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

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.

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 investigate the mechanism of Astragali Complanati Semen in the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia;To provide theoretical basis for its clinical application.Methods The active components of Astragali Complanati Semen were retrieved and screened through TCMSP,TCMID and TDT databases to obtain the action targets of the active components.Hyperlipidemia targets were obtained through GeneCards,DisGeNET,and TTD databases,and the drug active component targets were intersected with hyperlipidemia targets.Cytoscape 3.9.1 software and STRING database were used to construct active component-target network and protein-protein interaction network,screening for major active components and core targets.GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was performed using the DAVID database,and the CB-Dock platform was used for molecular docking.HepG2 cells were induced to construct a high-fat cell model using oleic acid and palmitic acid,and intervened with Astragali Complanati Semen freeze-dried powder solution.The mRNA expression of the core target was detected by RT-qPCR.Results A total of 10 active components of Astragali Complanati Semen and 67 potential action targets of hyperlipidemia were identified,involving signaling pathways such as AGE-RAGE,lipid metabolism,HIF-1,etc.Experimental results showed that intervention with Astragali Complanati Semen could reduce lipid accumulation in the high-lipid cell model,with an optimal intervention concentration of 500 μg/mL;RT-qPCR revealed significant down-regulation of TNFα,IL6,AKT1,PPARG,and other genes after intervention with Astragali Complanati Semen.Conclusion Astragali Complanati Semen exerts lipid-regulating effects through multiple targets and pathways,providing a basis for its application in the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia.

Objective To observe and compare the therapeutic effects of aflibercept biosimilar and originator afliber-cept through intravitreal injection in patients with age-related wet macular degeneration(AMD).Methods This retro-spective study enrolled 60 AMD patients(60 eyes)who were diagnosed and treated at the Department of Ophthalmology,Zibo Central Hospital,from January 2024 to May 2024.These patients were divided into two groups.Specifically,30 pa-tients(30 eyes)(the originator group)received the intravitreal injection of originator aflibercept,while another 30 patients(30 eyes)(the biosimilar group)received the intravitreal injection of aflibercept biosimilar.All patients followed a 3+PRN treatment regimen with a follow-up period of at least 6 months.Relevant examinations including best-corrected visual acui-ty(BCVA),optical coherence tomography,corneal endothelial microscopy,and multifocal electroretinogram(mfERG)were performed before and after treatment.Moreover,the BCVA,central retinal thickness(CRT),pigment epithelial de-tachment(PED)height,corneal endothelial cell density,hexagonal cell ratio,coefficient of variation(CV)of corneal en-dothelial cells,P1 wave amplitude density of the first ring,number of intravitreal injections,and incidence of complications were compared between both groups.Results No statistically significant differences were observed in the age,sex ratio,or disease duration between both groups(all P＞0.05).After treatment,the BCVA,CRT,and PED height of patients in both groups decreased,and the P1 wave amplitude density of the first ring increased in both groups,with statistically sig-nificant differences compared with baseline values(all P＜0.05).In the originator group,the corneal endothelial cell den-sity,hexagonal cell ratio,and CV of corneal endothelial cells of patients in both groups increased after treatment,while the biosimilar group showed a decrease in the corneal endothelial cell density and hexagonal cell ratio,alongside an increase in the CV of corneal endothelial cells;however,these changes were not statistically significant compared with baseline values(all P＞0.05).No significant difference was observed in the number of intravitreal injections between both groups(P＞0.05).The correlation analysis results revealed positive associations between disease duration and post-treatment BCVA(logMAR)in both groups(r=0.901 and 0.905,respectively;both P＜0.000 1).No severe ocular complications or cardio-vascular/cerebrovascular events occurred in all patients.Conclusion There is no significant difference in the short-term efficacy between originator aflibercept and aflibercept biosimilar in the treatment of patients with wet AMD.

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.
