Objective To analyze the innate circuit qi endowment of patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis(SAR)in Renyin year(Ren-Yin stem-branch year of Chinese lunar calendar).Methods A retrospective study was conducted in 8 918 SAR patients who were treated in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology of Xiyuan Hospital,China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences in pollen seasons of the spring and autumn(i.e.,the period of March 5 to May 21,and the period of August 7 to September 23)in 2022(Renyin year).The characteristics of circuit qi at birth date of the SAR patient were analyzed.Results The occurrence of SAR in Renyin year was related to the suiyun(yearly circuit phase),sitian(the first half of the alterable yearly circuit qi),dominant qi,and circuit qi combination.The two-factor model analysis showed that the occurrence of SAR in Renyin year was closely related with suiyun-sitian and dominant qi-guest qi.High morbidity of SAR was shown in the patients born in the year of heavenly-stem Ren and earthly-branch Xu,and with the circuit qi features of five circuits being wood circuit,Suiyun being excessive wood circuit,sitian of yangming dryness-gold,zaiquan(the second half of the alterable yearly circuit qi)of shaoyin monarch-fire,dominant qi being yangming dryness-gold,and circuit qi combination being disharmony.The two-factor model analysis showed that the morbidity of SAR was increased in the year with the circuit qi features of suiyun-sitian being excessive wood circuit and taiyang cold-water,and the combination of dominant qi and guest qi being yangming dryness-gold and taiyang cold-water.Conclusion Among the innate circuit qi factors,suiyun,sitian,dominant qi,and circuit qi combination have an impact on the occurrence of SAR.The interaction between innate circuit qi and circuit qi at onset may be one of the important mechanisms leading to the occurrence of SAR.

This study aims to investigate the function of lmo2363 gene in stress resistance of Liste-ria monocytogenes strain LM83-1.In this study,the lmo2363 gene deletion strain and complement-ation strain of Listeria monocytogenes were constructed using overlapping extended PCR and ho-mologous recombination techniques,and the growth ability,stress survival rate and biofilm forma-tion ability of wild,deletion strain and complementation strain were compared under different stress environments.lmo2363 gene deletion strain and complementation strain of Listeria monocy-togenes were successfully constructed in this experiment.The growth curves showed that the growth capacity of the deletion strain was weaker than the wild strain LM83-1 under 4 ℃,7％NaCl,10％NaCl,3.5％ethanol,4.0％ethanol and pH5 stress(P＜0.001).The results of stress survival test showed that the survival rate of the deletion strain was significantly lower than the wild strain after 1 h treatment with pH3 and 10 mmol/L H2 O2 stress(P＜0.010).The biofilm forming ability of the deletion strain was decreased compared with that of the wild strain(P＜0.050).This study confirmed that lmo2363 gene mediated the adaptation of LM to low temperature,high osmotic pressure,ethanol and acid stress environment and affected the formation of LM bio-film.This study laid a foundation for further exploring the function of lmo2363 gene in the stress resistance process of Listeria monocytogenes.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of hypomethylating agent therapy in chronic myelomonocytic leukemia(CMML).Methods:From February 2014 to June 2021,the clinical data,efficacy,survival time and safety of CMML patients diagnosed in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University and treated with hypomethylating agent therapy were retrospectively analyzed.Results:A total of 25 CMML patients received hypomethylating agent therapy,including 18 cases treated with decitabine(DEC)and 7 cases treated with azacytidine(AZA)as the basic treatment.Among them,20 patients responded,and 7 patients got complete remission(CR).All patients with CR were treated with DEC as the basic treatment.Five cases of CR occurred in the first 4 courses of treatment.After a median follow-up of 16.4(9.4-20.5)months,4 patients with CR progressed to acute myeloid leukemia(AML).The median overall survival(OS)time of 25 CMML patients was 17.4 months(95％CI:12.437-22.363).According to MD Anderson prognostic scoring system(MDAPS),CMML-specific prognostic scoring system(CPSS),CPSS molecular(CPSS-mol),Mayo molecular model(MMM),risk stratification of patients was performed,and the difference only between different risk stratification of MDAPS and survival time was statistically significant.Common adverse reactions of hypomethylating agent therapy in CMML patients included infection,gastrointestinal reaction,hematological toxicity,skin allergy and liver function damage.All patients'symptoms were improved after corresponding treatment.Conclusion:Hypomethylating agent therapy is effective and safe for CMML patients.CR mostly occurs in the first 4 courses of treatment,and hypomethylating agent therapy combined with low-dose chemotherapy can be used for patients who do not respond.Hypomethylating agent therapy can delay the disease,but can't prevent progression.

Objective To investigate the dynamic expression with the time change of N6-methyladenosine(m6A)methylation-related factors in the repair process of skeletal muscle injury and its mechanism in the inflammatory response of macrophage in the injure process.Methods In vivo mice models of BaCl2 injury in the gastrocnemius were established.Four mice per group in the control group and injury group.Gastrocnemius tissues were harvested at day 1,3,5,7,and 9 after injury for experiments.Primary gastrocnemius muscle tissue cells,muscle satellite cells,muscle cells,and cell line C2C12 cells were treated with dexamethasone(DEX,50 μmol/L)to mimic injury.Lipopolysaccharide(LPS,100 μg/L)induced RAW264.7 cell lines to mimic the inflammatory response after skeletal muscle injury,and STM2457(30 μmol/L)was added to inhibit the effect of methyltransferase 3(Mettl3)before LPS treatment.The expression of m6A methylation-related factors(Writers,Erasers,Readers)and inflammation factors were detected by Real-time PCR and Western blotting.Results The muscle fibers were dissolved and then gradually repaired with the extension of injury time,the number of monocytes/macrophages increased first and then decreased,and the Pax7 mRNA level increased first and then decreased with the change of injury time.Compared with the control group,the mRNA and protein levels of m6A methylation-related factors in gastrocnemius did not change significantly on the injury-1 day.However,they were significantly increased on the injury-3 days compared with the control group(P＜0.05),and then obviously decreased on the injury-5 days group compared with the injury-3 days group(P＜0.05).Compared with the control group,they were no significant differences on the injury-7 days group and-9 days group.In vitro DEX decreased the mRNA levels of m6A methyltransferase factors in primary muscle satellite cells and C2C12 cells and increased the mRNA expression level of methylation-recognition enzyme factors(P＜0.05).The mRNA levels of m6A methylation-related factors increased significantly in skeletal muscle tissue cells and myocytes after DEX treatment(P＜0.05).After LPS treatment,the mRNA and protein expression levels of m6A methylation-related factors and the mRNA expression levels of inflammatory factors interleukin(IL)-6 and IL-1β in macrophages increased significantly(P＜0.05),while the levels of IL-6 and IL-1β mRNA in macrophages decreased significantly when the Mettl3 was inhibited(P＜0.05).Conclusion m6A methylation-related factors primarily is activated in the damaged muscle cells and inflammation response of macrophages.Inhibition of m6A methyltransferase can reduce the inflammatory response of macrophages.

Objective:To investigate the psychological status of the outpatients in the andrology clinic and the effect of risk warning combined with multidisciplinary team(MDT)intervention on their satisfaction.Methods:Using convenience sampling,we enrolled 600 outpatients seeking medical attention in the Department of Andrology of our hospital from July to October 2022.We ran-domized the patients into a control(n=300)and an observation group(n=300),obtained their basic information,evaluated their psychological status with the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale(HADS),and assessed their satisfaction with the Xijing Hospital Outpatients'Satisfaction Questionnaire(HOSQ).The controls followed the routine procedure of treatment,while the patients in the ob-servation group received early warning before intervention based on their HADS scores.We provided normal medical care for those with HADS scores≤7,employed empathetic communication for those with HADS scores of 8-10,and conducted MDT intervention for those with HADS scores≥1l,followed by comparison of the patients'satisfaction with the outpatient service between the two groups.Results:There were no statistically significant differences in general conditions between the groups of patients(P＞0.05).The mean prevalence rate of anxiety and depression was 47.83％among the male subjects,lower in the control than in the observation group(47.00％vs 48.67％,P＞0.05),but higher in the patients with the education of junior high school or below(60.99％)than in those with that of senior high school(22.34％)and university or above(16.67％),and also higher in those aged 18-40 years(67.38％)than in those aged 41-60 years(51.82％)and over 60 years old(38.33％).A significantly higher rate of satisfaction with the outpatient service was found in the observation group than in the controls(97.18％vs 90.39％,P＜0.05).Conclusion:Anxie-ty and depression are prevalent among the outpatients in the andrology clinic,with a higher prevalence rate in those with lower educa-tion and at a younger age.Early risk warning combined with MDT intervention can improve the satisfaction of the patients.

Objective: To analyze the direct economic burden caused by measles cases in Shanghai from 2017 to 2019 and its influencing factors. Methods: A total of 161 laboratory-confirmed measles cases reported from January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2019, in Shanghai were included in the study through the "Measles Surveillance Information Reporting and Management System" of the "China Disease Surveillance Information Reporting and Management System". Through telephone follow-up and consulting hospital data, the basic information of population, medical treatment situation, medical treatment costs and other information were collected, and the direct economic burden of cases was calculated, including registration fees, examination fees, hospitalization fees, medical fees and other disease treatment expenses, as well as transportation and other expenses of cases. The multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the main influencing factors of the direct economic burden. Results: The age of 161 measles cases M (Q₁, Q₃) was 28.21 (13.33, 37.00) years. Male cases (56.52%) were more than female cases (43.48%). The largest number of cases was≥18 years old (70.81%). The total direct economic burden of 161 measles cases was 540 851.14 yuan, and the per capita direct economic burden was 3 359.32 yuan. The direct economic burden M (Q₁, Q₃) was 873.00 (245.01, 4 014.79) yuan per person. The results of multiple linear regression model analysis showed that compared with other and unknown occupations, central areas and non-hospitalized cases, the direct economic burden of measles cases was higher in scattered children, childcare children, students, and cadre staff in the occupational distribution, suburban areas and hospitalized, with the coefficient of β (95%CI) values of 0.388 (0.150-0.627), 0.297 (0.025-0.569), 0.327 (0.148-0.506) and 1.031 (0.853-1.209), respectively (all P values<0.05). Conclusion: The direct economic burden of some measles cases in Shanghai is relatively high. Occupation, area of residence and hospitalization are the main factors influencing the direct economic burden of measles cases.
