A systematic review of the effect and mechanism of Daoyin therapy on improving mild cognitive impairment in older adults.

Background: Age-related cognitive decline is a pervasive problem in the aging population. Daoyin therapy is a mind-body movement characteristic of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Increasing evidence has reported its usefulness in improving cognitive function among different populations.

Effects of Aerobic Exercise on Executive and Memory Functions in Patients With Alzheimer's Disease: A Systematic Review.

Background: Alzheimer's disease threatens the health of older adults, particularly by disrupting executive and memory functions, and many studies have shown that aerobic exercise prevents and improves the symptoms associated with the disease.

Objective: The objective was to systematically review the effects of aerobic exercise on executive and memory functions in patients with Alzheimer's disease and to determine the effect factors and mechanisms of the design of aerobic exercise intervention programs.

Method: Relevant literature was searched in three databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and EBSCO) from January 1, 2014 to March 1, 2023, using a subject-word search method.

Physical activity interventions for cardiopulmonary fitness in obese children and adolescents: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: This study [PROSPERO CRD42023416272] systematically analysed the effects of a physical activity intervention on cardiorespiratory fitness in obese children and adolescents and elucidated the factors that influenced those effects.

Methods: A systematic review of the literature on physical activity interventions for improving cardiopulmonary fitness in obese children and adolescents from January 1, 2011, to March 1, 2023, was conducted. The search was performed on the Web of Science and PubMed databases, and the selected literature was first screened and then assessed for quality.

The impact of exercise on mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a global surge in mental health challenges. This study (PROSPERO CRD42023443860) aimed to investigate the impact of exercise on individuals' mental health through systematic evaluation and meta-analysis to develop a scientific exercise program.

Methods: We systematically searched the literature up to August 2023 using PubMed, Web of Science, and SCOPUS.

Sports and Social Interaction: Sports Experiences and Attitudes of the Urban Running Community.

Social change and development influence the motivational factors of people's sports participation, exposing the need for socialization and interaction. The purpose of this study is to investigate the interaction pattern of the urban running community and the behavior pattern of runners with the help of social interaction theory, and to explore the inner connection between their community movement and social interaction. Ten senior members of marathon urban running societies were selected to conduct two rounds of in-depth interviews which were analyzed using qualitative thematic analysis to understand the sports participation experiences and social interactions of running society members.

Impact of Physical Activity on COVID-19.

Introduction: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is seriously endangering human health worldwide. This study finds effective intervention modalities of physical activity on COVID-19 through a narrative review.

Methods: In this study, 41 papers were selected for a narrative literature review after a comprehensive database search from 20 December 2019, to 30 August 2022.

A rare cause of persistent leukocytosis with massive splenomegaly: Myeloid neoplasm with BCR-PDGFRA rearrangement-Case report and literature review.

Rationale: Persistent leukocytosis with megalosplenia is a common manifestation among patients with myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN), especially for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. Here, we report a rare case of myeloid neoplasm with BCR-PDGFRA rearrangement characterized by obvious elevation of leukocyte count and megalosplenia.

Patient Concerns: A 32-year-old man presented with persistent leukocytosis and megalosplenia.

The transformation of isolated gastric myeloid sarcoma into acute myeloid leukemia presenting with a complex karyotype and TLS-ERG gene fusion: A case report.

Rationale: Isolated myeloid sarcoma (MS) is characterized by the rapid proliferation of myeloblasts of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), without any blood or bone marrow involvement. This disease can manifest with extramedullary organ involvement, such as the skin, lymph nodes, bone, brain, breast cervix, and visceral organs, while the occurrence of myeloid sarcomas in the stomach is rare. Isolated MS has been associated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), but the rapid progression of MS to acute myeloid leukemia with a complex karyotype and TLS-ERG fusion gene is even rarer.

Management of chronic myeloid leukemia presenting with isolated thrombocytosis and complex Philadelphia chromosome: A case report.

Rationale: Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) with thrombocytosis and complex chromosomal translocation is extremely rare in clinical setting. Here, we reported the clinical and pathological characteristics of CML patients, which were characterized by thrombocytosis and complex Philadelphia chromosome translocation. Moreover, we also introduced our therapeutic schedule for this patient as well as review relative literature.

CD40L inhibits cell growth of THP-1 cells by suppressing the PI3K/Akt pathway.

Introduction: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the hematological malignant tumor with high mortality, is still difficult to treat. CD40L is a type II transmembrane protein, which has been reported to have the potential to inhibit growth of some cancer cells.

Materials And Methods: In order to determine the role of CD40L on AML-M5 cell line THP-1, we overexpressed CD40L in the cells using a lentiviral vector system (pHBLV-CMVIE-Zs Green-T2A-puro vector); overexpression was confirmed by the detection of green fluorescent protein and CD40L protein expression.

Effect of Yang-Style Tai Chi on Gait Parameters and Musculoskeletal Flexibility in Healthy Chinese Older Women.

The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of Yang-style Tai chi (TC) on gait parameters and musculoskeletal flexibility in healthy Chinese female adults. Sixty-six female adults aged >65 years were randomly assigned to either an experimental group (67.9 ± 3.

Effect of Taichi Softball on Function-Related Outcomes in Older Adults: A Randomized Control Trial.

The purpose of this present study was to examine the effect of Taichi softball (TCSB) on physical function in Chinese older adults. Eighty Chinese older adults were randomly assigned into either an experimental group experiencing four 90-minute TCSB sessions weekly for seven consecutive weeks or a control group. At baseline and 7 weeks later, all participants were asked to perform physical functional tests for both lower and upper limbs.

[Expression and Significance of Pim-3 Gene in Acute Myeloid Leukemia].

Objective: To investigate the role of Pim-3 abnomal expression in development of acute myeloid leukemia.

Methods: Semi-quantitative RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of Pim-3 in bone marrow of 47 newly diagnosed and untreated patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and 18 patients with AML after treatment with chemotherapy. At the same time, the bone marrow of 10 cases of non-hematologic malignancies was used as normal control.
