Da Qinjiaotang is the 54th formula of the 100 formulas in the Catalogue of Ancient Classical Formulas (the first batch) ,and it originated from the Collection of Writings on the Mechanism of Disease, Suitability of Qi, and Safeguarding of Life Discussed in Plain Questions. Da Qinjiaotang is composed of Gentiana macrophylla, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Angelica sinensis, Paeonia lactiflora, Asari Radix et Rhizoma, Notopterygium incisum, Saposhnikoviae Radix, Scutellariae Radix, Gypsum, Angelica dahurica, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, Rehmanniae Radix, Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata, Poria, and Angelicae Pubescentis Radix. It is a classical formula for treating strokes. Da Qinjiaotang is widely used in modern clinical practices for treating ischemic stroke, peripheral facial paralysis, cervical spondylosis, rheumatic arthritis, neurodermatitis, and other multisystem diseases. Therefore, following the Principles of Textual Research on the Key Information of Ancient Classical Famous Formulas, the authors collected the ancient Chinese medical literature of Da Qinjiaotang by the method of bibliometrics and screened out 177 valid data, involving 100 ancient books of traditional Chinese medicine. Based on the historical evolution, composition, dosage, method of preparation, and preparation of the original medicinal materials of Da Qinjiaotang, a systematic study was carried out. It was found that among the 175 records of the main diseases and syndromes, stroke (144) was the most, accounting for 82.29% of the total diseases and syndromes. Later generations mostly followed the practice of LIU Wansu in using Da Qinjiaotang to treat stroke caused by "weak blood and inability to nourish tendon", featuring "hands and feet cannot move, stiff tongue hinders speaking", as well as other symptoms, such as slant of the mouth, hemiplegia, numbness of the limbs, paroxysmal pain, and acerbic syncope. The treatment scope was expanded, covering tendon dryness, clonic convulsion, spasm syndrome, and arthralgia syndrome. At the same time, it was found that there was a controversy between "internal wind" and "external wind" in the treatment of stroke by Da Qinjiaotang. LIU Wansu thought that stroke was caused by internal factors, created the theory of "hot stroke", and used Da Qinjiaotang to treat "internal wind". Many doctors in later generations focused on treating the "external wind" of "internal deficiency and evil". There were 76 valid data on the composition of drugs, 59 of which had doses for each drug. It was suggested to use the modern conversion dosage of the original formula, with 41.30 g per dose. The drug should be boiled in 600 mL water until 300 mL, decocted once, and taken in a warm state after removing the dregs anytime. Through the analysis and study of the ancient books about Da Qinjiaotang, the paper clarified its historical evolution and confirmed its key information, so as to provide the ancient literature evidence for the research and development of the classical famous formula Daqinjiaotan and its better clinical application.

Huopo Xialingtang is a famous classical formula for treating dampness and warmth, which is included in the Catalogue of Ancient Famous Classical Formulas(The First Batch). In this paper, bibliometric methods was used to collect the literature related to Huopo Xialingtang, and 16 items of related literature were retrieved, involving five medical books, which were used to textual research on the origin, name, composition, drug dosage, preparation method, processing and main treatment symptoms of this formula. The results indicated that Huopo Xialingtang was originated from Yiyuan written by Shi Funan in the Qing dynasty, and and was later named and extended by He Lianchen. The composition of the proposed formula was consistent with the record of Yiyuan, and the origin of each Chinese materia medica was basically clear. Houpo was the dried bark and root bark of Magnolia officinalis, Zexie was the dried tubers of Alisma orientale, Kuxingren was the dried mature seeds of Prunus armeniaca, Doukou was the dried mature fruits of Amomum kravanh, the origin of Tuhuoxiang was consistent with the 2018 edition of Shanghai Standards of Processing Chinese Crud Drugs, and the origins of the remaining Chinese medicines were consistent with the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The converted dose of each Chinese medicine was 7.46 g for Agastache rugosa, 3.73 g for Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex, 8.39 g for Pinelliae Rhizoma Praeparatum cum Zingibere et Alumine, 11.19 g for Poria, 11.19 g for Armeniacae Semen Amarum, 14.92 g for Coicis Semen, 2.61 g for Amomi Fructus Rotundus, 5.60 g for Polyporus, 5.60 g for Alismatis Rhizoma, 14.92 g for Tetrapanacis Medulla. Huopo Xialingtang was initially used for the treatment of dampness and warmth at the beginning of the disease, and was later expanded to treat dampness obstruction, dampness-warming dysentery and so on, but always with the dampness-heat in the lungs and spleen as the pathogenesis. In modern times, the clinical application is more extensive, used in digestive, respiratory, endocrine, nervous system and other types of diseases, especially for chronic gastritis, stomach pain and fever. By combing the ancient literature of Huopo Xialingtang, we verified the origin of the formula and determined the key information of the prescription, which can provide literature reference for the clinical application and drug development of this formula.

Objective:To discuss the clinical curative effect and feasibility of the combination therapy of the minimally invasive percutaneous quantitative suture technique eight times and Kirschner wire elastic fixation in the treatment of mallet finger.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on patients with tendon zone Ⅰ rupture of tendinous mallet fingers who underwent surgery in the Department of Hand and Foot Microsurgery of Nanjing Jiangbei Hospital from July 2021 to June 2023. During the procedure, firstly, the extensor digitalis tendon in the zone Ⅰ was sutured percutaneous with 3-0 thread monofilament sutures in the "quantitative 8-stitch method " according to the pre-marked number sequence of 1 to 8, and fixed at the base of the distal phalanx via a constructed bone tunnel. Secondly, the distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ) was fixed elastically with Kirschner wire, without damage to the articular surface. Four to five weeks after the operation, the Kirschner wire was removed, and flexion and extension of the affected finger were gradually increased. At the last follow-up, the range of motion (ROM) and the total action motion (TAM) of the finger were recorded, and the healthy side of the ROM and TAM slightly differed. Finger function was evaluated following the American Association of Hand Surgeons TAM system. It was divided into four grades: excellent, good, fair and poor. SPSS 15.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Measurement data conforming to normal distribution were expressed as Mean±SD, and a paired sample t-test was used for comparison between the affected finger and the corresponding healthy finger. Results:A total of 30 patients (30 digits) were enrolled, including 19 males and 11 females with the age of (38.5±4.3) years (14 to 71 years). All were single closed injuries. Time from injury to operation was (1.1±0.4) d (3 h to 7 d). The distance of tendon break was (8.4±0.5) mm (4 to 12 mm). Mallet finger deformities were all corrected postoperatively. There were no complications such as scar, exposed suture, nail tract infection, or nail removal on the dorsal side of the affected finger. All patients were followed up for (7.5±1.3) months (6-13 months). At the last follow-up, the ROM of DIPJ of the affected finger and the corresponding healthy finger were 43.28°±2.03° and 44.15°±1.12°, respectively, with no statistical significance ( t=1.32, P=0.084). TAM of the affected finger and the corresponding healthy finger were 240.15°±5.13° and 242.13°±3.11°, respectively, with no significant difference ( t=2.12, P=0.135). According to TAM system evaluation criteria, excellent in 27 cases, good in 3 cases, excellent and good rate was 100% (30/30). Conclusion:The combination of the minimally invasive percutaneous quantitative suture technique eight times and Kirschner wire elastic fixation has a satisfactory treatment outcome in the mallet finger, and there is no damage to the DIPJ surface. It is a simple, safe, effective method with minimal invasion.

Danggui Liuhuangtang is the 47th of the 100 famous classical formulas published by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and is known as the holy medicine for night sweat. By bibliometrics, the authors collected the ancient books on Danggui Liuhuangtang and screened out 269 valid data, involving 156 ancient books of traditional Chinese medicine. The analysis on the historical origin, disease syndromes, pathogenesis, composition, dosage, preparation, usage, and processing of Danggui Liuhuangtang found that this famous classical formula originated from Secret Book of the Orchid Chamber (《兰室秘藏》) written by LI Dongyuan, and is composed of Angelicae Sinensis Radix, Rehmanniae Radix, Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata, Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex, Scutellariae Radix, Coptidis Rhizoma and Astragali Radix. It has the functions of nourishing Yin, reducing fire, consolidating exterior and stopping sweating, and mainly treats night sweat due to Yin deficiency and fire exuberance. In the later generations, disease syndromes are mostly treated based on LI Dongyuan's theory, and have expanded to more than 30 kinds (339 in total), among which night sweat (208) was the most, accounting for 61.36% of the total disease syndromes, followed by spontaneous sweating (38), accounting for 11.21%. Additionally, it was found that Danggui Liuhuangtang was widely used in modern clinical practice for various disease syndromes. Among them, endocrine disease (77, 28.21%) was predominant, followed by gynecological disease (48, 17.58%), and pediatric disease (24, 8.79%). Although Danggui Liuhuangtang treats many disease syndromes, their pathogenesis was always yin deficiency and fire exuberance. Through the systematic excavation of the ancient books on Danggui Liuhuangtang and the analysis of its modern clinical application, this paper probed into the historical evolution and confirmed the key information of the formula, providing detailed literature basis for the research and development application of famous classical formulas.

In order to explore the effect of peptidoglycan hydrolase on the viable cell counts of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and the yield of alkaline protease, five peptidoglycan hydrolase genes (lytC, lytD, lytE, lytF and lytG) of B. amyloliquefaciens TCCC111018 were knocked out individually. The viable cell counts of the bacteria and their alkaline protease activities before and after gene deletion were determined. The viable cell counts of the knockout mutants BA ΔlytC and BA ΔlytE achieved 1.67×106 CFU/mL and 1.44×106 CFU/mL respectively after cultivation for 60 h, which were 32.5% and 14.3% higher than that of the control strain BA Δupp. Their alkaline protease activities reached 20 264 U/mL and 17 265 U/mL, respectively, which were 43.1% and 27.3% higher than that of the control strain. The results showed that deleting some of the peptidoglycan hydrolase genes effectively maintained the viable cell counts of bacteria and increased the activity of extracellular enzymes, which may provide a new idea for optimization of the microbial host for production of industrial enzymes.

Shengyang Yiweitang is one of the first 100 classical prescriptions published by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It originated from the Clarifying Doubts about Damage from Internal and External Causes by physician LI Dongyuan of Jin dynasty, and is composed of Astragali Radix, Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, Poria, Pinelliae Rhizoma, Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, Angelicae Pubescentis Radix, Saposhnikoviae Radix, Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix, Bupleuri Radix, Paeoniae Radix Alba, Alismatis Rhizoma, and Coptidis Rhizoma. With the effects of replenishing Qi, promoting Yang, clearing heat and removing dampness, Shengyang Yiweitang is used to treat spleen-stomach weakness and dampness-heat accumulation syndrome. Using bibliometrics, the authors systematically sorted out the source,composition, dosage, preparation, efficacy, indications, principle of composition, origin and processing of drugs,and modern clinical application of the prescription, and explored its history and key information. Additionally, it was found that Shengyang Yiweitang was widely used in modern clinical practice and was suitable for multisystem diseases, of which digestive system (264) was the most common, accounting for 41.71%, followed by urogenital system (57, 9.00%) and nervous system (48, 7.58%). Although the treatment scope was wide, the pathogenesis of the diseases in traditional Chinese medicine belongs to "spleen-stomach weakness", which fully reflected Li's academic thought of "internal injury of spleen and stomach leads to various diseases". The key information of Shengyang Yiweitang was determined by summarizing the relevant ancient books and modern literature, so as to provide accurate reference for its rational clinical application and further research and development.
