As a high-quality moxibustion material, Artemisia stolonifera has high economic value and research prospects. However, due to difficulties in seed germination, its wild germplasm resources are sparsely distributed in China. This study used young stem segments grown in the current year to investigate the effects of explant sterilization, different combinations and concentrations of plant growth regulators on the proliferation and rooting of adventitious shoots, with the aim of constructing an in vitro rapid propagation technology system for A. stolonifera. The results showed that the lowest contamination rate of 25.83% was achieved when sterilizing the stem segments by rinsing with running water for 30 min, soaking in 75% ethanol for 30 s, followed by a 5 min treatment with 0.1% HgCl_2, 10 min with 8% NaClO, and 10 min with 0.6% phytosaniline. There was no browning of the stem segments, and surface sterilization of the A. stolonifera stem segments was successfully achieved. In the induction culture phase, when the concentration of kinetin(KT) was 0.05 mg·L~(-1) and 6-benzylaminopurine(6-BA) was 0.05 mg·L~(-1), the adventitious shoot proliferation coefficient was 2.02, effectively promoting the proliferation and growth of A. stolonifera. In the rooting culture phase, 0.1 mg·L~(-1) 1-naphthaleneacetic acid(NAA) effectively induced A. stolonifera test-tube seedlings to root within a short period, achieving a rooting rate of 100%. The addition of a small amount of activated charcoal also promoted rooting and strengthened seedling growth. The survival rate of A. stolonifera seedlings transplanted into a substrate consisting of 90% nutrient soil and 10% perlite was 100%. This study established an efficient in vitro rapid propagation system for A. stolonifera, overcoming difficulties with seed germination, shortening the breeding cycle, and reducing production and planting costs. It provides technical support for the introduction, domestication, seedling propagation, germplasm conservation, and industrial development of A. stolonifera.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of bone metabolic indexes for disease assessment and curative effect monitoring in multiple myeloma(MM)bone disease(MBD)patients with different blood separation results.Methods:A total of 134 newly diagnosed MM patients treated in Cangzhou Hospital of Integrated TCM-WM-Hebei were enrolled and divided into control group[119 cases,serum,colloid and red blood cell(RBC)from top to bottom of sample]and abnormal group(15 cases,serum,mixed layer of RBC and serum,colloid and RBC from top to bottom of sample)according to the results of blood separation.According to the imaging findings,MBD was classified into grade 0-4,grade 0-2 was mild,and grade 3-4 was severe.The MBD grade of patients in the two groups was analyzed.The curative effect of MBD patients after chemotherapy and the changes of blood separation results and bone metabolic indexes before and after treatment were evaluated.The correlation between β 2-microglobulin(MG)and bone metabolic indexes was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Results:In the control group,there were 69 cases of grade 0-2 and 50 cases of grade 3-4,while in the abnormal group,there were 5 cases of grade 0-2 and 10 cases of grade 3-4,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The serum β 2-MG,β-CTX levels in abnormal group were both significantly higher than those in control group,while the levels of P1NP and osteocalcin(OC)were significantly lower(all P＜0.001).In the control group,there were 95 patients with ≥ partial response(PR)and the blood separation results were not changed,while 24 patients with＜PR and 5 of them had abnormal blood separation results.In the abnormal group,9 patients with efficacy≥PR showed normal blood separation results,while 6 patients with efficacy＜PR and 5 of them still remained abnormal blood separation results.Compared with before treatment,β-CTX and β 2-MG of patients with efficacy ≥ PR were significantly decreased but P1NP and OC increased in the control group(all P＜0.00 1),which was the same as abnoraml group(both P＜0.001,P＜0.01).There were no significant changes in the levels of all indexes in the two groups of patients with efficacy＜PR(P＞0.05).Compared with before treatment,the levels of β-CTX and β 2-MG in the control group with unchanged blood separation results were significantly decreased(both P＜0.00l),while the levels of P1NP and OC were significantly increased(P＜0.01,P＜0.001),and the level of each index in the patients transformed to abnormal blood separation result after treatment did not significantly change(P＞0.05);the levels of β-CTX and β 2-MG in the abnormal group transformed to normal blood separation result were significantly decreased(both P＜0.01),while the levels of P1NP and OC were significantly increased(P＜0.001,P＜0.01),and the level of each index in patients with unchanged blood separation results did not significantly change(P＞0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that serumβ 2-MG was positively correlated with β-CTX(r=0.709,P＜0.001),and negatively correlated with P1NP and OC(r=-0.410,r=-0.412,both P＜0.001).Conclusion:MBD patients with abnormal blood separation results have higher bone disease grade and poor prognosis,which is closely related to the significant increase of bone resorption index β-CTX level and decrease of bone formation index P1NP and OC levels,leading to more serious bone metabolic homeostasis disorder.The results of blood separation combined with the changes of bone metabolic indexes can be used as one of the comprehensive predictors of disease condition,efficacy monitoring and prognosis evaluation of MBD patients.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Allergic diseases affect about 40% of the world's population. Environmental factors are important in the occurrence and development of allergic diseases. Dust mites are one of the most important allergens in the indoor environment. The World Health Organization proposes the "four-in-one, combination of prevention and treatment" treatment principle for allergic diseases, in which environmental control to avoid or reduce allergens is the first choice for treatment. Modern people spend much more time at home (including sleeping) than outdoors, and the control of the home environment is particularly critical. This practice introduces the hypoallergenic home visit program, which including home environment assessment, environmental and behavioral intervention guidance, and common household hypoallergenic supplies and service guidance for the patient's home environment. The real-time semi-quantitative testing of dust mite allergens, qualitative assessments of other indoor allergens, record of patients' household items and lifestyle, and precise, individualized patient prevention and control education will be conducted. The hypoallergenic home visit program improves the doctors' diagnosis and treatment data dimension, and becomes a patient management tool for doctors outside the hospital. It also helps patients continue to scientifically avoid allergens and irritants in the environment, effectively build a hypoallergenic home environment, reduce exposure to allergens in the home environment, and achieve the goal of combining the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases.

As a recognized rare and highly fatal disease, hereditary angioedema (HAE) is difficult to diagnose and characterized by recurrent edema involving the head, limbs, genitals and larynx, etc. Diagnosis of HAE is not difficult. However, low incidence and lack of clinical characteristics lead to difficulty of doctors on timely diagnosis and correct intervention for HAE patients. Therefore, it is crucial to improve the awareness of this disease and prevent its recurrence. for HAE patients. In view of absent cognition of doctors and the general public on HAE, patients often suffer from sudden death or become disabled due to laryngeal edema which cannot be treated in time. Thus, based on the Internet mobile terminal platform, the team set up an all-day rapid emergency response system which is provided for HAE patients by setting up "one-click help". The aim is to offer optimization on overall management of HAE and designed the intelligent follow-up management to provide timely assistance and specialized suggestion for patients with acute attacks.
