ObjectiveThis paper aims to investigate the material basis of the anti-inflammatory efficacy and mechanism of action of Bushen Tongdu prescription （BSTDP）. MethodsThe chemical components of BSTDP and its blood-absorbed components in vivo were systematically identified by using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-linear ion trap-electrostatic field orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry （UPLC-LIT-Orbitrap-MS）. Network pharmacology was employed to screen blood-absorbed bioactive components and potential targets of this formula. A protein-protein interaction （PPI） network of core targets was constructed to conduct enrichment analysis. Molecular docking was further utilized to verify the binding affinity between key components and targets. The inflammatory model was established and verified in vivo by using a transgenic zebrafish Tg （mpx： GFP）. At three days post-fertilization （3 dpf）， larvae of zebrafish were randomly assigned to blank group， model group， positive drug dexamethasone acetate group （75 μmol·L^-1）， and BSTDP groups with low， medium， and high doses （500， 1 000， and 2 000 mg·L^-1）. The distribution and quantity of neutrophils in the yolk sac region were observed under a fluorescence microscope. The mRNA expression levels of key genes in the toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/myeloid differentiation factor 88 （MyD88）/nuclear factor kappa-B （NF-κB） signaling pathway and inflammatory factors including interleukin （IL）-1β， IL-6， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） were detected by Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. ResultsA total of 120 chemical components were identified in BSTDP， among which 26 original components were confirmed by using serum pharmacochemical methods. A total of 227 common targets linking rheumatoid arthritis （RA） and the blood-absorbed components were screened by network pharmacology. It is suggested that pseudobrucine， vomicine， sinapine， rehmannioside， cinnamyl alcohol glycoside， and methylephedrine exert anti-inflammatory effects by acting on core targets including protein kinase B1 （Akt1）， signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3）， tumor necrosis factor （TNF）， TLR4， mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 （MAPK14）， and phosphatidylinositol-4，5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit α （PIK3CA）， thereby modulating multiple signaling pathways such as TLR4 and NF-κB. In vivo verification in zebrafish demonstrates that the maximum tolerable concentration of Bushen Tongdu Formula is 2 000 mg·L^-1. Compared to those in the blank group， zebrafish in the model group showed a significantly higher number of neutrophils in the yolk sac region （P<0.01） and rising mRNA levels of TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB， TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β （P<0.01）. Compared to that in the model group， the number of neutrophils was significantly reduced in BSTDP groups with medium and high doses， as well as the dexamethasone acetate group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. There was no statistically significant difference in the low dose group. The mRNA expression levels of TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB， TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β were significantly down-regulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThis paper identifies the material basis of the efficacy of BSTDP， demonstrating that the formula can exert an anti-inflammatory effect through the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway. The results provide scientific experimental evidence for its further clinical application.

ObjectiveTo explore the quantity-quality transfer process of medicinal materials， decoction pieces and standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（Haliotis discus hannai） by analyzing the physical phase and compositional changes， so as to provide references for the effective control of its quality. MethodsA total of 20 batches of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai） from different habitats were collected and prepared into corresponding calcined products and standard decoction， and the content of CaCO₃ of the three samples were determined and the extract yield and transfer rate of CaCO₃ were calculated. The changes in elemental composition and their relative contents were investigated by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry（XRF）， X-ray diffraction（XRD） was used to study the changes in the phase compositions of the three samples and to establish their respective XRD specific chromatogram. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry（FTIR） was used to study the changes in the chemical composition and content changes of the three samples and to establish their respective FTIR specific chromatogram， while combining hierarchical cluster analysis（HCA）， principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA） to find the common and differential characteristics， in order to explore the quantity-quality transfer relationship in the preparation process of standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai）. ResultsThe CaCO₃ contents of the 20 batches of medicinal materials， decoction pieces and standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai） were 93.87%-98.95%， 96.02%-99.97% and 38.29%-51.96%， respectively， and the extract yield of standard decoction was 1.71%-2.37%， and the CaCO₃ transfer rate of decoction pieces-standard decoction was 0.68%-1.27%. XRF results showed that the elemental species and their relative contents contained in Haliotidis Concha and its calcined products had a high degree of similarity， and although there was no obvious difference in the elemental species contained in decoction pieces and standard decoction， the difference in the relative contents was obvious， which was mainly reflected in the decrease of the relative content of element Ca and the increase of the relative content of element Na. XRD results showed that Haliotidis Concha mainly contained CaCO₃ of aragonite and calcite， while calcined Haliotidis Concha only contained CaCO₃ of calcite， and standard decoction mainly contained CaCO₃ of calcite and Na₂CO₃ of natrite. FTIR results showed that there were internal vibrations of O-H， C-H， C=O， HCO₃^- and CO₃^2- groups in Haliotidis Concha， while O-H， HCO₃^- and CO₃^2- groups existed in the calcined products and standard decoction. ConclusionThe changes of Haliotidis Concha and calcined Haliotidis Concha are mainly the increase of CaCO₃ content， the transformation of CaCO₃ aragonite crystal form to calcite crystal form and the absence of organic components after calcination， and the changes of calcined products and standard decoction are mainly the decrease of CaCO₃ content and the increase of Na₂CO₃ relative content. The method established in the study is applicable to the quality control of the shellfish medicines-decoction pieces- standard decoction， which provides a new idea for the study of quality control of dispensing granules of shellfish medicines.

Objective To construct a mindfulness-based self-care intervention program for patients with chronic heart failure(CHF)and their caregivers based on binary disease management theory and explore its small-scale application effect.Methods A prospective study was conducted on 100 pairs of CHF patients admitted to our hospital and their caregivers from January 2024 to October 2024.After excluding those with invalid survey data,92 pairs were finally included and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group,each consisting of 46 pairs.The control group received routine nursing care,while the observation group received the mindfulness-based self-care program based on binary disease management theory in addition to routine nursing care.The Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA),Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD),Self Compassion Scale(SCS),and Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale(MAAS)were used to compare the anxiety,depression,self-care,and mindfulness levels of patients and caregivers at three time points:pre-intervention(T1),right post-intervention(T2),and one month post-intervention(T3).The Caregiver Positive Perception Scale(PAC)was used to evaluate the caregiver's positive perception at each time point.Results The HAMA and HAMD scores of patients and caregivers in the observation group were lower than those in the control group at T2 and T3,while the SCS scores were signifi-cantly higher(all P<0.05).Repeated-measures analysis of variance showed significant differences in HAMA,The mindfulness-based self-care intervention program based on binary disease management theory effectively reduces negative emotions in patients and caregivers,and improves mindfulness and self-care,showing clinical application potential.

Congenital orofacial cleft, the most common birth defect in the maxillofacial region, exhibits a wide range of prognosis depending on the severity of deformity and underlying etiology. Non-syndromic congenital orofacial clefts typically present with milder deformities and more favorable treatment outcomes, whereas syndromic congenital orofacial clefts often manifest with concomitant organ abnormalities, which pose greater challenges for treatment and result in poorer prognosis. This consensus provides an elaborate classification system for varying degrees of orofacial clefts along with corresponding diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines. Results serve as a crucial resource for families to navigate prenatal screening results or make informed decisions regarding treatment options while also contributing significantly to preventing serious birth defects within the development of population.

Objective To observe the value of advanced patient motion correction(APMC)technology for improving imaging quality of low-dose pediatric chest CT.Methods Ninety-six children who received low-dose chest CT scan were retrospectively enrolled.CT images were reconstructed using full reconstruction technique(FULL)or APMC for both lung window and mediastinal window.Then the imaging qualities were subjectively evaluated according to image clarity,degree of motion artifacts,sharpness of structural edges and overall quality.The indexes of objective evaluation of imaging quality included the mean CT values of unit density pixel within ROI on lung window and mediastinal window,the standard deviation of CT values(SDCT)representing image noise,as well as signal-to-noise ratio(SNR).Sobel operator edge detection was performed on images,recording the mean gray level(G)and the standard deviation of gray value in Sobel(SDsobel)within ROI.Comparisons were made between FULL reconstruction and corrected images with APMC reconstruction in terms of subjective and objective evaluations,as well as parameters obtained from Sobel output images.Results Compared to FULL reconstruction,APMC corrected images showed reduced motion artifacts,improved edge structure sharpness and enhanced overall image quality(all P＜0.05),while there was no significant difference of image clarity(P＞0.05).Meanwhile,with APMC reconstructions,the mean CT values,SDCT on lung window and SDCT on mediastinal window increased(all P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference for the mean CT values on mediastinal window(P＞0.05),and SNR on both lung window and mediastinal window decreased(both P＜0.05).Besides,for Sobel output images,compared to FULL reconstruction,APMC reconstruction had increased G and SDsobel on both lung window and mediastinal window(all P＜0.05).Conclusion APMC technology applicated in low-dose chest CT scan of children could effectively reduce motion artifacts,improve edge clarity and imaging quality,hence enhance diagnostic sensitivity.
