1.Effects and molecular mechanisms of Abelmoschi Corolla and its active flavonoids in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy
Journal of China Pharmaceutical University 2026;57(1):115-121
Abelmoschi Corolla is extensively applied in managing diabetic nephropathy (DN) and other renal conditions due to its diuretic and detoxifying properties. The primary bioactive constituents of Abelmoschi Corolla are flavonoids, including notably rutin, hyperoside, isoquercitrin, hibifolin, myricetin, quercetin 3-O-β-D-glucuronide, and quercetin. These flavonoid components can influence the pathological progression of DN via a multi-target synergistic mechanism, effectively reducing proteinuria levels. This review examines the roles of Abelmoschi Corolla and its flavonoid components in modulating the key pathological aspects of DN and their underlying mechanisms, and briefly discusses the metabolic patterns of its bioactive components and the research progress in combined medication, aiming to provide a forward-looking scientific foundation for further investigating the molecular mechanisms and clinical applications of Abelmoschi Corolla in DN treatment.

To analyze the clinical characteristics of acute diquat poisoning complicated by central nervous system injury (CNSI) and identify early risk factors, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for reducing mortality in diquat poisoning with CNSI. Clinical data from patients with acute diquat poisoning admitted to the Emergency Department of Fuyang People's Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University between October 2019 and October 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into CNSI and non-CNSI groups based on complications. Clinical features were compared between groups, and variables with statistical significance were subjected to binary logistic regression to identify independent risk factors for CNSI. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to evaluate the predictive value of these factors. A total of 63 eligible patients were included, with 18 deaths (28.57%) and 26 cases (41.27%) complicated by CNSI. The median time from diquat ingestion to CNSI onset was 15.5 (9.8, 31.3) hours. The CNSI group exhibited significantly higher mortality rates and required more frequent respiratory support and anti-shock therapy than the non-CNSI group (all CNSI is a fatal complication of acute diquat poisoning with high mortality. Diquat plasma concentration (≥549.95 μg/L) and APACHE Ⅱ score are independent risk factors for CNSI, and their combined application enhances predictive accuracy. These findings underscore the importance of early risk stratification and targeted interventions in high-risk populations.

Objective To explore the solution of local water-fat separation swap artifacts(WFS-SA)on nasopharyngeal T1WI-itera-tive decomposition of water and fat with echo asymmetry and least-squares estimation(T1WI-IDEAL)enhanced examination images.Methods Thirty-seven patients with obvious WFS-SA on nasopharyngeal enhanced examination using the A group T1WI-IDEAL param-eters were collected.Scans with modified parameters B,C,and D groups were subsequently performed based on the A group parame-ters.Subjective ratings of image quality were conducted on the four image groups,and the image signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of the posterior wall of the nasopharynx and medulla oblongata was quantified.The total number of artifact slices(TAS),total artifact area(TAA),and maximum single-slice artifact area(SSAAmax)of the WFS-SA in the four image groups were recorded.The consistency of image quality ratings between the two technologists was analyzed via the intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC),and one-way analysis of variance or rank-sum test was used to compare the SNR,TAS,TAA,and SSAAmax among the four image groups.Results The subjective rating for modified B,C,and D groups of T1WI-IDEAL images by two technologists was deemed satisfactory(ICC=0.721-0.928,P<0.001).Significant variations in image quality ratings were observed among the three groups(H=45.131,P<0.001),with ratings for C and D groups surpass-ing those for B group(P<0.001).The TAS,TAA,and SSAAmax exhibited a decreasing pattern on T1WI-IDEAL images across A,B,C,and D groups,with statistically significant variances observed among all groups(P<0.001).Moreover,the SNR of the medulla oblongata layer in D group displayed a notably higher value compared to A,B groups,with statistically significant distinctions(P<0.001).Conclusion By combining the reduction of the echo train length(ETL)to 2 with the implementation of a double shimming,the occurrence of WFS-SA on nasopharyngeal T1WI-IDEAL enhanced examination images can be minimized and the overall image quality can be enhanced.

This article presents the anti-infective treatment and pharmaceutical care of an elderly patient with liver cirrhosis complicated with severe psittacosis.Based on the pathophysiological characteristics of infection in patients with severe liver diseases and in combination with relevant guidelines,the combined regimen of omadacycline+moxifloxacin was adopted to treat psittacosis.In case of recurrent episodes,Aspergillus fumigata was detected in the metagenomic next-generation sequencing of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid.Initially,voriconazole was administered for treatment,and later switched to posaconazole.Additionally,clinical pharmacists provided pharmaceutical care encompassing adverse reaction monitoring and voriconazole therapeutic drug monitoring.The patient's infection was effectively controlled,body temperature returned to normal,white blood cell counts and platelet counts basically returned to normal range,serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein,procalcitonin,and other inflammatory indicators significantly decreased,and the patient was discharged.Clinical pharmacists assisted clinicians in formulating a reasonable anti-psittacosis treatment plan and provided individualized pharmaceutical care to ensure the effectiveness and safety of clinical drug treatment.

Objective:To observe the efficacy of synchronous scalp acupuncture and rehabilitation training in the treatment of poststroke dysphagia.Methods:A total of 106 participants were divided into an observation group and a control group using the random number table method,with 53 cases in each group.The control group was treated with scalp acupuncture in addition to conventional rehabilitation training.The observation group was treated with synchronous scalp acupuncture and conventional rehabilitation training.Water swallowing test(WST),blood oxygen-saturation change amplitude,mini-mental state examination(MMSE),and standardized swallowing assessment(SSA)were assessed before treatment,after 2 weeks of treatment,and at follow-ups at week 4 and week 6.The effective rate was calculated based on the change in the WST grading after 2 weeks of treatment.Results:After 2 weeks of treatment,there was an insignificant difference in the total effective rate between the two groups(P>0.05),but the inter-group difference in the cured plus markedly effective rate was significant(P<0.01).The intra-group differences in the WST grading,blood oxygen-saturation change amplitude,and the scores of MMSE and SSA were significant among the 4 time points in the two groups(P<0.01).At follow-up at week 6,the WST grading and SSA score in the observation group were superior to those in the control group(P<0.01).Conclusion:Both intervention protocols can improve the swallowing function,physical function,and psychological status;the observation group's intervention is better than that of the control group in improving swallowing function.
