In order to understand the pathogenic factors that initiate the processes of Alzheimer's disease (AD), a method of inference of multiple differential modules (iMDM) to conduct analysis was performed on the gene expression profile of AD. A total of 11,089 genes and 588,391 interactions were gained based on the gene expression profile and protein-protein interaction network. Subsequently, three differential co-expression networks (DCNs) were constructed with the same nodes but different interactions, and eight multiple differential modules (M-DMs) were identified. Furthermore, by performing Module Connectivity Dynamic Score to quantify the change in the connectivity of component modules, two M-DMs were identified: Module 1 (P=0.0419) and 2 (P=0.0419; adjusted, P≤0.05). Finally, hub genes of MDH1, NDUFAB1, NDUFB5, DDX1 and MRPS35 were gained via topological analysis conducted on the 2 M-DMs. In conclusion, the method of iMDM was suitable for conducting analysis on AD. By applying iMDM, 2 M-DMs were successfully identified and the MDH1, NDUFAB1, NDUFB5, DDX1 and MRPS35 genes were predicted to be important during the occurrence and development of AD.
To explore tending to patients with chronic rhinosinusitis using a nanosilver compound. From February 2014 to August 2016, 112 surgical patients with chronic rhinosinusitis were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group. Patients in the observation group were given antibiotics, care to retain hemostasis, and other treatment after surgery. Patients in the observation group were administered treatment with bonbijing nano antibacterial water spray post-surgery. The progress of both groups recorded. Nanosilver is metallic silver of nanometer size. Nanosilver particles in the spray are approximately 25 nm in diameter, strongly inhibit growth of or kill dozens of pathogenic microorganisms, e.g., Escherichia coli. Postoperative pain in patients in the observation group was less than pain in the control group patients (p < 0.05). Symptom and sign scores in observation group patients were lower than scores in control group patients (p < 0.05). Incidence of adverse reactions and complications was also lower in observation group patients (p<0.05). Use of nanosilver for tending to patients with chronic rhinosinusitis after surgery can significantly improve clinical symptoms and signs, and reduce adverse reactions and complications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
