Objective:To explore the mechanism by which Pien Tze Huang improves liver Kupffer cell damage induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) by regulating the expression of miR-155.Methods:LPS induced liver Kupffer cells to establish a cell injury model to simulate septic liver injury. RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression of miR-155 in damaged cells, and RT-qPCR, Western Blot, ELISA and flow cytometry were used to evaluate the inflammatory response and apoptosis of damaged cells. Then we treated LPS-induced Kupffer cells with Pien Tze Huang at different concentrations (0 mg/L, 5 mg/L, 10 mg/L and 15 mg/L), and detected the expression of miR-155 in the cells, the inflammatory response of the cells and Apoptosis rate. MiR-155 was silenced in the cell injury model, and RT-qPCR, Western Blot, ELISA and flow cytometry were used to evaluate the effect of miR-155 on inflammatory response and apoptosis of model cells. Overexpression of miR-155 in damaged cells treated with Pien Tze Huang was used to detect changes in cellular inflammatory response and apoptosis. Data are expressed in the form of mean ± standard deviation, and each group of data is analyzed using t test or one-way analysis of variance.Results:In the LPS-induced liver Kupffer cell injury model, the expression of miR-155 was significantly increased ( P<0.05), the expression levels of pro-inflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly increased, and the anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 was significantly increased. was inhibited ( P<0.05), and the cell apoptosis rate was significantly increased ( P<0.05). After Pien Tze Huang treatment, the expression of miR-155 in damaged liver cells was inhibited ( P<0.05), the levels of cellular inflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α were inhibited, and the expression of anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 was promoted ( P<0.05). Inhibit cell apoptosis ( P<0.05). Silencing miR-155 reduced the inflammatory response and apoptosis rate of cells ( P<0.05). Overexpression of miR-155 can reverse the effect of Pien Tze Huang on liver cell injury ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In the model of LPS-induced liver Kupffer cell injury, Pien Tze Huang can inhibite the inflammatory response and apoptosis of cells by inhibiting the expression of miR-155.

There are gradual increases in the incidence rates of metabolic associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD） and type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM）， with close relationship and mutual interaction between the two diseases， but the specific mechanism is still unclear. Studies have shown that T2DM and MAFLD may cause aggravation of each other through insulin resistance， inflammation， some hepatocyte factors， and cellular senescence and protect each other through some hepatocyte factors. Further research on the association between T2DM and MAFLD and the mechanism of comorbidity is of great significance for the clinical prevention and treatment of the two diseases.

Public hospitals in the face of COVID-19, should prioritize medical services of patients as the topmost task. In order to ensure the smooth progress of diagnosis and treatment, and prevent the occurrence of nosocomial infection, the hospital took an overall response strategy featuring " logistics support mode 3+ 1" . This strategy requires to make facilities ready by transforming isolation wards, overall management and deployment of protection supplies, optimizing logistics service flow, strict sterilization and isolation of medical wastes and environment, optimizing catering service within the hospital to reduce the gathering and flow of personnel. It also enhanced personnel training, to eliminate staff panic and to stabilize the logistics support team. Meanwhile, the logistics department took over the hospital access screening work for tight access control, which maximize the safety and reliability of the logistics support within the hospital, and ensure the smooth progress of the epidemic prevention work.

At present, we are fighting against the outbreak of COVID-19 in China.For the purposes of diagnosis and treatment of these patients, Hangzhou Xixi Hospital, as a designated hospital, made available the wards quickly, initiated the management system of public health emergencies, and established a " tolerate admission-strict discharge" patients management program. Meanwhile, the hospital has established an emergency supply and coordinated distribution mechanism for medical protection materials, and a full-system and multi-model training system, ensuring smooth progress of the diagnosis and treatment work.

Nowadays hospitals have been at the forefront fighting against novel coronavirus pneumonia, with diagnosing and treating of patients as a top priority. In order to ensure the smooth progress of diagnosis and treatment, and prevent the occurrence of nosocomial infection, logistics support needs to make allowances for the isolation ward in time from the perspectives of logistics, facilities and equipment, and to transform the in-and-out double channels of ward access as required, thus setting up the partition of the three zones. Secondly, logistics support needs to optimize the logistics service workflow, including the medical waste management, the environmental disinfection isolation, and to optimize the catering service within hospitals to reduce the gathering and flow of personnel. Thirdly, logistics support needs to increase personnel training, and to eliminate psychological panic as well as to stabilize the logistics support team by putting logistics management cadres on the front line. Meanwhile, the logistics department needs to take over the hospital access screening work, strictly manage those who enter the hospital, maximize the safety and reliability of the logistics support within the hospital, and ensure the smooth progress of the epidemic prevention work.

At present, we are fighting against the outbreak of novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP) in China. For the purposes of diagnosis and treatment of NCP patients, Hangzhou Xixi Hospital, as a designated hospital, make available the wards quickly, initiated the management system of public health emergencies, and established a "tolerate admission- strict discharge" patients management program. Meanwhile, the hospital has established an emergency supply and coordinated distribution mechanism for medical protection materials, and a full-system and multi-model training system, ensuring smooth progress of the diagnosis and treatment work.

Objective This study aims to investigate the post-transcriptional regulatory effects that control proliferation, apoptosis, and invasion in pediatriccholesteatoma keratinocytes.In particular, the potential role of miR-21was focused on in this study.Methods A total of 23 pediatric cholesteatoma tissues were processed for cell culture.Pediatriccholesteatoma keratinocytes were transfected with miR-21 inhibitors, or negative control miRNAs.RT-PCR was used to assess the expression levels of miR-21.EdU incorporation assay and TUNEL staining were used to assess the proliferation and apoptosis of pediatric cholesteatomakeratinocytes, respectively.Results MiRNA-21 was downregulated when pediatric cholesteatoma keratinocytes were transfected with miR-21 inhibitors.Furthermore, the number of proliferative EdU+cells decreased in cholesteatoma keratinocytes transfected with miR-21 inhibitors;and the number of TUNEL-positive cells also increased in cells transfected with miR-21 inhibitors, compared with cells transfected control miRNA.Conclusion MiRNA-21 promotes the proliferation and inhibits apoptosis of pediatric cholesteatoma keratinocytes.

BACKGROUND: There are many in vitro selection method of sperm, and swim-up and density gradient centrifugation are commonly used. It remains unclear which method minimizes bad stimulation to the sperm and select sperm with high fertilization potential. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of swim-up and gradient centrifugation preparation techniques on intrauterine insemination (IUI).METHODS: A computer-based online search of Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE databases was performed, and some related journals were manually searched for related articles published between January 1966 and February 2009. The quality of included randomized controlled trials (RCT) and q-randomized trials (Q-RCT) was evaluated and Meta-analysis was conducted by the Cochrane Collaboration's software RevMan5.0. Experts.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A total of 6 studies were included, involving 4 RCTs and 2 Q-RCTs. A total of 486 patients (1 099 IUI cycles) were enrolled. The Meta-analysis indicated that there was no difference between swim-up and gradient centrifugation preparation techniques for the IUI in terms of cycle pregnancy rates [OR = 1.11, 95%CI(0.8,1.55)], miscarriage rates [OR = 0.31, 95%CI(0.09,1.04)], sperm count [the weight mean difference (WMD) =-0.89, 95%CI(-14.17,12.38)], sperm motility [WMD = -2.31, 95%CI(-7.27,2.65)]. There is insufficient evidence to confirm which is the best method in the two specific preparation techniques. The quality of study methods should be improved. And more measure parameters should be included when comparing it before or after treatment, such as sperm motility, sperm count, sperm function.
