OBJECTIVE:To train the students’ability about true-and-false identification of pini pollen,typhae pollen and Lygo-dium japonicum. METHODS:Teachers firstly used flexible and diversifided teaching methods to train the learning interest of stu-dents,and then picture antithesis,classroom presentation and other methods were used to teach the distinctive features between the true and false traditional Chinese medicine in the characters of identification. RESULTS&CONCLUSIONS:There were obvious dif-ference among the colors,physicochmical poperties,microscopic characteristics and other aspects of 3 traditional Chinese medi-cines. According to the teaching,the students could not only distinguish the 3 traditional Chinese medicines accurately, but also could identify the true-and-false of them. picture antithesis and classroom presentation method are simple and vivid, and can be used for the training of students’ability about true-and-false identification.

This study was undertaken to investigate mother-to-infant transmission of human parvovirus B19 and the significance of prevalence of B19 virus in abnormal fetuses in Guandong. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR)was established to detect parvovirus B19 DNA in 700 sera from 350 maternal-infant pair groups. The prevalence of B19 virus DNA was 1.14％ (4/350)and 0.28％(1/350)in the sera of pregnant women and cord blood of their neonates respectively. Parvovirus B19 DNA sequences were also detected in abnormal fetuses and new-born by PCR. The positive results were obtained in 5 samples of fetal tissues from 17 abnormal fetuses and in 3 those of neonatal tissues from 7 cases of neonatal death. The amplified products of PCR were identified to be the target DNA with Hae Ⅲ digestion. By in situ hybridization ,parvovirus DNA could be detected mainly in the nuclei of immature hematopoetic cells within fetal brain or spleen whose PCR tests were positive. The study results suggest that human parvovirus B19 infection does exist in maternal-infant transmission in Guangdong and might lead to harm on fetuses,but the prevalence rate of B19 virus may be very low. The evaluation of B19 virus infection might depend on reliable assay to determine present infection or past infection.

Objective:Postdoctoral researchers in Chinese universities commonly face a high risk of mental health issues,such as depression,yet the underlying causes and mechanisms remain unclear.This study aims to explore the influence of childhood socioeconomic status(SES)on depression among postdoctoral researchers and the mediating roles of current subjective SES and perceived stress in this process. Methods:An online survey was conducted among postdoctoral researchers at a university.The survey included a general information questionnaire,the Childhood Socioeconomic Status Scale,the Subjective Socioeconomic Status Scale,the Perceived Stress Scale,and the Patient Health Questionnaire.A total of 505 valid responses were collected.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the data,and the PROCESS macro was employed for chain mediation analysis. Results:Childhood SES was significantly positively correlated with current subjective SES(P<0.05)and significantly negatively correlated with postdoctoral tenure,perceived stress,and depression(all P<0.05).Current subjective SES was significantly negatively correlated with perceived stress and depression(both P<0.05),while perceived stress was significantly positively correlated with depression(P<0.05).The chain mediation effect of childhood SES → current subjective SES → perceived stress → depression was significant(P<0.05). Conclusion:Childhood socioeconomic status can influence depression among postdoctoral researchers through the mediating roles of current subjective socioeconomic status and perceived stress.These findings provide a target for the prevention and intervention of depression in postdoctoral populations and offer a reference for the development of mental health promotion strategies for young university faculty.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Astragali Radix-Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata in the treatment of heart failure and substance basis based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time of flight-mass spectrometer （UPLC-Q-TOF-MS） and network pharmacology. MethodThe chemical components of Astragali Radix-Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata solution was analyzed by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS， and the active components and targets were screened out by the PubChem database. The targets related to heart failure disease were retrieved from Comparative Toxicogenomics Database（CTD）， Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man （OMIM）， and GeneCard databases， and the common targets were obtained by Venn analysis. The target protein-protein interactions （PPI） were analyzed using the STRING database. Gene ontology （GO） functional enrichment analysis and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment analysis were performed using the Metascape database， and molecular docking verification of key targets and active components was performed using SYBYL-X 2.1.1. Experimental validation of key targets was carried out using the rat model of heart failure. ResultThere were 202 chemical components identified in Astragali Radix-Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata solution， of which 64 active components were predicted to act on 183 targets for the treatment of heart failure. The important active components were caffeic acid， L-arginine， biochanin A， adenine， nicotinic acid， trans-ferulic acid， p-coumaric acid， riboflavin， calycosin， etc. The main targets were interleukin （IL）-6， cysteine aspartic acid specific protease （Caspase）-3， vascular endothelial growth factor A （VEGFA）， protein kinase B1 （Akt1）， tumor necrosis factor （TNF）， IL-1B， matrix metallopeptidase （MMP）-9， etc. The main signaling pathways involved hypoxia-inducible factor （HIF）-1 signaling pathway， TNF signaling pathway， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/Akt signaling pathway， Toll-like receptor signaling pathway， mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） signaling pathway， forkhead box O （FoxO） signaling pathway， etc. The molecular docking results showed that the active components in Astragali Radix-Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata solution had a good binding ability with HIF-1α， VEGFA， Akt1， Caspase-3， and IL-6， which were the key proteins in the HIF-1 signaling pathway. Animal experiments showed that Astragali Radix-Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata solution significantly improved the hemodynamic indexes， reduced the serum atrial natriuretic peptide （ANP）， brain natriuretic peptide （BNP）， and IL-6 levels， improved the myocardial histopathological changes， protected the mitochondrial morphology of cardiomyocytes， down-regulated the expression of HIF-1α， VEGFA and phosphorylation（p）-Akt， and reduced the activation of Caspase-3 in the myocardial tissue of rats with heart failure. ConclusionAstragali Radix-Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata treats heart failure in a multi-component， multi-target， and multi-pathway manner. The experimental validation indicates that it treats heart failure by improving myocardial histopathological changes and regulating HIF-1 signaling pathway， which provides references for the subsequent pharmacodynamic substance research.

【Objective】 To investigate the risk factors of vasovagal reactions(VVR) related to plasma donation, so as to put forward clinical suggestions for early identification and accurate intervention of high-risk groups to ensure the safety of plasma donation. 【Methods】 The demographic characteristics(i.e. gender, age, weight) and records of plasma donors(donation history, pulse before plasma donation, duration of collection, etc.) were collected from July to December 2019 in a region of Sichuan. Based on logistic regression analysis, the correlation between these factors and the risk of VVR was explored. 【Results】 The information of 69 172 donors was collected, and the incidence of VVR was 7.04‰. The risk of VVR was reduced by 99% in the group with plasma collection duration less than 30 minutes compared with the group with plasma collection duration more than 50 minutes(OR, 0.01; 95% CI, 0.00~0.01; P<0.001). The risk of male group was 94 % lower than that of female group(OR, 0.06; 95% CI, 0.04~0.10; P<0.001). Compared with the 45~50 kg group, the risk of weight greater than 80 kg group decreased by 80%(OR, 0.20; 95% CI, 0.09~0.42; P<0.001). The risk of repeated donation group was 34 % lower than that of the first time donation group(OR, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.47~0.91; P<0.001). The risk of VVR in the group with pulse greater than 90 bpm before plasma donation was 2.43 times that in the 60~69 bmp group(OR, 2.43; 95% CI, 1.75~3.36; P<0.001). 【Conclusion】 Duration of plasma collection, gender, weight, frequency of plasma donation, pulse before plasma donation and donor status are independent risk factors for plasma donation-related VVR. Among them, plasma collection duration, gender and weight were the main independent risk factors for plasma donation-related VVR. For donors with plasma collection duration more than 50 minutes, female and low weight, higher risk of VVR was presented and more preventive intervention should be given.
