Objective To analyze the monosaccharide composition and the relative content of different alcohol precipitations of Panax japonicus polysaccharides.Methods The four components of Panax japonicus polysaccharides were isolated by stepwise ethanol precipitation method.The four components of Panax japonicus polysaccharides were hydrolyzed with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and derivated by l-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolo (PMP),respectively.The monosaccharide composition and relative content were analyzed using LC-FT-ICR-MS and HPLC-UV method.Results The four components of Panax japonicus polysaccharides consisted of glucose,rhamnose,galacturonic acid,galactose,arabinose,and glucose was the main monosaccharide.With the increase of ethanol concentration,the relative content of Ara increased gradually,as while the GalA decreased.Conclusions Precolumn derivation HPLC method was successfully applied for the determination of the monosaccharides in Panax japonicus polysaccharides,and there were differences in the four ethanol precipitations of Panax japonicus polysaccharides.The study can provide a basis for the separation of Panax japonicus polysaccharides.

ObjectiveTo explore the influencing factors of occupational hand-arm vibration disease (OHAVD) caused by handheld workpiece polishing. Methods A total of 222 OHAVD patients (case group), 275 hand-transmitted vibration-exposed workers (exposed group) and 243 healthy workers without hand-transmitted vibration exposure (control group) in a sports equipment manufacturing enterprise were selected as the study subjects using the convenience sampling method. Worksite survey of occupational health was conducted on these three groups, and the human vibration measurement equipment was used to measure the vibration exposure level of handheld vibration among the study subjects. The 8-hour energy equivalent frequency-weighted vibrating acceleration ［A(8)］ and cumulative vibration exposure level (CVEL) were calculated. Results The prevalence of coldness, numbness, tingling fingers, and vibration-induced white finger was higher in the exposed group and the case group compared with the control group (all P<0.05). The prevalence of the above-mentioned hand symptoms was higher in the case group compared with the exposed group (all P<0.05). The A(8) and CVEL levels of the study subjects in the case group were higher than those in the exposed group (all P<0.05). Binary logistic analysis result showed that age and CVEL were both influencing factors of OHAVD (all P<0.05). According to the restricted cubic spline models, CVEL of the study subjects in the exposed group had a positive nonlinear dose-response relationship with the risk of OHAVD (overall trend P<0.01, nonlinear P<0.01), indicating an increasing risk of OHAVD with increasing CVEL. Conclusion Hand-transmitted vibration exposure is a risk factor for OHAVD. Early intervention should be carried out for hand-transmitted vibration-exposed individuals to reduce vibration-exposed levels and control vibration exposure time.

Optical coherence tomography-based angiography (OCTA) is a novel non-invasive technique for quantitatively evaluating retinal microvascular perfusion. Due to the similar embryonic origin, anatomical characteristics, and physiological characteristics of the retina and cerebral small vessels, changes in retinal microvasculature may provide a new perspective for studying the mechanisms of cerebral small vessel diseases. This article summarizes the application of OCTA in cerebrovascular diseases, aiming to evaluate whether OCTA can become an effective tool for early prediction of the occurrence of cerebrovascular disease and monitoring disease changes.

Objective:To explore the perinatal management of patients with WD during pregnancy, and to determine its genetic etiology and the possibility of fetal morbidity using the genetic detection of amniotic fluid and umbilical cord blood.Method:In terms of fine management during the perinatal period, a case of K-F ring was found in the Ophthalmology Department of Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University in March 2019 due to eye astringency and eye swelling, and the hepatology department further diagnosed WD for one artificial abortion. After the second pregnancy in October 2020, multidisciplinary consultation and standardized treatment during pregnancy including gynecology and obstetrics, liver disease center, anesthesiology department, gastroenterology department and nutrition department were carried out. The genomes of patients' venous blood, amniotic fluid and umbilical cord blood were extracted and analyzed for ATP7B gene variation by Sanger sequencing.Result:Through multi-disciplinary collaborative management, the patient gave birth successfully in the case of pregnancy complicated with liver cirrhosis, portal hypertension, splenomegaly with hyperfunction, thrombocytopenia, anemia, esophageal and gastric varices and other complications. The phenotype of the newborn was normal, and the Apgar score was 10-10-10. Sequencing results showed that the patient had ATP7B p.Arg778Leu and p.Val890Met, which were missense heterozygous variants reported in the mutation database, and ACMG was classified as pathogenic variants. The results of amniotic fluid and umbilical cord blood showed that the fetus had only p.Arg778Leu single heterozygous variation, and it was predicted that there would be no clinical phenotype of WD.Conclusion:Perinatal multidisciplinary collaborative management has important protective significance for the successful pregnancy of patients with WD. Genetic screening of amniotic fluid and umbilical cord blood is conducive to early detection of fetal WD.

Objective To analyze the efficacy and adverse reactions of donepezil in the treatment of patients with a continuous disease spectrum of Alzheimer's disease(AD)with pharmacogenomics.Methods Seventy-two patients who took donepezil therapy at the time of initial molecular pa-thology diagnosis of AD continuous disease spectrum in Chinese PLA General Hospital from Jan-uary 2022 to January 2023 were recruited.Cells from the oral buccal mucosa were collected,and MassARRAY nucleic acid mass spectrometry was applied to detect the genotypes of CYP2D6,the gene encoding cytochrome P450 2D6 enzyme,and CHAT,the gene encoding acetylcholine trans-ferase.After 9 months of follow-up,drug efficacy was indirectly determined by neurological func-tion scales,caregiver evaluations,and drug prescribing behaviors,and thus,the 50 patients on donepezil alone were divide into effective group(n=28)and ineffective group(n=22).Seventy-two patients were divided into adverse reaction group(n=12)and no adverse reaction group(n=60).Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between donepezil efficacy and pharmacogenomics.Results The frequencies of CHAT rs3793790 locus carrying G allele and rs2177370 locus carrying A allele were significantly higher in the effective group than the ineffective group(35.71％vs 9.09％,P=0.029;42.86％vs 9.09％,P=0.008).Multivariate lo-gistic regression analysis showed that donepezil was more effective in those who carrying rs3793790 G allele and/or rs2177370 A allele in the CHAT gene than those who carrying neither of the alleles(95％CI:1.20-34.47,P=0.030).There were no statistical differences in the CYP2D6 gene-adjusted activity score and whether or not carrying*10 between the patients with and without adverse reactions(P＞0.0 5).Conclusion In patients with a continuous spectrum of AD,donepezil efficacy is associated with CHAT gene polymorphisms,but there is no correlation between donepezil adverse reactions and CYP2D6 genotype.

Objective To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of diabetes and prediabetes in Jingyuan County in Ningxia. Methods A cross-sectional survey including 10 639 participants (18-88 years of age) with a multistage sampling was conducted in Jingyuan County between January, 2014 and April, 2015. Questionnaires, physical examinations, and laboratory tests were included in the survey. Results Among all the subjects, 10 491 participants (men: 4 826, women: 5 665) with complete data were included in the analysis. The standardized prevalence of diabetes and prediabetes was 4.2% (men: 3.9%, women: 4.5%) and 8.8% (men: 7.6%, women 10.3%), respectively, in which the standardized prevalence of diabetes was higher in Hui (4.5%) than that in Han (3.5%) (P<0.05). Logistic regression analyses showed that age, family history of diabetes, overweight/obesity, hypertriglyceridemia and hypertension were positively associated with prediabetes and diabetes with the odds ratios being 1.60 and 2.14 (age, P<0.001), 1.40 and 3.32 (family history, P< 0.05), 1.47 and 1.57 (overweight/obesity, P< 0.001), 1.88 and 2.55 (hypertriglyceridemia, P<0.001), 1.44 and 1.89 (hypertension, P<0.001), respectively. Conclusions The prevalence of diabetes was relatively low in the rural area in Ningxia. However, it is still essential to take active interventions in people at high risk of diabetes in order to prevent the incident diabetes.

In this paper the adverse reactions of acupoint embedding and its treatment are summarized, including fever, infection, callosity, blood stasis, red swelling, numb swelling, pain, fester, ulcer, etc. It is consi-dered that adverse reactions are induced by the inappropriate operation, special constitution and embedding material. Thus we need to pay attention to standard manipulation, the contraindication, and cautious usage. Symptomatic treatment needs to be implemented timely once adverse reactions occur.
