Liver fibrosis is the intermediate stage in the progression of many chronic liver diseases to liver cirrhosis， and although there is still a lack of widely accepted and effective chemical or biological agents for reversing liver fibrosis， significant progress has been made in the treatment of liver fibrosis with traditional Chinese medicine. This article elaborates on the molecular mechanisms of different herbal extracts， a single Chinese herb， and Chinese patent drugs in reversing liver fibrosis， such as inhibiting liver inflammation， exerting an effect on lipid peroxidation damage， inhibiting the activation and proliferation of hepatic stellate cells， regulating the synthesis and secretion of pro-fibrogenic factors， and regulating the synthesis and degradation of extracellular matrix， in order to provide more precise options for the treatment of liver fibrosis in the future.

Objective To study the effect of medial collateral ligament(MCL)release on the squatting motion followling total knee arthroplasty(TKA)and provide reference data for ligament release during knee replacement surgery.Methods Based on CT and MRI images of a volunteer,a three-dimensional(3D)geometric anatomical model of the natural knee joint including bone tissues and major soft tissues was established.A finite element model of the artificial knee joint was established by simulating TKA surgery.The squatting motion after 30％release of the upper end,lower end,and both ends of the MCL was simulated,and motion characteristic data of the knee joint at flexion/extension angles from 0° to 135° were obtained.Results The effects of ligament release at different locations on knee squatting motion varied.After releasing the lower end,the medial translation,posterior translation,superior translation,and adduction of the femur relative to the tibia increased by 13.74％,3.83％,9.74％,and 2.37％,respectively,while the external rotation decreased by 36.8％.After releasing the upper end,the medial translation and posterior translation increased by 10.65％and 10％,respectively,while the superior translation,adduction,and external rotation decreased by 4.52％,33.89％,and 67.1％,respectively.After releasing both ends,the medial translation,posterior translation,and superior translation increased by 14.77％,9.39％,and 22.56％,respectively,while the adduction and external rotation decreased by 15.62％and 47.3％,respectively.Conclusions After MCL released,the medial translation,anterior translation,superior translation,and abduction of the femur relative to the tibia increased,while the external rotation decreased.Releasing the lower end had the least effect on these femoral movements,showing an obvious advantage.

Objective:To analyze the focuses and shortcomings of the long-term care policy for disabled elderlies in China, for references to optimize such policies.Methods:The data came from the policy documents on long-term care for disabled elderlies published on respective official websites of various ministries and commissions from January 1, 2013 to April 20, 2022. Text quantitative analysis was used to extract policy clauses, and three types of policy tools(including 13 types of sub-tools) were used to analyze these provisions.Results:132 clauses were extracted from a total of 34 policy documents, of which the number of clauses of supply, demand and environmental policy tools were 28(21.21%), 25(18.94%) and 79(59.85%) respectively. There were few clauses on scientific and technological information support(5) and capital investment(3) in the supply-type policy tools; In terms of demand-based policy tools, there were only a few clauses for government purchase(5), pilot projects(3) and service outsourcing(2); In terms of environmental policy tools, there were only a few clauses for standard design(9) and supervision and management(7).Conclusions:The long-term care policy structure of the disabled elderly in China was not balanced, the supply-based policy tools had less scientific and technological information support, the demand-based policy tools were short and single, and the environment-based policy tools were widely used but lack of standard design. Relevant policy-making departments should further improve the accuracy of policy targets, optimize the internal structure of policy tools, pay attention to the application of scientific and technological information policies and clarify the relevant standards of care services.

Objective:To analyze the association between thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) and differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) metastases detected by post-radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy scan, when stimulated thyroglobulin (sTg) <1 μg/L.Methods:A total of 314 (68 males, 246 females, age (44.5±12.5) years) post-thyroidectomy DTC patients whose sTg <1 μg/L between March 2013 and May 2017 in Henan Cancer Hospital were enrolled retrospectively. Patients underwent 131I whole-body planar imaging ( 131I-WBS) and SPECT/CT imaging 5 d after 131I administration. Iodine avid metastases were compared between TgAb-positive group and TgAb-negative (TgAb<4 kU/L) group. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess odds ratio ( OR) for iodine avid metastases in each subgroup (Q1: 4 kU/L≤TgAb≤9.27 kU/L; Q2: 9.27 kU/L101.43 kU/L) of TgAb-positive patients, with the TgAb-negative patients as the reference. χ2 test was used to analyze the data. Results:Iodine avid metastases were found in 16.9% (53/314) of DTC patients and were more frequently in TgAb-positive group with TgAb>26.75 kU/L than TgAb-negative group (26.0%(19/73) vs 13.7%(23/168); χ2=5.382, P=0.02). Most metastases (92.5%, 49/53) occurred in cervical and mediastinal lymph nodes. The OR for iodine avid metastases was obviously high in TgAb-positive patients with 26.75 kU/L

Objective:To analyze the cognition and willingness of family physicians on contracted service, and to explore the implementation obstacles and feasible strategies of implementing contracted service of family physicians from the perspective of suppliers.Methods:From July to October 2020, 850 family physicians in community health service centers or township health centers in three cities of Shandong Province were investigated by questionnaire survey and key person interview. Descriptive analysis and binary logistic regression model were used to analyze the willingness of family physicians to provide contracted service. Through questionnaire survey and key person interview, the implementation obstacles and service optimization strategies of family physicians were discussed.Results:791 valid questionnaires were obtained, of which 688(87.0%) approved the implementation of family physician contract service, and 679(85.8%) expressed willingness to provide family physician contract service.

With the progress of gene detection technology and the speed-up in new drug development, biological target therapy has fully covered the first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC. Immunotherapy has significantly improved the survival of advanced NSCLC patients with negative driven genes, and the median OS reaches about 2 years (15.6-30 months). EGFR is the most common driven gene. According to different EGFR mutation subtypes (L858R or 19del), different treatment mode (EGFR-TKI single drug, TKI combined with anti-vascular drugs and TKI combined with chemotherapy) is selected as the first-line treatment, which has become a consensus. Depending on the data of median PFS, the treatment efficacy against rare targets is more prominent, which has exceeded the efficacy of standard chemotherap:ALK (alectinib, PFS=34.8 months), ROS1 (ceritinib, PFS=19.3 months), RET (selpercatinib, PFS=18.4 months), BRAF (dabrafenib plus trametinib, PFS=14.6 months), NTRK (larotrectinib, PFS≥12 months) and MET (savolitinib, PFS=9.7 months). In conclusion, the first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC has entered the era of“precision-targeted treatment”based on different molecular typing, and it has become a consensus that high-throughput sequencing is required for newly diagnosed patients.

Objective:To verify the clinical safety and efficacy of new intelligent ventilation mode adaptive minute ventilation (AMV)+IntelliCycle ventilation in patients with mild-to-moderate acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods:The patients with mild-to-moderate ARDS, admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University from February 2018 to February 2019, were enrolled in the study. The patients were divided into synchronous intermittent mandatory ventilation+pressure support ventilation (SIMV+PSV) group and AMV+IntelliCycle group according to the random number table method. All patients were given mechanical ventilation, anti-infection, analgesia and sedation, nutritional support and symptomatic treatment of primary disease after admission. SV800 ventilator was used for mechanical ventilation. In the AMV+IntelliCycle group, after setting the minute ventilation volume (VE), inhaled oxygen concentration (FiO 2) and positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP), the ventilator was turned on the full-automatic mode, and the preset value of VE percentage was 120%. In the SIMV+PSV group, the ventilator parameters were set as follows: the ventilation frequency was 12-20 times/min, the inspiratory expiratory ratio was 1∶1-2, the peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) limit level was 35-45 cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O = 0.098 kPa), and the setting of FiO 2 and PEEP was as the same as that of AMV+IntelliCycle group, the triggering flow was set to 2 L/min. All of the clinical parameters between the two groups were compared. The main outcomes were duration of mechanical ventilation, ventilator alarm times, manual operation times, and the mechanical power; the secondary outcomes were respiratory rate (RR), VE, tidal volume (VT), PIP, mouth occlusion pressure (P0.1), static compliance (Cst), work of breathing (WOB), and time constant at 0, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 120 hours; and the blood gas analysis parameters of patients before and after ventilation were recorded. Results:A total of 92 patients with mild-to-moderate ARDS were admitted during the study period, excluding those who quit the study due to death, abandonment of treatment, accidental extubation of tracheal intubation and so on. Eighty patients were finally enrolled in the analysis, with 40 patients in SIMV+PSV group and AMV+IntelliCycle group respectively. ① Results of main outcomes: compared with the SIMV+PSV mode, AMV+IntelliCycle ventilation mode could shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation (hours: 106.35±55.03 vs. 136.50±73.78), reduce ventilator alarm times (times: 10.35±5.87 vs. 13.93±6.87) and the manual operations times (times: 4.25±2.01 vs. 6.83±3.75), and decrease the mechanical power (J/min: 12.88±4.67 vs. 16.35±5.04, all P < 0.05). But the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2) of AMV+IntelliCycle group was significantly higher than that of SIMV+PSV group [mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 41.58±6.81 vs. 38.45±5.77, P < 0.05]. ② Results of secondary outcomes: the RR of both groups was improved significantly with the prolongation of ventilation time which showed a time effect ( F = 4.131, P = 0.005). Moreover, compared with SIMV+PSV mode, AMV+IntelliCycle mode could maintain a better level of RR, with intervention effect ( F = 5.008, P = 0.031), but no interaction effect was found ( F = 2.489, P = 0.055). There was no significant difference in VE, PIP, P0.1 or Cst between the two groups, without intervention effect ( F values were 3.343, 2.047, 0.496, 1.456, respectively, all P > 0.05), but they were significantly improved with the prolongation of ventilation time in both groups, with time effect ( F values were 2.923, 12.870, 23.120, 7.851, respectively, all P < 0.05), but no interaction effect was found ( F values were 1.571, 1.291, 0.300, 0.354, respectively, all P > 0.05). The VT, WOB or time constant in both groups showed no significant changes with the prolongation of ventilation time, and no significant difference was found between the two groups, there was neither time effect ( F values were 0.613, 1.049, 2.087, respectively, all P > 0.05) nor intervention effect ( F values were 1.459, 0.514, 0.923, respectively, all P > 0.05). Conclusion:AMV+IntelliCycle ventilation mode can shorten the ventilation time of patients with mild-to-moderate ARDS, reduce mechanical power, and reduce the workload of medical care, but PaCO 2 in the patients with AMV+IntelliCycle mode is higher than that in the patients with SIMV+PSV mode.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of 125I seeds implantation in the treatment of primary liver cancer with portal vein tumor thrombus. Methods:A total of 218 patients (184 males and 34 females, age: (53.8±9.2) years) with primary liver cancer with portal vein tumor thrombus between January 2015 and June 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent 125I seeds implantation under CT guidance. CT examination and liver function test were repeated 2-3 months after the implantation, and the portal vein tumor thrombus diameter, liver function parameters and ascites before and after treatment were compared. All patients were followed up for 2-26 months and the survival time were calculated. Paired t test was used for data analysis. Results:Among 218 patients, 8 patients (3.7%) had complete remission of tumor thrombus, 111 patients (50.9%) had partial remission, 80 patients (36.7%) had no change, and 19 patients (8.7%) had disease progression 2-3 months after the implantation. The total effective rate was 91.3%(199/218). The diameter of tumor thrombus after treatment was (12.63±4.64) mm, which was significantly smaller than that before treatment ((26.65±10.88) mm; t=18.74, P<0.01); serum bilirubin, the direct bilirubin after treatment were different compared with those before treatment: (20.59±10.29) vs (24.27±12.65) pg/L ( t=5.37, P<0.05), (11.40±8.37) vs (15.64±7.99) pg/L ( t=8.44, P<0.05); the indirect bilirubin after treatment was not significantly different from that before treatment ( t=0.85, P>0.05). Ascites in 86/142 patients were better after the implantation. No serious complications associated with treatment were seen. There were 162 patients died and 56 patients survived till the end of follow-up. The survival time of all patients was (9.23±0.59) months. Conclusion:125I seeds implantation can safely and effectively treat the portal vein tumor thrombus in patients with primary liver cancer, and improve the clinical symptoms such as ascites.
