This article systematically reviews the characteristics and trends of the writing, editing, publication and promotion of physiology textbooks in China from the late 19th century to the present, focusing on the introduction, development and innovation of Chinese physiology textbooks. The development of physiology textbooks in China is divided into four main stages: the introduction and initial development of physiology textbooks from the late 19th century to 1925; the localization and diversification of textbooks from 1926 to 1949, after the establishment of the Chinese Physiological Society; the exploratory phase of textbook construction after the founding of the People's Republic of China from 1949 to 1976; the formation and innovation of the textbook development process from 1977 to the present, following the restoration of the college entrance examination. For each phase, the article not only records the historical development of physiology textbooks, but also analyzes the evolution of their content, writing styles and the interaction with the social and political contexts. The article summarizes the characteristics and experiences of all these four phases. Special attention is given to the comprehensive statistical analysis of physiology textbooks published since the restoration of the college entrance examination and Economic Reform and Opening-up in 1977, revealing the changes in the number, publication trends and academic features of textbooks during this period. Finally, the article presets the future development of physiology textbooks in China, proposing that textbook writing should integrate aspects such as ideological and political education, medical humanities, basic and clinical medicine, health education, scientific research and international exchange and collaboration. The article also advocates for the application of new technologies and methods, such as artificial intelligence, virtual teaching models and knowledge graphs, to support "personalized learning". This research provides a systematic reference for the study of the history of medical education and offers theoretical support for the future innovation of physiology textbook in China.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect and safety of low-dose of apatinib and S-1 combined with Jianpi Bushen Jiedu Decoction (JBJD) in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who have failed second or above lines treatment, in order to provide more treatment option for mCRC patients by integrated medicine. METHODS: Thirteen patients were selected from a single-arm, open-label clinical study from April 2019 to September 2020. The patients were treated with low-dose apatinib (250 mg, once a day) and S-1 (20 mg, twice a day) combined with JBJD for at least one cycle and were followed up to August 2021. The primary endpoint was disease progression-free survival (PFS). Disease control rate (DCR), objective response rate (ORR), and overall survival (OS) of patients were observed as the secondary endpoints. Adverse events were recorded as well. RESULTS: The average age of the 13 patients was 56.5 ±13.0 years and 76.9% were male. The median PFS and median OS were 4.6 and 8.3 months, respectively. The ORR was 7.7% (1/13) while the DCR was 61.5% (8/13). The common adverse events were hypertension, proteinuria, elevated transaminase, and thrombocytopenia. One patient experienced thrombocytopenia of grade 3. CONCLUSIONS Patients with mCRC after failure of the second or above lines of treatment may potentially benefit from the treatment of low-dose apatinib and S-1 combined with JBJD because of its similar effect as the standard dose of target therapy and relatively better safety.

Objective: To detect the SMO mutations in odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) and to explore the mechanism behind. Methods: Patients with OKC who received treatment in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, School and Hospital of Stomatology,Peking University, from September 2012 to June 2017 were enrolled. OKC samples from 10 patients diagnosed as naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS)-related OKC (4 females and 6 males) and 20 patients diagnosed as sporadic OKC (7 females and 13 males) were collected. Genomic DNAs were extracted from fibrous capsules and epithelial lining respectively. SMO mutations were detected and analyzed by Sanger sequencing. Results: Three SMO mutations were found in one NBCCS-associated OKC who carrying c.2081C>G (p.P694R) mutation) and two sporadic OKC who carrying c.907C>T (p.L303F) mutation and c.1247_1248delinsAA (p.G416E), respectively), among which the first two mutations were novel mutations that had not been reported before. Besides, two mutations in sporadic OKC were not paired with PTCH1 mutations. Conclusions: In addition to PTCH1 gene mutations, SMO gene mutations also exist in OKC which might be related to the development of OKC.

Objective: To explore the diagnostic value and model of serum Golgi protein 73 (GP73) in patients with hepatitis C cirrhosis. Methods: 271 cases with chronic hepatitis C virus infection who were treated in the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from January 2010 to December 2017 were retrospectively collected as the research objects, including 126 cases with hepatitis and 145 cases with liver cirrhosis. Serum GP73 and liver stiffness measurement (LSM) based on transient elastography test were performed in all patients. Simultaneously, blood routine, liver function, coagulation function and other related indicators were collected. GP73 diagnostic efficiency for liver cirrhosis was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). GP73 diagnostic value was clarified after comparison with aspartate aminotransferase/platelet ratio index (APRI), FIB-4 index (FIB-4) and LSM. Compensated hepatitis C virus-related cirrhosis diagnostic model based on serological index was established by logistic regression analysis. Results: The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of GP73, LSM, FIB-4 and APRI in the diagnosis of compensated hepatitis C virus-related cirrhosis were 0.923, 0.839, 0.836 and 0.800 respectively, and GP73 had the best diagnostic efficiency (P <0.001). LSM and GP73 combined use had improved the diagnostic sensitivity of cirrhosis to 97.24%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that GP73, age, and platelets were independent predictors of cirrhosis.Compensated hepatitis C virus-related cirrhosis diagnostic model (GAP) was established based on the result: LogitP=1/[1+exp(6.145+0.013×platelet-0.059×age-0.059×GP73)].AUC model for diagnosing compensated liver cirrhosis was 0.944, and the optimal cut-off value was 0.56, with sensitivity and specificity of 84.03% and 92.06%, respectively, and the diagnostic efficiency of this model was better than that of APRI, FIB-4, LSM and GP73 alone (P<0.05). Conclusion: GP73 is a reliable serum biomarker for the diagnosis of compensated hepatitis C virus-related cirrhosis. The GAP diagnostic model based on GP73, platelet count, and age can further improve the diagnostic efficiency and help to diagnose patients with compensated hepatitis C virus-related cirrhosis.

A spectrum-activity relationship is established with high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) fingerprints and the in vitro antioxidant activity to improve the quality evaluation system of Aralia taibaiensis. The HPLC profiles of 12 batches of samples were collected, and the similarity evaluation, heat map analysis and principal component analysis were conducted for the chemometric study of the fingerprint data. Combined with grey correlation analysis, the contributions of the common peaks in the fingerprints to the antioxidant activity were clarified, and the important peaks reflecting the efficacy were identified. The results showed that 17 common peaks were found in 12 batches of A. taibaiensis samples, and 6 of them were identified as saponins. Similarity evaluation, heat map analysis and principal component analysis roughly classified the A. taibaiensis herbs into two categories, i.e.,(1) S1-S10, S12 and(2) S11. Twelve batches of samples showed different antioxidant activities in a dose-dependent manner. In particular, S9 had the strongest antioxidant activity, while S11 was the weakest in antioxidant capacity, which was basically consistent with the overall score results. The results of grey correlation analysis demonstrated that the 17 common peaks scavenged DPPH radicals in the following order: X_3>X_(17)>X_4>X_8>X_7>X_(13)>X_2>X_6>X_(11)>X_(10)>X_(16)>X_(12)>X_9>X_5>X_(14)>X_1>X_(15), and scavenged ABTS radicals in the order of X_4>X_3>X_7>X_8>X_2>X_(17)>X_(13)>X_6>X_(16)>X_(11)>X_5>X_(12)>X_(10)>X_9>X_(14)>X_1>X_(15). Among them, X_3, X_4, X_7(araloside C), X_8 and X_(17) were the important peaks reflecting the efficacy of A. taibaiensis, which were basically consistent with those contained in the principal component 1. In this study, the correlation between the HPLC fingerprints of 12 batches of A. taibaiensis and its antioxidant activity provides a reference for the Q-marker screening and quality control of A. taibaiensis.

Objective:To apply WeChat platform for discharged patients after gynecological laparoscopic surgery. Methods:From October, 2018 to February, 2019, 84 patients accepted gynecological laparoscopic surgery were followed up with telephone (control group, n = 42) or WeChat (WeChat group, n = 42) from discharge to three to four weeks after surgery. They were assessed with Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), Affectometer 2 on the day of discharge and the last day of follow-up. Results:Seven cases lost in the control group. The comprehensive satisfaction and satisfaction to recovery were better in WeChat group than in the control group (χ² > 4.614, P < 0.05). The scores of SAS, SDS and Affectometer 2 improved in WeChat group (|t| > 16.255, P < 0.001), and were better than those in the control group (|t| > 10.293, P < 0.001). There were no significant improvement in the control group (|t| < 1.950, P > 0.05). Conclusion:Follow-up based on WeChat platform is effective on psychological recovery and satisfaction after gynecological laparoscopic surgery.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of induction therapy in 3+7 protocol and 3+10 protocol in children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Methods Two protocols were carried out in our hospital during January 2010 to January 2015, namely 3+7 protocol(AML-06,A group) and 3+10 protocol (modified AML protocol, B group). A total of 56 cases aged from 1 year-old to 13 year-old were enrolled in A group with male to female ratio at 31:25. Five of them were classified as FAB M1, 25 as M2, 11 as M4, 10 as M5, 2 as M6 and 3 as M7. Another 44 cases aged from 1 year to 12 years were enrolled in B group with a male to female ratio at 26:18, and 17 cases were classified as FAB M2, 14 as M4, 9 as M5, 2 as M6, and 2 as M7. Efficacy and adverse events were compared between the two groups. Results The complete remission rate (CR) of B group was 70.4%, while CR in A group was 48.2%. Considering the CR, 3+10 protocol showed higher efficacy than 3+7 protocol (P< 0.05). The major adverse event was bone marrow suppression. Treatment-related mortality (TRD) in A group was 1.8%, which was lower than that in B group (2.3%). The overall survival rate in A group was 75.0%, which was lower than that in B group (86.4%, P< 0.05). Conclusions The induction therapy of 3+10 protocol and 3+7 protocol showed effectiveness for AML treatment. The 3+10 protocol showed a higher CR than 3+7 protocol with no TRD increase, indicating that the 3+10 protocol should be recommended for AML treatment in children.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Epidemiological data of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) in the general population of China are lacking. We report on the prevalence of lacunes, white matter hyperintensity (WMH), and cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) in a community-based sample in China and compare the results with those of other studies. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional analysis of the population-based Shunyi Study in China. A total of 1,211 stroke-free participants (mean age, 55.6±9.3 years; 37.4% men) with available 3 Tesla (3T) magnetic resonance images were included in this analysis. Demographic information and risk factor data were assessed. The overall and age-specific prevalence of lacunes, WMH, and CMBs was evaluated. Associations between cardiovascular risk factors and the presence of these lesions were analyzed by multiple logistic regression. RESULTS: Our study showed a prevalence of 14.5% for lacunes, 72.1% for periventricular hyperintensity (PVH), 65.4% for deep white matter hyperintensity (DWMH), and 10.6% for CMBs. When compared with other community-based samples, individuals in the same age group showed a higher burden of lacunes and a relatively lower prevalence of CMBs. Advanced age was independently associated with the prevalence of these CSVD markers, while the presence of hypertension increased the risk of lacunes, PVH/DWMH, and CMBs in deep or infratentorial locations. CONCLUSIONS: A higher burden of lacunes but a relatively lower prevalence of CMBs was observed in this Chinese population. This notable result highlights the challenge of CSVD prevention in China. Chinese have a risk factor profile for CSVD similar to those in other populations.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of intensive lifestyle intervention on rural residents with metabolic syndrome (MS) . Methods A total of 253 patients with MS selected from cross-sectional survey were divided into intensive lifestyle intervention and conventional management group incomplete randomly. Aimed to control weight, patients in the intervention group were treated with dietary control and exercise guidance. Besides, their compliances were assessed. In conventional management group, patients were disposed according to chronic disease management specification. Anthropometric measurements and biochemical markers detection were carried out in both groups at baseline and at the end of 6 months. Results These main anthropometric measurements and biochemical markers have no significant difference between the intervention group and conventional management group at the baseline (P>0.05) . After 6 months intensive lifestyle modification, the prevalence of MS did not significantly differ between the two groups: it was 67.14% in the intervention group and 60.95% in the conventional management group (P>0.05) .In the intervention group, the body weight, BMI and the waist circumference were decreased by 3.11 kg, 1.50 kg/m2, 4.29 cm, respectively, and 1.23 kg, 0.47 kg/m2, 1.22 cm in the conventional management group. The changes were significantly larger in the intervention group than in the conventional management group (P<0.01) .Uric acid, triglyceride were decreased by 14.30 μmol/L, 0.01 mmol/L, respectively, in the intervention group and in the conventional management group they were increased by 18.17 μmol/L and 0.41 mmol/L conversely. While the high density lipoprotein cholesterol was increased by 0.02 mmol/L, it was decreased by 0.10 mmol/L in the conventional management group (P<0.01) . Body weight and BMI decreased by 3.93kg and 1.40 kg/m2 in the high compliance group, compared to low compliance group, there was statistically difference with regard to this change between the two groups (P<0.05) . While the body fat% was decreased by 2.27%, and it was increased by 1.01% in the conventional management group (P<0.05) . Conclusion For rural residents, the beneficial effects of intensive lifestyle intervention are improving metabolic risk factors. The compliance is the main factor of the effects of intervention.
