Gastric ulcer (GU) is a common digestive system disease, and the main clinical manifestations are nausea and epigastric pain. In recent years, due to increased life pressure, unhealthy eating habits and environment, the incidence of gastric ulcer has increased year by year. Because the disease has a long treatment cycle and is prone to relapse, if it cannot be controlled in time, it can cause the disease to prolong, affect the daily life and health of the patient, and even cause complications such as upper gastrointestinal bleeding, ulcer perforation, and pyloric obstruction. Helicobacter pylori infection is one of the main causes of GU. Clinically, the curative effect of western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine cannot reach the ideal level, so in recent years, the combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine has been highly praised. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Chinese medicine combined with omeprazole for GU. ⋯ The efficacy and safety of Chinese medicine combined with omeprazole for the treatment of GU will be evaluated, and the conclusion will be published to provide medical evidence for a better clinical decision of patients with GU.

According to the World Health Organization, the global incidence of infertility is about 15%, and more than 50% of infertility cases are caused by male infertility. Asthenozoospermia is caused by male fertility decline and male infertility. Due to work pressure, environmental pollution, sexual diseases, and other factors, the number of patients with asthenozoospermia has increased in recent years. It has been confirmed that acupuncture has a certain effect on patients with asthenozoospermia. Acupuncture and moxibustion can be an adjuvant treatment plan for the treatment of asthenozoospermia in addition to drug treatment. ⋯ INPLASY 202140032.

Hypertension can lead to different degrees complications of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular, and increase the risk of sudden death. Acupuncture has become a complementary alternative therapy for hypertension because of its antihypertensive and nontoxic side effects. However, there is still lack of evidence-based medicine evidence for an effective acupuncture antihypertensive prescription. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a special acupuncture prescription on hypertension with hyperactivity of liver yang. ⋯ The results of this study will provide favorable evidence for the efficacy and safety of acupuncture in reducing blood pressure, and explore the positive reaction acupoints which related to hypertension.

The immune checkpoint programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) plays a critical role in immune regulation. Recent studies have demonstrated functional PD-1 expression in peripheral sensory neurons, which contributes to neuronal excitability, pain, and opioid analgesia. However, the relationship between the expression of soluble programmed cell death-1(sPD-1) and cancer pain is controversial. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between sPD-1 expression level and cancer pain through meta-analysis. ⋯ DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/WDPUY.

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in the human digestive system, which seriously affects people's quality of life. As an effective treatment for GC, traditional Chinese medicine can effectively alleviate patients' clinical symptoms, improve the quality of life, and delay the life cycle. A large number of clinical studies have shown that Banxia Xiexin Decoction has shown a good effect in the treatment of GC. It has achieved good curative effect whether it is used alone or combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, which may play a more significant role in the treatment of GC. However, there is still no evidence of evidence-based medicine. Therefore, this study aims to systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of Banxia Xiexin Decoction as a complementary treatment for GC. ⋯ INPLASY202140060.
