In this paper, menstruation prescriptions were selected from "Fu Qingzhu's Obstetrics and Gynecology" and analyzed by using GRI algorithm, correlation analysis, hierarchical clustering method through SPSS, Clementine and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) inheritance auxiliary systems, in order to screen out 15 menopathy prescriptions, which involve 45 traditional Chinese medicine herbs. In the study, blood-tonifying and qi-tonifying herbs were found to be frequent in the prescriptions. The most frequent single herb was white paeony root, accounting for 9.6% in the total number of prescriptions; The most frequent herb pairs were white paeony root-radix rehmanniae preparata and paeony root-angelica sinensis. Among Fu Shan's menopathy prescriptions, 61 herbal pairs showed a correlation coefficient exceeding 0.05, which evolved into 16 pairs of core combinations. The analysis showed that menopathy prescriptions in volume 1 of "Fu Qingzhu's Obstetrics and Gynecology" focused on tonic traditional Chinese medicines involving liver, spleen and kidney and were adjusted according to changes in qi, blood, cold, hot and wet, which could provide a specific reference for further studies on Fu Shan's academic thoughts and traditional Chinese medicine clinical treatment of menopathy.

[ ABSTRACT ] AIM: To study the effect of idazoxan on the permeability of inflammatory blood-brain barrier ( BBB) model in vitro and the expression of tight junction protein ZO-1.METHODS:In vitro BBB model was established by murine brain endothelial cell line bEnd.3 incubated for 7 d.The cells were treated with TNF-α(10 nmol/L) for addi-tional 24 h to establish the inflammatory BBB model, which was pretreated with IDA at doses of 50, 100 and 200μmol/L, respectively.The permeability was measured using fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated dextran (FD-40, MW 40,000), the expression of ZO-1 was detected by Western blot analysis, the distribution of ZO-1 was observed by immunofluores-cence, and the mRNA expression of MMP-9/TIMP-1 was measured by RT-PCR.RESULTS:After incubated for 7 d, b. End3 cells converged to be confluent monolayer with low permeability.The inflammatory BBB model induced by TNF-αtreatment displayed much higher permeability with decreased expression of tight junction protein ZO-1, destroyed distribu-tion of ZO-1 and increased mRNA expression of MMP-9.When pretreated with IDA, the permeability was greatly de-creased, the expression of ZO-1 was greatly increased, the abnormal distribution of ZO-1 was greatly ameliorated and the mRNA expression of MMP-9 was obviously reduced.The effect was most significant in IDA ( 200 μmol/L )-pretreated group (P<0.01).CONCLUSION:IDA directly acts on brain endothelial cells to reduce the expression of MMP-9, in-crease the expression of tight junction protein ZO-1 and ameliorate the destroyed distribution of ZO-1 in the inflammatory BBB, thus reversing the abnormally elevated permeability in a inflammatory BBB model in vitro induced by TNF-α.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence of scoliosis among primary and middle school students in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide insights into scoliosis control among children and adolescents. Methods: Grade 4 to 6 primary school students and grade 1 to 3 junior high school students were recruited using a stratified cluster sampling method in Jiaxing City in 2019. Participants' demographic characteristics, dietary habits and nutritional status, physical activity, learning environments, reading and writing habits were collected using questionnaires. Scoliosis was screened through general examinations, forward bend test and scoliometer, and scoliosis was diagnosed with whole-spine X-ray scans in an erect position. The prevalence of scoliosis was descriptively analyzed among primary and middle school students. Results: A total of 8 026 primary and middle school students were included, 7 304 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 91.00%. The respondents included 3 667 primary school students (50.21%) and 3 637 junior high school students (49.79%), and included 3 776 boys (51.70%) and 3 528 girls (48.30%). There were 659 participants with initial screening positive for scoliosis (9.02%), and the percentages of positive initial screening of thoracic, thoracolumbar and lumbar scoliosis were 2.93%, 4.56% and 4.56%, respectively. A higher percentage of positive initial screening of scoliosis was diagnosed among participants living in Pinghu City (10.45%), junior high school students (11.74%), girls (11.96%), students with a medical history of anemia (22.44%), students with less than 3 days of moderate-intensity physical activity in the past week (9.46%), students with less than 3 days of walking duration of over 10 minutes in the past week (10.18%), students with daily sitting duration of 5 hours and more in the past week (10.74%), students with their class seats exchanged every semester or month (10.28%), students with daily reading and writing duration of 3 hours and more after school (10.93%) and students with less than 10 cm distance from the chest at reading or writing to the edge of the table (9.67%) (all P<0.05). A total of 218 students received whole-spine X-ray scans in an erect position, 132 participants were definitively diagnosed as scoliosis (60.55%), and the estimated prevalence of scoliosis was 5.46%. Conclusion The percentage of positive initial screening of scoliosis was 9.02% among primary and middle school students in Jiaxing City. Gender, stage of learning, nutritional status, exercise frequency and habits of reading and writing may be factors affecting the development of scoliosis.

ObjectiveTo examine the application of functional reach test(FRT) in the assessment of fall risk in stroke patients with hemiplegia.MethodsThis study used a randomized repeated measures trial design. 51 post-stroke patients with hemiplegia were recruited and were assigned into three groups, fallen group, falling group and no-fall group, according to the result of the survey on the patients' history of fall. FRT was performed for the three groups respectively to obtain confidence interval that predict fall risk more effectively according to the result of FRT. Fall risk by confidence lower limit was predicted.ResultsThe reaching distance anteriorly and posteriorly in FRT was highly correlated of the number of fall(r=-0.788，P<0.01). When the reaching distance was lower than 42.15 cm, the fall risk of the examinee was highest.ConclusionFRT can be applied to predict the fall risk of the examinee, and can also be used in the assessment of fall risk in stroke patients with hemiplegia.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of ablative fractionated erbium: yttrium aluminum garnet (Er: YAG) laser in facial acne scars and enlarged pores. Methods Forty-one patients with mild to moderate pitted acne scars and 23 patients with enlarged pores were treated with 81 (9 × 9) bits of facula for 3 to 5 sessions at an interval of 1 month. For acne scars, the pulse duration was medium to long, energy at 800 to 1200 mJ, and number of stacking passes 4 to 8; for enlarged pores, the pulse duration was medium, energy at 800 to 1000 mJ and number of stacking passes 2 to 4. The clinical improvement was evaluated by 2 blinded dermatologists. Meanwhile, the satisfaction rate was self-assessed by patients. Three-dimensional (3D) micro-topography imaging system was used to evaluate the improvement in surface roughness. Results The efficacy reached 82.93% and 86.96% for ache scars and enlarged pores, respectively. The satisfaction rate was 88.80% and 91.30% in patients with ache scars and those with enlarged pores, respectively. After treatment, the Ra and Rz values, as the indicators of roughness, decreased by 18.74% and 21.01%, individually (P < 0.001) in 11 patients including 6 with acne scars and 5 with enlarged pores. Conclusion Ablative fractionated Er:YAG laser can efficiently resurface pitted ache scars and shrink enlarged pores.
