Acute lung injury (ALI) is a common and highly lethal clinical syndrome characterized by acute progressive respiratory failure. Currently, the treatment of ALI primarily involves respiratory support therapy and symptomatic pharmacotherapy, yet there is still a lack of specific and effective pharmacological treatments. Qingwen Baidu decoction is a traditional Chinese medicine formula that has the effects of clearing heat, removing toxin, cooling blood, and purging fire. Its pharmacological effects include anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, antibacterial, antiviral, sedative, and so on. The flavonoids, phenols, terpenes, and other components contained in this formula have strong pharmacological activity, which can regulate the inflammatory response caused and oxidative stress in ALI and maintain the integrity of alveolar-capillary barrier (ACB) by anti-apoptosis, anti-pathogen infection, and anti-pulmonary fibrosis, thereby improving the pathological changes of lung tissue. Among them, flavonoids have been reported more, and their mechanism of action is complex and diverse. For example, quercetin, luteolin, and baicalin act on multiple important targets, such as signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), mitogen-activated protein kinase 3 (MAPK3), etc. and participate in the regulation of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation primary response 88 (MyD88)/nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)/Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1), and silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1)/forkhead box protein O1 (FoxO1) signaling pathways, thereby intervening in pathological events such as inflammation, oxidative stress, cell apoptosis, and fibrosis. This paper aims to review the research progress on Qingwen Baidu decoction and its active ingredients in the prevention and treatment of lung injury in the expectation of providing reference for its subsequent pharmacological mechanism research and theoretical support for its clinical application and drug development in the treatment of ALI.

Objective:To evaluate the real-world short-term effectiveness of ixekizumab in the treatment of psoriasis, and to investigate factors influencing the effectiveness.Methods:Baseline data and short-term effectiveness evaluation results were retrospectively collected from patients with psoriasis, who received ixekizumab treatment in Department of Dermatology, Xiangya Hospital from November 2019 to September 2021. A descriptive analysis was performed on the baseline characteristics of patients, continuous data were described as median (lower quartile, upper quartile), and categorical data were described as percentages. Comparisons of disease severity scores before and after the treatment with ixekizumab were performed using Wilcoxon signed-rank test or paired McNemar test. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore factors influencing the effectiveness of 4-week ixekizumab treatment.Results:A total of 118 patients with psoriasis were included, including 94 males and 24 females, and their age [ M ( Q1, Q3) ] was 43.4 (32.5, 53.0) years; plaque psoriasis (99 cases, 83.9%) and severe psoriasis (72 cases, 68.6%) predominated among the 118 patients, and skin lesions were mainly located on the scalp (59/116, 50.9%). Among the 49 patients who had received 2-week ixekizumab treatment, 27 (55.1%) achieved a 50% improvement in the psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) score (PASI50) ; after 4-week treatment, 44 (89.8%), 30 (61.2%), 13 (26.5%) and 10 (20.4%) patients achieved PASI50/75/90/100 respectively, and their PASI scores (2.1 [1.1, 7.1]), involved body surface area (3.9% [0.5%, 14.5%]), dermatology life quality index scores (1.0 [0.0, 2.0]) and physician global assessment (PGA) scores (1.0 [1.0, 3.0]) were significantly lower than the corresponding scores at baseline (12.4 [8.8, 23.2], 22.0% [11.3%, 43.4%], 6.0 [3.0, 11.0], 4.0 [3.0, 5.0], respectively; all P < 0.001]. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the baseline body mass index was significantly associated with the PASI75 response rate ( OR = 0.814, 95% CI: 0.659 - 0.958, P = 0.029) and the proportion of patients with PGA0/1 ( OR = 0.743, 95% CI: 0.562 - 0.917, P = 0.017) after 4-week ixekizumab treatment, and the baseline BSA score was significantly associated with the proportion of patients with PGA0/1 after 4-week ixekizumab treatment ( OR = 0.924, 95% CI: 0.870 - 0.968, P = 0.003) . Conclusion:The 4-week ixekizumab treatment significantly decreased the severity of psoriasis, and may be more effective in patients with lower disease severity and lower body mass index at baseline.

Rapid and accurate recognition of human action and road condition is a foundation and precondition of implementing self-control of intelligent prosthesis. In this paper, a Gaussian mixture model and hidden Markov model are used to recognize the road condition and human motion modes based on the inertial sensor in artificial limb (lower limb). Firstly, the inertial sensor is used to collect the acceleration, angle and angular velocity signals in the direction of , and axes of lower limbs. Then we intercept the signal segment with the time window and eliminate the noise by wavelet packet transform, and the fast Fourier transform is used to extract the features of motion. Then the principal component analysis (PCA) is carried out to remove redundant information of the features. Finally, Gaussian mixture model and hidden Markov model are used to identify the human motion modes and road condition. The experimental results show that the recognition rate of routine movement (walking, running, riding, uphill, downhill, up stairs and down stairs) is 96.25%, 92.5%, 96.25%, 91.25%, 93.75%, 88.75% and 90% respectively. Compared with the support vector machine (SVM) method, the results show that the recognition rate of our proposed method is obviously higher, and it can provide a new way for the monitoring and control of the intelligent prosthesis in the future.

Objective To explore the effects of comprehensive nurisng intervention on prenventing incontinence-associated dermatitis in patients with consciousness disorder,and to provide effective prevention methods accordingly. Methods Patients with consciousness disorder and fecal incontinence who were admitted by a Grade Ⅱ general hospital between April 2015 and December 2016 were selected and randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group. Patients in the control group received stool drainage with anal tracheal catheter with aerocyst connected to drainage bags,while patients in the intervention group received comprehensive nurisng,including disposable drainage with stoma bags,skin protection with liquid dressing and stoma bag rinsing with 0.9% sodium chloride solution. Results The patients in the control group were nursed for(62.00±6.41)min a day,while the patients in the intervention group were nursed for(47.00±5.26) min a day. The patients in the intervention group needed shorter nursing time than the patients in the control group(t=4.24,P<0.01). The incidence of incontinence-associated dermatitis of the patients in the intervention group(26.92%)was lower than that of the patients in the control group(47.83%)(χ2=4.59,P < 0.05). Conclusions Comprehensive nurisng can reduce the incidence of incontinence-associated dermatitis in patients with mental disorder.
