Bile-processed Coptidis Rhizoma(B-pCR), first documented in Shengji Zonglu, is a unique processed products of Coptidis Rhizoma(CR) characterized by "mutual enhancement processing" and "enhancing the cold property of cold-natured herbs". Pig bile can enhance the bitter and cold properties of CR, yielding potent effects in purging excess fire from the liver and gallbladder. The processing increases the dissolution of alkaloids such as berberine, coptisine, and palmatine, while introducing bile acids from pig bile, including taurine-type and glycine-type cholic acids. This enhances its pharmacological effects, such as antipyretic activity, regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism disorders, and intestinal absorption. Traditional processing techniques and quality standards for B-pCR are outlined in the Shanghai Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) Decoction Pieces Processing Standard and the Gansu TCM Processing Standard. However, incomplete specifications for critical process parameters and quality criteria significantly impact its production and clinical application. A review of research over the past two decades on the processing history, process optimization, quality evaluation, material basis, and changes in pharmacological effects and properties of B-pCR reveals that the pretreatment method and dosage of pig bile, and processing temperature are key factors influencing its quality. Furthermore, current quality standards lack specific indicators. Additionally, the enhancement of the cold property and medicinal efficacy direction of B-pCR is not only associated with changes in alkaloid groups but also depend on the synergistic effects of bile acids. This review can provide insights for improving the quality evaluation system of B-pCR.

ObjectiveThe widespread adoption of portable fundus cameras for primary care and community screening is hindered by limitations in current autofocus(AF) technologies. Image-based methods relying on sharpness evaluation require iterative searches, resulting in slow convergence, while projection-based techniques are susceptible to optical artifacts and calibration errors. To address these challenges, this study introduces a novel AF system based on direct wavefront sensing, designed to deliver simultaneous high speed, high precision, and operational robustness within the compact form factor essential for portable ophthalmic devices. MethodsOur approach fundamentally reimagines the AF process by directly measuring the ocular wavefront aberration. We developed a custom portable fundus camera integrating a miniaturized Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWS) into the optical path. An 850 nm laser diode projects a point source onto the retina via oblique illumination to minimize corneal reflections. Light scattered from this spot carries the eye’s refractive error through the imaging optics and is directed to the SHWS, positioned at a plane optically conjugate to the primary color CMOS imaging sensor. A microlens array within the SHWS samples the incident wavefront, generating a pattern of focal spots on a CCD. Real-time centroid analysis of these spots provides a map of local wavefront slopes. These measurements are processed through a singular value decomposition (SVD) algorithm to fit a Zernike polynomial basis set, enabling real-time reconstruction of the wavefront phase. The defocus component (S) is extracted from the second-order Zernike coefficients, providing a direct, quantitative measure of the refractive error in diopters. This value serves as a precise error signal in a closed-loop control system, which commands a voice-coil actuated focusing lens to its null position in a single, deterministic step, eliminating the need for iterative search algorithms. ResultsComprehensive evaluation demonstrated the system’s high performance. Testing on a calibrated model eye (OEMI-7) established a highly linear relationship between the computed defocus S and the focusing lens position across a ±20 Diopter (D) compensation range, achievable within a 5 mm mechanical travel. The system achieved a focusing precision of 0.08 D, corresponding to an 18-fold improvement over a conventional projection spot-size method tested under identical conditions. The total focus acquisition time, encompassing wavefront measurement, computation, and lens actuation, averaged under 0.5 s. Clinical validation with 25 human volunteers (50 eyes, refractive range -15 D to +10 D) confirmed practical efficacy. The wavefront-sensing AF succeeded in 92% of attempts with a mean time of 0.5 s, substantially outperforming a projection-based benchmark which achieved only a 32% success rate with an average time of 4.25 s. The system provided instantaneous directional guidance and maintained stability during minor ocular movements. Objective assessment of image quality, via amplitude contrast of retinal vasculature, showed consistent and significant enhancement following AF correction across the entire tested diopter range. ConclusionThis work successfully implements and validates a direct wavefront-sensing autofocus paradigm for portable fundus cameras. By directly quantifying and compensating for the optical defocus aberration, this method bypasses the fundamental limitations of image-processing and projection-based techniques, enabling rapid, precise, and deterministic diopter compensation. The developed system delivers an exceptional combination of a wide operational range (±20 D), high accuracy (0.08 D), fast convergence (0.5 s), and a compact physical footprint. This technology provides a practical and high-performance focusing solution capable of enhancing the reliability, throughput, and diagnostic utility of portable retinal imaging in large-scale screening applications. Future efforts will be directed towards system cost optimization and performance adaptation for diverse ocular conditions.

Objective To explore the impact of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring on heart-focused anxiety in patients with tachyarrhythmias. Methods A cross-sectional study design was conducted. 305 patients with tachyarrhythmias who attended the department of cardiology of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University in Shanghai from July 2025 to December 2025 were enrolled as the research subjects, and clinical data of patients were collected. Univariate analysis and multiple stepwise regression analysis were used to analyze the impact of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring on patients’ heart-focused anxiety. Results The mean score of heart-focused anxiety in the 305 patients with tachyarrhythmias was 33.16±9.70. Among them, 104(34.10%) patients used wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring. The results of univariate analysis and multiple stepwise regression showed that the use of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring was an influencing factor for heart-focused anxiety (P<0.05), and the patients who used wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring had a significantly lower level of heart-focused anxiety (P<0.05). Conclusions The use of wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring is associated with a lower level of heart-focused anxiety in patients with tachyarrhythmias. Medical staff can guide patients to rationally use wearable devices in assisting disease monitoring on the basis of evaluating their needs and device operation capabilities.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Hydromorphone hydrochloride extended-release tablets (HHERT) in the treatment of chronic cancer-related pain (CCRP) in real-world settings, and to explore the effectiveness and reasons for rotation patterns between HHERT and other opioid drugs (OOD). METHODS Data were retrospectively collected from 142 CCRP patients receiving strong opioid therapy at Fujian Cancer Hospital from January to December 2025. Patients were divided into the continuous HHERT group and the drug rotation group based on medication status. The efficacy and incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. The drug rotation group was further subdivided into the OOD-HHERT group (rotated from OOD to HHERT) and the HHERT-OOD group (rotated from HHERT to OOD). Dose conversion coefficients were compared with guideline recommendations, and pain relief status, rotation types and reasons for rotation were analyzed between the two subgroups. RESULTS In the 142 CCRP patients, 107 achieved pain relief, with an overall response rate of 75.35%. After 4 weeks of treatment, there was a statistically significant difference in efficacy between the continuous HHERT group and the drug rotation group ( P <0.05). A total of 110 adverse reactions occurred in 86 patients, with an overall adverse reactions of 77.46%, there were no statistically significant differences between the continuos HHERT group and the drug rotation group in the incidence of drug adverse reactions ( P >0.05). 99 experienced opioid rotation, with an overall rotation rate of 69.72%. The pain relief rates after rotation were 74.36% in the HHERT-OOD group and 73.33% in the OOD-HHERT group, indicating comparable efficacy ( P >0.05). In 31 patients (31.31%), the dose conversion coefficients did not conform to guideline recommendations. There was a significant difference in the distribution of rotation types between the two groups ( P <0.05): the HHERT-OOD group was dominated by route of administration changes, while the OOD-HHERT group was dominated by unchanged route of administration. The proportion of rotations due to restricted route of administration and drug supply shortage was significantly higher in the HHERT-OOD group than that in the OOD-HHERT group ( P <0.05); the proportion of rotations due to inadequate analgesic effect was significantly higher in the OOD-HHERT group than that in the HHERT-OOD group ( P <0.05). CONCLUSIONS In real-world settings, both HHERT and opioid rotation strategies demonstrate favorable analgesic effects in the treatment of CCRP. Rotation patterns are primarily driven by practical factors such as inadequate analgesic effect and restricted route of administration. It is necessary to standardize dose conversion standards and indications for opioid rotation to improve individualized cancer pain management.

Objective:To analyze the differences in emergency rescue service capacities between county-level hospitals in Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces, and propose targeted improvement suggestions.Methods:Cluster sampling was employed, with representative county-level hospitals recommended by provincial hospital alliances in Zhejiang and Jiangsu. Emergency departments voluntarily submitted data, resulting in 24 hospitals from Zhejiang and 34 from Jiangsu. Data were collected through the China County-Level Hospital Emergency Service Capability Evaluation System. Differences between provinces were analyzed. Spearman correlation analysis explored relationships between multidimensional indicators, and multivariate logistic regression identified factors influencing hospital grade B++ and above.Results:In terms of department scale, Jiangsu had a larger emergency department area (4 853 m 2vs. 1 927 m 2, P<0.001), more beds of comprehensive inpatient wards in the emergency department (25.5 beds vs. 5.5 beds, P=0.011), and higher scores for the ratio of emergency department area to beds (4.8 vs. 3.4, P=0.005) than Zhejiang. In terms of staffing, Jiangsu had a higher proportion of doctors with master's degrees or above (13.8% vs. 0.0%, P<0.001), a higher proportion of frontline emergency medical staff with over three years of clinical experience (100.0% vs. 91.5%, P=0.001), and more doctors (19 vs. 15, P=0.039) and nurses (46 vs. 32, P=0.039). In terms of quality and safety and medical service capacity, Zhejiang had a higher severe trauma resuscitation success rate (92.9% vs. 83.75%, P=0.003), annual emergency surgery volume (1 002 vs. 428, P=0.015), and number of emergency surgery procedures (125 vs. 42, P=0.027), but Jiangsu had a shorter emergency room stay time (87.5 min vs. 136.2 min, P=0.029). In terms of informatization, Zhejiang outperformed Jiangsu in all indicators, especially in patient information interconnection and sharing (100.0% vs. 82.4%, P=0.030) and in-hospital diagnosis and treatment timeline (91.7% vs. 73.5%, P=0.043). Correlation analysis showed that the total specialty scale score was significantly positively correlated with the in-hospital emergency rescue service capacity score ( r=0.576) and the staffing score ( r=0.455). The total evaluation score was significantly positively correlated with the informatization total score ( r=0.397) and the pre-hospital emergency rescue service capacity score ( r=0.322). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that the emergency rescue service capacity score was significantly positively correlated with hospital grade ( B=1.431, P=0.03, OR=4.185, 95% CI:1.152-15.205). For every 1-unit increase in the emergency department area ( B=0.002, P=0.05), the probability of a hospital being upgraded to B++ or above increased by 0.2% ( OR=1.002, 95% CI:1.000-1.004). Conclusions:Both provinces exhibit distinct advantages in emergency department development. Departmental scale and configuration significantly impact emergency service capabilities, while staffing and quality management constitute core elements for improvement. Informatization construction notably enhances emergency service efficiency and quality.

Objective:To understand the burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and its risk factors in Fujian Province during 1990-2019.Methods:Based on the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019, the incidence rate, mortality rate and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of CKD in Fujian from 1990 to 2019 were calculated. An age-period-cohort model was used to estimate the effects of age, period, and cohort on age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR), age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR), and age-standardized DALY rate (ASDR) of CKD. Comparative risk assessment theory was used to calculate the potential attributable DALYs due to risk factors.Results:In 2019, the ASIR of CKD in Fujian exceeded the national average. The ASIR of CKD showed an increasing trend from 1990 to 2019, but the ASMR and ASDR of CKD exhibited decreasing trends during the same period. In 2019, the ASIR of CKD was higher in women than in men, while the ASMR and ASDR were higher in men than in women. Age-period-cohort analysis indicated that ASIR, ASMR, and ASDR of CKD increased with age. The period effect for ASIR decreased first before increase, while the period effect for ASMR and ASDR displayed fluctuating trends. The cohort effect showed an upward trajectory for ASIR, but a stable status before downward trajectories for ASMR and ASDR. Compared with 1990, except the increase in the ASDR of CKD attributed to high BMI and high temperatures, the ASDR of CKD attributed to other risk factors all showed decreases in 2019. However, the ASDR attributed to high sodium intake remained higher compared with the global average.Conclusion:The burden of CKD remains heavy in Fujian, and it is necessary to reduce the attributable risk factors, such as high sodium intake and high BMI, to address this problem.
