This article systematically reviews the characteristics and trends of the writing, editing, publication and promotion of physiology textbooks in China from the late 19th century to the present, focusing on the introduction, development and innovation of Chinese physiology textbooks. The development of physiology textbooks in China is divided into four main stages: the introduction and initial development of physiology textbooks from the late 19th century to 1925; the localization and diversification of textbooks from 1926 to 1949, after the establishment of the Chinese Physiological Society; the exploratory phase of textbook construction after the founding of the People's Republic of China from 1949 to 1976; the formation and innovation of the textbook development process from 1977 to the present, following the restoration of the college entrance examination. For each phase, the article not only records the historical development of physiology textbooks, but also analyzes the evolution of their content, writing styles and the interaction with the social and political contexts. The article summarizes the characteristics and experiences of all these four phases. Special attention is given to the comprehensive statistical analysis of physiology textbooks published since the restoration of the college entrance examination and Economic Reform and Opening-up in 1977, revealing the changes in the number, publication trends and academic features of textbooks during this period. Finally, the article presets the future development of physiology textbooks in China, proposing that textbook writing should integrate aspects such as ideological and political education, medical humanities, basic and clinical medicine, health education, scientific research and international exchange and collaboration. The article also advocates for the application of new technologies and methods, such as artificial intelligence, virtual teaching models and knowledge graphs, to support "personalized learning". This research provides a systematic reference for the study of the history of medical education and offers theoretical support for the future innovation of physiology textbook in China.

Objective:To analyze the effect of recombinant human thrombopoietin(rhTPO)on platelet(PLT)reconstitution after autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation(APBSCT)in patients with multiple myeloma(MM).Methods:The clinical data of 147 MM patients who were diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and received APBSCT as the first-line therapy were retrospectively analyzed.According to whether rhTPO was used during APBSCT,the patients were divided into rhTPO group(80 cases)and control group(67 cases).The time of PLT engraftment,blood product infusion requirements,the proportion of patients with PLT recovery to ≥ 50 × 109/L and ≥ 100 × 109/L at+14 days and+100 days after transplantation,and adverse reactions including the incidence of bleeding were compared between the two groups.Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in sex,age,M protein type,PLT count at the initial diagnosis,median duration of induction therapy before APBSCT,and number of CD34+cells reinfused(all P＞0.05).The median time of PLT engraftment in the rhTPO group was 10(6-14)days,which was shorter than 11(8-23)days in the control group(P＜0.001).The median PLT transfusion requirement in the rhTPO group during APBSCT was 15(0-50)U,which was less than 20(0-80)U in the control group(P=0.001).At+14 days after transplantation,the proportions of patients with PLT 2 50 × 109/L in the rhTPO group and the control group were 66.3％and 52.2％,while the proportions of patients with PLT ≥ 100 × 109/L were 23.8％and 11.9％,respectively,with no significant differences(all P＞0.05).At+100 days after transplantation,the proportion of patients with PLT ≥ 50 × 109/L in rhTPO group and control group was 96.3％and 89.6％,respectively(P＞0.05),but the proportion of patients with PLT ≥ 100 × 109/L in rhTPO group was higher than that in control group(75.0％vs 55.2％,P=0.012).There was no difference in the overall incidence of bleeding events in different locations during period of low PLT level of patients between the two groups.In rhTPO group,the rhTPO administration was well tolerated,and the incidences of abnormal liver and kidney function and infection were similar to those in the control group.Conclusion:When MM patients undergo first-line APBSCT,subcutaneous injection of rhTPO can shorten the time of platelet engraftment,reduce the transfusion volume of blood products,and be well tolerated,moreover,more patients have achieve a high level of PLT recovery after transplantation,which is very important for ensuring the safety of APBSCT and maintenance therapy.

Objective:To explore the prenatal and postnatal features and genetic characteristics of patients with Lymphedema-Distichiasis syndrome (LDS) due to variants of FOXC2 gene. Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out on the phenotypic information, fetal ultrasound image, and genetic testing of two Chinese pedigrees diagnosed at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. A literature review was also carried out by searching the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, and PubMed databases dated from January 2010 to June 2024 using keywords "Lymphedema-Distichiasis syndrome" and " FOXC2". This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (Ethic No.2021-046-01). Results:Neither family was found to harbor chromosomal aneuploidy or pathogenic CNVs larger than 100 kb. The fetuses from pedigree 1 and pedigree 2 were respectively found to be heterozygous for a c. 361C>T (p.R121C) variant and a c. 168C>A (p.Y56*) variant of the FOXC2 gene. Both variants were paternally derived. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the variants were classified as pathogenic and likely pathogenic, respectively. Literature search has identified 20 articles, and combined with our cases, a total of 117 patients were identified. Among them, 13 had shown prenatal phenotypes, primarily with increased nuchal translucency (NT) (12/13), urinary abnormalities (5/12), and fetal edema (4/13). Postnatal phenotypes were observed in 110 cases, mainly as distichiasis (87/110) and lymphedema (73/110). Only 6 cases had both prenatal and postnatal phenotypes. A total of 32 genetic variants were identified. Conclusion:The primary prenatal manifestations of LDS include increased NT, fetal edema, pleural and abdominal effusion, and separation of renal collecting system. Postnatal phenotypes are primarily characterized by lymphedema, distichiasis, and spinal extradural arachnoid cysts. Discovery of the c. 168C>A variant has expanded the spectrum of FOXC2 gene mutations in China.

Major depressive disorder(MDD)is a prevalent con-dition associated with substantial impairment and low remission rates.Traditional antidepressants demonstrate delayed effects,low cure rate,and inadequate therapeutic effectiveness for man-aging treatment-resistant depression(TRD).Several studies have shown that ketamine,a non-selective N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor(NMDAR)antagonist,can produce rapid and sustained antidepressant effects.Ketamine has demonstrated efficacy for reducing suicidality in TRD patients.However,the pharmaco-logical mechanism for ketamine's antidepressant effects remains incompletely understood.Previous research suggests that the an-tidepressant effects of ketamine may involve the monoaminergic,glutamatergic and dopaminergic systems.This paper provides an overview of the pharmacological mechanism for ketamine's anti-depressant effects and discuss the potential directions for future research.

Glutamate,norepinephrine,and their receptors com-prise the glutamatergic and norepinephrine systems,which mu-tually affect each other and play essential roles in mediating vari-ous neuropsychiatric diseases.This paper reviews the functions of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor(NMDA-R)and α2-adrenergic receptor(α2-AR)and their functional crosstalk at the molecular level in brain in common neuropsychiatric diseases,which would benefit our understanding of neuropathophysiology of psychiatric diseases,drug development and optimization of clinical neuro-psychopharmacology.

Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) has been treating diseases for thousands of years and still holds an irreplaceable position in modern disease treatment. The composition of TCM is complex, and its mode of action features multi-pathway and multi-target characteristics, making its pharmacological actions and mechanisms complicated. The principles and mechanisms of TCM have always been a hot topic among scholars from various fields. Increasingly, studies show that indirect action plays an important role in the mode of action of TCM. The gut microbiota is regarded as a new invisible metabolic organ, and TCM can treat diseases by targeting the gut microbiota, thereby exerting an indirect effect across organs based on the connection between organs. Therefore, this paper summarized the indirect regulatory mechanisms of TCM based on the visceral manifestation theory and the organ axis of modern medical research. It also discussed the talks and communication mechanisms between the gut microbiota and target organs such as the liver, brain, kidney, and lungs, providing references for research on the mechanisms of indirect action of TCM and the development of innovative drugs.
