Objective: To explore the effect and mechanism of Tongguan capsule (TGC) on coagulant and fibrinolysis system in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods: Adopting the prospective, randomized controlled method to observe the coagulant-fibrinolysis related indexes, including tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), von Willebrand factor (vWF), antithrombin II (AT-III) and fibrinogen (FIB), in CHD patients after PCI, there were 26 patients in the treated group treated by TGC with Western medicine and 26 in the control group treated by Western medicine alone.
Results: After treatment, all the indexes were improved in both groups (P < 0.05). As comparison between the two groups, AT-III and t-PA were higher in the treated group than those in the control group; PAI-1 levels showed insignificant difference at 1 month after treatment, but at 3 months after treatment, it was significantly lower in the treated group (P < 0.05); vWF showed no significant difference either at 1 or at 3 months after treatment; and FIB was lower in the treated group both at 1 and 3 months after treatment (P < 0.01).
Conclusion: TGC could improve the hypercoagulant status and adjust the balance between coagulant-fibrinolysis system of CHD patients after PCI by increasing AT-III and t-PA levels, and lowering FIB and PAI-1 levels in the body.

Aims: Unresectable cutaneous squamous cell cancer of the head and neck (HNcSCC) poses treatment challenges in elderly and comorbid patients. Radiation therapy (RT) is often employed for locoregional control. This study aimed to determine progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) outcomes achieved with upfront RT in unresectable HNcSCC.

In species with genetic sex determination (GSD), the sex identity of the soma determines germ cell fate. For example, in mice, XY germ cells that enter an ovary differentiate as oogonia, whereas XX germ cells that enter a testis initiate differentiation as spermatogonia. However, numerous species lack a GSD system and instead display temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD).

The widespread application of genome editing to treat and cure disease requires the delivery of genome editors into the nucleus of target cells. Enveloped delivery vehicles (EDVs) are engineered virally derived particles capable of packaging and delivering CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoproteins (RNPs). However, the presence of lentiviral genome encapsulation and replication proteins in EDVs has obscured the underlying delivery mechanism and precluded particle optimization.

Objective: Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. In particular, functional outcomes of SAH caused by large or giant (≥ 10 mm) ruptured intracranial aneurysms are worsened by high procedure-related complication rates. However, studies describing the risk factors for poor functional outcomes specific to ruptured large/giant aneurysms are sparse.

Objective: Endovascular treatment (EVT) is an effective treatment for patients with acute vertebrobasilar artery complex occlusion (VBAO). However, the benefit of bridging thrombolysis prior to EVT remains controversial. The purpose of the present study is to explore the best treatment strategy between bridging treatment (BT) and direct EVT in patients with acute VBAO.
