Convergent Patterns of Karyotype Evolution Underlying Karyotype Uniformity in Conifers.

Karyotype diversity plays an important role in speciation and diversification. However, gymnosperms, particularly conifers, exhibit remarkable karyotype uniformity. To explore the evolutionary processes shaping karyotypes in gymnosperms, the karyotype evolutionary history is reconstructed through comparative genomic analyses.

[Chest computed tomography manifestations in neonates with chronic granulomatous disease].

Objectives: To study chest computed tomography (CT) manifestations in neonates with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) to provide clues for early diagnosis of this disease.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data and chest CT scan results of neonates diagnosed with CGD from January 2015 to December 2022 at Anhui Provincial Children's Hospital.

Results: Nine neonates with CGD were included, with eight presenting respiratory symptoms as the initial sign.

Triterpenoid Compounds from : A Review of Their Phytochemistry, Quality Control, Pharmacology, and Structure-Activity Relationship.

(Batalin) Iljinskaja () is a single species of in Juglandaceae. It is a unique rare medicinal plant resource in China that is mainly distributed in the south of China. The leaves of , as a new food ingredient, are processed into tea products in daily life.

Effect of concurrent training on physical performance and quality of life in children with malignancy: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the intervention effect of concurrent training on children with malignant tumors to provide evidence for prescribing exercise for children with malignant tumors.

Methods: Twelve databases were searched from inception to October 15, 2022. Two researchers independently screened the literature, evaluated the quality, extracted the data, and performed the meta-analysis using R.

Surgical Management of Peripheral Vein Thrombophlebitis in the Upper Extremity.

Purpose: Peripheral vein thrombophlebitis has a reported overall incidence ranging from 20% to 80%. Thrombophlebitis can progress despite antibiotic therapy to become a challenging clinical problem requiring surgical intervention. There is currently no consensus on its optimal management.

Comparative efficacy of exercise modalities for cardiopulmonary function in hemodialysis patients: A systematic review and network meta-analysis.

Background: To provide reliable evidence to exercise rehabilitation therapists and clinicians, we compared and analyzed the effects of different exercise modalities on cardiopulmonary function in hemodialysis patients using Bayesian network meta-analysis.

Methods: PubMed, OVID, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, Scopus, CINAHL, SPORT Discus, SinoMed, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP were searched from inception to July 20, 2022. We included randomized controlled trials comparing 12 exercise modalities to improve cardiorespiratory fitness in hemodialysis patients.

[Clinical characteristics and genetic analysis of a neonate with Smith-Magenis syndrome].

Objective: To explore the clinical features and genetic etiology for a neonate with Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS).

Methods: Copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) was applied to the neonate and his parents, and the genotype-phenotype correlation was analyzed.

Results: On the second day after birth, the neonate had presented with pathological jaundice and immunodeficiency.

[Protective effect of total triterpenoids from Chaenomeles speciosa against Helicobacter pylori-induced gastritis in mice].

This study investigated the protective effect of total triterpenoids from Chaenomeles speciosa against Helicobacter pylori(Hp)-induced gastritis in mice and explored its possible mechanism. The chronic atrophic gastritis(CAG) model mice were randomly divided into four groups of model, total triterpenoids from C. speciosa(50 and 100 mg·kg~(-1)) and triple therapy, with C57 BL/6 J mice without Hp infection taken as the normal group.

Peripheral Vein Thrombophlebitis in the Upper Extremity: A Systematic Review of a Frequent and Important Problem.

Background: The acceptable incidence of thrombophlebitis following intravenous cannulation is 5%, as recommended by the Intravenous Nurses Society guidelines, but publications have reported startling figures of 20% to 80%. Given the frequency of intravenous lines, this presents a potential clinical problem. We aimed to determine the predisposing patient, catheter, and health care-related factors of peripheral vein thrombophlebitis in the upper extremity.

Prevalence of Celiac Disease Autoimmunity Among Adolescents and Young Adults in China.

Background & Aims: In China, epidemiologic information on celiac disease autoimmunity is scarce and fragmented. We investigated the prevalence of celiac disease autoimmunity in the general Chinese population.

Methods: In a cross-sectional prospective study, 19,778 undiagnosed Chinese adolescents and young adults (age, 16-25 y) were recruited from consecutive new students who underwent routine physical examinations at 2 universities in Jiangxi, China, from September 2010 through October 2013; the students were from 27 geographic regions in China.
