In this paper， by referring to ancient and modern literature， the textual research of Inulae Flos has been conducted to clarify the name， origin， production area， quality evaluation， harvesting， processing and others， so as to provide reference and basis for the development and utilization of famous classical formulas containing this herb. After textual research， it could be verified that the medicinal use of Inulae Flos was first recorded in Shennong Bencaojing of the Han dynasty. In successive dynasties， Xuanfuhua has been taken as the official name， and it also has other alternative names such as Jinfeicao， Daogeng and Jinqianhua. The period before the Song and Yuan dynasties， the main origin of Inulae Flos was the Asteraceae plant Inula japonica， and from the Ming and Qing dynasties to the present， I. japonica and I. britannica are the primary source. In addition to the dominant basal species， there are also regional species such as I. linariifolia， I. helianthus-aquatili， and I. hupehensis. The earliest recorded production areas in ancient times were Henan， Hubei and other places， and the literature records that it has been distributed throughout the country since modern times. The medicinal part is its flower， the harvesting and processing method recorded in the past dynasties is mainly harvested in the fifth and ninth lunar months， and dried in the sun， and the modern harvesting is mostly harvested in summer and autumn when the flowers bloom， in order to remove impurities， dry in the shade or dry in the sun. In addition， the roots， whole herbs and aerial parts are used as medicinal materials. In ancient times， there were no records about the quality of Inulae Flos， and in modern times， it is generally believed that the quality of complete flower structure， small receptacles， large blooms， yellow petals， long filaments， many fluffs， no fragments， and no branches is better. Ancient processing methods primarily involved cleaning， steaming， and sun-drying， supplemented by techniques such as boiling， roasting， burning， simmering， stir-frying， and honey-processing. Modern processing focuses mainly on cleaning the stems and leaves before use. Regarding the medicinal properties， ancient texts describe it as salty and sweet in taste， slightly warm in nature， and mildly toxic. Modern studies characterize it as bitter， pungent， and salty in taste， with a slightly warm nature. Its therapeutic effects remain consistent across eras， including descending Qi， resolving phlegm， promoting diuresis， and stopping vomiting. Based on the research results， it is recommended that when developing famous classical formulas containing Inulae Flos， either I. japonica or I. britannica should be used as the medicinal source. Processing methods should follow formula requirements， where no processing instructions are specified， the raw products may be used after cleaning.

Objective To analyze the influenza-like illness (ILI) data in Ordos City from 2017 to 2023 and conduct nucleic acid detection of the virus to understand the local influenza epidemic situation, and to provide a reliable basis for influenza prevention and control in the city. Methods Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to identify virus subtypes in ILI throat swab samples. Comparisons of positive rates were conducted using the chi-square test, with a significance level of α=0.05. Results From 2017 to 2023, a total of 3,283,434 outpatient and emergency visits were recorded at the Ordos City Central Hospital, including 74,159 ILI cases, with an ILI proportion of 2.26%. The majority of ILI cases (74.43%) occurred in children aged 0~14 years old. The overall positive rate of influenza virus nucleic acid detection was 10.87%, with the highest proportion being subtype A (seasonal H3) at 43.03%. The highest detection rate was observed in the 5~14 years age group, with statistically significant differences in positive rates across age groups (χ²=155.638, P<0.001). Influenza peaks occurred mainly from November to March of the following year. From January to April, three types of influenza were prevalent alternately or mixed, while from October to December, subtype A (seasonal H3) predominated. Positive rates varied significantly across months (χ²=250.923, P<0.001). The temporal trends of ILI proportions and PCR-positive rates were consistent. Conclusion Influenza in Ordos City exhibits distinct seasonal and age distribution characteristics, with alternating or mixed circulation of three virus types. Continued efforts are needed to strengthen influenza surveillance, especially the prevention and control of influenza in infants and adolescents.

Objective:This study aims to clarify the role of family and community health environments in improving the health status of elderly patients with chronic diseases,and provide recommendations and references for optimizing and enhancing chronic disease management capabilities.Methods:Based on data from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study(CHARLS),this study analyzes a sample of 9,388 elderly patients with chronic diseases.A hierarchical linear model(HLM)is employed to examine the effects of family and community health environments on chronic disease management outcomes,as well as their variations across urban-rural settings and disease types.Results:The findings indicate that a supportive family health environment significantly improves both self-rated health(β=0.097,P<0.001)and disease control outcomes(β=0.033,P<0.05)among elderly patients with chronic diseases.In contrast,community health environments contribute positively only to self-rated health(β=0.062,P<0.001)but do not significantly affect disease control outcomes.Moreover,no moderating effect of community health environments was observed on the relationship between family health environments and either self-rated health or disease control.The effects of family and community health environment on self-rated health and control results were different between urban and rural areas,while the effects of family health environment on control results were different in disease types.Conclusion:The explanatory power of the family health environment on the health status of elderly patients with chronic diseases is higher than that of the community health environment.However,the two have not been effectively integrated.It is recommended to incorporate the health needs of elderly patients with chronic diseases into the optimization of healthy family construction and to establish a four-in-one comprehensive chronic disease management system involving"patients,families,communities,and primary healthcare institutions."new models for chronic disease management should be explored and innovated.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of frailty among the health check-up elder-ly participants from our outpatient clinic.Methods A total of 710 elderly individuals(≥60 years old)who taking health check-up in our outpatient department between April and August 2022 were consecutively enrolled,and according to the results of Fried Frailty Phenotype Scale,they were divided into non-frailty group(422 cases),pre-frailty group(225 cases)and frailty group(63 cases).Their general clinical data,laboratory indicators and echocardiographic parameters were collected,and multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to identify the independent in-fluencing factors for pre-frailty and frailty.Results The overall prevalence of pre-frailty and frail-ty was 31.7％and 8.9％,respectively.The pre-frailty and frailty groups had obviously larger left atrial anterior-posterior diameter and left ventricular end diastolic diameter and lower left ventric-ular ejection fraction when compared with the non-frailty group(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that Hb was a protective factor for pre-frailty in the elderly partici-pants(OR=0.984,95％CI:0.966-0.992,P=0.048),while age(OR=1.064),CCI(OR=1.387)and LAAP(OR=1.059)were risk factors for pre-frailty in them(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Serum albumin was a protective factor for frailty(OR=0.823,95％CI:0.728-0.931,P=0.002),but age(OR=1.081),CCI(OR=1.458),left atrial anterior-posterior diameter(OR=1.249)and NT-proBNP(OR=1.652)were independent risk factors for frailty(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion There are differences in influencing factors for frailty of different severity,and the status of frailty is related to factors such as age,comorbidity,cardiac function and nutritional sta-tus.Therefore,comprehensive interventions should be implemented as early as possible for the elderly occurrence of pre-frailty so as to prevent and reverse frailty at the same time.
