Methods: A total of 85 elderly patients with lung cancer treated in our hospital from May 2022 to May 2023 were included as the study population for this research. They were divided into a study group of 42 cases and a regular group of 43 cases. The regular group of elderly patients received routine nursing care, while the study group of elderly patients was provided with the operating room nursing care work procedure sheet. The surgical duration, intraoperative blood loss, time to mobilization, and postoperative complication rate were compared and analyzed between the two groups. Results: Compared to the regular group, the study group had significantly shorter surgical duration and time to mobilization, as well as less intraoperative blood loss (P < 0.05). The overall incidence of postoperative complications in the study group (4.76%) was significantly lower than that in the regular group (19.05%) (P Conclusion: Formulating the operating room nursing work procedure sheet for elderly lung cancer patients can effectively improve surgical efficiency, reduce the incidence of postoperative complications, and promote patient prognosis in thoracoscopic radical surgery. Therefore, this model is worth promoting and adopting in clinical practice.展开更多

Methods: From June 2021 to December 2021, 78 patients who underwent gastric cancer surgery in our hospital were selected for research. Combined with the random number table method, they were divided into the control group (providing routine nursing care in operating room) and the observation group (providing nursing intervention in operating room) with 39 patients in each group respectively. The body temperature of the two groups during operation, during abdominal closure and after operation, the time of leaving anesthesia room, extubation, postoperative wakefulness and hospitalization, degree of satisfaction with nursing work was compared. Results: Compared with the control group, the body temperature in the observation group tended to be more normal during operation, during abdominal closure and after operation (P 0.05). The time of leaving anesthesia room, extubation, postoperative wakefulness and hospitalization in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group (P 0.05). The satisfaction degree of the observation group with nursing work was higher than that of the control group (P 0.05). Conclusion: Nursing intervention in operating room is effective for gastric cancer patients in anesthesia recovery period, which can maintain their perioperative temperature stability, promote their postoperative recovery and enhance their satisfaction with nursing work.

With the emergence of the post-genome era in the 21 st century, individualized precision medicine has attracted increasing attention. In traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）, there is also concept of individualized medicine, which is known as the Chinese constitutional theory, proposed in the 1970s （Wang, 2012）. According to this theory, the human population is divided into nine constitutions, including one balanced constitution （Normality） and eight unbalanced constitutions （Yang-deficient, Yin-deficient, Qi-deficient,展开更多

In the present study, we found that D. latiflorus leaf extract(DLE) reduced fasting blood glucose levels, body weight,and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol with low liver toxicity in db/db mice. In addition, gene expression profiling was performed and pathway enrichment analysis showed that DLE affected metabolic pathways.Importantly, DLE activated the AKT signaling pathway and reduced glucose production by downregulating glucose-6-phosphatase(G6 PC) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1(PCK1) expression. Moreover, network pharmacology analysis identified rutin as an active component in DLE through targeting insulin growth factor 1 receptor(IGF1 R), an upstream signaling transducer of AKT. Due to its hypoglycemic effects and low toxicity, DLE may be considered an adjuvant treatment option for type 2 diabetes patients.展开更多

文摘Dear Editor, The term ＂individualized medicine＂ was first used in Bio- chemistry Individuality in 1956 by Williams （Williams et al., 1956）. With the emergence of the post-genome era in the 21 st century, individualized precision medicine has attracted increasing attention. In traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）, there is also concept of individualized medicine, which is known as the Chinese constitutional theory, proposed in the 1970s （Wang, 2012）. According to this theory, the human population is divided into nine constitutions, including one balanced constitution （Normality） and eight unbalanced constitutions （Yang-deficient, Yin-deficient, Qi-deficient,

文摘The application of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)has made great contributions to the fight against the epidemic of coronavirus disease-2019(COVID-19).Despite the remarkable therapeutic effects of TCM,the molecular mechanisms of TCM formulae inhibiting COVID-19 are still not fully understood.Here,we cφm-bined the automated high throughput sequencing-based high throughput screening(HTS^(2))assay with bioinformatics and computer-aided drug design(CADD)to investigate the molecular mechanisms of TCM-mediated therapeutic effects on COVID-19-related cytokine storm(Fig.1a).

文摘The potential medicinal value of Ma bamboo(Dendrocalamus latiflorus), one of the most popular and economically important bamboo species in China, has been underestimated. In the present study, we found that D. latiflorus leaf extract(DLE) reduced fasting blood glucose levels, body weight,and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol with low liver toxicity in db/db mice. In addition, gene expression profiling was performed and pathway enrichment analysis showed that DLE affected metabolic pathways.Importantly, DLE activated the AKT signaling pathway and reduced glucose production by downregulating glucose-6-phosphatase(G6 PC) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1(PCK1) expression. Moreover, network pharmacology analysis identified rutin as an active component in DLE through targeting insulin growth factor 1 receptor(IGF1 R), an upstream signaling transducer of AKT. Due to its hypoglycemic effects and low toxicity, DLE may be considered an adjuvant treatment option for type 2 diabetes patients.

文摘Dear Editor,The coronavirus infectious disease 2019(COVID-19)outbreak is seriously endangering human health.Most patients with severe COVID-19 are characterized by sustained cytokine production and hyper-inflammation,which is known as cytokine storm syndrome.1-3 Elaborating the anti-inflammatory response is crucial to these patients,and interieukin-6(IL6)inhibitors and steroids have been recommended in clinical practice.1 However,after the cytokine storm phase,the host immune response to sepsis may develop into a protracted immunosuppressive phase.
