In order to provide a reference basis for the development of relevant compound preparations, this article takes a comprehensive analysis of the usage and dosage of famous classical formulas in Han dynasty from various perspectives, and gives corresponding countermeasures on this basis. Through the comprehensive analysis of the classification and statistics of Zhongjing's medication characteristics, decoction methods, administration and dosage, and combining conversion methods of weights and measures by ancient medical practitioners, along with the dosage and administration of the listed Han dynasty famous classical formulas, it was found that the "Jiangxi method" served as a general guideline for administration according to Zhongjing's original text. This method allowed for flexible dosing based on the conversion of the ancient measurements to modern equivalents[13.8 g per Liang(两)], ensuring the safe and effective medication of these formulas. After combing, it is found that although the dosage of single medicine is large in famous classical formulas from Han dynasty, the administration is flexible. The crude drug amount per administration serves as the foundational dose, with the frequency of administration adjusted flexibly according to the condition. This dosing approach becomes the key for the rational development of compound formulations of famous classical formulas. Based on the conclusions of the study, it is recommended that when developing compound formulations of famous classical formulas in Han dynasty, the original administration method and dosage should be respected. The original crude drug amount per administration should be considered as the daily foundational dose, with the frequency of administration described within a range(1 to N times per day, where N is the maximum number of administrations as per the original text). The specific frequency of administration can be adjusted flexibly by clinical practitioners based on the individual condition. This approach should also be adopted in toxicological studies, where the dosage per administration serves as the basis for toxicity research, and the toxicity profile at the maximum administration frequency should be observed, providing guidance on the clinical safety range. Corresponding drug labels should provide information within a range to indicate toxicological risk intervals.

Objective:To establish and validate the prediction model for bone marrow metastasis (BMM) in malignant tumors by screening out laboratory multiparameters.Methods:This case-control study collected 444 cases of malignant tumor patients who were hospitalized in the First Hospital of Jilin University from March 2018 to March 2024, including 243 cases for model establishment set and 201 cases for model validation set. The model establishment set was divided into BMM positive group (81 cases) and BMM negative group (162 cases), and the model validation set was divided into positive group (67 cases) and a negative group (134 cases). We collected patients′ clinical information such as gender, age, clinical diagnosis, and results of 47 laboratory tests including routine blood analysis, coagulation, liver function, tumor markers, potassium, sodium, chloride, and calcium ion tests, bone marrow morphology, and bone marrow biopsy. BMM was taken as the outcome event, differencial variables were analyzed using inter group comparisons, the correlation among parameters was analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis, the risk factors for BMM were analyzed using multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis, to establish logistic model, followed by efficiency evaluation on BMM predictive model using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.Results:In the model establishment set, Pearson correlation analysis of 28 parameters that differed between the BMM positive and negative groups revealed that the correlation coefficients of 17 parameters, including mean platelet volume (MPV), hematocrit (HCT), hemoglobin (HGB), and prothrombin time (PT), were no more than 0.6 ( P<0.05). Further multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis demonstrated that MPV, HGB, HCT, PT, red cell distribution width (RDW), platelet count (PLT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), chloride (Cl -), and mean erythrocyte hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) were the risk factors of BMM occurence in malignancy [MPV ( OR=9.929, 95% CI 2.688-71.335), HCT ( OR=8.232, 95% CI 6.223-9.841), HGB ( OR=4.300, 95% CI 1.947-16.577), PT ( OR=3.738, 95% CI 1.359-11.666), RDW ( OR=1.995, 95% CI 1.275-3.807), ALP ( OR=1.025, 95% CI 1.012-1.045), PLT ( OR=1.014, 95% CI 1.002-1.031), MCHC ( OR=0.724, 95% CI 0.523-0.880) and Cl -( OR=0.703, 95% CI 0.472-0.967)]. In the model establishment set, combiation of risk factors provided an AUC of 0.943 (95% CI 0.898-0.987, P<0.001), a sensitivity of 86.3%, and a specificity of 89.2% for BMM prediction. In the model validation set, the AUC was 0.924 (95% CI 0.854-0.960, P<0.001), with a sensitivity and specificity of 86.7% and 83.8%, respectively. Conclusion:This study built and validated a multiple-parameter model for BMM, which may facilitate the timely detection of BMM and provide reference for decision making of bone marrow aspiration.

Purpose:
This study explored the association of the elasticity modulus and shear wave velocity (SWV) of the tibialis anterior muscle, as measured by two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE), with the intracompartmental pressure (ICP) determined using the Whitesides method in a New Zealand rabbit model of acute compartment syndrome (ACS). Additionally, it evaluated the viability of 2D-SWE as a noninvasive, quantitative tool for the early detection of ACS.
Methods:
An ACS model was established through direct external compression by applying pressure bandaging to the lower legs of 15 New Zealand rabbits using neonatal blood pressure cuffs. Another five animals represented a non-modeled control group. To measure the elasticity modulus and SWV of the tibialis anterior muscles, 2D-SWE was employed. Blood oxygen saturation, serum creatine kinase (CK), and myoglobin levels were monitored. Subsequently, the anterior tibial compartment was dissected, and the tibialis anterior was removed for hematoxylin and eosin staining to assess muscle injury.
Results:
The elasticity modulus and SWV of the tibialis anterior muscle increased with compression duration, as did serum CK and myoglobin levels. ICP was strongly positively correlated with these parameters, particularly mean velocity (r=0.942, P<0.001) and CK (r=0.942, P<0.001). Blood oxygen saturation was negatively correlated with ICP (r=-0.887, P<0.001). Histological analysis indicated progressive muscle cell swelling over time, with damage transitioning from reversible to irreversible and culminating in necrosis.
Conclusion
In a rabbit ACS model, ICP was strongly positively correlated with muscle elasticity modulus/SWV. Consequently, 2D-SWE may represent a novel tool for assessing early-phase ACS.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Zhishi Xiebai Guizhitang (ZXGT) on isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial infarction (MI) in rats through the tumor necrosis factor/nuclear factor-κB (TNF/NF-κB) signaling pathway. MethodForty-eight SD rats were randomly divided into control group (blank), model group, perindopril group (4 mg·kg-1), ZXGT group (24.4 g·kg-1), ZXGT +inhibitor group (ZXGT, 24.4 g·kg-1, TNF-α receptor inhibitor R7050, 5 mg·kg-1), and an inhibitor group (R7050, 5 mg·kg-1), with eight rats in each group. The rats in each group were orally administered with their respective drugs for 7 days. Additionally, in the ZXGT + inhibitor group and the inhibitor group, R7050 was injected intraperitoneally at a dose of 5 mg·kg-1 on the 6th and 7th days. Except for the control group, all other groups were given intraperitoneal injections of ISO for 2 consecutive days to induce MI in rats. On the 7th day of the experiment, the rats were anesthetized 30 min after ISO injection, and their electrocardiograms (ECGs) were recorded to observe ST-segment elevation. Small animal echocardiography was used to measure global longitudinal strain (GLS) and cardiac synchrony. Blood samples were collected from the abdominal aorta to measure the levels of serum cardiac troponin T (cTnT), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-1β (IL-1β). Histopathological changes in myocardial tissue were observed using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect the expression of TNF-α, NF-κB p65, and p-NF-κB p65 proteins in myocardial tissue. Western blot was performed to measure the expression of tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1), tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2), transforming growth factor-beta-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), NF-κB inhibitory protein alpha (IκBα), phosphorylated (p)-IκBα, NF-κB p65, and p-NF-κB p65 proteins in myocardial tissue. ResultCompared with the control group, the model group showed significant ST segment elevation on the ECG (P<0.01), increased GLS, and reduced cardiac synchrony on echocardiography (P<0.01). Histopathological examination revealed extensive myocardial necrosis. Furthermore, the serum levels of cTnT, CK-MB, LDH, TNF-α, and IL-1β were significantly increased (P<0.01), and the expression levels of TNF-α, TNFR1, TRAF2, TAK1, p-IκBα, and p-NF-κB p65 proteins in myocardial tissue were significantly elevated (P<0.01), while the expression level of IκBα was significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the perindopril group, the ZXGT group, the ZXGT + inhibitor group, and the inhibitor group rats showed a significant reduction in ST-segment elevation on the ECG (P<0.05, P<0.01), improvement in GLS and cardiac synchrony (P<0.05, P<0.01), a decrease in the area of myocardial necrosis, and reduced serum levels of cTnT, CK-MB, LDH, TNF-α, and IL-1β (P<0.01). Additionally, the ZXGT group, the ZXGT + inhibitor group, and the inhibitor group downregulated the increased TNF-α, TNFR1, TRAF2, TAK1, p-IκBα, and p-NF-κB p65 protein expression levels and upregulated IκBα expression levels in the myocardial tissue (P<0.05, P<0.01). No significant differences were observed between the ZXGT group and the ZXGT + inhibitor group or the inhibitor group. ConclusionZXGT can protect against ISO-induced myocardial injury in rats and improve cardiac function, and its mechanism of action may be related to the regulation of the TNF/NF-κB signaling pathway.
