ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of Shenqi Yangxin decoction in the treatment of ischemic cardiomyopathy （ICM） with Qi and Yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome and its effect on serum hydrogen sulfide （H₂S） and calcium ion （Ca²⁺）. MethodsA total of 64 ICM patients with Qi and Yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into a control group （n=32） and a treatment group （n=32）. All patients received conventional Western medicine treatment. The treatment group was additionally given Shenqi Yangxin decoction. The TCM syndrome score， Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire （MLHFQ） score， left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF）， N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide （NT-proBNP）， 6-minute walk test （6MWT）， New York Heart Association （NYHA） cardiac function classification， and serum H₂S and Ca²⁺ levels were compared between the two groups pre- and post-treatment. ResultsTwo cases dropped out from each group during the study. Finally， 30 patients in each group were included in the analysis. There were no significant differences in age， gender， course of coronary heart disease， underlying diseases， and laboratory tests between the two groups. Compared with baseline， the TCM syndrome score， MLHFQ score， and NT-proBNP in both treatment group and control group decreased significantly （P<0.01）， LVEF， 6MWT， and H₂S increased significantly （P<0.01）， and serum Ca²⁺ increased （P<0.05）. Compared with the control group after treatment， the MLHFQ score and NT-proBNP in the treatment group decreased （P<0.05）， the TCM syndrome score decreased significantly （P<0.01）， LVEF， 6MWT， and serum Ca²⁺ increased （P<0.05）， and H₂S increased significantly （P<0.01）. The improvement degree of the NYHA cardiac function classification in the treatment group was higher than that in the control group， but there was no significant difference. ConclusionShenqi Yangxin decoction is effective in treating ICM patients with Qi and Yin deficiency and blood stasis， which could significantly improve cardiac function and quality of life， and its therapeutic effect may be related to the regulation of serum H₂S and Ca²⁺ levels.

Objective To investigate the radiological features of intracranial white epidermoid cysts(WECs).Methods A retro-spective analysis was conducted on the CT and MRI findings of 7 patients pathologically confirmed with WECs.All patients under-went plain CT and MRI scans,and six patients underwent enhanced MRI scans.Results All cases were solitary lesions,located in the right middle cranial fossa(2 cases),suprasellar area(2 cases),left cerebellopontine angle(1 case),right cerebellar vermis(1 case),and cerebellomedullary cistern(1 case),respectively.The lesions appeared oval or irregular in shape with clear boundaries and no perile-sional edema.The CT scans predominantly showed high density in 7 cases,with calcification in 1 case.On T1WI,7 cases exhibited high signal with mixed signals in some areas;6 cases showed primarily low signal on T2WI and fluid attenuated inversion recovery(FLAIR),with 1 case predominantly showed high signal;all 7 cases demonstrated low signal on diffusion weighted imaging(DWI).The margins of 1 lesion appeared"curly",and another exhibited a"swirl"pattern.5 cases had no enhancement,while 1 case had mild marginal enhancement.Conclusion Intracranial WECs has certain imaging characteristics.When a cystic lesion shows high density on CT,predominantly high signal on T1WI,and mostly no enhancement,considering the possibility of WECs.

Objective:To discern the association between autism-like behaviors and resilience within the ado-lescent demographic.Methods:A total of 7 063 middle school students were selected to assess ASD-like behaviors and resilience in adolescents using the Autism Spectrum Screening Questionnaire(ASSQ)as well as the Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescent(RSCA).Subgroups bounded by P5 and P95 of the total ASSQ score,a comparative analysis of the resilience scores between these groups was executed.A correlation evaluation and linear regression a-nalysis was carried out between ASSQ and RSCA scores from all participants.Results:The RSCA scores within the high ASSQ scoring group,were inferior to those in the low scoring group.ASSQ scores were negatively correlated with RSCA scores for the full sample(Ps＜0.01);Social interaction scores on the ASSQ were negatively correlated with the five-factor RSCA scores(β=-0.23,-0.27,-0.11,-0.23,-0.37,Ps＜0.05).Conclusion:There was a negative association between autism spectrum disorder-like behaviors and resilience in adolescents,with more severe social interaction symptoms being associated with poorer resilience.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic efficacy and prognosis of multiple myeloma (MM) patients with early relapse and the influencing factors of early relapse.Methods:The clinical data of 164 patients with newly diagnosed MM admitted to Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University from January 2018 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and 53 cases (32.3%) relapsed at the end of the follow-up. According to the recurrence within 12 months or not, the patients were divided into early relapse group and advanced relapse group; the clinical characteristics, overall response rate (ORR) and overall survival (OS) of both groups were compared. Logistic regression was used to analyze if the following indexes including age, gender, albumin, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), β 2-microglobulin (β 2-MG), hemoglobin, creatinine, serum calcium, bone marrow plasma cell ratio, extramedullary disease, high-risk fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) were the influencing factors of the early relapse. Based on 7 published clinical trials, simplified early relapse MM (S-ERMM) scoring system was constructed to subgroup all relapsed patients. The difference in risk stratification between early relapsed patients and advanced relapsed patients was compared. Results:The median follow-up time of 164 newly diagnosed MM patients was 26 months (12-48 months). Among 53 relapsed MM patients, 24 cases had early relapse and 29 cases had advanced relapse. The ORR of patients with early relapse was decreased compared with that of those with advanced relapse [70.8% (17/24) vs. 89.7% (26/29), χ2 = 3.04, P = 0.001]. The median OS of the early relapse group was shorter than that of the advanced relapse group (24 months vs. not reached, P < 0.001). The OS of patient in the early relapse group with the best response ≥ complete remission (CR), ≥ very good partial remission (VGPR) and ≥ partial remission (PR) during initial induction therapy was worse than that of those in the advanced relapse group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P values were 0.008, 0.011, 0.012, respectively). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed low albumin (<35 g/L vs. ≥35 g/L: OR = 1.644, 95% CI 1.076-2.511, P = 0.022) and high LDH (< the upper limit of normal value vs. ≥ the upper limit of normal value: OR = 0.998, 95% CI 0.985-1.011, P = 0.030) were independent influencing factors of early relapse. Among 24 early relapse patients, there were 5 cases (20.8%), 13 cases (54.2%), 6 cases (25.0%), respectively in the S-ERMM scoring system low-risk, middle-risk, high-risk groups; among 29 advanced relapse patients, there were 18 cases (62.1%),9 cases (31.0%), 2 cases (6.9%), respectively in the S-ERMM scoring system low-risk, middle-risk, high-risk groups; the difference in risk stratification of the S-ERMM scoring system between the early relapse group and the advanced relapse group was statistically significant ( χ2 = 9.09, P = 0.003). Conclusions:MM patients with early relapse have poor therapeutic efficacy and prognosis. The prognosis is not affected by the depth of remission to first-line therapy. Low albumin and high LDH may be independent risk factors of MM patients with early relapse.

OBJECTIVE：To summarize key factors and shortcomings of essential medicine policy in China from 2009-2019， and to provide reference for the formulation and improvement of follow-up policy. METHODS ：Through the official websites such as National Health Commission and Chinese government website ，as well as other policy searching websites ，using“essential medicine”as key words，related policy texts were collected. Rothwell classification method was used to construct the analysis framework of essential medicine policy. The contents of policy texts were classified and coded by Excel 2013 software，and the codes were classified into the essential medicine related policy analysis framework. The descriptive analysis was carried out by SPSS 22.0 software，and the essential medicine policy was analyzed according to data distribution characteristics ，and the results were explained. Corresponding suggestions were put forward. RESULTS ：A total of 15 essential medicine policy texts were screened and obtained. X-dimension of the analysis framework of essential medicine policy included 3 types of basic policy tools ， Incorporat - counting for environmental effects and statistical noise in ing the operating environment into a nonparametric mea - data game formulations and interpretations for data envelopsupply-oriented ，environment-oriented and demand-oriented tools ；Y-dimension was the essential medicine policy objectives of accessibility，quality and rational use. From X-dimension ，the frequencies of above 3 basic policy tools use were 20.12％ ， 66.46％，13.41％，and the environmental policy tools were the most frequently used ；from Y-dimension ，the frequencies of above 3 objectives were 43.90％，32.93％，23.17％，the frequency of accessibility was the highest. The test results showed that there was statistical significance in the use frequency of X-dimension in Y-dimension （χ2＝11.719，P＝0.025＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：The use frequency ratio of different essential medicine policy tools is different ，so it is necessary to reduce the frequency ratio of environmental policy tools ；there are differences in the internal structure of policy tools ，so it is necessary to optimize the structural allocation among policy tools ，and pay attention to the construction of demand-oriented tools . It is suggested that the accessibility of essential medicine should be enhanced ，and the connection between essential medicine list and medical insurance list should be strengthened；great importance should be attached to drug quality and drug quality supervision ；the scope of rational use of essential medicine should be clarified ，and the supervision responsibility of relevant government departments such as NMPA should be strengthened.

Objective:To measure the normal range of inter-rectus distance in Han nationality women with normal gestational age and without a history of pregancy in central China by high-frequency ultrasound.Methods:A total of 561 Han nationality women with normal gestational age and without a history of pregnancy were continuously collected to perform transabdominal sonography from March 2018 to December 2019 in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital. The inter-rectus distance between superior margin of pubic symphysis and below the xiphoid process under rest condition was observed, and the widest distance between the inter-rectus distance was detected, also its distance with upper edge of umbilical level was confirmed. The 95% medical reference value(P95%) was adopted to confirm range of normal values of inter-rectus distance.Results:A total of 547 non-pregnant women were included in the study. The widest distance between the linea alba was mostly at the umbilical level. P95% for the inter-rectus distance was less than or equal to 29.00 mm.Conclusions:The ultrasounds can evaluate the inter-rectus distance in non-pregnant women. The widest inter-rectus distance in Han nationality women with normal gestational age and without a history of pregancy in central China is mostly at the upper edge of umbilical level. The critical point for the inter-rectus distance is 29.00 mm under rest condition.

Objective:To explore the effects of planned aerobic-resistance exercise on nutritional status and intra-dialytic hypotension of maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients during dialysis.Methods:From January 2018 to October 2018, we selected 106 hemodialysis patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University by convenience sampling. All of patients were divided into control group and observation group with method of the random number table, 53 cases in each group. Control group carried out the routine management model. On the basis of that in control group, observation group implemented the planned aerobic-resistance exercise during dialysis for three months. We compared the hemoglobin (Hb) , serum prealbumin (PA) , body cell mass (BCM) , bone mineral content (BMC) , skeletal muscle content (SMC) , cardiopulmonary function and incidence of intra-dialytic hypotension of patients between two groups.Results:Three months after intervention, the Hb, PA, BCM, BMC and SMC of patients in observation group were (99.77±6.29) g/L, (344.55±37.12) mg/L, (31.42±3.15) kg, (3.08±0.41) kg and (27.85±2.51) kg respectively higher than those in control group with statistical differences ( P<0.05) ; the maximal oxygen uptake and left ventricular ejection fraction of observation group were (14.93±2.82) ml/ (kg·min) and (58.21±5.22) % respectively higher than those in control group with statistical differences ( P<0.05) . During intervention, the incidence of intra-dialytic hypotension of observation group was 9.05% (187/2 067) lower than that in control group [19.45% (402/2 067) ]with a statistical difference (χ 2=91.520, P<0.01) . Conclusions:Planned aerobic-resistance exercise during dialysis can improve the nutritional status, cardiopulmonary function and endurance of MHD patients, and reduce the incidence of intra-dialytic hypotension which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To compare the performance of four commercial anti-dsDNA antibody assays,i.e,BioPlex 2200 (BioPlex),Farr radioimmunoassay (Farr),MESACUP DNA-Ⅱ TEST ds [MBL-enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)] and Anti-dsDNA-NcX ELISA (IgG) (EURO-ELISA),Antoantibodies Profile Assay Kit (HOB-Chemiluminescent Immunoassay) in disease activity assessment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).Methods SLE patients (n=119) as well as healthy controls (n=200) and disease controls (n=100) were recruited and their serum anti-dsDNA antibodies were detected by BioPlex,Farr,MBL-ELISA,EURO-ELISA,and a standard Crithidia luciliae indirect immunofluorescence test (CLIFT).The consistency between above four methods to CLIFT was analyzed.The correlation of anti-dsDNA antibody level of these four methods to SLE disease activity was assessed.All data analyses were performed with Statistical product and service solutions (SPSS) 16.0 (SPSS.Inc) and GraphPad Prism 4.0.3 (GraphPad).Unless otherwise specified,all data in this study were expressed as mean±standard deviation.Cut-off values of the anti-dsDNA quantification methods were set by the manufacturers.Chi square and kappa coefficients were adopted to assess the agreement determination and correlation analysis between anti-dsDNA level and SLE disease activity (SLEDAI).Receiver-operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to compare the specificity and sensitivity of the anti-dsDNA assays.Student's t test was adopted for the comparison of anti-dsDNA levels by different methods between SLE and SLE+LN groups.A p value small than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results Using cut-off values set by the manufacturers,BioPlex demonstrated the highest overall agreement with CLIFT,while MBL-ELISA and EURO-ELISA showed the highest positive agreement with CLIFT.Disease activity correlation analysis showed that SLEDAI score correlated poorly with anti-dsDNA level in Farr assay,but strongly with the other three assays.Bioplex had a better performance in terms of SLE activity index corelation (r=0.297 6,P=0.001 2).Moreover,anti-dsDNA level differed in SLE patients with renal lupus nephritis in BioPlex assay (P=0.026 8),but not in the other assays.In ROC curve analysis,BioPlex showed the largest area under the curve (AUC) over other assays.Conclusion Bio Plex assay has better sensitivity and specificity than Farr,MBL-ELISA and EURO-ELISA and correlates well with SLE disease activity.
