OBJECTIVE To establish the UPLC fingerprint and the method for multi-component content determination in Jingangteng capsules， and to evaluate its quality by combining chemical pattern recognition analysis. METHODS An UPLC method was established. Separation was performed on a Zorbax SB-C 18 Rapid Resolution HD column， with acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid as the mobile phase for gradient elution.Using the Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprints of Traditional Chinese Medicines （2012 edition）， UPLC fi ngerprints were established for 10 batches of Jingangteng capsules， and similarity was evaluated. SPSS 22.0 and SIMCA 14.1 software were used to perform hierarchial-cluster analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA）， respectively. The same UPLC method was employed to determine the contents of chlorogenic acid， 3，5-dihydroxy-2-methylbenzoic acid-3- O -glucoside （M1）， caffeic acid， astilbin， oxyresveratrol， quercitrin and resveratrol in the 10 batches of samples. RESULTS A total of 17 common peaks were identified in UPLC fingerprints of the 10 batches of samples， of which 7 were identified as chlorogenic acid， M1， caffeic acid， astilbin， oxyresveratrol， quercitrin， and resveratrol. The similarities of 10 batches of samples ranged from 0.820 to 0.985. The results of hierarchial-cluster analysis showed that 10 batches of samples were grouped into four categories： S1-S4 formed one group， S5 and S6 formed another， S7， S8 and S10 formed a third， and S9 formed a fourth， consistent with the OPLS-DA results； the variable importance projection values for peaks 7， 10， 2， 16 （resveratrol）， 13 （oxyresveratrol）， 11， 6 （caffeic acid）， 5 （M1） and 15 （quercitrin） were ＞1. Quantitative analysis results showed that the contents of chlorogenic acid， M1， caffeic acid， astilbin， oxyresveratrol， quercitrin， and resveratrol were 1.650 8-4.213 7， 0.636 2-2.161 7， 0.031 0-0.086 5， 0.239 1-1.069 3， 0.211 9-1.104 0， 0.488 8-2.399 2， and 0.164 0-0.699 8 mg/g， respectively. CONCLUSIONS UPLC fingerprint and content determination methods established in this study are simple to operate， accurate， reliable and reproducible； when combined with chemical pattern recognition analysis， they can be used to evaluate the quality of Jingangteng capsules. Nine components， such as resveratrol， oxyresveratrol， caffeic acid， M1 and quercitrin， may serve as markers of quality variation.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and disease burden of liver cancer in Guangdong Province in 2020, and to provide a scientific foundation for the development of regionalized prevention and control strategies for liver cancer. Methods According to the cancer registry data of Guangdong Province, the incidence, mortality and age-standardized rate by Chinese standard population in 2020 were calculated to analyze the epidemiological characteristics of liver cancer. The disability adjusted life years (DALYs), year of life loss (YLL), year of lived with disability (YLD), and cause-eliminated life expectancy were used to assess the disease burden of liver cancer. Results In 2020, the crude incidence rate and the age-standardized incidence rate of liver cancer in Guangdong Province were 27.79/100 000 and 20.84/100 000，respectively, and the crude mortality rate and the age-standardized mortality rate of liver cancer were 25.49/100,000 and 17.64/100 000, respectively. The total DALY and DALY rate of liver cancer in Guangdong Province were 515 311 person-years and 513.83/100 000, respectively. After eliminating the causes of death from liver cancer, the life expectancy in Guangdong Province increased from 84.60 years to 84.99 years. All indicators consistently demonstrated that the burden of liver cancer was higher in males than that in females, and the burden of liver cancer was higher in rural areas than that in urban areas. Conclusion Liver cancer in Guangdong Province exhibits a high incidence, mortality and disease burden level in 2020. There are obvious differences of gender, age and region in cancer burden. It is necessary to strengthen liver cancer screening and diagnosis and treatment in men, the elderly and those in rural areas to reduce the burden of liver cancer gradually in Guangdong Province.

With the accelerating trend of population aging, the number of elderly patients with lung cancer continues to rise, and the disease burden is becoming increasingly heavy. The clinical management of these patients faces severe challenges due to their decreased physiological reserve, complex comorbidities, and significant individual heterogeneity. Consequently, under traditional diagnosis and treatment models, doctors often struggle to identify the individualized risks of elderly patients in a timely and comprehensive manner, which can easily lead to decision biases such as undertreatment or overtreatment. In view of this, this study advocates for the establishment of an umbrella decision-making model specifically tailored for elderly lung cancer patients. Grounded in a multidisciplinary team (MDT) platform, this model deeply integrates oncological indicators with the comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) system. By holistically considering multidimensional variables including tumor burden, organ function, frailty index, cognitive status, and social support, the model establishes an operational mechanism characterized by "single entry, precise stratification, and targeted selection". Accordingly, patients can be scientifically triaged into distinct intervention tiers, such as active surveillance, minimally invasive surgery, drug therapy, radiotherapy, and best supportive care, thereby achieving real-time alignment between treatment intensity and patient fitness. This article elaborates on the construction logic and key operational procedures of this novel decision-making framework, aiming to guide clinical practice beyond the limitations of a tumor-centric perspective toward a holistic, dynamic, whole-course management strategy. This transition seeks to ensure optimal quality of life and clinical net benefit for elderly patients alongside survival prolongation.

Objective To explore the mechanism of Cistanche phenylethanoid glycosides(CPhGs)in treating osteoporosis by regu-lating osteogenic differentiation via SIRT2-C/EBPβ-AREG axis.Methods An osteoporosis mouse model was established using ova-riectomy.Trabecular number/thickness,bone formation rate,and tissue morphology were evaluated using micro-computed tomography,calcein double labeling,and hematoxylin and eosin staining,respectively.SIRT2,C/EBPβ,AREG,proteins related to the SIRT2-C/EBPβ-AREG axis,were analyzed by Western blotting and co-immunoprecipitation.The mRNA expression of osteogenic differentiation marker genes OCN,OPN,RUNX2,C/EBPβ,and AREG were detected by real-time quantitative PCR.Results CPhGs intervention significantly improved the trabecular microarchitecture and promoted bone formation in mice undergoing ovariectomy,and the mechanism involved the activation of SIRT2-mediated deacetylation of C/EBPβ,which in turn upregulated AREG expression.Cell experiments confirmed that CPhGs significantly increased the activity of alkaline phosphatase and the expression of osteogenic genes such as OCN,OPN,and RUNX2 in MC3T3-E1 cells by enhancing the interaction between SIRT2 and C/EBPβ.Notably,this effect could be reversed by SIRT2 knockdown.Conclusion CPhGs regulate the osteogenic differentiation process through the SIRT2-C/EBPβ-AREG axis,providing a new molecular target and theoretical basis for the treatment of osteoporosis with the active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective To explore the mechanism of high mobility group AT-hook 1(Hmga1)in regulating the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell(BMSC)through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in the treatment of osteopo-rosis.Methods Hmga1-overexpressing lentiviral vector(LV)was constructed in vitro to transfect rat BMSC,and the Wnt signal inhibitor Dickkopf-1(DKK1)was used for intervention.Osteogenic differentiation-related indices were analyzed by qRT-PCR,Western blot,alkaline phosphatase(ALP)activity detection and Alizarin red staining.Ovariectomized(OVX)osteoporosis rat model was established,and Hmga1-LV was injected into the bone marrow cavity.Micro-CT,histological staining and immuno-fluorescence techniques were used to evaluate the bone microstructure and the expression of osteogenic differentiation-related proteins.Results Hmga1 expression was upregulated in a time-dependent manner during osteogenic differentiation of BMSC,while Hmga1 expression was significantly decreased in the bone tissue of OVX rats.Overexpression of Hmga1 significantly en-hanced the ALP activity and mineralized nodule formation of BMSC,and upregulated the expression of Runt-related transcrip-tion factor 2(Runx2)and osteocalcin(Ocn).The effect was partially reversed by DKK1.Hmga1 overexpression activated the Wnt/β-catenin pathway by promoting the nuclear translocation of β-catenin.In vivo experiments showed that Hmga1-LV treat-ment significantly improved trabecular thickness(Tb.Th)and bone volume fraction(BV/TV)in OVX rats,and reduced trabecu-lar separation(Tb.Sp),but had no significant effect on osteoclast differentiation.Conclusion Hmga1 promotes BMSC osteogen-ic differentiation and reverses OVX-induced bone loss by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway,providing a potential target for gene therapy of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,brain-computer interface technology has shown significant promise for rehabilitating limb dysfunction in stroke patients.With ongoing research deepening and its broader clinical application,combining brain-computer interface with other rehabilitation therapies to improve limb function has become a focal point of study.OBJECTIVE:To analyze and summarize the efficacy of brain-computer interface combined with various therapies in treating limb dysfunction in stroke patients and to explore the clinical value of these combined strategies.METHODS:The search terms used for the literature review in Chinese databases were"brain-computer interface,BCI,stroke,"while the terms"brain-computer interface,BCI,brain-computer interaction,brain-machine interface,BMI,stroke"were used for English databases.Literature searches were conducted in CNKI,WanFang,VIP,PubMed,Embase,and Web of Science,from the time of database construction to September 2024.Finally,a total of 3 054 articles were retrieved,and 75 articles were included after screening for summarization.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Currently,brain-computer interfaces,used alone or in combination with other treatments such as Chinese medical treatment,conventional rehabilitation therapy,or physical factor therapy,are achieving better outcomes in treating limb dysfunction in stroke patients.However,the efficacy of brain-computer interfaces combined with transcranial direct current stimulation for treating upper and lower limb dysfunctions is still debated.Researchers are increasingly recognizing the feasibility of these combined therapies.Yet,challenges such as limited exploration of therapeutic mechanisms,absence of standardized protocols,and small sample sizes hinder their broad application.Future research should therefore focus on understanding the mechanisms by which brain-computer interfaces can enhance effects when combined with other therapies and on standardizing criteria for clinical trials to enable widespread clinical adoption.
