ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Yueju Wan on the 5-hydroxytryptamine （5-HT） signaling pathway in rats with functional dyspepsia （FD） and to explore its therapeutic mechanism in the treatment of FD. MethodsSixty Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into a normal group， model group， mosapride group （1.575 mg·kg^-1）， and Yueju Wan low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （0.735， 1.47， and 2.94 g·kg^-1， respectively）. The FD rat model was established using GUO's tail-clamping stimulation combined with irregular feeding. After 14 days of modeling， rats were administered the corresponding drugs by gavage for 28 days. After treatment， gastric emptying rate and small intestinal propulsion rate were measured. Serum levels of 5-HT， tryptophan hydroxylase （TPH）， and substance P （SP） were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， and acetylcholine （ACh） levels were determined by chemical methods. Histopathological changes in the gastric antrum were observed using hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to assess the mRNA and protein expression levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine 4 receptor （5-HT4R）， SP， and acetylcholinesterase （AChE） in colon tissue， as well as 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 receptor （5-HT3R）， SP， and AChE in hypothalamic tissue. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was used to examine the expression of 5-HT and 5-HT4R in the colon and 5-HT and 5-HT3R in the hypothalamus. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the gastric emptying rate and small intestinal propulsion rate in the model group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Serum levels of 5-HT， SP， ACh， and TPH were significantly reduced （P<0.01）. Histopathological examination revealed irregular arrangement of glands in the gastric antrum， slight mucosal atrophy， and mild inflammatory cell infiltration. The mRNA and protein expression levels of 5-HT4R， SP， and AChE in colon tissue， as well as 5-HT3R， SP， and AChE in hypothalamic tissue， were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， and 5-HT protein expression in both the colon and hypothalamus was also significantly reduced （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， all Yueju Wan groups showed significantly increased gastric emptying rate and small intestinal propulsion rate （P<0.01）. The glands in the gastric antrum were more regularly arranged， with no inflammatory cell infiltration observed. Serum levels of 5-HT， SP， ACh， and TPH were significantly increased （P<0.01）. The mRNA and protein expression levels of 5-HT4R， SP， and AChE in colon tissue and 5-HT3R， SP， and AChE in hypothalamic tissue were significantly upregulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and 5-HT protein expression in both the colon and hypothalamus was significantly increased （P<0.01）. ConclusionYueju Wan has preventive and therapeutic effects on FD， and its mechanism may be related to regulation of the 5-HT signaling pathway， promotion of brain-gut peptide secretion， and enhancement of gastric motility.

"Sinew prescription correspondence" is the principle of selecting prescriptions for channel sinew diseases. On the basis of the theory of syndrome differentiation and treatment， the pulse manifestation corresponds to the channel sinew syndrome， which can improve the flexibility and standardization of clinical prescriptions. From the perspective of systematic dialectical sphygmology， this paper explains the dialectical relationship between channel sinew theory and pulse body elements， pulse wall elements， pulse elements and blood flow elements， and clarifies the internal relationship between pulse manifestation and prescriptions at the level of channel sinew disease. The prescription is derived from the method， while the method is established with the syndrome， and the prescription is unified by the method. According to the theory of "sinew prescription correspondence"， the treatment ideas of channel sinew diseases were analyzed from the perspective of channel sinew distribution， functional characteristics and structural changes. On this basis， the diagnosis of channel sinew disease and the application of prescriptions are expanded， and the research on the internal treatment and diagnosis mode of "pulse manifestation-channel sinew-zang fu （脏腑）" is prospected， so as to expand the differentiation and treatment methods of channel sinew theory.

Objective To investigate the cross-sectional associations between different fatty liver classifications and cardiac structure and function in people undergo health examination. Methods A total of 6 545 adults who underwent health examinations at the Health Management Center of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University between January 1 and December 31, 2017, were retrospectively included. Demographic characteristics and laboratory data were collected. The hepatic steatosis was graded by ultrasonography. And patients with fatty liver were further stratified according to alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels, as well as the degree of liver fibrosis. Cardiac morphology and function were assessed by transthoracic echocardiography, and left ventricular geometric patterns were classified accordingly. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the associations between fatty liver classifications and cardiac abnormalities. Results There were 2 795 patients (42.7%) with fatty liver, of whom 832 (29.8%) had significant cardiac structural alterations and 1 500 (53.7%) had diastolic dysfunction. Severe fatty liver was risk factor for concentric remodeling and increased relative wall thickness (RWT), with odds ratios (ORs) of 1.27 (P＝0.012) and 1.27 (P＝0.009), respectively. Fatty liver accompanied by elevated ALT or AST was risk factor for concentric remodeling (OR＝1.45,1.56; P＝0.001, 0.001), increased RWT (OR＝1.48,1.57; P＜0.001, ＜0.001), and diastolic dysfunction (OR＝1.27, 1.32; P＝0.035, 0.040), respectively. Fatty liver with liver fibrosis was risk factor for concentric remodeling (OR＝1.83, P＝0.046) and diastolic dysfunction (OR＝2.64, P＝0.034). Conclusions Advanced fatty liver, including severe hepatic steatosis, accompanied by elevated liver enzymes or liver fibrosis, could increase risks of cardiac remodeling and diastolic dysfunction, while systolic function is preserved. For patients with fatty liver, it is recommended to undergo regular ultrasonography examination.

Objective To study the spatial distribution of the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis in Hubei Province and its influencing factors, so as to improve the theoretical basis for scientific development of tuberculosis prevention and control measures in the future. Methods The data of reported incidence of tuberculosis and related influencing factors in various counties and districts of Hubei Province in 2020 were collected. Global Moran's I index, hotspot analysis and geographically weighted regression (GWR) model analysis were used to calculate the spatial autocorrelation of the incidence of tuberculosis, and to analyze the influencing factors affecting the incidence rate of tuberculosis. Results There were obvious regional differences in the space distribution of the incidence rate of tuberculosis. Hot spot analysis showed positive spatial correlation and obvious clustering. The GWR model (AICc=784.251) in this study had higher AICc value compared to the ordinary least squares regression (OLS) model (AICc=804.2585). The GWR model showed that the increase in the proportion of the population aged 65 and above and the proportion of the ethnic minority population had a significant promoting effect on the increase of the incidence rate of tuberculosis, and there was significant spatial heterogeneity. The effect of PM_2.5 concentration on the incidence rate of pulmonary tuberculosis varied in different regions, and the degree of effect was also different. Conclusion The proportion of people aged 65 and above and the proportion of ethnic minorities may significantly influence the incidence of pulmonary tuberculosis. The effect of PM_2.5 concentration varies in different regions, so targeted measures should be formulated according to the situation in different regions.

Objective:To investigate the impact of early invasive arterial blood pressure (IBP) monitoring on survival and neurological outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients undergoing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR).Methods:This retrospective cohort study analyzed 44 OHCA patients receiving ECPR between January 2021 and January 2023. Patients were divided into: Early intervention group : IBP established within 3 min of ECMO initiation; Late intervention group : IBP established after ICU admission. Baseline characteristics, ECMO parameters, and clinical outcomes were compared. Multivariable logistic regression (adjusted for age, initial rhythm, etc.) and Spearman's correlation were used.Results:This study included a total of 44 patients treated with OHCA and ECPR, divided into an early intervention group of 23 cases and a late intervention group of 21 cases. The early intervention group showed significantly higher: Survival to discharge (43.5% vs. 9.5%, P<0.05), Good neurological recovery (CPC 1-2: 34.8% vs. 9.5%, P<0.05).Early intervention independently predicted survival (adjusted OR=18.84, 95% CI:1.97-179.98, P=0.01). Stratified analysis by pH (cutoff 7.0) demonstrated consistent benefits in both pH>7.0 ( aOR=0.392, 95% CI:0.106-0.678) and pH≤7.0 subgroups ( aOR=0.385, 95% CI: 0.075-0.695; interaction P=0.183). Early IBP positively correlated with CPC scores ( ρ=0.40, P=0.007). Conclusions:Early IBP monitoring significantly improves survival and neurological outcomes in OHCA-ECPR patients, supporting its integration into standardized protocols.

[Purpose]To analyze the trends of incidence and age at onset of leukemia in Jiangsu cancer registration areas from 2009 to 2019.[Methods]The continuous monitoring data of leukemia from 2009 to 2019 were collected from 16 cancer registries in Jiangsu Province.All datasets were checked and evaluated based on data quality control criteria and were included in the analysis.Crude incidence rate(CIR),age-standardized incidence rate by Chinese standard population(ASIRC),the average annual percentage change(AAPC),the standardized average age at onset,the changes in the age structure of incidence and the changes in the birth cohort by year were calculated.[Results]The incidence rate of leukemia significantly increased from 5.22/105 in 2009 to 7.88/105 in 2019,with a significant upward trend(for CIR,AAPC=4.95％,95％CI:3.82％～6.09％;for ASIRC,AAPC=2.97％,95％CI:1.52％～4.43％).The incidence rates were in-creased in all age groups and increased with the birth cohort by years.There was a tendency of backward shift for the age composition of the population,with the increasing of composition for those over 60 years old.The mean age at onset increased from 48.62 years old in 2009 to 57.96 years old in 2019,with a backward shift in the mean age(β=0.773,P＜0.001),and the mean age at onset increased with the year only in rural areas after standardization(β=0.428,P=0.017).[Conclusion]Leukemia incidence rate in Jiangsu Province increased from 2009 to 2019,and the age at onset has shifted backwards.It's important to strengthen the early prevention and control of leukemia.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum trimethylamine oxide(TMAO),endo-thelial cell specific molecule 1(Endocan)and cardiac function and pregnancy outcome in patients with hyper-tensive disorders of pregnancy(HDP).Methods A total of 182 patients with HDP admitted to Handan Ma-ternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2021 to June 2023(HDP group)and 98 healthy pregnant women admitted to this hospital during the same period(control group)were selected as research subjects.Serum TMAO,Endocan and left ventricular cardiac function indexes[left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left ventricular end-diastolic volume(LVEDV)and left ventricular end-systolic volume(LVESV)]were compared between the two groups.According to pregnancy outcome,HDP patients were divided into poor outcome group(78 cases)and good outcome group(104 cases).Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between serum TMAO and Endocan and cardiac function indexes in HDP patients,and multi-factor Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDP patients.The predictive value of serum TMAO and Endocan for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDP patients was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results Compared with control group,serum TMAO,Endocan,LVEDV and LVESV were increased in HDP group,and LVEF was decreased(P＜0.05).Serum TMAO and Endocan in HDP patients were negatively correlated with LVEF(P＜0.05),and positively correlated with LVEDV and LVESV(P＜0.05).The incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes in 182 HDP patients was 42.86％(78/182).Preeclampsia(PE),severe preeclampsia(SPE),24 h urine protein increase,LVEDV increase,LVESV increase,TMAO increase,Endocan increase were independent risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDP patients,and LVEF increase was protective factor(P＜0.05).The area under the curve of serum TMAO combined with Endocan in predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDP patients was 0.880,which was greater than 0.793 and 0.788 predicted by serum TMAO and Endocan a-lone.Conclusion The increase of serum TMAO and Endocan levels in HDP patients are relate to the decrease of cardiac function and adverse pregnancy outcomes,and the combined detection of the two has high predictive value for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDP patients.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum pregnancy-specific protein 1(PSG1),stress-induced protein 2(Sestrin 2),growth arrest-specific protein 6(Gas6)and uterine artery blood flow pa-rameters and fetal growth restriction(FGR)in patients with gestational hypertension(GH).Methods A to-tal of 485 GH patients admitted to Handan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2020 to October 2023 were selected as the research objects and divided into the occurrence group(81 cases)and the non-occur-rence group according to whether FGR occurred.The correlations between serum PSG1,Sestrin 2,Gas6 and uterine artery blood flow parameters[pulse index(PI),resistance index(RI),ratio of peak systolic velocity to end diastolic velocity(S/D)]was analysed,as well as the related influencing factors of FGR in GH patients.In addition,a Nomogram model based on the influencing factors was constructed to analyze the predictive value.Results The serum PSG1 level in occurrence group was significantly lower than that in non-occurrence group,and the serum Sestrin 2,Gas6 levels and PI,RI,S/D values were significantly higher than those in non-occurrence group(P＜0.05).Pearson correlation results showed that serum PSG1 was negatively correlated with the uterine artery blood flow parameters PI,RI,and S/D,and the levels of serum Sestrin 2 and Gas6 were positively correlated with the uterine artery blood flow parameters PI,RI,and S/D(P＜0.05).Gestational di-abetes mellitus,umbilical cord abnormalities,high Sestrin 2,high Gas6,high PI,high RI,and high S/D were independent risk factors for the occurrence of FGR in GH patients(P＜0.05),and increased PSG1 level was protective factor for the occurrence of FGR in GH patients(P＜0.05).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of the Nomogram prediction model con-structed based on the influencing factors for predicting the occurrence of FGR in GH patients was 0.982,and the sensitivity and specificity were 0.943 and 0.938,respectively.The internal verification of the Bootstrap method shows that the Bias-corrected prediction curve basically coincides with the Ideal line,and the consis-tency index(C-index)was 0.964,indicating that the model was relatively stable.The decision curve shows that the threshold probability of this model was 0.01-1.00 and the net return rate was above 0.Conclusion Ser-um PSG1,Sestrin 2 and Gas6 in GH patients are closely related to uterine artery blood flow parameters and FGR,and the three are the influencing factors for the occurrence of FGR in GH patients.The constructed No-mogram model has a good predictive efficacy for FGR.
