Objective To analyze chemical constituents of compound Maxing Shigan decoction by ultra-high perfor-mance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF/MS). Methods The separation was performed on a UPLC BEH C18 column (2.1 mm×100 mm, 2.5 µm),with a gradient elution applying 0.1% aqueous formic acid solution and 0.1% formic acid acetonitrile as a mobile phase. The column temperature was 40 °C. The flow rate was 0.4 ml/min and the analysis time was 15 min. Mass spectrometry (MS) data were collected in both positive and negative ESI ion modes. Results Through UPLC-QTOF/MS analysis and reference validation, a total of 59 chemical components in Maxing Shigan decoction were identified. Conclusion An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF/MS) method was established to identify the chemical components of Maxing Shigan decoction. This method is simple, efficient, sensitive and accurate, and provides a basis for the elucidation of the pharmacodynamic material basis and mechanism of Maxing Shigan decoction. It can provide data reference for the optimization of the compatibility of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of COVID-19.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of obinutuzumab combined with short-course dexamethasone in patients with relapsed immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who had previously been treated with rituximab.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. A total of 8 patients with relapsed ITP after treatment with rituximab who received obinutuzumab combined with short-course dexamethasone between January 2023 and January 2024 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University were collected. The clinical characteristics, changes in platelet counts, changes in peripheral blood B-lymphocyte counts, treatment outcome and treatment-related adverse events were analyzed.Results:There were 1 male and 7 females in 8 patients with relapsed ITP after treatment with rituximab. The median age [ M ( Q1, Q3)] of the 8 enrolled patients was 52.5 (40.5, 56.0) years. The median relapsed times was 2.0 (2.0, 2.5) times and the median course of disease was 16.0 (13.0, 18.5) months. The platelet count increased from 8.73 (5.79, 11.65)×10 9/L pre-treatment to 180.00 (83.40, 255.00)×10 9/L post-treatment, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z = -2.37, P = 0.018); conversely, peripheral blood B-lymphocyte count decreased from 322.59 (148.29, 403.07) × 10 9/L pre-treatment to 1.23 (0.57, 1.76) ×10 9/L post-treatment, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z = -2.52, P = 0.012). After obinutuzumab and short-course dexamethasone treatment, 6 patients achieved complete remission, 1 case showed response, and 1 case had no response. No severe adverse events were observed during treatment and follow-up in all patients. Conclusions:Obinutuzumab combined with short-course dexamethasone appears to be effective in treating relapsed ITP patients after treatment with rituximab, and its safety is good.

Objective To understand the current status of stigma among lung cancer patients in Yunnan and analyze its influencing factors.Methods A convenience sampling method was employed to select 248 lung cancer patients from a tertiary cancer hospital in Yunnan from July 2022 to July 2023.A demographic questionnaire and the Chinese version of the Lung Cancer Patient Stigma Scale were used to investigate their demographic characteristics and stigma levels.Results The total score of stigma in lung cancer patients was(96.92±14.87).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that education level,long-term residence,ethnicity and family relationship were the influencing factors of stigma score in lung cancer patients(P<0.05).Conclusion The stigma level among lung cancer patients is relatively high.Patients with higher education levels,those living in rural areas for a long time,ethnic minorities,and those with better family relationships exhibited higher stigma levels.Enhancing the accessibility of medical resources,establishing a comprehensive social support system,and paying attention to and respecting the cultural differences and beliefs of lung cancer patients can provide them with greater understanding,support,and encouragement,thereby reducing the stigma levels.

Objective:To investigate the effects and underlying molecular mechanisms of Utidelone (UTD1) in small cell lung cancer (SCLC).Methods:The study utilized small cell lung cancer H446 and H1048 cell lines along with animal models. Cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, apoptosis, autophagy, and related activities following UTD1 treatment were assessed using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), flow cytometry, immunofluorescence staining, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation assay, and Western blot analysis. The involvement of the ROS/adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway was also examined. Data analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism version 8 software.Results:UTD1 inhibited the viability of H446 and H1048 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The half inhibitory concentrations (IC 50) of UTD1 for H446 and H1048 cells were 0.675 and 0.439 μg/ml, respectively. The proportion of cells in the G 2/M phase for H446 and H1048 cells in the UTD1 group at 6 h, 12 h, and 24 h was [(53.86±4.54)%, (68.59±5.49)%, (60.89±3.26)%] and [(46.83±2.20)%, (60.67±3.44)%, (57.88±5.11)%], which were significantly higher than that in the control group, except for the proportion of H1048 cells at 6 h [(38.99±2.60)% vs. (40.73±2.50)%, P<0.05]. The apoptosis rates were [(23.57±0.12)%, (35.79±1.59)%, and (46.15±4.57)%] for H446 cells and [(23.05±2.70)%, (37.73±2.97)%, and (43.39±3.31)% for H1048 cells], all of which were significantly higher than those in the control group [(6.44±0.96)%, (6.31±0.75)%, respectively; all P<0.05]. The number of LC3 fluorescent spots was [(56±11), (69±8), and (66±8)] for H446 cells and [(39±7), (56±12), and (50±11)] for H1048 cells, both significantly higher than those in the control group [(13±6) and (12±5), respectively; both P<0.05]. The relative fluorescence intensity of ROS was 2.54±0.48, 2.85±0.68, and 5.03±0.72 for H446 cells and 2.26±0.51, 4.17±0.35, and 4.66±0.51 for H1048 cells, which were also significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). The expression levels of cyclin B1, cyclin A2, and P21 of H446 cells in the three time points were [(0.63±0.07, 0.33±0.05, 0.23±0.04), (0.68±0.08, 0.46±0.03, 0.27±0.06), and (0.64±0.03, 0.32±0.05, 0.22±0.03), respectively], all significantly lower compared to the control group ( P<0.05). The apoptosis rates of H446 and H1048 cells in the UTD1+Z-VAD-FMK group were (19.97±3.19)% and (17.68±3.14)%, both lower than those in the UTD1 group [(40.73±3.35)% and (39.82±2.45)%, respectively; all P<0.05]. The absorbance values of H446 and H1048 cells in the UTD1+3-MA group were significantly higher than those in the UTD1 group at 6h, 12h, and 24h (all P<0.05). The levels of p-AMPKα/AMPKα, LC3-II expression, and the percentage of apoptotic cells in the H446 and H1048 cells of the UTD1+NAC group were [(1.33±0.09, 1.33±0.11), (1.49±0.16, 1.55±0.05), (17.24±2.15)%, and (19.40±4.28)%], all of which were lower than those observed in the UTD1 group [(1.98±0.17, 2.23±0.23), (2.81±0.19, 2.49±0.38), (38.07±3.53)%, and (41.20±1.87)%, all P<0.05]. The number of LC3 fluorescence points and the percentage of apoptotic cells in the H446 and H1048 cells of the UTD1+si-AMPKα group [(24±5, 23±3), (18.35±1.15)%, and (19.15±3.46)%] were all lower than those in the UTD1+si-NC group [(46±6, 36±6), (39.34±1.77)%, and (39.50±2.15)%, all P<0.05]. The tumor inhibition rates in small cell lung cancer tumor-bearing nude mice for the 2.5 mg/kg UTD1 group and the 5 mg/kg UTD1 group were 46.43% and 58.33%, respectively. Furthermore, the proportions of apoptosis-positive cells and p-AMPKα-positive cells in the UTD1 group were significantly higher compared to the control group, while the levels of Ki-67 positivity were significantly reduced. Conclusion:UTD1 inhibits SCLC cell proliferation, induces G 2/M phase arrest, and promotes cell apoptosis and autophagy through the activation of the ROS/AMPK signaling pathway.
