The analysis presented here is based on the blood components of Guanxin Qiwei tablets, the key anti-atherosclerosis pathway of Guanxin Qiwei tablets was screened by network pharmacology, and the anti-atherosclerosis mechanism of Guanxin Qiwei tablets was clarified and verified by cell experiments. HPLC-Q-Exactive-MS/MS technique was used to analyze the components of Guanxin Qiwei tablets into blood, to determine the precise mass charge ratio of the compounds, and to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the components by using secondary mass spectrometry fragments and literature comparison. Finally, a total of 42 components of Guanxin Qiwei tablets into blood were identified. To better understand the interactions, we employed the Swiss Target Prediction database to predict the associated targets. Atherosclerosis (AS) disease targets were searched in disease databases Genecard, OMIM and Disgent, and 181 intersection targets of disease targets and component targets were obtained by Venny 2.1.0 software. Protein interactions were analyzed by String database. The 32 core targets were selected by Cytscape software. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis were performed in DAVID database. It was found that the anti-atherosclerosis pathways of Guanxin Qiwei tablets mainly include lipid metabolism and atherosclerosis and AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in diabetic complications and other signal pathways. The core targets and the core compounds were interlinked, and it was found that cryptotanshinone and tanshinone ⅡA in Guanxin Qiwei tablets were well bound to TNF, PPAR

Basal insulin is essential for blood glucose management. However, its clinical application in China faces multiple challenges such as delayed initiation, low initial dosage, and inadequate dose adjustments. The BEYOND series of studies were conducted to provide an evidence-based basis for optimizing basal insulin use in China. Moreover, basal insulin is advancing towards weekly preparation. Phase Ⅲ clinical trials have demonstrated that weekly basal insulin is both effective and safe, and its reduced injection frequency may help address the challenges associated with basal insulin use in China.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75%(27/36);boys accounted for 64%(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86%)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53%)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61%)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36%)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75%)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72%)and seizures in 10 neonates(34%).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33%,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44%(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Objective:
Develop a nutrition health educational guidance outline for primary and secondary school students which is adapted to the characteristics of Shanghai and meets the cognitive level of students at different levels, so as to provide a reference for planning the content and target of nutrition health education among students of different school stages.
Methods:
Through literature search and qualitative interviews, the framework of nutrition health education for primary and secondary school students in Shanghai was developed, and 21 experts in the fields of nutrition, school health and health education were invitied to conduct a Delphi consultation, and determined the content of nutrition and health education for students in each school section based on the consultation results.
Results:
The recall rate for both rounds of consultation was 100%, the degree of expert authority was 0.74 and 0.89 , and the coordination coefficients were 0.31 and 0.33( P <0.01), suggesting high credibility of expert opinion. The resulting guidance outline included 2 first level entries, 6 second level entries, 60 third level entries and corresponding entry explanations. The 2 first level entries were rational nutrition and food safety; the 6 second level entries were food and nutrients, balanced diet, good eating habits, nutritional practices, good hygiene habits and food borne diseases; the 60 third level entries needed to be studied in Level 1 were 24, Level 2 were 41, Level 3 were 55, and Level 4 were 59.
Conclusion
The nutrition health educational guidance outline for primary and secondary school students in Shanghai developed in this study focuses on key nutrition knowledge, rational dietary behaviors and nutrition practice skills, which can provide a reference and basis for the phased implementation of nutrition health education in primary and secondary schools.
