OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of Shenqi guben formula （SQGB） in improving cancer-related fatigue （CRF） based on network pharmacology and cellular experiments. METHODS Active components of SQGB and CRF-related targets were identified on the basis of databases such as the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology platform. An in vitro CRF cell model was established by inducing A549 cells with interleukin-17 （IL-17）. Cells were treated with low （1.0 mg/mL） or high （1.5 mg/mL） concentrations of SQGB. The effects on cell viability， migration， apoptosis， inflammatory factors， mRNA expression， apoptosis-related proteins and key proteins 011） of IL-17 signaling pathway were evaluated using scratch assay， flow cytometry， ELISA， real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis. RESULTS SQGB contained 84 active components acting on 209 potential CRF targets. Among E-these， quercetin， kaempferol， and luteolin were identified as the core components of the compound. Core targets included tumor protein p53， AKT serine/threonine kinase 1， IL-6， and tumor necrosis factor （TNF）. IL-17， TNF and phosphatidylinositol-3- kinase-serine/threonine protein kinase （PI3K/Akt） signaling pathways were identified as crucial pathways. Compared with IL-17 intervention group， the cell migration rate， B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2） protein expression， the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the supernatant， mRNA expression of IL-17 receptor A （IL-17RA）， TNF-α， and IL-6， as well as the protein expression of IL-17RA and nuclear factor kappa-B p65 subunit （p65）， and phosphorylated （p）-p65/p65 ratio in IL-17+SQGB low- and high- quality concentration groups were all significantly decreased or down-regulation （P＜0.05）； the apoptosis rate， expression levels of Bcl-2 associated X protein （Bax） and cleaved caspase-3 protein， the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2， the expression level of p-p38 protein， and the p- p38/p38 ratio were all significantly increased or up-regulated （P＜0.05）. Moreover， the improvement effects of these indicators were mostly better in the high-quality concentration groups compared to the low-quality concentration groups （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS SQGB ameliorates CRF by regulating the IL-17 signaling pathway， inhibiting the expression of inflammatory factors， and activating p38 MAPK-dependent apoptosis pathway.

Objective:To construct a safe operation management path based on work chain and extension matter-element model,and to explore its application effect in clinical management of magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)equipment.Methods:The safety risk evaluation indicators was developed from the perspective of MRI equipment work chain at the levels of personnel,equipment,environment and system.The rating of safety characteristic indicators of equipment was carried out and risk control management strategy was formulated by adopting extensible matter element model.The MRI equipment in clinical use in the Imaging Department of Shucheng People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 was selected,and the standard process management mode(referred to as standard process mode)and risk assessment control mode(referred to as risk control mode)were adopted respectively for equipment operation management.The safety risk event control rate,safety operation management standardization and professional capability of staff of MRI equipment under two different management modes were compared.Results:Among 62 safety risk events of MRI equipment managed by risk control mode,the control rates of extremely dangerous,highly dangerous and significant dangerous events were 1.61%(1/62),4.84%(3/62)and 8.06%(5/62),respectively,which were lower than those of the standard process mode,the difference was statistically significant(x2=5.613,4.567,9.241,P<0.05).Among 480 cases of safety operation inspection carried out by risk control mode management,the standardization of patient reception,equipment use,operating environment and management system were 96.25%(462/480),98.96%(475/480),99.17%(476/480)and 97.50%(468/480),respectively,which were higher than those of the standard process mode,the difference was statistically significant(x2=18.631,17.563,7.353,8.789,P<0.05).The annual assessment scores of MRI technicians,nurses and medical engineering engineers of the imaging department adopting risk control mode were(91.87±4.56)points,(94.54±3.27)points and(91.45±4.95)points,respectively,which were higher than those of the standard process mode,the difference was statistically significant(t=3.291,4.277,4.292,P<0.05).Conclusion:The risk control management mode based on work chain and extension matter-element model can comprehensively explore the factors affecting the safe operation of MRI equipment,effectively control the incidence of high-risk events,improve the quality of clinical operation and operation management of MRI equipment.

Objective To observe the effects of vestibular function training and proprioception training on vertigo and balance function after postoperative circulatory ischemia under the visual participation. Methods From June, 2016 to May, 2018, 72 patients with posterior circulation ischemic vertigo aged more than 60 were randomly divided into proprioception group (n = 24), vestibular group (n = 24) and comprehensive group (n = 24). All the patients received routine medicine and rehabilitation training. Moreover, the proprioception group accepted proprioception training, the vestibular group accepted vestibular function training, and the comprehensive group accepted both proprioception training and vestibular function training. They were assessed with Dizziness Assessment Rating Scale (DARS), Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) before and after four weeks of treatment, while the mean velocity (Vm) of blood flow in the basilar artery was measured with transcranial Doppler, and the stability index (ST) was measured with Tetrax. Results The scores of DARS, DHI and BBS, and Vm and ST improved in all the groups after treatment (t > 57.825, P < 0.001). However, the scores of DHI and BBS, and ST improved more in the comprehensive group than in the proprioception group and the vestibular training group (P < 0.05), Vm and score of DARS improved more in the vestibular group and the comprehensive group than in the proprioception group (P < 0.05). Conclusion With the participation of the vision, vestibular function training combined with proprioception training can further alleviate vertigo caused by postoperative circulatory ischemia, and improve balance and quality of life.

Objective To conduct a comprehensive study on pulsatile blood flow in arteries by proposing a convenient theoretical research system for hemodynamics. Methods Based on Womersley algorithm for fully developed pulsatile flow, numerical algorithm was introduced to establish the solving and analytical system of hemodynamics based on flow rate in arteries during one cardiac cycle. The flow rate of carotid artery in pig was measured under three blood flow states: the ideal state with a sinusoidal inflow waveform, the normal physiological state and the enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) state for comprehensive hemodynamic research. Results Important hemodynamic parameters such as the axial speed vector, the wall shear stress (WSS), and the oscillatory shear index (OSI) during one cardiac cycle under the mentioned three flow states were solved respectively. The waveform of flow rate had a certain effect on WSS distributions and OSI level; the EECP performance obviously resulted in a significant increase in the level of WSS (WSS peak in particular) and OSI. Conclusions The solving system developed in this paper can be used for hemodynamics study conveniently and effectively. One of the most important hemodynamic mechanisms that lead to EECP’s good clinical effect may lie in its promotion to WSS level under physiological state, but the effect of OSI on endothelial function of the artery might much smaller than WSS itself; therefore, OSI may not be an ideal hemodynamic index for predicting the lesion of atherosclerosis.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the difference between the cognitive and control ability and the responsibility in forensic psychiatry evaluation. METHODS: To compare the results of the responsibility evaluation from 2001.1 to 2006.10 (the first period) with that of the cognitive and control ability evaluation from 2006.11 to 2010.10 (the second period). The admissibility opinions on court judgment and evaluation were investigated by return visit. The legal professions' opinions on forensic psychiatric issues from the police office, the procuratorate, the court, and the judiciary were investigated. RESULTS: There was no significant difference of the criminal types between two periods (P > 0.05). There was significant difference of the diagnostic types between two periods (P < 0.05). The proportion of normal range and part loss of the cognitive and control ability in the second period were higher than that in the first period, but the proportion of complete loss of the cognitive and control ability in the second period was lower than that in the first period (P < 0.05). Among the legal professions, 70.5% of them thought that "the evaluation of cognitive and control ability" was different from "the evaluation of criminal responsibility" and 94.9% of them thought that "to confirm the influence of the forensic psychiatric evaluation of mental disorder on the crime behavior" or "to assess of cognitive and control ability" met requirements of normative judicial expertise. CONCLUSION The evaluation of cognitive and control ability is more aligned with legal requirements and behavioral norms of own subject than the evaluation of responsibility.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of hyperthermic intraperitoneal perfusion chemotherapy (HIPC) in treatment of advanced colorectal cancer.Methods The Meta-analysis was applied to analyze 8 randomized controlled quantitative studies published at domestic and abroad.These patients treated by HIPC after radical operation with colorectal cancer were included for the treatment group,and those treated only by radical operation with colorectal cancer for the control group.Relative risk (RR) of outcome variable of 3-year and 5-year survival rate and safety between the two groups were compared.Results There were 8 selected literatures,including 1 501 cases,in which 765 cases for treatment group,and 736 cases for control group.RR of 5-year survival rate of the total patients was 2.39 (95% CI:1.66-3.45).RR of 3-year survival rate of the total patients was 2.13 (95% CI:1.45-3.13).The results demonstrated that HIPC could improve 5-year and 3-year survival rate,and sensitivity analysis confirmed the conclusions more reliable.The security was described in 5 literatures,the available information showed smaller potential security issue.Conclusions HIPC after radical operation of advanced colorectal cancer can increase 5-year and 3-year survival rate of patients,improve the prognosis of patients.Whether patients with increased incidence of postoperative complications related to the HIPC is no clear-cut conclusions for lack of related research.

Objective To investigate the influence of experimental scotoma on multifocal visual evoked potential (mf-VEP). Methods The mf-VEP of 10 healthy individuals (20 eyes) was measured with VERIS Science 4.0. Every eye was measured for 3 times. The right eye was measured with full field stimulation and upper hemi-field or lower hemi-field masked. The left eye was measured with full field stimulation and central three-rings area or lower nasal field masked. The first slice responses of the second order in different field were analyzed and compared by VERIS software. Results The mf-VEP in masked area was undetectable or obviously decreased in all subjects. In most unmasked field, the amplitudes of mf-VEP were not changed, except that in some place decreased slightly with statistically significant difference in comparison to the full field stimulation mode. Conclusion mf-VEP is influenced with experimental scotoma. The mf-VEP changes are consistent with the visual field masked.

Objective　To explore the relationship between electrophysiological changes, clinical phenotype and genotype in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy(DMD/BMD), to address the expression and roles of dystrophin and its isoforms on the retina, and to inquire into the molecular mechanism of the abnormal electroretinogram(ERG) on DMD/BMD patients with different genotype.Methods　Gene deletions were screened by multiplex DNA amplification with eleven primers on twenty-two consecutive patients with DMD and BMD, and then, the ERG was tested according to international ERG standard.Results　ERG phenotype was associated with the site of DMD gene defects rather than the severity of the phenotype. Patients with deletion in the central region of the gene had more severe changes in the scotopic ERG as compared to those with gene non-deletion.Conclusion　The ERG genotype-phenotype correlation suggests that DP260 may play the most important role in the retinal neurotransmission.
