This article systematically reviews and verifies the name， origin， production area， quality evaluation， harvesting， processing and other aspects of Cynanchi Atrati Radix et Rhizoma（CARR） by consulting relevant ancient and modern literature， in order to provide a basis for the development and utilization of famous classical formulas containing this herb. Through textual research， Baiwei has been the official name for CARR， though it also bears alternative names such as Chuncao， Popo Zhenxianbao， Longdan Baiwei. The mainstream base is the roots and rhizomes of Cynanchum atratum. Historical records indicate primary producing areas include Shandong， Anhui， Jiangsu， Shaanxi and Shanxi. Since the late Ming dynasty， varieties from Juxian， Yishui and Rizhao in Shandong have been highly regarded as authentic， commonly known as eastern Baiwei. Since modern times， its quality has been summarized as fine， slender， and straight fibrous roots， pale yellow exterior， whiter interior， and dryness with easy breakability are considered superior. The harvesting time before the Song dynasty was on the third day of the third lunar month， but after the Song dynasty， harvesting was possible in both spring and autumn. The initial processing methods of CARR in ancient times included drying in the shade， removing Lu（the little rhizomes which are on tap of roots）， and removing mustaches， modern methods involve washing and sun-drying. During the Northern and Southern dynasties， processing methods included steaming. In the Song dynasty， drying and light stir-frying were predominant， while wine washing emerged in the Ming dynasty. Modern practices primarily involve using raw， stir-frying or honey processing. Regarding the medicinal properties of CARR， both ancient and modern texts agree it has a bitter and salty taste and is non-toxic. Records prior to the Qing dynasty predominantly describe its nature as extremely cold， while mainstream herbal texts after the Qing dynasty generally characterize it as cold. Before the Ming dynasty， there were no records of its meridian tropism. It was not until the Qing dynasty that it was recorded in the lung meridian. Modern records mainly refer to the stomach， liver， and kidney meridians. Throughout history， its main functions have been to clear heat， diuresis， nourish Yin， and replenish essence， primarily treating Yin deficiency and fever syndrome. Based on the research results， it is suggested that when developing famous classical formulas containing CARR， the dried roots and rhizomes of C. atratum can be selected as its medicinal source. If there are no specific processing requirements， raw products can be selected as medicine. If the processing requirements are specified， corresponding processed products can be selected as medicine according to the original formula requirements.

This article systematically analyzes the historical evolution of the name， origin， medicinal parts， producing area， harvesting and processing， nature， flavor and efficacy of Piperis Longi Fructus by referring to the materia medica， medical books， and prescription books of past dynasties， combined with the relevant modern literature， in order to provide a basis for the development and utilization of famous classical formulas containing this herb. According to the herbal textual research， the name of Piper longum first appeared in Nanfang Caomuzhuang， and it also has other aliases such as Biboli， Halou， and Hujiaohua. Historically， the origin of Piperis Longi Fructus has been P. longum of the Piperaceae family. In ancient times， both the fruit and root were used as medicine， and since the Republic of China， the fruit has been mainly used as medicine. The medicinal part is the dried， nearly ripe or ripe fruit spikes. Piperis Longi Fructus is native to India and has been introduced into China since the Tang dynasty. In the Ming dynasty， Bencao Pinhui Jingyao clearly stated that the genuine producing area was "Duanzhou"， present-day Zhaoqing in Guangdong province. Nowadays， it is planted in Guangdong， Guangxi， Hainan， Yunnan and other regions. Historically and currently， harvesting occurs in autumn. The ancient processing method uniformly involved removing the stems， soaking in the sourest vinegar overnight， baking， and scraping off the peels and grains with a knife until clean. In modern times， impurities are removed， and it is dried in the sun and crushed when used. The properties， functions and applications of P. longum are basically the same in ancient and modern times. It tastes pungent， is warm in nature， and non-toxic. It has the effects of warming the middle-jiao to dispel cold， lowering Qi and relieving pain， and is used for cold pain in the epigastrium and abdomen， vomiting， diarrhea， chest pain， headache， and toothache. Based on the research results， it is recommended that when developing famous classical formulas containing Piperis Longi Fructus， the dried nearly ripe or ripe fruit spikes of P. longum should be used. If there are no clear processing requirements， it is recommended to use the raw products for medicinal use， and the specific processing methods can refer to the relevant requirements under Piperis Longi Fructus in the 2025 edition of the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China. If processing requirements such as soaking in vinegar and peeling are clearly specified， it is recommended to follow the ancient methods.

As one of the common chronic bacterial infections, Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is a key pathogenic factor of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. In the formation of gastric ulcer, Hp virulence factors directly damage the gastric mucosal barrier, induce the local inflammation and immune response, interfere with the regulation of gastric acid secretion, and ultimately destroy the mucosal stability. In the occurrence of gastric cancer, Hp-driven chronic inflammation is the basis of inflammation-cancer transformation, and it induces the genomic instability and epigenetic changes by interfering with key signaling pathways in host cells, thereby promoting malignant transformation. This paper systematically reviews the related mechanisms of Hp-induced gastric ulcer and gastric cancer in recent years, holding great significance for the development of new intervention strategies and the precise prevention and treatment of gastric cancer.

Objective To evaluate the effect of target oriented infusion guided by stroke volume variation(SVV)in elderly lumbar surgery.Method From January to December 2023,80 elderly patients undergoing elective general anesthesia for prone lumbar surgery were divided into two groups by random number table method:SVV guidance target-oriented infusion group(SVV group)and conventional infusion group(conventional group),with 40 cases in each group.The amount of infusion,blood loss,urine volume and use of vasoactive drugs in the two groups were recorded.MAP,HR,blood lactate concentration(Lac),base residual value(BE),and PaO2 were recorded at the time of entry(T1),before cuticle(T2),1 hour after prone position(T3),and after surgery(T4).Pulmonary ultrasound examinations were performed at 4,8,12 and 24 hours after surgery,and B-line scores were calculated,as well as the incidence of cardiac insufficiency,nausea,vomiting,delirium and hospital stay at 24 hours after surgery.Result Compared with normal group,in group SVV,intraoperative infusion volume[(1123+532)ml],vascular active drug utilization rate(15.0％),postoperative each point B line score[(1.55±1.32),(1.22±0.94),(1.01±0.93),(1.07±0.90)]were reduced(P＜0.05).HR at T2～T4[(67±8,71±11,73±12)times/min]、PaO2 at T3,T4[(438±41,423±44)mmHg]were increased,Lac and BE at T2～T4 were(0.3±0.5,1.4±0.5,1.4±0.3)mmol/L.(0.3±0.6,0.3±1.0,0.3±1.1)was decreased(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences between the two groups in cardiac dysfunction,nausea,vomiting,delirium and hospital stay after a 24-hour postoperative period(P＞0.05).Conclusion SVV guided target oriented infusion in elderly lumbar surgery is beneficial to circulation stability and tissue perfusion,and reduces the production of lung water.

Objective To explore the application efficacy of refined management on antimicrobial agents in a chest specialty hospital.Methods Multiple measures were implemented through perfecting management systems and processes,as well as conducting knowledge training,such as multi-dimensional specialized prescription reviewing,optimizing information systems,and implementing grid-based management of clinical pharmacist.A refined manage-ment mode for antimicrobial agents in a chest specialty hospital has been established.Antimicrobial management in-dicators for the whole hospital and each clinical specialty in 2023(before management)and 2024(after manage-ment)were analyzed.Results Compared with 2023,antimicrobial use rate among hospitalized patients in 2024 de-creased from 47.48％to 45.92％,and antimicrobial use density(AUD)decreased from 46.28 defined daily doses(DDDs)/(100 person·day)to 39.73 DDDs/(100 person·day).The ratio of antimicrobial cost to total drug cost decreased from 12.71％to 9.51％,and the per capita cost of antimicrobial use decreased from 1 344.18 Yuan to 975.52 Yuan.The use rate of prophylactic antimicrobial agents for class Ⅰ incision surgery increased from 84.48％to 89.52％,and the rationality rate increased from 69.25％to 94.53％.The management indicators of each clinical specialty improved significantly.Conclusion Through adopting a series of refined management measures,antimi-crobial management modes that are suitable for the actual situation of the hospital has been constructed,and obvious efficacy was achieved.Clinical application of antimicrobial agents is more standardized and rational.
