Pinellia ternata, belonging to the Pinellia genus within the Araceae family, is a medicinal plant due to its tubers. There are severe issues with unclear germplasm and mixed varieties in its cultivation, necessitating urgent new variety protection efforts. The distinctness, uniformity, and stability (DUS) testing of the plant variety is the basis for protecting new plant varieties, and the DUS test guidelines are the technical basis for DUS testing. To develop the DUS test guidelines for P. ternata, agronomic traits of 229 germplasm of P. ternata were observed and measured during its two growth stages over the years, and each character was graded and described. A total of 38 traits were selected as the test traits of the DUS test guideline for P. ternata. There were three plant traits, 19 leaf traits, six flower traits, two fruit traits, two tuber traits, five bulbil traits, and one ploidy trait. These traits could be divided into 22 quality characters, 12 quantitative characters, and four pseudo-quantitative characters, as well as seven groups, including plants, leaves, flowers, fruit, tubers, bulbils, and ploidy. By searching for standard traits, 10 standard varieties were ultimately determined. Preparing these guidelines will have great significance for reviewing and protecting P. ternata varieties, safeguarding breeders' rights, and promoting the development of the P. ternata industry.

Accurate classification of the acetabular injuries and appropriate treatment plan are great challenges for orthopedic surgeons because of the irregular anatomical structure of the acetabulum and aggregation of important vessels and nerves around it. Letournel-Judet classification system has been widely applied to classify acetabular fractures. However, there are several limitations, including incomplete inclusion of fracture types, difficulty in understanding and insufficient guidance for surgical treatment, etc. Serious complications such as traumatic arthritis are common due to wrong classification and diagnosis and improper selection of surgical strategy, which brings a heavy burden to the society and families. Three-column classification, based on anatomic characteristics, has advantages of containing more fracture types and being easy to understand, etc. To solve the problems existing in the diagnosis and treatment process based on Letournel-Judet classification, achieve accurate diagnosis and treatment of patients with acetabular fractures, and obtain satisfactory prognosis, the Orthopedic Trauma Emergency Center of Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University and the Trauma Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Orthopedic Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate the Expert consensus on the accurate diagnosis and treatment of acetabular fractures based on three-column classification ( version 2023) in terms of principles of evidence-based medicine. Based on the three-column classification, 15 recommendations were proposed, covering the diagnosis, treatment, complication prevention and management, etc, so as to provide reference for accurate diagnosis and treatment of acetabular fractures.

ObjectiveTo study the changes of dry matter accumulation, mineral element absorption and medicinal component accumulation in Belamcanda chinensis and to provide a theoretical basis for fertilization in the standardized cultivation of B. chinensis. MethodDuring the two-year growth period of B. chinensis, the samples were collected at 30-day intervals from day 90 after sowing for the measurement of dry matter accumulation and mineral element content in different organs as well as the flavonoid content in the rhizome. ResultAccording to the accumulation of dry matter in different organs, the two-year growth period of B. chinensis was divided into seven stages: seedling stage (before July in the first year), first-year vegetative growth stage (August to October in the first year), first-year late growth stage (November to January of the second year), re-growth stage (February to March in the second year), second-year vegetative growth stage (April to May in the second year), reproductive growth stage (June to October in the second year), second-year late growth stage (November of the second year to January of the third year). During the whole growth period, the late growth stage of each year witnessed the expansion of the rhizome, and the accumulation of dry matter of the whole plant peaked after the reproductive growth stage. The content of flavonoids in the rhizome varied greatly among different stages. Specifically, the content of mangiferin, tectorigenin and irigenin was higher in the second-year vegetative growth stage, and that of tectoridin and iridin was higher in the first-year late growth stage and the second-year late growth stage. The content of irisflorentin was higher in the second-year vegetative growth stage and the second-year late growth stage than that in other stages. The total content of six flavonoids peaked in the second-year vegetative growth stage (April in the second year). The correlation analysis showed that all the nine mineral elements had different degrees of positive correlations with tectorigenin, irigenin and irisflorentin. ConclusionIn the first year, B. chinensis presents slow dry matter accumulation and low demand for fertilizer, so the application of base fertilizer can be reduced. In the second year, especially after the reproductive growth, B. chinensis demands high fertilizer, so nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers and other micronutrients should be applied as early as possible. In addition, the rhizome expands in October to November of the first year and November to December of the second year, when the supply of nitrogen and potassium to the rhizome should be ensured or beneficial elements should be supplemented to improve the quality of B. chinensis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of different nitrogen application rates on the growth, yield and quality of Belamcanda chinensis and to provide a theoretical basis for the quality and production efficiency improvement of B. chinensis. MethodA field experiment was carried out on the basis of 120 kg·hm-2 phosphate and potassium fertilizers, with five nitrogen fertilizer treatments: 0 (N0), 60 (N60), 120 (N120), 180 (N180) and 240 (N240) kg·hm-2. The effects of different nitrogen application rates on the agronomic traits, yield, mineral element accumulation and flavonoid content of B. chinensis were studied. ResultApplication of nitrogen fertilizer was beneficial to dry matter accumulation and significantly increased the yield of rhizome. After the application of nitrogen fertilizer, the yield of rhizome increased by 48.75%-86.62%. The nitrogen application at 60-180 kg·hm-2 increased the active components such as tectoridin, iridin and irisflorentin, while it was not conducive to the accumulation of tectorigenin and irigenin in the rhizome. The accumulation of Mn and Fe reached the highest when the nitrogen application rate was 120 and 60 kg·hm-2, respectively. The principal component analysis of active component content showed that the comprehensive score was ranked as N180>N120>N60>N240>N0. The correlation analysis indicated that the tectoridin content had a positive correlation with N accumulation and a negative correlation with Ca accumulation in B. chinensis. The content of tectorigenin was negatively correlated with N accumulation and positively correlated with Ca accumulation. The content of irigenin had positive correlations with Ca and Zn accumulation. ConclusionThe nitrogen application at 120-180 kg·hm-2 can increase the rhizome yield and the content of tectoridin, iridin and irisflorentin in the rhizome, so as to improve the yield and quality of this herb.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of different potassium application rates on the growth, yield and quality of two-year-old Belamcanda chinensis and to provide a basis for potassium application to achieve high yield and quality of B. chinensis. MethodOn the basis of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilization at 120 kg·hm-2, we designed five potassium treatments of 0 (K0), 60 (K60), 120 (K120), 180 (K180) and 240 (K240) kg·hm-2 in a field experiment to study the effects of different potassium application rates on the agronomic traits, rhizome yield, flavonoid content and potassium fertilizer utilization efficiency of the two-year-old B. chinensis. ResultThe application of potassium fertilizer promoted the root development and tillering, which significantly improved the yield of B. chinensis. Compared with the K0 treatment, the other potassium treatments increased the rhizome yield by 16.0%-44.0% and K180 had the highest yield. The application of potassium fertilizer increased the accumulation of flavonoids in the rhizomes of B. chinensis. The total accumulation of six flavonoids (mangiferin, tectoridin, iridin, tectorigenin, irigenin and irisflorentin) increased by 33.2% in the K120 treatment compared with that in the K0 treatment. Furthermore, the application of potassium fertilizer promoted the accumulation of N, K, Mg, Fe and Zn. With the increase in potassium application rate, the potassium accumulation of B. chinensis first increased and then decreased, while the partial productivity and the absorptivity of roots and leaves gradually decreased. The agronomic efficiency of potassium fertilizer was higher at low to medium potassium application rates and decreased significantly at high potassium application rates. The results of the principal component analysis indicated that the ranking of the overall quality score of B. chinensis was K120>K180>K240>K60>K0. ConclusionConsidering factors such as yield, quality and potassium utilization efficiency of two-year-old B. chinensis, the potassium application at 120-166 kg·hm-2 is recommended for the production of B. chinensis in Tuanfeng County.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of the combined application of organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer at different ratios on the growth, yield and quality of two-year-old Belamcanda chinensis and provide a scientific basis for fertilization to achieve high yield and quality of this medicinal plant. MethodIn a field plot experiment, we designed five fertilization patterns with organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer at different ratios: OM0 (pure chemical fertilizer), OM1 (30% organic fertilizer + chemical fertilizer, application of organic fertilizer at 2 567 kg·hm-2), OM2 (50% organic fertilizer + chemical fertilizer, application of organic fertilizer at 4 283 kg·hm-2), OM3 (70% organic fertilizer + chemical fertilizer, application of organic fertilizer at 6 000 kg·hm-2), and OM4 (pure organic fertilizer, 8 567 kg·hm-2). The effect of different fertilization patterns on the agronomic properties, herb yield, flavonoid content, mineral element content, and fertilizer utilization rate of B. chinensis were determined. ResultThe combined application of organic fertilizer and chemical fertilizer at an appropriate ratio increased the leaf width and promoted tillering, thereby improving the yield of B. chinensis. The yield of OM1 and OM2 groups increased by 6.65% and 13.10%, respectively, compared with that of OM0 group, while too high a proportion of organic fertilizer led to a decrease in yield. With organic fertilizer application, the content of mangiferin, tectoridin, iridin, tectorigenin, irigenin, and irisflorentin in the rhizomes of B. chinensis increased. Moreover, a certain proportion of organic fertilizer facilitated the accumulation of functional elements such as K, Fe and Cu. The results of the principal component analysis showed that the overall quality of B. chinensis was ranked in the order of OM3 > OM2 > OM1 > OM4 > OM0. The OM2 group had the maximum accumulation of N, P and K and the maximum partial factor productivity of fertilizer. ConclusionAccording to the agronomic traits, yield, quality indexes and fertilizer utilization rate of B. chinensis under different fertilization patterns, we recommended to apply 4 283 kg·hm-2 organic fertilizer in combination with chemical fertilizer to the production of two-year-old B. chinensis, so as to improve the quality and yield of B. chinensis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of different phosphorus application rates on the growth, yield and quality of two-year-old Belamcanda chinensis and provide a basis for phosphorus application in the high-quality and high-yielding cultivation of B. chinensis. MethodIn this study, we designed five phosphorus application rates of 0 (P0), 60 (P60), 120 (P120), 180 (P180) and 240 (P240) kg·hm-2 on the basis of 120 kg·hm-2 nitrogen and potassium fertilizers to investigate the effects of different phosphorus levels on the agronomic traits, yield, mineral content, flavonoid content and phosphorus utilization efficiency of B. chinensis through field experiments. ResultThe plant height and tillering number of B. chinensis gradually increased after phosphorus fertilization. The phosphorus application increased the rhizome yield by 37.59%-61.03% compared with P0 treatment and the highest yield was achieved when phosphorus fertilizer was applied at 120 kg·hm-2. The content of mangiferin and irisflorentin in the rhizomes gradually increased with the increase in phosphorus application and the moderate application of phosphorus fertilizer increased the content of tectoridin, iridin and irigenin. The highest Mn, Cu and Fe elements were achieved at 60 and 120 kg·hm-2 of phosphorus fertilization, respectively. The overall quality scores of B. chinensis were ranked in the order of P240>P180>P120>P60>P0. With the increase in phosphorus application, the phosphorus accumulation of B. chinensis first increased and then decreased, and the partial factor productivity, apparent utilization rate and agronomic efficiency of phosphorus fertilizer gradually decreased. ConclusionConsidering the yield, quality and phosphorus utilization efficiency of B. chinensis, it is recommended to apply phosphorus fertilizer at about 120 kg·hm-2 in the production of B. chinensis in Tuanfeng county.

ObjectiveTo clarify the accumulation and distribution characteristics of dry matter and mineral elements in Artemisia argyi var. argyi cv. Qiai, and to provide technical support for the high yield of and efficient utilization of nutrients in this medicinal species. MethodTwo cultivars of this species, Qiqing 1 and Qihuang 1 were selected, and the composition of dry matter in different organs, the content, accumulation, and distribution of mineral elements in each organ of the two cultivars, and the dynamic changes of volatile oil content and index components eucalyptol and borneol in leaves of the two cultivars were monitored at different growth stages. ResultThe period from February to March marked the early growth stage of Qiai, and the dry matter was mainly distributed in the leaves. It accelerated the growth in April, and the period from April to mid-June witnessed the vigorous vegetative growth of Qiai, during which the dry matter was mainly found in the stems and leaves. It began the reproductive growth from late June and the dry matter was mainly distributed in the stems. In the flowering stage in August, no dry matter accumulation occurred. As for the volatile oil, the content was high (> 1.10%) at the vigorous vegetative growth stage and peaked on June 14 (1.33% in Qiqing 1, and 1.23% in Qihuang 1). The relative mass fraction of eucalyptol was the maximum at the vegetative growth stage (8.67% in Qiqing 1, and 13.07% in Qihuang 1). The relative mass fraction of borneol peaked at the early growth stage (2.63% in Qiqing 1, and 5.94% in Qihuang 1). The content of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc in leaves was in significantly positive correlation with the content of volatile oil and the relative content of eucalyptol and borneol. The content of macroelements nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and calcium and trace elements iron and zinc peaked at the early growth stage, and the content was the highest in stem and leaf. The content of macroelement magnesium and trace elements manganese and copper was the highest at vegetative growth stage when the content of other elements decreased and the nutrients were gradually transferred to the buds, flowers and other organs. In the whole growth period, the distribution of potassium, calcium, and zinc was in the order of leaf > stem > root, and the distribution of nitrogen, phosphorus, copper, magnesium, and manganese followed the order of leaf > root > stem. The distribution of iron was in the order of root > leaf > stem. There was a significantly positive correlation between the total amount of dry matter and the absorption of nutrients in 'Qiai'. The absorption of macroelements by Qiai was in the order of potassium > nitrogen > calcium > phosphorus > magnesium, and the ratio of absorbed elements was about 2.66∶2.51∶0.6∶0.11∶0.04. The absorption of trace elements followed the order of manganese > iron > zinc > copper, and the ratio of absorbed elements was about 0.25∶0.17∶0.05∶0.04. In terms of the production of medicinal materials, 'Qiai' needed about 4.11 kg potassium, 3.58 kg nitrogen, 0.91 kg phosphorus, 0.18 kg calcium, 0.06 kg magnesium, about 6.64 g manganese, 2.56 g iron, 1.30 g zinc, and 0.92 g copper to produce 100 kg medicinal materials. ConclusionEnough organic fertilizer and phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be applied as base fertilizers for Qiai. The vegetative growth stage (April-June) marks the high accumulation of dry matter and large demand of nutrients, during which topdressing should be conducted timely and early, especially nitrogen fertilizer, and appropriate amount of micro-element fertilizer should be added. Qiai needs a large amount of calcium and magnesium fertilizers from the mid-vegetative growth stage, and they should be applied in time in the late stage to ensure the vegetative growth of the plants for seeds and the quality of the medicinal material of Qiai.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of prolonged photodynamic therapy (PDT) irradiation time combined with intravitreal injection of ranibizumab in the treatment of circumscribed choroidal hemangioma (CCH).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From March 2012 to March 2018, 51 eyes of 51 patients diagnosed in Shenzhen Eye Hospital were included in the study. Among the patients, the tumor of 36 eyes were located in macular area, of 15 eyes were located outside macular area (near center or around optic disc). All patients underwent BCVA, color fundus photography, FFA, ocular B-scan ultrasonography and OCT examinations. The BCVA examination was performed using the international standard visual acuity chart, which was converted into logMAR visual acuity. OCT showed 48 eyes with macular serous retinal detachment. of 36 eyes with tumor located in macular area, the logMAR BCVA was 0.05±0.05, the tumor thickness was 4.5± 2.2 mm, the diameter of tumor was 9.7±3.6 mm. Of 15 eyes with tumor located outside macular area, the logMAR BCVA was 0.32±0.15, the tumor thickness was 3.8±1.4 mm, the diameter of tumor was 7.7± 1.9 mm. PDT was performed for all eyes with the irradiation time of 123 s. After 48 h, all patients received intravitreal injections of 0.5 mg ranibizumab (0.05 ml). At 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment, the same equipment and methods before treatment were used for related examination. BCVA, subretinal effusion (SRF), tumor leakage and size changes were observed. BCVA, tumor thickness and diameter before and after treatment were compared by t test. Results:At 6 months after treatment, the tumor was becoming smaller without scar formation. FFA showed that the blood vessels in the tumor were sparse compared with those before treatment, and the fluorescence leakage domain was reduced. OCT showed 43 eyes of macular serous detachment were treated after the combined treatment. The logMAR BCVA were 0.16±0.15 and 0.55±0.21 of the eyes with tumor located in or outside macular area, respectively. The difference of logMAR BCVA between before and after treatment was significant ( t=-2.511, -2.676; P=0.036, 0.040). Both the tumor thickness ( t=3.416, 3.055; P=0.011, 0.028) and diameter ( t=4.385, 4.171; P=0.002, 0.009) of CCH patients were significantly reduced compared with that before treatment. Conclusion:The tumor of CCH can be reduced by prolonged PDT irradiation time combined with intravitreal injection of ranibizumab.
