The processing of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) is a core theory within TCM, embodying deep philosophical, cultural, and natural scientific wisdom. Among the various techniques, the "synergistic processing of medicinal materials and excipients" has garnered significant attention due to its uniqueness. This study explored the impact of the adjuvant Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma on the dynamic process of component transformation during the processing of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata using techniques such as acidic dye colorimetry, UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS, density functional theory(DFT), and molecular dynamics simulations(MDS).

To explore whether Digital transformation can improve the core competitiveness of traditional manufacturing enterprises, and what factors affect this process, this study establishes the core competitiveness system of enterprises through the principal component analysis(PCA) method and discusses the above issues through the construction of a double difference model. The results of this research from China's traditional manufacturing industry are as follows.

Chinese medicine has been recently found to show good efficacy in treating endometriosis. Our previous results revealed that Maqian fruit essential oil (MQEO) could inhibit the proliferation and induce apoptosis of ectopic endometrial stromal cells (EESCs), but the mechanisms remain unclear.

An effective diagnostic method can accurately guide clinical surgical planning and the scope of lymph node dissection, ultimately improving patient prognosis.
Aim: To explore the diagnostic value of fine-needle aspiration of thyroglobulin (FNA-Tg) combined with ultrasound (US)-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology for cervical lymph node metastasis in thyroid carcinoma.

Objective: To analyze the relevant factors occult II lymph node metastases in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with clinical factors.
Methods: The medical records of 213 PTC patients with clinically positive neck lymph nodes in level III and IV, and/or V based on preoperative ultrasonography, treated between January 2003 and December 2009 were retrospectively reviewed. All patients had no suspicion of clinical positive neck nodes in level II.

Objective: To analyze the occult level V lymph node (LN) metastases in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with clinical factors.
Methods: The clinical data of 203 PTC patients with clinical positive neck lymph nodes in level II, III and IV based on preoperative ultrasonography, who underwent therapeutic lateral neck dissection (level II-V) between January 2001 and June 2009 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 60 male and 143 female patients in the study.
The typical phase correction term introduced in a diffraction grating-pair is rediscussed. It shows that the correction causes a conceptual difficulty in geometrical optics. A study reveals that Fraunhofer diffraction explains the correction and only mean-phase light rays are allowed for diffraction analysis.

Raman spectra of 1,1,3,3-tetramethylurea in 20 solvents were obtained to investigate the solute-solvent interactions and to correlate solvent properties such as the Kirkwood-Bauer-Magat (KBM)equation, the solvent acceptor number (AN)and the linear solvation energy relationships (LSER), respectively, with the Raman shifts of carbonyl group. There is little linear relation between dielectric constants and the Raman shift. These solvents were divided into two sections by the acceptor number.

Fermi resonance is one of the general and important phenomena in vibration spectra. The method of solvent variation is one of the main methods to study Fermi resonance. In the present paper, FTIR spectroscopy was used to study the Fermi resonance of p-benzoquinone in thirteen solvents.

The visible absorption spectra of p-benzoquinone (PBQ) in CS2 were measured, and a weak absorption band around 507 nm attributed to n-pi* singlet-triplet transition was denonstrated. Using the resonance Raman effect excited in liquid-core optical fiber which can enhance Raman intensity by 6-9 orders of magnitude, the authors obtained the 514.5 nm excited resonance Raman (RR) spectra of PBQ at 1439 cn(-1) in the concentration range from 10(-3) to 10(-6) mol x L(-1).
