This article systematically analyzed the historical evolution of the origin， scientific name， producing area， quality evaluation， harvesting and processing， and other aspects of Quisqualis Fructus by consulting the ancient materia medica， medical books， prescription books， local literature and combining with the modern literature and standards， summarized and explored the development rules of its medicinal properties and efficacy along with their underlying causes， in order to provide support for the development and utilization of famous classical formulas containing this herb. According to the textual research， Shijunzi was first recorded as Liuqiuzi in Nanfang Caomuzhuang of the Jin dynasty， and the name of Shijunzi was first used in Kaibao Bencao of the Song dynasty， which has been consistently used throughout subsequent dynasties， and there were also aliases such as Junziren， Sijunzi， and Dujilizi. The mainstream source of Quisqualis Fructus used in the past dynasties has been the dried mature fruits of Quisqualis indica， a plant belonging to the family Combretaceae. In modern times， its variety Q. indica var. villosa has also been recorded as the medicinal material of Quisqualis Fructus. In 2007， the Flora of China（English edition） designated Q. indica var. villosa as a synonym of Q. indica. Today， the accepted name of Shijunzi is updated to Combretum indicum. According to ancient herbal records， the producing areas of Quisqualis Fructus were Guangdong， Hong Kong， Macao， Guangxi， Hainan， Sichuan and Fujian， and then gradually expanded to Yunnan， Taiwan， Jiangxi and Guizhou. Since the Song dynasty， two major production regions have gradually emerged in Sichuan， Chongqing and Fujian. Currently， it is primarily cultivated in Chongqing， Guangxi and other areas， with Chongqing yielding the highest output. Since modern times， superior quality has been defined by large size， a purple-black surface， plump grains， and a yellowish-white kernel. According to ancient herbal records， the harvesting period of Quisqualis Fructus was the July and August of the lunar calendar， mostly used raw after shelling or with the shell intact， it underwent processing methods such as cleaning， slicing， mixing， steaming， roasting， stewing， and frying. Currently， the harvesting period is autumn， followed by sun-drying or low-heat drying， with processing methods including cleaning， stir-frying， and stewing. In ancient and modern literature， the records of the properties， functions and indications of Quisqualis Fructus are basically the same， that is， sweet in taste， warm in nature， predominantly non-toxic， belonging to the spleen and stomach meridians. It possesses effects of insecticide， decontamination and invigorating spleen for ascariasis， enterobiasis， abdominal pain due to worm accumulation and infantile malnutrition.The contraindications for use primarily include avoiding consumption by individuals without parasitic infestations， limiting use for those with spleen-stomach deficiency-cold， refraining from drinking hot tea during medication， and avoiding excessive intake. Based on the textual research， it is suggested that the dried mature fruits of Q. indica should be used as the medicinal material for the development of famous classical formulas containing Quisqualis Fructus. Processing methods may be chosen according to prescription requirements， and the raw products is recommended for medicinal use if not specified.

ObjectiveTo understand the seropositivity of neutralizing antibodies (NAb) and low-level NAb against SARS-CoV-2 infection in the community residents, and to explore the impact of COVID-19 vaccination and SARS-CoV-2 infection on the levels of NAb in human serum. MethodsOn the ground of surveillance cohort for acute infectious diseases in community populations in Shanghai, a proportional stratified sampling method was used to enroll the subjects at a 20% proportion for each age group (0‒14, 15‒24, 25‒59, and ≥60 years old). Blood samples collection and serum SARS-CoV-2 NAb concentration testing were conducted from March to April 2023. Low-level NAb were defined as below the 25^th percentile of NAb. ResultsA total of 2 230 participants were included, the positive rate of NAb was 97.58%, and the proportion of low-level NAb was 25.02% (558/2 230). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that age, infection history and vaccination status were correlated with low-level NAb (all P<0.05). Individuals aged 60 years and above had the highest risk of low-level NAb. There was a statistically significant interaction between booster vaccination and one single infection (aOR=0.38, 95%CI: 0.19‒0.77). Compared to individuals without vaccination, among individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 once, both primary immunization (aOR=0.23, 95%CI: 0.16‒0.35) and booster immunization (aOR=0.12, 95%CI: 0.08‒0.17) significantly reduced the risk of low-level NAb; among individuals without infections, only booster immunization (aOR=0.28, 95%CI: 0.14‒0.52) showed a negative correlation with the risk of low-level NAb. ConclusionsThe population aged 60 and above had the highest risk of low-level NAb. Regardless of infection history, a booster immunization could reduce the risk of low-level NAb. It is recommended that eligible individuals , especially the elderly, should get vaccinated in a timely manner to exert the protective role of NAb.

Objective:To explore the latent class of childhood abuse and recent life stress in adolescent depression patients, and its effect on intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) treatment efficacy.Methods:From August 2023 to February 2024, a total of 60 adolescent patients with depression were enrolled. The Chinese version of the maltreatment and abuse chronology of exposure scale (MACE), adolescent self-rating life events check list (ASLEC), Montgomery-Asberg depression rating scale (MADRS)and suicidal ideation scale 5 (SSI-5)were used to assess all subjects. Using latent class analysis, subjects were divided into different subgroups according to 16 factors of MACE and ASLEC. Brain network analysis was conducted using the Dosenbach brain atlas with 160 regions of interest, which were divided into seven large-scale brain subnetworks: visual network (VN), somatosensory motor network (SMN), dorsal attention network (DAN), ventral attention network (VAN), subcortical network (SCN), frontoparietal network (FPN), and default mode network (DMN). Brain network functional connectivity analysis was performed using the DPABI plugin on MATLAB R2022b platform to compare differences in functional connectivity at both edge and network levels between subjects. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 27.0 software, employing Shapiro-Wilk test, chi-square test, independent samples t-test, and Mann-Whitney U test. Results:Based on latent class analysis, subjects were divided into high abuse-high stress group ( n=38) and low abuse-high stress group ( n=22). At baseline, the high abuse-high stress group showed significantly higher scores in SSI-5 (6.39±2.26 vs 3.45(0, 5.25)), Z=-3.628, P<0.001) and MADRS item 10 (3.00(2.00, 5.00) vs 2.00(0.75, 3.25), Z=-2.794, P=0.005) compared to the low abuse-high stress group, while there was no statistically significant difference in the total score of MADRS between the two groups (27.77±4.19, 26.59±4.74, t=1.972, P=0.053). There was no statistically significant difference in the D-value of MADRS score before and after treatment between the two groups (8.45±6.03, 7.27±5.99, t=0.729, P=0.469) and the D-value of MADRS item 10 score before and after treatment between the two groups (1.00 (0, 3.00), 1.00 (0, 1.00), Z=-1.189, P=0.234). The high abuse-high group showed significantly weakened functional connectivity at the edge level compared to low abuse-high stress group at baseline ( P<0.05, NBS corrected). In the high abuse-high stress group, the mean FC values in the differential brain regions at baseline showed significant negative correlation with baseline suicidal ideation scores ( r=-0.475, P=0.003). Conclusion:The different patterns of childhood abuse and recent life stress affect the baseline clinical presentation and brain network functional connectivity of adolescent depression patients. However, the high abuse-high stress group and low abuse-high stress group showed similar responses to iTBS treatment.

Objective To explore the medium and long term curative effect of laparoscopic treatment of incarcerated indirect inguinal hernia and summarize the experience of laparoscopic treatment and the characteristics of incarcerated indirect inguinal hernia.Methods A retrospective summary was made on clinical data of 170 children with incarcerated hernia who underwent laparoscopic surgery between January 2016 to February 2024,including 109 boys and 61 girls.The patient's age ranged from 11 days to 11 years old,with a median of 8 months and 27 days.There were 88 cases of right incarcerated hernia and 82 cases of left incarcerated hernia.The incarcerating time (from onset to surgery) was 0.5-360 h,with a median time of 24 h.Results The surgical time was 11-191 min (mean,51.9±29.5 min).Conversion to open surgery was required in 20 cases,in which 14 cases were engaged through the inguinal region for reduction of incarcerated organ and removal of necrotic organ,and 6 cases were treated through umbilical incisions (4 cases of intestinal resection and anastomosis and 2 cases of ileal repair).Most of incarcerated organs among them were small intestine (ileum,84 cases),followed by the ovaries and fallopian tubes (53 cases),and ileocecal region (15 cases),as well as the greater momentum (11 cases).During the surgery,148 cases underwent manual reduction through laparoscopic surgery,14 cases underwent open inguinal region reduction,and 8 cases underwent self-reduction.There were 5 cases ( 2.9％) of small intestinal necrosis,3 cases (1.8％) of greater omentum necrosis,2 cases (1.2％) of small intestine perforation,2 cases (1.2％) of small intestine sarcoplasmic layer damage,2 cases (1.2％) of ovarian fallopian tube necrosis,and 1 case of colonic seromuscular layer damage.The intraoperative exploration revealed 109 cases ( 64.1％) of contralateral hidden hernia,7 cases ( 4.1％) of cryptorchidism,7 cases (4.1％) of umbilical hernia,1 case (0.6％) of Meckel' s diverticulum,and 1 case (0.6％) of ovarian cyst.Intestinal incarceration was seen in 106 cases,with 32 cases (30.2％) showing vomiting symptoms before surgery.Among them,all the 7 cases of necrosis or perforation of incarcerated intestinal tract had vomiting,2 out of 3 cases of damage to the seromuscular layer of incarcerated intestinal tract had vomiting,41.2％ cases (7/17) of blue purple incarcerated intestinal tract had vomiting,and 20.3％ cases (16/79) of incarcerated intestinal tract with fair blood supply had vomiting.The hospital stay was 1-11 d ( median,1 d).Follow-up period ranged from 4 months to 8 years and 5 months,with a median of 4 years and 11 months.Among them,51 cases were less than 3 years,38 cases were between 3 and 5 years,and 81 cases were over 5 years.Recurrence was seen in 2 cases (1.2％).One patient (0.6％) suffered from inguinal incision infection,and there were no complications such as intestinal obstruction or iatrogenic cryptorchidism.Conclusions Laparoscopic treatment of incarcerated indirect inguinal hernia has good medium and long term curative effect.During the surgery,it is necessary to consider the difficulty of hernia reduction and the blood supply of incarcerated organ for timely conversion to open surgery.Once a child with incarcerated hernia has vomiting symptoms before surgery,it indicates blood flow of incarcerated intestinal tract is affected,which requires a timely surgical treatment.

Objective To study the evaluation value of lung injury score(LIS)and advanced glycation end products(AGEs)expression levels on the prognosis of elderly patients with sepsis-related acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome(ALI/ARDS).Methods A total of 98 elderly patients with sepsis-related ALI/ARDS admitted to First Branch of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from March 2019 to April 2021 were selected as the research group,and the patients were divided into two sub-groups according to their survival within 30 d after admission:the survival group(55 cases)and the death group(43 cases).Another 51 elderly patients with non-ALI/ARDS sepsis admitted to First Branch of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University in the same period were selected as the control group.After admission,the clinical data of patients were recorded,and the levels of serum creatinine,troponin I,B-type brain natriuretic peptide(BNP),serum C-reactive protein(CRP)and procalcitonin(PCT)were de-tected.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the levels of AGEs in patients'serum.The LIS score was evaluated by LIS scale.With clinical factors as independent variables and prognosis as dependent variables,Logistic regression curve was used to analyze the death factors of elderly sepsis-related ALI/ARDS patients.Results AGEs levels,LIS scores,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ)scores decreased sequentially in the death group,survival group,and control group(all P<0.05).The levels of lactic acid,blood glucose,troponin I,PCT,BNP and CRP in arterial blood of patients in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group and the control group(P<0.05).The results showed that arterial lactate,blood glucose,troponin I,PCT,BNP,CRP,AGEs,APACHE Ⅱ score,and LIS score were all independent risk factors for mortality in elderly sepsis-related ALI/ARDS patients(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of LIS score predicting prognosis in elderly sepsis-related ALI/ARDS pa-tients was 0.857(95%CI:0.821-0.911),and AUC of serum AGEs was 0.861(95%CI:0.809-0.908).LIS score and AGEs level had certain predictive value for the prognosis of elderly sepsis-related ALI/ARDS pa-tients.Conclusion The LIS score and AGEs level of the elderly patients with sepsis-related ALI/ARDS are independent risk factors of death,which have important predictive value for prognosis.

Objective To explore the quantitative evaluation of integrity risk prevention and control in public hospitals,provide reference for improving the quality and efficiency of integrity risk prevention and control.Methods Self-designed"Inspection Standards for Integrity Risk Prevention and Control of Power Matters in Public Hospitals"was used to score and rate the power matters provided by each functional department/clinical department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from three aspects:the clarity of power operation process,the accuracy of finding integrity risk points,the effectiveness of prevention and control measures.Results A total of 236 power matters of the hospital were inspected for integrity risk prevention and control,and according to the inspection criteria,57 items were rated as first grade,103 items were rated as second grade,and 76 items were rated as third grade,accounting for 24.15％,43.64％and 32.20％,respectively.The score for the special work of integrity risk prevention and control was 5.82±1.92 points,of which the process dimension score was 2.11±0.75 points,the risk points dimension score was 1.89±0.92 points,the prevention and control dimension score is 1.89± 0.79 points,which reflects the problems of unclear workflow,inaccurate finding of individual risk points,and unspecified prevention and control measures in some units.Conclusion Hospitals should focus on the concreteness,accuracy,salience and quantification in the long-term construction of integrity risk prevention and control from the aspects of thought,behavior,effectiveness and evaluation.
