Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Lingnan fire needling in the treatment of plaque psoriasis.Methods A total of 60 cases of patients with plaque psoriasis admitted to Bao'an Hospital of Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from August 2021 to January 2023 were selected,and the patients were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group according to the random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.The observation group was given Lingnan fire needling for treatment,and the control group was given topical application of Calcipotriol Ointment.The course of treatment covered eight weeks continuously.After eight weeks of treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated,and the changes of Psoriasis Area and Severity Index(PASI)scores and Dermatology Life Quality Index(DLQI)scores,as well as the diameter of glomus under dermoscopy of the patients in the two groups were observed before the treatment and after 2,4,6,and 8 weeks of treatment.Changes in Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale(GAD-7)scores before treatment and after 2,4,6,and 8 weeks of treatment were compared between the two groups.Results(1)After 2,4,6 and 8 weeks of treatment,the scores of PASI,DLQI and GAD-7 of patients in the two groups were improved significantly(P<0.05),and the improvement in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group,the difference being statistically significant(P<0.05).(2)The cured and markedly rate of the observation group was 86.67%(26/30);and that of the control group was 66.67%(20/30).The efficacy of the observation group was superior to that of the control group,the difference being statistically significant(P<0.05).(3)After 2,4,6,and 8 weeks of treatment,the diameter of glomus under dermoscopy of the patients in the two groups were improved significantly(P<0.05),and the improvement in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group,the difference being statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Lingnan fire needling therapy for plaque psoriasis can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of the patients,relieve the anxiety symptoms induced by skin lesions and itching,so as to improve their quality of life.

Objective To investigate effect of peripheral blood miR-21 expression on the clinicopathological features of gastric cancer before and after gastric surgery.Methods The peripheral blood was collected on the operative day and postoperative 7 d in 42 patients with primary gastric cancer surgery.The real-tine quantitative PCR was adopted to detect the relative expression of miR-21 in plasma with U6 as an internal reference gene.Results The plasma miR-21 expression level after gastric cancer operation was significantly down-regulated compared with before operation(P <0.01),the overall relative expression level was dropped by an average of 18.2 times;and it was found that the postoperative miR-21 expression in the patients with the tumor family history was up-regulated,the postoperative plasma miR-21 expression in the patients without the tumor family history was decreased by 22 times compared with before operation(P <0.05);the experimental results also fund that as the patient′s differentiation degree was changed from high to low,the lymph node metastasis rate was gradually increased,while postoperative average miR-21 expression was changed from low to high,showing the relative expression times of miR-21 were distributed in the four differentiated zones of high,middle,middle-low and low,which showed the correlation with the distribution of the lymph node metastasis rate in these four differentiation zones.Conclusion The peripheral blood MiR-21 detection has the clinical significance to early auxiliary diagnosis and the judgement of postoperative malignant degree.
