ObjectiveTo unveil the mechanism of Jianpi Huogu prescription （JPHGP） in ameliorating the dyslipidemia of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femur head （SONFH） by oxylipidomics combined with transcriptomics. MethodsSixty SD rats were assigned into normal， model， low-， medium-， and high-dose （2.5， 5， 10 g·kg^-1， respectively） JPHGP， and Jiangushengwan （1.53 g·kg^-1） groups. Lipopolysaccharide was injected into the tail vein at a dose of 20 μg·kg^-1 on days 1 and 2， and methylprednisolone sodium succinate was injected at a dose of 40 mg·kg^-1 into the buttock muscle on days 3 to 5. The normal group received an equal volume of normal saline. Drug administration by gavage began 4 weeks after the last injection， and samples were taken after administration for 8 weeks. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was conducted to reveal the histopathological changes of the femoral head， and the number of adipocytes， the rate of empty bone lacunae， and the trabecular area were calculated. Micro-computed tomography was used for revealing the histological and histomorphometrical changes of the femoral head. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the serum levels of triglyceride （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， low-density lipoprotein （LDL）， high-density lipoprotein （HDL）， apolipoprotein A1 （ApoA1）， and apolipoprotein B （ApoB）. At the same time， the femoral head was collected for oxylipidomic and transcriptomic detection. The differential metabolites and differential genes were enriched and analyzed， and the target genes regulating lipid metabolism were predicted. The predicted target proteins were further verified by molecular docking， immunohistochemistry， and Western blot. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group showcased thinning of the femoral head， trabecular fracture， karyopyknosis， subchondral cystic degeneration， increases in the number of adipocytes and the rate of empty bone lacunae （P<0.01）， a reduction in the trabecular area （P<0.01）， decreases in BMD， Tb.Th， Tb.N， and BV/TV， and increases in Tb.Sp and BS/BV （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the JPHGP groups showed no obvious thinning of the femoral head or subchondroidal cystic degeneration. The high- and medium-dose JPHGP groups presented declines in the number of adipocytes and the rate of empty bone lacunae， an increase in the trabecular area （P<0.05， P<0.01）， rises in BMD， Tb.Th， Tb.N， and BV/TV， and decreases in Tb.Sp and BS/BV （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the normal group， the model group showcased raised serum levels of TG， TC， LDL， and ApoB and lowered serum levels of HDL and ApoA1 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the JPHGP groups had lowered serum levels of TG， TC， LDL， and ApoB （P<0.05， P<0.01） and a risen serum level of ApoA1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Moreover， the serum level of HDL in the high-dose JPHGP group increased （P<0.01）. A total of 19 different metabolites of disease set and drug set were screened out by oxylipidomics of the femoral head， and 119 core genes with restored expression were detected by transcriptomics. The enriched pathways were mainly concentrated in inflammation， lipids， apoptosis， and osteoclast differentiation. Molecular docking， immunohistochemistry， and Western blot results showed that compared with the normal group， the model group displayed increased content of 5-lipoxygenase （5-LO） and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ （PPARγ） in the femoral head （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， medium- and high-dose JPHGP reduced the content of 5-LO and PPARγ （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionJPHGP can restore the levels of oxidized lipid metabolites by regulating the 5-LO-PPARγ axis to treat SONFH in rats. Relevant studies provide experimental evidence for the efficacy mechanism of JPHGP in the treatment of SONFH.

ObjectiveThe mechanisms underlying therapeutic efficacies of Detumescence Analgesic Plaster was analyzed based on "effect-target" associations. MethodBased on CNKI and PubMed databases， the chemical components of Artemisia seed， bastard speedwell， and menthol in Detumescence Analgesic Plaster were collected. The capacity of transdermal absorption was predicted based on the Encyclopedia of Traditional Chinese Medicine （ETCM 2.0）. Golden Triangle of compounds with Accepted used for candidate target prediction based on the Integrative Pharmacology-based Research Platform of Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCMIP v2.0）according to the similarity of chemical structures. At the same time， the SoFDA data platform was employed to collect the symptoms related to the efficacy of Detumescence Analgesic Plaster and its related genes information. In addition， based on the interaction between the above-mentioned candidate targets and their efficacy-related genes， the "effect-target" interaction network of Detumescence Analgesic Plaster was constructed. The key targets by topological features calculation， and functional mining was carried out to explain the efficacy mechanism of Detumescence Analgesic Plaster. ResultA total of 165 candidate targets were obtained based on ETCM 2.0 and TCMIP v2.0 databases， and symptoms related to the efficacy of clearing heat， detumescence， and relieving pain， as well as 1 744 related genes were collected based on the SoFDA database. Network construction and analysis showed that the core effect targets of Detumescence Analgesic Plaster were mainly involved in regulating the "immune-inflammation" balance of the body and maintaining the homeostasis of material and energy metabolism， blood circulation， and nervous system functions， and they were closely related to the efficacy of this prescription in clearing heat， reducing detumescence， and relieving pain. Among them， the heat clearing group of Detumescence Analgesic Plaster had the functions of heat clearing， detoxifying， antibacteria， and anti-inflammation. The biological function of its key effect target group was related to correcting the imbalance of "immune-inflammation" induced by pathogens. The detumescence group of Detumescence Analgesic Plaster had the functions of reducing water and swelling and resolving hard lumps， and the biological function of its core effect target group was related to improving microcirculation disturbance. The pain relieving group of Detumescence Analgesic Plaster had the functions of removing stasis， promoting blood circulation， and relieving pain， and its core effect target group was related to correcting the nervous system and the disorder of material and energy metabolism. ConclusionThe heat clearing， swelling reducing， and pain relieving effects of Detumescence Analgesic Plaster may be closely related to its act on related candidate targets， so as to correct the imbalance of "nerve-immunity-vascular-axis"， regulate neuronal excitability and inflammatory response， and intervene in material and energy metabolism. The relevant research results lay a theoretical foundation for clarifying the advantages of Detumescence Analgesic Plaster and assisting its clinical precise positioning.

Along with enriching the graduate course system， the study explores innovative approaches and methods for graduate education and teaching in PTCM， and reflects on the challenges in course system construction and teaching， serving as a reference for improving the quality of graduate training， promoting the development of the PTCM discipline， and advancing teaching reform practices.

ObjectiveTo systematically and objectively characterize the pharmacological effects of Fufang Biejia Ruangan pills （FBRP） in the intervention of alcoholic liver disease （ALD） using acute and chronic ALD mouse models and to elucidate its molecular mechanisms. MethodFifty SPF-grade male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into the normal group， model group， and FBRP low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （9.6， 19.2， 38.4 mg·kg^-1）. Except for the normal group， the remaining groups were given 56° white wine by gavage to establish the acute ALD model， with samples collected after 4 weeks. Thirty SPF-grade male C57BL/6N mice were randomly divided into the normal group， model group， and FBRP medium-dose group （19.2 mg·kg^-1）. The chronic ALD mouse model was established using the Lieber-DeCarli method over a 10-week period. Inflammatory markers in liver tissues were assessed using hematoxylin-eosin （HE）， Sirius Red， oil red O staining， and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Intoxication behaviors of each group were objectively evaluated through sobering-up time， net-catching， and pole-climbing tests. Further bioinformatics analyses based on clinical transcriptomic data were conducted to identify key targets and molecular mechanisms of FBRP in alleviating ALD through liver-brain dialogue， with experimental validation by ELISA， Western blot， and immunohistochemical staining. ResultCompared with the normal group, the levels of aspartate aminotransferase （AST） and alanine aminotransferase （ALT） in liver tissues of mice in the acute and chronic ALD model groups were significantly increased （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the levels of AST and ALT in liver tissue of mice in FBRP groups were significantly decreased （P<0.05）. Compared with the normal group， the time of grasping the net and climbing the pole in the acute ALD model group was significantly decreased within 4 weeks （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the grasping and climbing time of FBRP high dose groups increased significantly within 4 weeks （P<0.05）. Compared with the normal group， the expression of high mobility group protein B1 （HMGB1） protein in liver tissue and prefrontal lobe tissue of mice in the chronic ALD model group was significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the expression of HMGB1 protein in FBRP medium dose group was significantly decreased （P<0.05，P<0.01）. Compared with the normal group， the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor （BDNF） protein and the release of γ-aminobutyric acid （GABA） in the prefrontal cortex of the model group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group, the expression of BDNF protein and the release of GABA in the FBRP medium dose group were significantly increased （P<0.05）. ConclusionThis study revealed that FBRP improved key pathological changes in ALD by modulating liver-brain dialogue mediated by the HMGB1-BDNF axis. These findings provide experimental evidence for the clinical use of FBRP in treating ALD and offer new insights for the development of ALD therapeutic agents.

ObjectiveTo identify the pharmacodynamic material basis of Ruyi Zhenbaowan in relieving neuropathic pain by integrating the calculation of biological network proximity and pharmacokinetic characterization. MethodThe interaction network of "drug candidate target-related gene of disease" was constructed by Cytoscape 3.8.2， and the average shortest path value of each drug putative target acting on neuropathic pain-related genes in this network was calculated by Pesca 3.8.0 tool so as to evaluate the network proximity between them， and screen prescription candidate targets with strong intervention efficiency and their corresponding potential effect components. After that， plasma and cerebrospinal fluid samples were collected from rats after administration of Ruyi Zhenbaowan at set time points， and the contents of potential effect components in samples was quantified by ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-ion trap mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TRAP/MS）， and drug concentration-time curves were plotted， then the pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by DAS 2.1.1. ResultBy evaluating the network proximity between candidate targets and neuropathic pain-related genes in the interaction network， a total of 40 putative targets of Ruyi Zhenbaowan with strong intervention effects on neuropathic pain-related genes， such as estrogen receptor 1（ESR1）， cyclic adenosine monophosphate（cAMP）-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit alpha（PRKACA） and protein kinase B1 （Akt1）， and 10 corresponding potential effect components， such as glycyrrhizic acid and betulinic acid， were obtained. Pharmacokinetic characterization showed that among the 10 potential effect components， gallic acid， apigenin-7-O-glucuronide， glycyrrhizic acid and apigenin were well absorbed and metabolized in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid， with long onset time and good bioavailability. ConclusionFrom the perspective of efficacy-target-constituent-pharmacokinetic， this study analyzes the main effective materials of Ruyi Zhenbaowan， such as glycyrrhizic acid， gallic acid， apigenin-7-O-glucuronide and apigenin， which have a high exposure in plasma or cerebrospinal fluid and have a strong intervention effect on neuropathic pain. The related results provide reliable experimental evidences for clarifying the material basis and developing quality standards of Ruyi Zhenbaowan.

Objective To formulate the quantitative grip strength training program for application in the postoperative patients with autogenous arteriovenous internal fistula,and to evaluate its effect on the mat-uration and initial use of autogenous arteriovenous internal fistula.Methods A total of 98 patients with ce-phalic venous radial arterial anastomosis internal fistula formation surgery in Shenzhen Hospital of Southern Medical University from September 2021 to November 2022 were selected as the study subjects by the conven-ience sampling method.According to the follow-up time,they were divided into the observation group (n=41) and control group (n=42).The observation group adopted the quantitative grip strength training for function-al exercise of the limb on the side of internal fistula,while the control group adopted the conventional grip training for functional exercise of the limb on the side of internal fistula.In postoperative 8 weeks,the matura-tion rate of internal fistula,natural blood flow amount of internal fistula,internal diameter of cephalic vein,pre-pump pressure used in the initial stage of internal fistula and the incidence rate of internal fistula complica-tions were evaluated in the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,the maturation rate of in-ternal fistula in the observation group was higher (97.6％ vs. 83.3％).The inner diameter of cephalic vein and natural blood flow amount of internal fistula in the observation group were larger than those in the control group[(5.24±0.66)mm vs. (4.63±0.59)mm;(1215.38±562.99)mL/min vs. (955.75±341.94)mL/min],the pre-pump pressure used at the initial stage of internal fistula in the observation group was lower than that in the control group[(119.20±19.83)mmHg vs. (135.74±17.07)mmHg],and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion The quantitative grip strength training could increase the postoperative maturity rate of patients's internal fistula,and is beneficial to the use in the initial stage of internal fistula.

Objective To investigate the impact of the "micro-monovision" approach with extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lens on visual quality in elderly patients with senile cataracts. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of elderly patients with senile cataracts treated from January 2020 to December 2023. Forty-six patients who received trifocal intraocular lens were randomly selected and included in trifocal group, while 53 patients who underwent the "micro-monovision" approach with EDOF intraocular lens were included in EDOF group. Preoperative and 3-month postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UCIVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA) and visual function index (VF-14) scores were recorded for both groups. Defocus, contrast sensitivity (CS) and spectacle independence were also evaluated at 3 months postoperatively. Results At 3 months postoperatively, both groups showed significantly higher UCDVA, UCIVA, UCNVA and VF-14 scores compared to preoperative levels; the UCIVA, UCNVA and VF-14 scores in the EDOF group were significantly higher than those in the trifocal group (P < 0.05). At 3 months postoperatively, both groups achieved visual acuity greater than 0.35 at refractive errors from -4.0 D to +2.0 D. The EDOF group achieved visual acuity greater than 0.9 at refractive errors from -1.5 D to +1.5 D, and greater than 0.8 at refractive errors from -2.5 D to -1.5 D. Within the refractive range of 0.5 D to +2.0 D, the EDOF group had better visual acuity than the trifocal group, with more stable visual acuityin the range of -2.0 D to 1.0 D. Under photopic and mesopic conditions, the EDOF group demonstrated significantly higher CS values at different spatial frequencies (3, 6, 12, 18 degree per week) compared to the trifocal group (P < 0.05). Conclusion In elderly patients with senile cataracts, the "micro-monovision" approach with EDOF intraocular lens implantation provides superior visual quality andintermediate and near vision compared to trifocal intraocular lens.
