The medicinal use of Malvae Semen has a long history. In this paper， by consulting the ancient materia medica， prescription， agronomy， literature and other aspects of the classics， the name， origin， evolution of scientific name， quality， harvesting and processing， functions and indications and others of Malvae Semen were systematically sorted out and verified， so as to provide a basis for the development and utilization of famous classical formulas containing this herb. According to the textual research， Shennong Bencaojing began to use Dongkuizi as the correct name， which was used in the past dynasties， and there were also aliases such as Kuicaizi， Huacai， and Kuizi. Through the original research， it can be seen that Kuicai is the mainstream original plant of Malvae Semen， that is， Malva verticillata var. crispa， the Alcea rosea and M. cathayensis are also used. In modern times， the seeds of Abutilon theophrasti have been passed off as Malvae Semen， while the seeds of M. verticillata var. crispa have rarely been used in medicine. And Abutili Semen has been another medicinal material with different efficacy since the collection of Newly Revised Materia Medica in the Tang dynasty. Since the Ming and Qing dynasties， the cultivation of Kuicai has been decreasing， while A. theophrasti is more common and easy to obtain， and Abutili Semen and Malvae Semen are similar in morphology and confused， which should be corrected. In addition， Malvae Fructus is a Mongolian customary medicinal herb， which is different from the traditional use of seeds in traditional Chinese medicine. Kuicai， as an important vegetable in history， was widely cultivated and gradually shrunk after the Song dynasty， it is now mainly produced in southern provinces. The quality evaluation of Malvae Semen is better for those with dry bodies， full grain， grayish brown color， no mud， and no impurities. The harvesting is generally in the autumn and winter. After drying， it is seeded， sieved peel and impurities， mashed， or slightly stir-fried to yellow-white color with gentle fire. It is sweet， cold and slippery in nature and taste， with the main effects of laxation， diuresis， lactation and elimination of swelling. The efficacy of Abutili Semen is clearing heat and removing toxicity， promoting diuresis and removing nebula， the efficacy is quite different from that of Malvae Semen. Based on the results of textual research， it is suggested that M. verticillata var. crispa should be used as the medicinal source of Malvae Semen in the development of famous classical formulas， the corresponding processing methods should be selected according to the requirements of drug processing in the formulas， while the raw products are recommended to be used if the processing is not specified.

Objective: To investigate the environmental contamination of norovirus in nurseries and primary/secondary schools, so as to provide a scientific basis for effective prevention and control measures. Methods: A total of 483 external environmental samples were collected from 34 cluster outbreaks of norovirus gastroenteritis in kindergartens and primary/secondary schools in Linhai City from 2021 to 2024. Pathogen detection was conducted using a rapid nucleic acid extraction kit and realtime fluorescence RT-PCR, and the results were analyzed using the χ2 test or Fishers exact test. Results: Among the collected external environmental samples, the total positive rate of surface contamination was 13.66%. The positive rates in kindergartens and primary/secondary schools were 12.20% and 15.82%, respectively. In kindergartens, the five surfaces with the highest detection rates were desks/chairs (23.33%), toilet stool troughs (20.69%), urinal troughs (12.00%), washbasins/sinks (11.11%), and toilet mops (9.38%). In primary/secondary schools, the top five were toilet stool troughs (38.30%), urinal troughs (23.53%), toilet door handles (13.04%), toilet mops (12.50%), and drinking cups (11.11%). The difference in positive detection rates among different external environments in primary/secondary schools was statistically significant (Fishers exact probability test, P<0.01). The positive detection rate in sanitary toilets was higher than that in classroom environments (χ2=17.38), while the positive detection rate in classroom environments of kindergartens was higher than that in primary/secondary schools (χ2=5.42)(P<0.05). Conclusions Norovirus exhibits a high contamination rate in nurseries and schools, particularly in restroom areas. Strengthening sanitation and disinfection in highrisk environments, and improving hygiene awareness among children and staff, are essential for the effective prevent and control of norovirus.

Objective To investigate the relationship between different interleukins (ILs) and gynecological tumors, including cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, and uterine leiomyoma using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. Methods IL and gynecological tumor data were obtained from European populations by using the IEU OpenGWAS open database. Two-sample MR analysis was applied, different interleukins were used as exposure factors, significant SNP in GWAS data were selected as instrumental variables, and the instrumental variables were independent of each other. The risk of three kinds of gynecological tumors was analyzed separately to explore the causal relationship between ILs predicted by genes and outcome indicators. The TwoSampleMR package in R language (4.3.1) software was used for statistical analysis. MR analysis was performed using inverse variance weighted, MR Egger regression, weighted median, simple mode, and weighted mode methods. Results IL-18 receptor 1 (P=0.039) and IL-24 (P=0.025) were negatively correlated with the risk of cervical cancer. IL-4 (P=0.040), IL-21 (P=0.026), and IL-37 (P=0.027) were positively correlated with the risk of endometrial cancer. IL-15 receptor subunit alpha (P=0.005) was negatively correlated with the risk of endometrial cancer. IL-17A (P=0.005) and IL-37 (P=0.018) were negatively correlated with the risk of uterine leiomyoma. IL-21 (P=0.035) was positively correlated with the risk of uterine leiomyoma. Conclusion Genetically predicted IL-4, IL-15Rα, IL-17A, IL-18R1, IL-21, IL-24, and IL-37 are causally associated with the risk of three gynecological tumors. Further exploration of the molecular mechanism of ILs in gynecological tumors may provide potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of gynecological tumors.

BACKGROUND:The key to preventing the recurrence of intrauterine adhesions is to reconstruct the endometrium with normal function.The latest breakthrough in the treatment of recurrent intrauterine adhesions in and outside China is the use of degradable materials to prepare hydrogels to prevent the recurrence of adhesions. OBJECTIVE:To review the research advance in hydrogel-promoted endometrial repair in intrauterine adhesions. METHODS:PubMed,Web of Science,China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),and WanFang databases were searched systematically,with the keywords"intrauterine adhesions,endometrial injury,endometrium regeneration,hydrogel"in Chinese and English.Relevant articles published in each database from January 1990 to March 2023 were collected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In recent years,research on hydrogel-promoted endometrial repair in uterine adhesions in and outside China has made some progress and plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of intrauterine adhesions and the promotion of endometrial repair:(1)As an important carrier in tissue engineering,hydrogel itself has excellent biocompatibility,biodegradability and three-dimensional network structure,which can be better applied in the treatment of intrauterine adhesions.(2)The hydrogel-based carrier system can promote the proliferation and differentiation of endometrial epithelial cells by transporting drugs/biologics/stem cells,and restore normal uterine morphology to prevent adhesion recurrence.(3)Hyaluronic acid hydrogels can not only meet good biocompatibility,but also promote the proliferation and differentiation of endometrial epithelial cells,and will be hydrolyzed by corresponding enzymes in utero,without affecting the normal metabolism of the body.They are currently commonly used uterine anti-adhesion agents in the clinic and are also the most commonly used hydrogel carriers in tissue engineering research.(4)Poloxamer hydrogel with excellent temperature-sensitive properties can rapidly gelate into the body,quickly form a physical barrier,and can play a slow-release effect on carrying substances and provide a platform for cell growth/adhesion.(5)There are broad prospects for the preparation of therapeutic hydrogels using materials with different characteristics,such as temperature-sensitive hydrogels,pH-responsive hydrogels and photosensitive hydrogels,but there are still many problems to be solved,such as the safety of the hydrogel system,whether the degradation products cause immune reactions,and whether they have an impact on the normal body's menstrual period.A large number of animal experiments and clinical trials are needed to verify its safety and efficacy,and continuously improve the treatment strategy.

Objective:To investigate the values of ultrasound elasticity(UE)imaging and color Doppler flow energy(CDFI)in differential diagnosis for triple negative breast cancer(TNBC)and fibroadenoma.Methods:A total of 50 TNBC patients who admitted to People's Hospital of Wanning from January 2021 to January 2022 and were confirmed by surgical pathology were selected,and they were divided into TNBC group.On the other hand,a total of 50 patients with fibroadenoma who were confirmed by surgical pathology during the same period were selected and they were divided into fibroadenoma group.All patients did not undergo any clinical intervention before ultrasound examination.UE and CDFI were used respectively to evaluate the degrees of softness and hardness of the tissues,the color blood flow and elasticity scores of lesions.The pathological result was used as the gold standard to analyze respectively the diagnostic efficacies of UE and CDFI for TNBC and fibroadenoma.Results:According to the characteristics of ultrasound imaging,the TNBC group mostly showed burr sign on lesion edge,the attenuation and hyperechoic halo of posterior echo,and existing axillary lymph node metastasis.The fibroadenoma group mostly showed clear boundaries of lesion area,regular lesion morphology,non-microcalcification.The diagnostic sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of UE detection were respectively 90.91%,82.14%and 86.00%,while these indicators of CDFI were respectively 73.08%,75.00%and 74.00%.In addition,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of the combined detection of them were respectively 94.23%,95.83%and 96.00%.The detection efficiency of the combined detection was higher than that of each single detection.Conclusion:UE has higher sensitivity in the differential diagnosis of TNBC and fibroadenoma,but it's specificity is not high.The combined detection of UE and CDFI can improve the specificity and accuracy of differential diagnosis.

【Objective】 To compare the degree, efficacy and safety of testicular catch-up growth after inguinal and subinguinal surgery for adolescent varicocele. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 121 adolescent varicocele patients with secondary testicular atrophy treated during Sep.2014 and Jun.2021 at Huili People’s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, including 40 cases treated with the inguinal incision approach, and 81 with the subinguinal approach. The characteristics of intraoperative, efficacy, surgical complications and prognosis were compared between the two groups. 【Results】 The inguinal group had significantly shorter microscope usage time (P=0.006), fewer number of preserved internal spermatic arteries (P<0.001), and significantly larger diameter of preserved internal spermatic arteries than the subinguinal group (P=0.005). The subinguinal group required ligation of more internal spermatic veins, and there were significantly more internal spermatic veins with a diameter of 4 mm or more (P<0.001). No recurrence occurred, and the incidences of scrotal edema and hydrocele were very low (P>0.05). Two years after surgery, the bilateral testicular volume of both groups was significantly larger than that before surgery (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the testicles (P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 In the treatment of adolescent varicocele patients with secondary testicular atrophy, the subinguinal approach significantly reduces the difficulty of microsurgical varicocele ligation, and has good efficacy and safety, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
