ObjectiveTo investigate the alleviating effect of calcium cyanamide （CaCN₂） soil fumigation on replanting problems of Rehmannia glutinosa. MethodsNewly soil （NP） was used as the control group， while three treatment groups were established： replanted soil （RP）， newly soil treated with CaCN₂ （120 g·m²， tillage depth 25 cm） （NPCC）， and replanted soil treated with CaCN₂ （RPCC）. R. glutinosa was cultivated in all groups. At harvest， the tuber agronomic traits （number of enlarged roots， maximum root diameter， fresh weight， dry weight） were measured. The content of catalpol and rehmannioside D was quantified by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography （UPLC） to evaluate medicinal quality. Rhizosphere soil available nutrients and enzyme activities were analyzed by assay kits. The community structure and composition of fungi and bacteria in rhizosphere soil were assessed via internal transcribed spacer 2 （ITS2） sequencing and 16S rDNA sequencing， respectively. ResultsCompared with NP， the RP group showed obviously reduced in tuber agronomic traits and quality indicators （P0.05）. However， the RPCC group showed significant improvement in agronomic traits and a notable increase in rehmannioside D content compared to RP （P0.05）. The contents of available phosphorus and potassium in RPCC and NP groups were obviously lower than those in RP （P0.05）. The polyphenol oxidase soil （S-PPO） activity in RP was obviously lower than in NP （P0.05）， while sucrose soil （S-SC）， acid phosphatase soil （S-ACP）， and S-PPO activities in RPCC were obviously higher than in RP （P0.05）. Microbial richness and diversity in RP were obviously higher than in NP （P0.05）， whereas no significant differences were observed between the RPCC and NP. The relative abundances of fungal genera Nectria， Myrothecium， Tomentella， and bacterial genus Skermanella were obviousl lower in RPCC and NP than in RP （P0.05）. Correlation analysis that S-ACP activity was positively correlated with the content of rehmannioside D （P0.05）. Fungal genera Engyodontium and Alternaria， and bacterial genera Pir4 lineage， Pirellula， Methyloversatilis， Brevundimonas， Ralstonia， and Acidibacter were obviously positively correlated with tuber dry weight （P0.05）. Conversely， fungal genera Pseudaleuria， Nectria， Haematonectria， Ceratobasidium， and bacterial genera Streptomyces， Skermanella， RB41， Gemmatimonas， and Bacillus were obviously negatively correlated with dry weight （P0.05）. The fungal genus Alternaria and bacterial genera Brevundimonas， Ralstonia， Acidibacter， and Dongia showed positive correlations with medicinal quality of R.glutinosa tuber， while fungal genera Pseudaleuria， Nectria， Stachybotrys， Fusarium， Gibberella， Ceratobasidium， and bacterial genera Sphingomonas， Skermanella， RB41， Gemmatimonas， and Bacillus were obviously negatively correlated （P0.05）. ConclusionCaCN₂ soil fumigation can significantly improve enzyme activities in replanted Rehmannia rhizosphere soil， enhance the utilization of available nutrients， reshape microbial community structure of replanted R.glutinosa at the family and genus level， and notably improve tuber agronomic traits and medicinal quality. This study provides a novel approach to alleviating replanting problems and offers insights for the integrated development of standardized cultivation techniques， including soil disinfection， nutrient-targeted regulation， and microbial inoculant application.

ObjectiveTo explore the correlations between the medicinal parts， habitats， tissue， components， and medicinal properties （natures， tastes， and effects） of 100 aquatic Chinese medicinal plants， thus providing evidence for the relationship between image and analogy and laying a theoretical foundation for the clinical use and development of aquatic Chinese medicinal plant resources. MethodThe Aquatic Plants of China， Flora of China， and related literature were searched， and a total of 100 aquatic Chinese medicinal plants included in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia （2020 edition）， Chinese Materia Medica， National Compilation of Chinese Herbal Medicines， Dictionary of Chinese Materia Medica， and local standards were screened out. The medicine-taxonomic status-life habit associations and nature-component-traditional Chinese medicine classification-pharmacological effect associations were analyzed respectively. ResultThe aquatic Chinese medicinal plants mostly had a cold nature， bitter， pungent， and sweet tastes， and tropism to the liver meridian. The whole plant or aerial part was mainly used for medicinal purposes， and these plants generally had well developed aerenchyma. These plants mainly contained flavonoids， alkaloids， and volatile oils and had the effects of clearing heat， detoxifying， and promoting urination. ConclusionThere are correlations between the medicinal parts， habitats， tissue， components， medicinal properties， and effects of aquatic Chinese medicinal plants， which provide reference for the development and utilization of aquatic Chinese medicinal plant resources.

ObjectiveTo make statistics on the biological characteristics， medicinal parts， chemical components， and other aspects of thorny medicinal plants and systematically analyze the correlations between their natures， tastes， and meridian tropism， so as to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical application and resource development of these plants. MethodThe Chinese Pharmacopoeia （2020 edition） and the processing standards of various provinces and cities and other related documents were reviewed， on the basis of which 46 species of thorny medicinal plants were selected. The natures， tastes， meridian tropism， medicinal parts， chemical components， pharmacological activities， and geographical distribution of these plants were summarized and analyzed in Excel 2013 and SPSS Statistics 26.0. ResultThe 46 species of thorny medicinal plants belonged to 25 families， 1 class， 1 phylum of 1 kingdom. In terms of the location of thorns， the frequency of these medicinal plants followed the trend of leaf thorns>peel thorns>branch thorns>fruit thorns. In terms of the nature， taste， and meridian tropism， the frequency of these plants was in the orders of warm>plain>cold>cool>hot， bitter>sweet>pungent>sour>salty， and liver>lung>spleen=large intestine>heart>kidney， respectively. In terms of the medicinal parts， the frequency followed the trend of roots and rhizomes>fruits>whole plants>flowers>leaves. The thorny medicinal plants were mainly distributed in north and southwest China. The thorny medicinal plants mainly contained flavonoids， alkaloids， and saponins and had the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying， resolving stasis and eliminating carbuncle， moving Qi and relieving pain， and alleviating edema and expelling pus. Moreover， 24 of them had anti-tumor activity. ConclusionMost of the thorny medicinal plants belong to Compositae， Leguminosae， and Rosaceae， have leaf thorns， a warm nature， a bitter taste， tropism to the liver meridian， and roots as the medicinal part. These plants are mainly distributed in north China， with the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying， resolving stasis and eliminating carbuncle. In summary， the thorn location， distribution， and medicinal parts of thorny medicinal plants are correlated with the natures， tastes， and meridian tropism. The findings provide clues for the development and utilization of these plants.

ObjectiveTo reveal the correlation of Rehmannia glutinosa-soil feedback process with the formation of its continuous cropping obstacles through the identification of the root exudates of R. glutinosa and analysis of the specific rhizomicrobes recruited by the root exudate. MethodThe root exudates of R. glutinosa seedlings germinated under sterilized condition and those enriched in the rhizosphere of R. glutinosa cultivated in the field were collected and analyzed using the ultra-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS）. The highly abundant compounds identified in the root exudates were added into blank soil， and the soil microbial community was profiled using Illumina Miseq sequencing. The bacterial and fungal functions were predicted by PICRUSt and FUNGuild， respectively. ResultThe identification results showed that seven phenylethanoid glycosides were found in R. glutinosa root exudates， and acteoside possessed the highest abundance. In the soil enriched with acteoside， the bacterial genera such as Agromyces， Pseudomonas， Lysobacter， Sphingobium， Pseudoxanthomonas and Sphingomonas were enriched. For the fungi， the genera Neocosmospora， Plectosphaerella and Dactylonectria， and the species such as Neocosmospora rubicola， Plectosphaerella cucumerina， Dactylonectria alcacerensis and Fusarium solani showed higher abundance. The functional analysis indicated the above-mentioned bacterial genera may realize rapid proliferation by utilizing， biodegrading and transforming phenylethanoid glycosides， and some potential fungal pathogens were colonized. ConclusionThe R. glutinsoa-soil feedbacks were likely generated by the phenylethanoid glycosides in the root exudates together with the specific rhizomicrobes. The investigations of R. glutinsoa-soil feedbacks under continuous cropping system are critical to the further understanding of the underlying mechanisms related to its continuous cropping obstacles.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics, the outcome of pregnancy and the risk factors of uteroplacental apoplexy complicating severe placental abruption. Methods A retropectively study of the 52 cases of placental abruption who had delivered in our hospital from Jan. 2002 to Dec. 2006 was conducted. These cases were divided into 2 groups: 17 cases of uteroplacental apoplexy complicating placental abruption as observation group, the others with no uteroplacental apoplexy as control group. The risk factors of disease, clinical characteristics and the outcome of pregnancy between the two groups were compared. Results (1)The incidence of placental abruption was 0. 15% (52/35 049) among the total deliveries patients with uteroplacental apoplexy complicating placental abruption took up 0. 05% (17/35 049) of all deliveries and 33% (17/52) of all abruption cases. (2) General information and delivery : There were no significant differences ( P > 0. 05 ) regarding their mean age and BMI in two groups. All women in observation group had C-section delivery, which were 21 in control group. 14 women had vaginal delivery. The incidence of premature labour was 88% ( 15/17 ) in observation group, and 49% (17/35 ) women in control group delivered after 37 weeks. Significant differences were observed regarding delivery methods and gestational weeks(P <0. 01 ). (3)Risk factors: the incidence of preeclampsia, 71% (12/17), and the duration of disease, 6. 4 hours, in observation group were more than those in control group, 20% (7/35) and 4. 2 hours( P < 0.01 ). There were no significant differences between two groups in premature rupture, polyhydroamnions ( P > 0. 05 ). (4) Clinical characteristics in two groups : bloody amniotic fluid, fetal distress, hematometra and postpartum hemorrhage occurred in 82% (14/17) vs 26% (9/35), 65%(11/17) vs 29% (10/35), 35% (6/17) vs 6% (2/35), and 59% (10/17) vs 11% (4/35), with a significant difference (P <0. 01), but no statistical difference existed between indices such as abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding and abdominal tension ( P > 0. 05 ). (5) Placenta sites and abruption areas: placenta sites were distributed from anterior or posterior of uterine body 5/17 vs 24/35 , the fundus or cornu of uterus 12/17 vs 11/35 ( P < 0. 01 ). All cases in observation group presented abruption areas> 1/3, and 9 cases ≥2/3, 27 cases abruption areas < 1/3 and 8 cases abruption areas 1/3 -2/3 in control group (P<0.01). (6) Other complications and outcome: Hemorrhagic shock 3 vs 0, DIC 3 vs 0, hysterectomy 1 vs 0, intrauterine fetal death 3 vs 2, neonatal asphyxia 8 vs 5 and neonatal death 1 vs 0. There were significant differences ( P < 0. 01 ) between the two groups. Conclusions Preeclampsia, long duration of disease and fundal or cornual placenta a risk factors for uteroplacental apoplexy complicating placental abruption, which may lead to a poor maternal-fetal prognosis.
