Objective:
To understand the impact of left behind experience on the mental health of secondary vocational school students, so as to provide theoretical basis for the psychological health education of secondary vocational school students.
Methods:
From September to December in 2019, a total of 3 401 students from Duyun, Guiding and Pingtang County were selected by multi stage cluster random sampling method. Self designed questionnaire and Symptom Check List-90(SCL-90) were used to investigate mental health status. A total of 1 415 left behind students and 1 415 non left behind students were matched by using propensity score matching (PSM). Wilcoxon test and Logistic regression analysis were conducted.
Results:
Before the matching of propensity score, there were statistically significant differences in the distribution of family structure, mother s educational level, family residence,family harmony and children s past health among the students with or without left behind experience ( χ 2=28.17, 52.40, 96.31, 29.75 , 19.10, P <0.05). After the matching, there were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of the above variables among the students with or without left behind experience ( χ 2=0.02-4.32, P >0.05). Before the matching of propensity scores, there were significant differences in the scores of 10 dimensions of SCL-90, including somatization (1.67,1.58), interpersonal sensitivity (2.00,1.89), anxiety (1.90,1.70), obsessive compulsive symptoms (2.20, 2.10), depression (2.00, 1.85), hostility (1.83, 1.67), terror (1.85, 1.71), paranoia (1.83, 1.67), psychotic (1.70, 1.60) and other (1.85, 1.71) dimensions among secondary vocational school students with or without left behind experience ( Z=-5.15 to -2.84, P <0.05). After propensity score matching, there were significant differences in scores remained only in three factors for interpersonal sensitivity [(2.00(1.56,2.67),2.00(1.44,2.56)], paranoia [1.83(1.33,2.50),1.83(1.33,2.33)] and psychoticism [1.70(1.30,2.30),1.70(1.20,2.20)] in SCL- 90 among secondary vocational students with or without left behind experience ( Z=-2.45, -2.12, -2.23, P <0.05).
Conclusion
The impact of left behind experience on the mental health of vocational school students is mainly reflected in interpersonal sensitivity, paranoia, and psychoticism, which should be identified as key areas of psychological education for secondary vocational school students.

National health standards involve all kinds of technical requirements formulated and numbered in accordance with the procedures and formats stipulated in the standardisation system for the implementation of national health and hygiene laws, regulations and policies, and the protection of human health. The establishment of health standards in China should align with our legal framework, including laws, regulations, departmental rules, and health and hygiene policies. During the development of these standards, a comprehensive approach is advocated, encompassing in-depth investigations, rigorous demonstrations, and extensive stakeholder engagement. However, the process of standard formulation may suffer from insufficient research evidence. The evidence-based concept emphasizes the significance of evidence. Therefore, integrating evidence-based concept into the process of developing health standards can enhance the quality and scientific basis of these standards. This article systematically elucidates the current status and development process of health standards in China, explores the necessity and feasibility of incorporating evidence-based concept into the development of these standards, analyzes the challenges and opportunities, and presents reflections and suggestions.

Objective To explore the comorbidity patterns of chronic diseases and their associated factors in the elderly population aged 60 and above in China. Methods Based on the data from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS), the Apriori algorithm in R4.0.4 software was used to extract frequent itemsets and construct an association rule model between chronic diseases and their associated factors, targeting the information on 14 chronic diseases in people aged 60 and above in the database. Results Among the 13 206 participants, 3 691 cases (27.90%) suffered from at least one chronic disease, while 6 217 cases (47.08%) suffered from two or more chronic diseases. Analysis of association rules showed that the most common comorbidity patterns included heart disease and hypertension, dyslipidemia and hypertension, diabetes and hypertension, as well as "heart disease, arthritis→high blood pressure" "high blood pressure, stomach disease→arthritis" "dyslipidemia, arthritis→hypertension", with support degrees of 8.93%, 8.29%, 5.44%, 3.82%, 3.71% and 3.22%, and confidence degrees of 55.15%, 59.64%, 60.13%, 53.67%, 51.58% and 60.11% respectively. Irregular sleep patterns, urban living backgrounds, and high social participation were strongly associated with hypertension; while irregular sleep patterns, rural residency, and female were highly associated with arthritis. Conclusion Given the universality of hypertension in multiple chronic disease comorbidity patterns, the prevention and screening of hypertension and its complications in the elderly population should be strengthened. For the comorbidity patterns of chronic diseases coexisting with hypertension, special attention should be paid to the daily disease screening and management of the elderly who participate in social activities in cities. At the same time, for elderly women, poor sleep quality, and rural residents, the screening and attention to the comorbidity patterns of chronic diseases with arthritis need to be strengthened.

Artemisiae Scoporiae Herba is derived from Artemisia scoparia or A. capillaris. The accurate identification of the herbs, particularly when dealing with bulk samples, is critical for ensuring the quality and efficacy of the medicinal product. This study aimed to establish a comprehensive molecular approach by combining multiple markers for the precise identification of Artemisiae Scoporiae Herba. The ITS2 from A. scoparia, A. capillaris, and other common Artemisia species were retrieved from GenBank. MEGA was used to build a phylogenetic tree with these sequences, and the effectiveness of ITS2 in species identification was assessed. The analysis revealed that while ITS2 could distinguish Artemisiae Scoporiae Herba from other closely related species of Artemisia, it was insufficient to differentiate between A. scoparia and A. capillaris. To address this limitation, the chloroplast genome of A. capillaris was assembled and compared with the published chloroplast genomes of A. scoparia and A. capillaris, on the basis of which a DNA mini-barcode was developed. The rpoA-rps11 region was selected as the target for the development of mini-barcode due to its potential for distinguishing between these two species. Specific primers were designed to differentiate A. scoparia from A. capillaris. The ITS2 sequences and the newly developed mini-barcode were used together for Sanger sequencing to identify individual samples of Artemisiae Scoporiae Herba, while DNA metabarcoding was employed for the identification of bulk samples. The identification results of representative individual samples and bulk samples from different regions consistently confirmed A. capillaris. This study established a method that combined ITS2 and mini-barcode to identify bulk samples of Artemisiae Scoporiae Herba from different regions. This approach overcomes the limitations of morphological and chemical methods, enhancing species identification accuracy and supporting a stable supply of medicinal materials.
