This study was aimed to observe influence of disease/syndrome on the toxicity and effect of aconite roots, in order to reveal relationship among disease/syndrome, toxicity and effect. The mice model of cold syn-drome was establish by wind-cold stimulation. The pain model was established by intraperitioneal injection of glacial acetic acid. Then, LD50 and ED50 of analgesic effect were compared, as well as the therapeutic index (TI) of crude aconite roots. The rat model of cold syndrome was also established by wind-cold stimulation. And the rheumatoid arthritis (RA) model was established by intracutaneous injection of CII and CFA. TD50 of cardiac toxic-ity and arthroncus degree of prepared aconite roots were compared among the normal rats, RA rats, RA with wind-cold stimulation rats according to the recording of lead II ECG. The results showed that after wind-cold stimulation, mice and rats appeared with symptoms which were similar to Chinese medicine cold syndrome. Com-pared with normal mice, LD50 and TI increased, but ED50 decreased in the group of wind-cold stimulation after using powders of crude aconite roots. Compared with normal rats, TD50 of cardiac toxicity and arthroncus degree in-creased in groups of RA and RA with wind-cold stimulation after using prepared aconite roots. It was concluded that in the case of disease/syndrome state, the toxicity of aconite roots decreased, but its effect increased. It sug-gested that there is a significant correlation among disease/syndrome, toxicity and effect.

Objective:To explore the accuracy and clinical application value of a Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning framework (MARL framework) in three-dimensional ultrasound to automatically locate the coronal plane of the uterus.Methods:A total of 144 female patients who underwent routine gynecological examinations in Luohu People′s Hospital during May 2020 were selected as the experimental subjects. The three-dimensional volume data of the uterus of all the experimental subjects were collected by using the Resona-8 high-end color Doppler ultrasound system. A sonographer with more than 5 years of clinical experience manually locate the coronal plane of the uterus in all collected data, and at the same time automatically locate the coronal plane of the uterus MARL framework. The coronal plane images of the uterus obtained by the two methods were saved, and the operation time of the two methods was recorded. The coronal plane uterine images obtained by the two methods were mixed together, and the images were scored 0-1 by two senior ultrasound experts in a double-blind manner. The average score greater than or equal to 0.6 points was considered qualified.Results:①In 144 volunteers, among the coronal planes of the uterus located by the two methods, 131 were qualified by the manual method, and 137 were qualified by the automatic method.There was no statistical difference between the manual and automatic coronal plane images of the uterus (χ 2=1.934, P=0.164) by the chi-square test. ②Using interquartile range analysis, the median and interquartile range of the image score of the automatic group was 0.80(0.75, 0.90), while the median and interquartile range of the image score of the manual group was 0.80(0.75, 0.90). The Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to analyze the quality of the coronal plane images obtained by manual and automatic methods, and the difference was not statistically significant ( Z=1.241, P=0.215). ③The paired t test was used to compare the time required to locate the coronal surface of the uterus, by manual method (63.65±10.182)s, by automatic method (3.25±0.294)s, the difference between the two methods was statistically significant ( t=19.52, P<0.001). Conclusions:The method based on MARL framework has a high correlation with the manual locating of the coronal plane of uterus in three-dimensional ultrasound, and greatly reduces the operation time. It can be effectively applied in clinical practice and lays a foundation for the automatic diagnosis of uterine related diseases.
