Objective:To investigate the protective effects and possible mechanisms of cortex phellodendri water extract and etha -nol extract on the myocardial injury induced by pituitrin and isoproterenol hydrochloride in rats .Methods:SD rats as the experimental animals were randomly divided into the normal control group , model group , compound Danshen tablets group , phellodendron water ex-tract group and phellodendron ethanol extract group .Pituitrin and isopropyl adrenaline hydrochloride were used to establish the myocar-dial injury model in rats.The serum CK, LDH activity, myocardial tissue SOD activity and MDA content were detected and compared . Results:Compared with those in the normal control group , the serum LDH activity , CK activity and MDA content were significantly in-creased , and the SOD activity in cardiac muscle and myocardial tissue was significantly decreased in the pituitrin -established myocardi-al injury model group (P<0.01).In the isopropyl adrenaline hydrochloride-established myocardial injury model group , the MDA con-tent in myocardial tissue was obviously increased , and the SOD activity in myocardial tissue was decreased obviously (P<0.01).The serum LDH activity, CK activity and MDA content were significantly decreased , and the SOD activity in cardiac muscle and myocardial tissue was increased significantly in all drug-taken groups when compared with those in the pituitrin-established myocardial injury model group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05 or P<0.01).The MDA content in myocardial tissue was significant-ly reduced , and the SOD activity was increased significantly in all drug-taken groups when compared with those in the isopropyl adrena-line hydrochloride-established myocardial injury model group , and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion:Cortex phellodendri extract has certain protective effect on myocardial injury induced by pituitrin and isopropyl adrenaline hydrochloride in rats .

OBJECTIVE: To study the relationship between obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and insulin resistance (IR), then evaluate the effectiveness of the improved Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (MUPPP) and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on IR. METHOD: Fourteen patients of OSAHS were treated by MUPPP, and sixteen patients of OSAHS were treated by CPAP. All index of the nocturnal polysomnography, fasting plasma insulin, fasting plasma glucose, insulin and blood sugar of 2 hours after meal were analyzed before and after therapy, and 10 patients of OSAHS were untreated by MUPPP or CPAP. The other 33 cases of non-OSAHS were selected as control group. According to the model of HOMA and the formula of LiGuangwei,insulin resistance index and insulin sensitivity index were calculated, respectively. RESULT: There were significant differences between OSAHS group before treatment and control group, before and after treatment, after treatment and untreated group (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05). There was very significant correlation between IAI and LSaO2 (r = 0.633),and there was significantly negative correlation between IAI and AHI (r = -0.654). CONCLUSION OSAHS is an important risk factor for the development of insulin resistance. It shows that OSAHS may develop IR of the patients and the treatment of MUPPP and CPAP can improve insulin sensitivity.

Objective:To understand the employment situation of graduates of public health-related majors and explore the associated factors of turnover intention among public health practitioners in China.Methods:In April 2020, the convenient sampling method was used to recruit public health related graduates from 98 universities with public health-related majors from 31 provinces in China (excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan) and from Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (only including working or unemployed status, no requirement for graduation years). A total of 1 322 questionnaires were collected, of which 1 165 (88.1%) were valid. Through the network questionnaire survey, the information of public health graduates′ work situation, job satisfaction and turnover intention were collected. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the associated factors of turnover intention, and structural equation model was constructed to explore the correlation between turnover intention and job satisfaction.Results:The age of 1 165 graduates was (28.1 ±4.8) years. Among them, 719 (61.7%) were female and 856 (73.5%) graduates were engaged in public health-related work after graduation. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with those over 30 years old, graduates under 30 years old had higher turnover intention ( OR=2.531, 95% CI: 1.549-4.155). Compared with those with junior or no title, graduates with senior title had higher turnover intention ( OR=2.310, 95% CI: 1.047-5.162). The results of structural equation model analysis showed that the four factors of job satisfaction, ‘salary and welfare’, ‘promotion development’, ‘work itself’, and ‘internal and external environment’, were negatively correlated with turnover intention. The internal and external environment had the greatest impact on turnover intention (total effect =-0.539). Conclusion:Most graduates of public health-related majors are engaged in public health-related work in China. Age, professional title and job satisfaction are the associated factors of turnover intention.

Objective:To investigate public health-related professions' recruit requirements and understand the training scheme for preventive medicine-majored undergraduates in colleges and universities in China.Methods:An online questionnaire was adopted to collect data on the recruit requirements of public health-related professions. Information on the core courses, internship, and practical training for preventive medicine-majored undergraduates was collected through universities' official websites.Results:The employers had a high requirement for education and specific majors. Also, administration professions attached importance to comprehensive quality, while professional positions to professional skills. 47.2% (67/142) employers made Talent Introduction Programs for the next three years. 20.0% (3/15) universities offered all the core courses required by national standards. For internship and practical training, both clinical practice and professional practice's median durations were 16 and 11 weeks, respectively.Conclusion:Employers showed significant demand for public health graduates and having a high requirement for personal ability and comprehensive quality. The universities should improve the setting of core courses and strengthen students' practical ability and overall quality.

Objective:To understand the basic qualities, practitioners will and related influences, of undergraduate, master, and doctoral students majoring in public health (hereinafter referred to as public health students), and explore the influencing factors of practitioners will.Methods:Through the online questionnaire survey, we collected information on the basic qualities of the public health students, their practitioners will and related influencing factors, and their opinions on the current state of public health in China. χ 2 test and multi-factor logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of public health students' willingness to engage in public health related work, and word frequency analysis was used to conduct a descriptive analysis of public health students' views on public health in China. Results:A total of 2 081 pieces of valid information were collected, of which 86.54% (1 801/2 081) of the students in the school chose to engage in public health related work in the future. For public health students, the higher the target after-tax monthly income ( OR=0.345, 95% CI: 0.158-0.751), the lower the willingness to engage in public health related work in the future; Very satisfied with school employment guidance work ( OR=4.072, 95% CI: 1.234-13.436) compared with very dissatisfied, the willingness to engage in public health related work in the future is higher. Conclusion:The willingness of students in public health related majors to engage in public health related majors in China is mainly affected by three factors: payment levels, employment guidance and professional post recognition. It is recommended to appropriately raise the salaries of public health related positions. Strengthening school employment guidance training and professional identity training is conducive to enhancing the willingness of public health students to engage in relevant work in their profession.
