OBJECTIVE To explore the improvement effect and mechanism of salidroside on radiation-induced parotid gland injury in rats. METHODS Rats were randomly assigned into normal group， radiation group， salidroside low-dose （salidroside-L， 50 mg/kg） group， salidroside high-dose （salidroside-H， 100 mg/kg） group， and salidroside-H+inhibitor （100 mg/kg salidroside+0.1 µmol/kg H-89） group， with 10 rats in each group. Except for the normal group， rats in the other groups were subjected to radiation exposure to establish a model of radiation-induced parotid gland injury. Rats in each group were intraperitoneally injected with the corresponding drug or normal saline， once a day， for 40 consecutive days. After the last administration， the levels of reactive oxygen species （ROS）， cyclic adenosine monophosphate （cAMP）， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， and amylase in serum were detected； the pathological changes of parotid gland tissue were observed； the apoptosis rate of parotid gland tissue cells， the expression levels of B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2） and its associated X protein （Bax）， mRNA expression levels of interleukin-6 （IL- 6） and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， the protein expression levels of type Ⅲ collagen （Col Ⅲ）， vasoactive intestinal peptide （VIP）， and the phosphorylation level of protein kinase A （PKA） in parotid gland tissue were determined. RESULTS Compared with normal group， the levels of ROS， amylase， apoptosis rate， Bax expression level， mRNA expression levels of IL-6 and TNF- α， and protein expression level of Col Ⅲ in the radiation group were significantly increased， while the levels of cAMP， SOD， Bcl-2 expression level， VIP protein expression level and PKA phosphorylation level were significantly decreased （P＜0.05）. Compared with radiation group， the above indicators in the salidroside-L group and salidroside-H group were significantly improved （P＜0.05）， and the improvement in the salidroside-H group was more significant （P＜0.05）； inhibitor H-89 significantly reversed the changes in the above indicators of the salidroside-H group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Salidroside can effectively alleviate radiation-induced parotid gland injury in rats， and its mechanism may be related to the activation of the VIP-cAMP pathway.

Objective To explore the application value of simultaneous multi-slice(SMS)technique in diffusion tensor imaging(DTI)for evaluating brain glioma.Methods Thirty-four brain glioma patients were prospectively enrolled,and brain conventional DTI and SMS-DTI were acquired.The subjective scores of image quality,signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)were compared between SMS-DTI and conventional DTI,so were the numbers of whole brain fiber bundles,tumor relative fractional anisotropy(rFA)and relative mean diffusivity(rMD)obtained based on SMS-DTI and conventional DTI.Results Among 34 patients,there were 23 cases of high-grade glioma and 11 cases of low-grade glioma.No significant difference of subjective scores of image quality,tumor edge clarity nor magnetic susceptibility artifacts was found between SMS-DTI and conventional DTI(all P＞0.05).SNR and CNR on SMS-DTI were both lower than those on conventional DTI(both P＜0.05).No significant difference of the numbers of whole brain fiber bundles,rFA nor rMD of gliomas with different pathological grades was detected based on SMS-DTI compared with those on conventional DTI(all P＞0.05).Conclusion SMS applicated in DTI for evaluating brain gliomas was able to shorten acquisition time under the condition of ensuring image quality and quantitative analysis accuracy.

More than 300 million people worldwide suffer from asthma, and the incidence is increasing year by year. As one of the most common chronic diseases, asthma is an immune-mediated inflammatory disease with complex triggering mechanisms and strong heterogeneity. With the in-depth study of physiological and pathological mechanisms, therapeutic small molecule and hormone drugs have been introduced to control and treat most patients, but about 5% - 10% of patients still suffer from various subtypes of difficult to control and treat asthma, that is, severe asthma. In the past decade, with the rapid development of bio-pharmaceutical research, protein and antibody have become the key drugs for the treatment of severe asthma with high efficacy, high specificity and high safety. However, biological drugs are usually administered by injection, they cannot be noninvasive and directly delivered into the lung to quickly absorb and take effect. Therefore, there is an urgent need for the introduction of inhaled biologics with quick effectiveness, convenience, economy and safety in clinical. The review summarizes the existing small molecule, hormone and biological therapy drugs, and summarizes the development of inhalable biological agents of asthma, and analyzes the future prospects of the inhalable biological drugs, which is designed to deepen the perception of the direction of the inhalable biological drugs research, and update the information of the field, in order to provide reference for the development of more inhalable biologics.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of compound danshen preparations combined with conventional chemical drug treatment for peptic ulcer （PU）， providing evidence-based guidance for clinical treatment of PU. METHODS Related clinical randomized controlled trials were collected from CNKI， VIP， Wangfang data， CBM， PubMed， Embase and Web of Science from their establishment date to September 30， 2023. The qualities of included literature were evaluated by Cochrane Systematically Evaluator Manual 5.1.0. Meta-analysis， sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis were conducted with RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS Totally 26 pieces of literature were included with total of 2 451 cases， including 1 243 cases in trial group （compound danshen preparations+conventional chemical drug treatment） and 1 208 cases in the control group （conventional chemical drug treatment）. In terms of effectiveness， trial group had significant advantages in ulcer healing rate [OR＝4.66， 95%CI （3.53， 6.15）， P＜0.000 01]， HP eradication rate [OR＝1.90， 95%CI （1.12， 3.22）， P＝0.02]，and pain relief rate [OR＝3.91， 95%CI （2.31， 6.61）， P＜0.000 01] than control group， while ulcer recurrence rate [OR＝0.22， 95%CI （0.15， 0.32）， P＜0.000 01] and serum levels of pepsinogen （PG）Ⅰ [SMD＝－1.92， 95%CI （－2.25， －1.58）， P＜0.000 01]， PGⅡ [SMD＝－3.88， 95%CI （－4.35， －3.41）， P＜0.000 01] and G-17 [SMD＝－3.44， 95%CI （－3.87， －3.00）， P＜0.000 01] were significantly lower than control group. In terms of safety， the main adverse reactions were abdominal discomfort， headache， dizziness， dry mouth， facial flushing， etc. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactionsbetween the two groups [OR＝1.08， 95%CI （0.75， 1.54）， P＝0.69]. Subgroup analysis of ulcer healing rate and HP eradication rate based on dosage form showed that HP eradication rate in the compound danshen pellet group was not significantly improved compared to the control group， with consistent results for the remaining outcomes. The sensitivity analysis showed that above results were stable. There was less possibility of publication bias in this study. CONCLUSIONS Compared with conventional chemical drug treatment alone， the combination of compound danshen preparations can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of PU patients with similar safety.
