The classic formula Fangji Fulingtang is from ZHANG Zhongjing's Synopsis of the Golden Chamber in the Eastern Han dynasty. It is composed of Stephaniae Tetrandrae Radix, Astragali Radix, Cinnamomi Ramulus, Poria, and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, with the effects of reinforcing Qi and invigorating spleen, warming Yang and promoting urination. By a review of ancient medical books, this paper summarizes the composition, original plants, processing, dosage, decocting methods, indications and other key information of Fangji Fulingtang, aiming to provide a literature basis for the research, development, and clinical application of preparations based on this formula. Synonyms of Fangji Fulingtang exist in ancient medical books, while the formula composition in the Synopsis of the Golden Chamber is more widespread and far-reaching. In this formula, Stephaniae Tetrandrae Radix, Astragali Radix, Cinnamomi Ramulus, Poria, and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma are the dried root of Stephania tetrandra, the dried root of Astragalus embranaceus var. mongholicus, the dried shoot of Cinnamomum cassia, the dried sclerotium of Poria cocos, and the dried root and rhizome of Glycyrrhiza uralensis, respectively. Fangji Fulingtang is mainly produced into powder, with the dosage and decocting method used in the past dynasties basically following the original formula. Each bag is composed of Stephaniae Tetrandrae Radix 13.80 g, Astragali Radix 13.80 g, Cinnamomi Ramulus 13.80 g, Poria 27.60 g, and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma 9.20 g. The raw materials are purified, decocted in water from 1 200 mL to 400 mL, and the decoction should be taken warm, 3 times a day. Fangji Fulingtang was originally designed for treating skin edema, and then it was used to treat impediment in the Qing dynasty. In modern times, it is mostly used to treat musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases and circulatory system diseases, demonstrating definite effects on various types of edema and heart failure. This paper clarifies the inheritance of Fangji Fulingtang and reveals its key information (attached to the end of this paper), aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the development of preparations based on this formula.

The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) released the "2024 ESC guidelines for the management of elevated blood pressure and hypertension" on August 30, 2024. This guideline updates the 2018 "Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension." One notable update is the introduction of the concept of "elevated blood pressure" (120-139/70-89 mm Hg). Additionally, a new systolic blood pressure target range of 120-129 mm Hg has been proposed for most patients receiving antihypertensive treatment. The guideline also includes numerous additions or revisions in areas such as non-pharmacological interventions and device-based treatments for hypertension. This article interprets the guideline's recommendations on definition and classification of elevated blood pressure and hypertension, and cardiovascular disease risk assessment, diagnosing hypertension and investigating underlying causes, preventing and treating elevated blood pressure and hypertension. We provide a comparison interpretation with the 2018 "Guidelines for the management of arterial hypertension" and the "2017 ACC/AHA guideline on the prevention, detection, evaluation, and management of high blood pressure in adults."

Objective To observe the effects of ice-water swimming on pathological changes in model gouty rats,and investigate the relevant regulatory mechanism of the purinergic P2X7R receptor.Methods Male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into normal(NORM)and experimental groups including gouty control(GC),ice-water swimming(IWS),and Brilliant Blue G(BBG,a P2X7R inhibitor)groups.Rats in the experimental groups were modeled to simulate hyperuricemia and gouty arthritis by inhibiting uric acid metabolism combined with the Coderre method.Rats in the ice-water swimming group were treated with 5 min of endurance swimming in an ice-water mixture at a depth of about 0.5 m for 0 h and 12 h after modeling by the Coderre method,while rats in the BBG group were injected intraperitoneally with BBG solution once after modeling.Ankle swelling index was calculated using a formula.Serum uric acid levels were detected by uricase assay,and serum levels of the inflammatory factors interleukin(IL)-1β,1L-6,and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-αwere detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The pathological status of the ankle joints was examined by hematoxylin and eosin staining.P2X7R and NLRP3 protein expression levels in synovial tissue were detected by Western blot and immunohistochemistry,respectively.Results Serum uric acid levels and the ankle joint swelling index were significantly higher in the experimental groups compared with the normal group(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the synovial tissues showed different degrees of inflammatory infiltration.The ankle swelling index was significantly higher in the ice-water swimming group compared with the gouty control group at 12 h(P<0.05).Serum IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α levels(P<0.01)and P2X7R and NLRP3 protein levels in synovial tissues were all significantly elevated(P<0.05).Histopathology showed that the cartilage surface was broken and the synovial tissue showed severe hyperplasia and erosion,accompanied by numerous inflammatory cell aggregates.There were no significant changes in P2X7R or NLRP3 protein expression or pathology in synovial tissues in the BBG group compared with the gouty control group(P>0.05),but serum IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α levels were all significantly suppressed(P<0.01).Conclusions Cold stimulation and strenuous exercise simulated by ice-water swimming may exacerbate pathological damage in gouty arthritis via a mechanism related to high P2X7R expression in the joints.

Objective:To explore any effect of regular aerobic exercise on liver fibrosis in rats with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its mechanism.Methods:Twenty-four 8-week-old male OLETF rats were randomly divided into a model sedentary group and a model exercise group, each of 12. Twelve age- and sex-matched LETO rats of the same strain were selected into the healthy control group. The model exercise group underwent treadmill exercise training for 12 weeks, while the other two groups undertook no exercise. After the training, fasting blood glucose, insulin and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were measured using colorimetry. Liver tissue was resected to observe any histopathological changes using Masson staining and to measure the collagen volume fraction. Zymography was applied to determine the activities of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and MMP-9 in the liver. Interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), α-smooth muscle actin (αSMA), cysteine-rich protein 61 (CCN1), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), MMP-12 and the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) proteins in the liver were quantified using western blotting.Results:Compared with the healthy control group, the model sedentary group on average displayed a significant increase in body weight, fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, HbA1c, liver collagen volume fraction, and the protein expression of TGF-β, αSMA, CCN1, IL-1β, TNF-α, and MMP-12. There was a significant decrease in the activity of MMP-2 and MMP-9 on average. Compared with the model sedentary group, the model exercise group on average displayed lower fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, HbA1c, and liver collagen volume fraction, as well as less expression of TGF-β, αSMA, IL-1β, TNF-α, and MMP-12 protein. MMP-2 and MMP-9 activity was higher, as was the expression of CCN1 protein. There were no significant differences in average body weight between the model sedentary and exercise groups.Conclusion:Regular exercise can delay liver fibrosis, at least in NAFLD rats. The mechanism is related to inhibiting hepatic inflammatory response, the activation of hepatic stellate cells and improving extracellular matrix remodeling.

Objective:To investigate whether circular RNA 0026134 (circ_0026134) affects the radiosensitivity of hepatoma cells by regulating the miR-1270/growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (GRB2) pathway.Methods:Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression levels of circ_0026134, miR-1270, and GRB2 in liver cancer tissues and cells. Bioinformatics analysis, a dual-luciferase gene reporter assay, RT-qPCR, and western blot were used to analyze the targeting relationships between circ_0026134 and miR-1270 and miR-1270 and GRB2. The effects of circ_0026134, miR-1270, and GRB2 expression combined with 6 Gy on the proliferation, invasion, migration, and apoptosis of Huh7 and SK-HEP-1 cells were detected by a cell counting kit, a transwell assay, a scratch assay, and flow cytometry. The tumorigenesis experiment was used to detect the effect of silencing circ_0026134 in nude mice. Measurement data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation. The independent sample t-test was used for comparison between two groups, and the one-way analysis of variance and SNK- q test were used for comparison between multiple groups. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:The expression levels of circ_0026134 and GRB2, Huh7, and SK-HEP-1 cells in liver cancer tissues were significantly increased, while the expression levels of miR-1270 were significantly decreased ( P < 0.05). The expression of circ_0026134 in Huh7 and SK-HEP-1 decreased significantly after radiotherapy ( P < 0.05). circ_0026134 binds directly to miR-1270 and negatively regulates miR-1270 expression ( P < 0.05). miR-1270 binds directly to GRB2 and negatively regulates GRB2 expression ( P < 0.05). 6 Gy radiation significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of Huh7 and SK-HEP-1 cells and induced apoptosis ( P < 0.05). Silencing circ_0026134 or overexpression of miR-1270 significantly enhanced the anti-proliferation, anti-migration, invasion, and pro-apoptosis effects of 6 Gy treatment on hepatoma cells ( P < 0.05). Inhibition of miR-1270 significantly weakened the effects of silencing circ_0026134 combined with 6 Gy radiation on proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of hepatoma cells ( P < 0.05). Overexpression of GRB2 significantly weakened the effects of miR-1270 overexpression combined with 6 Gy radiation on proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of hepatoma cells ( P < 0.05). circ_0026134 knockdown significantly delayed tumor growth in vivo ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:Silencing circ_0026134 strengthens radiation treatment’s anti-proliferation, anti-migration, invasion, and pro-apoptotic effects in hepatoma cells by negatively regulating the miR-1270/GRB2 pathway, thereby enhancing radiosensitivity.
