Objective:To explore the effects of mindfulness-based decompression therapy on fear of disease progression, quality of life and sleep quality in patients with acute ischemic stroke, in order to provide intervention measures to alleviate fear of the disease progression degree and improve sleep and quality of life in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods:This study was a randomized controlled study. Using the convenience sampling method, 98 patients with acute ischemic stroke who attended the Department of Neurology at the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from November 2021 to September 2022 were selected for the study, and the study population was divided into experimental group ( n=49) and control group ( n=49) using the random number table method. The control group received conventional care, and the experimental group received mindfulness-based stress reduction therapy for 8 weeks in addition to conventional care. Compared the scores of the Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form (FoP-Q-SF), Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) between the two groups of patients before and after intervention using two independent sample t-tests, and further compared the score spread of each scale before and after intervention between the two groups of patients using Mann-Whitney U test. Results:In the experimental group, 4 cases fell off and 3 cases had imperfect questionnaire information, while in the control group, 2 cases fell off and 5 cases had imperfect questionnaire information. Finally, 42 cases were included in each group. The 23 males and 19 females in the control group aged (48.31 ± 7.61) years old, while 25 males and 17 females in the experimental group aged (50.19 ± 8.64) years old. There was no significant difference in FoP-Q-SF, SS-QOL and PSQI scores between the two groups before intervention (all P>0.05). After intervention, the scores of FoP-Q-SF and PSQI in the experimental group (35.79 ± 7.04, 7.19 ± 2.58) were lower than those in the control group (38.52 ± 4.02, 9.45 ± 2.28), while the SS-QOL score (200.36 ± 21.75) was higher than that in the control group (185.41 ± 15.90), the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.19, -4.26, 3.60, all P<0.05). After intervention, the scores of FoP-Q-SF and PSQI in the experimental group were lower than those before intervention (39.69 ± 4.15, 10.00 ± 2.85), while the SS-QOL score was higher than that before intervention (176.93 ± 23.54), the differences were statistically significant ( t=4.80, 10.45, -11.43, all P<0.05). The score spreads of FoP-Q-SF, SS-QOL, and PSQI in the experimental group before and after intervention were 1.00 (0.00, 9.25), 20.00 (12.75, 32.75), 3 (1, 4), which were higher than 1.00 (-1.25, 2.00), 5.50 (1.00, 10.25), 0 (-1, 2) in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( Z=-2.30, -5.74, -5.53, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Mindfulness-based decompression therapy can effectively relieve the fear of disease progression and improve the quality of sleep and life in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Wuhutang is the 51st Chinese medicine prescription of Han ethnic group on in the catalogue of ancient classical prescriptions (the second batch) ,which originated from Renzhai' Straight Diections Prescriptions (《仁斋直指方》) by YANG Shiying in the Song dynasty,it is composed of 5 medicines, including Ephedrae Herba,Armeniacae Semen Amarum, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, tea and Gypsum Fibrosum. It treats shortness of breath and phlegm. Following the principle of textual research on the key information of ancient classical famous prescriptions, the author collected and recorded the ancient books of traditional Chinese medicine of Wuhutang with the method of Bibliometrics, and screened out 53 valid data, involving 41 ancient books. Based on the historical evolution, drug composition, main treatment of disease and syndrome, drug dosage, method of preparation and usage, drug origin and processing, the author conducted a dig and a systematic study of Wuhutang. The results show that:in the later generations, besides inheriting the original prescription, the composition of medicine was added or subtracted, and the frequency of addition of Mori Cortex was the most;in the treatment of disease and syndrome, most of them inherited the original prescription mainly treating asthma syndrome, also see in the treatment of asthma, cough and other lung disease, in the drug dosage and method of use , it is suggested to inherit the original prescription, the dosage of each medicine is: Ephedrae Herba 2.89 g, Armeniacae Semen Amarum 4.13 g, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma 1.65 g, tea 3.30 g, Gypsum Fibrosum 6.20 g, decoction, take warm clothes before eating;on the source of medcine,ephedra is made from the dried herbaceous stems of Ephedra sinica (Ephedraceae),bitter almond is made from the dried and mature seeds of Prunus armeniaca (Rosaceae),Licorice is made from the dried roots and rhizomes of Glycyrrhiza uralensis(Legumes), tea is made from the buds leaves of Camellia sinensis(Camellia),plaster is made from Gypsum Fibrosum of sulfate mineral gypsum family. At the same time, we collected and sorted the modern clinical application literature of Wuhutang, and obtained 73 effective literatures, all of which are for the treatment of respiratory system diseases, especially for children's pneumonia and asthma, and mostly belong to"phlegm-heat obstructing the lung syndrome". Through the analysis and study of ancient books and modern applied literature, the historical evolution and prescription evolution of Wuhutang are clarified, and its key information is determined, in order to provide more accurate reference for the research and development of the classic Wuhutang and the rational addition and subtraction of the application.

Objective:To gain a deep understanding of the supportive care needs of families of children with retinoblastoma (RB) through qualitative research.Methods:From March to May 2022, a semi-structured interview was conducted using purposive sampling to select the family members of 15 RB children in the Department of Eye Tumor of Beijing Tongren Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University. Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was used to refine, extract, and analyze interview data.Results:The supportive care needs of the families of RB children were summarized into three themes and six sub-themes, namely, psychological needs (emotional listening and psychological support), knowledge needs (disease knowledge needs, children's post discharge guidance, internet resource needs), and economic needs (social resource integration) .Conclusions:RB, as a malignant eye tumor, often brings a heavy burden to families. Family members of children generally experience negative emotions such as anxiety and depression, as well as a lack of knowledge. The economic burden on families is heavy, and there is a high demand for supportive care. The supportive care program for families of RB children is not yet perfect, and nurses should provide emotional support and professional assistance to the families, providing help and guidance in psychological counseling, knowledge needs, economic assistance, and other aspects.

Pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 component subunit beta-1 (PDHB-1) is a gene encoding the β-subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, which plays an important role in fruit acid accumulation. The aim of this study was to investigate the evolution characteristics of apple PDHB-1 family and its expression in apples with different acid contents. Bioinformatics analysis was performed using databases including NCBI, Pfam and software including ClustalX, MEGA, and TBtools. By combining titratable acid content determination and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), the expression of this family genes in the peel and pulp of apple 'Asda' and 'Chengji No.1' with different acid content were obtained, respectively. The family members were mainly located in chloroplast, cytoplasm and mitochondria. α-helix and random coil were the main factors for the formation of secondary structure in this family. Tissue-specific expression profiles showed that the expression of most members were higher in fruit than in other tissues. qRT-PCR results showed that the expression profile of most members was consistent with the profile of titratable acid contents. In the peel, the expression levels of 14 members in 'Asda' apples with high acid content were significantly higher than that in 'Chengji No.1' apples with low acid content, where the expression difference of MdPDHB1-15 was the most significant. In the pulp, the expression levels of 17 members in 'Asda' apples were significantly higher than that in 'Chengji No.1' apples, where MdPDHB1-01 was the most highly expressed. It was predicted that PDHB-1 gene family in apple plays an important role in the regulation of fruit acidity.

Objective:To investigate the etiology, clinical features and treatment of familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) secondary glaucoma.Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From January 1, 2016 to January 1, 2022, 15 patients (17 eyes) were diagnosed with FEVR secondary glaucoma in Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University were included in the study. All patients underwent systematic ophthalmological evaluation. According to the patient's age, visual acuity, intraocular pressure, anterior segment, vitreous body and retina condition, the choice of translimbal lensectomy combined with vitrectomy, goniectomy, cyclophotocoagulation, intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment were chosen. The follow-up time was 3 to 37 months. The clinical characteristics of the affected eye, and the changes of intraocular pressure, anterior chamber depth and complications after surgery were observed.Results:Among the 15 patients, there were 11 males with 13 eyes, and 4 females with 4 eyes. Age was 6.14±7.37 years old. FEVR stages 2B, 3B, 4A, 4B, 5A, and 5B were 1, 1, 5, 6, 3, and 1 eye, respectively. The intraocular pressure of the affected eye was 42.74±9.06 mm Hg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa). All eyes had shallow anterior chamber and angle closure, anterior or posterior iris adhesions, lens opacity, retinal detachment, iris neovascularization in 4 eyes, and vitreous hemorrhage in 2 eyes. Sixteen eyes were treated with translimbal lensectomy combined with vitrectomy and goniotomy, of which 8 eyes were treated with anti-VEGF treatment; 1 eye was treated with cyclophotocoagulation combined with anti-VEGF treatment. After operation, the intraocular pressure of 16 eyes returned to normal range, and the depth of anterior chamber of 16 eyes returned to normal, and no obvious complications occurred.Conclusions:The main etiology of secondary glaucoma in FEVR is the structural and functional abnormalities of the anterior chamber and angle, which are found in the 2B and above stages of FEVR. The lensectomy and vitrectomy via limbal approach can effectively control the intraocular pressure and restore the anterior chamber, with no serious complications.
