    【Abstract】 Exercise stress ulcer is a type of stress ulcer induced by exercise,manifesting as an acute gastric mucosal lesion with mucosal erosion, ulceration and bleeding.Clinical investigations have shown that besides acute erosion and ulceration of gastrointestinal mucosa,stress ulcer is usually accompanied by increased gastrointestinal bleeding,leading to poor prognosis in the later stage. Since gastric ulcer was discovered and named, researchers have explored its pathogenesis.Due to the wide range,high frequency and complex pathogenesis of exercise-induced stress ulcer,this paper mainly analyzed and summarized the mechanism of exercise-induced stress ulcer from four aspects as follows.First of all, oxidative stress caused by exercise produce excessive free radicals to damage gastrointestinal mucosal cells and damage mucosal barrier function. Secondly, injury of exercise system will aggravate the inflammatory response of the body.Thirdly, reduced gastrointestinal blood flow during exercise is prone to ischemic injury. Fourth, excessive exercise affects the metabolic energy supply of cells. This article aims to provide more references for the prevention and treatment of exercise-induced gastric ulcer.

    【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the correlation between serum levels of cardiac myosin-binding protein C(cMyBP-C), intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1), and a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 1(ADAMTS-1)and prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI). Methods A total of 142 patients with AMI who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in Huiji District People's Hospital of Zhengzhou from April 2021 to April 2023 were selected as the study objects. According to the Gensini
    scores at admission,the patients were divided into a mild stenosis group(49 cases),a moderate stenosis group(55 cases)and a severe stenosis group(38 cases).Preoperative serum levels of cMyBP-C,ICAM-1 and ADAMTS-1 were compared among the three groups, and serum levels of cMyBP-C, ICAM-1 and ADAMTS-1 in patients with different prognosis (preoperative, 7 d and 14 d after surgery)were compared, and the correlation was analyzed by Pearson. The predictive value was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve, and the risk of poor prognosis was analyzed at different levels of each indicator. Results Preoperative serum levels of cMyBP-C, ICAM-1 and ADAMTS-1 were
    compared among the three groups: severe stenosis group>moderate stenosis group>mild stenosis group(P<0.05);Serum levels of cMyBP-C, ICAM-1 and ADAMTS-1 in patients with poor prognosis were higher than those in patients with good prognosis 7 and 14 days after surgery(P<0.05).The serum levels of cMyBP-C,ICAM-1 and ADAMTS-1 in patients with good prognosis were decreased(P<0.05).The serum levels of cMyBP-C, ICAM-1 and ADAMTS-1 were positively correlated with Gensini scores before operation(P<0.05). The AUC of AMI patients with poor prognosis after PCI was 0.813 at 14 days after surgery.The risk of poor prognosis in patients with high levels of serum cMyBP-C,ICAM-1 and ADAMTS-1 at 14 days after PCI was 4.410, 5.217, 3.638 times as much as that in patients with low levels(P<0.05).Conclusion Serum levels of cMyBP-C, ICAM-1 and ADAMTS-1 are closely related to the outcome of AMI patients after PCI,and targeted interventions can be given according to the changes in the level of each index to improve the prognosis of patients.

    Objective   To investigate the detection of thyroid nodules in helicopter operators and to analyze the potential factors influencing the occurrence of thyroid nodules.Methods   A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records and physical examination reports of helicopter operators admitted to a center from August to December 2023.Statistical analysis was performed on the detection of thyroid nodules and related factors.Results   Among 223 helicopter operators,a total of 55 cases of thyroid nodules were detected,resulting in a detection rate of 24.66%.Bilateral lobes (52.73%) were the dominant site of detected thyroid nodules,followed by the right lobe (25.45%),and left lobe (21.82%).The majority of detected nodules were classified as thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TI-RADS) 2 and 3.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that,with the presence of thyroid nodules as the dependent variable and mean corpuscular hemoglobin(MCH),mean corpuscular volume(MCV),red blood cells(RBC),red blood cell volume distribution width(RDW),and anti-thyroglobulin antibody(TGAb) as covariates,the adjusted odds ratio(OR) for RBC was 0.320 (95% CI:0.115,0.850,P<0.05),showing a significant difference.This suggested that higher levels of RBC were negatively correlated with the risk of developing thyroid nodules.Conclusion   The detection rate of thyroid nodules is relatively high among helicopter operators,with the highest occurrence in bilateral lobes.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that a decrease in RBC levels is associated with the presence of thyroid nodules.This indicates a potential important role of RBC in the pathogenesis of thyroid nodules.Future research can validate this association,explore the role of RBC in the pathogenesis of thyroid nodules,provide more accurate predictive factors and treatment targets,and reduce the risk of related diseases.

    Abstract: Orthopedics and traumatology of traditional Chinese medicine has distinctive characteristics, and the theory of soft tissue and bones is of great significance in guiding clinical practice. The theory of soft tissues and bones is the classic theory of orthopedics and traumatology of traditional Chinese medicine, but the theory of soft tissues and bones is scattered and recorded in various classics. The relationship between soft tissues and bones has not been systematically elaborated, especially the relationship between physiology, pathology and treatment principles are sporadic. According to the comprehensive literature, the relationship between the tendon and bone content in the theory of soft tissues and bones is mainly reflected in the following aspects: physiologically, the tendon and bone complement each other, which is manifested in the combination of the tendon and bone, the tendon and the tendon are soft, the tendon and bone are strong,, and the tendon and bone are mutually used; Pathologically, there are mutual effects, such as muscle relaxation and bone flaccidity, muscle stagnation and bone dislocation, bone dislocation and tendon displacement, bone fracture and tendon separation, etc; In the treatment, the same differentiation and treatment are manifested as: managing soft tissues and setting bones, paying equal attention to soft tissues and bones, balancing soft tissues and bones, adjusting soft tissues and bones, and treating root causes together. The clinical practice of bone injury follows the guiding principle of the theory of soft tissues and bones. Both internal and external treatment need to be combined with disease differentiation and syndrome differentiation, and at the same time, "differentiation of bones and soft tissues".

    Objective To further investigate the effect of whole-lung lavage on disease stability and lung function of pneumoconiosis patients. Methods From the electronic medical record system of Beidaihe Sanatorium of the Ministry of Emergency Management,492 cases of pneumoconiosis patients who had been admitted more than 2 times before 2021 and more than 3 years after whole-lung lavage (WLL) were selected as the study objects.The chest radiography and lung function data of the patients were retrospectively read.The postoperative time of WLL was 3-21 years,which was divided into three periods of <5 years,5-10 years,and >10 years.Results Of 326 cases whose chest radiography quality met the requirement, 260 cases were stable (79.8%) and 66 cases were advanced (20.2%).The stable rate of pneumoconiosis and silicosis was 88.3% and 72.8% respectively, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).The stability of chest radiographs after lung lavage was related to the preoperative stage.The milder the lesion,the higher the stability rate.The proportion of patients with coal workers' pneumoconiosis who did not progress in stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ was 97.6%,85.7%,89.1% and 85.7%,respectively,after<5 years and within 5-10 years of surgery, and the proportion of patients with stage Ⅰ who did not progress was 100% after >10 years of surgery.The proportion of patients with silicosis who did not progress in stageⅠ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ was 88.5%,69.6% and 63.0%,respectively,after<5 years of surgery,the proportion of patients with silicosis who did not progress in stageⅠ and Ⅱ was 84.8% and 62.5% respectively,within 5-10 years after surgery,and the proportion of patients with silicosis who did not progress in stage Ⅰ was 88.8% after >10 years of surgery. The indexes of ventilation function, airway resistance and diffusion function were all stable within 5 years in all stages and all types of pneumoconiosis patients. Ventilation function indexes FVC,FEV1 and MVV remained stable in all stages of coal workers' pneumoconiosis,and decreased in silicosis patients within 5-10 years and >10 years.Airway resistance indexes FEF50%,FEF75%,FEF25%-75% in stageⅠ and Ⅱ of coal workers' pneumoconiosis had no significant decrease for more than 10 years,stage I silicosis had no significant change for 10 years,and stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ patients had a decrease within 5-10 years.The diffusion function of DLCO decreased only in silicosis stageⅠ andⅡ groups over 10 years, and the other changes were not obvious.Conclusion WLL treatment of pneumoconiosis has a certain effect on stabilizing the disease,delaying the development of lesions and protecting lung function.

    【Abstract】 Thyroid ultrasound is preferred to the examination of thyroid nodules due to its non-invasive,economical,and accurate advantages.The key events for detecting thyroid nodules were the evaluation of the nature of the nodules and identification of high-risk malignant nodules.Ultrasound-guided puncture biopsy of thyroid nodules combined with cytological and pathological examination results was currently the preferred method for determining the nature of thyroid nodules,which was an important way to achieve the whole-process management of thyroid nodules.At present,fine needle aspiration has been widely used in the diagnosis of thyroid nodules. Due to the shortcomings of limited sampling material, the diagnostic efficiency was relatively low. Core needle biopsy can obtain more histological information,possessing more advantages than fine needle aspiration that solely relies on cytology diagnosis.It has been proposed as a supplementary or even alternative method for preoperative diagnosis of thyroid nodules. This article summarizes the basic overview,indications,histopathological reporting system,and complications of core needle biopsy in the risk assessment of malignant thyroid nodules through literature review, thus providing references for selecting the optimal puncture methods after thyroid nodule detection.

    【Abstract】  Post-stroke  central  pain  is  a  serious  condition  that  affects  the  quality  of  life. This  review  provided  a comprehensive  analysis  of  the  research  progress  of  brain-computer  interface(BCI)  technology, antibody  therapy, gene therapy  and  optical neuromodulation  in the treatment  of post-stroke  central pain. BCI technology  is  an  emerging non- pharmacological therapeutic approach that offers a hope for pain relief by  connecting brain signal decoding to external devices,thus achieving the possibility of interventions and modulations of pain  signals.Antibody therapy provides a new pathway for pain management by altering pain perception and transmission via selectively modulating neurotransmitters or   neuroreceptors. Genetic   engineering   is   adopted   in   gene   therapy   to   regulate   pain   transmission   pathways   by manipulating the expressions and functions of cellular genes,providing innovative ideas for the treatment of central pain. Optic neuromodulation technology achieves photoactivation and photoinhibition of neurons through the combination of photosensitisers and light sources,which effectively reduces pain perception and transmission.The safety and efficacy of these  non-pharmacological  treatments   in  the  management   of  post-stroke   central  pain  are  gradually  being  verified, providing new therapeutic options.
