Chinese medicinal material from Fritillaria， Beimu in Chinese， is a commonly used antitussive and expectorant traditional Chinese herbal medicine， with the significant functions of clearing heat and moistening lung，resolving phlegm and relieving cough. Five kinds of Fritillaria were recorded in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia， including Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus， Fritillariae Ussuriensis Bulbus， Fritillariae Thunbergii Bulbus， Fritillariae Hupehensis Bulbus and Fritillariae Pallidiflorae Bulbus. At present， the reports on Fritillaria mainly focus on the pharmacological effect， chemical composition， identification of authenticity and other aspects， while there were few reports on harvesting and primary processing of original medicinal materials. Fritillaria medicines were perennial medicinal plant with various and complex varieties， their quality and curative effect were greatly affected by harvesting and processing in producing area. The processing method differed according to its variety. Fritillariae Cirrhosae Bulbus mainly from western Sichuan plateau， Fritillariae Pallidiflorae Bulbus from Xinjiang and Fritillariae Ussuriensis Bulbus from Northeast China were mostly harvested from June to July and sun dried directly or dried. But Fritillariae Thunbergii Bulbus and Fritillariae Hupehensis Bulbus from Yangtze River basin were harvested when the plants wilted at the beginning of summer， and auxiliary materials such as shell powder and lime must be added during the processing. At present， the drying methods of Fritillaria were still traditional， which is not suitable for large-scale production of cultivated products. Therefore， it is urgent to find a scientific， reasonable and efficient processing methods. Aimed at providing references for standardization production of Fritillaria， this paper made a textual research on the ancient and modern herbal literature， the Chinese Pharmacopoeia and other medicinal standards， combined with modern literature， the harvesting and processing methods of Fritillaria were sorted out and prospected.

ObjectiveTo study the accumulation and absorption of dry matter and nutrients in Curcuma phaeocaulis from Sichuan， the origin of Curcumae Radix （tuber） and Curcumae Rhizoma （rhizome）， to explore the growth and development laws and nutrient demand characteristics of the medicinal species， and thus to lay a theoretical basis for rational fertilization. MethodThe plant growth indexes， dry matter accumulation， and nutrient content of C. phaeocaulis at different growth stages in Sichuan were measured and analyzed. ResultThis medicinal species featured the dominant growth of aboveground leaves and stems before October and growth of underground part （particularly the rhizomes and tubers） from October. During the whole growth period， the accumulation of nitrogen， phosphorus， potassium， calcium， magnesium， iron， manganese， zinc， and copper per plant was 2 450.31， 907.09， 3 171.18， 625.94， 493.38， 14.53， 2.24 ， 2.93， 0.46 mg， respectively， with the order of potassium > nitrogen > phosphorus > calcium > magnesium > iron > zinc > manganese > copper. ConclusionThe species needs sufficient potassium and nitrogen， appropriate amount of phosphorus， calcium， and magnesium， a small amount of iron， and very little zinc， manganese， and copper for growth， and potassium is particularly important. Nitrogen， phosphorus， and potassium fertilizers supply macroelements and nitrogen fertilizer should be supplemented at seedling stage， leafy stage， early rhizome expansion stage， tuber expansion stage， and the second expansion stage of rhizome. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be applied at seedling stage， tuber expansion stage， secondary expansion stage of rhizome， and dry matter accumulation stage of tuber and rhizome. At seedling stage， leafy stage， early rhizome expansion stage， tuber expansion stage， and the second expansion stage of rhizome， a variety of medium and trace elements-containing foliar fertilizers should be used.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and correlates of depression in residents aged 15 and older in Hainan province.Methods Stratified multistage random sampling methods were utilized to identify 12 117 individuals (≥15 years old) from 59 villages (neighborhoods) in 24 towns (streets) within 6 counties (cities) in Hainan Province from September 2010 to November 2011.The subjects were screened with an expanded version of the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) and the respondents were divided into three groups by high risk,moderate risk and low risk of mental disorder,followed by formal diagnosis according to the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV-TR (SCID-I/P) by psychiatrists among 100％ subjects in group with high risk,40％ subjects in group with moderate risk and 10％ subjects in group with low risk.The adjusted rate,standardized rate,and 95％ confidence interval (95％CI) of the one-month and lifetime prevalence were also calculated among the 3 groups of individuals who were diagnosed with depressive disorder.The difference in whether they suffered depression was determined by the chi-squared test.Correlations to depressive disorder and the odds ratio (OR) were explored with multiple regression analysis.Results There were 97 cases of depressive disorders (1-month) and 166 cases of lifetime depressive disorders finally confirmed.The adjusted rate of 1-month prevalence was 1.38％ (95％CI:1.12-1.59) and the life-time adjusted prevalence rate was 2.80％ (95％CI:2.51-3.09).Female (OR=1.55,95％CI:1.12-2.14),mid-age(50-64 y,OR=1.84,95％CI:1.13-2.99),being divorced or living separated (OR=4.87,95％CI:1.86-12.73),suffering chronic diseases (OR=2.19,95％CI:1.56-3.07),and low family income were significantly associated with suffering depressive disorder.Conclusions The prevalence of the depressive disorder among residents aged 15 and older in Hainan province is lower than the nationwide prevalence.People who are female,mid-age,being divorced or not living with the partner,earning a low income,and suffering chronic diseases have more predisposition to develop the depressive disorder in Hainan province.

Professor Cai Wanru believes that in the stable phase of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, "phlegm" and "stasis" are intertwined, with "phlegm" as the main component. Disease is manifested mostly in the lungs, spleen and kidney, and along with the duration of the disease, the patients are prone to "sputum", "stasis" and other pathological products, so that acute aggravating symptoms are often induced due to the transformation from "phlegm" to "stasis". The clinical manifestations are mainly the lack of righteousness, and various symptoms due to phlegm stagnation and blood stasis. Therefore, Professor Cai believes that the thought of "preventive treatment of disease" should be throughout the treatment of the disease. The thought is based on the principle of the relationships between the five internal organs. According to the characteristics of disease transmission, combined with the syndrome differentiation of physical constitution, the importance of strengthening the body resistance and nourishing the vigour was emphasized. In terms of the methods of treatment, methods such as nourishing the lungs and tonifying the spleen, warming the kidney and tonifying qi are often applied, so the prescription is flexible and the compatibility is rigorous. In terms of the control of symptoms and prevention of acute exacerbations, it has a significant effect. Therefore, the thought of "preventive treatment of disease" proposed by Professor Cai Wanru has a practical value in the clinical treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which is worthy of promotion.

Objective To study the effect of interventional treatment of iliac and femoral vein stenosis concomitant with deep venous thrombosis. Method Fifty-three patients were divided into 5 groups. In group A after placing into inferior vena cava a filter,11 patients adopted Amplatz Trombectomy Device for thrombolysis or ORSIS thrombolysis and persistent thrombolysis through popliteal vein. In group B thrombus was taken out through guiding catheter and then persistent thrombolysis through popliteal vein after placing into inferior vena cava filters in 9 cases. In group C 13 patients adopted persistent thrombolysis through femoral arteries. In group D 8 patients received persistent thrombolysis through popliteal vein. In group E persistent thrombolysis through foot veins was carried out in 12 patients. Seventeen patients received implanted stents and balloon-expansion in iliac and femoral veins. Results Symptoms disappeared in 26 patients(49.0%), significantly improved in 21 patients (39.6%), improved in 3 patients (5.7%), did not improve in 3 patients (5.7%), respectively. The repatency of iliac and femoral vein was achieved in more than 80% of the 17 patients. Complications developed in 3 cases in the course of thrombolysis. Conclusion The effect of mechanical removal of thrombus, persistent thrombolysis through catheter and transluminal angioplasty is safe and satisfactory.
