Because the subvariant BA.2 shows strong infectivity, fast transmission, strong immune escape ability, relatively mild symptoms, strong concealment, difficult to find and so on, it has gradually become a new challenge during the COVID-19 pandemic. Understanding the virological characteristics of Omicron sub-lineage BA.2 is of great significance for epidemic prevention and control. This paper briefly summarizes the virological characteristics and prevention and control strategies of Omicron sub-lineage BA.2.

Methods: Thirty-six Wistar rats were randomly grouped, nine were in normal control group without any treatment, and the remaining 27 were surgically modelled in the right eyes. Eighteen of these rats were randomly divided into a Wei's triple nine needling therapy group and a model group of nine rats each after the TON model was made using the transverse quantitative retraction method. The other 9 rats were sham-operated, and only the optic nerve was exposed without retraction. On the next day of modelling, the Wei's triple nine needling therapy group was treated with Wei's triple nine needling therapy for 20 minutes/1 time/1 day for 14 days. The model group, sham-operated group and normal control group were not intervened. Wei's triple nine acupoints were represented as follows: 1st link: "Jingming" (BL1) and " Chengqi" (ST1); 2nd link: "Sizhukong" (SJ23) penetrating "Taiyang" (EX-HN5); and the third: "Fengchi" (GB 20) and "Taichong" (LV3). The FVEP of each group was observed on 1d, 7d and 14d.The FVEP of each group was observed on 1d, 7d and 14d. Results: Compared with the model group, the N2 wave latency and P2 wave latency were shortened in the Wei's triple nine needling therapy on 1d (P < 0.05, P < 0.01); on 7d, their N2 wave latency was shortened (P < 0.01) and the N2-P2 wave amplitude was increased compared with the model group (P < 0.05); on 14d, their P2 wave latency was shortened (P < 0.05) and the N2-P2 wave amplitude was increased. There was no statistical difference in N2 wave latency, P2 wave latency and N2-P2 wave amplitude in the sham-operated group on 1d, 7d and 14d (P > 0.05). The delayed N2 and P2 wave latencies in the model group did not improve from 1d to 14d (P > 0.05) and the amplitude decreased throughout, showing a significant difference on 14d compared to 1d (P < 0.05). In contrast, the N2 wave latency in Wei's triple nine needling therapy group was not significantly different until 7d to 14d (P < 0.05); its P2 wave latency, although significantly delayed from 1d to 7d (P < 0.05), recovered on 14d and reached a level that was not statistically different from 1d and 7d (P > 0.05). There was also no significant decrease in N2-P2 wave amplitude between 1d and 14d in Wei's triple nine needling therapy group (P > 0.05). Conclusion: In this experiment, the TON rat model was successfully established by the transverse quantitative retraction method, and the treatment of TON rats with Wei's triple nine needling therapy reduced the P2 wave delay of the FVEP electrophysiological signal and increased the N2-P2 amplitude, which had a certain positive effect on the repair of optic nerve injury, probably related to its effect of improving the conduction function of the optic nerve and protecting the retinal ganglion cells that had not been degenerated and necrosed.

Methods: The mRNA and miRNA sequencing data of all HCC samples were downloaded from the tumor Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and the R program was used to analyze the difference of the sequencing data. The data of survival time, survival status and differential expression of miRNA were combined, and the risk score model of miRNA was constructed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression. The miRNA target genes and all the corresponding Epigenetic factors were predicted, and the differentially expressed Epigenetic factors (DEEFs) were screened.Then, the regulatory network of miRNA targeting deefs was established, the apparent factors in the network were enriched and analyzed, and the core genes in the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and selection network were constructed. Finally, the relationship between the apparent factors and the prognosis of patients was analyzed and verified by Kaplan Meier (K-M) method. Results: 305 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified using EDGE algorithm. After Cox analysis, hsa-miR-139-5p, hsa-miR-101-3p and hsa-miR-7-5p (miR-139-5p, miR-101-3p and miR-7-5p) were finally screened as the Overall survival of HCC patients (Overall survival,OS). In addition, 34 DEEFs targeted by miRNAs were identified, among which EZH2, PKM, HJURP and CHEK1 had a significant impact on the survival of hepatocellular carcinoma. Conclusion: In this study, we successfully established a prognostic model of hepatocellular carcinoma miRNA-targeted epigenetics, and screened out epigenetic factors that are significantly related to the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma. It provides new potential prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for HCC treatment, and lays a theoretical foundation for the follow-up basic research of HCC.

    查看更多>>摘要:Objective: Shengmai injection is a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of angina pectoris. However, there is still a lack of high-quality clinical research evidence for the treatment effect of Shengmai injection for angina pectoris. Real-world studies based on large samples can provide Shengmai injection. Researches on the treatment of angina pectoris with Shengmai injection provide important evidence. Methods: This article is based on the information collected by the hospital information system (HIS) database of 22 tertiary A general hospitals for all patients who used Shengmai injection and those who did not use Shengmai injection. The propensity scoring method was used to evaluate the possible existence of the research data. The confounding factors are controlled. Through the general Logistic regression analysis method, the propensity score weighted Logistic regression analysis method and the propensity score weighted Logistic regression analysis method with covariates, the therapeutic effect of Shengmai injection on angina pectoris was explored. Results: Three kinds of logistic regression analysis showed that there were statistical differences in the treatment effect of Shengmai injection on angina pectoris in the group without Shengmai injection. Propensity score weighted logistic regression analysis with covariates balanced the effect of multiple confounding factors. Using real-world data to construct a retrospective cohort study confirmed the clinical effectiveness of Shengmai injection in the treatment of angina pectoris, and at the same time confirmed the wide application of Shengmai injection in angina pectoris complicated with multiple organ failure. Conclusion: Shengmai injection is effective in the treatment of angina pectoris. The weighted method of propensity score removes confounding factors, which improves the reliability of real-world research results.

The cause of recurrent spontaneous abortion is complicated, in addition to the well-defined genetic, anatomical, infection and endocrine factors, and there are still some unknown causes, which is called as unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion, accounting for 40% of recurrent abortion. At present, there are a lot of researches on the treatment methods of the patients with the unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion, which also shows that the treatment of traditional Chinese and Western medicine all have certain clinical application effect. Western medicine clinical methods mainly includes immunotherapy, immunosuppressive therapy, anticoagulation therapy, progesterone therapy, etc. Based on the experience of the professor and combined with many years of clinical practice, the author believes that the pathogenesis of this disease in traditional Chinese medicine is mainly due to impaired impulse and deficiency of Spleen, lack of qi and blood,can not nourishing the fetus; deficiency of Kidney Qi, blood flow was delayed, and blood stasis and could not raise the fetus. Clinical treatment is based on invigorating the kidney, tonifying spleen and nourishing blood, promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis and dredging collaterals. Oral Chinese medicine combined with external acupuncture and moxibustion has achieved excellent effects in improving pregnancy rate. This article reviews the domestic and foreign methods of treating unexplained recurrent miscarriage in order to provide clinical reference. In the future, the combination of Chinese and Western medicine should become the main therapy to increase pregnancy rate.
