OBJECTIVE To identify tortoiseshell glue and antler glue in Qichong zuogui granules, and determine the contents of 12 chemical components. METHODS Identification and content determination were performed by using liquid chromatography- tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method. The identification was performed on Hypersil GOLD column with a mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid solution (gradient elution); the electrospray ion source was used to scan in the positive ion multi-reaction detection mode. The mass charge ratio (m/z) 631.3→546.4, 631.3→921.4 was the detection ion pair for tortoiseshell glue, and the m/z 765.4→554.0, 765.4→733.0 was the detection ion pair for antler glue. The determination method for 12 chemical components was as follows: Accucore C18 column, methanol-0.1% formic acid as mobile phase (gradient elution); scanning range of positive and negative ions was m/z 100→1 000 with the electric spray ion source and single ion detection scanning mode. RESULTS Average retention times of the molecular ion peaks for characteristic peptide segments of tortoiseshell glue and antler glue were 6.28 and 6.77 min, respectively; the linear relationship of 12 chemical components was good within their respective concentration ranges, such as astragaloside Ⅳ, calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, calycosin, chlorogenic acid, ferulic acid, betaine, amygdalin, rutin, hydroxysafflor yellow A, hyperoside, loganin, cyasterone (r>0.999); RSDs for precision, stability (24 h) and reproducibility tests were all less than 5%. The average sample recovery rates ranged from 98.04% to 101.08%. The average contents of 12 components were 1.83, 25.73, 13.76,56.71, 23.80, 49.82, 807.49, 15.01, 317.02, 60.21, 202.71 and 17.70 μg/g, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In this study, tortoiseshell glue and antler glue in Qixiong zuogui granules are identified, and the contents of 12 chemical components therein are determined. This provides a reference for the quality control of this granule.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), as a treasure of the Chinese nation, plays a significant role in maintaining public health. In 2019, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council proposed for the first time the establishment of a TCM registration and evaluation evidence system that integrates TCM theory, "personal experience" and clinical trials (referred to as the "Three-in-One" System) to promote the inheritance and innovation of TCM. Subsequently, the National Medical Products Administration issued several guiding principles to advance the improvement and implementation of this system. Owing to the complexity of its implementation, there are still differing understandings within the TCM industry regarding the positioning of the "Three-in-One" Registration and Evaluation Evidence System, as well as the connotation and value orientation of the "personal experience." To address this, Academician WANG Qi, President of the TCM Association, China International Exchange and Promotion Association for Medical and Healthcare and TCM master, led a group of academicians, TCM masters, TCM pharmacology experts and clinical TCM experts to convene a "Seminar on Promoting the Implementation of the ′Three-in-One′ Registration and Evaluation Evidence System for Chinese Medicinals." Through extensive discussions, an expert consensus was formed, clarifying the different roles of the TCM theory, "personal experience" and clinical trials within the system. It was further emphasized that the "personal experience" is the core of this system, and its data should be derived from clinical practice scenarios. In the future, the improvement of this system will require collaborative efforts across multiple fields to promote the high-quality development of the Chinese medicinal industry.

Objective:To explore the effect of methamphetamine (MA) dependence on the attention of female youth, and to analyze the intervention effect of computer-based cognitive training on the attention of MA-dependent female youth.Method:From May to August 2021, a total of 64 MA-dependent female youths in abstinence period from a women's compulsory isolated drug rehabilitation center in Sichuan Province were selected as the MA group, and 53 ordinary female youths matched with their age and education level were selected as the normal control group.According to the matching principle of age, education level, and attention pre-test scores, the subjects in MA-dependent group were divided into MA-dependent intervention group( n=30)and MA-dependent waiting group( n=34). CogniPlus cognitive training system was used to train the attention of subjects in MA-dependent intervention group( n=30), while the subjects in MA-dependent waiting group( n=34) and normal control group did not receive training.The Vienna Test System was used to collect the attention scores of all subjects.SPSS 20.0 analysis software was used for data processing.Statistical analysis was performed using independent samples t test and paired samples t test. Results:The MA-dependent group had significantly longer endogenous alertness, temporary alertness, and concentration response time ((275.61±47.79)ms, (268.63±51.41)ms, (444.08±134.40)ms) compared with the normal control group ((247.02±34.09)ms, (237.60±46.04)ms, (355.15±44.37)ms) ( t=3.767, 3.405, 4.976; all P<0.05).

The post-test reaction time of temporary alertness and concentration in the MA-dependent intervention group ((251.67±38.06)ms, (352.03±65.70)ms)were shorter than those of the pre-test ((265.70±37.84)ms, (428.67±120.11)ms) ( t=2.179, 3.588; both P<0.05). The MA-dependent waiting group had a longer post-test reaction time of endogenous alertness and temporary alertness(323.18±83.28)ms, (302.74±82.75)ms) compared with the pre-test ((285.35±51.43)ms, (271.21±61.42)ms) ( t=-2.752, -2.664; both P<0.05) and the post-test reaction time of concentration ((402.76±74.34)ms) was shorter than that of the pre-test ((457.68±146.29)ms)( t=2.431, P<0.05). The MA-dependent intervention group had longer endogenous alertness, temporary alertness, and pre-test reaction time of concentration ((264.57±41.41)ms, (265.70±37.84)ms, (428.67±120.11)ms)compared with the normal control group( t=2.083, 2.841, 3.230; all P<0.05). The post-test of endogenous alertness ((264.10±38.98)ms) was longer than that of the normal control group ( t=2.082, P<0.05). Conclusion:The cognitive training based on the CogniPlus system has a certain effect on the attention maintenance or recovery of MA-dependent female youth.It can be used as an intervention measure for cognitive impairment of drug addicts and help them healthy return to society.

OBJECTIVE: To prepare Adriamycin hydrochloride (DOX) magnetic thermosensitive liposome (MTSL), investigate its physicochemical properties, magnetic effect and photothermal effect, so as to provide reference for tumor chemo- therapy and photodynamic/photothermal therapy. METHODS: Using DOX as model drug, TiO2@Fe3O4 as photosensitizers and magnetic materials, DOX-TiO2@Fe3O4-MTSL was prepared with membrane dispersion method. The morphology and dispersibility were observed; particle size and Zeta potential were detected; encapsulation efficiency of the liposome were determined by centrifugal ultrafiltration and HPLC. Its paramagnetism property was also detected by magnetometer. Compared with DOX solution, in vitro release behavior of the liposome was investigated by dialysis method, and the release curves at different temperatures (at 37, 43 ℃) were compared. The photothermal conversion effect of the liposome and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in human breast cancer MCF-7 cells were investigated by near infrared laser irradiation at 808 nm. RESULTS: Prepared DOX-TiO2@Fe3O4-MTSL was brown-black with good water dispersion, and was spherical in shape and uniform in size under electron microscopy. Average particle size was 250.6 nm; polydispersity index was 0.107; Zeta potential was (-7.76±3.41)mV; encapsulation efficiency was (92.3±3.2)%. Under the external magnetic field, the liposome could move in a directional direction and had obvious paramagnetism. Compared with DOX solution, the liposomes released slowly and showed obvious sustained- release characteristics. Compared with at 37 ℃, the drug release of liposome speeded up significantly at 43 ℃.With the increase of laser (808 nm) irradiation time, the temperature of the liposome kept rising, which had obvious photothermal conversion effect and could induce the increase of ROS in MCF-7 cells. CONCLUSIONS: DOX-TiO2@Fe3O4-MTSL is prepared succe- ssfully, which has uniform appearance, good physical and chemical properties. It has obvious paramagnetism sustained release effect and photothermal conversion efficiency, and can promote ROS production in MCF-7 cells under near infrared laser irradiation at 808 nm.
