Cytoglobin(Cygb)is a recently discov-ered astrocyte specific globin that is widely distrib-uted in mammalian visceral organs such as the lung,heart,spleen,liver,pancreas,stomach,small intestine,kidney,neuron,and bone tissue.It plays an important role in clearing reactive oxygen spe-cies,nitric oxide and nitrite signal transduction,al-leviating oxidative stress,anti-fibrosis,regulation of cell apoptosis and treatment of cancer,etc.It is worth noting that the anti-fibrosis role of Cygb has attracted increasing attention in recent years.The existing research has involved various fibrotic dis-eases such as the liver,pancreas,kidney,spleen,etc.,especially in the study of liver fibrosis,which has made great progress.This article system re-views the role of Cygb in various fibrotic diseases,with a focus on its mechanism of alleviating oxida-tive stress.Although the application of Cygb in fi-brotic diseases is still in its infancy and the underly-ing mechanisms still require extensive research and exploration,there is no doubt that Cygb can serve as a promising therapeutic target,with the poten-tial to be widely used in the prevention and treat-ment of fibrotic diseases.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Guben Quyu Jiedu prescription in treating nocturnal hypoxemia of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） combined with Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome （ OSAHS ） （deficiency of lung， spleen and kidney with blood stasis and toxicity）. MethodsThe paper used a forward-looking， random double-blind， placebo-controlled design method to select 96 patients with COPD combined with OSAHS， and their traditional Chinese medicines （TCM） syndrome differentiation was deficiency of lung， spleen and kidney with blood stasis and toxicity. These patients were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group， with 48 cases in each group. Based on conventional Western medicine treatment， the observation group was treated with Guben Quyu Jiedu prescription and the control group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine placebo. Both courses of treatment were 90 days. Then the paper compared the changes in minimum pulse oxygen saturation （SpO₂） during the night， apnea index （AHI）， OSAHS efficacy evaluation， TCM syndrome efficacy evaluation， and TCM symptom score before and after treatment between the two groups. ResultsThere were 5 withdrawals in the observation group and 8 withdrawals in the control group， so 43 cases in the observation group and 40 cases in the control group completed the trial. Compared with the condition before treatment， the minimum SpO₂ during the night and AHI in the observation group were significantly improved at night （P<0.01） and were better than those in the control group （P<0.01）. OSAHS efficacy in the observation group was better than in the control group （χ²=7.085， P<0.05）. In terms of TCM syndrome efficacy， the total effective rate was 81.40% （35/43） in the observation group， significantly higher than that in the control group， which was 15.00% （6/40） （χ²=36.78， P<0.01）. The TCM symptom scores of the two groups were improved compared with the condition before treatment， and the effect of the two groups was similar in the four main symptoms of snoring， choking， lethargy， and cough. However， the observation group was better than the control group in 10 details such as dizziness， headache， chest tightness， chest pain， wheezing， dry mouth， and thirst （P<0.05）. ConclusionUsing Guben Quyu Jiedu prescription combined with conventional Western medicine can treat COPD combined with OSAHS hypoxemia at night （deficiency of lung， spleen and kidney with blood stasis and toxicity）. In this way， the minimum pulse oxygen saturation （SpO₂） of patients， the level of disease control， and the quality of life of patients can be improved， and the clinical symptoms can be relieved.

Bronchial asthma is a heterogeneous chronic inflammatory airway disease.Its pathogenesis is closely associated with abnormal immune responses within T-helper(Th)cell subsets,characterized by excessive effector Th cell activation and impaired immunosuppression by regulatory T cells.The concept of natural harmony of yin-yang epitomizes the understanding of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)of the body's inherent capacity for autonomous regulation and homeostasis maintenance.Building upon the description in the Inner Canon of Yellow Emperor regarding asthma as"internal yin qi contention,external yang qi interference,"this study aims to bridge the TCM macro-level etiology and pathogenesis of"yin-yang disharmony"with the Western micro-level mechanism of loss of immune homeostasis control.The core pathogenesis of bronchial asthma involves yin-yang disorder in the body,leading to internal-external imbalance.Yang deficiency with a hidden yin pathogen and intermingled phlegm with blood stasis in the lungs is the root of pathogenesis.Pathogenic invading qi and yang hyperactivity induce bronchial asthma.These align with the Western medical concepts of imbalanced immunometabolic self-stabilization and defective immunotolerance.Based on the above content,corresponding therapeutic principles are proposed according to the disease stage.In the acute phase,dispelling wind pathogens and relieving cough are recommended.In chronic persistent asthma,calming yang disturbance and resolving the yin conflict are emphasized.In the clinical remission phase,kidney yang should be warmed and invigorated,thereby consolidating body resistance.The corresponding treatment methods are implemented based on the above content.In the acute phase,self-made Mahuang Qingyang Decoction is administered to dispel wind pathogens and ventilate lung qi.In chronic persistent asthma,self-made Qingfei Xiegan Decoction is administered to clear liver-fire and purge the lungs,self-made Xuanfu Qingwei Decoction is employed to harmonize the stomach for descending adverse yang qi,modified Suzi Jiangqi Decoction is applied to conduct deficient yang back to its source,and modified Erchen Decoction and Taohong Siwu Decoction are utilized to expel phlegm and blood stasis.In the clinical remission phase,modified Sijunzi Decoction,modified Mahuang Fuzi Xixin Decoction,and Erxian Decoction are administered to invigorate the spleen and kidney.These approaches ward off yang disturbance and resolve yin contention to restore the body's normal immune homeostasis.The ultimate therapeutic aim is to achieve a state of natural harmony of yin-yang,thereby ceasing wheezing and coughing spontaneously,and to provide new ideas for clinical treatment of bronchial asthma.

BackgroundSleep disorder can adversely affect human physical and mental health， with important implications for socioeconomic development. And higher vocational college students are subject to various pressures and stimuli exerted by academic studies， job seeking and family socioeconomic status， which may contribute to the onset insomnia symptom or sleep disorder. ObjectiveTo discuss the sleep status and influencing factors among higher vocational college students， and to provide references for improving their sleep status. MethodsIn January and February， 2022， a stratified random sampling method was utilized to enroll 3 300 students from five higher vocational colleges in Wenjiang district of Chengdu city. All the participants were assessed using Insomnia Severity Index （ISI）， Patient Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item （PHQ-9） and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 （GAD-7）. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to test the correlation of ISI with PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores， and the Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the influencing factors of insomnia symptom in higher vocational college students. ResultInsomnia symptom was detected in 81.90% （2 497 / 3 300） of higher vocational college students. The detection rate of insomnia symptom among vocational college students yielded statistical difference in terms of gender， family socioeconomic status， being an only child or having siblings， degree of psychological pressure exerted by academic studies or job seeking， amount of hours spent on Internet per day， frequency of physical exercise， and the presence or absence of anxiety symptom and depression symptom （χ²=21.032， 22.172， 8.983， 75.939， 36.781， 32.350， 54.512， 86.561， P<0.01 or 0.05）. Among higher vocational college students， ISI score was positively correlated with GAD-7 and PHQ-9 scores （r=0.620， 0.714， P<0.01）， and GAD-7 score was positively correlated with PHQ-9 score （r=0.824， P<0.01）. Gender， family socioeconomic status， degree of psychological pressure exerted by academic studies or job seeking， amount of hours spent on Internet per day， frequency of physical exercise， and the presence or absence of anxiety symptom and depression symptom were effective factors in predicting the insomnia symptom in higher vocational college students （P<0.01 or 0.05）. ConclusionFemale gender， average and below average family socioeconomic status， moderate-to-severe degree of psychological pressure exerted by academic studies or job seeking， spending 2~5 h， 5~7 h or >7 h on Internet per day， inadequate physical exercise and presence of depressive symptom are the risk factors for insomnia symptom in higher vocational college students.［Funded by Sichuan Provincial Primary Health Development Research Center in 2022， North Sichuan Medical College （number， SWFZ22-C-89）］

ObjectiveTo investigate effect of conducting training of autism spectrum disorder （ASD） early screening skill on improving the ability to early identify ASD of medical staffs in primary care hospitals. MethodsIn September 2021， the training of ASD early screening skills was carried out for medical staffs from 20 primary care hospitals in Chengdu. After training， the training effect was evaluated. The numbers of referrals from primary care hospitals to superior hospitals， confirmed ASD as well as their average diagnostic age of children with ASD before and after training were used as evaluation indicators. ResultsAfter training， the number of children with suspected ASD referred by primary care hospitals was more than that before training ［（16.65±11.60） vs. （3.40±2.23）， t=5.431， P<0.01］， the number of children diagnosed with ASD was more than that before training［（6.85±4.93） vs. （2.45±1.67）， t=4.171， P<0.01］， and the differences were statistically significant. As for the diagnosed age of ASD children， after training， the average age was lower than that before training ［（34.95±11.67） vs. （42.2±14.64）， t=-2.553， P=0.019］. ConclusionTraining of ASD early screening skills for medical staffs in primary care hospitals may help to improve their ability to early screening ASD children.

Objective To analyze the relationship between BMI, physical activity, resting heart rate and diabetes mellitus. Methods A total of 423 patients with diabetes admitted to the Department of endocrinology of our hospital from August 2017 to August 2020 were investigated by questionnaire and physical signs were examined, and the correlation between BMI, physical activity, resting heart rate and diabetes was analyzed. Results FPG, 2 h PG and HbA1c were positively correlated with resting heart rate, BMI and physical activity (P < 0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that BMI (OR = 2.121), elevated resting heart rate (OR = 1.619) and less physical activity (OR = 0.711) were risk factors for diabetes. Conclusion The increase of BMI and resting heart rate and the decrease of physical activity will increase the risk of diabetes. It is particularly important to prevent the increase of BMI and resting heart rate and increase the physical labor appropriately.

Objective To identify the pathogen and origins of 286 clustered cases of rotavirus infection in Hohhot, and to provide reliable basis for formulating preventive measures of rotavirus infection outbreaks. Methods Epidemiological investigation was conducted on 286 rotavirus outbreaks involving 8,560 cases in Hohhot from December 2017 to December 2020. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the genotypes, and the related risk factors were analyzed. Results Of the 286 rotavirus outbreaks, 165 were clustered outbreaks, and the duration was 5 to 8 days, with an average of (7.05±1.06) days, presenting temporal and spatial clustering. The causes of the outbreaks included rotavirus contamination in drinking water, improper management of household infections, and inadequate hospital preventive measures. The total number of cases was 8,560, and the positive rate of rotavirus was 47.17% (4 038/8 560). Group A and B rotavirus strains were detected in vomit or stool samples. Rotavirus infection in children was mostly caused by group A rotavirus (100%) and in adults by group B rotavirus (97.59%), and the common symptoms included diarrhea, vomiting and fever. The infection rate of children (87.67%, 3,540/4,038) was significantly higher than that of adults (12.33%, 4,98/4,038) (χ²=115.520, P<0.05). Rotavirus infection occurred most frequently in autumn and winter. Conclusion Clustered outbreaks account for most of rotavirus infection events, and children are the key targets of prevention and treatment. Rotavirus screening should be strengthened.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence and characteristics of depressive symptoms among urban elderly six years after Lushan earthquake in Ya'an， so as to provide references for the mental health interventions for elderly following catastrophic stressful life events. MethodsFrom March to April 2019， a multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was adopted to enroll 885 urban elderly people aged 60 and above in Ya'an. A self-compiled questionnaire was used to collect the general demographic information， health-related and disaster-related information， meantime， the elderly was assessed using Geriatric Depression Scale （GDS-30）. Thereafter， univariate and multivariate Logistic regression were applied to explore the influencing factors of depressive symptoms in urban elderly. ResultsA total of 783 valid questionnaires were collected， with a questionnaires response rate of 88.47%. Depressive symptoms were detected in 161 cases （20.56%）. The prevalence of depression showed statistical differences among the elderly of different gender， age， marital status， family relationship， monthly per capita household income， physical exercise status， health status， self-care ability， sleep status and disaster-affected degree （P<0.05 or 0.01）. Logistic regression analysis showed that the urban elderly of the female gender （OR=1.552， P=0.040）， monthly per capita household income of 2000~3000 yuan （OR=6.982， P<0.01）， monthly per capita household income≤2000 yuan （OR=6.857， P<0.01）， lack of physical exercise （OR=1.693， P<0.01）， being less capable of self-care （OR=3.838， P<0.01）， being incapable of self-care （OR=8.547， P<0.01）， complicating multiple curable diseases （OR=4.892， P<0.01） and complicating refractory chronic diseases （OR=5.657， P=0.031） were at high risk of depressive symptoms. The risk of depressive symptoms among the divorced or widowed elderly was greater than that among married elderly （OR=0.063， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe prevalence of depressive symptoms is relatively high among the urban elderly six years after Lushan earthquake in Ya'an， moreover， female gender， low monthly per capita household income， lack of physical exercise， being incapable of self-care and poor health status are risk factors affecting the depressive symptom， while being married is a protective factor.
