[Integrated evidence chain: a new strategy and methodology for effectiveness e valuation of traditional Chinese medicines].

The evaluation of the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) has long been a "bottleneck" issue that restricts the healthy development and internationalization of TCM. This article systematically analyzes the differences in diagnostic and treatment principles, material composition, new drug development pathways, efficacy cognition, and evaluation methodology between Chinese and Western medicine from the underlying logic of medical perspective. On this basis, it integrates the evidence elements of clinical experience, experimental research, and clinical trials, and for the first time proposes and establishes a new strategy and methodology for the evaluation of the effectiveness of TCM: the integrated evidence chain-based effectiveness evaluation of traditional Chinese medicine(iEC-Eff), forming an integrated evaluation and confirmation model of "clinical experience-experimental research-clinical trial" for the effectiveness of TCM.

[Effect of Nitrification Inhibitors on Soil Nitrogen Dynamics and Microbial Community Structure in Aerated Paddy Field].

The aim of this study was to clarify the effects of nitrification inhibitors on the dynamic changes in the nitrogen and microbial community in paddy soil under aerated irrigation by using the indica hybrid rice Zhongzheyou 8 as experimental material. A trial with three treatments was conducted in 2023： conventional flooding irrigation （CF）, micro-nano bubble water aeration irrigation （MB）, and micro-nano bubble water aeration irrigation combined with nitrification inhibitor （MBNI）. The effects of nitrification inhibitors on the contents of NH-N and NO-N and the apparent nitrification rate of soil under aerated irrigation were analyzed, as well as the characteristics of bacterial community diversity and its correlation with soil chemical factors.

Ligand-Enabled Cu-Catalyzed Stereoselective Synthesis of P-Stereogenic ProTides.

Nucleoside analogues have seen significant advancements in treating viral infections and cancer through ProTide technology, leading to a series of FDA-approved drugs such as sofosbuvir, tenofovir alafenamide, and remdesivir. The stereochemical configuration at the phosphorus center of ProTides significantly influences their pharmacological properties, necessitating efficient stereoselective synthesis. Traditional methods using chiral auxiliaries or nonracemic phosphorylating agents are labor-intensive and inefficient, while recent organocatalytic approaches, despite their promise, still face limitations.

In addition, the influence of 10 factors, including environmental factors and human factors, on the spatial-temporal variations of vegetation coverage was quantified by geodetector.

Ammonium improved cell wall and cell membrane P reutilization and external P uptake in a putrescine and ethylene dependent pathway.

Ammonium promotes rice P uptake and reutilization better than nitrate, under P starvation conditions; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In this study, ammonium treatment significantly increased putrescine and ethylene content in rice roots under P deficient conditions, by increasing the protein content of ornithine decarboxylase and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) oxidase compared with nitrate treatment. Ammonium treatment increased rice root cell wall P release by increasing pectin content and pectin methyl esterase (PME) activity, increased rice shoot cell membrane P release by decreasing phosphorus-containing lipid components, and maintained internal P homeostasis by increasing OsPT2/6/8 expression compared with nitrate treatment.
