ObjectiveTo explore the clinical application law and provide literature support and development ideas for the modern application of fresh Plantaginis Herba. MethodThe literature about the application of fresh Plantaginis Herba was retrieved from the fifth edition of Chinese medical dictionary， China national knowledge infrastructure （CNKI）， VIP， Wanfang data， and Chinese medical journals and analyzed. ResultFresh Plantaginis Herba appeared frequently in ancient books， with the effects of clearing heat， cooling blood， promoting urination， and relieving stranguria. It was used for the treatment of stranguria， urine retention， bloody urine， sore and carbuncle， epistaxis， red and swelling eye， suppurative inflammation in the throat， and gynecological and pediatric diseases. According to modern medical publications， fresh Plantaginis Herba is mainly used to treated diseases in the kidney， five sense organs， spleen， stomach， lung， liver， gallbladder， and skin and gynecological and pediatric diseases. Specifically， it is mainly used to treat the syndrome of dampness and heat in kidney and skin diseases caused by the accumulation of dampness and heat toxin， with the effects of clearing heat， removing toxin， promoting urination， and relieving stranguria. Since ancient times， there have been reports of using fresh Plantaginis Herbausing for food and health care. ConclusionFresh Plantaginis Herba is widely used in clinical practice and has a high medical value and economic value. However， its modern application lags behind， so it is necessary to promote the development of fresh Plantaginis Herba from the aspects of medicinal material production， storage， transportation， preparation research and development， and clinical application.

【Objective】 To investigate the frequency of platelet antibodies in voluntary blood donors and patients in Zhongshan, Guangdong Province, and to study the specificity and cross-matching of platelet antibodies. 【Methods】 Platelet antibodies of blood donors and patients were screened by solid-phase immunoadsorption (SPIA), rechecked by flow cytometry (FCM), and antibody specificity was identified by PakPlus enzyme immunoassay, and platelet cross-matching was simulated by SPIA. 【Results】 A total of 1 049 blood donor samples and 598 patient samples were tested, with 6 (0.57%) and 49 (8.19%) samples positive for SPIA,respectively(P<0.05); In SPIA positive samples, the positive concordance rate of FCM in blood donors and patients was 100% vs 95%, and that of enzyme immunoassay was 100% vs 88%. Among the initial screening positive samples of blood donors, 5 were anti-HLA Ⅰ antibodies, accounting for 83%, and 1 was anti CD36 antibody, accounting for 17%, with an incidence rate of 0.10%. Among the 14 samples of enzyme immunoassay positive patients, 2 were anti-GP Ⅱb/Ⅲa, 1 was anti-GP Ⅱa/Ⅱa, 8 were anti HLA Ⅰ, and 3 were mixed antibodies (HLA Ⅰ, GP Ⅱb/Ⅲa, GP Ⅰa/Ⅱa). According to the types of antibodies, HLA Ⅰ antibodies were the most common, accounting for 65% (11/17), followed by HPA related anti GP, accounting for 35% (6/17). The majority of patients had a platelet antibody positive typing rate below 30%, accounting for 71.4% (10/14). 【Conclusions】 The positive rate of platelet antibody of patients in Zhongshan area is significantly higher than that of voluntary blood donors, and most of them are anti-HLA Ⅰ and anti-GP, and the incidence of anti-CD36 is extremely low. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a known platelet antigen donor bank, and at the same time, carry out platelet antibody testing and matching of patients, which is helpful to solve the issue of platelet transfusion refractoriness.

Objective To investigate the impact of anti-reflux modified duodenal exclusion surgery on glucose metabolism in rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and to elucidate the role of the duodenum in maintaining glucose homeostasis. MethodsForty male Sprague-Dawley rats aged 5 weeks were fed a high-fat diet and induced with T2DM using low-dose streptozotocin. Thirty-six rats that met the T2DM model criteria were randomly divided into three groups: the simple duodenal exclusion surgery group (DE group), the anti-reflux modified duodenal exclusion group (MDE group), and the sham operation group (SO group), with 12 rats in each group. Gastroenterography was performed 4 weeks after surgery, and the body weight, fasting blood glucose levels, and serum glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) concentrations were measured before surgery and at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks post-surgery. Eight weeks post-surgery, the rats were euthanized, and a 1 cm segment of the biliopancreatic loop was collected from each group for pathological sectioning and HE staining to observe the intestinal mucosal villus length under an optical microscope. Results Gastroenterography showed that there was significant reflux of the contrast agent into the duodenal lumen in the DE group, while no reflux was observed in the MDE group. At one week post-surgery, the body weights of rats in all three groups significantly decreased compared to before surgery (P<0.05), and then the body weights of all groups increased over time, with no significant differences between the groups (P>0.05). Compared with the SO group, the fasting blood glucose levels in the MDE and DE groups significantly decreased at all time points post-surgery (P<0.05), while GLP-1 concentrations significantly increased (P<0.05). The fasting blood glucose levels in the MDE group were lower than those in the DE group at all time points post-surgery (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences in serum GLP-1 concentrations between the MDE and DE groups (P>0.05). Regarding intestinal mucosal morphology, the villus lengths of the biliopancreatic loops in the MDE group were significantly shorter than those in the DE and SO groups (P<0.05). Conclusion Anti-reflux modified duodenal exclusion surgery effectively improves glucose metabolism in T2DM rats by preventing the reflux of chyme into the diverted duodenum, thereby enhancing its hypoglycemic effect.

ObjectiveTo provide a reference for the establishment of an ideal corneal neovascularization （CNV） animal model by summarizing the modeling characteristics of CNV animal models. MethodWith "CVN" as the theme word， this paper searched the China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， Wanfang， Chinese medical journals full-text database， and PubMed database and screened out relevant literature on CNV animal experiments from 2013 to 2023. The database was established by Excel 2021， and the experimental animal strain， gender， modeling method， detection index， and application category were sorted out. The characteristics of the CNV animal model were analyzed. ResultAfter comparative analysis， it was found that the animal strains were Sprague-Dawley rats （87 times， 29.49%） and New Zealand white rabbits （52 times， 17.63%）. Male animals were recommended. Most modeling methods for efficacy verification and mechanism studies were the alkali burn method. Index detection methods included apparent index observation， histopathological detection， immunohistochemistry （IHC）， Western blot， and various polymerase chain reaction （PCR） tests. Detection indexes included apparent indication， corneal histopathology， CNV regulation， etc. ConclusionThe CNV model of SD rats induced by the alkali burn method is recommended for model replication， and the indexes are mainly selected from the growth of CNV， corneal histopathological test， and vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF）-related test. In addition， according to the demand， the corneal apparent indication and the basic indexes related to the regulation of CNV， such as vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 （VEGFR2）， basic fibroblast growth factor （bFGF）， and secretogranin Ⅲ （Scg3） are also selected. Clinical treatment of CNV relies on anti-inflammatory drugs and anti-VEGF drugs， and there is a lack of application of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， so the model needs to be improved by adding elements of TCM syndromes.

Objective:To observe the impacts of using heated and humidified gas sources for delivery room resuscitation on the short-term outcomes of extremely preterm infants.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 231 extremely preterm infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of Shenzhen Maternity & Child Healthcare Hospital, the First School of Clinical Medicine, Southern Medical University, from January 2020 to December 2022. The infants were divided into two groups based on whether heated and humidified gas sources were used during delivery room resuscitation: the heated and humidified group (103 cases) and the non-heated and humidified group (128 cases). Independent sample t-tests, Chi-square tests, and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to compare general conditions and short-term outcomes between the groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to assess the impact of using heated and humidified gas sources during delivery room resuscitation on the short-term outcomes of extremely preterm infants. Results:Compared to the non-heated and humidified group, the heated and humidified group had a lower incidence of intubation resuscitation [28.2% (29/103) vs. 41.4% (53/128), χ 2=4.38], moderate to severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)/death [22.3% (23/103) vs. 39.1% (50/128), χ 2=7.39] and low rectal temperature upon admission (<36.7 ℃) [57.3% (59/103) vs. 79.7% (102/128), χ 2=13.57], while the rectal temperature upon admission was higher [36.3 ℃ (36.0-36.7 ℃) vs. 35.9 ℃ (35.5-36.3 ℃), U=－5.05], with all differences being statistically significant (all P<0.05). After adjusting for gender, gestational age, mode of delivery, amniotic fluid condition, weight on admission, maternal premature rupture of membranes, assisted reproductive technology, and full course of prenatal steroid use, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the use of heated and humidified gas sources during delivery room resuscitation could increase the hospital admission rectal temperature ( β=0.46, 95% CI: 0.28-0.64), and decrease the risks of severe BPD/death ( aOR=0.39, 95% CI: 0.20-0.75), and low rectal temperature upon admission ( aOR=0.29, 95% CI: 0.16-0.55)(all P<0.05). Compared to the non-heated and humidified group, the heated and humidified group showed no statistically significant differences in the use of pulmonary surfactant [37.9% (39/103) vs. 43.8% (56/128), χ 2=1.45], incidence of stage Ⅲ or higher necrotizing enterocolitis [2.0% (2/103) vs. 5.5% (7/128), χ 2=2.06], grade Ⅲ or higher intracranial hemorrhage [2.9% (3/103) vs. 3.9% (5/128), χ 2=0.22], and retinopathy of prematurity requiring surgical treatment [3.9% (4/103) vs. 10.2% (13/128), χ 2=3.60] (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The use of heated and humidified gas sources during resuscitation of extremely preterm infants can reduce the risk of moderate to severe BPD/death, help maintain warmth during resuscitation, and do not adversely affect other short-term outcomes.

Objective To investigate the results of ambulatory electrocardiographic(ECG)monitoring in a community-based homebound elderly population and to explore the applicability of wearable long-range ambulatory ECG monitor for them.Methods Elderly volunteers were recruited in Shuangbei Community,Shapingba District,Chongqing,from November 2021 to June 2023.A single-lead wearable ambulatory ECG recorder was applied to them to obtain ECG for 7 consecutive days.The adverse reactions,acceptability,monitoring duration,and arrhythmia detection rate during the wearing were described and recorded.Serious arrhythmic events included frequent atrial premature,atrial flutter,atrial fibrillation(AF),frequent ventricular premature,and RR intervals ≥5 s.Results There were 416 individuals enrolled,with a mean age of 71.2±6.6 years,and a male percentage of 36.1％(150 men).Finally,384(92.3％)participants completed the wearing of the ECG monitor for 7 d,with an average time of 159.2±29.4 h.There were 179 participants(48.5％)reporting no discomfort during wearing,and 175 ones(47.4％)feeling itchy at the wearing site.The monitoring results showed that the common arrhythmias were atrial premature contractions(97.1％),premature ventricular contractions(93.3％),atrial tachycardia(84.6％),bradycardia(46.6％),frequent atrial premature contractions(15.1％),ventricular tachycardia(13.2％),and long RR interval(11.8％).Among them,29.1％of the participants experienced serious arrhythmic events,and the detection rate of certain serious arrhythmic events was comparatively higher in the individuals≥70 years of age and those with history of previous cardiac disease.Conclusion The detection rate of common arrhythmias is quite high in the community-based homebound elderly population.A 7-day long-range ambulatory ECG monitoring may be appropriate.

Objective To analyze and construct systolic blood pressure(SBP)fluctuation trajectory in a community population with hypertension and to analyze the factors influencing different trajectories.Methods This is a community-based retrospective cohort study.A latent class trajectory model was used to identify and construct longitudinal trajectories of blood pressure change.Multinomial logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the associated factors of blood pressure trajectories by adjusting for different confounders.Potential confounding factors were identified using a directed acyclic graph based on a priori knowledge.Results A total of 793 patients with hypertension were enrolled in the analysis.They were divided into 3 groups by LCTM-fitted systolic blood pressure trajectories,namely stable low-level group(n=561,70.74％),declining group(n=170,21.44％)and rising group(n=62,7.82％).Significant differences were observed among the 3 trajectories groups in terms of age,frequency of exercise,ways of follow-up,salt intake,compliance behavior,and referral(P＜0.05).Compared to the stable low-level group and adjusting for corresponding confounding factors,the male patients and the patients with"outpatient follow-up"were more likely to be classified into"declining group",with OR and 95％CI of 1.436(1.016～2.030)and 1.702(1.202～2.410),respectively.The participants aged ≥ 65 years,who did not exercise or occasionally exercised,and had moderate and severe salt intake,were more likely to be classified into the"rising group"(OR=1.949,2.284,2.433,4.540,95％CI:1.145～3.317,1.305～3.998,1.272～4.654,1.291～15.963).Conclusion SBP trajectories in community-dwelling hypertensive population can be divided into stable low-level,declining and rising groups.Gender,age,salt intake,exercise frequency,and follow-up methods may be influencing factors for SBP blood pressure trajectory.

Objective To summarize the modeling methods and standards of thyroid cancer,to provide reference for the establishment of thyroid cancer animal model close to the clinical syndrome of Chinese and Western medicine,and to promote the progress of clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods The modeling methods and characteristics of animal models of thyroid cancer in CNKI,Wanfang,Web of Science and PubMed databases were analyzed and summarized.The advantages and disadvantages were evaluated,and the coincidence degree with the clinical characteristics of traditional Chinese and Western medicine was analyzed.Results There are many modeling methods for thyroid cancer animal models,which are mainly divided into four types:spontaneous,induced,genetic engineering and transplantation models.Genetic engineering mouse models include transgenic models,gene knockout models,gene replacement models and the latest reported restricted mouse models.Among them,the genetic engineering mouse model and the transplanted mouse model have a high clinical coincidence,and the spontaneous and induced tumor model have a low clinical coincidence.Conclusion It is one of the important directions for future research on thyroid cancer to establish an animal model consistent with"TCM syndrome"and"Western medicine diagnostic criteria".

Digital polymerase chain reaction (dPCR) is an absolute quantitative technique that has been rapidly developed in recent years. This technique assigns the reaction system containing DNA template to a large number of independent reaction units for PCR, and calculates the DNA copy number according to the Poisson distribution and statistical positive signals. In contrast to conventional qPCR, dPCR does not depend on amplification curves, is not affected by amplification efficiency, thus has high accuracy and repeatability, and can achieve the absolute quantification. This article reviews the development history of dPCR and its application in molecular diagnosis, tumor liquid biopsy and prenatal diagnosis of infectious diseases, and looks forward to the application prospect of this technology.

Objective:To study the effects of breastfeeding within 2 weeks after birth on late-onset sepsis in very low birth weight infants (VLBWI).Methods:From July 2018 to June 2019, clinical data of VLBWI (birth weight <1 500 g) born in our hospital were retrospectively reviewed. According to the proportion of breastfeeding volume in total feeding volume within 2 weeks after birth, the infants were assigned into high-proportion breastfeeding group (breastfeeding >50%), low-proportion breastfeeding group (breastfeeding ≤50%) and formula group. The incidences of late-onset sepsis among the three groups were compared using the chi-square test or Fisher's exact probability method. Logistic regression was used to analyze the effects of breastfeeding within 2 weeks after birth on late-onset sepsis.Results:The incidences of late sepsis in high-proportion breastfeeding group, low-proportion breastfeeding group and formula group were 0.4% (1/216), 8.1% (5/62) and 8.0% (2/25), respectively ( P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the high-proportion breastfeeding group, the low-proportion breastfeeding group ( OR=17.844, 95% CI 2.005~158.775) and the formula group ( OR=23.261, 95% CI 1.916~282.350) had increased risks of late-onset sepsis. Conclusions:For VLBWI, high proportion breastfeeding (breastfeeding >50%) within 2 weeks after birth may reduce the risk of late-onset sepsis.
