatment group of 50 cases was treated with acupuncture plus Tuina therapy and the control group of 50 cases,with simple acupuncture.Treatment was given once daily,10 times as a course.The therapeutic effects were evaluated after two courses oftreatment.Results:The total efficacy rate was 96.0%in the treatment group and 74.0%in the control group.x2 test showed that there was a statistically significant difference in the total efficacy rate between the two groups(P＜0.01).Conclusion:Acupuncture plus Tuina therapy is superior to simple acupuncture in treating supraspinatus tendinitis.

Objective:To investigate the effect of miR-26b on the invasion and migration of lung cancer cell and to explore its mechanism.Methods:qPCR was used to detect the expression of miR-26b in lung cancer.Luciferase reporter gene was used to detect interaction between miR-26b and hENT1.Transwell assay was used to detect invasion ability after treatment of miR-26b mimics.Scratch assay was used to detect migration ability after treatment of miR-26b mimics.The expressions of hENT1,ROCK-I and RhoA were detected by Western blot.The changes of cytoskeleton after miR-26b mimics treatment with phalloidin were observed.The effect of miR-26b mimics on the tumor size and volume of lung cancer was determined by subcutaneous tumor formation in nude mice.Results:MiR-26b expression was significantly reduced in lung cancer.With the progress of lung cancer,the expression of miR-26b was reduced.With the progress in differentiation of lung cancer,the expression of miR-26b was decreased.Decrease of miR-26b was associated with lung cancer lymph node metastasis.HENT1 was the direct target of miR-26b;miR-26b regulated the invasion and migration ability of human lung carcinoma A549 cells.MiR-26b regulated the expression of hENT1,ROCK-1 and RhoA.After the treatment with miR-26b mimics,the F-actin staining was significantly reduced,whereas the formation of wrinkles and the formation of pseudopodia were significantly reduced.Subcutaneous tumor formation in nude mice showed that miR-26b mimics treatment significantly reduced the tumor size and mass.Conclusion:MiR-26b plays a role in tumor suppression in lung cancer.miR-26b can regulate the invasion and migration ability of lung carcinoma A549 cells by targeting hENT1 depending on the RhoA/ROCK-1 pathway.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and risk factors of cytomegalovirus (CMV)infection in AIDS patients.Methods A total of 471 AIDS patients,including 173 with CMV infection and 298 without CMV infection were enrolled from Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University from June 2015 to August 2016.Multivariate Logistic regression was performed to analyze the risk factors for AIDS patients infected with CMV.Results Among 173 patients co-infected with CMV,103 (59.54%)were diagnosed as CMV viremia,70(40.46%)were CMV end-organ diseases (EOD),in which CMV pneumonia (n =33)and CMV retinitis (n =22)were the most frequent diseases.Univariate analysis showed that sexual transmission,low CD4 +T lymphocyte counts,first visit,tuberculosis,pneumococcal pneumonia (PCP), long hospital stay and septicemia were risk factors of cytomegalovirus infection among patients with AIDS (P <0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that CD4 +T lymphocyte <50 cells/μL (OR =3.897,95%CI 2.354-6.453),concomitant tuberculosis(OR =4.619,95%CI 2.501 -8.529),PCP (OR =4.062,95%CI 2.345-7.038),sepsis (OR =2.553,95%CI 1 .098-5.936)were independent risk factors for CMV infection,while antiretroviral therapy (OR =0.559,95%CI 0.342-0.912)was a protective factor.Conclusions Hospitalized AIDS patients have a high incidence of CMV infection which has a tendency to induce multiple organ damage,and relevant risk factors should be avoid to accentuate disease as much as possible.

tumours was found to be slightly faster than those of the controls.Conclusion:Hes1 is overexpressed in colon cancer than that in normal tissue, and Hes1 is upregulated in poorly differentiated cancer samples compared with well-differentiated tumour samples. Hes1 has a positive inlfuence on the ability of tumour-formation in SW620 cellsin vivo.

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) play pivotal roles for monitoring the tumor metastasis and prognosis.The nanotechnology provides a favourable platform for CTCs detection,and enables CTCs to be more promising for practical application.Meanwhile,the nanoscale device by virtue of nanotechnology has broad application prospects in eliminating CTCs and offers a new direction in the field of anti-cancer.

Objective:To provide a new idea for the management of drug inspection standards. Methods: The current manage-ment mode for drug inspection standards was analyzed and studied, the problems and difficulties were summarized, and then a novel i-dea and method of electronic management was formulated. Results: The electronic management for drug inspection standards could solve the problems encountered in the traditional management effectively and improve the management efficiency. Conclusion: The standard management information system can provide drug inspection standards in time and ensure the effectiveness, which is very help-ful to the drug inspection.

Thyroid cancer is the most common malignant tumor of the human endocrine system. A papillary thyroid microcarci-noma (PTMC) is usually defined as a papillary thyroid tumor that is less than 10 mm in diameter. The incidence of thyroid cancers has obviously increased in recent years. The surgical treatment of PTMC differs in China and overseas. Aside from conventional surgery, novel surgical methods, such as ultrasound-guided percutaneous ablation, have been used for the surgical treatment of PTMC. This arti-cle mainly discusses the research progress in the surgical treatment of PTMC.
