It is believed that the pathogenesis of oculomotor nerve palsy is insufficient marrow sea （髓海）， withered yang qi， poor contraction of eyelids and periocular meridians， and inability to open and close the eyes. The eye system is connected to the marrow sea， as well as the the foot taiyang （太阳） channel， foot yangming （阳明） channel， foot jueyin （厥阴） channel， yinqiao mai （阴跷脉） and yangqiao mai （阳跷脉）， and is nourished by the liver， spleen and kidney. Treatment should take into account both the branch and the root cause. It is suggested to treat the root by regulating the marrow sea， and treat the branch by unblocking the meridians and dredging the collaterals， thereby balancing the mild and the urgency of the yinqiao mai and yangqiao mai. Using the "Gen （根）-Liu（溜）-Zhu （注）-Ru （入）"acupoints to bypass the various meridians and taking the gallbladder meridian according to twelve major meridians that run on both sides of the body， both of which can provide ideas for improving symptoms such as ptosis and limited eye movement caused by oculomotor nerve palsy.

Objective To compare the effects of different statistical protocols on the results of external quality assessment(EQA)of se-men,and select appropriate statistical protocols for the promotion of EQA of semen.Methods Taking sperm concentration as an ex-ample,the semen EQA data of 20 laboratories in Hunan Province in 2022 were selected,and the advantages and disadvantages of the traditional statistical scheme(TSS),robust statistical scheme(RSS)and traditional statistical scheme after eliminating the"outliers"(TSEOS)combined with robust statistical technology were analyzed and compared.Results The"outliers"could not be excluded from the sperm concentration data of the four groups in the TSS,which led to the difference between TSS and RSS or TSEOS.The num-ber of qualified laboratories for TSS and RSS were 19 vs 16,19 vs 16,19 vs 19,and 19 vs 19,respectively.Conclusion The results of RSS are similar to those of TSEOS.Compared with TSS,RSS do not need to remove outlier data steps,and are more suitable for se-men EQA data analysis with small data volume.

Myocardial infarction promotes cardiac remodeling and myocardial fibrosis, thus leading to cardiac dysfunction or heart failure. Peiminine has been regarded as a traditional anti-fibrotic Chinese medicine in pulmonary fibrosis. However, the role of peiminine in myocardial infarction-induced myocardial injury and fibrosis remained elusive. Firstly, rat model of myocardial infarction was established using ligation of the left coronary artery, which were then intraperitoneally injected with 2 or 5 mg/kg peiminine once a day for 4 weeks. Echocardiography and haemodynamic evaluation results showed that peiminine treatment reduced left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, and enhanced maximum rate of increase/decrease of left ventricle pressure (± dP/dt max) and left ventricular systolic pressure, which ameliorate the cardiac function. Secondly, myocardial infarction-induced myocardial injury and infarct size were also attenuated by peiminine. Moreover, peiminine inhibited myocardial infarction-induced increase of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α production, as well as the myocardial cell apoptosis, in the rats. Thirdly, peiminine also decreased the myocardial fibrosis related protein expression including collagen I and collagen III. Lastly, peiminine reduced the expression of p38 and phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 in rat model of myocardial infarction. In conclusion, peiminine has a cardioprotective effect against myocardial infarction-induced myocardial injury and fibrosis, which can be attributed to the inactivation of mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway.

OBJECTIVE: To screen for Vel- rare blood type donors and determine the frequency of SMIM1 c.64_80del allele in Yili Prefecture of Xinjiang, China. METHODS: DNA pooling and PCR-sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) was conducted to screen individuals carrying the SMIM1 c.64_80del variant, and Sanger sequencing of SMIM1 exon 3 was carried out to verify the genotype of those with the variation. SMIM1 intron 2 was also sequenced to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that may affect the expression of Vel antigen. RESULTS: Among 3328 blood donors, 14 were identified as heterozygotes for the SMIM1 c.64_80del allele, its allele frequency was 0.21%; no homozygous SMIM1 c.64_80 deletions was found. For SNP rs1175550, all of the 14 individuals had an AA genotype, among whom 5 carried heterozygous 7111ins GCA variant in intron 2. CONCLUSION The allelic frequency of SMIM1 c.64_80del in Yili area is approximately 0.21%, which is reported for the first time.

Objective:To investigate the expression of CDK6 and FOXM1 in peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), and its correlation with clinicopathologic features and patient prognosis.Methods:The Oncomine was used for data mining and analyzing the expression levels of CDK6 and FOXM1 in PTCL. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) of EnVision method was used to detect the expression of CDK6 and FOXM1 proteins in 166 cases of PTCL diagnosed at Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from January 2016 to December 2018, and 30 cases of lymph node with reactive hyperplasia as control.Results:Among the PTCL patients, 104 were male and 62 were female, aged from 3 to 85 years, with an average age of 53 years. Analyses of the Oncomine 4.5 database showed that mRNA expression of CDK6 and FOXM1 in PTCL tissues was significantly higher than that in normal tissue ( P<0.05). IHC staining showed the positive rates of CDK6 and FOXM1 proteins in PTCL tissues were 27.7% (46/166) and 80.7% (134/166), respectively. The expression was mainly present in the nuclei of tumor cells, showing a diffuse, strongly positive pattern. The positive rates of CDK6 and FOXM1 proteins among the 30 cases of lymph-node reactive hyperplasia were 0 (0/30) and 30% (9/30), respectively. The expression of FOXM1 was mainly found in the lymphoid follicle germinal center, and not present in the T-zone cells. CDK6 protein, FOXM1 protein and the co-expression of CDK6 and FOXM1 proteins in PTCL were associated with higher Ann Arbor staging and international prognostication index score ( P<0.05), and inversely associated with overall survival ( P<0.05). Meanwhile, CDK6 protein expression was positively correlated with FOXM1 protein expression ( P<0.05). Conclusions:CDK6 and FOXM1 may be new targets for the diagnosis and treatment of PTCL. The overexpression of CDK6 may lead to enhanced function of the transcription factor FOXM1, while the overexpression of CDK6 and FOXM1 also promotes the development and progression of PTCL.

Cervical adenosarcoma is a very rare type of Mullerian adenosarcoma and it is easily confused with benign polyps, therefore, differential diagnosis is necessary. The primary clinical symptoms are vaginal abnormal bleeding and abdominal pain, which can be prevented through the study of high-risk factors. Surgery excision has been considered as the main treatment at present. Due to the low incidence of cervical adenosarcoma, its etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment need to be discussed further. This paper reviews the diagnosis and treatment progress of cervical adenosarcoma.

Objective To translate the International Consultation on Incontinence Modular Questionnaire for Male Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (ICIQ-MLUTS) and ICIQ-MLUTS long form (ICIQ-MLUTS LF) into Chinese and assess their metric properties and applicability.Methods After obtaining permission from the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire (ICIQ),original ICIQ-MLUTS and ICIQ-MLUTS LF were translated into Chinese according to ICIQ validation protocol and cultural adaptation guideline.During November 2017 to August 2018,Chinese version of ICIQ-MLUTS and ICIQ-MLUTS LF were tested by administering them in 6 and 12 hospitals in China respectively.To validate the translated questionnaires,the following tests were undertaken.The content validity was determined by indepth interviews with participants and experts.The correlation coefficients of ICIQ-MLUTS and ICIQ-MLUTS LF with International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) were assessed to validate criterion validity.Cronbach's alpha test was used to explore internal consistency.And the test-retest reliability was evaluated by calculation of intraclass correlation coefficient.Results In total,Chinese ICIQ-MLUTS and ICIQ-MLUTS LF were administrated to 135 and 230 male patients with lower urinary tract symptoms respectively.Both questionnaires had good content validity and good criterion validity with IPSS (Pearson correlation 0.846 and 0.833 for ICIQ-MLUTS and ICIQ-MLUTS LF respectively,both P ＜ 0.001).The Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.797 for ICIQ-MLUTS,and 0.853 for ICIQ-MLUTS LF.Intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.986 and 0.985 respectively (both P ＜ 0.001),showing good test-retest reliability.Conclusions The Chinese version of ICIQ-MLUTS and ICIQ-MLUTS LF had good validity and reliability,which can be used to assess Chinese male patients with lower urinary tract symptoms.

Objective    To investigate the effect of multidisciplinary team (MDT) on perioperative complications and clinical efficacy of patients who were receiver radical operation to treat lung cancer by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Methods    Eighty patients in the Thoracic Surgery Department of First Hospital of Lanzhou University from December 2017 to February 2019 who were diagnosed lung cancer were divided into two groups. Forty patients in the MDT group were treated with MDT discussion. The control group consisted of 40 patients who were treated without MDT discussion. The incidence of postoperative complications and clinical efficacy were compared between the two groups . Results    There was no statistical difference in incision infection, atelectasis, pleural effusion and pulmonary leakage between the two groups. However, the incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection (5% vs. 20%, P=0.043) and the overall postoperative complications (17.5% vs. 42.5%, P=0.015) in the MDT group was lower than that in the control group with a statistical difference. In the MDT group, the operative time (140.3±8.0 min vs. 148.8±6.8 min, P<0.001), intraoperative bleeding ( 207.8±19.4 mL vs. 222.0±28.3 mL, P=0.010), lymph node dissection number (25.1±6.2 vs. 20.1±7.0, P=0.001), postoperative drainage (273.0±33.5 mL vs. 24.0±52.5 mL, P<0.001), drainage duration (81.9±6.1 h vs. 85.3±8.1 h, P=0.039), pain on the first day after surgery (4.6±0.7 vs. 5.4±0.7), P<0.001), pain on the second day (2.5±0.7 vs.  3.0±0.8, P=0.002), pain on the third day (1.1±0.8 vs. 1.5±0.6, P=0.014), postoperative activity time (40.7±6.7 h vs. 35.3±7.1 h, P<0.001), postoperative recovery time (6.8±0.9 d vs. 7.4±0.7 d, P=0.003), patient satisfaction (8.1±1.4 vs. 7.2±2.0, P=0.020) were significantly better than those of the control group with statistical differences. But there was no statistical difference in the conversion to thoracotomy between the two group. Conclusion    MDT discussion can reduce the surgical risk and postoperative complications, improve the clinical efficacy and accelerate the postoperative rehabilitation of patients, which has a good clinical significance.

Objective To characterize the urinary microbial profile of male non-muscle invasive bladder cancer patients compared to healthy controls.Methods Between March,2017 and September,2017,mid-stream urine from 26 non-muscle invasive bladder cancer and 18 non-neoplastic controls were collected by the clean method,then centrifuged and processed for 16S rRNA gene sequencing.Sequencing reads were processed for evaluating alpha diversity and beta diversity using QIIME.LEfSe algorithm was performed to identify potential bacterial genera biomarker.Results The smoking cases were more in tumor group than those in control group(21 vs.7,P ＜ 0.01).The urinary microenvironment of bladder cancer was characterized by increased bacterial richness (Observed species index,Chaol index and Ace index,125.77 ± 69.64 vs.80.38 ± 46.24;142.82 ± 76.74 vs.90.68 ± 47.62;and 147.92 ± 77.68 vs.88.19 ± 45.38,all P ＜ 0.05) and by the enrichment of some bacterial genera (e.g.,Acinetobacter and Anaerococcus).Significant difference in β diversity was found between cancer and non-cancer group (ANOSIM,P =O.009).A clear hierarchical clustering of cancer samples was observed,suggesting a common dysbiosis associated to bladder cancer.Conclusions Patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer exhibit a different microbial community compared to non-neoplastic controls,suggesting a possible pathophysiological correlation between microbiome and bladder cancer.Urinary microbial community may be associated with the prognosis of NMIBC.

Objective To explore the value of BI-RADS scoring system based on the sonographic features in the breast nodules.Methods In order to build a Logistic regression model,regression was made to analyse 401 patients ' sonographic features of breast nodules.A scoring system was developed based on the results of regression's filter and the weight of each factor,used to score and classify the other 243 patients.It's diagnostic value was evaluated through comparing all types of theoretic risk ranges of BI-RADS.Results Age,morphology,orientation,margin,echo pattern and microcalcifications in a mass were selected in the final step of the logistic regression analysis.By means of scoring system,the scores corresponding to BI-RADS 3,4a,4b,4c,5 classes are 6,7-8,9-15,16-22 and ≥23 respectively.Case study comprehensive score of BI-RADS 3-5 classification' s positive predictive values were 0,4.17％,21.43％,84.85％,1 00％,and the area under the ROC curve scoring system was 0.947.Conclusions The scoring system can objectively score and classify breast nodules,and therefore provide an effective reference for clinical evaluation of benign and malignant breast.
