Objective: To characterize the incidence density of systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Yinzhou District of Ningbo from 2016 to 2021, and compare the age and gender specific differences. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted based on the related data from 2015 to 2021 collected from the Health Information Platform of Yinzhou. Suspected SLE cases in local residents were identified by fuzzy matching of International Classification of Diseases 10th edition code "M32" or Chinese text "lupus". The classification criteria from Systemic Lupus International Collaboration Clinics-2012 and The European League Against Rheumatism/American College of Rheumatology-2019 were used for case verification. SLE cases were identified with specific algorithm based on verification results, and new cases were identified with 1 year as the washout period. The incidence density and 95%CI were estimated by Poisson distribution. Results: From 2016 to 2021, a total of 1 551 921 permanent residents were registered in Yinzhou, in whom 51.52% were women. The M(Q1,Q3) age at enrollment was 40.38 (27.54, 53.54) years. The M(Q1,Q3) of follow-up person-years was 3.83 (0.41, 5.83) years. There were 451 new SLE cases, in which 352 were women (78.05%). The 6-year incidence density was 8.14/100 000 person-years (95%CI: 7.41/100 000 person-years-8.93/100 000 person-years) for the total population, 3.68/100 000 person-years (95%CI: 2.99/100 000 person-years-4.48/100 000 person-years) for men and 12.37/100 000 person-years (95%CI: 11.11/100 000 person-years- 13.73/100 000 person-years) for women. The incidence density in men appeared a small peak at 20-29 years old, and began to increase with age from 40 years old. The incidence density in women was highest in age group 20-29 years (16.57/100 000 person-years) and remained to be high until 30-79 years old. The incidence density of SLE in Yinzhou show no significant temporal trend from 2016 to 2021 (men: P=0.848; women: P=1.000). Conclusions: The incidence density of SLE in Yinzhou from 2016 to 2021 was similar to those of other areas in China. SLE has a high incidence in women, especially in the young and elderly, suggesting that more attention should be paid to the diagnosis and treatment of SLE in women.

Aim To study the effect of salidroside (SAL) on cerebral vascular endothelial cells of rats with ischemic brain injury and its mechanism of action. Methods Twenty-four healthy adult SD male rats were prepared by bolt plugging method to prepare MCAO models,and randomly divided into sham surgery group ( Sham ) , model group ( MCAO ) , and SAL administration group (MCAO + SAL) ,and the concentration of SAL was 50 mg • kg ~ , with a continuous administration for six days. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1 , E-se-lectin,and P-selectin in injured brain tissue of rats. In vitro cell experiments using HUVECs were subjected to different concentrations of salidroside (0. 1,1,10 jjunol • L ) and LPS (100 ^g • L ) intervened for 24 hours,and CCK-8 was employed to detect the effects of SAL and LPS on the survival of HUVECs. In vitro an-giogenesis experiments, LPS group ( 100 (jLg • L~ ) and SAL administration group ( LPS + Sal) intervened in HUVECs for 24 hours,and the concentrations of SAL administration were 0. 1,1, and 10 jjunol • L , then the effects of LPS and SAL on their angiogenesis were observed. The protein expressions of ICAM-1, VCAM-1 ,E-selectin,and P-selectin in HUVECs were detected by Western blot. Results SAL could reduce the expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, E-selectin, and P-selectin in ischemic brain tissue of MCAO rats. In vitro experimental studies found that salidroside had no effect on the survival of HUVECs. LPS inhibited the angiogenesis of HUVECs, and after the action of SAL, SAL (1,10 jjimol • L ) reversed the effect of LPS and promoted its angiogenesis. Compared with the control group,the expressions of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, E-selectin and P-selectin of HUVECs after LPS stimulation increased, while the expressions of ICAM-1, VCAM-1 , E-selectin and P-selectin were significantly reduced after the addition of SAL, which promoted the angiogenesis ability of HUVECs. Conclusions SAL can improve the ability of cell regeneration in rats with ischemic brain injury and promote the ability of blood vessel formation.

OBJECTIVE:
To compare the clinical efficacy of lengthened proximal femoral nail anti-rotation(PFNA) combined with minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis(MIPPO) and common PFNA in the treatment of AO-A3.3 intertrochanteric fracture.
METHODS:
The clinical data of 58 patients with AO-A3.3 intertrochanteric fracture treated from January 2015 to April 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 27 patients were treated with extended PFNA + MIPPO plate to reconstruct the lateral wall (group A), and 31 patients were treated with closed reduction and PFNA fixation (group B). The bleeding volume, operation time, femoral neck length and tip apex distance(TAD), fracture healing time and postoperative complications were observed and compared between two groups. Harris score was used to evaluate hip joint function 10 months after operation.
RESULTS:
All patients were followed up for 12 to 28 months. The incision healed well after operation. The bleeding volume and operation time of group A were significantly more than that of group B (P<0.05), and the fracture healing time of group A was significantly less than that of group B(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the length of femoral neck between two groups at 2 days after operation(P>0.05). The length of femoral neck at 6 months after operation in each group was shorter than that at 2 days after operation(P<0.05), and the shortening of femoral neck at 6 months after operation in group B was significantly shorter than that in group A(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in TAD values between two groups at the same time point(P>0.05) at 2 days and 6 months after operation. There was no significant difference in TAD values between 2 days and 6 months after operation(P>0.05). The incidence of complications in group B was significantly higher than that in group A(P<0.05). The Harris scores of hip joint function in group A were higher than those in group B 10 months after operation (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
Compared with the treatment of AO-A3 femoral intertrochanteric fracture with closed reduction and PFNA fixation, the lengthened PFNA combined with MIPPO small plate for reconstruction and fixation of the lateral wall can promote the fracture healing, improve the patient's functional recovery, and significantly reduce the complications.

OBJECTIVE:
To study the trend of surgical type, surgical procedure and etiological distribution of upper urinary tract repair in recent 10 years.
METHODS:
The preoperative and perioperative variables and follow-up data of upper urinary tract reconstruction surgery in RECUTTER (Reconstruction of Urinary Tract: Technology, Epidemiology and Result) database from 2010 to 2021 were searched, collected and analyzed. The surgical type, surgical procedure, duration of hospitalization, time of operation, incidence of short-term complications, and proportion of the patients undergoing reoperations were compared between the two groups of 2010-2017 period and 2018-2021 period.
RESULTS:
A total of 1 072 patients were included in the RECUTTER database. Congenital factors and iatrogenic injuries were the main causes of upper urinary tract repair. Among them, 129 (12.0%) patients had open operation, 403 (37.6%) patients had laparoscopic surgery, 322 (30.0%) patients had robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery and 218 (20.3%) patients had endourological procedure. In the last decade, the total number of surgeries showed a noticeable increasing annual trend and the proportion of robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery in 2018-2021 was significantly higher than that in 2010-2017 (P < 0.001). The 1 072 patients included 124 (11.6%) cases of ileal ureter replacements, 440 (41.1%) cases of pyeloplasty, 229 (21.4%) cases of balloon dilation, 109 (10.2%) cases of ureteral reimplantation, 49 (4.6%) cases of boari flap-Psoas hitch surgery, 60 (5.6%) cases of uretero-ureteral anastomosis, 61 (5.7%) cases of lingual mucosal onlay graft ureteroplasty or appendiceal onlay flap ureteroplasty. Pyeloplasty and balloon dilatation had been the main types of surgery, while the proportion of lingual mucosal onlay graft ureteroplasty plus appendiceal onlay flap ureteroplasty had increased significantly in recent years (P < 0.05). In addition, the time of operation was significantly increased (P < 0.05) after 2018, which was considered to be related to the sharp increase in the proportion of robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery. We found that minimally invasive surgery (endourological procedure and robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery) as an independent risk factor (P=0.050, OR=0.472) could reduce the incidence of short-term post-operative complications.
CONCLUSION
We have justified the value of the RECUTTER database, created by the Institute of Urology, Peking University in data support for clinical research work, and provided valuable experience for the construction of other multi-center databases at home and abroad. In recent 10 years, we have observed that, in upper urinary tract reconstruction surgery, the surgery type tends to be minimally invasive and the surgery procedure tends to be complicated, suggesting the superiority of robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery.

The name, origin, place of origin, medicinal parts, harvesting and processing of lotus are verified by consulting ancient Chinese herbal medicines and medical books, combined with modern literature, providing a basis for the development of famous classical formulas containing lotus. According to textual research, the original base of lotus is Nelumbo nucifera since ancient times, rhizome (Nelumbinis Rhizomatis Nodus), leaf (Nelumbinis Folium), seed (Nelumbinis Semen), embryo (Nelumbinis Plumula), receptacle (Nelumbinis Receptaculum), stamen (Nelumbinis Stamen) and other medicinal parts of N. nucifera can be used as medicine and have different clinical effects. Nelumbinis Semen was originally produced in Henan, and then gradually expanded to Jiangnan. Today, it can be cultivated and planted throughout the country, with Fujian, Hunan, and Jiangxi as the authentic production areas. After combing the medicinal parts of N. nucifera and the historical evolution of its processing, it is suggested that the dried and mature fruits of N. nucifera taking in autumn and removing the shell and Nelumbinis Plumula should be used in Qingxin Lianziyin. Nelumbinis Folium in Erdongtang should be harvested in summer and autumn, and the raw products was used as medicine and processed in accordance with the provision of the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia.

Based on the ancient literature of all dynasties, this article makes a systematic textual research on the name, origin, producing area, quality, harvesting and processing of Zisu (Perillae) in the famous classical formulas, so as to clarify the information of the drug in different historical periods and provide a reference for the development and utilization of the related formulas. The main origin of Perillae in the ancient literature was Perilla frutescens var. frutescens (purple leaf type), followed by P. frutescens var. acuta (purple leaf type), but not Baisu. Modern chemical composition studies also show that there are obvious differences between Perillae and Baisu, which provides a scientific basis for distinguishing them. Although they are often treated as a species in plant classification, P. frutescens var. frutescens (purple leaf type) is recommended in the development of famous classical formulas, and Baisu should be avoided. Perillae is widely distributed, but its producing area did not record in most of the literature in the past dynasties, or the producing area is described as everywhere today. In the period of the Southern and Northern dynasties, the medicinal parts of Perillae included stems, leaves and seeds, and doctors in the Ming dynasty began to pay attention to the differentiation of different medicinal parts. The harvesting and processing methods of Perillae in the past dynasties are close to that of today. Perillae Fructus is mostly stir-fried and ground into medicine, Perillae Folium and Perillae Caulis are mainly simple cleansing. In production, we can refer to the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia.

By referring to the relevant ancient herbal literature, medical records and prescription books, the textual research of Violae Herba has been conducted to verify the name, origin, producing area, quality evaluation and processing method changes. The results showed that the name of Zihua Diding originated from its flower color and plant morphological characteristics. The primitive plant of Violae Herba is Viola genus of Violaceae, V. yedoensis, as stipulated in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia, has been the mainstream in past dynasties of China. Violae Herba is mainly wild, and it is widely distributed throughout the country. Since modern times, the quality of Violae Herba is better with integrity, green color and yellow root. There are few records on the harvesting and processing methods of Violae Herba in ancient times, most of which are directly used after drying. It is suggested that the collection and processing methods of Violae Herba in the famous classical formulas can be implemented in accordance with the provisions of the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia.
