Tirzepatide is the first-in-class dual agonist of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP) receptor, which plays a variety of physiological effects by imitating natural GLP-1 and GIP. In the completed large phase III series of clinical studies of SURPASS and SURMOUNT, Tirzepatide has demonstrated excellent effects in decreasing glycosylated hemoglobin, reducing weight, improving blood lipid and other metabolic indicators, and is superior to the currently approved GLP-1 receptor agonist. Gastrointestinal reaction is the most common adverse event of the drug, which is generally mild to moderate, and decreases with continuous administration. On May 13, 2022, Tirzepatide was approved for listing by FDA, the current indication is to improve glycemic control of adult patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) as an adjunct of diet and exercise. In addition to T2D and obesity, there are also extensive and in-depth studies on other metabolic fields. This paper makes a systematic overview of this.

OBJECTIVE To screen the active ingredient with estrogenic effect from total flavonoids of Cuscutae Semen. METHODS The estrogenic effect of total flavonoids from 10 batches of Cuscutae Semen was evaluated with mouse uterus coefficient and endometrial thickness as evaluation indexes, establish its fingerprint and calibrate the common peak. Common peak and spectrum-effect relationship of the above two indicators were analyzed by bivariate relationship analysis and grey correlation analysis to screen active components with estrogenic effect. UPLC-Q-TOF-MS technology was used to characterize the active components. RESULTS The estrogenic effect of total flavonoids from 10 batches of Cuscutae Semen was good. Twenty-eight and thirty-three common peaks of total flavonoids in Cuscutae Semen were obtained in the positive and negative ion modes respectively. The constituents represented by peaks 7,10,12-16,26 in positive ion mode and peaks 2,5,8,9,12,16,19,22-26 in negative ion mode were highly correlated with the estrogenic effect of total flavonoids from Cuscutae Semen. Further identification showed that the active substances with estrogenic effect from the total flavonoids of Cuscutae Semen were 5,7,3′, 4′-tetramethoxyflavone, 6- O-(trans) p-coumarin-furanfructose-(2→1)-glucopyranoside, rutin, kaempferol-3,7-diglucoside, apigenin-7-O-glucoside, hyperoside, baicalin, quercitin, quercetin, apigenin, kaempferol, isorhamnetin, rhododendron, isoquercetin, kaempferol-3-furan arabinoside, 2,6-octadecanediacetylic acid. CONCLUSIONS A total of 16 chemical components with estrogenic effect are screened from total flavonoids of Cuscutae Semen in the study, which can provide reference for the development of phytoestrogens.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for clarifying improvement effects of Anemarrhena asphodeloides on sepsis- induced myocardial injury and potential material basis. METHODS Water extract of A. asphodeloides was extracted by thermal reflux method. Total xanthone and total saponins in A. asphodeloides were separated by macroporous adsorption resin. The mice model of sepsis-induced myocardial injury was established by intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide. The effects of the location of three extraction fractions and the monomers of A. asphodeloides as mangiferin, timosaponin AⅢ and timosaponin BⅡ on the survival rate of the model mice were explored. HE staining was used to observe the effects of mangiferin, timosaponin AⅢ and timosaponin BⅡ on myocardial morphology in model mice. The effects of mangiferin on mRNA expressions of inflammatory cytokines [interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)] and the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in myocardial tissue of model mice were detected. RESULTS Compared with the model group, the survival rate of mice in the intervention group of total xanthone, total saponins and water extract was increased to different extents, especially total xanthone fraction. Mangiferin, timosaponin AⅢ and timosaponin BⅡcould improve the degree of myocardial cell swelling and muscle bundle arrangement disorder in model mice, especially mangiferin. Compared with model group, mRNA expressions of IL-6, IL- 1β and TNF- α, ROS level in myocardium of mice after mangiferin intervention were decreased to different extents. CONCLUSIONS The different extraction fractions of A. asphodeloides can improve survival rate of mice with sepsis-induced myocardial injury, especially total xanthone fraction. Mangiferin is the best among the three monomers of A. asphodeloides to improve sepsis-induced myocardial injury, which may play a role in anti-sepsis myocardial injury by anti-inflammation and antioxidantion.
7.Clinical research progress on radiopharmaceuticals imaging targeting epidermal growth factor receptor
Chinese Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging 2022;42(7):428-432
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays an important role in the development and occurrence of a variety of malignant tumors. Molecular targeted therapy for EGFR is in the ascendant. Molecular imaging can reveal the expression of EGFR and its mutations in vivo. The molecular probes labeled with 89Zr, 11C and 18F are used for imaging and the main research is about tyrosine kinase inhibitors labeled with 11C. PET is used to visualize EGFR expression and mutations in vivo, which can noninvasively screen patients suitable for targeting treatment and evaluate efficacy. This paper reviews the clinical researches and trials of these probes, and summarizes the clinical value of imaging methods, hoping to provide the evidence for clinical translation and application in the future.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between early postoperative recovery and frailty after digestive endoscopy-assisted minimally invasive surgery under intravenous anesthesia in the elderly.Methods:This study retrospectively selected hospitalized patients, aged ≥65 yr, scheduled for elective gastrointestinal endoscopic treatment.Early postoperative recovery time was defined as the period from the end of propofol administration to the achievement of a modified Aldrete score of 9.All the patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether the early recovery time after operation was less than 75%: normal early postoperative recovery time group and delayed early postoperative recovery time group.Frailty was assessed using the frailty phenotype (FP score 0-5), and the patient was diagnosed as frail (FP ≥3) or non-frail (FP 0-2). The age, sex, height, weight, smoking history, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status classification, type of operation, and baseline mean arterial pressure and heart rate were recorded.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for delayed early postoperative recovery time after minimally invasive digestive endoscopy under intravenous anesthesia in elderly patients.Results:A total of 214 patients were enrolled and divided into normal early postoperative recovery time group ( n=169) and delayed early postoperative recovery time group ( n=45). There were significant differences in frailty, age, drinking history of more than 10 yr, preoperative ASA Physical Status classification and propofol administration time between delayed early postoperative recovery time group and normal early postoperative recovery time group ( P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis indicated that frailty, age, ASA Physical Status classification Ⅲ, and propofol administration time were independent risk factors for the occurrence of delayed early postoperative recovery ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Frailty, age, ASA Physical Status classification Ⅲ and propofol administration time are independent risk factors for delayed early postoperative recovery time following digestive endoscopy-assisted minimally invasive surgery under intravenous anesthesia in elderly patients.

Objective:
To build an automatic bone age assessment system based on China 05 Bone Age Standard and the latest deep learning technology, and preliminary clinical verification was carried out.
Methods:
The left-hand radiographs of 5 000 children with suspected metabolic disorders were acquired from Wuxi Children′s Hospital. Among these cases, 2 351 patients were randomly chosen as training set, and 101 patients were randomly used as validation set. Four professional pediatric radiologists annotated the development stage according to the China 05 RUS-CHN standard with double-blind method. The mean value of the bone age assessed by experts was the reference standard which was used to train and validate the deep learning mothods based artificial intelligence (AI) model. Accuracy, mean absolute error (MAE), root mean squared error (RMSE) and time efficiency of bone age assessment were compared by using Chi-square test and
