ObjectiveThis study aims to explore the mechanism by which Yishen Huoxue Tongqiao Formula improves metabolism-neuroplasticity and treats unilateral vestibular labyrinth destruction by regulating the metabolic balance of glutamate （Glu）/γ-aminobutyric acid （GABA）. Methods48 Sprague-Dawley （SD） adult rats were randomly divided into the sham operation group， model group， Yishen Huoxue Tongqiao Formula groups with low， medium， and high doses （9.20， 18.39， 36.78 g·kg^-1）， and betahistine group （1.62 mg·kg^-1）. A unilateral vestibular labyrinth destruction （vestibular dysfunction） model was established by intratympanic injection of chloroform into the right ear， while the control group received intratympanic injection of normal saline. Drugs were administered once daily for seven consecutive days. During the period， behavioral tests were performed to evaluate the behaviors of rats after unilateral vestibular labyrinth destruction. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and Nissl staining were used to observe the neuronal morphology in the medial vestibular nucleus. Golgi staining was employed to assess the number of dendritic spines of neurons in the medial vestibular nucleus. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry （LC-ESI-MS/MS） was utilized to detect Glu/GABA. Immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expressions of neuronal nuclei （NeuN）， growth-associated protein 43 （GAP-43）， and glial fibrillary acidic protein （GFAP）. Western blot and real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） were applied to determine the expressions of glutamate-immunoreactive （Glu-IR）， GABA， GFAP， postsynaptic density protein 95 （PSD-95）， and GAP-43. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group， the model group presented with head deviation， balance disorder， increased tail suspension score， nuclear consolidation of medial vestibular nerve neurons， and decreased Nissl bodies （P<0.01）. The number of dendritic spines in neurons and NeuN-positive cells decreased. The content of Glu decreased. The content of GABA increased （Glu/GABA decreased）. The expression of GAP-43 was down-regulated， and GFAP was up-regulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The expressions of Glu-IR， PSD-95， and GAP-43 proteins， as well as Glu-IR mRNA decreased， while the expressions of GABA and GFAP proteins and mRNA increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with those in the model group， the head deviation， imbalanced behavior， and tail suspension scores in each treatment group decreased， with alleviated neuronal injury and recovered Nissl bodies （P<0.01）. The number of dendritic spines of neurons increased， and the number of NeuN-positive cells rebounded. The content of Glu increased， and the content of GABA decreased （Glu/GABA increased）. GFAP was down-regulated， and GAP-43 was up-regulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The expressions of Glu-IR， PMD-95， and GAP-43 proteins， as well as Glu-IR mRNA increased， while the expressions of GABA and GFAP proteins and mRNA decreased. The effect was more significant in the high-dose group （P<0.01）. ConclusionThe Yishen Huoxue Tongqiao Formula can alleviate vestibular dysfunction， and its mechanism may be associated with regulating the metabolic balance of Glu/GABA， mitigating neural damage， improving synaptic plasticity （promoting GAP-43 expression and inhibiting GFAP expression）， and facilitating vestibular compensation.

Objective To investigate the association between lifestyle and risk of heart disease and diabetes in the elderly population in Xi'an City. Methods From January 2021 to January 2024, a staged cluster sampling method was used to investigate the lifestyle and the occurrence of heart disease and diabetes in elderly population aged 60 years and above in the communities of Xi'an. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the relationship between lifestyle and the risk of heart disease and diabetes. Results A total of 413 elderly people were investigated, of which 31.96% had heart disease, 27.12% had diabetes, and 10.90% had diabetes with heart disease. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age, BMI, family history, sweet food preference, smoking, and sitting and lying for a long time were risk factors for diabetes in the elderly population (P<0.05). Age, BMI, family history, history of diabetes, preference for salted products, smoking, drinking, and sitting and lying for a long time were risk factors for heart disease in the elderly population (P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence rates of heart disease and diabetes are high in the elderly population in Xi'an City. The risk of diabetes is related to unhealthy lifestyles such as sweet food preference, smoking, and sitting and lying for a long time, while heart disease is related to unhealthy lifestyles such as preference for salted products, smoking, drinking, and sitting and lying for a long time.

Objective:To investigate the repair effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)on interferon gamma(IFN-γ)induced ovarian granulosa cell immune injury.Methods:A model of IFN-γ-induced ovarian granulosa cell immune injury was estab-lished.KGN cells after modeling were co-cultured with human BMSCs(hBMSCs)and divided into three groups:negative control(NC)group,IFN-γ group,and BMSC group.After co-culture,cell proliferation was determined by a cell counting kit 8 assay for 3 consecu-tive days.Cell apoptosis was determined using an Annexin V-FITC apoptosis detection kit and a CytoFLEX flow cytometer.The estra-diol level and the mRNA expression levels of aromatase CYP19A1 and FSHR were measured to evaluate the hormone synthesis ability.The level of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),mRNA expression levels of NLRP3,caspase-1(CASP1),and interleukin-1β,and protein expression levels of NLRP3,CASP1,and gasdermin-D were determined to evaluate cell pyroptosis.Results:The proliferation rate of granulosa cells in the IFN-γ group and the BMSC group was lower than that in the NC group at 24 h,48 h and 72 h,and that in the IFN-γ group was lower than that in the BMSC group(P<0.001).The number of apoptotic granulosa cells in the INF-γ group and the BMSC group was higher than that in the NC group,and that in the INF-γ group was higher than that in the BMSC group(P<0.001).The estradiol level in the INF-γ group and the BMSC group was lower than that in the NC group,and that in the INF-γ group was lower than that in the BMSC group(P<0.001).Compared with the IFN-γ group,the mRNA expression of CYP19A1 and FSHR in the BMSC group decreased(P<0.001).Compared with the IFN-γ group,the BMSC group had significantly decreased LDH level,mRNA expression levels of NLRP3 and CASP1,and protein expres-sion level of CASP1.Conclusion:hBMSCs repair the immune in-jury of KGN cells induced by IFN-γ by restoring cell proliferation,inhibiting cell apoptosis,repairing endocrine function,and reducing pyroptosis.

Objective To analyze the status quo of exercise compliance in patients with chronic heart failure and its influencing factors.Methods Using convenient sampling method,425 patients with chronic heart failure in General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from August 2022 to February 2023 were se-lected as the study objects.General data questionnaire,exercise compliance scale,exercise self-efficacy scale,heart-activity fear tampa scale,Pittsburgh sleep quality index,perceptive social support scale and psychological experience scale were used to investigate and analyze the results.Results 415 effective questionnaires were collected,with a recovery rate of 97.65%.The total score of exercise compliance in patients with chronic heart failure was 88.94±17.12.The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that BMI,hospitalization times and fear of cardiac activity negatively affected patients'exercise compliance,while education level,exer-cise self-efficacy,perceptive social support and retirement positively affected patients'exercise compliance(P＜0.05).Conclusion The overall level of exercise compliance of patients with chronic heart failure is poor,and timely intervention measures should be taken.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To observe multiple locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) typing of Brucella isolated from Himalayan marmot in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of Qinghai Province, and to explore the relationship between the strains and strains previous isolated from Qinghai Province. Methods:Blood samples of Himalayan marmot were collected in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of Qinghai Province from March 2019 to October 2020. Pathogens were isolated and cultured from Brucella antibody positive samples identified by using the rose bengal test (RBT). Conventional biological methods and molecular biological methods (BCSP31-PCR and AMOS-PCR) were used for strain identification. At the same time, MLVA method was used to genotype the isolated strains, and cluster analysis was used to analyze the genetic relationships between the strains based on the genotype of 70 Brucella isolated from different hosts in Qinghai Province. Results:A total of 1 466 blood samples of Himalayan marmot were collected from Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Two strains of Brucella were isolated and cultured from 64 RBT-positive samples, named QH2013054 and QH2013062, respectively. They were identified as Brucella ovis biotype Ⅲ by conventional and molecular biological methods. The MLVA genotyping results showed that QH2013054 and QH2013062 were different at the Bru16 locus, indicating different MLVA genotypes. Cluster analysis showed that strain QH2013054 had the same MLVA genotype as 7 strains, among which 6 strains were from 3 farmers and 3 sheep from the same family in Gonghe County, and 1 strain was from a farmer in Menyuan Hui Autonomous County. The strain QH2013062 had the same MLVA genotype as 4 strains, including 3 strains from 3 farmers in Menyuan Hui Autonomous County and 1 strain from a farmer in Tu Autonomous County of Huzhu. Conclusions:The strains of Brucella isolated from Himalayan marmot in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau of Qinghai Province have the same MLVA genotype as some strains of Brucella isolated from humans and sheep in Qinghai Province. It is speculated that the host humans, sheep and Himalayan marmot in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau may have a common source of infection.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of DOS regimen in adjuvant chemotherapy after D2 radical resection for advanced gastric adenocarcinoma.Methods:The clinical data of 130 patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy after D2 radical resection for advanced gastric adenocarcinoma in Jincheng People's Hospital from January 2017 to January 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to treatment regimens, the patients were divided into DOS regimen chemotherapy group (DOS group, 63 cases) and SOX (oxaliplatin, S-1) regimen chemotherapy group (SOX group, 67 cases). The short-term efficacy and adverse reactions of the two groups were compared.Results:Due to the irregular treatment time, 2 cases in each group were removed. Finally, there were 61 cases in DOS group and 65 cases in SOX group. The 1-, 2- and 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) rates of the DOS group were 80.33%, 73.77% and 62.30%, and the DFS rates of the SOX group were 73.85%, 55.38% and 41.54%. The difference in DFS between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 5.43, P = 0.022). The 1-, 2- and 3-year overall survival (OS) rates of the DOS group were 93.44%, 80.33% and 70.50%, and the OS rates of the SOX group were 96.92%, 73.85% and 52.31%. The difference in OS between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.38, P = 0.045). There were no statistical differences in the incidence rates of grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, bone marrow suppression and fatigue between the two groups (all P > 0.05). There were no statistical differences in the incidence rates of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ nausea, vomiting and fatigue (both P > 0.05), but there were statistical significances in the incidence rates of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ diarrhea and bone marrow suppression (both P < 0.05). Conclusions:Adjuvant DOS regimen in the treatment of advanced gastric adenocarcinoma after D2 radical resection has good curative efficacy and can improve the survival of patients, and the adverse reactions can be tolerated.
