Two novel skeleton sesquiterpenoids (1 and 6), along with four new iphionane-type sesquiterpenes (2-5) and six new cyperane-type sesquiterpenes (7-11), were isolated from the whole plant of Artemisia hedinii (A. hedinii). The two novel skeleton compounds (1 and 6) were derived from the decarbonization of iphionane and cyperane-type sesquiterpenes, respectively. Their structures were elucidated through a comprehensive analysis of spectroscopic data, including high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS) and 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra. The absolute configurations were determined using electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra, single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analyses, time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) ECD calculation, density functional theory (DFT) NMR calculations, and biomimetic syntheses. The biomimetic syntheses of the two novel skeletons (1 and 6) were inspired by potential biogenetic pathways, utilizing a predominant eudesmane-type sesquiterpene (A) in A. hedinii as the substrate. All compounds were evaluated in LX-2 cells for their anti-hepatic fibrosis activity. Compounds 2, 8, and 10 exhibited significant activity in downregulating the expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), a protein involved in hepatic fibrosis.

Objective To investigate the effects and molecular mechanisms of ginsenoside Rg1(GSRG1)on the proliferation,mi-gration,and inflammatory cytokine expression of human gingival fibroblasts(HGFs)induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS).Methods HGFs were isolated and cultured using the tissue block method.The effects of different concentrations of LPS(0,1,5,10,20μg/mL)on inflammatory cytokines in HGFs were detected by ELISA.Cells were divided into three groups:control group(no treat-ment),LPS group(20 μg/mL LPS),and LPS+GSRG1 group(20 μg/mL LPS and 100 mg/L GSRG1).Cell proliferation was detec-ted by cell counting kit-8(CCK-8);cell migration was assessed by Transwell assay;intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)lev-els were compared using flow cytometry;and the expression levels of TNF-α,IL-6,NLRP3,p-p38,and p38 proteins were detected by Western blot.Results LPS concentrations of 5,10,and 20 μg/mL significantly increased the expression of IL-6 and TNF-α in HGFs(P＜0.05),with 20 μg/mL showing the strongest pro-inflammatory effect.Compared with the control group,there was no notable difference in the proliferation of HGFs in the LPS group at Day 1 and 2.However,on Day 3,4 and 5,decreased cell proliferation,re-duced migration,significantly increased ROS levels(P＜0.001),elevated protein expression of TNF-α,IL-6,and NLRP3(P＜0.001),and reduced p-p38 protein expression(P＜0.001)were exhibited.Compared with the LPS group,the LPS+GSRG1 group showed significantly enhanced cell proliferation and migration(P＜0.05),reduced ROS levels,decreased protein expression of TNF-α,IL-6,and NLRP3,and increased p-p38 protein expression(P＜0.001).There was no significant change in p38 expression among the three groups.Conclusion GSRG1 can alleviate the inhibitory effects of LPS on the proliferation and migration of HGFs and inhibit the inflammatory response,potentially through mechanisms involving p-p38 protein regulation.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective This study aims to systematically evaluate the experiences of patients with hematologic neoplasm undergoing chimeric antigen receptor T-cell(CAR-T)therapy and nursing care,and to provide a reference basis for healthcare providers to develop personalized intervention strategies.Methods PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,CINAHL,Cochrane Library,PsycINFO,Scopus,Australia Joanna Briggs Institute(JBI)EBP Database,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang Data,VIP Database,and China Biology Medicine(CBM)Database were systematically searched for qualitative studies on the experiences of patients with hematologic neoplasm undergoing CAR-T therapy and nursing care.The search period extended up to September 2023.The quality of the literature was reviewed according to the JBI Qualitative Assessment and Review Instrument,and a pooled analysis was applied to integrate the results.Results A total of 15 studies were included,generating 76 findings,which were then organized into 8 categories,resulting in 3 integrated findings.(1)Patients experienced conflicting emotions,with expectations often at odds with reality,leading to emotional fluctuations:expectations about treatment were entangled with concerns about risks;emotions fluctuated with expectations and actual experiences.(2)Patients experienced physical and social functional impairments,but as the disease eased,normal functioning recovered:rapid decline and improvement in physical functions;loss and recovery of social functions.(3)Patients desired access to professional guidance and psychosocial support.Conclusion Patients undergoing CAR-T therapy often contend with emotional conflicts.Changes in physical and social functions after the completion of treatment result in needs for seeking comprehensive medical and nursing support.It is recommended that healthcare providers conduct dynamic assessments and interventions regarding patients'emotional states before treatment,focus on early identification and management of adverse reactions after treatment,and offer continuous nursing services after discharge to enhance patients'confidence in participating in CAR-T therapy and improve their overall quality of life.

Objective To evaluate the myocardial microcirculation function of patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI)after treatment with myocardial contrast-enhanced ultrasound combined with albumin(ALB)and lipoprotein a[Lp(a)].Methods Ninety-six patients with AMI admitted to our hospital from January 2022 to September 2023 were selected.According to myocardial microcirculation function after treatment,they were divided into a normal function group(56 cases)and a dysfunction group(40 cases).major cardiovascular adverse events were compared between the two groups.major cardiovascular adverse events(MACE),the plateau peak intensity of myocardial contrast ultrasound parameters(A value),the rise rate of microbubble reperfusion(β value),myocardial blood flow(A value×β value),and serum ALB and Lp(a)levels after 48h of treatment were different,so as to determine the evaluation value of myocardial contrast ultrasound,ALB and Lp(a)on myocardial microcirculation function in AMI patients after treatment.Results In the dysfunction group,the parameters A,β,A×β,and serum ALB level,Lp(a)was higher than that in the normal function group(P＜0.05).A,β,A×β,ALB were positively correlated with cardiac function,and Lp(a)was negatively correlated with cardiac function(P＜0.05).CEUS combined with ALB and Lp(a)evaluated the efficacy of myocardial microcirculation in patients with AMI(P＜0.05).The incidence of MACE was higher in the functional group than in the normal functional group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Myocardial contrast-enhanced ultrasound can early evaluate the myocardial microcirculation function in patients with acute myocardial infarction after treatment,and combined with serum ALB and Lp(a),it can improve diagnostic efficacy.
