The study investigated the intrinsic changes in material basis of Angelicae Sinensis Radix during wine processing by headspace-gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry(HS-GC-IMS), headspace-solid phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(HS-SPME-GC-MS), and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-orbitrap mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS) combined with chemometrics. HS-GC-IMS fingerprints of Angelicae Sinensis Radix before and after wine processing were established to analyze the variation trends of volatile components and characterize volatile small-molecule substances before and after processing. Principal component analysis(PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) were employed for differentiation and difference analysis. A total of 89 volatile components in Angelicae Sinensis Radix were identified by HS-GC-IMS, including 14 unsaturated hydrocarbons, 16 aldehydes, 13 ketones, 9 alcohols, 16 esters, 6 organic acids, and 15 other compounds. HS-SPME-GC-MS detected 118 volatile components, comprising 42 unsaturated hydrocarbons, 11 aromatic compounds, 30 alcohols, 8 alkanes, 6 organic acids, 4 ketones, 7 aldehydes, 5 esters, and 5 other volatile compounds. UPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS identified 76 non-volatile compounds. PCA revealed distinct clusters of raw and wine-processed Angelicae Sinensis Radix samples across the three detection methods. Both PCA and OPLS-DA effectively discriminated between the two groups, and 145 compounds(VIP>1) were identified as critical markers for evaluating processing quality, including 4-methyl-3-penten-2-one, ethyl 2-methylpentanoate, and 2,4-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane detected by HS-GC-IMS, angelic acid, β-pinene, and germacrene B detected by HS-SPME-GC-MS, and L-tryptophan, licoricone, and angenomalin detected by UPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS. In conclusion, the integration of the three detection methods with chemometrics elucidates the differences in the chemical material basis between raw and wine-processed Angelicae Sinensis Radix, providing a scientific foundation for understanding the processing mechanisms and clinical applications of wine-processed Angelicae Sinensis Radix.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between long-term glycemic control and cerebral infarction risk in patients with diabetes through a large-scale cohort study. METHODS: This prospective, community-based cohort study included 12,054 patients with diabetes. From 2006 to 2012, 38,272 fasting blood glucose (FBG) measurements were obtained from these participants. FBG trajectory patterns were generated using latent mixture modelling. Cox proportional hazards models were applied to assess the subsequent risk of cerebral infarction associated with different FBG trajectory patterns. RESULTS: At baseline, the mean age of the participants was 55.2 years. Four distinct FBG trajectories were identified based on FBG concentrations and their changes over the 6-year follow-up period. After a median follow-up of 6.9 years, 786 cerebral infarction events were recorded. Different trajectory patterns were associated with significantly varied outcome risks (Log-Rank P < 0.001). Compared with the low-stability group, Hazard Ratio ( HR) adjusted for potential confounders were 1.37 for the moderate-increasing group, 1.23 for the elevated-decreasing group, and 2.08 for the elevated-stable group. CONCLUSION Sustained high FBG levels were found to play a critical role in the development of ischemic stroke among patients with diabetes. Controlling FBG levels may reduce the risk of cerebral infarction.

Objective:To explore a simple emergency management method for elderly patients with sigmoid volvulus.Methods:The clinical data of 22 elderly patients (>70 years) with sigmoid volvulus from January 2020 to March 2024 in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with a self-made simple closed-loop enema decompression kit. The abdominal circumference, white blood cell count and C-reactive protein (CRP) before treatment and 12 h after tube placement were measured. The patients were followed for 3 months, and the recurrence was recorded. The key indexes on recurrence, including age, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification and procedure time, were compared. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between age, procedure time, pain level and gas/stool output within 30 min after tube placement.Results:All 22 patients successfully underwent transanal tube decompression. The procedure time ranged from 1 to 15 min. The gas and stool output within 30 min after tube placement was 600 to 2 100 ml, The rectal tube was retained for 2 to 6 d. Compared with before treatment, the abdominal circumference, white blood cell count and CRP 12 h after tube placement were significantly lower: (85.9 ± 9.6) cm vs. (94.5 ± 10.2) cm, (9.2 ± 2.1) ×10 9/L vs. (11.4 ± 2.5) ×10 9/L and (27.8 ± 22.6) mg/L vs. (46.2 ± 38.9) mg/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Four patients underwent elective surgery, while 18 were discharged smoothly after tube removal. No death occurred within 1 month after treatment. Five patients experienced recurrence 3 months after treatment, all were successfully retreated using the same method and discharged. There were no statistical differences in recurrence rates between aged ≥80 years and aged < 80 years patients, ASA class ≥ Ⅳ and ASA class Ⅲ patients, or procedure times ≤5 min and procedure times >5 min patients ( P>0.05). The gas/stool output within 30 min after tube placement was positively correlated with pain level (moderate/severe vs. mild) before tube placement ( r = 215.50, P = 0.015), but showed no significant correlation with age or procedure time ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The self-made simple closed-loop enema decompression kit provides a straightforward, economical and minimally invasive emergency treatment method for elderly patients with sigmoid volvulus. For patients at very high surgical risk, this kit can achieve decompression and volvulus reposition, even in cases of recurrence.
