To summarize Professor WANG Xixing's clinical experience in treating advanced breast cancer with anxiety and depression from the perspective of shaoyang pivot. It is believed that the core pathogenesis of advanced breast cancer with anxiety and depression lies in the dysfunction of shaoyang pivot （referring to the imbalanced regulatory function of the shaoyang meridian system that governs the transportation and transformation of qi， blood， and body fluids）. This dysfunction can lead to abnormal circulation of qi， blood， and body fluids， as well as the intermingling of phlegm and blood stasis， which further promotes the spread and diffusion of cancer toxin. Meanwhile， it disturbs mental activity， resulting in a condition characterized by stagnation of cancer toxin and concurrent disorders of both the physical body and the spirit. Based on this pathogenesis， the basic therapeutic principles of harmonizing shaoyang， regulating the pivot to calm the spirit， and dissipating masses and resolving toxins are proposed. Clinically， the disease is classified into three syndromes for differentiation and treatment. For shaoyang pivot dysfunction syndrome， treatment should use self-prescribed Chaiqin Hengshu Ningxin Decoction （柴芩衡枢宁神汤）； for sanjiao pivot dysfunction syndrome， treatment should prescribe Chaigui Tongshu Dashen Decoction （柴归通枢达神饮）； for gallbladder function disorder syndrome， treatment should apply Wendan Qishu Shoushen Decoction （温胆启枢守神汤）. Throughout the treatment process， the concept of "simultaneous treatment of cancer and depression" is implemented to smooth the shaoyang pivot， block the vicious cycle where cancer toxin and emotional abnormalities mutually reinforce each other.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of Ma-Xing Shi-Gan decoction combined with Xiao-Chai-Hu decoction (hereinafter referred to as " Sanyang combined treatment" ) in alleviating colon injury in mice infected with influenza virus by transcriptome sequencing technique.Methods:The mouse model of colonic injury caused by influenza virus was induced by intranasal drip of influenza A virus H1N1 suspension. The mice were divided into Control group, Model group, and Sanyang combined treatment (SCT) group. Model group and SCT group were fed with PBS and Ma-Xing Shi-Gan decoction combined with Xiao-Chai-Hu decoction respectively. Seven days later, the colon tissues of each group were taken, the colon length and pathological damage were observed, and the transcriptome was sequenced to screen the significantly different genes between the SCT group and model group for Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis(GSEA).Results:After the therapy with SCT, the length of the colon of mice was significantly improved and the pathological injury of the colon was reduced. There are 92 differentially expressed genes between the SCT group and the model group. GO analysis indicated that the differential genes were enriched in biological processes such as regulation of cytokine and chemokine production, inflammatory response, defense response, immune response, regulation of NF-κB inducing kinase(NIK)/Nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB) signal and Mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK) cascade, as well as cell components related to intestinal barrier such as brush border membrane, brush border and microvilli. KEGG analysis indicated that the differential genes were enriched in Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, intestinal immune network for IgA production, complement and coagulation cascade, and Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor(PPAR) signaling pathway. GSEA indicated that the intestinal immune network for IgA production, PPAR signaling pathway, propionic acid metabolism and butyrate metabolism were significantly up-regulated after the intervention with SCT, while apoptosis and MAPK signaling pathway were significantly down-regulated.Conclusions:Sanyang combined therapy can protect the intestinal tract of mice infected with influenza virus mainly through immunity, inflammation and metabolism pathways.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of bone grafting in the treatment of type Ⅱ odontoid fracture with pedicle screw fixation .Methods Of 14 cases with type Ⅱ odontoid fractures ,8 patients in group A received pedicle screw,lamina autologous bone grafts,6 cases of group B received simple posterior pedicle screw fixation.The operative time ,the amount of surgical bleeding and the postoperative cervical spine flexion and rotationwere observed at 3 months postoperatively ,and the patients were followed up for 5-45 months.Results All patients were followed up for 5-45 months,with an average of 26.5 months.The operation time was (1.83 ±0.5) h in the bone graft group,and (1.58 ±0.9)h in the non-bone graft group,the difference was statistically significant (t=2.842,P>0.05).The blood loss of the bone graft group was (150 ±16)mL,which of the non-bone graft group was (120 ±14) mL,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (t =3.57,P >0.05).After 3 months,the flexion of the cervical spine of the bone graft group was (31.2 ±4.6)°,which in the non -grafted group was (32.3 ±5.7)°,the difference was statistically significant (t=0.675,P<0.05).The rotation of the bone graft group was (40.6 ±4.5)°,which in the non -graft group was (41.3 ±3.5)°,the difference was statistically significant (t=0.278,P<0.05).Both two groups had no vertebral artery and spinal cord injury ,wound healing. During the follow-up period,the two groups of patients had a good reduction of cervical spine ,no internal fixation lossening,fracture,fracture healing well,group A bone graft fusion.Conclusion For this type of fracture,simple atlantoaxial pedicle screw fixation compared with autologous iliac bone graft fusion treatment ,can save the operation time,reduce the amount of bleeding .

Objective To compare the efficacy of arterial stenting with that of traditional B -T shunt for neo-natal pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum.Methods Twenty -six cases of neonatal pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum were treated at Children′s Hospital of Zhengzhou from December 2005 to December 201 5,aged 3 to 23 days[(8.20 ±4.80)days],and weighted 2.80 -3.88 (3.41 ±0.27)kg.Accompanied with pulmonary hypo-plasia,all these patients were combined with PDA and ASD or PFO.Before operation,the peripheral oxygen saturation was kept in 61 % -75%,averaged at 67%.Among them,1 2 cases underwent arterial catheter stenting,and 1 4 cases re-ceived B -T shunt (including modified B -T shunt and central shunt)ductus ligation.After operation,the oxygen satu-ration in these children was observed,and they were examined by echocardiography and true lateral chest X -ray,blood flow situations in stents and shunts were assessed,and follow -up examinations were conducted in 1 ,3,6 and 1 2 months postoperatively.Results Stents were successfully inserted into these 1 2 cases.After traditional pulmonary shunt,pa-tients′peripheral oxygen saturation was (82.73 ±5.59)%,compared with that of patients after arterial catheter sten-ting (86.1 8 ±3.1 9)%,there was significant difference(t =1 0.71 ,P <0.05).In pulmonary shunt group,2 cases died,1 case died of postoperative heart failure,and the other case was complicated with pulmonary infection and died of respiratory failure;in catheter stent group,1 case was complicated with postoperative supraventricular tachycardia and recovered after drug intervention.For the follow -up examinations 1 ,3,6 and 1 2 months after the operation,1 case of B -T shunt in pulmonary shunt group was improved by central shunt due to slow blood flow,less shunt volume,and ox-ygen saturation decreased to 69%.For the catheter stent group,1 case was improved by stent balloon dilatation due to declined peripheral oxygen saturation 2 months postoperatively,and after the operation,transcutaneous oxygen saturation was improved.No patients died in the catheter stent group.Conclusions In traditional B -T shunts,the operation is extensive,and complications are common,and the recovery turns slowly.Arterial catheter stenting can be used as the preferred method of treatment for one -stage surgical pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum to reduce the weakness feasibly and effectively.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of electroacupuncture pretreatment on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and its influence on high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) expression in rats. Methods Sixty Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, myocardial I/R model group and electroacupuncture pretreatment group by random number table (each n = 20). Myocardial I/R injury model was reproduced by ligating the left ventricular branch coronary artery at about 0.5 cm below the atrial appendage lower margin for 10 minutes to occlude the blood flow, then the ligature was relaxed for 1 hour reperfusion; in electroacupuncture pretreatment group, 7 days before I/R, the electroacupuncture at Neiguan acupoint was applied once daily for 20 minutes till the 7th day when I/R was established. Under light microscope, the pathological changes of myocardial specimen stained by hematoxylin-eosine (HE) method were observed. The myocardial histopathological integral was detected by semi quantitative integral method, and the changes of histological scores in three groups were investigated. The levels of plasma HMGB1, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), cardiac troponin T (cTnT) were detected by enzyme-labeled immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expressions of HMGB1, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), TNF-αmRNA and protein in myocardium were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (PT-PCR) and Western Blot. Results Under light microscope, the myocardial tissue in myocardial I/R model group showed partial fracture of myocardial fibers, large patches of myocardial cell necrosis, hazy boundary, cellular condensation, rupture and dissolution or even disappearance, interstitial edema with a lot of inflammatory cell infiltration; the above myocardial tissue injury in electroacupuncture pretreatment group was significantly milder than that in myocardial I/R model group. Compared with sham operation group, in myocardial I/R model group the HMGB1, TNF-α, cTnT contents and histological score were significantly increased [HMGB1 (μg/L):9.64±1.16 vs. 2.15±0.31, TNF-α(μg/L):91±22 vs. 19±5, cTnT (μg/L):1.50±0.35 vs. 0.07±0.03, histological score:2.5±0.3 vs. 0.0±0.0, all P<0.01], HMGB1, MCP-1, TNF-α mRNA and protein expressions were increased obviously (HMGB1 mRNA: 1.42±0.16 vs. 0.02±0.00, MCP-1 mRNA:0.46±0.06 vs. 0.01±0.00, TNF-αmRNA:0.75±0.04 vs. 0.03±0.00;HMGB1 protein:1.08±0.01 vs. 0.20±0.01, MCP-1 protein:0.92±0.03 vs. 0.40±0.01, TNF-αprotein:1.10±0.02 vs. 0.35±0.01, P<0.05 or P<0.01);compared with myocardial I/R model group, in electroacupuncture pretreatment group, HMGB1 (6.58±0.73), TNF-α (63±19), cTnT (1.15±0.31) levels were significantly decreased (all P < 0.01), HMGB1, MCP-1, TNF-αmRNA and protein expressions were markedly reduced (mRNA expression was 0.74±0.12, 0.18±0.02, 0.10±0.03, and protein expression was 0.40±0.01, 0.36±0.02, 0.50±0.02, respectively all P<0.05), and histological score (1.2±1.0) was remarkably lowered (P < 0.01). Conclusion Electroacupuncture pretreatment may reduce the myocardial I/R injury in rats, and the mechanism may be related to the amelioration of inflammatory response mediated by HMGB1 at late stage.

Objective To study the rule of lymph node metastasis rate in cN 0 papillary thyroid microcar-cinoma( cN0-PTMC) and to evaluate an appropriate region of neck dissection .Methods Data of 233 cases of cN0-PTMC were retrospectively analyzed .Univariate analysis with chi-square test was used to analyze the statisti-cal correlation between gender , age, tumor diameter and lymph node metastasis respectively .Results 81 out of 233 patients(34.8%)had cervical lymph node metastasis (30.0%in central region and 9.9%in lateral region). For patients with tumor diameter ( D)≤5 mm and D>5 mm, lymph node metastasis rate in central region was 21.6%and 36.6%(χ2 =6.199,P<0.05) and it was 4.9% and 13.7% respectively in lateral region (χ2 =5.035,P<0.05).For male and female patients, lymph node metastasis rate in central region was 42.1% and 26.1%respectively(χ2 =5.224,P<0.05), and it was 21.1% and 6.3% respectively in lateral region (χ2 =10.604,P<0.01).Lymph node metastasis rate in patients≤45 years old and >45 years old was 37.9% and 21.1% respectively (χ2 =7.792, P <0.01 ) .The lateral region lymph node metastasis rate was 17.1% and 6.7%when the central region lymph node was infringed or not (χ2 =5.947, P<0.05).Conclusions All cN0-PTMC patients should have a normative central neck dissection .Male patients with PTMC and tumor diameter >5 mm should receive the lateral neck lymphoid tissue exploration during surgery in order to find subclinical metas -tasis.

Even in secular societies, a small portion of patients find their spirituality to help cope with illness. But for the majority of patients, psychosocial and spiritual needs are neither addressed nor even considered a relevant factor by health care professionals. To measure such specific needs, the Spiritual Needs Questionnaire (SpNQ) was developed. The aim of this study was to validate the Chinese version of the SpNQ (SpNQ-Ch) and thus to measure psychosocial and spiritual needs of Chinese patients.
