Evaluation of Clinical Effect of Acupuncture on Chronic Prostatitis: Meta Analysis.

This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy of acupuncture and moxibustion in CP treatment and assess the quality of clinical literature. Controlled clinical trials (CCT) and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from PubMed, Web of Science, NLM, CNKI, and Wanfang (January 2003 to January 2023) were analyzed. Relevant data were extracted and statistically analyzed using RevMan 5.

Using three-dimensional model-based tumour volume change to predict the symptom improvement in patients with renal cell cancer.

In our recent study, we explored the efficacy of three-dimensional (3D) measurement of tumor volume in predicting the improvement of quality of life (QoL) in patients suffering from renal cell cancer (RCC), who were treated with axitinib and anti-PD-L1 antibodies. This study encompassed 18 RCC patients, including 10 men and 8 women, with an average age of 56.83 ± 9.

Clinical application and accuracy analysis of 3D printing guide plate based on polylactic acid in mandible reconstruction with fibula flap.

Background: Due to the special anatomy morphology and physiological function of the mandible, it has always become a challenge to accurately reconstruct the mandibular defect in maxillofacial surgery. Digital three dimensions (3D) printing surgical guide, as the effective method for individual and accurate surgery, is a hotspot of clinical research at present. In this study, 3D printing PLA surgical guide plate was applied to reconstruct the mandibular defect with fibula flap, its clinical effect and accuracy were evaluated, which aimed to improve the accurate reconstruction of mandibular defects.

An early experience of the robot-assisted laparoscopic nephroureterectomy without re-docking in a single position.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the execution of robot-assisted laparoscopic nephroureterectomy without repositioning the patient.

Methods: The clinical data of 9 patients who underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic nephroureterectomy between May 2017 and November 2018 were analyzed, proceeding in a single position, without repositioning the patient. This involved 5 men and 4 women, with an average age of 61.

Experiences of nurses involved in natural disaster relief: A meta-synthesis of qualitative literature.

Aim: To explore nurses' experiences in natural disaster response.

Background: Nurses are key to disaster response. There is a growing body of qualitative research exploring this emerging nursing issue.

Biological roles of filamin a in prostate cancer cells.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the association of filamin A with the function and morphology of prostate cancer (PCa) cells, and explore the role of filamin A in the development of PCa, in order to analyze its significance in the evolvement of PCa.

Materials And Methods: A stably transfected cell line, in which filamin A expression was suppressed by RNA interference, was first established. Then, the effects of the suppression of filamin A gene expression on the biological characteristics of human PCa LNCaP cells were observed through cell morphology, in vitro cell growth curve, soft agar cloning assay, and scratch test.

Controllable Optical Bistability and Four-Wave Mixing in a Photonic-Molecule Optomechanics.

We theoretically investigate the nonlinear optical phenomena including optical bistability and four-wave mixing (FWM) process in a composite photonic-molecule cavity optomechanical system. The photonic-molecule cavity consisted of two whispering gallery mode (WGM) microcavities, where one WGM cavity is an optomechanical cavity with high-cavity dissipation κ and the other WGM cavity is an auxiliary ordinary optical cavity with high-quality factor (Q). Controlling the parameters of the system, such as the coupling strength J between the two cavities, the decay rate ratio δ of the two cavities, and the pump power P, the optical bistability can be controlled.

Physical mechanism of order between electric and magnetic dipoles in spoof plasmonic structures.

It has been recently shown that a solid-textured metal cylinder can support electric and magnetic dipolar resonances simultaneously [Phys. Rev. X4, 021003 (2014)PRXHAE2160-330810.

Clinical characteristics and electroencephalogram analysis of levetiracetam in the treatment of children with febrile seizure recurrence.

Febrile seizure is the most common neurologic disorder in infants and children. This study aimed to elaborate safe and effective therapy for preventing FS recurrence by levetiracetam (LEV). A prospective study was performed in two groups of children, the no treatment group (n=51, 24.

Experience of treating high risk prostate hyperplasia patients with a HPS120 laser.

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects and safety of 120 watt PVP surgery for the high risk prostate hyperplasia patients.

Methods: 120 watt PVP surgery was performed on 120 cases of high risk prostate hyperplasia patients. The assessment included the operation time, energy consumed, hemoglobin changes, and serum salt concentration, whether to keep urinary catheter, hospitalization time, and complications after the operation.

[The recent clinical efficacy study of photoselective vaporization of prostate (120 W) for treatment of large gland benign prostatic hyperplasia].

Objective: To explore the recent clinical safety and efficacy of photoselective vaporization of prostate (120 W) for the treatment of large gland benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Methods: The clinical data of 112 cases who accepted photoselective vaporization of prostate (120 W) for the treatment of severe benign prostatic hyperplasia (the weight of prostate > 75 g) from July 2010 to January 2012 was statistical analyzed. Relief symptoms and complications were observed around surgery, and the recent clinical efficacy was analyzed.
