Objective:
To learn the status and influencing factors of the purchase of supplementary insurance for adverse events following immunization ( AEFI ) by parents in Changsha, so as to provide basis for the development of compensatory strategies.
Methods:
Stratified random sampling method was used to select the parents who lived in Changsha for more than six months and had children under seven years old as subjects. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect the information about demographic features, awareness of AEFI and the purchase of supplementary insurance. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for purchasing supplementary insurance.
Results:
Among 712 respondents ( response rate, 94.93% ) , 354 ( 49.72% ) purchased supplementary insurance. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the parents aged 36-71 years ( OR=0.325, 95%CI: 0.144-0.732 ) were less likely to purchase supplementary insurance; the parents who were aware of supplementary insurance ( OR=3.622, 95%CI: 2.218-5.913 ) and compensation range ( OR=1.332, 95%CI: 1.164-1.524 ) , and who scored higher in the knowledge and attitude of AEFI ( OR=1.137, 95%CI: 1.049-1.231 ) were more likely to purchase supplementary insurance.
Conclusion
About 49.72% of the parents purchased of supplementary insurance. Age, awareness of supplementary insurance and compensation range,as well as knowledge and attitude of AEFI were associated with the purchase of supplementary insurance.

Scientific performance-based salary system is of great significance for hospitals to implement effective internal management, improve the enthusiasm of medical staff, and promote the high-quality development of public hospitals. Based on the requirements of the national salary system reform, a tertiary general hospital has been designing and implementing a performance-based salary system since 2016. The hospital has established a job evaluation index system to stratify various job sequences in the hospital, and determined the job value coefficients for different sequences and levels. It has also established a performance salary project system that covered job performance salary, specific performance salary, and innovative performance salary. In addition, the hospital has established a performance-based salary management system that covered salary standard formulation, performance salary accounting and distribution, and dynamic adjustment of the performance-based salary management system. The application of this performance-based compensation management system has achieved the matching of employee value, job hierarchy, and medical services. From 2016 to 2020, employees′ overall satisfaction with performance-based salary exceeded 85%. At the same time, the system could enhance the operational efficiency and quality of the hospital, drive technological development and scientific research innovation, playing a positive incentive role in the high-quality development of the hospital.

Objective:To observe the effects of Banxia Shumi Decoction on 5-HT 1AR, 5-HT 2AR, 5-HT, and 5-HIAA of chronic insomnia (CI) rats with internal obstruction of phlegm-damp (IOPD) type, to investigate the mechanisms of Banxia Shumi Decoction on resolving and draining dampness, guiding yang into yin and tranquilizing mind. Methods:A total of 48 Wistar rats were divided into control group, model group, Banxia Shumi Decoction low-dosage group, medium-dosage group, high-dosage group, and diazepam group according to random number table method, with 8 rats in each group. Except the control group, the CI with IOPD rats model were prepared by the method of "high-fat diet + single-platform water environment" in other groups. The rats in the Banxia Shumi Decoction low-, medium-, high-dosage group were treated with Banxia Shumi Decoction by gavage at the dose of 4.69, 9.38 and 18.75 g/kg respectively, the rats in the diazepam group were given 0.52 mg/kg diazepam aqueous solution by gavage, and the rats in the control group and model group were given the equal volume normal saline, once a day for consecutive 2 weeks. The mRNA expressions of 5-HT 1AR, 5-HT 2AR in rat brain stem were detected by qPCR, the protein expressions of 5-HT 1AR, 5-HT 2AR in rat brain raphe nucleus were detected by Western blot, and the contents of 5-HT and 5-HIAA in rat brain stem were determined by HPLC-MS. Results:Compared with model group, the expression of 5-HT 1AR mRNA significantly increased in the Banxia Shumi Decoction low-, medium-, high-dosage group, and diazepam group ( P<0.01); the expression of 5-HT 2AR mRNA significantly decreased in the Banxia Shumi Decoction high-dosage group and diazepam group ( P<0.05), and the expression of 5-HT 1AR and 5-HT 2AR significantly increased in the Banxia Shumi Decoction high-dosage group and diazepam group ( P<0.05 or P<0.01); 5-HT content significantly increased in the Banxia Shumi Decoction medium-, high-dosage group and diazepam group ( P<0.05 or P<0.01); 5-HIAA content significantly increased in the Banxia Shumi Decoction low-, medium-, high-dosage group, and diazepam group ( P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion:Banxia Shumi Decoction may intervene CI with IOPD type and perform the actions of resolving and draining dampness, guiding yang into yin and tranquilizing mind by regulating the expressions of 5-HT 1AR, 5-HT 2AR, 5-HT and 5-HIAA.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Banxia Xiexintang (BXT) on the proliferation of human gastric cancer HGC-27, MKN-45, and AGS cells and its mechanism. MethodCell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) was used to detect the effects of different concentrations of BXT-containing serum (5%, 10%, and 20%) on the proliferation of HGC-27, MKN-45, and AGS cells. A mitochondrial membrane potential probe (TMRE) was used to detect the expression of mitochondrial membrane potential in cells. A kit was used to detect iron ion (Fe2+) content, lipid peroxide (LPO), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of glycogen synthase3β (GSK3β), phosphorylated GSK3β (p-GSK3β), nuclear factor E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2), and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). The real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression of member 11 of the cystine/glutamic acid reverse transporter solute vector family 7 (SLC7A11), member 2 of the heavy chain solute vector family 3 (SLC3A2), transferrin receptor 3 (TFRC), and tumor protein (TP)53. ResultCCK-8 results showed that BXT and capecitabine could significantly reduce the survival rate of three kinds of gastric cancer cells after treatment with drug-containing serum for 24 h (P<0.01). After 48 h of intervention with drug-containing serum, the survival rate of three kinds of gastric cancer cells was significantly decreased in both the capecitabine group and the BXT group compared with the blank group. The BXT group was dose-dependent, with 20% BXT having the most significant effect (P<0.01). In terms of biochemical indicators of ferroptosis, compared with the blank group, BXT and capecitabine significantly decreased the expression of mitochondrial membrane potential (P<0.01) and SOD activity (P<0.01) and significantly increased the contents of LPO and Fe2+ (P<0.01), so as to improve the sensitivity of gastric cancer cells to ferroptosis. In terms of the Nrf2/GPX4 pathway, compared with the blank group, the BXT group could reduce the protein expressions of p-GSK3β, Nrf2, and GPX4 (P<0.01) in gastric cancer cells and increase mRNA expressions of SLC7A11 and SLC3A2 (P<0.05). It could also increase the protein expression of GSK3β (P<0.01) and mRNA expression of TP53 and TFRC (P<0.05, P<0.01) in gastric cancer cells. Inhibition of the Nrf2/GPX4 pathway induces ferroptosis in gastric cancer cells. Compared with the capecitabine group, the 20% BXT group showed a more obvious effect. ConclusionBanxia Xiexintang can induce ferroptosis in gastric cancer cells HGC-27, MKN-45, and AGS by inhibiting the Nrf2/GPX4 pathway.
