Objective:To assess the impact of the construction of smoke-free government on the smoking and cessation behaviors of staff members.Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. The study used stratified random cluster sampling method to select 144 government institutions from 31 Provinces (Autonomous Regions and Municipalities) and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. The survey was carried out between October and November, 2023 by filling out questionnaires online among the insiders of the institutions and all the smoking staff members. The main indicators included the number of smokers before and after the construction of smoke-free governments and the measures for the construction of smoke-free governments. 144 questionnaires from insiders were recovered, all of which were included in the analysis; 1 776 questionnaires from smokers were recovered, including 1 716 valid questionnaires. The SAS 9.4 was used to perform χ 2 test and log-binomial regression analysis. Results:The percentage of smoking staff members decreased from 8.81% before the construction to 6.70% after the construction, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2=63.23, P<0.001). Comprehensive smoking ban in indoor public places ( OR=2.301, 95% CI: 1.433-3.694), punishment mechanism for smoking staff members ( OR=1.219, 95% CI: 1.124-1.322), smoking cessation competitions ( OR=1.865, 95% CI: 1.234-2.818) and reimbursement for or provision of smoking cessation medications ( OR=2.210, 95% CI: 1.002-4.874) were facilitators to motivate the smoking staff members to quit (all P<0.01). Numbers of smoking leaders ( OR=0.858, 95% CI: 0.807-0.913) and smoking years of smoking staff members ( OR=0.932, 95% CI: 0.918-0.946) negatively influenced the smoking staff members to quit (both P<0.001). Conclusions:The construction of smoke-free governments can effectively promote the smoking cessation behaviors of smoking staff members. In addition, comprehensive smoke-free policies, punishment mechanism for smoking staff members and activities such as smoking cessation competitions, and reimbursement for or provision of smoking cessation medications are important.

Objective:To describe the current situation on quit intention and quit attempts among current smokers aged 15 years and above in China and explore the main factors affecting their smoking cessation behaviors.Methods:The subjects were people aged 15 years and above in China. A stratified multi-phased randomized cluster sampling method was used. The survey covered 200 districts/counties in 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government), including 19 376 people under investigation. The data were weighted with SAS 9.4 for complex sampling analysis, and the frequency and weighted component ratio were used for description. The influencing factors were studied using the Rao Scott χ2 test and unconditional multivariate logistic regression. Results:Among current smokers, 6.63% reported that they planned to quit smoking in the next month, 5.44% for men and 8.49% for women. 17.96% of the current smokers made quit attempts in the past 12 months, with 17.80% men and 22.15% women. People who smoke occasionally ( OR=3.42, 95% CI: 2.09-5.59) made quit attempts in the past ( OR=4.91, 95% CI: 0.33-0.52) and knew that smoking would lead to three diseases ( OR=2.24, 95% CI: 1.48-3.40) had higher quit intention. People who occasionally smoke ( OR=1.68, 95% CI: 1.20-2.34) received smoking cessation suggestions from medical staff ( OR=1.96, 95% CI: 1.62-2.37), were a ware of that smoking causes three diseases ( OR=1.63, 95% CI: 1.32-2.02) and had smoking prohibition regulations in indoor areas of their homes, had a higher rate of quit attempts. Conclusion:Providing effective smoking cessation intervention services and creating a supportive tobacco control environment are significant in promoting smoking cessation behavior.

Objective:To investigate secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure among non-current smokers aged 15 and over and its influencing factors in China in 2010 and 2018.Methods:The 2010 and 2018 China Adult Tobacco Surveys used multistage stratified cluster random sampling methods to obtain national representative samples across 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in China. This study selected non-current smokers aged 15 and over as the research subjects to describe the general demographic characteristics, perceptions of SHS hazards, attitudes towards smoking bans in indoor areas in public places, and SHS exposure and the smoking restriction regulations in different places. The Rao-Scott χ2 test was used to compare the rates, and the unconditional logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of SHS exposure. All the subjects in the analysis were weighted based on a complex sampling design. Results:Among non-current smokers aged 15 and over, from 2010 to 2018, the percentage of indoor smokers had decreased from 84.7% to 71.9%. The rates of people who saw smoking in various places declined with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.001). The exposure to SHS for females, people aged 45-64, teachers, medical staff, workers in enterprises, businesses, waiters, and people who live in rural and central areas declined. The differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). In 2018, the percentage of SHS exposure for those who reported a comprehensive smoking ban in households or allowed smoking in certain areas was lower than for those who reported allowed or without a smoking ban. Among those aged 25-44, SHS exposure for those who reported complete smoking prohibition in workplaces was lower than those who reported allowed or without smoking prohibition ( OR=0.65, 95% CI: 0.49-0.87). The proportion of SHS exposure for those who believe that smoking should not be allowed in indoor areas of 0-5 public places is higher than that smoking should not be allowed in the indoor spaces of 8 public places ( OR=2.13, 95% CI: 1.35-3.36). Among people aged 45-64, the proportions of SHS exposure for teachers ( OR=0.37, 95% CI: 0.17-0.78) and medical staff ( OR=0.35, 95% CI: 0.16-0.76) and staff working in agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, fishery, and water conservancy were lower than governmental staff ( OR=0.49, 95% CI: 0.29-0.84). Conclusions:Data from the decreased exposure of Chinese non-current smokers aged 15 and over to SHS suggests the initial achievement through constructing a smoke-free environment, but continued efforts are needed. It is necessary to actively advocate for smoke-free families, strengthen publicity and education on the hazards of tobacco and SHS, and improve the skills of non-smokers in rejecting SHS exposure.

Objective:To investigate the exposure to tobacco advertisements and promotions among Chinese adults aged 15 and above, identify the publicity channels and forms of tobacco advertising and promotion in 2010 and 2018, and implicate further tobacco control measures in China.Methods:A multistage, stratified, randomized cluster sampling design was used in 2010 and 2018 China Adult Tobacco Survey, with national representativeness. 13 354 and 19 376 permanent residents were selected in the 2010 and 2018 surveys. SAS 9.4 software was applied for data analysis, and all the data were weighted based on a complex sampling design. Rao Scott χ2 test was used for group comparison of a single factor. Results:In 2010 and 2018, 19.61% and 18.14% of the survey respondents did see tobacco advertising and promotion. From 2010 to 2018, there was no significant change in the situation of tobacco advertisements and promotions. Among those who had gone to a cigarette shop, the proportion of seeing tobacco advertisements increased from 29.28% in 2010 to 43.28% in 2018. Among those who had seen tobacco advertisements on TV, the rate fell from 50.93% in 2010 to 28.58% in 2018. Among those who had gone to movie theaters, the proportion of seeing tobacco advertisements increased from 2.17% in 2010 to 9.89% in 2018. Among those who had used the Internet, the proportion of seeing tobacco advertisements online rose from 19.20% in 2010 to 42.30% in 2018. In terms of tobacco promotion, the percentages of people who had seen tobacco promotions, cigarette price discounts, cigarette discount coupons, gifts, and other preferential activities in various places in the past 30 days were 4.99% vs. 9.30%, 0.78% vs. 4.09%, 0.04% vs. 0.33% and 0.98% vs. 3.33% in 2010 and 2018, respectively ( P<0.001). Conclusions:Tobacco advertising and promotion are still prevalent in China, with no significant change in 2010 and 2018. Tobacco advertising and promotion have been with the constant changes and development of media platforms. It is necessary to improve the implementation of relevant policies, comprehensively ban tobacco advertisements and promotions, and strengthen the supervision of ads and promotions.

Berberine (BBR) is known as a classic drug for intestinal infection treatment.BBR inhibits intestinal bacteria,which is the core of its role in the treatment of intestinal infection.With the survival of local intestinal bacteria and its related metabolites on the physiological and pathological functions of the body continue to recognize the impact of it,more and more literatures have presented the effect of BBR through the impact of intestinal bacteria on the body glycol-lipid metabolism,even brain function.This allows us to re-understand the pathophysiology of BBR in inhibiting gut microbiome.In this paper,the antibacterial activity of BBR was reviewed and analyzed.The possible molecular target of BBR was analyzed according to the characteristics of prokaryotes gene expression,which was helpful to the in-depth study of BBR on intestinal bacteria.Thus,a more comprehensive understanding of the pharmacological effects of BBR is given.

Twenty eight patients with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) underwent continuous venovenous hemofiltration (CVVH)in ICU from June 2003 to June 2008, including 13 cases treated with predilution mode and 15 with postdilution mode. The changes of oxygenate index( PaO2/FiO2 )during CVVH were retrospectively analyzed. The total case fatality rate of this group of patients was 46%(13/28). There was a significant increase in PaO2/FiO2 of 28 cases during the first 48 h of CVVH (P ＜0. 05);the levels of PaO2/FiO2 in predilution group had increased significantly within 48 h during CVVH (P＜0. 05), while those in postdilution group had not significantly changed (P ＞ 0. 05). There was a significant increase in Pa02/FiO2 for the survival patients during the first 48h CVVH( P ＜ 0. 05 ), while no significantly change in the fatal cases(P ＞0. 05 ). In summary, oxygenate function and outcome of patients with MODS can be improved by CVVH, and predilution may be a more effective mode.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of motor on functional recovery of the lower limb in hemiplegic patients after cerebral infarction. Methods62 patients recovering from cerebral infarction were divided into the control group (30 cases) and motor imagery group (32 cases). All patients received routine treatment and a motor relearning program. Patients in the motor imagery group were given mental practice in activities of the lower limb. They were assessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessments (FMA) and Modified Barthel Index (MBI) before and after treatment. ResultsThe scores of FMA and MBI were improved in the motor imagery group compared with those in the control group (P<0.05) after treatment. ConclusionMotor imagery can facilitate the recovery of lower limb function in patients with hemiplegia.

Objective To observe the effect of scalp acupuncture on cognitive and motor functions of stroke patients in recovery stage.Methods80 stroke patients with cognitive disorder were randomly divided into the scalp acupuncture group (n=41) and control group (n=39). All patients of two groups were treated with routine therapy and rehabilitation training, but the cases of the scalp acupuncture group were added with scalp acupuncture. The cognitive function, motor function and activities of daily living (ADL) of all patients were assessed by delitescence and amplitude of event-related potential (ERP) P300, Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Barthel Index (BI) respectively before and 3 months after treatment.ResultsAfter treatment, P300 delitescence of the patients in the scalp acupuncture group shorten to 38 ms in average while in the control group shorten only to 17 ms, the therapeutic effect of the scalp acupuncture group was superior to that of the control group ( P<0.05). The scores of FMA and BI of the patients in the scalp acupuncture group were also better than those in the control group ( P<0.05).ConclusionScalp acupuncture can efficiently improve the cognitive function of stroke patients in the recovery stage, and promote the recovery of motor function and ADL.
