Geniposide， the primary active component of the traditional Chinese medicine Gardeniae Fructus， is a water-soluble iridoid glycoside. Pharmacological studies have demonstrated that geniposide exhibits various biological activities， including hepatoprotective， anti-inflammatory， analgesic， neuroprotective， antidepressant effects， and inhibitory activity against ischemia-reperfusion injury. Recent research has revealed its promising potential in preventing and treating diseases such as atherosclerosis and osteoporosis， indicating broad application prospects. Numerous in vitro and in vivo studies indicate that the pharmacodynamic mechanisms of geniposide are primarily associated with the inhibition of inflammatory responses and oxidative stress， improvement of lipid metabolism， and regulation of apoptosis. However， due to its high water solubility and rapid metabolism in vivo， geniposide suffers from low oral bioavailability， which limits its therapeutic efficacy and clinical application. In recent years， various formulations， such as creams， cubic liquid crystals， hydrogels， and liposomes， have been developed to address its bioavailability issues. This article reviewed the latest research progress on the pharmacological activities and formulation development of geniposide by analyzing domestic and international literature from the past decade， aiming to provide a theoretical basis for further research， development， and utilization of geniposide and its formulations.

This study introduces the development of a 96-channel genetic analyzer and its application in forensic medicine.The instrument integrates a fluorescence excitation system,a fluorescence spectral imaging system,and a data acquisition and analysis system,enabling the simultaneous detection of 96 DNA samples.Performance validation in forensic science demonstrated that the analyzer can resolve DNA fragments differing by 1 bp,with accurate DNA typing and a detection sensitivity of 0.125 ng,while maintaining good repeatability.The system can effectively process various forensic samples,including blood cards,saliva cards,and shed cell swabs.In practical applications,the analyzer has significantly improved detection efficiency and shown excellent performance.Looking forward,by broadening the detection range of the nine-color fluorescence spectrum and enhancing the level of data intelligence,the instrument is expected to further strengthen its high-throughput multi-locus detection capability and efficiency,providing more powerful technical support for forensic DNA analysis.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness, safety, and cost among urinary follicle-stimulating hormone (u-FSH), recombinant FSH (r-FSH)α, and r-FSHβ in the early follicular phase prolonged protocol for patients under 35 years old with normal ovarian function.Methods:It was a retrospective cohort study. Patients under 35 years old with normal ovarian function who underwent early follicular phase prolonged protocol for ovulation stimulation and using in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) for fertilization in Reproductive Health Hospital of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to December 2023 were recruited, including the fresh and frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles. Patients were divided into u-FSH group, r-FSHα group, and r-FSHβ group. A total of 1 048 ovarian stimulation cycles were included, with 150 cycles, 490 cycles and 408 cycles in the three groups respectively. A total of 710 FET cycles with fresh cycle cancellation were included, with 95 cycles, 320 cycles and 295 cycles in the three groups respectively. The baseline data, pregnancy outcomes, safety, and cost were compared among the three groups. The main observation indicators were cumulative pregnancy rate and cumulative live birth rate (CLBR). A binary logistic regression model was used to control confounding factors, and to analyze the relationship between three ovulation inducing medicine and CLBR. Results:The difference in the number of oocytes retrieved among the u-FSH group, r-FSHα group, and r-FSHβ group was statistically significant [13.0 (10.0, 16.0), 14.0 (11.0, 18.0), 15.0 (11.0, 19.0), respectively, P=0.012], and the difference in the number of 2PN embryos was statistically significant [9.0 (6.0, 12.0), 10.0 (7.0, 13.0), 10.0 (7.0, 13.0), respectively, P=0.046]. There were no statistically significant differences in the number of available embryos, available embryo rate, the number of high-quality embryos, high-quality embryo rate, available blastocyst formation rate, fresh cycle clinical pregnancy rate, live birth rate in fresh cycle, cumulative pregnancy rate of frozen embryos with fresh cycle cancellation, CLBR of frozen embryos with fresh cycle cancellation, cumulative clinical pregnancy rate, CLBR, moderate to severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome incidence, ectopic pregnancy rate, multiple pregnancy rate and neonatal malformation rate among the three groups (all P>0.05). In terms of economy, the u-FSH group had the lowest total gonadotropin cost for each patient, while the r-FSHα group had the highest. The differences among the three groups were statistically significant [u-FSH group 4 429.08 (3 198.78, 5 044.23) yuan, r-FSHα group 6 023.72 (5 433.75, 7 529.65) yuan, r-FSHβ group 5 480.00 (4 550.90, 6 437.86) yuan, P<0.001]. Binary logistic regression analysis was conducted, using u-FSH as a control. The CLBR of the r-FSHα group and r-FSHβ group showed no statistically significant difference compared with the u-FSH group (a OR=0.95, 95% CI: 0.57-1.58, P=0.838; a OR=0.89, 95% CI: 0.54-1.48, P=0.654). Conclusion:For patients under 35 years old with normal ovarian function undergoing long protocol ovarian stimulation, the effectiveness and safety of the three ovarian-stimulating medicine are similar, but u-FSH has economic advantages.

Objective:To investigate whether hysteroscopic transcervical resection of septum (TCRS) prior to in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) can improve cumulative live birth rates in patients with uterine septum. Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze data from 244 patients with partial uterine septum who underwent IVF/ICSI at the Reproductive Medicine Center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between January 2016 and August 2022. The patients were divided into a surgical group ( n=171) and a non-surgical group ( n=73) based on whether TCRS was performed prior to IVF/ICSI. The clinical outcomes of IVF/ICSI in the two groups were analyzed, with the primary observation indicator being the cumulative live birth rate. Cox regression analysis was employed to identify determinants. Results:The age of patients in the operated group [(31.20±3.80) years] was younger than that in the non-operated group [(32.92±5.34) years, P=0.005], and the basal antral follicle count [17.0 (11.0, 24.0)] was higher than that in the non-operated group [14.0 (8.0, 21.5), P=0.039]. There were no significant differences in other baseline data (all P>0.05). The cumulative pregnancy rate [79.53% (136/171)] and the cumulative live birth rate [60.23% (103/171)] in the operated group during the 24-month follow-up period were significantly higher than those in the non-operated group [65.75% (48/73), P=0.022; 45.21% (33/73), P=0.030]. Compared with the operated group [296.0 (260.0, 430.0) d], the duration from the start of ovarian stimulation to the first live birth was significantly prolonged in the non-operated group [379.0 (329.5, 471.5) d, P<0.001]. Adjusted Cox-regression analysis showed that whether or not surgery was performed ( HR=1.683, 95% CI: 1.116-2.539, P=0.013) and the basal antral follicle count ( HR=1.032, 95% CI: 1.000-1.065, P=0.048) were independent factors affecting cumulative live birth rate. Conclusion:Performing TCRS before IVF/ICSI can improve cumulative live birth rates of patients with uterine septum.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of a modified Cancer and Aging Research Group(CARG)model in guiding anticancer drug dose adjustments for elderly cancer patients in China.Methods This prospective study enrolled patients aged≥65 years with solid tumors at the Department of Oncology,Peking Union Medical College Hospital from September 1,2022 to October 29,2023.All patients underwent comprehensive geriatric assessment(CGA)and CARG risk scoring,and were stratified into low-,intermediate-,and high-risk groups.Anti-cancer drug doses(including chemotherapy,targeted therapy or immunotherapy)were reduced proportionally based on CARG risk stratification and treatment intent(curative vs.palliative).Treatment outcomes and adverse events(AEs)were recorded regularly.Fisher's Exact Test compared AE incidence between the CARG-guided dose adjust-ment group(experimental)and the physician-experience-guided dose adjustment group(control).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was used to assess the predictive value of the CARG model for severe toxicity.Results Among 166 enrolled patients(median age:71 years[range:65-90];78.3%were male;68.7%had gastro-intestinal cancers;69.3%had stageⅣ),95 were assigned to the experimental group(CARG low-risk:24[25.3%],intermediate-risk:51[53.7%],high-risk:20[21.0%])and 71 were included into the control group.By December 31,2024,81 patients experienced disease progression and 10 patients died.Overall AE rates was 92.6%in the ex-perimental group and 94.4%in the control group,while grade≥3 AEs were recorded in 45.3%vs.43.7%,respec-tively(both P＞0.05).Conclusions The modified CARG model-guided dose adjustment strategy achieved comparable safety to empirical dose adjustment,which is in line with the individualized treatment paradigm for elderly cancer pa-tients,representing a structured framework for optimizing therapeutic decision-making in geriatric oncology.
