ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of exhalation-inhalation exercise on early pulmonary rehabi-litation for patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （AECOPD）. MethodsA total of 120 participants with AECOPD were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group， with 60 participants in each group. The control group treated with conventional western medicine， while the treatment group received exhalation-inhalation exercise training on the basis of conventional western medicine treatment， with 30 minutes per session and 5 sessions per week. The course of treatment for both groups was 12 weeks. The primary outcome was the 6-minute walking distance （6MWD）. The secondary outcomes included pulmonary function indexes including forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity （FEV1/FVC）， percentage of predicted forced expiratory volume in one second （FEV1%） and percentage of predicted forced vital capacity （FVC%）， St.George's Respiratory Questionnaire （SGRQ） score， modified Medical Research Council （mMRC） dyspnea scale score， COPD assessment test （CAT） score， hospital anxiety and depression scale-anxiety subscale ［HADS（A）］ score， and hospital anxiety and depression scale-depression subscale ［HADS（D）］ score. Meanwhile， safety of all participants was recorded and assessed. ResultsDuring the treatment， 12 participants dropped out from both the treatment group and the control group， with 48 participants in each group finally included in the analysis. The 6MWD of both groups after treatment was higher than that before treatment， and the 6MWD of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. After treatment， the SGRQ score， mMRC score and CAT score of the treatment group were lower than those before treatment， while FEV1%， FVC% and FEV1/FVC were higher than those before treatment （P＜0.05）. Moreover， after treatment， the FEV1/FVC of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group， while the SGRQ score， mMRC score and CAT score were lower than those of the control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. There was no statistically significant difference in pulmonary function indexes， SGRQ score， mMRC score and CAT score after treatment in the control group （P＞0.05）. No statistically significant difference was observed in HADS（A） score and HADS（D） score after treatment within and between groups （P＞0.05）. The incidence of adverse reactions in the treatment group was 6.25% （3/48）， and 0 in the control group， with no statistically significant difference between groups （P＞0.05）. ConclusionExhalation-inhalation exercise for patients with AECOPD in early pulmonary rehabilitation can improve patients' exercise tole-rance， quality of life， clinical symptoms and pulmonary function， with good safety.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics of the patients with follicular cysts and menstrual disorders.Methods A total of 178 women with follicular cysts complicated by menstrual disorders were recruited,who were aged 23-53(38.62±6.35)years and came to the Department of Gynecological Endocrinology,Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital between August 2022 and July 2024.The participants were divided into three groups according to the age,with 27 women in the age group of 21-30 years(Group 1),77 in the age group of 31-40 years(Group 2),and 74 in the age group of>40 years(Group 3).The age and menstruation of these patients were collected,the body height,weight,follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),luteinizing hormone(LH),estradiol(E2),progesterone(Po),total testosterone(TT),prolactin(PRL),anti-müllerian hormone(AMH)and thyroid function[blood routine and blood clotting for patients with abnormal uterine bleeding(AUB)]were measured,and the diameter of ovarian cyst and the thickness of endometrium were examined.The clinical characteristics of the patients with follicular cysts complicated by menstrual disorders were described and compared with each other among the three age groups.Results ① Among 178 patients,61(34.3%)patients presented with complaints of cessation of regular menstruation or amenorrhea and 117(65.7%)with complaints of AUB.Out of 178 patients,13(7.3%)patients developed anemia due to AUB,and all the patients were treated with medication.② Follicular cysts disappeared in 1 month for 124(69.7%)patients,disappeared in 2 months for 176(98.9%)patients,and disappeared in 3 months for 178(100%)patients.A total of 177(99.4%)patients had follicular cysts with a diameter less than 5 cm,and only 1(0.6%)patient had follicular cysts with a diameter≥5 cm.③ The overall prevalence of diminished ovarian reserve(DOR)in patients with follicular cysts complicated by menstrual disorders was 82.0%,and the prevalence of DOR was 70.2%for the patients under 40 years old.The prevalence of DOR in three age groups was 37.0%(10/27),81.8%(63/77),and 98.6%(73/74),respectively.The prevalence of DOR gradually increased with age.④ The median AMH values for Group 1,Group 2,and Group 3 were 1.55,0.51,and 0.15 ng/mL,respectively.The FSH level in Group 3 was significantly higher than that in Groups 1 and 2(adjusted P<0.05),while the AMH level was significantly lower than that in Groups 1 and 2(adjusted P<0.05).The AMH level in Group 2 was lower than that in Group 1(adjusted P<0.05).Conclusion Patients with follicular cysts complicated by menstrual disorders are recommended to receive medication treatment,rather than just expecting treatment.The prevalence of DOR in patients with follicular cysts complicated by menstrual disorders is significantly higher than that in normal women,even in women younger than 40 years old.Therefore,it is essential to evaluate the ovarian reserve of these patients while treating menstrual disorders,particularly for young women with fertility needs.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of peripheral blood monocyte subset analysis in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) .Method:We retrospectively enrolled 51 patients newly diagnosed with CMML at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital between June 1, 2020, and December 31, 2024, according to the WHO 2022 diagnostic criteria. Twenty-three patients with other myeloid neoplasms (excluding CMML) and peripheral monocytosis (absolute count ≥0.5×10 9/L and percentage ≥10%) were included as the control group. All patients underwent bone marrow aspiration for examinations including bone marrow smears, biopsies, cytogenetics, and gene mutation analysis to establish a definitive diagnosis. Concurrently, flow cytometry was used to determine the proportions of peripheral blood monocyte subsets: classical (MO1, CD14 +CD16 -) , intermediate (MO2, CD14 +CD16 +) , and non-classical (MO3, CD14 lowCD16 +) . Differences between the groups were compared, and diagnostic efficacy was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Result:Among the 51 CMML patients, the proportion of the peripheral blood MO1 subset was significantly higher than that in patients with other myeloid neoplasms ( P=0.027) , whereas there were no significant differences in the MO2 and MO3 subsets (all P>0.05) . Further analysis revealed that 43 (84.31%) of the CMML patients met the WHO diagnostic threshold for the MO1 subset (≥94%) , while the remaining 8 patients did not; 46 patients (90.20%) had MO3 subset proportions below the threshold proposed by Hudson (≤1.13%) , while the remaining 5 patients were above this threshold. In-depth analysis showed that among the 8 patients who did not meet the WHO criteria, 7 were experiencing inflammation. Similarly, all 5 patients who did not meet the Hudson criteria were in an inflammatory state. Subsequent ROC curve analysis of this cohort identified a cut-off value for the MO1 subset of 97.55% [Area Under the Curve (AUC) =0.661, P=0.027], which aligns with the WHO criteria. Conclusion:Peripheral blood monocyte subset analysis, particularly MO1 subset analysis, can effectively assist in CMML diagnosis, but exclusion of inflammatory conditions is required.

ObjectiveTo explore the differences in the accumulation of secondary metabolites of Dendrobium nobile cultivated on epiphytic stones and trees， so as to elucidate the scientific connotation of "only those that grow on stones has superior quality"， and provide a direction for the cultivation and quality evaluation of D. nobile. MethodsUltra-performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole/linear ion trap mass spectrometry（UPLC-QTRAP-MS/MS）-based widely targeted metabolomics was used to detect the metabolites of D. nobile cultivated on epiphytic stones and trees. And the combination of principal component analysis（PCA）， hierarchical cluster analysis（HCA）， and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA） was performed for multivariate statistical analysis of metabolites. Differential metabolites were screened by variable importance in the projection（VIP） value≥1 and log₂fold change（FC）≥1 or ≤-1， and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes（KEGG） enrichment analysis was conducted. ResultsA total of 1 267 metabolites were identified in the stems of D. nobile from the two cultivation modes， dominated by flavonoids（292）， phenolic acids（284）， and alkaloids（189）. Through OPLS-DA screening， 473 differential metabolites were obtained. Compared to epiphytic tree-cultivated D. nobile， epiphytic stone-cultivated D. nobile exhibited upregulation of flavonoids， phenolic acids， alkaloids， lignans and coumarins， while quinones and terpenoids were down-regulated. The differential metabolites mainly included flavonoid glycosides and alkaloids， and these differential metabolites significantly contributed to characterizing the two cultivation patterns. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed significant enrichment in pathways of flavone and flavonol biosynthesis， flavonoid biosynthesis， tyrosine metabolism， and phenylalanine metabolism in epiphytic stone-cultivated D. nobile. ConclusionEpiphytic stone cultivation is beneficial for the accumulation of phenolic acids， flavonoids， and alkaloids in D. nobile， indicating that the "only those that grow on stones has superior quality" documented in the materia medica has certain scientific basis， and the findings also provide a reference for quality evaluation and discrimination research between epiphytic stone and tree cultivated D. nobile.

ObjectiveTo investigate the processing technology of calcined Haematitum based on the concept of quality by design（QbD） and to assess its health risk. MethodsTaking whole iron content， Fe²⁺ dissolution content and looseness as critical quality attributes（CQAs）， and calcination temperature， calcination time， spreading thickness and particle size as critical process parameters（CPPs） determined by the failure mode and effect analysis（FMEA）， the processing technology of calcined Haematitum was optimized by orthogonal test combined with analytic hierarchy process-criteria importance through intercriteria correlation（AHP-CRITIC） hybrid weighting method. The contents of heavy metals and harmful elements were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry， and the health risk assessment was carried out by daily exposure（EXP）， target hazard quotient（THQ） and lifetime cancer risk（LCR）， and the theoretical value of the maximum limit was deduced. ResultsThe optimal processing technology for calcined Haematitum was calcination at 650 ℃， calcination time of 1 h， particle size of 0.2-0.5 cm， spreading thickness of 1 cm， and vinegar quenching for 1 time［Haematitum-vinegar（10：3）］. The contents of 5 heavy metals and harmful elements in 13 batches of calcined Haematitum were all decreased with reductions of up to 5-fold. The cumulative THQ of 2 batches of samples was>1， while the cumulative THQ of all batches of Haematitum was>1. The LCR of As in 1 batches of Haematitum was 1×10^-6-1×10^-4， and the LCR of the rest was<1×10^-6， and the LCRs of calcined Haematitum were all<1×10^-6， indicating that the carcinogenic risk of calcined Haematitum was low， but special attention should still be paid to Haematitum medicinal materials. Preliminary theoretical values of the maximum limits of Cu， As， Cd， Pb and Hg were formulated as 1 014， 25， 17， 27， 7 mg·kg^-1. ConclusionThe optimized processing technology of calcined Haematitum is stable and feasible， and the contents of heavy metals and harmful elements are reduced after processing. Preliminary theoretical values of the maximum limits of Cu， As， Cd， Pb and Hg are formulated to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of standards for the limits of harmful elements in Haematitum.

Objective:To explore the causes of lack of compliance with life care in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation recipients while living alone in the transplant warehouse, and to provide a basis for developing targeted promotion measures.Methods:Using purposive sampling method, from June to December 2023, on-site observations were conducted on the voluntary completion of life care by hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients (with a 30 day observation period) admitted to the Blood Transplantation Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University. The compliance was calculated after the observation period. Patients with a compliance of less than 80% were selected, and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 of them after informed consent. The Colaizzi 7-step analysis method was applied to organize and analyze the interview data.Results:Three core themes on lack of compliance were distilled, namely physical factors impeding compliance (somatic specific symptoms leading to distraction, somatic non-specific symptoms leading to activity intolerance), psychological factors impeding compliance (negative emotions, comfort zone dilemmas, regression phenomena, constraints of personality psychological traits), and cognitive factors impeding compliance (subjective cognitive unperceived benefit, poor modeling resulting in cognitive biases, limited perceived attention) .Conclusions:The behavioral causes of lack of compliance with life care of hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients while living alone in the transplant warehouse are due to multiple factors of the body and mind, among which psychologically mediated mechanisms are key to compliance. Healthcare professionals should pay attention to both the physiological and psychological needs of patients, actively alleviate physical symptoms, appropriately provide psychological care to remove psychological barriers, help them actively seek family and social support, and promote cognitive improvement, thereby improving compliance.
