OBJECTIVE To establish a quality control method for Jinbei oral liquid based on multi-wavelength switching high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） fingerprint， chemical pattern recognition and multi-index content determination. METHODS A total of 15 batches of Jinbei oral liquid were used as test samples. The Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine （ Version 2012 ） was adopted to establish multi-wavelength switching HPLC fingerprints， followed by chromatographic peak identification and similarity evaluation. Cluster analysis， principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis were applied to conduct chemical pattern recognition on the 15 batches of samples. The multi-wavelength switching HPLC method was used to simultaneously determine the contents of neochlorogenic acid， chlorogenic acid， cryptochlorogenic acid， forsythoside A， baicalin， salvianoli c acid B and wogonoside in samples. RESULTS A total of 25 common peaks were calibrated in the fingerprints of 15 batches of Jinbei oral liquid， among which 7 common peaks were unambiguously identified. The similarity of all samples was higher than 0.960. Chemical pattern recognition results showed that samples S1-S8 were clustered into group 1， and samples S9-S15 were clustered into group 2. Baicalin， wogonoside， neochlorogenic acid， chlorogenic acid and salvianolic acid B were identified as the differential quality markers. The average contents of neochlorogenic acid， chlorogenic acid， cryptochlorogenic acid， forsythoside A， baicalin， salvianolic acid B and wogonoside in 15 batches of Jinbei oral liquid were 0.213 7， 0.085 3， 0.104 9， 0.287 3， 0.420 1， 0.062 1， 0.176 0 mg/mL， respectively. CONCLUSIONS The established quality control method for Jinbei oral liquid combining multi-wavelength switching HPLC fingerprint， chemical pattern recognition and multi-index content determination is stable and reliable， which can provide a reference for the formulation of quality standards of this preparation.

Objective:To explore the association of blood and urinary cadmium levels with lipid profile levels and dyslipidemia in Chinese adults aged 18 to 79 years.Methods:Based on the China National Human Biomonitoring (CNHBM) program, a cross-sectional survey was conducted from 2017 to 2018 using a multi-stage stratified random sampling method, including a total of 10 713 adults aged 18 to 79 years. Data was obtained through questionnaires, physical examinations, biological sample collection, and laboratory testing. Multiple linear mixed effect model (MLMM) and generalized linear mixed effect model (GLMM) were used to analyze the association of blood and creatinine-corrected urinary cadmium levels with lipid profile levels as well as dyslipidemia among adults.Results:The age of 10 713 participants was (47.23±0.24) years, with 5 372 males accounting for 61.3% of the national population. The weighted mean±standard error (SE) of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was (5.21±0.03), (1.86±0.03), (2.96±0.03), and (1.43±0.01) mmol/L, respectively. The prevalence rate of hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, mixed hyperlipidemia, low HDL-C, and high LDL-C was 16.0%, 21.6%, 6.6%, 13.5%, and 10.0%, respectively. MLMM showed that, after adjusting for relevant confounders, log-transformed blood cadmium levels were positively associated with increased levels of TC, TG and LDL-C ( P<0.05). When blood cadmium levels were categorized into quartiles, compared to the lowest exposure group ( Q1), participants in the highest blood cadmium exposure group ( Q4) had increases of 0.19 (95% CI: 0.06, 0.32) mmol/L in TC and 0.25 (95% CI: 0.08, 0.43) mmol/L in TG. GLMM indicated that, after adjusting for confounders, higher blood cadmium exposure levels were associated with increased risks of hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, mixed hyperlipidemia, and high LDL-C ( P<0.05). Further analysis by quartiles showed that, compared to the blood cadmium Q1 exposure group, the OR value (95% CI) for the Q4 group was 1.53 (1.12, 2.08) for hypercholesterolemia, 1.54 (1.09, 2.17) for hypertriglyceridemia, 2.24 (1.47, 3.40) for mixed hyperlipidemia, and 1.49 (1.07, 2.09) for high LDL-C. Conclusion:The cadmium internal exposure levels are associated with blood lipid profile levels as well as the incidence of dyslipidemia in Chinese adults aged 18 to 79.

Decreased endometrial receptivity is a critical factor contributing to the decline in fertility among women of advanced age. With the increase of age, the endometrium exhibits diminished hormonal responsiveness, a phenomenon known as inflammaging, and an imbalance in immune cell populations. These changes impede the processes of endometrial epithelial-mesenchymal transition and decidualization, thereby negatively impacting embryo implantation and reducing overall fertility potential. Furthermore, adverse lifestyle choices, exposure to environmental factors, inflammatory conditions, and repeated interventions within the uterine cavity can result in pathological aging of the endometrium that does not align with its chronological age. This misalignment may be associated with the emergence of various reproductive disorders, even in younger women. This paper seeks to investigate the relationship between pathological aging of the endometrium and reproductive disorders, particularly in the context of embryo implantation, with the aim of providing new insights into the pathogenesis, clinical diagnosis, and treatment of reproductive disorders.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of the Wenyang Huazhuo Formula on spontaneous pregnancy outcomes in advanced-age infertile patients with spleen-kidney yang deficiency syndrome.Methods:A retrospective cohort study design was employed to gather clinical data from 303 advanced-age infertile patients with spleen-kidney yang deficiency syndrome who sought treatment at the Department of Reproductive Medicine in the First Teaching Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine between June 2019 and June 2023. Patients were categorized into two groups based on their treatment regiments: a basic treatment group (non-exposed group, n=151) and a group receiving basic treatment in conjunction with the Wenyang Huazhuo Formula (exposed group, n=152). The study compared and analyzed pregnancy outcomes, including time to pregnancy (TTP) within one year, ongoing pregnancy rate, and clinical pregnancy rate, between the two groups over a one-year follow-up period. Additionally, stratified analyses were performed based on age and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels to evaluate the impact of Wenyang Huazhuo Formula on pregnancy outcomes across different patient subgroups. Results:The TTP in the exposed group was significantly reduced compared with the non-exposed group ( HR=1.70, 95% CI: 1.12-2.57, P=0.013), suggesting a significant shortening of their TTP, and the ongoing pregnancy rate [28.29% (43/152)] and the clinical pregnancy rate [33.55% (51/152)] were significantly higher than those in the non-exposed group [13.91% (21/151), P=0.020; 21.85% (33/151), P=0.023], and the early abortion rate [15.69% (8/51)] was significantly reduced compared with the non-exposed group [36.36% (12/33), P=0.031]. Stratified analyses by age revealed that for patients aged 35-37 years, the exposed group exhibited a significantly shorter TTP ( HR=1.67, 95% CI: 1.03-2.70, P=0.038), while no significant difference in TTP was observed in the 38-44-year old patients ( HR=1.78, 95% CI: 0.77-4.10, P=0.174). Regarding the ongoing pregnancy rate, the exposed group showed a significant higher rate [31.31% (31/99)] than the non-exposed group [13.91% (15/112), P=0.022] among patients aged 35-37 years, whereas no significant difference was observed in the 38-44 years old group ( P=0.386). Stratified analysis based on AMH levels showed that both low AMH levels (<1.68 μg/L) and high AMH levels (≥1.68 μg/L) patients in the exposed group experienced a significant reduction in TTP compared with the non-exposed group ( HR=8.07, 95% CI: 1.04-62.52, P=0.046; HR=1.57, 95% CI: 1.01-2.43, P=0.044, respectively), along with a notable improvement in the ongoing pregnancy rate [13.64% (6/44) vs. 0% (0/29), P=0.038; 34.26% (37/108) vs.17.21% (21/122), P=0.028, respectively]. Further stratified analysis indicated that, compared with patients with low AMH levels, both the exposed group and the non-exposed group of patients with high AMH levels exhibited a significantly shorter TTP ( HR=1.91, 95% CI: 1.02-3.69, P=0.043; HR=9.48, 95% CI: 1.30-69.22, P=0.002, respectively), along with a significantly higher ongoing pregnancy rate ( P=0.014; P=0.008). Conclusion:The Wenyang Huazhuo Formula significantly shortens TTP, enhances both the clinical pregnancy rate and the ongoing pregnancy rate and reduces the early abortion rate in advanced-age infertile women diagnosed with spleen-kidney yang deficiency syndrome.

Objective:To systematically synthesize the real experiences of women who have undergone emergency cesarean sections, providing evidence-based insights to inform the development of personalized care strategies.Methods:A comprehensive literature search was conducted across PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, ProQuest, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, and China Biology Medicine disc for qualitative and mixed-methods studies related to the psychological experiences of women who underwent emergency cesarean sections. The search covered all publications up to January 31, 2025. The methodological quality of included studies was appraised using the Joanna Briggs Institute Center for Evidence-Based Health Care Quality Assessment Criteria for Qualitative Research. The results were integrated using an aggregative synthesis approach.Results:A total of 16 studies were included, from which 78 findings were extracted and grouped into nine new categories. These were further synthesized into three overarching themes: shift in birth plan and emergence of dynamic emotional responses; desire for diversified external support and encouragement; emotional investment and character growth.Conclusions:Women undergoing emergency cesarean sections commonly experience intense negative emotions. It is essential for healthcare providers and family members to pay close attention to the physical and psychological well-being of postpartum women, offer timely emotional support, and help them recover from psychological trauma, thereby promoting maternal mental and physical health.

Objective:To explore the association between greenspace morphology and the risk of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) in Shandong Province.Methods:The SFTS cases data and land use data in Shandong province from 2018 to 2022 were collected, 6 landscape indices were calculated through Fragstats 4.2 software, and a negative binomial regression model was used to quantitatively evaluate the effect. Meteorological and socioeconomic factors during the same period were controlled as covariates. Subgroup analysis were conducted by age, gender and occupation. The percentage of relative risk[(RR-1)×100%] with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was used as effect estimates. Results:There was a significant association between greenspace morphology and the risk of SFTS. Every 1% increase in the percentage, the mean area, fragmentation, aggregation, connectedness, and complexity of the shape of greenspace will lead to an increase in the risk of SFTS by 4.28% (95% CI: 2.88%-5.68%), 3.56% (95% CI: 1.06%-6.12%), 2.43% (95% CI: 1.38%-3.61%), 2.22% (95% CI: 1.39%-3.11%), 0.41% (95% CI: 0.26%-0.56%), 0.26% (95% CI: 0.10%-0.41%), respectively. There were statistically significant differences in the association between greenspace morphology and the risk of SFTS among different age and occupational subgroups. The elderly and farmers were the more susceptible to the changes in the percentage of greenspace and the complexity of the shape of greenspace. Conclusions:Greenspace morphology is related to the risk of SFTS. The elderly and farmers are vulnerable populations.
