Artemsia argyi Levl.et Vant is a commonly used Chinese herbal medicine and moxibustion raw material plant,so far has more than two thousand years of medicinal history,as one of the most commonly used Chinese medicinal materials.The incopat patent database was used to search the worldwide patent data of the last 20 years,and a total of 25279 argyi related patents were retrieved.The pattern of argyi patents was analyzed from the perspectives of global application trend,main technical fields,national economy composition,applicant ranking,patent value and other aspects by means of graph combination.The analysis shows that the innovation and development of argyi is in the stage of rapid development;The medical,Chinese patent medicine,cosmetics and physiotherapy of argyi are the hot research and development of current technology;There are a large number of patents related to argyi in the world,but they are mainly distributed in China and South Korea.Among them,the number of patents related to argyi in China reaches 20381,far higher than that in other countries,but the number of high-value patents is not very large,and the value and quality of patents are still insufficient compared with other countries.From the perspective of the current development trend of argyi,with the deepening of clinical application recognition and scientific research of argyi,there is a large patent space in the field of argyi.Patent applicants can formulate corresponding patent application strategies according to the global development opportunities,technological development status and existing weaknesses.

Objective:To analyze the effect of systematic exercise with a self-designed foot-ankle exerciser on postoperative ankle function in patients with tibial pilon fracture.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted of the 84 patients with tibial pilon fracture who had been treated by open reduction and internal fixation at Nanhua Hospital Affiliated to Nanhua University from May 2018 to January 2020. According to the difference in rehabilitation, they were divided into a control group ( n=42) which were subjected to staged functional rehabilitation after operation and an observation group ( n=42) which was subjected to systematic exercise with a self-designed foot-ankle exerciser. In the control group there was 26 males and 16 females with an age of (36.6±4.8) years (from 20 to 55 years); in the observational group there were 27 males and 15 females with an age of (36.4±4.5) years (from 21 to 57 years). The 2 groups were compared in terms of postoperative recovery, ankle functional recovery, postoperative quality of life, and rate of complications. Results:The 2 groups were comparable due to the insignificant differences in their preoperative general data ( P>0.05). The time for first ambulation [(3.7±0.3) weeks], time for fracture union [(9.1±0.8) weeks], and time for full-weight bearing [(6.5±0.9) weeks] in the observational group were all significantly shorter than those in the control group [(4.1±0.5) weeks, (10.9±1.2) weeks and (7.2±1.1) weeks] ( P<0.05). The good to excellent rate of ankle functional recovery was 92.9% (39/42) for the observational group, significantly higher than that for the control group (73.8%, 31/42) ( P<0.05). The scores for postoperative quality of life in the observational group were significantly higher than those in the control group in dimensions of material, psychology, society and body ( P<0.05). The rate of total postoperative complications in the observational group was 2.4% (1/42), significantly lower than that in the control group (10.9%, 8/42) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:For patients with tibial pilon fracture undergoing the same surgical procedures, systematic exercise with our self-designed foot-ankle exerciser can promote functional recovery of the ankle joint, improve postoperative quality of life, and reduce incidence of postoperative complications.

This study was aimed to optimize the extraction process of Aesculi. The extraction process of Aesculi wasoptimized through orthogonal experiment while the transfer rate of escin Ia and escin Ib. And the yield of dry extract. wasadopted as marks. And ratio of solid to liquid, the ethanol concentration, extraction time and extraction temperature werestudies. The results showed that optimized extraction conditions of Aesculi were determined as follows. The ratio of solidto liquid was 1: 10, the ethanol concentration was 70％, extracted for 20 minutes ever stage and the extractiontemperature was 60℃. It was concluded that the extraction process is efficacious for general flavone and icariinextraction. The method is suitable for the standardized production technology of Aesculi.
