Objective:To evaluate the value of shear wave elastography (SWE) and salivary gland ultrasound scoring(SGUS) system in the diagnosis of salivary glands lesions in patients with Sj?gren′s syndrome(SS) and to compare the diagnostic efficiency of the two methods.Methods:From June 2019 to November 2020, Fifty-eight patients with suspected SS were selected from the Affiliated Changzhou No.2 People′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University. According to the 2002 American-European Consensus Group classification standard, the enrolled patients were divided into two groups: SS group (47 cases) and non-SS group(11 cases). According to symptom duration, SS group was divided into the ≤5 years group (29 cases) and the >5 years group (18 cases). Meanwhile, 40 healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study as normal control group. The diagnostic value of salivary gland ultrasound scoring system and Young′s modulus in SS were analyzed.Results:The differences in Young′s modulus of parotid gland and submandibular gland between SS group and non-SS group (or control group) were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The ultrasound score of SS group was significantly higher than that of non-SS group and control group (all P<0.05). SGUS and Young′s modulus were not significantly different between different course groups (all P>0.05). The areas under ROC curve of the mean Young′s value in parotid and submandibular gland and the SGUS were 0.801, 0.829 and 0.676, respectively. The comparison of the area under the curve between the Young′s modulus of the parotid and submandibular glands and the ultrasound score was statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:SWE and Ultrasonography scoring system have certain value in the diagnosis of salivary gland lesions in SS, and can provide important reference information for clinical diagnosis from different perspectives. The diagnostic efficiency of SWE for salivary glands lesions in patients with SS is better than that of SGUS scoring system.

OBJECTIVE：To provide reference for the quality control of the leaves of Toricellia angulata . METHODS ：HPLC method was adopted. The determination was performed on Agela Promosil C 18 column with 0.2％ phosphoric acid solution-acetonitrile（gradient elution ）as mobile phase at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 210 nm，and column temperature was 35 ℃. The sample size was 10 μL. HPLC fingerprint of 10 batches of the leaves of T. angulata was established and similarity evaluation was conducted by using Similarity Evaluation System of TCM Chromatographic Fingerprint（2004 edition）. The chromatographic peak was identified by comparing with the chromatogram of reference substance. Cluster analysis ，PCA and PLS-DA were used to identify chemical patterns ，and the quality differential markers were screened. The contents of hyperoside and isoquercitrin were determined by the same HPLC. RESULTS ：The similarities of HPLC fingerprint of 10 batches of the leaves of T. angulata with control fingerprint were 0.923-0.983. A total of 11 common peaks were identified ，and the peaks 4 and 5 were hyperoside and isoquercitrin ，respectively. Results of cluster analysis ，PCA and PLS-DA showed that 10 batches of leaves of T. angulata could be divided into two categories ，Y10 was clustered into one category ，and others were clustered into one category. PLS-DA analysis showed that 6 common peaks （peaks 4，3，10，2，6 and 11） with variable importance projection （VIP）greater than 1 were selected. Average contents of hyperoside and isoquercitrin in 10 batches of the leaves of T. angulata were 0.47-6.97，0.21-1.87 mg/g，respectively. CONCLUSIONS ：Established HPLC fingerprint and the method for content determination are stable and reliable ，and can be used for the quality control of the leaves of T. angulata from different areas. Six quality differential markers including hyperoside in the leaves of T. angulata from different areas are qnyz202034） preliminarily screened.
