With the aging of the global population， osteoporosis （OP） is becoming a major public health concern worldwide. Currently， the commonly used anti-osteoporosis drugs in clinical practice have limited application due to many side effects. Therefore， developing more effective and safer strategies for the prevention and treatment of OP has become a research focus in this field. In recent years， the clinical efficacy and advantages of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in treating OP have been gradually recognized. With the deepening pharmacological research on TCM for OP prevention and treatment， it is found that the active ingredients of Scutellaria baicalensis can promote bone formation or inhibit bone resorption by regulating signaling pathways， including Wnt/β-catenin， osteoprotegerin （OB）/receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand （RANKL）/RANK （OPG/RANKL/RANK）， and bone morphogenetic protein 2 （BMP-2）/Smad， mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， and mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR）. However， existing research on active ingredients of S. baicalensis for OP treatment is scattered， making it difficult for scholars to gain a systematic understanding of its research and application. This review summarized the literature on the active ingredients of S. baicalensis in OP treatment worldwide， clarified their mechanisms of action， and explored some issues， providing references for the integration of TCM in OP prevention and treatment.

Objective To translate the Maternal Childbirth Fatigue Perception Questionnaire(MCFQ)into Chinese and examine its reliability and validity among women undergoing vaginal deliv-ery.Methods Following the Brislin translation model,the MCFQ was translated,back-translated,culturally adapted and pre-tested to develop a Chinese version.By using the convenience sampling method,574 parturients were selected for a questionnaire survey from January to April 2024,and the reliability and validity of the Chinese questionnaire were evaluated.Results The Chinese version of MCFQ consisted of 3 dimensions and 13 items,namely physical fatigue(7 items),perceived fatigue(3 items)and emotional fatigue(3 items).The item-level content validity index ranged from0.813 to 1.000,and the scale-level content validity index was 0.938.The overall Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.870,and the split-half reliability coefficient was 0.848.Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated that the question naire had a good fit.Conclusion The Chinese version of MCFQ has good reliability and validity and can be used as an effective tool to assess the fatigue level of parturients during the delivery process.It is helpful for clinical medical staff to optimize the management of the la-bor process,improve the quality of delivery,and ensure the safety of mothers and infants.

Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate the hearing performance of a new transcutaneous bone conduction hearing aid.Methods One hundred and nine patients with conductive or mix hearing loss and eleven patients with single sided sensorineural hearing loss from four tertiary referral centers were tested under unaided and aided conditions with the sound processors on testbands.Free field test was performed to obtain the hearing thresholds and speech recognition thresholds in quiet.Adverse events were also documented by a self-reported questionnaire.Results ①Conductive or mixed hearing loss patients:for aged≥6 yrs subgroup,the bone conduction PTA average of aided sides was 18.55±8.99 dB HL.For aged<6 yrs subgroup, the bone conduction ABR hearing threshold average was 18.33±8.36 dB HL.②Statistically significant improvements in free field hearing thresholds were seen when compared aided hearing with unaided outcomes.The average PTA (pure tone average in free field) was measured at 32.21±10.00, 37.33±14.15, and 34.38±10.76 dB HL respectively in conductive or mixed hearing loss aged≥6 yrs subgroup;aged<6 yrs subgroup and SSD subgroup.③In aided situations;speech recognition thresholds in quiet were significantly better compared to unaided situation in patients aged≥6yrs.④None of patients presented adverse events related to the devices.Conclusion The Sophono bone conduction hearing aid has satisfactory hearing performance and can be considered an alternative device for patients with conductive or mix hearing loss or with SSD.

Objective To observe the influence of two feeding ways m coma patients at gastrointestinal tract complications.Methods Seventy patients were assigned randomly to two groups according to different feeding ways:entogastric continuing infusion (observation group,n=35) and entogastric manualinfusion (control group,n=35) from June 2006 to May 2007,and observed the ratio of gastrointestinal tract complications in two groups.Results Different feeding ways had significantly correlated with the complications of gastrointestinal tract.The ratio of gastrointestinal tract complications in observation group was lower (20.00%)than that in control group (42.86%).There was statistically significant difference in two groups,P＜0.05.Conclusion The ratio of gastrointestinal tract complications could obvious reduce in entogastric nutrition continuing infusion in coma patients.
