Objective:To study the metabolic effect in in-patients chronic schizophrenia receiving horticultural therapy.Methods:One hundred and ten in-patients with schizophrenia meeting the criteria and signed informed consent at the rehabilitation wards were included.The random-number methods were used to classify patients into either the intervention group or the control group.The two groups both received normal medications while the intervention group alsoreceived horticultural therapy.The body weight and waist circumference were recorded at baseline,6 and 12-week-follow-up.And fasting blood sugar,triglyceride values were tested at the baseline,4th,8th,and 12th week-session.Results:Fifty-two patients of each group finished the evaluation.Covariance analysis results showed that the average waist circumference was much shorter in the intervention group than in the control group at 12-week-follow-up (F =13.98,P ＜ 0.001).When divided into 3subgroups according to the different drugs,after repeated ANOVA,the average waist circumference of the intervention group became shorter after intervention (olanzapine F =3.62,P ＜ 0.05;risperitone,F =4.46,P ＜ 0.05;aripiprazole,F =4.14,P ＜ 0.05) no matter what the antipsychotics they took.Conclusion:It suggests that horticultural therapy could effectively narrow waist circumferences in hospitalized patients with chronic schizophrenia whatever the antipsychotics the patients take.

Objective To explore the effect of the expressive psychotherapy on the feeling of inadequacy and loneliness of inpatients with chronic schizophrenia.MethodsTotally 120 chronic schizophrenia inpatients met recruited criteria were randomly divided into study group(n=60) and control group(n=60) according to random number table.57 patients in each group finished all the follow-ups finally.The patients in two groups were received normal medications while the patients in intervention group also attended expressive psychotherapy.All the patients were assessed at baseline,6 weeks and 12 weeks of treatment with the feeling of inadequacy scale (FIS) and the status and trait loneliness scale (STLS).Results(1) The FIS score(F=225.19,P<0.01),STLS total score(F=225.20,P<0.01),STLS status score(F=240.40,P<0.01) and STLS trait score(F=106.75,P<0.01) decreased significantly in both groups after intervention.(2) The FIS score of study group was much lower than those of control group at the at 6-week-follow-up(4.93±20.86,57.89±20.48,t=-2.250,P<0.01) and 12-week-follow-up(38.43±17.50,57.21±22.98,t=-4.900,P<0.01).(3) After 6 weeks treatment and 12 weeks treatment,STLS total score(6 weeks:(54.32±12.30) vs (68.46±15.53),t=-5.425,P<0.01,12 weeks:(44.16±10.81) vs (65.75±16.26),t=-8.386,P<0.01),STLS status score (6 weeks:(25.95±6.41) vs (34.31±7.91),t=-6.239,P<0.01,12 weeks:(19.15±5.49) vs (32.58±8.45),t=-10.103,P<0.01) and STLS trait score (6 weeks:(28.37±6.73) vs (34.15±8.45),t=-4.138,P<0.01,12 weeks:(25.00±6.18) vs (33.15±8.22),t=-6.019,P<0.01) in study group were lower than those in control group,and the difference was statistically significant.ConclusionExpressive psychotherapy can effectively improve the loneliness and inadequacy of patients with chronic schizophrenia.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the current status and research hot spots of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）in the prevention and treatment of myocardial ischemia -reperfusion injury （MIRI），and to provide reference for developing relevant studies. METHODS A bibliometric analysis was performed with the literature on TCM treatments for MIRI included in the Web of Science as the data source . RESULTS A total of 972 literatures were included in this study . The research on TCM for prevention and treatment of MIRI in recent 10 years showed an increasing trend year by year ，and the literature published in 2021 were cited most frequently ；most research scholars focused in China ；Peking Union Medical College ，Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences had the most papers in this field ，and a lot of collaboration with other institutions ，which had a large influence in the field ；Sun Guibo and Sun Xiaobo were high -yielding authors in the field ，but the global authorship was not very close and had not formed cooperative teams of some scale ；Molecular Medicine Reports was perhaps the most popular journal in the field . Co-citation analysis found that the research direction in this field was mostly focused on exploring the pathogenesis of MIRI and finding intervention targets . Key words analysis revealed that TCM regulated apoptosis ， pyroptosis， mitochondrial dysfunction ， miRNA and other pathways to improve MIRI research was a hot spot in the field ，and more studies had focused on the Nrf 2 pathway，NF-κB pathway ，NLRP3 inflammasomepathway， TNF pathway ， SIRT3 pathway， JNK pathway ，PI3K/Akt pathway and AMPK pathway . CONCLUSIONS Much attention has been paid to the prevention and treatment of MIRI by TCM in the past 10 years，and the current hot spots in this field are mostly focused on the studies about the intervention mechanism of TCM ’s active ingredients and Chinese patent medicines on MIRI . Moreover，the research about TCM in the treatment of MIRI is mostly focused on the field of basic experiments at present ，and it is recommended that many large -scale，high-quality， multicenter，randomized controlled clinical studies should be carried out in the future ，to provide high -grade evidence -based evidence for the application of TCM in clinic .

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects and potential mechanism of Qiangxin decoction on mitochondrion of rats with chronic heart failure （CHF）. METHODS The CHF model was established by ligating the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery. Modeled rats were divided into model group， Qiangxin decoction low-dose and high-dose groups （12.25， 24.50 g/kg， calculated by crude drug）， and chemical medicine group （Sacubitril valsartan sodium tablets， 10.42 mg/kg）， with 10 rats in each group； control group was set up without treatment. Each group of rats was orally administered with the corresponding medication or normal saline twice a day for 28 consecutive days. After the last medication， the contents of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide （NT-proBNP） and adenosine triphosphate （ATP） in serum and phosphatidic acid （PA） and cardiolipin （CL） in myocardial tissue were all detected； the pathological damage and collagen fibrosis of rat myocardial tissue were observed； the apoptosis of myocardial cells was determined； the ultrastructure of myocardial tissue was observed； the protein expressions of mitofusin 1 （Mfn1）， Mfn2， optic atrophy protein 1 （OPA1） and dynamin-related protein 1 （Drp1） were all detected in myocardial tissue. RESULTS Compared with control group，the serum content of NT-proBNP， apoptotic rate of myocardial cells， and relative expressions of S-OPA1 and Drp1 proteins were all increased significantly； serum content of ATP，contents of PA and CL， and relative expressions of Mfn1， Mfn2 and L-OPA1 proteins were all significantly reduced （P＜0.05）. There were abnormal membrane tissue structure in various layers of myocardial tissue， degeneration and necrosis of myocardial cells， and severe fibrosis； the mitochondria were swollen， with reduced or absent cristae， and uneven matrix density. After intervention with Qiangxin decoction， the levels of the aforementioned quantitative indicators in serum and myocardial tissue of rats （excluding CL content in the Qiangxin decoction low- dose group） were significantly reversed （P＜0.05）； the pathological damage of myocardial tissue had significantly improved， fibrosis had significantly reduced， mitochondrial morphology tended to be normal， cristae had increased， and matrix density was uniform. CONCLUSIONS Qiangxin decoction can regulate myocardial mitochondrial function and structural integrity of CHF rats， thereby improving myocardial energy metabolism and antagonizing myocardial fibrosis， the mechanism of which may be associated with activating PA/Mfn/CL signaling pathway.
