ObjectiveTo compare the protective effects of water extracts from fresh and dried Dendrobium huoshanense on gastric mucosa in chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG）. MethodsMale SD rats （n=72） were randomly divided into 9 groups， with 8 rats in each group， which were normal group， model group， Yangwei Shu （4 g·kg^-1） group， low-， medium-， and high-dose fresh D. huoshanense （3.5， 7， and 14 g·kg^-1） groups， and low-， medium-， and high-dose dried D. huoshanense （0.7， 1.4， 2.8 g·kg^-1） groups. The CAG rat model was successfully established by inducing with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine （MNNG） and other factors for a total of 11 weeks. Then， the rats were intervened with fresh and dried D. huoshanense for 4 weeks. The serum and gastric tissues of the rats were collected. The changes in gastric juice secretion volume and gastric acid pH value in each group were observed. The gastric mucosal injury was observed by naked eyes and hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining. The gastric mucus secretion level was determined by Alcian blue and periodic acid-Schiff staining（AB-PAS） staining. The expression levels of tight junction proteins Occludin and ZO-1 in gastric tissues were determined by immunofluorescence. The expression levels of serum pepsinogen Ⅰ （PG Ⅰ）， pepsinogen Ⅱ （PG Ⅱ）， gastrin 17 （G-17）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The expression levels of aquaporin 1 （AQP1）， aquaporin 3 （AQP3）， and aquaporin 4 （AQP4） in gastric tissues were determined by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group showed an obviously reduced gastric juice secretion volume （P0.05）， significantly increased gastric acid pH value （P0.01）， gastric mucosa with obvious atrophy， and a significantly reduced gastric mucus secretion volume （P0.01）. The expression of Occludin and ZO-1 in the gastric mucosal barrier was significantly decreased （P0.01）. The levels of PG Ⅰ and PG Ⅱ in the serum were obviously decreased （P0.05， P0.01）， and the levels of G-17， IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α were significantly increased （P0.01）. The expression level of AQP1 in the gastric tissue was significantly upregulated （P0.01）， and the expression levels of AQP3 and AQP4 were significantly downregulated （P0.01）. Compared with the model group， each drug administration group could improve the gastric mucosal atrophy of CAG model rats to varying degrees， obviously increase the gastric juice secretion volume of the model rats （P0.05， P0.01）， significantly decrease the gastric acid pH value （P0.01）， obviously increase the gastric mucus secretion volume （P0.05， P0.01）， obviously decrease the expression levels of G-17， IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α （P0.05， P0.01）， obviously increase the expression levels of Occludin， ZO-1， PG Ⅰ， and PG Ⅱ （P0.05， P0.01）， obviously upregulate the expression levels of AQP3 and AQP4 （P0.05， P0.01）， and obviously downregulate the expression level of AQP1 （P0.05， P0.01）. ConclusionThe water extracts of fresh and dried D. huoshanense can exert therapeutic effects on CAG by improving gastric mucosal injury， reducing inflammation， and regulating water metabolism. Moreover， the dried D. huoshanense has a better effect.

OBJECTIVE: To review the clinical applications of functional perforator flaps in restoring human body functions. METHODS: An extensive literature review was conducted on both domestic and international publications to summarize the clinical use of functional perforator flaps for functional restoration. RESULTS: Perforator flaps are among the most commonly used flaps in reconstructive surgery. Beyond providing soft tissue repair, they are increasingly employed to reconstruct diverse bodily functions, leading us to propose the concept of the "functional perforator flap". Although various forms of functional perforator flaps are currently utilized, reports are predominantly scattered case studies, lacking systematic organization. Commonly used functional perforator flaps can be categorized into five types: chimeric perforator flaps, perforator flaps for nerve function restoration, perforator flaps for lymphatic drainage enhancement, flow-through perforator flaps, and perforator flaps for restoring bone and joint motion. These flaps significantly broaden the application scope of perforator flaps, elevating the goal of reconstruction from mere wound repair to achieving repair concurrent with functional reconstruction. CONCLUSION The application of various functional perforator flap designs significantly improves wound reconstruction outcomes and represents an effective approach for managing complex defects. Future developments will undoubtedly see more forms of functional perforator flaps reported to meet increasingly sophisticated reconstructive demands.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) serves as a treasure trove of ancient knowledge, holding a crucial position in the medical field. However, the exploration of TCM's extensive information has been hindered by challenges related to data standardization, completeness, and accuracy, primarily due to the decentralized distribution of TCM resources. To address these issues, we developed a platform for TCM knowledge discovery (TCMKD, https://cbcb.cdutcm.edu.cn/TCMKD/). Seven types of data, including syndromes, formulas, Chinese patent drugs (CPDs), Chinese medicinal materials (CMMs), ingredients, targets, and diseases, were manually proofread and consolidated within TCMKD. To strengthen the integration of TCM with modern medicine, TCMKD employs analytical methods such as TCM data mining, enrichment analysis, and network localization and separation. These tools help elucidate the molecular-level commonalities between TCM and contemporary scientific insights. In addition to its analytical capabilities, a quick question and answer (Q&A) system is also embedded within TCMKD to query the database efficiently, thereby improving the interactivity of the platform. The platform also provides a TCM text annotation tool, offering a simple and efficient method for TCM text mining. Overall, TCMKD not only has the potential to become a pivotal repository for TCM, delving into the pharmacological foundations of TCM treatments, but its flexible embedded tools and algorithms can also be applied to the study of other traditional medical systems, extending beyond just TCM.

Currently, the application rate of virtual reality technology in the fields of medical education and medical treatment is relatively low. In this study, based on the structure of the human stomach, virtual reality technology, sensing technology, big data technology, and cloud computing technology were integrated. A new form of medical education was established to include the online website platform for data storage and analysis and the offline VR glasses for the physical operation. Through the use of 3d Max technology, Unity3D technology, and C# language, we constructed a three-dimensional model of the human stomach to present the stomach in three dimensions. This enables the users to immerse in it to achieve true human-computer interactive learning. This study updates the concept of medical education, effectively improves the quality and efficiency of medical education, and facilitates the development of surgical programs and reduction in the risk of surgery, as well as provides experimental materials for scientific research. In the future, it can be further developed to include the three-dimensional structures of the circulatory system and other major systems in the human body.

Objective:Although Wu Hu Tang has the effect of treating cough variant asthma(CVA),its specific mechanism of action remains unclear.Methods:Predicted targets,autophagy genes,cough variant asthma genes and differentially expressed genes(DEGs)of CVA of Wu Hu Tang were obtained and mined from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systematic Pharmacology Data-base and Analysis Platform(TCMSP),Bioinformatics Analysis Tool for Molecular Mechanism of Traditional Chinese Medicine(BAT-MAN-TCM)and TCM Integrated Pharmacology Research Platform v2.0(TCMIP),PubChem,Chemspider,Swiss Target Prediction,GEO,GeneCards and other databases.The intersection tool of line Venn diagram was used to obtain the key genes.Using Cyto-scape3.8.0 software build active ingredient-key network;Wu Hu Tang intervention CVA autophagy targets with autophagy genes corre-lation analysis;Use the STRING database,Cytohubba plug-in build protein interaction network and core gene screening.GO and KEGG enrichment analysis of key targets were performed using R Biomanager and ClusterProfiler package,and finally molecular dock-ing was performed.Results:A total of 42 active ingredients,536 potential action targets,7 236 autophagy-related genes,1 987 CVA genes and 460 DEGs of Wu Hu Tang Tang were collected and screened.Thirteen key targets were obtained after taking the intersec-tion,and 12 genes were found to be statistically significant by validated used wilcoxon non-parametric test.The results of the enrich-ment analysis showed that these target genes mainly functioned in cellular autophagy through the VEGF signaling pathway,and some amino acid metabolic pathways.Conclusion:Wu Hu Tang is capable of multi-component,multi-level and multi-target involvement in autophagy-related processes to achieve intervention in CVA,which promotes the development of the idea of combining Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of CVA and provides a new idea for the development of new clinical drugs.

Objective Recent studies have indicated potential anti-inflammatory effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists(GLP-1RAs)on asthma,which is often comorbid with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and obesity.Therefore,we conducted a meta-analysis to assess the association between the administration of glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1)receptor-based agonists and the incidence of asthma in patients with T2DM and/or obesity. Methods PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials,and Clinicaltrial.gov were systematically searched from inception to July 2023.Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of GLP-1 receptor-based agonists(GLP-1RA,GLP-1 based dual and triple receptor agonist)with reports of asthma events were included.Outcomes were computed as risk ratios(RR)using a fixed-effects model. Results Overall,39 RCTs with a total of 85,755 participants were included.Compared to non-GLP-1 receptor-based agonist users,a trend of reduced risk of asthma was observed in patients with T2DM or obesity using GLP-1 receptor-based agonist treatments,although the difference was not statistically significant[RR=0.91,95%confidence interval(CI):0.68 to 1.24].Further Subgroup analyses indicated that the use of light-molecular-weight GLP-1RAs might be associated with a reduced the risk of asthma when compared with non-users(RR=0.65,95%CI:0.43 to 0.99,P=0.043).We also performed sensitivity analyses for participant characteristics,study design,drug structure,duration of action,and drug subtypes.However,no significant associations were observed. Conclusion Compared with non-users,a modest reduction in the incidence of asthma was observed in patients with T2DM or obesity using GLP-1 receptor-based agonist treatments.Further investigations are warranted to assess the association between GLP-1 receptor-based agonists and the risk of asthma.

Objective:To analyze the incidence and prognosis of epilepsy in frontotemporal lobe glioma.Methods:The clinical data of 208 patients with frontotemporal lobe gliomas in Sanbo Brain Hospital Capital Medical University from 2019 to 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) classification of tumors of the central nervous system, the incidence of epilepsy, Modified Rankin Scale (MRS) score, and Engel Outcome Scale of patients with different grades of tumors were calculated.Results:Among all the patients with frontotemporal lobe gliomas, there was more males than females, and it was more common in the 40 -59 age group. The incidence of epilepsy associated with WHO grade Ⅰand Ⅱ glioma was 100.0% (33/33) and 60.9% (14/23), respectively, while that of WHO grade Ⅳ glioma was 19.0%(19/100). The average follow-up time was (22 ± 9) months. During the follow-up period, the incidence of WHO grade Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ glioma-related epilepsy decreased significantly. There was no significant difference in the incidence of glioma-related epilepsy between the total and subtotal resection groups ( P>0.05). There was no statistical correlation between the side of tumor occurrence and the occurrence of epilepsy ( P>0.05), also between the gene phenotype and the occurrence of epilepsy ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the Engel Outcome Scale among different grades of gliomas ( P>0.05). The prognosis of patients with Engel Outcome Scale Class 1 was significantly better than that of other grades. Conclusions:The incidence of glioma-related epilepsy is negatively correlated with tumor grade. Age and sex are risk factors for glioma-related epilepsy. The incidence of postoperative epilepsy in patients with low grade glioma is significantly lower than that in patients with high grade glioma, and the prognosis is better. However, there is no significant difference in the Engel Outcome Scale among different grades of gliomas.

Based on the current laws and regulations framework of China， combined with practical cases， this paper systematically and comprehensively analyzes the supervision attributes， clinical trial supervision model and existing problems of tumor neoantigen vaccine， aiming to provide reference for the construction of the supervision system of clinical trial of tumor neoantigen vaccine in China. The results showed that， at present， the clinical trials of tumor neoantigen vaccine in China adopt a dual-track supervision model： clinical trials initiated by pharmaceutical enterprises and clinical trials initiated by researchers. This supervision model lags behind the development speed of the industry， mainly in the following aspects： challenges brought by dual- track supervision； the clinical trial data initiated by researchers are not effectively connected with new drug research applications； the guiding principles of clinical trial supervision need to be improved. Relevant medical institutions， regulatory authorities and cooperative enterprises can help the development of the regulatory system for clinical trials of tumor neoantigen vaccine in China from the above aspects.
