Objective: To analyze the relationship of gross motor skills and perceptual motor abilities with physical activity levels in preschool children in a Beijing kindergarten, so as to provide a reference for promoting the development of motor competence. Methods: From September 2018 to March 2021, preschoolers aged 4-5 years were selected using convenience sampling method from an urban kindergarten in Beijing. The Test of Gross Motor Development-Third Version(TGMD-3) was used to assess basic preschoolers s gross motor skills ( n =152). The Pictorial Scale of Perceived Movement Skill Competence(PMSC) was used to evaluate perceptual motor skills ( n =151). Accelerometers (Actigraph GT3X) were used to record physical activity levels ( n =52). Data were analyzed using one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Pearson correlation coefficients. Results: The mean scores for gross motor skills and perceptual motor abilities were (38.76±13.48) and (35.49±6.50), respectively. The moderate to vigorous physical activity(MVPA) level was(52.60±27.44) minutes per day. No statistically significant correlations were found between gross motor skills, perceptual motor abilities MVPA among boys, girls or the overall group ( r =-0.20 to 0.25, all P >0.05). However, Boys locomotor skills, overall children s locomotor skills, and boys gross motor skills were all positively correlated with MVPA( r =0.34-0.45, all P <0.05). Conclusion There is a correlation between locomotor skills and physical activity levels in 4 to 5-year-old children.

ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of the 21 confirmed monkeypox cases in a district of Chengdu City, and to provide scientific guidance for the prevention and control of subsequent monkeypox epidemics. MethodsData of confirmed monkeypox cases residing in this district were collected from the Disease Control and Prevention Information System of China. A retrospective descriptive epidemiological analysis was used to analyze the demographic, distributional and behavioral characteristics of the cases. ResultsThe first confirmed case of monkeypox was reported on July 5, 2023. Up to April 30, 2025, a total of 21 confirmed cases of monkeypox have been reported. All cases were male, with a mean age of (30.9±6.2) years. The highest proportion of cases(47.62%) was in the 30‒40 years age group. The majority were men who have sex with men (MSM) population (90.48%, 19/21). The results showed that 19.05% of cases were co-infected with HIV, and 19.05% had a history of syphilis infection. Within 21 days prior to symptom onset, 19 cases (90.48%) self-reported engaging in male-to-male sexual contact, among whom 10 cases (52.63%) reported having taken protective measures, while 9 cases (47.37%) did not take safety precautions. Thirteen cases (61.90%) had no travel history to areas with reported monkeypox cases during the 21 days before symptom onset. The predominant manifestation was exanthem (100%, 21/21), followed by fever (57.14%, 12/21) and lymphadenectasis (47.62%, 10/21). Among febrile cases, 50.00% (6/12) had low-grade fever (37.3‒38.0 ℃). All cases were identified through active medical consultation. The median interval from symptom onset to the first medical visit was 3 (2, 6) days, with a maximum interval of 14 days. The median interval from symptom onset to laboratory confirmation was 7 (5, 9) days. Six cases (28.57%) had two or more visits to the hospital, with bacterial infection being the primary initial diagnosis. ConclusionMonkeypox prevention and control efforts in a district of Chengdu City should prioritize MSM population and young and middle-aged adults aged 30 to <40 years. It is recommended to establish an integrated monkeypox epidemic prevention and control network by leveraging existing HIV/AIDS prevention and control network. Concurrently, accelerating the deployment of the national intelligent infectious disease monitoring and early warning front-end software will strengthen early detection capabilities and be beneficial for the overall effectiveness of epidemic prevention and control efforts.

ObjectiveTo investigate the pharmacological basis and mechanism of Qinlian Jiangxia decoction （QLJXD） in the treatment of glucose and lipid metabolism disorders. MethodsThe Encyclopedia of Traditional Chinese Medicine （ETCM） and the GeneCards database were used to predict the active components and targets of QLJXD in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM） combined with dyslipidemia. The key components and core targets were screened following protein-protein interaction （PPI） network， Gene Ontology （GO）， and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） analyses of the targets and then verified by molecular docking. SD rats were used to prepare the QLJXD-medicated serum， and a 3T3-L1 adipocyte model of insulin resistance （IR） was constructed with 1 μmol·L^-1 dexamethasone （DEX）. After intervention with four sera， cell glucose consumption and lipid metabolism levels were measured to screen the optimal action concentration of the medicated serum. A 3T3-L1 adipocyte model of IR with fatty acid-binding protein 4 （FABP4） overexpression was further constructed by plasmid transfection. Western blot and Real-time quantitative PCR （Real-time PCR） were employed to determine the expression of FABP4 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ （PPARG） at protein and mRNA levels， respectively， on the basis of which the regulatory effect of QLJXD on the FABP4/PPARG pathway was evaluated. ResultsNetwork pharmacology revealed that the key active components of QLJXD in treating T2DM complicated with dyslipidemia were baicalein， acacetin， and α-linolenic acid， and FABP1， FABP4， and PPARG were the core targets. Molecular docking showed good binding activity between the key components and core targets. QLJXD-medicated serum improved the glucose uptake capacity， increased insulin （INS）-stimulated glucose consumption （P<0.01）， and reduced total cholesterol （TC）， triglyceride （TG）， and free fatty acid （FFA） levels （P<0.01） in the 3T3-L1 adipocyte model of IR， with the medium-dose-medicated serum demonstrating the most potent effects. Overexpression of FABP4 impaired the glucose uptake capacity in the 3T3-L1 adipocyte model of IR and promoted intracellular accumulation of TC， TG， and FFA （P<0.05）. The medium-dose-medicated serum improved glucose uptake capacity and reduced the accumulation of TC， TG， and FFA （P<0.01）， while decreasing the protein and mRNA expression levels of FABP4 and concomitantly increasing the protein and mRNA levels of PPARG （P<0.05） in the 3T3-L1 adipocyte model of IR with FABP4 overexpression. ConclusionThe QLJXD-medicated serum has been evidenced to ameliorate glucose and lipid metabolism disorders in the 3T3-L1 adipocyte model of IR through multiple components， with the mechanism related to the FABP4/PPARG signaling pathway.

Objective: To explore the plasma metabonomic characteristics of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and turbid toxin accumulation syndrome. Methods: One hundred and three patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and turbid toxin accumulation syndrome were enrolled from November 2023 to February 2024 in the First Teaching Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and 54 healthy individuals were recruited. The general data of the two groups were analyzed, and the plasma metabolite content was detected using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-Orbitrap mass spectrometry. Construct an orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis model to screen metabolites with significant intergroup changes. The variable importance in projection≥ 1, |log2FC|>1, and P<0.05 were used as the criteria for the screening of differential metabolites. Annotate differential metabolites using internal databases and the human metabolome database, and perform pathway analysis using MetaboAnalyst website. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in gender and age between the two groups.Seventeen potential differential metabolites were identified. The D-4′-phosphopantothenate, 2, 6-dichloroindophenol, 4-methylphenol, hypoxanthine, 11, 12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acids, oleamide, 3-phenyllactic acid contents were higher in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and turbid toxin accumulation syndrome than in healthy individuals(P<0.05); 3-anisic acid, 3-iodo-octadecanoic acid, mebendazole, β-alanine, citric acid, trans-aconitic acid, geranyl diphosphate, lysophosphatidylcholine(18∶2), phosphatidylethanolamine(18∶1), and caprolactam contents were lower in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and turbid toxin accumulation syndrome than in healthy individuals(P<0.05). Ten metabolic pathways were identified, including the key metabolic pantothenate and coenzyme A biosynthesis pathways. Conclusion Metabolic differences were observed between patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and turbid toxin accumulation syndrome and healthy individuals, and the underlying mechanism may involve the pantothenate and coenzyme A biosynthesis pathways, jointly mediated by D-4′-phosphopantothenate and β-alanine.

Objective: There were associations between emotional abuse and neglect (EAN) and depression, but few studies had tested potential mechanisms underlying these relationships. We aimed to provide insights on how (the mediation role of neuroticism), and under what conditions (the moderator role of psychological resilience), led to a higher level of depression. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study that used a random cluster sampling method. We randomly selected 3,993 participants from four junior middle schools in northern city of China. Participants were asked to complete four self-reported questionnaires, including the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, Children Depression Inventory-Short Form, Chinese Big Five Personality Inventory Brief Version, and Chinese Resilience Scale. Results: The results showed that neuroticism mediated the associations between EAN and depression. In addition, the mediating effect of neuroticism was moderated by psychological resilience (p<0.05). Conclusion EAN and neuroticism could have an adverse impact on depression, and psychological resilience could alleviate these negative effects as a moderator. Our model suggested psychological resilience could be a particularly effective intervention point for victims of EAN.

ObjectiveTo explore the construction and evaluation methods of a rat model of acute myocardial infarction（AMI） with Qi and Yin deficiency syndrome established by sleep deprivation combined with coronary artery ligation. MethodsThirty-six SD rats were randomly divided into a normal group（n=6）， a myocardial infarction group（model A group， n=10）， an acute sleep deprivation+myocardial infarction group（model B group， n=10）， and a chronic sleep deprivation+myocardial infarction group（model C group， n=10） according to body weight. Rats in the normal group were not treated， rats in the model A group underwent only ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery， rats in the model B group were sleep deprived for 96 h and then underwent ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery， and rats in the model C group were sleep deprived for an additional 48 h each week with a 24 h rest period as one cycle for three weeks on the basis of the model B group. After coronary artery ligation in the model C group， the first week was defined as the starting point of the first sleep deprivation cycle， and indexes were tested weekly for rats in each group for 3 weeks. Electrocardiogram was used to determine the ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery in rats， and small animal echocardiography was used to evaluate the cardiac function. The levels of serum creatine kinase（CK）， creatine kinase isoenzyme（CK-MB）， lactate dehydrogenase（LDH）， cardiac troponin T（cTnT）， interleukin-18（IL-18）， and tumor necrosis factor-α（TNF-α） were detected by biochemical assays， and hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining was used to evaluate the pathological changes of myocardial tissue in rats. The syndrome indicators of Qi and Yin deficiency were evaluated by general state and body weight， grip strength， facial temperature， paw temperature， rectal temperature， salivary flow rate， open field test， tongue color［red（R）， green（G）， and blue（B）］ values， pulse amplitude changes， and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） for the detection of expression levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate（cAMP）， cyclic guanosine monophosphate（cGMP）， rat serum corticotropin-releasing factor（CRF）， adrenocorticotropic hormone（ACTH）， triiodothyronine（T3）， tetraiodothyronine（T4）， and corticosterone（CORT） in serum. ResultsIn terms of disease indicators， compared with the normal group， the ST segment of the electrocardiogram in each model group was significantly elevated， the echocardiographic parameters were decreased， the contents of myocardial enzymes and inflammatory factors were increased（P<0.01）， and the myocardial tissue in the infarcted area was significantly damaged. In terms of syndrome indicators， compared with the normal group， the body weight of rats in the model B and C groups decreased at each time point， the grip strength of each model group decreased， the total distance traveled and the number of entries into the center in the open field test decreased， the immobility time increased， the facial and rectal temperatures of rats in the model B and C groups increased， the salivary flow rate of each model group decreased， the tongue color was bright red or light， the tongue body was dry or smooth like a mirror， lacking of moisture sensation， the R， G and B values of the tongue surface increased， the pulse amplitude changes decreased， and the contents of T3 and T4 increased， while the expressions of cAMP， CRF， ACTH and CORT in the model B and C groups increased（P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionContinuous sleep deprivation for 96 h in a multi-platform method combined with coronary artery ligation can construct a rat model of AMI with Qi and Yin deficiency syndrome， and the syndrome manifestations can be maintained for 3 weeks.

ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility， evaluation methods and metabolic differences of high-fat diet（HFD） combined with myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury（MIRI） to establish a rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion with phlegm and blood stasis blocking collaterals syndrome（PBSBCS）. MethodsThirty-two SD rats were randomly divided into the sham operation， HFD， MIRI， and MIRI+HFD groups. Rats in the sham operation and MIRI groups were fed a standard diet（regular chow）， while the HFD and MIRI+HFD groups received a HFD for 10 weeks. Rats in the MIRI and MIRI+HFD groups underwent myocardial ischemia-reperfusion surgery， while the sham operation group underwent only thread placement without ligation. Cardiac function was assessed via small-animal echocardiography， including left ventricular ejection fraction（EF）， left ventricular fractional shortening（FS）， cardiac output（CO）， and stroke volume（SV）. Serum levels of creatine kinase（CK）， CK-MB， triglyceride（TG）， total cholesterol（TC）， high-density lipoprotein cholesterol（HDL-C）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol（LDL-C）， lactate dehydrogenase（LDH）， endothelin-1（ET-1）， endothelial nitric oxide synthase（eNOS）， tumor necrosis factor-α（TNF-α）， interleukin-18（IL-18）， oxidized LDL（ox-LDL）， and cardiac troponin T（cTnT） were measured by biochemical assays and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）. Myocardial histopathology was evaluated via hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining， while myocardial infarction and no-reflow area were assessed using 2，3，5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride（TTC）， Evans blue， and thioflavin staining. Changes in syndrome characteristics［body weight， tongue surface red-green-blue ［RGB］ values， and pulse amplitude］ of PBSBCS were recorded. Serum differential metabolites were analyzed by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS）. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group， the HFD and MIRI+HFD groups showed significant increases in body weight（P<0.01）， RGB values and pulse amplitude decreased in the HFD， MIRI and MIRI+HFD groups， TC， TG， LDL-C and ox-LDL levels increased in the HFD and MIRI+HFD groups， while HDL-C decreased. Blood perfusion peak time and myocardial no-reflow area increased， serum eNOS level decreased， and CK-MB， LDH， and cTnT activities increased in the HFD， MIRI and MIRI+HFD groups（P<0.05， P<0.01）. Whole blood viscosity was increased in the HFD group at medium shear rate， and in the MIRI and MIRI+HFD groups at low， medium and high shear rates（P<0.05， P<0.01）. Platelet aggregation rate increased in the MIRI and MIRI+HFD groups， accompanied by elevated ET-1， TNF-α， and IL-18 levels， reduced cardiac function indices， expanded myocardial no-reflow and infarction areas， and increased serum CK， CK-MB， LDH， and cTnT activities（P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the MIRI group， the HFD and MIRI+HFD groups showed significant increase in body weight， TC， TG， LDL-C and ox-LDL levels， and significant decrease in HDL-C content（P<0.01）. The MIRI+HFD group showed decrease in RGB values and pulse amplitude， and an increase in whole blood viscosity， platelet aggregation， blood perfusion peak time， myocardial no-reflow and infarction areas， elevated ET-1， TNF-α and IL-18 levels， decreased eNOS content， EF and SV， increased serum CK， CK-MB and cTnT activities， and worsened myocardial pathology（P<0.05）. Compared with the HFD group， the MIRI+HFD group showed similar aggravated trends（P<0.05， P<0.01）. Metabolomics results showed that 34 potential biomarkers involving 13 common metabolic pathways were identified in the MIRI+HFD group compared with the sham operation group. ConclusionThe MIRI group resembles blood stasis syndrome in hemodynamics and myocardial injury， and the HFD group mirrors phlegm-turbidity syndrome in lipid profiles and tongue characteristics. While the MIRI+HFD group aligns with PBSBCS in comprehensive indices， effectively simulating clinical features of coronary heart disease（CHD）， which can be used for the evaluation of the pathological mechanism and pharmacodynamics of CHD with PBSBCS.

ObjectiveTo explore the optimal construction method and the biological basis for establishing a mouse model of ischemic heart disease（IHD） with Qi and Yin deficiency syndrome by intraperitoneal injection of isoproterenol（ISO）. MethodsA total of 144 male C57BL/6J mice were randomly assigned into three normal groups and nine model groups according to body mass， with 12 mice in each group. The model groups 1， 4， and 7 were administered ISO via intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1 for four consecutive days， the model groups 2， 5， and 8 received ISO at a dose of 10 mg·kg^-1·d^-1 for seven consecutive days， while the model groups 3， 6， and 9 were given ISO at a dose of 15 mg·kg^-1·d^-1 for 14 consecutive days. The normal groups were administered an equivalent volume of normal saline via intraperitoneal injection. After the modeling process， body mass， 24-hour food and water intake， grip strength， and spontaneous activity of the mice were measured. Cardiac function was assessed using echocardiography， the serum levels of norepinephrine（NE）， cyclic adenosine monophosphate（cAMP）， and cyclic guanosine monophosphate（cGMP） were determined via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）. The content of adenosine triphosphate（ATP） in myocardial tissue was measured by biochemical analysis， while histopathological changes in myocardial tissue were observed via hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining. An orthogonal experimental design was applied for intuitive analysis and variance analysis to screen the optimal modeling conditions of the mouse model of IHD with Qi and Yin deficiency syndrome. A data-dependent acquisition（DDA） proteomic technique was employed to quantitatively detect differentially expressed proteins in myocardial tissue between the optimal model group and the normal group. And bioinformatics analysis was conducted to explore the potential biological mechanisms underlying the Qi and Yin deficiency model of IHD. ResultsOrthogonal results showed that the injection cycle had a great influence on model establishment， and the optimal modeling condition was identified as intraperitoneal injection of ISO at 15 mg·kg^-1·d^-1 for 14 consecutive days. Under this condition， compared with the normal group， the model group demonstrated significant reductions in body mass， food intake， water intake， grip strength， total distance and average speed of exercise， ejection fraction（EF）， fractional shortening（FS）， serum levels of NE and cGMP， and myocardial ATP content（P<0.01）， while immobility time， cAMP level， and the cAMP/cGMP value were significantly increased（P<0.05， P<0.01）. HE staining results revealed that myocardial tissue in the model group had disordered cell arrangement， inflammatory cell infiltration， myocardial fiber rupture， and fibrous tissue proliferation. Proteomic analysis identified 141 differentially expressed proteins in the model group compared with the normal group， with 52 up-regulated and 89 down-regulated. Gene Ontology（GO） functional annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes（KEGG） pathway enrichment analysis indicated that the cellular components（CC） were mainly related to mitochondria and the inner mitochondrial membrane， the biological processes（BP） were associated with complement activation， platelet activation， and responses to metal ions， suggesting that the potential functional pathways involved the complement and coagulation cascade， as well as porphyrin metabolism. ConclusionContinuous intraperitoneal injection of ISO at a dose of 15 mg·kg^-1 for 14 days successfully establishes a mouse model of IHD with Qi and Yin deficiency syndrome， and the underlying mechanisms may be related to the regulation of iron ions by complement C3， C5 and Cp， and plays a role in the regulation through the BP of complement activation， platelet activation， and responses to metal ions， and the signaling pathways of the complement and coagulation cascade and porphyrin metabolism.
