Objective To observe the pharmacokinetic effect of amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium tablets on amoxicillin in Chinese healthy subjects under fasting and high fat and high calorie diet.Methods 71 healthy subjects were given a single dose of amoxicillin potassium clavulanate tablets(0.375 g)on fasting or high fat diet,and venous blood samples were collected at different time points.The concentrations of amoxicillin in human plasma were determined by HPLC-MS/MS method,and the pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by non-atrioventricular model using PhoenixWinNonlin 8.0 software.Results The main pharmacokinetic parameters of amoxicillin potassium clavulanate tablets after fasting and high fat diet were(5 105.00±1 444.00),(4 593.00±1 327.00)ng·mL-1,and postprandial-fasting ratio 89.40％,90％confidence interval(79.55％-100.19％);t1/2 were(1.52±0.16),(1.39±0.22)h;AUC0-t were(12 969.00±1 841.00),(11 577.00±1 663.00)ng·mL-1·h,and postdietary/fasting ratio 89.20％,90％confidence interval(83.92％-94.28％);AUC0-∞ were(13 024.00±1 846.00),(11 532.00±1 545.00)ng·mL-1·h,and postprandial-fasting ratio 88.60％,90％confidence interval(83.48％-93.50％).The median Tmax(range)were 1.63(0.75,3.00)and 2.50(0.75,6.00)h,respectively,and the Tmax of postprandial medication was delayed(P＜0.01).Conclusion Compared with fasting condition,amoxicillin Tmax was significantly delayed after high fat diet,while Cmax,AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ were not significantly changed,indicating that food could delay the absorption of amoxicillin,but did not affect the degree of absorption.

In this study, we investigated the effects of Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) on pulmonary vascular remodeling and ADAM10/Notch3 pathway in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). PAH rat model was established, and male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into control group, monocrotaline (MCT) group and MCT+PNS group, with 10 rats in each group. Rats in the control group were intraperitoneally injected with equal volume of normal saline. Rats in the MCT group was injected intraperitoneally with 60 mg/kg MCT on the first day, and then with the same volume of normal saline every day. Rats in the MCT+PNS group was injected intraperitoneally with 60 mg/kg MCT on the first day, and then with 50 mg/kg PNS every day. The modeling time of each group lasted for 21 days. After the model was established, the mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) was measured by right heart catheterization technique, the right ventricular hypertrophy index (RVHI) was calculated, the microscopic morphology and changes of pulmonary vascular wall were observed by HE and Masson staining, and the expressions of ADAM10, Notch3, Hes-1, P27, PCNA, Caspase-3 proteins and mRNA in pulmonary vascular tissue of rats were detected by Western blot and qPCR. The expression and localization of Notch3 and α-SMA were detected by immunofluorescence staining. The protein expression of ADAM10 was detected by immunohistochemical staining. The results showed that compared with the control group, mPAP, RVHI, pulmonary vessels and collagen fibers in the MCT group were significantly increased, the expressions of ADAM10, Notch3, Hes-1, and PCNA protein and mRNA were significantly increased, while the expressions of P27 and Caspase-3 protein and mRNA were decreased significantly. Compared with the MCT group, mPAP and RVHI were significantly decreased, pulmonary vessels were significantly improved and collagen fibers were significantly reduced, the expressions of protein and mRNA of ADAM10, Notch3, Hes-1, and PCNA were decreased in MCT+PNS group, but the expressions of protein and mRNA of P27 and Caspase-3 were increased slightly. The results of immunofluorescence showed that Notch3 and α-SMA staining could overlap, which proved that Notch3 was expressed in smooth muscle cells. The expression of Notch3 in the MCT group was increased significantly compared with that in the control group, while PNS intervention decreased the expression of Notch3. Immunohistochemical staining showed that compared with the control group, the amount of ADAM10 in the MCT group was increased significantly, and the expression of ADAM10 in the MCT+PNS group was decreased compared with the MCT group. These results indicate that PNS can improve the PAH induced by MCT in rats by inhibiting ADAM10/Notch3 signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of health locus of control on the early rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament（ACL） reconstruction. MethodsFrom July 2019 to October 2019， a prospective cohort study of 155 ACL patients receiving reconstruction （male=124 and female=31） in our hospital was conducted. The general data questionnaire， MHLC-C， Tegner activity score， IKDC Score， Lysholm Score and Y-Balance Test were used for further analysis. The correlation between HLC and early rehabilitation after ACL reconstruction was explored by Wilcoxon signed-rank tests， correlation analysis and Logistics regression analysis. ResultsPositive correlations were found between the internality health locus of control （IHLC） and the IKDC score （r_3m=0.77， r_6m=0.70， P<0.001）， as well as the Lysholm scores （r_3m=0.68， r_6m=0.64， P<0.001） and the Tegner activity score （r_3m=0.24， r_6m=0.46， P<0.05） in 3 and 6 months after surgery， and higher IHLC score indicated a better y-balance test outcome［OR 95%CI=0.86（0.76， 0.97）， P=0.016］. Chance health locus of control （CHLC） was negatively correlated with the IKDC score （r_3m=-0.71， r_6m=-0.67， P<0.001）， the Lysholm score （r_3m=-0.49， r_6m=-0.43， P<0.001） and the Tegner activity score （r_3m=-0.22， r_6m=-0.35， P<0.05） in 3 and 6 months after surgery， and higher CHLC score indicated worse outcome of y-balance test ［OR 95%CI=1.26（1.12， 1.41）， P<0.001］. There was a negative correlation between the Powerful others health locus of control （PHLC） and the IKDC score （r_3m=-0.51， r_6m=-0.50， P<0.001）， the Lysholm scores （r_3m=-0.36， r_6m=-0.40， P<0.001）， but there was no correlation with the Tegner activity score in 3 and 6 months after surgery（P>0.05）. The risk of poor y-balance test increased by higher score of PHLC ［OR 95%CI=1.74（1.29， 2.34）， P<0.001］. ConclusionA significant correlation was found between the health locus of control and the early rehabilitation effect after ACL reconstruction. Higher internality health locus of control scores indicated a better rehabilitation outcome， while higher scores of external loci of control indicated higher risk of worse rehabilitation outcome.

Objective: Several COVID-19 patients have overlapping comorbidities. The independent role of each component contributing to the risk of COVID-19 is unknown, and how some non-cardiometabolic comorbidities affect the risk of COVID-19 remains unclear. Methods: A retrospective follow-up design was adopted. A total of 1,160 laboratory-confirmed patients were enrolled from nine provinces in China. Data on comorbidities were obtained from the patients' medical records. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate the odds ratio ( Results: Overall, 158 (13.6%) patients were diagnosed with severe illness and 32 (2.7%) had unfavorable outcomes. Hypertension (2.87, 1.30-6.32), type 2 diabetes (T2DM) (3.57, 2.32-5.49), cardiovascular disease (CVD) (3.78, 1.81-7.89), fatty liver disease (7.53, 1.96-28.96), hyperlipidemia (2.15, 1.26-3.67), other lung diseases (6.00, 3.01-11.96), and electrolyte imbalance (10.40, 3.00-26.10) were independently linked to increased odds of being severely ill. T2DM (6.07, 2.89-12.75), CVD (8.47, 6.03-11.89), and electrolyte imbalance (19.44, 11.47-32.96) were also strong predictors of unfavorable outcomes. Women with comorbidities were more likely to have severe disease on admission (5.46, 3.25-9.19), while men with comorbidities were more likely to have unfavorable treatment outcomes (6.58, 1.46-29.64) within two weeks. Conclusion Besides hypertension, diabetes, and CVD, fatty liver disease, hyperlipidemia, other lung diseases, and electrolyte imbalance were independent risk factors for COVID-19 severity and poor treatment outcome. Women with comorbidities were more likely to have severe disease, while men with comorbidities were more likely to have unfavorable treatment outcomes.

Objective: To explore the impact of the natural killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor/human leukocyte antigen (KIR/HLA) receptor-ligand model in single unrelated cord blood transplantation (sUCBT) . Methods: Between July 2012 and June 2018, 270 patients with malignant hematologic diseases receiving single-unit UCBT were divided into two groups. Group 1 (n=174) patients lacked a C-ligand for inhibitory KIR on UCB NK cells (patients homozygous C1/C1 or C2/C2) . Group 2 (n=96) patients expressed both C ligands for inhibitory KIR in the receptor (patients heterozygous C1/C2) . Results: A total of 270 patients (146 males, 124 females) with a median age of 13 years (1-62) were included in this retrospective study. All patients received a myeloablative conditioning regimen (without ATG) . The ratio of neutrophil engraftment for group 1 and 2 were both 98.9%, the median time of neutrophil engraftment for group 1 and 2 was 16 (10-41) days vs 17 (11-33) days (P=0.705) . The ratio of platelet engraftment was 88.5% for group 1 and 87.5% for group 2, the median time of platelet engraftment was 35 (11-113) days vs 38.5 (13-96) days (P=0.317) . The cumulative incidence of Ⅱ-Ⅳ acute GVHD in 100 days was 38.7% (95%CI 31.4%-45.9%) for group 1 and 50.0% (95%CI 39.6%-59.6%) for group 2 (P=0.075) , but multivariate analysis showed that HLA-C ligand absence was an independent protective factor for Ⅱ-Ⅳ acute GVHD after transplantation (P=0.036) . Patients in absence of a C-ligand for inhibitory KIRs (Group 1) showed a lower relapse rate than patients with both C-ligands (group 2) : 17.7% (95%CI 11.7%-24.9%) vs 22.7% (95%CI 4.4%-32.2%) after 3 years (P=0.288) . The median follow-up time was 742 (335-2 512) days. The 3-year OS was 72.1% for group 1 and 60.5% for group 2 (P=0.079) . There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in 3-year disease-free survival [64.9% (95%CI 56.2%-72.3%) vs 55.4% (95%CI 44.4%-65.0%) (χ(2)=3.027, P=0.082) ]. Non-relapse mortality for group 1 was 12.1% (95%CI 7.7%-17.4%) and for group 2 was 16.7% (95%CI 10.0%-24.8%) (P=0.328) . Conclusion: Patients lacking a KIR-ligand of HLA group C1 or C2 had a lower incidence of grades Ⅱ-Ⅳ acute GVHD after sUCBT.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), was found initially in Wuhan, China in early December 2019. The pandemic has spread to 216 countries and regions, infecting more than 23310 000 people and causing over 800 000 deaths globally by Aug. 24, 2020, according to World Health Organization (https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/ novel-coronavirus-2019). Fever, cough, and dyspnea are the three common symptoms of the condition, whereas the conventional transmission route for SARS-CoV-2 is through droplets entering the respiratory tract. To date, infection control measures for COVID-19 have been focusing on the involvement of the respiratory system. However, ignoring potential faecal transmission and the gastrointestinal involvement of SARS-CoV-2 may result in mistakes in attempts to control the pandemic.

Professor is a well-known national veteran doctor with over 70 years of clinical experience. He has unique academic thoughts and clinical experience for common diseases and some difficult and complicated diseases. This paper mainly introduces professor 's syndrome-differentiation thought and experience of acupoint selection for hot flashes. It is emphasized that common hot flashes, such as hot flashes and night sweats, are different between and . While regulating and , more attention should be paid to - harmony, which is not only suitable for women's perimenopausal syndrome, but also for a series of clinical diseases caused by refractory drugs such as endocrine therapy after breast cancer surgery. At the same time of acupoint selection based on syndrome differentiation, a more rational prescriptions should be made according to the duration of the disease and the experience acupoints to improve the clinical efficacy.
