Objective To investigate the post-discharge exercise behavior and factors influencing moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) in patients undergoing lung surgery. Methods A total of 2874 patients from the large prospective, observational perioperative lung symptom study cohort (CN-PRO-Lung 3) in the Department of Thoracic Surgery at Sichuan Cancer Hospital between April 7, 2021, and January 31, 2024, were selected as the survey subjects. A survey was conducted using the Investigation of Exercise Behavior after Lung Surgery questionnaire and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) among patients who underwent lung surgery. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors influencing patients’ engagement in MVPA. Results A total of 702 patients were surveyed, including 252 males and 450 females, with an average age of (52.4±10.2) years. Patients with lung cancer accounted for 85.9%. Only 36.0% of the patients had regular exercise habits, while 42.3% did not engage in any physical activity. The three main barriers for postoperative exercise were physical discomfort (pain, coughing, shortness of breath, etc, 54.7%), lack of professional guidance (41.7%), and concerns about the surgical wound (28.9%). The proportions of patients engaging in vigorous, moderate, and low-intensity physical activity were 5.7%, 28.2%, and 66.1%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that patients with a personal annual income ≥50000 yuan (OR=1.52, 95%CI 1.01-2.29, P=0.044), high school education or above (OR=1.92, 95%CI 1.33-2.76, P<0.001), and lobectomy (OR=1.44, 95%CI 1.02-2.03, P=0.037) engaged in more MVPA. Conclusion Patients undergoing lung surgery have inadequate physical activity after discharge, particularly lacking in MVPA. Patients with higher income, higher educational levels, and lobectomy are more frequently engaged in MVPA. Measures such as symptom control, providing exercise guidance, and enhancing education on wound care may potentially improve the inadequate physical activity in lung surgery patients after discharge.

Objective To explore the visiting behavior and health management strategy of patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and the industry management strategies under the family doctor contract service model. Methods A total of 351 patients with CVD from January 2022 to January 2025 were included in the case investigation by random sampling. Taking the number of visits in community health service institutions/total number of visits ≥90% as high compliance, the influencing factors of the visiting behavior of CVD patients were analyzed. Results Finally, 344 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective recovery rate of 98.01%. The study subjects were categorized into high compliance group (271 cases) and low compliance group (73 cases). The scores of policy cognition understanding, institutional trust and medical service understanding in the high compliance group were higher compared with those in the low compliance group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the understanding of medical expenses between the two groups (P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression model analysis revealed that CVD duration [OR (95% CI): 1.72 (1.21-2.44)], policy cognition understanding [OR (95% CI): 2.16 (1.20-3.89)] and institutional trust [OR (95% CI): 1.88 (1.08-3.25)] were independently associated with medical treatment behavior in CVD patients (P<0.05). Conclusion Enhancing the policy cognition understanding and institutional trust of CVD patients on family doctor contract service can promote patients to seek medical treatment and promote the high-quality development of family doctor contract service.

To explore the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and integrative TCM-Western medicine approaches in the treatment of diabetic microvascular complications (DMC), refine key pathophysiological insights and treatment principles, and promote academic innovation and strategic research planning in the prevention and treatment of DMC. The 38th session of the Expert Salon on Diseases Responding Specifically to Traditional Chinese Medicine, hosted by the China Association of Chinese Medicine, was held in Beijing, 2024. Experts in TCM, Western medicine, and interdisciplinary fields convened to conduct a systematic discussion on the pathogenesis, diagnostic and treatment challenges, and mechanism research related to DMC, ultimately forming a consensus on key directions. Four major research recommendations were proposed. The first is addressing clinical bottlenecks in the prevention and control of DMC by optimizing TCM-based evidence evaluation systems. The second is refining TCM core pathogenesis across DMC stages and establishing corresponding "disease-pattern-time" framework. The third is innovating mechanism research strategies to facilitate a shift from holistic regulation to targeted intervention in TCM. The fourth is advancing interdisciplinary collaboration to enhance the role of TCM in new drug development, research prioritization, and guideline formulation. TCM and integrative approaches offer distinct advantages in managing DMC. With a focus on the diseases responding specifically to TCM, strengthening evidence-based support and mechanism interpretation and promoting the integration of clinical care and research innovation will provide strong momentum for the modernization of TCM and the advancement of national health strategies.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the metabolic differences in roots, stems and leaves of Angelica dahurica (Fisch.ex Hoffm.) Benth. et Hook. f. ex Franch. et Savat. (shortened for A. dahurica ), and to provide a basis for the development and utilization of its medicinal resources. METHODS UPLC-MS/MS untargeted metabolomics technology was employed to detect metabolites in roots, stems and leaves of A. dahurica . Multivariate statistical analysis was used to screen differential metabolites and perform cluster analysis. Furthermore, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis was conducted on these differential metabolites. RESULTS A total of 769 metabolites were identified in roots, stems and leaves of A. dahurica . Among t hem, lipids, alkaloids, amino acids and their derivatives accounted for the highest proportion, which accounted for 14.31%, 13.91% and 13.65%, respectively, and the coumarin compounds accounted for 3.25%. Results of principal component analysis, orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis and cluster analysis indicated that there were certain differences in metabolites among the three tissues. A total of 205 differential metabolites were identified between stems and roots (82 up-regulated and 123 down-regulated), 326 differential metabolites between leaves and roots (247 up-regulated and 79 down-regulated), and 293 differential metabolites between the leaves and stems (263 up-regulated and 30 down-regulated). Further analysis of the differential coumarin metabolites in different plant parts revealed that several compounds, including ( R )-oxypeucedanin, 4-hydroxycoumarin, 4-methylumbelliferyl acetate, exhibited relatively high contents in the leaves. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis indicated that differential metabolites predominantly accumulated in the phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and ABC transporter pathways. CONCLUSIONS There are significant differences in metabolites among roots, stems and leaves of A. dahurica . Coumarin compounds are highly enriched in the leaves, and their synthesis and transport may be related to the synergistic effect of the phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathway and the ABC transporter pathway.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of colorectal adenomatous polyps.Methods:The clinical data of 395 patients who underwent colonoscopy in the Tongzhou branch, Tongzhou District, Dongzhimen Hospital Affiliated to Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from August 2017 to August 2021 were analyzed. According to the examination results, adenomatous polyps were divided into adenomatous polyps group (193 cases) and non-polyp group (202 cases). The risk factors of colorectal adenomatous polyps were screened by univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:The results of single factor analysis suggested that: body mass index (BMI), sex, age, proportion of blood type A, history of large intestine polyps, history of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection, history of alcohol consumption, history of smoking, proportion of heavy oil diet, history of oral calcium, history of oral statins, history of oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, history of oral antibiotics, and high fat diet (pork, beef, and animal organs), high salt diet, love of pickled food, love of sweet food, love of greasy, good mood, anxiety, depression, impatience and irritability, history of hypertension, diabetes and hyperlipidemia were statistically significant in the adenomatous polyp group and the non-polyp group (all P<0.05). Factors with P<0.05 in the above single factor analysis were taken as independent variables, and the incidence of disease was taken as dependent variable for multi-factor logistic regression analysis. The results showed that BMI, age, blood type A, Hp infection history, drinking history, smoking history, oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs history, oral antibiotics history, high salt diet, good mood, hypertension were the influencing factors for the incidence of adenomatous polyps (all P<0.05). Conclusions:High BMI, old age, blood type A, history of Hp infection, smoking history, oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug history, oral antibiotics history, high salt diet and hypertension are risk factors for the development of adenomatous polyps. Drinking alcohol and good mood can reduce the risk of colorectal adenomatous polyps. Therefore, targeted intervention measures can be formulated for high-risk patients to reduce the risk of colorectal adenomatous polyps.

This study aims to clarify the incidence and prevention status of dairy cow mastitis in 79 large-scale pastures in China in 2022,reduce the incidence of dairy cow mastitis,and provide scien-tific basis for formulating prevention and control strategies for dairy cow mastitis in large-scale pastures suitable for China's national conditions.The research team relied on the large-scale ranch of the Comprehensive Experimental Station of National Dairy Industry Technology System to car-ry out research.A total of 79 questionnaires were received.The information on the stock of large-scale farms,the proportion of cows in the herd,the level of cow yields,the incidence and cure rate of cow mastitis,the prevention and control of cow mastitis,diagnosis and treatment programs of cow mastitis,the cost of treating cow mastitis,and the culling rate of farms was collected.Chi-square test and correlation analysis were carried out on the incidence of mastitis in dairy cows and the prevention and control plan,treatment plan,yield level and elimination rate of mastitis in dairy cows by descriptive statistical cross table.The incidence of cow mastitis in some pastures was con-trolled between 5%and 10%,and the cure rate was mostly as high as 98%.According to the co-hort analysis,the importance of prevention and control measures for dairy cow mastitis was as fol-lows:DMT>DHI>milk yield>milk traits>breast apparent change>electrical conductivity>CMT.The importance of treatment measures for dairy cow mastitis is as follows:DMT>DHI>milk yield>milk traits>breast apparent changes>electrical conductivity>CMT.The importance of treatment measures for mastitis is as follows:traditional Chinese medicine>pathogen detection and drug sensitivity test>non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs>regular maintenance of milking equipment>normal milking without treatment>broad-spectrum antibiotics.The incidence of mas-titis in dairy cows is moderately positively correlated with the yield per unit area,that is,the in-crease in the incidence of mastitis in dairy cows has a certain impact on the yield per unit area of dairy cows.Economic analysis shows that the treatment cost of mastitis is closely related to the in-cidence rate,and the treatment cost of pasture with higher incidence rate is higher.Pastures with higher yields usually have more efficient means of disease prevention and control,and the corre-sponding treatment costs are lower.In conclusion,China's large-scale pastures should strengthen the scientific feeding management level,improve the prevention and control methods to reduce the incidence of cow mastitis,improve the cure rate,and reduce the cost of pasture treatment.
