ObjectiveTo explore the effect of the medical-community linkage model on activities of daily living, psychological status and motor function of stroke patients in the community. MethodsA total of 60 stroke patients admitted to two community health service centers and their affiliated stations in Fengtai District, Beijing, from January, 2024 to August, 2025 were enrolled and randomly divided into control group (n = 30) and intervention group (n = 30). The control group received routine medicine, dietary care and rehabilitation management, while the intervention group underwent rehabilitation with the medical-community linkage model, for twelve weeks. They were assessed with modified Barthel Index (MBI), Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) and Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) before and after intervention. ResultsAfter intervention, the MBI, HAMA, HAMD and FMA scores of patients improved in both groups (|t| > 5.599, P < 0.001), and improved more in the intervention group than in the control group (P < 0.05), except MBI. The HAMA and HAMD scores of family members decreased in both groups (|t| > 10.333, P < 0.001), and decreased more in the intervention group than in the control group (t > 5.681, P < 0.001). ConclusionThe medical-community linkage model can further improve the motor function of stroke patients in community, as well as the psychological status of both patients and their family members.

The crosstalk between macrophages and bone marrow mesen chymal stem cells （BMSCs） plays a vital role in regulating tendon-bone healing. Based on the traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） theory that the kidney governs the bones and generates marrow， yin-nourishing and kidney-tonifying Chinese medicines can promote the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and the M1-to-M2 polarization of macrophages， thereby facilitating tendon-bone healing. A variety of related medicinal monomers （such as diosgenin and oleanolic acid）， extracts and effective fractions （such as artificial tiger bone powder and total flavonoids of Drynaria fortunei ）， as well as compound prescriptions （such as Liuwei dihuang pill， Xujin jiegu decoction and Duhuo jisheng decoction）， can modulate the crosstalk between macrophages and BMSCs by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin， nuclear factor kappa-B， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin and transforming growth factor-β/Smad signaling pathways. They further exert anti-inflammatory， antioxidant and osteogenic effects to effectively accelerate tendon-bone healing. However， current evidence was limited to animal experiments exhibiting such as limitations insufficent alignment between animal models and clinical injury types， research focusing mostly on single signaling pathways， and unclear core active ingredients. Future studies shall optimize animal models and carry out large-sample randomized controlled trials， clarify the interactive networks of multiple signaling pathways， and isolate the core active substances of yin-nourishing and kidney-tonifying Chinese medicines， so as to advance the precise application of traditional Chinese medicines.

Objective Through reviewing the herbs,medical books and classic prescriptions of the past dynasties,the herbal examination of Gypsum fibrosum and its analogs was carried out to clarify the relationship between them.The qualitative analysis was carried out by single-point Raman,infrared,near infrared and XRD techniques,the quantitative analysis of the main components was carried out by EDTA titration and Raman surface scanning technique,the elemental analysis was carried out by ICP-OES,and the differences between gypsum and argillite were observed by scanning electron microscope.Results Gypsum fibrosum is mixed with marble,feldspar,north cold-water stone,south cold-water stone and xuanjing stone and so on.Before the Ming Dynasty,there was no differentiation between soft and anhydrite,and after the Ming Dynasty,it was clear that gypsum was soft gypsum and feldspar was anhydrite;in modern times,marble is also made to be gypsum for medicinal use;Feldspar is anhydrite and is no longer made to be used for medicinal use,north cold-water stone is red gypsum,and south cold-water stone is calcite.Gypsum,south coldwater stone is calcite.The peaks of argillite appeared to be buried in the Raman spectrum compared with Gypsum fibrosum,and the original profiles of both infrared and near-infrared were basically the same,and the near-infrared model established by the preprocessing method of the first-order derivatives plus vector normalization(5-point smoothing)could effectively differentiate between Gypsum fibrosum and its analogues,but it could not differentiate between argillite and Gypsum fibrosum with high content.XRD showed that there are differences in the relative intensities of the peaks of argillite and Gypsum fibrosum,and some XRD shows that there are differences in the relative intensities of the peaks of basalt and Gypsum fibrosum,and some of the peaks of basalt are characterized by impurities such as quartz,and the contents of trace elements such as Fe,Mn,Cr,Pb,Hg and As are higher in basalt.The peak shapes of XRD,Raman spectra,infrared spectra and near-infrared spectra of Gypsum fibrosum and calcined gypsum are closer but can still be distinguished,and the Ca content of calcined gypsum is higher than that of gypsum.Commercially available south chrysocolla and stalactite source are carbonate minerals calcite calcite.Spectral detection can not be distinguished,the trace element content is basically the same,but the traits are different.North chrysocolla(red gypsum)is higher than the Fe content of commercially available white gypsum.Raman surface scanning not only can be a qualitative and quantitative determination of minerals such as gypsum and other minerals,and the results of the content of the titration is basically similar,but also to determine the state of Gypsum fibrosum and calcined gypsum calcined water loss status and the degree of calcined gypsum.The results of Raman surface scanning are similar to the titration results.Conclusion This study can provide a scientific basis for the traceability of Gypsum fibrosum,and can better guide the clinical use of medicine and the rational use of resources.

Objective To investigate the relationship between plasma von willebrand factory-lytic protease (ADAMTS13) level and the severity of the disease and its prognostic value in patients with endometriosis (EMS). Methods 130 patients with EMS treated in the hospital from January 2019 to December 2022 were retrospectively selected. Plasma ADAMTS13 level was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),and its correla-tion with American Fertility Society (r-AFS) stage and endometriosis Health Status Scale (EHP-30) score was analyzed. The 1-year prognosis was recorded,and the risk factors of poor prognosis were analyzed by logistic regression. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was plotted to evaluate the predictive value of plasma ADAMTS13 levels in patients with EMS. Results The plasma ADAMTS13 level of EMS patients decreased signifi-cantly with the increase of r-AFS stage,and was negatively correlated with the score of EHP-30 (P<0.001). Multiple factors showed that low plasma ADAMTS13 level,bilateral location of pelvic lesions and high r-AFS stage were independent risk factors for poor prognosis (all P<0.05). ROC analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of plasma ADAMTS13 was 0.889 (cut-off point 13.315,sensitivity 0.931,specificity 0.690). Conclusion Plasma ADAMTS13 level is negatively correlated with the severity of EMS,and is an independent risk factor for poor prognosis of EMS patients,and has a certain predictive value for prognosis of EMS patients.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics and clinical effects of laparoscopic pneumovesical Cohen and laparoscopic Lich-Gregoir ureteral replantations for the treatment of primary obstructive megaloureter (POM) in children.Methods:A randomized controlled study was conducted.The clinical data of 51 children with unilateral POM admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2018 to October 2023 were collected.Random number table method was used in the selection of surgical methods.They were divided into the laparoscopic pneumovesical Cohen ureteral replantation group (group A, 22 cases) and the laparoscopic Lich-Gregoir ureteral replantation group (group B, 29 cases) according to the surgical method.The anterior-posterior diameter(APD), maximum ureteral diameter and differential renal function parameters on the affected side were measured by color Doppler ultrasound of the urinary system, and compared between and within the two groups before and after surgery.The operation time, blood loss and postoperative intubation time were compared between the two groups.The incidence of postoperative complications such as reflux, bladder spasm, urinary retention and urinary tract infection was recorded.The independent and paired sample t-tests were used for statistical analysis. Results:The operation time and hematuria duration of group B [(125.7±14.2) min, (1.5±0.6) d] were significantly shorter than those of group A [(142.6±14.7) min, (2.8±0.7) d] (all P<0.05). The APD, maximum ureteral diameter, and differential renal function on the affected side of group A were (21.7±7.9) mm, (11.6±3.2) mm, and (28.2±4.9)% before surgery, and (10.3±4.5) mm, (6.0±2.0) mm and (43.8±4.4)% after surgery, respectively.The APD, maximum ureteral diameter, and differential renal function on the affected side of group B were (21.1±5.6) mm, (11.3±4.6) mm, and (30.2±5.5)% before surgery, and (10.2±4.5) mm, (6.6±2.0) mm, and (42.4±5.2)% after surgery, respectively.There was no statistically significant difference in the values of APD, maximum ureteral diameter, and differential renal function before and after surgery between the two groups of children (all P>0.05). However, there were statistically significant differences in the values of APD, maximum ureteral diameter, and differential renal function before and after surgery between the same group of children (all P<0.01). No significant difference was found in intraoperative blood loss, postoperative intubation time, and postoperative complications between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Both surgical methods are effective in the treatment of POM in children.Laparoscopic Lich-Gregoir ureteral replantation has advantages of less operation time compared with laparoscopic pneumovesical Cohen ureteral replantation.

The incidence and mortality rates of malignant tumors continue to rise,which posing a serious threat to the physical and mental health of the global population,and becoming a significant scientific problem in urgent need of resolution.Tumor immuno-therapy,as a novel anti-tumor treatment,optimizes the treatment modalities for tumors.Currently,combination of immunotherapy with chemotherapy and targeted therapy has shown promising results in anti-tumor treatment.Traditional Chinese medicine is widely used in comprehensive anti-tumor treatments,demonstrating significant effectiveness and distinct advantages.Among them,monomeric saponins in Chinese herbal medicine exhibit remarkable anti-tumor effects with the notable advantages of high efficiency and low tox-icity.This has made them a focal point of research for many oncologists.Studies have revealed that a large number of monomeric sapo-nins from Chinese herbal medicine can directly or indirectly affect the functions of immune cells by regulating the innate immune sys-tem,adaptive immune system,and related immune cell factors.This enhances the immune cytotoxicity against tumor cells,thereby better exerting the anti-tumor immune effects.This paper summarizes the research findings on the anti-tumor effects of monomeric sapo-nins in recent years.It elaborates on the specific mechanisms by which monomeric saponins from Chinese herbal medicine regulate im-mune cells to exert anti-tumor effects.The aim of this paper is to provide new research perspectives for tumor immunotherapy,further harness the crucial role of traditional Chinese medicine in anti-tumor treatment,and propel the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,more and more studies have confirmed that ferroptosis of dopaminergic neurons is involved in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease,and verbascoside has been confirmed to have antioxidant,anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protective effect of verbascoside on Erastin-induced ferroptosis of MN9D cells and its action mechanism. METHODS:MN9D cells were divided into control group,model group(20 μmol/L Erastin group),Erastin+1 μg/mL verbascoside group,Erastin+5 μg/mL verbascoside group,and Erastin+10 μg/mL verbascoside group.MN9D cells were cultured in a CO2 incubator for 24 hours,then pretreated with different mass concentrations of verbascoside for 8 hours,and induced with 20 μmol/L Erastin for 24 hours.The levels of reduced glutathione,superoxide dismutase,total iron ion,and malondialdehyde were detected by ELISA.The expression of tyrosine hydroxylase was detected by immunohistochemistry.The expressions of tyrosine hydroxylase,nuclear factor erythrocyte-2-associated factor 2,heme oxygenase-1,and glutathione peroxidase 4 were detected by western blot assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the control group,the levels of reduced glutathione and superoxide dismutase were significantly decreased(P<0.05),and the levels of malondialdehyde and total iron ion were significantly increased in the model group(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the levels of reduced glutathione and superoxide dismutase were significantly increased(P<0.05),and the levels of malondialdehyde and total iron ionized water were decreased in 1,5,10 μg/mL verbascoside groups(P<0.05).(2)Compared with the control group,the area of tyrosine hydroxylase positive cells in the model group was significantly reduced(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the area of tyrosine hydroxylase positive cells was significantly increased in 1,5,10 μg/mL verbascoside groups(P<0.05).(3)Compared with the control group,the protein expressions of tyrosine hydroxylase,nuclear factor erythrocyte-2-associated factor 2,heme oxygenase-1 and glutathione peroxidase 4 were significantly decreased in the model group(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the protein expression levels of tyrosine hydroxylase,nuclear factor erythrocyte-2-associated factor 2,heme oxygenase-1,and glutathione peroxidase 4 were significantly increased in 1,5,10 μg/mL verbascoside groups(P<0.05).The results suggested that verbascoside could inhibit Erastin-induced ferroptosis in MN9D cells,possibly by activating nuclear factor erythrocyte-2-associated factor 2/heme oxygenase-1/glutathione peroxidase 4 pathway.
