Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease. At present, levodopa and other drugs are mainly used for dopamine supplementation therapy. However, the absorption of levodopa in the gastrointestinal tract is unstable and its half-life is short, and long-term use of levodopa will lead to the end-of-dose deterioration, dyskinesia, the "ON-OFF" phenomenon and other symptoms. Therefore, new preparations need to be developed to improve drug efficacy, reduce side effects or improve compliance of patients. Based on the above clinical needs, this review briefly introduced the preparation modification strategies for the treatment of PD through case analysis, in order to provide references for the research and development of related preparations.

A new method for simultaneous determination of 23 kinds of per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances(PFASs)(13 kinds of perfluoro carboxylic acids,4 kinds of perfluoro sulfonic acids,and 6 kinds of new substitutes)in plant leaf tissue by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(UHPLC-MS/MS)using automatic online solid phase extraction(SPE)to remove the matrix interference components in plant crude extracts was developed.The plant leaf samples were extracted twice with 1%formic acid-methanol solution,then evaporated to dry,redissolved with 70%methanol solution,and directly injected for analysis.After 23 kinds of target PFASs were purified automatically by online SPE with a WAX column,the six-way valve was switched to rinse PFASs onto an alkaline mobile phase system-compatible C18 analytical column.Then,the 23 kinds of target PFASs were separated within 16 min by gradient elution using a binary mobile phase system of methanol/water(Containing 0.4%ammonium hydroxide).Tandem mass spectrometry was performed in multiple reaction monitoring(MRM)mode for online detection of various PFASs,and quantification was carried out by internal standard method.The results of the method validation showed that satisfactory average recoveries of 23 kinds of PFASs in plant leaf samples(64.2%-125.5%),precision(relative standard deviations(RSDs)of 0.7%-12.8%),linearity(R2＞0.990),and sensitivity(the detection limits(S/N=3)were in the range of 0.02-0.50 μg/kg)were achieved.Finally,this method was used to detect PFASs in the marine green tide algae(Enteromorpha prolifera)and several tree leaves,and a total of 6 kinds of PFASs were detected,in which PFBA was the main contaminant.Compared with the reported offline SPE methods,the proposed online SPE technique significantly simplified the sample pretreatment process and provided an automatic,simple,and environment-friendly method for the routine monitoring of legacy and emerging PFASs in plant tissues.

Platycodonis Radix is the dry root of Platycodon grandiflorum of Campanulaceae, which has a variety of pharmacological effects and is a commonly used bulk Chinese medicine. In this study, the chloroplast genome sequences of six P. grandiflorum from different producing areas has been sequenced with Illumina HiSeq X Ten platform. The specific DNA barcodes were screened, and the germplasm resources and genetic diversity were analyzed according to the specific barcodes. The total length of the chloroplast genome of 6 P. grandiflorum samples was 172 260-172 275 bp, and all chloroplast genomes showed a typical circular tetrad structure and encoded 141 genes. The comparative genomics analysis and results of amplification efficiency demonstrated that trnG-UCC and ndhG_ndhF were the potential specific DNA barcodes for identification the germplasm resources of P. grandiflorum. A total of 305 P. grandiflorum samples were collected from 15 production areas in 9 provinces, for which the fragments of trnG-UCC and ndhG_ndhF were amplificated and the sequences were analyzed. The results showed that trnG-UCC and ndhG_ndhF have 5 and 11 mutation sites, respectively, and 5 and 7 haplotypes were identified, respectively. The combined analysis of the two sequences formed 13 haplotypes (named Hap1-Hap13), and Hap4 is the main genotype, followed by Hap1. The unique haplotypes possessed by the three producing areas can be used as DNA molecular tags in this area to distinguish from the germplasm resources of P. grandiflorum from other areas. The haplotype diversity, nucleotide diversity and genetic distance were 0.94, 4.79×10^-3 and 0.000 0-0.020 3, respectively, suggesting that the genetic diversity was abundant and intraspecific kinship was relatively close. This study laid a foundation for the identification of P. grandiflorum, the protection and utilization of germplasm resources, and molecular breeding.

Objective To investigate the effect of rats'injuries and its mechanism caused by specific dose of radiation combined with decompression exposure.Methods 81 male SD rats were randomly divided into control group(n=9),radiation group(n=18),radiation+low-load decompression group(n=18),radiation+medium-load decompression group(n=18),and radiation+high-load decompression group(n=18).In addition to control group,the rats were irradiated with 60Co γ rays at 4 Gy and then underwent rapid escape experiments.The high-pressure exposure schemes were to stay underwater 57 m for 30 min,45 min or 60 min and reduce to normal pressure within(30±5)s,respectively.The high-pressure exposure was not carried out in radiation group.The behavior and death of rats in each group were observed 0.5 h after leaving the cabin.Blood(abdominal aorta)and lung tissues were collected at 3 h and 72 h,respectively.The changes of lung wet-dry weight ratio(W/D),lung pathology and serum levels of interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-6,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),superoxide dismutase(SOD),malondialdehyde(MDA),nitric oxide(NO),intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1)and thromboxane B2(TXB2)were analyzed.Results Compared with control group and radiation group,radiation+low-load decompression group showed no significant difference in the injury and death rate of rats(P＞0.05),while radiation+medium-load decompression group and radiation+high-load decompression group showed significantly increase of the injury and death rate of rats(P＜0.05).Compared with control group,other groups showed no significant change in pulmonary W/D at 3 h(P＞0.05),and increased at 72 h(P＜0.05).HE staining showed that compared with control group,radiation group showed mild lung interstitial edema,while radiation+low-load decompression group showed obvious pulmonary tissue edema and a small number of red blood cells exudated in the alveolar cavity.The edema,congestion and inflammatory cell infiltration of lung tissue were more serious in radiation+medium-load decompression group and radiation+high-load decompression group.Compared with control group and radiation group,all radiation+decompression groups showed an increase in serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α,MDA,NO,ICAM-1 and TXB2(P＜0.05),and a decrease in SOD activity(P＜0.05).Compared with radiation+low-load decompression group,radiation+medium-load decompression group and radiation+high-load decompression group showed increase in serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6,MDA,ICAM-1 and TXB2(P＜0.05),and decrease in activity of SOD(P＜0.05).Except for control group,serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α,MDA,NO,ICAM-1 and TXB2 were decreased at 72 h compared with 3 h(P＜0.05),and SOD activity was increased at 72 h in all groups(P＜0.05).Conclusions High-load decompression can increase the injury and death rate of rats exposed to radiation and high pressure.The potential mechanism of the combined injury effect of radiation and decompression was related to inflammation,immune stress,oxidative damage,vasomotor activity and coagulation mechanism.

To reduce the subjectivity and uncertainty present in the current international methods of drug value pricing when converting value into monetary prices,based on the hedonic pricing theory,it considers the post-negotiation price between manufacturers and payers as a reasonable price reference in the value pricing of Chinese patent medicine.By constructing an indicator system for the characteristics of Chinese patent medicine,it selects and measures the value characteristic variables that affect the price of Chinese patent medicine.It serves as the theoretical foundation and research basis for establishing a Hedonic price model between characteristic price variables and negotiation prices,thereby promoting the enhancement of rationality and objectivity in value-guided pricing of Chinese patent medicine.

Objective To integrate tumor proliferation and immune-related biomarkers to construct a nomogram prediction model for predicting the prognosis of ovarian cancer patients.Methods We collected clinical information from patients diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC)between 2009 and 2013.Immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the expression levels of KI67,epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)and programmed death-ligand 1(PD-Ll)in tumor tissues.We employed Lasso-Cox regression to identify variables and construct the nomogram model.We used time-dependent receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,concordance index,calibration curves,and decision curve analysis(DC A)curves to assess the model's discrimination,calibration,and net clinical benefit ability,respectively.Additionally,we conducted Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to assess the prognostic value of the model's risk score.Results We included a total of 131 EOC patients who were randomly assigned to the training set(n=79)and validation set(n=52)in a 6∶4 ratio.Lasso-Cox regression identified seven variables for constructing the nomogram prediction model.The AUCs for 1-,4-,and 6-year overall survival in the training set were 0.911,0.943,and 0.968,respectively,with a consistency index of 0.86[95％confidence interval(CI):0.81-0.91].In the validation set,the AUCs for 1-,4-,and 6-year overall survival were 0.830,0.797,and 0.828,respectively,with a consistency index of 0.71(95％CI:0.64-0.78).The calibration curves in both training and validation sets demonstrated strong agreement between model-predicted survival and actual outcomes(all P＞0.05).DCA curves indicated that the modeled net clinical benefit outperformed TNM staging.Patients with high-risk scores in the model exhibit poorer overall survival(P＜0.01)and progression-free survival(P＜0.01).Conclusion The successful development and validation of a nomogram prediction model based on tumor proliferation and immune-related biomarkers offer an efficient and straightforward clinical tool.This tool holds promise for enabling personalized treatment strategies for patients with ovarian cancer.

Objective Viral encephalitis is an infectious disease severely affecting human health.It is caused by a wide variety of viral pathogens,including herpes viruses,flaviviruses,enteroviruses,and other viruses.The laboratory diagnosis of viral encephalitis is a worldwide challenge.Recently,high-throughput sequencing technology has provided new tools for diagnosing central nervous system infections.Thus,In this study,we established a multipathogen detection platform for viral encephalitis based on amplicon sequencing. Methods We designed nine pairs of specific polymerase chain reaction(PCR)primers for the 12 viruses by reviewing the relevant literature.The detection ability of the primers was verified by software simulation and the detection of known positive samples.Amplicon sequencing was used to validate the samples,and consistency was compared with Sanger sequencing. Results The results showed that the target sequences of various pathogens were obtained at a coverage depth level greater than 20×,and the sequence lengths were consistent with the sizes of the predicted amplicons.The sequences were verified using the National Center for Biotechnology Information BLAST,and all results were consistent with the results of Sanger sequencing. Conclusion Amplicon-based high-throughput sequencing technology is feasible as a supplementary method for the pathogenic detection of viral encephalitis.It is also a useful tool for the high-volume screening of clinical samples.

With the increasing proportion of human papilloma virus(HPV)infection in the pathogenic factors of oro-pharyngeal cancer,a series of changes have occurred in the surgical treatment.While the treatment mode has been im-proved,there are still many problems,including the inconsistency between diagnosis and treatment modes,the lack of popularization of reconstruction technology,the imperfect post-treatment rehabilitation system,and the lack of effective preventive measures.Especially in terms of treatment mode for early oropharyngeal cancer,there is no unified conclu-sion whether it is surgery alone or radiotherapy alone,and whether robotic minimally invasive surgery has better func-tional protection than radiotherapy.For advanced oropharyngeal cancer,there is greater controversy over the treatment mode.It is still unclear whether to adopt a non-surgical treatment mode of synchronous chemoradiotherapy or induction chemotherapy combined with synchronous chemoradiotherapy,or a treatment mode of surgery combined with postopera-tive chemoradiotherapy.In order to standardize the surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer in China and clarify the indications for surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer,this expert consensus,based on the characteristics and treat-ment status of oropharyngeal cancer in China and combined with the international latest theories and practices,forms consensus opinions in multiple aspects of preoperative evaluation,surgical indication determination,primary tumor re-section,neck lymph node dissection,postoperative defect repair,postoperative complication management prognosis and follow-up of oropharyngeal cancer patients.The key points include:① Before the treatment of oropharyngeal cancer,the expression of P16 protein should be detected to clarify HPV status;② Perform enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the maxillofacial region before surgery to evaluate the invasion of oropharyngeal cancer and guide precise surgical resec-tion of oropharyngeal cancer.Evaluating mouth opening and airway status is crucial for surgical approach decisions and postoperative risk prediction;③ For oropharyngeal cancer patients who have to undergo major surgery and cannot eat for one to two months,it is recommended to undergo percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy before surgery to effectively improve their nutritional intake during treatment;④ Early-stage oropharyngeal cancer patients may opt for either sur-gery alone or radiation therapy alone.For intermediate and advanced stages,HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer general-ly prioritizes radiation therapy,with concurrent chemotherapy considered based on tumor staging.Surgical treatment is recommended as the first choice for HPV unrelated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(including primary and re-current)and recurrent HPV related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma after radiotherapy and chemotherapy;⑤ For primary exogenous T1-2 oropharyngeal cancer,direct surgery through the oral approach or da Vinci robotic sur-gery is preferred.For T3-4 patients with advanced oropharyngeal cancer,it is recommended to use temporary mandibu-lectomy approach and lateral pharyngotomy approach for surgery as appropriate;⑥ For cT1-2N0 oropharyngeal cancer patients with tumor invasion depth＞3 mm and cT3-4N0 HPV unrelated oropharyngeal cancer patients,selective neck dissection of levels ⅠB to Ⅳ is recommended.For cN+HPV unrelated oropharyngeal cancer patients,therapeutic neck dissection in regions Ⅰ-Ⅴ is advised;⑦ If PET-CT scan at 12 or more weeks after completion of radiation shows intense FDG uptake in any node,or imaging suggests continuous enlargement of lymph nodes,the patient should undergo neck dissection;⑧ For patients with suspected extracapsular invasion preoperatively,lymph node dissection should include removal of surrounding muscle and adipose connective tissue;⑨ The reconstruction of oropharyngeal cancer defects should follow the principle of reconstruction steps,with priority given to adjacent flaps,followed by distal pedicled flaps,and finally free flaps.The anterolateral thigh flap with abundant tissue can be used as the preferred flap for large-scale postoperative defects.

Objective To analyze the efficacy and safety of transurethral resection of bladder neck combined with intraoperative and postoperative regular injection of triamcinolone acetonide in the treatment of bladder neck contracture(BNC)after radical prostatectomy(RP).Methods Clinical data of 19 patients with BNC after RP who underwent transurethral resection of bladder neck combined with intraoperative and postoperative regular triamcinolone acetonide treatment in our hospital during Mar.2018 and Mar.2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The changes in international prostate symptom score(IPSS),quality of life score(QoL)and complications were analyzed before operation,3 and 12 months after operation,and at the end of follow-up.Results All patients completed the follow-up,10 of whom received one treatment.Of the 9 patients with recurrence,6 received 2 treatments(including 2 cases of recurrence after surgery)and 1 received 3 treatments.After a mean follow-up of 3 years,the success rate of one treatment was 52.6％(10/19),and the cumulative success rate was 73.7％(14/19).The IPSS and QoL at each follow-up time point were significantly improved compared with those before surgery(P＜0.05).Postoperative complications included epididymitis in 2 cases(10.5％),transient hematuria in 2 cases(10.5％),and urinary incontinence in 11 cases(57.9％),including 6 new cases of urinary incontinence,and 5 cases whose urinary incontinence lasted to the end of follow-up.Conclusion Bladder neck resection combined with intraoperative and postoperative regular triamcinolone acetonide injection has a successful rate of 73.7％in the treatment of BNC after RP.However,some patients require multiple operations,and the incidence of postoperative urinary incontinence is high and the recovery is slow.

italic>Acanthopanax senticosus is one of the genuine regional herb in Northeast China. In this study, we identified the germplasm resources of commercial A. senticosus samples based on atpI and atpB_rbcL according to the previous chloroplast genome sequencing results, and determinated the content of syringin by HPLC to evaluated the quality of commercial samples. A total of 80 A. senticosus samples were collected from 47 cities in 24 provinces. DNA was extracted to amplify the products of atpI and atpB_rbcL by PCR. The results showed that 7 haplotypes (H2, H5, H8, H10, H12, H14, H23) were formed by the combined analysis of the two gene fragments. H2 from Yichun in Heilongjiang, Shangzhi in Harbin, Suihua in Heilongjiang, Fushun in Liaoning, Benxi in Liaoning, Changbai in Jilin and Jingyu in Jilin were the dominant genotype, representing 58.75% of the total samples. H14 and H23 were the unique haplotypes of the producing area. It is speculated that the commercial A. senticosus samples with haplotypes of H14 and H23 are from Raohe, Shuangyashan, Heilongjiang and Mingshui, Suihua, Heilongjiang, respectively. HPLC analysis indicated that the content of syringin in 73.96% of the samples met the Pharmacopoeia standards. There was a significant difference in the content of syringin among the samples, ranging from 0.003 7% to 0.524 5%, with a difference of 0.520 8%, indicating that the quality of the samples in the market of A. senticosus was uneven. However, there were no significant differences in the contents of syringin in the commercial A. senticosus among different haplotypes. The content of syringin in the haplotype H23 in the market sample is relatively high, so it may be a germplasm with better quality. This study researched the germplasm resources and medicinal materials quality of commercial A. senticosus samples and will help guide the commercial circulation, reasonable medication of A. senticosus, and the screening of excellent germplasm.
