Objective To investigate the effect of Qi stagnation on inhibitory control function and its neuroelectrophysiological mechanism in college students.Methods The population of peace and Qi depression was screened from college students through the scale of"Classification and Judgment Criteria of Traditional Chinese Medicine Constitution",and 35 subjects were included in each group.Combined with event-related potential technology,the two groups were collected to complete the Flanker paradigm behavioral indicators(accuracy,response time)and EEG data indicators(amplitude and latency of N2 and P3 components),and the behavioral differences and neuroelectrophysiological mechanisms between the two groups under the Flanker paradigm were explored.Results Compared with the flat group,the reaction time of the gas depression group was longer(P=0.07).Compared with the consistent dondition,the reaction time was longer under the inconsistent condition(P<0.001),and the accuracy rate was lower under the inconsistent condition significantly(P<0.001).Compared with the peaceful group,the N2 amplitude of the air depression group was higher(P<0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the main effect of brain regions in the N2 latency period(P<0.001).Frontal lobe zero(Fz)in frontal region was greater than Frontal lobe central zero(FCz)in frontal region and greater than Central zero(Cz)in central region(P<0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the main effect of brain region(P<0.001).FCz in the frontal central region was significantly greater than that in the frontal region Fz(P<0.001),and the difference was statistically significant in the central region Cz was significantly greater than that in the frontal region(P<0.001).The incubation period of P3 component was significantly smaller than that of inconsistent stimulation(P<0.001).Conclusion Qi stagnation has a negative effect on the inhibitory control function of college students,and the decline of conflict monitoring and control ability is one of the possible mechanisms.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of Liuwei Dihuang Capsules for type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)with yin deficiency syndrome and the effects on intestinal flora and inflammatory factors.Methods Totally 60 patients of T2DM with yin deficiency syndrome in Dongzhimen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from September 2022 to June 2023 were selected as the study objects,and were divided into control group and observation group according to the method of block randomization,with 30 cases in each group.Both groups received basic treatment.The control group was given a simulated agent of Liuwei Dihuang Capsules,while the observation group was given Liuwei Dihuang Capsules.The treatment course for both groups was 4 weeks.Clinical efficacy,blood glucose levels[fasting plasma glucose(FPG),2-hour postprandial plasma glucose(2 hPG),glycated albumin(GA)],serum insulin levels[fasting insulin(FINS)and insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR)],changes in gut microbiota,and serum inflammatory cytokine levels[interleukin(IL)-6,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α]of both groups were compared.Results The total effective rate of the observation group(76.67%)was better than that of the control group(50.00%)(P<0.05).Compared with before treatment,the FPG,2 hPG,GA,FINS and HOMA-IR decreased in the observation group,while the FPG,2 hPG and FINS decreased in the control group(P<0.05);after treatment,the Shannon index of the observation group increased after treatment(P<0.05),and the diversity of the microbiota increased;the abundance of the microbial communities such as Coprococcus 3,Cutibacterium,Pseudomonas,Faecalibaculum,Dubosiella and Mucispirillum significantly increased(P<0.05);the abundance of Sphingomonas,Corynebacterium 1,Ileibacterium,Ruminiclostridium and other microbiota communities significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with before treatment,the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in both groups were significantly reduced after treatment(P<0.01,P<0.05).After treatment,the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Liuwei Dihuang Capsules can effectively reduce blood glucose levels in patients of T2DM with yin deficiency syndrome,improve insulin resistance,increase gut microbiota diversity,increase beneficial bacterial abundance,reduce harmful bacterial abundance,and alleviate inflammatory cytokine levels.

The theory of blood stasis originated from"The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon(huang Di Nei Jing)",and the drugs used for promoting blood stasis originated from"Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica(Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing)".Finally,the medical sage Zhang Zhong-jing first put forward the name of"blood stasis"in"Synopsis of the Golden Chamber(Jin Gui Yao Lue)",and used the method of promoting blood stasis to treat various diseases,which provided ideas for the future study on the mechanism and treatment of blood stasis syndrome.Therefore,Zhang Zhong-jing was the founder of the theory of blood stasis.Moreover,the principles,methods,prescriptions and medicines which he put forward were still appropriate effectively in the clinic.On the basis of comprehensively combing the research achievements of Zhongjing's blood stasis theory,with combination with the current research hotspots,the review gives a novel understanding of the theory,method,prescription and medicine of Zhongjing's blood stasis theory from new aspects,including etiology,pathogenesis,treatment of blood stasis theory,and the active ingredients of anti-blood stasis Chinese medicines.We intend to promote the research progress of the scientific connotation of blood stasis theory,and improve the diagnosis and treatment level of clinicians in preventing and treating difficult diseases related to blood stasis syndrome through integrated summary and novel interpretation.

Objective To explore the correlation between serum ferritin and the risk of metabolic syndrome, and to provide evidence for the prevention and control of metabolic syndrome. Methods Data was from the Jiang'an District survey data of the Chinese Resident Nutrition and Health Monitoring Project in 2022. A total of 399 adult residents were selected as the study subjects and the investigation was performed by questionnaire, physical examination and biochemical testing. Statistical analysis was conducted by SAS 9.4 software, and the association between serum ferritin and metabolic syndrome was analyzed by using multivariate logistic regression. Results The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in the study population was 43.61%, and 39.04% after standrdization. With the increase of serum ferritin levels, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome gradually increased (P<0.05). Serum ferritin was positively correlated with WC, DBP, TG, FPG, hsCRP, and HbA1c, while negatively correlated with HDL-C (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors, female serum ferritin was positively correlated with the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (OR=3.59，95% CI：1.72-7.46); however, male serum ferritin level was not correlated with the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (OR=2.02，95% CI：0.76-3.40). Conclusion The prevalence of metabolic syndrome among residents in Jiang'an District is relatively high. Serum ferritin is associated with various components of metabolic syndrome, and the high serum ferritin level in women is associated with a higher risk of metabolic syndrome.

Objective: To analyze the trends in new diagnosis rates of HIV/AIDS cases in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province from 2009 to 2023, so as to provide the basis for improving HIV/AIDS prevention and control strategies. Methods: Data of newly reported HIV/AIDS cases in Huzhou City from 2009 to 2023 were collected through the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The new diagnosis rate was calculated as the ratio of newly reported HIV/AIDS cases within one year to the permanent resident population during the same period. The gender, age, and regional distribution characteristics of new diagnosis rates of HIV/AIDS cases were described. The trends were analyzed using average annual percent change (AAPC) and annual percent change (APC). Results: A total of 2 088 new HIV/AIDS cases were reported in Huzhou City from 2009 to 2023, with an average annual new diagnosis rate of 4.53/105. The new diagnosis rates showed an overall increasing trend from 2009 to 2023 (AAPC=12.745%, P<0.05), with rapid growth during 2009 to 2015 (APC=32.734%, P<0.05) but no significant trend during 2015 to 2023 (P>0.05). The average annual new diagnosis rate was significantly higher in males than in females (7.54/100 000 vs. 1.40/100 000, P<0.05). Male new diagnosis rate trend closely mirrored the overall population pattern, while females showed a continuous upward trend without clear inflection point (AAPC=12.575%, P<0.05). Age-specific analysis revealed average annual new diagnosis rates of 2.75/100 000, 6.16/100 000 and 3.83/100 000 for AIDS/HIV cases aged <25, 25-<50 and ≥50 years, respectively. The cases aged <25 years showed no significant trend (P>0.05), while the cases aged 25-<50 and ≥50 years followed patterns similar to the overall population. The average annual new diagnosis rates of HIV/AIDS cases in Wuxing District, Nanxun District, Deqing County, Changxing County and Anji County were 6.54/100 000, 3.43/100 000, 3.45/100 000, 3.56/100 000 and 4.94/100 000, respectively, showing overall upward trends (AAPC=9.672%, 27.599%, 11.800%, 18.896% and 10.254%, all P<0.05). Conclusions The new diagnosis rate of HIV/AIDS cases showed an overall upward trend in Huzhou City from 2009 to 2023. Cases are mainly concentrated among males, people aged 25-<50 years and Wuxing District, making them key targets for HIV/AIDS prevention and control.

BACKGROUND: Treatment with chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cells has shown promising effectiveness in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B-ALL), although the process of preparing for this therapy usually takes a long time. We have recently created CD19 Fast-CAR-T (F-CAR-T) cells, which can be produced within a single day. The objective of this study was to evaluate and contrast the effectiveness and safety of CD19 F-CAR-T cells with those of CD19 conventional CAR-T cells in the management of R/R B-ALL. METHODS: A multicenter, retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 44 patients with R/R B-ALL was conducted. Overall, 23 patients were administered with innovative CD19 F-CAR-T cells (F-CAR-T group), whereas 21 patients were given CD19 conventional CAR-T cells (C-CAR-T group). We compared the rates of complete remission (CR), minimal residual disease (MRD)-negative CR, leukemia-free survival (LFS), overall survival (OS), and the incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) between the two groups. RESULTS: Compared with the C-CAR-T group, the F-CAR-T group had significantly higher CR and MRD-negative rates (95.7% and 91.3%, respectively; 71.4% and 66.7%, respectively; P = 0.036 and P = 0.044). No significant differences were observed in the 1-year or 2-year LFS or OS rates between the two groups: the 1-year and 2-year LFS for the F-CAR-T group vs.C-CAR-T group were 47.8% and 43.5% vs. 38.1% and 23.8% (P = 0.384 and P = 0.216), while the 1-year and 2-year OS rates were 65.2% and 56.5% vs. 52.4% and 47.6% (P = 0.395 and P = 0.540). Additionally, among CR patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) following CAR-T-cell therapy, there were no significant differences in the 1-year or 2-year LFS or OS rates: 57.1% and 50.0% vs. 47.8% and 34.8% (P = 0.506 and P = 0.356), 64.3% and 57.1% vs. 65.2% and 56.5% (P = 0.985 and P = 0.883), respectively. The incidence of CRS was greater in the F-CAR-T group (91.3%) than in the C-CAR-T group (66.7%) (P = 0.044). The incidence of ICANS was also greater in the F-CAR-T group (30.4%) than in the C-CAR-T group (9.5%) (P = 0.085), but no treatment-related deaths occurred in the two groups. CONCLUSION Compared with C-CAR-T-cell therapy, F-CAR-T-cell therapy has a superior remission rate but also leads to a tolerably increased incidence of CRS/ICANS. Further research is needed to explore the function of allo-HSCT as an intermediary therapy after CAR-T-cell therapy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the seroprevalence of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) IgG antibodies among the healthy individuals in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide a scientific basis for the development of prevention and control strategies for Japanese B encephalitis (JE). MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted from 2023 to 2024. Serum samples were collected from healthy individuals across 12 age groups (<8 months, 8 months‒<2 years, 2‒<4 years, 4‒<6 years, 6‒<8 years, 8‒<10 years, 10‒<15 years, 15‒<20 years, 20‒<30 years, 30‒<40 years, 40‒<50 years, 50‒ years) and tested for JEV IgG antibody to determine positivity rates. ResultsThe overall JEV IgG antibody seroprevalence rate was 57.75 % among the healthy individuals in Huzhou City. The positivity rates for the age groups of <8 months, 8 months‒<2 years, 2‒<4 years, 4‒<6 years, 6‒<8 years, 8‒<10 years, 10‒<15 years, 15‒<20 years, 20‒<30 years, 30‒<40 years, 40‒<50 years, and 50‒ years were 10.14%, 23.76%, 77.31%, 66.88%, 73.87%, 58.33%, 41.67%, 55.06%, 47.00%, 61.00%, 62.00%, and 92.00%, respectively, with a statistically significant difference observed in different age groups (χ²=243.996, P<0.001). Seroprevalence rates also differed significantly between males and females (χ²=9.999, P=0.002). Among subjects vaccinated with 0,1 or 2 doses of live attenuated Japanese encephalitis virus vaccine (JEV-L), the IgG antibody seroprevalence rate was 4.76%, 27.27% and 72.33%, respectively (χ²=108.568, P<0.001). Within the 2 doses group, the IgG antibody seroprevalence rate at <1 year, 1 year, 2 years and 3‒5 years after immunization were 80.85%, 77.36%, 66.67% and 65.45%, respectively, indicating a declining trend with time increased since vaccination (Z=-2.024, P=0.043). ConclusionAdults aged 50‒ years maintain high antibody levels, whereas levels are lower among the age groups of <2 years and 8‒<30 years and wane with time since vaccination in Huzhou City. It is recommended to maintain the routine JE vaccination schedule while exploring booster vaccination strategies for the age groups of 8‒<30 years, in order to enhance population immunity against JEV.

Objective To evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status(RBANS)in patients with maintenance hemodialysis(MHD).Methods The general information and medical history of 84 MHD patients were collected,and the Mini-Mental State Exam(MMSE),Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale(MoCA),and RBANS were conducted.The reliability of the scale was assessed by Cronbach α and split-half reliability.The structure and convergent validity of the scale were assessed by confirmatory factor analysis,and the RBANS scores'correlation to MoCA and MMSE scores was analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis.The predictive value of the RBANS total score on cognitive impairment(CI)was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the RBANS total scale was 0.896,split-half reliability was 0.911,and reliability for the five dimensions of the RBANS ranged from 0.618 to 0.791.Confirmatory factor analysis indicated that the overall fit of the five-dimensional model of the RBANS scale was acceptable(χ2/df=1.587,root mean square error of approximation=0.084,comparative fit index=0.967,incremental fit index=0.968,Tucker-Lewis index=0.947,goodness of fit index=0.891).The average variance extracted(AVE)for the five dimensions of the RBANS ranged from 0.525 to 0.863,while the composite reliability(CR)ranged from 0.733 to 0.926,indicating good convergent validity of the scale.Furthermore,Spearman correlation analysis revealed that the total RBANS score was negatively correlated to the age of MHD patients and positively correlated to years of education,as well as the total scores of MMSE and MoCA(all P<0.01).The ROC curve analysis indicated that the area under the curve(AUC)for the total RBANS score in predicting CI was 0.891(P<0.01),suggesting a high predictive value.Conclusion The Chinese version of RBANS has good reliability and validity in MHD patients,and can be used as a measure of cognitive function in MHD patients.

Objective To investigate the syndromic characteristics of upper airway cough syndrome in children and the rules of tra-ditional Chinese medicine(TCM)prescription and medication.Methods The literature related to the treatment of upper airway cough syndrome in children by TCM in CNKI,Weipu,Wanfang and China Biomedical Literature Service System from the establishment of the database to December 1,2023 was retrieved,extracted the symptoms,signs and prescriptions,and performed data mining using the Chi-nese Medicine Inheritance Computing Platform V3.5.Results Ninety-three articles,25 types of symptoms,119 prescription and 199 flavors of TCM were finally included in the study.The cough was mainly in the morning,and the high-frequency symptoms were nasal congestion,runny nose,and mucus adherence on the posterior wall of the pharynx,and the postnasal drip sensation was present in 25.29％of the children;The main type of symptoms was"wind-heat offending the lungs",followed by"phlegm-heat depleting the lungs"and"wind-phlegm adhering to the lungs",etc.The top five TCM used were Flos magnoliae,Balloonflower root,Siberian cocklebur fruit,Liquorice root and Angelica dahurica;the medicinal properties of these medicines were mainly warm-natured and cold-natured,and the five flavors of these medicines were mainly pungent and bitter;most of the categorized meridians were the lung meridian,and the core medicinal pairs were"Flos magnoliae,Siberian cocklebur fruit""Flos magnoliae,Balloonflower root","Balloonflower root,Liquo-rice root".Three pairs of core drug combinations were obtained by K-Means clustering,all of which were additions to Siberian cocklebur fruit decoction,and their treatment was based on ventilate the lung and inducing resuscitation.Conclusion The diagnosis and treatment of upper airway cough syndrome in children should pay attention to the nasopharyngeal signs,and should pay attention to the passage of the orifices and the pharynx while dredging the wind and clearing the heat and promoting the lung to stop coughing,so as to achieve the effect of the simultaneous treatment of the lung and nose and the lung and throat.
