Objective To explore the effects of the regulation of JAK/STAT signaling pathway by the therapy of astringent ulcer and muscle inducing enema on colon injury and mucosal barrier in ulcerative colitis(UC)model rats.Methods A rat model of ulcerative colitis was established using 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid/ethanol method.The model was randomly divided into a normal control group(without modeling),a model group,a positive drug group(mesalazine sustained-release granules 0.42 g·kg-1),a high dose of Lianchuang Shengji Formula(enema 10.5 g·kg-1),a medium dose(enema 5.25 g·kg-1),and a low dose group(enema 2.62 g·kg-1).Compare the fecal occult blood,degree of colonic mucosal damage,and pathological changes of rats in each group,and detect the expression of JAK2,STAT3 proteins,and their phosphorylated proteins in colon tissue using Western blot method.Results The results showed that the mesalazine group,the medium and high-dose groups of Lianchuang Shengji Formula could increase the body mass of rats,reduce fecal occult blood score,improve colon damage,and achieve pathological results;The mesalazine group and the low,medium,and high dose groups of Lianchuang Shengji can downregulate the expression of p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 proteins(compared with the model group,P＜0.05),with the high-dose group being the most significant(P＜0.01).The apoptosis rate of colon tissue significantly decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusion The enema therapy of astringent ulcer and promoting muscle growth can significantly improve the pathological scores of bloody stools and colon injury in rats with ulcerative colitis.The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of JAK2 and STAT3 phosphorylation protein expression,and further inhibition of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of reconstruction of soft tissue defect on the palmar side of 2 adjacent fingers with bilobed perforator flap of medial foot artery.Methods:From September 2020 to September 2023, 6 patients with soft tissue defects on the palmar side of 2 adjacent fingers were treated in the Department of Hand and Foot Microsurgery, the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University. After admission, Doppler ultrasound scan was performed to locate the perforating branches of the deep and superficial branches of medial foot artery, as well as the course of medial foot artery. A bilobed flap with two perforating branches of medial foot artery was used to reconstruct the soft tissue defects on the palmar side of 2 adjacent fingers. The perforators of medial foot artery were anastomosed with the proper palmar digital arteries, and the accompanying veins was anastomosed with the dorsal digital veins. The branches of saphenous nerve were anastomosed with the proper palmar digital nerves. The sizes of soft tissue defect were 4.5 cm×2.0 cm-3.0 cm×1.5 cm, and the flaps sized 5.0 cm×2.5 cm-3.5 cm×2.0 cm. All donor sites for the perforator flaps were covered by artificial dermis (4 patients) or autologous skin grafts (2 patients). Short and long-term follow-up for flap survival, flap shape, scar, and functions of interphalangeal joint and metacarpophalangeal joint function were evaluated in outpatient clinic and WeChat reviews.Results:All the bilobed perforator flaps of medial foot artery survived in 6 patients. There was no infection in the flap and donor area. Wounds in fingers and dornor sites in foot all healed well. Postoperative follow-up ranged 4-12 months, with an average of 9.3 months. The sensation of the palmar fingers recovered well with TPD at 7-10 mm and at 8.5 mm in average. The sensation recoveries were up to S 3-S 4. According to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Function of Hand Surgery of the Chinese Medical Association, 5 patients (10 fingers) were rated as excellent and 1 patient (2 fingers) as good. The donor sites healed well and walking, running, jumping, mountaineering and other food motions were not affected, and without any obvious discomfort. According to the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Societ (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score, the ankle functions of 6 patients were evaluated as excellent. Conclusion:A bilobed perforator flap of medial foot artery is applied to reconstruct the soft tissue defects on the palmar side of 2 adjacent fingers. It can simultaneously reconstruct 2 defects in a single surgery, and offer a fast functional recovery and aesthetical appearance.

Objective To observe the effect of abdominal acupuncture in treating allergic rhinitis(AR).Methods Twenty-seven AR patients who attended Fangshan Hospital,Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from August to October 2022 were selected.They were divided into treatment group(15 cases)and control group(12 cases)according to randomized numerical table method.The treatment group received abdominal acupuncture.The control group at the same point was used one-time sterile cannula acupuncture to simulate acupuncture,but no needle was inserted into the acupoint.Two groups were treated,3 times a week for 4 weeks.The visual analogue scale(VAS),rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire(RQLQ),Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI)scores,and the histamine(HIS),leukotriene D4(LTD4),immunoglobulin E(IgE)levels were compared between two groups before and after treatment.Results At each time point after treatment,the VAS,RQLQ,PSQI scores and HIS,LTD4,IgE levels of patients in treatment group were significantly lower than those before treatment(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in VAS,RQLQ,and PSQI scores,the HIS,LTD4,and IgE levels after 2-week treatment in both groups(P>0.05).After 4-week treatment and follow-up 4-week,the VAS,RQLQ,and PSQI scores,the HIS,and LTD4 levels in treatment group were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Abdominal acupuncture has good therapeutic effect on AR and significantly improves life quality of the patients,which can reduce the levels of HIS,LTD4 and IgE.The therapy is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To evaluate the accuracies of two-dimensional ultrasound(2D-US)and three-dimensional ultrasound virtual organ computer-aided analysis(3D-VOCAL)in measuring uterine myoma volume(UMV).Methods Forty-five patients who underwent surgical treatment for uterine myoma at Longyan First Hospital,Fujian Medical University from October 2022 to April 2023 were selected.Preoperative measurements of UMV were performed using 2D-US and 3D-VOCAL,and the measurement results were compared with the actual UMV after surgical resection to assess the accuracies and repeatabilities of the two ultrasound techniques in measuring UMV.Results The UMV measurement consistency of 3D-VOCAL(ICC=0.992)was higher than that of 2D-US(ICC=0.976),and the ICC values of 3D-VOCAL were higher than those of 2D-US in UM of different sizes(all P<0.001).Statistically significant differences among 2D-US,3D-VOCAL and postoperative measurement results was found in UM with a maximum diameter≥8 cm(P<0.05),but not in UMV and UM with a maximum diameter<8 cm(P>0.05),and the further analysis showed that in UM with a maximum diameter≥8 cm,the UMV measured by 2D-US differed from postoperative measurement results(P<0.05).The differences between 3D-VOCAL measurement results and postoperative measurement results were trivial(P>0.05).There were greater intra-and interobserver agreements by 3D-VOCAL than 2D-US in UMV measurement.Conclusion 3D-VOCAL which is superior to 2D-US in preoperative UMV measurement is a simple,efficient,and reliable method,and it can provide theoretical bases for clinical follow-up.

Objective:To identify the influencing factors of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in the patients undergoing egg retrieval with general anesthesia for in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET).Methods:This was a case-control study. Medical records from IVF-ET patients undergoing egg retrieval with general anesthesia in the Center for Reproductive Medicine in our hospital from November to December 2020 were retrospectively collected, 52 patients with PONV were identified (group PONV), and 252 patients without PONV were selected as control group (group C). Univariate analysis was performed on the suspicious influencing factors, and the factors with statistically significant differences were included in the logistic regression analysis model to identify the influencing factors of PONV.Results:Compared with group C, statistically significant differences were found in the number of eggs, anesthesia time, and the proportion of PONV history and/or motion sickness history in group PONV ( P<0.05). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that a large number of eggs, long anesthesia time, and a high proportion of PONV history and/or motion sickness history were independent risk factors for PONV. Conclusions:A large number of eggs, long anesthesia time, and a high proportion of PONV history and/or motion sickness history are independent risk factors for PONV in IVF-ET patients undergoing egg retrieval with general anesthesia.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of children with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) combined with thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), and clarify the clinical outcomes and related risk factors of pediatric patients through their treatment and follow-up.Methods:This was a single-center retrospective case-control study. Children diagnosed with SLE combined with TMA between January 2017 and January 2023 at Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University, were selected as the TMA group, and SLE children without TMA were selected as the control group.According to the prognosis, children in the TMA group were further divided into the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group.The data of the children were collected, including age, gender, SLE disease activity, clinical presentations at the time of diagnosis and at the time of thrombosis, laboratory examinations, treatment strategies, prognosis, and follow-up results.The chi-square test and Z-test were used for comparison of count data.The t-test was used for comparison of metrological pairing data.The Fisher′s exact test was used to compare the differences between the 2 groups in categorical variables.The univariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of poor prognosis. Results:There were 29 cases in the TMA group, and the incidence of TMA accounted for 2.53% of SLE patients; 33 cases were in the control group.The age at diagnosis of TMA was 13 years and 5 months (ranging from 9 years, 1 month and 5 days to 17 years and 4 months).The common clinical manifestations in order of prevalence were renal involvement (28 cases, 96.55%), hematologic involvement (26 cases, 89.66%), serous effusion (17 cases, 58.62%), rash (13 cases, 44.82%), and neurologic involvement (12 cases, 41.38%).Pleurisy or pericarditis, renal involvement and neurological involvement occurred more often in the TMA group than in the control group (17 cases vs.3 cases, 28 cases vs.10 cases, 12 cases vs.3 cases), and the TMA group showed less facial rash and arthritis than the control group (13 cases vs.25 cases, 4 cases vs.17 cases), and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05).The Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index score in the TMA group [(24.14±9.42) scores] was significantly higher than that in the control group [(10.18±9.42) scores], and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.233, P<0.05).The hemoglobin level, platelet count, and complement C3 level of the children in the TMA group were significantly lower than those in the control group, whereas the double stranded DNA antibody, lactate dehydrogenase, D-dimer, urea, creatinine, ferritin level, and urine protein quantitation were significantly higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05).In the TMA group, 5 cases had decreased ADAMTS13 activity, and 5 cases had significantly increased complement C5b9.A total of 15 cases (51.72%) in the TMA group underwent renal biopsy, and 13 of them had combined renal TMA.In the TMA group, 28 patients (96.6%) received hormone therapy, 17 patients received plasma exchange, and 12 patients were treated with immunosuppressants and biologics; 19 patients (65.5%) improved, and 10 patients (34.5%) gave up the treatment due to deterioration of the disease.The urea level and peripheral blood fragmented erythrocyte rate in the good prognosis group were significantly lower than those in the poor prognosis group [(13.18±4.39) mmol/L vs.(21.16±10.14) mmol/L, t=2.975, P=0.006; 8/17 (47.06%) vs.7/7 (100%), χ2=5.929, P=0.015].The univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the fragmented erythrocyte, ADAMTS13 activity and urea were the independent risk factors for poor prognosis (all P<0.05). Conclusions:SLE patients with moderate-to-severe disease activity, especially children with hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and renal dysfunction as prominent manifestations, should be alert to the risk of TMA.Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(HF-rTMS)of different intensities on the recovery of upper limb motor dysfunction in patients during the early recovery stage of cerebral infarction. Method:Sixty patients with cerebral infarction at early recovery stage were randomly divided into the HF-rT-MS 80％RMT group,the HF-rTMS 100％RMT group and the sham stimulation group,with 20 patients in each group.All three groups were also given basic treatment(medication and routine rehabilitation training).Be-fore and after 4 weeks treatment,the Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper extremity(FMA-UE)and Modified Barth-el Index(MBI),the latency of motor evoked potential(MEP).central motor conduction time(CMCT)and blood flow velocity of the ipsilateral middle cerebral artery(MCA)were recorded. Result:Before treatment,there were no significant differences in FMA-UE score,MBI score,MEP latency,CMCT and the blood flow velocity of MCA among the three groups(P＞0.05).After four weeks of treatment,the above indicators of the three groups were significantly higher than those before treatment(P＜0.05).More-over,the improvement of the indicators in the 80％RMT group and 100％RMT group were significantly higher than those in the sham stimulation group(P＜0.05).Except for MBI score,the improvement in all indicators in the 100％RMT group were the most significant(P＜0.05). Conclusion:HF-rTMS can improve upper limb function and activity of daily living during the early recovery stage of cerebral infarction.Compared with 80％RMT,100％RMT HF-rTMS has more advantages in improv-ing function,motor nerve excitability and cerebral blood flow.
