Meige’s syndrome (also translated as “Meige’s syndrome”) is also known as idiopathic blepharospasm-oromandibular dystonia syndrome. It is a rare type of segmental dystonia, belonging to a form of adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, characterized by blepharospasm, difficulty in opening the eyes, with or without involuntary movements of the mouth and mandible. This syndrome manifests as … Read more
In a previous article, we discussed the prediction of CpG islands. Once a CpG island is identified, it is necessary to detect the methylation status of the corresponding region. There are various methods to detect methylation status, but the currently recognized gold standard is the bisulfite sequencing PCR (BSP). BSP Principle Genomic DNA is treated … Read more
Source: GF Securities With the development of intelligent connected vehicles, the number of onboard sensors is increasing, and the improving performance leads to a higher demand for computing power in onboard computing platforms. Compared to lower-level autonomous driving, advanced autonomous driving systems significantly increase the amount of data obtained from sensors, and the effective operation … Read more

Dystonia is a movement disorder characterized by involuntary, sustained, or repetitive muscle contractions that cause twisting or abnormal postures of body parts. These conditions are marked by co-contraction of agonist and antagonist muscles, and overflow phenomena, typically categorized into focal, segmental, multifocal, generalized, and hemidystonia. Sensory tricks (sensory trick / geste antagoniste) refer to voluntary … Read more
Image Source | Internet 『Meige Syndrome (MS)』 is a focal/segmental cranial dystonia that involves eyelid spasms and/or involuntary contractions of the submandibular muscles, leading to segmental dystonia. As the disease progresses, it gradually affects the entire facial and even neck muscles. Currently, MS is classified into 4 types based on the affected areas of dystonia: … Read more
Bletilla striata polysaccharide (BSP) is a polysaccharide extracted from the medicinal material Bletilla striata, composed of mannose and glucose (2.4:1) linked by β-glycosidic bonds. It exhibits biological activities such as anti-inflammation, antioxidant, and anti-fibrosis [1], and is non-toxic, biodegradable, and highly compatible, making it widely used in drug formulation [2-6]. Additionally, literature reports that BSP … Read more
Extraction, Purification, and Gastroprotective Activity of Glucomannan from Bletilla Striata Presenter: First Year Graduate Student Di Zhenning This study extracted and purified a water-soluble polysaccharide (BSP) from the pseudobulb of Bletilla striata and analyzed its preliminary structure and gastroprotective activity. The results showed that BSP is a glucomannan with a molar ratio of 7.45:2.55 (Man:Glc) … Read more
