ObjectiveTo explore the changes in color, odor and chemical components during wine-processing of Chuanxiong Rhizoma(CR), identify differential markers, and provide a basis for standardizing the process and establishing quality standards. MethodsFifteen batches of CR samples from 4 producing areas were collected. Colorimeter and electronic nose were used to detect the color changes and odor components of CR before and after wine-processing. Multivariate statistical methods including partial least squares-discriminant analysis(PLS-DA), principal component analysis(PCA), discriminant factor analysis(DFA) and Fisher discriminant analysis were applied to identify wine-processed CR at different processing stages and establish discriminant models, and differential components were screened out based on variable importance in the projection(VIP) value1. Then, high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) was employed to detect the content changes of four components(ferulic acid, senkyunolide I, senkyunolide A and ligustilide) during the processing stages. ResultsThe differences of wine-processed CR at various stages were primarily reflected in color parameters L*(brightness value), a*(red-green value) and b*(yellow-blue value). Based on chromaticity differences, the color reference ranges were established for moderately processed CR, including L* of 46.75-48.24, a* of 5.37-6.07 and b* of 20.32-21.70. In odor analysis, DFA revealed significant differences among processing stages, and 11 odor markers were identified, with four differential markers(4-hydroxy-3-butylphthalide, isopropyl butyrate, L-limonene and 1-methoxyhexane) based on VIP values. HPLC results showed that there was no significant difference of the four components except for ligustilide in wine-processed CR at different stages. ConclusionThis study achieved rapid identification of wine-processed CR with different processing degrees by electronic sensory technology and differential component content detection, with discrimination accuracy rates of 92.4% and 93.272% for color and odor, respectively. This paper also established the reference ranges of main colorimetric parameters for wine-processed CR at different stages, and four differential components were screened out, providing a basis for standardizing the processing of wine-processed CR and establishing quality standards for this decoction pieces.

Lung cancer constitutes the most prevalent and lethal malignant tumor in China. Approximately 85% of lung cancer diagnoses correspond to the non-small cell histological subtype [non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)]. Despite surgery being the mainstay for early-stage disease, postoperative recurrence remains high and adjuvant chemotherapy offers limited benefit. In recent years, targeted therapy has demonstrated substantial advantages in driver mutation-positive NSCLC. To this end, the Lung Cancer Medical Education Committee of the Chinese Medical Education Association developed guidelines based on a systematic review of evidence through November 2025, using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) approach and a modified Delphi method. Focusing on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and addressing ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1), B-Raf proto-oncogene serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) V600E mutation, and mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) exon 14 (METex14) skipping, the guideline covers molecular testing, neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy, perioperative strategies, minimal residual disease monitoring, and postoperative surveillance. It defines testing requirements, specifies stage-directed and subtype-specific treatments, and standardizes minimal residual disease monitoring. These recommendations emphasize precision and feasibility to improve survival and quality of life.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) accompanied with KMT2D gene mutation and the impact of its co-mutated genes on prognosis. Methods Clinical data of 155 newly diagnosed DLBCL patients were obtained. The second-generation sequencing method was used to detect 475 hotspot genes, including KMT2D mutation. Patients were divided into the KMT2D mutation group and KMT2D wild-type group based on the presence or absence of KMT2D gene mutation. Clinical characteristics, differences in co-mutated genes, and survival differences between the two groups were compared. Results The frequency of KMT2D mutation was 31%, which is predominantly observed in elderly patients (P=0.07) and less in the double-expressor phenotype (P=0.07). Compared with the KMT2D wild-type group, KMT2D gene mutation was associated with higher co-mutation rates of CDKN2A (OR=2.82, P=0.01) and BCL2 (OR=3.84, P=0.016), while being mutually exclusive with MYC gene mutation (OR=0.11, P=0.013). In univariate survival analysis, no statistically significant difference in overall survival (OS) was found between the KMT2D mutation group and the wild-type group (P=0.54). Further analysis of the prognostic significance of KMT2D with other gene mutations indicated that patients with KMT2DmutBTG2mut had poorer OS than those with KMT2Dwt BTG2mut (P=0.07) and KMT2Dwt BTG2wt (P=0.05). On the contrary, patients with KMT2Dmut CD79Bmut had better OS than those with KMT2Dmut CD79Bwt (P=0.09), with no prognostic impact observed for other co-mutated genes. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that Ann Arbor stages Ⅲ and Ⅳ (HR=2.751, 95%CI: 1.169-6.472, P=0.02), elevated LDH levels (HR=2.461, 95%CI: 1.396-4.337, P=0.002), Ki-67 index>80% (HR=1.875, 95%CI: 1.066-3.299, P=0.029), and KMT2DmutBTG2mut(HR=4.566, 95%CI: 1.348-15.471, P=0.015) were independent risk factors for OS in patients with DLBCL (P<0.05). Conclusion DLBCL patients with KMT2D mutation often have multiple gene mutations, among which patients with a co-mutated BTG2 gene have poor prognosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of lidocaine medicated plaster (LMP) combined with pregabalin (PGB) on patients with postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), and the impact on serum pain mediators. Methods 108 PHN patients admitted in our hospital from January 2024 to December 2024 were selected and grouped according to the time point of receiving treatment, 54 PHN patients treated with PGB from January 2024 to June 2024 were included in the PGB group, and 54 PHN patients treated with LMP on top of the PGB group from July 2024 to December 2024 were included in the PGB+LMP group. Comparisons were made between the two groups in terms of pain score, serum pain mediator levels, dosage of PGB, and incidence of adverse reactions. Results After 4 weeks of treatment, both groups showed a decrease in Pain Rating Index scores (sensory score and affective score), Present Pain Intensity score, Visual Analog Scale score, and total score. Meanwhile, above scores of the PGB+LMP group were lower than those of the PGB group (P<0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, the levels of substance P(SP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) in both groups were lower than those before treatment, while serum 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) levels were higher than those before treatment. Moreover, the levels of SP and NPY were lower, and 5-HT level was higher in the PGB+LMP group than in the PGB group (P<0.05). The dosages of PGB in the PGB+LMP group at T1, T, T3 and T4 were significantly lower than those in the PGB group (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions was 1.85%(1/54) in the PGB+LMP group. Compared to 5.56%(3/54) in the PGB group, and the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion LMP combined with PGB was effective in the treatment of patients with PHN, which could effectively alleviate pain and lower the levels of serum pain mediators, with good safety.

Objective:To explore the effects of miR-125b on the proliferation, invasion and migration of pancreatic cancer cells by targeting SMYD2 signaling pathway.Methods:The expression of miRNA-125b in Aspc-1 and BxPC-3 lines of pancreatic cancer cells were detected. miRDB, ENCORI and TargetScan databases were used to predict the potential target genes of miRNA-125b. The downstream target genes of miRNA-125b were identified by qPCR assay and double luciferase reporter gene assay. Western blot analysis was performed to detect SMYD2 protein expression after transfection with miRNA-125b inhibitor. EdU staining, Annexin V-FITC/PI assay and Annexin V-FITC/PI assay were used to detect the effects of miRNA-125b inhibitor transfection and simultaneous transfection of miRNA-125b and SMYD2 inhibitor on cell proliferation, clonogenesis and apoptosis.Results:The expression level of miRNA-125b in pancreatic cancer cell lines was higher than that in normal pancreatic duct cells ( P<0.05). The downstream target gene of miRNA-125b was identified as SMYD2 by qPCR assay and double luciferase reporter gene assay. The expression of SMYD2 protein in miR-125b inhibitor group was higher than that in NC group ( P<0.01). EdU cell proliferation assay showed that the number of miRNA-125b positive cells in inhibitor group was lower than that in NC group and Inhibitor NC group ( P<0.05). The number of clones in miR-125b inhibitor+si-SMYD2 group was more than that in miR-125b inhibitor group ( P<0.01). Annexin V-FITC/PI assay showed that the apoptosis number of cell cells in miR-125b inhibitor+si-SMYD2 group was lower than that in miR-125b inhibitor group ( P<0.01) . Conclusion:miRNA-125b is highly expressed in pancreatic cancer cells, and can directly affect the expression of SMYD2 gene, thereby promoting the proliferation and inhibiting the apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for mortality and bleeding complications in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)treated patients and to evaluate the impact of thrombocytopenia severity on the prognosis of ECMO therapy.Methods A total of 153 patients who received ECMO treatment at Peking University Third Hospital between January 2013 and September 2024 were en-rolled in this study.The patients were divided into death group(n=97)and recovery group(n=56)based on their final outcomes.Additionally,the patients were categorized into bleeding group(n=104)and non-bleeding group(n=49)based on the occurrence of bleeding complications during ECMO.Clinical baseline characteristics and extreme laboratory values during ECMO were compared be-tween groups.Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for mortality and bleeding.The patients were further divided,based on the initial platelet(PLT)values on the day of catheter placement and the lowest platelet count during ECMO,into normal group(PLT≥ 100× 109/L),moderate reduction group[PLT=(50~99)× 109/L],and severe reduction group(PLT<50× 109/L).Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to compare survival rates among these groups.The patients in the moderate and severe reduction groups were further divided into a platelet transfusion group and a non-transfusion group,and the outcomes and complication rates were com-pared.Results The recovery group had a higher proportion of myocarditis,higher minimum values of PLT,Hb,and Fib,and higher initial PLT values,while the maximum values of lactic dehydrogenase(LDH),total bilirubin(T-Bil),prothrombin time(PT),and procalcitonin(PCT)were lower(all P<0.05)with significant differences.Logistic regression showed that age and maximum PCT were independent risk factors for mortality(OR=1.025 and 1.015 respectively,all P<0.05).The bleeding group had longer ECMO dura-tions,more plasma transfusions,lower minimum Hb values,and higher maximum values of WBC,neutrophils(Neu),and APTT(all P<0.05)with statistical differences.The minimum PLT value,maximum WBC value,and maximum APTT value were independent risk factors for bleeding complications(OR=0.986,1.062,and 1.004 respectively,all P<0.05).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the patients in the severe reduction group had lower survival rates,regardless of whether the grouping was based on initial or minimum platelet counts(all P<0.05).Platelet transfusion improved the mortality in the severe reduction group(P<0.05)but had no effect on the moderate reduction group.Conclusion Age and peak value of PCT are the risk factors for mortality in ECMO patients,while mini-mum PLT count,peak value of WBC and APTT are the risk factors for bleeding complications.Early intervention for infection and in-flammation during ECMO may improve the outcome of patients.Severe thrombocytopenia during ECMO therapy increased the risk of mortality,and targeted platelet transfusion may improve the survival of these patients.
8.Experimental study on the influence of spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) changes caused by spinal shortening on the safety of spinal cord function based on laser speckle imaging
Chinese Journal of Orthopaedics 2025;45(6):368-375
Objective:To investigate the changes in spinal cord blood flow (SCBF) caused by spinal osteotomy shortening and its impact on spinal cord function, thereby determining a safe range for osteotomy shortening.Methods:Fifteen healthy male rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: the control group (spinal osteotomy with dura mater exposure only), the shortening 1/3 group (spinal shortening by one-third with dura mater exposure), and the shortening 1/2 group (spinal shortening by one-half with dura mater exposure), with five rabbits in each group. A laser speckle imaging system was used to monitor SCBF and spinal vascular diameter throughout the spinal osteotomy and shortening procedures. SCBF and vascular diameter were recorded postoperatively. Spinal cord function was assessed using intraoperative electrophysiological monitoring, and sensory and motor functions were evaluated using the Reuters score before and after surgery.Results:No abnormalities were detected in the electrophysiological monitoring of any group during the experiment. Laser speckle imaging revealed that, compared to pre-osteotomy levels, some branch vessels began to fade significantly when spinal shortening reached 1/3, and some small branch vessels disappeared in imaging at 1/2 shortening. The postoperative SCBF values for the control, shortening 1/3, and shortening 1/2 groups were 229.71±139.00 PU, 296.84±118.21 PU, and 168.06±76.57 PU, respectively, with significant differences ( F=43.820, P<0.001). The postoperative spinal vascular diameters were 215.39±118.23 μm, 276.47±96.00 μm, and 350.77±90.97 μm, respectively, also showing significant differences ( F=32.150, P<0.001). Postoperative Reuters scores were 1.20±0.45, 2.40±0.55, and 4.00±0.71 for the control, shortening 1/3, and shortening 1/2 groups, respectively, with significant differences ( F=29.600, P<0.001). The shortening 1/2 group had significantly higher scores than both the control and shortening 1/3 groups ( P<0.05). A positive correlation was observed between SCBF and spinal cord blood vessel diameter from pre-osteotomy to 1/3 shortening ( r=0.661, P=0.037). However, SCBF negatively correlated with postoperative Reuters scores from 1/3 to 1/2 shortening ( r=-0.830, P=0.003), whereas spinal cord blood vessel diameter showed a positive correlation with postoperative Reuters scores ( r=0.537, P=0.039). Conclusions:As the degree of spinal shortening increases, the diameter of spinal cord blood vessels gradually expands, while SCBF initially rises and then declines. A positive correlation exists between vascular diameter and SCBF at shortening ratios of <1/3, whereas a negative correlation is observed between SCBF and postoperative Reuters scores at shortening ratios between 1/3 and 1/2. Additionally, vascular diameter correlates positively with postoperative Reuters scores from pre-osteotomy to 1/2 shortening. These findings suggest that spinal cord function can be effectively preserved when spinal shortening does not exceed 1/2.

The downstream target gene of miRNA-125b was identified as SMYD2 by qPCR assay and double luciferase reporter gene assay. The expression of SMYD2 protein in miR-125b inhibitor group was higher than that in NC group ( P<0.01). EdU cell proliferation assay showed that the number of miRNA-125b positive cells in inhibitor group was lower than that in NC group and Inhibitor NC group ( P<0.05). The number of clones in miR-125b inhibitor+si-SMYD2 group was more than that in miR-125b inhibitor group ( P<0.01). Annexin V-FITC/PI assay showed that the apoptosis number of cell cells in miR-125b inhibitor+si-SMYD2 group was lower than that in miR-125b inhibitor group ( P<0.01) . Conclusion:miRNA-125b is highly expressed in pancreatic cancer cells, and can directly affect the expression of SMYD2 gene, thereby promoting the proliferation and inhibiting the apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells.
10.Meta analysis of effects on spinal cord protection and safety of changes in spinal cord blood flow(SCBF)caused by spinal osteotomy
Chinese Journal of Spine and Spinal Cord 2025;35(2):170-182
Objectives:To systematically evaluate the effects of spinal osteotomy and spinal cord blood flow(SCBF)on the spinal cord,and to explore the safe range of osteotomy.Methods:The relevant research liter-atures on spinal osteotomy shortening and SCBF in CNKI,Wanfang,VIP,PubMed,Cochrane Library,EM-BASE and CBM databases published before May 2024 were searched by computer.Two researchers indepen-dently conducted literature screening and extracted data(research design,sample size,and outcome indicators).The quality of the included literatures was evaluated by using the improved Jadad score scale and Newcastle-Ottawa scale(NOS)score.The Revman 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis.Results:A total of 8 litera-tures were included,and the risk of the included literatures mainly came from the allocation hiding and out-come blind methods after evaluated with the Cochrane risk bias assessment tool;The Jadad scale scores of the 6 randomized controlled studies and the NOS scores of the 2 cohort studies were all ≥ 5.A total of 170 subjects were included,including 91 dogs,50 rabbits,and 29 clinical patients;In the animal experiments of dogs,the SCBF increased when the spinal vertebrae were shortened by 2/4 compared with 1/3 or 1/4[OR=-24.10,95%CI(-35.96,-12.23),Z=3.98,P<0.0001];The SCBF in dogs decreased when the spinal vertebrae were shortened by 2/3 or 3/4 compared with 2/4[OR=44.63,95%CI(19.16,70.09),Z=3.43,P=0.0006];Spinal cord evoked potentials(SCEP)was significantly abnormal when spinal vertebrae shortening was 2/3 or 3/4 compared with 1/3 or 1/4[OR=0.03,95%CI(0.00,0.21),Z=3.55,P=0.004];The dural sac tortuous angle in-creased significantly when the spinal vertebrae shortening in rabbits was more than 2/4[OR=53.51,95%CI(17.92,89.10),Z=2.95,P=0.003],which led to a sharp decrease in SCBF,and the difference was statistically significant.In clinical studies,the SCBF after spinal vertebrae shortening of less than 2/4,that was,about 2/4 of the resection space,was slightly higher than that after vertebral column resection(VCR)[OR=43.81,95%CI(20.40,67.21),Z=3.67,P=0.002],and the difference was statistically significant.Conclusions:In animal ex-periments in dogs and rabbits and clinical studies,spinal vertebrae shortening of less than 2/4 is the safe range of osteotomy;In the animal experiment of dogs,when the shortening is more than 2/3 or 3/4,it will lead to a sharp decrease in SCBF and cause obvious SCEP abnormalities.
