Aromatherapy refers to the method of using the aromatic components of plants in appropriate forms to act on the entire body or a specific area to prevent and treat diseases. Essential oils used in aromatherapy are hydrophobic liquids containing volatile aromatic molecules， such as limonene， linalool， linalool acetate， geraniol， and citronellol. These chemicals have been extensively studied and shown to have a variety of functions， including reducing anxiety， relieving depression， promoting sleep， and providing pain relief. Terpenoids are a class of organic molecules with relatively low lipid solubility. After being inhaled， they can pass through the nasal mucosa for transfer or penetrate the skin and enter the bloodstream upon local application. Some of these substances also have the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier， thereby exerting effects on the central nervous system. Currently， the academic community generally agrees that products such as essential oils and aromatherapy from aromatic plants have certain health benefits. However， the process of extracting a single component from it and successfully developing it into a drug still faces many challenges. Its safety and efficacy still need to be further verified through more rigorous and systematic experiments. This article systematically elaborated on the efficacy of aromatic substances， including plant extracts and natural small molecule compounds， in antibacterial and antiviral fields and the regulation of nervous system activity. As a result， a deeper understanding of aromatherapy was achieved. At the same time， the potential of these aromatic substances for drug development was thoroughly explored， providing important references and insights for possible future drug research and application.

OBJECTIVE To investigate and analyze the operational costs and current charging policies of pharmacy intravenous admixture service （PIVAS） in China， and provide a reference for promoting high-quality and sustainable development of PIVAS. METHODS Questionnaires were distributed in 30 provinces， autonomous regions， and municipalities across the country through the “Wenjuanxing” platform from May 6th to July 1st， 2022. The operational costs， charging status and suggestions of PIVAS were investigated and analyzed. RESULTS A total of 761 PIVAS participated in the survey nationwide， including 666 tertiary medical institutions， 93 secondary medical institutions， and 2 primary medical institutions. Approximately 60.58% of PIVAS had implemented a charging system that allowed charges. Among them， most PIVAS required inspection and evaluation before charging. The annual operating cost of PIVAS in China was approximately 2 098 100 yuan， with the integrated operating cost comprising 89.36% of the total， while the dispensing cost accounted for only 10.64%. Human costs emerged as the highest annual consumption （74.20%）， followed by decoration and facility maintenance costs （4.77%） and equipment acquisition costs （3.44%）. Regarding charges for different drugs nationwide， common drugs had an average charge standard of 4.39 yuan per bag while antibacterial drugs averaged 5.01 yuan per bag； hazardous drugs had an average charge of 23.17 yuan per bag， whereas parenteral nutrition solutions averaged 38.75 yuan per bag. However， the recommended average charges of the four drugs mentioned above were 6.71， 9.63， 38.35 and 44.03 yuan per bag， respectively. CONCLUSIONS At present， there is no unified inspection and evaluation standard and charging standard in China. Moreover， the current charging standard is lower than the recommended standard. It is necessary to combine operational costs and develop more reasonable and fair charging standards.

Objective To explore the functional changes of the glial lymphatic system in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage(sICH)by MR diffusion tensor imaging(DTI).Methods The clinical and imaging data of 32 sICH patients(sICH group)and 31 healthy volunteers(control group)were retrospectively collected,and the diffusivity values of DTI in different direc-tions were collected from all the subjects,the diffusion tensor imaging analysis along the perivascular space(DTI-ALPS)index was calculated,the difference of DTI-ALPS index values between the sICH group and the control group was compared,the changes in the function of the glial lymphatic system in sICH patients were evaluated,and the correlation between DTI-ALPS index and clinical indi-cators in sICH patients was further analyzed.Results The DTI-ALPS index of cerebral hemispheres on the lesions side of sICH group was significantly lower than that on the unaffected side(P＜0.01,t=-5.03),and lower than that on the left side of control group(P＜0.01,t=-9.85)and the right side(P＜0.01,t=-8.80).In addition,vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)tes-ting was performed in 8 of the 32 patients,and the levels[(187.40±19.11)pg/mL]were significantly higher than the normal range(0-142.20 pg/mL).Conclusion Through the quantitative analysis of the DTI-ALPS index,the damage to the function of the glial lymphatic system of sICH can be reflected,and perhaps the mechanism of pathophysiological changes in the brain after sICH can be reflected from a new perspective by using MR DTI technology.

Objective:To investigate the status of hepatitis E virus infection in unpaid blood donors in Wenzhou.Methods:A total of 5 241 blood samples were selected from donors who successfully donated blood between October 2022 and March 2023. These samples were tested for hepatitis E virus (HEV) through HEV-IgG antibodies, HEV-IgM antibodies, and nucleic acid tests (HEV RNA). Samples that tested positive for HEV RNA underwent quantitative detection and sequencing. Data regarding the blood donors were collected, the positive rates of each test result were recorded, and the HEV infection status among different populations was analyzed.Results:The positive rate of the HEV-IgG antibody test was 23.60% (1 237/5 241), while the positive rate of the HEV-IgM antibody test was 0.29% (15/5 241). The positive rate of the HEV RNA test was 0.08% (4/5 241). The positive rate of the HEV-IgG test increased with age ( χ2 = 379.493, P < 0.05), and males had a higher positive rate than females ( χ2 = 5.12, P < 0.05). Both the positive rates of HEV-IgG and HEV-IgM tests increased as the number of blood donations increased ( χ2 = 40.87, 8.30, both P < 0.05). Furthermore, the positive rates were significantly higher in 2023 than in 2022 ( χ2 = 51.03, 13.35, both P < 0.05), and they were also significantly higher in spring than in winter ( χ2 = 51.03, 13.35, both P < 0.05). Only one HEV RNA-positive blood donor tested positive for both HEV-IgG and HEV-IgM antibodies, while the remaining three donors tested negative. Only one case was genotyped, and it belonged to genotype Ⅳ. Conclusion:The incidence of HEV infection among unpaid blood donors in Wenzhou of Zhejiang Province is relatively high, with the prevalent HEV genotype being type Ⅳ. Characteristics such as sex, age, and the number of blood donations can be utilized as auxiliary screening reference indicators.

Objective:To describe the epidemiological characteristics and trends of leukemia incidence in Qidong between 1972 and 2021, and provide guidelines for prevention and control measures and strategies.Methods:The cancer registry data was collected and analyzed on leukemia incidence during 1972—2021 in Qidong by sex, age and time. Crude incidence rate (CR), China age-standardized rate (ASRC), world age-standardized rate (ASRW), and average annual change percentage (AAPC) was calculated by Joinpoint software. Age-period-cohort (APC) model was used to analyze the influence of age, period and birth cohort on the changes in the incidence trend of leukemia patients.Results:From 1972 to 2021, there were 2 948 patients with leukemia in Qidong, accounting for 2.00% of all cancer new cases, CR of leukemia was 5.26/10 5, ASRC was 4.34/10 5, ASRW was 4.35/10 5. The truncated incidence of 35—64 years old was 5.29/10 5, the cumulative incidence rate between the ages of 0 and 74 years old was 0.40%, the cumulative risk was 0.40%. There were 1 608 male patients, the CR, ASRC, and the ASRW were 5.81/10 5, 4.88/10 5 and 4.85/10 5. The number of female patients were 1 340, and the CR, ASRC, and the ASRW were 4.71/10 5, 3.86/10 5 and 3.91/10 5, respectively. Temporal trends indicated significant upward trends in ASRC among both gender, males and females with AAPC values of 1.41% ( P＜0.001), 1.15% ( P＜0.001), and 1.73% ( P＜0.001), respectively. The results of the APC model showed that the average net drift value of leukemia incidence in all age groups was 1.57% (95% CI, 1.24%-1.89%), and the highest value of local drift was 3.20% (95% CI, 1.63%-4.78%) in the 80~ years old group. The incidence of leukemia increased with age. With the passage of time, the risk of leukemia incidence increased gradually compared with the rate ratio of leukemia incidence (risk ratio [ RR], 1.00) in 1992—1996, the RR of leukemia incidence increased from 0.70 during 1972—1976 to 1.57 during 2017—2021. The later the cohort was born, the greater the risk of leukemia incidence compared with the relative risk of leukemia incidence ( RR, 1.00) in 1952—1956 cohort, the RR of leukemia incidence increased from 0.24 in the 1892—1896 cohort to 2.73 in the 2017—2021 cohort. Conclusions:The incidence of the leukemia has presented a rising trend in the past fifty years. Leukemia incidence increased with age, and the period and cohort effects on the risk of incidence increase. Further research is needed to investigate the risk factors related to leukemia.

Recent trends suggest that Chinese herbal medicine formulas(CHM formulas)are promising treatments for complex diseases.To characterize the precise syndromes,precise diseases and precise targets of the precise targets between complex diseases and CHM formulas,we developed an artificial intelligence-based quantitative predictive algorithm(DeepTCM).DeepTCM has gone through multilevel model cali-bration and validation against a comprehensive set of herb and disease data so that it accurately captures the complex cellular signaling,molecular and theoretical levels of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).As an example,our model simulated the optimal CHM formulas for the treatment of coronary heart disease(CHD)with depression,and through model sensitivity analysis,we calculated the balanced scoring of the formulas.Furthermore,we constructed a biological knowledge graph representing interactions by associating herb-target and gene-disease interactions.Finally,we experimentally confirmed the thera-peutic effect and pharmacological mechanism of a novel model-predicted intervention in humans and mice.This novel multiscale model opened up a new avenue to combine"disease syndrome"and"macro micro"system modeling to facilitate translational research in CHM formulas.

Objective To establish the drug use evaluation(DUE)criteria for bemiparin sodium injection,and evaluate the use of bemiparin sodium injection by weight technique for order prefer by similarity to ideal solution(TOPSIS),and to provide reference for improving the rational use of bemiparin sodium injection.Methods Based on the instructions of bemiparin sodium injection,and referring to relevant guidelines and literatures,the DUE criteria of bemiparin sodium injection was established by expert consultation.The weighted TOPSIS method was used to evaluate the rationality medication in the cases of inpatients who use bemiparin sodium injection from June to July 2021 in the Tongji Hospital of Tongji University.Results In the established DUE criteria of bemiparin sodium injection,the top two relative weight coefficients of ten secondary indicators were contraindications and adverse reaction disposal,and the bottom two were administration methods and indications.A total of 100 medical records were including.There was not a case close to the optimal regimen(Ci≥0.8)(reasonable);Ci was between 0.6 and 0.8(basically reasonable)in 83 cases(83.00％);and Ci＜0.6(unreasonable)in 17 cases(17.00％).The unreasonable uses of bemiparin sodium injection mainly appeared in off-lable uses of indications and the dosing method,a potential drug-drug interaction,inappropriate dosage,and violation of drug contraindications.Conclusion The drug use evaluation method of bemiparin sodium injection based on weighted TOPSIS method can synthesize multiple evaluation indexes,and the evaluation results are objective and reliable.The results showed that most clinical application of bemiparin sodium injection in this hospital was basically reasonable,but to provide basis for rational clinical drug use and to ensure patients'medication safety,it is necessary to accelerate the off-label evidence-based evaluation process and strengthen the management of rational drug use.

Objective:To explore the application effect of multidisciplinary integrated fracture liaison services in preventing postoperative refracture after osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCF) .Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 230 OVCF patients who were admitted to Orthopedics Department of Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from March 2022 to August 2023 were selected and they were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group by the random number table method, with 115 patients in each group. The control group received routine follow-up management after surgery, while the observation group received multidisciplinary integrated fracture liaison services on the basis of the control group, with an intervention period of 1 year for both groups. Before and after intervention, Osteoporosis Knowledge Tests (OKT), Oswestry disability index (ODI), and lumbar quantitative computed tomography (QCT) were used to evaluate the osteoporosis knowledge level, lumbar spine function and bone density of the two groups. After a one-year follow-up, the incidence of recurrent fractures was compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 7 cases fell off during the intervention period, and 110 cases were collected in the control group and 113 cases in the observation group. After intervention, the total score of OKT and the scores of all dimensions in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). After intervention, the ODI score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, and the bone density value was higher than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The incidence of recurrent fractures in the control group and observation group was respectively 20.91% (23/110) and 7.96% (9/113), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Multidisciplinary integrated fracture liaison services can effectively improve the knowledge level and bone density of postoperative patients with OVCF, improve lower back function and reduce the occurrence of recurrent fractures.

Based on high-resolution magnetic resonance tube wall imaging,reverse medical engineering modeling techniques are used to obtain individualized intracranial artery models of high prevalence in ischemic stroke.Three types of intracranial artery models,including Newtonian fluid model,non-Newtonian fluid model and non-Newtonian fluid with two-phase flow model,are established for transient numerical simulations using computational fluid dynamics method.The hemodynamic parameters such as blood flow field,wall shear stress distribution and erythrocyte volume distribution are analyzed to investigate the possible mechanisms involved in the formation and progression of intracranial atherosclerosis.It is found that blood flow velocity increased significantly at the end of the internal carotid artery and the middle cerebral artery.Low-speed vortex flow and disturbed flow appear in the local vessels.The difference in blood flow velocity between the center and the edge of the wall is large,with an obvious low-flow velocity area on the outer side.A clear central core area is formed in the stenotic wall under the action of high-speed blood flow,resulting in thinner edge layer and lower erythrocyte volume fraction.The combination of low erythrocyte distribution in the edge layer and low flow velocity on the outer side of the wall exacerbates endothelial cell necrosis,hypoxia,endothelial dysfunction,and leads to atherosclerosis.Compared with Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluid models,non-Newtonian fluid with two-phase flow model has greater variability for hemodynamic parameters and shows higher fidelity in simulating blood flow,which provides a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases.
