ObjectiveIn order to find a fast odor-based method for the identification of sulfur fumigated Gastrodiae Rhizoma, an ultra-fast gas phase electronic nose technology was used to identify the odors of different degrees of sulfur fumigated Gastrodiae Rhizoma decoction pieces. MethodHeracles NEO ultra-fast gas phase electronic nose was employed to collect gas chromatograms of unsulfured and sulfured with different degrees of Gastrodiae Rhizoma decoction pieces, gas chromatograms were performed under programmed temperature (initial temperature of 40 ℃, 0.2 ℃·s-1 to 60 ℃, and then 4 ℃·s-1 to 250 ℃), the sample volume was 5 mL, the incubation temperature was 65 ℃ and incubation time was 35 min. Kovats retention index and the AroChemBase database were used for qualitative analysis, and stoichiometric analysis was performed on this basis. Principal component analysis (PCA), discriminant factor analysis (DFA) and partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) models were established to identify the Gastrodiae Rhizoma decoction pieces with different degrees of sulfur fumigation. ResultAccording to the comparative analysis of AroChemBase database, there were significant differences in the odor characteristics of sulfur fumigated and non-sulfur fumigated Gastrodiae Rhizoma, cyclopentane, acetone and heptane might be the odor components to distinguish the degree of sulfur fumigation in Gastrodiae Rhizoma decoction pieces. The identification index of PCA model was 81, the accumulative discriminant index of the discriminating factors was 92.09% in DFA model, the supervisory model interpretation rate of PLS-DA model was 0.963 and the predictive ability parameter was 0.956, indicating that PCA, DFA and PLS-DA models could well distinguish Gastrodiae Rhizoma decoction pieces with different sulfur fumigation degrees. ConclusionHeracles NEO ultra-fast gas phase electronic nose can be used as a rapid method to identify and distinguish Gastrodiae Rhizoma decoction pieces with different levels of sulfur fumigation. Meanwhile, it can provide a rapid, simple and green method and technology for identification of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces by sulfur fumigation.

Objective:To explore the reliability and validity of the 10-item Connor-Davidson resilience scale (CD-RISC-10) in Chinese community-dwelling adults.Methods:Using multistage stratified sampling, totally 2 051 community-dwelling adults were selected and they were investigated by the 10-item Connor-Davidson resilience scale, the center for epidemiological studies depression scale (CES-D) and 10-item Kessler psychological distress scale (K10). The exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used to evaluate the CD-RISC-10 by SPSS 22.0 and AMOS 22.0.A parallel analysis and Velicer's minimum average partial (MAP) test were also supplemented to confirm the EFA-derived structure of the scale.Results:The Cronbach α coefficient of the CD-RISC-10 was 0.94, and the Spearman-Brown reliability was 0.89.The total correlation of the questions ranged from 0.74 to 0.81 (all P<0.01). The exploratory factor analysis retained its single dimension, which can explain 63.24% of the total variance.Confirmatory factor analysis revealed the single factor model fit data adequately ( χ2/ df=4.596, CFI=0.967, TLI=0.973, RMSEA=0.065). The resilience(27.02±13.50) was negatively correlated with depression(9.75±5.24) and psychological distress (19.23±6.37)( r=-0.32, -0.35, both P<0.01). Conclusion:The CD-RISC-10 scale has acceptable reliability and validity, with using easily and conveniently.Therefore, it is an effective tool for measuring the resilience of the community-dwelling adults.

Objective To understand the current prevalence of clonorchiasis in Jiangxi Province. Methods A survey was performed according to the scheme of the 3rd Principal Human Parasites of Jiangxi Province. Based on the ecological regions,a stratified cluster sampling method was applied by the economic and geographic situation. In rural areas,the investigation of C. si?nensis was carried out together with the soil?transmitted helminths investigation,and in the urban areas,the random cluster sam?pling method was applied for the C. sinensis investigation. There were 92 survey sites from 32 counties. The eggs of C. sinensis in stool were examined by Kato?Katz technique,and health knowledge was also investigated by questionnaires in some people at the same time. Results A total of 23 606 sample residents were investigated,and 138 were found infected with C. sinensis, with the infection rate of 0.58%. Light infection was found in most of them. Totally 124 C. sinensis infected persons focused in Xinfeng County,and only a few of infected people scattered in the other counties. In Xinfeng County,851 residents were investi?gated. Among them,the infected people were found in all the age groups except the 0?year age group. The highest infection rate appeared in the 70? years group(24.00%). The male infection rate was 20.29%,which was higher than that of the female (6.25%),showing a statistically significant difference(P<0.01). The infection rate was highest in the population who received high school or technical secondary school education(31.48%). For the occupation distribution,the infection rate was highest in public officers(39.39%). The questionnaire survey showed that the infection rate in the populations in Xinfeng County who had the history of eating raw fish or raw shrimp was 33.15%. Conclusions The distribution of C. sinensis infection presents a region?al aggregation in Xinfeng County,but in other areas,the distribution is sporadic. It is necessary to continue to carry out the para?sitic disease screening,and in Xinfeng County,it is necessary to strengthen the comprehensive prevention and control interven?tion.
