This study analyzed a lipidomic profile of platelets from blood stasis rats by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The blood stasis rat was established by low-dose continuous subcutaneous injection of adrenaline, and the evaluation indexes included hemorheology and platelet aggregation. Principal component analysis and partial least-squares discriminant analysis were used to analyze platelet lipidomics, and p-value < 0.05, fold change > 1.5, and variable importance plot > 2 were used to screen potential biomarkers. Then, the biomarkers were optimized by the receiver operating characteristic curve. Compared with the normal rat, the blood stasis model group's whole blood viscosity and platelet aggregation rate were also significantly increased at different shear rates (p < 0.05). Twenty-four potential lipid biomarkers showed significant changes in platelets between the two groups. Among them, six long-chain acylcarnitine components and three sphingosine components showed a consistent downward trend, suggesting that these two kinds of components may play an essential role in the process of platelet aggregation. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based lipidomics studies provide much information to understand the pathology of platelets in blood stasis.

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.

Introduction: Flow diversion is an effective first-line treatment for intracranial aneurysms; however, the rate of incomplete occlusion is not insignificant. Data in neuroendovascular literature is limited regarding the implications of persistent incomplete occlusion despite flow diversion.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained database and identified 125 consecutive patients with treatment naïve intracranial aneurysms who underwent flow diversion with the PED from April 2014 - November 2022.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Rhubarb has the effect of breaking blood stasis and abnormal mass, and was often used to treat various tumor diseases including liver cancer in ancient China. Recipes containing rhubarb have anti-liver cancer properties and are still used today. However, the main components and mechanism of action of rhubarb against liver cancer are still unclear.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: The dried fruit of Crataegus pinnatifida Bunge (Hawthorn in Chinese) is a traditional medicine used in China, Japan and Korea for thousands of years. Hawthorn is documented in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, as a folk medicine that is used to eliminate food, strengthen the stomach, move qi and dissipate blood stasis, treat stagnation of meat and food, gastric distention and fullness, and has anti-inflammatory effects. Vitexin, a flavonoid glycoside, is an important biologically active compound derived from Hawthorn, with significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Objective: Aim: To study the peculiarities of food tolerance disorders in premature infants, taking into account the risk factors of gestational age and maternal labor, the peculiarities of the course of perinatal pathology, in order to determine pathogenetically sound clinical and laboratory criteria.
Patients And Methods: Materials and Methods: A comprehensive clinical and laboratory evaluation was performed on 67 preterm infants of gestational age 32 to 33/6 weeks with severe food tolerance disorders in perinatal pathology. The comparison group consisted of 31 newborns with gestational age of 34 to 37 weeks.
