ObjectiveTo investigate the diagnostic value of coagulation function indicators and proteinuria in preeclampsia and its severity assessment. MethodsA total of 239 pregnant women who visited from January 2022 to December 2023 were selected as research subjects. They were divided into healthy control group （n=50）， non-gestational hypertension group （n=39）， and gestational hypertension group （n=150） based on clinical diagnosis. The gestational hypertension group was further subdivided into three subgroups： simple hypertension group （n=50）， mild preeclampsia group （n=50）， and severe preeclampsia group （n=50）. The study compared differences in plasma protein S （PS）， plasma protein C （PC）， fibrin degradation products （FDP）， fibrin monomer （FM）， and proteinuria levels among different groups. The correlation between proteinuria and coagulation function indicators in patients with gestational hypertension was analyzed， and ROC curves were used to analyze the diagnostic efficacy of coagulation indicators and proteinuria for gestational hypertension and different stages of preeclampsia. ResultsThe gestational hypertension group showed lower PS and PC values compared to the non-gestational hypertension group and healthy control group， while FDP， FM values， and proteinuria levels were higher than those in the non-gestational hypertension group and healthy control group （P<0.05）. Significant differences in coagulation indicators and proteinuria levels were observed among pregnant women with different degrees of gestational hypertension （P<0.05）. The AUC values for diagnosing gestational hypertension using PS， PC，FDP， FM， and proteinuria were 0.928， 0.957， 0.968， 0.948， and 0.932 respectively （P<0.000 1）. For diagnosing simple hypertension and mild preeclampsia， the AUC values were 0.875， 0.777， 0.830， 0.679， and 0.936 respectively （P<0.01）. For diagnosing mild and severe preeclampsia， the AUC values were 0.901， 0.776， 0.780， 0.807， and 0.848 respectively （P<0.000 1）. ConclusionCoagulation function indicators and proteinuria show significant differences between healthy pregnant women and those with gestational hypertension. PS， PC， FDP， FM， and proteinuria levels vary among pregnant women with different stages of preeclampsia. The aforementioned indicators exhibit certain diagnostic efficacy for gestational hypertension and preeclampsia.

Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge （Lamiaceae） is a medicinal plant widely used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Chloroplasts are double-membrane-bound, chlorophyll-containing organelles and responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells. The structural information of chloroplast genomes serves as the foundation for precise exogenous gene insertion, site selection, and chloroplast genome modification. In this study, a comprehensive analysis and comparison of 125 chloroplast genomes from S. miltiorrhiza and 76 congeneric species were conducted, focusing on sequence characteristics, codon usage bias, simple sequence repeats （SSRs）, contraction/expansion of chloroplast genome boundaries, and phylogenetic relationships, which could provide a theoretical foundation for advancing chloroplast genetic engineering, genetic diversity analysis, molecular breeding, and species identification within the Salvia genus.

Objective To explore the application value of simple drawing line puncture combined with visual articular process arthroplasty in lateral foraminoscopy.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 89 patients with single-segment lumbar disc herniation treated with lateral foraminoscopy from May 2019 to December 2022,including traditional transforaminal endoscopic spine system(TESSYS)technology(conventional group,35 cases)and simple drawing line puncture combined with visual articular process arthroplasty(modified group,54 cases).The fluoroscopy times,puncture time,and operation time of the two groups were compared.The Visual Analogue Score(VAS),Oswestry Disability Index(ODI),and MacNab criteria were used to evaluate the surgical effect at 3 d after surgery and at the last follow-up.Results All the operations were successfully completed without conversion to open surgery.In the conventional group,there was 1 case of L4 nerve root injury,who was considered intraoperative nerve root compression injury.There was no abnormality in lower limb muscle strength after surgery,but hyperalgesia and numbness in the innervated cutaneous area accompanied by nocturnal cramps.The patient was given treatment with pregabalin,mecobalamin,vitamin B1 and B6 for 2 months,and returned to normal at 1 year of follow-up.The other cases had no complications such as dural injury,abdominal organ injury,or incision infection.Recurrence occurred in 1 case in the conventional group and 2 cases in the modified group,and all the 3 cases occurred within 3 months after operation.Among them,2 patients had severe symptoms and underwent endoscopic revision again,and the other patient improved after conservative treatment.Compared with the conventional group,the puncture times[(1.8±0.7)times vs.(7.5±1.1)times,t=27.543,P=0.000].fluoroscopy times[(5.7±1.8)times vs.(23.2±2.2)times,t=41.235,P=0.000]and operation time[(72.7±7.2)min vs.(92.7±7.7)min,t=12.317,P=0.000]in the modified group were significantly reduced or shortened,and there was no significant difference in postoperative hospital stay[(3.2±0.6)d vs.(3.3±0.6)d,t=0.062,P=0.951]between the two groups.The conventional group was followed up for(14.0±1.3)months and the modified group was followed up for(13.6±1.2)months.There were no significant differences in VAS scores[(1.5±0.6)points vs.(1.6±0.7)points,t=0.751,P=0.455].ODI[(10.8±3.4)％vs.(11.8±3.9)％,t=1.284,P=0.202].and excellent and good rate of MacNab criteria[100％(54/54)vs.100％(35/35),Z=-0.981,P=0.327]between the two groups at the last follow-up.Conclusions Simple drawing line puncture combined with visual articular process arthroplasty can significantly improve the accuracy of intervertebral foramen aspiration,with simple operation,reduced X-ray exposure for doctors and patients,shortened operation time,and improved surgical safety.It is worthy of promotion and application in percutaneous foraminoscopy.

Paclitaxel (PTX), a valuable natural product derived from Taxus species, exhibits remarkable anti-cancer properties. It penetrates nanopores in microtubule walls, interacting with tubulin on the lumen surface and disrupting microtubule dynamics, thereby inducing cytotoxic effects in cancer cells. PTX and its derivatives have gained approval for treating various diseases due to their low toxicity, high efficiency, and broad-spectrum application. The widespread success and expanding applications of PTX have led to increased demand, raising concerns about accessibility. Consequently, researchers globally have focused on developing alternative production methods and applying nanocarriers in PTX delivery systems to enhance bioavailability. This review examines the challenges and advancements in PTX sourcing, production, physicochemical properties, anti-cancer mechanisms, clinical applications, trials, and chemo-immunotherapy. It aims to provide a comprehensive reference for the rational development and effective utilization of PTX.

Lignans are a powerful weapon for plants to resist stresses and have diverse bioactive functions to protect human health. Elucidating the mechanisms of stereoselective biosynthesis and response to stresses of lignans is important for the guidance of plant improvement. Here, we identified the complete pathway to stereoselectively synthesize antiviral (-)-lariciresinol glucosides in Isatis indigotica roots, which consists of three-step sequential stereoselective enzymes DIR1/2, PLR, and UGT71B2. DIR1 was further identified as the key gene in respoJanuary 2024nse to stresses and was able to trigger stress defenses by mediating the elevation in lignan content. Mechanistically, the phytohormone-responsive ERF transcription factor LTF1 colocalized with DIR1 in the cell periphery of the vascular regions in mature roots and helped resist biotic and abiotic stresses by directly regulating the expression of DIR1. These systematic results suggest that DIR1 as the first common step of the lignan pathway cooperates with PLR and UGT71B2 to stereoselectively synthesize (-)-lariciresinol derived antiviral lignans in I. indigotica roots and is also a part of the LTF1-mediated regulatory network to resist stresses. In conclusion, the LTF1-DIR1 module is an ideal engineering target to improve plant Defenses while increasing the content of valuable lignans in plants.
