Objective To analyze the quality of 22 batches of Fritillariae thunbergii bulbus Formula Granules from 12 different manufacturers by using water-extraction reference substance of Fritillariae thunbergii bulbus(ZBM ERS ST)and water-extraction reference substance of Fritillariae hupehensis bulbus(HBBM ERS ST)as references.Methods Ethyl acetate-methanol-triethylamine-water(17∶1∶1∶0.5)was used as the developing solvent for high-performance thin-layer chromatography(HPTLC)fingerprint analysis.The high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)fingerprint analysis was performed on a Agilent Eclipse XDB-C18 column(4.6 mm×250 mm,5 μm)with the gradient mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.03%diethylamine solution.The column temperature was set at 25℃and evaporative light-scattering detector was used.The determination was conducted according to standard test method for measurement of Fritillariae thunbergii bulbus Formula Granules(Guangdong PFKL00117).Results The results of HPTLC and HPLC analysis showed that there are significant differences among the 22 batches of Fritillariae thunbergii bulbus Formula Granules.There were 4 batches of Fritillariae thunbergii bulbus Formula Granules from 3 manufacturers among them showed fingerprint characteristics of Fritillariae hupehensis bulbus.The total amount of peimine and peiminine in the remaining 18 batches of Fritillariae thunbergii bulbus Formula Granules was 0.291-3.179 mg·g-1,which were quite different.Conclusion Currently,the quality of Fritillariae thunbergii bulbus Formula Granules on the market varies greatly.Standardized water-extract reference substance has better applicability for the analysis of the quality of Fritillariae thunbergii bulbus Formula Granules than the control medicinal materials.

Objective:To investigate the effect of oroxylin A (OrA) on macrophage pyroptosis induced by Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( Mtb) infection and the underlying molecular mechanism. Methods:An in vitro infection model was constructed by infecting J774A.1 cells with Mtb. The MTT method was used to detect the effect of OrA on the viability of J774A.1 cells. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assay kit was used to detect the release of LDH by J774A.1 cells. Western blot was used to detect the protein levels of pyroptosis-related proteins such as NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3 (NLRP3), GSDMD-N, caspase1-p20, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC), and α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7nAChR) as well as the phosphorylation of NF-κB p65. ELISA was used to detect the levels of IL-1β in each group. Immunofluorescence was performed to detect the expression and localization of α7nAChR. Results:MTT results showed that OrA had no cytotoxicity to J774A.1 cells at concentrations below 80 μmol/L. OrA reduced the release of IL-1β, down-regulated the expression of NLRP3, GSDMD-N and caspase1-p20 at protein level, inhibited ASC oligomerization, promoted the expression of α7nAChR at protein level, and inhibited the phosphorylation of NF-κB p65. In the presence of α7nAChR agonist PNU282987, the protein levels of GSDMD-N decreased and the phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 was inhibited.Conclusions:OrA may inhibits Mtb infection-induced macrophage pyroptosis through regulating cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway.

【Objective】 To compare the perioperative blood loss between interlaminar and transforaminal approaches by percutaneous endoscopic discectomy in order to provide more reference for guiding the proper choice of surgical methods clinically. 【Methods】 We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 160 patients who underwent percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy from June 2019 to November 2020， with 80 patients in interlaminar approach group and 80 in transforaminal approach group. The blood loss was calculated according to Gross formula. 【Results】 The perioperative total blood loss （mL）， hidden blood loss （mL） and hemoglobin loss （g/L） were significantly lower in interlaminar approach group than in transforaminal approach group （119.73±179.26 vs. 158.6±190.65， 109.73±179.53 vs. 148.78±190.19， 3.76±8.12 vs. 4.31±7.62） （P<0.05）. However， there was no significant difference in visible blood loss between the two groups. 【Conclusion】 The perioperative hidden blood loss accounts for a large proportion in percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy. In addition， the interlaminar approach causes less blood loss than the transforaminal approach.

Objective: To summarize the related research results of minimally invasive treatment of anterior pelvic ring fracture, and to improve the understanding of minimally invasive treatment of anterior pelvic ring fracture. Methods: The literature of minimally invasive treatment of anterior pelvic ring fracture at domestic and overseas in recent years was reviewed, and the reduction and fixation methods of minimally invasive treatment were summarized and analyzed. Results: The pelvic reduction frame may be an effective auxiliary method for minimally invasive reduction of pelvis. The fixation methods of anterior pelvic ring include percutaneous screw fixation, stent fixation, and percutaneous plate fixation. Conclusion: One kind of fixation is not applicable to all types of anterior pelvic ring fracture, and the fixation method should be selected according to the type of fracture and the patient's condition to minimize the complications.

Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is a global medical challenge. Early case recognition and initiating the chain of survival is associated with good prognosis of these patients. On the basis of former research, American Heart Association (AHA) published a policy statement related to telecommunicator cardiopulmonary resuscitation (T-CPR) in March 2020, and introduced its specific procedures, standards and precautions. To assist Chinese doctors in better understanding of the T-CPR, and give a reference for the emergency curing of OHCA, the guideline was translated and interpreted in this paper.

Objective: To investigate the clinical presentation, clinicopathologic features, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL). Methods: Four cases of ATLL from Fujian Cancer Hospital between October 2017 and May 2018 were analyzed using hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemical stains and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for HTLV-1 provirus genes. The relevant literature was reviewed. Results: There were two males and two females, age range 38-80 years. All patients were from coastal cities of Fujian province. Clinical presentations including lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly and splenomegaly were detected in most patients; skin lesion, hypercalcemia and lymphocytosis were also commonly detected.Histologically, there was diffuse effacement of the normal architecture by tumor cells infiltration. The inflammatory background is usually sparse, with scanty eosinophils. The atypical lymphoid cells were typically medium to large sized with pronounced nuclear pleomorphism, irregular nuclei, chromatin clumping and prominent nucleoli. Blast-like cells with transformed nuclei were present in variable proportions. Giant cells with convoluted or cerebriform nuclear contours may be present. Rare cases may be composed predominantly of anaplastic tumor cells. Characteristic "flower cells" with large multi-lobated nuclei can be seen. The tumor cells were strongly positive for CD2, CD3, CD5, CD4 and CD25, but negative for CD7, CD8 and cytotoxic molecules (including TIA-1, Granzyme B and perforin). In three cases, the large transformed cells were positive for CD30. In one case, the anaplastic large cells were diffusely and strongly positive for CD30. All cases were negative for EBER, but positive for HTLV-1 provirus. Conclusions ATLL is a rare type of T cell lymphoma with unique clinical and pathological features, and should be distinguished from peripheral T cell lymphoma, NOS, ALK negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma and mycosis fungoides. Hypercalcemia, systemic disease, characteristic "flower cells" and specific immunophenotypic profile of CD3⁺, CD4⁺, CD25⁺, and CD7^- are highly suggestive. However, ATLL can only be confirmed if the presence of HTLV-1 provirus.

Objective To investigate the application of CT image and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) image registration based on 3D Slicer software in image-guided radiotherapy for uterine cervical neoplasms. Methods Based on 3D Slicer software and Slicer RT toolkit, 10 positioning CT images and 50 CBCT images of 10 patients with uterine cervical neoplasms in Henan Provincial People's Hospital between January 2018 and October 2018 had rigid registration and b-spline deformation registration respectively. The dice similarity coefficient (DSC) and Hausdorff distance (HD) of the bladder, rectum, femoral head, spinal cord, and body of CT-CBCT images were compared by using paired t-test before and after the registration. Results Pre-registration, rigid registration and after b-spline deformation registration of CT images and CBCT images, the DSC in the bladder (0.459±0.177, 0.528±0.184, 0.542±0.187, respectively), the rectum (0.564±0.141, 0.632±0.091, 0.684±0.097, respectively), the femoral head (0.695±0.088, 0.833± 0.030, 0.865±0.027, respectively), the spinal cord (0.587±0.119, 0.746±0.085, 0.834±0.032, respectively) and the body surface (0.922±0.013, 0.948±0.011, 0.959±0.009, respectively) showed an increased trend; HD in the bladder (12.8±7.2, 12.2±7.1, 11.7±7.3, respectively), the rectum (5.0±1.8, 4.4±1.2, 3.4±1.2, respectively), the femoral head (3.6±1.2, 1.8±0.5, 1.5 ±0.5, respectively), the spinal cord (4.0 ±1.0, 2.7 ±1.3, 1.8 ±0.5, respectively) and the body surface (6.3±2.1, 5.2±2.0, 4.3±2.0, respectively) showed a decreased trend. The differences of pairwise comparison in the same parts were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusions Both rigid registration and b-spline deformation registration of CT-CBCT images based on 3D Slicer softwarecan improve the radiotherapy accuracy of uterine cervical neoplasms, and b-spline deformation registration has more significant advantages.

Objective This study is to investigate the safety,feasibility and efficacy of the complete retroperitoneal robotic nephroureterectomy in treatment of upper urinary tract tumors.Methods Three patients underwent complete retroperitoneal robotic nephroureterectomy due to the upper urinary epithelial tumor from August to October in 2017 in our institution.The 3 patients' demographics and tumor characteristics,including age,gender,body mass index (kg/m2),ASA score,Charlson comorbidity index,tumor laterality and diameter (cm),were 48/75/68 years old,male/female/female,22.9/20.8/21.3,2/2/2,0/2/1,left/right/left,3.2/2.0/1.4,respectively.All patients had complained about the hematuria and accepted the abdominal CT and CTU examination,preoperatively.All patients were diagnosed localized upper urinary tract malignant tumors based on these images.The tumor of case 1 located in the renal pelvis.The tumor of case 2 located in the upper segment of the ureter.The tumor of case 3 located in the lower segment of the ureter.The operations were performed under general anesthesia,and patients were positioned in full flank.A total of five ports were used in the procedure and placed in the following order.The initial port (Port 1) was a robotic camera port,which was placed 3 cm above the intersection of the mid axillary line and the iliac crest.The next three ports (Port 2 to Port 4) were all 8 mm robotic instrument ports and placed at the intersection of posterior axillary line and costal margin,3 cm above the intersection of anterior axillary line and costal margin,and 4 cm medial and inferior to anterior superior iliac spine.The fifth port (Port 5) was a 12 mm assistant port and placed at 3 cm medial and superior to anterior superior iliac spine.Our completely robotic technique did not require patient repositioning and port reassignment,but redocking of the robotic arms was needed.Nephrectomy was performed according to the routine retroperitoneal laparoscopic procedure.Once the remainder of the kidney was mobilized,the dissection was directed down the pelvis to mobilize the distal segment of the ureter.The bladder defect was then closed by Endo-GIA stapler or absorbable sutures.Results All procedures were successful and smooth,with no intraoperative or postoperative complications.Operative duration (min) and estimated blood loss (ml) was 245/270/239,100/100/100,respectively.Postoperative pain measured by the visual analog pain scale(VASP) at day 1,day 2,day 3 was 5/4/4,4/3/3,2/2/1,respectively.Time off oral intake (d),duration of drainage (d),active time post-operation (h) and hospital stay (d) was 2/2/2,3/2/3,24/32/32,3/2/4,respectively.Intravesical chemotherapy was performed within 24 h after the operation.Postoperatively,the urinary catheter was left in place for 2 weeks.Pathological examination confirmed papillary urothelial carcinoma in all cases.Conclusions The initial experience shows that the complete retroperitoneal robotic nephroureterectomy is a safe,feasible and efficacious procedure,but in this early stage the clinical indications should be strictly controlled.

Objective: To summarize the general concept of lateral wall, the causes of lateral wall injury, and surgical strategies in order to improve the understanding of lateral wall and reduce the complications of operation. Methods: The related literature on lateral wall was extensively reviewed, summarized, and analyzed. Results: The superior extent of the lateral wall is vastus lateralis ridge and the inferior extent is the intersection between the lateral femoral cortex and a line drawn at a tangent to the inferior femoral neck. The integrity of the lateral wall is important to prevent the failure of fixation and reoperation of intertrochanteric fractures. The main causes of injury are that there is no suitable typing criteria as a guide, the fracture pattern shown by X-ray does not match with the actual situation of the fracture, the type of fracture is special, and the operation is improper. The main treatment is to reconstruct the lateral wall and choose different reconstruction methods according to different fracture patterns. Conclusion: The lateral wall is very important for the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture. Lateral wall fracture should be internal fixation in order to minimize the risk of reoperation.

Objective This study is to explore the safety,feasibility and efficacy of robotic laparoendoscopic single-site(LESS) zero-ischemia partial nephrectomy.Methods Two patients underwent robotic laparoendoscopic single-site zero-ischemia partial nephrectomy by our urologic surgical team at 22-May-2017 and 31-May-2017 in our institution.The salient patient demographics and tumor characteristics,including age,gender,body mass index (kg/m2),Charlson Co-morbidity Index (Age-weighted),tumor laterality,diameter (cm),R.E.N.A.L.nephrometry score and preoperative split renal function GFR [ml/(min · 1.73 m2)] were:73/56,female/male,25.2/19.8,2/0,lcft/right,1.8/1.4,5a/4a,left 43.8、right 49.2/left 38.8 、right 48.7 respectively.A 2-3 cm longitudinal skin incision was made at 4 cm below the inferior margin of rib arch at the level of midaxillary line (case NO.1) or peri-umbilicus (case NO.2).The da Vinci Si robotic Single-siteTM Port was inserted.The line of Toldt was incised with the colon medially mobilized.Gerota's fascia was opened,the main renal artery or its branches were dissected,then the renal mass fully dissected and exposed.The renal mass was entirely removed with approximately 0.5-1.0 cm surrounding normal renal parenchyma (unclamping in case NO.1,and selective branch clamping in case NO.2) and kidney reconstruction was conducted with 1-0 Quill Suture via hem-o-lock sliding technique.Results The two procedures were smoothly completed without any extra skin incision.Operative duration,estimated blood loss and skin incision length was respectively 230/190 min,100/60 ml,3.6/2.5 cm.Duration of two selective renal artery branches clamping in case NO.2 was 39 and 24 min.Postoperative pain measured by the visual analog pain scale (VASP) at day 1,day 2,day 3 was 5/4,3/3,2/1,Time off oral intake,duration of drainage and length of stay after surgery was 2/4 d、2/4 d、6/7d,respectively.The recovery of both patients were uncomplicated and discharged smoothly.Pathological examination revealed oncocytoma in case NO.1 and papillary renal cell carcinoma in case NO.2.Conclusions The initial experience shows the robotic laparoendoscopic single-site zero-ischemia partial nephrectomy is a safe,feasible and efficacious procedure.It may exhibit clinical benefits for patients in terms of pain control,convalescence and cosmesis,but in this early stage the clinical indications should be strictly controlled.
