ABSTRACT

In recent years, the field of network pharmacology (NP) has developed rapidly, but the flawed and routine workflow has seriously affected the scientificity and reliability of NP analysis results. For complex diseases caused by environmental and genetic factors, symptomatic treatment or drugs targeting a single pathophysiological process cannot prevent or delay the progression of the disease, so the drug development fails or withdraws from the market. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new ideas for NP analysis that combines multiple pathophysiological processes. The key pathophysiological process is an important and complete set of pathological changes in the process of the occurrence, development, and outcome of the disease, which represents the current comprehensive and profound understanding of the nature of the disease. In order to improve the quality of NP research and promote the healthy development of the NP field, this paper proposes a new idea of NP analysis based on key pathophysiological processes. Based on the long-term clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine and the key pathophysiological process of the disease, the method comprehensively analyzes the pharmacological mechanism and active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine compound from the perspective of key pathophysiological process, which increases the scientifically, reliability, and repeatability of the analysis results. This paper takes Alzheimer's disease (AD) as an example to illustrate the necessity, feasibility, main workflow, advantages, and disadvantages of this method, and it is expected to screen disease-modifying drugs that prevent or reverse the course of the disease and promote the clinical transformation of research results.

ABSTRACT

The pharmacodynamic substance of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is an important basis for its mechanism and quality control, and also a key scientific issue for the inheritance and development of TCM. However, the complex characteristics of multi-component, multi-target and integrity of TCM, as well as the limitations of modern scientific research technical methods, have brought great challenges to the research. The interactions between Chinese medicine and intestinal flora provide us with a new idea. Based on the effective role of TCM and the hypothesis of correlation between intestinal flora and disease, the research on the material basis and mechanism of action of TCM based on intestinal metabolomics mostly explored the relationship between microflora and host phenotype, gradually deepening, and finally focused on the relationship between intestinal strains and molecular levels. This paper summarized the research ideas and key technologies of this model, in order to provide reference for the application of this model.

ABSTRACT

Stable isotope tracer metabolomics tracks and analyzes the whole metabolic process of the body through the tracer atoms, which belongs to the frontier technology in the field of biomedicine. This technology is of great significance and value for explaining the pathogenesis of diseases, finding biomarkers of diseases and drug action targets. Taking the mechanism of glucose catabolism disorder in depression as an example, this paper systematically expounds the stable isotope tracer metabolomics technology and its application. The research idea of stable isotope tracer metabolomics based on unmarked metabolomics was put forward, and the research strategy of biological significance interpretation from four dimensions of metabolite isotope abundance, key metabolic enzymes, metabolic flow direction and metabolite flow was given, which broke through the bottleneck of stable isotope tracer metabolomics research technology based on overall animal experiment, and provided scientific basis for the promotion and application of this technology.

ABSTRACT

The morphologic examination of hematologic diseases, mainly by bone marrow smear and/or blood smear needs to keep pace with the times. Several morphological methods need to be optimized and complemented. The joint examination of bone marrow smear, blood smear, bone marrow biopsy imprint and bone marrow section is a relatively complete integrated mode. Together with the meaningful new morphological test items, the reliable diagnosis of morphology can be significantly improved. At the same time, it is also necessary to expand and deepen the diagnostic thinking, integrate clinical, immunophenotype and genetic thinking, and take diagnostic evidence and rules as the criterion, which was the main theme of modern morphological inspection and diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

The treatment ideas with acupuncture for knee osteoarthritis (KOA) are explored on the base of Dongyuan needling technology. Regarding the rules of acupoint selection, Zusanli (ST 36) is predominant, the back-shu points are used for the disorders related to the invasion of exogenous factors, and the front-mu points are for the cases caused by internal injury. Besides, the xing-spring points and shu-stream points are preferred. In treatment of KOA, besides the local points, the front-mu points, i.e. Zhongwan (CV 12), Tianshu (ST 25) and Guanyuan (CV 4), are selected specially to tonifying the spleen and stomach. The earth points and acupoints on the earth meridians (i.e. Yinlingquan [SP 9], Xuehai [SP 10], Liangqiu [ST 34], Dubi [ST 35], Zusanli [ST 36] and Yanglingquan [GB 34]) are optional to coordinate yin and yang, essence and qi , and regulate the qi movement of spleen and stomach. The shu-stream points of liver, spleen and kidney meridians (Taichong [LR 3], Taibai [SP 3] and Taixi [KI 3]) are chosen to promote meridian circulation and regulate zangfu functions.

ABSTRACT

Se realiza una revisión de estudios de resonancia magnética integral y funcional, así como estudios bioquímicos en pacientes con y sin ideas suicidas. Estos estudios en pacientes con alto riesgo de suicidio presentan una disminución de volúmenes corticales en la corteza prefrontal dorso y ventrolateral. Lo importante de estos estudios es que resultan de la comparación con pacientes deprimidos con bajo riesgo de suicidio. Los estudios de resonancia magnética funcional mostraron una hipofuncionalidad del lóbulo prefrontal en los pacientes depresivos con ideas suicidas severas, que se observa como una disminución del flujo sanguíneo cerebral en las áreas lateral y ventral. Se observa una disminución del metabolismo de serotonina, en clara relación con la severidad de las ideas de muerte, también con un foco en la región lateroventral prefrontal. Dado que las funciones de la corteza prefrontal afirman al individuo en su perspectiva vital, disfunciones como las descritas debilitan la coordinación y organización del apego a la vida, quedando, por el contrario, la posibilidad de la búsqueda de la muerte. Se concluye que los pacientes depresivos con ideas suicidas tienen una alta vulnerabilidad para el intento de suicidio por la afectación de las zonas prefrontales.


A review of functional integral magnetic resonance and biochemical data from patients with and without suicidal ideation is presented. Patients with high suicidal risk show a decrease in cortical volume in ventrolateral and dorsal prefrontal cortex. These studies are compared to those of depressed patients with low suicidal risk. Functional magnetic resonance in depressed patients with severe suicidal ideation show an hypo functional prefrontal lobe, seen as a decrease in blood flow in lateral and ventral areas. There is a decrease in serotonin metabolism, clearly related to the severity of suicidal ideation, also in ventrolateral prefrontal cortex. As prefrontal cortex functions enhance vital perspectives, such dysfunctions weaken coordination and organization of attachment to life, making search for death a possibility. Authors conclude that depressed patients with suicidal ideation have a high vulnerability for suicidal intent due to changes in prefrontal areas.

ABSTRACT

Georges Canguilhem (1904-1995), filósofo francês, possui uma extensa produção intelectual cuja importância percorre diferentes áreas do saber. Apesar da variedade de temas abordados pelo autor, parece prevalecer um discurso quase monotemático ­ quando se trata de seu pensamento no Brasil ­ relativo ao debate em torno de sua tese, O normal e o patológico. Tal fenômeno se relaciona aos processos de recepção e circulação de suas ideias, marcados pelo campo de construção da Saúde Coletiva brasileira. Por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica e entrevistas com intelectuais brasileiros protagonistas deste cenário, procurei investigar e construir uma parte da história de sua recepção e circulação no país a fim de apreender o movimento que alçou o discurso do normal e patológico como protagonista. Em paralelo, a construção desta narrativa permitiu revelar outras leituras, localizadas em campos e grupos externos à saúde. Tendo em vista alguns acontecimentos históricos e sociais particulares, o período privilegiado de análise compreendeu o início dos anos 70 até o final dos anos 90. Com efeito, as leituras de Georges Canguilhem no Brasil, apesar de protagonizadas pelo campo da saúde, não são unívocas e homogêneas e estão para além do normal e do patológico. Sendo assim, apresento cinco facetas que caracterizam este processo e permitem compreender a extensão e peculiaridade de sua circulação em território nacional: a) a História das Ciências na primeira metade da década de 70; b) o campo da Saúde Pública (mais adiante reconfigurada epistemologicamente como Saúde Coletiva) a partir de 1975; c) o campo psi desde o final dos anos 70; d) a história epistemológica apresentada por Roberto Machado no início dos anos 80; e) a leitura contemporânea empreendida entre o final dos anos 90 e o final dos anos 2000.


Georges Canguilhem (1904-1995), a French philosopher, has a vast intellectual production whose relevance goes through different fields of knowledge. Although the variety of subjects addressed by the author, it seems that virtually one topic prevails in his discourse ­ when it concerns his thought in Brazil ­ regarding the discussion about his proposition, The Normal and the Pathological. Such phenomenon is related to the processes of reception and circulation of his ideas, characterized by the setting field of Brazilian Collective Health. By the means of literature review and interviews with the leading Brazilian intellectuals in this set, I pursued investigating and conceiving a part of the history of its reception and circulation in the country in order to comprehend the movement that reached the normal and the pathological statement as a major speech. Simultaneously, this narrative conceiving enabled me to disclose literature from external fields and groups other than health's. Considering some particular historical and social events, the chosen period of analysis covers the early 1970s to late 1990s. In fact, Georges Canguilhem's literature in Brazil, although it is mainly studied in the field of Health, is not univocal and homogenous, it is beyond the normal and the pathological. Thus, I present five aspects that characterizes this process and enables comprehending the scope and the uniqueness of its circulation in Brazil: a) History of Sciences in the first half of 1970s; b) the public health field (that was later epistemologically set up as Collective Health) as from 1975; c) the fields of Psychology, Psychiatry and Psychoanalysis as from the late 1970; d) the epistemological history presented by Roberto Machado in early 1980s; e) the contemporary reading undertaken between the late 1990s and the late 2000s.

ABSTRACT

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurological disease highly related to age, which is the main cause of senile dementia and the most common disease leading to the loss of daily living ability of the elderly. AD brings heavy mental burden and economic pressure to patients, families, and society. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) ascribes AD to category of "dementia", believing that the treatment should start from kidney because kidney deficiency is the root cause. Combined with the physiological and pathological characteristics of liver, this paper proposed that liver-kidney homology was an important idea for the prevention and treatment of AD. The main pathological manifestations of AD were amyloid β-protein (Aβ) deposition and neurofibrillary tangles (NFT), and the pathogenesis was complex. A growing number of studies showed that immune inflammation played an important role in the pathogenesis of AD. The important target of treating AD was the regulation of neuro-immune inflammation through the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB)/NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3 (NLRP3)/Caspase-1/interleukin-1β (IL-1β) signaling pathway. Based on the idea of liver-kidney homology, this paper selected the representative formula Hei Xiaoyaosan to explore its effect on the prevention and treatment of AD and the mechanism from the perspective of regulating NF-κB/NLRP3/Caspase-1/IL-1β signaling pathway and inhibiting neuro-immune inflammation, expecting to further promote the in-depth study on the prevention and treatment of AD, and provide references for the prevention and treatment of AD by TCM.

ABSTRACT

On the basis of the changing tendency in the sense considering tumors as a kind of chronic and systematic disease and the integrating trend of somatic mutation theory with the one of field cancerization, this paper focuses on the limitations of current therapeutic ideas and strategies in head and neck tumors. It also describes the influence of the modern view of oncogenesis for future treatment and the developing drift of therapies in this field. Although most tumors in the head and neck region are solid ones, their tumorogenesis should be considered as the final event of systemic dysfunction under the consideration of holistic view and systems theory. Through reasonable integration of unique advantages derived from various modern therapies at a much higher level of personalized diagnosis and treatment view, patients with head and neck tumors are expected to survive with much better long-term therapeutic effects and much higher quality of life following treatment.

ABSTRACT

Now China vigorously promoted the reform of the disease prevention and control system and the construction of the public health system. In the context of the reform of the disease prevention and control system, grassroots disease prevention and control institutions have been greatly improved in terms of the number and structure of personnel, the configuration of facilities and equipment, the construction of information technology, and the ability of laboratory testing. However, it is still a challenge for grassroots disease prevention and control institutions to achieve long-term development under the supportive development policy of “one type of protection and two types of management”. Paper in Wuhan district of institution of disease prevention and control, for example, by analyzing its current working train of thought, puts forward the basic institution of disease prevention and control should be in the internal management level, social level and system level under the three-dimensional development ideas, fully show the technical characteristics, improve the ability of the business, to provide more diversified public health services to the public, may be able to get long-term, stable and continued development.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN Folie imposée (trastorno de ideas delirantes inducidas) es una entidad poco frecuente en psiquiatría clínica. Este es un reporte de caso de dos hermanas gemelas, que requirieron internación en un servicio de psiquiatría tras la aparición de ideas delirantes de perjuicio y de contenido místico que, tras una intervención adecuada y sepa-ración de la paciente sin antecedentes de cuadros similares, recuperaron su funcionalidad previa. El trastorno de ideas delirantes inducidas tiene diferentes subtipos clínicos que se diferencian en el modo en que inician su efecto en la persona inducida. El tratamiento involucra enfoques farmacológicos y psicoterapéuticos, al igual que una importante psicoeducación sobre el cuadro.


ABSTRACT Folie imposée (induced delusional disorder) is a rare entity in clinical psychiatry. This is a case report of two twin sisters, who required hospitalization in a psychiatry service after the appearance of delusions of prejudice and mystical content that, after an adequate intervention and separation of the patient without a history of similar symptoms, recovered their previous functionality. Induced delusional disorder has different clinical subtypes that differ in how they initiate their effect in the induced person. The treatment involves pharmacological and psychotherapeutic approaches as well as an important psychoeducation on the disease.

ABSTRACT

Resumen El artículo explora el pensamiento médico en torno al impacto de la pandemia de influenza de 1918 en México. Se analizan las ideas científicas sobre la etiología de la gripe, las cuales se reflejaron en el tipo de remedios y recetas médicas que se publicaron en la prensa y en boletines de salud. Para adentrarse en este tema profundizamos en el contexto histórico internacional dominado por la guerra. En México, años de conflictos armados a consecuencia de la Revolución agravaron las condiciones de vida de la población: hambre, tifo, viruela y otros padecimientos infecciosos se presentaron antes y durante el brote de la pandemia. El trabajo se apoya en documentación de archivo, boletines de salud, prensa de la época y bibliografía actualizada.


Abstract This article explores medical thought on the impact of the influenza pandemic of 1918 in Mexico. It analyzes scientific ideas on the etiology of the flu, as reflected in the types of remedies and medical prescriptions published in the press and in health bulletins. It then goes deeper into the topic by examining the international historic context, dominated by the war. In Mexico, years of armed conflict unleashed by the Revolution exacerbated living conditions among the population: starvation, typhus, smallpox and other infectious diseases were present before and during the outbreak of the pandemic. This study is based on archival documentation, health bulletins, press sources from the period, and modern bibliography.
