Objective To observe the effectiveness and mechanism of Xiaoyao San (Xiaoyao Powder for Soothing Liver and Relieving Depression) in improving depression-like behavior of rats. Methods Male Wistar rats were randomized into normal group, model group, Xiaoyao San (1.9 g·kg-1·d-1) group, and fluoxetine (2 mg·kg-1·d-1) group. The rats were exposed to chronic unpredictable mild stress ( CUMS) to induce rat depression-like behavior. Field test was performed for the observation of effect of Xiaoyao San on rat depression-like behavior, Luminex liquid chip system was applied to detect the serum cytokines, and the amount and size of rat hepatic sinusoidal endothelial window were examined under electron microscope, and hepatic indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase ( IDO) and tryptophan 2, 3 -dioxygenaes ( TDO) expression levels were detected by immunohistochemical and Western blot methods. Results Xiaoyao San showed obvious effect on increasing sugar water consumption, the number of crossing the blocks and erection frequency in rats, decreasing serum levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha ( TNF-α) and interleukin 6 ( IL-6) , increasing the amount of hepatic sinusoidal endothelial window, promoting hepatic sinusoidal endothelial vascularization, and reducing TDO and IDO expression ( P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion Xiaoyao San exerts obvious effect on improving rat depression-like behaviors, and the mechanism is probably related with the decrease of inflammatory factors, inhibition of IDO pathway, and improvement of hepatic sinusoidal endothelial function.

Objective:To explore the effect and mechanism of recovery experience, distress disclosure and self-efficacy on negative emotion in operating room nurses.Methods:The 270 operating room nurses from 4 general hospitals were selected as the research objects by convenience sampling method in May 2023, and cross-sectional investigation was carried out with general data questionnaire, Recovery Experience Scale, Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale, Distress Disclosure Index Scale and General Self-Efficacy Scale. Model 6 of Hayes′ SPSS-Process program was used to test the mediation effect.Results:Among 270 nurses in the operating room, there were 48 males and 222 females, aged (32.07 ± 5.27) years old. The scores of recovery experience, negative emotion, distress disclosure and self-efficacy of operating room nurses were (42.36 ± 9.67), (25.37 ± 11.25), (38.13 ± 9.41) and (24.37 ± 4.57) points, respectively. The scores of recovery experience of operating rooms nurses with different ages, professional titles, working years in operating rooms and positions were statistically different ( F values were 3.04 to 10.44, all P<0.05). Recovery experience had a direct negative predictive effect on negative emotion ( β=-0.268, P<0.01), and the direct effect was 46.69%. Distress disclosure and self-efficacy had partial mediating effects between recovery experience and negative emotion, independent mediating effects were 16.38%, 30.31%, and chain mediating effects were 6.62%, respectively. Mastering experience and controlling experience were the influencing factors of depression and anxiety, and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were -3.71 to-2.11, all P<0.05). Relaxation experience and psychological detachment were the influencing factors of stress, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-2.52, -2.30, both P<0.05). Distress disclosure and self-efficacy were the factors influencing the three dimensions of negative emotion, and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were -3.34 to -2.13, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The recovery experience of operating room nurses is a positive psychological factor affecting negative emotion, and distress disclosure and self-efficacy are important psychological mechanisms between them. Managers should pay attention to nurses' negative emotion and the mediating effect of nurses′ distress disclosure and self-efficacy, and take more active measures to reduce the level of negative emotion.

Objective:To analyze the application effect of the information platform based on the Internet of Things (IoT) in the screening and management of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:In this cross-sectional study, 151 062 residents who participated in the screening in the districts covered by 33 general hospitals and 289 primary medical institutions within the framework of Henan Provincial Center for COPD Prevention and Treatment from November 2021 to October 2022 were included as the subjects. Spirometer based on the IoT was used to conduct pulmonary function tests for subjects who scored 16 points or more with COPD Screening Questionnaire (COPD-SQ), and the subjects were evaluated and managed through the structured electronic data in the information platform. The distribution characteristics and follow-up of the subjects and COPD patients were described and the application effect of this strategy in patients screening and management was analyzed.Results:A total of 151 062 residents with complete basic information in the information platform completed the questionnaire. High-risk population of COPD accounted for 26.5% (40 042/151 062) of the population who received the questionnaire screening, and more than 50% had respiratory symptoms, such as chronic cough (59.4%), or shortness of breath (77.6%). The proportion of high-risk population increased with age, especially after 50 years old. Compared with non-smokers, the proportion of high-risk group was significantly higher (77.1% vs 16.4%) in the group with smoking index over 600. Biofuel exposure (61.3% vs 22.1%) and family history of respiratory diseases (64.2% vs 22.6%) were associated with an increased proportion of high-risk groups, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.001). 5 268 patients were diagnosed with COPD by pulmonary function tests, and the prevalence of COPD in high-risk groups was 27.8% (5 268/18 965), the prevalence rate of male was 34.0% (3 942/11 588), which was higher than that of female 18.0% (1 326/7 377). 2 950 patients (56.0%) completed at least one follow-up of symptom questionnaire and 510 patients (9.7%) completed more than one follow-up of pulmonary function test. Conclusion:The screening and management strategy of COPD based on the IoT and information technology can improve the efficiency of COPD screening, and improve the status quo of under-diagnosis and discontinuous follow-up of COPD.
