ObjectiveTo explore the clinical and phenomics characteristics of patients with phlegm-stasis binding syndrome and its accompanied patterns in stable angina pectoris （SAP） of coronary heart disease （CHD）. MethodsA multicenter cross-sectional study design was adopted. A total of 300 patients with SAP of CHD were enrolled and classified into 120 cases of phlegm-stasis binding syndrome， 125 cases of qi deficiency-accompanied syndrome， 38 cases of qi stagnation-accompanied syndrome， and 17 cases of toxin accumulation-accompanied syndrome according to traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） patterns. Data of patients with different TCM patterns were collected， including general condition， TCM symptoms， blood lipids， coagulation function， immune indicators， and serum metabolomics. Metabolic pathway enrichment analysis was used to compare differences in phenomics characteristics among groups. Metabolites with variable importance in projection （VIP） ≥1 and fold change （FC） ≥2 were considered as representative differential metabolites. ResultsPatients in each TCM pattern type were most commonly in the 60-75 years age group， with a relatively high proportion of males. Regarding TCM symptoms， patients with phlegm-stasis binding syndrome most commonly presented with wiry-choppy or wiry-slippery pulse， chest pain， and chest tightness； in patients with qi deficiency-accompanied syndrome， fatigue， chest pain， and weak pulse were most common； in patients with qi stagnation-accompanied sydnrome， wiry-choppy or wiry-slippery pulse， chest pain， and symptoms that increase or decrease with emotional changes， belching， or flatulence were most common； in patients with toxin accumulation-accompanied syndrome， bitter taste in the mouth， chest tightness， irritability， restlessness or manic delirium， and dry and hard stools or foul-smelling diarrhea were most common. Comparisons among the different TCM patterns showed statistically significant differences in coagulation parameters （P＜0.05）， whereas no statistically significant difference was found in blood lipid levels and immune indicators （P＞0.05）.Metabolomics analysis suggested that disorders of glycerophosphate metabolism and valine， leucine， and isoleucine metabolism are characteristic features of phlegm-stasis binding syndrome and its accompanied patterns. The representative differential metabolites between phlegm-stasis binding syndrome and qi deficiency-accompanied syndrome were 7,8-dihydrobiopterin （FC = 3.58） and oxypurinol （FC = 124.50）. Those between phlegm-stasis binding syndrome and qi stagnation-accompanied syndrome were cytidine 5′-diphosphocholine （FC = 2.62） and D-mannosamine （FC = 2.99）. Those between phlegm-stasis binding syndrome and toxin accumulation-accompanied syndrome were anserine （FC = 7.83） and canrenone （FC = 8.94）. ConclusionThere are certain differences in the clinical characteristics and phenomics characteristics among patients with SAP due to CHD exhibiting phlegm-stasis binding syndrome and its accompanied patterns. The phenomics characteristics mainly involve biological alterations such as lipid metabolism disorders， amino acid metabolism abnormalities， and multiple immune indicators activation， which may provide a reference for precise differentiation and treatment of SAP of CHD in TCM clinical practice.

BACKGROUND: As an essential part of health services, rehabilitation is of great significance to improve the health and quality of life of the whole population. Accelerating aging calls for a significant expansion of rehabilitation services in China, but rehabilitation needs remain unclear. We conducted the study to explore the rehabilitation needs in China and project the trend of rehabilitation needs from 2020 to 2034. METHODS: The data of health conditions that might potentially benefit from rehabilitation were obtained from Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study. Estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) were calculated to quantify the trends of the age-standardized rates. Projections of rehabilitation needs were made until 2034 using Bayesian age-period-cohort analysis (BAPC). RESULTS: Approximately 460 million persons (33.3% of the total population) need rehabilitation in China, contributing to 63 million years lived with disabilities (YLDs) in 2019. The number of prevalent cases that need rehabilitation increased from around 268 (95% uncertainty interval [UI]: 257-282) million in 1990 to almost 460 (95% UI: 443-479) million in 2019, representing an increase of 71.3%. The highest contribution to the need for rehabilitation was musculoskeletal disorders with about 322 (95% UI: 302-343) million persons in seven aggregate disease and injury categories, and hearing loss with over 95 (95% UI: 84-107) million people among 25 health conditions. Based on the projection results, there will be almost 636 million people (45% of the total population) needing rehabilitation services in China by 2034, representing an increase of 38.3%. The rehabilitation needs of neoplasms, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological disorders are expected to increase significantly from 2019 to 2034, with increases of 102.3%, 88.8% and 73.2%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The need for rehabilitation in China substantially increased over the last 30 years. It is predicted that over two in five people will require rehabilitation by 2034, thus suggesting the need to develop rehabilitation services that meet individuals' rehabilitation needs.

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanism of Zhachong Shisanwei Pills on rats with cerebral ischemia.Methods Totally 75 rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group,model group,positive drug group(Ginaton,21.6 mg/kg),and Zhachong Shisanwei Pills low-,medium-,and high-dosage groups(81,162,324 mg/kg).Each treatment group was given the corresponding drug by gavage for 5 days.On the 6th day,a cerebral ischemia rat model was prepared by suture method.After 24 hours of modeling,the drugs were given in the same manner for 2 days.Neurological function scoring,horizontal beam walking scoring,and grip strength testing were performed on rats.TTC staining was used to detect the cerebral infarction rate,HE staining and Nissl staining were used to observe the morphology of brain tissue.TUNEL staining was used to detect the apoptosis rate of brain tissue cells.Differential genes in the treatment of cerebral ischemia using Zhachong Shisanwei Pills were screened by transcriptomics,and RT-qPCR,immunohistochemistry and Western blot were used to detect differential gene mRNA and protein expression.Results Compared with the sham-operation group,the model group rats showed a decrease in neurological function scores,horizontal beam walking scores,grip strength,an increase in cerebral infarction rate,neuronal nucleus condensation,vacuolar changes,widened intercellular spaces,the number of Nissl bodies reduced,and the apoptosis rate increased(P<0.01,P<0.001);compared with the model group,the Zhachong Shisanwei Pills medium-dosage group showed an increase in neurological function score,horizontal beam walking score,and grip strength in rats,a decrease in cerebral infarction rate,a lower degree of neuronal damage,an increase in the number of Nissl bodies,and a decrease in cell apoptosis rate(P<0.05,P<0.01).Transcriptome and bioinformatics analysis screened the Hippo signaling pathway related to the anti-cerebral ischemia effect of Zhachong Shisanwei Pills.The key genes of this pathway,mammalian sterile line 20 like kinase(MST1)1,Yes related protein(YAP)1,large tumor suppressor kinase(LATS)1,and TEA domain family member(TEAD)1 were detected.The results showed that the expression of MST1 mRNA and protein in brain tissue of model rats significantly increased,while the expressions of YAP1,LATS1,TEAD1 mRNA and protein significantly decreased;Zhachong Shisanwei Pills could down-regulate the expression of MST1 in brain tissue of model rats,and up-regulate the expressions of YAP1,LATS1 and TEAD1.Conclusion Zhachong Shisanwei Pills may exert anti-cerebral ischemia effects through the Hippo signaling pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic and follow-up value of ultrasonography for juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM).Methods:Ten children with newly diagnosed or relapsed JDM in Children′s Hospital, Capital Institute of Pediatrics from October 2021 to October 2022 and 15 healthy children were prospectively collected. The clinical data of JDM children were collected, and the muscle ultrasound was performed at the first diagnosis, 3, 6, 12 and 18 months after diagnosis. The ultrasound parameters including quantitative muscle echogenicity (MEI), fascia thickness (FT), microvascular imaging (MVI) distribution, blood resistance index (RI), the changes in the characteristics of the sonogram were observed. The correlation between ultrasound data and pediatric myositis assessment scale (CMAS) score, creatine kinase (CK) were analyzed during the follow-up. Results of muscle ultrasound in children with first active JDM and normal children was compared.Results:After 18 months of treatment, MEI decreased significantly (75.62±4.32 vs 41.81±12.50, P<0.01), FT decreased[(0.27±0.06)cm vs (0.20±0.05)cm, P<0.01], and MVI distribution decreased[0 vs 7(70%), P<0.01] in 10 children with JDM.Spearman correlation analysis showed that MEI, FT, and MVI distribution were negatively correlated with CMAS score ( rs=-0.771, -0.443, -0.686; all P<0.05), while increased MEI and MVI distribution were positively correlated with CK ( rs=0.463, 0.464; all P<0.05). MEI returned to normal in 3 cases, FT didn′t completely recover, and the soft tissue calcification appeared. MEI, FI, and MVI distribution were significantly higher and RI was lower in children with JDM than in normal children (all P<0.01). Conclusions:Muscle ultrasound is suitable for the long-term dynamic detection of JDM, and the activity status of JDM disease can be judged by MEI, FT and MVI.

ObjectiveTo investigate the current situation of rehabilitation therapists' work, and analyze the factors related to their career development and transformation. MethodsFrom September, 2022 to January, 2023, 153 rehabilitation therapists in Weifang were investigated with a cross-sectional questionnaire, using general questionnaire, Job Satisfaction Scale for Grassroots Health Technicians, Social Responsibility Scale, Job Role and Identity Inventory, and Employee Turnover Scale. ResultsThe majority of rehabilitation therapists interviewed were male (52.28%), under 35 years old (88.24%), with a bachelor's degree (77.78%), income less than 5 000 yuan a month (46.40%), and less than five years of service (48.36%). The work time was (7.78±0.84) hours a day, (5.39±0.51) days a week. The favorable rate of the physical environment of work was 67.32%, and the favorable rate of the interpersonal relationship environment of work was 80.39%. The score of professional identity was (3.61±0.84), the score of job satisfaction was (3.62±0.97), the score of social responsibility was (3.53±0.79), and the score of turnover was (2.39±1.10). Education level, job satisfaction, and social responsibility were the main factors related to the employee turnover (P < 0.05). ConclusionThe overall educational level of rehabilitation therapists is relatively low, and the human resource structure needs to be optimized. There is a significant difference between academic education and continuing education, and career development needs to be improved. The main factors related to career development and transformation are education level, job satisfaction, and social responsibility.
