Objective: To evaluate the effect of Li's catheter in cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) implantation. Methods: This study was a retrospective cohort study. Patients with indications for CRT implantation who visited the Department of Cardiology, Peking University People's Hospital from January 1, 2016 to January 1, 2022 were enrolled. Patients were divided into Li's catheter group (CRT implantation with Li's catheter) and control group (CRT implantation with the traditional method). The general clinical data of the patients were obtained through the electronic medical record system. Li's catheter is a new type of coronary sinus angiography balloon catheter independently developed by Dr. Li Xuebin (patent number: 201320413174.1). The primary outcome was the success rate of CRT device implantation, and the secondary outcomes included efficacy and safety parameters. Efficacy indicators included operation time, coronary sinus angiography time, left ventricular lead implantation time, X-ray exposure time, left ventricular lead threshold, and diaphragm stimulation. Safety outcomes included incidence of coronary sinus dissection, cardiac tamponade, and pericardial effusion. Results: A total of 170 patients were enrolled in this study, including 90 in Li's catheter group and 80 in control group. Age, male proportion of patients, proportion of patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, chronic renal insufficiency, New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification, left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, proportion of left bundle branch block, and preoperative QRS wave width were similar between the two groups (all P>0.05). In Li's catheter group, 34 cases (37.8%) implanted with CRT defibrillators, and 28 cases (35.0%) implanted with CRT defibrillators in control group, the difference was not statistically significant (P=0.710). The success rate of CRT device implantation in Li's catheter group was 100% (90/90), which was significantly higher than that in control group (93.8%, 75/80, P=0.023).The operation time was 57.0 (52.0, 62.3) minutes, the time to complete coronary sinus angiography was 8.0 (6.0, 9.0) minutes, and the time of left ventricular electrode implantation was 8.0 (7.0, 9.0) minutes in Li's catheter group, and was 91.3 (86.3, 97.0), 18.0 (16.0, 20.0), 25.0 (22.0, 27.7) minutes respectively in control group, all significantly shorter in Li's catheter group (all P<0.05). The exposure time of X-ray was 15.0 (14.0, 17.0) minutes in Li's catheter group, which was also significantly shorter than that in control group (32.5 (29.0, 36.0) minutes, P<0.001). There was no coronary sinus dissection and cardiac tamponade in Li's catheter group, and 1 patient (1.1%) had diaphragmatic stimulation in Li's catheter group. In control group, 6 patients (6.7%) had coronary sinus dissection, and 1 patient (1.1%) developed pericardial effusion, and 3 patients (3.3%) had diaphragmatic stimulation. The incidence of coronary sinus dissection in Li's catheter group was significantly lower than that in control group (P=0.011). The postoperative left ventricular thresholds in Li's catheter group and control group were similar (1.80 (1.60, 2.38) V/0.5 ms vs. 1.80 (1.60, 2.40) V/0.5 ms, P=0.120). Conclusions: Use of Li's catheter is associated with higher success rate of CRT implantation, short time of coronary sinus angiography and left ventricular electrode implantation, reduction of intraoperative X-ray exposure, and lower incidence of coronary vein dissection in this patient cohort.

Objective: For patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, superior vena cava isolation on the basis of pulmonary vein isolation may further improve the long-term success rate of radiofrequency ablation. We aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of superior vena cava isolation by high-power and short-duration (HPSD) ablation plus conventional radiofrequency ablation (RA) in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Methods: It was a prospective randomized controlled study. From January 1, 2019 to June 1, 2020, 180 patients who underwent radiofrequency ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in our center were consecutively screened. Patients were eligible if there was a trigger potential and the muscle sleeve length was greater than 3 cm. A total of 60 eligible patients were finally included and randomly divided into HPSD group (HPSD plus RA) and common power and duration (CPD) group (CPD plus RA) by random number table method (n=30 in each group). Efficacy was evaluated by ablation points, isolation time and ablation time. Safety was evaluated by the incidence of POP, cardiac tamponade, phrenic nerve injury, sinoatrial node injury and all-cause. Results: Superior vena cava isolation was achieved by 14 (13, 15) points in the HPSD group, which was significantly less than that in the CPD group (20(18, 22), P<0.001). The superior vena cava isolation time was 8 (7, 9) minutes in the HPSD group, which was significantly shorter than in the CPD group (17(14, 20) minutes, P<0.001). The average ablation time significantly shorter in HPSD group than in CPD group (78.0(71.1, 80.0) s vs. 200(167.5, 212.5)s, P<0.001). The average impedance drop was more significant in the HPSD group than in the CPD group (20.00(18.75, 21.00)Ω (and the percentage of impedance drop was 15%) vs. 12.00(11.75, 13.25)Ω (the percentage of impedance decrease was 12%), P<0.001). There was 1 POP (3.3%) in the HPSD group, and 3 POPs (10.0%) in the CPD group (P>0.05). There was no cardiac tamponade, phrenic nerve injury, sinoatrial node injury and death in both groups. Conclusions: HPSD technique for the isolation of superior vena cava is safe and effective in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation undergoing conventional radiofrequency ablation.

In the era of artificial intelligence based on big data， data acquisition， storage and processing are more convenient， which provides a guarantee for accelerating the development of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， but it has not yet achieved organic integration with TCM theory. Based on preliminary research on the supramolecular "Qi chromatography" theory of TCM， combined with the current development trend of artificial intelligence， this paper analyzed the biological intelligence attribute of the function of TCM supramolecular "imprinting template"， in order to provide reference for the development of TCM drug innovation. Both the human body and Chinese materia medica are giant complex supramolecular bodies evolved from natural organisms. According to the "imprinting template"， the "social molecules" are controlled step by step to form the meridians and viscera. The interaction produces the original theory of TCM， in which the self-recognition， self-assembly， self-organization and self-replication of the "imprinting template" reflect the "intelligence" function attributes：the human body uses the "imprinting template" to self-identify and sense the ingredients of TCM， and store the memory information database in the meridian and collateral organs in the form of "imprinting template"， and then pass the "imprinting template". The comparison， analysis， and judgment of imprinting templates guide the self-assembly， self-organization and self-replication among "molecular society"， synthesize biological machines， produce biological functions， repair or strengthen biological supramolecular bodies， and present the most basic "intelligence" attribute. This suggests that the theory of theory-method-prescription-medicine of TCM is the weak embodiment of biological "intelligence"， while the human brain function is the strong embodiment of biological "intelligence". Since the intelligent function of supramolecular "imprinting template" runs through the natural world， artificial intelligence that can characterize the strong "intelligence" form of the human brain will also be integrated into all aspects of the natural world， suggesting the development direction of "intelligence" functionalization of drug innovation mode.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on regional cerebral oxygen saturation and cerebral function in patients undergoing intracranial aneurysm embolization. METHODS ：Totally 44 patients undergoing intracranial aneurysm embolization in the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan University of TCM during Jun. 2017-Aug. 2019 were collected and randomly divided into group D （22 cases）and group C （22 cases）. Ten minutes before anesthesia induction ，group D was given intravenous injection of Dexmedetomidine hydrochloride injection 1 μg/kg；group C was given buffered normal saline 20 μL. Both groups were induced with Propofol emulsion injection+Midazolam injection+Fentanyl citrate injection+Cisatracurium besylate for injection. During the operation ，group D was given Dexmedetomidine hydrochloride injection 0.5 μg（/ kg·h）+Fentanyl citrate injection+Benzsulfosum atracurium for injection+Propofol emulsion injection to maintain anesthesia ；group C was continuously pumped with buffered normal saline 0.5 μg（/ kg·h）+Fentanyl citrate injection + Benzsulfosum aratracurium for injection Propofol emulsion injection to maintain anesthesia. Before anesthesia induction （T0）， immediately after anesthesia。induction （T1）， 1 min after tracheal intubation （T2）， immediately after operation finished （T3），immediately afte extubation（T4），the mean arterial pressure（MAP），heart rate 中国药房 2021年第32卷第7期 China Pharmacy 2021Vol. 32 No. 7 ·865· （HR），regional cerebral oxygen satur ation（rSO2）were observed in 2 groups. The levels of neuron specific enolase （NSE）and S100 β protein in serum were measured at T1，T3，6 h after operation （T6）. The recovery time ，intraoperative blood loss ， nitroglycerin amount and the occurrence of ADR were recorded. RESULTS ：MAP and HR of group D at T 2-T4 were significantly lower than those at T 0；MAP and HR of group C at T 2-T4 were significantly higher than those at T 0；the group D were significantly lower than the group C at the same period （P＜0.05）；there was no statistical significance in rSO 2 between 2 groups at T 0-T4（P＞ 0.05）. The levels of serum NSE and S 100β protein in 2 groups at T 3 were significantly higher than at T 1；those in 2 groups at T 6 were significantly lower than at T 3，but those of group D were significantly lower than the group C at T 3（P＜0.05）；there was no statistical significance in the levels of serum NSE or S 100β protein between 2 groups at T 1（P＞0.05）. The recovery time of anesthesia，the amount of nitroglycerin ，the incidence of tachycardia ，nausea and vomiting ，restlessness，shivering and cough in group D were significantly shorter or lower than group C （P＜0.05）；there was no statistical significance in the intraoperative blood loss between 2 groups（P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：Dexmedetomidine can maintain the hemodynamic stability of patients with intracranial aneurysm embolization during the perioperative period ，has little effect on rSO 2 and brain function ，and has good safety.

The application of modern scientific theories and technologies to explore the mechanism of Chinese medicine and its compounds is one of the key issues in realizing the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） research. Chinese medicine and its compounds produce comprehensive pharmacodynamics through multiple components acting on multiple targets， the core of clarifying the mechanism is to solve the key scientific problems of static correlation and dynamic integration verification between the components and the target network topology. At present， the effective method to clarify the mechanism of Chinese medicine and its compounds is to statically correlate the topological network of in vitro components and targets through network pharmacology. Although there are also component-target verification studies， they often learn from research idea of single component-single target， it is urgent to establish a quantitative integration and overall verification method that conforms to the characteristics of TCM. According to supramolecular Qi chromatography theory of TCM， the microscopic mechanism of interaction between Chinese medicine and human body is actually the two supramolecular host and object groups （the active ingredient group of Chinese medicine and the target group of human body） based on imprinted template， which shows the macroscopic properties and pharmacodynamics. Based on this， the author proposes to use supramolecular Qi chromatography theory as the guidance， combined with supramolecular chemistry， network dynamics， quantitative pharmacology and other methods to quantitatively integrate and verify the compositions and the target groups with imprinted template as the core predicted by network pharmacology， looking for the optimal quality markers， greatly reducing the difficulty of multi-component-multi-target experimental verification of Chinese medicine and its compounds.

Objective:To construct the targeting evaluation method of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） preparations based on supramolecular Qi chromatography theory， and to study the liver targeting effect of Bupleuri Radix on Pien Tze Huang. Method:The molecular connectivity index （MCI） was used to analyze the characteristics of imprinted template and liver targeting tendency of TCM mainly attributed to liver meridian and components of Pien Tze Huang， and combined with target dynamics and total statistical moment principle， aimed at the independent action characteristics of multi-component imprinted template of TCM， a method for evaluating the targeting of TCM preparations was established. Hepatoma rats in Pien Tze Huang group， Bupleuri Radix group， Pien Tze Huang+Bupleuri Radix group and blank group were tested and verified. Result:After the average value of MCI of TCM mainly attributed to liver meridian was deducted， the MCI similarity between Pien Tze Huang group and Bupleuri Radix group was 0.376 8， Pien Tze Huang+Bupleuri Radix group and Bupleuri Radix group was 0.988 2， so it was predicted that Bupleuri Radix could enhance the liver targeting of Pien Tze Huang. A system for evaluating the targeting of TCM compounds was established， including relative total uptake efficiency （RUE_T）， relative total concentration （RC_T）， relative imprinted tendency （RIT_T） and relative imprinted variance （RIV_T）. The RUE_T and RC_T of liver were the highest in all tissues （RUE_T=1.88>1，RC_T=2.30>1）， and the corresponding values of other tissues were all <1， indicating that Pien Tze Huang combined with Bupleuri Radix could increase its distribution in liver and enhance liver targeting. Except for plasma， the RIT_T and RIV_T of other tissues fluctuated around 1.0， indicating that targeted modification did not change imprinted tendency of Pien Tze Huang and had no significant effect on the types of components. Conclusion:Under the guidance of supramolecular Qi chromatography theory， a targeting evaluation parameter system can be established to characterize the multi-component imprinted effect of TCM preparations by MCI and total statistical moment parameters， so as to realize the evaluation of targeting of TCM preparations. The addition of Bupleuri Radix can increase the liver targeting of Pien Tze Huang.

Objective:The molecular connectivity index method and total statistical moment method were used to control the quality of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， and the stability and consistency of volatile components of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos were clarified. Method:Volatile oils in Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos from different producing areas was extracted for GC-MS determination with electron bombardment ion source， ion source temperature of 230 ℃， and detection range of m/z 35-650. Then National Institute of Standards and Technology （NIST） 05 and ChemicalBook database were used for qualitative analysis of these volatile components， the peak area normalization method was used for quantitative analysis， and the total statistical moment parameters and the zero-order， first-order， second-order， third-order molecular connectivity indexes of the components were calculated. Result:Number of peaks （RSD were 28.5%， 33.4%， respectively）， total zero-order moments （RSD were 55.5%， 128.9%， respectively） and total second-order moments （RSD were 15.3%， 21.5%， respectively） of 10 batches of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos were unstable， indicating that the types and contents of volatile components fluctuated sharply， but the total first-order moments （RSD were 7.5%， 8.8%， respectively） and the zero-order， first-order， second-order and third-order molecular connectivity indexes （RSD ranged from 8.1% to 10.3% and 4.2% to 5.5%， respectively） were relatively stable， indicating that the overall "imprinting template" of the components was similar. Statistical analysis of each parameter found that there were no significant differences in the number of peaks， total first-order moments and zero-order， first-order， second-order， third-order molecular connectivity indexes between volatile oils from Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos. Conclusion:Under the guidance of supramolecular gas evolution "imprinting template" theory， the molecular connectivity index method and total statistical moment parameters are used to jointly characterize the "imprinting template" of TCM components in vitro， which can control the stability and consistency of TCM quality.
