The"ying-wei imbalance"theory originates from Inner Canon of Yellow Emperor,which refers to the dynamic pathological process of yingfen and weifen circulation,distribution,posture,strength,and weakness due to internal and external disturbance,emphasizing that"ying-wei imbalance"is the key to disease occurrence.The sanjiao,as the"envoy of primordial qi,"is central to yingfen and weifen,and the coordinated operation of yingfen and weifen depends on the promotion of the qi of sanjiao.Therefore,based on the yingfen and weifen theory and sanjiao differentiation and treatment,this paper discusses the etiology and pathogenesis of chronic pulmonary heart disease,as well as the syndrome differentiation approach."Ying-wei imbalance"is the core of this mechanism:in the early stage,the loss of yingfen and weifen nutrition,combined with the deficiency of the qi of sanjiao,allows exogenous pathogens to invade the lungs.During progression,dysfunction in the transportation function of yingfen and weifen,along with the stagnation of the qi of sanjiao,results in pulmonary and cardiac involvement,accompanied by phlegm accumulation and stagnation.The end stage is characterized by the failure of both ying and wei,along with dysfunction of the sanjiao and zang-fu organs,which interact to form a pathological chain of"qi disease involving body."Accordingly,the treatment principle of"harmonizing yingfen and weifen,giving sanjiao treatment"was proposed.This is implemented through three therapeutic strategies:"harmonizing""returning",and"astringing"aimed at restoring balance.In the early stage,treatment focuses on tonifying the lungs and consolidating the exterior to eliminate pathogenic factors and activate stagnation.The selected formula is Buyuan Decoction with modifications to harmonize sanjiao.During the developmental stage,treatment focuses on promoting collaterals and dispersing phlegm,utilizing the modified Xuefu Zhuyu Decocotion to facilitate the restoration of function to the sanjiao.In the final stage,Fuyang Decoction,with modifications,is used to resolve fluid retention and nourish both qi and blood.Discussions are closely focused on the syndrome differentiation system of"sanjiao-yingfen and weifen,"in order to offer a novel perspective on the management of chronic pulmonary heart disease.

Objective:Postdoctoral researchers in Chinese universities commonly face a high risk of mental health issues,such as depression,yet the underlying causes and mechanisms remain unclear.This study aims to explore the influence of childhood socioeconomic status(SES)on depression among postdoctoral researchers and the mediating roles of current subjective SES and perceived stress in this process. Methods:An online survey was conducted among postdoctoral researchers at a university.The survey included a general information questionnaire,the Childhood Socioeconomic Status Scale,the Subjective Socioeconomic Status Scale,the Perceived Stress Scale,and the Patient Health Questionnaire.A total of 505 valid responses were collected.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the data,and the PROCESS macro was employed for chain mediation analysis. Results:Childhood SES was significantly positively correlated with current subjective SES(P<0.05)and significantly negatively correlated with postdoctoral tenure,perceived stress,and depression(all P<0.05).Current subjective SES was significantly negatively correlated with perceived stress and depression(both P<0.05),while perceived stress was significantly positively correlated with depression(P<0.05).The chain mediation effect of childhood SES → current subjective SES → perceived stress → depression was significant(P<0.05). Conclusion:Childhood socioeconomic status can influence depression among postdoctoral researchers through the mediating roles of current subjective socioeconomic status and perceived stress.These findings provide a target for the prevention and intervention of depression in postdoctoral populations and offer a reference for the development of mental health promotion strategies for young university faculty.
