Aerosol removal using flame-retardant atomized fixatives, as a major means of aerosol control, has achieved remarkable results in the field of nuclear facility decommissioning and decontamination. Traditional atomized fixatives for aerosol removal have deficiencies in high-temperature resistance and flame retardancy, rendering them inadequate for operational scenarios involving high temperatures and flammability encountered during nuclear decommissioning. This paper investigates the current development of flame-retardant atomized fixatives for aerosol removal both domestically and internationally and presents a preliminary exploration of this technology. The experiments showed that atomized fixatives modified with flame-retardant properties not only maintained excellent aerosol capture efficiency, but also exhibited significantly improved flame-retardant performance. This confirmed the technical feasibility of the proposed approach. Finally, suggestions and reflections are proposed for the development of this technology and its application in nuclear facility decommissioning.

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.

Excessive hemorrhage and irrigation fluid absorption during endoscopic surgery may cause severe complications, while traditional monitoring methods are inaccurate and invasive. To address such problems, our research team jointly developed with industry partners an endoscopic surgery monitoring system employing multisensor fusion technique. This system achieves dynamic blood loss quantification through photoelectric measurement of hemoglobin concentration in effluent fluid and precisely calculates irrigation absorption using strain-gauge sensors with urine-compensation algorithms based on volume-balance principles, integrated with real-time threshold alerts. Validation confirms measurement errors ≤ ±4% for hemorrhage and ≤±2% irrigation fluid for absorption. Clinical applications in transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), and hysteroscopic surgeries demonstrate high accuracy and stability. The system effectively enhances surgical safety by preventing TURP syndrome, urinary tract infections, and major hemorrhage, showing significant clinical translational value.

Alcoholic liver disease(ALD)is a liver disease caused by long-term heavy drinking and one of the most common causes of liver-related morbidity and mortality.According to Chinese medicine,the development of ALD is mainly related to alcoholism,and the evolution of its pathology is a gradually aggravating process.Wine-heat injures the liver,without obvious organic lesions at the initial stage,and as the disease progresses to different stages,internal dampness appears,dampness depresses and transforms into heat,and Qi stagnation and blood stasis are gradually aggravated,which affects the functions of various internal organs,directly or indirectly,and creates a complex mechanism of crosstalk between the liver and other organs,which leads to the pathological condition of This leads to the pathological state of multi-organ dysfunction.Modern research has found that long-term alcohol abuse not only causes direct damage to the liver,but also leads to progression to end-stage liver disease by altering the intestinal barrier function and intestinal microbial community,and producing kidney damage and cardiac function.This article reviewed recent studies on the interactions between the liver and other organs in light of the Chinese and Western pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease and the theory of organ crosstalk,and introduces potential strategies for the treatment of alcoholic liver disease,which will provide a reference for the discovery of new therapeutic avenues.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of MRI ultra-short echo time sequence (MRI-UTE) in the diagnosis of pulmonary nodules.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. A total of 101 consecutive patients were recruited prospectively from January to August 2024 at Huazhong Fuwai Hospital of Zhengzhou University. All of the included patients were diagnosed with pulmonary nodules by chest CT examination and intended for treatment. All patients underwent low-dose CT examination and MRI-UTE examination. The number, classification, and lung imaging reporting and data system (lung-RADS) grading of the pulmonary nodules were analyzed. Nodules classification was determined as solid nodules or sub-solid nodules, and sub-solid nodules included part-solid nodules and pure ground-glass nodules. Taking the evaluation results of radiologists with 10 and 12 years of experience in chest imaging diagnosis as the reference standard, the Kappa test was used to analyze the agreement of CT and MRI-UTE in terms of the accurate diagnosis, classification, and lung-RADS grading of pulmonary nodules. Results:Among the 101 patients, a total of 216 pulmonary nodules were identified. MRI-UTE accurately diagnosed 180 pulmonary nodules, while 203 pulmonary nodules were detected by CT. The concordance was moderate ( Kappa=0.48, P<0.001). In terms of nodule classification, CT correctly classified 167 nodules as solid and 36 as sub-solid, whereas MRI-UTE correctly classified 153 as solid and 23 as sub-solid, with good agreement (weighted Kappa=0.73, P<0.001). For lung-RADS grading, CT correctly graded 186 nodules, with 85 graded as category 2, 46 as category 3, 33 as category 4A, 12 as category 4B, and 10 as category 4X; MRI-UTE correctly graded 155 nodules, with 74 graded as category 2, 30 as category 3, 30 as category 4A, 12 as category 4B, and 9 as category 4X. The agreement between the two modalities in determining lung-RADS grade was also good (weighted Kappa=0.74, P<0.001). Conclusion:MRI-UTE demonstrates good agreement with CT in the accurate diagnosis, classification, and lung-RADS grading of pulmonary nodules, indicating certain clinical application value.

Oocyte maturation disorders and fertilization failures are caused by a variety of factors, including complex factors such as chromosomal abnormalities and poor oocyte quality. With the widespread use of high-throughput sequencing technology, more and more genetic mutations have been found to be associated with oocyte maturation and fertilization process in infertile patients. This paper summarizes and discusses 11 key genes ( TRIP13, TBPL2, LHX8, PATL2, TUBB8, CDC20, WEE2, ZP, ASTL, JUNO and CD9) related to oocyte maturation and fertilization-related disorders in females, providing a basis for research on the prevention of diseases associated with oocyte maturation blockage and fertilization failure and the development of targeted therapies.

Bladder cancer has the characteristics of multiple and easy recurrence after surgery.At present,the main treatment methods include surgery,chemotherapy,radiotherapy,and so on.However,the recurrence rate and metastasis rate are still very high,seriously threatening human health.Oncolytic viruses have become an important part of a comprehensive cancer treatment strategy.Compared with surgery,radiotherapy and chemotherapy,oncolytic virus therapy is more precise and less toxic,which is expected to significantly improve patients' quality of life.However,the therapeutic effects of oncolytic viruses alone are satisfactory.Currently,oncolytic viruses are combined with immunotherapy,chemotherapy or radiotherapy to improve the overall anti-tumor effects.The combination of oncolytic viruses and immunotherapy has a relatively broader prospect.This article reviews the research progress of the clinical application of adenovirus vectors,lentiviral vectors,adeno-associated virus vectors,and oncolytic viruses combined with immunotherapy,chemotherapy,and radiotherapy for bladder cancer.
