Chemical constituents of n-butanol fraction of ethanol extract from the leaves of Cyclocarya paliurus (Batalin) Iljinskaja were studied. Ten compounds were purified by silica gel, MCI, ODS, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography and semi-preparative high-performance liquid chromatography. Based on the physicochemical properties and spectroscopic data, these compounds were identified as (4S)-4,8-dihydroxy-α-tetralone-5-[6′-(3′′,5′′-dimethoxy-(E)-p-coumaroyl)]-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), (4S)-4,8-dihydroxy-α-tetralone-5-[6′-(E)-feruloyl]-β-D-glucopyranoside (2), (1S,3R,4S,5R)-4,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid methyl ester (3), (1R,3R,4S,5R)-3,4-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid methyl ester (4), (3R,5R)-3,4,5-tri-O-caffeoylquinic acid methyl ester (5), (1R,3R,4S,5R)-3-O-caffeoyl-5-O-p-coumaroyl quinic acid methyl ester (6), (1R,3R,4S,5R)-3-O-p-coumaroy-4-O-caffeoyl quinic acid methyl ester (7), (1R,3R,4S,5R)-3-O-caffeoyl-4-O-p-coumaroy quinic acid methyl ester (8), (3R,5R)-3,5-di-O-caffeoyl quinic acid methyl ester (9) and (1S,3R,4R,5R)-4-O-caffeoyl-5-O-feruloyl quinic acid methyl ester (10). Among them, compound 1 was a new compound, and compounds 3–10 were isolated from the genus Cyclocarya for the first time.

Objective To explore the relevant factors affecting the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine in treating MG,and to develop and validate a nomogram model,in order to personalize the prediction of the probability of benefits for MG patients after traditional Chinese medicine treatment,further guide clinical physicians in targeted medication,and provide guidance for the traditional Chinese medicine treatment of MG.Method Retrospective analysis of MG patients who visited the Affiliated Hospital of Changchun University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from March 2018 to June 2022,13 clinical factors were selected to evaluate the results.To acquire independent factors,univariate and multivariate Logistic analyses were performed.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve,Harrell's concordance index,calibration curve,and decision curve analyses were used to evaluate the predictive ability,accuracy,and clinical practicability of the prediction model.Results A total of 204 cases were included,divided into derivation cohort 139 cases and temporal validation cohort 65 cases.Multivariate Logistic regression showed 4 independent predictors affecting effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine in treating MG,including age at onset,repetitive nerve stimulation positive,oral immunosuppressant and anxiety/depression.AUC values for the model group and validation group were 0.76(95%CI:0.68-0.84)and 0.83(95%CI:0.71-0.95),respectively,and based on calibration curve and decision curve analysis,we concluded that the nomogram showed excellent performance.Conclusion MG patients may experience a decrease in short-term efficacy with age,positive RNS,concomitant emotional abnormalities,or recent history of immunosuppressive therapy.This nomogram effectively predicts the possibility of short-term effective traditional Chinese medicine treatment in MG patients.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and safety of bedside transesophageal echocardiography(TEE)-guided atrial septostomy in patients undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)support.Methods Eight patients(2 females and 6 males)who developed pulmonary edema during VA-ECMO treatment between January 2020 and October 2024 were enrolled.All patients underwent bedside TEE-guided atrial septal puncture,followed by gradual balloon dilation using an Inoue balloon(diameter:18-24 mm).The endpoint for dilation was defined as mean left atrial pressure＜15 mmHg.Post-procedure evaluation included assessment of the septal defect size,mean left atrial pressure,and improvement in bilateral pulmonary edema.Results The mean age of all 8 patients was(43.50±16.84)years old.Atrial septostomy was successfully performed in all patients.The mean balloon dilation diameter was(22.75±2.68)mm,resulting in a mean septal defect size of(6.31±0.37)mm.The mean left atrial pressure significantly decreased from(26.63±1.77)mmHg pre-procedure to(12.75±1.28)mmHg post-procedure(P＜0.001).All patients demonstrated marked improvement in bilateral pulmonary edema,and six patients also showed a significant reduction in the severity of mitral regurgitation following the procedure.No procedure-related complications were observed.Conclusions Bedside TEE-guided atrial septostomy is safe and effective for reducing left heart loading during ECMO support and improving pulmonary edema.

Objective To compare the impact of NaClO and EDTA pretreatment on the enamel surfaces pore exposure rate,resin in-filtration effectiveness and shear bond strength between the enamel white spot lesions(WSLs)and resin composite.Methods A total of 104 sound premolars were selected for the study.4 mm×4 mm×2 mm enamel blocks from 64 sound premolars were cut in the center of the buccal surfaces of the teeth.All blocks were randomly divided into five groups:group SE(sound enamels as negative control);group DE(enamel blocks demineralised as positive control);group RI(resin infiltration);group N/RI(5.25％NaClO pretreatment and resin infiltration)and group E/RI(17％EDTA pretreatment and resin infiltration).The pore exposure rate of enamel surfaces and resin penetration depths were observed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM)and confocallaser scanning microscopy(CLSM)in each group.The remaining 40 premolars were cut from the cervical roots and the residual crowns were embedded in self-condensing resin ma-terial(buccal surfaces of the enamel exposed only).According to the grouping information,the samples were given the corresponding pretreatments and resin infiltration respectively and were bonded with a cylindrical resin cylinder on the buccal enamel surface for shear bond test.The shear bond strength and fracture modes were recorded and analyzed in each group.Results Compared to group RI,the pore exposure rate of the enamel surface,resin penetration depths,and percentage of resin penetration area in the N/RI and E/RI groups were significantly increased(P＜0.05).The shear bond strength of the samples in group SE was the highest,and the lowest in group DE.Compared to group DE,the shear bond strength in groups RI,N/RI,and E/RI was significantly increased(P＜0.05).Con-clusion Enamel surface pretreatment with 5.25％NaClO or 17％EDTA has been demonstrated to effectively enhance the enamel pore exposure rate,resin penetration depth and the shear bond strength between WSLs and resin composite.

Objective:To summarize and discuss the clinical effect of different forms of anterolateral femoral perforator flap in the repair of acute lower extremity lesions based on the theory of damage control orthopaedics (DCO).Methods:The clinical data of 33 patients with acute destructive wounds in the lower limbs admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2018 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Under the guidance of the DCO theory, the combined injuries were treated through multidisciplinary consultation, and at the same time, first-stage debridement, bone stent restoration, limb blood transport reconstruction, nerve tendon repair and temporary vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) dressing were applied. After the systemic condition was stabilized, the wound was repaired with anterolateral femoral perforator flaps of different forms. The defect area was 8.0 cm×5.0 cm-35.0 cm×25.0 cm, and the donor flap area was closed in one stage in all cases.Results:30 cases of skin flap survived completely after operation, 2 cases had distal partial necrosis, wound healing after dressing change, 1 case had delayed complete necrosis. The follow-up time was 9-25(14.7±5.3)months. 2 patients were treated with the second stage of repair surgery due to the bloated flap. The rest were satisfied with the shape of the reconstructed flap and the donor flap area, and the ankle joint function score was good.Conclusions:DCO theory combined with anterolateral femoral perforator flap is a safe and effective way to repair the mutilated wounds of lower limbs.

Bladder cancer is a common malignant tumor in the urinary system.At present,the main treatment methods include surgery and drug therapy.Although surgical treatment has shown remarkable effects,the prognosis and quality of life of patients still need to be improved.In recent years,immunotherapy has developed rapidly,with programmed cell death-1(PD-1)/programmed cell death-ligand-1(PD-L1)emerging as particularly prominent targets.In order to deeply understand the potential of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in the treatment of bladder cancer and provide new ideas for the treatment of bladder cancer,this study reviewed the research progress of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in the field of bladder cancer.
