ObjectiveThe development trend and knowledge structure of the research on human use experience （HUE） of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） were systematically reviewed， and the core challenges and future directions were identified. This study aims to provide reference for the construction of a scientific and feasible research and development framework and evidence transformation system. MethodsLiterature related to "human use experience" published from January 1， 2019 to July 31， 2025 was retrieved from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， Wanfang， China Science and Technology Journal Database （VIP）， and PubMed databases. Bibliometric visualization was conducted using Excel， VOSviewer， and CiteSpace， followed by in-depth reading and thematic summarization of core literature. ResultsA total of 181 papers were included for bibliometric analysis， with 45 articles used for in-depth thematic mining. The analysis showed that the number of publications on HUE research has increased in a stepwise manner over the past five years. Yang Zhongqi （24 times） was the core of the author network， the journal with the highest number of publications was China Journal of Chinese Materia Medica， the institutions publishing the most articles were mainly research institutions， regulatory agencies， hospitals， and universities， high-frequency keywords included "new TCM drugs"， "real-world studies"， and "clinical comprehensive evaluation"， keyword clustering analysis formed three major clusters： Policy orientation， application fields， and methodological approaches. Thematic analysis reveals that HUE-based evaluation should be integrated throughout the research and development process， encompassing three dimensions： TCM theory， clinical value， and pharmaceutical fundamentals， with toxic herbs and compatibility contraindications being key foci. Data collection primarily relies on empirical data， while real-world data constitute the primary source for clinical research， with efficacy and safety as the shared core. Data management emphasizes quality control and statistical analysis； however， the management of bias and confounding remains a critical bottleneck in evidence transformation. In practice， HUE-based approaches have successfully supported the registration and evaluation of multiple categories of new TCM drugs. ConclusionThe research on HUE of TCM has formed a policy-driven pattern characterized by， rapid development and close link with regulatory practice. A technical framework covering the whole chain of research and development has been constructed with clinical value as the core， which provides methodological basis and strategy reference for the scientific transformation of HUE of TCM from "experience" to "evidence".

Although global brain science research has progressed rapidly in recent decades, several fundamental questions in neuroscience remain unresolved. In particular, the physical mechanism underlying neural signal transmission remains controversial, and the carriers responsible for neural information storage and retrieval have not yet been fully clarified. These unresolved issues motivate us to re-examine the processes of neural information generation, transmission, integration, storage, and retrieval from multiple perspectives. A key observation is that neural electromagnetic activities are closely associated with time. Their duration, temporal structure, and dynamic evolution play crucial roles in neural information processing. In this work, we analyze neural electromagnetic activities from the perspective of temporal scales (referred to here as the “time course”). By reviewing and integrating findings from previous studies, we examine the characteristic time requirements and dynamic features of neural processes occurring at different stages of information processing. These stages include neural signal generation, signal transmission along axons, synaptic integration, synaptic plasticity, and memory formation and retrieval. Based on this temporal analysis, we outline a framework describing neural electromagnetic activities across a wide range of time scales, spanning from microseconds to minutes, hours, or even longer periods associated with long-term memory, which suggests that neural information processing involves multiple physical processes operating at different time levels. Rapid electromagnetic events may occur on microsecond scales, whereas electrophysiological phenomena such as action potentials typically last on the order of milliseconds. Longer time scales are associated with synaptic plasticity and memory-related processes. From this perspective, we propose that the physical carrier of neural information may be transient electromagnetic pulses with durations on the microsecond scale. In this framework, action potentials can be interpreted as the macroscopic electrophysiological manifestation of underlying electromagnetic processes triggered by ionic currents across neuronal membranes. Rather than being the fundamental neural signal itself, the action potential may represent a measurable membrane-level response associated with the successful activation of these electromagnetic events. Moreover, we discuss a possible mechanism for long-term memory storage. Considering the apparent temporal contradiction between the millisecond-scale excitation of neurons and the long-term persistence of memories, we believe that long-term memory information may be stored within neural network topologies formed by electrical synapse coupling. Such structures, referred to as electrically coupled memory networks (ECMNs), may enable neurons within the same network to respond rapidly and synchronously to stimuli, thereby facilitating efficient memory retrieval. Overall, this study emphasizes the importance of considering the temporal organization of neural electromagnetic activities when interpreting neural signaling mechanisms. It may provide new insights into the physical nature of neural information carriers and the mechanisms of memory storage and retrieval. Furthermore, highlighting the potential role of electromagnetic interactions in neural activity may contribute to the development of new theoretical frameworks and experimental approaches in neuroscience. Such perspectives may also offer valuable references for future research on neural coding, brain function mechanisms, and neuromodulation technologies.

Objective To explore the relationship between ambulatory blood pressure changes and health-related behaviors as well as sleep quality in hypertensive patients. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 684 patients who underwent 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring at Chengdu Fifth People's Hospital between January 2023 and April 2025. The cohort included 502 hypertensive patients and 182 non-hypertensive patients. Clinical data from both groups of patients were collected. Their health-related behaviors and sleep quality were investigated. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between ambulatory blood pressure changes and health-related behaviors as well as sleep quality in hypertensive patients. Results The differences in dSBP, dDBP, nSBP, nDBP, 24-hour SBP, 24-hour DBP, 24-hour SBP CV, and 24-hour DBP CV levels between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). The scores of the Active Health Behavior Scale (AHBS) in the hypertension group were lower than those in the non-hypertension group, while the scores of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) in the hypertension group were higher than those in the non-hypertension group (P<0.05). AHBS showed a negative correlation with dSBP, dDBP, nSBP, nDBP, 24 h SBP, 24 h DBP, 24 h SBP CV, and 24 h DBP CV (P<0.05), while PSQI showed a positive correlation with dSBP, dDBP, nSBP, nDBP, 24 h SBP, 24 h DBP, 24 h SBP CV, and 24 h DBP CV (P<0.05). Conclusion Health-related behaviors and sleep quality can influence ambulatory blood pressure through various mechanisms, including neural, endocrine, and vascular functions.

Messeae in the most high-latitude region globally.

A combination of the "disease-syndrome-symptom" approach was used to study the syndrome characterization and features of dampness-heat obstruction syndrome in papain-induced knee osteoarthritis(KOA) model rats during the disease process. Forty-eight male SD rats were randomly divided into sham and model groups. The KOA model was established by injecting a mixture of papain and L-cysteine into the joint cavity on days 1, 3, and 5. During the 8 weeks following model establishment, the rats were assessed weekly for the plantar mechanical pain threshold, knee joint diameter, local skin temperature of the knee joint, weight-bearing difference between the two hind feet, and the modified Lequesne MG score of the knee joint. Samples were collected at 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks after model establishment to observe the gross lesions in cartilage and synovium. Histopathological changes in joint tissues were examined using hematoxylin-eosin, Masson's trichrome, and Senna red O-solid green staining. ELISA and immunohistochemical analysis were performed to detect the levels of interleukin(IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α, prostaglandin E2(PGE2), and the expression of aquaporins(AQP) 1 and 3 in serum and synovium. The results showed that the ink score of articular cartilage in the model group significantly increased from 4 to 8 weeks, the cartilage Mankin's score and the percentage of Masson-positive area in cartilage increased significantly from 1 to 8 weeks. The percentage of red-stained area for cartilage proteoglycans decreased significantly from 1 to 8 weeks. The synovitis score from 1 to 6 weeks and the percentage of blue-stained collagen fibers in the synovium from 1 to 8 weeks increased significantly, with statistically significant differences compared to the sham group. The mechanical pain threshold in the model group significantly decreased from 1 to 8 weeks, the knee joint diameter significantly increased from 1 to 6 weeks, and the local skin temperature of the knee joint, the weight-bearing difference between the two hind feet, and the modified Lequesne MG score from 1 to 5 weeks significantly increased, all with statistically significant differences compared to the sham group. The levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and PGE2 in serum and synovium of the model group significantly increased from 1 to 6 weeks. Serum TNF-α and PGE2, and synovial IL-1β, also significantly increased at 8 weeks. The levels of cartilage AQP1 and AQP3 significantly increased from 1 to 4 weeks, while synovial AQP1 and AQP3 increased significantly from 1 to 6 weeks, with all differences statistically significant compared to the sham group. In conclusion, papain-induced KOA rats exhibited pathological changes, including articular cartilage degeneration and synovial inflammation, within 1 week of induction. The KOA rats showed characteristics of dampness-heat obstruction syndrome, such as joint pain, swelling, elevated skin temperature, and decreased function, as well as increased inflammatory factors and AQP1、AQP3 in serum and joint tissues within 5 to 6 weeks of disease onset. These results provide an experimental model for studying the syndromes of KOA with dampness-heat obstruction syndrome.

This paper aims to evaluate the pharmacodynamic effect and mechanism of Zhifuxin in the prevention and treatment of vascular dementia(VD), providing a theoretical basis for later development. Bilateral common carotid artery ligation in male Wistar rats was conducted to replicate the long-term hypoperfused VD model, and the drug was given to groups after one month. The rats were fed daily with nimodipine of 20 mg·kg~(-1), Zhifuxin of 50, 100, and 200 mg·kg~(-1), or the same volume of solvent for four weeks. 24 hours after the last dose, Morris water maze experiments were performed to detect the learning and memory abilities of rats. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes in the brain tissue of rats; the immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors M1 and M4 in rats and determine the content of acetyl choline(Ach), acetylcholin esterase(AchE), malondialdehyde(MDA), choline acetyl transferase(ChAT), and dimethyl arginine hydrolase 1(DDAH1) in the cerebral cortex of rats. Western blot was employed to detect protein expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS), caveolin-1, monoamine oxidase A(MAO-A), and monoamine oxidase B(MAO-B). RT-qPCR was utilized to detect mRNA expression of eNOS, caveolin-1, MAO-A, and MAO-B. The results showed that compared with the model group, the different doses of Zhifuxin were able to shorten the latency of VD rats in the water maze positioning navigation test, increase the number of crossing platforms in the space exploration test, and alleviate cone cell contracture in the hippocampus of VD rats. The expression of biochemical indicators related to the cholinergic system in the cerebral cortex: M1 and M4 receptors increased, as well as ChAT activity, and AchE activity significantly decreased. The protein and mRNA expression of indicators related to the eNOS/NO pathway: DDAH1 content, eNOS, and caveolin-1 increased, and that of indicators related to monoamine oxidase(MAO): MAO-A and MAO-B significantly decreased. The results show that Zhifuxin can improve cognition ability in long-term hypoperfused VD rats, and its mechanism of action may be related to its ability to modulate the cholinergic system and the eNOS/NO pathway and inhibit MAO expression.

This study explores the effect of total secondary ginsenosides(TSG) on apoptosis and energy metabolism in H9c2 cells under hypoxia and its potential mechanisms. H9c2 cell viability was observed and the apoptosis rate was calculated to determine suitable intervention concentrations of TSG, antimycin A complex(AMA), and coenzyme Q10(CoQ10), along with the duration of hypoxia. H9c2 cells at the logarithmic phase were divided into a normal group, a model group, a TSG group, an AMA group, a TSG+AMA group, and a CoQ10 group. All groups, except the normal group, were treated with their respective intervention drugs and cultured under hypoxic conditions. Adenosine triphosphate(ATP) content and creatine kinase(CK) activity were measured using an ATP chemiluminescence assay kit and a CK colorimetric assay kit. Flow cytometry was used to assess apoptosis rates, and Western blot evaluated the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins, including B-cell lymphoma 2(Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax), cysteinyl aspartate-specific protease(caspase)-3, caspase-8, and caspase-9, as well as mitochondrial biogenesis-related proteins peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator 1α(PGC-1α), estrogen-related receptor-α(ERRα), nuclear respiratory factor(NRF)-1, NRF-2, peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-α(PPARα), and Na~+-K~+-ATPase. RT-PCR was employed to analyze the mRNA expression of mitochondrial biogenesis factors, including PGC-1α, ERRα, NRF-1, NRF-2, PPARα, mitochondrial transcription factor A(TFAM), mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase 1(COX1), and mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1(ND1), ND2. The selected intervention concentrations were 7.5 μg·mL~(-1) for TSG, 10 μmol·L~(-1) for AMA, and 1×10~(-4) mol·L~(-1) for CoQ10, with a hypoxia duration of 6 h. Compared with the normal group, the model group showed decreased ATP content and CK activity, increased apoptosis rates, decreased Bcl-2 expression, and increased Bax, caspase-3, caspase-8, and caspase-9 expression in H9c2 cells. Additionally, the protein and mRNA expression levels of mitochondrial biogenesis-related factors(PGC-1α, ERRα, NRF-1, NRF-2, PPARα), mRNA expression of TFAM, COX1, and ND1, ND2, and protein expression of Na~+-K~+-ATPase in mitochondrial DNA, were also reduced. In the TSG and CoQ10 groups, ATP content and CK activity increased, and apoptosis rates decreased compared with those in the model group. The TSG group showed decreased protein expression of apoptosis-related proteins Bax, caspase-3, caspase-8, and caspase-9, increased protein and mRNA expression of mitochondrial biogenesis factors PGC-1α, ERRα, NRF-1, and PPARα, and increased NRF-2 protein expression and TFAM mRNA expression in mitochondrial DNA. Conversely, in the AMA group, ATP content and CK activity decreased, the apoptosis rate increased, Bcl-2 expression decreased, and Bax, caspase-3, caspase-8, and caspase-9 expression increased, alongside reductions in PGC-1α, ERRα, NRF-1, NRF-2, PPARα protein and mRNA expression, as well as TFAM, COX1, ND1, ND2 mRNA expression and Na~+-K~+-ATPase protein expression. Compared with the TSG group, the TSG+AMA group exhibited decreased ATP content and CK activity, increased apoptosis rates, decreased Bcl-2 expression, and increased Bax, caspase-3, caspase-8, and caspase-9 expression, along with decreased PGC-1α, ERRα, NRF-1, NRF-2, and PPARα protein and mRNA expression and TFAM, COX1, and ND1, ND2 mRNA expression. Compared with the AMA group, the TSG+AMA group showed increased CK activity, decreased apoptosis rate, increased Bcl-2 expression, and decreased Bax, caspase-8, and caspase-9 expression. Additionally, the protein and mRNA expression of PGC-1α, ERRα, NRF-1, PPARα, mRNA expression of TFAM, COX1, ND1, ND2, and Na~+-K~+-ATPase protein expression increased. In conclusion, TSG enhance ATP content and CK activity and inhibit apoptosis in H9c2 cells under hypoxia, and the mechanisms may be related to the regulation of PGC-1α, ERRα, NRF-1, NRF-2, PPARα, and TFAM expression, thus promoting mitochondrial biogenesis.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the mediating role of sleep duration in the relationship between depression symptoms and myopia among middle school students. METHODS: This study was a cross-sectional research conducted using a stratified cluster random sampling method. A total of 1 728 middle school students were selected from two junior high schools and two senior high schools in certain urban areas and farms of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. Questionnaire surveys and vision tests were conducted among the students. Spearman analysis was used to analyze the correlation between depression symptoms, sleep duration, and myopia. The Bootstrap method was employed to investigate the mediating effect of sleep duration between depression symptoms and myopia. RESULTS: The prevalence of myopia in the overall population was 74.02% (1 279/1 728), with an average sleep duration of (7.6±1.0) hours. The rate of insufficient sleep was 83.62% (1 445/1 728), and the proportion of students exhibiting depression symptoms was 25.29% (437/1 728). Correlation analysis showed significant negative correlations between visual acuity in both eyes and sleep duration with depressive emotions as measured by the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (with correlation coefficients of -0.064, -0.084, and -0.199 respectively; P<0.01), as well as with somatic symptoms and activities (with correlation coefficients of -0.104, -0.124, and -0.233 respectively; P<0.01) and interpersonal relationships (with correlation coefficients of -0.052, -0.059, and -0.071 respectively; P<0.05). The correlation coefficients for left and right eye visual acuity and sleep duration were 0.206 and 0.211 respectively (P<0.001). Sleep duration exhibited a mediating effect between depression symptoms and myopia (indirect effect=0.056, 95%CI: 0.029-0.088), with the mediating effect value for females (indirect effect=0.066, 95%CI: 0.024-0.119) being higher than that for males (indirect effect=0.042, 95%CI: 0.011-0.081). CONCLUSIONS Sleep duration serves as a partial mediator between depression symptoms and myopia in middle school students.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical characteristics, therapeutic responses and prognostic features of E2A-PBX1 fusion gene for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). METHODS: A total of 837 pediatric patients with ALL who were initially diagnosed in our hospital from July 2010 to November 2017 were retrospectively analyzed, 48 children with positive E2A-PBX1 fusion gene were detected by the real-time quantitative PCR techniques and their data were retrospectively collected for analysis. RESULTS: Among 48 cases with positive E2A-PBX1 fusion gene, there were 26 males and 22 females, with onset ages ranging from 9 months to 13 years old. There were 2 cases (4.2%) in the low-risk group, 32 cases (66.7%) in the intermediate-risk group, and 14 cases (29.1%) in the high-risk group at initial diagnosis. The white blood cell (WBC) counts of 25 cases (53.2%) at initial diagnosis were <50×10⁹/L, 11 cases (23.4%) were (50-100)×10⁹/L, and 11 cases (23.4%) ≥100×10⁹/L. The main immunophenotype was common-B ALL (44 cases, 91.7%). Other leukemia fusion genes such as BCR-ABL1, MLL-AF4, and TEL-AML1 were not observed in this cohort of patients. All patients received the treatment of NPCLC-ALL2008 protocol, and 5 cases (10.4%) occurred poor prednisone response. All the 48 cases achieved complete remission (CR) after the induction treatments. The last follow-up date was April 30, 2023. A total of 5 children relapsed, including 1 case with intermediate risk and 4 cases with high risk. The recurrence rate in the high-risk group was significantly higher than that in the intermediate- and low-risk groups (both P < 0.05). Most relapsed children had elevated WBC counts at initial diagnosis. Among them, WBC counts ≥100×10⁹/L was observed in 4 cases. The recurrence rate among children with WBC counts ≥100×10⁹/L was significantly higher than that with WBC counts <100×10⁹/L (P < 0.01). Four deaths occurred in this cohort, of which 3 died of leukemia recurrence. The 10-year event-free survival rate and 10-year overall survival rate of the 48 children with positive E2A-PBX1 fusion gene were 87.5%±4.8% and 91.7%±4.0%, respectively. CONCLUSION In ALL children with positive E2A-PBX1 fusion gene, those with elevated WBC counts and high risk stratification at initial diagnosis are more likely to experience recurrence. Recurrence is the main cause of death in this group. It is suggested that such kind of children receive more intensive chemotherapy or undergo hematopoietic stem cell transplantation as early as possible to further improve prognosis.
