The objective of this study was to analyze the effects on cell viability, apoptosis, and cell cycle of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells after intervention with Agrimonia pilosa (AP) and investigate Agrimonia pilosa anti-tumor activity in vitro. Meanwhile, liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) metabolomics technology was used to analyze the changes of cellular metabolites and metabolic pathways. The results of this study will provide a theoretical and experimental basis for investigating the mechanism of the effect of Agrimonia pilosa on non-small cell lung cancer A549 cells. The results showed that the cell nucleus of A549 cells crumpled and apoptosis occurred with the increase of drug concentration. The survival rate of the cells decreased, and the inhibition rate reached 21.5% and 91.74% under the low and high dose conditions, respectively. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) content increased (P < 0.05). Metabolomics results showed significant differences in metabolism between groups, thirty-three distinct metabolites including LysoPC(24:0/0:0), LysoPC(17:0/0:0) and PC(O-40:5) were deduced. The pathway enrichment showed that the Agrimonia pilosa plays an anti-tumor role mainly by regulating the metabolism of glycerophosphate and purine in A549 cells, in which the effect on glycerophosphate metabolism pathway was most significant. The results of combined pharmacodynamics suggested that Agrimonia pilosa might induce apoptosis and inhibit the growth of A549 cells by regulating LysoPC(24:0/0:0), LysoPC(17:0/0:0) and PC(O-40:5) metabolites in A549 cells.

Tuberous sclerosis complex(TSC)is a rare genetic disease that can lead to benign dysplasia in multiple organs such as the skin, brain, eyes, oral cavity, heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, and bones. Its main symptoms include epilepsy, intellectual disabilities, skin depigmentation, and facial angiofibromas, whilst incidence is approximately 1 in 10 000 to 1 in 6000 newborns. This case presents a middle-aged woman who initially manifested with epilepsy and nodular depigmentation. Later, she developed a lower abdominal mass, elevated creatinine, and severe anemia. Based on clinical features and whole exome sequencing, the primary diagnosis was confirmed as TSC. Laboratory and imaging examinations revealed that the lower abdominal mass originated from the uterus. CT-guided biopsy pathology and surgical pathology suggested a combination of leiomyoma and abscess. With the involvement of multiple organs and various complications beyond the main diagnosis, the diagnostic and therapeutic process for this patient highlights the importance of rigorous clinical thinking and multidisciplinary collaboration in the diagnosis and treatment of rare and challenging diseases.

Objective To investigate the influence of the national volume-based procurement(NVBP)policy on the economy and use structure of anti-infective drugs in a general 3-A hospital,and to provide a reference for the standardization of clinical application management and policy implementation.Methods The price,defined daily doses(DDDs),average defined daily cost(DDDc),actual cost saving,substitution rate of selected drugs(SRSD)and avoidance rate of alternative drugs(ARAD)of anti-infective drugs before and after the implementation of 1-7 collection NVBP policy were analysed.Results The NVBP policy led to a＞70％reduction in the price of 70.73％of the hospital's target drugs,69.70％of the DDDs increased,81.82％of the DDDc decreased and 63.64％showed the relationship of"volume increase and price decrease".The average SRSD was 84.49％in the first cycle and 95.94％in the second cycle.The average actual cost saving in the first cycle was 474 100 yuan,with an average saving rate of 407.60％,and in the second cycle was 803 100 yuan,with an average saving rate of 1 257.04％,showing an increasing trend year by year.The consumption of alternative drugs increased by 53.85％in the first cycle and 66.67％in the second cycle,with the highest annual increase of 555.63％,and the average of 74.65％.Conclusion After the implementation of NVBP policy,selected drugs mainly replaced unselected drugs,and the cost of anti-infection treatment was greatly reduced.However,it was necessary to strengthen the control of alternative drugs,standardize the management of clinical application,carry out clinical comprehensive evaluation of selected drugs and real world research.

Objective To preliminarily investigate the related factors influencing the size of vestibular schwannomas.Methods The clinical data of patients with vestibular schwannomas who underwent retrosigmoid approach surgery at the department of neurosurgery of First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from June 2013 to June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The tumor size of the patients was evaluated based on their preoperative imaging data.Univariate and multiple linear regression analyses were performed to explore the factors affecting the size of vestibular schwannomas.Results The tumor size of patients was ranging from 0.63 to 6.60 cm,with a median size of 2.97(2.20,3.80)cm.Univariate analysis showed that gender(P=0.010),ethnicity(P=0.001),age(P=0.049)and cystic solid tumor(P<0.001)were related to the size of vestibular schwannomas.Large-sized vestibular schwannomas were most commonly cystic-solid,and small and medium-sized vestibular schwannomas were most commonly solid.BMI,surgical side and place of residence were not correlated with the size of vestibular schwannomas(P>0.05).Multiple linear regression results showed that male(B=0.390,P=0.001)and Uyghur(B=0.611,P<0.001)patients were more likely to develop large tumors;with every 1-year increase in age,the maximum diameter of the tumor was reduced by an average of 0.011 cm(B=-0.011,P=0.027).Conclusion The gender,age,and ethnicity of patients are correlated with the size of vestibular schwannomas,and male,Uyghur,or younger patients were at higher risk of developing larger vestibular schwannomas.

Objective:To explore the application value of different nutritional screening tools in the evaluation of preoperative malnutrition assessment of Crohn's patients. Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a retrospective analysis was conducted on CD patients who underwent elective surgery at the general surgery department of General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command from January 2021 to March 2022. The preoperative nutritional status of the patients was understood. Taking the consensus on malnutrition assessment diagnosis standards (GLIM) as the gold standard. The correlation, difference and diagnostic efficacy of 3 nutritional risk screening tools were compared. Results:A total of 212 patients were included. Using GLIM as the diagnostic standard, 131 patients (61.79％) had malnutrition. The incidence of malnutrition risk was 66.03％, 85.38％ and 55.66％ using NRS 2002 score, NS IBD score and PNI score, respectively. The sensitivities of the above three scores in the preoperative nutritional screening of IBD patients were 81.46％, 85.48％, 79.63％, respectively; the specificity were 62.36％, 54.71％, 57.12％, respectively; and the areas under the curve were 0.749, 0.763, 0.831, respectively. In the evaluation of diagnostic efficacy, NS IBD score had the highest sensitivity, and NRS 2002 had the best specificity.
