OBJECTIVE To study the extraction process of Hongqijin granules with the standard decoction of Hongqijin formula as the reference. METHODS Fifteen batches of Hongqijin formula standard decoction were prepared. The reference characteristic chromatogram was established， and the chromatographic similarity was calculated. The average extraction yield and average transfer rates of calycosin-7-glucoside， salidroside， curcumin， and emodin of the 15 batches of standard decoction were determined. Taking soaking time， water addition amount， and decoction time as influencing factors， and extraction yield， transfer rates of marker components， as well as chromatographic similarity with the reference characteristic chromatogram as evaluation indexes， orthogonal test combined with principal component analysis was adopted to optimize the extraction process of Hongqijin granules， followed by process verification. RESULTS The average extraction yield of 15 batches of Hongqijin formula standard decoction was 32.55%. The average transfer rates of calycosin-7-glucoside， salidroside， curcumin， and emodin were 70.68%， 74.35%， 2.16%， and 4.62%， respectively. The optimal extraction process of Hongqijin granules was confirmed as follows： extraction was carried out twice； the first extraction used 8-fold water for 60 min， and the second extraction adopted 6.5-fold water for 45 min. In three validation tests， the average extraction yield was 33.01%. The average transfer rates of the four marker components were 79.51%， 75.54%， 1.84%， and 4.30%， with all RSD values less than 2%. The chromatographic similarities between the extracting solution and reference characteristic chromatogram were all higher than 0.990. CONCLUSIONS The optimized extraction process of Hongqijin granules exhibits good stability， and the material basis of the extracting solution is consistent with that of Hongqijin formula standard decoction.

Objective: To improve the efficiency and standardization of preoperative anemia diagnosis and treatment by establishing a systematic intelligent management platform for preoperative anemia. Methods: A multidisciplinary collaborative model was adopted to develop a preoperative anemia management system that integrates intelligent early warning, standardized treatment pathways, and quality control. The system utilizes natural language processing technology to automatically capture laboratory data and establish evidence-based medical decision support functions. A pre-post study design was employed to compare changes in preoperative anemia screening rates, preoperative anemia intervention rates, reasonable use of iron supplements, and perioperative red blood cell transfusion rates before and after system implementation. Results: After system implementation, the standardization of anemia diagnosis and treatment significantly improved: 1) Screening effectiveness: The anemia screening rate increased to 50.00% (an increase of 27.24%); 2) Intervention effectiveness: The anemia treatment rate rose to 56.30% (an increase of 14.02%); 3) Treatment standardization: The reasonable use rate of iron supplements increased to 55.33% (an increase of 21.02%); the red blood cell transfusion rate decreased to 18.29% (a decrease of 4.07%), and the amount of red blood cell transfusions was reduced by 291 units. Conclusion: This system achieves full-process management of preoperative anemia through information technology, significantly enhancing the standardization of diagnosis and treatment as well as intervention effectiveness, providing an effective solution for perioperative anemia management.

Objective　To investigate the expression of neutrophil elastase (ELANE) mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) under different infection states of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), and analyze the feasibility of ELANE as a diagnostic marker for MTB infection. Methods　PBMCs were isolated from peripheral blood of active tuberculosis patients (ATB), latent infection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (LTBI) and healthy control (HC) Luanzhou People's Hospital, Hebei Province, February-November 2023 and cell RNA was extracted. After reversing into cDNA, the difference of ELANE mRNA level in PBMCs in each group was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR. The whole cell lysate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv was used to stimulate PBMCs in each group, and total RNA was extracted. Fluorescence quantitative PCR was also used to detect the expression differences of ELANE gene before and after cell stimulation in each group; these expression differences were analyzed for identifying the feasibility of ATB. Results　The expression of ELANE gene in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of ATB patients was significantly higher than that of LTBI and healthy individuals (t=4.550, P<0.001; t=4.540, P<0.001). ROC analysis showed that the area under the curve for ELANE differential diagnosis of ATB and LTBI, ATB and HC were 0.802 and 0.805, respectively. H37Rv whole cell lysate can upregulate the expression of ELANE gene in PBMCs of ATB patients, with a significant difference before and after stimulation (t=4.717, P<0.001). However, there was no significant difference in ELANE gene expression in PBMCs of LTBI and HC populations before and after H37Rv bacterial lysate stimulation. Conclusion 　Compared with LTBI and healthy individuals, the expression level of ELANE mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of ATB was significantly upregulated; After stimulation with MTB whole cell lysate antigen, the expression level of ELANE in PBMCs of ATB population significantly increased. ELANE can serve as a diagnostic biomarker for active pulmonary tuberculosis to differentiate ATB from LTBI and healthy individuals.

Objective:To establish a rapid detection method for pathogenic microorganisms by combining loop-mediated isothermal amplification(LAMP)and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats(CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 12a(Cas12a)(CRISPR-Cas12a)system,and to evaluate its efficacy for detecting the thermolabile hemolysin(tlh)gene of Vibrio parahaemolyticus(Vp).Methods:Using the tlh gene of Vp as the target gene,LAMP primers and CRISPR RNA(crRNA)were designed to construct and optimize the optimal concentration ratio of each component in the LAMP-CRISPR detection system.Bacillus cereus,Staphylococcus aureus,and Escherichia coli were used as control groups,and the specificity,sensitivity,reproducibility and positive conformity rate were verified to establish a rapid LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12a method for detecting the tlh gene of Vp.Results:The method specifically detected Vp,while Bacillus cereus,Staphylococcus aureus,and Escherichia coli yielded negative results.The DNA extraction concentration of Vp was 190.67 mg·L-1 with an A(260)/(A280)ratio of 1.84.Under the reaction conditions of 37℃ with 80 cycles for 40 min using quantitative PCR(qPCR)method,when the concentrations of Cas12a protein and crRNA in the LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12a system were 50 nmol·L-1,the visual brightness and relative fluorescence intensity peaks were high.The sensitivity of LAMP CRISPR/Cas12a for detecting Vp DNA concentration could reach 10-6 mg·L-1.The reproducibility test results showed that different experimenters had consistent results in different experimental environments and times.Conclusion:The established LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12a method can rapidly detect the tlh gene of Vp with high sensitivity and specificity,and can achieve short-term visual detection in the field.

Background:To compare the efficacy and safety of monthly administrations of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists LY01005 and Zoladex ? in Chinese patients with premenopausal breast cancer. Methods:From October 2020 to November 2021, 188 premenopausal breast cancer patients were enrolled in 34 hospitals and randomized 1:1 to receive either LY01005 or Zoladex ? every 28 days for a total of three injections. All patients concomitantly received oral tamoxifen (TAM). The primary efficacy endpoint was cumulative probability of maintaining menopausal level [oestradiol (E2) ≤30 pg/ml] from day 29 to day 85. The second efficacy endpoint included changes in E2, luteinizing hormone (LH), and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) compared with the baseline. Pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and safety were analyzed. The study also evaluated the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of LY01005. Results:A total of 188 patients were randomised and 187 patients received either LY01005 or Zoladex ?. Cumulative probabilities of maintaining menopausal level (E2≤30 pg/ml) from day 29 to day 85 were 93.1% for LY01005 and 86.3% for Zoladex ?. The between-group difference was 6.8% (95% CI: -2.3%, 15.9%) and primary efficacy in the LY01005 group was not inferior to that in the Zoladex ? group. Changes in E2, LH, and FSH levels compared with the baseline were equivalent between the two groups (E2: 89.34% to 90.23% vs. 82.11% to 85.02%; LH: 88.89% to 95.52% vs. 89.70% to 97.02%; FSH: 75.36% to 80.85% vs.73.07% to 80.24%, respectively). After three consecutive doses of LY01005, the LH and FSH levels of the subjects showed a transient increase after the first dose, reached a peak on the second day and then started to decrease. The LH and FSH reached a lower level and remained at or below that level until the 85th day. Both treatments were well-tolerated. Conclusion:LY01005 is as effective as Zoladex ? in suppressing E2 to menopausal levels in Chinese patients with premenopausal breast cancer, with a similar safety profile.

Objective:To establish a method of dual nueleic acid test strips for rapid detection of Bacillus cereus cytK and nhe toxin genes based on polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and colloidal gold technique,and to evaluate its specificity,sensitivity,repeatability and stability.Methods:Bacillus cereus DNA was extracted by boiling method.Specific primers were designed with Bacillus cereus cytK and nhe as the target genes.Clonal transformation was used to identify the PCR products.The optimal labeling amounts of colloidal gold-labeled streptavidin,quality control line(C line),cytK detection line(T1)and nhe detection line(T2)were determined.The nucleic acid test strips were assembled and its specificity,sensitivity,reproducibility and stability were evaluated.Results:The DNA concentration of Bacillus cereus was 248 mg·L-1,and the purities were 1.8-2.0.After cloning and plasmid sequencing,the similarities between the PCR products and the sequences of cytK and nhe registered in the GenBank database were 100％.Under the condition of pH 7.0,the optimal amount of streptavidin labeling per 200 μL of colloidal gold solution was 6.0 μL;the optimal marking amount was 2.00 g·L-1 for the quality control line(C line),0.550 g·L-1 for cytK gene detection line(T1)and 0.2 g·L-1 for nhe gene detection line(T2).In the specificity test,positive result on the test strips was seen only for Bacillus cereus,and no cross-reactivity was observed for Staphylococcus aureus,Escherichia coli,Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis,which were consistent with the electrophoresis results.Sensitivity assay showed that even when DNA concentration was reduced to 10-2 mg·L-1,three bands(C line,T1 line and T2 line)could be observed,and the detection limit of the test strip was one-tenth of agarose gel electrophoresis(10-1 mg·L-1).The nucleic acid test strips were verified by different operators in different laboratories,and the results were consistent.The stability of the test strips was verified at the 6th,9th and 12th months,and the results showed good stability.Conclusion:The dual nucleic acid test strip method established in this study can simutaneously detect the cytK and nhe toxin genes of Bacillus cereus with high sensitivity and specificity,achieving short-term visual detection.

Objective Based on the phosphatidylinositol kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(AKT)pathway and M2 polarization of macrophages,the effects of polydatin on malignant phenotype of osteosarcoma cells were investigated.Methods The macrophages were divided into M0 group,M2 group,polydatin group,and polydatin+PI3K pathway agonist 740Y-P group.The expression of arginase-1(Arg-1)and CD206 mRNAs and proteins in macrophages were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot.Western blot was used to detect p-PI3K/PI3K and p-AKT/AKT protein expression in macrophages.The osteosarcoma cells MG-63 were divided into control group,control group(RPMI-1640 medium culture),CM-M0 group(M0 group M0 macrophage supernatant is collected for osteosarcoma cells),CM-M2 group(M2 group M2 macrophage supernatant is collected for osteosarcoma cells),CM-polydatin group(M2 macrophage supernatant in the polydatin group was collected on osteosarcoma cells),and CM-polydatin+740Y-P group(M2 macrophage supernatant was collected on osteosarcoma cells in the CM-polydatin+740Y-P group).Edu staining assay was used to detect the proliferation of MG-63 cells.Scratches and Transwell assays were used to detect the migration and invasion of MG-63 cells.Results Compared with the M0 group,the Arg-1,CD206,IL-10,p-PI3K/PI3K,p-AKT/AKT increased in the M2 group significantly(P<0.05).Compared with the M2 group,the Arg-1,CD206,IL-10,p-PI3K/PI3K,p-AKT/AKT decreased in the polydatin group significantly(P<0.05).Compared with the polydatin group,the Arg-1,CD206,IL-10,p-PI3K/PI3K,p-AKT/AKT increased in the polydatin+740Y-P group significantly(P<0.05).Compared with the CM-M0 group,the proportion of Edu-positive cells in the CM-M2 group increased significantly(P<0.05),and MG-63 cell migration and invasion rates increased significantly(P<0.05).Compared with the CM-M2 group,the proportion of Edu-positive cells in the CM-polydatin group decreased significantly(P<0.05),and MG-63 cell migration and invasion rates decreased significantly(P<0.05).Compared with the CM-polydatin group,the proportion of Edu-positive cells in the CM-polydatin+740Y-P group increased significantly(P<0.05),and MG-63 cell migration and invasion rates increased significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion Polygonum cuspidatum can inhibit the proliferation,migration and invasion of osteosarcoma cells by inhibiting the M2 polarization of macrophages,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect of resveratrol(RES)on the function of osteoarthritis synovioblast(OA-FLS)and its molecular mechanism.Methods The purchased primary synovial cells were cultured to the third generation,and OA-FLS cell model was induced by IL-1β.The activity of FLS cells was observed by CCK-8 assay,and the appropriate RES intervention concentration was selected.The cells were divided into Control group,OA-FLS group,Low-RES group(1μmol/L)and High-RES group(5μmol/L).The effects of RES on the migration and invasion of OA-FLS were detected by cell scratch assay and Transwell assay.The effect of RES on OA-FLS apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry.The effects of RES on the expression of inflammatory factors in OA-FLS and re-lated proteins in NF-κB signaling pathway were detected by Western blot.Results The results of CCK-8 experiment showed that the concentration of RES above 10μmol/L significantly inhibited the viability of FLS cells,and the concentration of RES above 1 μmol/L and 5μmol/L had no significant effect on the viability of FLS cells.Compared with the Control group,the migration and invasion ability of OA-FLS group was enhanced,while the apoptosis ability was weakened,and the migration,invasion and apoptosis ability of OA-FLS group was significantly reversed after RES intervention.Western blot results showed that,compared with the Control group,the levels of inflammatory cytokines in OA-FLS group were increased,and the NF-κB signaling pathway was activated,while the treatment of OA-FLS with different concentrations of RES could reduce the expression of inflammatory cytokines and inhibit the transcription of nuclear fac-tors.Conclusion RES inhibited migration and invasion of OA-FLS,promoted apoptosis,and decreased the expression of inflammatory factors of OA-FLS,which may be related to the inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway by RES.
