[Electroacupuncture improves pulmonary function by reducing inflammatory reaction via inhibiting miR-19b-3p to regulate SOCS3/JAK1/STAT3 signaling pathway in mice with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease].

College of Acupuncture-moxibustion and Tuina, Anhui University of Chinese Medicine, Hefei 230038, China.
Objectives: To explore whether electroacupuncture(EA) can increase the expression of suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)3 by affecting the expression of miR-19b-3p, inhibiting the continuous activation of janus kinase (JAK)1 /signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)3 signaling pathway, and improve pulmonary inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) mice.
Methods: Forty mice were randomly divided into normal, COPD model, COPD+EA, and COPD+miR-19b-3p agomir (agomir)+EA groups. The COPD model was simulated by cigarette smoke exposure for 1 h, twice a day for 3 months.

Background: The correlation between the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and the risk of stroke has become a hot spot within the medical research community. The available evidence from a large sample regarding the correlation between PNI and stroke is inadequate. There is also a need for more research analysis from national surveys.

Article Synopsis
- A comprehensive overview of Cochrane reviews was conducted to assess the effectiveness of various smoking cessation interventions, revealing diverse outcomes across studies.
- The analysis included 71 reviews and 3022 trials, highlighting pharmacotherapy as a more reliable method for promoting long-term abstinence compared to non-pharmacological therapies, which showed considerable variability in effectiveness.
- Overall, the methodological quality of the reviews was good, but further research is needed to better understand and integrate non-pharmacological interventions in smoking cessation efforts.

Department of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College, Nanjing, China.
Background: Despite the positive effect of early post-cardiac surgery exercises, the concern of safety issues is high, indicating the need for standardized and quantitative mobility indicators to enhance early mobilization monitoring in the intensive care unit while ensuring patient safety. This study aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of quantitative phase I exercise versus usual care in patients who have undergone cardiac surgery.
Methods: In this non-randomized, single-blind trial, patients following on-pump cardiac surgery were allocated to either quantitative exercise (intervention group, n=114) or usual care (control group, n=114) based on their willingness.
