To explore the effect of Macleaya cordata extract(MCE)on growth performance and serum biochemistry of Sichuan White Geese,and to analyze its mechanism of action by network pharmacology and molecular docking technology combined with animal experiments verification.A total of 90 1-day-old healthy goslings were randomly divided into 5 groups with 18 goslings per group after 5 d of adaptive feeding.The control group(CON)was fed with basal diet,the antibiotic group(CTC)was supplemented with 450 mg/kg chlortetracycline premix,and the low MCE group(MCEL),medium MCE group(MCEM)and high MCE group(MCEH)were supple-mented with 200,300 and 400 mg/kg MCE,respectively.The experimental period was 21 d.On the basis of the above experiments,Network pharmacology and molecular docking technology were used to predict the core targets and signaling pathways of MCE to promote geese growth from the levels of antioxidant,immune and apoptosis,and the expression levels of the core target genes were detected by Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.The results showed that compared with the CON group,MCE supplementation could increase the average daily weight gain,decrease the ratio of feed to gain,significantly increase the contents of serum GH,T3,T4,TP and ALB(P<0.05),and significantly decrease the contents of serum AST and TG(P<0.05).Network pharmacology analysis predicted 2 active ingredient and 237 active ingredient targets,and concluded that the mechanism of MCE promoting the growth of Sichuan White Geese may be related to the role of 5 key targets such as SRC,HSP90AA1,CASP3,ESR1 and MAPK14,and the action of MAPK,apop-tosis and other signaling pathways.Molecular docking results showed that the active ingredients of sanguinarine and chelerythrine in MCE could act through MAPK14.The validation results of core targets showed that MCE could significantly reduce the mRNA expression levels of CytC,CASP2,CASP3 and CASP9 in spleen(P<0.05)and significantly increase the mRNA expression levels of Mcl-1(P<0.05).These results indicated that MCE could promote the growth performance of Si-chuan White Geese by regulating apoptosis,promoting the secretion of serum growth-related hor-mones and improving biochemical indicators.

Objective:
To investigate the factors affecting the depressive symptoms among patients with colorectal cancer in Chengdu City, so as to provide insights into mental health improvement among colorectal cancer patients.
Methods:
Patients with colorectal cancer were enrolled from three hospitals in Chengdu City using the convenient sampling method. The basic information, life styles and cancer diagnosis and therapy were collected, and the depressive symptoms were evaluated using the Zung Self-Rating Depression Scale ( SDS ). In addition, factors affecting the depressive symptoms were identified using the multivariable logistic regression analysis.
Results:
A total of 384 patients with colorectal cancer were enrolled, including 247 men ( 64.32% ), and the subjects had a mean age of ( 57.47±11.39 ) years and a mean SDS score of 37.73±9.15. The detection rate of depressive symptoms was 15.36%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that colorectal cancer patients with a history of radiotherapy had a high risk of developing depressive symptoms ( OR=0.468, 95%CI: 0.245-0.895 ), while patients with alcohol consumption ( OR=0.407, 95%CI: 0.172-0.963 ) and drinking tea ( OR=0.470, 95%CI: 0.244-0.904 ) had a low risk of developing depressive symptoms.
Conclusions
The detection of depressive symptoms is 15.36% among patients with colorectal cancer in Chengdu City, and a history of radiotherapy, alcohol consumption and drinking tea affect the development of depressive symptoms among patients with colorectal cancer.

Objective To discuss the key points of anesthesia for patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) surgery. Methods We retrospectively collected and analyzed the data of 70 patients who underwent TAVI in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, West China Hospital from March 2014 to October 2015. There were 39 males and 31 females with an average age of 73.7±4.5 years. The perioperative preparation and anesthesia points of TAVI were summarized. Results All of the 70 included patients were aged and at high risk severe comorbidities such as ischemic heart disease and stroke. The aortic stenosis and regurgitation occurred in 39 and 31 patients respectively. No patients died during the surgery. The total success rate was 95.7%. Conclusion TAVI is a complex procedure for high risk patients and need more attention during anesthesia. The successful conduction of the procedure requires the whole team to prepare carefully and cooperate closely.

OBJECTIVE:To provide theoretic basis for the design and synthesis of novel high-activity biaryl aminothiazineβ-amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) inhibitor,the research and development of new AD therapy drugs. METHODS:Totally 41 molecules of biaryl aminothiazine BACE1 inhibitors were selected. By SYBYL-X 2.0 software package, CoMFA and CoMSIA method were used to construct 3D-QSAR model of derivatized compounds. Surflex-dock molecular docking was applied to analyze binding mode of the compounds with BACE1. RESULTS:The q2 value of 3D-QSAR model established by CoMFA and CoMSIA method were all higher than 0.5,indicating good predictability. The established three dimensional contour plots could manifest the effect of substituents at different sites on activity of compounds. Surflex-dock analysis showed that biaryl aminothiazine and amino acid residues as ASP80, ASP276 and TYR246 in BACE1 had a key effect on hydrogen bonds. CONCLUSIONS:3D-QSAR model established on the basis of biaryl aminothiazine derivatized compounds show good predictability,which provides guidance for the structure optimization of the compound. TYR246 may be another potential active functional residue of biaryl aminothiazine inhibitor compound molecule combined with BACE1. Through 3D-QSAR analysis and molecular docking,new biaryl aminothiazine BACE1 inhibitor can be designed and synthesized so as to research and develop new drugs for AD.

Objective To compare the efficacies of several commonly-used penetrating needling methods in treating post-stroke strephenopodia. Method Eighty-three patients with post-stroke strephenopodia were randomized into four groups, a control group intervened by conventional needling method (n=20), and the rest three groups were additionally intervened by different penetrating needling methods: penetrating group 1 [Qiuxu (GB40) towards Zhaohai (KI6), n=21], penetrating group 2 [Taibai (SP3) towards Shugu (BL65), n=21], and penetrating group 3 [Jiaoxin (KI8) towards Fuyang (BL59), n=21], to compare their effects on the function of ankle and lower extremity. Result The penetrating needling methods and conventional needling method all can significantly improve the function of ankle in patients with post-stroke strephenopodia (P<0.01). The effectiveness of penetrating group 1 was more significant than that of the rest groups (P<0.01), the effectiveness of penetrating group 2 was more significant than that of penetrating group 3 and the control group (P<0.05,P<0.01), and there was no significant difference in comparing the effectiveness between penetrating group 3 and the control group (P > 0.05). The penetrating needling methods and conventional needling method all can significantly improve the motor function of lower extremity in patients with post-stroke strephenopodia (P<0.01). The effectiveness of penetrating group 1 was more significant than that of the other groups (P<0.01), the efficacies of penetrating group 2 and 3 were more significant than that of the control (P<0.01), and there was no significant difference in comparing the effectiveness between penetrating group 2 and 3 (P>0.05). Conclusion Needling from Qiuxu towards Zhaohai and from Taibai towards Shugu can produce significant effects in improving ankle function and the motor function of lower extremity in patients with post-stroke strephenopodia, while needling from Jiaoxin to Fuyang doesn’t have notable advantage compared to the other penetrating needling methods and conventional needling method.
