Methods: Papers on the research of HUA prevention and treatment with medicine-food homology from December 15, 2002 to August 10, 2024 were screened and collected through China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Subsequently, the impact of these medications and their extracts, as well as the active compounds on HUA were assessed. Results: A total of 148 relevant papers were collected, including 43 kinds of Chinese medicines and 61 active compounds, all of which have anti-HUA activity. Among them, 41 kinds of Chinese medicines could inhibit the activity of xanthine oxidase, thus leading to the inhibition of uric acid production; and 22 kinds of Chinese medicines could facilitate uric acid excretion, while 15 kinds of Chinese medicines could reduce the inflammation levels in the body and promoting renal protection. Notably, polyphenols and flavonoids are the key active components for the uric acid-lowering effects. Conclusion This study systematically summarized and analyzed the uric acid-lowering effects and mechanisms of Chinese medicines with medicine-food homology, laying a foundation for their development as HUA agents.

Objective To investigate the effect of dietary glycemic load (GL) on the blood glucose level in women with impaired glucose regulation. Methods A total of 120 women with impaired glucose regulation aged from 40 to 79 were enrolled from Guangzhou community to participate in the epidemiological survey on dia-betes mellitus, and were followed up for 12 months. Continues 24 -hour dietary review of 3 days were completed before and after intervention. The dietary GI, GL and the changes of blood glucose level during the 12-month follow-up were analyzed. Results Ninety-nine subjects completed the 12-month follow-up. According to the GL change percentage (ΔGL), all of the subjects were divided into three groups, including group Ⅰ(ΔGL < -30%)、group Ⅱ(ΔGL -30% ~ -10%) and group Ⅲ (ΔGL≥-10%). The reductions of HbA1c in group Ⅰ and groupⅡ were greater than that in group Ⅲ (P < 0.05). Conclusion To lowering dietary GL at 10% or more should be conductive to reduce HbA1C of women with inpaired glucose regulation.

Objective To explore the efficacy of cold packs combined with ice compress in treatment of pain after erbium fractional photothermal therapy on acne scars. Methods Eighty cases which were confirmed to the criteria were randomized into two groups:treatment group and control group. The treatment group (n=40) treated with cold packs combined with cold icy compress immediately after the surgery for 30~40 mins. The control group (n=40) was given icy compress therapy immediately after the surgery for 30~40 mins. The therapy continued for three days after the surgery on the two groups. The self-feeling symptom and pain relieving time were compared between the two groups. Result The time for pain relief in the wounds and the time for scabbing were both significantly shorter than those in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion The cold packs combined with ice compress therapy can relieve the pains effectively and it can shorten the recovery time after fractional photothermal therapy.

BACKGROUND:Bismth-doped iron nanoparticles modified by hyaluronic acid (HA-BiIOPs) not only act as an effective MRI contrast agent, but also as a radiotherapy sensitizer.OBJECTIVE:To fabricate the HA-BiIOPs and to observe its effect to enhance the radiosensitivity of glioblastoma cells U87MG under X-ray radiation.METHODS:HA-BiIOPs were synthesized using hydrothermal polyol method. (1) Cytotoxicity: A cytotoxicity test was carried out on U87MG cells and rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Cell proliferation rate of two kinds of cells cultured with different concentrations of HA-BiIOPs (0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200, 400 mg/L) at 24 hours after culture were determined by cell counting kit-8 assay. (2) Histological analysis: ICR mice were sacrificed after intravenous injection of HA-BiIOPs, and pathological changes of mouse visceral organs were observed under an optical microscope. (3) Cellular uptake: The HA-BiIOPs after entered into the cytoplasm were observed by Prussian blue staining. (4) Radiosensitization test: U87MG cells at Logarithmic growth stage were cultured in culture medium as control group, subjected to X-ray irradiation (0, 3, 6, 9 Gy) as radiotherapy group, cultured in HA-BiIOPs (0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200 and 400 mg/L) as HA-BiIOPs group or subjected to HA-BiIOPs culture plus X-ray irradiation as combined therapy group. Then, the cell proliferation rate and cloning efficiency were measured at 24 hours after treatment.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The HA-BiIOPs at different concentrations were non-cytotoxic for VSMC and U87MG cells. (2) After intravenous injection of HA-BiIOPs, there was no obvious toxicity to the mouse susceptible organs. (3) After 6 hours of culture, the HA-BiIOPs could be internalized by U87MG cells. (4) The proliferation rate of U87 cells was negatively correlated with the concentration of HA-BiIOPs (0-200 mg/L) and X-ray dose (0-9 Gy). Especialy, the combination of 6 Gy X-ray irradiation with 200 mg/L HA-BiIOPs dramatically decreased the cell viability that was decreased to (41±7)%. In the combined therapy group with 6 Gy X-ray and 100 mg/L HA-BiIOPs, the cells proliferation rate was significantly lower than that in the control and radiotherapy groups (P < 0.05). These results indicate that HA-BiIOPs have a radiosensitizative effect on glioblastoma cells U87MG.

Objective To explore the skill of mien)surgical removal and preservation and functional recovery of facial nerve for large acoustic neuromas.Methods The clinical data of 82 consecutive patients with large acoustic neuromas operated upon through the suboccipital retrosigmoid approach were retrospectively reviewed.The cases with HB grade Ⅲ - Ⅵ of facial nerve were divided randomly into two groups,the one group was given conventional therapy and the other group was given Kabato rehabilitation training.Results In those cases,acoustic neuromas were totally removed in 77 (93.9%),subtotally removed in 5.Facial nerve was kept anatomically intact in 78 cases of the patients (95.1%).Recovery of facial nerve function was faster and more effective in the training group than that in the un-training group.During the follow-up ranging from 6 months to 3 years,among 5 cases of subtotally resection,2 cases relapsed.Three patients in our series complained of chronic headache postoperatively.No patient long time coma or died.Conclusion The goal of large acoustic neuromas treatment should be total removal in one stage and preservation of facial nerve function,as they determine a patient's quality of life.Kabat rehabilitation training is the effective method of functional recovery of facial nerve after operation.
