Chronic prostatitis,a common condition in andrology,is clinically characterized by a prolonged course,resistance to treatment,and frequent recurrence.In traditional Chinese medicine,it is classified under the categories of"turbid sperm,""overstrain strangury,"and"vaginal pain."Based on the"host-guest interaction-collateral disease"theory,we believe that healthy qi deficiency,latent pathogenic factors,and collateral obstruction are the primary pathological factors of this disease,which run through the entire process of chronic prostatitis occurrence and development.Accordingly,we propose that obstruction of collaterals and apathesia of the semen chamber are the core pathogenesis.The disease progression can be divided into three pathological stages:"deficiency,depression,and blood stasis."Spleen and kidney deficiency and malnutrition of collaterals form the pathological foundation.In the deficiency stage,treatment strategies involve reinforcing qi and nourishing the collaterals,using Fuzheng Yangrong Decoction.During disease progression,dampness and heat invasion,as well as collateral stagnation qi,are key contributors to disease progression.Thus,treatment focuses on clearing heat and dampness,promoting qi flow,and smoothing the collaterals,achieved with a modified Qiantongding Decoction.In the final stage,blood stasis and collateral obstruction dominate,warranting therapeutic strategies aimed at tonifying and removing blood stasis,addressing both the body and the collaterals simultaneously using the modified Guiling Huayu Decoction.Overall,the clinical treatment generally focuses on the concept of function through free flow,combination of unblocking and tonifying.This study provides a novel perspective and reference for clinical differentiation and treatment of chronic prostatitis.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of lignans extracted from Eucommia Ulmoides Oliver on diabetes encephalopathy(DE)rats and the effects on nuclear factor E2 related factor 2(Nrf2)/heme oxygenase-1(HO-1)signaling pathway.Methods A rat model of DE was established,and 48 successfully established DE rats were randomly divided into model group,and low-and high-dose lignans groups(200 and 400 mg/kg),and metformin(200 mg/kg)group,with 12 rats in each group.Another 12 healthy rats served as control group.Each group of rats was giv-en corresponding drug intervention once a day for 6 consecutive weeks.Cognitive and memory abilities,serum levels of IL-6,TNF-α,MDA and SOD,and mRNA and protein levels of Nrf2 and HO-1 in the hippocampus were measured in all groups.Pathological changes of the hippocampus were observed after HE staining.Results Compared with the control group,significantly longer escape latency and increased serum levels of IL-6,TNF-α and MDA,while lower times of crossing original platform,shorter residence duration of original platform quadrant,decreased serum SOD level,and reduced mRNA and protein levels of Nrf2 and HO-1 in the hippocampus were observed in the model group(all P＜0.05).Low-and high-dose lignans treatment reversed all above indica-tors when compared with model group(P＜0.05).What's more,the effects of high-dose lignans treatment were more significant than low-dose treatment in escape latency,serum levels of IL-6,TNF-α and MDA,times through the original platform,residence duration of the original platform quadrant,serum SOD level,and mRNA Nrf2 and HO-1 in the hippocampus(6.07±0.70 vs 4.76± 0.52,30.96±2.96 s vs 23.49±2.60 s,77.02±6.51 U/ml vs 61.71±6.75 U/ml,0.69±0.06 vs 0.49± 0.05,0.74±0.07 vs 0.57±0.06,P＜0.05).Conclusion Eucommia lignans can improve the cogni-tive ability,enhance the antioxidant capacity,inhibit inflammatory response and protect the hippo-campus of DE rats,and the mechanism may be related to the activation of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the current status of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and family resilience in high-risk pregnant women, and analyze the correlation between them.Methods:From March to December 2019, convenience sampling was used to select 400 high-risk pregnant women from a ClassⅢ Grade A hospital in Zhengzhou as the research object. The General Information Questionnaire, PTSD Checklist-Civilian Version (PCL-C) and Family Resilience Questionnaire were used to investigation when pregnant women went to the Obstetric Clinic for review to analyze the relationship between PTSD and family resilience of delivery women. A total of 400 questionnaires were issued, and 378 valid questionnaires were returned with the effective response rate of 94.5%.Results:The total PCL-C score of 378 pregnant women with high-risk pregnancy was (31.53±7.54) and the total family resilience score was (76.85±12.74) . The level of PTSD was negatively correlated with family resilience with a statistical difference ( r=-0.287, P=0.003) . The results of hierarchical regression analysis showed that the firmness and support of family resilience could explain 38.3% of the total variability of PTSD in high-risk pregnancy women. Conclusions:Family resilience of high-risk pregnant women has a negative predictive effect on PTSD. Medical and nursing staff should reduce the level of PTSD in high-risk pregnant women from the perspective of family resilience.

Objective:To explore the influence of the "4C" continuous nursing model on the quality of life and breastfeeding self-efficacy of puerperium women.Methods:A total of 136 puerperium women in a tertiary hospital from February to December 2019 were selected as the research objects by convenience sampling method. According to the random number table, they were randomly divided into the control group and the intervention group, with 68 cases in each group. Conventional nursing methods were applied in the control group, while "4C" continuous nursing model was applied on the basis of the control group in the intervention group. The MOS 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) and the Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale were applied to compare the quality of life and breastfeeding self-efficacy between the two groups before and after the intervention. In this study, a total of 136 questionnaires were issued and 126 valid questionnaires were returned. The effective response rate was 92.65%.Results:The scores of SF-36 and Breastfeeding Self-Efficacy Scale of the intervention group were higher than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The "4C" continuous nursing model can improve the quality of life of puerperium women and improve the self-efficacy of breastfeeding.

Objective To evaluate the effect of limb remote ischaemic preconditioning on pul-monary function in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement surgery with cardiopulmonary by-pass.Methods Seventy patients,32 males and 38 females,aged 18-70 years,weighing 45-90 kg, ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,scheduled for elective cardiac valve replacement surgery with cardiopul-monary bypass,were divided into 2 groups using a random number table,35 in each group.Patients in group R received three cycles of right upper-limb 5 min ischemia (blood-pressure cuff inflation to≥ 200 mm Hg)and 5 min reperfusion (blood-pressure cuff deflation to 0 mm Hg)at 10 min after in-tubation.In group C,the cuff was placed around the arm but not inflated.At 10 min after intubation (T0),at 1 h after aortic declamping (T1)and at 6 h (T2),12 h (T3),24 h (T4)after surgery,arte-rial blood was sampled to conduct gas analysis,PaO2/FiO2ratio and alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient (A-aDO2)were calculated,and the dynamic lung compliance (Cd)and static lung compliance (Cs) were also recorded.The occurrence of pulmonary adverse events was recorded until discharge. Results Compared with T0,PaO2/FiO2was decreased in the two groups at T1-T4,A-aDO2was de-creased at T2-T4,Cs and Cd were increased in group C at T3,and were increased in group R at T2, T3(P<0.05).Compared with group C,the Cs and Cd at T2,T3were increased in group R.There were no significant differences between the two groups in the PaO2/FiO2,A-aDO2at T0-T4.The oc-currence of the pulmonary adverse events was decreased significantly in group R than in group C (P<0.05).The occurrence of pulmonary adverse events was declined significantly in group R than in group C (P<0.05).Conclusion Limb remote ischemic preconditioning can improve the lung compli-ance and reduce the occurrence of the pulmonary adverse events in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement surgery.
