		                        			Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of exercise-based acupuncture in treating ischemic stroke and its effects in improving the patient's motor function and daily living ability. Methods:A total of 106 patients with motor dysfunction due to cerebral infarction were randomized into a trial group and a control group,each consisting of 53 cases.Both groups received conventional rehabilitation;in addition,the control group was given point-toward-point acupuncture at scalp points,and the trial group was offered exercise-based acupuncture,3 times weekly for 4 consecutive weeks.Before treatment,after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment,and at the 2-month follow-up,the Fugl-Meyer assessment(FMA)scale,Lovett scale for muscle strength,modified Ashworth scale(MAS),and activities of daily living(ADL)scale were used to assess the patient's motor function,muscle strength,muscle tension,and daily living ability. Results:After treatment,both groups gained improvements in motor function and daily living ability;after 4-week treatment and at the 2-month follow-up,the trial group had higher FMA and ADL scores than the control group(P<0.05).The MAS score decreased after treatment in both groups;after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment and at the 2-month follow-up,the MAS score was lower in the trial group than in the control group(P<0.05).After the intervention,the Lovett score increased in both groups;after 4 weeks of treatment,the Lovett score was higher in the trial group than in the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion:Based on routine rehabilitation,exercise-based acupuncture and scalp point-toward-point acupuncture both can improve the motor function and daily living ability in ischemic stroke patients;exercise-based acupuncture performs better than scalp point-toward-point acupuncture.

		                        			Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive chronic neurodegenerative disorder with a complex pathogenesis involving oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and other factors. Currently, the clinical treatment of PD mainly includes levodopa, dopamine receptor agonists, monoamine oxidase B inhibitors, catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitors, and anticholinergic drugs, but there is a lack of disease-modif g therapies that can definitively improve disease progression. According to the understanding of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), PD is characterized by asthenia in origin and sthenia in superficiality. It is primarily caused by liver-kidney Yin deficiency, Qi-blood insufficiency, and closely related to wind, fire, phlegm, and blood stasis. Numerous clinical practices have shown that TCM has significant clinical value in the prevention and treatment of PD, the management of motor and non-motor symptoms, and the neuroprotection of dopaminergic neurons. The underlying mechanisms of TCM include antioxidative stress, anti-neuroinflammation, and regulation of mitochondrial dysfunction. This article categorized and summarized the pathogenesis of PD, systematically elucidated the pharmacological actions and molecular mechanisms of TCM monomer extracts and compounds in the prevention and treatment of PD, and provided the latest clinical research progress, aiming to provide references for the development and clinical use of TCM for PD.

		                        			ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Dendrobium huoshanense polysaccharide (DHP) against inflammatory damage of neurons in Parkinson's disease (PD) model. MethodSH-SY5Y cells were randomized into blank group, model group, and DHP group. The survival rate of cells was measured by thiazole blue(MTT) assay, and the levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were measured by colorimetric analysis. BV-2 microglia were classified into blank group, model group, DHP group, and MCC950 group (positive control group), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was applied to detect the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-18 (IL-18). The expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), adaptor protein apoptosis-associated dot protein (ASC), cysteine aspartic protease-1 (Caspase-1), and IL-1β was measured by Western blot. A total of 50 C57BL/6 mice were randomized into blank group, model group, DHP low-dose (100 mg·kg-1) group, DHP equivalent-dose (350 mg·kg-1) group, and MCC950 group (positive control group), 10 mice in each group. The motor balance and coordination of C57BL/6 mice were observed by beam walking test, tail suspension test and rotarod test. The levels of Iba-1 and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) were detected by immunofluorescence staining. The damage of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra was detected by FJB staining. The levels of inflammatory factors such as IL-1β, IL-18, and TNF-α in mouse midbrain tissues were detected by ELISA and the protein levels of NLRP3, ASC, Caspase-1, and IL-1β protein were measured by Western blot. ResultCompared with the blank group, the SH-SY5Y model group showed decreased cell survival, increased levels of LDH, ROS, and MDA (P<0.05), and decreased levels of SOD (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the DHP group demonstrated increased cell survival, decreased levels of LDH, ROS, and MDA (P<0.01), and increased level of SOD (P<0.01). Compared with the blank group, BV-2 model group had high levels of IL-1β, IL-18, and TNF-α (P<0.05) and high protein expression of NLRP3, Caspase-1, IL-1β, and ASC (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, DHP and MCC950 groups demonstrated low levels of IL-1β, IL-18, and TNF-α (P<0.01) and low protein expression of NLRP3, Caspase-1, IL-1β, and ASC (P<0.01). Compared with the blank group, the C57BL/6 model group displayed long time to pass the balance wood (P<0.05), short time spent on the rod in the rotarod test (P<0.05), high levels of IL-1β, IL-18, and TNF-α (P<0.05) and expression of Iba-1 in the midbrain substantia nigra (P<0.05), low TH expression (P<0.05), more positive neurons in the FJB staining (P<0.05), and high expression of NLRP3, Caspase-1, ASC, and IL-1β proteins (P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, the mice in the DHP and MCC950 groups had short time to pass the balance beam (P<0.01), long time spent on the rod (P<0.01), low levels of IL-1β, IL-18, and TNF-α (P<0.01), low Iba-1 expression in midbrain substantia nigra (P<0.01), high TH expression (P<0.01), and small number of positive neurons in the midbrain substantia nigra (P<0.01). The expression of NLRP3, ASC, and IL-1β proteins was lower in the MCC950 group (P<0.01), and the expression of NLRP3, ASC, Caspase-1 and IL-1β proteins was lower in the DHP equivalent-dose group (P<0.01) than in the model group. ConclusionDHP has anti-oxidative stress effect. It regulates the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome and inhibits the overactivation of microglia, thereby alleviating the neuroinflammatory injury in PD and exerting the neuroprotective effect.

		                        			 Objective To investigate the epidemiological features and antiviral response of patients with genotype 6 chronic hepatitis C (CHC) in Guangxi, China. Methods A total of 97 patients with genotype 6 CHC who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from December 2012 to December 2020 were enrolled, among whom 62 patients were given antiviral therapy. The 62 patients receiving antiviral therapy were divided into interferon group with 22 patients and direct-acting antiviral agent (DAA) group with 40 patients. Related data were collected, including general demographic data, HCV RNA, liver function, routine blood test results, and renal function. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. Results Among the 97 patients, there were 69 male patients (71.1%) and 28 female patients (28.9%), with a mean age of 41.97±10.12 years, and the patients aged 30-40 years accounted for 47.4% (46/97). Of all 97 patients, 95 (97.9%) had genotype 6a, 1 had genotype 6e, and 1 had genotype 6xa. Among the 65 patients with a definite route of infection, 41 (63.1%) had intravenous drug use, 14 had medical-related operations, 9 had blood transfusion, and 4 had sexual contact as the route of infection. For the interferon group, the rapid virologic response (RVR) rate at week 4 was 81.8% (18/22), the rate of undetectable virus at the time of drug withdrawal (Epoint) was 86.4% (19/22), the rate of sustained virologic response at 12 weeks after drug withdrawal (SVR12) was 81.8%, and the rate of sustained virological response at 24 weeks after drug withdrawal (SVR24) was 81.8%; 1 patient in this group experienced recurrence. All 40 patients in the DAA group were previously untreated patients (33 patients without liver cirrhosis and 7 patients with compensated liver cirrhosis), with an overall RVR rate of 87.5%(35/40), an Epoint rate of 100%, and an SVR12 rate of 100%, and there was no treatment failure or recurrence. Although different DAA regimens had different RVR rates, they all had a SVR12 rate of 100%. The patients with compensated liver cirrhosis and other diseases had a SVR12 rate of 100%. Conclusion Intravenous drug addiction is the main route of infection for patients with genotype 6 CHC in Guangxi, and CHC is more common in men, with genotype 6a as the main subtype. DAA treatment has a higher virologic response rate than interferon treatment, with an SVR12 rate of 100%. There is no significant difference in SVR12 rate between the patients with compensated liver cirrhosis and those without liver cirrhosis.

		                        			Objective:To construct and validate a risk prediction model for work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) among nurses, so as to provide a scientific and objective reference tool for the screening of high-risk groups of WMSDs among nurses.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. From March to July 2021, convenience sampling was used to select 1 050 nurses from 25 hospitals in Beijing as the research subject. The risk factors for WMSDs were evaluated by issuing the Musculoskeletal Disease Questionnaire. All survey subjects were randomly divided into the training set ( n=715) and the validation set ( n=304) according to the ratio of 7∶3, and the training set was used to build the model. The predictive ability of the risk model was evaluated using the area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and the validation set was used for validation. A total of 1 050 questionnaires were distributed and 1 019 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a valid recovery rate of 97.05%. Results:Among 1 019 nurses, the weekly incidence of WMSDs was 84.0% (856/1 019) and the annual incidence was 86.7% (883/1 019) . The neck was the site with the highest incidence of WMSDs, the weekly incidence and annual incidence were 70.3% (716/1 019) and 70.1% (714/1 019) , respectively. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors of the weekly incidence of WMSDs among nurses included age ≥40 years old ( P<0.001) , tense work atmosphere ( P<0.001) , forward neck posture ( P=0.002) , doing the same job daily ( P=0.039) , needing to dealing with patients ( P=0.012) and keeping the back in the same posture for a long time ( P=0.002) , and the risk factors of the annual incidence of WMSDs among nurses included age ≥40 years old ( P=0.001) , did not participation in safety protection training ( P=0.003) , high education ( P=0.041) , stressful work atmosphere ( P=0.005) , significantly forward neck posture ( P=0.008) , needing to dealing with patients frequently ( P=0.001) , work involving cold or temperature changes ( P=0.017) , insufficient rest time ( P=0.019) , frequent shift change ( P=0.035) , frequent repetition of the same action of the trunk at work ( P=0.025) , hand bending ( P=0.006) . Based on the above screening variables, a nomogram model was established to predict the risk of weekly and annual incidence of WMSDs among nurses, and the AUC values of the model in the training set were 0.794 [95% CI: (0.750-0.838) ] and 0.789 [95% CI: (0.718-0.860) ], respectively. The validation set further confirmed the predictive ability of the nomogram model. The AUC values for predicting the risk of weekly and annual incidence of WMSDs among nurses were 0.782 [95% CI: (0.729-0.835) ] and 0.794 [95% CI: (0.721-0.868) ], respectively. Conclusions:The nomogram model has good predictive ability for the occurrence risk of WMSDs among nurses, which can help to screen high-risk groups and give effective intervention in time.

		                        			Ego-depletion is a phenomenon in which an individual's cognitive, emotional and behavioral control ability or willingness declines after long-term self-control. Patients with chronic diseases need to change their lifestyles for a long time, understand and master the knowledge of the disease, and they are prone to self-depletion after diagnosis. This paper summarized the research progress of ego-depletion in patients with chronic diseases through the concept of ego-depletion, subjective measurement tools, and the current research status of ego-depletion in patients with chronic diseases, and provided inspiration for future research directions, with a view to providing ideas for further research on ego-depletion in patients with chronic diseases.
