Myofascial trigger points, as hyperirritable spots within taut bands of skeletal muscle, can induce local or referred pain, and show a high degree of similarity to acupoints in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), particularly the so-called sinew knot lesion point. From the perspective of channel sinew theory, and by examining the correlations of myofascial trigger points with acupoints and channel sinew disorders, this study aims to compare the similarities and differences between MTrPs and sinew knot lesion points in terms of pathological mechanisms, needling analgesic mechanisms, and therapeutic approaches. The goal is to deepen the understanding of MTrPs and dry needling, and provide a modern scientific perspective on channel sinew theory and the sinew knot lesion point.

The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon gene (STING) signal pathway is a classical pathway of STING activation, and in recent years, its role in stimulating innate immunity has gradually attracted wide attention. Besides, cGAS can recognize and combine endogenous or exogenous DNA, then catalyze ATP and GTP to synthesize cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate (cGAMP), subsequently activate STING signal to promote type I interferon and inflammatory factors, finally induce natural and adaptive immunity. Existing studies have indicated that cGAS-STING signal pathway plays an important role in infections, inflammations and tumors, especially in high-grade gliomas with poor clinical treatment efficacy. Here, we briefly summarize the cGAS-STING signal pathway and its mechanism in brain tumors to provide new ideas for exploring therapeutic targets and drugs for brain tumors.

Objective:Objectives To investigate the predictive value of color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) for the proteinuria following pyeloplasty for congenital ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) in children.Methods:We identified a series of 206 children with a mean age of (20.0±28.8) months (1-132 months), consisted of 171 males and 35 females, diagnosed with congenital UPJO accepted pyeloplasty from January 2014 to September 2018, the preoperative mean urinary Albumin/Creatinine Ratio (ACR) was (17.3±160.1) mg/mmol and the mean β2-microglobulin/Creatinine Ratio (β2-MG/Cr) was (135.6±383.8) μg/mmol, ultrasound showed a mean renal pelvis dilatation of (3.1±1.5) cm and a mean cortical thickness of (0.3±0.1) cm, and classified as grade Ⅰ-Ⅴ according to the blood flow distribution in renal by CDFI, these children were divided into three groups of increased, decreased and unchanged blood flow according to the postoperative CDFI within 1 week, the postoperative urinary protein and renal function indexes within 1 week and 2 years were retrospectively analysed among groups.Results:Within 1 week postoperatively, an increased, decreased and unchanged blood flow occurred in 113 (54.9%), 31(15.0%), 62(30.1%) children, respectively. Urinary ACR in above mentioned groups was (112.3±400.7), (16.1±29.3), (32.7±48.4) mg/mmol, β2-MG/Cr was (887.4±6061.0), (50.2±62.7), (51.9±57.8)μg/mmol, there were significant differences among groups ( P<0.01). Contralateral hydronephrosis occurred in 21(18.6%), 4(12.9%), 8(12.9%) children, urinary N-Acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) was (7.5±5.2), (7.0±5.4)、(5.7±4.5) U/L, these indexes showed no significant differences among groups. There was a positive correlation between the increased blood flow level and the decreased renal pelvis dilatation (Spearman’s correlation coefficient 0.2, P<0.01), ACR (Spearman’s correlation coefficient 0.4, P<0.01) and β2-MG/Cr (Spearman’s correlation coefficient 0.3, P<0.01). After a follow up of 2 years, 67 children were diagnosed with proteinuria in this series, 51 cases of them with an increased blood flow, which had significantly higher percentage than children with a decreased (4 cases, 12.9%) or unchanged blood flow (12 cases, 19.3%). Logistic multivariate analysis indicated that early postoperative (within 1 week) increased blood flow ( OR=1.9, 95% CI 1.5-2.6), contralateral hydronephrosis ( OR=2.2, 95% CI 1.1-4.8) and urinary NAG ( OR=1.1, 95% CI 1.0-1.1) were predictive of proteinuria, the increased blood flow was independent predictor of proteinuria (Ⅰ level increased: OR=1.9, 95% CI 1.5-2.6). Conclusions:The CDFI reveals good predictive value for the postoperative proteinuria, an early marked increased blood flow postoperatively indicated risk of proteinuria in the long term.

It is necessary to provide a SPARQL query tool for biomedical researchers due to the massive data of bi-omedical ontology. However, manual input of SPARQL query statements is quite complicated and easy to produce errors. A Cytospace-based parameterized SPARQL query system was thus developed for biomedical ontology, which can generate a module with SPARQL query conditions used as parameters. Biomedical researchers can thus rapidly, easily and directly retrieve the data in several biomedical ontology knowledge libraries instead of manual input of SPARQL query statements.

Objective To analyze the current literatures on perineum nursing with traditional Chinese medicine for preventing catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI).Methods The literatures were retrieved with free words and key words from the Chinese biomedical literature database (CBM), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang database, VIP database (VIP) before November 2016. The retrieval results were evaluated by 2 reviewers independently. Data was extracted using modified JADAD scale.Results Nine literatures were included in the study, with low quality (0-3 points). No high quality literatures (4-7 points) were involved. Conclusions The studies on preventing CAUTI with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) are at the first step. High quality literatures are seldom. Methodology studies are required to provide evidences for preventing CAUTI, especially for high risk and special patients.
