Objective To observe the effect of "Jingu Tongxiao Wan" on blood stasis and cold coagulation type gonarthrosis.Methods 160 patients with blood stasis and cold coagulation type gonarthrosis were divided into the "Jingu Tongxiao Wan" group(group A)with 120 cases(treated with "Jingu Tongxiao Wan" 6 g/time,2 times/d)and "Guci Pian" group(group B)with 40 cases(treated with "Guci Pian" 3 tablets/time,3 times/d).Indexes of effect and safe were observed after one month.Results 23 cases were healed,63 cases were excellent,9 cases were utilitied,9 cases were invalid,total effective rate was 93.8% in the group A.While,in the group B,7 cases were healed,21 cases were excellent,9 cases were utilitied,3 cases were invalid,total effective rate was 92.5%.There was no significant difference between two groups(P>0.05).Scores of sings and symptoms before and after treatment were 8.98±2.24 and 2.15±1.71 respectively in the group A,and 8.29±2.35 and 2.25±1.25 respectively in the group B.The scores after treatment were significantly different from that before treatment in each group(P<0.01),and no significant difference between scores of the group A and group B after treatment(P>0.05).Conclusion The treatment of "Jingu Tongxiao Wan" shows an obvious effect and safe on blood stasis and cold coagulation type gonarthrosis.

Objective:To assess the influence of extreme temperature events on the mortality risk of nervous system diseases in residents of Jiangsu Province and identify patients with nervous system diseases who are susceptible to extreme temperature events.Methods:Acase-crossover design was used to investigate the cumulative lagged effects of extreme temperature events on the mortality risk of nervous system disease in local residents by using the data on causes of death from nervous system diseases in Jiangsu from 2014 to 2020 with conditional logistic regression model. The final definition of extreme temperature events was established using Akaike information criterion. The heat wave was defined as 4 or more consecutive days with daily mean temperatures above the 92.5 th percentile of annual daily mean temperatures, and the cold spell was defined as 2 or more consecutive days with daily mean temperatures below the 10 th percentile of annual daily mean temperatures. Furthermore, stratified analyses was conducted to compare the effects of extreme temperature events on mortality risk in populations in different gender, age and marital status groups to identify susceptible populations to extreme temperature event. Results:Statistical results showed that the effect values of heat wave and cold spell on the mortality risk of nervous system diseases all peaked at the 7 th day of the cumulative lag, with OR of 1.60 (95% CI: 1.44-1.76) and 1.33 (95% CI: 1.13-1.56), respectively. Heat wave exposure increased mortality risk for individuals with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, while cold spell exposure increased the mortality risk for those with Alzheimer's disease. Stratified analyses showed that the mortality risk for nervous system disease and Alzheimer's disease was higher in partnerless population after heat wave exposure. Conclusions:Heat wave and cold spell were associated with increased mortality risks for nervous system disease, highlighting the need for improved early warning systems for extreme temperature event. In the context of heat wave, interventions to protect individuals with nervous system disease should prioritize partnerless population.

To improve the effectiveness of bedside localization of nasointestinal tube(NIT)and facilitate the placement of nasointestinal tube into jejunum,we established a procedure and composed a teaching verse for bedside placement of nasointestinal tube based on relevant classical literature and our own practices.Verse content:enteral nutrition means a successful strategy to improve the outcome in critically ill patient management,never hesitate to place nasointestinal tubes when necessary.There are several methods to deal with it,but popularizing it remains a long way off.Half-sitting and swallowing into the esophagus,freely withdrawing signifies the stomach cavity.Passing through the pylorus using light tension on the tube in the right lateral decubitus position.Arriving at the jejunum with low resistance in the left lateral decubitus position.What are the signs of intragastric coiling?Tube return out of nose is the initial observation,Failure of air insufflation indicates tube coiling.Dyeing location surpasses imaging.Vacuum test is the most sensitive,Sequential change from acid to base is specific.Methylene blue test is dramatical for localization.Combining three methods is enough to navigate.Abdominal plain film is the goldan standard and can still be used in ultrasonic era.3-D image establishes overall view.CT reveals the tube route exactly.The teaching verse has become a powerful tool for clinical teaching of manual nasointestinal tube placement in a concise and easy-to-remember form.

ObjectiveTo investigate the possible mechanism of Hewei Anshen Formula （和胃安神方） in the treatment of insomnia. MethodsSixty male SD rats were randomly divided into the normal group， the model group， the eszopiclone group and the low-， medium- and high-dose Hewei Anshen Formula groups. The insomnia model was constructed by intraperitoneal injection of p-chlorophenylalanine （PCPA） for 2 days in all groups except the normal group. After successful modelling， the eszopiclone group was given 0.33 mg/（kg·d） eszopiclone aqueous solution by gavage， the low-， medium- and high-dose Hewei Anshen Formula groups were given 10 ml/kg of Hewei Anshen Formula with a concentration of 1， 2 and 4 g/ml， respectively， and the rats in the normal group and the model group were given 10 ml/kg of saline by gavage， once a day for 7 consecutive days. The general condition of the rats was observed during the experiment， and the body mass of the rats was measured every day after medication administration. The following day after the last medication administration， pentobarbital sodium co-test was used to observe the sleep condition， and the sleep latency and sleep duration were recorded； immunohistochemistry and Western blot were used to detect the expression of hypothalamic clock rhythm regulating protein （CLOCK） and brain and muscle aromatic hydrocarbon receptor nuclear transporter-like protein 1 （BMAL1） in the rats. ResultsThe body mass of rats in the model group was lower than that of rats in the normal group at all time points （P＜0.01）； compared with the same time in the eszopiclone group， the body mass of rats in the low-dose Hewei Anshen Formula group was elevated on the 5th， 6th and 7th days of medication administration （P＜0.05）. Compared with the normal group， the sleep duration of rats in the model group was shortened （P＜0.01）； compared with the model group， the sleep duration of rats in each dosage group increased （P＜0.01）， and the difference between the high-dose Hewei Anshen Formula group and the eszopiclone group showed no statistically significant （P＞0.05）， while the sleep duration of the low- and medium-dose Hewei Anshen Formula groups were shorterned than the eszopiclone group （P＜0.01）. The difference in sleep latency showed no statistically significant among each group （P＞0.05）. The results of both immunohistochemistry and Western blotting showed that the expression of CLOCK and BMAL1 in the hypothalamus of rats in the model group was significantly reduced compared with that in the normal group （P＜0.01）； the expression of CLOCK and BMAL1 in the hypothalamus of rats in the low- and high-dose Hewei Anshen Formula groups increased than that in the model group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionHewei Anshen Formula can improve insomnia in model rats， and its mechanism of action may be related to the up-regulation of the expression of the hypothalamic biological clock genes CLOCK and BMAL1 protein.
