    Abstract The purpose of this book is to introduce the classified chemical components of hypoglycemic compounds in natural products, summarize the recent research progress of natural products with hypoglycemic activity in the past 20 years, and provide the original analysis and development opinions of relevant scholars. Hypoglycemic compounds are to target diabetes mellitus, an important public health problem, one of four priority noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) targeted for action by world leaders. Diabetes mellitus is a common endocrine and metabolic disease, which not only causes physiological damage to patients' kidneys, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular vessels, peripheral blood vessels, nerves and eyes, but also causes mental and psychological pressure to patients. Due to the evidence that traditional medicine and natural herbal formula have advantages in treating diabetes, natural products with hypoglycemic activity have been studied extensively in recent years and have been accepted by many scholars all over the world. This book focuses on the progress on the study of the structure, hypoglycemic activities, structure-activity relationships and mechanism of a wide range of polysaccharides, flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids, terpenoids, polyphenols and other constituents. It will help students and researchers to understand current approaches and progress in the treatment of diabetes with natural products, which may also be beneficial to develop new hypoglycemic drugs.

    Abstract Background: Medical anthropology plays a crucial role in understanding health, disease, and treatment within contemporary anthropology. As the incidence of tumors rises, with cancer posing a significant threat to human health, particularly malignant brain tumors, such as glioma, the need for accurate preoperative diagnosis and effective treatment strategies is paramount.
    Objective: This study aims to review the literature on the advancements in medical anthropology and innovative medical technologies to enhance preoperative diagnostics, guide treatment strategies, and ultimately improve the survival rates and quality of life for glioma patients.
    Methods: This study reviews and synthesizes existing literature, focusing on chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) imaging's potential to provide detailed information about the tumor microenvironment and metabolism. Extensive searches were conducted across reputable databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and relevant medical journals, to identify studies, articles, and reviews relevant to the connection between medical imaging and anthropological perspectives.
    Results: Examining CEST imaging in glioma reveals promising insights. Through a medical anthropology lens, we assessed the potential for accurate preoperative diagnosis and the development of targeted treatment strategies. The results highlight the significance of integrating technological innovations in medicine with the theoretical foundations of medical anthropology to achieve more effective outcomes in glioma research and practice. Key findings include the transformative impact of CEST imaging on preoperative glioma assessment, its principles, and its ability to distinguish gliomas from other brain masses. The integration of medical anthropology in clinical oncology was explored, highlighting the sociocultural factors influencing patient care and outcomes.
    Conclusions: This study marks a significant milestone in advancing the understanding and treatment of glioma. Integrating medical anthropology with advanced medical imaging technologies improves preoperative diagnostics, fostering innovation in both fields.

    Abstract Combining the advantages of self‐microemulsifying technology and oral fast dissolving technology, a self‐microemulsifying oral fast dissolving films (SMEOFDF) of vitamin D3 was developed in this study. The pseudoternary phase diagram of microemulsion was constructed using water titration method, and the formulation of films was optimized by orthogonal experimental design. The prepared SMEOFDF of vitamin D3 was a thin film, in which the liquid drops of self‐microemulsion were embedded. It had good mechanical properties (thickness 166.7 ± 3.30 µm, tensile strength 38.45 ± 3.72 MPa, elongation 23.38 ± 4.23%, and folding endurance >200 times), and its disintegration time was about 18 ± 1.23 s. After being redissolved in water, microemulsion could form spontaneously, with particle size of 181.2 nm and zeta potential of 16.1 mV. The release profile of vitamin D from SMEOFDF could be well described by first‐order equation.

    Abstract Forensic imaging is a non-invasive examination process during the forensic investigation. It is mainly used in forensic pathology as an adjunct to the traditional autopsy. In the past two decades, forensic imaging has been vigorously developed by forensic experts from computed tomography (CT) to multiple augmented techniques through CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The application field of forensic imaging has also been broadened as its advantages are recognised by more forensic practitioners. In addition to the forensic pathology, this technique has been used in other forensic disciplines, including forensic anthropology, forensic odontology, forensic ballistics and wildlife forensics, etc. This article reviews the development of forensic imaging as the practice and research development in different forensic disciplines based on the relevant literature analysis.

    Abstract Thermal feedback plays an important role in tactile perception, greatly influencing fields such as autonomous robot systems and virtual reality. The further development of intelligent systems demands enhanced thermosensation, such as the measurement of thermal properties of objects to aid in more accurate system perception. However, this continues to present certain challenges in contact-based scenarios. For this reason, this study innovates by using the concept of semi-infinite equivalence to design a thermosensation system. A discrete transient heat transfer model was established. Subsequently, a data-driven method was introduced, integrating the developed model with a back propagation (BP) neural network containing dual hidden layers, to facilitate accurate calculation for contact materials. The network was trained using the thermophysical data of 67 types of materials generated by the heat transfer model. An experimental setup, employing flexible thin-film devices, was constructed to measure three solid materials under various heating conditions. Results indicated that measurement errors stayed within 10% for thermal conductivity and 20% for thermal diffusion. This approach not only enables quick, quantitative calculation and identification of contact materials but also simplifies the measurement process by eliminating the need for initial temperature adjustments, and minimizing errors due to model complexity.

    Abstract Background: Suicidal ideation is a noteworthy health problem that requires further study in the field of interpersonal relationships. The main scope of relationships include family, teachers, peers, and the Internet. However, few studies have considered the effects of interpersonal interactions. Based on the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide, this study explores the relation between different interpersonal relationships and suicidal ideation.
    Methods: A network analysis approach was used to test the relationships. Cross-sectional data (N = 1694; 52.1 % boys; M
    Results: All variables showed a significant correlation in this inferred network. Family, teacher-student, and peer relationships are protective against suicidal ideation. The closeness of the teacher-student relationship showed the highest strength centrality. However, online interpersonal relationship is a risk factor for suicide. Thwarted belongingness and perceived burdensomeness are proximal factors of suicidal ideation that influenced all interpersonal relationships.
    Limitations: The network analysis as a data-driven and exploratory method may be limited to provide exact cause and effect relationship.
    Conclusions: This study shows that teacher-student connections may be more important than other relationships of young people. Improper peer and online interpersonal relationship could be risky for suicide. Further studies are needed to examine the role of these relationships elaborately.
