ObjectiveTo explore the influence of electroacupuncture combined with point bloodletting and cupping for facial nerve function recovery in acute stage of idiopathic facial palsy (IFP). MethodsEighty patients with IFP in the acute stage were randomly divided into 40 cases each in the treatment group and the control group. In the control group, oral prednisone acetate tablets were administered during the acute stage when the disease duration was less than 10 days; and electroacupuncture and flash cupping were provided during the recovery stage when the disease duration was more than 10 days, five times a week. For treatment group in acute stage, the stellate ganglion, vagus nerve stimulation point in the auricular cavity, Yifeng (TE 17) and Tinghui (GB 2) were needled on the affected side on the basis of the treatment of control group, with Yifeng and Tinghui connecting to electroacupuncture apparatus, once a day; point bloodletting and then cupping in Yifeng 2 times a week; in recovery stage, the treatment was the same as that of the control group. Both groups were treated until the 45th day from onset. The primary outcome was the Toronto facial grading system (SFGS), and the secondary outcomes included house-brackmann (H-B) grade, facial disability index (FDI) score, and number of H-B grade-Ⅰ cases. Adverse events were recorded in both groups. ResultsThe SFGS scores of the patients in both groups were higher on the 10th, 30th and 45th days after onset of disease compared with those before the treatment (P<0.05); the H-B grade was lower on the 30th and 45th days after the onset of the disease compared with those before the treatment (P<0.05); and the facial disability index physical function (FDIP) and facial disability index social function (FDIS) scores were higher on the 30th and 45th days after onset of disease (P<0.05). SFGS scores of patients in the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group on the 30th and 45th days after onset (P<0.05); H-B grade was significantly lower than that of the control group on the 30th and 45th days after onset (P<0.05); and FDIP scores on the 45th day after onset, and FDIS scores on the 30th and 45th days after onset were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). At the end of treatment, 77.50% (31 cases) achieved H-B grade-Ⅰ in the treatment group, which was more than 55.00% (22 cases) in the control group (P<0.05). No adverse events occurred in either group. ConclusionElectroacupuncture combined with point bloodletting and cupping for IFP in acute stage can improve the recovery degree of facial nerve function, improve effectiveness, and show a high degree of safety.

Organoids are three-dimensional (3D) biological structures constructed in vitro by stem cells, which partially mimic the function of real organs. Brain organoids are an extremely important branch of organoid research. This technology can differentiate pluripotent stem cells into the required cell types in a 3D culture environment, and self-assemble into structural bodies, but it is currently unable to fully replicate the structural and physiological features of the real human brain. The maturity of brain organoids may form consciousness, which poses ethical issues such as determining moral status and informed consent in brain organoids research. This paper elaborated on the research progress and future development direction of brain organoids, and proposed multidimensional governance strategies for ethical issues faced in brain organoids research from the perspectives of ethical principles, ensuring public informed consent, and legal supervision. By exploring the above issues, reference will be provided for formulating ethical principles to guide the research and application of brain organoids in the future.

Objective:To investigate the "V" -shaped anatomical approach in the prevention of bile duct injury during laparoscopic complex cholecystectomy and its clinical application value.Methods:The patients with complex gallbladder from June 2020 to June 2021 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Baotou Medical College, Inner Mongolia University of Science and Technology were selected as the research objects, and they were randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 60 cases in each group. All patients underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The observation group underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy through the triangle "V" shape of the gallbladder, and the control group did not use the "V" shape anatomy. The operation status, complications and postoperative recovery of the two groups of patients were compared.The measurement data of normal distribution were expressed by ( Mean± SD), and t test was used for comparison between groups, and chi-square test was used for comparison between groups of count data. Results:The conversion rate to laparotomy, intraoperative bleeding and operation time of observation group were 3.33%, (97.31±13.27) mL, (65.27±13.82) min, which were significantly lower than those in the control group[8.33%, (111.27±25.18) mL, (81.35±12.12) min], the differences between the two groups were statistically significant( P<0.05). The incidence of biliary injury, total incidence of complications of the observation group were 0, 8.33%, which were significantly lower than those in the control group(6.67%, 28.33%), the differences between the two groups were statistically significant( P<0.05). The postoperative exhaust time, drainage tube retention time, hospitalization cost and hospitalization time of the observation group were (9.89±3.58) h, (32.58±5.17) h, (3 142.92±137.93) yuan, (4.73±1.42) d, and significantly lower than those in the control group [(11.65±2.45) h, (46.18±6.49) h, (3 424.29±156.34) yuan, (5.38±1.25) d], the differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:For laparoscopic complex cholecystectomy, the use of the triangular "V" -shaped gallbladder anatomical approach is more conducive to the operation, can reduce the patient's operation time and intraoperative blood loss, reduce the rate of intraoperative conversion to laparotomy, and reduce biliary tract injury and bile leakage. Such as the incidence of complications, prompting patients to recover as soon as possible, it is worthy of clinical application and promotion.
