The development of organ transplantation has brought new hope to many patients with organ failure and their families, but it has also raised numerous ethical issues. How to balance the rights and interests between organ donors and recipients, as well as ensure the fairness and transparency of the transplantation process has become an urgent problem to be solved. Based on the latest Regulations on Organ Donation and Transplantation and the Working Rules of the Ethics Committee for Human Organ Transplantation, the current difficulties and challenges in organ transplantation ethics were deeply analyzed. Taking the ethical review practice of Shenzhen Third People’s Hospital as an example, this paper explored issues such as full informed consent of both donors and recipients, risk assessment of marginal donors, and the review of relationships between donors and recipients. It also explored and constructed a set of complete ethical review models for organ transplantation through refined management. This model improved the efficiency and quality of ethical review as well as enriched the related knowledge system. It is expected that the implementation of this model can provide a reference for promoting effective ethical review nationwide, advancing the improvement and development of ethical review work in organ transplantation. Meanwhile, more medical ethics experts and practitioners are called upon to focus on and engage in the research and practice of ethical review in organ transplantation, jointly promoting progress in this field.

This article discussed the evolution of the traditional preparation process of Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata.The production methods for Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata in Song Dynasty include cake-making of Pinelliae Rhizoma together with ginger juice and fermentation after cake-making,and the former method of cake-making was the mainstream.The process technology in Jin and Yuan Dynasties inherited from that in Song Dynasty,and the application of Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata had certain limitations.The medical practitioners of Ming Dynasty elucidated the mechanism of processing of Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata,and proposed the view of"sliced Pinelliae Rhizoma being potent while fermented Pinelliae Rhizoma being mild".In the Ming Dynasty,LI Shi-Zhen defined the cake-making process and fermentation process for Pinelliae Rhizoma,and HAN Mao's Han Shi Yi Tong(Han's Clear View of Medicine)contained five prescriptions for the processing of Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata,which had the epoch-making signficance in the expansion of prescriptions for the processing of Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata.In the Qing Dynasty,HAN Fei-Xia's ten methods for making Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata were summarized on the basis of the methods recorded in Han Shi Yi Tong,and at that time,the processing of Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata and the preparation of Massa Medicata Fermentata interacted with each other.After the founding of the People's Republic of China,the local experience in the preparation of Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata was deeply influenced by the methods in the Qing Dynasty,and the local preparation technical standards gradually became the same.Moreover,this article also explored the issues of the importance of"Pinelliae Rhizoma"and"ingredients for fermentation",the pre-treatment of Pinelliae Rhizoma,the distinction between cake-making process and fermentation process for Pinelliae Rhizoma,the amount of flour added as well as the timing of adding,the addition of Massa Medicata Fermentata powder,the role of Alum in Pinelliae Rhizoma Fermentata and so on.

Influenza virus causes serious threat to human life and health. Due to the inherent high variability of influenza virus, clinically resistant mutant strains of currently approved anti-influenza virus drugs have emerged. Therefore, it is urgent to develop antiviral drugs with new targets or mechanisms of action. RNA-dependent RNA polymerase is directly responsible for viral RNA transcription and replication, and plays key roles in the viral life cycle, which is considered an important target of anti-influenza drug design. From the point of view of medicinal chemistry, this review summarizes current advances in diverse small-molecule inhibitors targeting influenza virus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, hoping to provide valuable reference for development of novel antiviral drugs.

Objective:
To explore the prevalence and related factors of overweight, obesity and hypertension comorbidities among children and adolescents in Ningxia, so as to provide a scientific basis for effective early health intervention in children and adolescents.
Methods:
From September 2021 to June 2022, a total of 4 577 students aged 9-16 were selected from Jinfeng District of Yinchuan City, Shapotou District of Zhongwei City, Yanchi County of Wuzhong City and Pingluo County of Shizuishan City in Ningxia by multi stage cluster random sampling method for questionnaire survey and physical measurement. The influencing factors of overweight, obesity and hypertension comorbidities in children and adolescents were investigated by Chi square test and multivariate unconditioned Logistic regression analysis with weighted complex sampling design.
Results:
The prevalence of overweight and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Ningxia was 22.87%, the prevalence of hypertension was 1.30%, and the comorbity rate of overweight, obesity and hypertension was 1.07%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that students aged 13-16 ( OR =15.66,95% CI =3.84-63.96, P <0.05) were more likely to suffer from overweight, obesity and hypertension than students aged 9-12. The students of insufficient sleep duration ( OR =5.47, 95% CI =1.73-17.33, P <0.05) had higher levels of overweight, obesity and hypertension comorbidities than those of adequate sleep duration. Students who had breakfast 1 to 7 times a week ( OR =0.08, 95% CI =0.02-0.37) had lower incidence than those who had breakfast once a week ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
Age, sleep time and breakfast frequency are all related factors of overweight, obesity and hypertension co morbidity among primary and secondary school students in Ningxia. Close attention should be paid to students aged 9-12 years with insufficient sleep time and fasting in the morning, and carry out scientific education and prevention and control interventions should be carried out.
