In order to investigate the effects of Fuzi Lizhong Oral liquid on immune function and in-testinal health of chicks,185 1-day-old healthy chicks were randomly divided into 4 groups.The blank control group(CG group)was given normal tap water;the high,medium and low dose groups(FZH group,FZM group and FZL group)were given tap water containing 5.00,2.50 and 1.25 g/L of Fuzi Lizhong Oral liquid,respectively.Starting from the first day of age,the drug was administered continuously for 5 d,and the blood was collected from the subwing vein on the sixth day of the test.The results showed that compared with CG group,thymus index in FZH group was significantly increased(P＜0.05).Compared with CG group,serum IgM,IgG and sIgA in FZH group were significantly increased(P＜0.05),and serum IgG and sIgA in FZM group were signifi-cantly increased(P＜0.05).Compared with CG group,the relative expression of Occludin and Claudin-1 mRNA in FZH group was significantly increased(P＜0.05),and the relative expression of ZO-1 mRNA in FZM and FZH groups was significantly increased(P＜0.05).Compared with CG group,Shannon index of FZH group was significantly increased(P＜0.05),Simpson index of FZH group was significantly decreased(P＜0.05),and many beneficial bacteria such as Strepto-coccus spinosus,Eubacillus spinosus and Lactobacillus spinosus played a synergistic role.The results showed that adding 5.00 g/L Fuzi Lizhong Oral liquid in drinking water could improve the immunity of chicks,maintain the intestinal barrier function of chicks,increase the intestinal flora richness and promote the intestinal health of chicks.

A total of 300 1-day-old broilers were randomly divided into 5 groups with 5 replicates per group and 12 broilers per replicate.The control group was given free drinking water(CG),the astragalus polysaccharide control group(HPS)received 0.8 mL/L of astragalus polysaccharide o-ral liquid in drinking water,and the experimental groups(SBL,SBM,SBH)received 1.5,3.0,4.5 mL/,of Shenling Baizhu Oral Liquid in drinking water.The results showed as follows:com-pared to the CG group,SIgA content in HPS group,group SBM and group SBH was significantly increased(P＜0.05),IL-6 and IL-1β contents were significantly decreased(P＜0.05),Occludin,Mucin-2 and Bcl-2 contents were significantly increased(P＜0.05).The results of 16S rRNA test showed that the specific OUT number in groups HPS and SBM was significantly higher than that in group CG(P＜0.05),α diversity analysis showed that compared with group CG,Chao1 index and Simpson index of group HPS,group SBM and group SBH were significantly increased,and βdiversity analysis showed that there were significant differences in species composition between test group and blank control group(P＜0.05).The relative abundance analysis at the phylum level showed that the relative abundance of Firmicutes and Bacteroides in groups SBM and SBH was significantly higher than that in group CG(P＜0.05).The above results showed that Shenling Baizhu Oral Liquid could improve the intestinal health and enhance the resistance of broilers.

Objective:To investigate the effect of IL-37 on oxidized low-density lipoprotein(ox-LDL)-induced calcification in human aortic vascular smooth muscle cells(HA-SMCs)and the influence of toll-like receptor(TLR)/nuclear transcription factor(NF-κB)pathway and osteogenic transcription factors,to demonstrate the mechanism of IL-37 in calcification.Methods:The calcifica-tion model of HA-SMCs was treated with ox-LDL,and the model group was pretreated with 100 ng/ml IL-37 or 100 μmol/L PDTC.CCK8 was used to detect cell proliferation activity;flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis.Alizarin red staining was used to detect calcified nodules.The mRNA levels of smooth muscle actin(SMA),bone morphogenetic protein(BMP2)and IL-37 were detected by qPCR;mRNA and protein expression levels of TLR,NF-κB,p-NF-κB,RUNX-associated transcription factor(RUNX2),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),SMA and smooth muscle 22α(SM22α)were detected by qPCR and Western blot.Results:Compared with the control group,ox-LDL treatment enhanced cellular proliferation activity and was concentration-dependent(P<0.05),and apoptosis rate was increased,while the model group produced significant orange-red calcified nodules,up-regulated mRNA and protein expres-sion of inflammatory factors such as TLR and NF-κB,up-regulated mRNA expression of IL-37,RUNX2,BMP2,ALP,while SMA and SM22α mRNA expressions were decreased,and the protein expressions of p-NF-κB and RUNX2 were increased significantly;compared with the modeling group,the IL-37 pretreatment group showed lower viability and decreased apoptosis rate(P<0.05),sig-nificantly reduced calcified nodules,and the mRNA and protein expression of inflammatory factors such as TLR and NF-κB,and mRNA of RUNX2,BMP2,ALP expressions were downregulated,mRNA expression of SMA and SM22α were elevated,and protein expressions of p-NF-κB and RUNX2 were significantly decreased,showing the same trend as the inhibitor PDTC group in cytokines.Conclusion:IL-37 inhibits calcification of HA-SMCs,which may be related to the inhibition of NF-κB pathway and osteogenic pheno-type transformation.

One-day-old AA broilers were divided into five groups(15 chickens each,5 replicates per group):control(basic diet),three groups with low,medium,and high doses of crude extract of Flos sophorae and Fructus sophorae(100,150,200 mg/kg),and one group with Macleaya cordata extract(300 mg/kg).The 42-day trial measured intestinal enzyme activity,morphology,antioxidant and immune capacity,barrier function,and microbiota structure and diversity.Compared to the control and Macleaya cordata groups,the high-dose crude extract of Flos sophorae and Fructus sophorae group significantly increased trypsin activity in the duodenum,jejunum,and ileum(P＜0.05).It also reduced reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde levels,increased glu-tathione peroxidase activity,reduced tumor necrosis factor-α,increased interleukin-10,and elevated mRNA expression of tight junction protein-1 and mucin-2 in the jejunum(P＜0.05).Microbial di-versity analysis showed higher Shannon index,increased Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes,decreased Proteobacteria,and more beneficial bacteria in the high-dose group(P＜0.05).Supplementing 200 mg/kg of crude extract of Flos sophorae and Fructus sophorae enhances intestinal morpholo-gy and function,and promotes intestinal health,thereby increasing farming efficiency.

Objective To analyze the antihypertensive compliance rate,drug use and complication distribution among very old hypertensive inpatients under the antihypertensive standard of 150/90 mm Hg in our country(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa).Methods A total of 409 hospitalized patients aged ≥80 years and diagnosed with hypertension in all departments of Air Force Medical Center of PLA were enrolled,and according to their clinical outcomes,they were divided into intensive antihypertensive group(106 cases,SBP＜130 mm Hg),standard antihypertensive group(155 ca-ses,SBP 130-149 mm Hg)and non-standard blood pressure group(148 cases,SBP ≥150 mm Hg).The status of blood pressure control was analyze in each group.Results When 150/90 mm Hg was used as the blood pressure standard,25.9％were in the intensive blood pressure group,37.9％were in the standard blood pressure group,36.2％were in the non-standard blood pressure group.The proportion of patients aged＞90 years was significantly lower in the non-standard blood pressure group than the intensive antihypertensive group and the standard anti-hypertensive group(4.1％vs 7.5％and 12.3％,P＜0.05).The ratio of single-drug therapy was significantly higher in the standard antihypertensive group than the intensive antihypertensive group(46.5％vs 32.1％,P＜0.05),and that of dual combination therapy was obviously higher in the intensive antihypertensive group than the standard antihypertensive group(35.8％vs 22.6％,P＜0.05).The proportions of heart damage and cerebrovascular damage were significantly higher(43.4％vs 21.9％,26.4％vs 14.8％),and the proportion of complicated retinopathy was notably lower(11.3％vs 23.9％)in the intensive antihypertensive group than the standard antihypertens-ive group(P＜0.05).Conclusion For very old hypertensive patients in our country,it is more sci-entific and practical to use 150/90 mm Hg as the starting standard for blood pressure reduction.Intensified blood pressure reduction increases cardiovascular and cerebrovascular damages in them instead.

Objective:To explore the impact of negative perfectionism on academic procrastination, as well as the mediating role of anxiety and the moderating role of negative cognitive emotion regulation strategies.Methods:In December 2022, a cross-sectional survey was conducted on 4 178 students from a medical college in Heilongjiang Province. The Zi negative perfectionism questionnaire, procrastination assessment scale-student, generalized anxiety disorder-7, and cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire were used to conduct the questionnaire survey, and 4 004 valid questionnaires were recovered. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for common method deviation test, descriptive statistics and correlation analysis, PROCESS macro program was used for mediation and moderation effect analysis.Results:(1) The scores of nursing students' negative perfectionism, anxiety, negative cognitive emotion regulation strategy, and academic procrastination were (120.48±23.40), (12.75±5.36), (44.82±11.20), and (42.95±14.30), respectively. (2) Negative perfectionism was positively correlated with anxiety ( r=0.311, P<0.01) and academic procrastination ( r=0.113, P<0.01). Academic procrastination was positively correlated with anxiety ( r=0.190, P<0.01) and negative cognitive emotion regulation strategies ( r=0.260, P<0.01). (3) Anxiety played a partially mediating role between negative perfectionism and academic procrastination, with direct effect and mediating effect accounting for 49.11% (0.055/0.112) and 50.89% (0.057/0.112) of the total effect, respectively. (4) The effect of negative perfectionism on anxiety was moderated by negative cognitive emotions, and the predictive effect of negative perfectionism on anxiety was stronger in nursing college students with high negative cognitive emotion ( β=0.231, P<0.001). Conclusion:Among nursing college students, negative perfectionism can predict academic procrastination through anxiety, and cognitive emotion regulation strategies moderate the predictive effect of negative perfectionism on anxiety.
