Objective To compare the accuracy of bedside lung ultrasound in emergency(BLUE)and combined cardiac-lung and additional ultrasound(CLAUS)for diagnosing the causes of acute dyspnea.Methods Totally 1 016 patients with acute dyspnea were retrospectively enrolled and divided into cardiogenic pulmonary edema group(n=268),pneumonia group(n=574),pneumothorax group(n=33),pulmonary embolism group(n=67)and CAD(chronic obstructive pulmonary disease/asthma/diaphragmatic dysfunction)group(n=74)according to the causes of acute dyspnea.The findings of CLAUS protocol were compared among groups,and the accuracy of BLUE and CLAUS protocol for diagnosing the causes of acute dyspnea were also compared.Results CLAUS showed that B-B and B-C were the most common modes in cardiogenic pulmonary edema group,while A-B/A-C/B-A/B-B/B-C/C-C modes were common in pneumonia group,and A-A mode was the most common in pneumothorax group,pulmonary embolism group and CAD group.Significant differences of the manifestations of pulmonary ultrasound,pleural feature of anterior chest wall,left/right cardiac insufficiency and abnormal inferior vena cava diameter were found among groups(all P＜0.05).The accuracy of BLUE and CLAUS protocol for diagnosing the causes of acute dyspnea was 86.91%(883/1 016)and 94.49%(960/1 016),respectively,the latter was higher than the former(χ2=34.587,P＜0.05).Conclusion CLAUS protocol could be used to effectively diagnose the causes of acute dyspnea,with higher accuracy than BLUE protocol.
Résumé
Pro-inflammatory cytokines selectively induce specific signals to regulate host responses. Since the immunological imbalance caused by abnormal release of cytokines is involved in the development of many diseases, cytokine-specific detections are of great clinical significance for disease diagnosis and efficacy monitoring. Aptamers are single-stranded nucleic acid sequences which can bind to the target with high selectivity and affinity. It has attracted much attention in the development of novel aptamers-based methods for the detection of specific biomarkers of inflammatory diseases. This paper reviewed recent advances in electrochemical and optical aptasensors for the detection of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, transforming growth factor-β, interferon-γ and interleukin-8. The findings offered valuable insights into the clinical application potential and challenges of nucleic acid aptamers in the detection of key inflammatory cytokines, providing a meaningful reference for the development of aptamer-based cytokines sensitive detection point-of-care testing equipment and novel diagnostic strategies for inflammatory disorders.
Résumé
Non-small cell lung cancer （NSCLC） is a malignant tumor of the respiratory system with a high incidence. The early symptoms are not typical， and most patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage， which seriously threatens the lives and health of people. Surgery， chemotherapy， and targeted therapy are the main means of treatment at present， but the consequent drug resistance and adverse reactions restrict these treatment methods with certain limitations. In recent years， with the development of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in tumor resistance， TCM has attracted extensive attention for its obvious therapeutic effect and fewer adverse reactions. Numerous signaling pathways are involved in the formation and development of NSCLC， where phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway is one of the key regulatory pathways. The PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway affects the proliferation， invasion， and metastasis of NSCLC cells by affecting the cycle， inhibiting the apoptosis， inhibiting the autophagy of tumor cells， and promoting tumor neovascularization. As revealed by the recent literature， Chinese medicine plays an indispensable role in NSCLC cell autophagy， cell cycle， apoptosis， invasion and metastasis， neovascularization， and reversal of drug resistance by regulating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. Although some Chinese medicinal extracts or compounds have made great breakthroughs in some mechanisms of action in the treatment of NSCLC， these studies only remain at the level of in vitro cell experiments and animal studies in vivo. Researchers are faced with the great challenge of "transforming the research results of Chinese medicines into clinical applications". Based on the current research status in China and abroad， this paper reviewed Chinese medicine in the intervention in NSCLC through the regulation of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in recent years， in order to open up new ideas for NSCLC drug therapy research and also provide a useful reference for further mechanism research.
Résumé
Objective:To explore the chain mediating effect of future orientation and academic engagement between perceived teacher support and academic procrastination in high school students.Methods:From December 2021 to February 2022, a survey was conducted on 550 high school students by the perceived teacher support questionnaire, the adolescent future orientation scale, the academic engagement scale, and the general procrastination scale-for student populations (GPS). Data were entered by EpiData 3.1 software, and SPSS 26.0 software was used to process and analyze the data by one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation analysis and Bootstrap method test.Results:The scores of perceived teacher support, future orientation, academic engagement and academic procrastination were (3.77±0.80), (3.22±0.48), (68.11±18.08) and (52.32±11.78) respectively.The results of correlation analysis showed that academic procrastination was negatively correlated with perceived teacher support, future orientation and academic engagement ( r=-0.32, -0.38, -0.49, all P<0.01), while perceived teacher support was positively correlated with future orientation and academic engagement ( r=0.40, 0.43, both P<0.01). Future orientation was positively correlated with academic engagement ( r=0.56, P<0.01). The mediating effect analysis showed that perceived teacher support had a significant direct effect on academic procrastination (effect value: -0.10, 95% CI =-0.19--0.02), accounting for 32.26% of the total effect.The mediating effect between perceived teacher support and academic procrastination was found between future orientation and academic engagement (effect value: -0.05, 95% CI =-0.09- -0.02; effect values: -0.09, 95% CI=-0.15--0.05), accounting for 16.13% and 29.03% of the total effect respectively.Future orientation and academic engagement had a chain mediating effect between perceived teacher support and academic procrastination (effect value: -0.07, 95% CI=-0.10--0.04), accounting for 22.58% of the total effect. Conclusion:Perceived teacher support can influence academic procrastination, not only through the direct path, but also through the indirect path of future orientation and academic engagement, as well as chain mediating path between these two variables.

Objective To observe the therapeutic efficacy of bronchial artery embolization(BAE) and pulmonary artery embolism(PAE) for massive hemoptysis.Methods 48 cases with massive hemoptysis were treated with embolization,of them,43 underwent selective bronchial arteriography and BAE with microballoon of Baiji,three cases underwent selective bronchial arteriography and treated with PAE at the same time,two cases underwent PAE.Results The abnormal features of arteriography were displayed in all hemoptysis stopped after operation 48 h later.Three cases recurred during followed up six months later,but the hemoptysis decreased.Conclusion Pulmonary arteriography and PAE therapy should be preformed when BAE fails for massive hemoptysis.
