Aging has emerged as a cutting edge and hotspot in global life science field， with anti-aging and geriatric disease prevention and treatment becoming critical issues urgently demanding solutions in international medical communities. In the face of the challenge of accelerating global population aging， in-depth exploration of aging mechanisms and the development of effective intervention strategies hold significant scientific and clinical value. This study supported by the national key research and development program of China， employed the essence-Qi-spirit theory of Qiluo doctrine as its guiding framework， focusing on the key scientific issue of the core traditional Chinese pathogenesis of aging， namely "depletion of kidney essence， deficiency of primordial Qi， and impairment of body and spirit". The treatment principle of "tonifying the kidney to replenish essence， harmonizing Yin and Yang， warming and invigorating primordial Qi， and nourishing the body and spirit" was established. Centered on holistic aging， systemic aging， and aging-related diseases， the research integrated multidisciplinary research approaches to construct multi-modal aging models and a multi-dimensional evaluation system， and it utilized multi-omics technologies to deeply analyze aging mechanisms. By systematically reviewing historical kidney-tonifying and anti-aging formulas and combining big data with artificial intelligence technologies， an information database of anti-aging traditional Chinese medicine substance was developed to reveal the differences and synergistic effects of various treatment methods and formulas on anti-aging. Based on this treatment method， the research integrated two millennia of kidney-tonifying medicinal experience to develop the innovative anti-aging traditional Chinese medicine， namely Bazhi Bushen capsules. It was validated that this capsule can delay holistic and systemic aging through multiple targets and mechanisms， thereby elucidating the scientific connotation of the essence-Qi-spirit theory of Qiluo doctrine in guiding anti-aging research from multiple dimensions and providing robust support for leveraging the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine to occupy the commanding heights of international anti-aging research.

Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is one of the most common gynecologic malignancies, with the majority of patients diagnosed at an early stage. Surgery is the primary treatment modality, and postoperative risk stratification plays a key role in guiding adjuvant therapy decisions. Lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) is an important pathological feature that affects the prognosis of patients and serves as one of the key factors in risk stratification. This review summarizes the prognostic significance of LVSI in patients with early-stage EC and its impact on the selection of adjuvant therapies, aiming to provide new insights for exploring precise and individualized diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To analyze the application value of transvaginal ultrasonography(TVS)combined with contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)in the diagnosis of cesarean scar pregnancy(CSP).Methods Sixty patients with CSP confirmed by operation and pathology admitted to the First Hospital of Jiaxing from January 2022 to November 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.TVS and CEUS were examined before operation.The detection rate and type diagnosis of CSP were compared between TVS and CEUS alone and combined diagnosis.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the efficiency of TVS and CEUS in identifying gestational cesarean scar pregnancy(GCSP).Results Among the 60 patients with CSP,53 patients with GCSP and 7 patients with mass cesarean scar pregnancy(MCSP)were confirmed by surgery and pathology.The detection rate of CSP by TVS combined with CEUS(98.33％)was significantly higher than that by TVS or CEUS(P＜0.05),and the detection rate of CSP by CEUS was significantly higher than that by TVS(P＜0.05).The detection rate of GCSP by TVS combined with CEUS(100.00％)was significantly higher than that by TVS or CEUS(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of TVS combined with CEUS for identifying GCSP was the largest,which was 0.857.The sensitivity was 100.00％,and the specificity was 71.40％.The detection rate of MCSP by TVS combined with CEUS was significantly higher than that by TVS(P＜0.05).Conclusion TVS combined with CEUS can effectively improve the clinical detection rate of CSP,which is conducive to the diagnosis of CSP classification,and has important application value.

Aging, a complex and multisystem process, has increasingly become a hot issue of global concern. Traditional Chinese medicine has accumulated rich understanding of aging during thousands of years of development, which provides valuable references for the in-depth study of overall aging. According to the Qi-collateral theory in traditional Chinese medicine, essence is the origin of life; Qi is the driving force of life; and spirit is the embodiment of life. This theory interprets key scientific issues such as the formation of life, the driving force of life, the function of Zang-Fu organs, and the spirit and consciousness. Furthermore, it reveals the key mechanism of aging. That is, the deficiency of kidney essence is the root of aging; the loss of vitality is the key of aging; and the depletion of body and spirit is the manifestation of aging. Based on the experience of medical practitioners in the past dynasties, such as nourishing essence, black food tonifying the kidney, and supplementing essence with flesh-blood products, the treatment method of invigorating kidney and supplementing essence, harmonizing Yin and Yang, reinforcing the vitality, and nourishing the body and spirit was proposed. Furthermore, an innovative Chinese patent medicine, Bazi Bushen capsules, is developed, which exerts the antiaging effect by replenishing Qi, invigorating the spirit, and nourishing the body and spirit. Pharmacological and clinical studies have confirmed that this preparation has antiaging effects and are effective in the prevention and treatment of age-related diseases. Experimental studies have shown that Bazi Bushen capsules can delay the overall aging, reduce the DNA methylation and extend the healthy life of naturally aging mice, mitigate the age-related cognitive dysfunction, improve neurological function, maintain redox homeostasis and telomere integrity, and inhibit apoptosis. Moreover, Bazi Bushen capsules can increase the dermal thickness and the collagen fiber and elastic fiber content to prevent skin aging. In addition, Bazi Bushen capsules can correct the lipid metabolism disorders and ameliorate multisystem age-related diseases such as osteoporosis in surgically induced menopausal rats. This article discusses the pathogenesis, treatment, and prescription of aging and the antiaging theory, aiming to provide a basis for delaying aging and preventing related diseases.

A HPLC method was developed for the determination of mangiferin in rat plasma and aqueous humor. 4-Nitrophenol was used as internal standard. Analysis was performed on a Cosmosil ODS C18 analytical column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm) with mobile phase consisting of methanol-water (40: 60) with 2% glacial acetic acid at a flow rate of 1.0 mL x min(-1). The calibration curve of mangiferin in rat plasma and aqueous humor showed excellent linear behaviors over the investigated concentration of 0. 50-250.00 mg x L(-1) in plasma and 0.10-10.00 mg x L(-1) in aqueous humor, respectively, and the correlation coefficients were all above 0.995 4. The intra-day and inter-day precisions for all samples were measured to be below 12%. The limit of quantitation was 0.10 mg x L(-1) and low enough for the determination of mangiferin in all samples. The validated method has been successfully applied to preliminary pharmacokinetics study of mangiferin in rat plasma and aqueous humor.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of remifentanil and propefol combined with local anesthesia for cobiation-assisted upper-airway procedure (CAUP). Methods Eighty ASAⅠorⅡpatients aged 25-60 yr body mass index ≤ 35 kg/m2 with sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome scheduled for CAUP were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=20 each): normal saline group (S), propefol group (P), remifentanil group (R) and propoful + remifentanil group (PR). After topical anesthesia with 1% decicaine, the patients in group S, P, R or PR received iv infusion of normal saline 0.15 ml·kg-1·h-1 , propofol 25 μg·kg-1·min-1 , remifentanil 0.05 μg·kg-1·min-1, or propefol + remifentanil at the same rate respectively. Ten minutes later local infiltration anesthesia was performed in operative field with lidocaine containing epinephrine 1:200 000. Ramsay sedation score and verbal rating scale (VRS) were assessed every 5 min. VRS Ⅲwas defined as anesthesia failure in group S. It was also defined as anesthesia failure that Ramsay sedation score > 3 or occurrence of respiratory depression during increment of propofol or remifentanil in patients with VRS Ⅲ in the other 3 groups. BP and HR were recorded before coblation and 5 rain after coblation. Airway obstruction and apnea were also observed. Results Anesthesia achievement ratio was significantly higher in group R and PR (90% and 100% respectively) than in group S and P (40% and 65% respectively) (P<0.05). SP, DP and HR were significantly lower 5 rain after coblation in group R and PR than in group S (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in incidence of adverse effects between the 4 groups(P>0.05). Conclusion Remifentanil or propofol-remifentanil combined with local anesthesia is safe and effective for CAUP.
