Taking " harmony of body and spirit" as the theoretical core in Huangdi Neijing and the functional nature and executive structure of the five emotions system as clues, this paper explores and analyzes the relevant theories of the five emotions system in ancient Chinese medicine literature. It is found that the five emotions system is a highly ordered and integrated collection of five functional states. It often resides in the five zang viscera, it operates between the meridians and the xuanfu through the elevation and movement of the qi, and it is the pivotal point for the operation of the qi and blood of the organism, the interactive conduction of information, and the unity of form, emotion, and qi. Therefore, this paper starts from the point of view of system science. It is proposed that the primordial spirit exercises control over the five emotions and the five emotions provide nutrition to the primordial spirit, and that the two are not " islands of information" but have a dynamic and hierarchical internal connection. The executive structure of the five emotions system, namely, the meridians, the xuanfu, and the five zang viscera, is the pivot, and it is recognized that the operation of the five emotions system is a process with self-organizing characteristics and orderly and eternal motion. We think of the qi, blood, ying, and essence as the basis of occurrence, the meridian as the execution channel, and the xuanfu as the place for the spiritual mechanism to enter and exit; the five zang viscera serve as a dwelling place, and ministerial fire serves as the source of energy. This paper serves as reference for future research related to the executive structure of the five emotions system of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective To explore the correlation between the expression of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)brain ischemia-related factor(BIRF)and focally amplified lncRNA on chromosome 1(lncRNA FAL1)in serum and the degree of white matter lesions(WML)in patients with cerebral small vessel disease(CSVD).Methods From June 2021 to June 2023,102 CSVD patients admitted to Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical University were collected,and these patients were grouped into WML group(n=72)and non WML group(n=30)based on WML diagnostic criteria.According to the Fazekas score,the WML group was further grouped into mild WML group(n=24),moderate WML group(n=36)and severe WML group(n=12).Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was applied to detect the levels of lncRNA BIRF and lncRNA FAL1 in serum.Pearson correlation was applied to analyze the correlation between serum lncRNA BIRF and lncRNA FAL1 levels.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the diagnostic value of serum lncRNA BIRF and lncRNA FAL1 levels for severe WML in CSVD patients.Results The age(70.50±5.86 years),history of hypertension(Yes/No,43/29),history of diabetes(Yes/No,45/27),IL-33(68.35±6.80 pg/ml),IL-18(97.78±9.65 ng/L),ubiquitin carboxyl terminal hydrolase L1(UCH-L1)(0.29±0.10 μg/L)and lncRNA BIRF level(2.45±0.30)of patients in the WML group were higher than those in the non WML group(67.10±5.76 years,11/19,9/21,62.48±6.13 pg/ml,92.56±9.37 ng/L,0.24±0.06 μg/L,1.02±0.11),while the expression of serum lncRNA FAL1(0.52±0.10)was lower than that in the non WML group(1.04±0.15),with significant differences(t=2.683,4.518,8.978,4.085,2.510,2.550,25.346,20.500,all P<0.05).The serum lncRNA BIRF levels of CSVD patients in the mild,moderate and severe WML groups(2.23±0.23,2.47±0.31,2.82±0.42)were increased sequentially,while the expression of serum lncRNA FAL1(0.60±0.15,0.51±0.09,0.40±0.04)was decreased sequentially,with significant differences(F=14.913,13.899,all P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis,the serum levels of lncRNA BIRF and lncRNA FAL1 in patients with WML were negatively correlated(r=-0.603,P<0.001),serum lncRNA BIRF was positively correlated with Fazekas score in WML patients(r=0.483,P<0.001),but serum lncRNA FAL1 was negatively correlated with Fazekas score(r=-0.507,P<0.001).The AUCs of serum lncRNA BIRF and lncRNA FAL1 levels alone and both combination for predicting severe WML in CSVD patients were 0.756(0.641～0.850),0.839(0.733～0.915)and 0.892(0.796～0.953),respectively,and the combination of the two was superior to the detection of serum lncRNA BIRF alone(Z=2.111,P=0.035).Conclusion The serum lncRNA BIRF level is increased and lncRNA FAL1 is reduced in patients with CSVD and WML,and both are related to the degree of WML in CSVD patients.

Reprogramming of energy metabolism is one of the basic characteristics of cancer and has been proved to be an important cancer treatment strategy. Isocitrate dehydrogenases (IDHs) are a class of key proteins in energy metabolism, including IDH1, IDH2, and IDH3, which are involved in the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate to yield α-ketoglutarate (α-KG). Mutants of IDH1 or IDH2 can produce d-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG) with α-KG as the substrate, and then mediate the occurrence and development of cancer. At present, no IDH3 mutation has been reported. The results of pan-cancer research showed that IDH1 has a higher mutation frequency and involves more cancer types than IDH2, implying IDH1 as a promising anti-cancer target. Therefore, in this review, we summarized the regulatory mechanisms of IDH1 on cancer from four aspects: metabolic reprogramming, epigenetics, immune microenvironment, and phenotypic changes, which will provide guidance for the understanding of IDH1 and exploring leading-edge targeted treatment strategies. In addition, we also reviewed available IDH1 inhibitors so far. The detailed clinical trial results and diverse structures of preclinical candidates illustrated here will provide a deep insight into the research for the treatment of IDH1-related cancers.

It is known that low-frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) can promote the differentiation and maturation of rat calvarial osteoblasts (ROBs) cultured in vitro. However, the mechanism that how ROBs perceive the physical signals of PEMFs and initiate osteogenic differentiation remains unknown. In this study, we investigated the relationship between the promotion of osteogenic differentiation of ROBs by 0.6 mT 50 Hz PEMFs and the presence of polycystin2 (PC2) located on the primary cilia on the surface of ROBs. First, immunofluorescence staining was used to study whether PC2 is located in the primary cilia of ROBs, and then the changes of PC2 protein expression in ROBs upon treatment with PEMFs for different time were detected by Western blotting. Subsequently, we detected the expression of PC2 protein by Western blotting and the effect of PEMFs on the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), as well as the expression of Runx-2, Bmp-2, Col-1 and Osx proteins and genes related to bone formation after pretreating ROBs with amiloride HCl (AMI), a PC2 blocker. Moreover, we detected the expression of genes related to bone formation after inhibiting the expression of PC2 in ROBs using RNA interference. The results showed that PC2 was localized on the primary cilia of ROBs, and PEMFs treatment increased the expression of PC2 protein. When PC2 was blocked by AMI, PEMFs could no longer increase PC2 protein expression and ALP activity, and the promotion effect of PEMFs on osteogenic related protein and gene expression was also offset. After inhibiting the expression of PC2 using RNA interference, PEMFs can no longer increase the expression of genes related to bone formation. The results showed that PC2, located on the surface of primary cilia of osteoblasts, plays an indispensable role in perceiving and transmitting the physical signals from PEMFs, and the promotion of osteogenic differentiation of ROBs by PEMFs depends on the existence of PC2. This study may help to elucidate the mechanism underlying the promotion of bone formation and osteoporosis treatment in low-frequency PEMFs.

Objective:To summarize the midterm to long-term outcomes and experiences of endovascular treatment (ET) of spontaneous isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection (SISMAD).Methods:The clinical data of 31 SISMAD patients from Jan 2011 to Dec 2019 treated with ET was retrospectively analyzed.Results:Successful ET was achieved in 29 patients with a technical success rate of 93.5%. A total of 36 self-expandable bare stents were planted in 28 patients and plain old balloon angioplastry (POBA) was performed in 1 patient. Abdominal pain disappeared within 24 hours in 89.3% of the patients after stenting. The rate of perioperative complication was 3.2%. There was no SMA dissection rupture bleeding, nor perioperative death occurred. The mean follow-up time was 53.5 (range, 6 to 110) months. There was no dissecting aneurysm formation, no SMA rupture and bleeding, and no stent rupture during the follow-up. The post ET 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year free from reintervention rate were 100%, 100%, and 91.7%, respectively.Conclusions:ET for SISMAD is safe and effective with satisfactory perioperative and midterm to long-term outcomes.

Objective:To evaluate the imaging features of CT scan in patients with COVID-19.Methods:Clinical data of 56 patients with COVID-19 from January 17 to 19, 2020 admitted to Wenzhou Central Hospital and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical manifestations, lung imaging characteristics and treatment outcomes of patients with different severity were analyzed with SAS software.Results:Fever (92.8%, 52/56), dry cough (75.0%, 42/56) and asthenia (58.9%, 33/56) were the first symptoms in most of the patients; some patients also had shortness of breath (25.0%, 14/56) and pharyngeal pain (10.7%, 6/56). Chest high-resolution CT scan showed that in 42 moderate patients, ground glass-like high-density shadows in the lung were observed in 30 cases (71.4%) ; localized plaque consolidation shadows and bronchial inflation signs were observed in 10 cases (23.8%). In 12 severe patients, 11 had high-density patches involving multiple lung lobes (≥3). In 2 critically ill patients the patches and stripes involving the entire lung were observed; and cord-like high-density shadow, local consolidation and fibrosis were also shown.Conclusion:The multiple ground-glass changes outside the lungs are early imaging manifestations of COVID-19 patients. The increase in pulmonary lobe consolidation and fibrosis may indicate the disease progression, and the degree of lung consolidation and fibrosis is closely related to the disease severity.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of rocuronium on limb ischemia-reperfusion injury in the patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.Methods:Ninety patients of both sexes, aged 50-80 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, with body mass index<30 kg/cm 2, scheduled for elective unilateral knee arthroplasty under general anesthesia combined with femoral nerve block from January 2019 to October 2019, were divided into 3 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: normal saline group (group S), rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg group (group RL) and rocuronium 1.2 mg/kg group (group RH). Anesthesia was induced by intravenous injection of midazolam, etomidate, sufentanil and rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg (group RL) or 1.2 mg/kg (group RH) or equal volume of normal saline (group S). Mechanical ventilation was performed after placement of laryngeal mask to maintain P ETCO 2 35-45 mmHg.Femoral nerve block was performed under ultrasound guidance.Anesthesia was maintained by inhaling 1% sevoflurane and intravenous infusion of propofol and remifentanil to maintain entropy index at 40-60 during operation.Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was performed with sufentanil after surgery to maintain visual analogue scale score ≤ 4 points.When visual analogue scale score was > 4, flurbiprofen axetil 100 mg was intravenously injected.The vastus medialis muscle at the edge of the incision was obtained at 60 min after inflation to determine the expression of dystrophin by immunohistochemistry.Arterial blood samples were collected immediately after inflation of the tourniquet, at 60 min after inflation, and at 5 and 30 min after deflation for determination of the serum malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations by the thiobarbituric acid method.The effective pressing times of the analgesic pump and consumption of sufentanil and flurbiprofen axetil were recorded within 48 h after operation.The occurrence of responses to tourniquet and residual muscle relaxation during recovery from anesthesia, the first postoperative off-bed time and postoperative length of hospital stay were recorded.The thigh girth was measured before operation and at 24 and 48 h after operation, and the difference after and before operation was calculated.The range of motion of knees of the operated limb and tourniquet-related complications in the early postoperative period (3 days) and in the long-term postoperative period (3 months) were recorded. Results:Compared with group S, the expression of dystrophin in skeletal muscle was significantly up-regulated, the concentration of serum MDA was decreased at 30 min after deflation, and the difference in thigh girth at 24 and 48 h after operation was decreased in group RH, and the range of motion of knees was significantly increased at 3 days and 3 months after operation, and the first postoperative off-bed time was shortened in group RH and group RL ( P<0.05). Compared with group RL, the range of motion of knees was significantly increased at 3 days and 3 months after operation, and the first postoperative off-bed time was shortened in group RH ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of responses to tourniquet, postoperative length of hospital stay, effective pressing times of the analgesic pump, postoperative consumption of sufentanil and flurbiprofen axetil, and the incidence of tourniquet-related complications in the early and long-term postoperative periods among the three groups ( P>0.05). No residual muscle relaxation was found during recovery from anesthesia in three groups. Conclusion:Rocuronium 1.2 mg/kg can reduce limb ischemia-reperfusion injury in the patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.
