Yuejuwan is a classic formula widely used by doctors to relieve liver and depression, with precise clinical efficacy in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The authors used bibliometric methods to collect and collate 495 ancient data related to Yuejuwan, and 105 valid data were screened out, involving 68 ancient Chinese medical books. After systematic verification of the origin of the formula of Yuejuwan, the main treatment symptoms, the principle of the formula, the composition of the drug, the dosage, the preparation method, the decoction method, and other information, the results showed that Yuejuwan originated from the Danxi Xinfa (《丹溪心法》) of the Yuan Dynasty by ZHU Zhenheng, and it is composed of five medicines, namely Atractylodis Rhizoma, Cyperi Rhizom, Chuanxiong Rhizoma, Massa Medicata Fermentata, and Gardeniae Fructus. In terms of drug base, Atractylodis Rhizoma, Cyperi Rhizom, Chuanxiong Rhizoma, and Gardeniae Fructus are in line with the records in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia, and Massa Medicata Fermentata is used. The preparation method is as follows: Massa Medicata Fermentata and Gardeniae Fructus are fried, and Cyperi Rhizoma is roasted in vinegar. Chuanxiong Rhizoma is used in the raw form, and Atractylodis Rhizoma is prepared with rice swill. The formula can regulate Qi and relieve depression and broaden the middle and remove fullness. It is clinically used for the treatment of six types of depression syndromes, chest and diaphragm plumpness, abdominal distension and leg acid, acid swallowing and vomiting, eating and drinking disharmony, toothache, mouth and tongue sores, and other diseases. The most used dosage of the formula in the ancient records through the ages is converted into the modern dosage, namely 3.05 g Atractylodis Rhizoma, 3.05 g Cyperi Rhizoma, 3.05 g Chuanxiong Rhizoma, 3.05 g Massa Medicata Fermentata, and 3.05 g Gardeniae Fructus, and the daily dosage is 15.25 g. The converted dosage is similar to that recorded in the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The formula is in pill form, and medicine should be taken with lukewarm boiled water after the meal. Through the excavation of the ancient literature related to Yuejuwan, the key information of the formula is identified, with a view to providing a more accurate reference for the clinical application of Yuejuwan and subsequent in-depth investigation.

OBJECTIVE To develop a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model for mycophenolate mofetil active metabolite mycophenolic acid (MPA) in children with primary IgA nephropathy, explore the factors affecting the pharmacokinetic parameters of MPA, and provide a basis for clinical individualized therapy. METHODS Retrospective collection was conducted on 636 concentrations and clinical data from 47 pediatric patients with primary IgA nephropathy. PPK analysis was carried out by using the nonlinear mixed-effects model; the covariates were tested with a stepwise method. Goodness-of-fit plots, Bootstrap and visual predictive check were employed to evaluate the final model. RESULTS The pharmacokinetics of MPA in children with IgA nephropathy in vivo conformed to the first-order absorption and elimination two-compartment model (objective function value of 3 276.31). Covariate analysis suggested that body weight and albumin (ALB) levels were significant influencing factors on apparent clearance rate and apparent distribution volume. The typical values of PPK parameters of MPA in the final model were as follows: the central room had a distributed volume of 5.79 L, the clearance rate was 4.06 L/h, the volume of peripheral ventricular distribution was 430.93 L, the clearance rate between compartments was 15.40 L/h, the oral absorption rate constant was 1.29 h-1. After verification, most of the predicted corrected observed concentration points were within the 90% confidence interval of the predicted corrected simulated concentration, indicating that the MPA final model had good predictive performance. CONCLUSIONS The PPK model of MPA in children with primary IgA nephropathy is established in this study, identifying body weight and ALB levels are significant factors affecting MPA metabolism.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the antioxidant activity compounds extracted from the pine needle of Cedrus deodara. METHODS Using vitamin C (VC) and gallic acid as positive control, HPLC method was employed to determine the changes of the DPPH peak area after antioxidant compounds from pine needle of C. deodara were treated with 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH). Then, the antioxidant activities of 3 active parts and 8 monomer compositions from pine needle of C. deodara were evaluated by calculating the inhibition rate of DPPH free radicals and the half inhibitory concentration (IC50). HPLC conditions were using Agilent Eclipse Plus-C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) with acetonitrile-water (62∶38, V/V) as the mobile phase. The detection wavelength was 517 nm; the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min; the column temperature was 25 ℃ ; the injection volume was 20 μL. RESULTS The order of DPPH free radical inhibition activity of active parts from pine needle of C. deodara was total flavonoids>total polyphenols>total lignans, with IC50 of 76.10, 100.50 and 115.40 μg/mL, respectively. Compared with positive control, except for kaempferol-3-O-β-D-glucoside, the sequence of seven monomer compounds for DPPH free radical inhibition activity was dihydromyricetin>hypericin>protocatechuic acid>gallic acid>ferulic acid>myricetin> kaempferol-3-O-(6″-O-E-feruloyl)-β-D-glucopyranoside>VC>isohamnin, with IC50 of 16.50, 19.40, 23.73, 27.24, 32.10, 32.20, 47.60, 93.20 and 297.20 μg/mL, respectively. CONCLUSIONS HPLC-DPPH method is established to evaluate the antioxidant activity of pine needle of C. deodara. The pine needle of C. deodara has strong antioxidant activity, among which the effective compounds of total flavonoids, total polyphenols, monomer dihydromyricetin and hypericin are natural antioxidants with development prospects.

Bladder cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the urinary system. There are a large number of bladder cancer patients globally, concentrated in the middle-aged and old-aged population, and some of them are first diagnosed with muscle invasive bladder cancer or metastatic bladder cancer, with a poor prognosis. In China, bladder cancer has become one of the most important tumors of the urinary system, with its incidence and mortality increasing year by year. The susceptibility of bladder cancer is affected by a combination of environmental and genetic factors, similar to the global trend. Smoking is considered to be one of the most important environmental risk factors for bladder cancer, which is closely related to the pathogenesis of bladder cancer and is one of the major public health problems in China. In terms of genetics, previous studies have shown that polymorphisms in cell cycle regulatory genes, tumor angiogenesis regulatory genes, DNA damage repair genes, and carcinogen metabolism enzyme regulatory genes can significantly affect the risk of bladder cancer in individuals. In recent years, with the development of environmental genomics research, the joint effect of smoking and gene variants on the susceptibility to bladder cancer has also received widespread attention. Exploring the joint effects will help to identify potential susceptibility biomarkers of bladder cancer and provide an important theoretical basis for its prevention and control. In this review, the joint effects of smoking and gene variants on bladder cancer susceptibility were elaborated.
