OBJECTIVE To screen the potential active components of Polygonum orientale flower against myocardial ischemia- reperfusion injury (MIRI) in rats based on physiological and pathological states. METHODS SD rats were divided into normal control group, normal administration group, MIRI control group and MIRI administration group, with 5 rats in each group. After drug intervention or modeling and drug intervention, chromatographic separation plasma samples were collected, and chromatographic separation and mass spectrometry data collection were performed by using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS. The prototype components and metabolites were analyzed by comparing the reference substance maps, the maps of each plasma sample, and the relevant literature. At the same time, the common peaks in plasma samples of rats in normal administration group and MIRI administration group were identified. Combined with principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least square-discriminant analysis, the differential transitional components were screened out according to the value of variable importance in the projection (VIP)>1, to speculate the potential active components of P. orientale flower in rats under physiological and pathological states. The SD rats were divided into control group, MIRI group, positive control group (Compound danshen tablets 0.2 g/kg, 3 times a day), and potentially active compound groups (10 mg/kg, twice a day), with 5 rats in each group. The rats in administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically, for 3 consecutive days. The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), the leakages of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase isoenzyme-MB (CK-MB) and cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnⅠ) in plasma were detected after the last administration. RESULTS Twenty-six main chromatographic peaks were obtained from the total ion chromatogram of the extract of P. orientale flower, and 14 of them were determined, including gallic acid, catechin, protocatechuic acid and so on. There were fifteen (including 6 absorbed prototype components and 9 metabolites) and nineteen transitional components (including 6 absorbed prototype components and 13 metabolites) in the plasma sample of normal rats and MIRI rats. Eight transitional components were detected in both normal rats and MIRI rats, and the VIP values of kaempferol glucuronidation metabolites, quercetin carbonylation metabolites and N-p-paprazine to the corresponding peak were higher than 1. Compared with MIRI group, the activities of SOD were increased significantly in the plasma of MIRI rats in each potential active compound group (P<0.01), and the leakages of LDH, CK-MB, and cTnⅠ in the plasma of MIRI rats were reduced significantly (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS The potential anti-MIRI active components in extract of P. orientale flower are N-p-paprazine, quercetin, kaempferol and kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucoside.

Objective:To preliminarily explore the clinical value of three-dimensional ultrasound fusion imaging(3DUS FI) visualization technology in guiding precise needle placement during thermal ablation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:A total of 56 HCC patients (59 lesions)who underwent 3DUS FI guided thermal ablation were retrospectively analyzed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from November 2019 to December 2021. All patients were collected with three-dimensional ultrasound volume image before ablation which were fused with real-time two-dimensional ultrasound image for registration, and then the tumor and the safety margin of 5 mm were segmented and marked. Finally, the thermal ablation was performed under three-dimensional visualization. Contrast-enhanced CT/MRI was performed 1 month after thermal ablation to evaluate whether the lesion was completely ablated and measure the ablative margin, and the relationship between ablative margin and the incidence of local tumor progression (LTP) was also analyzed.Results:During the ablation, all lesions could be successfully registered and displayed in three-dimension. Postoperative contrast-enhanced ultrasound showed that all lesions were completely ablated. A total of 37 lesions could be evaluated for ablative efficacy and ablative margin based on contrast-enhanced CT/MRI 1 month after themal ablation, of which 32 (86.5%) lesions achieved complete ablation and obtained at least 5 mm ablative margin. During the follow-up period, LTP was occurred in 4 lesions, 3 of the lesions occurred at the ablative margin< 5 mm. Both 1-year and 2-year cumulative LTP rates were all 7.1%. None of patients had serious complications or deaths associated with thermal ablation.Conclusions:3DUS FI real-time guidance technology is feasible and safe in visually guiding precise needle placement during thermal ablation of HCC.

Objective:
To examine the eating behaviors and associated factors among preschool children from multiple child families, so as to provide a basis for promoting healthy eating habits in this population.
Methods:
From April to June 2022, a stratified random cluster sampling method was employed to selected 2 647 guardians of preschool children in 11 kindergartens in Tongling City. Parenting style questionnaire, Identification and Management of Feeding Difficulty Questionnaire (IMFeD), Caregiver s Feeding Style Questionnaire (CFSQ) and a self designed questionnaire were administered. Multiple linear regression was performed to analyze the factors influencing eating behaviors among preschool children.
Results:
In the study, the detection of eating behavior problems among preschool children was 71.4%, and the detection of reduced appetite was the highest (55.6%). The detection rates of anorexia, picky eating, poor eating and improper eating behavior in only child families were higher (60.6%, 41.0%, 32.0%, 19.5%), compared with those in multiple child families (51.7%, 36.4%, 27.2%, 16.6%) ( χ 2=20.05, 5.95, 7.16, 3.92, P < 0.05 ). Among multiple child families, the detection rates of fear of eating and underlying disease were the lowest in 5-<10-year-old group (2.3%, 0.6%) ( χ 2=11.54, 8.51, P <0.05). In multiple child families, the detection rates of picky eating and poor eating habits for the first-born child were higher (42.0%, 32.5%), compared with second born and third born child (34.6%, 25.6%)( χ 2= 6.15, 6.38, P <0.05). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that multiplechild families ( β =-1.40), democratic parenting style ( β =-0.07), higher feeding response scores ( β =-0.33) were negatively associated with eating behavior problems among preschool children ( P <0.05). Eating behavior problems among preschool children were positively correlated with less educated mothers [high and junior high school education ( β =0.87), primary school education and below ( β =3.69)], longer average daily screen time ( β =0.10), higher feeding requirements scores ( β =0.64), doting parenting styles ( β =0.21), permissive parenting styles ( β =0.27) and inconsistent parenting styles ( β =0.14)( P <0.05).
Conclusion
The detection rate of the eating behaviors problems among preschool children is high in schools. Greater attention should be paid to only child and first born child of multiple child families, and appropriate feeding and parenting styles, so as to promote healthy eating habits among this population.

OBJECTIVE: To study in vitro metabolism pathway of effective component of Bletilla striata as Militarine in liver microsomes and kinetics characteristics of enzyme-catalyzed reactions. METHODS: The in vitro incubation system of rat and human liver microsomes was established, and incubation reaction of Militarine was performed. UPLC-QTOF-MS was used to identify the structure of its metabolites in combination with UNIFI database and references. Using puerarin as internal standard, UPLC-Triple Quad-MS was used to quantitatively analyze metabolic transformation of Militarine in rat liver microsomes. The kinetic parameters (vmax, km, CLint) of Militarine enzyme-catalyzed reactions with/without reducing coenzyme Ⅱ (NADPH) were calculated by fitting the curves with GraphPad Prism 5.0 software. RESULTS: After incubation in rat and human liver microsomes, Militarine produced a chemical formula C21H29O11, which was presumed to be a metabolite of Militarine ester bond hydrolysis. The kinetic study of enzyme-catalyzed reactions showed that vmax of Militarine enzyme-catalyzed reactions with/without NADPH were 1.955, 2.129 nmol/(h·mg); km were 8.601, 9.854 nmol/mL; CLint were 0.227 3, 0.216 1 mL/(h·mg); there was no significant difference between with NADPH and without NADPH. CONCLUSIONS: The main metabolic pathway of Militarine in liver microsomes is the hydrolysis of C1 and C4 ester bonds. Its metabolism does not depend on the pathway of cytochrome P450 enzymes initiated by NADPH.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate absorption kinetic characteristics of main active components as 4-(glucoseoxy)- glucoseoxybenzyl cinnamate (A1), 2-isobutyl malic acid (A2), 1,4-bis [4-(glucoxy) benzyl]-2-isobutyl malic acid ester (A3), dihydrophenanthrenes 1 (A4) and 1,4-bis [4-(glucosoxy) benzyl]-2-isobutyl malic acid ester-2-(4-O-cinnamoyl-6-O-acetyl) glucoside (A5) from ethanol extract of Bletilla striata in the intestines of rats. METHODS: Using puerarin as internal standard, UPLC-MS/MS was used to determined the concentration of A1-A5 in intestinal circulation fluid. The determination was performed on Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile (containing 0.1% formic acid)-water (containing 0.1% formic acid) (gradient elution) at the flow rate of 0.35 mL/min. The column temperature was 45 ℃, and sample size was 3 μL. The positive ion and negative ion scanning were carried out in the multiple reaction monitoring mode by electrospray ion source. The ion pairs for quantitative analysis were m/z 593.2→431.1 (A1), m/z 189.0→129.0 (A2), m/z 725.3→457.2 (A3), m/z 347.1→332.1 (A4), m/z 1 059.3→793.1 (A5), m/z 417.0→267.0 (internal standard). In the in vivo intestinal circulation perfusion model, using accumulative absorption transfer rate (A) and absorption and transformation rate constant (Ka) as indexes, the effects of different doses of ethanol extract from B. striata (low-, medium-, high-dose were 166, 333,667 μg/mL,respectively), bile, P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors (verapamil) and different intestinal segments on the absorption of above 5 components were investigated. RESULTS: The linear range of A1, A2, A3, A4 and A5 were 0.22-14.00, 0.34-21.75, 1.99-127.16, 0.15-9.75, 0.16-10.00 μg/mL(r>0.99). The limits of quantitation were 0.22, 0.34, 1.99, 0.15, 0.16 μg/mL, respectively. The lowest detection limits were 0.028, 0.085, 0.251, 0.035 and 0.010 μg/mL. RSDs of inter-day and intra-day were all lower than 10%. The recoveries ranged 83.60%-106.91%. Matrix effect did not affect the determination of the substance to be measured. A and Ka values of A1 in B. striata ethanol extract low-dose and medium-dose groups were significantly higher than high-dose group; A value of A3 in low-dose group was significantly higher than medium-dose and high-dose groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01). A and Ka values of A1 and A3 in non-ligation group were significantly lower than control group, while A and Ka values of A4 were significantly higher than control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). A and Ka values of A1 and A3 in P-gp inhibitor group were significantly lower than control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). A values of A1 in jejunum group, ileum group and colon group, Ka value of A1 in colon group, A and Ka values of A2 in colon group, A value of A3 in ileum group, A and Ka values of A4 in ileum group and colon group, A values of A5 in jejunum group and ileum group as well as Ka value of A5 in jejunum group were all significantly lower than duodenum group. Ka values of A3 in jejunum group, ileum group and colon group were significantly higher than duodenum group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Established UPLC-MS/MS method is specific, sensitive and simple, and it can be used for quantitative analysis and pharmacokinetic study of A1-A5. The 5 active components in B. striata ethanol extract are absorbed by the whole intestine, and the intestinal segments are different. A1 and A3 are absorbed more in intestinal tract and may be saturated. Bile can inhibit intestinal absorption of A1 and A2, but promoted intestinal absorption of A4. A1-A5 may not be the substrate of P-gp.
