4.Relationship between narcissism and entrepreneurial intention in college students
Chinese Mental Health Journal 2017;31(2):156-161
Objective:To investigate the relationship between narcissism and entrepreneurial intention and roles of achievement motive and risk aversion in college students.Methods:In this study,375 college students were selected from Henan University.Their narcissism,entrepreneurial intention,achievement motive and risk aversion were assessed with the Narcissism Scale,Entrepreneurial Intentions,The Achievement Motive Scale,and General Risk Aversion Scale.Results:The scores of overt narcissism positively predicted the scores of entrepreneurial intention (3 =0.37,P < 0.001),the predictive effect of covert narcissism on entrepreneurial intention was not significant (β =-0.05,P > 0.05).The scores of achievement motive partly mediated the relationship between the scores of overt narcissism and entrepreneurial intention (95% CI:0.06-0.22),and this mediation effect was moderated by the scores of risk aversion (β =0.09,P < 0.05).Only when the score of risk aversion was higher (above one standard deviation),achievement motive was a mediator between narcissism and entrepreneurial intention.When the score of risk aversion was lower,the mediate effect was not valid.Therefore,the moderated mediation model was confirmed.Conclusion:It suggest that the moderated mediation model is feasible,that is,achievement motive is a mediator between narcissism and entrepreneurial intention,but this mediation is moderated by risk aversion.

Among them, the morbility of arrhythmia in patients with cerebral hemorrhage was higher than that of cerebral infarction ( P
6.Advances in study of glucocorticoid receptor induced insulin resistance and its antagonists
Chinese Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics 2000;0(02):-
Glucocorticoids are among those most important hormones that maintain the energy metabolic homeostasis within body.The actions of glucocorticoids on target tissues,such as liver and adipose tissue,are not only dependent on circulating glucocorticoid levels but also on glucocorticoid receptor expression.The elevated level of circulating glucocorticoid caused by exogenous or endogenous reasons may contribute to insulin resistance and the other metabolic syndrome such as dyslipidemia,visceral obesity and hypertension.This review summarizes recent advances in the study of glucocorticoid receptor-mediated insulin resistance and its antagonists.
7.Therapy for moderate and advanced liver carcinoma
Journal of International Oncology 2012;39(8):612-615
Due to the latent and highly invasive characteristics of liver carcinoma,a majority of patients are frequently not diagnosed until moderate or advanced stage in the disease process,and usually complicate with cirrhosis.Only 15% -30% of the patients are eligible for radical resection.The overall survival time is about 3-4 months.Therefore,on the basis of early diagnosis and treatment of liver carcinoma,how to improve the treatment effect of the moderate and advanced liver carcinoma,ameliorate the quality of life and prolong the survival time,becomes the focuses and difficulties both at home and abroad.

[Objective] :
To predict the potential targets of Qingfu Juanbi Decoction (青附蠲痹汤, QFJBD) in treating rheumatoid arthritis (RA) using an improved Transformer model and investigate the network pharmacological mechanisms underlying QFJBD’s therapeutic effects on RA.
Methods:
First, a traditional Chinese medicine herb-target interaction (TCMHTI) model was constructed to predict herb-target interactions based on Transformer improvement. The performance of the TCMHTI model was evaluated against baseline models using three metrics: area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), precision-recall curve (PRC), and accuracy. Subsequently, a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was built based on the predicted targets, with core targets identified as the top nine nodes ranked by degree values. Gene Ontology (GO) functional and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were performed using the targets predicted by TCMHTI and the targets identified through network pharmacology method for comparison. Then, the results were compared. Finally, the core targets predicted by TCMHTI were validated through molecular docking and literature review.
Results:
The TCMHTI model achieved an AUC of 0.883, PRC of 0.849, and accuracy of 0.818, predicting 49 potential targets for QFJBD in RA treatment. Nine core targets were identified: tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17A, cluster of differentiation 40 (CD40), cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA4), IL-4, and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). The enrichment analysis demonstrated that the TCMHTI model predicted 49 targets and enriched more pathways directly associated with RA, whereas classical network pharmacology identified 64 targets but enriched pathways showing weaker relevance to RA. Molecular docking demonstrated that the active molecules in QFJBD exhibit favorable binding energy with RA targets, while literature research further revealed that QFJBD can treat RA through 9 core targets.
Conclusion
The TCMHTI model demonstrated greater accuracy than traditional network pharmacology methods, suggesting QFJBD exerts therapeutic effects on RA by regulating targets like TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, as well as multiple signaling pathways. This study provides a novel framework for bridging traditional herbal knowledge with precision medicine, offering actionable insights for developing targeted TCM therapies against diseases.

Magnetic induction method aims at the noninvasive detection of liver iron overload by measuring the hepatic magnetic susceptibility. To solve the difficulty that eddy current effects interfere with the measurement of magnetic susceptibility, we proposed an improved coil system based on the static field magnetization principle in this study. We used a direct current excitation to eliminate the eddy current effect, and a rotary receiver coil to get the induced voltage. The magnetic field for a cylindrical object due to the magnetization effect was calculated and the relative change of maximum induced voltage was derived. The correlation between magnetic susceptibility of object and maximum magnetic flux, maximum induced voltage and relative change of maximum induced voltage of the receiver coil were obtained by simulation experiments, and the results were compared with those of the theory calculation. The contrast shows that the simulation results fit the theory results well, which proves our method can eliminate the eddy current effect effectively.
