Five compounds were isolated and purified from the water extract of Elaeagnus oxycarpa Schlechtend leaf by multi-dimensional reversed-phase preparative liquid chromatographic system based on the separation and enrichment model. Their structures were identified by spectral analysis such as NMR, MS, UV, IR and by comparison with literature information as 2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione (1), elaeagnussugarester B (2), elaeagnussugarester A (3), elaeagnussugarester C (4), gallic acid (5). Compounds 2-4 are new compounds, compound 1 was isolated from Elaeagnus oxycarpa Schlechtend for the first time. The antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase activities of these compounds were evaluated by using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical method, the 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) free radical method, the potassium ferricyanide reduction method and the colorimetric method with L-tyrosine as substrate. The results showed that compounds 2-5 have good antioxidant activities and inhibitory effect on tyrosinase. Compound 4 exhibited the most strong antioxidant activities, with IC₅₀ = 3.59 ± 0.06 μmol·L^-1 for DPPH free radical scavenging ability, IC₅₀ = 10.04 ± 0.20 μmol·L^-1 for ABTS free radical scavenging ability, and total reduction capacity of compound 4 was better than vitamin C respectively. Compound 3 possessed better inhibitory effect on tyrosinase with IC₅₀ = 0.25 ± 0.06 mmol·L^-1.

Surgical operation is the main treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumors.Dysphagia is a common postoperative complication.Swal-lowing disorder can not only lead to mis-aspiration,malnutrition,aspiration pneumonia and other serious consequences,but also may cause psychological problems and social communication barriers,affecting the quality of life of the patients.At present,there is no systematic evalua-tion and rehabilitation management plan for the problem of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in China.Combining the characteristics of postoperative swallowing disorder in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors,summarizing the clinical experience of ex-perts in the field of tumor and rehabilitation,reviewing and summarizing relevant literature at home and abroad,and through joint discussion and modification,a group of national experts reached this consensus including the core contents of the screening of swallowing disorders,the phased assessment of prognosis and complications,and the implementation plan of comprehensive management such as nutrition management,respiratory management,swallowing function recovery,psychology and nursing during rehabilitation treatment,in order to improve the evalua-tion and rehabilitation of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in clinic.

Objective To investigate the causes of false-positive rifampicin resistant results in Xpert MTB/RIF (Xpert) test for samples with extremely low bacterial loads. Methods A total of 346 samples with extremely low bacterial loads and rifampicin-resistance results from Wuhan Pulmonary Hospital between June 2017 and March 2021 were collected. The samples were divided into probe-delayed and probe dropout groups based on amplification results. Mycobacterial culture and proportion method drug susceptibility testing were performed, and Xpert retesting was conducted for strains with discordant drug susceptibility results. Results Out of the 346 samples, 195 samples (56.36%) were positive in culture. Upon Xpert retesting, among the 64 Xpert-resistant but proportion method-sensitive strains, the proportions of samples in the delayed probe group with mutations in the probe D and probe E were 4.55%（1/22） and 13.33%（2/15）, respectively. In the probe dropout group, the proportions of samples with mutations in the probe A and probe E were 75.00% (9/12) and 80.00% (8/10), respectively. The false-positive rifampicin resistance rates in the delayed probe and probe dropout groups were 78.26% (36/46) and 3.36% (5/149), respectively. Conclusion The main reasons for false-positive rifampicin resistance results in the Xpert test for samples with extremely low bacterial loads were probe delay in the D and E probes, followed by low-level drug-resistant mutations in the A and E probes.

A portable multi-wavelength spectral detector was developed for on-site,rapid and accurate detection of organic pollutants in surface water using ultraviolet light-emitting diodes(UV-LEDs)and the corresponding spectral detection method was built.By measuring the fluorescence spectrum and absorption light intensity and combining with the multi-wavelength spectral correlation calculation method to analyze the target,the developed detector was able to qualitatively and quantitatively detect organic pollutants that responded in the UV-light range of 260-370 nm.The proposed detector was used to detect polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs)and Rhodamine B.The linear ranges of anthracene and Rhodamine B in absorption mode were 10-100 and 8.5-100 mg/L,respectively.In fluorescence mode,the linear ranges for anthracene and Rhodamine B were 0.006-50 and 0.02-0.781 mg/L,correspondingly.The absorption/fluorescence concurrent mode could extend the detection ranges of anthracene and Rhodamine B to 0.006-100 and 0.02-100 mg/L,respectively.The recoveries of PAHs in surface water ranged from 97.4%to 105.1%for anthracene and 84.5%to 91.2%for anthracene,naphthalene,and pyrene in absorption and fluorescence modes,respectively.The method was accurate in both modes.The mixtures containing PAHs were identified by the proposed method under the optimized multi-wavelength spectral correlation calculation.The results demonstrated that the method could achieve a similarity of 75%or more when identifying two different concentrations of solutions containing a single or a mixture of targets within the linear concentration range of the targets.However,the similarity dropped to less than 25%when identifying two solutions of different substances.The proposed method had excellent recognition abilityof targets.The proposed detector and method combined fluorescence and absorption spectroscopy,which could expand the application of spectroscopy in the in situ rapid identification and detection of pollutants such as PAHs in surface water.

Objective To investigate the effect of Ilizarov technique combined with rotational center dome-shaped osteoto-my in the treatment of juvenile distal femoral valgus deformity.Methods A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 11 patients with valgus deformity of the distal femur who had been admitted and followed up completely from January 2016 to October 2020.There were 7 males and 4 females.The 6 patients were on the right side and 5 patients were on the left side.The age ranged from 10 to 14 years old.The center of roration of angulation(CORA)was identified at the distal femur deformity,and dome-shaped osteotomy was performed with the CORA as the midpoint.The annular external fixator was installed according to the needle threading principle of Ilizarov external fixation,and the distal femur was cut off.The valgus deformity under visual inspection of the distal femur was corrected immediately,and the external fixator was fixed and main-tained.The residual deformity and shortening were corrected according to the force line and length of the lower limbs suggested by the weight-bearing full-length anteroposterior and lateral X-rays of both lower limbs.Results All 11 patients were followed up for 13 to 25 months.The time of wearing external fixator was 12 to 17 weeks.In the last follow-up,both lower limbs were measured by the weight-bearing full-length anteroposterior and lateral X-rays,and the length of both lower limbs of 11 patients were equal,and the deformities were corrected.The score of hospital for special surgery(HSS)was used to evaluate the knee function,all of which were excellent.Conclusion The Ilizarov technique was applied in the treatment of distal femoral valgus deformity in adolescents using a rotating central dome-shaped osteotomy.Visual femoral valgus deformity was corrected imme-diately during the operation.After the operation,residual deformities and shortening were dynamically adjusted and corrected according to the force line and shortening degree of lower extremities indicated by the weight-bearing anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of both lower limbs,with minimal damage and fast recovery.

Objective To explore the effectiveness and safety of percutaneous coronary artery shock wave balloon angioplasty(IVL)under the guidance of intravascular ultrasound(IVUS)for the treatment of severe calcification lesions in the left main artery(LM).Methods A total of 26 patients with severe LM(mouth,body,bifurcation)calcification admitted to Jiangnan University Affiliated Hospital from October 2022 to April 2024 were included,with an average age of 72.0(61.8,75.4)years.Under the guidance of IVUS,IVL was used for pre-treatment of calcified lesions,followed by percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with stent/drug balloon implantation.All patients were evaluated using IVUS before and after the use of IVL and after PCI.And compare the IVUS intracavity related data before and after treatment[plaque burden(PB)、minimum lumen area(MLA)、minimum lumen diameter(MLD)]and calcification fracture number,minimum stent area(MSA),stent expansion coefficient(expansion,EXP),etc.Results There were 26 patients(2 with opening lesions,7 with body lesions,and 17 with bifurcation lesions at the end of the main trunk),including 7 with stable angina pectoris(SAP),10 with unstable angina(UA),4 with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI),and 5 with non ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(NSTEMI).The PB at the most severe site of calcification decreased by 79.50(76.00,83.75)％compared to 80.00(76.00,83.75)％after IVL(P=0.001),MLA increased by 3.39(3.14,3.68)mm2 compared to 3.38(3.14,3.67)mm2 after IVL(P=0.039),MLD increased by 3.21(3.07,3.30)mm compared to 3.20(3.07,3.30)mm after IVL(P=0.024),and there was 100％calcification rupture(1/2 cases,2/9 cases,≥3/15 cases).The stent/drug ball was successfully implanted 100％,with EXP of(89.15±4.42)％and an MSA of 7.20(6.46,7.45)mm2.No adverse events such as death,angina or recurrent myocardial infarction occurred during the 3 months follow-up after surgery.Conclusions After evaluation by IVUS and pre-treatment with IVL,PCI was successfully completed for severe calcification lesions in LM,and IVL can be used as an option for the treatment of severe calcification in LM.

Objective:To explore the role of NK cells in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell micro-transplantation(MST)in the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML).Methods:Data from 93 AML patients treated with MST at our center from 2013-2018 were retrospectively analyzed.The induction regimen was anthracycline and cytarabine combined with peripheral blood stem cells transplantation mobilization by granulocyte colony stimulating factor(GPBSC),followed by 2-4 courses of intensive treatment with medium to high doses of cytarabine combined with GPBSC after achieving complete remission(CR).The therapeutic effects of one and two courses of MST induction therapy on 42 patients who did not reach CR before transplantation were evaluated.Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to analyze the impact of donor NK cell dose and KIR genotype,including KIR ligand mismatch,2DS1,haplotype,and HLA-Cw ligands on survival prognosis of patients.Results:Forty-two patients received MST induction therapy,and the CR rate was 57.1％after 1 course and 73.7％after 2 courses.Multivariate analysis showed that,medium and high doses of NK cells was significantly associated with improved disease-free survival(DFS)of patients(HR=0.27,P=0.005;HR=0.21,P=0.001),and high doses of NK cells was significantly associated with improved overall survival(OS)of patients(HR=0.15,P=0.000).Donor 2DS1 positive significantly increases OS of patients(HR=0.25,P=0.011).For high-risk patients under 60 years old,patients of the donor-recipient KIR ligand mismatch group had longer DFS compared to the nonmismatch group(P=0.036);donor 2DS1 positive significantly prolonged OS of patients(P=0.009).Conclusion:NK cell dose,KIR ligand mismatch and 2DS1 influence the therapeutic effect of MST,improve the survival of AML patients.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and action mechanism of Jujing Decoction(JJD)in the treatment of as-thenoteratozoospermia(ATZ)by comparing JJD with combined administration of the antioxidant stress drug and sperm energy metabo-lism agent.Methods:According to the inclusion criteria,we enrolled 67 male patients with ATZ in this randomized controlled clini-cal study and treated them by oral administration of JJD(the JJD group,n=34)or natural vitamin E combined with L-carnitine solu-tion(the positive control group,n=33),both for 12 weeks.We collected the semen parameters,sperm DNA fragmentation index(DFI),sperm mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP),seminal plasma reactive oxygen species(ROS)and superoxide dismutase(SOD)levels from the patients,observed the ultrastructure of sperm mitochondria under the transmission electron microscope(TEM)before and after treatment,and analyzed the clinical efficacy and action mechanism of JJD by comparing the data obtained between the two groups.Results:Treatment and follow-up were completed in 60 of the cases,30 in the JJD and 30 in the positive control group.The total rate of clinical effectiveness was significantly higher in the JJD than in the positive control group(76.8％vs 43.3％,P＜0.05).Compared with the baseline,the percentages of progressively motile sperm(PMS)and morphologically normal sperm(MNS),DFI and MMP were significantly improved(P＜0.05),the level of seminal plasma ROS decreased(P＞0.05),and that of SOD re-markably increased(P＜0.05)after treatment with JJD;PMS,MNS,DFI and MMP were also improved(P＞0.05),seminal plas-ma ROS decreased(P＞0.05)and SOD increased(P＜0.05)in the positive controls after medication.In comparison with the posi-tive controls,the patients treated with JJD showed even more significant improvement in PMS([29.37±14.56]％vs[42.68±15.86]％,P＜0.05),MNS([1.84±1.32]％vs[3.66±1.72％]％,P＜0.05),DFI([32.66±5.23]％vs[16.61±4.20]％,P＜0.05)and MMP([46.47±9.48]％vs[61.79±8.61]％,P＜0.05),ROS([7.08±0.51]vs[5.06±0.52]μmol/L,P＞0.05),and SOD([100.65±10.59]vs[139.05±14.71]U/ml,P＜0.05).TEM revealed significantly improved ultrastructure of sperm mitochondria after treatment with JJD.No serious adverse reactions were observed in either group dur-ing follow-up.Conclusion:JJD,superior to natural vitamin E and L-carnitine oral solution,can safely and effectively increase the percentages of PMS and MNS,MMP and the level of seminal plasma SOD,reduce sperm DFI and seminal plasma ROS,and improve the ultrastructure of sperm mitochondria in patients with ATZ.The underlying mechanism of action may be related to its ability of im-proving the structure and function of sperm mitochondria via antioxidant stress.

AIM To explore the clinical effects of Shuilu Erxian Pills combined with Modified Didang Decoction on patients with early and middle stage diabetic nephropathy.METHODS Eighty-three patients were randomly assigned into control group(42 cases)for 12-week administration of Irbesartan Tablets,and observation group(41 cases)for 12-week administration of Shuilu Erxian Pills,Modified Didang Decoction and Irbesartan Tablets.The changes in clinical effects,TCM syndrome scores,blood glucose indices(FBG,HbA1c),blood lipid indices(TC,TG),renal function indices(BUN,Scr,24 h UTP,eGFR),inflammatory factors(IL-1β,hs-CRP,IL-6,TNF-α,IL-18,TGF-β1),immune function indices(lymphocyte,neutrophil,CD8+,CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+)and incidence of adverse reactions were detected.RESULTS The observation group demonstrated higher total effective rate than the control group(P＜0.05).After the treatment,the observation group displayed decreased TCM syndrome scores,blood glucose indices,blood lipid indices,BUN,Scr,24 h UTP,inflammatory factors,CD8+(P＜0.05),reduced lymphocyte,neutrophil(P＜0.05),and increased eGFR,CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+(P＜0.05),which were more obvious than those in the control group(except for HbA1c,TG,SCr,24 h UTP,lymphocyte,neutrophil)(P＜0.05).No significant difference in incidence of adverse reactions was found between the two groups(P＞0.05).CONCLUSION For the patients with early and middle stage diabetic nephropathy,Shuilu Erxian Pills combined with Modified Didang Decoction can safely and effectively improve clinical symptoms,whose mechanism may contribute to the reduction of inflammatory levels and improvement of immune functions.
