Objective To explore the relationship between traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)constitution,functional connectivity(FC)of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex(DLPFC),and fluid intelligence in university students to elucidate the mind-body relationship from a modern perspective of TCM.Methods From October 2023 to December 2023,a total of 96 college students of Jiangxi University of Chinese Medicine were included,and Classification and Identification of Constitution in Traditional Chinese Medicine:ZYYXH/T 157-2009,Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices(RAPM)and resting-state functional near-infrared spectroscopy were used to evaluate TCM constitution,fluid intelligence,and FC of DLPFC.The differences in fluid intelligence between individuals with biased and balanced constitutions were compared using t-tests,and the associations among the TCM Constitution,RAPM score,and the FC between the left and right DLPFC were explored using partial correlation analysis.Results The tendency toward blood-stasis type and a dampness-heat type were positively correlated with the RAPM scores.College students with a tendency toward blood-stasis type exhibited significantly higher RAPM scores than those with a balanced constitution(P＜0.05).Additionally,significant negative correlations were observed between the tendencies toward blood-stasis and yin-deficiency types and the FC of the bilateral DLPFC.In contrast,a significant positive correlation was observed in individuals with balanced constitution tendencies.Conclusion The tendency toward blood-stasis type is associated with fluid intelligence levels and DLPFC functional activity in college students.This finding suggests that students with higher intelligence levels are more likely to exhibit blood-stasis type,highlighting the need for appropriate adjustments and interventions.

Objective To explore the path of expanding the forms and optimizing the effects of children's health science popularization,further enhance the dissemination effect of science popularization,and improve children's health literacy.Meth-ods The WeChat public account of a tertiary pediatric hospital in Tianjin was selected as the research object.Using case analy-sis and data collection methods,statistics on the proportion of health science articles,the proportion of forms,reading volume,and other data were collected.Quantitative analysis was conducted on the dissemination effect of health science popularization.Strategies were proposed based on the problems reflected in the data.Results In this study,184 articles were studied,and 61 science popularization articles were analyzed in depth.In terms of science content,there were 2 articles with a total reading vol-ume of over 100 000.The average reading volume was mostly distributed in the range of 1 000-3 000 views,and the number of forwards and views maintained a low level of 4-15 views.In terms of the form of science popularization,the average reading vol-ume of video content was about 3 600 views,and the average reading volume of comic content was about 8 800 views,both lower than the average reading volume of traditional graphic content.Conclusion Based on the problems of low accuracy of children's health science content and insufficient formal innovation,an optimization path centered on the audience to optimize content and expand forms is proposed.This provides a reference for medical institutions to further leverage the role of WeChat public accounts and improve the level of children's health science popularization.

Objective:To investigate the protective effects and related mechanisms of Astragaloside Ⅳ(ASⅣ)alleviating Angiotensin II-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.Methods:H9c2 cardiomyocytes were divided into six groups: normal control group, ASⅣ group(ASⅣ 100 μmol/L), AngⅡ group(AngⅡ 1 μmol/L), and three ASⅣ dose experiments(AngⅡ 1 μmol/L + ASⅣ 25 μmol/l group, AngⅡ 1 μmol/L+ ASⅣ 50 μmol/l group, AngⅡ1 μmol/L+ ASⅣ 100 μmol/L group), and simultaneously cultured for 24 hours.Cardiomyocyte viability was assessed by CCK8 assay, and surface area of culturedcardiomyocytes in each group was assessed by immunofluorescence assay.Atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP)mRNA expression was assessed by fluorescence real-time quantitative RT-PCR.And LC3 protein expression, an autophagy related protein, was assessed by Western blotting as well as immunofluorescence.Results:(1)AngⅡ decreased cardiomyocyte H9c2 viability in a dose-dependent manner( P<0.05). ASⅣ could inhibit the decrease of cardiomyocyte H9c2 viability in response to AngⅡ in a dose-dependent manner( P<0.05). (2)H9c2 cardiomyocytes induced by AngⅡ showed a significantly larger cell area and significantly higher ANP mRNA and ANP protein expression compared with controls.Different concentrations of ASⅣ intervention could reverse the increase of cardiomyocyte H9c2 area induced by AngⅡ and also decreased the expression of ANP protein induced by AngⅡ in a dose-dependent manner(all P<0.05). (3)Compared with the control group, the autophagy level and the expression of autophagy marker LC3II/I of H9c2 cardiomyocytes induced by AngⅡ were significantly increased(all P<0.05). ASⅣ could inhibit AngⅡ-activated autophagy, and the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05). ASⅣ inhibited the expression of LC3II/I in H9c2 cardiomyocytes stimulated by AngⅡ, and the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05). Conclusions:ASⅣ inhibits AngⅡ-induced cardiac hypertrophy by inhibiting autophagy of cardiomyocytes.

Objective: To study the effect of doxofylline on acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and reduce the risk of early recurrence. Methods: From January 2016 to January 2018, 164 patients with acute exacerbation of COPD in Binzhou Central Hospital were randomly divided into two groups by random digital table: control group (n=82) and observation group (n=82). The control group was given tiotropium bromide and budesonide/formoterol.The observation group was treated with oral doxophylline bid for 8 weeks on the basis of inhaled drugs.The recovery time, acute exacerbation rate, FEV₁, CAT score and 6-minute walking test were compared between the two groups. Results: The time of convalescent stage in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group[(16.89±5.15)d vs.(19.12±6.29)d, t=2.48, P=0.014], and the acute exacerbation rate of the observation group was lower than that of the control group (26.83% vs.41.46%, χ²=4.58, P=0.032). There was no statistically significant difference in FEV₁[(45.59±9.82)% vs.(44.26±9.03)%, t=0.90, P=0.369], and the CAT score of the observation group was better than that of the control group [(19.32±6.16)points vs.(21.71±6.62)points, t=2.39, P=0.018]. The 6-minute walking distance of the observation group was longer than that of the control group[(146.32±10.20)m vs.(135.69±11.59)m, t=6.23, P=0.000], and the finger pulse oxygen of the observation group was higher than that of the control group[(94.12±5.09)% vs.(92.06±6.21)%, t=2.23, P=0.026]. The respiratory rate in the observation group was slower than that in the control group[(20.38±7.32)times/min vs.(22.86±6.53)times/min, t=2.29, P=0.023], and there was no statistically significant difference in heart rate[(98.24±12.35)bpm vs.(101.38±15.03)bpm, t=1.46, P=0.146]. No serious adverse drug reactions were found in both two groups. Conclusion As a beneficial supplement of inhaled drugs in convalescent COPD, doxofylline can shorten the recovery time, reduce the early acute exacerbation rate and improve the symptoms, which is worthy of clinical reference.

Objective To investigate the effect mechanism of sanguinarine on the proliferation,apoptosis,invasion and migration abilities of cervical cancer cells.Methods MTT,flow cytometer,cell scratch test and Transwell chamber assay were respectively used to detect the cellular proliferation,apoptosis,migration and invasion abilities after sanguinarine action.The expression levels of E-Cadherin,PTEN,β-catenin and MMP2 protein of cervical cancer cells after sanguinarine action were detected by Western blot.Results 0.6,0.8 μmol/L sanguinarine had the inhibitory effect on the proliferation of cervical cancer cells.After 0.8μmol/L sanguinarine action for 48 h,cervical cancer HeLa and Siha cells apoptosis rate were up to (45.68± 2.26)％ and(31.89 ± 3.80)％ respectively.0.8 μmol/L sanguinarine action for 3 h,cervical cancer cells HeLa and Siha adhesion rates were only (67.45 ± 2.13)％and(73.59± 2.61)％.0.8 mol/L sanguinarine action for 16 h,the invasion numbers of cervical cancer Hela and Siha cell were (39.64 ±1.98) and (43.87 ± 2.83) respectively.The expression amount of E-Cadherin and PTEN in cervical cancer cells after sanguinarine action was increased,while the expression amount of E-Cadherin and PTEN was weakened.Conclusion Sanguinarine has the proliferation inhibiting and apoptosis promoting effect on cervical cancer cells,its mechanism may be related to adhesion protein E-Cadherin,β-catenin and PTEN,MMP2.

Objective To explore the variation and clinical value of the degradation of endothelial glycocalyx in the patients with septic shock. Methods A prospective case control study was conducted. Patients of 18 years or older diagnosed with septic shock and admitted to Department of Critical Care Medicine of Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical University from June 2014 to May 2015 were enrolled. The levels of degradation products, including hyaluronic acid (HA) and heparin sulfate (HS), at 0, 6, 12, 24, 48 hours were determined, while 20 healthy people were enrolled and served as controls. The changes of HA and HS were analyzed in the patients with septic shock. The differences of HA and HS between survival group and death group after 28 days were also analyzed. The relationships between HA, HS and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, arterial blood lactate (Lac), platelet, albumin were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. The receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to assess the prognostic value of HA and HS for patients with septic shock. Results Thirty-one patients diagnosed as septic shock were enrolled, among whom 17 patients died after 28 days, with a mortality of 54.8%. The levels of HA and HS in patients with septic shock were increased significantly as compared with those of health control group, peaked at 48 hours, and the levels of HA and HS at 48 hours were significantly higher than those at 0 hour [HA (μg/L): 119.47±32.44 vs. 94.84±23.63, HS (μg/L): 72.83±19.03 vs. 58.83±16.63, both P < 0.05]. The levels of HA and HS at 0 hour and 48 hours in death group were significantly higher than those of the survival group [HA (μg/L): 130.42±27.67 vs. 93.29±29.80, 105.14±19.18 vs. 70.82±13.24; HS (μg/L): 67.23±25.01 vs. 39.23±14.58, 79.74±19.84 vs. 56.17±14.53, all P < 0.05]. The levels of HA and HS in patients with septic shock were remarkably positively correlated with the levels of TNF-α, SOFA score, Lac, and platelet, but were remarkably negatively correlated with albumin levels (r value of HA was 0.595, 0.462, 0.545, 0.466, -0.534, respectively; r value of HS was 0.607, 0.468, 0.563, 0.547, -0.455, respectively; all P < 0.05). It was demonstrated by ROC curves that the areas under ROC curve (AUC) of HA and HS at 0 hour and 48 hours for predicting the prognosis of patients with septic shock were 0.881, 0.940 and 0.833, 0.821, respectively, the sensitivities of HA and HS were 87.5%, 100.0% and 83.3%, 81.3%, respectively, and the specificities of HA and HS were 82.6%, 78.3% and 91.3%, 78.3%, respectively. Conclusions The concentrations of degradation products generated by endothelial glycocalyx in the blood of the patients with septic shock are remarkably increased. The elevated levels of the degradation products are closely associated with the severity of septic shock, microcirculation disturbance, and the levels of inflammatory factors.

ObjectiveTo study the value of strain ratio from longitudinal section and cross section in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules using ultrasonic elastography.MethodsA total of 118 patients with 153 thyroid nodules underwent examinations with real-time ultrasonic elastography to obtain the strain ratio from longitudinal section and cross section. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate the value of elastography. The nodules are divided into two groups, group one included nodules which were near the isthmus and group two included other nodules. Diagnostic results were compared with pathological results.ResultsThe area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the strain ratios for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules were 0.906 and 0.844. There was no statistical difference (Z=1.542,P>0.05). The best diagnostic cut-off points of the strain ratios were 3.65 and 3.58. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, negative predictive value of the strain ratio from longitudinal section for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules were 81.2%, 80.8%, 81.0%, 87.2% and 71.2% and those of strain ratio from cross section were 77.2%, 76.9%, 77.1%, 84.4% and 63.4%. In group one, the AUC were 0.903 and 0.830. There was no statistical difference (Z=1.125,P>0.05). The best diagnostic cut-off points were 3.30 and 3.28. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, negative predictive value of the strain ratio from longitudinal section for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules were 86.2%, 68.8%, 80.0%, 83.3% and 73.3% and those of strain ratio from cross section were 78.6%, 58.8%, 71.1%, 75.9% and 62.5%. In group two, the AUC were 0.906 and 0.852. There was no statistical difference (Z=0.936,P>0.05). The best diagnostic cut-off points were 3.33 and 3.71. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, negative predictive value of the strain ratio from longitudinal section for differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules were 90.1%, 75.7%, 85.2%, 87.7% and 80.0% and those of strain ratio from cross section were 84.7%, 70.3%, 80.6%, 83.6% and 72.2%. ConclusionReal-time ultrasonic elastography is helpful to the differential diagnosis of thyroid nodules, but there is no statistical difference between the strain ratio from longitudinal section and cross section.
