Objective To explore the task-state electroencephalogram(EEG)characteristics of working memory in patients with post-stroke aphasia(PSA). Methods From September,2020 to February,2021,a total of eight patients with PSA(PSA group)and eight healthy adults(HC group)were recruited to collect EEG and memory scale data.The EEG data of working memory task-states were used to analyze the characteristics of the EEG frequency band indicators in time domain event-related potentials(ERP)and frequency;and the correlation with the items in the memory scale. Results Finally,five patients and five controls were included.N1 and P2 components were induced in the frontal area,and P300 components were induced in the parieto-occipital area.Compared with HC group,the activation of N1 and P2 increased in central prefrontal region,while the activity of P300 decreased in the right parieto-occipital re-gion in PSA group(|t|>2.193,P<0.05).The energy of theta band decreased in the right prefrontal region and the central parieto-occipital region,the energy of alpha1 band decreased in the left parieto-occipital region,and the energy of gamma band increased in the left central region(t>2.398,P<0.05).The energy of gamma band correlated with immediate recall(r = 0.914,P = 0.030)and correct recognition(r = 0.931,P = 0.022)of Auditory Verbal Learning Test,and inverting(r = 0.924,P = 0.025)and anterograde(r = 0.889,P = 0.044)of Digit Span Test. Conclusion Visual working memory task can activate the compensatory processing activity of memory related brain re-gions after PSA,which can be used as an objective indication for the evaluation of PSA working memory related research.There is close relationship between language impairment and working memory.

With the rapid development of information technology, research on ancient TCM books has shifted from the traditional collation and digitization into intelligent knowledge service, thereby achieving the deep integration of ancient TCM books collation and clinical needs. Based on the clinical problem and knowledge element theory, we implemented in-depth indexing and knowledge mining for 600 kinds of ancient TCM books, built a knowledge sharing service platform for ancient TCM books by integrating database, cloud platform, knowledge graph and other technologies, and carried out the thematic literature research and developed databases for four major diseases including stroke, heart failure, liver cirrhosis, and diabetes. The digital intelligence products have been applied in hundreds of hospitals for evaluation and feedback. Finally, through "digital processing plus intelligent application", the two-way interaction between ancient TCM books and current clinical practice is realized, and the path and paradigm of ancient TCM books knowledge serving the modern prevention and control of major diseases is formed, providing reference for the innovative utilization of ancient TCM books.

Objective:To assess the methodological and measurement quality of comprehensive assessment tools for evaluating senile dementia, in order to provide evidence-based guidance for clinical selection of the best assessment tool.Methods:Manually searched CNKI, Wanfang Database, VIP Database, SinoMed, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, ProQuest, Ovid and Scopus databases to collect and evaluate comprehensive assessment tool measurements forsenile dementia. For research on academic attributes, the search time limit was from the establishment of the database to January 4th, 2024. Two researchers independently screened the literature and extracted information, used the COSMIN guidelines to evaluate the included assessment tools, and formed final recommendations.Results:A total of 14 articles were included, including 9 comprehensive assessment tools for the elderly with dementia. Among them, the Care Needs Assessment Scale for Alzheimer′s Disease Patients had moderate and above evidence proving that its content validity and internal consistency were "sufficient", so it was a category A strong recommendation. The remaining 8 evaluation tools were all category B recommendations.Conclusions:Among the existing comprehensive assessment tools for the elderly with dementia, the Care Needs Assessment Scale for Alzheimer′s Disease Patients has good reliability and validity. This scale has 4 dimensions and 16 items. However, there are uncertainties and unmentioned measurement properties of the scale in terms of cross-cultural validity/measurement equivalence, stability, measurement error, hypothesis testing, calibration validity, and responsiveness. More evidence is needed in the future to further comprehensively validate and improve it, providing a basis for selecting a more effective, comprehensive and high-quality comprehensive assessment tool for the elderly with dementia.

Objective:To assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of Omalizumab for treating pediatric allergic asthma in real world in China.Methods:The clinical data of children aged 6 to 11 years with allergic asthma who received Omalizumab treatment in 17 hospitals in China between July 6, 2018 and September 30, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Such information as the demographic characteristics, allergic history, family history, total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels, specific IgE levels, skin prick test, exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) levels, eosinophil (EOS) counts, and comorbidities at baseline were collected.Descriptive analysis of the Omalizumab treatment mode was made, and the difference in the first dose, injection frequency and course of treatment between the Omalizumab treatment mode and the mode recommended in the instruction was investigated.Global Evaluation of Treatment Effectiveness (GETE) analysis was made after Omalizumab treatment.The moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) dose, lung functions were compared before and after Omalizumab treatment.Changes in the Childhood Asthma Control Test (C-ACT) and Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) results from baseline to 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 52 weeks after Omalizumab treatment were studied.The commodity improvement was assessed.The adverse event (AE) and serious adverse event (SAE) were analyzed for the evaluation of Omalizumab treatment safety.The difference in the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation and ICS reduction was investigated by using t test.The significance level was set to 0.05.Other parameters were all subject to descriptive analysis.A total of 200 allergic asthma patients were enrolled, including 75.5% ( n=151) males and 24.5% ( n=49) females.The patients aged (8.20±1.81) years. Results:The median total IgE level of the 200 patients was 513.5 (24.4-11 600.0) IU/mL.Their median treatment time with Omalizumab was 112 (1-666) days.Their first dose of Omalizumab was 300 (150-600) mg.Of the 200 cases, 114 cases (57.0%) followed the first Omalizumab dosage recommended in the instruction.After 4-6 months of Omalizumab treatment, 88.5% of the patients enrolled ( n=117) responded to Omalizumab.After 4 weeks of treatment with Omalizumab, asthma was well-controlled, with an increased C-ACT score [from (22.70±3.70) points to (18.90±3.74) points at baseline]. Four-six months after Omalizumab administration, the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation had a reduction of (2.00±5.68) per patient year( t=4.702 5, P<0.001), the median ICS daily dose was lowered [0 (0-240) μg vs. 160 (50-4 000) μg at baseline] ( P<0.001), the PAQLQ score was improved [(154.90±8.57) points vs. (122.80±27.15) points at baseline], and the forced expiratory volume in one second % predicted (FEV 1%pred) was increased [(92.80±10.50)% vs. (89.70±18.17)% at baseline]. In patients with available evaluations for comorbidities, including allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis or eczema, urticaria, allergic conjunctivitis and sinusitis, 92.8%-100.0% showed improved symptoms.A total of 124 AE were reported in 58 (29.0%) of the 200 patients, and the annual incidence was 0(0-15.1) per patient year.In 53 patients who suffered AE, 44 patients (83.0%) and 9 patients (17.0%) reported mild and moderate AE, respectively.No severe AE were observed in patients.The annual incidence of SAE was 0(0-1.9) per patient year.Most common drug-related AE were abdominal pain (2 patients, 1.0%) and fever (2 patients, 1.0%). No patient withdrew Omalizumab due to AE. Conclusions:Omalizumab shows good effectiveness and safety for the treatment of asthma in children.It can reduce the moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, reduce the ICS dose, improve asthma control levels, and improve lung functions and quality of life of patients.

Autologous ozonized blood transfusion(AOBT) is a therapy of re-transfusion of 100-200 mL of autologous blood after shaking and agitation with appropriate amount of oxygen-ozone in vitro. The oxidation of blood through the strong oxidation of ozone can enhance the non-specific immune response of the body, regulate the internal environment and promote health. This therapy has been increasingly applied in clinical practice, while no unified standard for the operation process in terms of ozone concentration, treatment frequency and treatment course had been established. This operation process of AOBT is primarily explored in order to standardize the operation process and ensure its safety and efficacy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the abnormal changes of gray matter structure covariant network in post-stroke aphasia (PSA) patients. MethodsFrom June, 2019 to March, 2022, 15 PSA patients (patient group) from Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine and Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were recruited, as well as 15 healthy subjects (control group). Their brain structure magnetic resonance imaging data were collected. The brain covariant network was constructed based on gray matter volume correlation, and graph theory analysis method was used to evaluate the global and node network level topology properties of structural covariant network. The differences of gray matter covariant network properties between patients and controls were compared. ResultsThere was no significant difference in the global network level topology properties between two groups (P > 0.05). At the nodal level, compared with the control group, the betweenness decreased in the right middle frontal gyrus, right posterior cingulate gyrus, right amygdala, left middle occipital gyrus, and increased in the right inferior frontal gyrus and the right suboccipital gyrus of the insula operculum (P < 0.05); the node degree decreased in the left superior frontal gyrus, left anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyrus, left hippocampus and left amygdala, while it increased in the right inferior frontal gyrus, left supplementary motor area, right superior occipital gyrus, right inferior occipital gyrus, and right lentiform pallidus (P < 0.05); the node efficiency decreased in the left anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyrus, left hippocampus, left amygdala, left temporal pole: superior temporal gyrus, and increased in the inferior frontal gyrus of right insula, left supplementary motor area and right suboccipital gyrus (P < 0.05). ConclusionThe abnormal reduction of node network properties in some brain regions in the left hemisphere of PSA patients may be a characteristic structural covariation pattern, and there may be some compensation in the right hemisphere of the structural network in some brain regions.

Parkinson′s disease (PD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder typically known for characteristic loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra striatum. To date, therapeutic approaches for PD are still lacking due to the multifactorial etiology and complicated pathogenesis. Thus, the studies relative to the biological mechanisms and drug development of PD are the hotspot in this field. In recent years, numerous studies suggest that the PD is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction which is affected by multiple genes regulation. Genome-wide association studies have proved that monogenic PD gene locus is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction. Although there are many studies on how PD pathogenic genes regulate mitochondrial dysfunction then affect neuronal physiological function and ultimately lead to the PD, the effects of mutations in PD-associated genes on mitochondrial dysfunction remain not fully understood. In this review, the literature discussing the mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction in the context of PD was summarized with the aim to implicate the potential opportunities for therapeutically targeting mitochondria.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of non-mitogenic acid fibroblast growth factor 1( NMFGF1) on diabetic cardiomyopathy ( DCM) by using PEG-modified nano-liposomes combined with ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction technique ( UTMD ) . Methods The NMFGF1 loaded PEG-modified nano-liposomes were prepared by a water-in-water emulsion method and their quality inspections were also investigated. Type 1 diabetes animal model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin ( 70 mg/kg) in male SD rats. The diabetic rats were raised twelve weeks after the diabetes model was established and DCM rats were selected by ultrasonic heart function examination. After two weeks of intervention, all rats were kept for another two weeks and then underwent transthoracic echocardiography examination. The rats were sacrificed and myocardial tissue was obtained to quantify myocardial collagen fraction ( CVF ) and cardiac myocyte apoptotic index by Sirius red staining and TUNEL staining. Results NMFGF1-loaded PEG-nano-liposomes showed a good morphology and 90.3%± 1.4% NMFGF1 encapsulation efficiency. Compared with DCM group, NMFGF1group, and NMFGF1-PEG-nano-liposomes group, NMFGF1-loaded PEG-nano-liposome plus UTMD group showed increased left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVIDd) [(7.36±0.42) vs (5.75±0.24), (6.64±0.27), (6.72±0.24)mm, all P<0.05]and leftventricularfractionshortening(LVFS) [(50±3) vs (33±2), (44±5), (43±3)mm, all P<0.05], and decreased left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPW) [(1.65±0.07) vs (1.89±0.08), (1.73±0.11), (1.73 ±0.07) mm, all P<0.05], with decreased CVF and apoptotic index(all P<0.05). Conclusion PEG-nano-liposomes combining with UTMD technique has a greater translational potential in the delivery of NMFGF1 for the treatment of DCM by attenuating oxidative stress-induced injury and may provide a promising strategy for treating diabetes cardiomyopathy.
