ObjectiveTo compare the differences in color， odor， coumarin content and microbial community composition of Angelicae Dahuricae Radix（ADR） during different drying processes， and to explore the correlation between changes in microbial community composition and changes in quality indexes of ADR. MethodsThe fresh ADR was processed at three drying temperatures（50， 70， 100 ℃） by drying and steaming cutting， semi-fresh cutting and drying， fresh cutting and drying， and sulfur fumigation methods. The color values of samples were extracted by Adobe Photoshop 2022 software and subjected to principal component analysis（PCA）， electronic nose was used to identify the odor information of medicinal powders and subjected to loadings analysis， PCA， and linear discriminant analysis（LDA）， and high performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） was used to determine the contents of five coumarins（bergapten， oxypeucedanin， imperatorin， phellopterin， isoimperatorin）. The samples for microbial detection were taken from fresh dried samples， 50 ℃（dried and steamed cut， sulfur fumigated） samples， and 100 ℃（dried and steamed cut） samples when the water content was 50% and 14%， respectively. And the changes of microbial community composition during processing were determined by high-throughput sequencing method. The relationship between the changes of microbial community composition and the changes of odor， color and active component content of ADR during drying process was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. ResultsThe color quantification results showed that an increase in drying temperature led to the decrease of brightness value（L）， and the increases of red-green value（a） and yellow-blue value（b）， and the change of processing method had no obvious effect on the color of medicinal materials. The results of odor quantification showed that W1S， W2S， W5S， W2W and W1W sensor were sensitive to the odor changes of ADR and could be used to distinguish ADR decoction pieces from different processing methods. The results of HPLC showed that the coumarin content of ADR decreased with the increase of drying temperature and the delay of processing time， the optimal processing method was drying and steaming cutting method， and the optimal temperature was 50 ℃. High-throughput sequencing results showed that the dominant bacteria in ADR during processing were Achromobacter， Agrobacterium， Nocardioides， Mycobacterium and Enterobacter， the dominant fungi were Coprinopsis， Meyerozyma and Apiotrichum. The results of correlation analysis showed that the quality indexes of ADR were positively correlated with Agrobacterium， Mycobacterium in bacteria， Candida in fungi， and negatively correlated with Bacillus in bacteria. ConclusionThere are significant differences in the color， odor， coumarin content and microbial community composition of ADR in different drying processes， and the best drying method is drying and steaming cutting at 50 ℃. The relative abundance changes of 9 bacterial genera and 4 fungal genera are closely related to the quality formation of ADR during the drying process.

AIM: To compare and analyze the efficacy of femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis(FS-LASIK)with small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE)in the treatment of moderate myopia.METHODS:Retrospective study. A total of 100 patients(100 eyes)with moderate myopia admitted to our hospital from August 2022 to October 2024 were selected(all the data of the right eye were taken for study). The 52 cases in FS-LASIK group received FS-LASIK, while the 48 cases in SMILE group received SMILE. The patients were followed up for 6 mo, the visual recovery, spherical equivalent, corneal curvature, corneal Q value, central corneal thickness, corneal volume, high-order aberrations, corneal biomechanical parameters and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.RESULTS: At 3 and 6 mo after surgery, the uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA)and spherical equivalent of both groups increased compared to before surgery(all P<0.05). At 6 mo after surgery, both groups showed a decrease in corneal curvature, central corneal thickness, and corneal volume, with the FS-LASIK group having a lower corneal volume; both groups showed a great increase in Q values, with the FS-LASIK group having a higher Q value(all P<0.001); the total high-order aberration, spherical aberration, and trefoil aberration all increased in both groups, with higher values observed in the FS-LASIK group(all P<0.001); the integrated radius(IR), inverse concave radius(ICR)and deformation amplitude ratio 2(DAR2)were all increased, while the stiffness parameter at first applanation(SP-A1), the highest concavity radius(HC-Radius)and the ambrosio's relational thickness to the horizontal profile(ARTh)were all decreased in both groups(all P<0.001). There was no statistical difference in the incidence of complications between two groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Both FS-LASIK and SMILE can help improve the visual quality of patients with moderate myopia, and their early postoperative corneal morphological changes have their own characteristics. In addition, patients who receive FS-LASIK have larger corneal Q value and high-order aberrations after surgery.

Objective:To analyse the clinical significance of selective single embryo transfer by time-lapse mo-nitoring(TLM)or conventional morphology assessment(CMA)in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm in-jection and embryo transfer(IVF/ICSI-ET),and to initially explore the predictive value of Raman spectral analy-sis of embryo culture medium for clinical pregnancy rate.Methods:The study is a prospective randomized con-trolled clinical trial.We assigned 139 patients treated with IVF/ICSI-ET in Reproductive and Genetics Center of Suzhou Municipal Hospital from April 2019 to July 2020,which were randomly assigned to either the CMA or the TLM group.We performed selective single-embryo transfer(fresh cycle and FET)after selecting the optimal em-bryos with TLM or CMA respectively.If the patient's first embryo transfer was unsuccessful,a second one would be performed to compare the differences in the cumulative live birth rate of embryo transfer and other pregnancy outcomes between the two groups.Meanwhile,we collected 15 μl of embryo culture medium at day 3 after IVF/ISCI fertilization for Raman spectroscopy analysis.Results:There were no differences in cumulative live birth,cu-mulative clinical pregnancy,cumulative premature birth,cumulative early spontaneous abortion,cumulative ectopic pregnancy and LGA or SGA between TLM and CMA groups(P＞0.05).The Neonatal sex ratio in the TLM group was lower than that in the CMA group,but the difference was not significant(P＞0.05).Raman spectros-copy analysis of embryo culture medium predicted the clinical pregnancy rate with 67.21％accuracy.Conclu-sions:In young women with a good ovarian reserve,the advantage of using TLM to evaluate embryos is not obvi-ous,so we should remain vigilant that embryo selection based on morphokinetic parameters may affect the sex ratio.Raman spectroscopic analysis of embryo culture medium is not yet able to effectively predict the planting ability of embryos.

Objective: To establish a real-time fluorescence recombinase acid amplification (RAA) method for the detection of adenovirus type 3(HAdV-3)without extraction nucleic acid. Methods: According to the conserved sequence of adenovirus type 3 gene, a pair of primers and a probe were designed, and a real-time fluorescence RAA without extracting nucleic acid was established and optimizing the condition of DNA-free extraction. The sensitivity of the method was analyzed by a series of dilution and the specificity of the method was evaluated by detecting the original samples of other respiratory viruses. The clinical samples of HAdV-3 were detected and compared with the traditional real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method for nucleic acid extraction. Results: The sensitivity of the real-time fluorescence RAA method was as high as that of qPCR in the detection of 10 series diluted HAdV-3 strains. The highest corresponding CT value of qPCR was 36.87. The sensitivity of the real-time fluorescence RAA method was similar to that of the real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method . There was no cross-reaction to other common types of respiratory viruses. The two method were used to detect 56 clinical samples at the same time, and the result were completely consistent. Conclusions We provide the first report of the real-time fluorescent RAA assays for the detection of HAdV-3 without extracting nucleic acid and it has high sensitivity and specificity. Is suitable for rapid detection of HAdV-3 in clinical laboratories and on-site unite.

Objective To investigate the optimal initial concentration of microRNA22 agomir in epilepsy model induced by lithium chloride-pilocarpine after single injection of lateral ventricle.Methods 36 rats with acute temporal lobe epilepsy were randomly divided into 6 groups:the control group and the other five groups were the experimental group.All epilepsy rats were selected for right lateral ventricle injection.The control group was given negative control reagent,while the experimental group were given 0.1 mmol/L,2.5 mmol/L,5 mmol/L,10 mmol/L,20 mmol/L different concentrations of miRNA22agomir reagent.6 rats in each group were randomly selected for acute phase experiment after 3 days of administration.The expression of P2X7 in hippocampus of epilepsy rats was determined by Western blot and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR).Results Compared with control group,the protein and mRNA expression of P2X7 reduced in all of the model group.The protein and mRNA expression level of P2X7 protein in hippocampus of rats injected with 2.5 mmol/L,5 mmol/L and 10 mmol/L in each experimental group were significantly lower than that in the other two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Moreover,the protein and mRNA expression level of P2X7 were the lowest at 2.5 mmol/L injection and 10 mmol/L,and there was no significant difference between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The optimal onset concentration for unilateral lateral ventricle injection miRNA22 agomir treatment of temporal lobe epilepsy is 2.5 mmol/L.

Objective To explore the mechanism of thymoquinone (TQ) on NSCLC cytotoxicity.Methods SK-MES-1 was inoculated into 96-well plates and cultured at 20,40,60,80 and 100 μmol/L TQ for 24 h,and the IC50 of TQ was calculated.SK-MES-1 was cultured in close proximity to IC50 concentration TQ,and time-dependent was observed.The ERK inhibitor U0126 and the p38 inhibitor SB203580 were applied to SK-MES-1 and 95-D,respectively,then TQ-activated MAPK-mediated cytotoxicity were observed.The SK-MES-1 expression of p-p38,p38,p-ERK1/2,ERK1/2,pJNK and JNK protein were detected by U0126 pretreatment for 1 h and TQ-cultured for 30 min.Results ① TQ was used to mediate NSCLC cells in a concentration and time-dependent manner,and the viability of NSCLC cells was decreased.② The cell viability of 30 μmol/L TQ and 10 μmol/L U0126 +30 μmol/L TQ showed significant differences (P =0.000),but no significant difference was found when compared with 10 μmol/L SB203580 + 30 μmol/L TQ (P =1.00).10 μmol/L SB203580 + 30 μmol/L TQ was significantly different from 10 μmol/L U0126 + 30 μmol/L TQ (P =0.000).60μmol/LTQ,10μmol/LU0126 + 60μmol/LTQ,10μmol/LSB203580 + 60 μmol/L TQ showed no significant differences between every two groups (P ＞ 0.0 5).With the increase of TQ concentration,the protective effect of SB203580 on 95-D cells gradually decreased,and 10 μmol/L SB203580 +40 μmol/L TQ group was significantly different from 40 μmol/L TQ group (P =0.033).③ Western blot analysis showed that U0126 could significantly inhibit the phosphorylation of ERK1/2,phosphorylated p38 increased with the increasing of TQ concentration.However,ERK1/2 phosphorylation decreased,and JNK phosphorylation did not change significantly.Conclusion TQ can mediate NSCLC cytotoxicity through phosphorylation of p38 pathway,but not ERK1/2 pathway.
