OBJECTIVEIn order to provide a scientific fertilizer application for the standardized cultivation, the effects of phosphate (P) fertilizer on the active ingredients and antioxidant activities of Chrysanthemum morifolium were studied.
METHODPot experiment was adopted to study the effects of P supply on the yield and the content of flavonoids, chlorogenic acid, soluble sugar, soluble amino acids and crude protein of C. morifolium flower. And effects of P supply on the hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, superoxide anion radical scavenging activity, and 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl hydrate (DPPH) free radical scavenging activity of flower were researched too.
RESULTThe yield of C. morifolium dry flower increased 129. 94% when P fertilizer was applied. Appropriate application of P fertilizer could also significantly improve the content and accumulation of total flavonoids, chlorogenic acid and soluble sugar in C. morifolium. Thus, the inhibition rates of hydroxyl radical, superoxide anion radical and DPPH free radical of C. morifolium was increased. When the level of P supply exceeded 0.20 g P2O5 per plant, P had also negative influence on the yield and the content of active ingredients and the scavenging activity of hydroxyl radical, superoxide anion radical and DPPH free radical of C. morifolium. Furthermore, there were significant positive correlations between the content of total flavonoids and chlorogenic acid and the inhibition rate of hydroxyl radical, superoxide anion radical and DPPH free radical, respectively.
CONCLUSIONAppropriate application of P fertilizer could be beneficial to the increase the active components and antioxidant activity of C. morifolium. And recommended level of P fertilizer is 0.26-0.28 g x kg(-1).

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is an unexplained clinical syndrome with intracranial hypertension as the main sign, often accompanied by headache, pulsating tinnitus, vision and visual field changes and other clinical manifestations. A large number of studies have shown that cerebral venous sinus stenosis is closely associated with IIH, and more than 90% of IIH patients are accompanied by cerebral venous sinus stenosis. Although the causal relationship between the two is still uncertain, a comprehensive surgical treatment system with venous sinus stenting as the core is gradually formed. This article reviews the stenting treatment of IIH complicated with cerebral venous sinus stenosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of robot-assisted minimally invasive sacroiliac screw fixation combined with LC-II external fixation in the treatment of pelvic fracture.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 28 cases with pelvic fractures treated with robot-assisted minimally invasive sacroiliac screw fixation combined with LC-II external fixation from May 2018 to November 2022. There were 19 males and 9 females, with an average age of 43.4±16.9 years (range, 14-74 years). There was 1 case of B1 type, 1 case of B2 type, 4 cases of B3 type, 10 cases of C1 type, 9 cases of C2 type and 3 cases of C3 type by Tile classification. All the cases were treated with closed reduction, LC-II external fixation for the anterior lesions and robot-assisted minimally invasive sacroiliac screw fixation for the posterior lesions. The operation time, fluoroscopy time and excellent rate of screw placement were recorded. The quality of fracture reduction was evaluated by Matta's criteria, and the clinical effect was evaluated by Majeed score.Results:All the 28 cases successfully underwent the surgery. In 11 cases the fractures were reduced by the pelvic unlocking closed reduction device while in the other 17 cases manual reduction was applied. In this cohort, 43 screws were implanted. All the screw positions reached level I by Gras grading. The average fluoroscopy time was 16.3±5.2 s (range, 9-31 s) per screw. The average operation time was 154.9±54.7 min (range, 55-226 min). According to the Matta's criteria, the reduction was rated as excellent in 19 cases, good in 7 cases, fair in 2 cases, yielding an excellent or good rate of 93% (26/28). No iatrogenic neurovascular injury was found in all the 28 patients. The average follow-up was 18.3±7.3 months (range, 4-31 months). The fractures healed at 3.6±1.1 months (range, 2-6 months) after the surgeries. At the final follow-up, the results of the Majeed scores were rated as excellent in 13 cases, good in 11 cases, fair in 3 cases and poor in 1 case, with an excellent or good rate of 86% (24/28).Conclusion:The technique of robot-assisted minimally invasive sacroiliac screw fixation combined with LC-II external fixation used in the treatment of pelvic fracture showed good clinical results.
