AIM: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Mongolian medicine Mingmu-11 Pills combined with conbercept in the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration(wARMD).METHODS: Prospective study. All cases in this study were wARMD patients(72 cases, 72 eyes)admitted to the Ophthalmology Department of Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia University from November 2020 to December 2021. They were randomly divided into a combined treatment group and a control group, each with 36 eyes, and the control group received intravitreal injection of conbercept 0.05 mL for 3 consecutive months. The combined treatment group was given Mingmu-11 Pills twice a day after surgery, with 3 wk as a course of treatment, a total of 3 courses, and the control group was not given Mongolian medicine treatment. The best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), changes in central macular thickness(CMT)in the macular area, and changes in N1, P1 wave amplitude density and latency were observed after treatment in both groups.RESULTS:The BCVA(letter number)of the two groups were improved(P<0.05), and the CMT were decreased(P<0.05). The improvement of BCVA(letter number)in the combined treatment group was better than that in the control group at 3 mo(17.42±3.29 vs 14.61±3.14, P<0.001)and 5 mo(19.75±3.25 vs 16.81±2.77, P<0.001)after treatment; compared with the control group, CMT of the combined treatment group was thinner than that of the control group at 3 mo(304.58±53.34 vs 351.94±52.99 μm, P<0.001)and 5 mo(274.17±62.26 vs 321.78±63.22 μm, P<0.05)after treatment. The amplitude density of N1 and P1 wave in mfERG in both groups at 3 mo after treatment was higher than that before treatment(P<0.05), and r1-r3 latency of P1 wave was shorter than that before treatment(P<0.05), with no differences in the r1-r3 latency of N1 wave(P>0.05). In addition, the amplitude density of N1 and P1 wave in the combined treatment group was higher than that in the control group at 3 mo after treatment(P<0.05), the latency of P1 wave in the treatment group was significantly shorter than that in the control group(P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the latency of N1 wave between the two groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Mingmu-11 Pills combined with intravitreal injection of conbercept in the treatment of wARMD has obvious efficacy in improving vision and reducing macular edema.

Objective:To compare the effects of invisible orthodontic appliances without brackets and labial fixed orthodontic appliances on periodontal status and root resorption in orthodontic patients.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 102 orthodontic patients who visited the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from January 2019 to October 2022. According to different treatment methods, they were divided into group A ( n=52) and group B ( n=50). Group A was treated with invisible orthodontic appliances without brackets, while group B was treated with labial fixed orthodontic appliances. We compared two groups of treatment completion time, root resorption, and periodontal health indicators before and after treatment, including plaque index (PLI), gingival index (GI), gingival sulcus bleeding index (SBI), and levels of inflammatory factors in gingival crevicular fluid, including interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1). Results:The completion time of treatment in the Group A was longer than that in the group B [(34.62±4.28)months vs (28.93±3.11)months] ( P<0.01). After treatment, the incidence of root resorption in the group A was 50.96%, while in the group B it was 78.00%. The group A was significantly lower than the group B ( P<0.05), with no root resorption greater than 3 mm in the group A and 0.50% in the group B. After treatment, the levels of PLI, GI, SBI, and IL-1β and sICAM-1 in gingival crevicular fluid increased in both groups, with the group A being lower than group B [(1.26±0.39)points vs (1.73±0.54)points, (1.33±0.25)points vs (2.06±0.46)points, (1.73±0.40)points vs (2.48±0.50)points, (173.74±25.81)ng/ml vs (196.33±31.52)ng/ml, (42.28±5.16)μg/L vs (56.59±7.38)μg/L] (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Although invisible orthodontic appliances without brackets cannot shorten the completion time of treatment, they have advantages in inhibiting root resorption, improving periodontal health, and reducing inflammatory reactions. Clinically, appropriate appliances can be selected based on the specific situation of patients.

Objective:To gain a deeper understanding of the cognitive differences between lactating women and obstetric nurses regarding their breastfeeding counselling abilities.Methods:This study was a descriptive phenomenology qualitative study. From October 2021 to June 2022, purposive sampling was used to select 11 lactating women who received breastfeeding counselling and 13 obstetric nurses who provided breastfeeding counselling services in Department of Obstetrics at Peking Union Medical College Hospital for semi-structured interviews. Giorgi analysis method was used to extract and analyze data.Results:The cognitive differences between lactating women and obstetric nurses regarding breastfeeding counselling abilities were mainly manifested in four aspects, namely breastfeeding knowledge and skills, counselling practice ability, improving counselling ability, and personality traits.Conclusions:Lactating women and obstetric nurses have cognitive differences in breastfeeding counselling abilities. Obstetric nurses should improve their breastfeeding counselling skills based on the needs of lactating women and provide personalized breastfeeding counselling services.

Objective To investigate the mechanism underlying the suppressive effect of Porphyromonas gingivalis(P.gingivalis)on ferroptosis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC).Methods ESCC cells infected with P.gingivalis and uninfected control cells were treated with ferroptosis inducer RSL3 followed by measurements of cell viability,malondialde-hyde(MDA),reactive oxygen species(ROS),and the expression of glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4).Moreover,the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)and its target genes were detected by qPT-PCR,Western blotting or immunohistochem-istry in ESCC tissue and cells under the condition of P.gingivalis infection.The effect of P.gingivalis infection combined with the HIF-1α inhibitors LW6 and RSL3 on ferroptosis in ESCC was detected in vitro and in vivo.Results P.gingivalis infection of the ESCC cells resulted in an increase of the cell viability(P＜0.05),decreased levels of intracellular ROS(P＜0.05)and MDA(P＜0.05)and increased the expression of GPX4 compared with RSL3 treatment alone.In ESCC tissues,the increased a-bundance of P.gingivalis was correlated with upregulation of HIF-1α.Furthermore,P.gingivalis infection induced upregula-tion of HIF-1α and its target genes.LW6 promoted ferroptosis via inhibiting the HIF-1α upregulation induced by P.gingivalis infection in vitro and in vivo.Conclusion HIF-1α renders resistance to ferroptosis in P.gingivalis infected ESCC.Combination of HIF-1α inhibitory agents and ferroptosis inducing agents might be a novel therapeutic strategy in ESCC care.

Viral infectious diseases are a class of major diseases that seriously affect human life and health, and the causes of emerging infectious diseases are mostly viral pathogens. Rapid and accurate viral pathogen tests are of great significance for the clinical diagnosis and control of such infectious diseases. As an indispensable auxiliary diagnostic method, viral nucleic acid tests have the advantages of high sensitivity and specificity, etc., and have become an important method to identify the cause, determine the treatment schedule, and evaluate the treatment effect and prognosis. A series of method based on polymerase chain reaction, isothermal amplification technology or genome sequencing, respectively, have been successfully applied to viral nucleic acid detection. In this review, we will discuss the tests and applications of viral nucleic acid detection commonly used in clinical practice, as well as the issues that need attention in the interpretation of the result, to help the accurate diagnosis and treatment of viral infectious diseases.
