Shengyutang is a famous classical formula of tonic， which is made from Siwutang with Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Astragali Radix. It is included in the Catalogue of Ancient Famous Classical Formulas（The First Batch）. Based on the Principles of Key Information Research of Ancient Famous Classical Formulas， this paper used bibliometrics to sort out and research the key information of Shengyutang in the aspects of history， composition， origin and processing， dosage， decocting method， efficacy and indications. After research， it has been found that this formula was first recorded in Lanshi Micang written by LI Dongyuan during the Jin dynasty， composed of Rehmanniae Radix， Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata， Chuanxiong Rhizoma， Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma， Astragali Radix and Angelicae Sinensis taproot. The name of the formula passed down through generations was relatively unified， with clear origins and veins. In later generations， this formula was the mainstream， and adjustments were made to the dosage and composition according to the indication. In the formula， Astragalus membranaceus var. mongholicus was selected as the origin of Astragali Radix， and the origins of other medicinal materials were consistent with the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Except for Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata， the other medicinal materials were made from raw products， and the dosage form was boiled powder. According to the measurement standard in the Jin dynasty， the recommended usage and dosage were 1.24 g of Rehmanniae Radix， Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata， Chuanxiong Rhizoma， Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma each， 2.07 g of Astragali Radix and Angelicae Sinensis taproot each， crushed into coarse particles that pass through the 4 mesh sieve but can't pass through the 10 mesh sieve， added 1 200 mL of water and boiled to 300 mL， and removed the residue. Shengyutang has the functions of tonifying Qi and blood， and blood intake， treating various sores， and restlessness and insomnia caused by excessive blood flow. In ancient times， this formula was widely used in the treatment of surgical sores， gynecological diseases， deficiency syndrome， etc. In modern clinical practice， it is mostly used to treat gynecological， neurological， musculoskeletal， hematological diseases caused by Qi and blood deficiency. In this paper， the key information of Shengyutang was researched by reviewing relevant ancient literature， in order to provide reference for the modern application and development of this formula.

Objective To compare the benefits and drawbacks of primary patch expansion versus pericardial tube right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection in patients diagnosed with pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect (PA/VSD). Methods A retrospective study was conducted on patients diagnosed with PA/VSD who underwent primary right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection surgery at our center between 2010 and 2020. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the type of right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection: a pericardial tube group and a patch expansion group. Clinical data and imaging findings were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 51 patients were included in the study, comprising 31 males and 20 females, with a median age of 12.57 (4.57, 49.67) months. The pericardial tube group included 19 patients with a median age of 17.17 (7.33, 49.67) months, while the patch expansion group consisted of 32 patients with a median age of 8.58 (3.57, 52.72) months. In both groups, the diameter of pulmonary artery, McGoon index, and Nakata index significantly increased after treatment (P<0.001). However, the pericardial tube group exhibited a longer extracorporeal circulation time (P<0.001). The reoperation rate was notably high, with 74.51% of patients requiring further surgical intervention, including 26 (81.25%) patients in the patch expansion group and 12 (63.16%) patients in the pericardial tube group. No statistical differences were observed in long-term cure rates or mortality between the two groups (P＞0.005). Conclusion In patients with PA/VSD, both patch expansion and pericardial tube right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection serve as effective initial palliative treatment strategies that promote pulmonary vessel development and provide a favorable foundation for subsequent radical operations. However, compared to the pericardial tube approach, the patch expansion technique is simpler to perform and preserves some intrinsic potential for pulmonary artery development, making it the preferred procedure.

Objective: To explore the association between mental health and muscle strength among Chinese adolescents aged 13- 18, providing a theoretical foundation and intervention strategies for mental health promotion. Methods: Data were obtained from the 2019 Chinese National Survey on Students Constitution and Health, including 98 631 Chinese adolescents aged 13- 18. Psychological distress was assessed by using the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10), and mental well being was measured with the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well being Scale (WEMWBS). Based on the gender and age specific Z scores of various test items [grip strength, standing long jump, pull ups (for males), and sit ups (for females)], muscle strength index (MSI) was constructed to evaluate the comprehensive level of muscle strength in adolescents. According to the Dual factor Model (DFM) of mental health, participants were categorized into four groups:troubled, symptomatic but content, vulnerable, and complete mental health. Gender differences were analyzed by using Chi-square tests, trends were tested with Cochran-Armitage tests, and multinomial Logistic regression models were applied to assess associations between muscle strength and mental health among adolescents. Results: In 2019, 37.4% of Chinese adolescents aged 13-18 were reported of high mental distress, and 59.9% were reported of low mental well being. Boys had significantly lower rates of high mental distress (35.3%) and low mental well being (55.6%) compared to girls (39.4%, 64.3%), and the differences were of statistical significance ( χ 2=176.13, 780.42, both P <0.05). In 2019, the rate of complete mental health among adolescents showed a downward trend with increasing age ( χ 2 trend = 258.47) and a gradual upward trend with increasing muscle strength levels ( χ 2 trend =123.14)，and both boys and girls exhibited similar trends ( χ 2 trend =103.83, 168.46; 57.00 , 67.34) (all P <0.05). The results of the unordered multiclass Logistic regression model showed that after controlling for confounding factors such as age and gender, when the completely pathological group as a reference, for every 1 unit increase in MSI in adolescents, the likelihood of being in a completely mental health state increased by 29% ( OR = 1.29); for every unit increase in the Z-score for pull ups, the likelihood of being in a completely mental health state increased by 6% ( OR =1.06) among boys; for every 1 unit increase in sit up Z score, the likelihood of being in a completely mental health state increased by 19% ( OR =1.19) among girls (all P <0.05). Conclusions The mental health status of Chinese adolescents is not good enough. Muscle strength is positively associated with mental health.

Objective To compare the efficacy of additional tricuspid valve annuloplasty (TVP) and isolated closure for atrial septal defect (ASD) with moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR). Methods Clinical data of the patients diagnosed with ASD combined with secondary moderate to severe TR and treated in our hospital from January 2009 to June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into a TVP group and a non-TVP group based on whether TVP was performed simultaneously. The baseline data of two groups were matched with a ratio of 1∶1 propensity score. Results A total of 32 pairs from 257 patients were successfully matched. In the TVP group, there were 24 females and 8 males with an average age of 44.0±13.1 years. In the non-TVP group, there were 28 females and 4 males with an average age of 44.5±11.6 years. The TR area and estimated pulmonary artery pressure in the two groups were significantly decreased compared with preoperation (all P<0.001). The TR area (P=0.001) and the estimated pulmonary artery pressure (P=0.002) were decreased more significantly in the TVP group than those in the non-TVP group. Linear regression analysis showed that age and preoperative TR area had a positive correlation with TR area at follow-up (β=0.045 and 0.259, respectively, both P<0.05), while additional TVP had a negative correlation (β=–1.542, P=0.001). Conclusion Additional TVP can significantly reduce the TR area and pulmonary artery pressure, and elderly patients with severe TR before surgery should actively receive TVP.

BACKGROUND:Calcaneal defects are common in clinical practice.It is difficult for surgeons to evaluate the effect of calcaneal reconstruction due to the complex anatomical structure and motor function of the heel.Finite element analysis has become an effective method for biomechanical behavior simulation and numerical analysis. OBJECTIVE:To compare the clinical effect and biomechanical characteristics of total calcaneal reconstruction with the Ⅱ-shaped and V-shaped fibular flap. METHODS:CT images of one left foot of a healthy 50-year-old male were acquired.Mimics software was used to obtain the preliminary three-dimensional model.Geomagic software was used to trim and curve the model.The model was imported into Solidworks software to simulate calcaneal reconstruction and complete the pre-processing of finite element calculation.Finally,Ansys software was used to solve the problem.The simulation results were compared with previous literature results to verify the effectiveness of the model.The surgical effect and biomechanical characteristics of the foot in different gait phases based on the simulated stress results were analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Both Ⅱ-shaped and V-shaped fibular flaps could be used to reconstruct completely missing calcaneus,which could restore the length,width and height of normal calcaneus,and fill up the missing calcaneus bone.(2)Compared with the normal calcaneus,both configurations of fibular flaps showed a tendency for over-concentration of stress after loading.The normal calcaneus stress was mostly concentrated around the calcaneus nodule,the subtalar process and the calcaneus groove,while the stress of the two fibular flaps was mostly concentrated at the junction between the bone flap with the talus and cuboid bones.(3)The maximum stress of calcaneus was different between the two models and normal calcaneus under different simulation conditions,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Compared with the V-shaped fibular flaps,Ⅱ-shaped fibular flaps had less force change in different gaits and were closer to the normal calcaneus.The V-shaped fibular flap bore excessive stress during the period of push-off,and the grafted bone material may yield under this condition and have the risk of fractures.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence of comorbidity of spinal curvature abnormality and malnutrition among primary and secondary school students aged 10-18 years in Tianjin in 2023, so as to provide scientific basis for the combined prevention of common diseases and multiple diseases among students and the construction of school health system. Methods: In September to October 2023, 31 884 primary and secondary school students aged 10 to 18 years in Tianjin were selected using stratified cluster random sampling. Abnormal spinal curvature in children and adolescents was assessed by Sereening of Spinal Curvature Abnormality of Children and Adolescents, while stunting, wasting, overweight, and obesity were determined according to the Screening for Malnutrition among Schoolage Children and Adolescents and Screening for Overweight and Obesity among Schoolage Children and Adolescents. The χ2 test was used to compare betweengroup differences in coprevalence, and multiple Logistic regression models were used to analyze the risk of different comorbidity types in different clusters. Results: The coprevalence of spinal curvature abnormality and malnutrition among primary and secondary school students in Tianjin was 1.6%, which was higher for girls than boys (1.8%, 1.4%), higher (2.5%) for senior high schools than for junior high schools and elementary schools (2.0%, 0.5%), and higher in rural than in urban areas (2.1%, 1.1%) (χ2=9.45, 141.92, 46.94, P<0.05). Multiple Logistic regression models showed that junior high school girls had a higher risk of incorrect posture comorbid with stunting and wasting (OR=4.52, 95%CI=1.84-11.06) and incorrect posture comorbid with overweight and obesity (OR=2.67, 95%CI=1.74-4.10) than boys, and that scoliosis/sagittal spinal abnormality comorbid with stunting and wasting (OR=0.10, 95%CI=0.02-0.44) risk was lower than that of boys, senior high school girls had a lower risk of scoliosis/sagittal spinal abnormality comorbid with overweight and obesity (OR=0.27, 95%CI=0.11-0.66) (P<0.05). Conclusions The coprevalence of spinal curvature abnormality and malnutrition is specific among primary and secondary school students in Tianjin, and the comorbidity type varies by gender and education stage. There is a need to increase prevention and control of spinal curvature abnormalities in school health working, intensive screening of key populations, and timely intervention.

Objective To analyze risk factors for pulmonary vein obstruction (PVO) after intracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) repair. Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical data of the patients with intracardiac TAPVC who underwent surgery at our center from April 2009 to April 2019 was conducted. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to assess the risk of postoperative PVO. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify relevant risk factor for postoperative PVO. Results We finally included 169 patients. The median age at surgery was 89.0 (41.5, 195.0) days, and the median weight at surgery was 4.8 (3.8, 6.0) kg. The preoperative PVO rate was 18.3% (31/169). Post-repair PVO occurred in 8.9% (15/169) of the patients. The atresia of common pulmonary and subtype of coronary sinus/right atrium did not significantly affect the risk of PVO (P=0.053, P=0.330). Relevant risk factors included preoperative PVO (P<0.001) and the ratio of left ventricular end-systolic diameter to right ventricular diameter (P=0.025). Conclusion Surgical repair of intracardiac TAPVC has achieved satisfactory results in our center, but the long-term risk of obstruction should not be underestimated. An increased ratio of left ventricular end-systolic diameter to right ventricular diameter and preoperative PVO are associated with post-repair PVO.

Objective:To investigate the association of exposure to PM 2.5 and its constituents during pregnancy and fetal growth and to further identify critical windows of exposure for fetal growth. Methods:We included 4 089 mother-child pairs from the Jiangsu Birth Cohort Study between January 2016 and October 2019. Data of general characteristics, clinical information, daily average PM 2.5 exposure, and its constituents during pregnancy were collected. Fetal growth parameters, including head circumference (HC), abdominal circumference (AC), and femur length (FL), were measured by ultrasound after 20 weeks of gestation, and then estimated fetal weight (EFW) was calculated. Generalized linear mixed models were adopted to examine the associations of prenatal exposure to PM 2.5 and its constituents with fetal growth. Distributed lag nonlinear models were used to identify critical exposure windows for each outcome. Results:A 10 μg/m 3 increase in PM 2.5 exposure during pregnancy was associated with a decrease of 0.025 ( β=-0.025, 95% CI: -0.048- -0.001) in HC Z-score, 0.026 ( β=-0.026, 95% CI: -0.049- -0.003) in AC Z-score, and 0.028 ( β=-0.028, 95% CI:-0.052--0.004) in EFW Z-score, along with an increased risk of 8.5% ( RR=1.085, 95% CI: 1.010-1.165) and 13.5% ( RR=1.135, 95% CI: 1.016-1.268) for undergrowth of HC and EFW, respectively. Regarding PM 2.5 constituents, prenatal exposure to black carbon, organic matter, nitrate, sulfate (SO 42-) and ammonium consistently correlated with decreased HC Z-score. SO 42- exposure was also associated with decreased FL Z-scores. In addition, we found that gestational weeks 2-5 were critical windows for HC, weeks 4-13 and 19-40 for AC, weeks 4-13 and 23-37 for FL, and weeks 4-12 and 20-40 for EFW. Conclusions:Our findings demonstrated that exposure to PM 2.5 and its constituents during pregnancy could adversely affect fetal growth and the critical windows for different fetal growth parameters are not completely consistent.

Craniovertebral junction malformation is a congenital malformation located in the foramen magnum and upper cervical spine, including bone and nerve malformation, resulting in motor and sensory disorders, cerebellar and lower cranial nerves, etc. The evaluation methods of clinical symptoms and efficacy of craniovertebral junction malformation are important for the surgical indications and effects, mainly including the evaluation of clinical symptoms and the quality of life. At present, the commonly used methods in clinical work and literature are the Japanese orthopaedic association scores, visual analogue scales, 36-item short-form health survey, etc. Most of these clinical evaluations are not aimed at craniovertebral junction diseases but focus on the description of a certain type of clinical symptoms. Chicago Chiari outcome scale and syringomyelia outcome scale of Xuanwu hospital are dedicated to Craniovertebral junction malformation, but more clinical studies are needed to prove their effectiveness. Based on the literature reports, this article reviewed the previous clinical evaluation methods of craniovertebral junction malformation and discusses their applications and limitations.

Objective:To construct a signature for identifying active tuberculosis (TB) based on the relative expression orderings (REOs) of gene expression within a single sample.Methods:Using peripheral whole blood samples from 75 active TB and 69 latently infected individuals from four datasets as the training set, and highly stable REO patterns were extracted from the gene expression profile of the two groups of samples. Then, the gene pairs that reversed the REO pattern between the two groups were selected, and each gene pair was ranked in descending order based on their reversal degree. Finally, the top k gene pairs with the highest classification accuracy were selected as the signature for independent dataset validation. Results:A signature composed of seven gene pairs, denoted as 7-GPS, was constructed from the training set. The accuracy rate for 7-GPS to distinguish active TB from latently infected samples was 88.89%, and the accuracy rate for distinguishing active TB from normal samples was 90.09%. In the mixed validation data from different detection platforms, the AUC value for distinguishing active TB from latently infected samples was 0.914 (95% CI: 0.881-0.948), and the AUC value for distinguishing active TB from normal samples was 0.934 (95% CI: 0.904-0.964). In addition, the four genes ETV7, BATF2, ANKRD22 and CARD17P from this signature tended to be highly expressed in peripheral blood samples of active TB, and their expression values were significantly related to the duration of anti-tuberculosis treatment in clinical. Conclusion:The 7-GPS signature is robust and suitable for individualized analysis of a single peripheral blood sample. It has certain clinical application potential.
