Objective To observe the effects of Fuzheng Huayu Capsule on the expressions of the main roles, Rock1 and Rock2, in RhoA/Rock signal transduction pathway in rats with myocardial infarction (MI);To explore the possible mechanism of Fuzheng Huayu Capsule to improve ventricular remodeling in myocardial fibrosis. Methods The MI model was induced by ligation of the left coronary artery. Rats with MI were randomly divided into the model group, Fuzheng Huayu group and Fasudil hydrochloride group. A sham-operation group threading without ligation was setting as a control group, with eight rats in each group. The rats were treated with corresponding medicine for 4 weeks from the second day after modeling. The expression of Rock1, Rock2 and its mRNA were detected by immunohistochemical and real-time PCR method. Results The protein expression of Rock1 and Rock2 in model group were significantly higher than those in the sham-operation group (P<0.05). The protein expression of Rock1 and Rock2 in the Fuzheng Huayu group and Fasudil hydrochloride group were lower than those in the model group. The mRNA expression of Rock2 was significantly higher in the model group than that in the sham-operation group (P<0.05). The mRNA expression of Rock1 in the Fasudil hydrochloride group was lower than that in the model group (P<0.05). The mRNA expression of Rock2 in the Fuzheng Huayu group and Fasudil hydrochloride group was lower than that in the model group (P<0.05). Conclusion Fuzheng Huayu Capsule can decrease the expression of Rock1, Rock2 and Rock2 in the marginal zone of myocardial infarction in rats with MI. The anti ventricular remodeling mechanism of Fuzheng Huayu Capsule maybe related with this.

Objective:To explore the relationship between sex hormone binding globulin and glycolipid metabolism in patients with obese polycystic ovary syndrome.Methods:From April 2016 to April 2019, 114 patients with obese polycystic ovary syndrome in the Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital of Wenzhou were selected and divided into two groups according to the level of sex hormone binding globulin, including 66 cases in the low level group and 48 cases in the normal group.The blood glucose, blood lipid and sex hormone levels of the two groups were measured and the results were analyzed.Results:The levels of TC, TG, LDL-C and ApoB in the low level group[(2.32±0.97)mmol/L, (6.45±1.25)mmol/L, (3.57±1.01)mmol/L, (0.93±0.32)g/L] were significantly higher than those in the normal group[(1.87±0.89)mmol/L, (4.88±0.94)mmol/L, (3.12±0.88)mmol/L, (0.76±0.17)g/L]( t=2.477-7.322, all P<0.05). The level of ApoA in the low level group[(1.22±0.34)g/L] was significantly lower than that in the normal group[(1.58±0.47)g/L]( t=-4.748, P<0.05), while there was no statistically significant difference in HDL-C between the two groups[(1.45±0.31)mmol/L vs.(1.43±0.56)mmol/L, t=0.244, P>0.05]. The levels of FPG, HbA1C and FINS in the low level group[(5.53±1.45)mmol/L, (6.42±0.79)% and (18.71±5.46)mU/L] were significantly higher than those in the normal group[(5.09±0.76)mmol/L, (6.01±0.92)% and (15.49±4.98)mU/L]( t=2.136-3.225, all P<0.05), while there was no statistically significant difference in 2hPG between the two groups[(8.79±1.56)mmol/L vs.(8.32±1.84)mmol/L]( t=1.472, P>0.05). The incidence of insulin resistance in the low level group[54.55%(36/66)] was significantly higher than that in the normal group[35.42%(17/48)](χ 2=4.088, P<0.05). The level of T in the low level group[(61.45±21.44)ng/mL] was significantly higher than that in the normal group[(50.39±22.31)ng/mL]( t=2.673, P<0.05), while there were no statistically significant differences in FSH, LH, E 2 and PRL between the two groups( t=0.427-1.714, all P>0.05). Conclusion:The patients with low levels of sex hormone binding globulin are more likely to suffer from hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia, and low levels of sex hormone binding globulin may be a risk factor for obese polycystic ovary syndrome.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2020;41(11):1716-1718
Objective:
To analyze the current situation and needs of primary and secondary school health clinic services, and to provide a reference for strengthening school health service in China.
Methods:
Investigation provinces were selected according to China s three major economic zones, 1 or 2 survey centers were selected from each province, 16 provinces and 26 survey centers were selected. In each survey centers, six schools from primary and secondary schools, junior high schools and high schools in urban and rural areas were randomly selected as research sites. Each research site randomly selected 10 students in each grade(grade three, four, five from primary schools) to fill in the questionnaire anonymously. A total of 4 661 valid questionnaires were collected.
Results:
Among the services provided by the school clinics to students, "trauma treatment" "consulting health problems" "physical examination" accounted for 49.4%, 40.5% and 39.0% respectively. Within the past one year, 45.1% students went to the school clinic for consultation or consultation 1-3 times, 6.4% for 4-5 times, and 3.7% for 6 times or more. When students were sick in school, 65.8%(primary school), 64.0%(junior high school), and 54.4%(high school) of them selected to go to the school clinic. When suddenly suffered trauma in school, 78.2%(primary school), 73.2%(junior high school) and 69.6%(high school) of the students went to the school clinic.
Conclusion
Primary and middle school students have a great demand for school health services, and it is necessary to continue to strengthen the construction of primary and secondary school health clinics.
6.Association between nutritional status and puberty onset in boys
Chinese Journal of School Health 2020;41(6):807-810
Objective:
To explore the relationship between nutritional status and puberty onset in boys, and to provide a reference for promoting the development of physical and mental health of boys.
Methods:
A total of 2 724 boys aged 7 to 12 years from grade 2 to 6 were recruited from Xiamen city by cluster sampling method in 2017. The nutritional status was assessed by physical examination, pubertal developmental status was evaluated by rating scales of Tanner and Prader orchidometer, and puberty timing was determined by the P25 age of puberty onset. The association between nutritional status and puberty onset was estimated by logistic regression model.
Results:
Pubertal onset was found in 29.0% of the boys and the incidence of early pubertal timing was 2.9%. The prevalence of puberty onset in wasting, normal weight, overweight and obesity boys was 19.6%, 28.7%, 34.4% and 31.5%, respectively. The age of puberty onset was significantly earlier in obese boys (F=3.23, P<0.05). The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that with the increase of BMI, the possibility of puberty onset and risk of early pubertal timing increased. After adjusting for confounding factors, the odds of puberty onset in boys with wasting decreased by 64.0% (OR=0.36, 95%CI=0.22-0.60), the possibility of puberty onset and risk of early pubertal timing in boys with obesity increased by 78.3% (OR=1.78, 95%CI=1.14-2.79) and 192.9% (OR=2.93, 95%CI=1.46-5.86), respectively. These relationships were more pronounced in boys of households with lower economic level (P<0.05).
Conclusion
BMI was positively correlated with puberty onset in boys, the odds of puberty onset and risk of early pubertal timing were significantly increased in obese boys, especially in those with low household economic level.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the genetic basis for a child with Aspartylglucosaminuria (AGU).
METHODS:
Clinical data of the patient was analyzed. The child was subjected to trio-whole exome sequencing (WES) and copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq), and candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing.
RESULTS:
The child was found to harbor homozygous c.319C>T (p.Arg107*) nonsense variant of the AGA gene, for which both of his parents were heterozygous carriers. No abnormality was found by CNV-seq analysis. The c.319C>T (p.Arg107*) variant was not found in population database, HGMD and other databases. Based on guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, the variant was predicted to be pathogenic (PVS1+PM2+PP3).
CONCLUSION
The c.319C>T variant of the AGA gene probably underlay the autosomal recessive AGU in this child. Above finding has enabled genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis for his parents.
