ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture combined with bloodletting and cupping in the treatment of chronic spontaneous urticaria（CSU） and to explore its potential mechanisms of action. MethodsSeventy CSU patients were randomly divided into loratadine group and acupuncture + bloodletting group， with 35 patients in each group. The loratadine group received oral loratadine tablets， 10 mg once daily in the evening. The acupuncture + bloodletting group received acupuncture at Zhongwan （CV 12）， Guanyuan （CV 4）， Tianshu （ST 25）， Zusanli （ST 36）， Sanyinjiao （SP 6）， Xuehai （SP 10）， Quchi （LI 11）， Hegu （LI 4）， Taichong （LR 3）， Baihui （GV 20）， and Shenting （GV 24）， once daily，along with bloodletting and cupping at Dazhui （GV 14） and Geshu （BL 17）， every other day. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks. The 7-day urticaria activity score（UAS7） was assessed before and after the treatment， and levels of serum immunoglobulin E （IgE）， interleukin-4 （IL-4）， interleukin-5 （IL-5）， eosinophil cationic protein （ECP）， plasma tissue factor （TF）， activated factor Ⅶ （FⅦa）， prothrombin fragment 1+2 （F1+2）， D-dimer （D-D） and complement component 5a （C5a） were detected. ResultsA total of 65 patients were included in the final analysis， 32 in the loratadine group and 33 in the acupuncture + bloodletting group. Before treatment， there was no significant difference in UAS7 score， serum IgE， IL-4， IL-5， ECP levels， or plasma TF， FⅦa， F1+2， D-D， C5a levels between groups （P＞ 0.05）. After treatment， both groups showed significant reductions in UAS7 score， serum IgE， IL-4， IL-5， and plasma TF， FⅦa， F1+2， D-D， and C5a levels compared to those before treatment （P＜0.01）. However， after treatment， there was no significant difference in UAS7 score and serum ECP， IgE， IL-4， IL-5 levels between groups （P＞0.05）. The acupuncture + bloodletting group showed lower plasma TF， FⅦa， F1+2， D-D and C5a levels compared to the loratadine group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionAcupuncture combined with bloodletting and cupping can effectively improve the skin symptoms of CSU patients and reduce the levels of inflammatory factors. The potential mechanism of action may involve the regulation of the coagulation-complement-mast cell activation axis， thereby inhibiting mast cell degranulation.

Objective To compare the curative efficacy of balloon stent kissing technique and jailed wire technique in treating coronary bifurcation lesions(CBL)in the elderly patients.Methods A total of 104 elderly patients with CBL,who received interventional surgery from January 2023 to December 2023 in the First Hospital of Hebei University and Hebei Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were enrolled in this study.The patients were divided into balloon stent group(n=51,using balloon stent kissing technique)and jailed wire group(n=53,using jailed wire technique).The postoperative changes in diseased vessels,myocardial and endothelial function injuries were compared between the two groups,and the incidence of postoperative major adverse cardiovascular event(MACE)was calculated.Results Half a year after surgery,in both groups the minimum internal diameters of the arterial main branch and lateral branches were larger than their preoperative values(P＜0.05),and the stenosis ratio of the lesion segment was smaller than the preoperative value(P＜0.05).In balloon stent group,the minimum internal diameter of lateral branches was larger than that in jailed wire group(P＜0.05),and the stenosis ratio of the lesion segment was smaller than that in jailed wire group(P＜0.05).Seven days after surgery,in both groups the levels of serum BNP,hs-cTnI,CK-MB,ET-1 and vWF were lower than their preoperative values,while the level of serum NO was higher than its preoperative value.The changes in the above indicators in balloon stent group were more obvious than in jailed wire group.No statistically significant difference in the incidence of MACE existed between the two groups(x2=1.605,P=0.205).Conclusion In treating elderly patients with CBL,both balloon stent kissing technique and jailed wire technique can improve the stenosis degree of the arterial main branch and lateral branches,but balloon stent kissing technique is superior to jailed wire technique in improving postoperative short-term myocardial function and endothelial function.

BACKGROUND:Anybody musculoskeletal modeling system uses mathematical modeling techniques to simulate the relationship between human bones,muscles,and the environment,allowing for the study of inverse dynamics of the human body and obtaining indicators such as lower limb joint forces.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the stress distribution patterns of lower limb joints during the practice of Tai Chi movements,thereby exploring the scientific training and exercise value of Tai Chi.METHODS:Eight Tai Chi master-level athletes were selected from the Wushu College of Beijing Sport University for data collection,including seven sets of stepping movements and CT scans of the right femur.The BTS infrared capture system and Kistler three-dimensional force platform were used to collect kinematic and mechanical data of the seven sets of stepping movements in Tai Chi(Eight Methods and Five Steps).The Anybody 7.2 musculoskeletal model's multi-body dynamics simulation technology was utilized to calculate lower limb joint dynamic parameters,and Workbench 19.2 was used to perform stress analysis on the femur.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Using Workbench software,the stress results of the femur for seven sets of movements were obtained.The peak stress values of the seven sets of movements in descending order were:Retreat and Rollback(22.00 MPa),Retreat and Pluck(19.379 MPa),Left and Right Shift Step Squeeze and Press(9.35 MPa),Left and Right Shift Step Elbow Lean(6.30 MPa),Forward Step and Expand(4.68 MPa),Forward Step and Pull(2.57 MPa),and Middle Fixed Standalone Position(0.31 MPa).(2)In the seven sets of stepping movements,the two backward stepping movements resulted in the greatest stress on the femur(P＜0.05),and the maximum stress positions on the femur were different during the movement of the seven sets of actions.(3)It is concluded that during the seven sets of stepping movements in Tai Chi(Eight Methods and Five Steps),stress threshold and maximum stress position of the femur will vary with different movements in five directions(seven sets of movements).Continuous training can comprehensively stimulate the femoral body.Forward stepping movements have a greater impact on the front and upper lateral side of the femoral body,while backward stepping movements have a greater impact on the back and inner side of the femoral body.Left and right lateral stepping movements mainly involve symmetrical stress on both sides of the femoral body.(4)Beginners should train targeted according to the stress characteristics of different stepping movements.During forward and backward stepping movements,attention should be paid to the rotational force of Tai Chi,and during left and right lateral stepping movements,attention should be paid to the medial counterforce.Beginners should focus on the Tai Chi training steps that correspond to their own weaknesses to achieve better exercise outcomes.
