In order to promote the innovative application of Sanjiao theory and Yingwei theory， this paper tries to apply the ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation theory to the treatment of tumor diseases， integrating it with T cell exhaustion mechanism to elaborate on its scientific connotation and using network pharmacology and bioinformatics to elucidate the correlation between the anti-tumor mechanism of ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation and T cell exhaustion. The ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation function is closely related to the immunometabolic ability of the human body， and the ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation system constitutes the immunometabolic exchange system within and outside the cellular environment. Cancer toxicity is generated by the fuzzy Sanjiao Qi， and the long-term fuzzy Sanjiao Qi is the primary factor leading to T cell exhaustion， which is related to the long-term activation of T cell receptors by the high tumor antigen load in the tumor microenvironment. Qi transformation malfunction of the Sanjiao produces phlegm and collects stasis， which contributes to T cell exhaustion and is correlated with nutrient deprivation， lipid accumulation， and high lactate levels in the immunosuppressed tumor microenvironment， as well as with the release of transforming growth factor-β and upregulated expression of programmed death receptor-1 by tumor-associated fibroblasts and platelets in the tumor microenvironment. Ying and Wei damage due to Sanjiao Qi transformation malfunction is similar to the abnormal manifestations such as progressive loss of exhausted T cell effector function and disturbance of cellular energy metabolism. Guizhi decoction， Shengming decoction， and Wendan decoction can correct T cell exhaustion and exert anti-tumor effects through multi-target and multi-pathways by regulating ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation， and hypoxia inducible factor-1α （HIF-1α） may be one of the main pathways to correct T cell exhaustion. It was found that HIF-1α may be one of the important prognostic indicators in common tumors by bioinformatics. The use of the ''Sanjiao-Yingwei'' Qi transformation method may play an important part in improving the prognosis of tumor patients in clinical practice.

Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a 6-month Ba Duan Jin exercise program in improving the balance of community-dwelling older adults.Methods:A two arms, parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted in 1 028 community residents aged 60-80 years in 40 communities in 5 provinces of China. Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test.Results:A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95% CI: 2.23-3.88) points ( P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95% CI: 4.03-5.37) points ( P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement ( P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions:This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.

OBJECTIVE To clarify the institutional logics of the dilemma of the use of national medical insurance negotiation drugs（referred to as “national negotiation drugs”）， and promote the implementation and use of these drugs in medical institutions. METHODS Based on the complex institutional environment in which medical institutions were situated， the theory of multiple institutional logics was used to construct an analytical framework for the behavioral choices of medical institutions， and reveal the mechanism of the difficulty in the use of national negotiation drugs by clarifying the interaction and conflict of multiple logics in this process， so as to put forward some measures. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS There were contradictions and coupling among the state logic， market logic， social logic and professional logic in the use of national negotiation drugs. In the game of multiple logics， the market logic and professional logic tended to be risk-averse， the failed “pressure-type system” of state logic， and the social logic was weakened， which caused the lack of action in the use of national negotiation drugs with the goal of completing performance evaluations in the current medical institutions. Thus， it is suggested to unbundle the invisible policy restrictions on the use of national negotiation drugs， form the pressure and motivation of medical institutions by incentive and constraint mechanisms， respond to the clinical demand by establishing a green procurement channel， and construct the supervision mechanism on the use of national negotiation drugs by social force， etc.， so as to enhance the effect of the national negotiation drugs.

Objective To develop and validate a prediction model for severe disability or death(SDD)in acute ischemic stroke(AIS)patients who underwent endovascular treatment(EVT).Methods Based on the dataset of ANGEL-ACT study who received EVT for AIS between november 2017 and march 2019,a retrospective analysis was performed on 1 677 patients,including 1 111 males and 566 females,aged ≥ 18 years.Patients were divided into two groups according to whether SDD occurred(mRS 5-6 scores 90 days after surgery):SDD group(n=478)and non-SDD group(n=1 199).Risk factors that might influence SDD after EVT in AIS patients were screened and analyzed by multifactorial analysis,LAS-SO regression,and RF-RFE methods.A nomogram was developed after evaluating the model performance and the execution of internal validation.Results SDD occurred in 380(28.1％)patients in the develop-ment cohort and 98(30.2％)patients in the validation cohort.Combining the three variable screening meth-ods,10 risk factors were selected for inclusion in the final model:age,NIHSS score,whether successful re-canalization,glucose level,hemoglobin,hematocrit,onset to puncture time,systolic blood pressure,AS-PECT score,and whether have treatment-related serious adverse events.A two-stage model means that model 1 contains pre-treatment variables(7 in total)and model 2 contains pre-treatment and post-treatment variables(10 in total).The area under the curve(AUC)of model 1 in the development cohort was 0.705(95％CI 0.674-0.736)and 0.731(95％CI 0.701-0.760)in model 2.Both models had good calibration with aslope of 1.000,and the decision curve analysis showed good clinical applicability.The results of the validation cohort were similar to those of the development cohort.Conclusion Age,admission NIHSS score,whether successful recanalization,admission glucose level,hemoglobin content,erythrocyte pressure volume,onset to puncture time,admission systolic blood pressure,ASPECT score,and whether have treat-ment-related serious adverse events are risk factors for SDD in patients with acute ischemic stroke.The two prediction models based on the above factors were used before and after endovascular treatment to predict SDD occurrence better.

Objective To investigate the application value of B/M ultrasonic measurement in patients with dysphagia caused by lateral medullary syndrome.Methods Twenty patients suffered from lateral medullary syndrome with pharyngeal dysphagia and completely depended on tube feeding were selected.Before and after treatment,the swallowing function was evaluated by functional oral intake scale(FOIS),7 pharyngeal indicators in videofluoroscopic dysphagia scale(VDS)and ultrasonic measurement.Results There was significant difference in FOIS rating before and after treatment(Z=-3.998,P<0.000).Compared with those results before treatment,the VDS score was significantly decreased,and the motion amplitude of geniohyoid muscle,hyoid displacement and hyoid-larynx approximation shortening rate(ASR)were significantly increased after treatment(all P<0.01).Conclusion Ultrasound detection of geniohyoid muscle movement distance,hyoid displacement and ASR can evaluate the damage of hyoid and laryngeal lifting function in patients with lateral medullary syndrome,and indirectly reflect the changes in swallowing function before and after treatment.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of hyperuricemia (HUA) in Bozidun Kirghiz township of Xinjiang Aksu region, and to explore the risk factors for the occurrence of HUA in the local area.Methods:A cross-sectional survey study was conducted by randomly selecting 9 villages in Bozidun Kirgiz Township by the whole-group sampling method and questionnaire were distributed to the households. The questionnaire included: demographic information, history of past illness, personal history, and all subjects were measured for height, weight, blood pressure, abdominal circumference, etc. The diagnostic of HUA if the serum uric acid (SUA) level >420 μmol/L in men or >360 μmol/L in women. The incidences of HUA in different age, sex, food type and life style behavior were analyzed. T test, non-parametric test and Chi-square test were used to analyze the differences among the groups, and logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors. Results:①A total of 2 138 subjects were surveyed, among which 68 patients were with HUA, the prevalence of HUA in Bozidun Kirghiz township, Aksu region in the general population was 3.18%(68/2 138); the prevalence rate in men was 4.60%(45/978), 45 patients were identified; and the prevalence rate in women was 1.98%(23/1 160), 23 patients were identified. The peak age of HUA in male and female patients was 51~60 years old. ②The prevalence of HUA was lower in those who consumed dairy products ( χ2=6.91, P=0.017), nuts ( χ2=8.43, P=0.038) and eggs ( χ2=7.38, P=0.023), and lower in those who consumed more. Different intake of cereals ( χ2=0.87, P=0.647), meat( χ2=0.82, P=0.662), vegetables and fruits( χ2=5.22, P=0.073) had no effect on the prevalence of HUA.③In terms of different life behaviors, the prevalence of HUA in men who had been smoking was higher than those who had never smoked (57.78%, 28.89%, 13.33%, χ2=8.16, P=0.017). In the relationship between drinking and HUA, the prevalence rates of male always drinking, ever drinking and never drinking were 80.00%, 11.11% and 3.89%, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6.67, P=0.038). ④Multi-factor logistic regression analysis showed that high BMI, old age, high TG, increased Cr and increased WBC were risk factors for the occurrence of HUA [ OR(95% CI)=1.13(1.04, 1.23), 1.03(1.00,1.05),1.39(1.00, 1.93), 1.03(1.02, 1.05), 1.27(1.07, 1.49), all P<0.05]. Conclusion:The prevalence of HUA in Bozidun Kirgiz township in Aksu prefecture of Xinjiang is lower than that in other areas with continental climate. High BMI, old age, high TG, increased Cr and increased WBC count are risk factors for the development of HUA .

Objective:To investigate the positivity rate and high titer of antinuclear antibody (ANA) and anti-dsDNA antibody in healthy Tajik, Kirgiz, and Han Chinese populations in Xinjiang.Methods:A total of 3 687 cases of Tajik residents, 2 140 cases of Kyrgyz residents, and 2 034 cases of Han residents were selected as the study subjects, and ANA and anti-dsDNA antibodies were detected and comparatively analyzed. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22.0 software with χ2 test. Results:The positive rate of ANA in Tajik group was 15.1% [(555/3 687), 10.2%(147/1 445) male, 18.2%(408/2 242) female], of which high titers accounted for 25.8%(143/555). It was 16.7%(357/2 140) in the Kyrgyz group [10.3% male(101/980), 19.4%(256/1 160) female], with high titers accounting for 14.8%; and in the Han group, the positivity rate was 16.6% [9.8%(70/720) male, 19.1%(267/1 314) female], with high titers accounting for 18.4%(62/1 337). There was no significant difference in ANA positivity rate among the three ethnic groups( χ2=3.64, P=0.162), but there were differences in the percentage of high titer of ANA in Tajik ethnic group compared with Han and Kyrgyz ethnic groups(25.8% vs. 18.4%, χ2=6.02, P=0.014; 25.8% vs.14.8%, χ2=14.71, P=0.001), which accounted for a high percentage. The highest number of ANA high titers in all three groups was in the age group of 51~60 years. The ANA karyotype with the highest percentage of high titers in the Tajik and Kyrgyz populations was granular, while it was homogeneous and in the Han it was homogeneous.The positive rate of anti-dsDNA antibody in the Tajik group was 0.71%(26/3 687), of which high titer accounted for 23.1%(6/126); in the Kyrgyz group, it was 0.75%(16/2 034), and high titer accounted for 31.3%(4/14); and in the Han group, the positive rate was 0.69%(14/2 034), of which high titer accounted for 28.6%(4/64), and there was no statistical significance of in the difference in the positive rate of anti-dsDNA antibody and the proportion of high titer among the three groups( χ2=0.06, P=0.972; χ2=0.37, P=0.832). Conclusion:The percentage of ANA and anti-dsDNA antibodies and high titers varied vary among the three ethnic groups in this study, and long-term follow-up is needed to monitor keep an eye on the incidence of autoimmune diseases in people with high autoantibody titers.

Objective This research aims to investigate the impact of Orff music therapy on long-term schizophrenic patients in hospitals.Methods The study was a randomized,single-blind controlled trial conducted from April,2023 to September,2023.From April to September 2023,sixty-eight individuals diagnosed with persistent schizophrenia were enrolled and evenly distributed into a pair of cohorts:a treatment group of thirty-four people receiving the intervention,and an equal number forming the control group for comparative purposes.Individuals enrolled in the experimental arm of the study were administered Orff-music therapy alongside routine rehabilitation treatment across a span of two months.For a period of 8 weeks,the control group was given only standard rehabilitation treatment,whereas the research group underwent Orff-music therapy in addition to the standard rehabilitation treatment.Results Before treatment,there were no significant differences in the positive and negative symptoms scale(PANSS),the inpatient psychosis rehabilitation observe scale(IPROS)and the personal and social performance scale(psp)between two groups.After intervention,the PANSS showed that the changes were better in the study group than in the control group in 3 indicators:negative symptoms(-3.20±4.13 vs.-0.17±2.43,P<0.001),general symptoms(-2.79±3.83 vs.-0.17±2.99,P=0.003)and the total scores(-5.88±6.36 vs.0.00±4.08,P<0.001),but not in positive symptoms(P>0.05).The IPROS showed that the performances of patients in the study group were better than the control group in terms of participation in work therapy(-0.82±2.08 vs.0.23±2.10,P=0.041),socialization(-0.59±1.94 vs.0.53±1.69,P=0.014)and ability to live(-0.94±2.50 vs.0.15±1.48,P=0.033),the changes in scores before and after the intervention were significantly different when compared to the control group.The PSP showed that the changes in scores before and after the treatment of the study group was better than the control group in terms of social activity[0(-1,0)vs.0(0,0),P=0.011],and self-care[0(-1,0)vs.0(-0.25,0),P=0.012]were better than the control group.Conclusion For long-term hospitalized patients with chronic schizophrenia.Orff-music therapy can be a powerful tool for alleviating mental issues,fostering social functioning,and enhancing rehabilitation results.

Objective:To investigate the expression level and application value of anti-carbamylated protein(CarP)antibody in rheumatoid arthritis(RA).Methods:Demographic data and laboratory test results of RA patients,non-RA patients and healthy controls in the physical examination center were re-viewed from December 2018 to June 2019 in the Rheumatology and Immunology Department of the Peo-ple's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.The serum concentrations of anti-CarP antibodies in all the subjects were measured by ELISA and statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 259 subjects were included in this study,including 158 in the RA group(45 serum-negative RA patients),59 in the non-RA group and 42 in the healthy control group.The concentration of anti-CarP antibody in RA group[8.31(5.22,15.26)U/mL]was higher than that in non-RA group[4.50(3.35,5.89)U/mL]and healthy control group[3.46(2.76,4.92)U/mL].The concentration of anti-CarP antibody in non-RA group was not significantly different from that in healthy control group(P=0.10).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis showed that the sensitivity of anti-CarP antibody in the diagnosis of RA was 58.2％,and the specificity was 93.1％.The sensitivity of the combined detection of anti-CarP antibody,anti-cyclic peptide containing citrulline(CCP)antibody and rheumatoid factor(RF)was 82.3％,and the specificity was 96.5％.The positive rate of anti-CarP antibody in serum-negative RA patients was 44.4％(20/45).Univariate Logisitic regression analysis showed that age,C-reactive pro-tein(CRP),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),RF,glucose-6-phosphate isomerase(GPI),anti-CCP antibody and anti-CarP antibody were risk factors for RA.Multivariate Logisitic regression analysis showed that anti-CCP antibody and anti-CarP antibody were independent risk factors for RA.Spearman correlation analysis showed that there was no significant correlation between anti-CarP antibody and swol-len joint count(SJC),tenderness joints count(TJC),ESR,disease activity score for 28 joints(DAS28),clinical disease activity index(CDAI),simplified disease activity index(SDAI).The concentration of anti-CarP antibody in RA with bone erosion(n=88)was higher than that in RA without bone erosion(n=70),and there was significant difference between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Anti-CarP antibody is an effective serological marker for the diagnosis of RA.The combined detection of RF,anti-CCP antibody and anti-CarP antibody can improve its diagnostic value,and anti-CarP antibody may be an effective assistant diagnostic tool for serum negative RA.The high serum concentration of anti-CarP antibody in patients with RA may indicate an increased risk of bone erosion and should be treated early,but further cohort studies are needed for follow-up observation.
