Houpo Sanwutang, included in the Catalogue of Ancient Classical Prescriptions (Second Batch), was first recorded in the Synopsis of Golden Chamber written by ZHANG Zhongjing from the Eastern Han dynasty and was modified by successive generations of medical experts. A total of 37 pieces of effective data involving 37 ancient Chinese medical books were retrieved from different databases. Through literature mining, statistical analysis, and data processing, combined with modern articles, this study employed bibliometrics to investigate the historical origin, composition, decoction methods, clinical application, and other key information. The results showed that the medicinal origin of Houpo Sanwutang was clearly documented in classic books. Based on the conversion of the measurements from the Han Dynasty, it is recommended that 110.4 g Magnolia Officinalis Cortex, 55.2 g Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, and 72 g Aurantii Fructus Immaturus should be taken. Magnolia Officinalis Cortex and Aurantii Fructus Immaturus should be decocted with 2 400 mL water first, and 1 000 mL should be taken from the decocted liquid. Following this, Rhei Radix et Rhizoma should be added for further decoction, and then 600 mL should be taken from the decocted liquid. A single dose of administration is 200 mL, and the medication can be stopped when patients restore smooth bowel movement. Houpo Sanwutang has the effect of moving Qi, relieving stuffiness and fullness, removing food stagnation, and regulating bowels. It can be used in treating abdominal distending pain, guarding, constipation, and other diseases with the pathogenesis of stagnated heat and stagnated Qi in the stomach. The above results provide reference for the future development and research of Houpo Sanwutang.

AIM:To explore the expression and distribution of synaptic and extrasynaptic glutamate receptors under the action of amyloid β-protein 42 oligomers(Aβ42Os)in Alzheimer disease.METHODS:In vitro,primary neu-rons from neonatal mice were treated with different concentrations of Aβ42Os.In vivo,Aβ42Os were stereotaxically injected into the lateral ventricle of C57BL/6 mice.Western blot was used to detect the protein levels of metabotropic gultamate re-ceptor 5(mGluR5)and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor(NMDAR)subunits(NR2A,NR2B and NR1)in mouse primary neurons and mice.Immunofluorescence staining was performed to observe the distribution of mGluR5 and NMDAR.Addi-tionally,Western blot was employed to examine the expression of mGluR5 downstream phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(PKB/AKT)signaling pathway-related proteins,calcium signaling pathway-related proteins and synapse-related proteins in mouse hippocampal tissues.RESULTS:(1)High concentrations of Aβ42Os increased mGluR5 expression in mouse primary neurons,but reduced the expression of NR2A,NR2B and NR1(P<0.01).Treatment of pri-mary neurons with high concentration of Aβ42Os resulted in aggregation of mGluR5 on the membrane surface,and re-duced the expression of NR2A,NR2B and NR1 on the membrane surface.(2)High concentration of Aβ42Os increased the expression of synaptic mGluR5 in mouse hippocampal tissues(P<0.01),but reduced the expression of synaptic NR2A(P<0.05)and NR2B(P<0.01)and increased the expression of extrasynaptic NR2B(P<0.01).High concentration of Aβ42Os inhibited the expression of PI3K and the phosphorylation of AKT and extracellular signal-regulated kinase(ERK),and overactivated calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IIα(CaMKIIα).High concentration of Aβ42 decreased the expression of postsynaptic density protein 95,spinophilin,synaptophysin and microtubule-associated protein 2(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:(1)High concentrations of Aβ42Os increase mGluR5 expression and decrease NR2A,NR2B and NR1 expression in synapse,along with an increase in extrasynaptic NR2B.(2)High concentrations of Aβ42Os inhibit the PI3K/AKT and ERK signaling pathways,overactivated the CaMKIIα pathway,and destroyed the synaptic structures.

Objective:To explore the advantages of minimally invasive internal fixation assisted by an orthopedic robot in the treatment of tibial plateau fractures of Schatzker types Ⅱ and Ⅲ that can be indirectly reduced.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted of the 18 patients who had been treated for tibial plateau fractures of Schatzker types Ⅱ and Ⅲ at Department of Orthopaedics, The Fourth Hospital of Wuhan from December 2019 to December 2021. They were 12 males and 6 females with an age of (45.2±9.6) years. All fractures were closed. Of them, 6 were complicated with an avulsion fracture at the insertion point of the anterior cruciate ligament, 1 with tear of the medial collateral ligament, and 8 with tear of the lateral meniscus. All patients were treated with minimally invasive internal fixation using the "fence" screw technique after indirect reduction assisted by an orthopedic surgical robot. Those combined with avulsion fracture of the anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus tear underwent one-stage arthroscopic surgery, while those combined with tear of the medial collateral ligament underwent one-stage open repair. The fracture reduction was evaluated according to the Rasmussen radiological scoring system, and the knee joint function evaluated using the American Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) scoring system.Results:All the 18 patients were fully followed up for (10.6±1.9) months. The X-ray films immediately after surgery showed good fracture reduction. The fractures healed after (11.3±1.2) weeks. At 6 months after surgery, the Rasmussen knee score was (16.8±1.0) points, giving 5 excellent and 13 good cases; the HSS score was (93.2±3.0) points, giving 17 excellent and 1 good cases. By the last follow-up, no serious complications occurred, such as common peroneal nerve injury, popliteal vascular injury, postoperative infection, or internal fixation failure.Conclusion:Since minimally invasive internal fixation assisted by an orthopedic robot can lead to fine clinical efficacy for tibial plateau fractures of Schatzker types Ⅱ and Ⅲ, this technique can be widely applied in clinical practice.

Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common malignancy of the liver and poses serious health burdens on China and the whole world. However, most patients with hepatocellular carcinoma are already in the advanced stage at the time of diagnosis, with fewer opportunities for surgery and limited treatment options. In recent years, the advances in molecular targeted therapies have brought new hope for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Among these therapies, lenvatinib is the second first-line drug after sorafenib approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, and it has attracted widespread attention for its powerful anti-tumor properties. However, the efficacy of lenvatinib is severely limited by its drug resistance. This article reviews the research advances in the molecular mechanisms of lenvatinib resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma and discusses possible ways to improve the efficacy of lenvatinib, so as to improve its efficacy.

{L-End}Objective To understand the influence of job burnout and anxiety symptoms on work ability of biosafety laboratory (BSL) workers in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. {L-End}Methods A total of 5 808 BSL workers in Xinjiang Region were selected as the research subjects using cluster sampling method. The Job Burnout Questionnaire, Anxiety Self-rating Scale and Work Ability Index Questionnaire were used to evaluate their job burnout, anxiety symptoms and work ability. The mediation effect of anxiety symptoms on the relationship between job burnout and work ability was tested by stepwise regression analysis. {L-End}Results The detection rate of job burnout, anxiety symptoms and poor working ability was 83.1% (4 829/5 808), 37.2% (2 160/5 808) and 5.8% (339/5 808), respectively. There was a positive correlation between job burnout and anxiety symptoms score in BSL workers [correlation coefficient (r) was 0.48, P<0.01]. The score of job burnout and anxiety symptoms was negatively correlated with the work ability score (r were -0.58, -0.51, both P<0.01). The results of mediation effect analysis show that the total effect of job burnout on work ability was -0.31, with the direct effect of -0.15. The mediation effect of anxiety symptoms on the relationship between job burnout and work ability was -0.16, accounting for 51.6% of the total effect. {L-End}Conclusion The detection rates of job burnout and anxiety symptoms among BSL workers in Xinjiang Region are relatively high. Anxiety symptoms show a mediate effect on the relationship between job burnout and work ability. The work ability of BSL workers can be improved by improving job burnout and anxiety symptoms.

OBJECTIVES:
To evaluate the feasibility and safety of bipolar-plasmakinetic transurethral enucleation and resection of the prostate (B-TUERP) in day surgery.
METHODS:
From January 2021 to August 2022, 34 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) underwent B-TUERP in day surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. Patients completed the screening and anesthesia evaluation before admission and received the standard surgery which implements "anatomical enucleation of the prostate" and "absolute bleeding control" on the same day of admission, and by the same doctor. Bladder irrigation was stopped, catheter was removed and the discharge evaluation was performed on the first day after operation. The baseline data, perioperative conditions, time of recovery, treatment outcomes, hospitalization costs, and postoperative complications were analyzed.
RESULTS:
All operations were successfully conducted. The average age of the patients was (62.2±7.8) years, average prostate volume was (50.2±29.3) mL. The average operation time was (36.5±19.1) min, the average hemoglobin and blood sodium were decreased by (16.2±7.1) g/L and (2.2±2.0) mmol/L, respectively. The average postoperative length of hospital stay, and total length of hospital stay were (17.7±2.2) and (20.8±2.1) h, respectively, and the average hospitalization cost was (13 558±2320) CNY. All patients were discharged on the day after surgery except for one patient who was transferred to a general ward. Three patients received indwelling catheterization after catheter removal. The 3-month follow-up results showed a substantial improvement in the International Prostate Symptom Score, quality of life score and maximum urinary flow rate (all P<0.01). Three patients experienced temporary urinary incontinence, 1 patient experienced urinary tract infection, 4 patients were diagnosed with urethral stricture and 2 patients experienced bladder neck contracture. No complications above Clavien grade Ⅱ occurred.
CONCLUSIONS
The preliminary results showed that B-TUERP ambulatory surgery is a safe, feasible, economical and effective treatment for appropriately selected patients with BPH.

Objective:The aim of our study is to develop an LC-MS/MS method using isotope internal standard for the determination of vancomycin in human blood serum and to validate its clinical value.Method:We conducted a methodological evaluation study using serum samples from 221 hospitalized patients (142 males and 79 females; mean age (59.31±15.32) years) who received treatments of vancomycin at the Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital of Zhejiang University between March 2021 and June 2022. In addition, thirty clinical residual serum samples from healthy individuals (15 males and 15 females; mean age (35.65±9.86) years) undergoing physical examination were used for methodological evaluation. The method was established using AB Sciex Triple Quad 4500 MD liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometer and chromatographic separation was carried out using a Phenyl-Hexyl column with gradient elution. The mobile phase was composed of 0.1% formic acid in water and methanol; the column temperature was 40℃; Vancomycin-[d12] TFA salt was used as the internal standard (IS). The sensitivity, specificity, linearity, accuracy, imprecision, matrix effect, and carry-over of the method were evaluated.Results:The detection limit of vancomycin was 0.2 mg/L and the lowest limit of quantification was 0.5 mg/L. It showed good linearity ( R2=0.998 4) in the 1 to 50 mg/L concentration range. Accuracy (recovery rate 87.45%-112.69%), intra-day and inter-day imprecision ( CV 4.91%-7.69%), internal standard standardized matrix factor (90.22%-104.29%). Carryover pollution was negligible. Of the 221 patients, the mean trough concentrations of vancomycin in serum was (13.15±8.56) mg/L. Conclusion:The LC-MS/MS method for the detection of serum vancomycin established in our laboratory meets the requirements of the reference method, and can be used for the monitoring of clinical therapeutic drugs.
