ObjectiveTo explore the quantity-quality transfer process of medicinal materials， decoction pieces and standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（Haliotis discus hannai） by analyzing the physical phase and compositional changes， so as to provide references for the effective control of its quality. MethodsA total of 20 batches of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai） from different habitats were collected and prepared into corresponding calcined products and standard decoction， and the content of CaCO₃ of the three samples were determined and the extract yield and transfer rate of CaCO₃ were calculated. The changes in elemental composition and their relative contents were investigated by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry（XRF）， X-ray diffraction（XRD） was used to study the changes in the phase compositions of the three samples and to establish their respective XRD specific chromatogram. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry（FTIR） was used to study the changes in the chemical composition and content changes of the three samples and to establish their respective FTIR specific chromatogram， while combining hierarchical cluster analysis（HCA）， principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA） to find the common and differential characteristics， in order to explore the quantity-quality transfer relationship in the preparation process of standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai）. ResultsThe CaCO₃ contents of the 20 batches of medicinal materials， decoction pieces and standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai） were 93.87%-98.95%， 96.02%-99.97% and 38.29%-51.96%， respectively， and the extract yield of standard decoction was 1.71%-2.37%， and the CaCO₃ transfer rate of decoction pieces-standard decoction was 0.68%-1.27%. XRF results showed that the elemental species and their relative contents contained in Haliotidis Concha and its calcined products had a high degree of similarity， and although there was no obvious difference in the elemental species contained in decoction pieces and standard decoction， the difference in the relative contents was obvious， which was mainly reflected in the decrease of the relative content of element Ca and the increase of the relative content of element Na. XRD results showed that Haliotidis Concha mainly contained CaCO₃ of aragonite and calcite， while calcined Haliotidis Concha only contained CaCO₃ of calcite， and standard decoction mainly contained CaCO₃ of calcite and Na₂CO₃ of natrite. FTIR results showed that there were internal vibrations of O-H， C-H， C=O， HCO₃^- and CO₃^2- groups in Haliotidis Concha， while O-H， HCO₃^- and CO₃^2- groups existed in the calcined products and standard decoction. ConclusionThe changes of Haliotidis Concha and calcined Haliotidis Concha are mainly the increase of CaCO₃ content， the transformation of CaCO₃ aragonite crystal form to calcite crystal form and the absence of organic components after calcination， and the changes of calcined products and standard decoction are mainly the decrease of CaCO₃ content and the increase of Na₂CO₃ relative content. The method established in the study is applicable to the quality control of the shellfish medicines-decoction pieces- standard decoction， which provides a new idea for the study of quality control of dispensing granules of shellfish medicines.

BACKGROUND:Bone wax is a filler that can be used for bone hemostasis.Although modification of bone wax formulations is attempted worldwide,its inertness is still the main challenge today.There is an urgent clinical need to develop novel orthopedic hemostatic materials with hemostasis,osteogenesis and antibacterial properties. OBJECTIVE:To review the development of orthopedic hemostatic materials including bone wax and its substitutes. METHODS:PubMed,Web of Science,WanFang,CNKI and VIP databases were searched for literature related to bone wax,hemostatic materials,and research progress of orthopedic hemostatic materials,and 136 articles were selected for inclusion in the review by reading the abstracts of the articles in the initial screening. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:To replace traditional bone wax,researchers have developed various orthopedic hemostatic materials based on the needs of practical scenarios such as hemostasis and osteogenesis.However,relevant studies mostly focus on basic physical and chemical and performance tests,lack a systematic evaluation system,and lack sufficient reports of large animal experiments and clinical trials.Therefore,bone wax is still a recognized orthopedic hemostatic material at present.The fundamental reason is that the design of existing materials cannot timely meet the new needs of intraoperative hemostasis,postoperative osteogenesis and clinical practice.In the future,the structure,composition and function of existing hemostatic and osteogenic materials need to be integrated and redesigned to meet the increasing demand for hemostatic and osteogenic materials.

Fluorescent surgical navigation has been widely used in liver and biliary surgery, including imaging of tumors, bile ducts, blood vessels, and other small lesions that cannot be identified by traditional methods. This helps surgeons obtain visual information during surgery and facilitates intraoperative decision-making. However, there are still many controversies in pancreatic tumor surgery, which is also the reason for the limited application of this technology in the pancreas at present. This article first summarizes the current status of the application of this technology in pancreatic tumor surgery. Based on our own experiences, we summarize the current problems of fluorescence imaging technology and propose corresponding optimization strategies. Finally, we look forward to its application prospects, hoping to provide a reference for the future application of fluorescence imaging technology in pancreatic tumors.

Objective To systematic evaluate the effectiveness and safety of driving pressure-guided fixed positive end-expiratory pressure(PEEP)titration in intraoperative mechanical ventilation.Methods PubMed,Web of Science,the Cochrane Library,Embase,CNKI,Wanfang and VIP databases were searched for collect randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of PEEP titration guided by driving pressure in intraoperative mechanical ventilation from inception to November 8,2023.After two researchers independently screened the literature,extracted data,and evaluated the risk of bias of the included studies,the meta-analysis was conducted by Rev-Man 5.4 software.Results Nineteen studies with a total of 2 906 patients were included.There were 1 440 patients in the study group with the lung protective ventilation strategy guided by PEEP titration,and 1 466 patients in the control group with the traditional lung protective ventilation strategy.Compared with the con-trol group,the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications(PPCs)in the study group was lower in the non-thoracic surgery(RR=0.53,95%CI:0.43-0.65,P<0.001),but there was no statistical difference in the incidence of PPCS in the thoracic surgery(RR=0.89,95%CI:0.78-1.02,P=0.09).Compared with the control group,the intraoperative lung compliance was increased(MD= 6.90 L/cmH2O,95%CI:5.80-7.99,P<0.001),and the length of hospital stay was shortened in the study group(MD=-0.27 d,95%CI:-0.43 to-0.12,P<0.001),while there was no significant difference in intraoperative mean arterial pres-sure(MAP)between the two groups(MD=0.36 mmHg,95%CI:-1.30 to 2.01,P=0.67).Conclusion Com-pared with the traditional lung protective ventilation,driving pressure-guided PEEP titration ventilation can im-prove intraoperative lung compliance,reduce the incidence of PPCs in non-thoracic surgery,shorten the length of hospital stay,and does not increase the risk of hemodynamic disturbances in patients undergoing surgery.

Objective To provide a theoretical basis for radiation health supervision through an analysis of the situation of computed tomography (CT) equipment quality control and CT room radiological protection in Guangdong Province, China in recent years. Methods We collected the data of 392 times of CT quality control and radiological protection testing by a third-party radiological health technical service institution in Guangdong Province from 2019 to 2021. We analyzed the levels of CT-owning hospitals, CT manufacturers, CT quality control test results, and the pass rate of radiation protection tests. Results The examined CT scanners were from different levels of hospitals in Guangdong Province, and were manufactured by nine major CT equipment manufacturers at home and abroad. The pass rate of CT room radiological protection was 99.88%, and the ambient dose equivalent rates of five monitoring points exceeded the limit, with four at the control room door and one at the shield wall of the room. The overall pass rate of CT equipment quality control was 99.49%, and the non-conforming parameters were the accuracy of positioning light and the deviation of reconstructed slice thickness. Conclusion In recent years, CT equipment quality control and room radiation protection in Guangdong Province have been at a high level.

italic>Artemisia argyi is a traditional Chinese medicine in China, which is used as medicine with its leaves. The leaves of A. argyi mainly contain flavonoids, phenolic acids, volatile oils and other compounds, and have a variety of pharmacological activities. AP2/ERF transcription factors are abundant in plants and are mainly involved in plant growth and development, abiotic stress response and secondary metabolite biosynthesis regulation. However, there are few reports on the AP2/ERF gene family and its functions in A. argyi. In this study, we systematically identified the AP2/ERF gene family in A. argyi genome, and analyzed its phylogenetic tree, protein physicochemical properties, subcellular localization, conserved motifs, promoter elements, and expression patterns. The results showed that a total of 204 AP2/ERF transcription factors were identified in A. argyi genome, encoding proteins consisting of 88-483 amino acids with a relative molecular mass of 10-52.94 kDa and a theoretical isoelectric point of 4.62-9.88. Subcellular prediction showed that the majority of AP2/ERFs were located in the nucleus, cytoplasm, and the minority of them is located in the membrane and chloroplasts. According to the Arabidopsis AP2/ERF family classification, A. argyi AP2/ERF proteins were divided into four subfamilies: Soloist, AP2, ERF (B3, B4, B5, B6), and DREB (A1, A2, A4, A5, A6), among which DREB family accounted for the largest proportion, and the same subfamily had similar conserved motifs. cis-Acting element analysis showed that AP2/ERF promoters have a large number of elements responding to light and abiotic stress. Expression pattern analysis showed that most of the genes of the AP2/ERF family were dominantly expressed mainly in roots and stems, of which 19 were dominantly expressed in leaves, 77 would be induced to be expressed by methyl jasmonate, of which 16 genes were both dominantly expressed in leaves and induced to be expressed by methyl jasmonate, and these AP2/ERF genes may be the key regulatory genes for the synthesis of active ingredients in A. argyi leaves.This study lays the foundation for the functional study of AP2/ERF family genes and their regulating roles in the active components biosynthesis in A. argyi leaves.

Background/Aims: Four-week treatment of linvencorvir (RO7049389) was generally safe and well tolerated, and showed anti-viral activity in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. This study evaluated the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of 48-week treatment with linvencorvir plus standard of care (SoC) in CHB patients. Methods: This was a multicentre, non-randomized, non-controlled, open-label phase 2 study enrolling three cohorts: nucleos(t)ide analogue (NUC)-suppressed patients received linvencorvir plus NUC (Cohort A, n=32); treatment-naïve patients received linvencorvir plus NUC without (Cohort B, n=10) or with (Cohort C, n=30) pegylated interferon-α (Peg-IFN-α). Treatment duration was 48 weeks, followed by NUC alone for 24 weeks. Results: 68 patients completed the study. No patient achieved functional cure (sustained HBsAg loss and unquantifiable HBV DNA). By Week 48, 89% of treatment-naïve patients (10/10 Cohort B; 24/28 Cohort C) reached unquantifiable HBV DNA. Unquantifiable HBV RNA was achieved in 92% of patients with quantifiable baseline HBV RNA (14/15 Cohort A, 8/8 Cohort B, 22/25 Cohort C) at Week 48 along with partially sustained HBV RNA responses in treatment-naïve patients during follow-up period. Pronounced reductions in HBeAg and HBcrAg were observed in treatment-naïve patients, while HBsAg decline was only observed in Cohort C. Most adverse events were grade 1–2, and no linvencorvir-related serious adverse events were reported. Conclusions 48-week linvencorvir plus SoC was generally safe and well tolerated, and resulted in potent HBV DNA and RNA suppression. However, 48-week linvencorvir plus NUC with or without Peg-IFN did not result in the achievement of functional cure in any patient.
