OBJECTIVE To explore the functional substance basis of Jinhong Tablet in the treatment of chronic superficial gastri-tis(CSG).METHODS Three different models were constructed to investigate the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects,func-tional material basis of Jinhong Tablet:inflammatory model in human gastric epithelial cells(GES-1)induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS),LPS-induced inflammatory model in mouse gastric organoids,and ethanol-induced oxidative damage model in GES-1 cells.MTS assay was performed to detect cell proliferation activity;qPCR was applied to measure the relative mRNA expression of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6),and interleukin-8(IL-8)in cells and gastric organoids;and the levels of superoxide dismutase(SOD),malondialdehyde(MDA),and reactive oxygen species(ROS)in cells were detected.RESULTS Jinhong Tablet and 10 functional components significantly reduced the relative expression of inflammation-relat-ed genes TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,and IL-8 in LPS-induced GES-1 cells and gastric organoids,suggesting that these 10 components are the functional substance basis for the anti-inflammatory effects of Jin Hong Tablet.Jin Hong Tablet and 11 functional components markedly decreased the levels of MDA and ROS and increased the activity of SOD,indicating that these 11 components were the func-tional substance basis of the antioxidant effects of Jinhong Tablet.CONCLUSION Through in vitro cell and gastric organoid experi-ments,it has been preliminarily determined that allocryptopine,corydaline,dehydrocorydaline,palmatine hydrochloride,chlorogenic acid,costunolide,rutin,quercitrin,dehydrocostus lactone,tetrahydrocoptisine,isochlorogenic acid B,toosendanin,protopine,and quercetin are the functional material basis of Jinhong Tablet in treating CSG,accumulating scientific evidence for the enhancement of the quality standards of Jinhong Tablet.

Craniocervical junction zone malformations often have an insidious onset, a variety of clinical phenotypes, and are often combined with multiple malformations, making their systematic classification and staging more difficult.At present, craniocervical junction area malformations are often classified into congenital and acquired, and can also be classified into skull base malformations, atlantoaxial malformations, and cardinal malformations according to their locations. For patients with obvious occipitocervical or atlantoaxial instability, combined with symptoms of high cervical spinal cord damage, internal fixation and fusion surgery should be performed aggressively to avoid irreversible nerve damage.There is a lack of detailed categorisation and summary of the treatment of diseases associated with craniocervical junction malformations in the literature, and the treatment strategies for some of these malformations are still controversial, with different perceptions and treatment concepts in the national and international literature.

Postsurgical hypoparathyroidism is a common cause of hypoparathyroidism, with a variety of clinical manifestations. It is life-threatening in acute and severe cases, and may lead to poor quality of life in chronic patients. It is imperative to consistently enhance the identification and governance of such circumstance. Focusing on the pathophysiological changes, clinical and biochemical features, acute and chronic treatments of postsurgical hypoparathyroidism, a consensus was developed by domestic experts from surgery, endocrinology and nephrology.

Complex brain diseases seriously endanger human health, and early diagnostic biomarkers and effective treatments are currently lacking. Due to ethical constraints on human research, establishing monkey models is crucial to address these issues. With the rapid development of technology, transgenic monkey models of a range of brain diseases, especially autism spectrum disorder (ASD), have been successfully established. However, to establish practical and effective brain disease models and subsequently apply them to disease mechanism and treatment studies, there is still a lack of a standard tool, i.e., a system for collecting and analyzing the daily behaviors of brain disease model monkeys. Therefore, with the goal of undertaking a comprehensive and quantitative study of behavioral phenotypes, we established a standard daily behavior collection and analysis system, including behavioral data collection protocols and a monkey daily behavior ethogram (MDBE) for rhesus and cynomolgus monkeys, which are the most commonly used non-human primates in model construction. Then, we used ASD as an application example after referring to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-5-TR), which is widely used in clinical disease diagnosis to obtain ASD core clinical symptoms. We then established a sub-ethogram (ASD monkey core behavior ethogram (MCBE-ASD)) specifically for quantitative assessment of the core clinical symptoms of an ASD monkey model based on MDBE. Subsequently, we demonstrated the high reproducibility of the system.

Objective:To provide basis for preventing flight safety accidents caused by hypoxia by exploring the subjective and objective performance of pilots in hypobaric hypoxia environment.Methods:The relevant data of pilots′ high altitude physiological training were retrospectively analyzed and a symptom questionnaire upon the training were summarized. The pilots were divided into excellent group (time of useful consciousness >6 min), good group (3 min ≤time of useful consciousness <6 min) and qualified group (2 min ≤time of useful consciousness <3 min) according to the time of useful consciousness. The hypoxia symptoms and physiological parameters of pilots in each group were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 919 pilots were included, in which 416 were in excellent group, 490 were in good group and 13 were in qualified group. Among the 25 hypoxia symptoms, there were significant differences in the components of numbness and difficulty in calculation among 3 groups ( χ2=6.04, 7.79, P=0.049, 0.020), but there were no significant differences in the components of the other 23 hypoxia symptoms (all P>0.05). The changes of blood oxygen saturation were significant in group main effect, time main effect and their interaction ( F=25.65, 1 039.77, 25.22, all P<0.001). The change of heart rate was statistically significant in the main effect of time ( F=66.41, P<0.001) but in time main effect and their interaction (both P>0.05). There was no significant difference in respiratory rate among group main effect, time main effect and their interaction (all P>0.05). The distribution and variation of blood oxygen saturation were statistically significant differences among the 3 groups in the ranges of 81%-90%, 71%-80% and 65%-70% ( H=125.93, 372.83, 13.10, all P≤0.001) unlike the range of 91%-100% ( H=2.48, P=0.289). Conclusions:The excellent group showed better blood oxygen saturation maintaining and useful consciousness time enduring capabilities, and those imply them in better performance and consciousness that enable the operation in hypoxic environment with more ease.

Objective:To provide scientific basis for pilots′ hypoxia training by comparing and analyzing the effects of hypoxia training under normobaric and hypobaric environments.Methods:Forty-two healthy subjects were selected. The pilot reduced oxygen breathing device and hypobaric chamber were used to simulate 7 500 m hypoxia training, and blood oxygen saturation, heart rate, respiratory rate and hypoxia endurance time were monitored and recorded. The hypoxia symptom questionnaire was filled out by the subjects after 2 training sessions. The hypoxia endurance time and hypoxia tolerance grade of normobaric and hypobaric hypoxia training were analyzed, and the differences of blood oxygen saturation and hypoxia symptoms were compared between 2 hypoxia trainings.Results:Forty-two subjects completed the normobaric and hypobaric hypoxia trainings. The survival curve analysis of hypoxia endurance time showed that the median hypoxia endurance time of normobaric and hypobaric hypoxia training was [3.17(2.70, 3.64)] min and [3.67(3.46, 3.88)] min respectively, with no significant difference ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the grade distribution of hypoxia tolerance between 2 hypoxia trainings ( P>0.05). The blood oxygen saturation curves of 2 hypoxia trainings were basically consistent. There was no significant difference between 2 hypoxia trainings on blood oxygen saturation, heart rate and respiratory rate (all P>0.05). There were significant differences in difficulty in calculation, difficulty in concentration and with palpitation ( χ2=4.81, 3.97, 3.98, P=0.028, 0.046, 0.046). Conclusions:The analysis showed that most physiological responses and subjective symptoms of pilots are quite similar in the normobaric and hypobaric hypoxia training at simulated 7 500 m. Both normobaric and hypobaric exposures show the similar hypoxia training effect.
