AI Article Synopsis
- Professor has identified that many clinical symptoms stem from deficiencies and obstructions, which aren't effectively treated with herbal or western medications alone.
- He proposes a "synergistic effect of moxibustion combined with medication," suggesting that using heat-sensitive moxibustion alongside drugs can enhance treatment outcomes.
- This combined approach has shown promising results in tumor rehabilitation, improving patients' quality of life, reducing drug side effects, and potentially extending their lifespan.
Article Abstract
In clinical practice of moxibustion, Professor has found that many symptoms are related to deficiency, cold and dampness accumulation or deficiency, and the obstruction of and blood. The therapeutic effects on these symptoms are not satisfactory with either herbal medication or western drugs. But, the effects can be obviously improved by replenishing with heat-sensitive moxibustion and medication in combination. Hence, he has proposed the academic view, "synergistic effect of moxibustion combined with medication", based on which, the enhanced may accelerate the actions of medication. Guided by this academic view, the tumor rehabilitation is conducted. In clinic, the heat-sensitive moxibustion is combined with immune targeting therapy or chemotherapy, which obviously inhibits tumor, reduces the adverse reactions of drugs, improves the quality of life and extends the life span of tumor patients. It is anticipated to launch a new pattern of moxibustion-medication collaboration to improve the clinical therapeutic effect on tumor through the synergistic effect of the coordination of and medication.

Fulfillment of expectations and patient satisfaction following surgical treatment of complex proximal tibial fractures.
Arch Orthop Trauma Surg
December 2024
Department of Traumatology and Reconstructive Surgery, Berufsgenossenschaftliche Unfallklinik Murnau, Academic Hospital Technische Universität München (TUM), Murnau Am Staffelsee, Germany.
Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate on fulfillment of expectations and patient satisfaction after surgical treatment of complex proximal tibial fractures.
Methods: In this prospective study 114 patients who suffered a complex tibial fracture (AO/OTA-Type B and C) were enrolled. At follow-up, based on the Hospital For Special Surgery-Knee Surgery Expectations Survey (HFSS-KSES), an individualized questionnaire was used to evaluate whether the preoperative formulated expectations had been fulfilled.

Background Virtual reality (VR) is typically used for entertainment or gaming, but many studies have shown that the applications of VR can also extend to medical and clinical education. This is because VR can help health professionals learn complex subjects, improve memory, and increase interest in abstract concepts. In the context of medical education, the immersive nature of a VR setting allows students and clinicians in training to interact with virtual patients and anatomical structures in a three-dimensional environment or from a clinician's point of view.

Rationale: Working memory impairment is a prominent feature of schizophrenia which predicts clinical and functional outcomes. Preclinical data suggest histamine-3 receptor (H3R) expression in cortical pyramidal neurons may have a role in working memory, and post-mortem data has found disruptions of H3R expression in schizophrenia.
Objectives: We examined the role of H3R in vivo to elucidate its role on working memory impairment in schizophrenia.

Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) is a growth factor and pluripotent cytokine that promotes angiogenesis in cancer cells, transitioning to an angiogenic phenotype. The binding of VEGF-A protein to VEGF receptors (VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-2) initiates a cascade of events that stimulates angiogenesis by facilitating the migration and enhancing the permeability of endothelial cells. The proximal promoter of the VEGF gene encompasses a 36-base pair region (from -85 to -50) that can form a stable G-quadruplex (G4) structure in specific conditions.
