Case report: Confusing lung signs - is the source of the disease in the lungs or intestines?

At the time of the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic, blurred lung signs suggested by imaging examination are particularly common. Novel coronavirus infection is mainly caused by respiratory symptoms. In the early stage of imaging examination, multiple small patchy shadows or ground glass shadows and invasive shadows of both lungs are dominant.

A bioinformatics analysis of potential cellular communication networks in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and colorectal adenoma using scRNA-seq and bulk-seq.

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the global most common chronic liver disease. Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), an inflammatory subtype of NAFLD, has been shown to significantly increase the risk of colorectal adenoma (CRA). Therefore, from the perspective of bioinformatics analysis, the potential mechanisms of NASH/NAFLD-CRA can be explored.

L. organic acid extract inhibits persistent methicillin-resistant and .

continues to be one of the most important pathogens capable of causing a wide range of infections in different sites of the body in humans and livestock. With the emergence of methicillin-resistant strains and the introduction of strict laws on antibiotic usage in animals, antibiotic replacement therapy has become increasingly popular. Previous studies have shown that L.

Hypertension as a rare adverse effect caused by infliximab in the treatment of Crohn's disease: a case report.

Background: Infliximab is an effective drug for the treatment of Crohn's disease. As a rare and unique adverse effect of infliximab, hypertension should be paid enough attention in clinical work. At present, there is no relevant case report.

Suppression effect and safety of acupuncture on colonic spasm during colonoscopy: a randomized controlled trial.

Background: Intestinal spasm and peristalsis during colonoscopy are common but undesirable phenomena, which can easily lead to a missed diagnosis of colorectal polyps and other diseases, and antispasmodic drugs can have adverse side effects. Previous studies find that acupuncture can regulate abnormal gastrointestinal motility. But evidence quality is low and limited at present, and high-quality studies are required.

Dissecting the structure-property relationship of ceramic membrane with asymmetric multilayer structures for maximizing permselectivity.

Robust ceramic membranes presented attractive features of easy cleaning and excellent stability compared to polymeric membranes. Nevertheless, their inherent relationships between the membrane microstructures and separation properties are not completely clear. In this work, we established a quantitative structure-property model using α-AlO membrane on account of the theory of filtrated cake to predict the effects of membrane structure-controlled factors (i.

The early predictive effect of low expression of the in colorectal cancer.

Background: The early diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) is very important for the prognosis of patients. It has been suggested that the cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) island of itga4 is highly methylated in colorectal adenoma cell lines AA/C1, Vaco 235 and so on. So the purpose of our study is to explore the diagnostic accuracy and related mechanism of integrin alpha 4 (ITGA4) in early CRC.

Artificial intelligence-assisted detection and classification of colorectal polyps under colonoscopy: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) is used to solve the problem of missed diagnosis of polyps in colonoscopy, which has been proved to improve the detection rate of adenomas. The aim of this review was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of AI-assisted detection and classification of polyps in colonoscopy.

Methods: The literature search was undertaken on 4 electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library).

[Analysis of prescription regularity of traditional Chinese medicine for colorectal cancer based on data mining].

The tumor prescriptions contained in Dictionary of Tumor Formulas, Compendium of Good Tumor Formulas, Chinese Pharmacopoeia, Ministry of Health Drug Standards for Chinese Medicine Formulas and National Compilation of Standards for Proprietary Chinese Medicines were selected and organized to construct a database for tumor prescriptions, and the data mining techniques were applied to investigate the prescription regularity of colorectal cancer prescriptions. The formula data were extracted after screening in strict accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and were then analyzed with Microsoft Excel 2010 for frequency statistics, Apriori block provided by SPSS Clementine 12.0 software for correlation rule analysis, and arules and arulesViz packages in R 4.

Tiaochang Xiaoliu Decoction Granules prevent the recurrence of colorectal adenoma: a study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

Background: With the changes in lifestyle and diet, the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer (CRC) is increasing in China. CRC mainly develops from colorectal adenomas (CRAs). There is a lack of chemopreventative drugs with definite efficacy for CRAs.

[Bayesian network Meta-analysis of Chinese medicine injections in treatment of chronic renal insufficiency].

In this study, Honghua Injection, Danshen Injection, Shenkang Injection, Shuxuetong Injection, Lulutong Injection, Shenxiong Glucose Injection and Chuanxiong Injection were compared for their clinical efficacy on chronic renal insufficiency by using the method of network Meta-analysis, with Western medicine as the common reference. The randomized controlled trial(RCT) of Hong-hua Injection, Danshen Injection, Shenkang Injection, Shuxuetong Injection, Lulutong Injection, Shenxiong Glucose Injection and Chuanxiong Injection for the treatment of chronic renal insufficiency were obtained by computer-based retrieval. The literature quality was evaluated by using the method in Cochrane Reviewer's Handbook 5.

Calcified macroalgae and their bacterial community in relation to larval settlement and metamorphosis of reef-building coral Pocillopora damicornis.

Calcified macroalgae play an important role in the settlement and metamorphosis of invertebrate larvae in coral reef ecosystems. However, little is known about the algal-associated bacterial communities and their effects on larval settlement. In this study, the responses of larvae of the coral Pocillopora damicornis to calcified algae (Porolithon onkodes, Halimeda cylindracea, Halimeda opuntia and Amphiroa fragilissima) were evaluated.

Efficacy and safety of core stability training on gait of children with cerebral palsy: A protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Cerebral palsy (CP) is a common disability in children featured with pathological gait and limb function limitation due to muscle weakness. Improving limb function and quality of life is currently considered to be highlighted. Physiotherapy is a chief component of rehabilitation for children with CP, correcting gait and improve walking capacity through muscle strength training.

Biomimetic dynamic membrane for aquatic dye removal.

This study utilized physical adsorption and filtration of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and laccases to fabricate biomimetic dynamic membrane (BDM) for the advanced treatment of dye wastewater. In BDM, the adsorption, enzymatic degradation and membrane separation demonstrated a synergism effect on pollutant removal. At first, the fabrication methods of BDM were investigated, and the mixed filtration for laccases and CNTs showed a better performance than the stepwise filtration.

A review on agro-industrial waste (AIW) derived adsorbents for water and wastewater treatment.

There is a large amount of studies surrounding the usage of agro-industrial waste (AIW) for the adsorptions of organic pollutants (dyes) and inorganic pollutants (heavy metals) in water/wastewater. This method is normally treated as an alternative approach to the conventional water/wastewater treatment. However, there are some increasing interests for investigators to identify novel adsorption materials for pollutants removal.
