ObjectiveTo identify the pathogen species responsible for the wilt disease of Tetradium ruticarpum in Chongqing， investigate there biological characteristics， and screen effective fungicides， so as to provide a theoretical basis for disease control in production. MethodsThe pathogen was isolated via the tissue culture method. Pathogenicity was verified according to Koch's postulates. The pathogen was identified based on morphological characteristics and multi-gene phylogenetic analysis. The mycelial growth rate method was used for biological characterization of the pathogen and fungicide screening. ResultsThe pathogen colonies were nearly circular with irregular edges， white， short， velvety aerial hyphae， and pale purple undersides. Macroconidia were colorless， sickle-shaped， with 3-5 septa， while microconidia were transparent， elliptical， aseptate or with 1-2 septa. Multi-gene phylogenetic analysis showed that the pathogen clustered in the same clade as Fusarium fujikuroi with 100% support， which， combined with morphological characteristics， identified the pathogen causing wilt of T. ruticarpum in Chongqing as F. fujikuroi. The optimal conditions for the mycelial growth of F. fujikuroi were mung bean agar （MBA） with glucose as the carbon source， beef extract and yeast powder as nitrogen sources， 28 ℃， pH 7.0， and alternating light/dark conditions. The optimal conditions for sporulation were potato dextrose agar （PDA） with glucose as the carbon source， beef extract as the nitrogen source， 28 ℃， pH 7.0， and complete darkness. Among chemical fungicides， phenazine-1-carboxylic acid exhibited the strongest inhibitory effect on F. fujikuroi. Shenqinmycin and tetramycin were the most effective bio-fungicides. ConclusionThis study is the first to report F. fujikuroi as the causal agent of wilt disease in T. rutaecarpa. The chemical fungicide phenazine-1-carboxylic acid and the bio-fungicides shenqinmycin and tetramycin showed strong inhibitory effects against F. fujikuroi.

Anemia is one of the common accompanying symptoms of tumors. Whether chemotherapy-related anemia （CRA） or anemia caused by the disease itself， it greatly affects patients' survival rate， quality of life， and even their confidence in treatment. Currently， Western medicine mainly treats CRA through blood product transfusion and the use of erythropoietin， which can rapidly increase hemoglobin levels but are associated with strong dependence and short duration of efficacy. Therefore， exploring the theoretical basis， treatment methods， and advantages of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in managing CRA has become a focus of current research. According to recent clinical observations and related reports， TCM demonstrates favorable clinical efficacy in the treatment of CRA. By reviewing literature on classic TCM prescriptions for CRA， this article summarizes clinical cases， relevant pharmacological studies， and possible mechanisms of action. These analyses show that classic TCM prescriptions for CRA are mainly tonifying formulas， primarily those that tonify qi and blood and strengthen the spleen and kidney， and they offer clear therapeutic efficacy， high safety， and the potential to reduce toxicity and enhance effectiveness. In addition to tonifying formulas， modern prescriptions for CRA， such as those that promote blood circulation and remove stasis， promote new blood generation， and exert detoxifying and anticancer effects， have also been confirmed by clinical research to provide good therapeutic outcomes. By summarizing and analyzing the efficacy and mechanisms of classic TCM prescriptions for CRA and the clinical research status of modern formulas， this article aims to provide new strategies for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of CRA.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the impact of yang-reinforcing and blood-activating therapy on the long-term prognosis for patients with dilated cardiomyopathy （DCM） of yang deficiency and blood stasis syndrome. MethodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted involving 371 DCM patients with yang deficiency and blood stasis syndrome. The yang-reinforcing and blood-activating therapy was defined as the exposure factor. Patients were categorized into exposure group （186 cases） and non-exposure group （185 cases） according to whether they received yang-reinforcing and blood-activating therapy combined with conventional western medicine for 6 months or longer. The follow-up period was set at 48 months， and the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to assess the cumulative incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events （MACE） in both groups. Cox regression analysis was used to explore the impact of yang-reinforcing and blood-activating therapy on the risk of MACE， and subgroup analysis was performed. Changes in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome score， left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF）， left ventricular fractional shortening （LVFS）， left ventricular end-diastolic diameter （LVEDD）， and Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire （MLHFQ） score were compared between groups at the time of first combined use of yang-reinforcing and blood-activating therapy （before treatment） and 1 year after receiving the therapy （after treatment）. ResultsMACE occurred in 31 cases （16.67%） in the exposure group and 47 cases （25.41%） in the non-exposure group. The cumulative incidence of MACE in the exposure group was significantly lower than that in the non-exposure group ［HR=0.559， 95%CI（0.361，0.895）， P=0.014］. Cox regression analysis showed that yang-reinforcing and blood-activating therapy was an independent factor for reducing the risk of MACE in DCM patients ［HR=0.623， 95%CI（0.396，0.980）， P=0.041］， and consistent results were observed in different subgroups. Compared with pre-treatment， the exposure group showed decreased TCM syndrome score and MLHFQ score， reduced LVEDD， and increased LVEF and LVFS after treatment （P＜0.05）； in the non-exposure group， TCM syndrome score decreased， LVEF and LVFS increased， and LVEDD reduced after treatment （P＜0.05）. After treatment， the exposure group had higher LVEF and LVFS， smaller LVEDD， and lower TCM syndrome score and MLHFQ score compared with the non-exposure group （P＜0.05）. ConclusionCombining yang-reinforcing and blood-activating therapy with conventional western medicine can reduce the risk of MACE in DCM patients with yang deficiency and blood stasis syndrome， meanwhile improving their clinical symptoms， cardiac function， and quality of life.

Objective To explore the feasibility and reference value of allogeneic lung transplantation and postoperative monitoring in miniature pigs for lung transplantation research. Methods Two miniature pigs (R1 and R2) underwent left lung allogeneic transplantation. Complement-dependent cytotoxicity tests and blood cross-matching were performed before surgery. The main operative times and partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO₂) after opening the pulmonary artery were recorded during surgery. Postoperatively, routine blood tests, biochemical blood indicators and inflammatory factors were detected, and pathological examinations of multiple organs were conducted. Results The complement-dependent cytotoxicity test showed that the survival rate of lymphocytes between donors and recipients was 42.5%-47.3%, and no agglutination reaction occurred in the cross-matching. The first warm ischemia times of D1 and D2 were 17 min and 10 min, respectively, and the cold ischemia times were 246 min and 216 min, respectively. Ultimately, R1 and R2 survived for 1.5 h and 104 h, respectively. Postoperatively, in R1, albumin (ALB) and globulin (GLB) decreased, and alanine aminotransferase increased; in R2, ALB, GLB and aspartate aminotransferase all increased. Urea nitrogen and serum creatinine increased in both recipients. Pathological results showed that in R1, the transplanted lung had partial consolidation with inflammatory cell infiltration, and multiple organs were congested and damaged. In R2, the transplanted lung had severe necrosis with fibrosis, and multiple organs had mild to moderate damage. The expression levels of interleukin-1β and interleukin-6 increased in the transplanted lungs. Conclusions The allogeneic lung transplantation model in miniature pigs may systematically evaluate immunological compatibility, intraoperative function and postoperative organ damage. The data obtained may provide technical references for subsequent lung transplantation research.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of quercetin （QUE） on intervertebral disc degeneration in rats with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation （LDH） and explore its mechanism based on the forkhead box protein O3/silent information regulator 1 （FOXO3/Sirt1） pathway. METHODS A rat model of LDH was established. The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into LDH group （gavaged with and intraperitoneally injected with an equal volume of normal saline）， QUE-L group （gavaged with 50 mg/kg QUE+intraperitoneally injected with an equal volume of normal saline）， QUE-H group （gavaged with 100 mg/kg QUE+ intraperitoneally injected with an equal volume of normal saline）， and QUE-H+EX-527 （a Sirt1 inhibitor） group （gavaged with 100 mg/kg QUE+intraperitoneally injected with 1 mg/kg EX-527）， with 12 rats in each group. Additionally， 12 healthy normal rats were selected as the control group （gavaged with and intraperitoneally injected with an equal volume of normal saline）. All rats were administered the corresponding agents once daily for consecutive 8 weeks. After the final administration， the pain threshold and serum levels of inflammatory factors in rats were measured； pathological damage of lumbar intervertebral disc tissue was observed， the apoptosis of nucleus pulposus cells in lumbar intervertebral disc tissue was assessed， and the expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase-3 （MMP-3）， phospholipase A2 （PLA2）， as well as apoptosis-related proteins and FOXO3/Sirt1 pathway- related proteins in intervertebral disc tissue were determined. RESULTS Compared with LDH group， pathological damage of intervertebral disc tissue were improved significantly in QUE-L group and QUE-H group； paw withdrawal mechanical threshold， paw withdrawal thermal latency， the serum levels of transforming growth factor-β1 and interleukin-10 （IL-10） as well as the expression levels of B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2）， FOXO3 and Sirt1 were significantly increased or prolonged （P＜0.05）. Serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and IL-1β， histopathological score of intervertebral disc tissue， apoptotic rate of nucleus pulposus cells， positive expressions of MMP-3 and PLA2 in intervertebral disc tissue and expression levels of Bcl-2 associated X protein were significantly decreased （P＜0.05）. Compared with the QUE-H group， the QUE-H+EX-527 group presented aggravated pathological damage of intervertebral disc tissue， and the trends of all the above indicators were significantly reversed（P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS QUE can ameliorate intervertebral disc degeneration in LDH rats， and its mechanism may be related to the activation of the FOXO3/Sirt1 pathway.

ObjectiveTo develop an intervention program based on a shared mental model to enhance the communication and collaboration skills of nurses in multidisciplinary teams in stroke rehabilitation wards. MethodsUsing the shared mental model as the theoretical framework, the intervention program was preliminarily drafted through literature review to establish a theoretical foundation and qualitative research to identify clinical needs. The Delphi method was then used to revise and refine the program. ResultsBased on literature review and qualitative research, intervention elements were extracted across four dimensions: equipment, tasks, team interaction and team members, forming the initial draft of the intervention program. Two rounds of consultations were conducted with 18 experts, achieving a 100% valid response rate in both rounds. The expert authority coefficients were 0.87 and 0.90, respectively. In the second round of consultation, the variation coefficients for the importance scores of each item ranged from 0 to 0.20 (overall Kendall's W = 0.272, P < 0.001), and the variation coefficients for feasibility scores ranged from 0 to 0.21 (overall Kendall's W = 0.275, P < 0.001). The final intervention program included five first-level indicators, eight second-level indicators, and 29 third-level indicators, aligning with the four dimensions of the shared mental model. ConclusionThe intervention program was developed to enhance the communication and collaboration skills of nurses in multidisciplinary teams in stroke rehabilitation wards based on the shared mental model.

OBJECTIVE To construct an intelligent pharmaceutical Q&A platform for precision medication with low “artificial intelligence （AI） hallucination”， aiming to enhance the accuracy， consistency， and traceability of medication consultations. METHODS Medication package inserts were batch-processed and converted into structured data through Python programming to build a local pharmaceutical knowledge base. The retrieval and question-answering processes were designed based on large language models， and system integration and localized deployment were completed on Dify platform. By designing typical clinical medication questions and comparing the output of the intelligent pharmaceutical Q&A platform with the online version of DeepSeek across dimensions such as peak time retrieval， half-life， and dosage adjustment reasoning for patients with renal impairment， the accuracy and reliability of its retrieval and reasoning results were evaluated. RESULTS The intelligent pharmaceutical Q&A platform， constructed based on local drug package inserts， achieved 100% accuracy in retrieval and reasoning for peak time， half-life， and dosage adjustment schemes. In comparison， the online version of DeepSeek demonstrated accuracies of 30%（6/20）， 50%（10/20）， and 38%（23/60） across these three dimensions， respectively. CONCLUSIONS The constructed intelligent pharmaceutical Q&A platform is capable of accurately retrieving and extracting information from the local knowledge base based on clinical inquiries， thereby avoiding the occurrence of AI hallucinations and providing reliable medication decision support for healthcare professionals.

Objective: To understand the prevalence of myopia among primary and secondary school students in minority areas of Yunnan Province, and to explore the influence of outdoor activities and short-distance use of eyes, so as to provide a basis for early myopia intervention. Methods: In October 2020, the survey was conducted among 1 782 primary and secondary school students in three cities of Yunnan through a multi stage random cluster sampling method. All subjects underwent a questionnaire survey and the visual acuity examination at baseline. The first follow-up was conducted in October 2021 to obtain 1 691 valid samples, and the second follow-up was conducted in May 2023 to obtain 1 367 valid samples. Factors associated with myopia among primary and secondary school students were explored by using generalized estimating equations. Results: The prevalence rates of myopia in 2020, 2021 and 2023 were 52.64%, 61.62% and 69.35%, respectively, showing an increasing trend ( χ 2 trend =91.77, P <0.05). The results of multivariate regression analysis on the generalized estimation equations showed that age at baseline ( OR =1.31), girls ( OR =1.76), Hani ethnicity ( OR =0.75), Bai ethnicity ( OR =0.69), parental myopia ( OR =1.97-2.29), parents often reducing children s exercise time for homework or tutoring ( OR =1.35), less than 1 time or 2-3 times of ball sports per week ( OR =1.27, 1.20 ), reading and writing in the classroom during the break ( OR =1.27), reading in direct sunlight occasionally ( OR =1.20), using only desk lamp for writing at home ( OR =0.71), more than 1 hours of short-distance eye use for a break once ( OR =1.23) were associated with myopia among primary and secondary school students ( P <0.05). Conclusions Outdoor activities and short-distance use of eye among primary and middle school students in minority areas in Yunnan province are suboptimal. Enhancing the related environmental and behavioral factors can effectively mitigate the occurrence and progression of myopia.
