OBJECTIVE:To improve the quality standard of Jianpi zhixiening granules. METHODS:TLC was applied for qual-itative identification of Scutellaria baicalensis,Crategi Fructus,Lonicerae japonicae,Codonopsis Radix,Nelumbo nucifera,Copti-dis Rhizoma. The contents of berberine hydrochloride and baicalin were determined by HPLC. The determination was performed on Shimadzu VP-ODS column with mobile phase consisted of methanol-acetonitrile-water (46:30:42,V/V/V,berberine hydrochlo-ride))(0.1% sodium dodecylsulphate,0.1% phosphoric acid,methanol-0.4% phosphoric acid(50:50,V/V,baicalin)at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelengths were set at 265 nm (berberine hydrochloride) and 280 nm (baicalin). The column temperature was 30 ℃,and sample size was 10 μL. RESULTS:TLC spots of S. baicalensis,Crategi Fructus,L. Japonicae,Co-donopsis Radix,N. nucifera,Coptidis Rhizoma were clear and well-separated without negative interference. The linear ranges of berberine hydrochloride and baicalin were 6.67-33.34 μg/mL(r=0.9998)and 7.7-38.7 μg/mL(r=0.9999). RSDs of precision,sta-bility and reproducibility tests were all lower than 1.0% . The recoveries were 96.5% -99.9%(RSD=1.2% ,n=6)and 101.1%-102.9%(RSD=0.6%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:Improved standard can be used for quality control of Jianpi zhixiening granules.

Objective:To analysis the predictive value of peripheral blood T-helper cells (Th17), regulatory T cells (Treg) and Th17/Treg in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) comorbid cardiovascular disease.Methods:A total of 180 RA patients treated in Honghu Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2022 to January 2023 were selected retrospectively, they were divided into comorbidity group (72 cases) and RA group (108 cases) according to whether they had cardiovascular disease. The general data of patients were collected, the levels of peripheral blood Th17, Treg were measured by flow cytometry, the Th17/Treg ration was calculated. The risk factors of RA comorbid cardiovascular disease were analyzed by binary Logistic regression, and the predictive value of Th17 and Treg for RA comorbid cardiovascular disease was analyzed by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:The levels of male proportion, uric acid, Th17, Th17/Treg ratio were increased, and Treg were decreased in the comorbidity group compared to the RA group: 63.89%(46/72) vs. 44.44%(48/108), 350.00(288.00, 404.50) μmol/L vs. 316.00 (257.50, 382.50) μmol/L, (11.28 ± 4.22)% vs. (6.60 ± 2.98)%, 3.55 ± 6.53 vs. 1.48 ± 2.54, (5.10 ± 2.19)% vs. (6.75 ± 2.86)%, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that Th17 and Th17/Treg ratio were risk factors for RA comorbid cardiovascular disease, and Treg cell ratio was a protective factor for RA comorbid cardiovascular disease (all P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) predicted by Th17 and Th17/Treg for RA comorbid cardiovascular disease were 0.814 and 0.785, respectively. The AUC predicted by Th17 for RA comorbid coronary heart disease, ischemic stroke and peripheral atherosclerosis were 0.804, 0.832, and 0.784, respectively. The AUC predicted by Th17/Treg for RA comorbid coronary heart disease, ischemic stroke and peripheral atherosclerosis were 0.763, 0.792, and 0.883, respectively. Conclusions:Th17, Treg and Th17/Treg are the possible influencing factors of RA comorbid cardiovascular disease, and Th17, Th17/Treg have a certain predictive value for RA comorbid cardiovascular disease.

Acute high altitude disease (AHAD) is a general term for a series of clinical reactions that occur when the body fails to adapt to the low-pressure hypoxic environment of high altitudes. Mild cases can cause symptoms such as headache, nausea and vomiting, while more severe cases can lead to life-threatening conditions such as pulmonary edema, cerebral edema and other critical conditions that can be fatal. With the increasing demand for high altitudes deployment, understanding the common preventive measures of AHAD can reduce its morbidity or mortality to a certain extent, which is of great benefit to those who reside temporarily at high altitudes. In recent years, as people's health awareness has improved, there has been a growing attention towards non-pharmacological methods of disease prevention. At the same time, non-pharmacological therapy has significant therapeutic effects in preventing and treating high-altitude diseases, which has attracted the attention of researchers in this field. This review summarizes the major non-pharmacological preventive components of modern medicine and outlines the current non-pharmacological approaches to AHAD from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, intending to serve clinical purposes and improve the onset and prognosis of AHAD.

Objective:To establish the quality evaluation method of Perillae caulis formula granules based on the three kind of quality indexes of standard decoction. Methods:Eighteen batches of Perillae caulis were collected from different habitats according to different technical requirements, eighteen batches of standard decoction and three batches of formula granules were prepared and the paste-forming rates were calculated. The content of Caffeic acid and Rosmarinic acid were determined and calculated by Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC). Then the fingerprints of standard decoction of and formula granules of Perillae caulis were established by UPLC . The similarity values of fingerprints between formula granules and standard decoction were calculated. Results:The average paste-forming rate of standard decoction was (7.16±1.97)%. The paste-forming rates of three batches of formula granules were 5.52%, 5.25% and 5.34%, respectively. The average content of Caffeic acid and Rosmarinic acid in standard decoction was (12.06±3.37)mg/g. The contents of three batches of formula granules were 5.52, 5.82, 5.77 mg/g, respectively. Seven common fingerprint peaks were identified in the fingerprints of standard decoction and formula granules, three of which were identified as Caffeic acid, N-Feruloyl Octopus amine and Rosmarinic acid by comparison of reference substance. The fingerprints similarity of Perillae caulis dispensing granules and standard decoction were 1.000, 0.995 and 0.997, respectively. Conclusions:The quality indexes of three batches of formulation granules are consistent with standard decoction. This method can provide basis for the establishment of quality standard of Perillae caulis dispensing granules.
