RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To investigate blood pressure rhythm (BPR) in Yin deficiency syndrome of hypertension (YDSH) patients and develop a random forest model for predicting YDSH. METHODS: Our study was consistent with technical processes and specification for developing guidelines of Evidence-based Chinese medicine clinical practice (T/CACM 1032-2017). We enrolled 234 patients who had been diagnosed with primary hypertension without antihypertensive medications prior to the enrollment. All participants were divided into Yin deficiency group (YX, n = 74) and non-Yin deficiency group (NYX, n = 160). Participants were professionally grouped by three experienced chief Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) physicians according to four examinations (i.e., inspection, listening and smelling, inquiry and palpation). We collected data on 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) and YDSH rating scale. We divided 24 h of a day into 12 two-hour periods [Chen-Shi (7:00-9:00), Si-Shi (9:00-11:00), Wu-Shi (11:00-13:00), Wei-Shi (13:00-15:00), Shen-Shi (15:00-17:00), You-Shi (17:00-19:00), Xu-Shi (19:00-21:00), Hai-Shi (21:00-23:00), Zi-Shi (23:00-1:00), Chou-Shi (1:00-3:00), Yin-Shi (3:00-5:00), Mao-Shi (5:00-7:00)] according to the theory of "midnight-midday ebb flow". We used random forest to build the diagnostic model of YDSH, with whether it was Yin deficiency syndrome as the outcome. RESULTS: Compared with NYX group, YX group had more female participants with older age, lower waist circumference, body mass index (BMI), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and smoking and drinking rate (all P ï¼ 0.05). The YDSH rating scores of YX group [28.5 (21.0-36.0)] were significantly higher than NYX group [13.0 (8.0-22.0)] (P < 0.001), and the typical symptoms of YX group included vexing heat in the chest, palms and soles, dizziness, dry eyes, string-like and fine pulse, soreness and weakness of lumbus and knees, palpitations, reddened cheeks, and tinnitus (all P < 0.05). The ratio of non-dipper hypertension in YX group was higher than in NYX group (56.9% vs 44.4%, P = 0.004). Compared with NYX group, 24 h DBP standard deviation (SD), nighttime DBP SD, Si-Shi DBP, Si-Shi mean arterial pressure (MAP), Hi-Shi systolic blood pressure (SBP), Hi-Shi DBP, Hi-Shi MAP, Zi-Shi SBP, Zi-Shi DBP, Zi-Shi MAP, Chou-Shi SBP SD, Chou-Shi DBP SD, Chou-Shi SBP coefficient of variation (CV) were lower in YX group (all P ï¼ 0.05). Binary Logistic Regression analysis showed that the diagnosis of YDSH was positively correlated with age, heart rate, YDSH rating scores, and four TCM symptoms including vexing heat in the chest, palms and soles, string-like and fine pulse, soreness and weakness of lumbus and knees, and reddened cheeks (all P ï¼ 0.05), but was negatively correlated with smoking (Pï¹¥0.05). In addition, the diagnosis of YDSH was positively correlated with daytime SBP SD, nighttime SBP SD, nighttime SBP CV, and Hi-Shi SBP CV, but was negatively correlated with 24 h SBP CV, daytime DBP SD, nighttime DBP SD, and Hi-Shi DBP (all P ï¼ 0.05). Hi-Shi SBP CV had independent and positive correlation with the diagnosis of YDSH after adjusting the variables of age, gender, course of hypertension, BMI, waist circumference, SBP, DBP, heart rate, smoking and drinking (P = 0.029). Diagnostic model of YDSH was established and verified based on the random forest. The results showed that the calculation accuracy, specificity and sensitivity were 77.3%, 77.8% and 76.9%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The BPR was significantly attenuated in YDSH patients, including lower 24 h DBP SD and nighttime DBP SD, and Hi-Shi SBP CV is independently correlated with the diagnosis of YDSH. The prediction accuracy of diagnosis model of YDSH based on the random forest was good, which could be valuable for clinicians to differentiate YDSH and non-Yin deficiency patients for more effective hypertensive treatment of TCM.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides (GLP) on the proliferation, migration, cycle, and apoptosis of hepatocellular carcinoma SKHEP1 and Huh7 cells and to explore the underlying mechanism. MethodSK-HEP-1 and Huh-7 cells were classified into the blank group and low-, medium-, and high-dose GLP groups (3.5, 7, 14 g·L-1). The proliferation of the cells was examined by cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) assay, and the migration by scratch assay. Cell cycle was measured by flow cytometry and apoptosis was detected based on Hoechst33258 staining. In addition, the expression of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), protein kinase B (Akt), phosphorylated PI3K (pPI3K), and phosphorylated Akt (pAkt) in the cells was determined by Western blot. ResultCompared with the blank group, the three doses of GLP reduced the proliferation and migration of SKHEP1 and Huh7 cells (P<0.05), increased the percentage of cells in G1 phase (P<0.05), and decreased percentage of cells in S and G2 phase (P<0.05). In addition, the three doses can induce apoptosis of both SK-HEP-1 and Huh-7 cells, particularly the high dose. Moreover, the three doses of GLP lowered the levels of pPI3K and pAkt (P<0.05). ConclusionGLP significantly inhibited the malignant phenotype of SK-HEP-1 and Huh-7 cells through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
RESUMEN
Objective:To compare the effects of intensive and standard blood pressure control on the outcomes of patients with acute ischemic stroke in the anterior circulation who have successfully recanalized after endovascular therapy (EVT).Methods:A multicenter, open-label, blinded-endpoint, randomized controlled design was used. Patients with anterior circulation stroke received EVT and successfully recanalized in Nanjing First Hospital, Nanjing Medical University and several branch hospitals from July 2020 to October 2022 were prospectively included. They were randomly divided into the intensive blood pressure control group (target systolic blood pressure [SBP] 100-120 mmHg) or the standard blood pressure control group (target SBP 121-140 mmHg). The blood pressure of both groups needs to achieve the target within 1 h and maintain for 72 h. The primary outcome endpoint was outcome at 90 d, and the good outcome was defined as a score of 0-2 on the modified Rankin Scale. Secondary outcome endpoints included early neurological improvement, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) within 24 h, and death and serious adverse events within 90 d.Results:A total of 120 patients were included, including 63 in the intensive blood pressure control group and 57 in the standard blood pressure control group. There was no statistically significant difference in baseline characteristics between the two groups. The SBP at 72 h after procedure was 122.7±8.1 mmHg in the intensive blood pressure control group and 130.2±7.4 mmHg in the standard blood pressure control group, respectively. There were no significantly differences in the good outcome rate (54.0% vs. 54.4%; χ2=0.002, P=0.963), the early neurological improvement rate (45.2% vs. 34.5%; χ2=1.367, P=0.242), the incidence of sICH (6.3% vs. 3.5%; P=0.682), mortality (7.9% vs. 14.0%; χ2=1.152, P=0.283) and the incidence of serious adverse events (12.7% vs. 15.8%; χ2=0.235, P=0.628) at 90 d between the intensive blood pressure control group and the standard blood pressure control group. Conclusion:In patients with anterior circulation stroke and successful revascularization of EVT, early intensive blood pressure control don’t improve clinical outcomes and reduce the incidence of sICH.

RESUMEN
In order to clean the endoscopic tube more effectively, a new double-headed endoscopic cleaning brush was used in this study. A total of 130 colonoscopies were selected from the Digestive Endoscopy Center of Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from June 2019 to August 2020. The colonoscopy cleaning sequence was marked with odd and even number. Colonoscopies marked with the odd number were assigned to the conventional group ( n=65) which received back and forth cleaning with the single-headed endoscope cleaning brush. Colonoscopies marked with the even number were assigned to the experimental group ( n=65) which received one-way cleaning with a nylon brush at the head and a dense non-woven brush at the tail. The cleaning methods for endoscopes were in accordance with Flexible Endoscopic Cleaning and Disinfection Technical Specification WS507—2016. ATP bioluminescence tests and bacterial quantitative cultures were applied to evaluate the cleaning effects of the two methods. The results showed that ATP relative light unit (RLU) decreased in both the experimental group and the conventional group [530.63 RLU (26-3 559 RLU) VS 270.87 RLU (20-1 415 RLU)] before and after cleaning the endoscope tube, showing significant difference between the two groups ( Z=-2.894, P<0.05). After scrubbing, the positive rate of bacterial culture on the brush head was 86.2% (56/65) for the double-headed non-woven brush head, 46.2% (30/65) for the double-headed nylon brush head and 32.3% (21/65) for the single-headed nylon brush head with significant differences among the three groups ( χ 2=41.046, P<0.05). The cleaning effect of the new double-headed endoscopic cleaning brush is better than that of the conventional single-headed endoscopic cleaning brush for soft endoscope cleaning. Non-woven brush is better than nylon brush in eliminating bacteria.

RESUMEN
As an important branch of medicine,Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)has been applied for the treatment of diseases for thousands of years in China and other countries in East Asia.The Chinese Pharmacopoeia(ChP)is a drug code formulated by the Chinese government,and it includes a special volume for the monographs of TCM,which plays an important role in ensuring the quality of drugs.The use of quality control technology has always been a complex and important factor in TCM.Owing to the chemical diversity of TCM,chromatography technology has been proven to be a comprehensive strategy for the assessment of the overall quality of TCM and has become the main analytical method in the ChP.This article provides an overview of the classical and modern chromatographic technologies applied in the ChP,and summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of each technique in the TCM monographs.In 2020,the new edition of the ChP(the 2020 edition)has been implemented at the end of 2020.This paper also contains a brief introduction about the application of chromatographic technologies in the new edition of the ChP.
RESUMEN
Since the SARS outbreak 18 years ago, a large number of severe acute respiratory syndrome related coronaviruses (SARSr-CoV) have been discovered in their natural reservoir host, bats1-4. Previous studies indicated that some of those bat SARSr-CoVs have the potential to infect humans5-7. Here we report the identification and characterization of a novel coronavirus (nCoV-2019) which caused an epidemic of acute respiratory syndrome in humans, in Wuhan, China. The epidemic, started from December 12th, 2019, has caused 198 laboratory confirmed infections with three fatal cases by January 20th, 2020. Full-length genome sequences were obtained from five patients at the early stage of the outbreak. They are almost identical to each other and share 79.5% sequence identify to SARS-CoV. Furthermore, it was found that nCoV-2019 is 96% identical at the whole genome level to a bat coronavirus. The pairwise protein sequence analysis of seven conserved non-structural proteins show that this virus belongs to the species of SARSr-CoV. The nCoV-2019 virus was then isolated from the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of a critically ill patient, which can be neutralized by sera from several patients. Importantly, we have confirmed that this novel CoV uses the same cell entry receptor, ACE2, as SARS-CoV.
RESUMEN
We describe the validation of a method for the simultaneous analysis of 29 synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) and metabolites, 4 amphetamines, and 2 cannabinoids in human whole blood. This method enables one analysis to cover what previously required multiple analyses for these classic and novel drugs-of-abuse with diverse physicochemical properties. The scope of targeted analytes was based on the most prevalent drugs-of-abuse and SCs encountered at the New Zealand border in 2017 and included parent compounds and metabolites belonging to the indole and indazole carboxamide, quinolinyl indole carboxylate, and naphthoylindole classifications. Samples were prepared by supported-liquid-extraction (SLE) followed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis with positive electrospray ionization (ESI). The method was validated with respect to selectivity, matrix effects, process efficiency, sensitivity, repeatability, extract stability, and carryover for qualitative confirmation. Linearity as well as accuracy and precision data at target decision concentrations were also evaluated. The limits of detection and confirmation ranged from 0.1 to 6.0 ng/mL and 1.0 to 6.0 ng/mL, respectively. The described method was successfully applied to the analysis of 564 ante- and post-mortem blood samples in 2018. There were 132 cases (23%) with positive findings of at least one SC, with the five most commonly detected SCs being AMB-FUBINACA and/or acid (61%), 5F-ADB and/or acid (40%), ADB-FUBINACA (11%), 5F-MDMB-PICA acid (6%), and MDMB-FUBINACA acid (6%). The results also demonstrate the predominant presence of metabolites at higher levels than the unchanged parent SCs in blood, highlighting the need to maintain forensic screening methods capable of the simultaneous detection of both parent compounds and metabolites.

BACKGROUND: The number of rheumatoid arthritis patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty is increasing, but the postoperative early complications and related risk factors have not been reported. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the early acute complications and the risk factors after primary total knee arthroplasty in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. METHODS: Data of 300 patients (337 knees) with rheumatoid arthritis who received primary total knee arthroplasty at Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from September 2013 to May 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 62 males and 238 females, with an age of (65.61±8.40) years old. All patients signed the informed consent, and the study was approved by the ethics committee of the hospital. The baseline data, comorbidities, preoperative examination, surgical data, other data of hospitalization and follow-up data were recorded. The risk factors of complications were analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to assess the predictive value of risk factors for postoperative complications within 30 days after surgery in rheumatoid arthritis patients. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Nine cases (3.33%) affected acute complications within 30 days after surgery. (2) Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that operation time, age, duration of disease and preoperative cerebrovascular disease were independent risk factors for postoperative complications within 30 days after total knee arthroplasty in rheumatoid arthritis patients. (3) Compared with the non-complication group, in the complication group, the operation time was longer (OR=1.023, 95%CI: 1.001-1.045, P=0.037), the age was increased (OR=1.163, 95%CI: 1.025-1.319, P=0.019), the duration of disease was longer (OR=1.110, 95%CI: 1.031-1.195, P=0.006), and the proportion of preoperative cerebrovascular disease was increased (OR=31.736, 95%CI: 4.053-248.517, P=0.001). (4) The receiver operating characteristic curve to predict the complications in patients with rheumatoid arthritis within 30 days after total knee arthroplasty showed that the area under the curve of age, duration of disease and operation time were 0.693, 0.865 and 0.685, respectively.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the allelopathic effect of garlic volatiles on Angelica sinensis by studying the allelopathic effect of both living garlicand isolated garlic sprout volatiles on A. sinensis, and provide certain theoretical basis for Angelica garlic interplanting mode to alleviate the stress of continuous cropping A. sinensis. Method:Through the determination and analysis of the growth indexes and leaf protective enzyme system of A. sinensis,the adaptability of A. sinensis to continuous cropping stress and non-continuous cropping stress environment under the influence of the volatiles of living garlic and isolated garlic sprout as well as the mechanism of resistant growth and development were discussed. Result:The overall analysis showed that the growth index and leaf protective enzyme activity of isolated garlic sprout with alleloinductive treatment(DC2)under continuous cropping stress were increased by 17.51% and 48.34% respectively as compared with those under single cropping(CK1). The growth index and leaf protective enzyme activity of angelica under continuous cropping and intercropping(LC2)were increased by 16.63% and 36.65% as compared with those under monocrop cropping(CK2). Those indicated that the volatiles of isolated garlic sprout had more significant effect than those of live garlic on alleviating the stress of continuous cropping of A. sinensis. Conclusion:Regardless of the presence of continuous cropping obstacle,appropriate concentrations of living garlic and isolated garlic sprout volatiles had an allelopathic promoting effect on angelica root growth index and leaf protective enzyme activity,and the effect was more obvious in continuous cropping stress conditions,so intercropping garlic has a certain role in alleviating angelica's continuous cropping stress.
RESUMEN
Objective::To study the mechanisms of action of four volatile oil components (safrole, myristicin, methyleugenol and asarone) and the reactive metabolites of safrole and myristicin with CYP1A2. Method::The inhibitory effects of the volatile oil components of Asari Radix et Rhizoma on the human liver microsomal enzymes CYP1A2, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 were screened by the " Cocktail" probe substrate method. The ability of the volatile oil components and intermediates in binding to CYP1A2 enzyme was studied by means of semi-flexible molecular docking. Result::The screening results showed that the components had a strong inhibitory effect on CYP1A2.Molecular docking scores were 3.048 7 kcal·mol-1 (safrole), 6.016 4 kcal·mol-1 (myristicin), 16.969 2 kcal·mol-1 (methyleugenol), 16.013 8 kcal·mol-1 (asarone), 23.923 3 kcal·mol-1 (safrole reactive metabolites) and 25.594 3 kcal·mol-1 (myristicin reactive metabolites). Conclusion::Molecular docking results indicate that safrole metabolic intermediate and myristicin metabolic intermediate have the strongest ability in binding to CYP1A2 enzyme. This study further confirms that safrole and myristicin are the mechanism-based inhibitors of CYP1A2 enzyme, which is consistent with the results of previous IC50-shift and glutathione capture experiments.

RESUMEN
The treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has many advantages, such as the overall regulation of multiple targets, less side effects, stable curative effect and so on. This paper mainly summarizes and analyzes the research progress of TCM treatment of UC in the experiment from two aspects: One is from the perspective of the therapeutic method and principle of Chinese medicine; The other is from the view of Chinese materia medica (CMM) compounds, single Chinese herbs and the active ingredients of CMM, which lay a foundation for the treatment of UC in interpreting the mechanism of TCM. This paper attempts to provide a better treatment for clinic on the basis of the two aspects to analyze the existing problems in the current researches and the direction of future development.
RESUMEN
This study aimed to investigate the effects of subpressure on the bond properties of total-etching adhesive to dentin. Thirty-six caries-free premolars were sectioned parallel to the occlusal plane and randomly divided into four groups (n = 9): a control group (C, no treatment) and three subpressure groups, which were treated under 0.8, 0.6 or 0.4 bar after applying adhesives, named S8, S6 and S4, respectively. Afterward, resin was bonded to the dentin surface, and 27 beams (1.0 mm × 1.0 mm) of each group were sectioned. One was selected to observe the bonding interface from each group by SEM. Each group was divided into two subgroups (n = 13): 24 hours of water storage (I) and 10,000 thermocycling (A). The microtensile bond strength (µTBS), failure modes and nanoleakage expression were evaluated. SEM results showed that the subpressure groups had longer and denser resin tags. The µTBS of the subpressure groups was higher than that of the control group (p < 0.05). The subpressure groups were dominated by mixed failure, whereas main interfacial failure appeared in group C. The subpressure groups showed less silver deposition than the control group (p < 0.05). The subpressure technique may remarkably improve bonding strength and decrease nanoleakage on total-etching bonding.

OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of subpressure on the bond strength of resin to zirconia ceramic. The subpressure would create a pressure gradient which could clean out the bubbles in the adhesives or bonding interface. METHODS: Twenty-eight pre-sintered zirconia discs were fabricated. Half of them were polished (group P, n = 14), and the rest were sandblasted (group S, n = 14). After sintered,the surface roughness of the zirconia discs was measured. Then, they were randomly divided into two subgroups (n = 7). The groups were named as follows: PC: P + no additional treatments; PP: P + 0.04 MPa after application of adhesives; SC: S + no additional treatments; and SP: S + 0.04 MPa after application of adhesives. Resin columns were bonded to the zirconia specimens to determine shear bond strength (SBS). The bonding interfaces were observed and the fracture modes were evaluated. Statistical analysis was performed on all data. RESULTS: The surface roughness of group S was significantly higher than that of group P (P<0.05). The SBS values were PC = 13.48 ± 0.7 MPa, PP = 15.22 ± 0.8 MPa, SC = 17.23 ± 0.7 MPa and SP = 21.68 ± 1.4 MPa. There were significant differences among the groups (P<0.05). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results showed that the adhesives of group SP and PP were closer and denser to the zirconia ceramic than that of group PC and SC. The proportion of the mixed fracture mode significantly increased after adding subpressure (P< 0.05). CONCLUSION: Subpressure can improve the shear bond strength of resin to zirconia ceramics and increase micro-infiltration between the adhesives and the zirconia ceramics, especially on the rough surfaces.
