Objective In the theories of pulse disgnosis in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),it is em-phasized that pulse manifestations at the radial artery within the wrist(called Cunkou)signi-fy the physiological and pathological conditions of different internal organs in the human body.However,different opinions exist among researchers about the objectiveness of the pulse diagnosis technique.Some researchers mentioned that no significant differences were observed in pulse manifestations at various Cunkou areas,hence there might be some diffi-culty in evaluating the status of different organs through checking pulse manifestations at Cunkou.This research aims to analyze the pulse response at Cunkou from the aspect of the characteristics of tactile sensing,thus to give a preliminary explanation to the above question. Methods This research utilized the Weber-Fechner law to model the tactile sensing as a dy-namic low-pass signal filter with varying bandwidths under different compression levels dur-ing pulse diagnosis.The model was applied to analyzing the clinical data collected previously by our group.The arterial pressures measured invasively with equipment from 14 patients with aorta coarctation were processed to simulate different pulse manifestations at Cun,Guan,and Chi positions of Cunkou when different compression levels were applied. Results Due to the characteristics of tactile sensing,significant variations were observed in pulse manifestations at different pulse-depths under the application of changing compres-sion levels;while no such changes in pulse manifestations were observed from the employ-ment of transducer only,without tactile sensing involved.The results explained why different understandings on pulse manifestations were formed between direct pulse-taking technique in TCM and modern sphygmography using transducers.The features of pulse manifestations at Cunkou,using direct pulse-taking technique but at different depths,superficial,middle,and deep positions,respectively,predicted by the developed tactile sensing model were in line with those described in TCM pulse theories. Conclusion Based on the developed tactile sensing model,this study preliminarily explains the phenomenon that pulse manifestation at Cunkou changes in response to the compression force applied during TCM pulse-taking.Integrating the tactile sensing model with the study of TCM pulse diagnosis opens a new chapter for visualizing and quantitatively interpreting pulse manifestations.This not only expands the scope of pulse diagnosis study effectively,but also provide a scientific basis for further technical upgrading and optimization of existing pulse di-agnosis equipment.

Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of circular RNA(circRNA)has_circ_0003304(circAZIN1)in regulating chondrocyte degeneration in osteoarthritis(OA).Methods Gene chip was used to detect the expression level of circRNA during the chondrogenic differentiation of human adipose-de-rived stem cells(hADSC).The circAZIN1 was further screened through the chondrocyte inflammation model constructed with interleukin-β(IL-β)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)from the top 10 circRNAs with the most differentiated expression detected by gene chip.Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain re-action PCR(qPCR)was used to detect the effect of circAZIN1 overexpression(transfected with pcDNA3.1-circAZIN1-EF1-ZsGreen plasmid)on the metabolism of chondrocyte extracellular matrix(ECM).RNA-Pull down test was conducted to detect the protein bound by circAZIN1,miRNA-circRNA Interactions predicted the microRNAs(miRNAs)and their sites that circAZIN1 may be sponge-adsorbed,further TargetMiner,miRDB and TargetScan databases were applied to predict miRNAs which circAZIN1 may sponge-adsorbed.circAZIN1,miRNA and downstream mRNA were detected to find whether there was mirror regulation phe-nomenon after overexpression of miRNA.Results CircAZIN1 had the most significant differential expression during the chondrogenic differentiation of hADSC(day 3 and day 21)and in the chondrocyty inflammation model constructed by IL-β,TNF-α(day 3 group vs.day 21 group,the conttrol group vs.the IL-β group,the control group vs.the TNF-α group).Overexpression of circAZIN1 could promote the ECM synthesis in chon-drocytes and inhibit its decomposition.RNA-Pull down test result showed that circAZIN1 obviously bound AGO2 protein,suggesting that circAZIN1 had a high possibility of sponge adsorbing miRNAs.Further data-base predicted that its downstream was hsa-miR-654-3p,and the downstream mRNA of hsa-miR-654-3p was CACNA1I.After the overexpression of hsa-miR-654-3p,qPCR test found that circAZIN1,hsa-miR-654-3p and CACNA1I had a mirror image regulation phenomenon.Conclusion circAZIN1 inhibits the silencing effect of CACNA1I through sponge adsorption of hsa-miR-654-3p and thus plays a role in inhibiting chondrocyte de-generation,which provides a reference for the study of the regulatory mechanism of circRNA in the develop-ment of OA.

Objective:To compare and analyze the efficacy and safety of intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) combined with conventional therapy (surgery combined with radiochemotherapy) and conventional therapy alone for pancreatic cancer.Methods:Literature review was conducted from PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, Chongqing VIP, CNKI, Wanfang Data and China Biomedical Literature Service System (SinoMed). The literatures that met the inclusion criteria were screened and the data were extracted. Meta-analysis was carried out by RevMan 5.4 software.Results:A total of 11 studies consisting of 813 patients were included. According to the combined results, compared with conventional therapy, IORT combined with conventional therapy could improve the overall survival rate of pancreatic cancer ( HR=0.66, 95% CI=0.54-0.81, Z=4.03, P<0.001), and did not increase the treatment-related side effects ( OR=1.00, 95% CI=0.69-1.46, Z=0.01, P=0.99), but failed to bring benefit to the local control rate ( HR=0.56, 95% CI=0.31-1.01, Z=1.93, P=0.05). Conclusions:The overall survival rate in the IORT combined with conventional therapy group is significantly better than that in the conventional therapy group. No significant difference is found in the treatment-related adverse reactions between two groups. IORT combined with conventional therapy is worthy of clinical application.
