ObjectiveTo explore quality difference factors of Perillae Caulis based on the contents of multiple chemical components and comprehensively evaluate the quality. MethodsA total of 32 batches of Perillae Caulis samples were collected from 12 producing areas such as Hebei， Anhui and Guangdong， and their diameter range， epidermis color and producing areas were recorded. Total flavonoids， total phenols， volatile oils， 5 active components and 84 volatile components in 32 batches of samples were quantitatively or semi-quantitatively determined by colorimetry， ultra performance liquid chromatography-photodiode array detector（UPLC-PDA） and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（GC-MS）. Then the differences between the contents of these components were analyzed by principal component analysis（PCA） and non-parametric test. According to the weights of the index components determined by PCA model， entropy weight-technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution（TOPSIS） model was constructed to evaluate the quality of Perillae Caulis with different characters and origins. ResultsThere were significant differences in the composition of Perillae Caulis with different diameters， epidermis colors and producing areas， and 9 differential components were screened out， including 6 index constituents（total flavonoids， total phenols， caffeic acid， scutellarin， rosmarinic acid and luteolin） and 3 volatile components（caryophyllene oxide， （-）-humulene epoxide Ⅱ， 14-hydroxycaryophyllene）， of which 6 index constituents were higher in samples with small diameter， purple-brown epidermis and southern origin， while the contents of 3 volatile components were higher in samples with large diameter， dark-brown epidermis and northern origin. A significant difference was shown in the model scores of different diameters， epidermis colors and origins（P<0.05）， and the scores of Perillae Caulis with small diameter and purple-brown epidermis from southern area， especially Guangdong， had a high score. ConclusionThere are significant differences in the composition and content of chemical constituents between different diameters， epidermal colors and production areas of Perillae Caulis， samples showing small diameter， owing purple-brown epidermis， and originating from Guangdong were of higher-quality due to their higher content of 8 key indices.

AIM: To compare and analyze the efficacy of femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis(FS-LASIK)with small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE)in the treatment of moderate myopia.METHODS:Retrospective study. A total of 100 patients(100 eyes)with moderate myopia admitted to our hospital from August 2022 to October 2024 were selected(all the data of the right eye were taken for study). The 52 cases in FS-LASIK group received FS-LASIK, while the 48 cases in SMILE group received SMILE. The patients were followed up for 6 mo, the visual recovery, spherical equivalent, corneal curvature, corneal Q value, central corneal thickness, corneal volume, high-order aberrations, corneal biomechanical parameters and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.RESULTS: At 3 and 6 mo after surgery, the uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA)and spherical equivalent of both groups increased compared to before surgery(all P<0.05). At 6 mo after surgery, both groups showed a decrease in corneal curvature, central corneal thickness, and corneal volume, with the FS-LASIK group having a lower corneal volume; both groups showed a great increase in Q values, with the FS-LASIK group having a higher Q value(all P<0.001); the total high-order aberration, spherical aberration, and trefoil aberration all increased in both groups, with higher values observed in the FS-LASIK group(all P<0.001); the integrated radius(IR), inverse concave radius(ICR)and deformation amplitude ratio 2(DAR2)were all increased, while the stiffness parameter at first applanation(SP-A1), the highest concavity radius(HC-Radius)and the ambrosio's relational thickness to the horizontal profile(ARTh)were all decreased in both groups(all P<0.001). There was no statistical difference in the incidence of complications between two groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Both FS-LASIK and SMILE can help improve the visual quality of patients with moderate myopia, and their early postoperative corneal morphological changes have their own characteristics. In addition, patients who receive FS-LASIK have larger corneal Q value and high-order aberrations after surgery.

Objective To analyze the prognosis of elderly patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) and its correlation with serum angiopoietin 2 (Ang-2), activated protein C (APC) and pentraxin 3 (PTX3) levels. Methods A total of 508 elderly patients with CAP in the hospital from March 2021 to March 2024 were divided into death group (n=104) and survival group (n=404) according to the survival status at 28 days after admission. Another 110 healthy subjects with physical examination were included in the control group. The levels of serum Ang-2, APC and PTX3 were compared, and their correlation with prognosis was explored by Pearson correlation analysis. Results In this study, 404 cases survived after 28 days and 104 cases died. The levels of C-reactive protein, procalcitonin and interleukin-8 and the proportion of severe condition in the survival group were lower than those in the death group (P<0.05). The level of serum APC in the case group and the death group was lower than that in the control group and the survival group (P<0.05), while the levels of Ang-2 and PTX3 were higher than those in the control group and the survival group (P<0.05), respectively. Serum APC level was negatively correlated with community-acquired pneumonia in the elderly CAP (r=-0.476, P<0.05), while Ang-2 and PTX3 were positively correlated with prognosis (r=0.489, 0.502, P<0.05). Conclusion Serum levels of Ang-2 and APC in elderly patients with CAP are decreased and the level of PTX3 is increased. Serum Ang-2 and APC levels are negatively correlated with elderly CAP, and PTX3 is positively correlated with prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological features, gene mutations, and distribution of bronchial adenoma (BA).Methods:Eighty-eight cases of BA diagnosed via routine section diagnosis between May 2015 and February 2024 were collected at the Pathology Departments of Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University (71 cases), Shanghai, China and Jining No.1 People′s Hospital (17 cases), Jining, China. Clinical data, image features, histopathological sections, immunohistochemical stains, and genetic testing results were reviewed.Results:Among the 88 patients with BA, there were 36 males and 52 females. The incidence of proximal-type BA was the same in both genders (50%, 28/56), while distal-type BA was more commonly found in females (75%, 24/32, P=0.022). BA predominantly affected middle-aged and elderly adults, with an age range of 30-78 years (median, 61 years). Clinically, BA generally presented without obvious symptoms. Radiologically it mainly manifested as peripheral lung ground-glass nodules, mixed ground-glass nodules, or solid nodules, primarily located in the lower lobes of the lungs (72.7%, 64/88). Proximal-type BA was characterized by solid nodules (53.6%, 30/56), while distal-type BA by ground-glass nodules (56.3%, 18/32), with a statistically significant difference between the two types ( P<0.01). The tumor was non-encapsulated, with a gray-white cut surface, and some areas were gray-brown. In 18.2% (16/88) of cases, the cut surface was slippery, with soft to medium-firm consistency and poorly defined margins. The smooth texture was predominantly found in proximal-type BA (14/16), whose tumor diameters ranged from 0.2 to 4.6 cm. Microscopically, the lesions exhibited glandular, papillary, or relatively flat patterns, with the main cellular components consisting of basal cells, ciliated columnar cells, mucinous cells, and alveolar epithelial cells in various proportions. Proximal-type BA resembled the morphology of proximal bronchioles and commonly contained mucinous and ciliated cells, while distal-type BA typically lacked mucinous and ciliated cells. The frequency of ciliated cell micropapillae in proximal-type BA (64.3%, 36/56) was significantly higher than that in distal-type BA (31.3%, 10/32, P=0.003). The morphological manifestation of glandular duct dilation was more commonly noted in proximal-type BA (98.2%, 55/56) than that in distal-type BA (81.25%, 26/32, P=0.009). Overall, the disagreement rate between frozen-section and routine diagnoses was 19.5% (17/87). Immunohistochemistry for cytokeratin 5/6 (CK5/6) and p40 showed that basal cell continuity in proximal-type BA (82.1%, 46/56) was significantly higher than that in distal-type BA (56.2%, 18/32, P=0.009). Molecular testing showed an accumulative gene mutation rate of 60.5% (23/38) in BA, including mutations in BRAF V600E (34.2%, 13/38), KRAS (18.4%, 7/38), ALK (5.3%, 2/38), and EGFR (2.6%, 1/38). Proximal-type BA was associated with BRAF V600E mutations, while distal-type BA with KRAS mutations ( P=0.025). Conclusions:BA is a rare benign bronchial tumor and has a high diagnostic error-rate on intraoperative frozen section. Proximal-type BA often presents with ciliated cell micropapillae, which supports the diagnosis, while distal-type BA frequently shows a partial reduction or absence of basal cells, increasing the diagnostic difficulty. The different subtypes of BA exhibit distinct genetic (mutation) profiles that may assist in its diagnosis and histological classification

Objective:To examine the relationships between perceived organizational support in job resources, self-efficacy in personal resources, and teaching commitment based on the job requirement-resource model, and to explore the path of influencing clinical teachers' teaching commitment.Methods:Using the convenience sampling method, 463 clinical teachers from 16 university-affilicated hospitals in Shandong Province, China were selected as the study subjects. Surveys were conducted using the Perceived Organizational Support Scale, Self-efficacy Scale, and Teaching Commitment Scale. A statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0. A structural equation model was constructed using AMOS 26.0 to test the mediation effect.Results:①The level of teaching commitment of clinical teachers was relatively high, with a total score of (45.25±9.21) points. The total score of perceived organizational support was (38.22±9.75) points, and the total score of self-efficacy was (112.27±17.30) points. ②Perceived organizational support and self-efficacy were positively correlated with teaching commitment ( r=0.59, r=0.65, both P<0.01). ③ Perceived organizational support had significant and direct positive effects on teaching commitment and self-efficacy ( β=0.36, β=0.51, both P<0.01). Self-efficacy significantly and positively affected teaching commitment ( β=0.47, P<0.01). Self-efficacy played a significant and partial mediating role in the effect of perceived organizational support on teaching commitment (standardized mediating effect value of 0.239, P<0.01), and the mediating effect percentage was 39.83%. Conclusions:Perceived organizational support not only directly predicts clinical teachers' teaching commitment, but also indirectly affects teaching commitment through self-efficacy. University-affiliated hospital administrators should pay attention to clinical teachers' perceived organizational support to improve their self-efficacy and teaching commitment, thereby ensuring teaching quality.

ObjectiveTo establish the fingerprints of 15 batches of Hengzhi Kechuan capsules， to quantitatively analyze 10 index components， and to evaluate the quality uniformity of samples from different batches. MethodsThe fingerprints and quantitative analysis of Hengzhi Kechuan capsules were established by a combination method of high performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detector and charged aerosol detector（HPLC-DAD-CAD）， adenosine， guanosine， vanillic acid， safflomin A， agarotetrol， naringin， hesperidin， militarine， ginsenoside Rb₁， and glycyrrhizic acid were selected as quality attribute indexes. A total of 15 batches of Hengzhi Kechuan capsules from 2022 to 2024（3 boxes per batch） were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed， and the quality uniformity level of the manufacturers was characterized by parameters of intra-batch consistency（P_A） and inter-batch consistency（P_B）. The homogeneity and difference of quality attribute indexes of samples from different years were analyzed by heatmap clustering analysis. ResultsHPLC fingerprints and quantitative method of Hengzhi Kechuan capsules were established， and the methods could be used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of this preparation， which was found to be stable and reliable by method validation. The similarity of fingerprints of 15 batches of samples was 0.887-0.975， a total of 13 common peaks were calibrated， and 10 common peaks were designated， all of which were quality attribute index components. The results of quantitative analysis showed that the contents of the above 10 ingredients in the samples were 0.038-0.078， 0.115-0.251， 0.007-0.018， 0.291-0.673， 0.122-0.257， 0.887-1.905， 1.841-3.364， 1.412-2.450， 2.207-3.112， 0.650-1.161， respectively. And the contents of ginsenoside Rb₁ and glycyrrhizic acid met the limit requirements in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. For the samples from 15 batches， the P_A values of the 10 index components were all <10%， indicating good intra-batch homogeneity， and the P_B values ranged from 33.86% to 92.97%， suggesting that the inter-batch homogeneity was poor. Heatmap clustering analysis showed that the samples from different years were clustered into separate categories， and adenosine， guanosine， safflomin A， naringin， hesperidin and agarotetrol were the main differential components. ConclusionThe intra-annual quality uniformity of Hengzhi Kechuan capsules is good and the inter-annual quality uniformity is insufficient， which may be related to the quality difference of Pinellinae Rhizoma Praeparatum， Carthami Flos， Citri Sarcodactylis Fructus， Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium， Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum， Citri Fructus， etc. In this study， the fingerprint and multi-indicator determination method of Hengzhi Kechuan capsules was established， which can be used for more accurate and efficient quality control and standardization enhancement.

ObjectiveTo compare the differences in color， odor， coumarin content and microbial community composition of Angelicae Dahuricae Radix（ADR） during different drying processes， and to explore the correlation between changes in microbial community composition and changes in quality indexes of ADR. MethodsThe fresh ADR was processed at three drying temperatures（50， 70， 100 ℃） by drying and steaming cutting， semi-fresh cutting and drying， fresh cutting and drying， and sulfur fumigation methods. The color values of samples were extracted by Adobe Photoshop 2022 software and subjected to principal component analysis（PCA）， electronic nose was used to identify the odor information of medicinal powders and subjected to loadings analysis， PCA， and linear discriminant analysis（LDA）， and high performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） was used to determine the contents of five coumarins（bergapten， oxypeucedanin， imperatorin， phellopterin， isoimperatorin）. The samples for microbial detection were taken from fresh dried samples， 50 ℃（dried and steamed cut， sulfur fumigated） samples， and 100 ℃（dried and steamed cut） samples when the water content was 50% and 14%， respectively. And the changes of microbial community composition during processing were determined by high-throughput sequencing method. The relationship between the changes of microbial community composition and the changes of odor， color and active component content of ADR during drying process was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. ResultsThe color quantification results showed that an increase in drying temperature led to the decrease of brightness value（L）， and the increases of red-green value（a） and yellow-blue value（b）， and the change of processing method had no obvious effect on the color of medicinal materials. The results of odor quantification showed that W1S， W2S， W5S， W2W and W1W sensor were sensitive to the odor changes of ADR and could be used to distinguish ADR decoction pieces from different processing methods. The results of HPLC showed that the coumarin content of ADR decreased with the increase of drying temperature and the delay of processing time， the optimal processing method was drying and steaming cutting method， and the optimal temperature was 50 ℃. High-throughput sequencing results showed that the dominant bacteria in ADR during processing were Achromobacter， Agrobacterium， Nocardioides， Mycobacterium and Enterobacter， the dominant fungi were Coprinopsis， Meyerozyma and Apiotrichum. The results of correlation analysis showed that the quality indexes of ADR were positively correlated with Agrobacterium， Mycobacterium in bacteria， Candida in fungi， and negatively correlated with Bacillus in bacteria. ConclusionThere are significant differences in the color， odor， coumarin content and microbial community composition of ADR in different drying processes， and the best drying method is drying and steaming cutting at 50 ℃. The relative abundance changes of 9 bacterial genera and 4 fungal genera are closely related to the quality formation of ADR during the drying process.
