Objective :
To analyze the status and influencing factors of the intention of people aged 18 to 25 years to primary medical institutions and their satisfaction for health services in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide basis for the improvement of health services in primary medical institutions.
Methods:
During November and December in 2019,the 18-25 year-old people in Zhejiang Province were recruited to investigate the general information, intention to seek medical advice and satisfaction for health services in primary medical institutions through WeChat. Logistic regression was performed to analyze the influencing factors of the intention and the satisfaction. Importance matrix was used to analyze the key drivers of the satisfaction.
Results:
Among the 620 people surveyed, with a response rate of 93.37%, 142 (22.90%) chose primary medical institutions for advice. Actually 516 (83.23%) people went to primary medical institutions last year, and 384 ( 74.42% ) of them were satisfied with the health services. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the people aged 18-25 years who were under the new rural cooperative medical care system ( OR=3.062, 95%CI: 1.745-5.373 ) and who had records in community health centers ( OR=0.547, 95%CI: 0.308-0.970 ) were more likely to go to primary medical institutions for medical advice; the ability of doctors ( OR=1.478, 95%CI:1.168-1.871 ) ,the drug notification by medical staff ( OR=1.308, 95%CI: 1.065-1.606 ) , routine examination items ( OR=1.523, 95%CI: 1.227-1.889 ) , the ways of payment ( OR=1.168, 95%CI: 1.017-1.340 ) , the comfort of environment ( OR=1.785, 95%CI: 1.437-2.219 ) and the bulletin boards of health knowledge ( OR=1.302, 95%CI: 1.086-1.561 ) were associated with the satisfaction. The results of importance matrix analysis showed that the ability of doctors and routine examination items were the priorities to improve, followed by the drug notification by medical staff; the comfort of environment had competitive advantages; the ways of payment and the bulletin boards of health knowledge needed to be further analyzed.
Conclusions
The 18-25-year-old people in Zhejiang Province were less intended to seek medical advice in primary medical institutions, which was associated with the type of medical insurance and records in community health centers. They were satisfied with the health services, the ability of doctors and routine examination items were the key drivers.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)is the main pathogen that causes COVID-19,which is fast-mutating and highly transmissible.The infection has led to a global epidemic.As the main preventive and control measure,vaccination plays a critical role in fighting a-gainst COVID-19.Although a large number of epitope-based and mucosal vaccines have been stud-ied,few peptide epitope vaccines targeting the mucosa and their functional evaluation have been re-ported.In this study,we used SARS-CoV-2 structural protein M peptide epitope predicted by the IEDB database as an antigenic target to design the MS-3S gene containing 3 050 and 1 229 signal peptides and DCpep optimized for insertion into MS2 phage coat proteins.The expression plasmid pSIP:MS-3S was constructed by cloning the PCR fragments seamlessly and was transformed into Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 18 to obtain the recombinant bacterium LP18:MS-3S.Expression conditions such as induction time,inducer concentration,rotational speed and initial pH were opti-mized.The intranasal immunization experiments were performed to examine the vaccine efficacy.The results showed that the 916 bp-long target gene MS-3S modified and optimized was amplified and used to successfully construct the recombinant bacterial strain LP18:MS-3S.The optimal con-ditions for recombinant protein expression were obtained and verified by Western blot,flow cy-tometry,immunofluorescence and other detection methods.The optimal expression conditions were determined as follows:induction time was 4 h with 100 pg/L of SppIP as the optimal induction concentration.Antibody-specific for the epitope was verified by ELISA experiments in serum,alve-olar lavage fluid and fecal dilutions of mice.In summary,a recombinant bacterial strain expressing the epitope antigen of the SARS-CoV-2 M protein peptide was constructed.The obtained protein can induce the body to produce humoral and mucosal immunity,which lays the foundation for the development of a vaccine candidate for the mucosal immunity of COVID-19.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Danhong injection on mitochondrial dynamics, morphology, and function in the rat model of chronic heart failure by mediating the adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) pathway. MethodsFrom 75 SD rats, 15 rats were randomly selected as the sham group, and the remaining 60 rats were used to prepare a rat model of chronic heart failure by abdominal aortic constriction (AAC). The modeled rats were randomly allocated into model, Danhong Injection (6 mL·kg-1), and captopril (8.8 mg·kg-1) groups and administrated with corresponding agents for 15 consecutive days. The levels of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), adenosine triphosphate (ATP), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and the activities of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes Ⅰ-Ⅳ were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The changes in cardiac function were detected by echocardiography. The ultrastructural changes of myocardial mitochondria were observed by transmission electron microscopy. Western blot was employed to assess the protein levels of AMPK, p-AMPK, Drp1, p-Drp1, optic atrophy 1 (Opa1), mitofusin (Mfn2), and fission l (Fis1) in the myocardial tissue. Real-time PCR was performed to determine the mRNA levels of Opa1, Mfn2, and Fis1, and immunohistochemistry to detect the expression of p-AMPK. ResultsCompared with the sham group, the model group showed elevated levels of NT-pro BNP, ADP, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β (P<0.01), declined ATP level (P<0.01), weakened activities of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes Ⅰ-Ⅳ (P<0.01), decreased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular fraction shortening (LVFS) (P<0.01), and increased left ventricular internal diameter at end-diastole (LVDd) and leaf ventricular internal diameter at end-systole (LVIDs) (P<0.01). Electron microscopy results showed that the model group presented heavily abnormal myocardial structure, with large areas of myofilament structure destroyed and dissolved, significantly enlarged residual structural gaps, and fragmented mitochondria. Western blot results showed that the model group demonstrated down-regulated protein levels of p-AMPK, Mfn2, and Opa1 (P<0.01) and up-regulated protein levels of p-Drp1 and Fis1 (P<0.01) in the myocardial tissue. Real-time PCR results showed that the model group presented up-regulated mRNA level of Fis1 (P<0.01) and down-regulated mRNA levels of Mfn2 and Opa1 (P<0.01). Immunohistochemistry results showed reduced expression of p-AMPK in the model group compared with sham group (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, Danhong injection lowered the levels of NT-pro BNP, ADP, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β (P<0.01), raised the level of ATP (P<0.01), increased the activities of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes Ⅰ-Ⅳ (P<0.05, P<0.01), increased the LVEF and LVFS (P<0.01), decreased the LVDd and LVIDs (P<0.05, P<0.01), alleviated mitochondrial damage, up-regulated the protein levels of p-AMPK, Mfn2, and Opa1 (P<0.05, P<0.01), down-regulated the protein levels of p-Drp1 and Fis1 (P<0.01), reduced the mRNA level of Fis1 (P<0.01), elevated the mRNA levels of Mfn2 and Opa1 (P<0.05, P<0.01), and promoted the expression of p-AMPK (P<0.05). ConclusionDanhong injection repairs the imbalance of mitochondrial dynamics, restores the mitochondrial function, improves the myocardial energy metabolism, and reduces the inflammatory response by regulating the AMPK/Drp1 pathway, thus improving the cardiac function.

The clinical practice guidelines of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) have problems such as limited clinical application and unclear implementation effects, which may be related to the lack of clinical practice evidence. To provide reliable and precise evidence for clinical practice, this article proposes a model of combining TCM guidelines with real-world study, which includes 4 steps. Firstly, during the implementation process of the guidelines, a high-quality research database is established. Secondly, the recommendations in the guidelines are evaluated based on the established database in multiple dimensions, including applicability, effectiveness, safety, and cost-effectiveness, and thus their effectiveness in practical applications can be determined. Thirdly, based on the established database, core prescriptions are identified, and the targeted populations and medication plans are determined. That is, the best treatment regimen is established based on the analysis of abundant clinical data regarding the effects of different medication frequencies, dosages, and duration on efficacy. Fourthly, the guidelines are updated according to the real-world evidence. The research based on this model can provide real-world evidence for ancient and empirical prescriptions, improving their application in clinical practice. Moreover, this model can reduce research costs and improve research efficiency. When applying this model, researchers need to pay attention to the quality of real-world evidence, ensuring that it can truly reflect the situation in clinical practice. In addition, importance should be attached to the clinical application of guideline recommendations, ensuring that doctors can conduct standardized diagnosis and treatment according to the guidelines. Finally, full-process participation of multidisciplinary experts is encouraged to ensure the comprehensiveness and scientificity of the study. In conclusion, the application of this model will contribute to the development of TCM guidelines responsive to the needs of clinical practice and achieve the goal of promoting the homogenization of TCM clinical diagnosis and treatment.
