OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects and mechanisms of Lycium ruthenicum Murr. in improving sleep. METHODS Network pharmacology was employed to identify the active components of L. ruthenicum and their associated disease targets， followed by enrichment analysis. A caffeine‑induced zebrafish model of sleep deprivation was established ， and the zebrafish were treated with L. ruthenicum Murr. extract （LRME） at concentrations of 0.1， 0.2 and 0.4 mg/mL， respectively； 24 h later， behavioral changes of zebrafish and pathological alterations in brain neurons were subsequently observed. The levels of inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 （IL-6）， IL-1β， IL-10， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）]， oxidative stress markers [superoxide dismutase （SOD）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px）， catalase （CAT）]， and neurotransmitters [5- hydroxytryptamine （5-HT）， γ-aminobutyric acid （GABA）， glutamic acid （Glu）， dopamine （DA）， and norepinephrine （NE）] were measured. The protein expression levels of protein kinase B1 （AKT1）， phosphorylated AKT1 （p-AKT1）， epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR）， B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）， sarcoma proto-oncogene，non-receptor tyrosine kinase （SRC）， and heat shock protein 90α family class A member 1 （HSP90AA1） in the zebrafish were also determined. RESULTS A total of 12 active components and 176 intersecting disease targets were identified through network pharmacology analysis. Among these， apigenin， naringenin and others were recognized as core active compounds， while AKT1， EGFR and others served as key targets； EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance signaling pathway was identified as the critical pathway. The sleep improvement rates in zebrafish of LRME low-， medium-， and high-dose groups were 54.60%， 69.03% and 77.97%， 开发。E-mail：hjp_yft@163.com respectively， while the inhibition ratios of locomotor distance were 0.57， 0.83 and 0.95， respectively. Compared with the model group， the number of resting counts， resting time and resting distance were significantly increased/extended in LRME medium- and high-dose groups （P＜0.05）. Neuronal damage in the brain was alleviated. Additionally， the levels of IL-6， IL-1β， TNF-α， MDA， Glu， DA and NE， as well as the protein expression levels of AKT1， p-AKT1， EGFR， SRC and HSP90AA1， were markedly reduced （P＜0.05）， while the levels of IL-10， SOD， GSH-Px， CAT， 5-HT and GABA， as well as Bcl-2 protein expression， were significantly elevated （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS L. ruthenicum Murr. demonstrates sleep-improving effects， and its specific mechanism may be related to the regulation of inflammatory responses， oxidative stress， neurotransmitter balance， and the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance signaling pathway.

ObjectiveHistorically documented Zhejiang Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma（Baizhu） possesses premium characteristics such as phoenix-like head and crane-like neck， pronounced sweetness， and fragrant aroma. However， its current market circulation is low， and the processed products with Zhejiang-style characteristics are at the risk of being lost. This study aims to preserve the ancient Zhejiang-style processing techniques and evaluate them using modern scientific methods. MethodsMultidimensional intelligent sensory evaluation was used to digitally characterize the "quality-structure" of the external appearance of nine-steamed and nine-processed Baizhu medicinal materials（intermediate processed products） and the "odor-taste" of the internal quality of its decoction pieces（slices）， and the appearance parameters were digitally characterized by colorimeter， texture analyzer， electronic nose and electronic tongue， the chemical composition was analyzed via ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS）. Then， cluster analysis on the differences in odor between the medicinal materials（intermediate processed products） and decoction pieces（slices） of nine-steamed and nine-processed Baizhu was conducted， as well as the differences in taste between water-soluble and alcohol-soluble extracts of the decoction pieces（slices）， and the correlation analysis of chroma value-alcohol-soluble extract content-component response value. ResultsThe nine-steamed and nine-processed Baizhu had a dark brown to black epidermis， a brownish-yellow to brownish-gray cross-section， a slightly tough texture， a faint odor， and a slightly sweet， bitter and pungent taste. Texture analyzer measurements revealed minimal adhesion and maximum recovery in the middle section of the characteristic processed Baizhu， consistent with the processing endpoint of thorough steaming and cooking. The head section showed the highest internal hardness， elasticity and chewiness， indicating a denser texture in this area. The electronic nose sensor could clearly distinguish the difference between the medicinal materials and its decoction pieces， with a more significant clustering effect at 60 ℃ for 30 minutes compared to ambient temperature headspace for 2 hours， highlighting the significant impact of the baking degree before slicing on the quality. The electronic tongue taste signal map clearly distinguished the differences between water-soluble and alcohol-soluble extracts of nine-steamed and nine-processed Baizhu decoction pieces， and the addition of auxiliary materials during processing could enhance its alcohol-soluble extract content. A total of 82 chemical components were identified in the characteristic processed Baizhu. After processing， the contents of 58 components increased， while 24 components decreased. Correlation analysis revealed significant negative correlations（P<0.01） between ethanol-soluble extract content and colorimetric values of brightness（L^*）， yellow-bule value（b^*）， and total color difference（E^*_ab）. E^*_ab showed marked negative correlations（P<0.05） with the response values of isochlorogenic acid A and C. ConclusionThis study establishes a modern intelligent sensory evaluation model for multidimensional holographic characterization of nine-steamed and nine-processed Baizhu， clarifying the correlation between increased isochlorogenic acid content and the visual color appearance after different steaming cycles， as well as its intrinsic alcohol-soluble extracts. This provides a reference for quality evaluation and processing standards of the Zhejiang-style characteristic processed products.

Objective:Systematically integrate the real experience and multi-dimensional needs of patients with breast cancer related lymphedema (BCRL) in the process of self-management to provide reference for clinical development of targeted and systematic interventions.Methods:Computer searches were conducted on qualitative studies on the real experiences, psychological feelings, and multidimensional needs of BCRL patients during self-management in databases such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP Database, Wanfang Database, China Biomedical Literature Database, CINAHL, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and PsycINFO. The search period was from database establishment to January 31, 2024. According to the qualitative research quality evaluation criteria of the Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence Based Healthcare Center in Australia, the quality of literature was evaluated, and the results were analyzed and integrated using a pooled integration method.Results:A total of 10 articles were included, and 44 research results were extracted. Similar results were classified into 10 categories and synthesized into 3 integrated results, highlighting the difficulties and challenges encountered; need external multidimensional support and assistance; seeking a new normal and perceiving its benefits.Conclusions:BCRL patients face physical and mental challenges in their lifelong self-management process. Hospitals, society, and related institutions should attach importance to and pay attention to the needs, burdens, and beneficial experiences of patients, provide them with more professional guidance and supervision, and collaborate with families and peers to provide support and encouragement, helping patients reduce negative emotions and strengthen coping abilities, thereby improving overall quality of life.

Objective:To investigate and analyze the predictive value of inhibin A (INHA), galectin-13 (Gal-13), leucine rich alpha-2-glycoprotein 1 (LRG1) in serum for adverse pregnancy outcomes in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) .Methods:From Jan. 2022 to Dec. 2023, 87 GDM pregnant women admitted to Obstetrics Department of Shanxi Children’s Hospital were included as the study group, and were assigned into a good outcome group ( n=54) and an adverse outcome group ( n=33) based on pregnancy outcomes. Meantime, another 87 healthy pregnant women who underwent normal prenatal examinations at our hospital and had no complications were selected as the control group. ELISA method was applied to detect serum levels of INHA, LRG1, and Gal-13. Multiple factor Logistic regression model was constructed to analyze the factors affecting adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM pregnant women. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were applied to evaluate the efficacy of the three methods in predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM pregnant women. Results:Compared with the control group, the levels of INHA and LRG1 in the serum of pregnant women in the study group were obviously higher, and the level of Gal-13 in the serum was obviously lower ( P<0.05). Compared with the good outcome group, the adverse outcome group showed an increase in serum INHA and LRG1 levels and a decrease in serum Gal-13 level ( P<0.05). Elevated levels of serum INHA and LRG1 were risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM pregnant women, while elevated level of serum Gal-13 was a protective factor ( P<0.05). The AUC values for predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM pregnant women based solely on serum INHA, Gal-13, and LRG1 levels were 0.859, 0.850, and 0.841, respectively. The AUC predicted by the combination of the three factors was 0.978, which was better than the individual predictions of serum INHA, Gal-13, and LRG1 ( Zcombination-HA=2.378, Z combination-Gal-13=3.193, Zcombination-LRG1=3.050, P=0.017, 0.001, 0.002) . Conclusions:Serum levels of INHA and LRG1 are elevated in GDM pregnant women, while serum level of Gal-13 is decreased. All three are potential factors that affect the pregnancy outcomes of GDM pregnant women, and the combination of the three shows higher efficacy in predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM pregnant women.

Objective:To explore the potential types of body image disorders in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and to analyze the influencing factors of each category, so as to provide a basis for clinical formulation of targeted intervention programs.Methods:A total of 275 patients with PCOS who visited the outpatient clinic of the Center for Reproductive Medicine of Fenyang Hospital of Shanxi Province from April 2023 to April 2024 were selected by convenience sampling, and the general information questionnaires, Body Image Scale, Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire-3, and Adaptation, Partnership, Growth, Affection and Resolve were used to conduct a cross-sectional survey. The potential profile analysis of body image disorders in PCOS patients was carried out, and the influencing factors of different categories were explored by multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 260 patients with PCOS were surveyed in this study, and 113 patients (43.5%) were aged 25-35 years old. The score of the Body Image Scale for PCOS patients was 11.00 (7.25, 14.00) points, the score of the Sociocultural Attitudes Towards Appearance Questionnaire-3 was (44.80 ± 4.65) points, and the score of Adaptation, Partnership, Growth, Affection and Resolve was (5.80 ± 1.43) points. PCOS patients were divided into three potential categories: low body image impairment group (37.3%, 97/260), intermediate body image level-high cognitive impairment group (38.1%, 99/260), and high body image impairment group (24.6%, 64/260). Body mass index, acne, alopecia, reproductive history, course of disease, whether medical staff have carried out detailed education, social media attention and internalization, and family care were the influencing factors of potential types of body image disorders in PCOS patients ( OR values were 0.339-19.099, all P<0.05). Conclusions:There is obvious group heterogeneity in patients with PCOS body image disorders, and medical staff should formulate targeted interventions according to the characteristics and influencing factors of each category to improve patients′ lifestyle, reduce the level of body image disorders.
