Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Lingze Tablets in the treatment of BPH with kidney deficiency, blood stasis and dampness resistance.
Methods: Totally 235 eligible BPH patients, aged 50－80 years and meeting the inclusion criteria, were enrolled and treated with Lingze Tablets orally, 4 tablets per time, tid. Before and after an 8-week course of medication, IPSS, quality of life (QOL) and TCM syndromes scores were obtained from the patients.
Results: Of the total number of patients, 211 completed the whole course of treatment. Compared with the baseline, the IPSS was dramatically reduced after 4 and 8 weeks of medication (18.28 ± 5.29 vs 12.82 ± 4.66 and 9.23 ± 4.21, P < 0.01), and so were the QOL scores (6.44 ± 1.99 vs 4.95 ± 1.64 and 3.16 ± 1.53, P < 0.01) and TCM syndromes scores (17.49 ± 5.30 vs 12.45 ± 3.74 and 9.17 ± 3.24, P < 0.01). The incidence rates of adverse events and drug-related adverse reactions were 15.2% and 1.9%, respectively, and no organ function impairment was observed.
Conclusions: Lingze Tablets are definitely effective and safe for the treatment of BPH with kidney deficiency, blood stasis and dampness resistance.

Background And Purpose: This study evaluates the early clinical performance of the new Artisse Intrasaccular Device (Artisse ISD), a self-expandable intrasaccular flow diverter, for treating wide-necked aneurysms (WNAs). We report initial safety and efficacy outcomes in the first cohort of patients treated with this novel device.
Methods: Prospective clinical and radiological data were collected for all patients treated with the Artisse ISD at three Austrian neurovascular centers from July 2023 to August 2024.

Venous thromboembolism, characterized by deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is the third cardiovascular disease in the world. Deep vein thrombosis occurs when a blood clot forms in areas of impaired blood flow, and it is significantly affected by environmental factors. Local hypoxia, caused by venous stasis, plays a critical role in deep vein thrombosis under normal conditions, and this effect is intensified when the Po decreases, such as during air travel or high-altitude exposure.

Objective: To characterize early physiologic stresses imposed by surgery by applying metabolomic analyses to deeply phenotype pre- and postoperative plasma and urine of patients undergoing elective surgical procedures.
Background: Patients experience perioperative stress through depletion of metabolic fuels. Bowel stasis or injury might allow more microbiome-derived uremic toxins to enter the blood, while the liver and kidney are simultaneously clearing analgesic and anesthetic drugs.

The hyperaccumulating ecotype Sedum alfredii Hance is one of few Cd hyperaccumulators with Cd contents in leaves and stems up to 9000 mg/kg (dry weight, DW) and 6500 mg/kg (DW) respectively without displaying significant toxicity symptoms as reported in 2004. Numerous studies have been conducted to uncover the mystery of its hypertolerance and hyperaccumulation using high-throughput sequencing, biochemical and molecular techniques, mainly pointing to the root-microorganism interaction, restrained Cd storage in roots, efficient root-shoot translocation, effective cellular detoxification, and phloem-mediated metal remobilization. This also encourages studies on functional genes involved in metal transport, antioxidant, transcription regulation and stress response, providing candidates for genetic modification.
