		                        			The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Geniposide on hepatic fibrosis and activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and to explore possible underlying mechanism. Human HSCs (LX-2) were treated with 5 ng/mL transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), followed by co-culture with Geniposide at various concentrations (0, 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 μmol/L). Cell viability was determined by MTT assay. Then, LX-2 cells were divided into control, TGF-β1 (5 ng/mL) and TGF-β1 + Geniposide (20 μmol/L) groups, and the gene and protein expression of collagen I, fibronectin, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), p-Smad2 and p-Smad3 was detected by qPCR and Western blot, respectively. BALB/c mice were treated with CCl4 (25%, 1 mL/kg) to generate a model of hepatic fibrosis (CCl4 group), and the control group and CCl4 + Geniposide group were administered with olive oil and CCl4 + 40 mg/kg Geniposide, respectively. After 4 weeks of treatment, the liver function and serum hepatic fibrosis indexes of mice were detected, histological observation was performed by HE and Masson staining, and α-SMA expression in the tissue was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. Western blot was utilized for the determination of the protein expression of α-SMA, TGF-β1, p-Smad2 and p-Smad3. The results showed that Geniposide inhibited LX-2 cell proliferation. In addition, Geniposide significantly downregulated the gene and protein expression of collagen I, fibronectin and α-SMA and the expression of TGF-β1/Smad signaling-related proteins induced by TGF-β1 in vitro. Histological observations showed that Geniposide significantly inhibited CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis, HSC activation and expression of TGF-β1/Smad signaling-related proteins in mice. In summary, Geniposide prevents the hepatic fibrosis and HSC activation possibly through the inhibition of the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway.

		                        			OBJECTIVE:To investigate the contents of 5 kinds of heavy metal as copper (Cu),arsenic(As),cadmium (Cd),mercury(Hg)and lead (Pb)in Yougui pills ,and to evaluate its safety risk. METHODS :Using yttrium (89Y),indium (115In)and bismuth (209bi)as internal standard ,the contents of each element were determined by ICP-MS. ICP-MS condition  included that atomization gas flow rate was 0.95 L/min,auxiliary gas flow rate was 1.2 L/min,plasma gas (argon)flow rate was 18 L/min,pump speed was 30 r/min. RF power of inductively coupled plasma was 1 200 W,the voltage in simulation stage was 1 750 V,the voltage in pulse stage was 1 300 V,the voltage of deflection device was -12 V,and the detector was in analog and pulse dual-mode. The determination methods of various elements were investigated ,and 45 batches of marketed Yougui pills were determined. Hazard index (HI)was used to analyze the non-carcinogenic risk of each element and calculate the maximum residual limit(MRL)of each element. RESULTS :The linear range of Cu ,As,Cd,Hg and Pb ranged from 10-200,1-50,0.4-30,0.2-6 and 2-100 μg/L(all r>0.999 0),respectively. The limits of quantitation were 0.67,0.23,0.20,0.07,0.27 μg/L. The limits of detection were 0.20,0.07,0.06,0.02,0.08 μg/L. RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 3.5% (n=6 or n=5). Average recoveries were 92.96%-100.89%(RSD=2.23%-3.62%,n=3). Average contents of Cu ,As,Cd,Hg and Pb in 45 batches of Yougui pills were 2.72,0.28,0.07,0.05,0.62 mg/kg,and superimposed HI of each element was less than 1. The contents of 5 kinds of heavy metals in Yougui pills were lower than the proposed MRL (MRL of Cu ,As,Cd,Hg and Pb were 20,2,1,0.2,5 mg/kg or 111.11,4.44,2.22,1.48,8.89 mg/kg respectively ). CONCLUSIONS :Established method can be used for the determination of content of 5 kinds of heavy metal in Yougui pills ;the heavy metal pollution rate of marketed Yougui pills is low and the safety risk is small.

		                        			 We report a case of maternal asymptomatic COVID-19 in a patient with typical CT image of pneumonia in the third trimester, and both the mother and baby were well. The patient, a 30-year-old female, was transferred to Yichun People's Hospital at 37 +3  gestational weeks because of a positive 2019 novel coronavirus nucleic acid result over seven hours. Her husband and mother-in-law were diagnosed with COVID-19 eight days before her admission and on the same day, respectively. The patient reported no discomfort before admission, and there were no abnormalities in the prenatal course during her pregnancy. On February 13 (the second day of admission), a patchy blurred shadow was observed in the lower lobe of the right lung in chest CT scan, and a live baby girl was delivered by a precaution-based emergent cesarean section because of suspected fetal distress shown in electrical fetal heart monitoring. Both the mother and the newborn were isolated separately after the operation without etiological examination of amniotic fluid, umbilical cord blood, placenta, etc. All the medical staff involved in the cesarean section were isolated as well. The mother was healthy and remained asymptomatic after delivery, while antiviral and anti-inflammatory treatment was offered. COVID-19 nucleic acid tests of pharyngeal swab were negative on the 4 th  and 6 th  day after operation. Chest CT on the 5 th  day after delivery showed inflammation in the lower lobe of the right lung, and reexamination on the 8 th  day showed a slight absorption of the inflammation. Samples of peripheral blood and pharynx swab were obtained from the newborn on the day of birth and four and seven days after birth and novel coronavirus nucleic acid test were all negative. The mother and baby dyad were discharged nine days after operation. And novel coronavirus nucleic acid tests were all negative in all medical staff involved.

		                        			Objective:To observe the natural course of patients with simple traumatic intraparenchymal contusions and hematomas (TIPHs), and analyze the risk factors for TIPHs progression.Methods:Using a prospective observational study, 69 patients with TIPHs in Affiliated Xiaolan Hospital, Southern Medical University from July 2018 to January 2020 were selected. The gender, age, cause of injury, compound injury status, combined injury and Glasgow coma score (GCS) were recorded. The plasma levels of prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), fibrinogen (Fbg), international normalized ratio (INR), D-dimer, platelet, hemoglobin at admission were detected. The occurrence of hypoxemia and high intracranial pressure were observed. The time of the first CT examination, volume of the first CT hematoma, time of the control CT examination, volume of the control CT hematoma, and lesion morphology, multifocality, subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), edema zone and cortical distance showed in the first CT examination were recorded. The risk factors of progression in patients with TIPHs were analyzed.Results:Among 69 patients with TIPHs, TIPHs progression was in 28 cases (progression group), and the progression rate was 40.58%; TIPHs progression was not in 41 cases (non-progression group). There were no statistical differences in gender composition, age, PT, APTT, INR, hemoglobin, cause of injury, compound injury, incidence of hypoxemia, incidence of high intracranial pressure, incidence of SAH, incidence of edema zone, incidence of irregular lesions, time of the first CT examination, time of the control CT examination and volume of the first CT hematoma between 2 groups ( P>0.05). The GCS, cortical distance and Fbg in progression group were significantly lower than those in non-progression group, the TT, platelet, multifocality rate and volume of the control CT hematoma were significantly higher than those in non-progression group, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 or <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that cortical distance <1 cm, Fbg<2 g/L and multifocality were independent risk factors affecting the progression in patients with TIPHs ( OR = 6.723, 5.515 and 4.827; P<0.05). The model had a sensitivity of 71.43% (20/28), a specificity of 92.68% (38/41), and an accuracy of 84.06% (58/69) in judging the progression of TIPHs. Conclusions:Based on the risk factors for the progression of TIPHs, predicting these patients in advance can provide necessary intervention measures for high-risk patients, which will help to reduce the rate of progression and improve the prognosis of patients.

		                        			Objective:To observe the natural course of cerebral contusion and laceration combined with hematoma formation and analyze the risk factors for its progression.Methods:Patients with cerebral contusion and laceration combined with hematoma formation admitted to our hospital from September 2017 to March 2020 were prospectively selected; and they were divided into progressive and non-progressive groups according to progression of cerebral contusion and laceration combined with hematoma formation. The clinical data of the two groups of patients were compared, and multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent influencing factors for progressive cerebral contusion and laceration combined with hematoma formation.Results:A total of 197 patients with cerebral contusion and laceration combined with hematoma formation were included in this study, of which, 61 were treated with craniotomy and 136 were treated conservatively; 85 patients had progressive cerebral contusion and laceration combined with hematoma formation and 112 patients had non-progressive cerebral contusion and laceration combined with hematoma formation. As compared with those in the non-progressive group, the baseline Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores of the progressive group were lower, hematoma volume by second CT scan was larger, distance from the center of cerebral contusion and laceration or hematoma to the nearest cortex was shorter, platelet count and thrombin time increased, fibrinogen (FIB) content decreased, and proportion of patients with multiple lesions in the first CT scan was higher in the progressive group, with significant differences ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the distance from the center of cerebral contusion and laceration or hematoma to the nearest cortex<1 cm, plasma FIB<2 g/L, multiple lesions of cerebral contusion and laceration or hematoma on first CT scan were risk factors for progression in patients with cerebral contusion and laceration combined with hematoma formation ( OR=6.654, 95%CI: 1.391-35.089, P=0.025; OR=5.617, 95%CI: 1.136-28.022, P=0.034; OR=4.629, 95%CI: 1.178-20.071, P=0.031). Conclusion:The patients with short distance from the center of cerebral contusion and laceration or hematoma to the nearest cortex, low plasma FIB, and multiple lesions of cerebral contusion and laceration or hematoma on first CT scan are prone to have progressive cerebral contusion and hematoma formation.
