Based on LI Gao's Academic Thought, focusing on the process of qi transformation and taking the regulation and restoration of metabolism and immunity as the entry point, a "source-pivot-convergence" diagnostic and therapeutic model for malignant tumors is constructed. In this model, spleen and stomach internal injury is the source of malignant tumor occurrence, while the disorder of ascending and descending is the pivot of the disease development, and the generation of yin fire is the convergence of malignant tumor progression. Based on this, the three major therapeutic methods of clearing the source, harmonizing the pivot, and resolving the convergence are established. To fortify spleen and boost qi, consolidate the root and clear the source, modified Buzhong Yiqi Decoction(补中益气汤)can be used. To raise the clear and direct the turbid downward, regulate qi and harmonize the pivot, modified Shengyang Yiwei Decoction (升阳益胃汤) is suggested. To restore balance and promote circulation, disperse accumulation and resolve convergence, modified Shengyang Sanhuo Decoction (升阳散火汤) is selected. In clinical practice, these formulas can be used in combination according to the complexity of the pathogenesis, and further adapted with prescriptions for promoting dispersion and penetrating pathogenic factors, resolving phlegm and promoting circulation, activating blood and eliminating concretions, which can provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of tumor diseases.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the application effectiveness of the full disinfection process in blood stations, identify key optimization links, and provide a scientific evidence for the formulation of specialized disinfection and hygiene standards for blood collection and supply institutions. Methods: On-site microbiological monitoring was conducted using techniques such as the plate settling method and cotton swab method. Stratified random sampling was performed on eight key control points: including evironmental air, hand hygiene, skin disinfection, blood transport boxes, pressure steam sterilization, sewage treatment, ultraviolet disinfection, and sterile swabs. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 20.0. Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation(x-±s), and inter-group comparisons were conducted using t-tests or analysis of variance (ANOVA). Count data were expressed as rates, and inter-group comparisons were conducted using the χ
test. Trend analysis was performed using the Cochran-Armitage test, with a significance level of α=0.05. Results: The colony removal rate of plasma air disinfection machines (94.2%±0.8%) was significantly higher than that of the ultraviolet group (P<0.05). The qualification rate of quick-drying disinfectant hand was 100% within 30 days after opening the bottle, but decreased to 93.3% after 40 days (P<0.01). The qualification rate of disinfection for blood transport boxes using 500 mg/L chlorine-containing disinfectant (100%) was significant higher 75% alcohol (60%, P< 0.05). Skin disinfection with 2% alcoholic chlorhexidine gluconate balanced effectiveness and user experience (satisfaction score 4.8±0.3). The qualification rates for core procedures such as pressure steam sterilization and sewage treatment were both 100%. Conclusion: The current disinfection procedures in blood collection and supply institutions are reliable. The effective usage period of hand disinfectants, disinfection methods for transport boxes, and usage duration of sterile swabs are the main points for optimization. It is recommended that the opened hand disinfectants be used for ≤30 days and that chlorine-containing disinfectants be prioritized for wiping transport boxes, providing empirical support for the revision of protocols and the formulation of standards.

BACKGROUND:Deep muscle stimulation has the effects of releasing muscle adhesion,relieving muscle spasm,improving and restoring muscle compliance and elasticity.Electromyographic biofeedback therapy can promote nerve recovery and improve lower limb motor function and gait. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of the effect of deep muscle stimulation combined with electromyographic biofeedback therapy on the spasm of the triceps surae and gait changes after stroke by using a digital muscle detector and three-dimensional gait analysis system. METHODS:A total of 72 patients who met the inclusion criteria were selected from the Rehabilitation Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Pharmaceutical University from October 2020 to October 2023.And they were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups(n=36 per group):a control group and a combined group.The control group received routine rehabilitation therapies,electromyographic biofeedback and pseudo deep muscle stimulation,while the combined group received true deep muscle stimulation treatment on the basis of the control group,five times per week,for 4 consecutive weeks.The oscillation frequency and dynamic stiffness of the affected gastrocnemius muscle,active range of motion of the ankle dorsiflexion muscle,electromyographic signal of the tibialis anterior muscle,Fugl-Meyer assessment of the lower limbs,and three-dimensional gait analysis parameters were statistically analyzed before and after treatment in two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After treatment,oscillation frequency and dynamic stiffness values of the inner and outer sides of the affected gastrocnemius muscle in both groups of patients were significantly reduced compared with before treatment(P<0.05),and the combined group showed a more significant decrease compared with the control group(P<0.05).The active range of motion of the ankle dorsiflexion muscle,electromyographic signal of the tibialis anterior muscle,and Fugl-Meyer scores after treatment were significantly increased or improved compared with before treatment(P<0.05),while the combined group showed a more significant increase or improvement compared with the control group(P<0.05).In terms of gait parameters,the walking speed,frequency,and stride in both groups of patients were significantly increased compared with before treatment(P<0.05),while the combined group showed a more significant increase compared with the control group(P<0.05).The percentage time of support phase on the healthy side was shortened compared with before treatment(P<0.05),while the combined group showed a more significant decrease compared with the control group(P<0.05).In addition,there was no significant difference between the two groups except for the percentage of healthy side support(P>0.05).To conclude,the combination of deep muscle stimulation and electromyographic biofeedback can effectively alleviate triceps spasm in the short term after stroke,improve ankle dorsiflexion function,enhance lower limb motor function,and improve gait.The treatment effect is significant and worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective:To develop a tool package that meets the routine statistical analysis requirements of population-based cancer registries in China based on R language, with the aim of improving data quality and efficiency, and promoting the nationwide scientific utilization of cancer registry data.Methods:The functional demands for statistical analysis of population-based cancer registry staff were collected through questionnaires or face-to-face interviews. Based on the concept of generic functions in R software's S3 object system, functions were developed by defining specific S3 classes for different data types, allowing the same function to perform diverse tasks depending on the class of input data. A stepwise development strategy was adopted to ensure logical coherence among functional modules, and all functions were systematically tested and validated in accordance with standard R package development guidelines.Results:Six categories of functions, including data reading, data manipulation, data processing, statistical calculation, visualization, and statistical reporting, were developed to support routine statistical analysis of population-based cancer registry data. Data reading functions support reading data formats required by the National Cancer Registry. Data manipulation functions empower conditional filtering of registry data and support regrouping, merging, or transforming the data based on registry attributes (such as urban/rural location) to accommodate different analytical needs. Data processing functions includes age grouping, International Classification of Diseases 10 th Revision (ICD-10) classification, childhood cancer classification, and population estimation. Statistical calculation functions permit the calculation of age-standardized rates, truncated rates, cumulative rates, cumulative risks, life tables, and expansion from abridged to complete life tables. Visualization functions can generate commonly used statistical charts, including population pyramids, bar charts, and line graphs. Statistical reporting functions can integrate key indicators, charts, and narrative descriptions into comprehensive cancer registry reports. Conclusion:An R package named Canregtools was developed based on the concept of S3 generic functions. This package is free of charge, open-source, and highly efficient. It can meet the diversified needs in cancer registry data analysis, visualization, and reporting through standardized data processing workflows, thereby enhancing the quality and efficiency of routine statistical analysis in population-based cancer registries in China.

Mitophagy,a special form of selective autophagy,plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis by regulating cellular lipid metabolism,inflammation,and oxidative stress.However,its regulatory mech-anism is complex and has not been fully elucidated.Notably,many drugs and herbal ingredients exhibit anti-atherosclerot-ic effects by modulating mitophagy in macrophages,vascular endothelial cells,and vascular smooth muscle cells,offering potential new avenues for the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis.In this article,we review the role of mitophagy in regulating cellular functions and the progression of atherosclerosis,as well as summarize potential therapeutic drugs that may contribute to anti-atherosclerosis by modulating mitophagy.Our aim is to provide a new literature basis for further ex-ploration of the role of mitophagy in atherosclerosis.

Purpose The study aimed to analyze the relationship between MET gene variants and clinicopathologi-cal features in patients with non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods Next-generation sequencing technology was used to detect MET gene variants in NSCLC specimens.The association between MET gene variant status and clini-copathological features was then analyzed.Results Among 1 633 cases of NSCLC,the overall MET mutation rate was 4.53%(74/1 633).Variants were mainly observed in male patients,never-smokers,those older than 60 years,ade-nocarcinoma histology,and patients with TNM stage Ⅲ+Ⅳ disease(P<0.05).MET gene variant status showed no significant assocication with patient age,sex,smoking history,or pathological subtype(P>0.05),but was statistical-ly correlated with clinical stage and presence of distant metastasis(P<0.05).The two major variant types were MET exon 14 skipping and MET amplification,which together accounted for 71.62%of all variants.In addition,MET am-plification was positively correlated with EGFR(P=0.003,rs=0.340)and TP53 mutations(P=0.002,rs=0.362),but showed no correlation with KRAS or ALK gene mutations.In contrast,MET exon 14 skipping was nega-tively correlated with EGFR gene mutations(P<0.001,rs=-0.409),and showed no significant correlation with KRAS,ALK,or TP53 mutations.Conclusion Different types of MET gene variants(amplification,exon 14 skip-ping,fusion,and others)are significantly associated with clinical advanced clinical stage and distant metastasis in NSCLC,but are independent of patient age,sex,smoking history,and pathological subtype.MET amplification fre-quently co-occur with EGFR and TP53 co-mutations.

Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism of hepatic fibrosis(HF)regulation by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells(LSECs)via endothelial mesenchymal transition(EnMT),and to predict the natural active components using bioinformatics,machine learning,and cellular experiments.Methods HF and EnMT gene matrices were obtained and the intersecting genes were extracted and enriched using Limma difference analysis and weighted gene co-expression network analysis(WGCNA).The diagnostic genes were screened using a combination of random forest method,support vector machine-recursive feature elimination and network topology analysis,and immune infiltration analysis and prediction of natural active ingredients were performed.The expression of diagnostic genes and the pharmacological effects of the predicted ingredients were finally verified by cellular experiments.Results Differential analysis yielded 3034 EnMT-associated and 4133 HF-associated differential genes.WGCNA analysis yielded 4589 EnMT-associated Hub genes and 763 HF-associated Hub genes.Thirty-eight intersecting genes were extracted,which were mainly enriched in the pathways of basement membrane and extracellular matrix receptor interaction.Four diagnostic genes,CFP,COL4A2,ITGA1,and GRPEL1,were screened by multidimensional analysis.Immune infiltration analysis showed that the diagnostic genes were closely associated with mast cell resting state,memory B cells,and memory CD4+T cells.Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis showed significantly increased mRNA expression levels of the four diagnostic genes in the Jagged1-induced model group(P<0.05).The predicted components,sterol,kaempferol,and quercetin,all had good binding activities with the diagnostic genes.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay result confirmed that all three active components significantly reduced the expression of collagen type Ⅳ α2 chain protein in Jagged1-induced LSECs,with quercetin having the most significant effect(P<0.01).Conclusions This study elucidated the molecular mechanism of hepatic sinusoidal endothelial cells involved in the pathological process of HF through mesenchymal transition.We also propose a diagnostic marker system including CFP,COL4A2,ITGA1,and GRPEL1 as core genes.The result also suggest that natural active ingredients,such as quercetin,may exert anti-HF pharmacological effects by targeting these diagnostic genes.
