OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical comprehensive value of four Chinese patent medicines (Xuezhikang, Zhibitai, Zhibituo, Jiangzhiling) in the treatment of hyperlipidemia, and provide a reference for rational clinical drug use. METHODS A clinical comprehensive evaluation index system was established in accordance with the Evidence and Value: Impact on Decision-Making (EVIDEM) framework and Technical Guideline for Clinical Comprehensive Evaluation of Cardiovascular Drugs (2022 edition, trial implementation). CNKI, Wanfang data, VIP, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Embase and official websites were retrieved to collect the literature such as drug instructions, guidelines and consensus statements, and systematic reviews/meta-analyses for the four Chinese patent medicines. A comprehensive evaluation was conducted from seven dimensions: effectiveness, safety, economy, suitability, accessibility, innovation and characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine. RESULTS This evaluation index system included 7 first-level indicators, 15 second-level indicators and 30 third-level indicators. Xuezhikang achieved the highest comprehensive evaluation score of 81.4 points, and was classified as class Ⅰ recommendation. Zhibitai with 76.0 points and Zhibituo with 60.9 points were both classified as class Ⅱ recommendation. Jiangzhiling with 48.8 points was classified as class Ⅳ recommendation. CONCLUSIONS Xuezhikang demonstrates the optimal clinical comprehensive value for treating hyperlipidemia. Zhibitai exhibits certain advantages in terms of safety and characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine; Zhibituo shows a moderate performance in all aspects; Jiangzhiling has a relatively low score. Appropriate medicines can be selected clinically according to actual conditions and patients’ characteristics.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the characteristics of central nervous system regulation in patients with refractory overactive bladder (rOAB) using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI), and to analyze the differences in brain function and connection between the patients and healthy population.
METHODS:
From May 1 to November 30, 2024, we performed rs-fMRI for 47 rOAB patients and another 47 matched healthy controls, documented relevant clinical data from all the participants and obtained their Overactive Bladder Symptom Scores (OABSS) and Overactive Bladder Questionnaire (OAB-Q) scores. Based on rs-fMRI, we compared the results of Independent Component Analysis (ICA), amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF), fractional amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (fALFF), regional homogeneity (ReHo) and degree centrality (DC) between the rOAB patients and healthy controls.
RESULTS:
The rOAB patients, in comparison with the healthy controls, showed dramatically higher daytime urination frequency (11.64 ± 3.85) vs (5.76 ± 0.91), nighttime urination frequency (3.72 ± 1.64) vs (0.31 ± 0.47), OABSS (8.22 ± 2.21) vs (0.64±0.78), OAB-Q1 score (20.85 ± 5.28) vs (6.78 ± 1.04), and OAB-Q2 score (45.04 ± 12.11) vs (14.51 ± 1.66) (all P<0.01). No statistically significant differences were observed in the results of ICA and ALFF between the right superior frontal and right middle frontal regions in the rOAB patients (P>0.05), but fALFF, ReHo and DC were significantly decreased in the patients compared with those in the healthy controls (P<0.01).
CONCLUSION
Compared with healthy population, the functions and connection of the frontal superior right and frontal middle right brain regions in rOAB patients are significantly down-regulated, which may serve as new therapeutic targets.

To facilitate the early intelligent screening of pediatric genu valgum, this study develops a deep learning-based gait recognition model tailored for clinical application. The model is constructed upon a three-dimensional residual network architecture and incorporates a triplet attention module alongside a spatial hierarchical pooling module, jointly enhancing feature interaction across temporal, spatial, and channel dimensions. This design ensures an optimal balance between representational capacity and computational efficiency. Evaluated on a self-constructed dataset, the model achieves precision of 98.0%, 97.1%, and 96.5%, recall rates of 97.5%, 97.0%, and 95.0%, and F 1-scores of 0.98, 0.97, and 0.96 on the training, validation, and test sets, respectively, demonstrating excellent recognition performance and strong generalization ability. Ablation experiments confirm the importance of the proposed model's core components in improving performance, and comparative experiments further highlight its significant advantages in recognition accuracy and robustness. Visualization experiments reveal that the model effectively focuses on key regions of gait images, with attention regions aligning closely with clinical anatomical landmarks, thereby enhancing the interpretability of the model's decision-making in clinical applications. In summary, the proposed model not only offers an efficient and reliable technical solution for early intelligent screening of genu valgum in children, but also provides a practical pathway for applying gait recognition technology in medical diagnosis.

ObjectiveSodium hyaluronate (HA) was used as the research object to modify it with phenolic acid in order to obtain the molecular structure with better antioxidant activity or even new activity. MethodsIn this study, 5 kinds of phenolic acid-sodium hyaluronate was prepared by free radical-mediated grafting method, and the grafts with the highest grafting degree were selected to optimize the synthesis conditions. Then, grafts structure and physicochemical properties were analyzed. The grafts were characterized by IR, UV, 1H NMR, FESEM and TGA spectra. The in vitro antioxidant capacity of grafts was determined by the scavenging ability of DPPH·, ABTS+· and O2-·. ResultsAmong 5 kinds of phenolic acid-sodium hyaluronate, the grafting rate of ferulic acid-sodium hyaluronate copolymer (FA-HA) was highest , which was chosen as experimental sample in the following tests. Firstly, the reaction conditions were investigated and the highest grafting rate was (16.59±0.31) mg/g at the optimal preparation conditions. Then, FA-HA structure and physicochemical properties were analyzed. Data from UV, IR, 1H NMR analyses, TGA showed that FA were successfully grafted to HA. Compared with HA, the results of gel permeation chrematography (GPC) showed that the molecular mass distribution ofFA-HA copolymer decreased from 34.4 to 31.5 ku, but the uniformity of molecular distribution was improved. FESEM results showed that the structure of copolymer exhibited a closely connected lamellar structure with a relatively smooth surface. TGA results showed that thermal stability of FA-HA had a little decline. The antioxidant performance in vitro results showed that, during 0.25-10 g/L, FA-HA can eliminate (83.76±4.86)% DPPH·, (76.95±5.06)% ABTS+· and (83.08±2.51)% O2-· respectively at 10 g/L. which were higher than that of native HA and FA. ConclusionFA and HA were successfully grafted together by free radical grafting, and the grafted FA-HA had better antioxidant activity in vitro, which provided a theoretical basis for further research and development of phenolic acid-HA grafts.

10.Study progress on pharmacogenomics of sodium-glucose linked transporter 2 inhibitors
China Pharmacy 2024;35(14):1790-1794
Sodium-glucose linked transporter 2 inhibitors(SGLT2i) are novel oral hypoglycaemic agents and are widely used for hypoglycemic therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, but differences in the genetic backgrounds of patients often lead to variable responsiveness to drug therapy. By summarizing the pharmacogenomic studies of SGLT2i, the article found that the genetic variants of UGT1A9, UGT2B4, SLC5A2, ABCB1, PNPLA3 and WFS1 may influence the pharmacokinetics of SGLT2i and the external hypoglycemic effects of SGLT2i in improving non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, weight loss and so on, but there is no clinical evidence that genetic polymorphisms affect the hypoglycemic efficacy of SGLT2i.
