AIM To evaluate the quality of Croci Stigma from different producing areas.METHODS The analysis was performed on a 25 ℃ thermostatic Waters Acquity UPLC HSS T3 column(2.1 mm× 100 mm,1.8μm),with the mobile phase comprising of 0.1％phosphoric acid-acetonitrile flowing at 0.35 mL/min in a gradient elution manner,and the detection wavelengths were set at 254,440 nm.The UPLC fingerprints were established,after which orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis was performed,picrocrocin,crocin-Ⅰ,crocin-Ⅱ,crocin-Ⅲ,crocin-Ⅳ contents and chromaticity values(L*,a*,b*,E*ab)were determined,Pearson correlation analysis was adopted in the investigation of correlations between chromaticity values and internal constituent contents.RESULTS There were 14 common peaks in the fingerprints for 22 batches of medicinal materials with the similarities of more than 0.98.Various batches of medicinal materials were clustered into 2 types,7 quality difference components were screened.crocin-Ⅰ content in medicinal materials from different producing areas demonstrated significant differences(P＜0.05);the redder the color of medicinal material,the higher the contents of crocins.Picrocrocin,crocin-Ⅰ,crocin-Ⅱ,crocin-Ⅳ contents displayed highly significant correlations with colorimetric values(P＜0.01),while crocin-Ⅲ content exhibited no significant correlation with the latter(P＞0.05).CONCLUSION This accurate and reliable method can provide references for the quality control and color-quality relationship elucidation of Croci Stigma.

Renal injury is one of the common ad-verse reactions in the clinical application of chemo-therapy drugs,which is the main reason why the chemotherapy can not be carried out in the whole cycle.The pathological mechanism of chemothera-py-induced renal injury is very complicated,mainly involving oxidative stress,inflammatory response,apoptosis,mitochondrial dysfunction,and regula-tion of transporters,causing pathological damage to renal tubules or glomeruli.At present,there is no specific pharmacological intervention for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced renal injury.As a treasure of traditional Chinese medicine,tradi-tional Chinese medicine has the advantages of overall regulation,multi-targeting,small adverse re-actions and no obvious drug dependence in the prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-in-duced renal injury.In recent years,there have been more and more studies on the intervention of che-motherapy-induced renal injury by multi-compo-nent and multi-directional intervention of active components,extracts and compounds of tradition-al Chinese medicine,and some progress has been made.A large number of studies have shown that the potential mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine in preventing and treating renal injury in-duced by chemotherapy include inhibiting oxida-tive stress,reducing inflammatory response and in-hibiting apoptosis.Although there are many stud-ies on the mechanism of action of traditional Chi-nese medicine in the treatment of chemotherapy-induced renal injury,there is still a lack of systemat-ic review.Based on this,this paper summarizes the mechanism of renal injury induced by chemothera-py and the intervention of traditional Chinese medi-cine,so as to provide theoretical support for its clinical treatment and new drug innovation.

Objective To explore the thoughts and experiences of exercise adherence in breast cancer patients undergoing endocrine therapy,aims to provide reference for targeted intervention.Methods Employing purposive sampling,a descriptive qualitative study was conducted from Octomber 2023 to November 2024,and 24 breast cancer patients receiving endocrine therapy who visited a tertiary-level hospital in Tianjin,China,were selected for semi-structured in-depth interviews.The data was analyzed through traditional content analysis to extract themes.Results 3 primary themes and 6 sub-themes were identified,including sense of benefits from exercise(including physical benefits and psychological well-being),factors influencing exercise adherence(barriers and facilitators),and supportive needs for exercise adherence(including professional support and guidance,as well as emotional support and companionship).Conclusion Healthcare providers should consider the influencing factors,supportive needs of behavior change,and exercise experiences of breast cancer patients receiving endocrine therapy.Developing targeted exercise rehabilitation programs to address these needs could enhance exercise adherence.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum uric acid(SUA)levels and incident chronic kidney disease(CKD)in middle-aged and elderly Chinese population and gender differences.Methods Based on the longitudinal survey data of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study from 2011 to 2015,the CKD-Epidemiology Collaboration cystatin C formula was used to estimate the glomerular filtration rate(eGFR),and 4 119 participants with normal renal function(eGFR≥60 mL·min-1·1.72 m-2)at baseline were included.Incident CKD was defined as eGFR<60 mL·min-1·1.72 m-2 at the follow-up in 2015.Logistic regression analysis was used to analysis the association of SUA levels at baseline and incident CKD among different genders.Restricted cubic spline analysis was used to analyze the dose-response relationship.Results After 4-year follow-up,127 participants developed incident CKD,including 57 males and 70 females.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated SUA levels were independently associated with the risk of incident CKD(OR=1.532,P<0.001).For each 1 mg/dL increase in SUA,the risk of incident CKD increased by 33.6%in males(OR=1.336,P=0.012)and 77.5%in females(OR=1.755,P<0.001).Restricted cubic spline analysis showed a linear positive correlation between SUA levels and incident CKD in both males and females.Participants were divided into four groups according to SUA quartiles(Q1-Q4).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated a significant increase in the risk of incident CKD in Q3 group(3.75 mg/dL4.43 mg/dL)compared with Q1 group in females(Q3 group:OR=2.571,P=0.045;Q4 group:OR=3.666,P=0.005).Conclusion SUA is an independent risk factor for incident CKD in the middle-aged and elderly population.In females,serum uric acid levels exceeding 3.75 mg/dL are associated with an increased risk of incident CKD.

This study was aimed at establishing a method of ultra-fast quantitative PCR for Brucella detection.We used an exogenous recombinant plasmid as the internal reference and targeted the T4SS secretion system,an important Brucella viru-lence factor,to design specific primers and probes.The sensitivity,specificity,and repeatability of this method were evaluated,and a standard curve was constructed.The coincidence rate of detection findings with this method versus quantitative PCR was determined.This method markedly decreased the detection time to only 10 minutes.The standard curve demonstrated a good linear relationship(Y=-3.410 7x+38.357,R2=0.998 5)with a low minimum detection limit of 10 copies/μL.The method exhibited good specificity and did not specifically amplify several common clinical bacteria other than Brucella.The de-tection of three concentrations of positive plasmids yielded coefficients of variation(CVs)of 0.20％to 0.91％,thus demonstra-ting the method's excellent repeatability.Furthermore,140 clinical samples were analyzed concurrently with the fluorescence PCR method,which yielded a 100％compliance rate and consistent results.Our findings indicated that the Brucella ultra-fast quantitative PCR was ultrafast;had high sensitivity,high specificity,and good specificity;and can be used for the clinical de-tection of Brucella and emergency investigation of epidemics.Therefore,this method is valuable for the early diagnosis of Bru-cella.

Aim To investigate the effects of rosavin on hepatocellular steatosis and its mechanism of action.Methods AML-12 and HepG2 cells were induced to undergo hepatocellular steatosis by free fatty acids(FFA),and the optimal inducing concentration was determined by oil red O staining and CCK-8 assay.The cell activity was detected by CCK-8 assay after ro-savin treatment,and the lipid droplet accumulation was observed by oil red O staining.The levels of triglycer-ide(TG),total cholesterol(TC),glutamic oxalacetic transaminase(AST),glutamic pyruvic transaminase(ALT),superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione per-oxidase(GSH-Px),and malondialdehyde(MDA)were detected by kits.The potential targets of rosavin in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)were ana-lyzedby network pharmacology and molecular docking,and the expression of core candidate targets before and after the rosavin intervention was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.Results Hepatocyte steatosis was induced by FFA,and the intervention of rosavin(25,50 μmol·L-1)reduced the number of intracellular lipid droplets in hepatocytes in a dose-de-pendent manner,also lowered the cellular levels of TG,TC,AST,ALT,elevated the levels of SOD and GSH-Px,and reduced the levels of MDA.Network pharma-cological analysis and molecular docking yielded five core candidate targets:NOS3,MAPK14,PPARG,TNF-α,and IGF-1,and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR showed that the action of loxavir significantly re-duced the gene expression of TNF-α and PPARG in hepatocytes after FFA induction.Conclusions Rosa-vin can attenuate the inflammatory response,oxidative stress level,and lipid accumulation in hepatocytes by modulating TNF-α and PPARG,thereby ameliorating FFA-induced hepatocellular steatosis.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of serum solute carrier family member 11 (SLC7A11) and acyl CoA synthase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4) and the degree of neurological impairment and prognosis in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI). Methods 60 ACI patients admitted to the Department of Neurology,Suzhou Jiulong Hospital,School of Medicine,Shanghai Jiaotong University from October 2019 to December 2022 were selected as the ACI group,and 60 healthy people in the same period were taken as a control group. Serum SLC7A11 and ACSL4 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). According to the degree of neurological impairment[assessed by the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)],60 patients with ACI were divided into a mild group(n=41) and a severe group (n=19). According to the prognosis of patients 3 months after discharge[assessed by the modified Rankin scale (mRS) score],60 patients with ACI were divided into good group(n=47) and bad group(n=13),and the serum SLC7A11 and ACSL4 levels of ACI patients in different groups were compared. Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlation between serum SLC7A11 and ACSL4 levels and the degree of neurological impairment and prognosis,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve was used to analyze the value of serum SLC7A11 and ACSL4 levels in predicting poor prognosis of ACI patients.Results The serum SLC7A11 (16.88±3.19ng/ml)level in ACI group was lower than that in the control group(25.13±5.61ng/ml),and the ACSL4(40.01±4.23ng/ml)level was higher than that in the control group(23.29±5.72ng/ml),with statistical significance (t=9.902,18.205,all P<0.05).Serum SLC7A11(15.16±3.91ng/ml)level in ACI patients in the severe group was lower than that in the mild group(17.68±2.41ng/ml),and ACSL4 (42.08±5.02ng/ml) level was higher than that in a mild group(39.05±3.40ng/ml),the serum SLC7A11(14.25±2.95 ng/ml)level of ACI patients in the bad group was lower than that in the good group(17.61±2.85 ng/ml),and the ACSL4 (43.54±3.87 ng/ml)level was higher than that in the good group(39.03±3.78 ng/ml),and the differences were statistical significance (t=3.070,2.747;3.735,3.789,all P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum SLC7A11 level was negatively correlated with NISS and mRS scores of ACI patients (r=-0.416,-0.378,all P<0.05). The serum ACSL4 level was positively correlated with NISS and mRS scores (r=0.351,0.415,all P<0.05). The AUC (95％ CI) of serum SLC7A11 and ACSL4 in predicting the poor prognosis of ACI patients was 0.810 (0.688～0.900),and the sensitivity and specificity were 68.09％ and 92.31％,respectively,which were better than those of individual detection (Z=2.176,1.977,P=0.030,0.048). Conclusion The combination of serum SLC7A11 and ACSL4 has a high predictive efficiency for the poor prognosis of ACI patients.
