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.

As a potential vectored vaccine,Newcastle disease virus(NDV)has been subject to various studies for vaccine development,while relatively little research has outlined the immunomodulatory effect of the virus in antigen presentation.To elucidate the key inhibitory factor in regulating the interaction of infected dendritic cells(DCs)and T cells,DCs were pretreated with the NDV vaccine strain LaSota as an inhibitor and stimulated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)for further detection by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),flow cytometry,immunoblotting,and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).The results revealed that NDV infection resulted in the inhibition of interleukin(IL)-12p40 in DCs through a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)-dependent manner,thus inhibiting the synthesis of IL-12p70,leading to the reduction in T cell proliferation and the secretion of interferon-γ(IFN-γ),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and IL-6 induced by DCs.Consequently,downregulated cytokines accelerated the infection and viral transmission from DCs to T cells.Furthermore,several other strains of NDV also exhibited inhibitory activity.The current study reveals that NDV can modulate the intensity of the innate?adaptive immune cell crosstalk critically toward viral invasion improvement,highlighting a novel mechanism of virus-induced immunosuppression and providing new perspectives on the improvement of NDV-vectored vaccine.

Objective To study the clinical effect of Kinesio Tape for treating the lower limb function in children with spastic cerebral palsy accompanied by knee hyperextension.Methods Sixty children with spastic cerebral palsy treated by rehabilitation therapy in this hospital from August 2017 to December 2018 were se-lected as the study subjects and divided into the experiment group and control group,30 cases in each group.The control group adopted the conventional rehabilitation therapy,while the experiment group was combined with Kinesio Tape on the basis of conventional rehabilitation therapy.The treatment course lasted for 3 months.Before and after treatment,the children patients conducted the Gross Motor Function Measure-88(GMFM-88)scoring,Modified Ashworth Scale(MAS)grading on the triceps surae muscle in the affected side,surface electromyography,measurement of dorsiflexion angle of foot in knee extension position and meas-urement of maximum knee extension angle of knee joint.Results The GMFM-88 score,triceps surae muscle MAS grade in the affected side,foot dorsiflexion angle in Knee extension position,maximum knee extension angle in the erect position in the two groups were improved compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05).Furthermore,the above indicators in the experimental group were superior to those in the control group(P＜0.05).The surface electromyographic value had no statistical difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).No obvious adverse reactions occurred during the treatment process with good compliance.The chil-dren's parents in the experiment group filled in Kinesio Tape satisfaction questionnaire,and had 100％satis-faction.Conclusion Kinesio Tape combined with routine rehabilitation therapy could effectively improve the muscular tension,joint activity,knee excessive extension degree and exercise function in children with spastic cerebral palsy accompanied by knee hyperextension.

AIM:To investigate the effects of ginkgetin on neurological deficit and angiogenesis induced by cerebral ischemia/reperfusion(I/R)and its underlying mechanism.METHODS:Sixty SD rats were randomly allocated into three groups:sham group,I/R model group,and ginkgetin(40 mg/kg)treatment(I/R+ginkgetin)group,with twenty rats in each group.The middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion(MCAO/R)rat model was employed to simulate cere-bral I/R,and ginkgetin was administered continuously for 7 days following reperfusion.The cerebral infarction volume was quantified using TTC staining.Neuronal density in the ischemic penumbra was assessed through Nissl staining and immu-nohistochemistry for neuron-specific nuclear protein(NeuN).Microvessel density and angiogenesis in the ischemic pen-umbra of each group were analyzed using CD31 labeling and BrdU/von willebrand factor(vWF)double labeling immuno-fluorescence staining.Western blot analysis was performed to determine the levels of heat shock protein 70(HSP70),vas-cular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),and hypoxia inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)in the ischemic penumbra.RE-SULTS:Compared with the I/R model group,the cerebral infarction volume was significantly reduced in ginkgetin treat-ment group(P<0.01),the number of neurons,the microvessel density,angiogenesis and the expression levels of HIF-1α,VEGF,and HSP70 in the ischemic penumbra were significantly increased(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Ginkgetin exhibits the potential to augment angiogenesis and facilitate neurological function recovery in MCAO rats,while concur-rently upregulating the expression of HSP70,VEGF,and HIF-1α within the ischemic penumbra.

【Objective】 To explore the risk factors for the production of anti-HLA antibodies in patients with hematological diseases before hematopoietic stemcell transplantation. 【Methods】 The results and clinical data of 1 008 patients with hematological diseases in our hospital who underwent anti-HLA antibody testing were collected by using Luminex technology platform before transplantation from 2016 to 2018 for statistical analysis. 【Results】 The total positive rate of anti-HLA antibodies in 1 008 patients was 24.08%. Multivariate analysis showed that independent risk factors associated with the production of anti-HLA antibodies included age≥30 years old(P=0.046, OR1.467, 95%CI1.007-2.136), time from disease diagnosis to antibody testing≥41 days(P=0.000, OR1.830, 95%CI1.306-2.565), initial platelet count<20×10⁹/L(P=0.020, OR1.543, 95%CI1.072-2.220), prior pregnancy(P=0.000, OR5.187, 95%CI3.689-7.293), transfusions before admission(P=0.001, OR1.762, 95%CI1.257-2.470)and total platelet transfusion volumes after admission≥30 U(P=0.000, OR2.352, 95%CI1.638-3.376). Age ≥30 years old(P=0.023, OR=1.839, 95%CI1.088-3.108)and prior pregnancy(P=0.042, OR=5.258, 95%CI1.062-26.038)are associated with the production of anti-HLA class Ⅰ and class Ⅱ antibodies, respectively. The time from disease diagnosis to antibody testing≥41 days(P=0.000, OR=2.873, 95%CI1.612-5.119), initial platelet count<20×10⁹/L(P=0.008, OR=2.164, 95%CI1.225-3.822), prior pregnancy(P=0.002, OR=6.734, 95%CI1.993-22.751), transfusions before admission(P=0.001, OR=2.746, 95%CI1.531-4.925)and total platelet transfusion volumes after admission>30 U(P=0.006, OR=3.459, 95%CI1.416-8.451)are associated with the production of anti-HLA class Ⅰ and Ⅱ antibodies. 【Conclusion】 Older age, longer course of disease, lower PLT count, history of pregnancy and blood transfusion, and higher total amount of PLT transfusion are risk factors which affect the production of anti-HLA antibodies.Therefore, it is advisable to test for anti-HLA antibodies according to the situation before transplantation, which is of great value in guiding donor selection, monitoring antibody changes and improving transplant prognosis.

Climate change has led to an increasing frequency and intensity of extreme climate events such as heat and drought extremes with considerable global public health burden. This systematic review collected 87 domestic and international studies from 2000 to 2023, considering the impacts of heat extremes, drought extremes, and compound hot-dry events on infectious diseases attributable to various transmission pathways such as waterborne, foodborne, insect-borne, airborne, and contact-transmitted diseases. Our results showed that high temperature was associated with increased transmission risks of waterborne and foodborne diseases including infectious diarrheal diseases (cholera, dysentery, typhoid, and paratyphoid) and infectious gastroenteritis; vector-borne diseases including dengue fever, Zika virus (ZIKV) disease, chikungunya fever, malaria, West Nile fever, and Rift Valley fever; airborne diseases including influenza-like diseases, influenza A, measles, and mumps; and contact-transmitted diseases including HIV/AIDS, schistosomiasis, and leptospirosis. Additionally, drought conditions also amplified the transmission risks of waterborne and foodborne diseases including cholera, Escherichia coli infection, rotavirus infection, and hepatitis E; vector-borne diseases such as scrub typhus, schistosomiasis, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome, and West Nile fever; airborne diseases including meningococcal meningitis, pertussis, measles, and upper respiratory infections; and contact-transmitted diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Along with global warming, the frequency of compound high temperature and drought events shows a considerably increasing trend, causing more adverse health effects than heat or drought alone. However, there is limited research quantifying their effects on infectious diseases. These associations may be mediated through temperature and precipitation on infectious disease pathogens, transmission vectors, population susceptibility, public health services, and behaviors. In the context of climate change, the increasing occurrence of compound events of high temperatures and droughts raises health concerns, and further studies are needed to enhance our understanding of the impacts of climate change on infectious diseases and improve human adaption to climate change.

Background: SM-like (LSM) genes a family of RNA-binding proteins, are involved in mRNA regulation and can function as oncogenes by altering mRNA stability. However, their roles in B-cell progression and tumorigenesis remain poorly understood. Methods: We analyzed gene expression profiles and overall survival data of 123 patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). The LSM index was developed to assess its potential as a prognostic marker of MCL survival. Results: Five of the eight LSM genes were identified as potential prognostic markers for survival in MCL, with particular emphasis on the LSM.index. The expression levels of these LSM genes demonstrated their potential utility as classifiers of MCL. The LSM.index-high group exhibited both poorer survival rates and lower RNA levels than did the overall transcript profile. Notably, LSM1 and LSM8 were overexpressed in the LSM.index-high group, with LSM1 showing 2.5-fold increase (p < 0.001) and LSM8 depicting 1.8-fold increase (p < 0.01) than those in the LSM.index-low group.Furthermore, elevated LSM gene expression was associated with increased cell division and RNA splicing pathway activity. Conclusions The LSM.index demonstrates potential as a prognostic marker for survival in patients with MCL. Elevated expression of LSM genes, particularly LSM1 and LSM8, may be linked to poor survival outcomes through their involvement in cell division and RNA splicing pathways. These findings suggest that LSM genes may contribute to the aggressive behavior of MCL and represent potential targets for therapeutic interventions.
