OBJECTIVE To develop a long-acting light-protective nanogel with both physical barrier and chemical clearance functions， and evaluate its performance. METHODS The photoprotective nanogel composed of mussel mucin and sodium hyaluronate was constructed based on a fullerenol-cerium oxide composite nano system， namely fullerenol-cerium oxide nanogel （FCN）， and was characterized. The antioxidant capacity of FCN was evaluated using in vitro free radical scavenging experiments； its UV shielding ability was assessed by using an SPF value detector； its biosafety was assessed according to the requirements of the Guidelines for Drug Safety Evaluation； skin adhesion was assessed using small animal 3D live imaging technology； its sun protection ability was assessed through skin sunscreen detection and histopathological observation. RESULTS The average particle sizes of cerium oxide and fullerenol nanoparticles in FCN were about 20 and 10 nm， respectively， and FCN exhibited good UV absorption and free radical scavenging abilities. SPF value of FCN was 58.95±0.82， and the ultraviolet A protection level value was 6.21±0.15. No pathogenic colonies such as Staphylococcus aureus， were detected in the nanogel， and the contents of lead， arsenic， mercury and cadmium all met the standards for pharmaceutical excipients； FCN group did not show any irritating reactions such as erythema， edema， or desquamation； blood biochemical indicators of the FCN group were within the normal reference range. The material clearance rate of mice in the artificial sweat flushing group was less than 30%， while the material clearance rate of mice in the dry cleaning group reached about 92%. The mice in the protective group did not show obvious erythema or ulcer formation throughout the experiment. Histopathology showed that the fibers were arranged in an orderly manner， and the number of collagen fibers was close to that of the control group. CONCLUSIONS The FCN formulation constructed in this study meets the relevant requirements of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia， has good safety and skin compatibility， and achieves dual synergistic protection of UV shielding and free radical scavenging.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of Dengue virus (DENV) infection among voluntary blood donors in Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture, and to evaluate the necessity of implementing nucleic acid testing (NAT) for blood donors during the rainy season (May-October). Methods: Prior to initiating donor screening, the Xishuangbanna Central Blood Center conducted in-house validation of reagent performance and participated in external quality assessment (EQA) organized by the National Center for Clinical Laboratories (NCCL). During the surveillance period (August-October 2024), a total of 2 919 donor samples were screened using a 6-sample mini-pool NAT strategy. Daily internal quality controls were recorded. Samples that tested positive in pooled screening were deconvoluted and retested in duplicate; only those reactive in both replicate wells were sent to the NCCL for confirmatory testing. At NCCL, samples underwent re-testing using five domestic NAT reagents, as well as serological assays for NS1 antigen and DENV-specific IgG/IgM. Confirmed positive samples were further characterized by serotyping, envelope (E) gene sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis using the maximum likelihood method. Results: The DENV NAT reagent demonstrated consistent detection of 40 copies/mL controls in individual donor (ID)-NAT test (mean CT: 35.61±0.40). During the 63-day quality control monitoring, DENV detection remained stable (mean CT: 22.53±0.72). The center achieved full marks in EQA assessments for 2023 and 2024. Three reactive pools were identified in initial screening, and subsequent individual testing confirmed three DENV RNA-positive donors (sample numbers: 2401, 2402, and 2403). The confirmatory test results from NCCL were: all five NAT platforms consistently detected DENV RNA in the three samples; for serological tests, 2 samples (2402, 2403) were positive for NS1 antigen, while all three samples were negative for both IgG and IgM antibodies. DENV serotyping reagents identified DENV-2 in all cases, which were further confirmed as DENV-2 Genotype Ⅱ-Cosmopolitan by E gene sequencing. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that samples 2401 and 2402 clustered with Southeast Asian strains (Thailand/MZ636802.1, Laos/PQ775621.1), while sample 2403 closely matched a previously reported local Yunnan strain (PV544686.1). Conclusion: DENV-2 infection was detected among blood donors in Xishuangbanna during the rainy season, indicating concurrent risks of imported and local transmission. We recommend implementing pooled NAT screening for blood donors in high-risk areas during dengue epidemic seasons, along with strengthened laboratory quality control, to enhance blood safety.

With the normalization and institutionalization of national centralized drug procurement(NCDP)policy,a large number of generic drugs have been included in the clinical frontline,benefiting hundreds of millions of patients.At the same time,real-world studies(RWS)on generics and innovator drugs have been carried out successively,providing evidence-based support for the promotion and optimization of NCDP policy.Thispaper systematically reviewed the RWS of generic drugs in the past fiveyears of the NCDP policy,discussed and summarized the evidence of clinical efficacy,safety and cost-effectiveness of major generic drugs such as anti-infective drugs,cardiovascular drugs,neuropsychotics,hypoglycemic drugs,and anti-tumor drugs,and analyzed the current RWS status of generic drugs.Overall,the clinical effectiveness and safety of domestic generic drugs are basically the same as that of the innovator drugs,and there is no statistically significant difference,while generic drugs are more cost-effective.Current research still reveals shortcomings in in data quality and integrity,standardization and rigor of research methods,study coverage and population diversity,pharmacoeconomic evaluation and long-term safety monitoring,which point out the direction for later research in this field.Throughsystematic integration and analysis of the RWS of generic drugs,this review is expected to improve public awareness and recognition of NCDP policy,and provide an important reference for promoting the in-depth implementation of NCDP policy.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of earthworm protein on the expression of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （PI3K/Akt/Nrf2） pathway in the aorta of spontaneously hypertensive rats （SHR） and explore mechanism of earthworm protein in treating hypertensive vascular endothelial dysfunction （VED）. MethodTen 10-week-old Wistar Kyoto （WKY） rats and fifty SHR rats were selected for a week of adaptive feeding. WKY rats were selected as the normal group， and fifty SHR rats were randomized according to body weight into model， valsartan （8×10^-3 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and high-， medium-， and low-dose （0.2， 0.1， 0.05 g·kg^-1·d^-1， respectively） earthworm protein groups. The normal and model groups were administrated with equal volume of double distilled water by gavage. During the drug intervention period， the general situations of rats in each group were observed and their blood pressure was monitored at specific time points every other week before and after administration. After 8 weeks of drug intervention， enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the levels of angiotensin-Ⅱ （Ang-Ⅱ） and endothelin-1 （ET-1） in the serum of rats in each group. The corresponding kits were used to determine the levels of nitric oxide （NO）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione peroxidase （GPX）， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， and ferrous ion （Fe²⁺）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was employed to observe the changes in the intima of the aorta. Fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was employed to measure the mRNA levels of PI3K， Akt， Nrf2， heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， and glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4） in the aortic tissue. Western blotting was used to determine the protein levels of p-PI3K （Tyr467/199）， PI3K， p-Akt （Ser473）， Akt， Nrf2， HO-1， and GPX4 in the thoracic aorta. ResultCompared with the normal group， the model group had decreased body mass， increased irritability， severe endothelial damage， elevated blood pressure and serum levels of Ang-Ⅱ， ET1， MDA， and Fe²⁺ （P<0.01）， lowered NO level （P<0.01）， and down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of p-PI3K （Tyr467/199）， PI3K， p-Akt （Ser473）， Akt， Nrf2， HO-1， and GPX4 in the aortic tissue （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， drug intervention caused no significant change in the body mass， calmed the rats， alleviated the endothelial damage， lowered blood pressure and serum levels of Ang-Ⅱ， ET1， MDA， and Fe²⁺ （P<0.01）， elevated the NO level （P<0.05）， and up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of p-PI3K （Tyr467/199）， PI3K， p-Akt （Ser473）， Akt， Nrf2， HO-1， and GPX4 （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe earthworm protein can exert antihypertensive effects by ameliorating VED in SHR. Specifically， it may regulate the PI3K/Akt/Nrf2 signaling pathway to inhibit oxidative stress and ferroptosis.

Objective To assess the effects of low-dose esketamine on the median effective dose(ED50)of ciprofol for anesthesia induction in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy.Methods Fifty-nine pa-tients underwent elective painless gastrointestinal endoscopy,26 males and 33 females,aged 18-64 years,BMI 18-30 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,were divided into two groups by random number table method:esketamine combined with ciprofol group(group EC,n = 29)and ciprofol group(group C,n = 30).Group EC received intravenous injection of esketamine 0.3 mg/kg and group C received the same amount of normal saline 2 minutes before administration of ciprofol.The initial anesthesia induction dose of ciprofol was 0.4 mg/kg.If a positive reaction occurs during the examination,the next patient will receive an increase dose of propofol 0.04 mg/kg,otherwise will decrease by propofol 0.04 mg/kg.The positive reaction was defined that the patient's BIS can not be decreased to 60 2 minutes after anesthesia induction,or the cough or body movement reaction occur at level 2 or above when entering the mirror.The dosage of ciprofol,recovery time,discharge time,the occurrence of intraoperative and postoperative adverse reactions were recorded.The ED50,95%effective dose(ED95)and 95%confidence interval(CI)of the two groups were calculated by Probit probability regression analysis.Results Compared with group C,the dosage of ciprofol,the incidence of hypotension and frequency of administration of vasoactive drugs during the exami-nation process in group EC were significantly reduced(P＜0.05).The ED50 of ciprofol for anesthesia in-duction in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy in group EC was 0.21 mg/kg(95%CI 0.12-0.25 mg/kg)and the ED95 was 0.32 mg/kg(95%CI 0.26-0.39 mg/kg).The ED50 of ciprofol for anesthesia induction in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy in group C was 0.37 mg/kg(95%CI 0.32-0.40 mg/kg)and the ED95 was 0.48 mg/kg(95%CI 0.43-0.54 mg/kg).The ED50 and ED95 of ciprofol for anesthesia induction in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy in group EC was significantly lower than that in group C(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in other frequency of adverse events between the two groups.Conclusion Esketamine 0.3 mg/kg can reduce the ED50 of ciprofol in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy and reduce the dosage of ciprofol during the examination process,which is safe for painless gastrointestinal endoscopy with stable intraoperative circulation.
