Kawasaki Disease Presenting with Fever and Jaundice: Case Report.

Kawasaki disease (KD), which is also known as cutaneous mucosal lymph node syndrome, is an acute, self-limiting, necrotizing vasculitis with unclear cause that primarily affects small- and medium-sized blood vessels and most commonly affects children aged 6 months to 5 years. Currently, diagnosis is based primarily on typical clinical symptoms. Approximately 15%-20% of patients are highly suspected of having KD; however, they do not match the diagnostic criteria for typical KD, which is referred to as incomplete Kawasaki disease (IKD), and this has become a major challenge in the diagnosis and treatment of KD.

Ultrafiltration for patients with acute decompensated heart failure: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Ultrafiltration plays an indispensable role in relieving congestion and fluid retention in patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) in recent years. So far, there is no consistent agreement about whether early ultrafiltration (UF) is a first-line treatment for patients with ADHF. We, therefore, conducted a meta-analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of UF.

[Multi-center randomized double-blind controlled study on children's anorexia (spleen-stomach disharmony) treated with Child Compound Endothelium Corneum].

Child Compound Endothelium Corneum(CCEC)has the effects in invigorating the spleen and appetizing the appetite, and dissolving the accumulation of food. The recent studies have proved that it could improve gastrointestinal motility, restore physiological gastrointestinal peristalsis, increase gastrointestinal digestive motility, and enhance appetite. This trial aimed to evaluate its clinical efficacy and safety in the treatment of children's anorexia(spleen-stomach disharmony).

[Identification of Chinese medicine sea snake based on cytochrome B (Cytb)].

The identification of species primordium has been one of the hot issues in the identification of traditional Chinese medicine. Sea snake is one of the most valuable Chinese medicinal materials in China. In order to understand the origin and varieties of sea snake in the market, we studied the molecular identification of 46 sea snakes by cytochrome B(Cytb).

Development of a versatile and conventional technique for gene disruption in filamentous fungi based on CRISPR-Cas9 technology.

Filamentous fungi represent an invaluable source of pharmaceutically active compounds. The development of versatile methods to genetically manipulate filamentous fungi is of great value for improving the low yields of bioactive metabolites and expanding chemical diversity. The CRISPR-Cas9-based system has become a common platform for genome editing in a variety of organisms.

Groundwater remediation engineering sparging using acetylene--study on the flow distribution of air.

Air sparging (AS) is an emerging method to remove VOCs from saturated soils and groundwater. Air sparging performance highly depends on the air distribution resulting in the aquifer. In order to study gas flow characterization, a two-dimensional experimental chamber was designed and installed.
