OBJECTIVE To study the efficacy of Tianjiang xueshuantong pills in the treatment of coronary heart disease. METHODS In accordance with the common pathogenesis of coronary heart disease， acute myocardial ischemia model， hyperlipidemia model， blood stasis model， and carotid artery thrombosis model were established using Wistar rats or SD rats as the experimental subjects. The effects of Tianjiang xueshuantong pills administered at high， medium， and low doses （0.6， 1.2 and 2.4 g/kg） on hemodynamic parameters and myocardial enzyme markers [lactate dehydrogenase （LDH）， creatine kinase-MB （CK- MB）]， oxidative stress factors [superoxide dismutase （SOD）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione （GSH）]， inflammatory cytokines [tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， IL-1β， monocyte chemotactic protein-1 （MCP-1）， intercellular adhesion molecule-1 （ICAM-1）]， myocardial infarction percentage， serum lipid indexes [total cholesterol （TC）， triglycerides （TG）， low-density lipoprotein （LDL）， high-density lipoprotein （HDL）]， platelet aggregation function 话：022-84845240。E-mail：jiangx@tjipr.com [maximum aggregation rate （MAR）]， and thrombus formation indexes [thrombosis time， thrombus mass， thrombus protein content， plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 （PAI-1）， and tissue-type plasminogen activator （t-PA）] were evaluated in the rat models. RESULTS In myocardial ischemia tests， Tianjiang xueshuantong pills significantly reduced the percentage of myocardial infarction and the levels of CK-MB， LDH， MDA， GSH， IL-6， TNF-α， IL- 1β， and MCP-1 in serum （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. In hyperlipidemia tests， high dose of Tianjiang xueshuantong pills significantly reduced the serum levels of TC， LDL and significantly increased the level of HDL in rats after 2 weeks and 4 weeks of administration. In blood stasis tests， different doses of Tianjiang xueshuantong pills significantly reduced MAR of rats （P＜0.01）. In artery thrombosis tests， high dose of Tianjiang xueshuantong pills significantly prolonged the time of thrombosis formation （P＜ 0.01）， significantly reduced the weight and protein content of thrombus and the level of PAI-1 in serum （P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS Tianjiang xueshuantong pills exert therapeutic effects on coronary heart disease through multi-dimensional synergistic actions， including anti-myocardial ischemia， lipid-lowering， and anti-thrombotic effects.

BackgroundNon-suicidal self-injury （NSSI） behavior among adolescents has become a global public health concern. Anxiety and depression are considered key factors influencing NSSI behavior， while social support may play a protective role in alleviating emotional and behavioral issues. However， existing research has primarily focused on the direct impact of individual factors on NSSI behavior， with insufficient exploration of the combined effects of anxiety， depression and social support. ObjectiveTo investigate the direct effect of anxiety on NSSI， the mediating role of depression and the moderating role of social support in relationship between anxiety and NSSI behavior， thus to provide references for the prevention and intervention of NSSI behavior among adolescents. MethodsIn February 2022， a total of 40 820 students in grades 7 to 12 across 10 middle schools in a district of Chengdu were selected as participants， and they were assessed using Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 item （GAD-7）， Patient's Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item （PHQ-9）， Social Support Scale for Urban Students （SSSUS） and Adolescent Self-Harm Scale （ASHS）. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the correlations between scale scores among adolescents with NSSI behaviors. Mediation and moderation analyses were performed using Process 3.5 in SPSS， and the significance was tested with bootstrapping. The interaction was visualized by using simple slope analysis. ResultsAmong 34 534 （84.60%） valid respondents， 542 adolescents （1.57%） reported engaging in NSSI behavior. Significant differences in gender， GAD-7 scores， PHQ-9 scores， and SSSUS scores were observed between NSSI behavior group and non-NSSI group （χ²/t=62.889， 71.120， 94.365， -41.464， P<0.01）.Adolesents with NSSI showed positive correlations between GAD-7 scores and both ASHS and PHQ-9 scores （r=0.158， 0.166， P<0.01）. PHQ-9 scores were positively correlated with ASHS scores （r=0.364， P<0.01）， but negatively correlated with SSSUS scores （r=-0.290， P<0.01）. SSSUS scores were negatively correlated with ASHS scores （r=-0.247， P<0.01）. Depression partially mediated the relationship between anxiety and NSSI behavior， with an effect size of 0.544 （95% CI： 0.162~0.944）， accounting for 35.79% of the total effect. Social support moderated the relationship between depression and NSSI bahavior， with an effect value of -0.082 （95% CI： -0.135~-0.029）. ConclusionAnxiety not only directly influences NSSI bahavior among adolescents， also indirectly exacerbates it through depression， while social support mitigates the impact of depression on NSSI behavior. ［Funded by Youth Project of National Natural Science Foundation of China （number， 82401812）； Project of Health Commission of Sichuan Province （number， 24LCYJPT18）］

Background The association between occupational physical activity (OPA) and cardiometabolic risk factors remains controversial, potentially due to differences in the associations between OPA and various cardiometabolic indicators, as well as the lack of a clearly defined optimal OPA range for multiple-indicator synergistic benefits. Objective To investigate the relationship between OPA and cardiometabolic risk factors in individuals at high risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Hubei Province, and to explore an optimal OPA range for multi-indicator improvements. Methods Data were derived from the Hubei Province dataset of the China Health Evaluation And Risk Reduction Through Nationwide Teamwork from 2015 to 2023, including 19028 high-risk CVD individuals. OPA (metabolic equivalent·h·d⁻¹, MET·h·d⁻¹) was assessed using the China Kadoorie Biobank physical activity questionnaire, anthropometric measurements (height, weight, waist circumference) and cardiometabolic indicators (blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, lipid profiles) were measured. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the association between logOPA quartiles (Q1-Q4) and abnormal cardiometabolic indicators, while restricted cubic spline (RCS) models were employed to explore their dose-response relationships. Subgroup and interaction analyses were also conducted by gender. Results The median OPA of all participants was 12.86 MET·h·d⁻¹ (male: 14.40 MET·h·d⁻¹, female: 11.14 MET·h·d⁻¹). After adjusting for confounders, compared with the Q1 group, logOPA in the Q4 group was associated with 20% (OR=0.80, 95%CI: 0.72, 0.89), 14% (OR=0.86, 95%CI: 0.78, 0.96), and 13% (OR=0.87, 95%CI: 0.79, 0.95) reduction in the risk of abdominal obesity, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and metabolic syndrome (MS), respectively, and 33% (OR=1.33, 95%CI: 1.18, 1.49), 33% (OR=1.33, 95%CI: 1.18, 1.50), and 38% (OR=1.38, 95%CI: 1.21, 1.57) increase in the risk of high total cholesterol (TC), high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high non-HDL-C, respectively. Similar trends were observed in males and females, with significant positive associations of logOPA with high TC and high non-HDL-C in males (P_interaction<0.05). The risk of low HDL-C decreased rapidly when logOPA was more than 2.213 (OPA>9.14 MET·h·d⁻¹), showing an inverted L-shaped trend. The risk of high TC, high LDL-C, and high non-HDL-C increased beyond logOPA thresholds of 3.244, 2.476, and 3.377 (OPA >25.64, 11.89, and 29.28 MET·h·d⁻¹), respectively, showing a J-shaped trend. However, logOPA exhibited a U-shaped nonlinear dose-response relationship with blood pressure and fasting blood glucose abnormalities (P_non-linear<0.05) , with minimal risks at logOPA 2.969 and 2.372 (OPA of 19.47 and 10.72 MET·h·d⁻¹). Conclusion OPA exhibits heterogeneous dose-response patterns across cardiometabolic indicators. Integrating the inverted L-, J-, and U-shaped association patterns, we suggest an optimal OPA range of 9.14−25.64 MET·h·d⁻¹ for multiple cardiometabolic indicators in total individuals at high-risk of CVD, with ranges of 9.61−31.34 MET·h·d⁻¹ for males and 8.97−22.87 MET·h·d⁻¹ for females. These findings provide critical evidence for developing OPA interventions strategies targeting high-risk population for CVD.

Aim To investigate the mechanisms of Chaijin JieYu Anshen formula modulating the depres-sive behaviors and the synaptic plasticity of hippocam-pal neurons in insomnia-concomitant depression rats based on the histone deacetylase 5(HDAC5)/myocyte enhancer factor 2C(MEF2C)pathway.Methods A rat model of insomnia-concomitant depression was es-tablished by PCPA injection combined with chronic un-predictable mild stress(CUMS),and the experiment was divided into the control group,the model group,the high,medium and low dose group of Chaijin JieYu Anshen formula,and the positive drug group.The de-pression of rats was evaluated by sugar-water prefer-ence test,open field test and morris water maze.The levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)and dopamine(DA)in serum were measured by enzyme linked im-munosorbent assay(ELISA).The pathological damage of hippocampal neurons was observed by HE staining and Nissl staining.The damage of dendritic spines of hippocampal neurons was observed by Golgi staining,and the levels of HDAC5,MEF2C,postsynaptic densi-ty-95(PSD-95)and synaptophysin 1(SYN1)in hip-pocampus were measured by Western blot,immunohis-tochemistry and immunofluorescence.Results Com-pared with the model group,the Chaijin JieYu Anshen formula could increase the sugar-water preference rate of the model rats,reduce the immobility time in the open field experiment,increase the total activity dis-tance,shorten the evasion latency in the localization navigation experiment,and prolong the residence time in the quadrant where the platform was located in the space exploration experiment(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Moreover,the Chaijin JieYu Anshen formula improved the hippocampal neuron and dendritic spine damage and increase the dendritic branch length and dendritic spine density of hippocampal neurons(P＜0.01,P＜0.01),restore the serum levels of 5-HT and DA in insomnia-concomitant depression rats(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),down-regulate the HDAC5 protein,and up-regulate the expression of MEF2C,PSD-95,and SYN1 protein(P＜0.05,P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).Conclusions Chaijin JieYu Anshen formula may alle-viate the depression-like behavior of model rats by re-ducing the expression of HDAC5 protein,thus deregu-lating the inhibition of transcription factor MEF2C,promoting the expression of PSD-95 and SNY1 protein,and exerting a protective effect on hippocampal neurons and synapses.

Objective:To understand the status and coping strategies of death anxiety among military nurses participating in emergency public health incident response, and to provide references for improving their coping abilities.Methods:A purposive sampling and snowball sampling method were used to select 15 nurses from multiple military hospitals who supported the emergency public health incident. One-on-one semi-structured interviews were conducted, and the Colaizzi's seven-step analysis method was used to analyze the interview data.Results:Four themes were identified: the occurrence of death anxiety at different time points; the presence of significant outbreaks of death anxiety; multiple factors that help military nurses alleviate death anxiety; and the intrinsic motivation and gains of military nurses participating in the response.Conclusions:It is crucial to monitor the occurrence and changes in death anxiety among nurses throughout the entire cycle of emergency public health incidents. Managers should focus on value guidance, leverage individual positive strengths to cope with death anxiety, enhance information and social support, reinforce training on infectious disease prevention and death education, and reduce the level of death anxiety among military nurses and improve their coping abilities.

This study was aimed at investigating the prevalence and characteristics of Angiostrongylus cantonensis infection in snails for sale in select regions of Yunnan Province between April and September in 2019-2023.A total of 1 584 snails were collected from 13 regions,and third stage larvae with A.cantonensis infection were identified with the digestion method.The A.cantonensis infection rate in snails was 3.66％.The infection rate of Pomacea canaliculata was highest(6.41％),that of Cipangopaludina cathayensis was 2.74％,and that of Bellamya aeruginosa was 2.56％.The A.cantonensis infection rate in each snail species decreased each year,except in P.canaliculata.The A.cantonensis infection rate was highest in July(7.87％).Snails infected with A.cantonensis were found in regions except Chuxiong.The highest infection rate in these 12 re-gions occurred in Honghe(9.52％).In conclusion,A.cantonensis infection was identified in snails for sale in select areas of Yunnan province,thus posing hidden food safety risks.Strengthened supervision and management of snail food products,in-creased education,environmental improvement,and deratization deratize are necessary.Moreover,molecular biological detec-tion provides a sensitive tool for the prevention and control of A.cantonensis.

Objectives:Present study aimed to use quantitative flow ratio based on Murray's law to analyze the risk factors of impaired side branches perfusion without naked eye visible slowing of blood flow in branches after interventional treatment of true bifurcation lesions of the coronary arteries. Methods:A total of 211 patients with non-left main coronary artery true bifurcation coronary artery disease who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from June 2022 to September 2023 were continuously enrolled,with a total of 234 bifurcation lesions.The general clinical indicators,anatomical characteristics of coronary artery bifurcation lesions,branch protection methods,postoperative branch TIMI blood flow and other data were collected,and quantitative flow ratio(μQFR)was measured for postoperative branch blood vessels.Post-PCI μQFR<0.8 was considered as impaired branch perfusion and was included in the postoperative impaired branch perfusion group(n=51,53 branch lesions).Patients with μQFR≥0.8 were included in the postoperative normal branch perfusion group(n=160,181 branch lesions).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the effects of various clinical and anatomical factors on branch perfusion after PCI. Results:The post-PCI branch flow grading of all patients was TIMI grade Ⅲ.The postoperative branch μQFR of 53 vessels(22.6％)in the group with impaired postoperative branch perfusion was 0.70±0.10,and 0.93±0.05 in the group with normal postoperative branch perfusion,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.001).Compared with the postoperative group with normal branch perfusion,the postoperative group with impaired branch perfusion was featured with an elevated branch lesion length,branch reference diameter,postoperative branch opening diameter stenosis rate,postoperative branch narrowest lumen diameter stenosis rate,and a lower main branch-to-branch diameter ratio,preoperative branch narrowest lumen diameter stenosis rate,and preoperative main branch μQFR,all of which were statistically significant(all P<0.05).The postoperative branch opening diameter stenosis rate(r=-0.490,P<0.001),postoperative branch narrowest lumen diameter stenosis rate(r=-0.788,P<0.001),preoperative branch narrowest lumen diameter stenosis rate(r=-0.280,P<0.001),branch narrowest lumen diameter(r=-0.469,P<0.001),branch lesion length(r=-0.157,P=0.016)were negatively correlated with postoperative branch μQFR,and branch reference diameter(r=0.173,P=0.008),main branch/side branch diameter ratio(r=0.194,P=0.003),and branch opening diameter(r=0.328,P<0.001)were positively correlated with postoperative branch μQFR,and none of them were significantly correlated with clinical baseline data(all P>0.05).Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that following four factors were independent risk factors for impaired branch perfusion:postoperative stenosis of the narrowest branch lumen diameter(OR=1.228,95％CI:1.144-1.318,P<0.001),postoperative stenosis of the branch opening diameter(OR=1.110,95％CI:1.055-1.168,P<0.001),postoperative stenosis of the narrowest lumen diameter of the main branch(OR=1.115,95％CI:1.042-1.192,P=0.001),and length of the branch lesion(OR=1.121,95％CI:1.021-1.231,P=0016). Conclusions:Some of the patients whose branch flow reached TIMI grade Ⅲ after PCI are still faced the risk of hemodynamical impairment and should be functionally evaluated after PCI.The postoperative stenosis rate of the narrowest branch lumen diameter,postoperative stenosis rate of the branch opening diameter,postoperative stenosis rate of the narrowest lumen diameter of the main branch,and branch lesion length are the risk factors of branch perfusion impairment after PCI for coronary bifurcation lesions.

The objective of this study was to investigate the protective effect and potential mechanism of action of hemin on bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice. Male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control, bleomycin and bleomycin + hemin groups. Mice in the bleomycin and bleomycin + hemin groups were injected intratracheally with bleomycin to establish the pulmonary fibrosis model.The bleomycin + hemin group mice were injected intraperitoneally with hemin starting 7 days before modeling until the end of Day 21 after modeling. Pathological changes in lung tissue were assessed by HE and Masson staining. Malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) levels were determined in lung tissue. Immunohistochemistry was performed to assess the expression of α-SMA and collagen I. The serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were measured via ELISA.Western blotting was used to determine the expression of TGF-β1, SIRT1, PGC-1α and HO-1 and the phosphorylation levels of p38, ERK1/2, JNK, AMPK and NF-κB p65 in lung tissue. Hemin significantly reduced lung indices, increased terminal body weight. It also significantly increased SOD and CAT activities; decreased MDA, IL-6 and TNF-α levels; reduced the levels of α-SMA and collagen I-positive cells; upregulated SIRT1, PGC-1α and HO-1 expression; promoted AMPK phosphorylation; and downregulated TGF-β1 expression and p38, ERK1/2, JNK and NF-κB p65 phosphorylation. Hemin might attenuate oxidative damage and inflammatory responses and reduces extracellular matrix deposition by regulating the expression and phosphorylation of proteins associated with the TGF-β1/MAPK and AMPK/SIRT1/PGC-1α/HO-1/ NF-κB pathways, thereby alleviating bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis.

Prepubertal-type testicular neuroendocrine tumor is a rare neoplasm of low malignant potential, which is classified as germ cell tumors unrelated to germ cell neoplasia in situ, and needs to be differentiated from metastatic neuroendocrine tumor, postpubertal-type testicular neuroendocrine tumor, and testicular seminoma. The clinicopathological and molecular features of a case of prepubertal-type testicular neuroendocrine tumor were reported. The tumour cells were uniform in size and arranged in nested and insular pattern. The tumor was positive for CgA and Syn, and the Ki-67 index was less than 2% by immunostaining. Next-generation sequencing identified no variants of pathogenicity, potential pathogenicity or uncertain significance. The patient was followed without evidence of recurrence and metastasis 56 months after surgery.
