The paper is to establish an UPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of 19 components in Microctis Folium from different production areas. The 50% methanol was used as extraction solvent. The Agilent ZORBAX SB C18 (150 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.8 μm) column was used; mobile phase was acetonitrile - 0.1% acetic acid with gradient elution, flow rate was 0.3 mL·min-1, colume temperature was 30 ℃, and the injection volume was 2 μL; electrospray ionizaton source was used and detected in negative ion mode. The results showed that the established UPLC-MS/MS method could well separate the 19 components, and the methodological investigation results of 19 components were good. By means of orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), 28 batches of Microctis Folium samples from different production areas can be divided into three categories, Guangdong, Guangxi and Hainan are each classified into one category, and 10 signature compounds which affecting the quality differences of different production areas were screened out. The established method is accurate, reliable, sensitive and reproducible. It can provide a basis for the establishment of the quality standard of Microctis Folium, as well as for safety and quality research.

Myeloid neoplasms (MNs) belong to a group of hematological malignancies characterized by the abnormal biological functions of hematopoietic stem progenitor cells. The abnormal immune and hematopoietic microenvironment of patients with MN interact with malignant clonal hematopoietic stem cells, promoting the occurrence and development of their diseases. MN large granular lymphocyte proliferation (MN-LGLP) is a special and rare clinical phenomenon in this type of disease. Currently, research on this disease in domestic and international cohorts is limited. This study analyzes the clinical and laboratory characteristics of this type of patient and explores the impact of LGLP on the clinical characteristics and survival of patients with MN. Patients with MN-LGLP are prone to neutropenia and splenomegaly. The presence of LGLP is not a risk factor affecting the survival of patients with MN-LGLP. STAG, ASXL1, and TET2 are the most common accompanying gene mutations in MN-LGLP, and patients with MN-LGLP and STAG2 mutations have poor prognoses.

Objective:To establish a prediction method of diopter based on sequence of ocular biological parameters.Methods:A stratified random cluster sampling method was used to extract the dataset. The dataset consisted of data collected from January 2022 to January 2023 by the Eye & ENT Hospital, Fudan University, from children aged 5 to 13 years in 2 key schools and 2 general schools of Yangpu District, Shanghai. Children’s ocular biological parameters, including sex, age, diopter, axial length, corneal curvature, and anterior chamber depth were collected. The slope of the optimally fitted straight line was calculated using the least squares method. The least square-back propagation (BP) neural network model was established by combining baseline data and the pre-processed rate of the change of ocular biological parameters. The dataset was divided into the training set and the validation set according to the ratio of 8:2 for five-fold cross-validation. The model performance was evaluated by using the mean absolute error (MAE), mean squared error (MSE), root mean square error (RMSE), correlation coefficient R, and coefficient of determination R2. Results:The optimal performances of R2, R, RMSE, MAE, and MSE of the least square-BP neural network model were 0.96, 0.981 9, 0.214 2, 0.139 9 D, 0.045 9, respectively. The regression equation between the predicted value and the true value of the diopter was y=0.97 x+ 0.014 8, R2=0.97, with good correlation. In the internal verification, MAE values of the diopter at three, six, nine, and twelve months of follow-up were 0.110 1, 0.136 0, 0.153 7, and 0.184 8 D, respectively, which achieved clinically acceptable performance (less than 0.25 D). In the external validation, the errors were less than 0.25 D at all ages. Conclusions:A prediction method of diopter based on sequence of ocular biological parameters was successfully developed.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and medication options of patients with elderly-onset epilepsy and influencing factors for medication efficacy.Methods:A total of 213 patients with elderly-onset epilepsy (age of onset≥65 years) were selected from Epilepsy Outpatient, Department of Neurology, First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from February 1999 to March 2023. General data, imaging findings and follow-up results of these patients were collected. Seizure frequencies and types, medication types, and medication efficacy were analyzed retrospectively. According to medication efficacy, these patients were divided into effective anti-seizure medications (ASMs) group and ineffective ASMs group (effective ASMs was defined as having no seizures or seizure reduction>50% at 6 months after medication, and ineffective ASMs as having seizure reduction≤50% or seizure increase. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to identify the influencing factor for ASMs efficacy.Results:In these 213 patients with elderly-onset epilepsy, 143 (67.1%) were males and 70 (32.9%) were females. Onset age was 70.0 (67.0, 74.5) years, with duration of 12 (4, 32) months. Time from first onset to treatment was 2.0 (1.0, 10.5) months, with that<2 months enjoying the largest proportion ( n=101). MRI/CT in 102 patients indicated potential epileptogenic abnormal structures, such as post-stroke gliosis/encephalomalacia ( n=67) and post-traumatic gliosis/encephalomalacia ( n=13). MRI/CT in 78 patients indicated non-epileptogenic abnormal structures, such as ischemic changes of small and medium vessels ( n=51) and brain atrophy ( n=15). Structural change was the most common cause ( n=160). Sixty-nine patients (32.4%) did not take medicine and 144 (67.6%) took medicine at the visiting; sodium valproate was mostly used ( n=74), followed by levetiracetam ( n=35) and carbamazepine ( n=24). Five patients had sodium valproate combined with levetiracetam, and 4 patients had sodium valproate combined with carbamazepine. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that disease duration and medication combination were independent influencing factors for ASMs efficacy. Conclusion:Structural change is the main cause for elderly-onset epilepsy; medication efficacy is worse in patients with longer disease course and medication combination therapy.

Aim To investigate the role of auranofin in reversing acquired resistance to osimertinib in non-small cell lung cancer. Methods Osimertinib-sensi-tive NSCLC cell lines HI975 and PC9 were used to establish osimertinib-resistant NSCLC cell lines HI975/OR and PC9/OR. An FDA approved library of 1470 FDA drugs was used to high-throughput screen the reversal agents of acquired resistant of osimertinib by CCK-8. Compusyn was used to calculate the combination index of osimertinib and auranofin to determine the optimal dose of drug combination. CCK-8, EdU, flow cytometry and Transwell experiments were used to detect osimertinib, auranofin and the combination drug effect on proliferation, apoptosis, migration and invasion of osimertinib acquired NSCLC cell lines. RNA-sequencing was applied to screen differentially expressed mRNAs in osimertinib treatment alone and osimertinib combined with auranofin treatment group. qRT-PCR and western blot were employed to validate the selected gene expression and protein expression. Results Compared with osimertinib sensitive cell lines H1975 and PC9, H1975/OR and PC9/OR showed significantly higher cell viability and lower apoptosis rate after osimertinib treatment. The resistance index was 70. 31 and 136. 99, respectively. In FDA approved 1470 drug library, only auranofin could enhance the sensitivity of osimertinib in H1975/OR and PC9/OR. When 1 μmol • L
