		                        			Chinese materia medica has a wide range of clinical applications, but it has many active ingredients with different physicochemical properties, and the target organs, action pathways and mechanisms for different ingredients to exert their efficacy are not the same. Therefore, it is difficult to design and develop a co-delivery system loading multiple components of Chinese materia medica to maximize the synergistic therapeutic efficiency. Based on the characteristics of effectiveness and functionality of active ingredients, the strategies for multi-component co-delivery of Chinese materia medica can be categorized into two types:firstly, based on the effectiveness of active ingredients, new carriers such as liposomes, nanoparticles can be constructed to load multi-components of Chinese materia medica. secondly, based on the functionality of some active ingredients of Chinese materia medica, they are employed in the construction of co-delivery system, which can give play to the dual characteristics of their own efficacy and preparation functions. In this paper, we summarized the relevant research progress of the above two types of multi-component co-delivery strategies, and mainly discussed the pharmaceutical functions of the active ingredients in co-delivery systems, in order to find a more suitable multi-component co-delivery strategy, promoting the design and development of new delivery systems of Chinese materia medica.

		                        			Objective:To explore the experience of elderly patients with diabetes after the first use of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (rt-CGM) through qualitative research.Methods:From January to December 2022, 20 elderly patients with diabetes who received rt-CGM in Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University were selected as the research object with objective sampling. Semi-structured, personalized, one-to-one in-depth interviews were used to collect data. The qualitative research content analysis method was used to summarize interview data, extract and explain the theme.Results:In this interview, a total of five themes were obtained. There were two themes before continuous glucose monitoring, namely high recognition of rt-CGM by patients and the expectation of understanding blood glucose fluctuations, which was the main purpose for patients to receive rt-CGM. After continuous glucose monitoring, there were three themes, namely, the negative emotions caused by abnormal blood glucose alarms during rt-CGM, disagreements among patients regarding the calibration method of measuring finger blood glucose four times a day during rt-CGM, and patients questioning the accuracy of rt-CGM data.Conclusions:Elderly patients with diabetes are willing to receive rt-CGM, but there are still many misunderstandings. Medical and nursing staff should develop targeted nursing strategies from various aspects such as improving patients ' psychological state, enhancing patients ' correct understanding of treatment, and strengthening standardized training for nurses, so as to increase patients ' treatment compliance and effectively control blood glucose.

		                        			Objective:To systematically evaluate the experience and needs of parental care for premature infants during the transition from hospital to home.Methods:Qualitative studies on the experience and needs of parental care for premature infants transitioning from hospital to home were electronically searched in Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, PsycINFO, CINAHL, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, China Biomedical Medline Disc, and WanFang Data. The search period was from the establishment of the database to June 3, 2023. The retrieved studies were evaluated using the quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of the Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center. The qualitative research results were integrated using the method of aggregation integration.Results:A total of 14 articles were included, 39 research results were extracted, categorized into nine categories. These categories were integrated into three synthesized results, namely the dependency period (parents of premature infants coexisted with joy and concern, and relied on professional support from medical and nursing staff), shock period (parents of premature infants developed negative emotions, faced dual difficulties in home care and role switching, and needed internal and external professional support from the family), adaptation period (parents of premature infants actively responded to changes, sought peer support, and transitioned to the "new normal" of life) .Conclusions:The transition from hospital to home is a dynamic process. During the transition process, parents of premature infants undergo complex emotional experiences and role transitions, requiring support from healthcare professionals, family members, and peers. Medical and nursing workers should pay attention to the psychological changes and diverse needs of parents, provide professional support and guidance to help them adapt to the role of parents, and promote the healthy growth of premature infants.

		                        			Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics, etiological composition, imaging features, and prognosis of adrenal metastases.Methods:This study is a retrospective case series that included 96 patients with pathologically confirmed adrenal metastases who were treated at West China Hospital, Sichuan University, from 2007 to 2017. Clinical features such as sex, age, tumor size, biochemical tests, imaging characteristics, postoperative pathology, treatment methods, and prognosis were collected and analyzed. The prognosis of patients and its influencing factors were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival curve and single-factor Cox risk proportional model.Results:Among the 96 included patients, 64 were male and 32 were female, with a median age of 60 years. There were 89 cases of unilateral adrenal metastases, five cases of bilateral metastases, and two cases with unspecified laterality. The median diameter of the metastases was 3.5 cm×2.9 cm, with an average CT value of 31 HU. Thirty-four cases of adrenal hormones were evaluated, and no abnormality was found.The primary tumor sites were as follows: lung ( n=36), kidney ( n=19), liver ( n=12), pancreas ( n=7), rectum ( n=3), stomach ( n=2), and one case each of tumor in the esophagus, skin, thyroid, left maxillary muscle, breast, bladder, cervix, chest wall, and gastrointestinal tract. There were three cases with unknown primary tumors. The most common pathological type was lung adenocarcinoma (20.8%, 20/96), followed by hepatocellular carcinoma (9.4%, 9/96) and high-grade invasive urothelial carcinoma of the kidney (8.3%, 8/96). Thirty-nine cases were diagnosed concurrently with the primary tumor, while 37 cases were diagnosed after the primary tumor, with a median interval of 15 months (range: 2-144 months). There was no significant correlation between the death risk of adrenal metastatic tumor patients and gender, age, and the size of the metastatic tumor (all P>0.05). There were 4 patients with radiotherapy and chemotherapy alone, 19 patients with surgery alone, and 6 patients with combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The median overall survival was 1, 3, and 7 years, respectively. Conclusions:Adrenal metastases were mostly diagnosed at the same time as the primary tumor or within 15 months after the diagnosis of the primary tumor. Unilateral metastasis is common. The lungs are the most common primary lesion, followed by the kidney and liver. CT is the preferred method for the diagnosis of adrenal metastases, and the plain CT value is more than 30 HU. The overall prognosis of adrenal metastases is poor. The prognosis was better for patients who underwent surgery combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy than those who received only surgery or radiotherapy and chemotherapy alone.

		                        			ObjectiveTo establish an ischemia-reperfusion model in cynomolgus macaques and to analyse the effects of edaravone intervention. MethodsA total of fifteen adult male cynomolgus macaques were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation (Sham group, n=3), ischemia-reperfusion model (Model group, n=6) and edaravone treatment (Edaravone group, n=6). Ischemic-reperfusion model of cynomolgus macaques was established by clamping the M1 branch of the left cerebral artery for 1 h. After 2 h of reperfusion, the animals in Edaravone group were injected with 0.5 mg/kg edaravone intravenously for intervention treatment, while the animals in Sham and Model groups were injected with an equal volume of normal saline intravenously, twice a day, from the 2nd to 7th day. The behavioral video recordings, clinical observations and neurological deficit scores of cynomolgus macaques were obtained, and brain edema volume and cerebral ischemia volume were statistically analyzed. ResultsCompared with the Sham group, the animals in Model group showed typical symptoms of ischemic stroke, with a significant increase in the neurological deficit score, the volumes of edema and infarct of brain tissue (all P<0.01). Compared with Model group, the neurological deficit score, the volumes of edema and infarct of brain tissue were significantly reduced in Edaravone group (all P<0.05). ConclusionAn animal model of ischemia-reperfusion in cynomolgus macaques was successfully established, and edaravone was confirmed to alleviate the damage caused by ischemia-reperfusion.
