Osteoporosis is a common senile bone metabolism disease， clinically characterized by decreased bone mass， destruction of bone microstructure， increased bone fragility， and easy fracture. It tends to occur in the elderly and postmenopausal women， seriously threatening the quality of life and physical and mental health of the elderly. At present， the treatment of osteoporosis is mainly based on oral western medicines， such as calcium， Vitamin D， and bisphosphonates. Still， there are drawbacks such as a long medication cycle and many adverse reactions. In recent years， due to the advantages of multi-component， multi-pathway， and multi-target， some traditional Chinese medicines and effective ingredients can regulate the osteogenic and osteoclastic differentiation process in both directions and are widely used in the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. Hippophae rhamnoides is a commonly used herbal medicine， and its fruits are rich in flavonoids， polyphenols， fatty acids， vitamins， and trace elements， which have been proven to have a good anti-osteoporosis effect. Isorhamnetin is the main effective ingredient of Hippophae rhamnoides fruits， which has many pharmacological effects such as anti-inflammation， anti-oxidative stress， anti-aging， and anti-tumor. Studies have shown that isorhamnetin can participate in the regulation of bone metabolism and has a good anti-osteoporosis effect. However， the pharmacological effects and related mechanisms of isorhamnetin against osteoporosis have not been systematically summarized. Therefore， this paper reviewed the pharmacological effects and related mechanisms of isorhamnetin against osteoporosis by referring to relevant literature to provide more basis for the development and application of isorhamnetin.

Narrative is the cornerstone of interpersonal relationships and life safety. However， its important value in daily life， school education， health management， personal happiness， career development， and other aspects has been ignored. The narrative ecology of families， schools， hospitals， workplaces， and elderly care institutions is worrying， the narrative connection between parent-child and intergenerational is broken， the narrative nature of adolescents is ignored， the narrative demands of patients are neglected， narrative relationships in the workplace are indifferent， and the narrative capital of the elderly is idle. These issues have resulted in serious social problems， such as depression and suicide among adolescents， conflicts between doctors and patients， workplace and life burnout among middle-aged people， and the inability of the elderly to achieve healthy aging， which have become a “stumbling block” to the realization of holistic health. Advocating the construction of narrative ecology and interpersonal narrative connections is an important measure of achieving holistic health. Taking the “narrative concept” as the overall framework， and based on the research， education， and practice carried out by the Alliance of Narrative Medicine in Higher Education Institutions， this paper proposed that actively build China’s narrative system of life and health， to enable narrative play an active and dynamic role in the construction of narrative ecology in different spaces， such as the families， the schools， the hospitals， the workplaces， and the elderly care institutions， as well as practically improve the quality of life of the people.

ObjectiveTo investigate the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and the level of serum homocysteine (Hcy) in association with the incidence of stroke in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. MethodsBased on the chronic disease risk factor surveillance cohort in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, excluding those with stroke in baseline survey, T2DM patients who joined the cohort from January 2016 to October 2020 were selected as the research subjects. During the follow-up period, a total of 318 new-onset ischemic stroke patients were selected as the case group, and a total of 318 individuals matched by gender without stroke were selected as the control group. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to adjust for confounding factors and explore the serum TyG index and the Hcy biochemical indicator in association with the risk of stroke. ResultsThe Cox proportional hazards regression results showed that after adjusting for confounding factors, the risk of stroke in T2DM patients with 10 μmol·L⁻¹-¹ and Hcy>15 μmol·L⁻¹ was 1.532 times (95%CI: 1.017‒2.309 times, P=0.041) and 1.738 times (95%CI: 1.119‒2.699 times, P=0.014) higher respectively, compared to T2DM patients with Hcy≤10 μmol·L⁻¹. T2DM patients with TyG>9.074 had 1.396 times higher risk of stroke (95%CI: 1.091‒1.787, P=0.008) compared to those with TyG≤9.074. The study found that urea and α1-antitrypsin (α1-AT) were independent risk factors for the incidence of stroke in T2DM patients. For every unit increase in urea andα1-AT, the risk of stroke in T2DM patients increased by 233.6% (HR=3.336, 95%CI: 1.588‒7.009, P=0.001) and 11.3% (HR=1.113, 95%CI: 1.028‒1.205, P=0.008), respectively. Cumulative risk curves showed that Hcy>10 μmol·L⁻¹ and TyG>9.074 accelerated the time to stroke occurrence in T2DM patients. ConclusionElevated levels of Hcy>10 μmol·L⁻¹ and a higher TyG index are risk factors for stroke in T2DM patients. Effective interventions for Hcy and TyG should be conducted for diabetic patients to reduce the incidence of stroke.

Objective To explore the effects of Jinghou Zengzhi Granules(JHZZG),on ovarian GDF9 secretion and granulosa cells(GCs)apoptosis in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation(COH)rats through p38MAPK/CK2/IκBα/NF-κB pathway.Methods A model of COH rats was prepared and 18 rats were randomly divided into 3 groups,including natural ovulation group(NO group),COH group,and COH+JHZZG group.The expression of p38MAPK,CK2,IκBα,NF-κB,GDF9 mRNA and protein were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot,and the apoptosis rate of ovarian GCs by TUNEL.Results Compared with the NO group,the expression of p38MAPK and NF-κB in the ovarian tissue of rats in the COH group increased,while the expression of CK2,IκBα and GDF9 decreased,and the apoptosis rate of ovarian GCs increased(all P<0.01).Compared with the COH group,the expression of p38MAPK and NF-κB in the ovarian tissue of rats in the COH+JHZZG group decreased,while the expression of CK2,IκBα and GDF9 increased(all P<0.01),and the apoptosis rate of ovarian GCs decreased(P<0.05).Conclusion Jinghou Zengzhi Granules could promote the secretion of ovarian GDF9 and inhibit the apoptosis of ovarian GCs of COH rats through p38MAPK/CK2/IκBα/NF-κB signaling pathway,which thereby improve the quality of COH oocytes.

The syndrome/pattern of defensive qi deficiency is a common basic syndrome of traditional Chinese medicine in clinical practice. However,there is a lack of standardized and operable diagnostic specifications in practical applications. Based on the previous literature,this study proposed the idea of starting from the elements of the syndrome,qualitative diagnostic criteria for the syndrome/pattern of defensive qi deficiency oriented to the entire region of the disease were constructed based on the two dimensions of " deficient defensive qi failing to consolidate the exterior" and " qi deficiency" and constructing a set of quantitative evaluation criteria as the supporting content for the diagnostic items. The core members of the research group attempted to formulate the draft standard,then reached a consensus through the Delphi method expert questionnaire consultation and the Nominal group technique,and finally evaluated the reliability and validity of the standard through clinical verification to provide ideas for the standardization and normalization of research on syndromes.

Objective:To investigate the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on learning-memory and the expression of synaptic plasticity proteins in hippocampus of rats with post-stroke sleep deprivation.Methods:A total of 28 SPF grade healthy male Wistar rats with 8-week old were randomly divided into four groups (control group, sham operation group, model group and rTMS group) according to random number table method, with 7 rats in each group. The rats in the model group and the rTMS group were treated with middle cerebral artery occlusion and p-chlorophenylalanine intraperitoneal injection to establish the post-stroke sleep deprivation model. The rats in the rTMS group were treated with rTMS intervention for consecutive 14 days after modeling. The rats in the sham operation group were only separated arteries but not ligated and inserted. The rats in control group were fed normally. The open field test (OFT) was used to observe the autonomous behavior of rats.The water maze test(WMT) was used to observe the spatial learning and memory ability of rats.The content of tyrosine kinase receptor type B(TrkB) in hippocampus was detected by Western blot.The expressions of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) and immediate early gene c-fos in hippocampus were detected by immunofluorescence.The morphology and structure of neurons in hippocampus were observed by optical microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. SPSS 21.0 software was used for statistical analysis, and repeated measurement ANOVA was used for the escape latency data, one-way ANOVA was used for the comparison of other data among multiple groups, and LSD test was used for further pairwise comparison.Results:(1) The OFT results showed that there were statistical differences in the numbers of crossing squares, upright times and total points of rats in the four groups after intervention ( F=27.638, 10.425, 30.690, all P<0.001). The numbers of crossing squares ((72.71±10.10)), upright times ((6.57±0.87)times) and total points ((79.29±10.03) points) of rats in rTMS group were all higher than those in model group after intervention ((43.71±6.96), (3.43±0.65)times, (47.14±6.82)points) (all P<0.05). As for the escape latency of WMT among the four groups of rats, the interaction effect was not significant( F=1.108, P=0.37), and the time main effect( Ftime=27.295, Ptime<0.01) and group main effect ( Fgroup=8.691, Pgroup<0.01) were significant after rTMS intervention.On the 3rd and 4th day, the escape latency of rTMS group rats was lower than that of the model group (both P<0.01). There were statistically significant differences in the numbers of crossing platform, swimming distance and residence time in target quadrant of rats in the four groups after intervention( F=8.569, 3.308, 3.547, all P<0.05). The numbers of crossing platform ((2.00±0.31)times), swimming distance in target quadrant ((196.95±24.57) cm) and residence time ((17.72±1.36)s) of rats in rTMS group were all higher than those in model group after intervention ((1.57±0.30)times, (146.61±4.79) cm, (13.58±0.98)s)(all P<0.05). (2)Optical microscopy and transmission electron microscopy showed that the hippocampal cells arranged irregularly, the organelles' integrity was destroyed in the model group compared with the normal control group. In rTMS group the arrangement and structure of nerve cells in the hippocampus were improved after rTMS intervention. (3) The immunofluorescence results showed that c-fos (1.49±0.09) and BDNF (0.84±0.06) in the hippocampus of rats in rTMS group were both higher than those in model group ((1.24±0.12), (0.48±0.08))(both P<0.05). The Western blot results showed that the expression level of TrkB (1.81±0.03) in the hippocampus of rats in rTMS group was higher than that in model group (0.96±0.02) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The rTMS can improve the learning-memory ability and autonomous capacity of rats with post-stroke sleep deprivation, which may be related to promoting the expression of c-fos, BDNF and TrkB in hippocampus tissue.

Objective To evaluate the molluscicidal effects and costs of spraying 20% suspension concentrate of pyricloben-zuron sulphate (SCPS) with drones against Pomacea canaliculata in paddy environments, so as to provide insights into the extensive applications of pyriclobenzuron against P. canaliculata. Methods On July 2022, a paddy field was selected from Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province as the study area, and 72 independent rectangular plots measuring 2 m × 1 m were allocated in the study area, with 1 m interval between each plot, and 20 P. canaliculata snails gently placed in each plot. The activity of 25% wettable powder of pyriclobenzuron sulphate (WPPS) by manual spraying at doses of 0.50, 1.00, 2.00 g/m² and 4.00 g/m² against P. canaliculata was tested in 54 plots, and manual spraying of 50% wettable powder of niclosamide ethanolamine salt (WPNES) at a dose of 0.10 g/m² served as a chemical control, while manual spraying of the same volume of clean water served as a blank control, with 9 plots in each group. The activity of SCPS against P. canaliculata was tested in the remaining 18 plots. Based on the molluscicidal tests of WPPS, the molluscicidal effect of SCPS by manual spraying at doses of 0.20, 0.30, 0.40 g/m² and 0.50 g/m² against P. canaliculata was evaluated, and manual spraying of WPNES at a dose of 0.10 g/m² served as a chemical control, while manual spraying of the same volume of clean water served as a blank control, with three plots in each group. On July 2023, 14 paddy fields with a mean living P. canaliculata density of > 5 snails/m² were selected from Yujiang District, Yingtan City, Jiangxi Province for molluscicidal tests. Based on the molluscicidal effect of pyriclobenzuron against P. canaliculata in plots, the molluscicidal effects of WPPS by manual spraying at doses of 0.25, 0.50 g/m² and 1.00 g/m² and manual applications of WPPS at dose of 0.25, 0.50, 1.00 g/m² and 2.00 g/m² mixed with soil were tested, and manual spraying of 0.10 g/m² WPNES served as a chemical control group, while manual spraying of the same volume of clean water served as a blank control, with one paddy field in each group. Based on the effect of pyriclobenzuron against P. canaliculata in plots, the activity of SCPS sprayed with drones at doses of 0.25 g/m² and 0.50 g/m² mixed in water at 2 kg/667 m² and 4 kg/667 m² was tested against P. canaliculata, and spraying of the same volume of clean water with drones served as a blank control. All P. canaliculata snails were captured 3 days and 7 days following chemical treatment in plots and paddy fields and identified for survival, and the mortality and corrected mortality of P. canaliculata snails were estimated. In addition, the areas of chemical treatment, amount of molluscicide use and labor costs of chemical treatment were estimated in molluscicidal tests in paddy fields, and the costs of chemical treatment for an area covering 667 m² by drones and manual applications were calculated. Results The mortality of P. canaliculata snails was all 100% in plots 3 days and 7 days following spraying WPPS at doses of 0.50, 1.00, 2.00 g/m² and 4.00 g/m², and the mortality rates of P. canaliculata snails were 66.67% to 100.00% 3 days post-treatment with SCPS at various doses (χ² = 277.897, P < 0.05) and 76.67% to 100.00% 7 days post-treatment (χ² = 274.206, P < 0.05). The mortality rates of P. canaliculata snails were 98.19% to 100.00% 3 days post-treatment with WPPS at various doses in paddy fields. There was a significant difference in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails among WPPS treatment groups and controls (χ² = 270.778, P < 0.05), and there were no significant differences between WPPS treatment groups and the chemical control group (all P values > 0.05), while there were significant differences in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails between WPPS treatment groups and the blank control group (all P values < 0.05). The mortality rates of P. canaliculata snails were 89.83% to 95.31% 3 days post-treatment with SCPS at various doses sprayed with drones, and there was a significant difference in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails among SCPS treatment groups and the blank control group (χ² = 1 132.892, P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails among SCPS treatment groups or water mixture groups (all P values > 0.05), and there were significant differences in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails between SCPS treatment groups and the blank control group (all P values < 0.05). The mortality rates of P. canaliculata snails were 94.62% to 100.00% 7 days post-treatment with SCPS at various doses sprayed with drones, and there was a significant difference in the mortality of P. canaliculata snails among SCPS treatment groups and the blank control group (χ² = 1 266.932, P < 0.05), with the highest mortality found following spraying 0.50 g/m² SCPS mixed in 2 kg/667 m² water with drones (P < 0.05). The costs of P. canaliculata snail control by drones and manually were 35.85 Yuan/667 m² and 43.33 Yuan/667 m²; however, the snail control efficiency was 6.67 times higher by drones than by manual applications. Conclusions SCPS sprayed with drones is highly active against P. canaliculata snails in paddy fields. SCPS sprayed with drones is highly efficient and low in cost for P. canaliculata snail control in paddy fields, beaches and river courses.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the intervention effect of meteorological risk forecasting service on acute onset and medical expenses of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease（COPD） patients， and to provide scientific basis for the establishment of health management model for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease（COPD） patients. MethodsStudy subjects were recruited from chronic obstructive pulmonary patients aged ≥40 in Pudong New Area. Propensity score matching method was used to determine the intervention group and the control group. The control group received regular health education and follow-up management， and the intervention group was provided with meteorological and environmental risk forecasting services through WeChat， mobile phone short message service（SMS）and telephone. Finally， a total of2 589 subjects were included in the analysis， including 1 300 in the intervention group and 1 289 in the control group. General demographic data， past medical history and family history of COPD， COPD related knowledge and practice survey， COPD related symptom assessment， acute onset， health service utilization and medical expenses before and after intervention were collected through questionnaire survey. The differences of acute attack， health service utilization and related medical expenses between the two groups before and after intervention were compared to evaluate the intervention effect. ResultsIn terms of acute attacks， after intervention， the incidence of acute attacks in the intervention group was lower than that before intervention（χ²=52.901， P<0.001）， and the incidence of acute attacks in the groups with different intervention methods was lower than that before intervention （P<0.001）. WeChat had the best effect， decreasing the incidence by 14.4%， followed by mobile phone SMS SMS decreasing by 12.3%. In terms of utilization of health services， the outpatient rate due to acute attack was lower in the intervention group after intervention than that before intervention （χ²=7.129， P=0.008）， and the outpatient rate due to acute attack was lower in the subjects who received the forecast service through mobile phone SMS than that before intervention （χ²=4.675， P<0.001）. In terms of medical expenses， there was no significant difference between control group and intervention group with different intervention methods before intervention （P>0.05）. After intervention， the difference between the control group and the intervention group with different intervention methods was statistically significant （H=11.864， P<0.05）. The results of multiple comparisons showed that compared with the control group， the average annual medical expenses of patients receiving mobile phone SMS and telephone forecasting services after intervention were lower than those of the control group， and the difference was statistically significant （P<0.05）. ConclusionMeteorological risk forecasting service can reduce the acute onset of COPD， reduce the rate of consultation and medical expenses due to acute onset， and provide scientific basis for the basic COPD health management model.

Objective To analyze the influence of drainage volume on prognosis of acute hydrocephalus(AHC)after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage(aSAH)by continuous lumbar drainage.Methods A retrospective trial was conducted on 82 AHC patients after aSAH admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University between January 2017 and January 2022.In 6 months after discharge,modified Rankin Scale(mRS)score was used to evaluate the prognostic outcomes.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed on demographic factors,severity of subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH)at admission,medical history,cerebral vasospasm,and lumbar drainage data.Then a nomogram prediction model was constructed.Results Univariate analysis found that World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies(WFNS)score,Hunt-Hess grade,modified Fisher grade,time for continuous lumbar drainage,shunt dependence,cerebral vasospasm,and drainage volume were factors affecting the prognosis of the patients.Then logistic regression analysis revealed that high WFNS score(OR:3.25,95％CI:1.11～9.48),high modified Fisher grade(OR:3.66,95％CI:1.08～12.35),shunt dependence(OR:15.56,95％CI:1.22～198.57),and cerebral vasospasm(OR:22.24,95％CI:3.08～160.68)were independent predictors for mRS score,while volume of continuous lumbar drainage(OR:0.57,95％CI:0.40～0.82)was an independent protective factor.ROC curve analysis indicated a good predictive performance of the model(AUC=0.898,95％CI:0.935～0.861).Internal validation through Bootstrap method demonstrated excellent discriminatory ability of the model(C-index=0.950,95％CI:0.904～0.996;adjusted C-index:0.934).Conclusion Increased volume of lumbar drainage is an independent protective factor for poor prognosis following aSAH and can improve the prognosis of SAH patients.
