This paper summarizes the experience of professor LIU Shangyi in differentiating and treating rectal carcinoma from the perspective of "treating ulcers as tumors". It is believed that the manifestations of rectal cancer， such as anal itching， cauliflower-like or ulcerative tumors， and bloody stools， are similar to external skin itching， skin ulceration， swelling， and skin bleeding. Therefore， the treatment principles of sores and ulcers department can be applied to treat tumors. Following the diagnostic and treatment approach of dermatology regarding the clinical typical symptoms， for anal itching， the main treatment is to dispel wind and remove dampness， clear heat to relieve itching， using "skin medicinals" such as Difuzi （Fructus Kochiae） and Baixianpi （Cortex Dictamni）， as well as wind medicinals such as Shengma （Rhizoma Cimicifugae） and Fangfeng （Radix Saposhnikoviae）. For constipation， the method of clearing heat and resolving toxins， unblocking the bowels and discharging heat can be used， commonly using Baitouweng （Radix Pulsatillae）， Donglingcao （Herba Rabdosiae Rubescentis） and Dahuang （Radix et Rhizoma Rhei）. In terms of mucosal ulcers， it is critical to differentiate between yin and yang； the treatment of yang ulcers should focus on clearing heat and resolving toxins， commonly using modified Xianfang Huoming Beverage （仙方活命饮）； for yin ulcers， emphasis should be placed on removing dampness and resolving phlegm， commonly with modified Yiyi Fuzi Baijiang Powder （薏苡附子败酱散）. For bloody stool， differentiation is made between deficiency and excess， with the use of Diyu （Radix Sanguisorbae） and Huaihua （Flos Sophorae） for excess syndrome to cool and stop blee-ding， and both herbs dry-fried until charred combined with liver-tonifying medicinals for deficiency syndrome

In order to explore the role of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(STAT3)in the infection process of porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis virus(PHEV),Western blot,qRT-PCR and indirect immunofluorescence experiments were used to detect the phosphoryla-tion level and subcellular localization changes of STAT3 after PHEV infection.The replication of PHEV were examined in cells with STAT3 knockdown or overexpression,respectively.The results showed the phosphorylation level of STAT3 at tyrosine 705 was significantly increased after PHEV infection,and the expression of STAT3 in the nucleus increased.In addition,STAT3 knock-down in cells can significantly inhibit PHEV replication.The above results further reveal the path-ogenic mechanism of PHEV and provide a theoretical basis for the research of anti-PHEV drugs.

Objective To detect the expression level of serum LncRNA P53RRA in patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and explore its clinical application value in the diagnosis of HCC.Methods Ninety-three patients with primary HCC visited Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from November 2019 to December 2020 were selected as the HCC group and 88 healthy individuals undergone physical examination as the control group.Their serum samples were collected and the expression levels of serum LncRNA P53RRA were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR).The correlations of serum P53RRA levels with clinicopathological parameters and clinical biochemical indicators such as alanine aminotransferase(ALT),glutamate amin-otransferase(AST),gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase(GGT),and alkaline phosphatase(ALP)in HCC patients were analyzed.The diagnostic value of serum P53RRA for HCC was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results The expres-sion levels of serum P53RRA in HCC patients(2.15±0.22)were significantly lower than that in healthy controls(3.54±0.33),and the difference was statistically significant(t=3.489,P＜0.05).The analysis of clinicopathological parameters showed that the expres-sion levels of serum P53RRA in HCC patients were correlated with tumor staging(χ2=9.590,P＜0.05),α-fetoprotein(AFP,χ2=5.732,P＜0.05),and GGT(χ2=5.732,P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve(AUCROC)of ser-um P53RRA in the diagnosis of HCC was 0.750(95%CI:0.679-0.821),with a sensitivity of 65.6%and specificity of 64.8%.The AUCROC,sensitivity and specificity of P53RRA combined with AFP and GGT in the diagnosis of HCC were 0.911(95%CI:0.867-0.953),88.2%and 70.5%,respectively,which were higher than those of single indicator.Conclusion LncRNA P53RRA is expec-ted to serve as a novel non-invasive biomarker,effectively assisting in the clinical diagnosis of HCC.

OBJECTIVE To detect the phenotypes and genotypes of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae(CRE)strains and understand the drug resistance phenotypes and molecular characteristics of the CRE strains.METHODS Totally 85 strains of CRE were isolated and restored in microbiology lab of Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from Jan.2019 to Aug.2023.The phenotypes of carbapenemases were detected by means of carbapenemase inhibitor enhancement test,the genotypes of carbapenemases were detected by polymerase chain reaction(PCR),and the sequence type(ST)was further analyzed by multilocus sequence typing(MLST).RESULTS Among the 85 strains of CRE that were detected for phenotypes,54 strains carried serinase(type A carbapenemase),23 strains carried metalloenzyme(type B carbapenemase),5 strains produced both type A and type B carbapenemase,and 3 strains produced neither the type A and/or type B carbapenemase.Totally 5 common genotypes of carbapenemases were amplified for 73 strains of CRE,the detection rate of blaKPC was highest,fol-lowed by blaNDM;the drug resistance genes blaIMP,blaVIM and blaOXA-48 were not detected.The 51 strains of car-bapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)were classified into 7 types of ST in total,which were as fol-lows:ST1,ST11,ST15,ST23,ST34,ST690,ST4862.CONCLUSIONS The isolation rate of CRKP is highest among the CRE strains,and ST11 is the most prevalent strain.Serinase is the most common drug resistance phe-notype,and KPC type carbapenemase is the predominant drug resistance genotype.

The SVA and different serotypes of VSV(VSNJV and VSIV)are susceptible to infect pigs and cause blister injuries to the lips and hoof of pigs.The clinical symptoms of diseases caused by these viruses are very similar,which is easy to cause misdiagnosis.Therefore,a multiplex nano-PCR method was developed for the simultaneous defection of VSV,VSNJV and VSIV.In this stud-y,three pairs of specific primers were designed according to the SVA-P gene,VSNJV-N gene and VSIV-N gene.The optimal annealing temperature and optimal primer concentration were tested,and the reaction system and conditions were optimized.We have developed a novel,rapid and sensitive multiple nano-PCR detection method for simultaneous detection of SVA,VSNJV and VSIV,which was developed by using nano-metal materials.The specific test results showed that the method could specifically amplify the target genes of SVA,VSNJV and VSIV,with no cross-reactivity to PRV,ASFV,PCV2 and PHEV.The sensitivity test results showed that the minimum nucleic acid detection of the method was 10 copies/μL,which sensitivity was great.In addition,the optimal primers showed good reactivity and stability to different batches of enzymes and plasmids.There were 7 among 50 of diseased pig samples were SVA positive by multiple nano-PCR detec-tion method,and 5 out of 50 of diseased pig samples were SVA positive by ordinary single PCR method.Moreover,no VSNJV and VSIV were detected by the two methods.In conclusion,this es-tablished multiple nano-PCR detection method has higher specificity and sensitivity in the detec-tion of SVA,VSNJV and VSIV.And this study could provide technical support for the rapid differ-ential diagnosis,prevention and control of swine viral vesicular diseases in clinical settings.

Objective:To investigate improvement of dexamethasone(DM)treatment after intrauterine adhesion decomposition on uterine fibrosis and inflammatory factors.Methods:A total of 60 patients with moderate to severe intrauterine adhesions admitted to The Reproductive Medicine Center of Jilin Provincial People's Hospital from March 2021 to March 2023 were selected,and divided into experimental group and control group according to random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.Control group under-went simple hysteroscopic adhesion decomposition,and experimental group underwent intrauterine infusion treatment with DM injec-tion after intrauterine adhesion decomposition.Improvement of clinical symptoms in the two groups was observed.RT-qPCR was used to detect changes in mRNA levels of intimal receptivity-related factors ER,EGFR,LIF,ITGB3,HOXA10,HOXA11,fibrosis-related factors TGF-β1,E-cadherin,N-cadherin,Smad,and inflammatory related factors IL-8,IL-2 and CD138 in two groups.Western blot was used to detect changes in expression levels of inflammatory related proteins IL-8,IL-2 and CD138.Results:Compared with before treatment,endometrial thickness,mRNA levels of ER,EGFR,LIF,ITGB3,HOXA10,HOXA11 and E-cadherin were significantly increased,while mRNA levels of TGF-β1,N-cadherin,Smad,IL-8,IL-2 and CD138,protein levels of IL-8,IL-2 and CD138,and endometrial blood flow parameters PI,RI and adhesion were significantly decreased.Eendometrial thickness,mRNA levels of ER,EGFR,LIF,ITGB3,HOXA10,HOXA11 and E-cadherin in experimental group were significantly higher than those in control group,while mRNA levels of IL-8,IL-2,TGF-β1,N-cadherin,Smad,CD138,IL-8,IL-2 and CD138,and endometrial blood flow parameters PI,RI and adhesion were lower than those in control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Treatment of DM after intrauterine adhe-sion decomposition can improve intrauterine adhesion,blood flow parameters and endometrial receptivity,and prevent the recurrence of intrauterine adhesion,which mechanism may be related to up-regulation of E-cadherin expression and down-regulation of IL-8,IL-2,CD138,TGF-β1,N-cadherin and Smad expressions.
