ObjectiveTo explore the quantity-quality transfer process of medicinal materials， decoction pieces and standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（Haliotis discus hannai） by analyzing the physical phase and compositional changes， so as to provide references for the effective control of its quality. MethodsA total of 20 batches of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai） from different habitats were collected and prepared into corresponding calcined products and standard decoction， and the content of CaCO₃ of the three samples were determined and the extract yield and transfer rate of CaCO₃ were calculated. The changes in elemental composition and their relative contents were investigated by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry（XRF）， X-ray diffraction（XRD） was used to study the changes in the phase compositions of the three samples and to establish their respective XRD specific chromatogram. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry（FTIR） was used to study the changes in the chemical composition and content changes of the three samples and to establish their respective FTIR specific chromatogram， while combining hierarchical cluster analysis（HCA）， principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA） to find the common and differential characteristics， in order to explore the quantity-quality transfer relationship in the preparation process of standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai）. ResultsThe CaCO₃ contents of the 20 batches of medicinal materials， decoction pieces and standard decoction of Haliotidis Concha（H. discus hannai） were 93.87%-98.95%， 96.02%-99.97% and 38.29%-51.96%， respectively， and the extract yield of standard decoction was 1.71%-2.37%， and the CaCO₃ transfer rate of decoction pieces-standard decoction was 0.68%-1.27%. XRF results showed that the elemental species and their relative contents contained in Haliotidis Concha and its calcined products had a high degree of similarity， and although there was no obvious difference in the elemental species contained in decoction pieces and standard decoction， the difference in the relative contents was obvious， which was mainly reflected in the decrease of the relative content of element Ca and the increase of the relative content of element Na. XRD results showed that Haliotidis Concha mainly contained CaCO₃ of aragonite and calcite， while calcined Haliotidis Concha only contained CaCO₃ of calcite， and standard decoction mainly contained CaCO₃ of calcite and Na₂CO₃ of natrite. FTIR results showed that there were internal vibrations of O-H， C-H， C=O， HCO₃^- and CO₃^2- groups in Haliotidis Concha， while O-H， HCO₃^- and CO₃^2- groups existed in the calcined products and standard decoction. ConclusionThe changes of Haliotidis Concha and calcined Haliotidis Concha are mainly the increase of CaCO₃ content， the transformation of CaCO₃ aragonite crystal form to calcite crystal form and the absence of organic components after calcination， and the changes of calcined products and standard decoction are mainly the decrease of CaCO₃ content and the increase of Na₂CO₃ relative content. The method established in the study is applicable to the quality control of the shellfish medicines-decoction pieces- standard decoction， which provides a new idea for the study of quality control of dispensing granules of shellfish medicines.

BACKGROUND: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of birth defect-related mortality. However, more recent CHD mortality data for China are lacking. Additionally, limited studies have evaluated sex, rural-urban, and region-specific disparities of CHD mortality in China. METHODS: We designed a population-based study using data from the Dataset of National Mortality Surveillance in China between 2008 and 2021. We calculated age-adjusted CHD mortality using the sixth census data of China in 2010 as the standard population. We assessed the temporal trends in CHD mortality by age, sex, area, and region from 2008 to 2021 using the joinpoint regression model. RESULTS: From 2008 to 2021, 33,534 deaths were attributed to CHD. The period witnessed a two-fold decrease in the age-adjusted CHD mortality from 1.61 to 0.76 per 100,000 persons (average annual percent change [AAPC] = -5.90%). Females tended to have lower age-adjusted CHD mortality than males, but with a similar decline rate from 2008 to 2021 (females: AAPC = -6.15%; males: AAPC = -5.84%). Similar AAPC values were observed among people living in urban (AAPC = -6.64%) and rural (AAPC = -6.12%) areas. Eastern regions experienced a more pronounced decrease in the age-adjusted CHD mortality (AAPC = -7.86%) than central (AAPC = -5.83%) and western regions (AAPC = -3.71%) between 2008 and 2021. Approximately half of the deaths (46.19%) due to CHD occurred during infancy. The CHD mortality rates in 2021 were lower than those in 2008 for people aged 0-39 years, with the largest decrease observed among children aged 1-4 years (AAPC = -8.26%), followed by infants (AAPC = -7.01%). CONCLUSIONS CHD mortality in China has dramatically decreased from 2008 to 2021. The slower decrease in CHD mortality in the central and western regions than in the eastern regions suggested that public health policymakers should pay more attention to health resources and health education for central and western regions.

Objective To explore the protective effect and mechanism of endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS)signaling pathway PERK/eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP on BRL-3A cell injury by serum containing Zhige oral solution.Methods ①Preparation of drug-containing serum:SD male rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:Zhige oral solution group,Metadoxine group and normal group,and were gavaged with Zhige oral solution,Metadoxine and saline respectively,and the drug-containing serum was prepared by blood sampling from the abdominal aorta for 5 consecutive days of intervention.②Normal BRL-3A cells were cultured,and the cell survival rate of each group was determined by CCK-8 after 24h of cell intervention with different concentrations of ethanol(1.0%,1.5%,2.0%,2.5%,3.0%,5.0%,7.0%,10.0%).③Cultured normal BRL-3A cells were divided into normal group,model group,metadoxine group,and Zhige oral solution low,medium and high dose group(later referred to as low dose group,medium dose group and high dose group),After 24 h,the levels of γ-glutamyl transpeptidase(GGT)and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)in the supernatant of each group were measured,and the survival rate of BRL-3A cells was measured by CCK-8.The expression levels of PERK/eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway-related mRNA and protein in each group were measured by Real-time PCR and Western blot.Results ①After 24 h of cell intervention with the same concentration of ethanol(1.0%,1.5%,2.0%,2.5%,3.0%,5.0%,7.0%,10.0%),the cell survival rate gradually decreased with the increase of ethanol concentration,and when the ethanol concentration was 5%,the cell survival rate decreased significantly(P<0.05),so the ethanol concentrations of 1.0%,1.5%,2.0%,2.5%,3.0%,5.0%were chosen for the subsequent experiments.②Compared with the normal group,the GGT and LDH contents in the supernatant of the model group were significantly higher(P<0.05),and the expression of PERK/eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway-related factors mRNA and protein were significantly higher(P<0.05),showing a significant state of liver injury.③Compared with the model group,the Zhige oral solution group and the metadoxine group showed different degrees of reduction in the above indexes,with the most significant effect in the Zhige oral solution high-dose group(P<0.05).Conclusion Serum containing Zhige oral solution ameliorated ethanol-induced hepatocyte injury in BRL-3A rats,and the mechanism may be related to the inhibition of endoplasmic reticulum stress PERK/eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP signaling pathway.

Objective To evaluate the effects of long-term high-fat diet on skin wound repair in mice, and to explore its related mechanism. Methods A total of 16 ten-week-old C57BL/6J wild-type mice were randomly and equally divided into two groups to be fed a high-fat diet(HFD group)and a standard diet(SD group)respectively for 8 weeks. Then, an 8-mm full-thickness skin wound was created on the back of each mouse by using a biopsy punch. The degree of wound healing was observed, wound healing rate and epithelialization level were evaluated every day. The weight of mice was measured before feeding, after 8-week feeding and on day 14 after the operation. Peripheral blood samples were obtained from these mice for the determination of total cholesterol(TC)and triglyceride(TG)levels after a 12-hour fast on day 14 after the operation. Then, all the mice were sacrificed, and wound tissues were resected from the dorsal skin of mice for a histological study. The two-sample t test was used to compare the thickness of new epidermis in the wound surface, collagen deposition rate in the wound bed, count of new vessels, levels of cell proliferation and degree of inflammatory cell infiltration between the two groups. Results The average weight of mice was significantly higher in the HFD group than in the SD group after 8-week feeding(27.3 ± 0.7 g vs. 21.2 ± 0.6 g, t = 21.98, P < 0.001)and on day 14 after the operation (28.8 ± 0.7 g vs. 23.1 ± 1.1 g, t = 25.22, P < 0.001). Similarly, there was a significant increase in the levels of TC(1.35 ± 0.32 mmol/L vs. 0.99 ± 0.28 mmol/L, t = 2.24, P < 0.05)and TG(4.21 ± 0.41 mmol/L vs. 2.71 ± 0.31 mmol/L, t = 6.49, P < 0.05)in the HFD group compared with the SD group 14 days after the operation. Compared with the SD group, the HFD group showed shorter healing time (13.5 ± 0.5 days vs. 12.6 ± 1.1 days, t = 1.99, P < 0.05), lower thickness of newborn epidermis on the wound surface (47.8 ± 13.8 μm vs. 95.7 ± 13.7 μm, t = 5.68, P < 0.001), decreased number of CD31-positive vessels(8 ± 1 vs. 13 ± 3, t = 4.1, P < 0.001)and count of ki-67-positive cells(21 ± 4 vs. 49 ± 10, t = 3.33, P < 0.001), but increased count of infiltrating macrophages and mast cells (both P < 0.05). No significant difference was found in collagen deposition rate in the wound bed between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion Long-term high-fat diet can affect wound healing and delay skin wound repair in mice.

Objective To develop social integration scale of the disabled,and to test the reliability and validity of the scale.Methods 511 disabled persons were investigated by self-made social integration scale and Chinese version of positive and negative affect schedule (PANAS-C).Results The Scale was composed of three factors:self integration,relationship integration and affection integration,and they explained 47.39％ of variance.The theoretical model fit could be accepted (x2/df =2.051,P＜0.001;RMSEA =0.046;GFI =0.884;CFI =0.926;IFI =0.927).The factors had significant correlated with positive affect (r=0.34-0.55,P＜0.01)and positive affect (r=-0.12--0.32,P＜0.01).The high score group and low score group of social integration had significant differences in positive affect (t=13.77,P＜0.01)and negative affect(t=-7.58,P＜0.01).The cronbach's alpha coefficients of the scale and the three factors were 0.94,0.92,0.87 and 0.89 respectively,and the seven sub-factors'cronbach 's alpha coefficients were from 0.76 to 0.87.Conclusion The theory construct of social integration of the disabled is multi-hierarchical and multi-dimensional.The scale has acceptable reliability and validity,and can be used to assess the degree of social integration of the disabled.

Objective To explore the relationship between resilience and personality among the physically disabled people.Methods A total of 668 disabled persons were tested by Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC), Eysenck Personality Questionnaire Short Scale (EPQ-RSC), Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (SES).Results The score of resilience of disabled people(53.42± 18.18) was than lower Chinese community people (65.4 ± 13.9, t =-16.83, P＜ 0.05).The scores of the three sub-factors were tenacity (27.19 ± 10.23), strength (18.11 ±6.42) ,optimism(8.09±3.00).The disabled persons' resilience was positively correlated with self-esteem(r=0.52,P＜0.01) ,extraversion(r=0.47, P＜0.01) ,and negatively correlated with psychoticism(r=-0.34, P＜0.01), neuroticism(r=-0.32, P＜0.01).Self-esteem and extraversion could make positive predictions,while psychoticism and neuroticism could make negative predictions to the resilience of disabled persons.Conclusion The disabled Persons' personality is closely related with resilience and has significant predictions to resilience.

Objective To investigate the distribution of pathogens detected in blood cultures and the value of double blood cul‐ture .Methods There were 2 033 cases of blood cultures including 1 425 cases of single blood culture and 608 cases of doube blood cultures were in the study .Blood cultures were performed by using Bact/Alert3D automated detection system ,and the positive blood culture results were statistically analyzed .Results There were 251 blood culture positive samples ,the detection rate was 12 .3% (251/2 033) .Among them ,the positive rate of single blood culture was 11 .9% (169/1 425);positive rate of double blood culture was 13 .5% (82/608) .There were 216 strains of pathogenic bacteria(repeatedly culture of the same pathogen from the same patient only accounted for 1 strain) .The isolates of gram positive(G+ ) cocci accounted for 65 .7% (142/216) and the major bacteria were coagulase negative Staphy lococci .Escherichia coli and Acinetobacter baumannii were the dominant isolates among Enterobac‐teriaceae[accounted for 20 .8% (45/216)] and Non‐fermenting gram‐negative(G-) rods[accounted for 8 .8% (19/216)] ,respective‐ly .The isolating rate of doube blood cultures was significantly higher than the single one(P<0 .05) .Coagulase‐negative staphylo‐coccus were isolated primarily in single blood culture and double blood culture with only one test postive .Non‐fermenting gram‐neg‐ative rods and fungi were the most common strains isolated from double blood culture with two tests both postive .Conclusion The distributions of pathogens isolated from single blood culture ,double blood culture with only one test positive and two tests positive are different .Because collecting double sets of blood cultures can significantly increase the isolating rates and distinguish contamina‐tion from real bloodstream infection ,collecting double sets of blood cultures should be recommended .Double blood culture is helpful to improve the detection rate of pathogenic bacteria and bacteria identification .

Objective To explore the characteristics of resilience and the relationships between resilience and social integration of disabled people.Methods By convenient sampling,a total of 702 disabled people were investigated by Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale,Social Integration Scale of the Disabled and self-made general questionnaire.Results The score of resilience of disabled people(53.27± 18.21) was lower than chinese community people(65.4± 13.9,t=-13.19,P＜0.01).The resilience scores were significantly lower of the disabled people who came from rural areas,younger(≤ 24 years old) or older(≥ 60 years old),and were disabled from birth had poor family economic conditions,and had no insurances(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).But the disabled people who had university degree or above,married,working,and had warm and harmonious family atmosphere,had significantly higher resilience scores (P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The vesilience and three sub-factors were significantly correlated with social integration (r=0.38-0.66,P＜0.01).The high resilience group had higher score in integration and three dimensions compared with the low resilience group(t=11.60-19.02,P＜0.01).Tenacity and strength directly influenced the three dimensions of social integration (the path coefficient were 0.18-0.46,P＜0.01).Conclusion The resilience of the disabled people is lower,and there are close relationships between resilience and social integration.The training of tenacity and strength is beneficial to social integration of the disabled people.

Objective To analyze the association between β2-AK 27 locus genetic polymorphisms and asthma, and the protective effect in airway hyperreactivity.
