Ecological cultivation is an important way for the sustainable production of traditional Chinese medicine in the context of the carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals. Facility cultivation and simulative habitat cultivation modes have been developed and applied to develop the endangered Dendrobium huoshanense on the basis of protection. However, the differences in the greenhouse gas emissions and global warming potential of these cultivation modes remain unexplored, which limits the accurate assessment of carbon-friendly ecological cultivation modes of D. huoshanense. Greenhouse gas emission flux monitoring based on the static chamber method provides an effective way to solve this problem. Therefore, this study conducted a field experiment in the facility cultivation and simulative habitat cultivation modes at a D. huoshanense cultivation base in Dabie Mountains, Anhui Province. From April 2023 to March 2024, samples of greenhouse gases were collected every month, and the concentrations of CO_2, CH_4, and N_2O of the samples were then detected by gas chromatography. The greenhouse gas emission fluxes, cumulative emissions, and global warming potential were further calculated, and the following results were obtained.(1)The two cultivation modes of D. huoshanense showed significant differences in greenhouse gas emission fluxes, especially the CO_2 emission flux, with a pattern of facility cultivation>simulative habitat cultivation [(35.60±11.70)mg·m~(-2)·h~(-1) vs(2.10±4.59)mg·m~(-2)·h~(-1)].(2) The annual cumulative CO_2 emission flux in the case of facility cultivation was significantly higher than that of simulative habitat cultivation[(3 077.00±842.00)kg·hm~(-2) vs(221.00±332.00)kg·hm~(-2)], while no significant difference was found in annual cumulative CH_4 and N_2O emission fluxes.(3) The facility cultivation mode had a significantly higher global warming potential than the simulative habitat cultivation mode [(3 053.00±847.00)kg·hm~(-2) vs(196.00±362.00)kg·hm~(-2)]. Overall, the simulative habitat cultivation of D. huoshanense has obvious carbon-friendly characteristics compared with facility cultivation, which is in line with the concept of ecological cultivation of medicinal plants. This study is of great reference significance for the implementation and promotion of the ecological cultivation mode of D. huoshanense under carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals.

Objective To investigate the influence of body mass index(BMI)on individualized analgesic effect,inflammatory factors and safety of sufentanil in elderly patients after proximal femoral nail anti-rotation(PFNA)surgery.Methods A total of 161 elderly patients who received PFNA surgery in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital Group Suqian Hospital from January 2022 to December 2023 were selected as study subjects.Patients with BMI<18.5 kg/m2 were set as Group A,patients with BMI ranging from 18.5 kg/m2 to 23.9 kg/m2 were set as Group B,patients with BMI ranging from 24.0 kg/m2 to 35.0 kg/m2 were set as Group C.After operation,individualized analgesia was performed with an intravenous patient-controlled analgesia pump of 2 μg/kg sufentanil based on body weight,and the postoperative pain degree,inflammatory factors,analgesia condition and adverse reactions of patients in the three groups were compared.Results At 8 hours,12 hours,24 hours and 48 hours after surgery,the pain visual analogue scale(VAS)scores of patietns in group B and group C were significantly lower than those in group A(P<0.05).At 12 hours,24 hours and 48 hours after surgery,the pain VAS scores of patients in group C were significantly lower than those in group B(P<0.05).The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),and interleukin-6(IL-6)1 day after surgery of patients in group B and group C were significantly lower than those in group A(P<0.05).The pressing times of analgesia pump and the duration of obvious pain within 48 hours after surgery of patients in group A were significantly more/longer than those in group B and group C(P<0.05),and the analgesic satisfaction score was significantly lower than those in group B and group C(P<0.05).The total incidence of analgesic adverse reactions in group C was significantly higher than those in group A and group B(P<0.05).Conclusion BMI may affect the individualized analgesic effect,inflammatory factors and safety of sufentanil in elderly patients undergoing PFNA surgery.Underweight patients may have insufficient analgesia,while overweight or obese patients may have excessive analgesia,which may affect the analgesic safety.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with half-dose recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 minutes.Methods From October 2021 to August 2022,a total of 200 STEMI patients in eight centers were included and randomly assigned in a 1﹕1 ratio to either r-SAK group or control group.Patients received loading doses of aspirin and ticagrelor and intravenous heparin and were randomized to receive an intravenous bolus of either 5 mg r-SAK or normal saline prior to PCI.The outcomes were set as ST-segment resolution(STR)at 60-90 minutes after PCI,the proportion and transition of pathological Q waves on the 5th day after PCI,and the proportion of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)peaking within 12 hours of onset.The safety outcome was major bleeding events defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC)≥type 3 bleeding during hospitalization.Results Compared with the control group,the r-SAK group had a higher proportion of STR≥70%within 60-90 minutes after PCI(58.3%vs.40.3%,P=0.009);a lower proportion of pathological Q waves(59.1%vs.74.1%,P=0.040);a lower rate of Q wave progression(14.8%vs.43.2%,P＜0.001);a higher rate of Q wave disappearance(12.5%vs.3.7%,P=0.027);and a higher proportion of hs-cTnT peaking within 12 hours of symptom onset[31/40(77.5%)vs.17/33(51.5%),P=0.027].Regarding the safety outcome,no significant difference in BARC≥type 3 bleeding was found between the two groups during hospitalization(P＞0.05).Conclusions For STEMI patients who were expected to undergo primary PCI within 120 minutes of symptom onset,the facilitated PCI with half-dose r-SAK significantly increased the proportion of STR≥70%at 60-90 minutes after PCI,reduced the formation of pathological Q waves,and shortened the time to peak hs-cTnT,without increasing the risk of bleeding,which should be an alternative reperfusion strategy worthy of further study.
