Yuejuwan is a classic formula widely used by doctors to relieve liver and depression, with precise clinical efficacy in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The authors used bibliometric methods to collect and collate 495 ancient data related to Yuejuwan, and 105 valid data were screened out, involving 68 ancient Chinese medical books. After systematic verification of the origin of the formula of Yuejuwan, the main treatment symptoms, the principle of the formula, the composition of the drug, the dosage, the preparation method, the decoction method, and other information, the results showed that Yuejuwan originated from the Danxi Xinfa (《丹溪心法》) of the Yuan Dynasty by ZHU Zhenheng, and it is composed of five medicines, namely Atractylodis Rhizoma, Cyperi Rhizom, Chuanxiong Rhizoma, Massa Medicata Fermentata, and Gardeniae Fructus. In terms of drug base, Atractylodis Rhizoma, Cyperi Rhizom, Chuanxiong Rhizoma, and Gardeniae Fructus are in line with the records in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia, and Massa Medicata Fermentata is used. The preparation method is as follows: Massa Medicata Fermentata and Gardeniae Fructus are fried, and Cyperi Rhizoma is roasted in vinegar. Chuanxiong Rhizoma is used in the raw form, and Atractylodis Rhizoma is prepared with rice swill. The formula can regulate Qi and relieve depression and broaden the middle and remove fullness. It is clinically used for the treatment of six types of depression syndromes, chest and diaphragm plumpness, abdominal distension and leg acid, acid swallowing and vomiting, eating and drinking disharmony, toothache, mouth and tongue sores, and other diseases. The most used dosage of the formula in the ancient records through the ages is converted into the modern dosage, namely 3.05 g Atractylodis Rhizoma, 3.05 g Cyperi Rhizoma, 3.05 g Chuanxiong Rhizoma, 3.05 g Massa Medicata Fermentata, and 3.05 g Gardeniae Fructus, and the daily dosage is 15.25 g. The converted dosage is similar to that recorded in the 2020 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The formula is in pill form, and medicine should be taken with lukewarm boiled water after the meal. Through the excavation of the ancient literature related to Yuejuwan, the key information of the formula is identified, with a view to providing a more accurate reference for the clinical application of Yuejuwan and subsequent in-depth investigation.

Objective:To investigate the relationships among coping styles,negative life events,meaning in life,and psychological resilience in adolescents.Methods:A total of 1 434 adolescents aged 13 to 17 years comple-ted online questionnaire survey.The Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire(SCSQ),Adolescent Self-Rating Life E-vents Checklist(ASLEC),Chinese Meaning in Life Questionnaire(C-MLQ),and Connor-Davidson resilience scale(CD-RISC)were used to assess coping styles,perceived impact of negative life events,experience and pursuit of meaning in life,and ability to cope with and adapt to adversity,respectively.Logistic regression was used to explore the associations among these variables.Results:A total of 723 students(50.4%)tended to adopt negative coping styles when facing adverse events.Positive coping styles were negatively associated with being in senior high school(OR=0.62,P<0.05)and impact of life events(OR=0.97,P<0.001),while positively associated with sense of meaning in life(OR=1.04,P<0.001)and psychological resilience(OR=1.04,P<0.001).Conclusion:Among adolescents,positive coping styles are inversely associated with impact of negative life events,and positively associ-ated with both the sense of life meaning and psychological resilience.

Purpose To investigate the relationship be-tween the expressions of CD3,CD4,CD8,CD20,CD68,PD-1 and PD-L1 and the clinical prognosis of peritoneal mesothelioma(PM).Methods Clinical data of 69 PM patients were collect-ed.EnVision two-step immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of CD3,CD4,CD8,CD20,CD68,PD-1 and PD-L1 in PM.Associations between expression levels and survival were estimated by univariate and multivariate Cox pro-portional-hazards models.Results There were no significant differences in the expressions of CD3,CD4,CD8,CD20,CD68,and PD-1 in tumor infiltrating lymphocytes(TILs)of ep-ithelioid and non-epithelioid PM.The expression of PD-L1 in non-epithelioid PM TILs was higher than that in epithelioid PM TILs,but the difference was not statistically significant.The median overall survival(mOS)time of PM was 19.1 months.Multivariate models identified asbestos exposure(P=0.002),PCI score(P=0.034),histological type(P=0.036),and CD4 expression(P=0.043)was independent prognostic factors for PM.Conclusion Asbestos exposure,PCI score,histologi-cal type and CD4 expression in TILs may exert significant im-pacts on survival of PM patients.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture combined with antihypertensive drugs in the treatment of essential hypertension through meta-analysis.Methods:RCTs about acupuncture combined with antihypertensive drugs in the treatment of essential hypertension were retrieved from CNKI, VIP, WANFANG, CBM, PubMed, Embase and Web of Science from the establishment of the databases to January 28, 2022. The risk and quality of literature publication bias were evaluated according to Cochrane 5.1.0 System Evaluation Manual, and relevant data were extracted. RevMan 5.4 software was used for meta-analysis.Results:A total of 36 RCTs involving 2 905 patients were included. Meta-analysis results showed that compared with antihypertensive drugs, acupuncture alone demonstrated advantages in reducing systolic blood pressure [ SMD=-0.70 (-1.05, -0.36), P<0.01], diastolic blood pressure [ SMD=-0.69(-1.06, -0.32), P<0.01], antihypertensive efficacy [ RR=1.11 (1.04, 1.19), P<0.01], symptomes efficacy [ RR=1.21 (1.11, 1.31), P<0.01] and comprehensive efficacy [ RR=1.35 (1.16, 1.57), P<0.01], without serious adverse reactions. Conclusion:Acupuncture alone has good clinical efficacy and safety in the treatment of essential hypertension, compared with antihypertensive drugs alone. However, researches with large samples and high quality are still needed to support the conclusion.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of learning initiative on teaching effectiveness.Methods:The research subjects were the 2nd year medical students of Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology. The learning initiative factor was calculated from the data of the attendance registration of the on-line learning of Physiology, and the performance of the on-line test was used as an evaluation indicator of teaching effectiveness. SPSS software was used to perform correlation analysis between the learning initiative factor and teaching effectiveness. Results:We found that learning initiative could significantly affect the teaching effectiveness, with differences among different specialties. There was a positive correlation between learning initiative and teaching effectiveness in clinical and pediatric medicine, while no correlation was observed in preventive medicine and medical imaging.Conclusion:In conclusion, learning initiative can affect teaching effectiveness, and the intensity of this effect shows difference among different specialties.

Background/Aims:
Endoscopic wound suturing is an important factor that affects the ability to remove large and full-thickness lesions during endoscopic resection. We aimed to evaluate the effect of a traction metal clip with a fishhook-like device on wound sutures after endoscopic resection.
Methods:
From July 2020 to April 2021, patients who met the enrollment criteria were treated with a fishhook-like device during the operation to suture the postoperative wound (group A). Patients with similar conditions and similar size wounds who were treated with a “purse-string suture” to suture the wounds were retrospectively analyzed as the control group (group B). Difference in the suture rate, adverse events, time required for suturing, and number of metal clips were compared between the two groups.
Results:
The time required for suturing was 7.72±0.51 minutes in group A and 11.50±0.91 minutes in group B. This difference was statistically significant (F=13.071, p=0.001). The number of metal clamps used in group A averaged 8.1 pieces/case, and the number of metal clamps used in group B averaged 7.3 pieces/case. This difference was not statistically significant (F=0.971, p>0.05).
Conclusions
The traction metal clip with the fishhook-like device is ingeniously designed and easy to operate. It has a good suture effect on the wound after endoscopic submucosal dissection and effectively prevents postoperative adverse events.
