A method for simultaneous determination of 21 kinds of Aconitum alkaloids(ATS)in biological specimens and infused liquor using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS/MS)was developed.The biological samples were pretreated with methanol-acetonitrile(1∶2,V/V)for protein precipitation,while infused liquors were diluted 100-fold with acetonitrile,followed by centrifugation,and filtration by a 0.22-μm membrane.Chromatographic separation was carried out on an EC-C18 column using gradient elution with the mixture of 10 mmol/L ammonium acetate and 0.2%formic acid as mobile phase A and acetonitrile as mobile phase B.With this method,all the analytes were separated within 9.5 min.The samples were detected in positive ESI mode with dynamic multiple reaction monitoring(MRM)and quantified via external standard calibration.The results showed that the concentrations of the analytes in the range of 2-1000 ng/mL had excellent linearity(R2>0.9992)with the peak area.The developed method was successfully used for detection of 21 kinds of aconitum alkaloids,with limits of detection of 0.5-2 ng/mL,quantification limits of 2-6 ng/mL,intra/inter-day precision≤6.0%,spiked recoveries of 89.4%-100.9%,extraction recoveries of 74.2%-104.4%,and matrix effects ranging from-11.1%to 9.2%in blood/urine.The method was applied to detection of 12 samples from 4 fatal aconite poisoning cases,and all 21 kinds of ATS with total alkaloid concentrations of 0.04-4.18 μg/mL in blood and 154.96-422.83 μg/mL in medicinal liquors were detected.Tissue distribution revealed that the order of concentrations from highest to lowest is as follows:urine(157.22 μg/mL)>gastric contents(51.37 μg/mL)>kidney(21.6 μg/g)>whole blood(4.18 μg/mL)>liver(0.03 μg/g).This method showed many advantages such as simple pretreatment,low detection limits,accurate quantification,broad analyte coverage,and superior anti-interference capability in complex matrices,proving ideal for forensic and toxicological analysis of aconitum alkaloids.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum levels of long non-coding RNA(Ln-cRNA)-prostate androgen regulated transcript 1(PART1),LncRNA-nucleolar ribonucleic acid host gene 14(SNHG14)and disease stage,cognitive impairment and motor function in patients with Parkinson's disease(PD).Methods A total of 100 PD patients(PD group)who admitted to the Department of Neurology in the hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 and 100 healthy subjects(control group)who underwent the physical examination during the same period of time were selected.According to Hoehn-Yahr staging,PD pa-tients were divided into early stage group(grade 1.0-2.5,20 cases),middle stage group(grade 3.0,48 ca-ses)and late stage group(grade 4.0-5.0,32 cases).According to the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(Mo-CA)score,the patients were divided into normal cognitive group(MoCA score≥26 points,33 cases),PD-mild cognitive impairment group(MoCA score 21-＜26 points,46 cases)and PD dementia group(MoCA score＜21 points,21 cases).According to the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale(UPDRS)-Ⅲ score,the pa-tients were divided into mild dyskinesia group(0-15 points,29 cases),moderate dyskinesia group(＞15-40 points,46 cases)and severe dyskinesia group(＞40-56 points,25 cases).Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect serum LncRNA-PART1 and LncRNA-SNHG14 levels.Spearman method was used to analyze the correlation between serum LncRNA-PART1,LncRNA-SNHG14 levels and Hoehn-Yahr staging,MoCA score and UPDRS-Ⅲ score in PD patients.Results The level of serum LncRNA-PART1 in PD group was lower than that in control group(P＜0.05),and the level of LncRNA-SNHG14 was higher than that in control group(P＜0.05).The serum levels of LncRNA-PART1 in the middle stage group and late stage groups were lower than those in the early stage group(P＜0.05),and the levels of LncRNA-SNHG14 were higher than those in the early stage group(P＜0.05).In addition,the serum level of LncRNA-PART1 in the late stage group was lower than that in the middle stage group(P＜0.05),and the level of LncRNA-SNHG14 was higher than that in the middle stage group(P＜0.05).The serum LncRNA-PART1 levels in the PD-mild cognitive impairment group and PD dementia group were lower than those in the normal cognitive group(P＜0.05),while the LncRNA-SNHG14 levels were higher than those in the normal cognitive group(P＜0.05).Additionally,the serum LncRNA-PART1 level in the PD dementia group was lower than that in the PD-mild cognitive impairment(P＜0.05),while the LncRNA-SNHG14 level was higher than that in the PD-mild cog-nitive impairment group(P＜0.05).The serum levels of LncRNA-PART1 in the moderate dyskinesia group and severe dyskinesia group were lower than those in the mild dyskinesia group(P＜0.05),and the levels ofLncRNA-SNHG14 were higher than that in the mild dyskinesia group(P＜0.05).In addition,the serum level of LncRNA-PART1 in the severe dyskinesia group was lower than that in the moderate dyskinesia group(P＜0.05),and the level of LncRNA-SNHG14 was higher than that in the moderate dyskinesia group(P＜0.05).Spearman method results showed that serum LncRNA-PART1 level was negatively correlated with Hoehn-Yahr staging and UPDRS-Ⅲ score in PD patients,and positively correlated with MoCA score(P＜0.05).The level of serum LncRNA-SNHG14 was positively correlated with Hoehn-Yahr staging and UPDRS-Ⅲ score in PD patients,and negatively correlated with MoCA score(P＜0.05).Conclusion The level of ser-um LncRNA-PART1 in PD patients is decreased,and the level of LncRNA-SNHG14 is increased,both of them are related to the disease stage,cognitive impairment and motor function of PD patients,which may be-come evaluation indicators for PD progression.

Severe open tibiofibular fractures account for approximately 28.1% of all open fractures. Among them, Gustilo-Anderson type IIIB/C fractures present significant clinical challenges due to associated bone and soft tissue defects, high infection rates, and risk of amputation. Inadequate preoperative assessment may lead to suboptimal emergency surgical planning or intraoperative complications. Historically, external fixation was often preferred, but this approach has been associated with limitations such as restricted joint mobility, delayed bone union, joint stiffness, and disuse osteoporosis, resulting in poor functional recovery. With advancements of debridement techniques, standardization of antibiotic use, and popularization of early soft tissue coverage, early internal fixation has gained broader acceptance. Nevertheless, controversies persist regarding the choice of fixation method, timing of definitive fixation, use of reamed versus unreamed intramedullary nailing, and necessity of fibular fixation. To standardize the diagnosis and early management of severe open tibiofibular fractures, reduce complication rates, and improve functional recovery, the Society of Microsurgery of the Chinese Medical Association organized a panel of domestic experts to develop the Evidence-based guideline for the diagnosis and early fixation of severe open tibiofibular fractures ( version 2025), using evidence-based methodology. The guidelines provided 12 recommendations covering diagnostic and early fixation strategies of severe open tibiofibular fractures, aiming to provide clinicians with scientifically grounded and standardized guidance.

Laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (LSC) has been a safe and viable alternative to conversion to laparotomy in cases of severe cholecystitis. The objective of this study is to determine the utility of intraoperative choledochoscopy in LSC for the exploration of the gallbladder, cyst duct, and subsequent stone clearance of the cystic duct in cases of severe cholecystitis. A total of 72 patients diagnosed with severe cholecystitis received choledochoscopy-assisted laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (CALSC). A choledochoscopy was performed to explore the gallbladder cavity and/or cystic duct, and to extract stones using a range of techniques. The clinical records, including the operative records and outcomes, were subjected to analysis. No LSC was converted to open surgery, and no bile duct or vascular injuries were sustained. All stones within the cystic duct were removed by a combination of techniques, including high-frequency needle knife electrotomy, basket, and electrohydraulic lithotripsy. A follow-up examination revealed the absence of residual bile duct stones, with the exception of one common bile duct stone, which was extracted via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. In certain special cases, CALSC may prove to be an efficacious treatment for the management of severe cholecystitis. This technique allows for optimal comprehension of the situation within the gallbladder cavity and cystic duct, facilitating the removal of stones from the cystic duct and reducing the residue of the non-functional gallbladder remnant.

ObjectiveBased on the Huangdi Neijing，a traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）identification scale of five human qualities was constructed and applied in elderly people to evaluate its reliability and validity. MethodsBased on the original text of the Huangdi Neijing and a review of relevant ancient and modern literature， an identification scale of five human qualities was developed through Delphi expert interviews. Offline surveys were conducted to evaluate the feasibility，reliability，and validity of its application in elderly people，and the scale was evaluated and revised. ResultsThe scale of five human qualities is divided into five subscales：wood，fire，earth，metal，and water. Each subscale is divided into four dimensions：morphological structure，psychological characteristics，tolerance，and physiological characteristics，with a total of 75 items. The survey results in elderly people show that：（1） The recovery rate and completion rate are 100%，and the average filling time is 23.3 min. 85.5% of the samples are completed within the preset time. （2） Reliability analysis results：The homogeneity reliability of each subscale，Chronbach's α，ranges from 0.702 to 0.793. The scores of each subscale in the split-half reliability range from 0.758 to 0.841， indicating that the internal consistency of the scale is good. （3） Validity analysis results. Content validity：During the development stage of the scale，the item pool，dimensions，and structure of the scale are designed reasonably， and the content is complete. The evaluation of content validity shows that the item-level content validity index （I-CVI） ranges from 0.83 to 1.00， and the scale-level content validity index for universal agreement （S-CVI/UA） is 0.92，indicating good content validity of the scale. Construct validity extracts 22 common factors based on an eigenvalue of 1，with a contribution rate of 62.333% to the overall system. The number of common factors in the five subscales is 4，5，4，5，and 4，respectively，with contribution rates of 52.64%，53.376%，51.445%，51.359%，and 50.714%，respectively，indicating the required structure for physical fitness measurement in elderly people. ConclusionThe scale constructed in this study has high reliability and validity，and it is suitable for evaluating the physical condition of elderly people in TCM.

Objective:This study aims to analyze historical trends and predict future trends of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) attributable to high BMI for osteoarthritis (OA) in China. OA is a common chronic degenerative joint disease, with high body mass index (BMI) being a significant risk factor. in China.Methods:Based on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 database, we analyzed trends in high-BMI-attributable OA. The ASR of hogh-BMI-attributable OA DALYs increased from DALYs in China from 1990 to 2021. A Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) model was used to predict trends from 2022 to 2046. Age-standardized rates (ASR) and estimated annual percentage changes (EAPC) were calculated to assess trend changes of trends. A Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) model was used to predict trends from 2022 to 2046. Chi-square tests were used to compare differences in high BMI attribution proportions between regions and years.Results:From 1990 to 2021, China′s OA DALYs increased from 1.829 to 5.327 million, with the proportion attributable to high BMI rising from 13.47% to 21.86% ( χ2=60 527.25, P<0.001). The ASR of high-BMI-attributable to OA increased from 27.4 (-2.2, 81.5) per 100,000 to 53.0 (-4.7, 150.7) per 100 000, with an EAPC of 2.48% [95% (uncertainty interval, UI): 2.35, 2.62]. In 2021, females showed significantly higher ASR (69.2 per 100 000) than males (36.1 per 100 000). Knee OA (ASR: 50.5/100 000) demonstrated substantially higher burden than hip OA (ASR: 2.5/100 000). Age effect analysis showed DALYs peaked at ages 80~90; period effect indicated accelerated growth after 2005; cohort effect showed a U-shaped trend with the 1990 birth cohort having the highest relative risk (approximately 3.0). Projections indicated that up to 2046, total OA DALYs will reach approximately 2.39 million with an ASR of about 71, showing more significant growth among females (ASR reaching 100). Conclusion:High-BMI-attributable to OA DALYs in China shows a significant upward trend, and is expected to continue. This trend is more pronounced among females and elderly populations than males, highlighting the urgency of implementing preventive measures for high-risk groups, particularly in weight management.
