Objective To study the effects of soybean isoflavone(SI) on lipid peroxidation and liver ultrastructure in ovariectomized rats. Methods Seventy female Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into 7 groups according to the levels of total cholesterol(TC) in serum: hyper-lipoid group,estrogen group,low-dose SI group,middle-dose SI group,high-dose SI group,sham group and normal control group.After bilateral ovaries were extirpated except sham and normal control groups for a week,the estrogen,different doses of SI or deionized water were fed with intragastric administration for 12 weeks.The rat body weight was weighted once per week and blood samples were collected at the time of ovariectomization,the 4th and 8th weeks after administeration at the time of being killed.The serum TC,triglyceride(TG),high or low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C,LDL-C),lipoprotein(a) and antioxygen enzyme were assayed. Results LDL-C levels in SI intervention groups were significantly lower than that in hyper-lipoid groups but higher than that in normal control group;the levels of lipoprotein(a) were changed;there was almost no effect on HDL-C in serum.SI could retain integrity and ultrastructure of hepatocyte;there was similar structure in high dose SI group and normal control group.An obvious damage was detected in hyper-lipoid group.Conclusion SI can improve lipoprotein(a) and lipid peroxidation in ovariectomized rats.A continuous intervention with high-SI can reduce LDL-C to normal lever and retain integrity and ultrastructure of hepatocyte.

Primary hepatic carcinoma, hepatic carcinoma for short, is a common gastrointestinal tumor with an insidious onset and rapid progression, and its incidence rate is increasing year by year, seriously threatening the life and health of our people. At present, there is still a lack of specific markers for early diagnosis and treatment of hepatic carcinoma, so the research on its biological characteristics and pathogenesis has become very urgent. Metabolic reprogramming is one of the main characteristics of tumor cells, and lipid metabolic reprogramming is involved in the occurrence and development of hepatic carcinoma. Therefore, the key metabolic enzymes and regulatory molecules in the process of lipid metabolism are considered as important targets for the diagnosis and treatment of hepatic carcinoma. This paper mainly focuses on the signaling pathways and regulatory molecules related to hepatocellular carcinoma lipid metabolism, as well as the related anti-hepatoma drugs, so as to provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of hepatic carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the operating strategies and essentials of minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) with tubular channel (Spotlight) to treat single-level lumbar degenerative diseases. Methods From November 2013 to December 2015, 97 patients (47 males and 50 females) underwent single-level lumbar degenerative diseases fol-lowing MIS-TLIF with Spotlight were analyzed, whose age were from 35-82 years old with the average age of 57.6±12.3 years old. The preoperative diagnosis was lumbar spinal stenosis in 63 cases, lumbar spondylolisthesis in 25 cases, and lumbar instability in 9 cases. The affected level was L3,4 in 9 cases, L4,5 in 66 cases, and L5S1 in 22 cases. According to distinct clinical manifestations and radiological characteristics, different approaches of Spotlight channels were employed. Unilateral decompression via unilateral channel was performed in 52 cases, bilateral decompression via unilateral channel was performed in 22 cases, and bilateral decom-pression via bilateral channel was performed in 23 cases. Clinical outcomes included operation duration, surgical blood loss, post-operative drainage volume and complications was recorded. Average intervertebral height, lumbar and surgical Cobb angle were utilized to evaluate the reduction of intervertebral height and lumbar lordosis. The low back and leg pain were represented as Visu-al Analogue Scale (VAS) score. The preoperative and postoperative Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score were recorded individu-ally to evaluate patients'functional recovery. Besides, the Bridwell criterion was introduced to define the extent of the lumbar fu-sion. The MacNab criterion was used for assessment of postoperative efficacy. Results The operation duration was 189.8 ± 41.3 min, the volume of surgical blood loss was 143.9 ± 102.0 ml and the volume of postoperative drainage 75.0 ± 59.0 ml in all cases. Among them, operation time was 165.0±24.2 min, surgical blood loss was 99.5±54.1 ml and postoperative drainage was 48.4±27.6 ml in the operation group of unilateral decompression via unilateral channel. The date in the group of Bilateral decompression via unilateral channel were 208.9 ± 46.0 min, 151.4 ± 96.3 ml, 88.0 ± 51.3 ml and in the group of bilateral decompression via bilateral channel were 225.4±32.0 min, 236.0±126.3 ml, 122.8±81.7 ml. All the patients were followed up for 16-42 months, the average follow-up time was 24.9 ± 7.0 months. Low back VAS reduced from 6.10 ± 0.84 preoperatively to 1.59 ± 0.49 at the final follow-up, leg VAS decreased from 6.56±0.85 preoperatively to 1.59±0.57 at the last follow-up, and ODI reduced from 59.36％±5.52％preop-eratively to 15.89％±2.90％at the final follow-up, compared with preoperative, the differences were significant. Average interverte-bral height improved from 9.92±2.25 mm preoperatively to 12.24±1.78 mm at latest follow-up time, which had statistically signifi-cant difference. Operative segment and lumbar Cobb angle were 13.81°±6.10° and 32.32°±11.97° preoperative, at the time of lat-est follow-up improved to 14.25° ± 5.57° and 35.83° ± 9.89° , Compared with preoperative, lumbar Cobb angle was significantly in-creased but operative segment Cobb had no significant difference. According to the criteria of Bridwell, intervertebral fusion at fi-nal follow-up of I and II grades were 90 cases in total (92.8％). The MacNab criteria was used to evaluate the clinical efficacy, which 69 were excellent, 23 were good, and 5 were acceptable, the excellent and good rate was 94.8％. Conclusion The tech-nique of MIS-TLIF with the tubular channel (Spotlight) is safe and efficient for the treatment of single segment lumbar degener-ative diseases. Different strategies can be selected by different preoperative clinical manifestations and radiological features.

Objective To investigate the modeling elements of various types of animal models for acute liver injury,and to provide references and suggestions to establish and evaluate animal models of acute liver injury(ALI).Methods The animal experimental literature of ALI from 2002 to 2022 was searched in the databases of the China Knowledge Network,WanFang,Chongqing Vip(VIP),Chinese Medical Journal Full Text Data(Yiigle),and PubMed.The animal species,positive control drugs,modeling method,modeling drugs,and drug administration of the animal models of ALI in the literature were summarized.The result were analyzed using Excel,SPSS Modeler 18.0,and Cytoscape 3.8.2.Results A total of 896 articles were included in the databases.The most used animal models for ALI were male KM mice.The modeling method were mainly chemical liver injury,alcoholic liver injury,drug-related liver injury,and immune liver injury.①The corresponding main modeling method were intraperitoneal injection of 10 mL/kg of 0.1％CC14 in vegetable oil at 24 h before experiments,②gavage of 12.0 mL/kg of 50.0％～56.0％ethanol at 16 h before experiments,③intraperitoneal injection of 300 mg/kg APAP at 24 h before experiments,④tail vein injection of 20 mg/kg Con A at 8 h before experiments.Evaluation of the models was based on liver pathological indexes as the gold standard combined with biochemical indexes of serum ALT,AST,and SOD and MDA contents and activities in liver tissue homogenate as direct indicators.Conclusions Because the causes of ALI vary in clinical practice,the preparation of animal models of ALI should be based on the specific study content and characteristics,and the corresponding modeling method should be selected.

Objective:To study the correlation between the acute-phase characteristics of motor evoked potential (MEP) and severities of spinal cord injury in patients with acute cervical hyperextension injury and central cord syndrome (CCS).Methods:Retrospectively analyzed were the data of 45 patients with acute cervical hyperextension injury and CCS (observation group) who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics, Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University from December 2018 to July 2021 and 20 healthy controls. Examination of transcranial magnetic stimulation-induced MEP was performed in patients with CCS and healthy controls using a magpro x100 magnetic stimulator, and recording was conducted in bilateral abductor pollicis brevis (APB). The characteristics of MEP waveform latency, amplitude and motor threshold were described and compared between the healthy control and observation groups; the correlations were analyzed between the MEP latency and the severity of spinal cord injury [American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) total score and motor function of Upper Extremity Motor Subscores (UEMS)] in the observation group. According to different MEP-induced states, the patients in the observation group were divided into a resting group ( n=19), a facilitation group ( n=18), and a no-waveform group ( n=8). The severity of spinal cord injury (ASIA total score) and the functional independence of the spinal cord (SCIM-Ⅲ score) were compared among the 3 groups to analyze the correlation between the MEP-induced state and the severity of spinal cord injury (ASIA total score). Results:The observation group had a significantly longer MEP latency [(30.16±6.32) ms], a significantly smaller amplitude [(0.54±0.30) mV] and a significantly higher motor threshold [(65%±11%)] than the healthy control group (all P<0.05). The MEP latency in the observation group was significantly correlated with ASIA total score ( r=-0.730, P<0.001) and UEMS ( r=-0.740, P<0.001). The ASIA total score and SCIM-Ⅲ score were significantly different among the 3 groups ( P<0.05), and the MEP-induced state was significantly correlated with the severity of spinal cord injury (ASIA total score) ( r=0.668, P<0.001). Conclusions:In patients with acute cervical hyperextension injury and CCS, the MEP latency is prolonged, the amplitude lowered, and the motor threshold enhanced. The MEP latency is strongly correlated with the severity of spinal cord injury and upper limb motor function. The MEP-induced state is also closely related to the severity of spinal cord injury.

Chaihu Guizhi Decoction is an excellent prescription of ZHANG Zhongjing;however,nowadays the application of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction is primarily derived from the text.The xiang thinking is the source of traditional Chinese medicine thinking.Understanding Chaihu Guizhi Decoction from the xiang thinking,it is easy to perceive the true meaning of ZHANG Zhongjing,and grasp the location of the disease and the patient's overall qi,so as to make better use of this formula.This article discusses the understanding of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction from five perspectives:firstly,it gives an overview of the xiang thinking,pointing out the source and essential value of the xiang thinking;secondly,it analyses the disease position and the patient's qi of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction under the perspective of the xiang thinking as a whole;thirdly,it discusses the disease position and the patient's qi of the original text of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction from the xiang thinking;fourthly,it discusses how to understand the principle of formula formation and the main and minor parts of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction by xiang thinking;finally,it analyses the primary medicines in Chaihu Guizhi Decoction by using xiang thinking based on the records of Shennong Bencao Jing.Based on these five points,we hope to reveal the traditional Chinese medicine thinking behind Chaihu Guizhi Decoction,and provide new ideas for the clinical application of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction.

Hepatic ascites is one of the common and difficult complications in the decompensated stage of liver cirrhosis， and its incidence is increasing. In clinical practice， the prognosis of patients with hepatic ascites after surgery is worse， and the disease is recurrent. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has certain advantages in treating hepatic ascites. However， there is no uniform standard for the preparation of animal models of hepatic ascites in accordance with TCM evidence. Therefore， this paper summarized the literature on animal models of hepatic ascites and analyzed the existing animal models of hepatic ascites based on the clinical diagnostic criteria of hepatic ascites in TCM and western medicine. The results show that the commonly used modeling methods for hepatic ascites mainly include the single-factor method， composite factor induction method， surgical method， and immunization method. Most of them are guided by western medicine theories， and their pathogenic mechanisms are mostly consistent with those of western medicine and are different from TCM evidence. Therefore， it is suggested that TCM intervening factors should be imposed in the process of model preparation， so as to prepare an animal model of hepatic ascites that meets the clinical evidence characteristics of TCM and western medicine.

Post-stroke depression is a common complication after a stroke. Based on the theory of ＂deficiency of heart qi leading to sadness＂recorded in Huangdi Neijing, our team proposes that deficiency of heart qi is the basic pathogenesis of post-stroke depression, with sadness being its main manifestation. Therefore, we advocate treating post-stroke depression from the perspective of the heart, and clinically, it can be divided into four stages: heart-liver stage, heart-lung stage, heart-spleen stage, and heart-kidney stage. Treating post-stroke depression with the principle of regulating qi and nourishing the heart, patients in the heart-liver and heart-lung stages are mainly middle-aged and young adults, with a pathological nature of qi stagnation and mild deficiency of heart qi, and therefore, the method of promoting the flow of meridians and regulating qi should be adopted. In contrast, patients in the heart-spleen and heart-kidney stages are mainly middle-aged and elderly, with a pathological nature of qi deficiency and severe deficiency of heart qi, and therefore, nourishment and tonification should be prioritized. In response to the above four stages, our team has achieved good clinical efficacy by administering Xiaoyao Powder, Baihe Dihuang Decoction, Ganmai Dazao Decoction and Jingui Shenqi Pill respectively. This study discusses the approach to treating post-stroke depression from the perspective of a "deficiency of heart qi leading to sadness" by examining three aspects: the theoretical basis of Chinese and Western medicine to treat post-stroke depression from the heart, the basic pathogenesis and staging of post-stroke depression, and the treatment principle of regulating qi and nourishing the heart. The study also briefly analyzes the clinical experience of the medications used for this condition to provide a reference for the treatment of post-stroke depression.
