Sinisan is a classical prescription developed and applied by ancient medical experts and it is first recorded in the Treatise on Cold Damage written by ZHANG Zhongjing in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Later physicians have modified this prescription based on this original one. The bibliometrics methods were used to analyze the key information and research trend of Sinisan. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria， 69 pieces of effective data were extracted， involving 67 ancient traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） books. The results showed that the name， composition， and decocting methods of Sinisan in later generations were inherited from the original record in the Treatise on Cold Damage. The original plants of medicinal materials used in Sinisan are basically clear. We recommend Bupleuri Radix as the dried root of Bupleurem scorzonerifolium， Paeoniae Radix Alba as the dried root of Paeonia lactiflora， Aurantii Fructus as the dried fruit of Citrus aurantium， Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma as the dry root and rhizome of Glycyrrhiza uralensis. Raw materials of Bupleuri Radix and Paeoniae Radix Alba， Aurantii Fructus stir-fried with bran， and stir-fried Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma should be used for preparation of Sinisan. According to measurement system in the Han Dynasty， a bag of Sinisan is composed of 1.25 g Bupleuri Radix， 1.25 g Paeoniae Radix Alba， 1.25 g Aurantii Fructus， and 1.25 g Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma. The materials should be grounded into coarse powder and taken with a proper amount of rice soup， 3 times a day. Sinisan has the effects of regulating qi movement and harmonizing the liver and spleen. It can be used for treating reversal cold in limbs and cold damage. In modern clinical practice， Sinisan can be used to treat chronic gastritis， irritable bowel syndrome， and dyspepsia. The above research results provide scientific reference for the future research and development of Sinisan.

Approach-avoidance conflict(AAC)refers to the internal conflict that individuals experi-ence when faced with conflicting approach or avoidance thoughts.It reveals some characteristics of mental disorders,such as anxiety,depression,and addiction represented by excessive tendencies of approach or avoidance.The function of the cortico-limbic-striatal system influences behavioral choices at the neural level during the onset of AAC,and the development of related behavioral paradigms that can better represent AAC behaviors is critical to evaluating the efficacy of drugs and guiding the development of new drugs.This paper summarizes the neural mechanisms,behavioral paradigms,and applications in behavioral pharmacology related to AAC behaviors from the perspective of psychopharmacology with a view to providing new perspectives and methods for the diagnosis and treatment of related neuro-psychiatric disorders.

Objective:To compare the detection method of hepatitis E virus (HEV) in simulated water samples, and to provide a reference for the detection of HEV in water.Methods:HEV fecal suspension was added to tap water or distilled water simulated water samples, and pretreatment was carried out by electropositive filter-organic eluent elution method (Method 1) to compare the extraction effect of the three nucleic acid extraction kits, A, B, and C. The simulated water samples were pre-treated by Method 1, 2 (electropositive filter-direct lysis method), 3 (tangential-flow ultrafiltration membrane-organic eluent elution method), and 4 (tangential-flow ultrafiltration membrane-direct lysis method) for pretreatment, A kit for nucleic acid extraction, Real time RT-PCR method for detection and comparison of the recovery rate; comparison of the recovery rate of different concentrations of HEV in simulated water samples; comparing the inhibitory effects of inhibitors in tap water samples on real time RT-PCR; and detection of HEV in different batches of tap water specimens.Results:Kit A nucleic acid extraction was better; the recoveries of method 1, 2, 3 and 4 were 7.31%, 39.88%, 6.85% and 64.88%, respectively, which showed a statistically significant difference in the recoveries ( F=114.069, P<0.001). The recoveries of method 4 with the addition of high, medium and low concentrations of HEV were 65.26%, 42.76% and 32.79%, respectively. The inhibition of all four pre-treatment method was less than 75%, which meets the requirements of ISO (15216-2∶2019). Twenty tap water specimens were tested for HEV and the result were negative. Conclusions:This study showed that the two membranes better recovered in combination with direct lysis, respectively; Methods 4 had a higher recovery in the detection of HEV in small volumes of distilled or tap water, but it was limited by the volume of water samples, turbidity, and so on. Suitable method can be selected for different water quality and laboratory conditions.

Objective:To optimize and compare method for hepatitis E virus (HEV) nucleic acid detection from pig liver, and provide technical references for HEV detection in animal viscera specimens.Methods:Three methods (PBS homogenization treatment, proteinase K treatment, chloroform extraction method) were used to pretreat and extract viral nucleic acid form pig liver, which was artificially contaminated with HEV fecal suspensions, and HEV RT-qPCR was used to compare the HEV recovery rate and inhibition rate. The optimized HEV method was applied to commercially available pig liver specimens, and HEV genotyping was performed on positive specimens.Results:The HEV recovery rate of PBS homogenization treatment, proteinase K treatment and chloroform extraction method was 9.88%, 0.19% and 17.28%, respectively. The recovery rate of proteinase K treatment was less than 1%, and it was discarded; t-test was performed to compare recovery rates of the other two methods, which showed statistically significant differences ( t=26.801, P<0.001), the chloroform extraction method had a higher recovery rate. The inhibition rates of the three methods were all less than 75%, within the range of the ISO/TS 15216-2∶2019 standard. Among 192 commercially available pig liver specimens, 17 specimens were detected positive for HEV RNA, with a nucleic acid positive rate of 8.85%; five specimens were successfully genotyped for HEV, all of which were genotype 4. Conclusions:The virus recovery effect was good when chloroform extraction method was used for pig liver pretreatment; moreover, this method could detect HEV RNA from commercially available pig livers, which indicate that it can be used for virus detection in food.

Objective To explore the impact of bisphenol A(BPA)exposure on liver lipid metabolism in C57BL/6J mice and uncover the mechanisms at work.Methods Male C57BL/6J mice,aged eight weeks,were stratified into six cohorts:a control group on a standard diet(ND),a group on a standard diet with low-dose BPA(BPA-50 ND),a group on a standard diet with high-dose BPA(BPA-500 ND),a control groupon a high-fat diet(HFD),a group on a high-fat diet with low-dose BPA(BPA-50 HFD),and a group on a high-fat diet with high-dose BPA(BPA-500 HFD).Dosages for the low-and high-dose BPA groups were 50 and 500 μg/(kg·d),respectively,administered via gavage over a duration of 12 weeks.Hepatic tissue underwent histological examination through he-matoxylin and eosin(HE)staining.Furthermore,the expression levels of miR-122-5p and miR-143-3p in hepatic tissue,in addition to interleukin(IL)-6 and IL-10 in peripheral serum,were quantitatively measured employing quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),respectively.Results Histopathological analysis via HE staining indicated intact hepatic lobule archi-tecture in the ND group,whereas other groups displayed variable degrees of lipid droplet accumulation and damage to hepatic lobules.Notably,supplementation with BPA,particularly in conjunction with a high-fat diet,led to a progressive increase in IL-6 levels and a decrease in IL-10 levels in peripheral blood.In the context of a standard diet,an augmentation in BPA concentration corresponded with a decline in the expression of miR-122-5p and miR-143-3p.Conversely,within the high-fat diet cohort,enhanced BPA concentrations were associated with increased expressions of these microRNAs.Pearson correlation analysis disclosed a significant positive correlation between the expression of miR-122-5p and miR-143-3p and the level of IL-10 in the standard diet group(P＜0.01).In the high fat diet group,the expression level of miR-122-5p was positively correlated with the concentration of IL-6(P＜0.05),and the expression level of miR-143-3p was negatively correlated with the concentration of IL-10(P＜0.05).Conclusion BPA can induce the occurrence and progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)by regulating the expression of miR-122-5p and miR-143-3p and regulating the levels of inflammatory factors IL-6 and IL-10.

Objective To analyze the ability of micro-implant nails placed in different locations in the posterior re-gion to improve the hard and soft tissues of the labiodental region in patients with gummy smiles to provide a reference for clinicians.Methods This study was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee,and informed consent was ob-tained from the patients.Thirty young female patients with anterior tooth protrusions and gummy smiles were included in the retrospective study;18 patients had micro-implant nails implanted between the premolars(group A),and 12 pa-tients had implant nails placed between the roots of the premolar and the molar and an intraoperatively placed rocking-chair archwire(group B).The preoperative and postoperative distances from the incisal end of the upper mesial incisors to the lower point of the upper lip(U1-Stms),the vertical distance from the incisal end of the upper mesial incisors to the palatal plane(U1-PP),the vertical distance from the point of the alveolar ridge to the palatal plane(Spr-PP),the dis-tance from the incisal end of the upper mesial incisors to the point of the alveolar margin(U1-Spr),and the vertical dis-tance from the point of the proximal middle buccal cusp of the maxillary first molar to the palatal plane of the maxillary first molar(U6-PP)were measured in the cephalometric lateral radiographs of the two groups;additionally,the amount of hard and soft tissues of the upper anterior region exposedduring smiling and the maximum amount of gingiva exposed during smiling were assessed from the smile photograph.Results After correction,the lip-dentition relationship im-proved significantly in both groups,with an average reduction of 2.6 mm in U1-Stms,2.4 mm in U1-PP,1.4 mm in Spr-PP,and 0.9 mm in U1-Spr in Group A.In group B,the U1-Stms was reduced by an average of 2.3 mm,the U1-PPs by an average of 1.6 mm,the Spr-PPs by 1.4 mm,and the U1-Spr by 0.2 mm.The difference between pre-and postoperative U6-PP in both groups was not significant(P＞0.05).Group A had greater ?U1-PP and ?U1-Spr changes than group B(P＜0.05).There was no difference between the two groups in terms of ?U1-Stms or ?Spr-PP(P＞0.05).The amount of soft and hard tissue exposed and maximum amount of gingiva exposed in the upper anterior region of the smile were reduced in 30 patients postoperatively,with group A having anaverage reduction of 70.19%of the preoperative amount of soft and hard tissue exposed in the upper anterior region and an average reduction of 24.12%of the preoperative max-imum amount of gingiva exposed,and group B having an average reduction of 76.12%of the preoperative amount of hard and soft tissue exposed in the upper anterior region and an average reduction of 31.88%of the preoperative maxi-mum gingiva exposed after the operation.The difference in the ratio between the two groups was not statistically sig-nificant(P＞0.05).Conclusion For patients with proptosis and gummy smiles,placing micro-implant nails between the roots of maxillary premolars can effectively lead to retraction and intrusion of anterior teeth to improve the lip-denti-tion relationship and improve gummy smile,and placing micro-implant nails between the roots of the maxillary second premolar and the first molar together with the use of rocking chair arches can also achieve a good therapeutic effect.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of disc repositioning surgery combined with orthodontic treatment in patients with temporomandibular disorder and facial asymmetry.Methods One patient who underwent disc repositioning surgery combined with orthodontic treatment for temporomandibular joint disorder and facial asymme-try was reported.Preoperatively,the patient had a skewed shape of the opening,mild pressure pain in the right preauric-ular region with left mandibular deviation,and a mismatch between the width of the upper and lower dental arches.In the arthrosurgery department,bilateral temporomandibular disc replacement and anchorage were performed through a transauricular incision,and an auxiliary splint was worn to stabilize the jaw position for 6 months.In the orthopedic de-partment,maxillary skeletal expansion was used in combination with the multiloop edgewise archwire technique to re-construct the occlusion after 16 months of orthodontic treatment.Results The deviation was corrected by wearing an occlusal splint for six months after joint repositioning and anchoring;moreover,the pain symptoms disappeared,and the cone beam CT examination showed that the bilateral temporomandibular joint space was uniformly enlarged,the lower alveolar ridge midline deviated to the right,the posterior regions of the teeth were bilaterally inverted,and the anterior region and the posterior region of the left side were open.The orthodontic treatment matched the width of the upper and lower dental arches and established the cuspal molar neutrality relationship and the normal overjet coverage of the ante-rior teeth;additionally,the mandibular position was not obviously skewed.A review of the results of the related litera-ture shows that abnormal occlusal relationships,such as mismatched arch width and skewed occlusal plane,can cause adaptive mandibular deviation,which can lead to the occurrence of TMD.Temporomandibular joint disc anchorage with splint treatment can effectively improve maxillofacial deformity in young TMD patients.After the establishment of a sta-ble,physiologically functional disc-condylar relationship,orthodontic treatment is required to remove the interfering fac-tors to rebuild the occlusion,and long-term postoperative review and follow-up are needed.Conclusion In patients with TMD and mandibular accommodative deviation due to occlusal anomalies,establishing a normal disc-condylar rela-tionship and eliminating occlusal interference through disc repositioning surgery combined with orthodontic treatment can effectively improve facial shape and establish a stable jaw position.

AIM:To observe the effect of Pingwei capsule on the precancerous lesions of gastric cancer(PLGC)cell model induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG),and to preliminarily explore its mecha-nism.METHODS:Blank serum and Pingwei capsule-containing serum were prepared for later use.A PLGC cell model was established by MNNG-induced human gastric mucosal epithelial cell line GES-1.To evaluate the model,cell morpho-logical changes were observed under inverted microscope,and the expression of proliferating cell-related antigen Ki67 was detected by immunofluorescence staining.CCK-8 assay was used to screen the optimal intervention concentration and time of serum containing drugs.Reactive oxygen species(ROS)content in cells was detected using a fluorescent probe DCFH-DA.Malondialdehyde(MDA)content was detected by ELISA,and the activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and gluta-thione peroxidase(GSH-Px)was detected using biochemical reagents.A novel fluorescent probe JC-10 was used to detect mitochondrial membrane potential.The mRNA expression levels of Ki67 and melanoma differentiation-associated gene-7(MDA-7)were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.The protein expression levels of Ki67,interleukin-6(IL-6)and MDA-7 were detected by Western blot.RESULTS:Compared with normal group,the ROS and MDA levels in model group and blank serum group were significantly increased(P<0.01),while the activity of SOD and GSH-Px was significantly decreased(P<0.01).The mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly decreased(P<0.01).The protein expression levels of Ki67 and IL-6 were significantly increased(P<0.01),while the protein expression level of MDA-7 was significantly decreased(P<0.01).There were no significant differences of the above indicators between model group and blank serum group(P>0.05).Compared with blank serum group,the Pingwei capsule-containing serum group showed significantly decreased ROS and MDA levels(P<0.01),significantly increased activity of SOD and GSH-Px(P<0.05),significantly increased mitochondrial membrane potential(P<0.01),significantly decreased protein expres-sion levels of Ki67 and IL-6(P<0.01),and significantly increased protein and mRNA expression levels of MDA-7(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Pingwei capsule can significantly alleviate MNNG-induced oxidative damage and inflammatory response,and regulate the expression of oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes,thereby playing a role in prevention and treatment of PLGC.

Macrophages have strong plasticity and heterogeneity,and can undergo functional transformation in response to different signal stimuli,such as classical activation of M1 type(M1 type polarization)and selective activation of M2 type(M2 type polarization).The pathways of macrophage M1/M2 polarization are quite extensive,involving nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)/mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)signaling pathway,interleukin-4(IL-4)/signal transduction and activator of transcription 6(STAT6)signaling pathway,Notch signaling pathway,Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway,etc.At the same time,M1/M2 polarization of macrophages is also regulated by exosomes,metabolites,non-coding RNA,electrical stimulation,probiotics,etc.,and its imbalance is closely related to the occurrence and development of different types of liver disease.In this paper,the mechanism of its polarization was reviewed,and it was found that M1 polarization of macrophages played a promoting role in the process of liver tissue injury,inflammation and fibrosis,while M2 polarization of macrophages played the opposite role.Among them,hepatocellular carcinoma,as the advanced stage of chronic liver disease,was characterized by increased M2 polarization and impaired M1 polarization of macrophages.Therefore,this paper pays attention to the role of M1/M2 polarization of macrophages in different types of liver diseases,in order to better establish the targeted therapy of macrophage subsets.
