ObjectiveTo analyze the differences in color， odor and volatile components of Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium（CRP） before and after being stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum， and to explore the material basis of enhancing the effect of strengthening spleen after processing and the scientific connotation of decoction pieces processed with Halloysitum Rubrum as the auxiliary material. MethodsThe volatile components of the samples before and after processing were identified and relatively quantified by headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（HS-GC-MS）， and the volatile components were analyzed by principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA）. According to the principle of variable importance in the projection（VIP） value>1.5， volatile differential components before and after processing were screened. And combined with intelligent sensory technologies such as colorimeter and electronic nose， the chroma and odor information of CRP before and after being stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum were identified. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between volatile differential components and chroma values. ResultsA total of 112 volatile components were identified from CRP and CRP stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum， of which 84 were from CRP and 97 were from CRP stir-fried with Halloysitum Rubrum. And 7 differential components were selected， including α-pinene， β-myrcene， linalool， sabinene， ocimene isomer mixture， A-ocimene， and δ-elemene. After being processed with Halloysitum Rubrum， the brightness value（L^*）， yellow-blue value（b^*） and total chromatic value（E^*_ab） of CRP were decreased（P<0.01）， and red-green value（a^*） was increased（P<0.01）， the response values of S4， S5， S10 and S13 sensors were significantly increased（P<0.05）， and the response values of S3 and S8 sensors were significantly decreased（P<0.05）. Correlation analysis showed that α-pinene and β-myrcene were negatively correlated with L^* and E^*_ab， but positively correlated with a^*. Sabinene was positively correlated with L^* and E^*_ab. Linalool was positively correlated with L^* and E^*_ab， and negatively correlated with a^*. The ocimene isomer mixture was positively correlated with the L^*. ConclusionAfter being processed with Halloysitum Rubrum， the appearance color， odor and volatile components of CRP change significantly， and α-pinene， β-myrcene， sabinene， linalool and A-ocimene are the characteristic volatile components before and after processing， which can provide references for the quality evaluation and clinical application of CRP and its processed products.

Objective To analyze the factors influencing the deterioration of nutritional status after radiotherapy/radiochemotherapy for esophageal cancer,so as to provide reference for nutritional management during antitumor therapy.Methods A total of 106 patients with esophageal cancer who received radiotherapy or radiochemotherapy at Anqing First People's Hospital of Anhui Medical University from Dec.2017 to Dec.2023 were enrolled.Patients'gender,age,surgical history,timing of radiotherapy intervention,synchronous chemoradiotherapy,radiotherapy dose,clinical stage,initial nutritional status,and performance status score were collected.The patient generated subjective global assessment scale(PG-SGA)scores were monitored before and after antitumor treatment.According to the nutritional status at the beginning of enrollment and at the end of radiotherapy,the patients were assigned to deterioration group or non-deterioration(stable or improved)group.The clinical characteristics of the 2 groups were compared.The factors influencing the deterioration of nutritional status were screened by logistic regression analysis.The correlation between nutritional status deterioration and adverse reactions(radiation esophagitis,pulmonary infection,neutropenia,thrombocytopenia,and elevated aminotransferase)was analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis.Results There were no significant differences in gender,radiotherapy dose,initial nutritional status,or performance status score between the 2 groups for the deterioration of nutritional status after radiotherapy(all P＞0.05).The proportions of patients with previous surgical history of esophageal cancer,synchronous chemoradiotherapy,initiation of radiotherapy at less than 90%of target calorie requirement,and clinical stage Ⅳ were significantly higher in the deterioration group than those in the non-deterioration group(all P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that clinical stage Ⅳ(odds ratio[OR]=4.684,95%confidence interval[CI]1.252-17.519,P=0.022)and previous surgical history of esophageal cancer(OR=7.338,95%CI 1.878-28.666,P=0.004)were the independent adverse risk factors for the deterioration of nutritional status after radiotherapy/radiochemotherapy.The timing of radiotherapy intervention was also an independent risk factor for the deterioration of nutritional status,and taking the tolerance of 70%-90%target energy as the reference level,starting radiotherapy when the tolerance of 90%-100%target energy had the optimal protection of nutritional status(OR=0.166,95%CI 0.050-0.551,P=0.003).Spearman correlation analysis showed that the deterioration of nutritional status was positively correlated with elevated transaminases after radiotherapy(rs=0.283,P=0.003),while it was not correlated with the other adverse reactions(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Under the standard nutritional intervention model,patients with previous surgery and recurrent metastatic esophageal cancer who receive radiotherapy/chemoradiotherapy are still at risk of nutritional status deterioration.Tolerance to 90%-100%target energy requirement may be a more appropriate timing for radiotherapy intervention.When the nutritional status deteriorates during treatment,it is necessary to be alert to the elevated transaminases.

By consulting relevant literature of ancient herbal books and processing specifications， this paper made a systematic research and analysis of Ostreae Concha， including the name， producing area， harvesting， quality， historical evolution of processing， relevant processing specifications， modern processing technology， and changes in chemical composition and pharmacological effects before and after processing， in order to provide documentary evidence for the research on processing technology and the establishment of quality standards. According to the textual research， it is known that Ostreae Concha has a long history of being used in medicine， and there have been many aliases and local names in each historical period. Shennong's Classic of the Materia Medica（Shennong Bencaojing） began to use Muli as the correct name， which has continued to use to today， and there were also aliases such as Muge， Zuogu Muli and Haoke. Ostreae Concha has a wide range of localities and irregular harvesting periods. The ancients believed that its left shell was of superior quality， but this has not been seen in modern. And there were many kinds of processing methods of Ostreae Concha， such as grinding， roasting， calcining， frying， simmering， quenching and so on， and the calcining was still in use. The different editions of Chinese Pharmacopoeia from 1963 to 2020 contain only calcined Ostreae Concha， and the local processing specifications mainly include three kinds of processed products（calcined products， salt-soaked products and vinegar-soaked products）. Modern processing research mainly focuses on process optimization， changes in chemical composition and pharmacological effects， and the research methods are relatively single. Overall， there are currently issues such as inconsistent processing standards， unclear process parameters and imperfect quality standards， which are not conducive to the quality control and standardized clinical use of Ostreae Concha. Therefore， it is necessary to further investigate the pharmacological substance basis of Ostreae Concha and its processed products in order to elucidate the processing mechanism， standardize the processing technology and improve the quality standard.

Objective This study aims to use subjective and objective evaluation indicators to accurately calculate the relative weights of various factors that affect blood glucose control in gestational diabetes and provide scientific basis for the formu-lation of clinical nutrition intervention plans and support for the evaluation of blood sugar intervention effects in the late stage of pregnancy.Methods The fuzzy analytic hierarchy process(FAHP)was used to construct a hierarchical model of nutrition man-agement for patients with gestational diabetes,calculate the weights of each criterion layer in detail,and integrate them with the weight adjustment coefficients of scoring experts to form a mathematical model for nutrition management of gestational diabetes.Results Based on 14 valid expert feedback questionnaires,the relative weights of the first,second,and 29 end indicators were calculated.The weights of the first indicators were nutrition assessment indicators for gestational diabetes(0.34142105),formu-lation of nutrition management plans for gestational diabetes(0.331055183),and implementation of nutrition management plans(0.327923333).The largest weights in the second indicators were laboratory indicators(0.110385024)and meal plans(0.117342182).Conclusion The fuzzy analytic hierarchy process can accurately estimate the relative weights of factors affect-ing personalized nutrition management in gestational diabetes,providing a theoretical basis for blood sugar management during the entire pregnancy.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of kinesiophobia in chronic pain patients undergoing conservative treatment for lumbar disc herniation (LDH), providing reference and basis for reducing the occurrence of kinesiophobia in this patient population.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted from May 2023 to January 2024. A convenience sample of chronic pain patients undergoing conservative treatment for LDH in Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital was selected as the study population. Data were collected by the general information questionnaire, Numerical Rating Scale, Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia-11, Psychological Inflexibility in Pain Scale, and Chronic Pain Self-efficacy Scale. A random forest model was constructed to rank variable importance, and binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of kinesiophobia.Results:The effective response rate of the questionnaire was 96.8% (270/279). Among 270 patients, there were 139 males and 131 females, 92 patients aged 18-40 years, 132 patients aged 41-60 years, and 46 patients aged >60 years old. The total kinesiophobia score for chronic pain patients undergoing conservative treatment for LDH was (31.00 ± 5.09) points, with a kinesiophobia prevalence of 79.6% (215/270). The random forest algorithm identified eight influencing factors: pain self-efficacy, psychological flexibility, physical exercise after low back pain onset, duration of pain, pain status, understanding of LDH, marital status, and pain intensity. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that physical exercise after low back pain onset ( OR=0.583, 95% CI 0.344-0.986), pain status ( OR=0.424, 95% CI 0.206-0.873), psychological flexibility ( OR=1.102, 95% CI 1.052-1.155), pain self-efficacy ( OR=0.923, 95% CI 0.895-0.953) were significant influencing factors of kinesiophobia in chronic pain patients undergoing conservative treatment for LDH (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The prevalence of kinesiophobia is high among chronic pain patients undergoing conservative treatment for LDH. Physical exercise after low back pain onset, pain status, psychological flexibility, and pain self-efficacy are significant influencing factors. Healthcare professionals should pay increased attention to kinesiophobia in chronic pain patients undergoing conservative treatment for LDH and implement targeted early interventions to reduce its occurrence.

Objective To investigate the effects of exosomes derived from hypoxia-treated mesenchymal stem cells on chondrocyte injury.Methods After mesenchymal stem cells were subjected to hypoxic treatment,the secreted exosomes were collected and co-cultured with IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytes.Cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 assay,while apoptosis was evaluated by flow cytometry and the measurement of Caspase-3 and PARP activities.Intracellular levels of ROS,Fe2+,and MDA were quantified using commercial assay kits.The expression of GPX4,SLC7A11,and ACSL4 was analyzed at both mRNA and protein levels via qRT-PCR and Western blot,respectively.Additionally,the secretion of COL2A1,MMP13,ADAMTS5,TNF-α,IL-6,and PGE2 was determined by ELISA.Results Chondrocyte viability was significantly enhanced following the uptake of exosomes derived from hypoxia-treated mesenchymal stem cells(H-Exo)(P<0.05).IL-1β treatment reduced chondrocyte viability,increased Caspase-3 and PARP activities,and promoted apoptosis(P<0.05);however,H-Exo effectively reversed IL-1 β-induced apoptotic effects.Furthermore,IL-1 β markedly down-regulated the expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11,up-regulated ACSL4 expression,and elevated intracellular levels of ROS,Fe2+,and MDA(P<0.05),indicating the induction of ferroptosis.Both the ferroptosis inhibitor and H-Exo significantly attenuated IL-1β-triggered ferroptosis,and H-Exo counteracted the detrimental effects of IL-1β as well as those induced by a ferroptosis inducer.Additionally,IL-1β suppressed the expression of the chondrogenic marker COL2A1,up-regulated the catabolic enzymes MMP13 and ADAMTS5,and enhanced the secretion of pro-inflammatory cyto-kines TNF-α,IL-6,and PGE2(P<0.05).Notably,H-Exo alleviated IL-1β-mediated inflammation and restored the balance between chondrogenic anabolism and catabolism.Conclusions Exosomes secreted by mesenchymal stem cells under hypoxic conditions can effectively inhibit chondrocyte apoptosis and ferroptosis,thereby alleviating cellular injury.These findings suggest that such exosomes exert a protective effect on chondrocytes and hold prom-ise as a novel therapeutic strategy for cartilage repair.

Objective:To analyze the anatomical characteristics and surgical management measures of acute Stanford type A aortic dissection (AAD) involving coronary arteries, and to preliminarily explore the clinical efficacy of different coronary artery treatment techniques.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 42 patients who underwent surgery for AAD involving coronary arteries in Hunan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2022 to May 2025. They were divided into the MI group (14 cases) and the nMI group (28 cases) according to whether they had acute myocardial infarction before surgery. The clinical data such as the actual surgical methods and mortality in the two groups were summarized.Results:Among 294 surgeries, 42 cases (14.3%) had definite coronary artery involvement, including 14 cases in the MI group and 28 cases in the nMI group; 1 case had bilateral coronary artery involvement and 41 cases had right coronary artery involvement. Regarding injury types: 16 cases were of the coronary trunk compression type, 12 cases were of the sinus intimal tear neal to ostium type, and 14 cases were of the coronary trunk intimal type. There was no statistically significant difference in the types of coronary artery involvement between the two groups ( P>0.05). There were 18 cases of Sun′s procedure with preserved aortic sinus and aortic valve, 7 cases of Bentall procedure without bypass, and 17 cases of Bentall procedure plus bypass. There was no statistically significant difference in the surgical plans between the two groups ( P>0.05). There were 4 deaths within 30 days (2 cases in each group). Conclusions:AAD involving coronary arteries is a critical condition, and accurate diagnosis is somewhat difficult. Myocardial ischemia is not significantly associated with the type of coronary artery involvement. The surgical plan depends on the type of coronary artery involvement. The classification method in this study is conducive to selecting appropriate surgical methods and improving surgical prognosis.

Objective To investigate the types of latent profiles and influencing factors of knowledge,attitudes and practice(KAP)in curriculum-based ideological and political education in undergraduate nursing students and to provide evidence for design of ideological and political courses tailored to different types of nursing undergraduates.Methods A convenience sampling method was used to recruit 671 undergraduate nursing students from our school between March and July 2024.Data were collected using a general data survey form,a KAP questionnaire on nursing curriculum-based ideological and political education,a professional identity survey for nursing undergraduates,and the Jefferson empathy scale nursing student edition(JSPE-NS).Latent profile analysis(LPA)was conducted using 22 items of the KAP questionnaire as observed variables,and a logistic regression analysis was used to assess the influencing factors of different KAP latent profiles in ideological and political education.Results A total of 663 nursing undergraduate students completed the survey.They spread in three latent groups:a mediocre group(172/663,25.9%),a competent group(378/663,57.0%),and an exceptional group(113/663,17.1%).From a single-child family,grade point average(GPA),professional identity and empathy were identified as the factors that influenced KAP latent profiles in curriculum based ideological and political education among the undergraduate nursing students(all P<0.05).Conclusion There exists a heterogeneity in KAP in curriculum based ideological and political education among the undergraduate nursing students.Nursing educators should develop targeted enhancement measures according to the characteristics of latent profile groups therefore to facilitate the comprehensive development of the undergraduate nursing students.
