Based on the latent structure model and association rule analysis, the regularity of prescription for hyperlipidemia comorbid with hypertension was explored, and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) pattern type was speculated to provide a reference for clinical pattern differentiation and treatment, and guideline establishment. The literature on the treatment of hyperlipidemia comorbid with hypertension by TCM was systematically searched on CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and SinoMed academic platforms. The relevant information was extracted and a database was established using Microsoft Excel 2019.

High-throughput sequencing of Illumina miSeq was conducted to analyze the microbial community structure of activated sludge and suspended carrier biofilm in the aerobic area of five WWTPs. The results showed that the number of microbial species in the suspended carrier biofilm was lower than that of the activated sludge in the same plant, and the species distribution was more uneven.

It was traditionally used to cure epidemic hemorrhagic fever, intestinal typhoid fever, influenza, sepsis and so on. The purpose of this study was to discover relationships between the change of the constituents in different extracts of QBD and the pharmacological effect in a rat model of acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS).

To date, most focus with these bacteria has been on hydrolysis of glucans and xylans, while the biodegradation mechanism for arabinose-based polysaccharides remains unclear. Here, putative α-l-arabinofuranosidases (AbFs) were identified in species by homology to less-thermophilic versions of these enzymes.

However, several earlier studies contradict these relationships. Through our meta-analysis, we aimed to evaluate such a relation between impaired AG, the risk of death and STEMI.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility of repairing the wounds in the distal feet with dorsal metatarsal artery distal perforator pedicle link-pattern flaps.
Methods: Since January of 2004 to April of 2009, 30 patients with distal wounds in the feet underwent surgical wound repair using by dorsal metatarsal arteries distal perforator pedicle link-pattern flaps. Seventeen patients used the 1, 2 dorsal metatarsal artery distal perforator flaps, and 13 had the 3, 4 dorsal metatarsal artery distal perforator flaps, with the flaps measuring 4 cmx4 cm to 8 cmx7cm and the flap pedicle ranged 3-6 cm in length.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility of fibular artery perforator link-pattern flaps at lateral and posterior part of legs.
Methods: From January 2007 to March 2009, 12 cases of with feet and ankle wounds were treat with fibular artery perforator link-pattern flaps at lateral and posterior part of legs. The flap size ranged from 10 cm x 10 cm to 25 cm x 13 cm.

Objective: To report an anatomical basis for the posterior tibial artery intermuscular septum branches island flaps and its clinical value.
Methods: The origin,course, number, caliber and distribution of the posterior tibial artery intermuscular septum branches were studied in 10 adult cadavers(20 legs). 10 cases of homonymy and opposite side ankle and adjacent soft tissue defects with posterior tibial artery intermuscular septum branches island flaps, aged 20-50 years.
Background & Objective: Natural killer (NK) cells are the main effector of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). The activation disorder of NK cells in cancer patients may affect the treatment effect of monoclonal antibody. Reversing the dysfunction of signal transduction of CD16zeta chain in NK cells and combining lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells with rituximab may give rise to synergistic effect.
