ObjectiveTo analyze the adverse reactions associated with the clinical use of Banxia （Rhizoma Pinelliae）- Wutou （Aconitum） in the same formula， with the aim of providing a reference for the safety of their clinical application. MethodsLiterature on the clinical application of antagonistic herbs "Banxia-Wutou" used in the same formula， published from January 1st， 2014， to June 30th， 2023， was retrieved from databases including CNKI， VIP， Wanfang， SinoMed， PubMed， Cochrane Library， and Embase. A database was established， and information related to adverse reactions was extracted， including descriptions， classifications， specific manifestations， management and outcomes， patients' primary diseases （western medicine diseases and traditional Chinese medicine diagnoses and syndromes）， and medication information （dosage， ratio， administration routes， and dosage forms）. ResultsA total of 79 researches simultaneously used antagonistic herbs Banxia-Wutou in the same formula and reported associated advers reactions. Gastrointestinal adverse reactions were the most common， with 8 studies reporting management of adverse reactions and 3 studies reporting improvement with no intervention. Among the 11 researches， the adverse reaction relieved to extant， while other 69 researches didn't report the managment of adverse reaction and its prognosis. For the primary disease in western medicine system， chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） were most common， while gastric pain was the most common symptom in traditional Chinese medicine with spleen and kidney deficiency and spleen stomach cold deficiency being the most frequent syndromes. The most common Banxia dosage was 10 g， while for the Wutou， Fuzi （Radix Aconiti Lateralis Praeparata） was predominant with the highest dose at 15 g. The most frequent herbal combination was Banxia-fuzi， with a 1∶1 ratio. The main administration route was oral， and the primary dosage form was decoction. ConclusionGastrointestinal adverse reactions are the most common in the clinical use of Banxia-Wutou antagonistic herb combinations. Research on the safety of "Banxia-Wutou" combinations should focus on respiratory system diseases and spleen-stomach related conditions.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for adverse outcomes in elderly patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrilla-tion(AF)after percutaneous left atrial appendage closure(LAAC)combined with radiofrequency ablation(RFA).Meth-ods:A total of 199 elderly AF patients who admitted in Department of Cardiology,Yuhuangding Hospital between Jan 1st,2019 and Aug 17th,2023 and underwent LAAC combined RFA were enrolled.The patients were divided into case group(n=78)and control group(n=121)according to presence of atrial arrhythmia and/or cerebral infarction(CI)within one year after operation.Baseline clinical data,laboratory indexes and color Doppler ultrasound indexes were compared be-tween the two groups,and multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for postoperative atrial ar-rhythmia and/or CI.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was constructed to analyze the predictive efficacy of risk factors for atrial arrhythmia and/or CI after operation.Results:Univariate analysis indicated that compared with pa-tients in control group,those in case group had significant higher proportions of preoperative persistent atrial fibrillation(52.60％ vs.37.20％),old myocardial infarction(OMI)(11.50％vs.1.70％)and left atrial diameter(LAD)[(45.47±6.90)mm vs.(43.34±6.64)mm](P＜0.05 or＜0.01).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated history of OMI(OR=8.736,95％CI 1.772～43.069,P=0.008)and LAD(OR=1.053,95％CI 1.006～1.102,P=0.027)were independent risk factors of adverse outcomes in elderly AF patients after LAAC+RFA.ROC analysis indicated that predic-tive efficacy of combined detection of OMI and LAD(AUC=0.663,95％CI 0.593～0.728)for adverse outcomes within 1 year in elderly AF patients after LAAC+RFA was significantly better than those of OMI(AUC=0.549,95％CI 0.477～0.620)and LAD(AUC=0.602,95％CI 0.531～0.671)alone(Z=3.045,2.312,P=0.002,0.021).Conclusion:His-tory of old myocardial infarction and left atrial diameter are independent risk factors for atrial arrhythmia and/or cerebral infarction within 1 year after percutaneous left atrial appendage closure combined with radiofrequency ablation in elderly patients with atrial fibrillation,and the combination has good predictive performance.

Aim To study the protective effect of the silibinin derivative Sil-1 on acute myocardial ischemia in SD rats and its mechanism of action.Methods Af-ter 18 hours of oxygen-glucose deprivation and treat-ment of H9c2 cells,the protective effect of Sil-1 on rat cardiomyocytes was examined.SD rats were treated 30 minutes before surgery,followed by 24 h ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery.The cardiopro-tective effects of Sil-1 and its mechanisms for improving myocardial ischemic injury were investigated using pro-teomics technology.Results In vitro,compared with the control group,the activity of H9c2 cells in the mod-el group showed reduced cell viability,increased dead cells,elevated ROS and higher levels of LDH and in-flammatory cytokines TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 in the culture medium.Sil-1 could improve the above condi-tions to different degrees.In vivo,compared with the control group,rats in the model group showed signifi-cantly higher T waves on electrocardiogram,significant ischemic areas in the heart section,disorganized ar-rangement of cardiomyocytes,increased inflammatory factor infiltration and elevated CK,CK-MB,LDH and inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-1β.Besides,NF-κB phosphorylation levels in myocardial tissue in-creased.Sil-1 improved the above conditions to varying degrees.The results of proteomics showed that 90 pro-teins were found between the control vs model group and the Sil-1 vs model group,and KEGG enrichment a-nalysis showed that MAPK,chemokines,VEGF and other signaling pathways were abundant.Western blot results showed that Sil-1 blocked the phosphorylation of ERK,JNK and p38 MAPK.Conclusions Sil-1 inhib-its the MAPK pathway by blocking the phosphorylation of JNK,ERK,and p38 MAPK,and achieves a protec-tive effect on rats with acute myocardial infarction.

The engineering application of microbially induced carbonate precipitation(MICP)is limited by pH-dependent conformational dynamics of urease.Focusing on the α-subunit urease from Sporosarcina pasteurii,this study integrated conductivity experiments and constant-pH molecular dynamics simulations to analyze active site conformational dynamics and catalytic function across pH 3-11.Results showed that under neutral conditions(pH 7-8),key histidine residues(HIS139/HIS249)exhibited minimal dis-placement(＜0.5 ?),the longest hydrogen bond lifetime(＞8 ps),highest conformational stability(root mean square deviation,RMSD:0.15-0.18 nm),and optimal catalytic activity(conductivity change rate:0.03 mS/cm·min-1,CaCO3 precipitation:3.84 g).Extreme pH(pH 3/11)induced structural collapse(displacement up to 1.8 ?)and complete activity loss.Simulations revealed that neutral pH sta-bilizes a protonation-dependent cooperative allosteric network by maintaining active site cavity volume(～120 ?3)and moderate conformational coherence(correlation coefficient～0.8).This work deciphers the molecular mechanism of pH-regulated urease dynamics through protonation states,providing theoreti-cal support for MICP applications in acidic mine tailing remediation and alkaline soil stabilization.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness of the 5A (Ask, Assess, Advise, Assist, Arrange follow-up) management model based on personalized health education records in community patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who were enrolled with family doctors in Yuxin Community, Haidian District, Beijing, from January 2022 to May 2023. Using a random number table method, the patients were divided into an observation group ( n=68) and a control group ( n=68). The control group received routine community management, while the observation group received management based on the 5A model and personalized health education records. Differences in metabolic indicators, including glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, body mass index (BMI), and waist circumference, as well as self-management behaviors were compared between the two groups at 3, 6, and 12 months of intervention. Results:During the entire intervention period, four cases were lost in the observation group and eight cases were lost in the control group. Finally, data from 124 patients were included in the analysis, including 64 cases in the observation group and 60 cases in the control group. Repeated measures analysis of variance showed interaction effects between time points and groups for HbA1c, BMI, waist circumference, and self-management behavior scores among patients with diabetes, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The 5A management model based on personalized health education records has a positive impact on improving metabolic indicators and self-management behaviors in community patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

In recent years, potato scab caused by pathogenic Streptomyces spp. has become widespread globally, with increasing damage severely compromising the commercial value and storability of tubers. The pathogens are transmitted through the soil and seeds of potato, while existing control technologies have demonstrated limited efficacy in preventing the colonization and spread of pathogens, which pose a critical bottleneck in the sustainable development of the potato industry. This study systematically examines the pathogen characteristics and pathogenic mechanisms, evaluates the impacts of soil nutrients and microbial community structure on disease severity, and analyzes limitations in current chemical control, biological control, and disease-resistant variety breeding approaches. We propose an integrated control strategy of disease-resistant varieties, phosphorus fertilizer reduction, fertilizer efficiency enhancement, and phosphorus-soluble antagonistic fungicides, aiming to provide novel research perspectives for achieving effective prevention and control of potato scab.

In recent years, potato scab caused by Streptomyces scabies is aggravating year by year, becoming an industrial problem urgently to be resolved. Screening antagonistic bacteria with good inhibitory effect and wide adaptability is the main measure to realize effective prevention and control of the disease. This study screened three strains of antagonistic bacteria DXT2-4, T2-1 and 21-14 with good inhibitory effect on S. scabies by using plate standoff test, and identified them as Bacillus altitudinis, Bacillus safensis and Bacillus pumilus, respectively, based on morphological characteristics, physiological and biochemical properties, and 16S rRNA gene sequences. DXT2-4, T2-1 and 21-14 showed the pot control efficacy of 68.83%, 48.57%, and 57.14%, respectively. The field control efficacy of the three strains was 59.48%, 34.58% and 51.75% in Hulun Buir, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and 55.14%, 36.05%, and 49.05% in Huizhou, Guangdong. The three strains could grow normally in the media with pH 1.0-13.0 and with 1%-11% NaCl, and they had inhibitory effects on Rhizoctonia solani, Verticillium dahliae, Alternaria solani, and Fusarium oxysporum. The indole-3-acetic acid yields of DXT2-4, T2-1, and 21-14 were 2.23, 1.11, and 1.67 mg/L, respectively. DXT2-4 and 21-14 demonstrated strong abilities to solubilize phosphorus. The optimal carbon source, nitrogen source, and inorganic salt for fermentation of strain DXT2-4 were 2% molasses+2% corn starch, 2% soybean meal, and 0.3% MgSO₄·7H₂O, respectively. These findings suggest the three strains of bacteria can efficiently inhibit the growth of S. scabies and have strong environmental adaptability. Particularly, DXT2-4 has the best effects of inhibiting the disease and promoting plant growth, showing a high development value and broad application prospects, this is of great significance for promoting sustainable potato production and ensuring the environmentally sound utilization of resources.
