Objective To optimize the extraction process of Xuetong capsules and establish its quality control method. Methods The extraction process was optimized by orthogonal experiment using ethanol reflux method to investigate the effects of different factors on diphenylstilbene, aloin and extraction yield. The content of 5 anthraquinone compounds in Xuetong capsule was determined by HPLC. Results The optimal extraction process was to add 10 times ethanol, with an ethanol concentration of 70%, and extract 3 times, each time for 1 h; 5 components had a good linear relationship with peak area within a certain concentration range, r>0.999 7; The range of sample recovery rate was 93.66%-96.85%, RSD range of 1.48%-1.66%. The content determination results of the 5 components in three batches of Xuetong capsules were (0.632-0.641), (0.660-0.681), (1.968-1.991), (2.547-2.580), and (1.076-1.101) mg/g.

Objective To investigate the relationship between two-lung ventilation (TLV) with single-lumen endotracheal tube (SLT), one-lung ventilation (OLV) with double-lumen endotracheal tube (DLT) and postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after total thoracoscopic cardiac surgery. Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgeries in the Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital from October 2019 to October 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into 2 group according to the type of endotracheal tube, including a SLT group and a DLT group. Baseline data, surgical variables and PPCs were compared. The influencing factors of PPCs in the two groups were analyzed by binary logistic regression analysis. Results Finally 349 patients were enrolled, including 180 males and 169 females with an average age of (50.0±14.8) years. There were 219 patients in the SLT group and 130 patients in the DLT group. There was no statistical difference in baseline data, surgical variables or PPCs between the two groups (P>0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that PPCs were related to body mass index in the SLT group (OR=0.778, 95%CI 0.637 to 0.951, P=0.014) and preoperative smoking history in the DLT group (OR=0.058, 95%CI 0.004 to 0.903, P=0.042). Conclusion For the patients who undergo totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery, TLV with SLT and OLV with DLT show no significant association with PPCs. At the same time, PPCs are associated with body mass index in the SLT group, while associated with preoperative smoking history in the DLT group.

OBJECTIVE To establish an ion chromatography method for the simultaneous determination of chloride, sulfate and bicarbonate ions in Polyethylene glycol electrolyte powder (Ⅲ). METHODS The chromatographic column was a Dionex IonpacTM AS11-HC anion analysis column, with a Dionex IonPacTM AG11-HC guard column. The mobile phase was 10 mmol/L potassium hydroxide at an isocratic elution flow rate of 1.2 mL/min. The detector was a conductivity detector, and the suppressor was a Dionex AERS with a suppressor current of 30 mA. The column temperature was maintained at 30 ° C, and the injection volume was 10 μL. Chloride and sulfate contents were calculated by external standard method, while bicarbonate content was determined by double logarithmic fitting standard curve method. RESULTS Under these chromatographic conditions, chloride, sulfate and bicarbonate ions were effectively separated with linear ranges of 0.055 to 0.219 mg/mL (r=0.999 9), 0.155 to 0.618 mg/mL (r=1.000 0), and 0.065 to 0.121 mg/mL (r=0.999 9), respectively. The recoveries were 98.06% to 101.34%, 97.37% to 101.25%, and 97.16% to 99.81%, respectively, with RSDs of 1.1%, 1.3% and 1.0% (n=9). The RSDs for the evaluation of precision, accuracy, stability and ruggedness were all less than 2%. CONCLUSIONS The established ion chromatography is simple, rapid, accurate, precise and durable, can simultaneously determine the contents of chloride, sulfate and bicarbonate ions in Polyethylene glycol electrolyte powder (Ⅲ), which is suitable for its quality control.

OBJECTIVE
To elucidate the mechanisms responsible for the inhibitory effects of limonene on the proliferation of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) by non-targeted metabolomics and additional approaches.
METHODS
The CCK-8 assay was utilized to evaluate the inhibitory effects of limonene on NSCLC A549 cell viability and to ascertain the IC50. In vitro experiments, encompassing colony formation, flow cytometry, iron content assessment, and mitochondrial staining, were conducted to assess the anti-lung cancer and iron-induced cell death effects of limonene. Metabolomic analysis was employed to identify potential pathways influenced by limonene, and Western blotting was carried out to validate pivotal proteins within these pathways.
RESULTS
In comparison to the control group, the limonene-treated group demonstrated a significant, dose-dependent reduction in A549 cell proliferation and colony formation. Optical microscopy revealed cellular detachment and pronounced changes in cellular morphology following exposure to limonene. Limonene induced apoptosis in A549 cells and arrested them in the G0-G1 phase of the cell cycle. Confocal microscopy unveiled diminished mitochondrial fluorescence and an augmented intracellular iron content, indicative of the classical phenomenon of ferroptosis. Metabolomic investigations unveiled divergent metabolic pathways, including glutathione(GSH) metabolism, arginine biosynthesis, D-glutamine and D-glutamate metabolism, as well as cysteine and methionine metabolism, with many of them intricately linked to intracellular GSH synthesis. Western blotting experiments underscored a marked reduction in the levels of SLC40A1, SLC7A11(xCT), and GPX4 proteins within the cells post-limonene treatment.
CONCLUSION
Limonene may induce ferroptosis in lung cancer cells by reducing GSH synthesis and increasing Fe2+ levels.

Renal fibrosis, especially tubulointerstitial fibrosis, is the most common pathway of all chronic kidney diseases progressing to end-stage renal diseases. Several adaptive reactions occur in renal tubular epithelial cells after chronic injury, such as changes in glycolipid metabolism, unfolded protein response, autophagy and senescence, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and G2/M cell cycle arrest. Maladaptive repair mechanisms can induce tubulointerstitial fibrosis. This article will discuss the molecular mechanism of these adaptive responses of renal tubular epithelial cells driving renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis, and provide a basis for exploring new drug targets for renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis.
