In this paper, by referring to ancient and modern literature, the textual research of Inulae Flos has been conducted to clarify the name, origin, production area, quality evaluation, harvesting, processing and others, so as to provide reference and basis for the development and utilization of famous classical formulas containing this herb. After textual research, it could be verified that the medicinal use of Inulae Flos was first recorded in Shennong Bencaojing of the Han dynasty. In successive dynasties, Xuanfuhua has been taken as the official name, and it also has other alternative names such as Jinfeicao, Daogeng and Jinqianhua. The period before the Song and Yuan dynasties, the main origin of Inulae Flos was the Asteraceae plant Inula japonica, and from the Ming and Qing dynasties to the present, I. japonica and I. britannica are the primary source. In addition to the dominant basal species, there are also regional species such as I. linariifolia, I. helianthus-aquatili, and I. hupehensis. The earliest recorded production areas in ancient times were Henan, Hubei and other places, and the literature records that it has been distributed throughout the country since modern times. The medicinal part is its flower, the harvesting and processing method recorded in the past dynasties is mainly harvested in the fifth and ninth lunar months, and dried in the sun, and the modern harvesting is mostly harvested in summer and autumn when the flowers bloom, in order to remove impurities, dry in the shade or dry in the sun. In addition, the roots, whole herbs and aerial parts are used as medicinal materials. In ancient times, there were no records about the quality of Inulae Flos, and in modern times, it is generally believed that the quality of complete flower structure, small receptacles, large blooms, yellow petals, long filaments, many fluffs, no fragments, and no branches is better. Ancient processing methods primarily involved cleaning, steaming, and sun-drying, supplemented by techniques such as boiling, roasting, burning, simmering, stir-frying, and honey-processing. Modern processing focuses mainly on cleaning the stems and leaves before use. Regarding the medicinal properties, ancient texts describe it as salty and sweet in taste, slightly warm in nature, and mildly toxic. Modern studies characterize it as bitter, pungent, and salty in taste, with a slightly warm nature. Its therapeutic effects remain consistent across eras, including descending Qi, resolving phlegm, promoting diuresis, and stopping vomiting. Based on the research results, it is recommended that when developing famous classical formulas containing Inulae Flos, either I. japonica or I. britannica should be used as the medicinal source. Processing methods should follow formula requirements, where no processing instructions are specified, the raw products may be used after cleaning.

ObjectiveThis paper aims to observe the protective effect of Huamoyan granules on knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and explore whether its protective effect is oriented toward an anti-inflammatory direction by regulation of macrophage polarization, which can effectively inhibit the progression of pathological inflammatory response, reduce the release of inflammatory pain mediators, and downregulate the protein expression level of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), so as to provide experimental evidence for its clinical application and investigate its action mechanism. MethodsAfter adaptive feeding, Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into six groups: sham group, model group, celecoxib group, and high, medium, and low-dose synovitis granule groups (9.6, 4.8, 2.4 g·kg-1). The administration dose of celecoxib capsules was 20 mg·kg-1. There were 10 rats in the sham group and 12 rats in the model group and each administration group. A KOA animal model was established by means of intra-articular injection of sodium iodoacetate into the knee joint. From the 10th day of the experiment, each administration group was given intragastric administration at a dose of 10 mL·kg-1 for 4 weeks. General conditions of rats in each group were assessed daily. The pressure pain threshold (PPT) to mechanical stimulation and joint diameter were recorded. X-ray examination was performed on the right knee joints of rats for imaging analysis. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to detect the tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), serum interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and other pro-inflammatory cytokines in rat serum samples, as well as the expression levels of neurogenic inflammatory mediators such as nerve growth factor (NGF) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). Histopathological changes in the knee joint synovial tissues were examined by hematoxylineosin (HE) staining. Safranin O-fast green staining was performed to observe and evaluate the degree of knee cartilage lesions. Western blot was employed to quantitatively analyze TRPV1, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK), and phosphorylated (p)-p38 MAPK in rat knee synovial tissues. Immunofluorescence (IF) was used to measure and assess M1/M2 macrophage polarization. ResultsCompared with those in the sham group, the circumference and joint diameter of the right knee were markedly enlarged in the model group (P<0.01), while PPTs of rats showed a significant reduction (P<0.01). The contents of IL-1β, TNF-α, CGRP, and NGF in rats' serum were significantly elevated (P<0.01), and the synovial Krenn score was increased (P<0.01). The Mankin score of cartilage tissue was increased (P<0.01), and the protein expressions of TRPV1 and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK were significantly upregulated (P<0.01). The experimental intervention significantly reduced the proportion of pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages in the total macrophage population (P<0.01), and the percentage of M2 macrophages was decreased (P<0.01). The M1/M2 macrophage ratio was significantly elevated (P<0.01). Knee joint diameters of all dose groups of Huamoyan granules and the celecoxib group were reduced (P<0.01) compared with those of the model group, and the PPT recovery speeds in the high and medium-dose groups of Huamoyan granules were more obvious (P<0.05). The contents of IL-1β, CGRP, and NGF in the rats' serum in all administration groups were significantly reduced (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the content of TNF-α in rats' serum was significantly reduced (P<0.01). All dose groups of Huamoyan granules demonstrated significant reductions in both synovial Krenn score (P<0.05, P<0.01) and protein expression of TRPV1 and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK in rats' synovial tissues (P<0.01). The percentage of M1 macrophages in the synovial tissues of the celecoxib group and all dose groups of Huamoyan granules was decreased (P<0.01). The percentage of M2 macrophages was increased (P<0.05), and the M1/M2 ratio was decreased (P<0.01). ConclusionHuamoyan granules can alleviate the inflammatory response of KOA, reduce the release of inflammatory pain mediators, and downregulate TRPV1 protein expression by regulating macrophage polarization. Its mechanism may be related to the TRPV1/p38 MAPK signaling pathway, thereby achieving the effect of improving peripheral pain hypersensitivity in KOA.

Objective:To investigate the effects of multimodal and multisensory stimulation training on feeding-swallowing and neurological functions in stroke patients with dysphagia.Methods:Stroke patients with dysphagia treated at Henan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2023 to October 2024 were enrolled. Patients were randomly divided into three groups according to the random number table method, with 36 patients in each group. These three groups underwent different interventions for a period of 8 weeks: multisensory stimulation intervention (stimulation group), multimodal rehabilitation training intervention (rehabilitation group), and innovative multimodal and multisensory stimulation training intervention (combined group). The Kubota water swallow test and functional oral intake scale (FOIS) were used to assess the effective improvement rate of feeding function. Differences in scores of modified Mann assessment of swallowing (MMASA), swallowing quality of life (SWAL-QOL), and National Institute of Health Stroke scale (NIHSS) among the three groups were compared before intervention, and at 4 and 8 weeks post-intervention. SPSS 27.0 software was used to analyze the data by one-way ANOVA, repeated measures ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis H test, Mann-Whitney U test and Pearson correlation analysis. Results:(1) After 8 weeks of intervention, the effective improvement rates of feeding function were 75.00%(27/36) and 72.22%(26/36) in the stimulation group and rehabilitation group, respectively, which were both lower than that in the combined group (94.44%(34/36), both P<0.05). (2) The interaction effect between time and group was significant in MMASA scores among the three groups before and after intervention ( F=2.569, P<0.05). MMASA scores at 8 weeks post-intervention were higher than those at 4 weeks post-intervention and baseline in all groups (all P<0.05), and scores at 4 weeks post-intervention were also higher than those at baseline (all P<0.05). At 4 and 8 weeks post-intervention, MMASA scores in the combined group (85.64±11.26, 92.56±10.55) were higher than those in the stimulation group (73.52±12.65, 82.97±12.84) and rehabilitation group (72.47±11.38, 84.39±12.29) (all P<0.05). (3) The interaction effect between time and group was significant in SWAL-QOL total scores among the three groups before and after intervention ( F=18.561, P<0.05). SWAL-QOL total scores at 8 weeks post-intervention were higher than those at 4 weeks post-intervention and baseline in all groups ( P<0.05), and scores at 4 weeks post-intervention were also higher than those at baseline (all P<0.05). At 4 and 8 weeks post-intervention, SWAL-QOL total scores in the combined group (115.64±9.26, 135.68±9.55) were higher than those in the stimulation group (108.42±8.65, 113.75±8.84) and rehabilitation group (108.37±8.38, 114.39±9.29) (all P<0.05). (4) The interaction effect between time and group was significant in NIHSS scores among the three groups before and after intervention ( F=7.890, P<0.05). NIHSS scores at 8 weeks post-intervention were lower than those at 4 weeks post-intervention and baseline in all groups (all P<0.05), and scores at 4 weeks post-intervention were also lower than those at baseline (all P<0.05). At 4 and 8 weeks post-intervention, NIHSS scores in the combined group (8.36±1.35, 5.22±1.05) were lower than those in the stimulation group (11.65±2.11, 8.78±1.12) and rehabilitation group (11.32±2.03, 8.36±1.17) (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Multimodal and multisensory stimulation training can improve feeding-swallowing function and neurological impairment in stroke patients with dysphagia, with intervention effects superior to those of either approach used alone.

At 4 and 8 weeks post-intervention, SWAL-QOL total scores in the combined group (115.64±9.26, 135.68±9.55) were higher than those in the stimulation group (108.42±8.65, 113.75±8.84) and rehabilitation group (108.37±8.38, 114.39±9.29) (all P<0.05). (4) The interaction effect between time and group was significant in NIHSS scores among the three groups before and after intervention ( F=7.890, P<0.05). NIHSS scores at 8 weeks post-intervention were lower than those at 4 weeks post-intervention and baseline in all groups (all P<0.05), and scores at 4 weeks post-intervention were also lower than those at baseline (all P<0.05). At 4 and 8 weeks post-intervention, NIHSS scores in the combined group (8.36±1.35, 5.22±1.05) were lower than those in the stimulation group (11.65±2.11, 8.78±1.12) and rehabilitation group (11.32±2.03, 8.36±1.17) (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Multimodal and multisensory stimulation training can improve feeding-swallowing function and neurological impairment in stroke patients with dysphagia, with intervention effects superior to those of either approach used alone.
