This paper summarized Professor XU Jingfan's clinical experience of using Zisu （Perillafrutescens） for the treatment of spleen and stomach diseases. According to the disease characteristics， Professor XU flexibly selected the different parts of Zisu. It is believed that the leaf of Zisu is good at dispersing， dredging qi movement， and good at treating external contraction as well as internal damage due to depression or stagnation， and being effective in relieving abdominal lumps and fullness with vomiting； its stem is good at widering chest and diaphragm， smoothing qi and the middle， and dredging the twelve meridians， which can treat qi stagnation， especially suitable for distention and fullness in the midline of body like throat， esophagus， and stomach. Perilla seed is good at depressing qi and eliminating phlegm， loosening bowels to relieve constipation， which can be used in diseases of combined phlegm and qi， and combined treatment of lung and intestines to treat long-term constipation. In clinic， Huanglian （Coptis chinensis）- Zisu leaf is often used as pungent dispersing and bitter descending， promoting qi movement to treat persistent nausea and vomiting； Xiangfu （Cyperi Rhizoma）-Zisu stem is employed as regulating qi to smooth the middle， soothing qi to disperse liver stagnation for various syndromes of qi stagnation； Huomaren （Cannabis Fructus）-Zisu seed is utilized to clear the lungs and benefit qi， and moisten intestines by purgation for chronic constipation. The original ancient formulas are flexibly modified and tailored， so usually modified Banxia Houpo Decoction （半夏厚朴汤） is used to treat plum-stone qi （globus hystericus） and esophageal disorders， while modified Buzhong Yiqi Decoction （补中益气汤） combined with Xiangsu Powder （香苏散） is used to treat gastroptosis， then self-prescribed Jixing Tuxie Formula （急性吐泻方） is used for acute diarrhea， and Xiexie Waizhi Formula （泄泻外治方） is applied for chronic cold-dampness diarrhea.

Objective To systematically summarize the published literature on the genetic variants associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD). Methods Literature from Web of Science,PubMed,and Embase between January 1980 and September 2022 was systematically searched.Meta-analyses of the genetic variants were conducted using at least five data sources.The epidemiologic credibility of the significant associations was graded using the Venice criteria. Results Based on literature screening,399 eligible studies were included,comprising 381 candidate gene association,16 genome-wide association,and 2 whole-exome sequencing studies.We identified 465 genetic variants in 173 genes in candidate gene association studies,and 25 genetic variants in 17 genes were included in the meta-analysis.The meta-analysis identified 11 variants in 10 genes that were significantly associated with NAFLD,with cumulative epidemiological evidence of an association graded as strong for two variants in two genes(HFE,TNF),moderate for four variants in three genes(TM6SF2,GCKR,and ADIPOQ),and weak for five variants in five genes(MBOAT7,PEMT,PNPLA3,LEPR,and MTHFR). Conclusion This study identified six variants in five genes that had moderate to strong evidence of an association with NAFLD,which may help understand the genetic architecture of NAFLD risk.

OBJECTIVES: The increasing costs of hospital delivery have increased the economic burden of pregnant women, and the mode of delivery is the main factor affecting the costs of hospital delivery. This study aims to explore the difference in costs between cesarean section and natural delivery, and to provide reference for controlling the increase of hospital delivery costs. METHODS: The data of inpatient delivery in the Hunan Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from January 2016 to December 2020 were selected to compare the total inpatient costs and average daily costs of cesarean section and natural delivery. The linear trend model was used to analyze the trend change of inpatient delivery costs and the generalized linear model was used to analyze the influential factors for inpatient delivery costs. RESULTS: The average hospitalization costs of cesarean section (10 447.25 yuan) were higher than that of natural delivery (5 567.95 yuan), and the average daily costs of cesarean section (1 902.57 yuan) were higher than those of natural delivery (1 666.40 yuan). There was no significant increase or decrease in trend for cesarean section, while the average annual growth rate of the costs of natural delivery was 11.79%. The main factors affecting the hospitalization costs of cesarean section and natural delivery included age, occupation, medical insurance, route of admission, length of stay, premature delivery and complications (all P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The total hospitalization costs and average daily costs of cesarean section are higher than those of natural delivery, but the costs of natural delivery show a faster growth trend, and the hospitalization costs of cesarean section and natural delivery should be controlled by targeted measures.
