Heart failure is a common frequently-occurring disease, and it is the terminal stage of the development of various heart diseases. The pathogenesis is very complex and seriously endangers human health. A large number of studies have shown that Ca2+/Calmodulin dependent protein kinase II(CaMKII) plays an important role in the occurrence and development of heart failure. Traditional Chinese medicine has unique advantages and good prospects in the prevention and treatment of heart failure. Among them, there are many compound and their active ingredients can target and regulate CaMKII. This paper mainly expounds the mechanism of the CaMKII signaling pathway in the failing heart and the research progress of traditional Chinese medicine in preventing and treating heart failure by targeting the regulation of CaMKII signaling in recent years, in order to provide reference and expand ideas for clinical traditional Chinese medicine prevention and treatment in heart failure.

Background:
In China, secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCR) has been widely used in ovarian cancer (OC) over the past two decades. Although Gynecologic Oncology Group-0213 trial did not show its overall survival benefit in first relapsed patients, the questions on patient selection and effect of subsequent targeting therapy are still open. The preliminary data from our pre-SOC1 phase II study showed that selected patients with second relapse who never received SCR at recurrence may still benefit from surgery. Moreover, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) maintenance now has been a standard care for platinum sensitive relapsed OC. To our knowledge, no published or ongoing trial is trying to answer the question if patient can benefit from a potentially complete resection combined with PARPi maintenance in OC patients with secondary recurrence.
Methods
SOC-3 is a multi-center, open, randomized, controlled, phase II trial of SCR followed by chemotherapy and niraparib maintenance vs chemotherapy and niraparib maintenance in patients with platinum-sensitive second relapsed OC who never received SCR at recurrence. To guarantee surgical quality, if the sites had no experience of participating in any OC-related surgical trials, the number of recurrent lesions evaluated by central-reviewed positron emission tomography–computed tomography image shouldn't be more than 3. Eligible patients are randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either SCR followed by 6 cyclesof platinum-based chemotherapy and niraparib maintenance or 6 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy and niraparib maintenance alone. Patients who undergo at least 4 cycles of chemotherapy and must be, in the opinion of the investigator, without disease progression, will be assigned niraparib maintenance. Major inclusion criteria are secondary relapsed OC with a platinum-free interval of no less than 6 months and a possibly complete resection. Major exclusion criteria are borderline tumors and non-epithelial ovarian malignancies, received debulking surgery at recurrence and impossible to complete resection. The sample size is 96 patients. Primary endpoint is 12-month non-progression rate.

Background:
Two randomized phase III trials (EORTC55971 and CHORUS) showed similar progression-free and overall survival in primary or interval debulking surgery in ovarian cancer, however both studies had limitations with lower rate of complete resection and lack of surgical qualifications for participating centers. There is no consensus on whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery (NACT-IDS) could be a preferred approach in the management of advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) in the clinical practice.
Methods
The Asian SUNNY study is an open-label, multicenter, randomized controlled, phase III trial to compare the effect of primary debulking surgery (PDS) to NACT-IDS in stages IIIC and IV EOC, fallopian tube cancer (FTC) or primary peritoneal carcinoma (PPC).The hypothesis is that PDS enhances the survivorship when compared with NACT-IDS in advanced ovarian cancer. The primary objective is to clarify the role of PDS and NACT-IDS in the treatment of advanced ovarian cancer. Surgical quality assures include at least 50% of no gross residual (NGR) in PDS group in all centers and participating centers should be national cancer centers or designed ovarian cancer section or those with the experience participating surgical trials of ovarian cancer. Any participating center should be monitored evaluating the proportions of NGR by a training set. The aim of the surgery in both arms is maximal cytoreduction. Tumor burden of the disease is evaluated by diagnostic laparoscopy or positron emission tomography/computed tomography scan. Patients assigned to PDS group will undergo upfront maximal cytoreductive surgery within 3 weeks after biopsy, followed by 6 cycles of standard adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients assigned to NACT group will undergo 3 cycles of NACT-IDS, and subsequently 3 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy. The maximal time interval between IDS and the initiation of adjuvant chemotherapy is 8 weeks. Major inclusion criteria are pathologic confirmed stage IIIC and IV EOC, FTC or PPC; ECOG performance status of 0 to 2; ASA score of 1 to 2. Major exclusion criteria are non-epithelial tumors as well as borderline tumors; low-grade carcinoma; mucinous ovarian cancer. The sample size is 456 subjects. Primary endpoint is overall survival.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of the ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential on three different eye positions and to explore the appropriate eye position for oVEMP.Methods:15 patients (30 ears) with vertigo who underwent oVEMP test from December 2017 to May 2018 were selected as the patient group, including seven males and eight females, with an average age of (51±13) years. Another 22 (44 ears) healthy young people were recruited into the control group, including 10 males and 12 females, with an average age of (23±5) years. oVEMPs were measured on the following three eye positions respectively: 30 degrees straight up(upper median position),45 degrees upper right(upper right position), and 45 degrees upper left(upper left position). oVEMP elicitation rate, oVEMP latencies, amplitudes and interaural amplitude asymmetry ratio were analyzed by SPSS 23.0 statistical software.Results:There was no statistical significance ( P>0.05) in the oVEMP elicitation rate, oVEMP latency, amplitude and asymmetry ratio on the three eye positions among the control group, the patient group and the overall subjects. Conclusions:The three eye positions can be used to detect oVEMP in clinic. There is no difference in the extraction rate and waveform characteristics. When one of the eye positions is difficult to gaze or not easy to obtain the coincidence curve, the other two can be used to obtain the ideal oVEMP curves as well.
