With a particular focus on coronary heart disease (CAD), a structured retrieval of databases was conducted to search the types of exercise involved, including aerobic interval training (AIT), aerobic continuous training (ACT), high-intensity interval training (HIIT), moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT), excessive exercise and athletic exercise. The main medical assessments include anaerobic threshold (AT), peak oxygen uptake (peak VO2) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Besides, we also reviewed exercise and its impact on cardiovascular risk factors, such as obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemic and anxiety. Exercise is effective in preventing CVD. However, excessive exercise can do harm to the cardiovascular system or even lead to sudden death, but such risks can be effectively prevented by adhering to regular exercise. Besides, medium-to-vigorous intensity training is more effective in protecting against CVD and improving cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF).","PeriodicalId":432989,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Modern Medicine and Global Health","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127133216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Currently, the commonly used treatment methods include traditional Chinese and western medicine treatment, surgical treatment, and so on, these treatments need long-term adherence, while the effect varies from person to person. Also, these traditional treatments had a low cure rate and easy recurrence. The relationship between the balance of the intestinal flora and rheumatoid disease has increasingly come to the notice of researchers in recent years. According to studies, the disruption of gut flora can influence the prevalence and progression of AIRD via multiple pathways. Various experiments have shown that the regulation of bacterial balance can alleviate the symptoms of AIRD. In this study, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were taken as examples to explore the current application of regulating intestinal flora balance through diet, probiotics, and fecal bacteria transplantation in the treatment of rheumatic and immune diseases. At the same time, there are also deficiencies and Obstacles in the application that exist in this therapy.

Traditional therapies have bad effects on slowing down the spread of this kind of cancer, so it is essential and urgent to look for a newly developed treatment for TNBC. Defective autophagy is implicated in tumorigenesis, both as a tumor inhibitor preventing the accumulation of damaged proteins and organelles and as a cell survival mechanism that can promote the growth of established tumors. Although autophagy is carried out by the synergistic action of more than 30 proteins, only a few of them are enzymes with clear drug-targeting potential. In addition, according to past studies, the absence of ULK1 alone is sufficient to eliminate autophagy in many cell types, highlighting its particularly important role. Based on a review of the previous work, this paper focuses on ULK1-controlled autophagy as a potential method of slowing down the spread of TNBC cells or even curing cancer and describes some molecules targeting ULK1.","PeriodicalId":432989,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Modern Medicine and Global Health","volume":"171 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122980003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Damage of body tissues, malfunctions of organs, and abnormal growth of organs are common symptoms of an autoimmune disease. Although the exact reason causing autoimmune diseases is yet unknown, recent studies suggest that correlations exist between the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases and epigenetic modifications of DNA. Epigenetic modifications, including methylation of both DNA and histones, have been identified as frequently occurring in individuals with autoimmune diseases. These modifications are thought to be environment-related, which therefore can alter DNA transcription without changing the original DNA sequence. In this review, two systematic (Rheumatoid arthritis and Sjögren syndrome), and two organ-based (Type one diabetes and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis) autoimmune diseases will be discussed. Their association with epigenetic modifications are analysed by twin studies. Several differentially methylated genes and the following signalling pathways that are associated with autoimmune diseases are identified, which may be a potential target for medical treatment.","PeriodicalId":432989,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Modern Medicine and Global Health","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131238724","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, the clinical application and safety of PROTACs in trials were explored by collecting relevant data of clinical trials and analyzing the available results. Some PROTACs have already showed beneficial effects for patients with a favorable safety profile in clinical trials. However, there are still many difficulties with PROTAC technology that need to be solved in the future such as low membrane permeability and the lag in the development of E3 ligands.

This study examines the maternal mortality rate and potential risk factors, including Age and Race Group distribution, healthcare insurance coverage, education attainment, state household income, state birth rate, and abortion rate. Methods: Data were collected and integrated from various sources, including CDC, National Vital Statistics, World population review, Guttmacher institute, and United States Government Census, into datasets that covered different aspects of socioeconomic and demographic development in a state-level statistics. Linear Regression and Geographically Weighted Regression models were used to find correlations between maternal mortality rates and selected socioeconomic factors. Results: The disparity between race and age groups remains as black women over 40 are much riskier of dying from maternal childbirth. The statistical model result indicates that birth rate and female household income contribution are positively correlated with maternal mortality rate, while educational attainment is negatively correlated. Geographical Weighted Regression showed the spatial patterns that the correlations are more credible in eastern states than in western states. Conclusions: Tracking socioeconomic factors that showed either a positive or negative correlation with maternal mortality is the key to reducing maternal mortality. Also, our model result was more credible among eastern states residents, while further models and analysis could be conducted with the residents of the western states to help them interpret and apply the result.","PeriodicalId":432989,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Modern Medicine and Global Health","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117039922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
