Objective:
To explore the relationship of family function with sleep and externalizing problem behaviors of preschool children, so as to provide a guidance for externalizing problem prevention and intervention among preschool children.
Methods:
From October 2023 to January 2024, a convenience sampling method was used to select 5 138 preschool children from kindergartens in 8 districts of Wuhan City, Hubei Province. Parents completed the survey for Family Adaptability and Cohesion Scale, children s sleep habits and Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL). Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation of family function with scores of sleep quality and externalizing problem behaviors among preschool children. A mediation model analysis and bootstrap test were conducted to further investigate the mediating role of sleep quality between family function and externalizing problem behaviors. Mplus 8.7 software was used for latent profile analysis of family function.
Results:
The reported rates of poor sleep quality and externalizing problem behaviors among preschool children were 11.8% ( n =607), 20.0% ( n =1 026). The relevant analysis results showed that family function was negatively correlated with sleep quality and externalizing problem behaviors ( r = -0.20, -0.23), and sleep quality was positively correlated with externalizing problem behaviors ( r =0.27) ( P <0.01). The mediation effect test showed that family function negatively predicted externalizing problem behaviors ( β =-0.079) and sleep quality ( β = -0.075), while sleep quality positively predicted externalizing problem behaviors ( β =0.215) ( P <0.01). The latent profile analysis results showed that family function could be classified into 4 categories: high family function group (23.01%), upper middle family function group (44.65%), moderate family function group (26.24%) and low family function group (6.11%). Compared to high family function, the other three categories significantly positively predicted externalizing problem behaviors, and the mediating effects of sleep quality on different categories of family function were statistically significant [upper middle family function: mediation effect value was 0.022 (95% CI =0.004-0.041) and direct effect value was 0.329 (95% CI =0.263-0.396); middle family function: mediation effect value was 0.087 (95% CI =0.063-0.115) and direct effect value was 0.491 (95% CI =0.416-0.565); low family function: mediation effect value was 0.144 (95% CI =0.107-0.185) and direct effect 0.621 (95% CI =0.503-0.740)] ( P < 0.05 ).
Conclusion
Family function negatively predicts the externalizing problem behaviors of preschool children, and sleep quality plays a partial mediating role.

OBJECTIVE To study the chemical components, components migrating to the blood and metabolites of Sanhua decoction in rats. METHODS Male Wistar rats were divided into administration group and blank group, with 6 rats in each group. The rats in the administration group were given 13.3 g/kg of Sanhua decoction lyophilized powder solution by gavage once a day in the morning and evening, and the rats in the blank group were given an equal volume of saline by gavage once a day in the morning and evening, both for 3 consecutive days. Plasma samples were collected from the two groups of rats after the last administration. The chemical components, prototype components migrating to the blood and metabolites of Sanhua decoction were analyzed by UHPLC-Q-TOF/MS technique. The structures were identified combined with the self-built natural product high- resolution mass spectrometry database and relevant literature. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Totally 69 compounds were identified from the lyophilized powder of Sanhua decoction, including 29 components from Rheum officinale, 16 components from Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex, 22 components from Aurantii Fructus Immaturus, and 10 components from Notopterygii Rhizoma et Radix. Among them, 3 components (citric acid, L-tyrosine, adenosine) were present in all 4 medicinal herbs. Another component (feruloylgluconic acid) still needed to be specifically attributed. A total of 43 prototype components migrating to the blood were identified, including flavonoids, phenols, anthraquinones, phenylpropanoids, alkaloids and triterpenoids. A total of 61 metabolites were identified, predominantly consisting of flavonoids, anthraquinones and phenylpropanoids. The metabolic pathways mainly involved phase Ⅰ metabolic reactions such as demethylation and phase Ⅱ metabolic reactions like sulfation and glucuronidation.

This article explored the treatment of laryngopharyngeal reflux disease (LPRD) from the perspective of ascending and descending of qi. It is believed that the disorder of qi movement of the middle jiao (焦) is the key to the pathogenesis of LPRD. The ascending and descending disorder of liver and lung is an important factor in its prolongation and progression. The treatment of LPRD should follow the nature of the spleen and stomach, with the focus on fortifying and transporting the spleen and the stomach, supplemented by soothing the liver and diffusing the lung. The herbs such as Cangzhu (Rhizoma Atractylodis), Fuling (Poria), Yiyiren (Semen Coicis), Gegen (Radix Puerariae Lobatae) and Shanyao (Rhizoma Dioscoreae) could be used for fortifying and circuiting the center earth, and Chaihu (Radix Bupleuri), Muxiang (Radix Aucklandiae), Zhiqiao (Fructus Aurantii) and Baishao (Radix Paeoniae Alba) for soothing the liver and nourishing the blood to harmonize the ascending and descending. Jiegeng (Radix Platycodonis) and Xuanfuhua (Japanese Inula Flower) are supplemented to diffuse and direct lung qi downward thereby mediating the center jiao. In this way, the qi movement of the spleen and stomach is restored, and the ascending and descending between the liver and lung are harmonized, and therefore the disease is cureda.

ObjectiveTo explore the common syndrome elements of cerebral ischemic stroke (CIS) complicated with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS), reveal the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes of the disease, clarify the syndrome differentiation and syndrome types, provide evidence for clinical syndrome differentiation, and provide reference for establishing the TCM syndrome type standards of CIS complicated with OSAHS. MethodThe clinical information form of CIS complicated with OSAHS formulated by the research group was used for syndrome survey, and the four-examination information of 300 patients with CIS complicated with OSAHS was collected. The four-examination information of patients was analyzed by latent structure method and comprehensive cluster analysis, and the common syndrome elements of CIS complicated with OSAHS were extracted by combining the TCM basic theory and clinical experience. On this basis, the characteristics of TCM syndromes and the syndrome types in line with reality were summarized. ResultThe top five syndrome elements in patients with CIS and OSAHS are sleep snoring, open mouth breathing, physical obesity, night awakening and dizziness. The top five tongue and pulse manifestations are enlarged tongue, slippery pulse, slippery coating, thick and white coating and purple tongue. The disease locations are the lung, spleen, stomach, kidney, liver and brain. The nature of disease includes deficiency, depression, blood stasis, phlegm, dampness and fire. The clinical syndrome types include the syndrome of stagnation of phlegm and dampness, syndrome of phlegm-dampness blocking the mind, syndrome of spleen deficiency with dampness, syndrome of Yin deficiency leading to fire hyperactivity, syndrome of Qi depression blocking collaterals, syndrome of liver depression and blood stasis, syndrome of Qi deficiency with dampness, and syndrome of Yang deficiency induced water retention. ConclusionIn addition to the common phlegm-, dampness- and blood stasis-related syndromes in patients with CIS and OSAHS, there are also depression- and deficiency-related syndromes. The main etiology and pathogenesis is the disturbance of Qi movement. In clinical practice, attention should be paid to the specific situation of individual patients to differentiate between deficiency and excess, and the treatment should be performed by the method of soothing and reinforcing, or unblocking and clearing, or both.

Dystrophinopathies caused by variants of DMD gene are a group of muscular diseases including Duchenne muscular dystrophy, Becker muscular dystrophy, and DMD-associated dilated cardiomyopathy. With the advancement of genetic testing techniques and wider implementation of genetic screening, especially the expanded carrier screening, more and more individuals carrying DMD gene variants have been identified, whereas the genetic counseling capacity is relatively insufficient. Currently there is still a lack of professional norms for genetic counseling on dystrophinopathies. In this consensus, the main points to be covered in the pre- and post-test consultation have been discussed, with an aim to provide genetic counseling guidance for the disease diagnosis, treatment, and family reproduction.

Objective:To analyze the seroepidemiological characteristics of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection among adolescents aged 0-14 years in Henan Province and to evaluate the effectiveness of the childhood hepatitis B vaccine (HepB) immunization program.Methods:From September 2021 to March 2022, a total of 4 883 adolescents aged 0-14 years were selected from 25 villages or communities of 18 provincial-level cities in Henan Province by using the multi-stage random cluster sampling method. Demographic data were collected through questionnaires. The 3 ml of blood samples were collected from individuals aged 0-4 years and 5 ml of blood samples were collected from individuals aged 5-14 years to test HBsAg, HBcAb and HBsAb. Data on vaccination were collected through Henan Provincial Immunization Information System and hepatitis B cases in Henan Province were collected through China Infectious Disease Reporting System. The effectiveness of the childhood HepB immunization program was analyzed.Results:The average age of 4 883 subjects was (7.32±2.81) years old. The positive rates of HBsAg and HBcAb were 0.1% (7/4 883) and 1.0% (50/4 883), and the population standardized rates were 0.3% and 1.7%. In 2002, the positive rate of HBsAg among adolescents aged 0-14 years in Henan Province was 3.39%. Compared with that in 2002, the number of chronic HBV infections among adolescents in Henan Province in 2022 decreased by about 0.7 million. In 2002, the vaccination rate of newborns who completed all three doses of vaccine was 6.26%. In 2003, the vaccination rate of the hepatitis B vaccine rose rapidly, reaching 90% in 2013 for the first time. After 2014, the vaccination rate in Henan Province continued to remain above 95%. The proportion of cases among children aged 1-4 years in clinical reports decreased from 0.43% (1 108/256 566) in 2006 to 0.01% (78/80 655) in 2021. The proportion of cases among adolescents aged 5-19 years decreased from 18.21% (46 710/256 566) in 2006 to 1.1% (827/80 655) in 2021.Conclusions:From 2002 to 2022, the positive rate of HBsAg among adolescents aged 0-14 years has decreased significantly in Henan Province. The effectiveness of the HepB immunization program for children is good.
