Objective:To analyze the changing trends and international differences in the incidence and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP) in China from 1990 to 2021 based on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database.Methods:The data were derived from the GBD database, covering the incidence and DALY data of HDP in countries or regions around the world. Descriptive statistics were used to compare the differences in disease burden between China and different regions of Europe, America and other developed countries, and to analyze the disease burden characteristics of women of childbearing age in different age groups (every 5 years). The Joinpoint regression model was used to identify trend change points. The age-period-cohort model was used to analyze the independent effects of age, period and birth cohort.Results:(1) From 1990 to 2021, the incidence of HDP in China showed an overall downward trend, from 387.18/100 000 in 1990 to 216.35/100 000 in 2021. Compared with the global incidence rate (1990: 1 167.28/100 000; 2021: 923.48/100 000), the incidence rate of HDP in China was relatively low, but it was still higher than that in some developed countries. (2) The analysis of the Joinpoint regression model showed that the incidence rate of HDP in different age groups first decreased, then increased, and finally leveled off. The connection point with the lowest point was in 2005. DALY showed a continuous downward trend in all age groups. Among them, the decline in maternal DALY of pregnant women in all age groups from 15 to 39 years old was more obvious. (3) The age-period-cohort effect model showed that the incidence rate and DALY of HDP in women of childbearing age aged 20 to 24 years reached their peak.Conclusions:The burden of HDP in China continues to decrease, and the disease prevention and control has achieved remarkable results, but the incidence rate is still higher than that in some developed countries. It is suggested that personalized interventions should be developed for different risk groups to further reduce the burden of disease.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) ranks the first among malignant tumors in China and even in the whole world. In recent years, the developement of genetic testing technology, particularly tumor gene sequencing, has provided a solid basis for the clinical molecular diagnosis of NSCLC, which has greatly increased the chances of patients benefiting from targeted therapy or immunotherapy, and ultimately extending their survival. Standardizing the use of tumor gene sequencing is crucial for the precision medicine in NSCLC. This paper discusses the normalization of tumor gene sequencing technology in the clinical molecular diagnostic pathway of NSCLC, which may promote the standardized use of tumor gene sequencing technology in targeted therapy or immunotherapy drug selection, toxicity and side effect prediction, efficacy monitoring, recurrence and prognosis evaluation of NSCLC patients. This article discusses the standardization of the application of tumor gene sequencing technology in the clinical molecular diagnosis pathway of NSCLC. Additionally, it offers a foundation for the uniform use of tumor gene sequencing technology in other solid tumors.

Objective: To examine the clinical value of routine contrast esophagram (RCE) for the diagnosis of anastomotic leakage (AL) after three-incision esophagectomy with cervical anastomosis. Methods: Clinical data of 1 022 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent McKeown three-incision esophagectomy with cervical anastomosis from January 2015 to December 2019 at Department of Minimally Invasive Esophageal Surgery, Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital and Institute were analyzed retrospectively. There were 876 males and 146 females, aging(M(IQR)) 48(16) years (range: 36 to 84 years). There were 253 patients (24.8%) with neoadjuvant therapy, and 817 patients (79.9%) with minimally invasive esophagectomy. According to the diagnosis and treatment habits of the attending surgeons, 333 patients were included in the RCE group, and RCE was performed on the 7^th day postoperative, while 689 patients were included in the non-RCE group, and RCE was performed when the patients had suspicious symptoms. Taking clinical symptoms, RCE, CT, endoscopy and other methods as reference to the diagnosis of AL, the sensitivity and specificity were used to analyze and evaluate the efficacy of RCE for the diagnosis of AL. The data were compared by U test or χ² test between groups. Results: The incidence rate of AL after three-incision esophagectomy was 7.34% (75/1 022), including 30 cases in the RCE group and 45 cases in the non-RCE group (9.0%(30/333) vs. 6.5%(45/689), χ²=2.027, P=0.155). The diagnostic time of AL was 9(5) days postoperative (range: 4 to 30 days). Among them, 23 cases showed cervical leakages, 50 cases showed intro-thoracic leakages, and 2 cases both cervical and intro-thoracic leakages. The diagnostic time of patients with intro-thoracic leakages was longer than that of cervical leakages (10(4) days vs. 6(3) days, Z=-2.517, P=0.012). Among the 333 patients in the RCE group, 16 cases of RCE indicated leakages including 11 cases of true positive and 5 cases determined to be false positive, while 317 cases indicated no abnormalities including 19 cases developed leakages. The sensitivity and specificity of RCE to detect AL were 36.7%(11/30) and 98.3%(298/333), respectively. The Youden-index was 0.35, and the diagnostic accuracy was 92.8%(309/333). The positive and negative predictive value were 11/16 and 94.0%(298/317), respectively. Conclusions: Routine contrast esophagram after three-incision esophagectomy with cervical anastomosis has low sensitivity and high specificity in the diagnosis of AL. The diagnostic time of AL is the 9^th day after surgery. It is necessary to prolong the observation time clinically, and combine RCE with CT, endoscopy and other inspection methods for diagnosis.

Objective:A high performance liquid chromatography-photo-diode array（HPLC-PDA） method for the simultaneous determination of the 7 phenolic acids including danshensu，protocatechuic acid，protocatechuic aldehyde，chlorogenic acid，caffeic acid，ferulic acid and rosemary acid in Lycopus lucidus var.hirtus rhizome，analyzing and evaluating the phenolic acids in L.lucidus var.hirtus rhizome collected from different habitats，is reported here. Method:The sample was extracted by ultrasonic with 80% methanol solution，7 kinds of phenolic acids were separated on a CAPCELL PAK C₁₈ column （4.6 mm×250 mm，5 μm） with a mobile phase consisting of methanol-0.02% formic acid aqueous （pH 3.10）by gradient elution，The detection wavelength was at 279，324 nm， the column temperature was 30 ℃ with 20 μL injection volume and the flow rate was 1.0 mL·min^-1. Result:The 7 Phenolic acids had a good linear relationship （r≥0.999 9） within their respective mass concentration ranges，the average recovery was 96.49%-103.45% and the RSD was 0.5%-2.8%，the limit of determination was 0.008-0.046 mg·L^-1 and the limit of quantification was 0.027-0.154 mg·L^-1.The 7 kinds of phenolic acids were all detected in L.lucidus var.hirtus rhizome and the total amount was between 5 811.01 and 11 747.23 µg·g^-1 ， the average amount was 7 421.05 µg·g^-1.The content of 7 phenolic acids was different and the rosemary acid was the highest in all the samples with an average of 7 111.19 µg·g^-1 the ratio to the total phenolic acids was 95.8%.The results of principal component analysis and cluster analysis showed that the quality of L.lucidus var.hirtus rhizome from Heze city in Shandong province was better，followed by Wanzhou district in Chongqing. Conclusion:The method was simple，sensitive，accurate，practical and reliable，and is suitable for the content determination of phenolic acid in L. lucidus var. hirtus rhizome.It is expected to provide a reference for the improvement of quality standard and a new idea for the development and utilization of L.lucidus var.hirtus rhizome.
