ObjectiveThis paper aims to observe the syndrome improvement and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome）. MethodsThrough a multi-center randomized controlled methodology design，confirmed influenza cases were collected from October 2022 to April 2023 in the pediatrics department of eight hospitals，such as Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. A total of 180 children with influenza and heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome conforming to the standard were recruited through the clinic. The sick children meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into groups by a block-randomized method. The children in the experimental group were treated with Qingxuan Daozhi formula for five days，and those in the control group were treated with Oseltamivir Phosphate Granules for five days. The primary efficacy indicator was the negative conversion rate of influenza antigen detection. Secondary efficacy indicators were the Canadian acute respiratory illness and flu scale （CARIFS） and the incidence of complications，severe cases， and critical cases. Follow-up observation was conducted on the day of enrollment，48 hours after medication，72 hours after medication， and （6+1） d after medication. ResultsOne hundred and eighty participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group （90 cases） or the control group （90 cases）. All participants were followed up during the study. Comparison of influenza antigen detection results in the primary efficacy indicators showed that the average time of negative influenza antigen conversion in the experimental group was （5.29±1.25） d，and that in the control group was （5.40±1.68） d，without a statistically significant difference. After five days of intervention，52 cases in the experimental group and 51 cases in the control group converted to negative，without a statistically significant difference. CARIFS score results in the secondary efficacy indicators showed that during 72 hours after intervention，there were statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in three dimensions， including headache，muscle soreness， and the need for extra care （P<0.05）. On the （6+1） days after the intervention，the differences in both the experimental group and the control group were statistically significant in 10 dimensions， including sore throat，bad sleep，uncomfortable feeling，poor spirit and fatigue，crying more than usual，the need for extra care，symptom，function，influence on parents，and total score （P<0.05）. The comparison results within the group in the dimensional scores of symptom， function， and influence on parents，as well as the CARIFS total score showed that with the delay of follow-up time，scores of both groups decreased significantly，with a statistically significant difference （P<0.01）. Inter-group comparison results showed that the mean score of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group at the time of enrollment. With the progress of intervention，the score of the experimental group was significantly decreased compared with that of the control group. At the end of follow-up，the mean score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group，with no statistically significant difference. In terms of the incidence of complications，severe cases， and critical cases， there were no complications，severe cases， and critical cases in the two groups，without a statistically significant difference. ConclusionThe symptom improvement effect and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome） are not inferior to Oseltamivir Phosphate granules， and children's acceptance is better. It can be more widely used in clinical treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome）.

OBJECTIVE To study the levels of serum chitinase-like protein-40(YKL-40),protease-activated recep-tor 1(PAR1)messenger ribonucleic acid(mRNA)and programmed cell death molecule 5(PDCD5)in patients with influenza A virus infection-related pneumonia,and to investigate their relationship with prognosis.METHODS A total of 951 patients with simple influenza A virus infection diagnosed and treated in Linfen People's Hospital from Jan.2022 to Jan.2024 were selected as the influenza A group,166 patients with influenza A virus infection-related pneumonia were selected as the influenza A pneumonia group,963 healthy people who underwent physical examination in the hospital during the same period were selected as the healthy group,and the levels of serum YKL-40,PAR1 mRNA and PDCD5 were compared among the three groups.According to the prognosis of pa-tients with influenza A virus infection-related pneumonia,the patients in the influenza A pneumonia group were di-vided into a good prognosis group(139 cases)and a poor prognosis group(27 cases),the levels of serum YKL-40,PAR1 mRNA and PDCD5 were compared between the two groups,and the predictive value of the combina-tion of the three on the prognosis of patients with influenza A virus infection-related pneumonia was analyzed.RESULTS The levels of serum YKL-40,PAR1 mRNA and PDCD5 in the influenza A pneumonia group were(39.41±7.85)ng/ml,(11.31±3.52)and(3.04±0.89)μg/L,respectively,which were higher than those in the influenza A group[(28.19±5.88)ng/ml,(5.87±1.29),(1.96±0.55)μg/L]and the healthy group,and those in the influenza A group was higher than in the healthy group(P＜0.05).The levels of serum YKL-40,PAR1 mRNA and PDCD5 in the poor prognosis group were(45.73±9.63)ng/ml,(13.20±4.11)μg/L and(3.96±1.32)μg/L,respectively,which were higher than those in the good prognosis group(P＜0.05).The ar-ea under the curve(AUC)of serum YKL-40,PAR1 mRNA,and PDCD5 combined to predict the prognosis of pa-tients with influenza A virus infection-associated pneumonia was 0.840,which was higher than that of the three tests alone(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION The occurrence of influenza A virus infection and its related pneumonia cause elevated levels of serum YKL-40,PAR1 mRNA and PDCD5,and the combination of the three can effective-ly improve the prognostic value of patients with influenza A virus infection-related pneumonia.

To explore the effects of different blood loss on liver and kidney function,blood lactic acid levels,and oxidative stress indexes after hemorrhagic shock resuscitation in dogs,10 healthy Chinese rural dogs were randomly divided into 1.5 h blood loss resuscitation group(HSRA group)and 3.5 h blood loss resuscitation group(HSRB group).The changes in liver and kidney function,blood lactic acid,and oxidative stress-related indexes were detected at 2,6,24,48 and 72 h after re-suscitation.The results showed that the liver function indexes of TBIL,ALT,and AST in the HSRB group were higher than those in the HSRA group at each time point after resuscitation.There was no significant change in renal function indexes between the two groups.The level of Lac in the HSRB group was significantly higher than that in the HSRA group at 2 and 6 h after resuscitation.CAT activity in the HSRB group was significantly lower than that in the HSRA group at 2 h after resuscitation.GSH-px activity in the HSRB group was significantly lower than that in the HSRA group at 2,6 and 24 h after resuscitation.SOD activity in the HSRB group was significantly lower than that in the HSRA group at 24 h after resuscitation.MDA content in the HSRB group was sig-nificantly higher than that in the HSRA group at 2,6,24 and 48 h after resuscitation.The results showed that HS could cause liver injury and oxidative stress after resuscitation,and the degree of liver injury and oxidative stress injury in dogs increased with the prolongation of blood loss.

Objective To investigate the effect of resveratrol(RES)on the function of osteoarthritis synovioblast(OA-FLS)and its molecular mechanism.Methods The purchased primary synovial cells were cultured to the third generation,and OA-FLS cell model was induced by IL-1β.The activity of FLS cells was observed by CCK-8 assay,and the appropriate RES intervention concentration was selected.The cells were divided into Control group,OA-FLS group,Low-RES group(1μmol/L)and High-RES group(5μmol/L).The effects of RES on the migration and invasion of OA-FLS were detected by cell scratch assay and Transwell assay.The effect of RES on OA-FLS apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry.The effects of RES on the expression of inflammatory factors in OA-FLS and re-lated proteins in NF-κB signaling pathway were detected by Western blot.Results The results of CCK-8 experiment showed that the concentration of RES above 10μmol/L significantly inhibited the viability of FLS cells,and the concentration of RES above 1 μmol/L and 5μmol/L had no significant effect on the viability of FLS cells.Compared with the Control group,the migration and invasion ability of OA-FLS group was enhanced,while the apoptosis ability was weakened,and the migration,invasion and apoptosis ability of OA-FLS group was significantly reversed after RES intervention.Western blot results showed that,compared with the Control group,the levels of inflammatory cytokines in OA-FLS group were increased,and the NF-κB signaling pathway was activated,while the treatment of OA-FLS with different concentrations of RES could reduce the expression of inflammatory cytokines and inhibit the transcription of nuclear fac-tors.Conclusion RES inhibited migration and invasion of OA-FLS,promoted apoptosis,and decreased the expression of inflammatory factors of OA-FLS,which may be related to the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway by RES.

Objective:To explore the expressions of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) homeobox A11 antisense RNA (HOXA11-AS) and lymphoid enhancer-binding factor 1 antisense RNA 1 (LEF1-AS1) in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and their relationships with prognosis.Methods:Prospectively, 80 patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma who were treated in Handan Central Hospital from February 2019 to February 2021 were selected. The hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues resected surgically and the adjacent normal tissues (more than 2 cm away from the edge of the cancer tissue) were obtained. The expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). The expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and adjacent normal tissues were compared. The relationships between their expressions and clinicopathological features were analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the relationships between high/low expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 and the prognosis of patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma.Results:The expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues were higher than those in adjacent normal tissues (all P<0.05). The expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues were related to tumor node metastasis (TNM) stage, degree of differentiation, and lymph node metastasis (all P<0.05). The 3-year overall survival rates of patients with high expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues were lower than those of patients with low expressions (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The expressions of HOXA11-AS and LEF1-AS1 are increased in hypopharyngeal carcinoma tissues, which are related to poor prognosis of patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the relationship between the Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation (OAAS) score and the bispectral index (BIS) during propofol titration for general anesthesia induction and analyze the impact of BIS monitoring delay on anesthetic depth assessment. METHODS: This study was conducted among 90 patients (ASA class I-II) undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia. For anesthesia induction, the patients received propofol titration at the rate of 0.5 mg·kg^-1·min^-1 till OAAS scores of 4, 3, 2, and 1 were reached. After achieving an OAAS score of 1, remifentanil (2 μg·kg⁻¹) and rocuronium (0.6 mg·kg⁻¹) were administered, and tracheal intubation was performed 2 min later. BIS values, mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and propofol dosage at each OAAS score were recorded, and the correlation between OAAS scores and BIS values was analyzed. The diagnostic performance of BIS values for determining when the OAAS score reaches 1 was analyzed using ROC curve. RESULTS: All the patients successfully completed tracheal intubation. BIS values of the patients at each of the OAAS scores differed significantly (P<0.01), and the mean BIS value decreased by 4.08, 8.32, 5.43 and 5.24 as the OAAS score decreased from 5 to 4, from 4 to 3, from 3 to 2, and from 2 to 1, respectively. There was a significant correlation between the OAAS score and BIS values (ρ=0.775, P<0.001). The median BIS value for an OAAS score of 1 was 76, at which point 83.33% of the patients had BIS values exceeding 60. ROC curve analysis showed that for determining an OAAS score of 1, BIS value, at the optimal cutoff value of 84, had a sensitivity of 88.9%, a specificity of 73.3%, and an area under the curve of 0.842 (0.803-0.881). CONCLUSIONS OAAS score during induction of general anesthesia is strongly correlated with BIS value and is a highly sensitive and timely indicator to compensate for the delay in BIS monitoring.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and related factors of cognition disorders in elderly hypertensive patients.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. A total of 612 hypertensive patients with the age of (69.06±6.58) years (median 68.00 years) admitted in the Department of Cardiology, General Hospital of Chinese People′s Liberation Army from October 2022 to April 2024 were enrolled. The demographic and clinical data were collected, the cognition status was assessed with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) at admission. The related factors of cognition disorders were analyzed with univariate and multivariate logistic regression.Results:The results showed that female hypertensive patients and those with older age, lower education, higher fasting blood glucose (FBG) and diabetes mellitus, higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level, higher systolic blood pressure (SBP) and more cardiovascular comorbidities were likely to have cognition disorders (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that smoking history, elevated SBP, elevated heart rate, elevated FBG, and elevated LDL-C were independent risk factors for cognition disorders in elderly hypertensive patients,while higher education level was an independent protective factor (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Smoking, increased SBP, increased heart rate, increased FBG, increased LDL-C and lower education level are independently associated with cognition disorders in elderly hypertensive patients.
