		                        			ObjectiveTo compare the contents and relative molecular weight distributions of proteins and polypeptides in Naoxuekang dropping pills, Huoxue Tongmai capsules and Maixuekang capsules of Hirudo single medicinal preparations, to evaluate the in vitro anticoagulant, antiplatelet and fibrinolytic activities of the three preparations, and to investigate the effects of temperature, pH and digestive enzymes on the anticoagulant activities of the three preparations. MethodsThe contents of soluble proteins and polypeptides in the three preparations were determined by bicinchoninic acid assay(BCA) and Bradford method, and the relative molecular weight distributions of the three preparations were determined by electrophoresis combined with gel chromatography. The antithrombin activity of the three preparations was evaluated by fibrinogen-thrombin time(Fibg-TT) method, and their anticoagulant activities were further assessed by the elongations of activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT), prothrombin time(PT) and thrombin time(TT). The antiplatelet aggregation activities of the three preparations were measured by turbidimetry and the fibrinolytic activities were measured by fibrin plate method. Relative TT was used as index to investigate the effects of temperature, pH and digestive enzyme buffer on anticoagulant activities of the three preparations. ResultsAt the lowest single dosage, the contents of proteins and polypeptides were in the order of Maixuekang capsules>Huoxue Tongmai capsules>Naoxuekang dropping pills. Both Huoxue Tongmai capsules and Maixuekang capsules had 11 electrophoretic bands between 4.0 kDa and 90 kDa, the bands of Maixuekang capsules were more clear in the range of >25 kDa, and there was 1 obvious band at 14 kDa for the two capsules. Huoxue Tongmai capsules had one specific band at 9.0 kDa and Maixuekang capsules had one specific band at 48.0 kDa. Naoxuekang dropping pills only had 2 electrophoretic bands at 6.5 kDa and 8.5 kDa, primarily containing peptides below 2 kDa, most of which were oligopeptides. The anticoagulant activity concentrations of the three preparations exhibited a certain dose-dependent effect. At the lowest single dosage, The anticoagulant activity concentrations were ranked as Naoxuekang dropping pills>Huoxue Tongmai capsules>Maixuekang capsules. The prolongation effect of the three preparations on coagulation time was dose-dependent. At the same concentration, the prolongation effect of Naoxuekang dropping pills and Huoxue Tongmai capsules was APTT prolongation rate>TT prolongation rate>PT prolongation rate, whereas for Maixuekang capsules, the sequence was TT prolongation rate>APTT prolongation rate>PT lengthening rate. At the single minimum dosage, the order of APTT prolongation rate was Maixuekang capsules>Huoxue Tongmai capsules≈Naoxuekang dropping pills, the order of PT prolongation rate was Naoxuekang dropping pills≈Maixuekang capsules>Huoxue Tongmai capsules, and the order of TT prolongation rate was Maixuekang capsules>Huoxue Tongmai capsules>Naoxuekang dropping pills. The three preparations showed dose-dependent effects on platelet aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate(ADP) and arachidonic acid(AA), and the effect induced by ADP was stronger than that induced by AA. The anti-platelet aggregation effect of Naoxuekang dropping pills was significantly stronger than that of Maixuekang capsules(P<0.01), whereas Huoxue Tongmai capsules had the effect of promoting platelet aggregation. None of the three preparations had the ability to dissolve fibrin. The anticoagulant activity of Naoxuekang dropping pills was least affected by heating, while the activities of the two capsules decreased significantly within 5 min above 80 ℃, and continued to decrease within 2 h. Compared with pure water, the anticoagulant activities of the three preparations could be increased by 1-3 times under strong acidity(pH 1-3). In the pepsin buffer, the anticoagulant activity of Naoxuekang dropping pills could be increased by 1-3 times, while the anticoagulant activities of Huoxue Tongmai capsules and Maxuekang capsules were significantly decreased, the lowest levels were about 60% and 20%, respectively. In trypsin buffer, the anticoagulant activities of Naoxuekang dropping pills, Huoxue Tongmai capsules and Maixuekang capsules decreased significantly, and the lowest levels decreased to about 41%, 41% and 35%, respectively. ConclusionThe contents of proteins and polypeptides and relative molecular weights of the preparations derived from lyophilized fresh Hirudo powder, dried Hirudo powder and reflux extract of Hirudo decrease sequentially, and the anticoagulant activity decrease gradually, but the anticoagulant pathway is different. And the anti-platelet aggregation activity of the reflux extract is significantly enhanced. The heat resistance and gastrointestinal stability of the three preparations increase successively, and the first two are suitable for enteric-soluble preparations, while the latter is suitable for routine oral administration. The above results can provide data reference for the rationality of different preparation methods, active substances, pharmacodynamics and mechanism of Hirudo preparations.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of acute stent implantation during endovascular treatment for patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out on 46 patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis who received endovascular treatment at the Strategic Support Force Medical Center from January 2015 to August 2022. Twenty-seven patients underwent balloon angioplasty alone and 19 patients underwent acute stent implantation. The baseline characteristics, modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI) score of the responsible vessels, modified Rankin scale (mRS) score 90 days after operation, incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality of the two groups were evaluated.Results:The proportion of effective recanalization of the offending vessels (mTICI≥2b) in the acute stenting group was slightly higher than that in the balloon angioplasty group (16/19 vs. 81.5%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Besides, there was no significant difference in the median of mRS between the acute stenting group [3.0(0, 4.0)] and the balloon angioplasty group [4.0(1.0, 5.0)] 90 days after operation ( P>0.05). In terms of safety, the incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality were comparable between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The effect of acute stent implantation during endovascular treatment for patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis is not inferior to that of balloon angioplasty, and it does not increase the risk of intracranial bleeding complications.

		                        			OBJECTIVE To characterize paclitaxel nanoparticles (PTX-PLGA-NPs) and evaluate their in vitro inhibitory effect on Lewis lung cancer cells. METHODS The PTX-PLGA-NPs prepared by the emulsion-solvent evaporation method were characterized in terms of particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), Zeta potential, microscopic morphology, encapsulation efficiency, drug loading, ultraviolet-visible absorption characteristics and stability. Using mouse Lewis lung cancer cells as the subjects and paclitaxel reference substance as the control, the cytotoxicity and in vitro killing activity of PTX-PLGA-NPs were detected using CCK-8 method and Calcein-AM/PI double staining method, respectively. The effects of PTX-PLGA-NPs on cell apoptosis and cell cycle were assessed by Annexin Ⅴ-FITC/PI staining method and PI staining method, respectively. RESULTS PTX-PLGA-NPs were spherical with an average particle size of (172.03±0.95) nm, PDI of 0.098±0.012, and Zeta potential of (-1.76±0.02) mV. The encapsulation efficiency and drug loading were (52.32±0.66)% and (7.07±0.18)%, respectively, and the ultraviolet-visible absorption characteristics were not affected by the carrier polylactic-co-glycolic acid. When stored in the dark at 4 °C for 7 days, no significant change was noted in particle size, and the average PDI (after 1, 2, 4 and 7 days of storage) was under 0.3. Compared with the paclitaxel reference substance group, the PTX-PLGA-NPs group had more cells in a state of death, the survival rate (at the PTX concentration of 11.2 μg/mL) was significantly decreased, and both the apoptosis rate and the proportion of G2 phase cells were significantly increased (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The prepared PTX-PLGA-NPs indicate homogeneity in particle size, uniform dispersion, stable properties, and stronger in vitro killing effect on lung cancer cells than PTX.

		                        			 Objective:
		                        			Previous research has explored a variety of mental disorders associated with Internet Gaming Disoder (IGD) and Social Media Addiction (SMA). To date, few studies focused on the network characteristics and investigated mood and sleep symptoms across SMA and IGD of adolescence at a group-specific level. This study aims to identify different characteristics of IGD and SMA and further determine the group-specific psychopathology process among adolescents. 
		                        		
		                        			Methods:
		                        			We conducted a cross-sectional study to recruit a cohort of 7,246 adolescents who were scored passing the cutoff point of Internet Gaming Disorder Scale-Short Form and Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale, as grouped in IGD and SMA, or otherwise into the control group. Patient Health Questionnaire-9, Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index were assessed for the current study, and all assessed items were investigated using network analysis. 
		                        		
		                        			Results:
		                        			Based on the analytical procedure, the participants were divided into three groups, the IGD group (n=789), SMA group (n=713) and control group (n=5,744). The edge weight bootstrapping analysis shows that different groups of networks reach certain accuracy, and the network structures of the three groups are statistically different (pcontrol-IGD=0.004, pcontrol-SMA<0.001, pIGD-SMA<0.001). The core symptom of SMA is “feeling down, depressed, or hopeless”, while IGD is “feeling tired or having little energy”. 
		                        		
		                        			Conclusion
		                        			Although IGD and SMA are both subtypes of internet addiction, the psychopathology processes of IGD and SMA are different. When dealing with IGD and SMA, different symptoms should be addressed.

		                        			ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Shouwuwan on the synaptic plasticity of hippocampal neurons in the rat model of D-galactose-induced aging via the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway. MethodA total of 50 male SPF-grade SD rats were randomized into normal group, model group, vitamin E (0.018 g·kg-1) group, and low- and high-dose (1.08,2.16 g·kg-1, respectively) Shouwuwan groups. Except the normal group, the other four groups were treated with D-galactose (120 mg·kg-1) for the modeling of aging. The rats were simultaneously administrated with corresponding agents by gavage. After six weeks of modeling, Morris water maze test was carried out to examine the behavioral changes. The whole brain and hippocampus samples were collected. The expression of postsynaptic density protein-95 (PSD-95) and synaptophysin (SYN) in the hippocampus was detected by immunohistochemistry. Golgi staining was employed to observe the changes in the morphology and function of neurons. Western blot and Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) were respectively employed to determine the mRNA and protein levels of mTOR, phosphorylated (p)-mTOR, p70 ribosome protein S6 kinase (p70S6K), phosphorylated (p)-p70S6K, eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E-binding protein 2 (4EBP2), and phosphorylated (p)-4EBP2 in the hippocampus. ResultCompared with the normal group, the model group showed slow swimming (P<0.01), extended total swimming distance (P<0.05), prolonged latency (P<0.01), and decreased crossing number (P<0.01). The modeling inhibited the expression of PSD-95 and SYN in the CA1 region of the hippocampus (P<0.01), with the weakest staining effect and the smallest region, decreased the intersections of hippocampal neuron dendrites with concentric circles at the concentric distance of 100, 140, 180, and 200 μm from the cell body (P<0.01), and reduced the length and density of dendritic spine (P<0.01). In addition, the modeling up-regulated the mRNA levels of mTOR and p70S6K and the protein levels of p-mTOR and p-p70S6K (P<0.01) and down-regulated the mRNA level of 4EBP2 and the protein levels of 4EBP2 and p-4EBP2 (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, low- and high-dose Shouwuwan increased the average swimming speed (P<0.01), shortened the latency (P<0.01), increased the crossing number (P<0.01), promoted the expression of PSD-95 and SYN in the hippocampal CA1 region (P<0.01), increased the intersections between hippocampal neuronal dendrites and concentric circles at the concentric distance of 100, 140, 180,200 μm from the cell body (P<0.01), and increased the number, length, and density of dendritic spine (P<0.01). Furthermore, Shouwuwan down-regulated the protein levels of p-mTOR and p-p70S6K (P<0.01), up-regulated the protein levels of 4EBP2 and p-4EBP2 (P<0.05,P<0.01), down-regulated the mRNA levels of mTOR and p70S6K (P<0.01), and up-regulated the mRNA level of 4EBP2 (P<0.01). ConclusionShouwuwan can improve the learning and memory ability of rats exposed to D-galactose, promote the expression of proteins associated with synaptic plasticity, improve the morphology of neurons, repair neural function, reduce neuronal apoptosis, and inhibit mTOR signaling pathway to delay brain aging.

		                        			Objective:To compare the effects of five different types of videolaryngoscopes in patients with a simulated difficult airway.Methods:575 patients who needed endotracheal intubation in Nanjing Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from May 2021 to September 2021 were randomly divided into 5 groups [UE videolaryngoscope group (U group), GlideScope videolaryngoscope group (G group), C-MAC videolaryngoscope group (C group), Airtraq videolaryngoscope group (A group) and A. P.advance videolaryngoscope group (AP group)], with 115 patients in each group. They all wore cervical collar to simulate difficult airway. The main observation index was the success rate of first endotracheal intubation. Secondary observation indicators included overall success rate, laryngoscope exposure field, intubation time, operator′s subjective score, cause of failure, adverse events, and complications of intubation.Results:The patients′ mouth opening degree was reduced from (46±6)mm to (24±4)mm ( P<0.05) after wearing the cervical collar; The success rate of the first endotracheal intubation were 96%(UE), 92%(C-MAC), 86%(GlideScope), 85%(Airtraq), and 60%(AP.Advance) respectively, with statistically significant difference ( P<0.05); Compared with AP group and G group, the incidence of soft tissue injury or bleeding in U group and C group were lower ( P<0.05); There were significant difference in the overall success rate of videolaryngoscopes, laryngoscope visual field exposure, intubation time, the subjective score of the operator and adverse events ( P<0.05); There was no significant difference in the complications of intubation among the groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Among 575 patients with a simulated difficult airway with limited neck mobility and limited mouth opening, there were significant differences in the use of five videolaryngoscopes. Among them, UE video laryngoscope had the highest first intubation success rate and lowest tissue trauma rate, C-MAC video laryngoscope, GlideScope video laryngoscope and Airtraq video laryngoscope followed in performance, while A. P.Advance video laryngoscope performed the worst.
