As a traditional Chinese medicinal material， Citri Sarcodactylis Fructus is often used as medicine after steaming to reduce its pungency and give full play to its medicinal effects. By consulting the relevant literature， this paper intends to sort out the related researches on the processing history， modern processing standard records， flavor and meridian tropism， efficacy， processing and taking methods， processing technology， chemical composition， pharmacological effects and quality analysis of Citri Sarcodactylis Fructus. It is found that the processing methods of Citri Sarcodactylis Fructus in the past dynasties are mainly roasting， distilled into dew， aging， frying， salting and steaming， of which steaming is the most common. In modern times， steaming is mainly used in Guangdong and Sichuan. The descriptions of flavor and meridian tropism and efficacy of Citri Sarcodactylis Fructus in the past dynasties are basically consistent with the modern descriptions. Its taste is pungent， bitter and acidic， and it is warm in nature. It belongs to the liver， spleen， stomach and lung meridians. Citri Sarcodactylis Fructus contains volatile oil， flavonoids and their glycosides， coumarins and limonins and other compounds. In recent years， high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC）， gas chromatography-mass spectrometry （GC-MS） and ultra performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry （UPLC-MS） and other methods are commonly used for the chemical composition analysis. Citri Sarcodactylis Fructus has the activities of relieving cough， reducing phlegm， relieving asthma， anti-inflammation， anti-bacteria and anti-oxidation， etc. After processing， its volatile and non-volatile components， and pharmacological effects all have a certain change. However， the current research on processing of Citri Sarcodactylis Fructus is not in-depth enough. It is necessary to further analyze the material basis of steaming to reduce dryness， explore its dryness medicinal substances and dryness-effect quantitative correlation， so as to clarify its processing mechanism， and provide basis for the subsequent processing research， resource development and comprehensive application of Citri Sarcodactylis Fructus in the future.

New threats posed by the emerging circulating variants of SARS-CoV-2 highlight the need to find conserved neutralizing epitopes for therapeutic antibodies and efficient vaccine design. Here, we identified a receptor-binding domain (RBD)-binding antibody, XG014, which potently neutralizes β-coronavirus lineage B (β-CoV-B), including SARS-CoV-2, its circulating variants, SARS-CoV and bat SARSr-CoV WIV1. Interestingly, antibody family members competing with XG014 binding show reduced levels of cross-reactivity and induce antibody-dependent SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein-mediated cell-cell fusion, suggesting a unique mode of recognition by XG014. Structural analyses reveal that XG014 recognizes a conserved epitope outside the ACE2 binding site and completely locks RBD in the non-functional "down" conformation, while its family member XG005 directly competes with ACE2 binding and position the RBD "up". Single administration of XG014 is effective in protection against and therapy of SARS-CoV-2 infection in vivo. Our findings suggest the potential to develop XG014 as pan-β-CoV-B therapeutics and the importance of the XG014 conserved antigenic epitope for designing broadly protective vaccines against β-CoV-B and newly emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern.

PET serves as one of the most advanced imaging modalities,and its development depends on the improvement of radiotracers.Among numerous positron isotopes,18 F appears to be the best radionuclide candidate for PET radiotracers by virtue of its favorable physical characteristics.18 F-labeled aromatic radiotracers have been widely investigated by researchers due to its special metabolic stability.However, the development and application of 18 F-labeled aromatic radiotracers have been limited due to lacking of radiochemical methods to obtain products with high selectivity,high radioactivity and high purity.This review focuses on the new labeling methods of 18 F-labeled aromatic radiotracers from the aspects of electrophilic and nucleophilic substitution reactions.

OBJECTIVE： To investigate pharmaceutical care of cancer pain therapy in medical institutions from Beijing area， and to provide reference for improving the quality of pharmaceutical care for cancer pain in medical institutions and formulating cancer pain therapy decision by public health administration departments at different levels. METHODS： Inspection results of standardized diagnosis and treatment for cancer pain were analyzed retrospectively in Beijing Pain Therapy Quality Control and Improvement Center during Feb.-Mar. 2018. Scoring results of pharmaceutical care （20 points） and its 5 sub-items （personnel participation， drug supply， drug management， outpatient prescription comment and inpatient prescription comment， 4 points each item） were analyzed statistically and classified according to hospital level and pharmaceutical care inspection results. RESULTS： A total of 64 hospitals in Beijing participated in the inspection， including 27 tertiary A hospitals （42.19％）， 21 tertiary B hospitals （32.81％）， 16 secondary hospitals or first-level hospitals （25.00％）. Pharmaceutical care in all hospitals met the inspection requirements with qualified rate of 100％. 52 hospitals performed excellently （81.25％）， and 12 hospitals were qualified for pharmaceutical care （18.75％）. Among 5 sub-items of personnel participation， drug supply， drug management， outpatient prescription comment and inpatient prescription comment， the average score of drug supply item was the highest （3.83±0.05）； the lowest was the personnel participation item （2.93±0.13）. The results of pharmaceutical care inspection in tertiary A hospitals （17.80±0.28） and tertiary B hospitals （17.78±0.30） were significantly better than those in secondary hospitals or first-level hospitals（16.16±0.50）（P＜0.01 or P＜0.05）； there was statistical significance only in the score of outpatient prescription comment among 5 sub-items（P＝0.026）. Total scores of the hospitals with excellent pharmaceutical care were significantly higher than those of the hospitals with qualified pharmaceutical care in terms of personnel participation， outpatient prescription comment and inpatient prescription comment （P＜0.01 or P＜0.05）. There was significant difference in the inspection results of pharmaceutical care among the excellent group， the qualified group and the unqualified group classified by the results of personnel participation item （P＜0.01 or P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS： The quality of pharmaceutical care for cancer pain therapy in medical institutions from Beijing area has reached the qualified level， but the participation of clinical pharmacists in cancer pain therapy and outpatient prescription comment still need improvement in further. The training of clinical pharmacists and information construction of narcotic drug management should be strengthened so as to improve the overall quality of pharmaceutical care for cancer pain.
