Background Antibiotics are frequently detected in aquatic environments, posing potential threats to ecological systems and public health. Objective To characterize antibiotic contamination in source water in Wuhan, evaluate the removal efficiency of conventional drinking water treatment processes, identify potential pollution sources, and assess ecological risks, thereby providing evidence to support water safety management. Methods A total of 34 source water samples and paired finished water samples were collected. Twenty-seven target antibiotics were analyzed via solid-phase extraction coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Total antibiotic concentrations and the relative contributions of individual antibiotics were calculated for each sampling site. Differences in removal performance across seasons and waterworks scales were further assessed. Antibiotic pairs with co-occurrence frequencies of ≥ 10 were included in Spearman’s rank correlation analysis to explore co-occurrence patterns. Potential sources were inferred according to their approved clinic and veterinary uses. For ecological risk assessment, predicted no-effect concentrations were derived from chronic toxicity values for fish, Daphnia, green algae, and mysid obtained from the ECOSAR database. Risk quotients (RQ) were calculated using both the median and the 95th percentile concentrations to characterize typical and high-end ecological toxicity. Results Seventeen antibiotics were detected in the source water. Lincosamides, macrolides, and sulfonamides were frequently detected, with detection frequencies exceeding 50%. Although quinolones were detected less frequently (2.94%-38.24%), they exhibited episodic high concentrations; the 95th percentile concentration of cinoxacin (CNX) reached 365.73 ng·L−1. The mean total antibiotic concentration was 1.79 times higher in the wet season (105.97 ng·L−1) than in the dry season (59.21 ng·L−1). The contribution of quinolones increased markedly from 0.87% in the dry season to 43.10% in the wet season. Except for flumequine (FQ), ofloxacin (OFX), enoxacin (ENX), and clarithromycin (CLR), the median removal rates of the remaining antibiotics by conventional treatment processes all exceeded 80%. Ten antibiotics achieved complete removal (100%) in the wet season, compared with 4 antibiotics in the dry season. The median removal rate of CLR declined with decreasing waterworks scale, from 67.92% in large-scale plants to –1.96% in medium-scale plants and –71.25% in small-scale plants. Apparent negative removal was observed for sulfadiazine (SDZ), FQ, OFX, and CLR, with OFX exhibiting the highest frequency of negative removal events (n=14). Correlation analysis revealed significant positive correlations between sulfonamides and macrolides (ρ=0.52-0.83), indicating mixed influences from livestock farming and domestic wastewater. Lincomycin (LIN) was positively correlated with sulfamethoxazole (SMX), but negatively correlated with the aforementioned antibiotic network, suggesting a predominantly human medical source. Based on median concentrations, the ecological risk of individual antibiotics was negligible. However, the cumulative risk to Daphnia reached a low level (RQ > 0.01), with sulfonamides contributing more than 70% of this risk. Based on the 95th percentile concentrations, bost individual and cumulative risks of quinolones to fish and Daphnia increased to low levels, with quinolones contributing more than 55% of the total risk. Conclusion Antibiotics are commonly detected in source water in Wuhan, and conventional drinking water treatment dose not completely eliminate all target compounds. Quinolones, despite their relatively low detection frequencies, occur at episodically high concentrations and pose low risks to fish and Daphnia under high-end exposure scenarios, warranting priority control. The coexistence of human-use and veterinary-use antibiotics reflects diverse pollution sources and highlights the need for coordinated multi-source pollution control.

Stomach exuberance and spleen deficiency are common pathogenesis of many metabolic diseases. Through analyzing the pathogenesis of stomach exuberance and spleen deficiency, it is believed that its essence is stomach heat and spleen deficiency. Stomach heat includes gastrointestinal heat, spleen and stomach damp-heat, and spleen deficiency is divided into deficiency of spleen yin, deficiency of spleen qi , and deficiency of spleen yang. It is suggested that the metabolic diseases of stomach-exuberance and spleen-deficiency syndrome can be divided into three categories,i.e. stomach-heat and spleen yin-deficiency, stomach-heat and spleen qi-deficiency, and stomach-heat and spleen yang-deficiency, and the main treatment methods are clearing and draining heat, nourishing yin and moistening intestine, clearing dampness and heat, strengthening spleen and qi, clearing dampness and heat, strengthening spleen and warming yang, respectively, with prescriptions as Maziren Pills (麻子仁丸), Qinlian Pingwei Powder (芩连平胃散), and Jiawei Lianli Decoction (加味连理汤) accordingly.

Objective:To confirm the efficacy and safety of cinepazide maleate injection in acute ischemic stroke patients with obvious motor function deficit.Methods:This study is a subgroup analysis of multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase Ⅳ clinical trial. A total 812 patients of acute ischemic stroke with obvious limb motor deficit [motor function of limbs score in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) ≥4] were enrolled in this subgroup analysis. Patients received either cinepazide maleate injection or placebo. The treatment period was 14 days and follow-up was 90 days. The efficacy endpoints included the proportions of patients with a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ≤2, mRS score ≤1 and Barthel Index <95 on day 90. Safety was evaluated by recording all adverse events, monitoring vital signs, laboratory parameters and electrocardiogram.Results:A total of 732 patients were involved in the final efficacy analysis (361 in cinepazide maleate group and 371 in control group). The baseline limb motor function score of NIHSS was 5.23±1.43 in the cinepazide maleate group whereas 5.20±1.36 in the control group. Logistic regression analysis showed that following treatment for 90 days, the proportion of patients with a mRS score ≤2 was significantly higher in the cinepazide maleate group than in the control group [56.0% (202/361) vs 44.2% (164/371), OR=0.60, 95% CI 0.44-0.82, P=0.002]. The proportion of patients with a mRS score ≤1 was higher in the cinepazide maleate group than in the control group [43.3% (139/361) vs 35.2% (118/371), OR=0.69, 95% CI 0.50-0.97, P=0.031]. The proportion of patients with a Barthel Index <95 on day 90 was significantly lower in the cinepazide maleate group than in the control group [45.2% (145/361) vs 55.2% (185/371), OR=0.64, 95% CI 0.46-0.88, P=0.007]. During the treatment and follow-up period, the incidence of the most common adverse events in the cinepazide maleate group was 50.4% (199/395). Constipation and abnormal liver function were more common, but there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups. Conclusion:Cinepazide maleate injection is superior to placebo in improving neurological function and activities of daily living, reducing disability, and promoting functional recovery and safe in patients with acute ischemic stroke with obvious limb motor deficit.
