Polygonati Rhizoma demonstrates significant potential for addressing both chronic and hidden hunger. The supply of high-quality seedlings is a primary factor influencing the development of the Polygonati Rhizoma industry. Warm water soaking is often used in agriculture to promote the rapid germination of seeds, while its application and molecular mechanism in Polygonati Rhizoma have not been reported. To rapidly obtain high-quality seedlings, this study treated Polygonatum kingianum var. grandifolium seeds with sand storage at low temperatures, warm water soaking, and cultivation temperature gradients. The results showed that the culture at 25 ℃ or sand storage at 4 ℃ for 2 months rapidly broke the seed dormancy of P. kingianum var. grandifolium, while the culture at 20 ℃ or sand storage at 4 ℃ for 1 month failed to break the seed dormancy. Soaking seeds in 60 ℃ warm water further increased the germination rate, germination potential, and germination index. Specifically, the seeds soaked at 60 ℃ and cultured at 25 ℃ without sand storage treatment(Aa25) achieved a germination rate of 78. 67%±1. 53% on day 42 and 83. 40%±4. 63% on day 77. The seeds pretreated with sand storage at 4 ℃ for 2 months, soaked in 60 ℃ water, and then cultured at 25 ℃ achieved a germination rate comparable to that of Aa25 on day 77. Transcriptomic analysis indicated that warm water soaking might promote germination by triggering reactive oxygen species( ROS), inducing the expression of heat shock factors( HSFs) and heat shock proteins( HSPs), which accelerated DNA replication, transcript maturation, translation, and processing, thereby facilitating the accumulation and turnover of genetic materials. According to the results of indoor controlled experiments and field practices, maintaining a germination and seedling cultivation environment at approximately 25 ℃ was crucial for the one-year seedling cultivation of P. kingianum var. grandifolium.

This study established the HPLC fingerprints and a multi-component content determination method for Bidens pilosa var. radiata and B. pilosa and conducted comprehensive evaluation by integrating fingerprint similarity comparison, cluster analysis(CA), and principal component analysis(PCA), aiming to provide a reference for the establishment of quality standards for Bidentis Herba. HPLC was launched on an Agilent Poroshell 120 EC-C_(18) chromatographic column(4.6 mm×250 mm, 4 μm) by gradient elution with a mobile phase of 0.1% aqueous phosphoric acid-acetonitrile at a flow rate of 0.7 mL·min~(-1), detection wavelength of 270 nm, column temperature of 25 ℃, and an injection volume of 5 μL. The fingerprint similarity of 20 batches of Bidentis Herba ranged from 0.775 to 0.979. A total of 20 common peaks were identified, and seven components were confirmed through comparison with reference substances: neochlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid, isochlorogenic acid A, isochlorogenic acid B, isochlorogenic acid C, rutin, and hyperoside. These seven components exhibited good linearity within the ranges of 3.4-67.4, 33.0-660.3, 26.6-531.2, 3.5-70.5, 6.2-124.9, 2.4-48.3, and 4.6-91.5 μg·mL~(-1), respectively, with correlation coefficients(r) greater than 0.999. The average recovery rates ranged from 96.47% to 104.6%. CA and PCA classified the 20 batches of Bidentis Herba into two categories. PCA yielded two principal components, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 80.557%. The established HPLC fingerprints and multi-component content determination method are simple and accurate, providing a scientific basis for the quality control and quality standard formulation of Bidentis Herba.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of TBL1XR1 mutation on cell biological characteristics of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). METHODS: The TBL1XR1 overexpression vector was constructed and DNA sequencing was performed to determine the mutation status. The effect of TBL1XR1 mutation on apoptosis of DLBCL cell line was detected by flow cytometry and TUNEL fluorescence assay; CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effect of TBL1XR1 mutation on cell proliferation; Transwell assay was used to detect the effect of TBL1XR1 mutation on cell migration and invasion; Western blot was used to detect the effect of TBL1XR1 mutation on the expression level of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) related proteins. RESULTS: The TBL1XR1 overexpression plasmid was successfully constructed. The in vitro experimental results showed that TBL1XR1 mutation had no significant effect on apoptosis of DLBCL cells. Compared with the control group, TBL1XR1 mutation enhanced cell proliferation, migration and invasion of DLBCL cells. TBL1XR1 gene mutation significantly increased the expression of N-cadherin protein, while the expression of E-cadherin protein decreased. CONCLUSION TBL1XR1 mutation plays a role in promoting tumor cell proliferation, migration and invasion in DLBCL. TBL1XR1 could be considered as a potential target for DLBCL therapy in future research.

Obesity, as a chronic recurrent disease, has become a major public health challenge in China. To implement the requirements of the Healthy China Initiative (2019—2030), under domestic guidelines or consensus statements on overweight and obesity, and in alignment with the latest scientific advances globally, the Quality control protocol for adult overweight and obesity screening in health management (examination) institutions (2025 edition) was developed. This protocol was drafted by the Health Management Center of Shanghai Changzheng Hospital and formulated through multiple rounds of deliberation by experts in China’s health examination quality control field. The protocol establishes unified standards for screening facilities, personnel qualifications, and measurement or testing procedures. It defines specific screening items, outlines a standardized screening pathway, and sets requirements for the final medical review, ensuring the scientific validity, effectiveness, and safety of the screening process. The implementation of this protocol will enhance the consistency of weight management practices for adults across health examination institutions and strengthen the quality control of overweight and obesity screening programs.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influencing factors for rebleeding after endoscopic therapy and the effect of the number of sequential treatment sessions on postoperative rebleeding in patients with liver cirrhosis receiving secondary prevention of gastroesophageal varices （GOV）. MethodsA total of 1 717 patients with liver cirrhosis who received secondary prevention of GOV and attended The 960th Hospital of the PLA Joint Logistice Support Force from January 2017 to December 2021 were enrolled， and according to the presence or absence of bleeding after endoscopic therapy， they were divided into non-bleeding group and rebleeding group. The influencing factors for rebleeding were analyzed， as well as the association between the number of endoscopic treatment sessions and rebleeding. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups； the independent-samples t test or the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between the two groups； the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison bertween multiple groups， and the Wilcoxon test was used for further comparison between two groups. The Cox regression model was used to investigate the influencing factors for rebleeding， and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curves， while the Log-rank test was used for comparison between groups. ResultsOf all patients， 286 （16.7%） experienced rebleeding after endoscopic therapy， and 1 431 （83.3%） did not experience bleeding. There were significant differences between the two groups in history of smoking and drinking， etiology of liver cirrhosis， hemoglobin （Hb）， prothrombin time （PT）， prothrombin activity （PTA）， international normalized ratio （INR）， albumin （Alb）， fasting blood glucose， blood urea nitrogen， Child-Pugh class， aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index （APRI） score， albumin-bilirubin （ALBI） score， use of non-selective beta-blocker （NSBB） before surgery， treatment modality， type of varices， and maximal varicose vein diameter （all P<0.05）. The univariate Cox regression analysis showed that in the patients with liver cirrhosis who received secondary prevention of GOV， rebleeding was associated with history of smoking and drinking， etiology of liver cirrhosis， use of NSBB before surgery， treatment modality， maximal varicose vein diameter， Hb， platelet count， PT， PTA， INR， Alb， total bilirubin （TBil）， alkaline phosphatase （ALP）， gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase， blood glucose， Child-Pugh class， and ALBI score （all P<0.05）. The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that Hb （hazard ratio ［HR］=0.989， 95% confidence interval ［CI］： 0.983‍ ‍—‍ ‍0.994， P<0.001）， TBil （HR=1.020， 95%CI： 1.006‍ ‍—‍ ‍1.034， P=0.005）， Alb （HR=0.868， 95%CI： 0.758‍ ‍—‍ ‍0.994， P=0.041）， treatment modality （sclerosing agent： HR=2.158， 95%CI： 1.342‍ ‍—‍ ‍3.470， P=0.002； tissue adhesive： HR=2.709， 95%CI： 1.343‍ ‍—‍ ‍5.462， P=0.005； ligation+sclerosing agent： HR=3.181， 95%CI： 1.522‍ ‍—‍ ‍6.645， P=0.002； sclerosing agent+tissue adhesive： HR=1.851， 95%CI： 1.100‍ ‍—‍ ‍3.113， P=0.020）， ALP （HR=1.003， 95%CI： 1.001‍ ‍—‍ ‍1.004， P=0.002）， and maximal varicose vein diameter （HR=1.346， 95%CI： 1.119‍ ‍—‍ ‍1.618， P=0.002） were independent influencing factors for rebleeding after endoscopic therapy. Comparison of rebleeding rate after different numbers of sequential treatment sessions showed that the patients treated for three sessions had a significantly lower rebleeding rate than those treated for one or two sessions （χ²=8.643 and 5.277， P=0.003 and 0.022）. The survival analysis showed that with the increase in the number of treatment sessions， there was a significantly longer interval between rebleeding （P=0.006） and a significantly lower mortality rate （P<0.001）. ConclusionThe levels of TBil， ALP， Hb， and Alb on admission， endoscopic treatment modality， and maximal varicose vein diameter were the main predictive factors for rebleeding after endoscopic therapy for GOV in liver cirrhosis， and such predictive factors should be closely monitored in clinical practice. Regular endoscopic therapy can reduce the rebleeding and mortality rates of patients with liver cirrhosis and GOV and prolonmg the interval between rebleeding.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

AIM To explore the clinical effects of comprehensive treatment regimen of traditional Chinese medicine on patients with refractory rhinosinusitis.METHODS One hundred and sixty-four patients were randomly assigned into control group(82 cases)for 3-month intervention of comprehensive treatment regimen of western medicine(Physiological Seawater Nasal Spray,Budesonide Nasal Spray,Clarithromycin Tablets),and observation group(82 cases)for 3-month intervention of comprehensive treatment regimen of traditional Chinese medicine(Xinzhi Tongqiao Granules,Xinbai Nasal Fumigation Powder,acupuncture of sphenopalatine ganglion).The changes in clinical effects,subjective disease indices(clinical symptom scores,SNOT-20 score,Lung Meridian Heat Accumulation Syndrome score),objective disease indices(Lund-Kennedy score,T&T olfactory score,MTT,MTR),inflammatory indices(LTC4,IL-17a,IL-33,ECP),immune indices(CD4+,CD8+,Treg,Th17,CD4+/CD8+,Th17/Treg)and safety indices were detected.RESULTS The observation group demonstrated higher total control rate than the control group(P＜0.05).After the treatment and at 3-month follow-up,the two groups displayed decreased clinical symptom scores,inflammatory indices,CD8+,Th17,Th17/Treg,SNOT-20 score,Lung Meridian Heat Accumulation Syndrome score,Lund-Kennedy score,T&T olfactory score(P＜0.05),increased CD4+,Treg,CD4+/CD8+,MTR(P＜0.05),and shortened MTT(P＜0.05),especially for the observation group(P＜0.05).No obvious adverse reactions were observable in the two groups.CONCLUSION For the patients with refractory rhinosinusitis,the comprehensive treatment regimen of traditional Chinese medicine can safely and effectively improve inflammatory responses,immune functions and mucociliary motor functions,repair the status and functions of nasal mucosa,alleviate subjective and objective symptoms,and enhance life quality.

Circular RNA(circRNA)represents a unique class of closed-loop structured non-coding RNAs involved in various biological processes such as cell proliferation,differentiation,and apopto-sis.They play a significant role in the development of numerous diseases,and also serve as poten-tial biomarkers and therapeutic targets.To explore the impact of circRNA on viral replication,this study performed an omics measurement and analysis of circRNA differential expression in MC38 cells infected with HY12 enterovirus.It was found that,following HY12 virus infection,the ex-pressionlevels of 570 circRNAs were upregulated,while 381 circRNAs were downregulated.A-mong the upregulated circRNAs,the significantly upregulated circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 was selected for further investigation into its association with HY12 infection and its impact on viral replication.The results indicated that after HY12 virus infection,the expression of host circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 significantly increased,and its expression level was dependent on the virus dos-age and time.Compared to normal MC38 cells infected with the HY12 virus,cells with knocked down expression of circRNA mmu_circ_0001083 showed reduced expression of the 2C protein and significantly lower viral titers.Conversely,after HY12 virus infection in MC38 cells with overexpressed circRNA mmu_circ_0001083,there was an increase in the expression of the 2C pro-tein and a significant rise in viral titers.These results suggest that the upregulation of host cir-cRNA mmu_circ_0001083 is significantly positively correlated with the replication of HY12 virus,meaning mmu_circ_0001083 plays a positive regulatory role in the replication of HY12.This find-ing lays a foundation for future in-depth studies on the regulatory mechanisms of circRNA on viral replication.

A recombinant enzyme-mediated nucleic acid amplification(RAA)technology combined with colloidal gold test strips was developed for the rapid detection of bovine enterovirus(BEV).Using the highly conserved BEV 5'UTR as the target sequence,the primers were designed and screened.Downstream primer labeled with biotin at the 5'end and the probe labeled with 6-FAM at the 5'end were used to establish the RT-RAA method.The test strips were assembled by using mouse-derived anti-6-FAM monoclonal antibody as the gold standard antibody,with a streptavidin encapsulated in the detection line and sheep anti-mouse IgG encapsulated in the quality control line.A RT-RAA-LFD method was established by combing RAA technique with the prepared later-al flow device test strips for the detection of bovine enterovirus nucleic acids.The specificity,sensi-tivity,repeatability,and clinical application of the method are also evaluated.The results showed that the optimal primer concentration of this method was 5 μmol/L,and the amplification of BEV nucleic acids was accomplished by reacting at 35 ℃ for 8 min with the lowest detection limit of 101 copies/μL.No cross-reactivity with bovine viral diarrhea virus,bovine parvovirus,and foot-and-mouth disease virus was observed.The efficacy for the prepared test strips was at least for 90 d kept at 4 ℃.Detection of 74 clinical samples yielded a similar result compared with RT-PCR method.The above results demonstrated that the BEV RT-RAA-LFD method established in this study has high sensitivity,specificity,and more convenient to use,which is suitable for clinical de-tection on-site and provides a new technical tool for the diagnosis and epidemiological investigation of BEV infection.
