ObjectiveTo analyze the adverse reactions associated with the clinical use of Banxia （Rhizoma Pinelliae）- Wutou （Aconitum） in the same formula， with the aim of providing a reference for the safety of their clinical application. MethodsLiterature on the clinical application of antagonistic herbs "Banxia-Wutou" used in the same formula， published from January 1st， 2014， to June 30th， 2023， was retrieved from databases including CNKI， VIP， Wanfang， SinoMed， PubMed， Cochrane Library， and Embase. A database was established， and information related to adverse reactions was extracted， including descriptions， classifications， specific manifestations， management and outcomes， patients' primary diseases （western medicine diseases and traditional Chinese medicine diagnoses and syndromes）， and medication information （dosage， ratio， administration routes， and dosage forms）. ResultsA total of 79 researches simultaneously used antagonistic herbs Banxia-Wutou in the same formula and reported associated advers reactions. Gastrointestinal adverse reactions were the most common， with 8 studies reporting management of adverse reactions and 3 studies reporting improvement with no intervention. Among the 11 researches， the adverse reaction relieved to extant， while other 69 researches didn't report the managment of adverse reaction and its prognosis. For the primary disease in western medicine system， chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） were most common， while gastric pain was the most common symptom in traditional Chinese medicine with spleen and kidney deficiency and spleen stomach cold deficiency being the most frequent syndromes. The most common Banxia dosage was 10 g， while for the Wutou， Fuzi （Radix Aconiti Lateralis Praeparata） was predominant with the highest dose at 15 g. The most frequent herbal combination was Banxia-fuzi， with a 1∶1 ratio. The main administration route was oral， and the primary dosage form was decoction. ConclusionGastrointestinal adverse reactions are the most common in the clinical use of Banxia-Wutou antagonistic herb combinations. Research on the safety of "Banxia-Wutou" combinations should focus on respiratory system diseases and spleen-stomach related conditions.

Metastasis is the leading cause of death from cutaneous melanoma. Identifying metastasis-related targets and developing corresponding therapeutic strategies are major areas of focus. While functional genomics strategies provide powerful tools for target discovery, investigations at the protein level can directly decode the bioactive epitopes on functional proteins. Aptamers present a promising avenue as they can explore membrane proteomes and have the potential to interfere with cell function. Herein, we developed a target and epitope discovery platform, termed functional aptamer evolution-enabled target identification (FAETI), by integrating affinity aptamer acquisition with phenotype screening and target protein identification. Utilizing the aptamer XH3C, which was screened for its migration-inhibitory function, we identified the Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycan 4 (CSPG4), as a potential target involved in melanoma migration. Further evidence demonstrated that XH3C induces cytoskeletal rearrangement by blocking the interaction between the bioactive epitope of CSPG4 and integrin α4. Taken together, our study demonstrates the robustness of aptamer-based molecular tools for target and epitope discovery. Additionally, XH3C is an affinity and functional molecule that selectively binds to a unique epitope on CSPG4, enabling the development of innovative therapeutic strategies.

Enamel demineralization, the formation of white spot lesions, is a common issue in clinical orthodontic treatment. The appearance of white spot lesions not only affects the texture and health of dental hard tissues but also impacts the health and aesthetics of teeth after orthodontic treatment. The prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of white spot lesions that occur throughout the orthodontic treatment process involve multiple dental specialties. This expert consensus will focus on providing guiding opinions on the management and prevention of white spot lesions during orthodontic treatment, advocating for proactive prevention, early detection, timely treatment, scientific follow-up, and multidisciplinary management of white spot lesions throughout the orthodontic process, thereby maintaining the dental health of patients during orthodontic treatment.

Objective:To explore the protective effect of labor analgesia on pelvic floor muscle function of primipara after vaginal delivery.Methods:A total of 140 cases of primipara with vaginal delivery admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from March to August 2022 were selected retrospectively, and they were divided into control group (routine delivery) and observation group (painless delivery) according to the intention of delivery, each group with 70 cases. Labor pain, pelvic floor muscle function score and pelvic floor muscle status at 6 weeks postpartum, Female Sexual Function Scale (FSFI) score at 3 months postpartum and reported postpartum symptoms were compared between the two groups.Results:The scores of Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at immediately after gastric antral empting, after drinking carbohydrates (5, 30, 60, 120 min) and at full opening of uterine orifice in the observation group were lower than those in control group, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). At 6 weeks postpartum, the maximum muscle voltage of pelvic floor muscle and the average muscle voltage of continuous contraction of pelvic floor muscle for 60 s in the observation group were higher than those in control group: (20.97 ± 2.64) μV vs. (17.31 ± 2.48) μV, (17.33 ± 3.01) μV vs. (13.42 ± 2.77) μV; the mobility of bladder neck and the hiatus area of levator anal muscle in resting state in the observation group were lower than those in the control group: (27.15 ± 3.55) mm vs. (31.05 ± 4.75) mm, (9.97 ± 2.12)cm 2 vs. (11.57 ± 2.84) cm 2, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). At 6 weeks postpartum, the scores of static pre-stage, static post-stage, type Ⅰ muscle fiber, type Ⅱ muscle fiber and total scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group: (67.21 ± 12.54) scores vs. (54.17 ± 10.84) scores, (69.12 ± 14.11) scores vs. (56.47 ± 11.24) scores, (63.54 ± 11.45) scores vs. (50.97 ± 10.74) scores, (57.15 ± 8.15) scores vs. (49.76 ± 6.44) scores, (64.25 ± 12.14) scores vs. (57.84 ± 20.57) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). At 6 weeks postpartum, the scores of FSFI in the observation group were higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). The rate of urine leakage, fever and mattress sweat reported in the observation group were lower than those in the control group: 22.86%(16/70) vs. 40.00%(28/70), 15.71%(11/70) vs. 30.00%(21/70), 30.00%(21/70) vs. 47.14%(33/70), there were statistical differences ( χ2 = 4.77, 4.05, 4.34, P<0.05).

Objective:To analyze the ultrasonographic measurements of inferior vena cava (IVC) and abdominal aorta in healthy full-term neonates throughout the early postnatal period.Methods:Prospective observational study was conducted. A total of 132 healthy full-term neonates, who were born at the Kunshan First People′s Hospital between May 1 st and August 30 th, 2023, were enrolled as the study subjects. Two-dimensional and M-mode ultrasonography were used to measure the maximum and minimum diameters of the IVC and abdominal aorta in the early postnatal period. The IVC collapsibility index, the ratio of maximum IVC diameter to abdominal aorta diameter, and the ratio of minimum IVC diameter to abdominal aorta diameter were calculated. These neonates were stratified by gender, birth mode, gestational age and birth weight (<3 000 or ≥3 000 g), and independent sample t-test or Kruskal-Wallis H test was used to compare the ultrasonography measurements by different groups. Results:Among the 132 neonates, 81 were males, with a gestational age of (39.2±1.0) weeks, and a birth weight of (3 326±409) g. There were no significant statistical differences in the the maximum and minimum diameters of the IVC and abdominal aorta assessed by both two-dimensional and M-modes between the first and second days (all P>0.05). Additionally, no statistical differences were observed in the ultrasonographic measurements among neonates of different sexes, birth modes, and gestational ages (all P>0.05); but there were statistically differences between the group with birth weight of <3 000 g and the group with birth weight of ≥3 000 g (all P<0.05). There were no statistically differences in IVC collapsibility index, the ratio of the maximum diameter of IVC to the diameter of abdominal aorta, and the ratio of the minimum diameter of IVC to the diameter of abdominal aorta between the group with birth weight of <3 000 g and the group with birth weight of≥3 000 g (all P>0.05). Conclusions:The diameters of the IVC and abdominal aorta in healthy full-term neonates during the early postnatal period are correlated with birth weight. The IVC collapsibility index and the ratio of IVC diameter to abdominal aorta diameter are unrelated to birth weight and can be used to assess newborn blood volume or right cardiac preload.

ObjectiveBased on the nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor 2 （Nrf2）/heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1） signaling pathway， this paper explores the effect of Sinisan （SNS） on liver oxidative stress injury in cholestatic hepatitis rats and its mechanism. MethodThirty 6-week-old male SD rats were randomly divided into a control group， model group， low and high dose groups of SNS （2.5 and 5 g·kg^-1） and ursodeoxycholic acid group （UDCA， 63 mg·kg^-1）， with six rats in each group. Rats were administrated for seven consecutive days. On the 5th day， the control group was given olive oil of 10 mL·kg^-1， and the other groups were given alpha-naphthalene isothiocyanate （ANIT） of 80 mg·kg^-1. The serum biochemical indicator levels of cholestasis and the content of antioxidant factors in rat liver were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe the pathological changes in liver tissue. The relative mRNA and protein expressions of Nrf2， HO-1， and quinone oxidoreductase 1 （NQO1） in liver tissue were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot. ResultCompared with the control group， the model group showed a significant increase in the serum biochemical indicator levels of cholestasis and the content of antioxidant factors in liver tissue （P<0.01）. There were obvious pathological changes in the model group such as the disordered arrangement of hepatocytes， obvious congestion and necrosis in the portal area， infiltration of inflammatory cells， and destruction of the interlobular bile duct. The relative mRNA and protein expressions of Nrf2， HO-1， and NQO1 in liver tissue were significantly down-regulated in the model group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the groups of SNS showed a significant decrease in the serum biochemical indicator levels of cholestasis and the content of antioxidant factors in liver tissue （P<0.01）， and the pathological liver injury was obviously improved. The necrotic area was reduced， and the infiltration of inflammatory cells was decreased. In addition， there was a small amount of extravasated blood in the interlobular vein. The relative mRNA and protein expressions of Nrf2， HO-1， and NQO1 in liver tissue were significantly up-regulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionSNS can significantly improve liver injury in cholestatic hepatitis rats， and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of oxidative stress response mediated by the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

The clinical data of a patient with Klinefelter syndrome (KS) complicated by partial androgen insensitivity syndrome (PAIS) was retrospectively analyzed.The patient, a 2-month-and-22-day-old baby, was admitted to Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University due to abnormal external genitalia in October 2021.Upon birth, the patient exhibited abnormal external genitalia, manifested as clitoral hypertrophy.Hormonal examinations were consistent with those of peers, while chromosomal analysis revealed 47, XXY.Due to the severe undermasculinization, whole exome sequencing was conducted, indicating a heterozygous variant of the AR gene (c.1847G>A, p.Arg616His). The patient was diagnosed with PAIS, and her elder sister was diagnosed with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.For further treatment, a multidisciplinary comprehensive evaluation is needed.This is a rare case of KS combined with PAIS, suggesting the possibility of AR gene mutations in KS children with severe undermasculinization.
