Cardiovascular disease， such as coronary heart disease and acute myocardial infarction， is a leading cause of death globally. Due to the limited proliferative and regenerative capacity of adult mammalian cardiomyocytes （CMs）， any of the current therapies cannot reverse the massive loss of CMs and subsequent fibrosis resulting from cardiac injury. Mammals mainly rely on glycolysis in the embryonic stage and fatty acid oxidation after birth for energy production. Recent reports have indicated that this metabolic pattern switch is closely related to the loss of CM proliferation. In this review， we summarize the biological characteristics of CMs and advances in heart regeneration， meanwhile shed light on the important role of CMs energy metabolism in cardiac regeneration.

Intermittent hypoxia (IH) is an important pathophysiological feature of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but its molecular mechanism is still unclear. We aim to investigate the role of endogenous competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory network in the development of IH in OSA rats. An intermittent hypoxic rat model of OSA was constructed by hypoxic and reoxygenation cycles. CircRNAs and mRNAs were detected in rat bronchial tissues, and 230 up-regulated and 181 down-regulated circRNAs and 1238 up-regulated and 608 down-regulated mRNAs were analyzed and screened. The results of Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis of the differential circRNAs and mRNAs suggested that they were mainly associated with metabolic pathways and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways. The key circRNAs (the top six circRNAs with the largest differences) were further validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), chr9:52042693| 52047844 and chr4: 64889575|64899587 were expressed in bronchial tissues consistent with the sequencing results, which were used to further construct the ceRNA regulatory network. Four potential ceRNA regulatory networks were identified by TargetScan and miRanda database, combined with the results of differential circRNA and mRNA. The expression of molecules in the four potential ceRNA regulatory networks was detected by qRT-PCR in bronchial and lung tissues, and the results suggested that the expression of this regulatory network, chr9:52042693|52047844-miR-351-5p-Pten, was consistent with the sequencing results. The findings indicate that chr9:52042693 | 52047844-miR-351-5p-Pten may be involved in the development and progression of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome through a ceRNA mechanism.

AIM: To investigate the effect of lncRNA MALAT1 on the proliferation, migration and angiogenesis of retinal vascular endothelial cells and its molecular mechanism.METHODS: The expression levels of lncRNA MALAT1 in plasma of normal control group, diabetic without retinopathy group and diabetic retinopathy group were detected by qPCR and the effect of glucose culture on the expression levels of lncRNA MALAT1 were detected by qPCR too. The expression level of miR-124-3p was detected by qRT-PCR; Western blotting was used to detect the expression level of SOX7; The targeting relationship between lncRNA MALAT1 and miR-124-3p, miR-124-3p and SOX7 were detected by the dual-luciferase reporter system; CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell proliferation activity; Transwell assay was used to detect the migration ability of cells; Angiogenesis of hRMECs cells was measured by in vitro tube formation assay.RESULTS:The expression level of lncRNA MALAT1 in plasma of diabetic retinopathy patients was significantly higher than that of diabetic without retinopathy group and normal control group(P<0.001). In vitro glucose culture significantly promoted the expression of lncRNA MALAT1 in hRMECs cells, as well as the proliferation, migration and angiogenesis of hRMECs cells(all P<0.05). Knockdown of lncRNA MALAT1 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and tubule formation of hRMECs cells(all P<0.05). Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay showed that lncRNA MALAT1 targeted with miR-124-3p, and miR-124-3p targeted with SOX7. Overexpression of miR-124-3p significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration and tubule formation of hRMECs cells(all P<0.05). Overexpression of lncRNA MALAT1+miR-124-3p, miR-124-3p+SOX7, and knockdown of lncRNA MALAT1+overexpression of SOX7 all significantly eliminated the inhibitory effect of hRMECs cells(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: lncRNA MALAT1 promote the proliferation, migration and angiogenesis of retinal endothelial cells in diabetic retinopathy by down-regulating the negative regulation of miR-124-3p on SOX7. Therefore, abnormal upregulation of lncRNA MALAT1 in patients with diabetic retinopathy is a potential biomarker.

@#Objective To identify the effectiveness of physical therapy on neuromuscular control dysfunction of chronic ankle instability (CAI). Methods CAI physiotherapy-related systematic reviews, meta-analysis, randomized controlled studies and case-controlled studies were systematically searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, PEDro, EBSCO and CNKI from October 1st, 2010 to October 1st, 2020. After quality assessment, the research evidence regarding certain intervention was then graded according to the Oxford Center for Evidence-based Medicine. Results A total of 20 articles were included. Intervention based on unstable plane exercise training could significantly improve lower limb balance control ability (Ⅰ A) and muscle strength (Ⅱ A) for CAI patients. The efficiency of exercise-based intervention could be further raised (Ⅱ C) with the aid of external equipment, but either the benefits in muscle reaction (Ⅲ C) or proprioception (Ⅱ D) was limited. Six sessions or more of manual therapy could be used to enhance the balance ability of the lower limbs (Ⅱ B), while taping failed to provide improvements in ankle proprioception in short period or immediately (Ⅰ A). Conclusion Unstable plane training-based therapeutic exercise and manual therapy could effectively enhance the neuromuscular control with high-quality evidence supporting, which can be primary interventions for CAI patients. Meanwhile, taping and other external devices could be used as adjunct methods to improve the efficiency of physiotherapy program, while there is currently no evidence to support the application of modality treatment in neuromuscular control of CAI.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the effects of elastic resistance exercise on patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods:Randomized clinical trials about elastic resistance exercise for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease were searched in the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Database and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database from inception to September, 2020. Finally, eleven literatures were included, including 9 in English and 2 in Chinese, with a total of 485 patients. The quality of the articles was evaluated using the Cochrane Library systematic review criteria and Physiotherapy Evidence Database Scale, and the data were analyzed with RevMan 5.2. The system review was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42020208659). Results:There was no significant difference in 6 Minute Walking Distance (6WMD) (MD = 1.19, 95%CI -7.02 to 9.39, P = 0.78), COPD Assessment Test (CAT) (MD = -0.43, 95%CI -2.42 to 1.57, P = 0.68) and the muscle strength (MD = 0.23, 95%CI -1.06 to 1.52, P = 0.73), with no high heterogeneity, between elastic resistance exercise group and the conventional resistance exercise group (such as weight training machine, weight training). There was no significant difference in 6MWD (MD = 18.30, 95%CI -8.92 to 45.52, P = 0.19) and CAT (MD = 0.59, 95%CI -3.78 to 2.60, P = 0.72) between the elastic resistance exercise group and the non-resistance exercise group, however, the heterogeneity between them was high. Conclusion:Elastic resistance exercise may be potentially alternative to conventional resistance training. However, the effects of elastic resistance exercise on exercise endurance, quality of life and lung function are still unclear.

Wulingsan， a classic prescription first recorded in the Treatise on Cold Damage （Shang Han Lun） by ZHANG Zhong-jing for patients with water retention syndrome due to the disturbance of Qi transformation in bladder， has often been modified by ancient and modern doctors for the treatment of renal diseases. It produced satisfactory outcomes without inducing adverse reactions. The databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform， and PubMed were searched for articles concerning the clinical application and pharmacological mechanism of Wulingsan in the treatment of renal diseases published by domestic and foreign scholars in recent years. The summary of the included articles revealed that Wulingsan has been widely employed for the treatment of renal edema， diabetic nephropathy， acute and chronic glomerulonephritis， nephrotic syndrome， renal insufficiency， abnormal urination， etc.， and the resulting outcomes were satisfactory. Wulingsan alone or in combination with western medicine yielded better clinical outcomes than the western medicine alone. In the exploration of its pharmacological mechanism， there existed some individual reports by Korean scholars， while Chinese scholars tended to work as a team. After years of research， each team has found that Wulingsan was superior to Wulingsan decoction in excreting water， which might be related to the absence of massive low-polarity and volatile components in the decoction that were responsible for regulating the expression of aquaporins （AQP） in kidney of saline-loaded rats. Wulingsan regulates the endocrine state of rats with kidney yang deficiency， inhibits the reabsorption of water， increases the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase， and reduces the expression of AQP 1， AQP 2， AQP 3， and AQP 4. Besides， it bi-directionally regulates the human water metabolism， which is achieved via the dual-directional regulation of purinergic P2X3 receptor expression on bladder detrusor. The efficacy of Wulingsan in treating chronic renal failure is attributed to its protection against the damaged renal tissue，structure and fanction. Hence， this paper summarized the research progress of Wulingsan in the treatment of renal diseases in recent years， aiming to provide a reference for the clinical and basic exploration of Wulingsan against renal diseases in the future.

@#Objective To summarize the experience of surgical treatment of asphyxiating thoracic dysplasia (Jeune syndrome). Methods A total of 15 patients with asphyxiating thoracic dysplasia from August 2018 to April 2020 in our hospital were retrospectively included. There were 7 males and 8 females, aged 1-25 (8.87±6.71) years. Special steel bars were used to correct the growth direction of the rib and costal cartilage. Meanwhile, the concave and convex deformities of the chest wall on both sides were corrected to increase the chest volume and correct the thoracic deformity. Results The contour appearance of the chest wall of all patients changed after the operation. The shape was close to normal, and the symptoms of hypoxia were improved. The operation time was 147.73±59.78 min, intraoperative bleeding volume was 105.67±91.90 mL, ICU stay time was 14.20±13.54 d and hospital stay time was 26.00±17.87 d. Eleven patients were directly extubated after the operation, 4 patients underwent tracheotomy and received assisted respiration, and the assisted respiration time was 19, 13, 22 and 12 days, respectively. The postoperative chest circumference was significantly increased, and the blood oxygen saturation was significantly improved. There were 5 patients with cardiac insufficiency, and 3 of them were improved by cardiotonic therapy, 2 of them died of heart failure on the 2nd and 31st day after the operation, respectively. Abdominal distention occurred in 10 patients after operation, and 5 of them were obstinate and eliminated by comprehensive treatment. All patients were followed up. The appearance of thorax was improved obviously and there was no sign of compression in lungs. One 13-year-old patient developed respiratory discomfort 3 months after the operation, and the symptoms were relieved after self-administration of oxygen. A 25-year-old patient developed cardiac insufficiency half a month after the discharge, and the symptoms disappeared after cardiotonic treatment. Four patients took out the steel bars in 13, 13, 15 and 17 months after the operation, respectively. The appearance of thorax remained well after the operation. The imaging examination showed that the position of bone structure was normal, the lung field was clear, and there was no sign of chronic inflammation. Conclusion This technique is a safe and simple operation method. It can not only eliminate the deformity of chest wall, but also increase the volume of chest obviously. However, the long-term effect needs to be further evaluated.

BACKGROUND@#Cervical cancer remains a major public health issue for the Uyghur women and other women living mainly in rural areas of Xinjiang. This study aims to investigate the distribution of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and cervical cancer in rural areas of Xinjiang, China.@*METHODS@#Cervical cancer screening was performed on rural women aged 35 to 64 years from Xinjiang, China in 2017 through gynecological examination, vaginal discharge smear microscopy, cytology, and HPV testing. If necessary, colposcopy and biopsy were performed on women with suspicious or abnormal screening results.@*RESULTS@#Of the 216,754 women screened, 15,518 received HPV testing. The HPV-positive rate was 6.75% (1047/15,518). Compared with the age 35-44 years group, the odds ratios (ORs) of HPV positivity in the age 45-54 years and 55-64 years groups were 1.18 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.02-1.37) and 1.84 (95% CI: 1.53-2.21), respectively. Compared with women with primary or lower education level, the ORs for HPV infection rates of women with high school and college education or above were 1.37 (95% CI: 1.09-1.72) and 1.62 (95% CI: 1.23-2.12), respectively. Uyghur women were less likely to have HPV infection than Han women, with an OR (95% CI) of 0.78 (0.61-0.99). The most prevalent HPV types among Xinjiang women were HPV 16 (24.00%), HPV 33 (12.70%), and HPV 52 (11.80%). The detection rate of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)2+ was 0.14% and the early diagnosis rate of cervical cancer was 85.91%. The detection rates of vaginitis and cervicitis were 19.28% and 21.32%, respectively.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The HPV infection rate in Xinjiang is low, but the detection rate of cervical cancer and precancerous lesions is higher than the national average level. Cervical cancer is a prominent public health problem in Xinjiang, especially in southern Xinjiang.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency is a common clinical injury that seriously affects the function of the knee. Although ACL reconstruction (ACLR) can rebuild the structure of the ACL, it does not restore the normal kinematics and dynamics of the knee. In recent years, motion analysis has been widely applied in sports science and rehabilitation. In clinics, motion analysis is mainly applied to the evaluation of clinical outcomes of the ACLR knee. It is also a scientific objective tool to assess the potential risk factors of secondary injury and early onset of osteoarthritis after ACLR. In-depth understanding of the knee functional kinematics and kinetics after ACLR will significantly improve the efficacy of current ACL deficiency treatment and rehabilitation regime. This paper reviewed studies of the knee joint motion analysis after ACLR in the past decade. The current knowledge of the ACLR knee motion from studies using optical motion capture and biplanar fluoroscopic imaging system based tracking technique was synthesized. Clinical studies have reported that regardless of the type of graft and surgical technique of the ACLR, the postoperative knee still exhibits abnormal kinematics in functional tasks, but the relationship between early-onset OA and the biomechanical changes in the ACLR knee remains unknown. Restoring the rotational stability of the knee is still one of the biggest challenges in clinical ACLR surgery. Future studies should explore the impact of ACLR on the biomechanical mechanisms of the knee joint through an appropriate research design and long-term follow-up, and help clinicians and physiotherapists to develop more effective interventions.

Objective To evaluate the effects of water body environments on the microbial community of Oncomelania hupensis snails in marshlands of the eastern Dongting Lake where natural extinction of O. hupensis snails are found, so as to explore the correlation between the natural extinction of O. hupensis snails and the microbial community in snails. Methods Snails were caged water bodies in the Qianliang Lake marshland (Qianliang Lake regions) where natural extinction of snails was found and in the Junshan Park marshland (Junshan Park regions) in the eastern Dongting Lake for 30 days, and then all snails were collected and identified for survival or death. DNA sequencing of the fungi and bacteria was performed in snails before and after immersion in waters, and the biodiversity and abundance were analyzed. Results The survival rates of O. hupensis snails were 28.0% (70/250) and 64.8% (162/250) in Qianliang Lake regions and Junshan Park regions 30 days after immersion in waters, respectively (χ2 = 81.365, P < 0.01). The number of the fungal community and the biodiversity of the bacterial community were both greater in snails caged in Qianliang Lake regions post-immersion than pre-immersion, and there was a significant difference in the structure of the fungal and bacterial communities. The microbial community with a significant difference included Flavobacteriaceae,which was harmful to O. hupensis snails. Conclusion The water body environment affects the composition of the microbial community in O. hupensis snails in marshlands with natural snail distinction around the eastern Dongting Lake; however, further studies are required to investigate whether the natural distinction of snails is caused by water body environments-induced changes of the microbial spectrum in O. hupensis snails.
