ObjectiveTo explore the changes in color， odor and chemical components during wine-processing of Chuanxiong Rhizoma（CR）， identify differential markers， and provide a basis for standardizing the process and establishing quality standards. MethodsFifteen batches of CR samples from 4 producing areas were collected. Colorimeter and electronic nose were used to detect the color changes and odor components of CR before and after wine-processing. Multivariate statistical methods including partial least squares-discriminant analysis（PLS-DA）， principal component analysis（PCA）， discriminant factor analysis（DFA） and Fisher discriminant analysis were applied to identify wine-processed CR at different processing stages and establish discriminant models， and differential components were screened out based on variable importance in the projection（VIP） value1. Then， high performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） was employed to detect the content changes of four components（ferulic acid， senkyunolide I， senkyunolide A and ligustilide） during the processing stages. ResultsThe differences of wine-processed CR at various stages were primarily reflected in color parameters L^*（brightness value）， a^*（red-green value） and b^*（yellow-blue value）. Based on chromaticity differences， the color reference ranges were established for moderately processed CR， including L^* of 46.75-48.24， a^* of 5.37-6.07 and b^* of 20.32-21.70. In odor analysis， DFA revealed significant differences among processing stages， and 11 odor markers were identified， with four differential markers（4-hydroxy-3-butylphthalide， isopropyl butyrate， L-limonene and 1-methoxyhexane） based on VIP values. HPLC results showed that there was no significant difference of the four components except for ligustilide in wine-processed CR at different stages. ConclusionThis study achieved rapid identification of wine-processed CR with different processing degrees by electronic sensory technology and differential component content detection， with discrimination accuracy rates of 92.4% and 93.272% for color and odor， respectively. This paper also established the reference ranges of main colorimetric parameters for wine-processed CR at different stages， and four differential components were screened out， providing a basis for standardizing the processing of wine-processed CR and establishing quality standards for this decoction pieces.

Objective To investigate the immediate therapeutic efficacy of Kuanxiong Aerosol on improving the angina pectoris in the patients complicated with intermediate coronary stenosis(ICS),and to observe its effect on resting full-cycle ratio(RFR),corrected TIMI(thrombolysis in myocardial infarction)frame count(CTFC)in angiography,and coronary serum inflammatory factors.Methods Sixty angina pectoris patients with ICS admitted to the Cardiovascular Department of Dade Road Hospital,Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from March 2023 to March 2024 were randomly divided into the trial group and the control group,with 30 patients in each group.The trial group was given four consecutive sprays of Kuanxiong Aerosol by sublingual spray,and the control group had no intervention but just was given the monitoring for 10 minutes.Before and after the intervention,the changes of coronary RFR,CTFC,Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)score of chest pain,and the serum levels of C-reactive protein(CRP),interleukin 6(IL-6)and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2(Lp-PLA2)in the two groups were observed.Moreover,the incidence of adverse reactions during the intervention in the two groups of patients was compared.Results(1)After the intervention,the coronary RFR value of the trial group was increased significantly compared with that before intervention(P<0.01),while the coronary RFR value of the control group was not increased significantly compared with that before intervention(P>0.05);the comparison between the two groups showed that the effect on increasing the coronary RFR value in the trial group was superior to that in the control group(P<0.05).(2)After intervention,the CTFC value of the trial group was significantly decreased compared with that before intervention(P<0.01),while the CTFC value of the control group was not significantly decreased compared with that before intervention(P>0.05);the intergroup comparison showed that the trial group tended to have a better effect on the decrease of CTFC value than the control group,but the difference being not statistically significant(P>0.05).(3)After the intervention,the chest pain VAS score of the trial group was significantly reduced compared with that before intervention(P<0.01),while the pre-and post-treatment changes of the score in the control group was not significant(P>0.05);the intergroup comparison showed that the decrease of the chest pain VAS score in the trial group was superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).In particular for immediate therapeutic efficacy,Kuanxiong Aerosol achieved the effective rate of 96.67%(29/30)for relieving chest pain 10 minutes after sublingual spraying,which was significantly superior to that of the control group[10.00%(3/30)],and the comparison between the two groups showed that the difference was statistically significant(P<0.001).(4)After the intervention,the Lp-LPA2 value of the trial group was decreased compared with that before intervention(P<0.05),while the CRP and IL-6 values of the trial group as well as the CRP,IL-6,and Lp-LPA2 values of the control group were all not significantly decreased compared with those before intervention(P>0.05).The intergroup comparison showed that the trial group's effect on the decrease of Lp-LPA2 value was significantly superior to that of the control group(P<0.05).(5)Before and after the intervention,no obvious changes of the general vital signs in the two groups were shown,no drug-related adverse occurred,either.Conclusion Kuanxiong Aerosol can immediately improve the coronary physiological function indicators of angina pectoris patients with ICS,increase the coronary flow rate,and inhibit inflammatory response of the coronary artery to some degree,thus to alleviate the symptoms of angina pectoris in patients with ICS.

ObjectiveTo analyze the prevalence and influencing factors of overweight and obesity among primary school students in a community of Fengxian District, Shanghai, and to provide references for formulating prevention and control strategies against overweight and obesity. MethodsData on height and weight of all primary school students in a community in Fengxian District, Shanghai, in 2023 were obtained by physical examination, and 1 759 primary school students were included according to the entry criteria. Overweight and obesity were determined using body mass index (BMI). Additionally, a questionnaire survey was performed to 1 045 students to collect their demographic characteristics, dietary behaviors, dietary habits, sleep and physical activity information. Chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of overweight and obesity. ResultsIn 2023, among the 1 759 primary school students in the community in Fengxian District, 923 (52.47%) were male and 836 (47.53%) were female, with an overweight/obesity detection rate of 28.08%. The detection rate of overweight and obesity was 33.37% in males and 22.25% in females, which was significantly higher in males than that in females (χ²=26.845, P<0.001). Students aged 10‒12 years had a higher overweight/obesity detection rate (32.55%) than those aged 6‒<10 years (26.53%), and the difference was statistically significant (χ²=10.925, P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis revealed that being female, with young age, parental education level of bachelor’s degree and above, a high global dietary recommendation healthy (GDR-healthy) score, preference for vegetables and sweeter home-cooked meals, and a slow eating speed were negatively correlated with overweight/obesity. Whereas, parental overweight and obesity, binge eating, and a faster eating pace than same-age, same-gender peers may be positively correlated with overweight/obesity. ConclusionThe detection rate of overweight and obesity among primary school students in the community in Fengxian District of Shanghai is higher than the national level. Gender, age, parental BMI, parental education level, dietary behaviors and habits are the main influencing factors of overweight/obesity among primary school students.

Objective To investigate the impact of intergenerational caregiving on the brain structure and function of grandparents,and to analyze its correlation with caregiving factors.Methods Healthy adults(66 with grandchildren,24 without grandchildren)were recruited as study subjects,and clinical and MRI data were collected.Resting-state brain functional degree centrality(DC)and surface-based morphometry(SBM)methods were used to compare the differences in brain structure and function between the groups with and without grandchildren.The correlation between the differences in brain regions and △ values with grandchild's age,number,and time spent in childcare were assessed,respectively.Results Compared to the group without grandchildren,the group with grandchildren showed reduced surface area and cortical volume in the left middle temporal gyrus,as well as decreased DC values in the left medial superior frontal gyrus,bilateral orbital superior frontal gyrus,and left anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyrus(P＜0.05),respectively.In the grandchildren group,DC values and △ values in the left orbital superior frontal gyrus,left anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyrus were significantly positively correlated with time spent in childcare.Conclusion The brain structures and functions of grandparents related to empathy and motivation are changed in intergenerational caregiving,which may reveal the neuroplasticity after caring for their grandchildren.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effects and advantages of laparoscopic total mesorectal excision in the treatment of colorectal cancer.Methods:A total of 82 patients with colorectal cancer who received treatment at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from January 2020 to January 2023 were selected for a prospective study. They were randomly assigned to two groups using a random number table, with 41 cases in each group. The control group underwent conventional laparotomy, while the observation group received laparoscopic total mesorectal excision. Clinical efficacy, clinical indicators, and immune function indicators were compared between the two groups.Results:The operation time for patients in the observation group was (1.98 ± 0.31) hours, the length of hospital stay was (8.32 ± 2.38) days, the recovery time for bowel function was (2.15 ± 0.34) days, and the intraoperative blood loss was (112.35 ± 12.66) mL, all of which were shorter and lower than those in the control group [(2.46 ± 0.32) hours, (14.52 ± 2.42) days, (3.25 ± 0.15) days, and (167.78 ± 12.35) mL, t = 6.90, 11.70, 18.95, 20.07, all P < 0.001). The short-term response rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group ( χ2 = 4.10, P < 0.05). The immune function indicators in the observation group, including the CD4 +/CD8 + ratio (1.78 ± 0.54), immunoglobulin A [(3.87 ± 0.73) g/L], and immunoglobulin G [(11.83 ± 2.88) g/L], were all better than those in the control group [(1.36 ± 0.53), (1.78 ± 0.63) g/L, (6.37 ± 2.45) g/L, t = 3.55, 13.88, 9.25, all P < 0.001]. The incidence of complications in the observation group was 2.44% (1/41), which was significantly lower than that in the control group [19.51% (8/41), χ2 = 4.49, P < 0.05]. Conclusions:Laparoscopic total mesorectal excision for patients with colorectal cancer has significant advantages, including faster recovery, less bleeding, and fewer complications, making it more superior to conventional laparotomy.

Both groups were observed for 3 days postoperatively to compare various postoperative clinical indicators, including serum levels of cortisol, adrenaline, C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, direct bilirubin, total bile acid, alkaline phosphatase, and gamma-glutamyl transferase, and the occurrence of postoperative complications. Results:The operative time in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group [(105.30 ± 5.89) minutes vs. (121.36 ± 5.86) minutes, t = 9.86, P < 0.001]. The intraoperative blood loss in the observation group was significantly less than that in the control group [(40.31 ± 4.53) mL vs. (45.20 ± 4.76) mL, t = 3.80, P < 0.001]. The length of hospital stay in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group [(12.01 ± 2.86) days vs. (14.32 ± 2.73) days, t = 2.98, P = 0.005]. The gastrointestinal function recovery time in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group [(31.42 ± 2.59) days vs. (37.62 ± 2.63) days, t = 8.57, P < 0.001]. The bile drainage volume in the observation group was less than that in the control group [(168.69 ± 15.41) mL vs. (275.62 ± 15.32) mL, t = 25.09, P < 0.001]. The serum level of cortisol in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(469.63 ± 20.62) mmol/L vs. (359.65 ± 19.87) mmol/L, t = 19.58, P < 0.001]. The serum level of adrenaline in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(274.62 ± 20.21) ng/L vs. (198.64 ± 20.16) ng/L, t = 13.57, P < 0.001]. The serum level of C-reactive protein in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(3.42 ± 0.37) mg/L vs. (2.74 ± 0.25) mg/L, t = 7.77, P < 0.001]. The serum level of interleukin-6 in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(112.36 ± 8.94) μg/L vs. (87.62 ± 8.63) μg/L, t = 10.15, P < 0.001]. The serum level of direct bilirubin in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(24.52 ± 4.62) μmol/L vs. (35.62 ± 4.87) μmol/L, t = 8.43, P < 0.001]. The serum level of total bile acid in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(10.62 ± 4.21) U/L vs. (17.64 ± 4.16) U/L, t = 6.05, P < 0.001]. The serum level of alkaline phosphatase in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(100.21 ± 10.24) mg/L vs. (112.74 ± 11.25) mg/L, t = 4.20, P < 0.001]. The serum level of gamma-glutamyl transferase in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(122.36 ± 8.94) μg/L vs. (142.62 ± 5.63) μg/L, t = 9.78, P < 0.001]. The incidence of complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [7.69% (2/26) vs. 30.77% (8/26), χ2 = 4.46, P = 0.035]. Conclusion:Compared with T-tube drainage, primary closure following laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and stone extraction can reduce patient stress responses, improve liver function, shorten postoperative recovery time, and result in a lower incidence of complications.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of COVID-19 caused by 2019-nCoV Delta variant in Shangyu district, Shaoxing of Zhejiang province in 2021, and provide evidence for the improvement of COVID-19 control and prevention measures.Methods:The incidence data of COVID-19 in Shangyu from December 7 to 21, 2021 was obtained from Shangyu District Center for Disease Control and Prevention. The epidemiological characteristics of the cases, i.e. the population, time and space distributions, were analyzed, and the incubation period and time-varying reproduction numbers ( R t) were calculated. Results:From December 7 to 21, 2021, a total of 380 COVID-19 cases caused by 2019-nCoV Delta variant were detected in Shangyu, the median age of the cases was 52 years, M ( Q1，Q3: 38, 61). The male to female ratio of the cases was 1∶1.25, and the cases were mainly workers (36.58%) and farmers (27.63%). The epidemic affected 9 townships (or community) of Shangyu, especially Caoe and Baiguan communities with the cases accounting for 57.10% and 31.53% respectively. The median incubation period of cases was 4.00 days, M ( Q1，Q3: 3.00, 5.75). The basic reproduction number ( R0) was 4.06, and the R t was 5.62 in early phase of the outbreak (the highest) and continuously decreased to less than 1.00 within 10 days after the detection of the outbreak. The number of COVID-19 cases decreased to 0 within 14 days after the outbreak (December 7-21), and the main detection methods were screening in centralized isolation (55.53%) and home isolation (40.00%). The infection rates of close contacts and secondary close contacts were 2.06% and 0.46% respectively. Conclusion:The epidemic of COVID-19 in Shangyu characterized by short incubation period, large number of infected people, and case clustering, suggesting the strong transmission of Delta variant (B.1.617.2). Comprehensive prevention and control measures, such as management of close contacts and secondary close contacts, and high-risk area, are essential for the rapid control of the epidemic.
