Immobilized enzyme-based enzyme electrode biosensors, characterized by high sensitivity and efficiency, strong specificity, and compact size, demonstrate broad application prospects in life science research, disease diagnosis and monitoring, etc. Immobilization of enzyme is a critical step in determining the performance (stability, sensitivity, and reproducibility) of the biosensors. Random immobilization (physical adsorption, covalent cross-linking, etc.) can easily bring about problems, such as decreased enzyme activity and relatively unstable immobilization. Whereas, directional immobilization utilizing amino acid residue mutation, affinity peptide fusion, or nucleotide-specific binding to restrict the orientation of the enzymes provides new possibilities to solve the problems caused by random immobilization. In this paper, the principles, advantages and disadvantages and the application progress of enzyme electrode biosensors of different directional immobilization strategies for enzyme molecular sensing elements by specific amino acids (lysine, histidine, cysteine, unnatural amino acid) with functional groups introduced based on site-specific mutation, affinity peptides (gold binding peptides, carbon binding peptides, carbohydrate binding domains) fused through genetic engineering, and specific binding between nucleotides and target enzymes (proteins) were reviewed, and the application fields, advantages and limitations of various immobilized enzyme interface characterization techniques were discussed, hoping to provide theoretical and technical guidance for the creation of high-performance enzyme sensing elements and the manufacture of enzyme electrode sensors.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Sufei Pingchuan Formula (肃肺平喘方) in the treatment of bronchiectasis with airflow limitation, phlegm-heat obstructing the lung, and lung-spleen qi deficiency syndrome. MethodsA randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted. A total of 72 patients with stable bronchiectasis with airflow limitation of phlegm-heat obstructing the lung and lung-spleen qi deficiency syndrome were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, with 36 cases in each group. On the basis of regular inhalation of tiotropium bromide inhalation spray, the treatment group was given Sufei Pingchuan Formula granules, and the control group was given Sufei Pingchuan Formula granule simulant. The course of treatment in both groups was 12 weeks. The pulmonary function of both groups before and after treatment was observed, specifically focusing on forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1); the modified British Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scale, 24-hour sputum volume, COPD assessment test (CAT), and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores were assessed before treatment and after 4, 8, and 12 weeks of treatment; acute exacerbations were recorded at weeks 4, 8, and 12; additionally, changes in routine blood tests, urinalysis, liver and kidney function, and adverse events were monitored before and after treatment. ResultsAfter treatment, 4 patients in the treatment group and 6 in the control group dropped out. After 12 weeks of treatment, FEV1 increased in both groups compared to pre-treatment levels (P<0.05), but the difference between groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Compared to before treatment, the treatment group showed a reduction in mMRC scores after 12 weeks (P<0.05) and a decrease in 24-hour sputum volume, CAT scores, and TCM syndrome scores at weeks 4, 8, and 12 (P<0.05). In the control group, 24-hour sputum volume decreased after 12 weeks (P<0.05), and TCM syndrome scores decreased at weeks 8 and 12 (P<0.05). Compared to the control group, the treatment group showed a greater reduction in mMRC scores at week 12 (P<0.05), a decrease in 24-hour sputum volume and TCM syndrome scores at weeks 4, 8, and 12 (P<0.05), and lower CAT scores at weeks 8 and 12 (P<0.05). The frequency and number of acute exacerbations in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group at week 12 (P<0.05). No severe adverse events occurred in either group. ConclusionSufei Pingchuan Formula can improve the pulmonary function FEV1, the severity of dyspnea, reduce 24-hour sputum volume and frequent acute exacerbations, and improve the quality of life in patients with bronchiectasis and airflow limitation, with good safety.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.
