Background Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), especially herbal medicine, has been widely used in China and now is also being increasingly used in other countries for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Although many studies have demonstrated that certain Chinese herbal products are effective and safe for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, most of these lack sufficient quality. Therefore, large randomized clinical trials and further scientific research to determine its safety, effectiveness are necessary.QiShen YiQi Dripping Pills (QSYQDP) is a herbal preparation clinically used in the treatment and prevention of coronary artery disease. Preliminary observations have shown its safety and effectiveness. Methods/Design This randomized, controlled trial will recruit 3600 patients with a history of myocardial infarction. Patients will be randomized into two groups by a Centr-Randomized System. One group receives QSYQDP, the other group receive aspirin. This trial protocol will describe eligibility criteria, detailed information on the treatment definition, blinding, endpoints, statistical methods, sample size determination, data management, legal aspects, and the current status of the trial. Discussion This trial is one of the first randomized, controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of traditional Chinese herbal medicine in the treatment and secondary prevention of coronary artery disease. The results of this study should help to define the role of TCM in modern medical care, as well as to provide the management strategy for CAD patients in China and other countries.

Objective To evaluate the effect of epidural labor analgesia with different concentra-tions of ropivacaine combined with sufentanil on fever. Methods A total of 104 healthy parturients, of A-merican Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, with New York Heart Association gradeⅠ orⅡ, with body height 150-175 cm, weighing 50-90 kg, at 37-45 weeks of gestation, scheduled for elec-tive labor analgesia, were divided into 0. 075％ ropivacaine group ( group R1, n=51) and 0. 125％ ropiva-caine group ( group R2, n=53) by a random number table method. Epidural labor analgesia was performed with 0. 075％ ropivacaine plus 0. 25μg∕ml sufentanil and with 0. 125％ ropivacaine plus 0. 25μg∕ml sufen-tanil in group R1 and group R2, respectively, to maintain visual analog scale score<3. Body temperature was measured before analgesia ( T0 ) , at 30 min, 1, 3 and 5 h of analgesia ( T1-4 ) , immediately after de-livery and at 2 h after delivery ( T5,6 ) . Venous blood samples were collected at T0,3,5 to detect the concen-tration of interleukin-6 ( IL-6) in serum. The incidence of fever, plane of anesthesia, fluid infusion rate, consumption of sufentanil and ropivacaine, the number of increment of drugs and length of labor were recor-ded. Results Compared with group R1, the degree of increase in body temperature was significantly in-creased at T1-6 , the consumption of ropivacaine and concentration of IL-6 at T3 were increased in group R2 (P<0. 05). There was no significant difference in the rate of fever, plane of anesthesia, fluid infusion rate, consumption of sufentanil and ropivacaine, the number of increment of drugs or length of labor be-tween two groups ( P>0. 05) . Conclusion Epidural labor analgesia with different concentrations of ropiva-caine combined with sufentanil exerts no effect on fever, 0. 075％ ropivacaine induces less changes in body temperature of parturients than 0. 125％ ropivacaine, which is related to the lower concentration of IL-6.

OBJECTIVE: To survey the residents for their understanding of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) in two hard hit provinces of China to facilitate the governmental decisions on strategies against the disease. METHODS: We invited the participants from Hubei and Henan Provinces of China for an internetbased survey starting from 12:00 on February 21, 2020 to 12:00 on February 23. The survey included the general conditions, KAP of COVID-19, psychological status and living conditions of the residents. RESULTS: The effective response rate of the questionnaire was 98.9%. The mean (P25, P75) age of the participants was 19 (16, 40) years, and 54.3% of them were students. Social media were the most important source of information concerning the pandemic of the respondents. The respondents had a high awareness of person-to-person transmission of the virus through the respiratory tract or droplets but showed a relatively low level of awareness of the population susceptible to COVID-19 and its specific symptoms. The results of multivariate analysis showed that women, undergraduate students (including college students) and higher degree holders had better knowledge of COVID-19 ( < 0.05); the proportion of respondents who expressed to have different levels of psychological stressed such as worry, anxiety and panic reached 77.2%; 16.7% of the responders considered psychological interventions necessary for their psychological conditions; 63.6% of the respondents confessed a bias against the people returning from Hubei and Henan provinces, while 22.4% worried that they might be biased because of their residence in Hubei and Henan. The rate of personal protective equipment shortage was as high as 69.4%; the rates of the responders who would "covering the mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing", "properly use masks in accordance with regulations", "maintain proper hand hygiene ", "avoid gatherings with relatives and friends" and "refrain from going to public places" were 92.4%, 95.9%, 93.5%, 88.8% and 93.1%, respectively. Women and groups with good knowledge of the disease reported better protective behaviors against the diseases ( < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The residents in Hubei and Henan Provinces have generally good KAP related to COVID-19, and the online platforms plays a positive role to in circulating epidemic-related information. It is essential to further increase the supply of the protective materials and pay more attention to the mental health of the residents during the pandemic, and psychological counseling and psychological protection should be provided if necessary.
