BACKGROUND:At present,modern medical treatment has certain limitations on the treatment of knee osteoarthritis.Traditional Chinese medicine alkaloids can effectively prevent and treat knee osteoarthritis through various mechanisms. OBJECTIVE:To review the mechanism of alkaloids in traditional Chinese medicine in the prevention and treatment of knee osteoarthritis,providing a scientific basis for the clinical development of drugs for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. METHODS:CNKI,WanFang,PubMed,Web of Science and Google Scholar were retrieved for relevant literature published from database inception to May 2024.The key words were"knee osteoarthritis""osteoarthritis""osteoclast""chondrocyte""alkaloids"in Chinese and English.Duplicates and obsolete non-referenced literature were excluded,and a total of 68 eligible papers were included for further review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Although traditional Chinese medicine has a long history of treating knee osteoarthritis,only a small number of natural compounds are in the preclinical stage of research against knee osteoarthritis.Alkaloids have a greater potential for the prevention and treatment of knee osteoarthritis,among which,sophocarpidine,oxymatrine,sinomenine,and betaine have been shown to be effective in the prevention and treatment of knee osteoarthritis by modulating multiple signaling pathways.Alkaloids can delay the progression of knee osteoarthritis by inhibiting inflammatory response,exerting antioxidant response,inhibiting chondrocyte apoptosis,promoting chondrocyte proliferation,and inhibiting osteoclast formation and differentiation.

Hearing loss is the most prevalent disabling disease. Cochlear implantation（CI） serves as the primary intervention for severe to profound hearing loss. This consensus systematically explores the value of genetic diagnosis in the pre-operative assessment and efficacy prognosis for CI. Drawing upon domestic and international research and clinical experience, it proposes an evidence-based medicine three-tiered prognostic classification system（Favorable, Marginal, Poor）. The consensus focuses on common hereditary non-syndromic hearing loss（such as that caused by mutations in genes like GJB2, SLC26A4, OTOF, LOXHD1） and syndromic hereditary hearing loss（such as Jervell & Lange-Nielsen syndrome and Waardenburg syndrome）, which are closely associated with congenital hearing loss, analyzing the impact of their pathological mechanisms on CI outcomes. The consensus provides recommendations based on multiple round of expert discussion and voting. It emphasizes that genetic diagnosis can optimize patient selection, predict prognosis, guide post-operative rehabilitation, offer stratified management strategies for patients with different genotypes, and advance the application of precision medicine in the field of CI.

Objective:To explore the adverse outcomes of pregnant women with overt diabetes mellitus(ODM).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 1321 pregnant women delivered in Peking Universi-ty International Hospital.Pregnant women were divided into normal blood glucose group(NGDM),gestational di-abetes mellitus group(GDM)and overt diabetes mellitus group(ODM).Maternal and neonatal adverse out-comes were compared.Results:The age,early pregnancy glycosylated hemoglobin,uric acid,triglycerides and late pregnancy glycosylated hemoglobin levels of women in ODM group were significantly higher than those in NGDM group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.01).The risk of developing gestation hyper-tension(OR 6.32,P＜0.01)and cesarean section(OR 1.87,P＜0.05)in the ODM group was significantly high-er than that in the NGDM group.The rate of preterm birth(OR 2.73,P＜0.05)and macrosomia(OR 3.45,P＜0.01)in the ODM group was significantly higher than that in the NGDM group.Compared with the GDM group,the ODM group did not significantly increase the risk of hypertension,eclampsia or preeclampsia,shoulder dysto-cia,premature rupture of placenta,cesarean section,preterm birth,macrosomia,and low body mass infants(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Pregnant women with ODM increase the risk of gestational hypertension,cesarean section,preterm birth and macrosomia.Active management is needed in pregnant women with ODM.

Objective To evaluate the pharmacokinetic characteristics and safety of single and multiple oral azvudine tablets in healthy young and elderly Chinese subjects.Methods This was a open-label and parallel-group study.The trial consisted of two groups:healthy young subjects group and healthy elderly subjects group,with 12 subjects in each group.Enrolled subjects were first given a single dose,fasting oral azvudine tablet 5 mg,after a 3-day cleansing period entered the multiple dose phase,fasting oral azvudine tablet 5 mg·d-1 for 7 days.Results After a single dose of azvudine 5 mg,Cmax and AUC0-∞ were(4.76±2.12)ng·mL-1,(6.53±2.20)ng·mL-1·h,and Tmax,t1/2 were 0.75,1.87 h in young subjects;Cmax and AUC0-∞ were(6.40±3.25)ng·mL-1,(9.50±3.70)ng·mL-1·h,and Tmax,t1/2 were 0.63,2.66 h in elderly subjects.After a multiple dose of azvudine 5 mg·d-1 for 7 d,Cmax and AUC0-∞ were(3.26±1.61)ng·mL-1,(5.38±2.19)ng·mL-1·h,and Tmax,ss,t1/2,ss were 0.88,2.13 h in young subjects;Cmax,ss and AUC0-∞,ss were(3.97±2.09)ng·mL-1,(6.71±3.26)ng·mL-1·h,and Tmax,ss,t1/2,ss were 0.75,2.56 h in elderly subjects.Elderly/young geometric mean ratios and 90％CIs were 128.37％(88.23％-186.76％),139.93％(105.42％-185.72％),140.03％(106.33％-184.41％)for azvudine Cmax,AUC0-t,AUC0-∞ after a single dose,and were 118.66％(80.83％-174.20％),118.41％(83.60％-167.69％),118.95％(84.78％-166.89％)for azvudine Cmax,AUC0-t,AUC0_∞ after a multiple dose of azvudine 5 mg·d-1 for 7 d.Conclusion After single and multiple oral administration of azvudine tablets,systemic exposure to azvudine was higher in healthy elderly subjects compared with healthy young subjects.After taking azvudine tablets,the types,severity and incidence of adverse events and adverse drug reactions in healthy elderly people were not significantly different from those in healthy young subjects.Azvudine was found to be safe and well tolerated in healthy elderly subjects.

Objective To evaluate the effect of acupuncture at Yin Wei point on postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)in female patients undergoing abdominal surgery.The clinical efficacy of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)and its impact on gut microbiota.Methods This study included 184 patients who underwent gynecological laparoscopic surgery in Jinhua Central Hospital from January 2021 to April 2024.They were randomly divided into control group(n=93)and acupuncture group(n=91)using a random number method.At the completion of surgery,the control group received intravenous injection of 5mg of tropisetron hydrochloride.In acupuncture group,on the basis of control group,intervention was performed by needling the palmar Yin Wei points of both forearms for 30 minutes before surgery.The incidence and severity of PONV were compared between two groups of patients.In addition,fecal samples were collected from two groups of patients before and after surgery,and differential analysis of gut microbiota community structure was performed using 16S amplicon absolute quantitative sequencing technology.Results In the 0-24 hours after surgery,40 cases of the acupuncture group and 56 cases of control group experienced PONV.The acupuncture group's PONV incidence was lower than control group's(P＜0.05).The nausea severity of acupuncture group after surgery was significantly lower than that of control groups.The proportion of patients taking antiemetic drugs after surgery in acupuncture group was also significantly lower than that in control group(P＜0.05).Before surgery,the two groups have no significant difference regarding Chao1,ACE,Shannon,and Simpson indices(P＞0.05).After surgery,the acupuncture group's Chao1,ACE,and Shannon indices were significantly higher than control group's(P＜0.05).The Simpson scores of two groups of patients were compared after surgery,and no significant difference was found(P＞0.05).The Observed,Chao1,ACE,and Shannon indices were significantly higher in the acupuncture group after surgery than before(P＜0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions in acupuncture group and control group were 8.8％and 8.6％,respectively,and there was no statistical significance(P＞0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture at Yin Wei point combined with intravenous injection of tropisetron can reduce the incidence of PONV in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery.
