Huopo Xialingtang is a famous classical formula for treating dampness and warmth， which is included in the Catalogue of Ancient Famous Classical Formulas（The First Batch）. In this paper， bibliometric methods was used to collect the literature related to Huopo Xialingtang， and 16 items of related literature were retrieved， involving five medical books， which were used to textual research on the origin， name， composition， drug dosage， preparation method， processing and main treatment symptoms of this formula. The results indicated that Huopo Xialingtang was originated from Yiyuan written by Shi Funan in the Qing dynasty， and and was later named and extended by He Lianchen. The composition of the proposed formula was consistent with the record of Yiyuan， and the origin of each Chinese materia medica was basically clear. Houpo was the dried bark and root bark of Magnolia officinalis， Zexie was the dried tubers of Alisma orientale， Kuxingren was the dried mature seeds of Prunus armeniaca， Doukou was the dried mature fruits of Amomum kravanh， the origin of Tuhuoxiang was consistent with the 2018 edition of Shanghai Standards of Processing Chinese Crud Drugs， and the origins of the remaining Chinese medicines were consistent with the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The converted dose of each Chinese medicine was 7.46 g for Agastache rugosa， 3.73 g for Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex， 8.39 g for Pinelliae Rhizoma Praeparatum cum Zingibere et Alumine， 11.19 g for Poria， 11.19 g for Armeniacae Semen Amarum， 14.92 g for Coicis Semen， 2.61 g for Amomi Fructus Rotundus， 5.60 g for Polyporus， 5.60 g for Alismatis Rhizoma， 14.92 g for Tetrapanacis Medulla. Huopo Xialingtang was initially used for the treatment of dampness and warmth at the beginning of the disease， and was later expanded to treat dampness obstruction， dampness-warming dysentery and so on， but always with the dampness-heat in the lungs and spleen as the pathogenesis. In modern times， the clinical application is more extensive， used in digestive， respiratory， endocrine， nervous system and other types of diseases， especially for chronic gastritis， stomach pain and fever. By combing the ancient literature of Huopo Xialingtang， we verified the origin of the formula and determined the key information of the prescription， which can provide literature reference for the clinical application and drug development of this formula.

Objective: To investigate the epidemiological and spatio-temporal characteristics of influenza in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide insights into perfecting the prevention and control strategies of influenza. Methods: Data of influenza in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2023 were collected from the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Population data of the same period were collected from the Zhejiang Health Information Network Reporting System. The epidemiological characteristics of influenza were analyzed using descriptive analysis. Vector map information was collected from the Open Street Map, and the spatio-temporal clustering characteristics of influenza were analyzed using spatial autocorrelation and spatio-temporal scanning. Results: A total of 181 501 cases of influenza were reported in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2023, with an average annual reported incidence of 653.93/105. The majority of cases were aged 5 to <15 years (59 785 cases, 32.94%). The majority of the occupations were students (78 239 cases, 43.11%) and pre-school children (33 715 cases, 18.58%). The county (city, district) with the highest reported incidence was Haining City (1 451.70/105), and the town (street) with the highest reported incidence was Chang'an Town (1 932.78/105). Spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that the incidence of influenza in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2023 had positive spatial correlations (all Moran's I>0, all P<0.05), with a high-high clustering in the southern region. Spatio-temporal scanning analysis showed that there was a spatio-temporal clustering of influenza in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2023, with the southern region being the primary-type clustering area and the period between November and January of the following year being the clustering time. Conclusion There was a significant spatio-temporal clustering of influenza in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2023, with winter being the peak season and the southern region being the primary area.

Objective : To explore the advantages of static navigation in locating calcified root canal therapy, and to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment of calcified teeth. Methods: A case of acute periapical periodontitis of anterior teeth with full-length calcification of root canal was reported. A lingual minimally invasive approach was used as a conservative method of controlling the infection of teeth and preserving the incisors through the digital guide plate. The diagnosis and treatment of this type of case were analyzed retrospectively with reference to the literature. Results: One patient complained that the pain of left anterior teeth was aggravated for 2 days. After examination, he was diagnosed with acute periapical periodontitis of 21 teeth with total root canal calcification. With the assistance of static navigation, the root canal was located after 10 minutes, the calcification was dredged for 15 minutes, and the acute pain symptoms of the patient were relieved that day. After one year of follow-up, there was no discomfort in the teeth, and the range of low-density shadow in the apical film was reduced. After 3 years of follow-up, there was no discomfort in the teeth, and the low-density shadow of the apical root was further reduced by apical film examination. As shown by the results of the literature review, static navigation technology is advantageous because the success rate of dredging calcified root canals is neither associated with the operator’s treatment experience nor the use of microscope and ultrasonic equipment. Regardless of the degree of calcification, this method can significantly reduce the iatrogenic risk, but it is closely related to the accuracy and stability of the guide plate. However, this method is not suitable for calcified teeth with calcification under root canal curvature and limited operating space. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is recommended to locate calcified root canals, and the imaging quality is an important factor that affects the correct preoperative planning. When performing static navigation endodontic treatment, thermal damage can be reduced by selecting a drill with a small diameter that matches the guide ring and cooling the drill with frozen irrigation solution. Conclusion Static navigation-assisted treatment of calcified root canals is accurate and minimally invasive, which reduces clinical treatment time, preserves the lingual approach at the incisal ridge to further ensure the integrity of teeth, and ensures the long-term preservation of affected teeth.

The etiology of tumors is complex and influenced by multiple factors, including the host and environmental conditions. Allergy is primarily driven by the immune response of helper T cell 2 (Th2). Research has shown that the Th2 immune response is closely related to tumors, which is specifically manifested through Th2 antibodies, allergy-related effector cells and mediators within the tumors, as well as tumor immune-related functions. This internal interaction mechanism will increase the complexity and challenges associated with the clinical diagnosis and treatment of tumors and allergy. The formation of allergic constitution is shaped by both congenital and acquired factors, and its physical state is closely linked to the occurrence and progression of allergic diseases. Therefore, this paper aims to explore the relationship between tumors and allergic reactions from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) constitution theory. Based on the four basic principles of the TCM constitution, including endowment inheritance theory, environment constraint theory, body-spirit composition theory, and life process theory, this exploration will focus on four aspects: genetic factors and internal disease causes, inflammatory environments and functional regulation, psychological disorders and emotional pathogenesis, as well as age structure and disease risk. Furthermore, from the perspective of constitution-disease relation of chronic disease prevention, this paper will discuss the significant importance of adjusting allergic constitution to improve both subjective symptoms and objective indicators of allergic reactions in tumor patients.

Objective To investigate and analyze the occupational stress levels and influencing factors among radiation workers in China, and provide a reference for alleviating occupational stress and promoting mental health. Methods Using the general situation questionnaire, Effort-Reward Imbalance questionnaire, and radiation protection knowledge questionnaire, a convenience sampling method was adopted to investigate the occupational stress of 243 radiation workers in Liaoning, Fujian, Guangdong, and Xinjiang provinces. The independent samples t-test, one-way analysis of variance, chi-square test, and binary logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors. Results The average score of Effort-Reward Imbalance was 0.97 ± 0.22, and 100 (41.15%) radiation workers had occupational stress. There were significant differences in the detection rate of occupational stress among radiation workers of different ages, working years in radiation positions, monthly incomes, daily sleep durations, and daily working hours (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis identified daily working hours as a factor contributing to occupational stress. Conclusion The occupational stress among radiation workers in China is relatively severe. It is recommended to pay attention to the associated risks and implement targeted intervention measures to reduce the impact of occupational stress.

Eight compounds were isolated and purified from the ethyl acetate part of 70% acetone extract of Rehmannia glutinosa by various chromatographic techniques such as silica gel, MCI gel CHP-20, ODS, Toyopearl HW-40C, combined with TLC and semi-preparative HPLC. Their structures were elucidated by modern spectroscopy techniques (NMR, MS, UV, IR), and identified as neomartynoside A (1), osmanthuside B₆ (2), martynoside (3), isomartynoside (4), (E)-p-hydroxycinnamic acid (5), caffeic acid (6), ferulic acid (7), and methyl caffeate (8). Compound 1 is a new phenylethanol glycoside, which was identified as neomartynoside A. Compound 2 was isolated from Rehmannia glutinosa for the first time. In addition, compounds 2, 6 and 7 significantly increased relative glucose consumption, showing potential hypoglycemic activity.

Background The adverse effects of long working hours, shift rotation, and job stress on the physical and mental health of occupational populations require urgent attention. Objective To investigate and compare the positive rates of WMSDs between different industries, analyze the exposure status of long working hours, shift rotation, and job stress among key occupational groups, and evaluate the impacts of these factors on WMSDs in the manufacturing and service industries. Methods The study subjects were derived from key occupational populations in Yunnan Province, recruited by the Chinese National Occupational Health Literacy Monitoring Survey in 2022. A cross-sectional design was used for this survey. The key occupational populations were recruited from the secondary industry (manufacturing industry, metal mining and beneficiation industry, and non-metal mining and beneficiation industry) by stratified random sampling and from the tertiary industry (medical and healthcare industry, education industry, environmental sanitation industry, transportation industry, and express/takeaway delivery industry) by proportional probability sampling, and 12014 front-line workers were finally included as survey participants. General information, work-related factors (shift rotation, weekly working hours, job stress, etc.) and WMSDs assessment results were obtained through a web-based self-reported questionnaire, and the associations of long working hours, shift rotation, and job stress with WMSDs were analyzed using χ² test and logistic regression. Results The average positive rate of WMSDs among the key occupational groups in Yunnan Province was 77.2%. The positive rate of WMSDs in the secondary industry group was 69.4%, while it was 81.6% in the tertiary industry group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.001). Among the eight surveyed sectors, the education sector had the highest positive rate of WMSDs (94.2%). The single-site WMSDs mainly involved the neck, shoulders, and low back. In the secondary industry, WMSDs was reported in 1−2 body parts, while in the tertiary industry, WMSDs was mainly reported in multiple (≥5) body parts. Long working hours (OR: 1.119, 1.165, 1.163, respectively), shift rotation (OR: 1.094, 1.199, 1.230, respectively), and job stress (OR: 1.795, 1.854, 2.006, respectively) were risk factors for WMSDs in the neck, shoulder, or low back, and all three were also risk factors for multi-site WMSDs. Moreover, as the number of involved body parts increased, the effects of long working hours and job stress became more pronounced. For 1-2, 3-4, and 5 or more body parts compared to no pain reported, their OR values were 0.971 (95%CI: 0.871, 1.082), 1.133 (95%CI: 1.004, 1.279), and 1.285 (95%CI: 1.155, 1.429) for long working hours, respectively, and the OR values were 1.009 (95%CI: 0.878, 1.160), 1.360 (95%CI: 1.174, 1.575), and 2.797 (95%CI: 2.471, 3.166) for job stress, respectively. Conclusion The positive rate of WMSDs is higher in the tertiary industry than that in the secondary industry among the key occupational groups in Yunnan Province. Long working hours, rotating shift work, and job stress could significantly increase the risk of WMSDs.

Vascular cognitive impairment (VCI), caused by cerebrovascular dysfunction, severely impacts the quality of life in the elderly population, yet effective therapeutic approaches remain limited. Mitophagy, a selective mitochondrial quality-control mechanism, has emerged as a critical focus in neurological disease research. Accumulating evidence indicates that mitophagy modulates oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and neuronal apoptosis. Key signaling pathways associated with mitophagy—including PINK1/Parkin, BNIP3/Nix, FUNDC1, PI3K/Akt/mTOR, and AMPK—have been identified as potential therapeutic targets for VCI. This review summarizes the mechanistic roles of mitophagy in VCI pathogenesis and explores emerging therapeutic strategies targeting these pathways, aiming to provide novel insights for clinical intervention and advance the development of effective treatments for VCI.

Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCV) was named thus because it is the causative agent of Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), with 80% of MCC cases being MCV-positive. MCV has been classified as a 2A carcinogen. It promotes carcinogenesis by integrating T antigens into the cell genome. The anti-MCV seroprevalence in the general population is as high as 90%. Usually, MCV is latent after infection in immunocompetent patients, and the incidence of MCC in immunosuppressive or defective patients, such as those with organ transplants, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and HIV infection, is remarkably high. Patients with HIV/AIDS are a typical population with acquired immunodeficiency. At present, the research on patients with HIV/AIDS and MCV infection, activation, and pathogenesis is limited. In this paper, the progress of previous research is reviewed and the relationship between HIV infection and MCV activation is systematically investigated to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of MCC in key populations, such as patients with HIV/AIDS.
