Lipid turbidity disease is a metabolic disease featuring lipid metabolism disorders caused by many factors such as social environment， diet， and lifestyle， which is closely related to many diseases in modern medicine， such as hyperlipidemia， obesity， fatty liver， atherosclerosis， metabolic syndrome， and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases， with a wide range of influence and far-reaching harm. According to the Huangdi Neijing， lipid turbidity disease reflects the pathological change of the body's physiologic grease. Grease is the thick part of body fluids， which has the function of nourishing， and it is the initial state and source of important substances in the human body such as brain， marrow， essence， and blood. Once the grease of the human body is abnormal， it can lead to lipid turbidity disease. The Huangdi Neijing also points out the physiological relationship between the transportation and transformation of body fluids and the rise and fall of the spleen and stomach， which can deduce the pathological relationship between the occurrence of lipid turbidity disease and the abnormal rise and fall of the spleen and stomach functions. Lipid turbidity disease is caused by overconsumption of fatty and sweet foods or insufficient spleen and stomach endowments， leading to disorders of the function of promoting clear and reducing turbidity in the spleen and stomach. This leads to the transformation of thick grease in body fluids into lipid turbidity， which accumulates in the body's meridians， blood vessels， skin pores， and organs， forming various forms of metabolic diseases. The research team believed that the pathological basis of lipid turbidity disease was the abnormal rise and fall of the spleen and stomach and the obstruction of the transfer of grease. According to the different locations where lipid turbidity stays， it was divided into four common pathogenesis types： ''inability to distinguish between the clear and turbid， turbid stagnation in the Ying blood''， ''spleen not rising clear， turbid accumulation in the vessels''， ''spleen dysfunction， lipid retention in the pores''， ''spleen failure to transportation and transformation， and grease accumulation in the liver''. According to the pathogenesis， it could be divided into four common syndromes， namely， turbid stagnation in the Ying blood， turbid accumulation in the vessels， lipid retention in the pores， and grease accumulation in the liver， and the corresponding prescriptions were given for syndrome differentiation and treatment， so as to guide clinical differentiation and treatment of the lipid turbidity disease.

pancreatic cancer is a common malignant tumor of digestive system, with poor prognosis. About 80% of patients have lost the opportunity of surgical resection when diagnosed. In different treatment schemes, radioactive seed 125I implantation can improve the quality of life of patients with unresectable pancreatic cancer and is expected to improve their survival rate. This article reviews the clinical applications of 125I particle implantation therapy combined with chemotherapy, cryotherapy, intracavitary irradiation, stent placement, radiofrequency ablation, nanoknife, and bypass surgery, in order to better promote its clinical application. However, it is necessary to establish unified dosage standards and regulatory guidelines to make them safer and more widely serve clinical practice.

Objectives:To investigate the effect of cardiac rehabilitation exercise guided by cardiopulmonary exercise test on cardiopulmonary function, cardiopulmonary endurance and activities of daily living in patients who had coronary heart disease after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:Seventy patients who had coronary heart disease after PCI treated in the Wenzhou Central Hospital from July 2022 to May 2023 were enrolled perspectively (3 cases eventually dropped out of the study), and they were divided into the control group (33 cases) and the rehabilitation group (34 cases) by random number table method. The control group was given conventional medication after PCI, while the rehabilitation group was additionally provided with exercise rehabilitation for 12 weeks on the basis of the control group. The patient′s cardiopulmonary function indicators, cardiopulmonary endurance indicators and ability of daily living(ADL) score of the two groups were compared before and after treatment.Results:After treatment for 12 weeks, the cardiopulmonary function indicators left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), left atrial inner diameter (LAD), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV 1), ratio of FEV 1 to forced expiratory volume (FVC) (FEV 1/FVC), maximum ventilation quantity (MVV) in the rehabilitation group were obviously improved compared with the control group: (102.8 ± 14.4) ml vs. (114.8 ± 20.4) ml, (39.9 ± 13.7) ml vs. (48.4 ± 16.9) ml, (37.1 ± 3.4) mm vs. (38.9 ± 3.6) mm, (50.3 ± 3.6) mm vs. (52.5 ± 4.7) mm, (64.0 ± 6.8)% vs. (59.6 ± 6.5)%, (2.39 ± 0.38) L vs. (2.10 ± 0.26) L, (77.7 ± 4.0)% vs. (73.8 ± 4.3)%, (101.6 ± 18.7) L/min vs. (89.6 ± 11.1) L/min, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). After treatment for 12 weeks, the cardiopulmonary endurance indicators peak oxygen uptake (VO 2peak), peak oxygen uptake per kilogram of body weight (VO 2peak/kg), anaerobic threshold (AT), peak metabolic equivalent (METspeak), maximum working load (MWL) in the rehabilitation group were obviously improved compared with the control group: (1 441.8 ± 251.9) ml/min vs. (1 272.5 ± 207.0) ml/min, (20.7 ± 3.6) ml/(min·kg) vs. (18.2 ± 2.5) ml/(min·kg), (1 346.8 ± 201.3) ml/min vs. (1 075.4 ± 176.7) ml/min, (5.9 ± 1.1) Met vs. (5.2 ± 0.7) Met, (107.3 ± 29.1) Watt vs. (88.4 ± 17.8)Watt, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). After treatment for 12 weeks, the ADL scores in the rehabilitation group was higher than that in the control group: (90.9 ± 8.1) scores vs. (85.6 ± 11.6) scores, there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Carrying out cardiac rehabilitation exercise guided by cardiopulmonary exercise test can significantly enhance the cardiopulmonary function, cardiopulmonary endurance and self-care ability in patients who had accepted PCI for coronary heart disease.

The emergence of high virulent mutant strains of infectious bursal disease virus(IBDV)becomes a serious threat to the poultry industry.However,the live attenuated IBDV vaccine can potentially revert to a virulent strain.Therefore,it is a necessary to develop safe and effective IB-DV-associated vaccines.The construction of a recombinant Marek's disease(MD)vaccine strain,CVI988,expressing the IBDV VP2 protein,can protect against disease induced by both IBDV and Marek's disease virus(MDV).Here,the IBDV-VP2 gene was integrated into the UL55 locus of CVI988 by bacterial artificial chromosome(BAC)technique,resulting in the recombinant virus CVI988 BAC-VP2.The recombinant virus was characterized by PCR,IFA and subsequently the bi-ological properties of the recombinant virus were investigated.The results showed that the recom-binant virus CVI988 BAC-VP2 was successfully rescued.The VP2 protein stably expressed in chick-en embryo fibroblasts(CEF).The growth kinetics and plague size assays showed that there was comparable replication ability between recombinant virus and parental virus.This study provides the basis for the development of a low-cost vaccine against both IBDV and MDV infections.

Cancer stands as one of the predominant causes of mortality globally, necessitating ongoing efforts to develop innovative therapeutics. Historically, natural products have been foundational in the quest for anticancer agents. Bulbocodin D (BD) and Bulbocodin C (BC), two bibenzyls derived from Pleione bulbocodioides (Franch.) Rolfe, have demonstrated notable in vitro anticancer activity. In human lung cancer A549 cells, the IC_50s for BD and BC were 11.63 and 11.71 μmol·L^-1, respectively. BD triggered apoptosis, as evidenced by an upsurge in Annexin V-positive cells and elevated protein expression of cleaved-PARP in cancer cells. Furthermore, BD and BC markedly inhibited the migratory and invasive potentials of A549 cells. The altered genes identified through RNA-sequencing analysis were integrated into the CMap dataset, suggesting BD's role as a potential signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) inhibitor. SwissDock and MOE analyses further revealed that both BD and BC exhibited a commendable binding affinity with STAT3. Additionally, a surface plasmon resonance assay confirmed the direct binding affinity between these compounds and STAT3. Notably, treatment with either BD or BC led to a significant reduction in p-STAT3 (Tyr 705) protein levels, regardless of interleukin-6 stimulation in A549 cells. In addition, the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) was activated after BD or BC treatment. An enhancement in cancer cell mortality was observed upon combined treatment of BD and U0126, the MEK1/2 inhibitor. In conclusion, BD and BC emerge as promising novel STAT3 inhibitors with potential implications in cancer therapy.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of Mycoplasma pneumoniae ( Mp) in children undergoing physical examination. Methods:This study randomly enrolled 1 303 children at the age of 6-12 years who underwent physical examination in 2023. Their oral and pharyngeal swabs as well as venous blood samples were collected. The prevalence of Mp in these subjects was detected using isolation and culturing, nucleic acid detection and serological test. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results:Among the 1 303 children, the detection rate of Mp was 4.1% (53/1 303) by culturing, 7.3% (95/1 303) by nucleic acid detection and 13.6% (177/1 303) by serological test. Statistical analysis showed that there were significant differences in the the detection rates of Mp among children undergoing physical examination between the three methods ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The detection rate of Mp in children undergoing physical examination in 2023 was about 4.1%. Isolation and culturing was more accurate than nucleic acid detection and serological test in the detection of Mp in healthy population as the latter two methods would overestimate the rate.

Objective:To compare the clinical features, laboratory test results and imaging findings between cases of Mycoplasma pneumoniae ( Mp) infection complicated by coagulation dysfunction and isolated Mp infection, and analyze the predictive value of related indicators for Mp infection with coagulation dysfunction. Methods:A total of 65 cases of Mp infection complicated by coagulation dysfunction (case group) and 92 cases of isolated Mp infection (control group) treated in the Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics in 2021 were enrolled. Clinical data of the two groups were compared, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn to analyze the predictive value of differential indicators to the case group. Results:There were no significant differences in the general clinical features or imaging findings between the case group and the control group. The levels of fibrinogen (FIB), D-Dimer, fibrinogen degradation product (FDP), IgE, lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), adenosine deaminase (ADA) and C-reactive protein (CRP), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), blood platelet count (PLT), neutrophil count, length of hospital stay, peak body temperature, and duration of cough and fever in the case group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The areas under ROC curves of LDH, CRP, peak body temperature, ADA, ALT, neutrophil count, AST and IgE for predicting Mp infection complicated by coagulation dysfunction were 0.855, 0.810, 0.730, 0.716, 0.692, 0.648, 0.631 and 0.603, respectively. The area under ROC curve of LDH, CRP and peak body temperature used in combination was 0.901. Conclusions:LDH, CRP, peak body temperature, ADA, ALT, neutrophil count, AST and IgE had predictive value for Mp infection complicated by coagulation dysfunction, among which LDH, CRP and peak body temperature had higher predictive value. LDH, CRP and peak body temperature used in combination had the highest diagnostic value (AUC=0.901).

Ectopic thyroid (ETG) is a thyroid tissue located outside the normal anatomical position, often occurring in the chest. Clinical symptoms are related to its location and its impact on adjacent structures. In ETG imaging examination, single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) nuclide imaging of thyroid perchlorate ( 99Tc mO 4-) is the most commonly used method for localization and characterization. ETG with normal function shows high radiation uptake in the corresponding area. For difficult to distinguish tumors in the base of the tongue and the thyrohyoid region, 131I or 123I imaging with more specificity for thyroid tissue uptake is needed. ETG exhibits a variety of manifestations in computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), mostly irregular soft tissue density masses with clear boundaries and uneven density. There are low-density cystic changes or high-density calcifications within the masses, with uneven or uniform enhancement. In ultrasound, ETG is mainly hypoechoic, with some showing cystic solid echoes and abundant blood flow signals within the gland. Asymptomatic ETG patients usually do not require treatment, while symptomatic patients often require surgical resection and have a good prognosis. Before surgery, relevant examinations should be combined to clarify the nature of the tumor as much as possible, to avoid permanent hypothyroidism caused by misdiagnosis and misresection.

【Objective】 To investigate the profile of Rh blood group antigen in pregnant women and hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) in Qingdao area. 【Methods】 10 597 pregnant women admitted in our hospital during October 2016 to February 2020 were selected and the ABO, Rh blood group system antigen (D, C, c, E, e) and the irregular antibody were detected, and positive antibody was further identified. The irregular antibody of Rh blood group in pregnant women was statistically analyzed according to the history of blood transfusion and pregnancy. Twelve HDN cases were studied, and the results of ABO, Rh blood group antigen and irregular antibody, antibody property identification, HDN test and blood routine test were retrospectively analyzed. 【Results】 Among 10 513 cases of Rh-positive pregnant women, the common phenotype was CCee>CcEe>Ccee>ccEE>ccEe; among 84 cases of Rh-negative pregnant wome, the common phenotype was ccee>Ccee> CCee> ccEE>ccEe. The positive rate of irregular antibody was 1.06% (112/10597) in 10 597 pregnant women, of which the Rh antibody was the highest, rated at 56.25% (63/112). For 64 pregnant women with positive antibodies, antibodies against Rh system were different from those against other systems when stratified by the history of blood transfusion (P<0.05) and pregnancy (P<0.05). Twelve neonates were diagnosed with Rh-HDN, with IgG anti-E in 6 cases, IgG anti-D 3, IgG anti-cE 1, IgG anti-C 1and IgG anti-c 1. Among them, 3 were seriously ill and treated with blood exchange. 【Conclusion】 As two-child policy was implemented, the incidence of Rh HDN had increased. ABO, RhD, C, c, E and e matched transfusion should be administered for women at childbearing age. Meanwhile, clinical termination of delivery was recommended for pregnant women, who probably develop Rh-HDN and are with critical situation. Rh phenotype matched fresh blood should be prepared, which has great clinical significance for rescuing newborns.
