ObjectiveBased on modern analytical techniques and a depressed mouse model established by chronic unpredictable mild stress（CUMS）， to evaluate the quality marker（Q-Marker） and pharmacodynamic difference of Baihe Dihuangtang prepared by different processes. MethodsHigh performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） was used to establish the characteristic profiles of Baihe Dihuangtang， and determine the content of Q-Marker in the samples prepared by ancient and modern processes. Seventy C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into the normal group， model group， fluoxetine group（3 mg·kg^-1）， low and high dose groups of ancient process（6.5， 26 g·kg^-1）， and low and high dose groups of modern process（6.5， 26 g·kg^-1）， with 10 mice in each group. Except for the normal group， CUMS was used to induce depression in mice from the other groups for 28 d. After successful modeling， administration groups were given the corresponding drugs by gavage every day， and the normal and model groups were given an equal volume of pure water by gavage for 21 consecutive days. Change in body mass of mice was recorded， tail suspension test and open field test were used to evaluate the depressive behavior of mice， and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） was employed to determine the contents of tumor necrosis factor-α（TNF-α）， interleukin（IL）-1β and IL-6 in serum. ResultsCharacteristic profiles of Baihe Dihuangtang prepared by the two processes were established， the similarity between the two was 0.951， and 8 characteristic peaks were recognized with the reference peak of regaloside A. The results of quantitative analysis showed that the Q-Marker content was similar in Baihe Dihuangtang prepared by ancient and modern processes. The results of pharmacodynamics showed that， compared with the normal group， the model group showed increased immobility time in the tail suspension test， reduced total movement distance in the open field test， and elevated IL-1β， IL-6 and TNF-α levels in the serum（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the behavioral indicators of mice in the Baihe Dihuangtang treatment group were significantly improved in terms of tail suspension time and open field exercise， and the levels of IL-1β， IL-6 and TNF-α in serum were significantly reduced（P<0.05， P<0.01）. Baihe Dihuangtang prepared by the two processes both had antidepressant effects， and the difference between the two was not statistically significant in improving depressive symptoms. ConclusionQ-Marker of Baihe Dihuangtang prepared by modern and ancient methods are equivalent in content， and the pharmacological effects are consistent， indicating that dried Lilii Bulbus can replace fresh products in the preparation of Baihe Dihuangtang. This study provides a scientific basis for the development of new drugs of Baihe Dihuangtang and a reference for its rational application and clinical use.

Baihe Dihuangtang is a famous classical formula that has been respected by physicians in the past and is still used today. It was first recorded in ZHANG Zhongjing's Synopsis of the Golden Chamber， and is composed of Lilii Bulbus and Rehmanniae Radix juice. This paper systematically reviewed the research progress of historical evolution， pharmacological activities and clinical applications of Baihe Dihuangtang in recent years， and found that there was no major changes in the composition， decoction method and indications of this formula since the Han dynasty. According to the herbal textual research， the fleshy scaly leaves of Lilium brownii var. viridulum should be selected for Lilii Bulbus in this formula， and the tuberous roots of Rehmannia glutinosa were selected for Rehmanniae Radix. According to the dosage conversion of ancient and modern times， the dosage is 245 g of fresh Lilii Bulbus and 400 g of fresh Rehmanniae Radix， and the ratio of their juice is 1∶1. Its efficacy is to nourish Yin and clear heat， and to tonify the heart and lungs， which is used to treat the heart and lung Yin deficiency syndrome of lily disease. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that the research on the pharmacological effects of Baihe Dihuangtang mainly focuses on anti-depressant， anti-anxiety， improving insomnia and regulating metabolism， and it is mostly used clinically for neurological disorders such as depression， anxiety and insomnia. The quality marker（Q-Marker） of Baihe Dihuangtang were predicted according to the principles of ingredient specificity， component validity， component measurability， formula compatibility， and quality transmissibility and traceability， and it was determined that catalpol， rhmannioside D， regaloside A， regaloside B， regaloside C， and acteoside could be selected as potential Q-Markers of Baihe Dihuangtang， which could provide scientific reference for the establishment of the quality control system and the development of compound preparation of this famous classical formula.

Objective To explore the nutritional risk investigation and influencing factors of elderly patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Methods The clinical data of 239 elderly patients with CAP in Western Theater General Hospital were retrospectively analyzed from January 2022 to January 2024. Nutritional risk screening scale (NRS2002) was used to investigate the nutritional risk of patients. According to the nutritional risk investigation results, 239 elderly patients with CAP were divided into higher risk group (NRS2002≥3 points) and lower risk group (NRS2002<3 points). Univariate analysis was used to compare the gender, age, education level, body mass index (BMI), family monthly income, living condition, severity of pneumonia, smoking history, presence or absence of chronic diseases, cognitive dysfunction and self-care ability. The independent risk factors of nutritional risk in elderly patients with CAP were analyzed by binary logistic regression analysis. Results According to NRS2002 score, there were 87 cases (36.4%) in higher risk group and 152 cases (63.6%) in lower risk group. The NRS2002 scores in higher risk group were significantly higher than those in lower risk group (P<0.05). There were no obvious differences in gender, BMI, family monthly income and presence or absence of smoking history between groups (P>0.05). The higher risk group had significantly higher rates of age>70 years old, education level (high school and below), living condition (living alone), severity of pneumonia (high-risk pneumonia), chronic disease, cognitive dysfunction and poor self-care ability than the lower risk group (P<0.05). Binary logistics regression analysis showed that age>70 years old , education level of high school and below, living condition (living alone), severity of pneumonia (high-risk pneumonia), chronic diseases, cognitive dysfunction and self-care ability (poor) were independent risk factors for nutritional risk in elderly CAP patients (P<0.05). Conclusion Elderly patients with CAP have high nutritional risk, which may be affected by many factors such as age, education level, living condition, severity of pneumonia, presence or absence of chronic diseases, cognitive dysfunction and self-care ability. It is necessary to formulate targeted intervention measures according to the above factors to improve the nutritional risk of patients.

To enhance the learning stickiness, improve low completion rate of online teaching, and promote teaching quality has become the key to solve the contradiction in online teaching. In this paper, taking the teaching of biochemistry as example, based on the trigger mechanism, maintenance mechanism and migration mechanism of sticky learning, guided by the three-dimensional goal of "knowledge and skills, process and method, emotional attitude and values", the BOPPPS (bridge-in, objective, pre-assessment, participatory-learning, post-assessment, summary) teaching model was combined with online teaching. According to the interactive behavior in the course learning space, the Spearman rank correlation analysis was performed by SPSS 18.0 software to comprehensively evaluate the learning stickiness degree. The research has found that, due to its "micro but refined, compact structure and student-centered" characteristics, BOPPPS combining with online teaching can effectively make up for the time and space limitations of offline teaching and the excessively broad online teaching, bring benefits from the perspectives of "inclusion, attraction and production", promote students' active learning, and practically improve learning stickiness. The research provides a new idea for creating online "golden" courses.

Objective:To explore the clinical application of the posterior tibial artery perforator flap with the great saphenous vein (GSV) in the treatment of severe degloving injury of the forearm.Methods:From June 2015 to October 2020, 5 patinets (4 males and 1 female, aged 20-46 years old, mean age 37 years old) were treated in the Department of Hand Surgery of Yantaishan Hospital in Yantai. Aposterior tibial artery perforator flap with GSV was used to repair the partial wound of the injured forearm, together with the establishment of venous circulation of dorsal hand for all 5 patients. All the patients suffered from severe forearm degloving injury. Of which, 3 accompanied with ulna radius fracture, 2 with ulnar and radial artery injury and 2 with blood supply insufficiency in the injured fingers. The sizes of soft-tissue defect were 26 cm×18 cm-32 cm×25 cm. The sizes of the posterior tibial artery perforator flap with GSV ranged from 12 cm×5 cm to 33 cm×6 cm. The anastomoses were performed on the perforating artery and the radial artery. The GSV was anastomosed with cephalic vein with bridging anastomosis to re-establish the venous circulation of dorsal hand. Combined anterolateral thigh flaps (ALTF) were used to repair the rest wound of injured limbs in 4 patients, and the combined pedicled abdominal flap was used in 1 patient. The donor site of calf flap was sutured directly, and the skin of upper limb was thinned into medium thick to cover the thigh flap donor site, which was packed with pressure dressing. Regular follow-up reviews were carried out by outpatient clinic, telephone, WeChat APP or home-visit after the operation to observe the survival of flaps, the swelling of the distal end of injured limb, functional recovery and healing at the donor site. Functional recovery was evaluated according to the Evaluation Standard of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association.Results:All the grafted flaps in 5 patients survived. Necrosis at epidermal edge occurred in 1 calf flap, and achieved secondary healing after dress changing for 4 weeks. There was neither arterial nor venous crisis in all flaps. The oedema of the hand disappeared within 4-8 weeks, with clear dermatoglyph. There was no obvious enlarged circumference of thumb and fingers. The follow-up was carried out for 8-20 months, with 11 months in average. The flaps were elastic in good colour, and full texture without pigmentation. The donor site of the calf flap showed a linear scar. No swollen was seen in the hands of the injured forearm and the feet of donor lower legs. The range of motion of phalangeal joints was good. Recovery of finger sensation achieved at S 4. The recovery of the sensation of posterior tibial artery perforator flap reached S 3 in 2 patients and S 2 in 3 patients. Assessment of the Upper Limb Function using the Standard Issued by the Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association rated excellent in 3 patients and good in 2 patients. Conclusion:The posterior tibial artery perforator flap with GSV has a reliable blood supply with a small damage to the donor site. This flap is ideal for repair of severe degloving injury of forearm and meanwhile to achieve the re-establishment of venous circulation in dorsal hand.

Objective:The surgical method and clinical efficacy was studied on the anterior lateral malleolar venous network grafting in repair of the defects of superficial palmar arch.Methods:From February 2015 to July 2021, 8 cases (6 males and 2 females; aged 32-44 years old, mean age at 39 years old) were treated in the Department of Hand Surgery of Yantaishan Hospital. Anterior lateral malleolar venous network was grafted to repair the defects of superficial palmar arch of the patients. The patients had different degrees of tendon damage, and injuries of nerve, deep palmar arch, common palmar digital artery or proper palmar digital artery. The length of the vessel defect was 6.0-10.0 cm. Blood supply insufficiency occurred in 1st-5th digits in 1 case, 2nd-4th fingers in 5 cases, and 2nd-5th fingers in 2 cases. The anterior lateral malleolar venous network was transferred to repair 3 broken ends of vessels in 5 cases, 4 broken ends in 1 case and 5 broken ends in 2 cases. The wound of hand was sutured directly in 2 cases. The emergency surgical repair of the wound of hand by transfer of ALTPF was performed in 2 patients, and elective ALTPF transfer in 3 cases. Forearm dorsi-ulnar flap transfer was performed in 1 case. The follow-up reviews were carried out via the outpatient clinic visit, telephone, WeChat interviews or home visits. The blood supply of the distal digit, skin sensation, TPD, the range of motion of the phalangeal joints were observed.Results:The results showed that all the digits and the grafted flaps survived. The follow-up was carried out for 10-53 months, with an average of 17.9 months. The functions of digit extension and flexion, finger opposition and thumb opposition were restored in 5 cases, and the patients returned back to former jobs. The finger flexion and thumb opposition were limited in 3 cases, and these cases participated in light physical work. The proprioception of the digits were recovered, and the TPD was 5-7 mm. Functional recovery was evaluated according to the Evaluation Standard of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association and rated as excellent in 5 cases and good in 3 cases. The donor sites of the foot showed a linear scar. There was no effect on the function and the shape of the donor site.Conclusion:The anterior lateral malleolar venous network grafting is an ideal method in repair of the defects of superficial palmar arch.
