Oral solid dosage forms require processes such as disintegration and dissolution to release the drug before it can be absorbed and utilized by the body. In this manuscript, imaging technology was used to continuously visualize and characterize the in vitro static drug release process of gliclazide modified release tablets from 15 manufacturers, combined with the traditional method of in vitro dissolution testing, to determine the release profile of gliclazide modified release tablets, to evaluate the similarity of the release profiles by using the similarity factor (f₂) method and based on the analysis of the release profiles fitted with a variety of mathematical models. The results indicate that the gliclazide modified release tablets produced by 14 companies are hydrophilic gel matrix tablets. Compared to the reference listed drug, the release profiles of formulations from 11 companies show high similarity (f₂ > 50) to the reference. Among these, formulations with visual characteristics similar to the reference exhibit similar release curves. This study provides an alternative method for the in vitro consistency evaluation of gliclazide modified release tablets, aiming to assess the in vitro release behaviour of generic formulations more accurately and comprehensively.

Objective:To evaluate whether additional radical surgery is necessary following non-curative endoscopic resection of early colorectal cancer.Method:Clinicopathological data in 104 patients following non-curative endoscopic resection of early colorectal coucer at the Department of General Surgery, Peking University First Hospital between Jan 2011 and Dec 2021.Results:Lymph node metastasis and/or residual cancer was found in 23 patients (22%), including 12 cases of lymph node metastasis, 7 cases of residual cancer and 4 patients with both residual cancer and lymph node metastasis. Univariate analysis indicated that vascular infiltration, positive vertical margin, and female gender were risk factors for lymph node metastasis. Risk factors for residual cancer were tumors ≥2 cm in size, negative lift sign, infiltration depth of ≥1 000 μm, and positive horizontal and vertical margins. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that vascular invasion, positive vertical margins, and being female were independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis, while positive vertical margins was independent risk factor for residual cancer. Salvage surgery lasted for a median of 184 (156-233) minutes, with an estimated blood loss of 50 (20-100) ml and an average postoperative hospital stay of 9 (8-11) days. Seven cases of Clavein-Dindo Ⅱ or higher complications were observed, including pulmonary embolism in 1 case , anastomotic leakage in one, lymphatic fistula in one, bowel obstruction in 2 cases and urinary tract infection in 2 cases.Conclusion:Salvage surgery is mandatory for early endoscopic non-curative resection of colorectal cancer.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and surgical experience of modified posterior fossa decompression combined with dural expansion repair in the treatment of type Ⅰ Chiari malformation complicated with syringomyelia.Methods The clinical data of 47 patients with Chiari type Ⅰ malformation complicated with syringomyelia treated by modified posterior fossa decompression combined with dural expansion repair in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively.The changes of posterior cranial fossa volume,cerebellar tonsil and syringomyelia were evaluated by MRI after operation.The scores of Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA)were used to evaluate the improvement of neurological function,and the complications were recorded.Results All the 47 patients successfully completed modified posterior fossa decompression combined with dural expansion repair.The main postoperative complications were unilateral limb numbness,incision pain,fever,subcutaneous effusion and so on,all of which were cured after symptomatic treatment.During the follow-up period,the clinical symptoms and neurological function of the patients were improved in varying degrees,and there was no deterioration of neurological function or death cases.The JOA score of the patients 3 months after operation was(15.83±1.31),which was higher than that of(14.66±2.06)before operation,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).MRI showed the extent of syringomyelia was reduced or disap-peared 6 after surgery in all 47 patients.Conclusion Modified posterior fossa decompression combined with dural expansion repair for the treatment of type Ⅰ Chiari malformation complicated with syringomyelia can not only ensure the decompression effect,but also increase the support of the contents of the posterior fossa,effectively prevent postoperative local adhesions,and restore the normal physiological circulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the cisterna magnum,which is an effective treatment method for type Ⅰ Chiari malformation complicated with syringomyelia.

Objective To evaluate the bioequivalence and safety of two pyrazinamide tablets in healthy Chinese subjects.Methods An open,randomized,single-dose,two-sequence,two-cycle,double-cross trial design was used.All 48 healthy subjects(24 in fasting and 24 in fed trial)were randomized to receive a single oral dose of a 0.5 g pyrazinamide tablet(test or reference)per cycle.The plasma concentration of the drug was determined by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry method.The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by WinNonlin v8.2,and the bioequivalence was evaluated by SAS 9.4.Results In the fasting group,the Cmax of the test and reference preparation of pyrazinamide tablets were(13.28±2.82)and(12.88±4.49)μg·mL-1,the AUC0-t were(139.17±26.58)and(138.63±28.92)h·μg·mL-1,the AUC0-∞ were(148.96±33.65)and(148.71±36.97)h·μg·mL-1 respectively.In the fed group,the Cmax of the test and reference preparation of pyrazinamide tablets were(11.89±1.96)and(11.99±1.92)μg·mL-1,the AUC0-t were(138.22±37.21)and(141.68±25.80)h·μg·mL-1,the AUC0-∞ were(152.20±32.41)and(151.04±28.05)h·μg·mL-,respectively.The 90％confidence intervals of Cmax,AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ geometric mean ratios of the test and reference preparation were all within 80.00％to 125.00％.The incidence of adverse events was 16.70％for both the test and reference preparation in the fasting group and 8.30％for both the test and reference preparation in the fed group,all of which were mild in severity.Conclusion The test and reference preparation of pyrazinamide tablets were bioequivalent,safe and well tolerated in healthy Chinese subjects under fasting and fed conditions.

As an effective prescription for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Huangqin Qingre Chubi capsule (HQC) is still blank in quality control. This study aims to explore quality markers (Q-markers) for HQC in the treatment of RA by integrating network pharmacology and pharmacokinetics. By constructing the visualization network of "pharmacodynamic ingredient-target-pathway", the potential Q-Marker of HQC treatment for RA was preliminatively predicted. A rat model of rheumatic heat obstruction syndrome collagene-induced arthritis (CIA) was established to elucidate the dynamic quantification law of pharmacodynamic components of HQC in the disease state of rats. To establish the inflammatory model of RA synovial fibroblasts (MH7A) induced by tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in vitro. The effects of active ingredients on protein expression of sphingosin kinase-1 (Sphk1) and p-SphK1 were detected. The network pharmacological results showed that baicalin, geniposide, luteolin, coixol and amygdalin were the important active components of HQC treatment for RA. Quantitative analysis results further verified the measurability of these five components. The expression of Sphk1 and p-SphK1 was significantly inhibited by geniposide and baicalin by Western blotting. The above studies determined that the above 5 components could be used as Q-markers in the treatment of RA by HQC. This experiment was approved by the Experimental Animal Ethics Committee of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine (approval number: AHUCM-rats-2021049). All procedures were conducted in strict accordance with the principles of animal use and care.

Objective: To analyze the risk factors for complications of endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) of upper gastrointestinal submucosal tumors (SMTs). Methods: This was a retrospective observational study. The indications for EFTR included: (1) SMTs originating from the muscularis propria layer and growing out of the cavity or infiltrating the deep part of the muscularis propria layer; (2) SMTs diameter <5 cm; and (3) tumor identified as closely adherent to the serous layer during endoscopic submucosal dissection or endoscopic mucosal resection. This study included patients with SMTs originating from the muscularis propria layer in upper digestive tract, diagnosed preoperatively by endoscopic ultrasonography or computed tomography, who were successfully treated with EFTR. Those with incomplete clinical data were excluded. The clinical data of 154 patients with upper gastrointestinal SMTs who underwent EFTR at the Department of Gastroenterology, First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2016 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Post-EFTR complications (such as delayed perforation, delayed bleeding, and postoperative infection, including electrocoagulation syndrome) were monitored and the risk factors for them were analyzed. Results: Among the 154 study patients, 33 (21.4%) developed complications, including delayed bleeding in three (1.9%), delayed perforation in two (1.3%), and postoperative infection in 28 (18.2%). One patient with bleeding was classified as having a major complication (hospitalized for more than 10 days because of complication). According to univariate analysis, complication was associated with tumor diameter >15 mm, operation time >90 minutes, defect closure method(purse string suture), and diameter of resected specimen ≥20 mm (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that operation time >90 minutes (OR=6.252, 95%CI: 2.530-15.446, P<0.001) and tumor diameter >15 mm (OR=4.843, 95%CI: 1.985-11.817, P=0.001) were independent risk factors for complications after EFTR in patients with upper gastrointestinal SMTs. The independent risk factors for postoperative infection in these patients were operation time>90 minutes (OR=4.993, 95%CI:1.964-12.694, P=0.001) and purse string suture (OR=7.142, 95%CI: 1.953-26.123, P=0.003). Conclusion: Patients with upper gastrointestinal SMTs undergoing EFTR with tumor diameter >15 mm or operation time >90 minutes have a significantly increased risk of postoperative complications. Postoperative monitoring is important for these patients with SMTs.

In this study, ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole/time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS) were combined with non-targeted metabonomic analysis based on multivariate statistics analysis, and the content of five indicative components in nardosinone was determined and compared by UPLC. The main chemical components of Nardostachyos Radix et Rhizoma with imitative wild cultivation and wild Nardostachyos Radix et Rhizoma were comprehensively analyzed. The results of multivariate statistical analysis based on liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS) and GC-MS were consistent. G1 and G2 of the imitative wild cultivation group and G8-G19 of the wild group were clustered into category 1, while G7 of the wild group and G3-G6 of the imitative wild cultivation group were clustered into category 2. After removing the outlier data of G1, G2, and G7, G3-G6 of the imitative wild cultivation group were clustered into one category, and G8-G19 of the wild group were clustered into the other category. Twenty-six chemical components were identified according to the positive and negative ion modes detected by LC-MS. The content of five indicative components(VIP>1.5) was determined using UPLC, revealing that chlorogenic acid, isochlorogenic acid A, isochlorogenic acid C, linarin, nardosinone, and total content in the imitative wild cultivation group were 1.85, 1.52, 1.26, 0.90, 2.93, and 2.56 times those in the wild group, respectively. OPLS-DA based on GC-MS obtained 10 diffe-rential peaks. Among them, the relative content of α-humulene and aristolene in the imitative wild cultivation group were extremely significantly(P<0.01) and significantly(P<0.05) higher than that in the wild group, while the relative content of 7 components such as 5,6-epoxy-3-hydroxy-7-megastigmen-9-one, γ-eudesmol, and juniper camphor and 12-isopropyl-1,5,9-trimethyl-4,8,13-cyclotetrade-catriene-1,3-diol was extremely significantly(P<0.01) and significantly(P<0.05) lower than that in the wild group, respectively. Therefore, the main chemical components of the imitative wild cultivation group and wild group were basically the same. However, the content of non-volatile components in the imitative wild cultivation group was higher than that in the wild group, and the content of some volatile components was opposite. This study provides scientific data for the comprehensive evaluation of the quality of Nardostachyos Radix et Rhizoma with imitative wild cultivation and wild Nardostachyos Radix et Rhizoma.
