ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Liuwei Dihuangwan on behavioral impairments in the rat model of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and explore the mechanism of action. MethodsTwelve SD pregnant rats were intraperitoneally injected with valproic acid (VPA) (10 rats) or normal saline (2 rats), and male offspring were selected to establish the model of ASD and the control rats. Rats were randomly assigned into model, low-dose (0.75 g·kg-1) and high-dose (1.5 g·kg-1) Liuwei Dihuangwan, vitamin D (positive drug, 3.7×10-5 g·kg-1), and blank groups. Each group was administrated with the corresponding concentration of drugs or the same volume of normal saline by gavage for 2 weeks. After the intervention, the three-chamber social test was conducted to evaluate social interaction and social preference. The open field test was carried out to observe spontaneous behavior and anxiety state. Hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE) was used to observe the pathological changes of the prefrontal tissue. Transmission electron microscopy was employed to observe the ultrastructure of mitochondria in prefrontal neurons. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule-1 (Iba-1) in the prefrontal tissue. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was adopted to measure the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Western blot was employed to assess the expression differences of phosphorylated adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (p-AMPK), adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), phosphorylated Unc-51-like autophagy-activating kinase 1 (p-ULK1), Unc-51-like autophagy-activating kinase 1 (ULK1), and FUN14 domain-containing protein 1 (FUNDC1). ResultsCompared with the blank group, the model group spent less time sniffing stranger 1 and stranger 2 in the three-chamber social test (P<0.01) and showed reductions in the total distance traveled, average speed, distance traveled in the central area, and time spent in the central area in the open field test (P<0.01). In addition, the model group showed extensive apoptosis of neurons, with shrunken nuclei and red-stained cytoplasm, and extensive necrosis of neurons in the prefrontal tissue, mitochondrial swelling, decreased matrix density, disrupted cristae, and autophagic lysosomes in neurons, increases in the rate of Iba-1 positive cells in the prefrontal area (P<0.01) and the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 (P<0.01), and down-regulation in the expression of p-AMPK/AMPK, p-ULK1/ULK1, and FUNDC1 (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, low-dose and high-dose Liuwei Dihuangwan and the vitamin D prolonged the time spent sniffing stranger 1 and stranger 2 in the three-chamber social test (P<0.05, P<0.01), increased the total distance traveled, average speed, distance traveled in the central area, and time spent in the central area in the open field test (P<0.05, P<0.01), restored the morphology of neurons in the prefrontal tissue, decreased the number of apoptotic cells, alleviated the swelling of mitochondria in neurons, increased the matrix density, mitigated the fragmentation and disorder of cristae, and increased the number of autophagosomes. Moreover, the drugs decreased the rate of Iba-1 positive cells in the prefrontal area (P<0.01), lowered the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 (P<0.01), and up-regulated the expression of p-AMPK/AMPK, p-ULK1/ULK1, and FUNDC1 (P<0.01). ConclusionLiuwei Dihuangwan ameliorate autism-like behaviors and reduce neuronal apoptosis and neuroinflammatory damage in the rat model of ASD by promoting mitophagy mediated by the AMPK/ULK1/FUNDC1 pathway.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the application status of prescription pre-review systems in healthcare institutions of Yunnan province, evaluate their system functions and management capabilities, and provide a practical basis for promoting rational drug use. METHODS A questionnaire survey was conducted among public healthcare institutions at or above the secondary level in Yunnan province to investigate the deployment status of the systems. A capability maturity assessment framework was constructed, encompassing 6 dimensions and 39 indicators, including real-time prescription review, prescription correlation review, rule setting, evidence-based information support, prescription authority management, and system operation management. This framework was then used to evaluate the institutions that had implemented the pre-review systems. RESULTS A total of 100 valid questionnaires were collected, with 37 institutions having adopted prescription pre-review systems, mainly tertiary hospitals. The system predominantly adopted a modular architecture and was embedded into the hospital information system through application programming interfaces and middleware, providing certain capabilities for real-time prescription risk identification. Evaluation results indicated that basic functions such as reviewing indications, contraindications, and drug compatibility performed well, while deficiencies remained in functions related to parenteral nutrition prescription, review of drug dosage for specific diseases, individual patient characteristic recognition, and rule setting. Moreover, the construction of review centers and establishment of management systems were also not well-developed. CONCLUSIONS The overall application rate of prescription pre-review systems in Yunnan province remains low. System functions and management mechanisms require further improvement. It is recommended to enhance information infrastructure in lower-level institutions and explore regionally unified review models to promote standardized and intelligent development of prescription review practices.

ObjectiveTo provide a basis for the establishment of an ideal animal model of allergic asthma by statistically analyzing the modeling characteristics and the selection of indicators of the available models. MethodsWe retrieved the relevant articles from China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI), VIP, Wanfang Data, SinoMed, and PubMed with "allergic asthma" as the keyword and the time interval from January 2019 to January 2024. Through integrating the literature and extracting data, we used Excel 2021 to create a personal database and sorted out the animal strains, genders, allergenic substances, modeling routes, and test indicators and methods. Excel 2021, Cytoscape 3.10.2, and SPSS Modeler 18.0 were then used to analyze the relevant characteristics of the animal models. ResultsA total of 418 articles were included in the database, and the comparative analysis showed that the most frequently used animal strain for modeling was BALB/c mice, and female animals were mostly used. The main modeling method was sensitization by intraperitoneal injection of ovalbumin (OVA), which was combined with intranasal inhalation. The test indicators mainly included appearance signs, cellular analysis, lung histopathology, lung function indicators, and protein and gene expression in the lung. The test methods mainly involved pathological staining, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, Western blot, and polymerase chain reaction(PCR) assays. ConclusionThere is no recognized modeling method or evaluation standard for the animal models of allergic asthma. Based on the results of data analysis, the OVA-induced allergic asthma model in BALB/c mice is recommended. The main criteria for evaluating the success of modeling are the general behavioral changes, the morphological changes of the airway and inflammatory cell infiltration in the lung tissue, the changes of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the serum, and the alterations of inflammatory cells in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid.

In 2022, Hainan provincial government launched the project for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis with the goals of a hepatitis B screening rate of 90%, a diagnostic rate of 90%, and a treatment rate of 80% among people aged 18 years and above by the year 2025, and the main intervention measures include population-based prevention, case screening, antiviral therapy, and health management. As of December 31, 2024, a total of 6.875 million individuals in the general population had been screened for hepatitis B, with a screening rate of 95.6%. A total of 184 710 individuals with positive HBsAg were identified, among whom 156 772 were diagnosed through serological reexamination, resulting in a diagnostic rate of 84.9%. A total of 50 742 patients with chronic hepatitis B were identified, among whom 42 921 had hepatitis B-specific health records established for health management, with a file establishment rate of 84.6%. A total of 31 553 individuals received antiviral therapy, with a treatment rate of 62.2%. A total of 2.503 million individuals at a high risk of hepatitis C were screened, among whom 4 870 tested positive for HCV antibody and 3 858 underwent HCV RNA testing, resulting in a diagnostic rate of 79.2%, and 1 824 individuals with positive HCV RNA were identified, among whom 1 194 received antiviral therapy, with a treatment rate of 65.5%. In addition, 159 301 individuals with negative HBsAg and anti-HBs and an age of 20 — 40 years were inoculated with hepatitis B vaccine free of charge. Through the implementation of the project for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis, a large number of hepatitis patients have been identified, treated, and managed in the province within a short period of time, which significantly accelerates the efforts to eliminate the crisis of viral hepatitis.

[Objective] To analyse the distribution of antigen phenotypes in the Rh, MNS and Kidd blood group systems of Han and Tujia blood donors in Chongqing, and to provide data support for the establishment of an expanded blood group antigen phenotype database and the development of expanded blood group coordinated transfusion in blood donors. [Methods] The antigens of Rh, MNS and Kidd blood group systems in Han and Tujia blood donors in Chongqing were detected by test-tube method, and the Hardy-Weinborg anastomosis of the three blood group systems was calculated. Pearson's chi-square test and Fisher's exact probability method were used to compare the differences in phenotypic distribution frequencies among different regions and ethnic groups. [Results] Han and Tujia blood donors accounted for the highest proportion of CCee in the antigenic phenotype of the Rh blood group system, followed by CcEe, and then Ccee and ccEE. Tujia blood donors accounted for 52.02% of CCee, which was higher than that of Han blood donors (47.24%), while Han blood donors accounted for 32.20% of CcEe, which was higher than that of Tujia blood donors (28.94%). In the antigenic phenotype of the MNS blood group system, the blood donors of Han nationality and Tujia were MN>MM>NN,. The antigen phenotype distribution frequency of the Kidd blood group system was highest for Jk(a+b+) among both Han and Tujia blood donors, and the blood donors of Han nationality were Jk(a+b+)>Jk(a+b+), while those of Tujia were Jk(a-b+)>Jk(a+b-). The antigens of the three blood groups of Han and Tujia blood donors were consistent with the Hardy-Weinberg balance(P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the frequency of antigen phenotypes of the three blood group systems between Han and Tujia blood donors(P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the phenotypic distribution frequency of Rh antigens between Chongqing and Xi'an, Zhejiang, Shantou, Foshan, Nanning and Yangzhou(P<0.05), but not with Guang'an and Shenzhen(P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the phenotypic distribution frequency of Rh antigens between Han, Tujia, Zang, Mongolian, Korean and Hani ethnic groups in Chongqing(P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the phenotypic distribution frequency of MNS antigens between Han blood donors in Chongqing and Urumqi, Hainan and Yuncheng, but not with Xi'an and Wenzhou. There was a statistically significant difference in the phenotypic distribution frequency of MNS antigen between Tujia blood donors in Chongqing and Urumqi and Hainan(P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the phenotypic distribution frequency of MNS antigen between Tujia blood donors in Chongqing, Urumqi and Hainan(P>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in the phenotypic distribution frequency of Kidd antigens between blood donors in Chongqing and Harbin(P<0.05), but not in Huizhou, Wenzhou and Yichang(P>0.05). [Conclusion] The population in Chongqing has multi-ethnic characteristics, and the antigenic phenotypes of Rh, MNS and Kidd blood group systems exhibit diversity and regional differences. Establishing an expanded blood bank can provide more options for precision blood transfusion.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an increasingly widespread sleep-breathing disordered disease, and is an independent risk factor for many high-risk chronic diseases such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke, arrhythmias and diabetes, which is potentially fatal. The key to the prevention and treatment of OSA is early diagnosis and treatment, so the assessment and diagnostic technologies of OSA have become a research hotspot. This paper reviews the research progresses of severity assessment parameters and diagnostic technologies of OSA, and discusses their future development trends. In terms of severity assessment parameters of OSA, apnea hypopnea index (AHI), as the gold standard, together with the percentage of duration of apnea hypopnea (AH%), lowest oxygen saturation (LSpO2), heart rate variability (HRV), oxygen desaturation index (ODI) and the emerging biomarkers, constitute a multi-dimensional evaluation system. Specifically, the AHI, which measures the frequency of sleep respiratory events per hour, does not fully reflect the patients’ overall sleep quality or the extent of their daytime functional impairments. To address this limitation, the AH%, which measures the proportion of the entire sleep cycle affected by apneas and hypopneas, deepens our understanding of the impact on sleep quality. The LSpO2 plays a critical role in highlighting the potential severe hypoxic episodes during sleep, while the HRV offers a different perspective by analyzing the fluctuations in heart rate thereby revealing the activity of the autonomic nervous system. The ODI provides a direct and objective measure of patients’ nocturnal oxygenation stability by calculating the number of desaturation events per hour, and the biomarkers offers novel insights into the diagnosis and management of OSA, and fosters the development of more precise and tailored OSA therapeutic strategies. In terms of diagnostic techniques of OSA, the standardized questionnaire and Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) is a simple and effective method for preliminary screening of OSA, and the polysomnography (PSG) which is based on recording multiple physiological signals stands for gold standard, but it has limitations of complex operations, high costs and inconvenience. As a convenient alternative, the home sleep apnea testing (HSAT) allows patients to monitor their sleep with simplified equipment in the comfort of their own homes, and the cardiopulmonary coupling (CPC) offers a minimal version that simply analyzes the electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. As an emerging diagnostic technology of OSA, machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) adeptly pinpoint respiratory incidents and expose delicate physiological changes, thus casting new light on the diagnostic approach to OSA. In addition, imaging examination utilizes detailed visual representations of the airway’s structure and assists in recognizing structural abnormalities that may result in obstructed airways, while sound monitoring technology records and analyzes snoring and breathing sounds to detect the condition subtly, and thus further expands our medical diagnostic toolkit. As for the future development directions, it can be predicted that interdisciplinary integrated researches, the construction of personalized diagnosis and treatment models, and the popularization of high-tech in clinical applications will become the development trends in the field of OSA evaluation and diagnosis.

OBJECTIVE To establish population pharmacokinetic model of levetiracetam (Lev) for Chinese patients with post- stroke epilepsy (PSE), and provide reference for formulating individualized dosing regimens for Lev therapy in this specific population. METHODS Blood concentration data and clinical diagnosis and treatment information of PSE patients meeting the inclusion criteria were retrospectively collected and divided into model group and validation group at an 8∶2 ratio using a random number method. Based on the model group data, a population pharmacokinetic model was developed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling. Internal evaluation was performed through goodness-of-fit tests and bootstrap analysis, while external validation was conducted using the validation group data. RESULTS A total of 75 blood concentration measurements from 70 PSE patients were collected, with 60 measurements from 55 patients used for model development and 15 measurements from 15 patients reserved for external validation. The final model estimated a population typical value of clearance at 2.98 L/h. Estimated glomerular filtration rate, daily dose, and homocysteine level significantly influenced clearance of Lev (P<0.01). The model demonstrated satisfactory predictive performance, as evidenced by goodness-of-fit tests, bootstrap analysis, and external validation results. CONCLUSIONS Daily dose, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and homocysteine level are identified as significant covariates influencing Lev clearance in Chinese PSE patients. When making clinical decisions, comprehensive consideration should be given to the patient’s treatment response, physiological and pathological conditions, and the occurrence of adverse reactions, etc. The dosage of Lev should be adjusted based on the results of population pharmacokinetic model.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of the nitroglycerin-controlled low central venous pressure (CLCVP) technique on brain metabolic markers and cerebral blood oxygen saturation in patients undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy for liver cancer, and to reduce the risk of neurological complications. MethodsA total of 105 patients who underwent elective laparoscopic hepatectomy for liver cancer in Haikou Hospital Affiliated to Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from April 2020 to May 2023 were enrolled and randomly divided into CLCVP group with 54 patients and non-CLCVP group with 51 patients. The patients in the CLCVP group were treated with the nitroglycerin CLCVP technique during surgery, while those in the non-CLCVP group were given conventional surgical treatment. The two groups were compared in terms of the following indicators: perioperative indicators; hemodynamic parameters and cerebral oxygen metabolism before anesthesia induction (T0), at 5 minutes after anesthesia induction (T1), at 5 minutes after the beginning of liver parenchyma dissection (T2), at 5 minutes after the end of hepatectomy (T3), and immediately after the end of surgery (T4); the changes in liver function parameters after surgery; the incidence rate of adverse reactions. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups; the analysis of variance with repeated measures was used for comparison between multiple time points. ResultsCompared with the non-CLCVP group, the CLCVP group had significantly lower intraoperative blood loss and intraoperative fluid infusion volume (t=5.408 and 7.220, both P<0.05), while there were no significant differences between the two groups in time of operation, anesthesia time, extubation time, resuscitation time and intraoperative urine volume (all P>0.05). Compared with the data at T0, both groups had significant reductions in mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and central venous pressure during surgery (all P<0.05), and compared with the non-CLCVP group, the CLCVP group had significantly lower mean arterial pressure and central venous pressure (P<0.05) and a significantly higher heart rate (P<0.05) at T2 and T3. Compared with the data at T0, both groups had a significant reduction in Ca-jvDO2 at T2 — T4 time points (all P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in Ca-jvDO2 between the two groups at each time point (all P>0.05). Compared with the data at T0, the CLCVP group had a significant reduction in rSO2 at T2 — T4 time points (all P<0.05), and the CLCVP group had a significantly lower level of rSO2 than the non-CLCVP group at T2 — T3 time points (both P<0.05); there were no significant changes in CERO2 and Djv-aBL in either group at each time point (all P>0.05). At 3 and 7 days after surgery, both groups had significant increases in the liver function parameters of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and total bilirubin (TBil) (all P<0.05), and the CLCVP group had significantly lower levels of AST and ALT than the non-CLCVP group (all P<0.05); there was no significant difference in TBil between the two groups at each time point (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of perioperative complications between the two groups (χ2=0.729, P=0.394). ConclusionThe application of the nitroglycerin CLCVP technique in laparoscopic hepatectomy for liver cancer can reduce the amount of intraoperative blood loss in patients, but it is necessary to further enhance the monitoring of cerebral blood oxygen saturation during surgery, so as to reduce the risk of neurological complications as much as possible.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influencing factors for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes in pancreatic cancer by analyzing 608 cases, and to provide a theoretical reference for TCM syndrome differentiation and standardized treatment of pancreatic cancer. MethodsA total of 608 patients with a pathological or clinical diagnosis of pancreatic cancer who were admitted to Shanxi Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, The Affiliated Hospital of Shanxi University of Chinese Medicine, and Shanxi Provincial Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from January 2019 to December 2023 were enrolled, and TCM syndrome differentiation was performed. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups. The clinical data with statistical significance between groups were included in the regression analysis, and the unordered polytomous logistic regression model was used to investigate the influencing factors for the TCM syndrome of pancreatic cancer. ResultsFor the 608 patients with pancreatic cancer, common initial symptoms included abdominal pain (32.40%), abdominal distension (23.85%), fatigue (16.12%), and emaciation (10.03%), and the main clinical symptoms included poor appetite (75.97%), abdominal pain (67.27%), fatigue (61.84%), abdominal distension (57.40%), and emaciation (53.62%). There were significant differences between the patients with different TCM syndromes of pancreatic cancer in sex (χ2=62.823, P<0.001), disease duration (χ2=14.868, P=0.011), clinical stage (χ2=21.006, P<0.001), lymph node metastasis (χ2=2.205, P=0.032), surgery (χ2=38.008, P<0.001), chemotherapy (χ2=21.384, P<0.001), radiotherapy (χ2=17.510, P=0.004), and immunotherapy (χ2=18.573, P=0.002). The logistic regression analysis showed that male sex was a protective factor against Qi and blood deficiency syndrome (odds ratio [OR]=0.081, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.031 — 0.213, P<0.001), Qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome (OR=0.100, 95%CI: 0.041 — 0.247, P<0.001), and syndrome of Yin deficiency with internal heat (OR=0.158, 95%CI: 0.057 — 0.444, P<0.001), while it was a risk factor for the syndrome of damp-heat accumulation (OR=2.378, 95%CI: 1.074 — 5.266, P=0.033); the course of the disease of<1 year was a protective factor against Qi and blood deficiency syndrome (OR=0.167, 95%CI: 0.073 — 0.383, P<0.001), syndrome of spleen-kidney Yang deficiency (OR=0.183, 95%CI: 0.089 — 0.378, P<0.001), and syndrome of Yin deficiency and internal heat (OR=0.164, 95%CI: 0.070 — 0.385, P<0.001); clinical stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ/Ⅲ was a risk factor for damp-heat accumulation (OR=2.793, 95%CI: 1.259 — 6.196, P=0.012) and Qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome (OR=7.863, 95%CI: 2.808 — 22.020, P<0.001); lymph node metastasis was a risk factor for Qi and blood deficiency syndrome (OR=4.005, 95%CI: 1.477 — 10.861, P=0.006); surgical treatment was a risk factor for Qi and blood deficiency syndrome (OR=4.151, 95%CI: 1.916 — 8.995, P<0.001), syndrome of spleen-kidney yang deficiency (OR=5.352, 95%CI: 2.436 — 11.759, P<0.001), Qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome (OR=2.334, 95%CI: 1.071 — 5.088, P=0.033), and syndrome of Yin deficiency and internal heat (OR=4.167, 95%CI: 1.789 — 9.707, P<0.001); chemotherapy was a protective factor against damp-heat accumulation (OR=0.188, 95%CI: 0.082 — 0.428, P<0.001); radiotherapy was a risk factor for damp-heat accumulation (OR=2.571, 95%CI: 1.151 — 5.746, P=0.021) and syndrome of Yin deficiency with internal heat (OR=8.384, 95%CI: 3.348 — 20.997, P<0.001); immunotherapy was a risk factor for Qi and blood deficiency syndrome (OR=2.114, 95%CI: 1.021 — 4.379, P=0.044). ConclusionSex, course of the disease, clinical stage, presence or absence of lymph node metastasis, surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy are the main influencing factors for the TCM syndrome of pancreatic cancer.

Objective:
To explore the association between sleep quality and cardiorespiratory fitness among secondary school students, so as to provide a reference for promoting the overall development of physical and mental health of Chinese adolescents.
Methods:
From September to December 2023, 5 713 secondary school students aged 13 to 18 years were selected by the stratified cluster random sampling method from Shanghai, Suzhou, Taiyuan, Wuyuan, Xingyi, and Urumqi, respectively. Sleep quality and cardiorespiratory fitness level of secondary school students were evaluated by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI) combined with cardiorespiratory fitness test, and the association between sleep quality and cardiorespiratory fitness was analyzed by Pearson s correlation and multivariate linear regression.
Results:
The report rate of poor sleep quality among secondary school students was 33.7 %(1 926/5 713). The PSQI scores of girls aged 13-18 years were higher than those of boys ( χ 2=1.60, 12.78, 15.62, 3.04, 10.09, 13.65 ) ( P <0.05). The 20 m SRT of secondary school students was 40 (27,51) times, and the VO 2max was 46.27 (40. 84 ,51.30) mL/(kg min). The 20 m SRT and VO 2max of girls of all ages were lower than those of boys( Z =-15.27 to -6.41 , -18.06 to -14.07, P <0.05). Cardiorespiratory fitness (VO 2max) was negatively correlated with sleep duration and hypnotic medication scores in boys ( r =-0.032, -0.005); VO 2max was negatively correlated with sleep duration and daytime dysfunction scores in girls ( r =-0.028, -0.008) ( P <0.05). After controlling the related variables, linear regression analysis showed that the total PSQI score was negatively correlated with VO 2max among secondary school students( β =-0.347, P <0.01).
Conclusions
Secondary school students with better sleep quality have higher levels of cardiorespiratory fitness. Sleep quality should be promoted to improve cardiorespiratory fitness levels in secondary school students.
