Recently, traditional Chinese medicine-based treatment has succeeded in fighting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and (Huangjing) has been one of the recommended components. Its processed products play antidiabetic, antiviral, antitumor, antioxidation, antifatigue, antiaging, and immune enhancement roles. The climate in Mount Tai is mild, and the dense forest is suitable for the growth of which has gradually evolved into a unique specie. Considering the important medicinal value and pleasant taste of Mount Tai various healthy and functional food products, controlled by quality markers with anti-COVID-19 potential, as well as emergency foods can be developed. The study aimed to review current evidence on the nutritional value of from Mount Tai and its usefulness as a traditional Chinese medicine, source of herbzyme, and potential remediating agent for COVID-19 and food shortage. Most recent findings regarding herbal nanomedicine have revealed that nanoscale chemical compounds are potentially efficient in drug delivery or nanozyme catalysis upon bioprocessing. Nanoflower structure is found in processed by self-assembly and has wide application in enzymatic events, particularly nanoscale herbzyme. The novel findings regarding Mount could enhance its novel applications in chronic and hidden hunger, clinical nanomedicine, and as an anti-COVID-19 agent.

Importance: Classification of persons with long COVID (LC) or post-COVID-19 condition must encompass the complexity and heterogeneity of the condition. Iterative refinement of the classification index for research is needed to incorporate newly available data as the field rapidly evolves.
Objective: To update the 2023 research index for adults with LC using additional participant data from the Researching COVID to Enhance Recovery (RECOVER-Adult) study and an expanded symptom list based on input from patient communities.
Relationship Between Severity of Ischemia and Coronary Artery Disease for Different Stress Test Modalities in the ISCHEMIA Trial.
Circ Cardiovasc Interv
December 2024
Cardiovascular Clinical Research Center, Department of Medicine, NYU Grossman School of Medicine, New York, NY (H.R.R., L.P., S.B., J.S.H.).
Background: The relationship between the extent and severity of stress-induced ischemia and the extent and severity of anatomic coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with obstructive CAD is multifactorial and includes the intensity of stress achieved, type of testing used, presence and extent of prior infarction, collateral blood flow, plaque characteristics, microvascular disease, coronary vasomotor tone, and genetic factors. Among chronic coronary disease participants with site-determined moderate or severe ischemia, we investigated associations between ischemia severity on stress testing and the extent of CAD on coronary computed tomography angiography.
Methods: Clinically indicated stress testing included nuclear imaging, echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, or nonimaging exercise tolerance test.
[Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of dry eye (2024)].
Zhonghua Yan Ke Za Zhi
December 2024
Article Synopsis
- The prevalence of dry eye syndrome is rising due to an aging population and increased screen time, presenting various complex causes.
- Research and debates regarding the diagnosis and treatment of dry eye have been ongoing, leading to previous expert consensus in 2013.
- Recently, the Cornea Group of Chinese Ophthalmological Society and the Cornea Group of Ophthalmology Branch updated this consensus to incorporate the latest clinical findings and better address clinical needs.
GSK3β Deficiency Expands Obese Adipose Vasculature to Mitigate Metabolic Disorders.
Circ Res
December 2024
Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Macau, China. (L.W., J.L., P.T., D.Z., L.T., Y.W., L.D.).
Background: Maintaining a well-developed vascular system alongside adipose tissue (AT) expansion significantly reduces the risk of metabolic complications. Although GSK3β (glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta) is known for its role in various cellular processes, its specific functions in AT and regulation of body homeostasis have not been reported.
Methods: GSK3β-floxed and GSK3α-floxed mice were crossed with adiponectin-Cre mice to generate GSK3β or GSK3α adipocyte-specific knockout mice (GSK3β and GSK3α).
Causal relationship between sleep characteristics and thyroid function: A bidirectional Mendelian randomization study.
Medicine (Baltimore)
November 2024
Department of Geriatrics, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Jinan, Shandong, China.
Article Synopsis
- Previous research indicates some connections between thyroid function and sleep, but the exact causal relationships are still unclear.
- This study used genetic data to explore how hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism may influence five specific sleep traits: chronotype, sleep duration, daytime sleepiness, and insomnia.
- Results showed no significant causal links between the sleep traits and abnormal thyroid function, but there was some evidence suggesting a possible relationship between hypothyroidism, short sleep duration, and daytime sleepiness.
