Objective To establish a mice model of atopic dermatitis with acute itching and investigate the antipruritic effect and its mechanism of Xiaofeng Zhiyang granules(XFZYG).Methods A mice model of atopic dermatitis was prepared by induction method.Mice were sensitized by calcipotriol and ovalbumin(OVA)applying to the right ear daily for 10 days,and then stimulated by OVA injected intradermally into the right cheek to resulting in acute itching.These mice were divided into 5 groups:blank control group,model group,low dose(7.2 g/kg)and high dose(14.4 g/kg)of XFZYG,and positive control group(montelukast 5 mg/kg).Drugs were administered by gavage at 12 h and 30 min before stimulation.The leukotriene levels in the serum of the mice were measured by Elisa and the basophil ratio and activation status in the blood were measured by flow cytometry.Results The mean number of scratches in the model group was 56 between 30 min and 60 min after stimulation,while the mean number of scratches in the low and high dose of XFZYG groups were 42 and 23 respectively,which were significantly lower than those in the model group(P<0.05).The serum leukotriene levels and the proportion of basophils in the low and high dose of XFZYG groups were significantly lower than those in the model group(P<0.05).Conclusion XFZYG had certain therapeutic effect on acute itching of atopic dermatitis in mice,and the mechanism of its action was related to the reduction of leukotriene level and basophil ratio in serum of mice with atopic dermatitis.

To evaluate the application value of metal clip combined with suture and rubber coil as a simple traction device in endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for intestinal mucosal lesions, a total of 56 patients with early colonic cancer and precancerous lesions who received ESD in Jiangyin People's Hospital from January 2021 to July 2022 were randomly divided into the control group ( n=28, conventional ESD) and the traction group ( n= 28, suture and rubber coil as a simple traction device). The total time of ESD, mucosal dissection time, number of submucosal injections, complete resection rate and complications were compared between the two groups. The operation time of the traction group was shorter than that of the control group (74.64±33.25 min VS 117.18±35.75 min, t=4.61, P<0.001). The desection time of mucosa in the traction group was shorter than that in the control group (51.61±24.87 min VS 99.11±32.73 min, t=6.11, P<0.001). The number of submucosal injection in the traction group was less than that of the control group with significant difference (1.68±1.16 VS 4.96±1.41, t=9.57, P<0.001). There was no significant differences in operation area, complete resection rate or complication between the two groups ( P>0.05). The traction assistance technology of metal clip combined with suture and rubber coil can reduce the technical difficulty of colonic ESD and shorten the operation time.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture combined with antihypertensive drugs in the treatment of essential hypertension through meta-analysis.Methods:RCTs about acupuncture combined with antihypertensive drugs in the treatment of essential hypertension were retrieved from CNKI, VIP, WANFANG, CBM, PubMed, Embase and Web of Science from the establishment of the databases to January 28, 2022. The risk and quality of literature publication bias were evaluated according to Cochrane 5.1.0 System Evaluation Manual, and relevant data were extracted. RevMan 5.4 software was used for meta-analysis.Results:A total of 36 RCTs involving 2 905 patients were included. Meta-analysis results showed that compared with antihypertensive drugs, acupuncture alone demonstrated advantages in reducing systolic blood pressure [ SMD=-0.70 (-1.05, -0.36), P<0.01], diastolic blood pressure [ SMD=-0.69(-1.06, -0.32), P<0.01], antihypertensive efficacy [ RR=1.11 (1.04, 1.19), P<0.01], symptomes efficacy [ RR=1.21 (1.11, 1.31), P<0.01] and comprehensive efficacy [ RR=1.35 (1.16, 1.57), P<0.01], without serious adverse reactions. Conclusion:Acupuncture alone has good clinical efficacy and safety in the treatment of essential hypertension, compared with antihypertensive drugs alone. However, researches with large samples and high quality are still needed to support the conclusion.

Objective:To explore the correlation between protein energy wasting(PEW)and frailty in elderly patients on maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)and influencing factors of frailty.Methods:Clinical data of patients over 60 who had received regular hemodialysis treatment at Beijing Huairou Hospital between September to December 2021 were collected.According to Fried's evaluation criteria, patients were divided into a frailty group and a non-frailty group, and differences between the two groups were compared.Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to assess the correlation between protein energy wasting and frailty.Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of frailty in elderly patients on MHD.Results:A total of 81 MHD patients enrolled in this study, with 36 in the frailty group.The frailty group was older, had a higher proportion of patients with PEW, and underwent more months of dialysis, with a higher proportion of patients with diabetic nephropathy as the primary disease, having high levels of C-reactive protein(CRP), and having low KT/V, hemoglobin, albumin, body mass index(BMI), mid-arm circumference(MAC)and mid-arm muscle circumference(MAMC), and the differences with the control group were statistically significant(all P<0.05). The Fried frailty phenotype was positively correlated with age( r=0.021, P=0.047), but negatively associated with HGB( r=-0.329, P=0.003), albumin( r=0.021, P=0.047), BMI( r=0.021, P=0.047), TSF( r=-0.274, P=0.013), MAC( r=-0.554, P<0.001)and MAMC( r=-0.293, P=0.008). A Logistic regression equation was constructed using frailty as the dependent variable.The results showed that age, months of dialysis, KT/V, serum albumin and CRP were independent factors influencing the development of frailty in elderly patients with MHD. Conclusions:PEW and frailty coexist and interact with each other in elderly patients with MHD.Clinicians should place emphasis on the assessment of frailty and protein energy wasting in elderly dialysis patients and achieve early detection and intervention to avoid adverse clinical outcomes.

Objective:To compare the clinicopathological differences between elderly and non-elderly patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy(IMN).Methods:Patients diagnosed with IMN via renal biopsy at Beijing Huairou Hospital, Beijing Changping Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2017 to August 2021 were retrospectively enrolled.They were classified into the elderly group(≥65 years)and the non-elderly group(<65 years), and the clinicopathological differences between the two groups were compared.Results:A total of 207 IMN patients were included in the study, with a male to female ratio of 1.7∶1.0.There were 56 patients in the elderly group, aged(68.2±3.1)years, and 151 patients in the non-elderly group, aged(48.2±6.2)years.Compared with the non-elderly group, the elderly group had a longer time from onset to renal biopsy and a higher proportion of patients with renal insufficiency and hypertension( P<0.05). The elderly group had a lower eGFR, lower serum albumin, higher serum cholesterol, and higher low-density lipoprotein than the non-elderly group( P<0.05). The proportions of patients with glomerulosclerosis, renal tubular atrophy, and interstitial fibrosis in the elderly group were higher than in the non-elderly group( P<0.05). The positive rates of glomerular PLA2R antigen staining in the two groups were 90.6%(29/32)and 91.0%(111/122), respectively, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups.IgG4 deposition represented the most common IgG subtype, with 93.8%(30/32)in the elderly group and 94.3%(115/122)in the non-elderly group.There was no statistical significance between the two groups( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with non-elderly IMN patients, a higher proportion of elderly IMN patients has renal insufficiency, hypertension and chronic renal pathology.The glomerular deposition of pathogenic antigens in elderly IMN patients was similar to that in non-elderly IMN patients, suggesting no difference in pathogenesis between the two groups.The clinicopathological differences between the two groups may be related to age and complications.
