Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Guhong Injection for the treatment of patients with coronary microvascular dysfunction(CMD)of qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome.Methods Sixty cases of patients with CMD of qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome who were admitted to Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from June 2021 to August 2022 were randomly divided into the control group and the trial group according to the random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.The control group was treated with conventional western medicine,and the trial group was treated with Guhong Injection on the basis of treatment for the control group.The course of treatment for the two groups covered 10 days.The changes in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,and levels of lipid indicators,serum inflammatory factors and endothelial factors in the two groups were observed before and after treatment.After treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated.Results(1)During the trial,three cases in the control group and two cases in the trial group fell off and a total of 55 cases were finally included in the statistical analysis of efficacy,including 27 cases in the control group and 28 cases in the trial group.(2)After 10 days of treatment,the total effective rate of the trial group was 89.29%(25/28),and that of the control group was 40.74%(11/27),and the intergroup comparison(tested by chi-square test)showed that the therapeutic efficacy of the trial group was significantly superior to that of the control group(P<0.01).(3)After treatment,the TCM syndrome scores of patients in both groups were decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the decrease in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(4)After treatment,the levels of lipid indicators triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)in the two groups of patients were decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)was increased compared with that before treatment(P<0.05).The intergroup comparison showed that the decrease of TG,TC,and LDL-C levels as well as the increase of HDL-C level in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).(5)After treatment,the serum levels of inflammatory factors high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),interleukin 6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α)in the two groups of patients were decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the decrease in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(6)After treatment,the serum level of endothelial factor nitric oxide(NO)in the two groups of patients was increased(P<0.05)and the serum endothelin 1(ET-1)level was decreased compared with that before treatment(P<0.05),and the increase of serum NO level,as well as the decrease of serum ET-1 level in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion Based on the conventional treatment in western medicine,the application of Guhong Injection in the treatment of patients with CMD of qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome exerts remarkable efficacy,which can effectively alleviate the symptoms,regulate the levels of blood lipids,reduce the inflammatory response,and improve the endothelial function.

Objective: To retrospectively analyze the efficacy and prognostic factors of postoperative intensity modulated radiotherapy for grade Ⅱ gliomas. Methods: Retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with postoperative grade Ⅱ glioma in our hospital from Jan. 2010 to Dec. 2018. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival, and the secondary endpoint was overall survival. Correlative analyses of prognosis by age, gender, initial resection status, the maximum diameter of the lesions, bi-hemisphere, astrocytoma, chemoradiation, adjuvant chemotherapy were conducted. Results: A total of 109 cases with grade Ⅱ glioma were enrolled. The follow-up rate was 91.75%, including 10 cases dead and 27 relapsed. There were 24 cases (88.9%) of in-field failure, and 3 cases (11.1%) of out-field failure. 14 cases of recurrence occurred in 81 cases of total resection group, accounting for 17.3%, and 13 in 28 cases of subtotal resection group, accounting for 46.4%. The recurrence rate in the subtotal resection group was significantly higher than that in the total resection group (χ ²=9.484, P<0.05). The 1-, 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-year progression-free survival rates were 92.5%, 86.0%, 80.6%, 77.5% and 66.8%, respectively. The 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-year overall survival rates were 97.2%, 90.8%, 87.7% and 84.5%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that patients with subtotal resection(HR=3.608, P<0.05) and bi-hemisphere(HR=3.183, P<0.05)were significantly correlated with the progression free survival. Conclusions Postoperative intensity modulated radiotherapy for grade Ⅱ gliomas can achieve a better PFS. Recurrence in the radiation field is the main failure mode. Initial resection status and bi-hemisphere of tumor are important influential factors for PFS of grade Ⅱ gliomas patients.

Objectives: To investigate the total fluids intake among college students in spring from Hebei. Methods: In March 2017, the subjects were recruited in a college in Baoding, Hebei Province. 156 students completed the investigation. Total drinking fluids was assessed by 7-day 24-hour fluid intake questionnaire, with a quantitative tool. The water from food was assessed by duplicate portion method. The sources of total fluids intake among subjects were analysed. Results: The age of subjects was (19.8±1.1) years old, including 80 male students. The median amounts of total fluids intake, total drinking fluids and water from food were 2 324, 1 135 and 1 174 ml, respectively. The proportions of total drinking fluids and water from food in total fluids intake were 51%±9% and 49%±10%. Only 19.9% (n=31) and 18.6% (n=29) of college students had adequate total fluids intake and total drinking fluids, according to the recommendation of China. The median amounts of total fluids intake, total drinking fluids and water from food were 3 210, 1 860 and 1 093 ml/d, respectively. The proportion of total drinking fluids in total fluids intake was 61%±7%, which were all higher than those who did not reach the recommended intake (2 158, 1 000, 1 149 ml/d; drinking fluids accounting for 46%±8% of total fluids intake) (P<0.05). Conclusion The amounts of total fluids intake and total drinking fluids of college students in Hebei Province are lower than the recommended intake in China. The contributions of total drinking fluids and water from food to total fluids intake were nearly same.

Objective: To investigate the food source of water of college students from Hebei Province in spring. Methods: In March 2017, the subjects were recruited in a college in Baoding, Hebei Province. 156 students completed the investigation. All foods were collected for 3 consecutive days using duplicate portion study combined with weighing method to test the water content of various foods. To analyze the water content of the food and calculate the proportion to the total amount of food water intake, the edible parts of each meal were divided into staple food, dishes, porridge, soup and snacks. Body mass index (BMI) was grouped according to quartiles, and the differences in food intake and food water sources among subjects of different genders and BMI were compared. Results: The age of subjects was (19.8±1.1) years old, including 80 male students. The median intake of staple food, dishes, porridge, soup and snacks per day was 562 g, 743 g, 111 g, 102 g and 0 g, respectively. The median intake of water from staple food, dishes, porridge, soup and snacks per day was 301 ml/d, 620 ml/d, 97 ml/d, 93 ml/d and 0 ml/d, respectively. The median ratio of water intake to total food water intake of staple food, dishes, porridge, soup and snacks was 27%, 53%, 8%, 8% and 0%, respectively. The median intake of water from staple food and dishes in male students was significantly higher than that of female students (P<0.05). The amount of water intake from porridge of female students was significantly higher than that of male students (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the water intake from soup and snacks between different genders. There was no significant difference in food intake and food water sources among college students with different BMI (P>0.05). Conclusion The food source of water of college students from Hebei Province in spring is mainly based on dishes and staple foods. The food source of water for boys and girls is different.

Objectives: To investigate the total fluids intake, volume of urine and hydration status among college students from Hebei Province in spring. Methods: In March 2017, the subjects were recruited in a college in Baoding, Hebei Province. 156 students completed the investigation. Total drinking fluids was assessed by 7-day 24-hour fluid intake questionnaire, with a quantitative tool. The water from food was assessed by the duplicate portion method. The urine samples of 24-hour was collected for 3 consecutive days, and the volume, osmolality, pH and specific gravity of urine were measured. Hydration status was grouped to three types according to the urine osmolality (mOsm/kg), namely, optimal hydration (urine osmolality ≤500), middle hydration (500< urine osmolality ≥800) and dehydration (urine osmolality >800), and the differences among subjects in different genders and hydration statuses were compared. Results: The age of all subjects was (19.8±1.1) years old, including 80 male students. The median amounts of total fluids intake, total drinking fluids, water from food and urine volume were 2 324, 1 135, 1 174 and 1 279 ml/d, respectively. The volume of urine among males was 1 272 ml/d, which was not significantly different from that of females (1 304 ml/d) (P>0.05). The osmolality and specific gravity of urine among males were 688 mOsm/kg and 1.017, which were higher than those of females (493 mOsm/kg, 1.014) (P<0.05). But the pH of males was 6.6±0.3, which was lower than that of females (6.7±0.3) (P<0.05). Only 37.2% (n=58) of college students were in optimal hydration status. The median of the amount of total drinking fluids among subjects in optimal hydration status was 301, 448 ml/d higher than that in middle hydration status and dehydration, respectively (P<0.05). The proportion of females in optimal hydration status was 51.3% (n=39), which was higher than that of males 23.8% (n=19) (P<0.05). Conclusion Large proportion of college students in Hebei had lower total drinking fluids than the recommended intake of China, and the volume of urine was equal to the amount of total drinking fluids among the college students. Only 37.2% of college students were in optimal hydration status, and the proportion of female college students in optimal hydration status was larger than that of males.

At present, methods of water-intake survey include government, industry, sector statistics data, dietary survey (24 hours dietary recall, dietary record and food frequency questionnaire), fluid intake survey (retrospective fluid-intake questionnaire, 1-5 days 24 hours fluid-intake survey, 7 days 24 hours fluid-intake record), weighing method with the food composition table, weighing method, duplicate portion method and chemical analysis, and so on. The method of 7 days 24 hours fluid-intake record is an internationally recognized and authoritative method for fluid-intake survey with the highest accuracy, which can reflect the differences of fluid intake between working and non-working days, and can obtain detailed data on behaviors and patterns of fluid water, such as the time, types and places of fluid intake. The method of combining weighing method, duplicate portion method and chemical analysis is used to analyze water intake from food with the highest accuracy, which can be used in an extensive range of population and areas, but with high cost and complex operating steps. It is of great practical significance to compare and evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of different methods about water-intake survey, which will be helpful for researchers to choose appropriate methods for water-intake survey to obtain accurate and representative data in various areas, different population, and complex circumstances.

Objective: To investigate the association of within-day drinking occasions with average amount consumed per drinking occasion during spring among college students in Hebei Province and to provide the basic data for the revision of quantity of consumption among Chinese residents. Methods: A total of 156 college students in Hebei Province were selected by using simple random sampling method. Information on daily amount and types of water consumption was recorded using the 7-day 24-hour recording method. The daily amount and type of drinking water by sex and BMI were analyzed and compared. Results: The daily median drinking water intake was 1 135 mL; the daily median number of drinking occasion was 6, with 34.6% of participants less than 6 drinking occasions; the median amount consumed per drinking occasion was 177 mL. The daily number of water and plain water drinking occasion of females were higher than males(χ2/Z=8.34, -2.03, P<0.05); the amount consumed per drinking occasion, the amount of plain water and beverages consumed per drinking occasion of males were higher than females(χ2/Z=23.86, -5.48, 3.70, P<0.01); The differences of the amount of plain water consumed per day among students and their BMI were of statistical significance(χ2=9.17, P=0.03), the amount of drinking water each time was positively correlated with body surface area(r=0.18, P=0.03), and frequency of drinking water was positively correlated with the amount of drinking water, negatively correlated with the amount of drinking water each time. The amount of drinking water was positively correlated with the amount of drinking water each time(r=0.30, -0.47, 0.61, P<0.01). Conclusion There is a certain proportion of unhealthy drinking behavior among college students; drinking behavior is different by sex and BMI. With the increase of drinking occasions, the amount consumed in each drinking occasion decreases, but total amount of drinking water increases.

Objective: To investigate the total amount and types of fluid intake among college students in Hebei Province during spring and to provide scientific basis for fluid-intake education. Methods: A simple random sampling method was used to select 156 college students from a college in Hebei Province. The information on amount and type of fluid intake was recorded using the 7-day 24-hour recording method. A separate analysis was performed on people who consumed beverages during the 7 days. Results: The median intake of plain water, milk, sugar-sweetened beverages and other beverages was 866 mL, 43 mL, 43 mL and 2 mL, respectively. The median of plain water, milk, sugar-sweetened beverages and other beverages by the beverage-consumers was 845 mL, 36 mL, 63 mL and 11 mL, respectively. The intake of plain water and sugar-sweetened beverages in male students was significantly higher(Z=2.31, 3.03; 2.31, 2.11, P<0.05), and milk consumption was lower than female students of these two groups of people(Z=-2.73, -2.23, P<0.05). The intake of other beverages in male students was higher than that of female students, but only significant among beverage-consumers(Z=3.31, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the total amount of different fluid types among different BMI(P>0.05). Conclusion College students in Hebei Province mainly drink plain water. Sex difference is observed in the types of fluid intake.
