Objective:To analyze the mechanism of Kaixin San in treating Alzheimer disease (AD) based on the TCM integrated pharmacology platform combined with GEO chip differential gene analysis method.Methods:By searching TCMIP and Drugbank database, the active components and related molecular targets of Kaixin San were obtained. GSE4757 chip data was obtained through GEO database, and its differential genes were obtained using R language to draw heat map and volcano map. Molecular target map of differentially expressed genes between Kaixin San and AD was constructed through Cytoscape 3.7.2. Bisogenet and CytoNCA were used to draw the target topological network, and GO enrichment analysis and KEGG enrichment analysis of Kaixin San and AD gene were carried out.Results:86 active components of Kaixin San were obtained to treat AD, and 29 differential genes shared with GEO were obtained. PPI topological network was constructed. 6 core candidate genes were screened, and were merged with KEGG pathway enriched genes to obtain important genes for disease treatment, such as CHRM1, CHRM2, ACHE, CHRM3, CASP8, PTGS2, DRD1, CACN1S, ADRB1. 375 GO entries were obtained, mainly involving biological processes such as vasoconstriction, postsynaptic membrane plasticity, neurotransmitter transmission, etc. KEGG enrichment analysis mainly involved cholinergic synaptic signal pathway, cAMP signal pathway, calcium signal pathway, nerve ligand receptor interaction signal pathway, etc.Conclusions:Kaixin San shows the features of multi-component, multi-target and multi-channel in treating AD. It can play a role in the treatment of AD by inhibiting inflammatory reaction, reducing the activity of acetylcholinesterase and regulating the concentration of calciumion.

Objective:To evaluate the medium and long term clinical effect of three bone graft materials on periodontitis after periodontal regeneration.Methods:Initially, 16 patients with periodontitis after periodontal regeneration in Tianjin Stomatological Hospital from July 2017 to November 2018 were divided into three groups: Bio-Oss ( n=6), Bio-Gene ( n=5) and Bone 3(n=5) according to the differences in bone materials. Clinical and radiological results were evaluated at pre-surgery, post-6 months, and post-4 years. Results:The 6-month and 4-year clinical follow-up showed that, the depth of exploration (PD) and clinical attachment loss (CAL) of patients in the three groups were lower than those before operation (all P<0.05), and the changes of PD (ΔPD) and CAL (ΔCAL) were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in gingival recession (GR) between the three groups (all P>0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference in the change of GR (ΔGR) between the groups (all P>0.05). From 6 months to 4 years after operation, there was no significant difference among ΔGR, ΔPD and ΔCAL groups (all P>0.05). At 6 months and 4 years after operation, the residual alveolar bone height (RBH%) of the three groups was significantly higher than that before operation (all P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the two groups (all P>0.05); From 6 months to 4 years after operation, there was no significant difference in RBH% between the groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Three kinds of bone graft materials have significant clinical effects on periodontitis after periodontal regeneration, which can provide a reference for the selection of clinical regeneration materials.

Hospital culture plays an important role in the orderly operation of large shelter hospitals as well as epidemic prevention and control.From April to May 2022, the shelter hospital of the National Convention and Exhibition Center(Shanghai) had created the large shelter hospital culture co-built by doctors and patients with a greater sense of belonging by taking measures such as joint party building between doctors and patients, giving play to the vanguard force of party members, carrying out various forms of cultural, sports and science popularization activities, encouraging enthusiastic patients to participate in activity planning, focusing on key groups, formulating shelter " residents convention", and so on. These measures ultimately formed cultural adaptation, cultural synchronization and cultural shaping, which were conducive to enhancing the empathy of doctors and patients, improving the effectiveness of medical implementation, and promoting the standardization of shelter management system. This harmonious, warm and autonomous culture co-built by doctors and patients effectively ensures the safe and orderly operation of the shelter hospital, and provides reference for the construction of the cultural system of large shelter hospitals in China.

Objective:To explore the clinical features, diagnosis and prognosis of renal transplant recipients with COVID-19.Methods:The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed for 2 kidney transplant recipients with COVID-19. Based upon clinical manifestations, blood routine, inflammatory factors, cell immunity, chest computed tomography(CT)and therapeutic efficacies, the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 in kidney transplant recipients(Interim Edition V)were compared to that of ordinary COVID-19 patients. Both recipients had an onset of low/moderate fever. There was no initial symptom of cough or fatigue. Blood routine indicated a normal count of leukocytes, a marked lymphocytopenia, elevated C-reactive protein(CRP)and slightly higher procalcitonin(PCT). Cellular immunity was extremely low and chest CT showed multiple patchy ground-glass opacities in both lungs.Results:After 1 week of onset, both patients had a marked disease progression. The pathogenesis and imaging changes were highly similar to those reported for ordinary COVID-19 patients. For preventing secondary infections, both received symptomatic supportive measures of antiviral agents, withdrawing immunosuppressants, tapering of hormone maintenance dose, intravenous drip of gamma globulin and respiratory supports. Currently the conditions of both patients obviously improved and renal function was stable. One case recovered and was discharged.Conclusions:The clinical manifestations of COVID-19 in renal transplant recipients are generally consistent with that of ordinary COVID-19 patients. Although there is no established treatment for COVID-19, withdrawing immunosuppressants, maintaining small and medium doses of hormones, actively restoring immunity and providing respiratory supports in a timely manner are effective.

Objective:
To explore the feasibility, safety and long-term efficacy of laparoscopic total gastrectomy combined with distal pancreaticosplenectomy for the treatment of T4b gastric cancer.
Methods:
A retrospective cohort study was performed. Clinical data of consecutive patients with T4b gastric cancer invading pancreatic tail undergoing laparoscopic or open total gastrectomy combined with distal pancreaticosplenectomy from January 2010 to December 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. Enrollment criteria: (1) primary gastric cancer confirmed by pathology as T4b adenocarcinoma; (2) chest+abdominal+pelvic enhanced CT indicated cancer invading pancreatic tail without distant metastasis, and R0 resection was evaluated as feasible before operation; (3) physical status was ECOG score 0 to 2, and was tolerant to operation. Patients with peritoneal implant metastasis and tumor invasion of other organs during operation, or changes in surgical methods for other reasons were excluded. All the operations were performed by the same surgical team, which had the experiences of more than 100 cases of laparoscopic and 100 cases of open radical gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection. The choice of surgical procedure was discussed by the surgeon and the patient, and decided according to the patient′s intension. Patients were divided into the laparoscopic group and open group according to the surgical method. Intraoperative and perioperative findings were compared between the two groups. The 3-year disease-free survival rate were analyzed with Kaplan-Meier survival curve and compared by using log-rank test.
Results:
A total of 37 consecutive patients were enrolled, including 21 in the laparoscopic group and 16 in the open group, and no one receiving laparoscopic procedure was converted to open surgery. The baseline data of two groups were comparable (all

Objective To compare the clinical effects of guided tissue regeneration (GTR) combined with different bone graft materials, including Bio-Gene, Bone3 and Bio-Oss, in the treatment of periodontal intra-bony defects. Methods Eighteen patients with chronic periodontitis with periodontal intra-bony defects were randomly divided into the Bio-Gene group, the Bone3 group and Bio-Oss group. After periodontal debridement, periodontal bone grafting combined with GTR surgery was performed in all patients. The clinical and radiographic parameters of patients were collected before surgery, suture removal (2 weeks after surgery), and 6 months after surgery, including periodontal exploration depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL), gingival recession (GR), and residual alveolar bone height (RBH). Results The wounds healed well in all patients when the suture was removed. The stage Ⅰ healing was obtained without infection or wound dehiscence, and the postoperative discomfort was acceptable. At 6 months after periodontal bone grafting combined with GTR treatment, the PD and CAL indexes in the three groups were significantly improved compared with those before surgery (all P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in PD and CAL between the three groups (all P>0.05). Imaging results showed that new bone formation was observed in the original bone defect area in all three groups after 6 months of the treatment, the bone density was similar to the surrounding bone tissue. Besides, the RBH%increased significantly compared with that before the treatment (all P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in RBH%among the three groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions Bio-Gene, Bone3 and Bio-Oss are all reliable bone graft materials for the treatment of alveolar bone defects caused by periodontitis, which can significantly improve the osteogenesis effect.
