By systematically combing ancient and modern literature, this paper examined Tribuli Fructus and Astragali Complanati Semen(ACS) used in the famous classical formulas from the aspects of name, origin, production area, harvesting and processing, clinical efficacy, so as to provide a basis for the development of famous classical formulas containing such medicinal materials. The results showed that the names of Tribuli Fructus in the past dynasties were mostly derived from its morphology, and there were nicknames such as Baijili, Cijili and Dujili. The name of ACS in the past dynasties were mostly originated from its production areas, and there were nicknames such as Baijili, Shayuan Jili and Tongjili. Because both of them had the name of Baijili, confusion began to appear in the Song dynasty. In ancient and modern times, the main origin of Tribuli Fructus were Tribulus terrestris, and ancient literature recorded the genuine producing areas of Tribuli Fructus was Dali in Shaanxi and Tianshui in Gansu, but today it is mainly cultivated in Anhui and Shandong. The fruit is the medicinal part, harvested in autumn throughout history. There is no description of the quality of Tribuli Fructus in ancient times, and the plump, firm texture, grayish-white color is the best in modern times. Traditional processing methods for Tribuli Fructus included stir-frying and wine processing, while modern commonly used is purified, fried and salt-processed. The ancient records of Tribuli Fructus were spicy, bitter, and warm in nature, with modern research adding that it is slightly toxic. The main effects of ancient and modern times include treating wind disorders, improving vision, promoting muscle growth, and treating vitiligo. The mainstream base of ACS used throughout history is Astragalus complanatus. Ancient texts indicated ACS primarily originated from Shaanxi province. Today, the finest varieties come from Tongguan and Dali in Shaanxi. The medicinal part is the seed, traditionally harvested in autumn. Modern harvesting occurs in late autumn or early winter, followed by sun-drying. Ancient texts valued seeds with a fragrant aroma as superior, while modern standards prioritize plump, uniform and free of impurities. Traditional processing methods for ACS included frying until blackened and wine-frying, while modern practice commonly employs purification methods. In terms of medicinal properties, the ancient and modern records are sweet and warm in nature. Due to originally classified under Tribuli Fructus, its effects were thus regarded as equivalent to those of Tribuli Fructus, serving as the medicine for treating wind disorders, additional functions included tonifying the kidneys and treating vitiligo. The present record of its efficacy is to tonify the kidney and promote Yang, solidify sperm and reduce urine, nourish the liver and brighten the eye, etc. Based on the textual research results, it is suggested that when developing the famous classical formulas of Tribuli Fructus medicinal materials, we should pay attention to the specific reference object of Baijili, T. terrestris and A. complanatus should be identified and selected, and the processing method should be in accordance with the requirements of the formulas.

Acute kidney injury (AKI), a life-threatening clinical syndrome, lacks effective therapeutic interventions beyond supportive care such as hemodialysis and kidney transplantation. Pathologically, excessive reactive oxygen species -mediated oxidative stress is recognized as a pivotal contributor to AKI progression, positioning reactive oxygen species scavenging as a critical therapeutic target. Emerging nanozymes, nanomaterials with enzyme-mimetic activities, have shown promise in addressing AKI by targeting renal oxidative stress. The article mainly reviewed the content of classification of nanozymes, research findings on nanozymes in treating AKI along with discussions on their mechanisms of action, as well as the current challenges and existing issues in nanozymes-based AKI therapy, to provide enhanced research perspectives for advancing nanozyme applications in the prevention and treatment of AKI.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of deep hyperthermia combined with sintilimab and nab-PC (albumin-bound paclitaxel + carboplatin) regimen in the treatment of advanced squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with driver gene negative and programmed death-1 receptor ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression positive.Methods:A prospective case-control study was performed. A total of 84 advanced squamous NSCLC patients with driver gene negative and PD-L1 expression positive in Hebei Seventh People's Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were collected, and all patients were divided into the observation group and the control group according to the random number table method, with 42 cases in each group. The control group was given the treatment of sintilimab combined with nab-PC regimen, and the observation group was given deep hyperthermia on the basis of the control group. After 4 consecutive cycles of treatment, the short-term efficacy of the two groups was compared. The levels of serum tumor markers [carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCA), cytokeratin fragment 19 (CYFR21-1)], and the positive expression rates of immunohistochemistry markers [p40, p63, and cytokeratin 5/6 (CK5/6)] before and after treatment were compared between two groups. Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lung cancer module (FACT-L) scores, the adverse reactions and the long-term survival of the two groups were compared.Results:There were 26 males and 16 females in the observation group, and the age was (59±11) years; there were 22 males and 15 females in the control group, and the age was (58±11) years. The objective remission rate and the disease control rate were 71.43% (30/42), 90.48% (38/42), respectively in the observation group, and 50.00% (21/42), 80.95% (34/42), respectively in the control group; the objective remission rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.04, P = 0.044); and there was no statistically significant difference in the disease control rate of both groups ( χ2 = 1.56, P = 0.212). The levels of serum CEA, SCCA and CYFRA21-1, and the positive expression rates of p40, p63, and CK5/6 in the two groups after treatment were lower than those before treatment (all P < 0.05); and the scores of physiological status, functional status, additional concern in FACT-L scores and the total score of the scale after treatment were higher than those before treatment (all P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of adverse reactions including thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, leukopenia, anemia, fever of the two groups (all P > 0.05). The median progression-free survival (PFS) time was 6.5 months (95% CI: 3.82-12.75), 5.1 months (95% CI: 3.14-12.26),respectively in the observation group and the control group, and the difference in the median PFS time was statistically significantly of both groups ( χ2 = 4.21, P = 0.040). The median overall survival (OS) time was 12.9 months (95% CI: 6.25-15.46), 9.7 months (95% CI: 4.74-13.02), respectively in the observation group and the control group, and the difference in the median OS time was statistically significantly of both groups ( χ2 = 4.43, P = 0.035). Conclusions:Deep hyperthermia combined with sintilimab and nab-PC regimen in the treatment of advanced squamous NSCLC with driver gene negative and PD-L1 expression positive can effectively reduce the serum tumor markers levels and positive expression rate of immunohistochemical markers, improve the quality of life of patients, and increase the short-term and long-term efficacy.

OBJECTIVE To observe the short-term efficacy and safety of venetoclax combined with homoharringtonine and cytarabine in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). METHODS The data of 40 newly diagnosed AML patients admitted to our hospital from October 2022 to November 2023 were retrospectively collected and divided into observation group and control group according to treatment plan, with 20 cases in each group. The patients in the control group were given Daunorubicin hydrochloride for injection+Cytarabine for injection, and the patients in the observation group were given Venetoclax tablets+ Homoharringtonine injection+Cytarabine for injection. The patients in both groups were given relevant medicine, with 28 days as one cycle. The short-term efficacy, negative rate of minimal residual disease (MRD), duration of granulocyte deficiency, duration of platelet (PLT) <20×109 L-1, transfusion volume of suspended red blood cells and platelet, and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions were evaluated in both groups after 1 cycle of induction chemotherapy. RESULTS The complete remission or complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery (CR/CRi) rate in the observation group was significantly higher than control group (P<0.05), and the negative rate of MRD in the observation group was also significantly higher than control group (P<0.05). However, in low-, medium- and high-risk patients, there was no statistical significance in CR/CRi rates between the two groups (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the duration of agranulocytosis, the duration of PLT <20×109 L-1, the amount of suspended red blood cell transfusion, the amount of platelet transfusion, the incidence of hematologic toxicity and the incidence of non-hematologic toxicity between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Venetoclax combined with homoharringtonine and cytarabine show good short-term efficacy and safety in the treatment of AML.
