This article systematically reviews and examines the historical evolution of Bambusae Succus as a medicinal material， covering aspects such as nomenclature， origin， geographical distribution， harvesting and processing methods， quality assessment， therapeutic effects and indications， by consulting ancient herbal texts， medical compendia， and modern literature. The aim is to provide a reference for the development and utilization of famous classical formulas containing this herb. Research indicated that Bambusae Succus was first documented in the Shennong Bencaojing during the Han dynasty， with Zhuli being the standard name used throughout history， alongside aliases like Zhuzhi， Zhuyou and Huoquan. Historically， the primary source of Bambusae Succus has been Phyllostachys nigra var. henonis（Danzhu）， although other species such as Pleioblastus amarus and Bambusa emeiensis have also been used medicinally. Ancient records predominantly noted its origin in Yizhou（present-day Chengdu and surrounding areas in Sichuan） and the Wuling region（between present-day Hunan， Guangdong， Guangxi and Jiangxi provinces）， while contemporary sources are mainly from regions south of the Yangtze River and southwestern China. Traditionally， Bambusae Succus was harvested from bamboo that had grown for exactly one year， today， it can be collected year-round without strict age requirements. Ancient preparation methods included direct fire roasting or dry distillation， whereas modern industrial production employs dry distillation， reflux extraction， and percolation. In terms of quality evaluation， ancient texts considered a sweet taste to be superior， while today， clarity and transparency are prioritized. Historically， Bambusae Succus was characterized as sweet and cold nature， targeting the lung and stomach meridians， with uses evolving from clearing heat and resolving phlegm to nourishing Yin， moistening dryness， and relaxing tendons and unblocking meridians. Modern descriptions classify it as sweet， bitter， and cold in nature， affecting the heart， liver， and lung meridians， with functions including clearing heat， resolving phlegm， and facilitating orifices. It is indicated for conditions such as stroke with phlegm confusion， lung heat with phlegm congestion， convulsions， epilepsy， excessive phlegm in febrile diseases， high fever with thirst， irritability during pregnancy， and tetanus， with more clearly defined applications. Based on the results of the research， it is recommended that when developing and utilizing famous classical formulas containing Bambusae Succus， the one-year-old Phyllostachys nigra var. Henonis， which has been highly praised throughout history， should be selected as the source material. Industrial production should adopt the dry distillation method. Furthermore， in-depth research should be conducted on the modern technological characterization of the traditional quality control indicator of sweet taste， and reasonable modern quality control standards should be established.

ObjectiveTo analyze the effects of new integration processing method in producing area and traditional method on the composition and pharmacological action of Polygoni Multiflori Radix Praeparata（PMRP）， and to illustrate the advantages of toxicity reducing and efficacy enhancing of the decoction pieces prepared by the new method. MethodFresh Polygoni Multiflori Radix（PMR） was taken from Dao-di producing area， and was processed by new integration processing method in producing area（steaming with black bean juice under pressure of 0.1 MPa and temperature at 120 ℃ for 10.5 h） and traditional method（steaming with black bean juice under water for 36 h）， respectively. Samples were collected during the processing process of the two methods， For new method， the samples were collected at 0.5， 3， 5.5， 8， 10.5 h， separately. For traditional method， the samples were collected every 4 h. High performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） was used to establish fingerprint and identify common peaks， the content of polysaccharides was determined by anthrone-sulfuric acid colorimetry at 627 nm， and the contents of anthraquinones and stilbene glycosides in different processed products were determined according to the methods under the item of determination of PMR and PMRP in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. In pharmacological experiments， 90 SD rats were randomly divided into 9 groups with 10 in each group（half of male and half of female）， including the blank group， and raw products， 24 h processed products under atmospheric pressure， 30 h processed products under atmospheric pressure， 8 h processed products under high pressure groups with low and high dosages（4.125， 16.5 g·kg^-1）. Rats were given the drug by gavage for 29 d with once a day， blood was collected from the abdominal aorta after the last administration， and the serum was isolated， the body mass and liver mass of rats were weighed and the organ index was calculated. The pathological change of liver tissue was observed by hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining， and biochemical methods were used to detect the contents of aspartate aminotransferase（AST）， alanine aminotransferase（ALT）， alkaline phosphatase（ALP）， γ-glutamyltransferase（GGT）， lactic dehydrogenase（LDH） in serum which used as liver function indicators and the levels of superoxide dismutase（SOD）， malondialdehyde（MDA）， glutathione peroxidase（GSH-Px） in brain tissues which used as oxidation indicators. ResultA total of 14 common peaks were identified in the fingerprint of PMR， PMRP prepared by new method and traditional method， and three of the peaks were designated as stilbene glycoside， emodin and emodin methyl ether， respectively. The characteristic peak areas of each processed products changed significantly from 0 min to 25 min， indicating that different processing methods had an effect on the contents of components with high polarity in PMRP， and the trend of the changes of the two methods was similar， with the higher degree of change in the new method. The determination results showed that compared with the traditional method， the content of polysaccharide（a kind of beneficial component in PMRP obtained by the new method） significantly increased， while the contents of stilbene glycoside and bound anthraquinone（liver-damaging ingredients） significantly decreased. The pharmacological results showed that compared with the blank group， AST and LDH levels of male rats in the low and high dose groups of 24 h processed products under atmospheric pressure and AST level of male rats in the low and high dose groups of 8 h processed products under high pressure were significantly reduced（P<0.05， P<0.01）， while compared with the raw product groups with the same dose， AST and LDH levels of male rats in the low dose group of 30 h processed products under atmospheric pressure were significantly reduced（P<0.05， P<0.01）， the AST levels of male rats in the low and high dose groups of 8 h processed products under high pressure were significantly decreased（P<0.01）， and there was no statistical significance in the differences of biochemical indexes of female rats in each administration group as compared with those of the blank group. ConclusionThe new integration processing method in producing area of PMRP can reach the quality of relevant regulations in 8 h. The processed products obtained by this method have more advantages than the traditional method in terms of toxicity reducing and efficacy enhancing， and energy saving to avoid the loss of ingredients， which can provide ideas for the production of high-quality decoction pieces of PMRP， and the integration processing method in producing area of other roots and rhizomes of traditional Chinese medicines.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of routine exposure versus neuromonitoring of the external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) in thyroid cancer surgery. Methods:The clinical data of 500 patients who underwent open thyroid cancer surgery in the Department of Breast and Thyroid Surgery, People's Hospital of Quzhou from July 2017 to June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into a monitoring group ( n = 300) and an unmonitored group (control group) ( n = 200) according to whether neuromonitoring was performed during surgery. In the control group, the EBSLN was routinely exposed during the surgery for naked observation. In the monitoring group, the EBSLN was monitored. The Voice Handicap Index score, vocal cord function, and serum levels of parathyroid hormone and calcium ion were compared between the two groups before and after surgery. All patients were followed up for 1 year to observe injury to the EBSLN, parathyroid gland injury, and hypocalcemia. Results:In the monitoring group, operative time (112.32 ± 10.42) minutes, intraoperative blood loss (10.58 ± 5.04) mL, time to extubation (2.07 ± 0.54) days, postoperative drainage flow (10.55 ± 3.58) mL, and postoperative hospital stay (3.03 ± 1.03) days were significantly shorter and less compared with the control group ( t = 18.68, 15.09, 15.24, 32.98, 27.37, all P < 0.001). Compared with before surgery, normalized noise energy, amplitude perturbation, fundamental frequency perturbation, and fundamental frequency value in each group were significantly decreased after surgery, harmonic to noise ratio and the Voice Handicap Index were significantly increased after surgery. These indices were more obviously improved in the monitoring group compared with the control group ( t = 43.31, 27.10, 46.45, 37.11, 8.97, all P < 0.001). Compared with before surgery, serum levels of parathyroid hormone and calcium ion in each group were significantly decreased after surgery. After surgery, serum levels of parathyroid hormone and calcium ion in the control group were significantly lower than those in the monitoring group ( t = 41.14, 5.99, both P < 0.001). The incidence of complications in the monitoring group [4 cases of hypocalcemia (1.33%), 0 cases of parathyroid injury (0.00%), 8 cases of injury to the EBSLN] was significantly lower than that in the control group ( χ2 = 73.41, 74.17, 76.29, all P < 0.001). Conclusion:Neuromonitoring of the EBSLN during open thyroid cancer surgery can effectively improve patient voice and vocal cord function, reduce the rate of injury to the EBSLN, and has a clinical application value.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the research status and hotspots of wine processing of Chinese medicine， and to provide reference for its related research. METHODS Related literature about wine processing research in Chinese medicine was retrieved from CNKI and Web of Science （WOS）. VOSviewer 1.6.18 and CiteSpace 6.1.1R2 software were used to visualize the core authors， research institutions， keywords， and other contents. RESULTS A total of 962 Chinese literature and 57 English literature were included in the study. In total， the trend in the amount of Chinese and English literature was on the rise during 2000-2022. The analysis of the authors showed that ZHANG Xuelan and CAI Baochang had the most publications in Chinese and English literature. Research institutions were mainly Chinese medicine universities， and Chengdu University of Chinese Medicine and Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine were the research institutions with the largest number of Chinese and English literature published. The analysis of keywords in Chinese and English literature showed that the wine-processing research of Chinese medicine mainly focused on wine-processed varieties， chemical constituents， wine-processed process， and quality standards. Response surface method， chroma value， metabolomics， and action mechanism had become current research hotspots. CONCLUSIONS The related research of wine processing for Chinese medicine is still in the development period. In the future， the response surface method to optimize the wine-processed process and the combination of metabolomics with related technologies of other omics to reveal the pharmacodynamic mechanism of wine processing for Chinese medicine is still the future development trend. In the future， cooperation between institutions should be further strengthened， and research on the use of excipients and alcohol should be strengthened. Modern analytical methods should be utilized to enhance the efficiency of wine processing for Chinese medicine， thereby promoting the modernization and internationalization of wine processing for Chinese medicine.

ObjectiveBy exploring the volatile components， polysaccharide composition and changes in the contents of five carbohydrate components of Polygonatum cyrtonema rhizoma before and after processing， and then the effect of yellow rice wine on the odour formation of P. cyrtonema rhizoma was investigated. MethodThe volatile components of P. cyrtonema rhizoma before and after processing were detected by headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（HS-GC-MS）， and sample data were subjected to principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA） using SIMCA 14.1， then the differences between these components of P. cyrtonema rhizoma before and after processing were screened according to the principle of variable importance in the projection（VIP） value>1. Crude carbohydrate components in raw and wine-processed P. cyrtonema rhizoma were subjected to oxime and silylation， the carbohydrate components were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（GC-MS/MS）， and the relative contents of various components were calculated by peak area normalization， then quantitative analysis of four carbohydrate components was also carried out. ResultA total of 23 volatile components were identified from the raw products and the wine-processed products， including 15 components in raw products and 20 components in wine-processed products. Among them， 2-methylbutyraldehyde and isovaleraldehyde had a sweet odor and their contents increased after processing， but the contents of hexanal and caproic acid decreased， new components such as 2-acetylfuran and 5-methylfuranal were produced after processing. PCA and OPLS-DA results showed that there were significant differences between raw products and the wine-processed products， a total of 13 differential compounds were screened out， of which 7 showed an upward trend in relative content and 6 showed a downward trend. A total of 7 carbohydrate components， including 5 monosaccharides and 2 disaccharides， were identified in raw products and the wine-processed products. The results of determination showed that the contents of fructose， glucose， mannose and sucrose in P. cyrtonema rhizoma increased after wine-processing， and their increases were 4.54， 1.51， 2.93， 3.66 times， respectively. ConclusionAfter processing， the increase of aromatic flavor of P. cyrtonema rhizoma may be related to the increase of the contents of aldehydes such as 2-methylbutyraldehyde and isovaleraldehyde， while the decrease of raw flavor may be related to the decrease of the contents of volatile components such as hexanal and hexanoic acid， the increase of sweet flavor may be related to the increase of the contents of monosaccharides and oligosaccharides such as fructose and sucrose.

OBJECTIVE To establish the fingerprints of Ligusticum sinense from different habitats ，screen differential components and determine their contents. METHODS Using Z-ligustilide as reference ，HPLC fingerprints of 12 batches of L. sinense were established by using Similarity Evaluation System of Chromatographic Fingerprints of TCM （2012 edition）；common peaks were identified and their similarities were evaluated. Cluster analysis （CA），principal component analysis （PCA）and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA）were performed to screen differential components with variable importance in the projection （VIP）＞1 as standard ；meanwhile，the contents of above differential components were determined by the same HPLC method. RESULTS There were 17 common peaks in the fingerprints of 12 batches of L. sinense ，and their similarities ranged 0.989-1.000. A total of 9 common peaks were identified ，i.e. chlorogenic acid （peak 1），ferulic acid （peak 2）， senkyunolide Ⅰ（peak 7），coniferyl ferulate （peak 9），E-ligustilide（peak 13），senkyunolide A （peak 14），Z-ligustilide（peak 17）. CA results showed that 12 batches of L. sinense were divided into 3 categories，S1-S5（Wuning）were clustered into one category，S6-S8（Ruichang）were clustered into one category ，S9-S12（De’an）were clustered into one category ；the VIP values of peaks 2，13，14 and 17（corresponding to ferulic acid ，E-ligustilide，senkyunolide A ，and Z-ligustilide respectively ）were all greater than 1，respectively. In S 1-S5，S6-S8 and S 9-S12 samples，the contents of ferulic acid were 0.488-0.533，0.603-0.658 and 0.415-0.433 mg/g，respectively；senkyunolide A were 1.184-1.295，1.450-1.588 and 1.307-1.377 mg/g，respectively；E-ligustilide were 0.118-0.125，0.130-0.135 and 0.223-0.229 mg/g，respectively；Z-ligustilide were 7.200-7.681，8.076-8.643 and 4.508-4.996 mg/g， respectively；the differences between two groups were statisti-cally significant （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Established ARS-11）；fingerprint is simple and accurate ，and can be used for overall quality evaluation of L. sinense from different habitats by combining with multivariate statistical analysis. Ferulic acid ， senkyunolide A ，Z-ligustilide and E-ligustilide may be the differential components that affect the quality of L. sinense from different habitats ，the contents of the first 3 components in L. sinense from Ruichang are the highest ，and the content of E-ligustilide in samples from De’an is the highest.

Objective To investigate the effect of acupuncture point injection and rehabilitation on the functional recovery of upper limbs and daily living ability of shoulder-hard syndrom (SHS) after cerebral hemorrhage. Methods A total of 96 patients SHS after cerebral hemorrhage were divided into the observation group (n=56) and the control group (n=40). Both groups recieved the routine treatment for cerebral hemorrhage and rehabilitation technique training. Besides, the control group was treated with intermediate frequency physiotherapy, and the observation group was treated with electroacupuncture and acupoint injection of Salvia miltiorrhiza and ligustrazine. After 1 months of treatment, the the upper limb movement function, daily living ability (ADL), shoulder joint pain, joint activity degree, and the degree of joint swelling were evaluated and compared. Results After treatment, the FMA (60.1 ± 6.4 vs. 41.8 ± 18.7, t=6.799), MBI (65.2 ± 3.5 vs. 50.6 ± 2.1, t=23.512) scores of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group. The VAS (2.7 ± 1.4 vs. 4.9 ± 1.3, t=7.817), edema volume (2.1 ± 2.1 cm3 vs. 2.1 ± 2.1 cm3, t=7.316) of the observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group ( P＜0.01). The anterior flexion (163.1 ± 6.7°vs. 56 ± 10.9°, t=59.516), extension (39.6 ± 5.8°vs. 23.2 ± 6.7°, t=12.799), abduction (168.1 ± 9.6°vs. 52.1 ± 8.9°, t=60.148), adduction (52.1 ± 3.6°vs. 29.8 ± 4.3°, t=27.580), external rotation (49.8 ± 7.6°vs. 23.2 ± 5.2°, t=19.151), internal rotation (107.0 ± 8.5°vs. 60.2 ± 6.1°, t=29.758) of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P＜0.01). The total effective rate of the observation group was 91.1% (52/56) and the control group was 70% (28/40), and the difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (χ2=7.209, P＜0.01). Conclusions Acupuncture combined with acupoint injection and rehabilitation technology can relieve pain, eliminate edema and improve motor function and daily living ability of SHS patients after intracerebral hemorrhage.

Objective To study the practical clinical value of laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) combined with other laparoscopic surgery. Methods 206 patients treated by LC combined with other laparoscopic surgery were analysed retrospectively. Results Among the 206 cases of LC combined with other laparoscopic surgery, LC was combined with choledochal exploration in 64 patients, with appendectomy in 29 patients, with fenestration of hepatic cyst in 38 patients, with other hepatic operations in 13 patients, with unroofing of kidney cyst in 15 patients, with release of abdominal adhesions in 31 patients, and with other operative procedures in 16 patients. Laparoscopic operations were successful in 204 patients, and 2 patients were converted to laparotomy. Postoperative bile fistula occurred in 2 patients; 1 healed with conservative therapy, and 1 healed after reoperation. Conclusions Laparoscopic cholecystectomy combined with other laparoscopic surgery can adequately present the advantages of microsurgery by safe, effective and economical management of various abdominal diseases.

The blood supply and source about the sciatic nerve in 20 fetuses were studied. We observed the number and diameter of the branches of blood vessels and the size, characteristic distribution of the network formed from them, microscopically and by naked eye. A combined angiography was used. After injection of Chinese ink the epineuria were peeled. About the vascular distribution of the nerve tract we perceived that:1. The blood supply of the sciatic nerve was from two vascular systems——external and internal (separated by the perineurium); 2. The external part showed segmental of multiple origination, mainly from the nutrition arteries, and some arterioles directly from the sciatic arteries. The number, diameter, branching type of the vessels, size and shape of the anastomosing network were also observed; 3. The internal part consisted of microarteries and capillaries, which form an anastomosing network. The diameter of the vessels, shape and size of the network were measured.In view of the above-mentioned data, when a part of the sciatic nerve should be isolated, the clinical physicians ought to consider the blood supply in segmental character, so that the part of nerve taken off must not be too long to avoid injuring the nutritional vessels.
