Objective To investigate the active ingredients of Zizyphi Spinosae Semen(ZSS)in relieving benzodiazepine(BDZ)dependence and its molecular mechanism based on the integrated Traditional Chinese Medicine and chemical drugs idea of"enhancing effect and reducing toxicity"via the approach of network pharmacology and the technique of molecular dynamics simulation.Methods First,literature search was undertaken to find the main components of ZSS.Then,the major effective constituents of ZSS in relieving BDZ dependence and its target of action were explored on the basis of network pharmacology and molecular docking.Finally,the relationship between core components of ZSS and key proteins was further verified through the technique of molecular dynamics simulation.Results After literature search,a total of 24 chemical components in ZSS were found to act on 731 targets.Through establishing the network of"ingredients-targets-pathways",topology analysis was performed to obtain nine core components such as linoleic acid,palmitic acid,oleic acid,tetradecanoic acid,spinosin,oleanolic acid and jujuboside A,as well as five key targets including AR,PTGS2,PPARG,RXRA and CYP19A1.Bioinformation enrichment analysis was made to obtain critical pathways such as calcium signaling pathway,cAMP signaling pathway,IL-17 signaling pathway and TNF signaling pathway.The results of molecular docking revealed that there was a good combination between core components of ZSS and key targets,and it was mainly dominated by hydrogen bonding.Furthermore,the molecular dynamics simulation experiments indicated that the combinations between jujuboside A and RXRA,oleanolic acid and RXRA,spinosin and PPARG were stable,and these three active ingredients played an important role in improving BDZ dependence.Conclusion The active components in ZSS may exert multi-target and multi-pathway intervention effects on BDZ dependence by means of processes such as immunoregulation,anti-anxiety,and anti-insomnia.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and effect of remote medical education model using online film reading training to improve the ability of ophthalmologists in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (hereinafter referred to as "Xinjiang Region" ) in diagnosing fundus diseases.Methods:The three-level film reading training system of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps system division hospital-Corps Hospital-Peking Union Medical College Hospital was established. From June 2022 to January 2023, 4 159 posterior color fundus images were continuously collected from Department of Ophthalmology of Xinjiang Corps Hospital and 4 divisional hospitals in the Corps medical system. Among them, hypertensive retinopathy, diabetic retinopathy, exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD), atrophic AMD and retinal vein occlusion were 3 073, 651, 43, 186 and 206 cases, respectively. The images were divided into 3 rounds (first, second and last) according to the proportion of diseases. The doctors who participated in the training (hereinafter referred to as the "training") were 15 ophthalmologists from the Corps Hospital of Xinjiang Region and the division hospital of the Corps system. There were 7 male and 8 female. Age was (38.1±4.0) years. The titles of senior, deputy senior, intermediate and junior are 1, 6, 5 and 3 respectively; Bachelor's degree and master's degree are 13 and 2 respectively. The working time of fundus disease specialty was (9.6±3.3) years. The film reading system training was conducted before the first round of labeling, and after each round of film reading, the doctors of Peking Union Medical College Hospital gave feedback and explanation on the film reading results. The diagnostic consistency, sensitivity and specificity were compared by paired sample t test. Spearman or Pearson correlation analysis was conducted between the improvement of diagnostic level and professional title, education, age and working hours of ocular fundus disease. Results:All the participating doctors completed the first, second and last reading. After each round of film reading, the film reading summary was carried out for 2 hours. The average diagnostic agreement rates of participating physicians were 53.0%, 67.0% and 75.0%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity were 0.38, 0.69, 054 and 0.66, 0.85, 0.96, respectively. There was significant difference between the first and last examination ( P<0.001). The sensitivity of the second reading was significantly higher than that of the first reading, and the sensitivity of the last reading was significantly lower than that of the second reading, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). The specificity of the second reading was significantly higher than that of the first reading, and the last reading was significantly higher than that of the second reading, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). There was no significant correlation ( P>0.05) between the improvement of diagnostic level of participating physicians and educational background ( Rho=0.07), professional title ( Rho=0.13), age ( r=0.20), and working time of ophthalmofundus disease specialty ( r=0.26). Conclusions:Relying on the three-level online telemedicine training, it can improve the ability of ophthalmologists in Xinjiang region to diagnose fundus diseases. The preliminary telemedicine education model has demonstrated potential for feasibility and effectiveness in remote areas with inadequate medical resources.

Objective To analyse the clinical and pathological characteristics of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) with adrenal myelolipoma (AML),and to improve the awareness of CAH.Methods The P450c17a gene in a pedigree with CAH and the clinical and pathological characteristics of three sisters of the pedigree with CAH and adrenal myelolipoma were studied;and the pertinent literatures reported abroad were analyzed and summarized.Results (1) A heterozygous point mutation 1178 base A to T in exon 6,and a heterozygous deletion mutation 1 457-1 465 bases TCGACTCTT of exon 8 were detected in P450c17 (CYP17) gene of three sisters of the pedigree with CAH.(2) The clinical characteristics of three sisters were hypertension,hypokalemia,primary amenorrhea,and gonadal dysgenesis.Without regular treatment after the diagnosis of CAH,the three sisters experienced many years of elevated serum ACTH levels,and developed AML.Conclusion The long-term high ACTH level plays an important role in the development of AML,although the exact mechanism of CAH with adrenal myelolipoma remains still unclear.CAH patients require long-term regular treatment.

We herein report the case of a 50-year-old woman who presented with persistent fever and a large mass in her right breast. Haematology, liver function, and other blood test results were abnormal. Computed tomography and positron emission tomography indicated that the lesion had spread to multiple organs. Immunohistochemical staining confirmed that the patient had plasmablastic lymphoma, an invasive and rare form of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and an underlying infection by the Epstein-Barr virus. After three rounds of CHOPE chemotherapy, followed by hyperCVAD and ESHAP, the patient achieved rapid and complete remission. This case is unusual in that the patient presented with a large breast mass and her recovery was extremely rapid.

This study was aimed to investigate the effect of visceral pain and water metabolism on irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) model rats by moxibustion and its products. A total of 40 SD rats were randomly di-vided into the normal group, model group, moxibustion group, non-smoke moxibustion group, and moxa smoke group. IBS-D model was induced by colorectal distension with an inflatable balloon. The general condition of rats was ob-served. Visceral pain was assessed by abdominal withdrawal reflex (AWR) scores. The immunohistochemical method was used in the detection of claudin-1, AQP3, AQP8 and Na+/K+-ATPase protein expression. The results showed that compared with the normal group, the AWR scores, claudin-1, AQP3, AQP8 and Na+/K+-ATPase protein expres-sion in the colon were decreased in the model group (P < 0.01). The stool was loose, which was on hair around the anus. After moxibustion, non-smoke moxibustion and moxa smoke stimulation, the stool conditions of IBS-D model rats were improved. The AWR scores were decreased in different degrees (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Except Na+/K+-ATPase, expressions of claudin-1, AQP3 and AQP8 in colon were increased in different degrees (P < 0.05 or P <0.01). The comprehensive therapeutic effect showed that moxibustion was better than non-smoke moxibustion; and non-smoke moxibustion was better than moxa smoke stimulation. It was concluded that the combination of warm stimulation, optical radiation and moxa smoke induced best effect in improving visceral pain and water metabolism on IBS-D model rats. Among them, warm stimulation and optical radiation may play the main role.

To investigate effects of collagen matrices by covalent incorporation of heparin and loading with huangqi injection (HI) on anagenetic capillaries, we established the chick chorioallantois model. The collagen matrices by covalent incorporation of heparin and loading with HI were placed and then the eggs were continuously incubated for 3 days. The number of capillaries in the vicinity of samples, the hemoglobin content inside the samples, the dry weight and the macroscopic observation were evaluated. We found the heparinized matrices had comparable angiogenic effects. The number of capillaries, the hemoglobin content, the expression of CD34 increased remarkably (P < 0.01). So we concluded that HI might be considered as an alternative or addition agent to promote the acidification of capillaries.
