Objective:To compare the differences in chemical compositions before and after processing by different processing methods; To optimize the processing method of Atractylodes lancea Rhizoma.Methods:Atractylodes lancea Rhizoma was processed by stir-frying with bran and treating with rice washing water. The volatile and non-volatile components of raw Atractylodes lancea Rhizoma, bran-fried Atractylodes lancea Rhizoma and rice washing water treated Atractylodes lancea Rhizome were qualitatively analyzed by headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-GC-MS) and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-electrostatic field orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS), and the differences in chemical composition before and after processing were compared.Results:The volatile components of the three different products were determined to have 18 common components, such as agarospirol, β-eudesol, etc. In addition, 86 non-volatile components were determined. The peak area response value of atractylodin, the index component prescribed by pharmacopoeia, decreased after processing, but there was little difference in bran stir-frying and rice-washed water frying.Conclusions:Different processing methods have certain effects on the chemical composition of Atractylodes lancea Rhizoma. Among them, the bran-frying method is superior in improving the quality of preparations, reducing production costs and improving production efficiency. The bran-fried product can be used as raw material for preparation production.

Automatic classification of medical questions is of great significance in improving the quality and efficiency of online medical services, and belongs to the task of intent recognition. Joint entity recognition and intent recognition perform better than single task models. Currently, most publicly available medical text intent recognition datasets lack entity annotation, and manual annotation of these entities requires a lot of time and manpower. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a medical text classification model, bidirectional encoder representation based on transformer-recurrent convolutional neural network-entity-label-semantics (BRELS), which integrates medical entity label semantics. This model firstly utilizes an adaptive fusion mechanism to absorb prior knowledge of medical entity labels, achieving local feature enhancement. Then in global feature extraction, a lightweight recurrent convolutional neural network (LRCNN) is used to suppress parameter growth while preserving the original semantics of the text. The ablation and comparison experiments are conducted on three public medical text intent recognition datasets to validate the performance of the model. The results show that F1 score reaches 87.34%, 81.71%, and 77.74% on each dataset, respectively. The results show that the BRELS model can effectively identify and understand medical terminology, thereby effectively identifying users' intentions, which can improve the quality and efficiency of online medical services.

Objective : To investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) of PROS1 gene and recurrent spontaneous abortion(RSA) in Baotou Han population. Methods : 158 RSA patients and 158 control subjects were selected as the study subjects, and the activities of protein S, protein C and antithrombin-Ⅲ were measured. The rs13062355, rs6441600 and rs12634349 loci of PROS1 gene were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP). Non-conditional Logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation between three SNPs of PROS1 gene and the risk of RSA. Results : The protein S and antithrombin-Ⅲ activities of RSA patients decreased significantly(P<0.05). PROS1 SNP rs13062355 was associated with the risk of RSA under the dominant model: compared with genotype TT, patients with CT+CC genotypes had a reduced risk of RSA(OR=0.398, 95%CI: 0.249-0.638); SNP rs6441600 and rs12634349 were not associated with the risk of RSA(P>0.05). In the haplotypes constructed by PROS1 rs13062355, rs6441600 and rs12634349, Haplotype C-C-C was statistically different between the two groups(P<0.05). The third-order interaction model rs13062355-rs6441600-rs12634349 was associated with the risk of RSA. Conclusion PROS1 SNP rs13062355 may be associated with the risk of RSA in Han women in Baotou area. Haplotype C-C-C of PROS1 rs13062355, rs6441600 and rs12634349 reduces the risk of RSA. The third-order model rs13062355-rs6441600-rs12634349 interaction has a synergistic effect on the occurrence of RSA.

BACKGROUND:Linagliptin exhibits the capacity to regulate macrophage polarization,shifting them from the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype towards the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype. This alteration results in a dampened release of inflammatory mediators,thereby mitigating local inflammation.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of linagliptin on macrophage polarization,osteoclast activation,and inflammatory osteolysis elicited by wear particles.METHODS:(1) Cell experiments:For macrophage polarization,RAW264.7 cells were cultured and divided into four groups:the control group received high-glucose culture medium;the M1-induced group received M1-inducing culture medium (high-glucose culture medium containing 100 ng/mL lipopolysaccharide and 20 ng/mL interferon-γ) to simulate an inflammatory environment;the low-and high-dose linagliptin groups were treated with 50 and 200 nmol/L linagliptin,respectively,for 4 hours before exposure to M1-inducing culture medium. After 24 hours of macrophage polarization induction,immunofluorescence staining and RT-PCR were performed. For osteoclast activation,RAW264.7 cells were cultured and divided into four groups:the control group was cultured with high-glucose culture medium,the osteoclast-induced group and low-and high-dose linagliptin groups were subjected to osteoclast induction. After osteoclast formation,cells were treated with linagliptin (50 and 200 nmol/L) for 3 days. Subsequently,cell tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining and RT-PCR were performed. (2) Animal experiments:Twenty-four male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into four groups:sham operation group,model group,low-dose linagliptin group,and high-dose linagliptin group. The model group,low-dose linagliptin group,and high-dose linagliptin group were induced to establish a cranial bone resorption model by injecting titanium particle suspension onto the surface of the skull. Starting from the 2nd day after modeling,the low-and high-dose linagliptin groups were orally administered linagliptin (2 and 10 mg/kg,respectively) once daily. After modeling for 3 weeks,serum macrophage polarization marker protein and inflammatory factor levels were detected;skull samples were collected for micro-CT scanning,bone parameter analysis,and hematoxylin-eosin staining to evaluate osteolysis and morphological changes.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Cell experiments:Both low and high doses of linagliptin significantly suppressed M1 polarization while promoting M2 polarization compared to the M1-induced group (P<0.01). Notably,the high-dose group exhibited a more pronounced inhibitory effect (P<0.01). Inflammatory factor mRNA expression was elevated in the M1-induced group compared with the control group (P<0.01),whereas inflammatory factor mRNA expression was significantly lower in the low-and high-dose linagliptin groups compared with the M1-induced group (P<0.01). There was a significant upregulation of mRNA expression of osteoclast functional markers in the osteoclast-induced group compared with the control group (P<0.01). Conversely,both low and high doses of linagliptin led to a substantial downregulation of mRNA expression of these markers compared with the osteoclast-induced group (P<0.01),with the high-dose group exhibiting a more pronounced reduction. (2) Animal experiments:Titanium particle implantation induced cranial bone resorption damage in mice. Treatment with linagliptin effectively mitigated this bone resorption,with the high-dose group showing superior efficacy. To conclude,linagliptin has been shown to modulate macrophage polarization,inhibit osteoclast activation,and have a protective effect on the skeletal system.

OBJECTIVE To know about the working mode and human resource status of pharmacy intravenous admixture services （PIVAS） in national medical institutions. METHODS Through questionnaire survey， the national PIVAS was invited to fill out questionnaire and statistical analysis was performed on the effective sample data related to PIVAS working mode and human resources in the questionnaire. RESULTS In this study， 761 PIVAS from 722 medical institutions of 29 provinces were involved in the questionnaire survey， with 471 valid questionnaires for working mode and 441 valid questionnaires for human resources survey. In terms of working mode， among 471 PIVAS， 292 PIVAS （62.0%） were in pharmacist-alone mode， and 176 PIVAS （37.4%） were in pharmacist-nurse cooperative mode； there was no significant difference in the types of medical orders received by PIVAS between these two working modes except for the other medical orders （P＞0.05）. In terms of human resource setting， among 441 PIVAS， the average number of total staff of single PIVAS was 24（16，33）， including 11（6，19） pharmacists， 7（2，13） nursing staff， and 3（1，5） workers； there was a statistically significant difference in the number of personnel among three groups （P＜ 0.01）. The per capita income of PIVAS respondents in 2019 was [7.9（4.8，10.7）]×104 yuan， and in 2021 it was [8.8（5.8，11.7）]× 104 yuan， with an increase of 9.0% compared to 2019. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant （P＜ 0.01）. CONCLUSIONS Medical institutions’ PIVAS in China had not fully implemented the pharmacist-alone work model， and some medical institutions had chosen a pharmacist-nurse cooperative mode. It is suggested that relevant departments formulate corresponding qualification requirements and training standards for nursing personnel as soon as possible based on sufficient research on PIVAS’s demand for nursing professionals.

OBJECTIVE To know about the pharmacy intravenous admixture charge and operation balance of pharmacy intravenous admixture services （PIVAS） in national medical institutions. METHODS Using questionnaire survey method， the national PIVAS leaders were invited to fill in the questionnaire， investigation and statistical analysis of the drug dispensing charge standard and the income and expenditure situations of PIVAS nationwide were conducted. RESULTS A total of 761 PIVAS completed the questionnaire， among which 466 PIVAS （61.2%） had already started implementing pharmacy intravenous admixture charge， mainly in tertiary hospitals. The charge standards for chemotherapy drugs and parenteral nutrition solutions were relatively high， while the standards for packaged drugs were the lowest， with differences in charge standards among provinces（P＜0.05）. Among the 25 provinces that reported annual drug preparation fee revenue， Hubei had the highest revenue in both 2019 and 2021. In 2019， the number of PIVAS with a balance of payments was more than that of PIVAS with an imbalance of payments， but the number of PIVAS with an imbalance of payments in 2021 exceeded the number of PIVAS with a balance of payments （P＜0.05）； among them， eight provinces were unbalanced in 2019 and 2021， such as Tianjin， Chongqing， Guizhou， etc. CONCLUSIONS PIVAS charge standards of the surveyed medical institutions in all provinces are not unified. It is suggested to improve the charge standard further， formulate the charge adjustment cycle， and promote a sustainable development of PIVAS.
