Objective To gain insights into the biological characteristics of different populations of Culex tritaeniorhynchus within and around the Yellow Sea wetland from the perspective of the occurrence of resistance, we investigated the levels of resistance to deltamethrin and kdr gene mutation in the wetland and its peripheral areas. Methods Specimens were collected from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations at two monitoring sites in the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area, and also from two populations in Yancheng City and the Liuhe District of Nanjing, and the resistance of these mosquitoes to deltamethrin was determined using the CDC biotest bottle method. For each concentration of deltamethrin assessed, a random subset of exposed specimens was selected for amplification of the kdr gene fragment, followed by Sanger sequencing to identify and analyze resistance-associated mutations. Results The LC50 levels of deltamethrin among mosquitoes from the four populations in Luhe, Yancheng, the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and the Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area were 2.048 5, 7.798 2, 3.473 3, and 17.695 5 mg/mL, respectively, with corresponding concentrations of deltamethrin ranging from 0.005 to 5.000,0.050 to 50.000,0.050 to 25.000 and 0.050 to 50.000 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges of the KT50 values were 11.76-107.43, 67.05-216.30,29.77-107.43 and 28.40-329.51 min; the 1-h knockdown rates were 34.58%-99.15%, 9.52%-43.80%, 55.09%-73.01%, and 10.09%-68.07%; and the 24-h mortality rates were 12.15%-67.52%,9.52%-79.56%,13.17%-82.21%, and 11.01%-78.99%, respectively. With respect to kdr gene mutation, we assayed a total of 63,70,59, and 57 mosquitoes for the four populations, for which we detected L1014F mutation frequencies of 14.29%, 35.00%, 20.34%, and 31.58%, respectively, with a majority of these mutations being heterozygous for resistance. In addition, five adult mosquitoes were identified has having synonymous mutations at site 1011[i. e. , AAT(asparagine)mutation to AAC(asparagine)]. Conclusions Our findings revealed the clear resistance of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus to deltamethrin in the Yancheng region of the Yellow Sea wetland, and the resistance phenotype and kdr frequency of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment were comparable to those of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment, thereby indicating that the resistance of different populations of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was homogeneous under the pressure of different insecticide selection within and around the wetland. However, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied.

TAFRO syndrome is a systemic inflammatory disease with unknown etiology.It has low incidence rate and progresses rapidly,which poses a significant challenge for clinicians to make a timely diagnosis and provide reasonable treatment.This article retrospectively analyzed a 65-year-old male patient with iMCD-TAFRO admitted to Minhang Hospital,Fudan University,and visited the Department of Nephrology due to bilateral lower limb edema.The patient exhibited systemic edema,fever,and multiple enlarged lymph nodes.A comprehensive examination showed thrombocytopenia,renal dysfunction,elevated CRP levels,multiple serosal fluid accumulations,and bone marrow reticulin fibrosis.For further diagnosis and treatment,he visited the Hematology Clinic of Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University.Based on the clinical manifestations,the diagnosis of TAFRO syndrome was considered.After further lymph node pathological consultation,the diagnosis was confirmed as idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease(iMCD)-TAFRO syndrome.Later,the patient was transferred to the hematology department of Minhang Hospital,Fudan University.After 15 days of treatment with methylprednisolone,cyclosporine A,rituximab,and thrombopoietin,there was no significant improvement in the condition.Due to personal reasons,the patient discontinued further treatment and passed away 2 weeks later.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of transcatheter arterial embolization(TAE)in the treatment of refractory bleeding caused by head,neck,and maxillofacial trauma.Methods:The clinical data of 26 patients with refractory bleeding caused by head,neck and maxillofacial trauma who were treated with TAE in The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and The Third People's Hospital of Henan Province were analyzed retrospectively,including 16 males and 10 females,with an average age of 57.96±15.52 years.All patients were treated with TAE because of the poor effect of medication,packing,and other measures and repeated bleeding.The clinical data,operation success rate,effective hemostasis rate,30-day clinical success rate,and postoperative complica-tions were analyzed.The patients were followed up for 3 to 6 months.Results:The operation success rate of TAE was 100%.The bleed-ing symptoms of all patients were effectively controlled,and the effective hemostasis rate was 100%.The hemoglobin level was in-creased from(96.21±12.42)g/L before operation to(111.38±7.70)g/L at 3 days after operation(P<0.001).After operation,3 pa-tients had slight swelling,pain,or skin color changes in the head,neck,and maxillofacial region,which were effectively relieved or dis-appeared after symptomatic treatment;2 patients died of severe traumatic brain injury and cerebral edema.No serious complications such as cerebral infarction occurred in any patients.There was no rebleeding in any patients within 3 to 6 months of post-discharge follow-up.Conclusion:TAE has definite curative effect and good safety for refractory bleeding caused by head,neck,and maxillofa-cial trauma,and has high clinical application value.

To explore the variation laws of volatile oil during the extraction process of Artemisiae Argyi Folium and its impact on the quality of the medicinal solution, as well as to achieve precise control of the extraction process, this study employed headspace solid phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(HS-SPME-GC-MS) in combination with multiple light scattering techniques to conduct a comprehensive analysis, identification, and characterization of the changes in volatile components and the physical properties of the medicinal solution during the extraction process. A total of 82 volatile compounds were identified using the HS-SPME-GC-MS technique, including 21 alcohols, 15 alkenes, 14 ketones, 9 acids, 6 aldehydes, 5 phenols, 3 esters, and 9 other types of compounds. At different extraction time points(15, 30, 45, and 60 min), 71, 72, 64, and 44 compounds were identified in the medicinal solution, respectively. It was observed that the content of volatile components gradually decreased with the extension of extraction time. Through multivariate statistical analysis, four compounds with significant differences during different extraction time intervals were identified, namely 1,8-cineole, terpinen-4-ol, 3-octanone, and camphor. RESULTS:: from multiple light scattering techniques indicated that at 15 minutes of extraction, the transmittance of the medicinal solution was the lowest(25%), the particle size was the largest(0.325-0.350 nm), and the stability index(turbiscan stability index, TSI) was the highest(0-2.5). With the extension of extraction time, the light transmittance of the medicinal solution improved, stability was enhanced, and the particle size decreased. These laws of physicochemical property changes provide important basis for the control of Artemisiae Argyi Folium extraction process. In addition, the changes in the bioactivity of Artemisiae Argyi Folium extracts during the extraction process were investigated through mouse writhing tests and antimicrobial assays. The results indicated that the analgesic and antimicrobial effects of the medicinal solution were strongest at the 15-minute extracting point. In summary, the findings of this study demonstrate that the content of volatile oil in Artemisiae Argyi Folium extracts gradually decreases with the extension of extraction time, and the variation in volatile oil content directly influences the physicochemical properties and pharmacological efficacy of the medicinal solution. This discovery provides important scientific reference for the optimization of Artemisiae Argyi Folium extraction processes and the development and application of process analytical technologies.

Acute lung injury(ALI) is a critical clinical condition primarily characterized by refractory hypoxemia and infiltration of inflammatory cells in lung tissue, which can progress into a more severe form known as acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS). Immune cells and inflammatory cytokines play important roles in the progression of the disease. Due to its unclear pathogenesis and the lack of effective clinical treatments, ALI is associated with a high mortality rate and severely affects patients' quality of life, making the search for effective therapeutic agents particularly urgent. Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, the dried root of the perennial herb Panax ginseng from the Araliaceae family, contains active ingredients such as saponins and polysaccharides, which possess various pharmacological effects including anti-tumor activity, immune regulation, and metabolic modulation. In recent years, studies have shown that ginsenosides exhibit notable effects in reducing inflammation, ameliorating epithelial and endothelial cell injury, and providing anticoagulant action, indicating their comprehensive role in alleviating lung injury. This review summarizes the pathogenesis of ALI and the molecular mechanisms through which ginsenosides act at different stages of ALI development. The aim is to provide a scientific reference for the development of ginsenoside-based drugs targeting ALI, as well as a theoretical basis for the clinical application of Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma in the treatment of ALI.
