Drought stress is one of the key environmental factors restricting germination alfalfa seeds (Medicago sativa L.). Nanopriming an innovative seed-priming technology able to meet economic, agronomic, and needs in agriculture. However, use conventional nanomaterials hampered by high costs, risks, biotoxicity. In this study, we synthesized iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4NPs) using seasonal Ginkgo biloba leaf extracts (collected from August November) obtained via enzymatic ultrasonic-assisted method. The Fe3O4NPs were characterized SEM, EDS, DLS, FTIR, UV-Vis, XRD. To investigate effects Fe3O4NP priming on seed under drought stress, pot experiments conducted with five concentrations (unprimed, 0, 20, 40, 60 mg/L) three PEG-6000 (0%, 10%, 15%) simulate normal, moderate, severe conditions. results showed that collected November exhibited highest flavonoid content (12.8 mg/g), successfully yielding bioactive-capped spherical a particle size 369.5 ± 100.6 nm. Germination revealed (15% PEG-6000), 40 mg/L treatment most effectively enhanced vigor, increasing rate, vigor index, α-amylase activity 22.1%, 189.4%, 35.5% (p < 0.05), respectively, compared controls. Under moderate (10% 20 optimally improved traits, rate 25.5% seedling elongation 115.6%. demonstrated morphological adaptations seedlings: significantly increased lateral root numbers, while surface area 20.5% preserved roots’ structural integrity These findings highlight ultrasonic methods exhibit promising agricultural potential. optimal resistance modulating morphology, concentration-specific efficacy varying intensities.

This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to assess the efficacy of GBE in treatment IPF by evaluating its impact on total effective rate, blood gas analysis, pulmonary function tests, markers inflammation fibrosis. We conducted a comprehensive search across seven databases, including PubMed, EMBASE, Web Science, CNKI, Wanfang DATA, VIP, CBM, without restrictions publication date. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that investigated effects patients were eligible for inclusion. Relevant literature was screened, data included studies extracted quality assessment according Risk bias tool. A 14 RCTs involving 1043 analysis. significantly improved arterial oxygen partial pressure, saturation, forced vital capacity, expiratory volume one second, maximum voluntary ventilation, 6-min walk test compared control group. Additionally, there significant reduction carbon dioxide interleukin-4, hyaluronan, laminin levels. may offer therapeutic benefits improving respiratory function, modulating inflammation, affecting fibrosis markers. These findings support potential use as an adjunct therapy suggest further large-scale, multicenter are warranted confirm safety.
