Objective To observe the effect of Ginkgo biloba extract(GBE)on depression like behavior in post stroke depression(PSD)model rats,and explore the mechanism of regulating Toll like receptor 4/nuclear factor-κ B(TLR4/NF-κB)pathway to inhibit neuroinflammation.Methods Rats were randomly divided into 6 groups,sham,cerebral ischemia,PSD,paroxetine,low-dose Ginkgo biloba extract(GBE-L)and high-dose Ginkgo biloba extract(GBE-H)groups,10 rats in each group.Except for the sham group,middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)was performed to prepare a left focal cerebral ischemia model.Except for the sham group and cerebral ischemia group,other groups were subjected to chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS)to establish PSD rat model for 8 weeks.After 4 weeks of CUMS,the paroxetine group,GBE-L,and GBE-H were treated with paroxetine 5 mg·kg-1,GBE 50 mg·kg-1,and GBE 100 mg·kg-1,respectively.The sham group,cerebral ischemia group,and PSD group were treated with the same volume of 0.9％NaCl and continuously administered by gavage for 28 d.After 4 weeks and 8 weeks of CUMS,the body weight and sugar preference test were measured.Levels of serum tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1 β(IL-1 β)and levels of norepinephrine(NE),serotonin(5-HT),and dopamine(DA)in the cerebral cortex were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The mRNA levels of Tlr4,Nfkb1,and nuclear factor κ B-kinase subunit β inhibitory factor(Ikbkb)in the hippocampus of rats were detected by polymerase chain reaction.The protein levels of NF-κB,nuclear factor κB inhibitory protein α(IKBα)and phosphorylation nuclear factor κB inhibitory protein α(p-IKB)in hippocampal tissue were detected by Western blot.Results The body weights of rats in the sham group,cerebral ischemia group,PSD group,paroxetine group,GBE-L group and GBE-H group were(427.10±6.36),(403.10±7.37),(310.10±9.71),(355.00±4.03),(347.90±9.88)and(391.90±5.07)g;sugar preference rate were(93.93±1.78)％,(91.57±1.03)％,(54.72±7.34)％,(88.35±4.36)％,(63.55±12.73)％and(81.04±4.31)％;the levels of NE in the cerebral cortex were(1 951.14±52.86),(1 827.27±23.63),(1 662.12±35.92),(2 033.58±72.28),(1 887.31±33.07)and(2 175.00±42.54)pg·mL-1;the levels of 5-HT in the cerebral cortex were(237.07±8.86),(226.15±10.27),(214.51±3.46),(297.13±5.79),(274.14±7.63)and(285.34±8.72)ng·mL-1;the levels of DA in the cerebral cortex were(1 531.11±47.26),(1 209.89±58.09),(1 143.15±36.31),(1 812.67±51.28),(1 651.56±31.82)and(1 853.33±20.42)pg·mL-1.Compared with the PSD group,GBE significantly increased the body weight of rats(P＜0.01)and increased the preference rate of sugar water in rats,showing the antidepressant like behavioral.GBE significantly reduced the levels of serum TNF-α,IL-1 β(all P＜0.01),increased the levels of NE,5-HT,and DA in the cerebral cortex(all P＜0.01),down regulate the mRNA levels of Tlr4,Nfkb1 and Ikbkb(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),reduced the expression of NF-κB(P＜0.01),and reduced the phosphorylation of IKBα(P＜0.01).Conclusion Ginkgo biloba extract can improve depression-like behavior in PSD model rats,and has antidepressant effect.Its mechanism is related to the inhibition of TLR4/NF-κB pathway,thus reducing neuroinflammation.

The paper is to establish an UPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of 19 components in Microctis Folium from different production areas. The 50% methanol was used as extraction solvent. The Agilent ZORBAX SB C18 (150 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.8 μm) column was used; mobile phase was acetonitrile - 0.1% acetic acid with gradient elution, flow rate was 0.3 mL·min^-1, colume temperature was 30 ℃, and the injection volume was 2 μL; electrospray ionizaton source was used and detected in negative ion mode. The results showed that the established UPLC-MS/MS method could well separate the 19 components, and the methodological investigation results of 19 components were good. By means of orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), 28 batches of Microctis Folium samples from different production areas can be divided into three categories, Guangdong, Guangxi and Hainan are each classified into one category, and 10 signature compounds which affecting the quality differences of different production areas were screened out. The established method is accurate, reliable, sensitive and reproducible. It can provide a basis for the establishment of the quality standard of Microctis Folium, as well as for safety and quality research.

Regan Syrup has the effect of clearing heat, releasing exterior, benefiting pharynx and relieving cough, and previous phase Ⅱ clinical trial showed that the efficacy of Regan Syrup high-dose and low-dose groups was better than that of the placebo group, and there was no statistically significant difference in the safety between the three groups. The present study was conducted to further investigate the efficacy and safety of the recommended dose(20 mL) of Regan Syrup in the treatment of common cold(wind-heat syndrome). Patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected and divided into the test group(Regan Syrup+Shufeng Jiedu Capsules placebo), positive drug group(Regan Syrup placebo+Shufeng Jiedu Capsules) and placebo group(Regan Syrup placebo+Shufeng Jiedu Capsules placebo) at a 1∶1∶1 using a block randomization method. The course of treatment was 3 days. A total of 119 subjects were included from six study centers, 39 in the test group, 40 in the positive drug group and 40 in the placebo group. The onset time of antipyretic effect was shorter in the test group than in the placebo group(P≤0.01) and the positive drug group, but the difference between the test group and the positive drug group was not significant. The test group was superior to the positive drug group in terms of fever resolution(P<0.05), and had a shorter onset time of fever resolution than the placebo group, but without obvious difference between the two groups. Compared to the positive drug group, the test group had shortened disappearance time of all symptoms(P≤0.000 1). In addition, the test group was better than the positive drug group and the placebo group in relieving symptoms of sore throat and fever(P<0.05), and in terms of clinical efficacy, the recovery rate of common cold(wind-heat syndrome) was improved in the test group compared to that in the placebo group(P<0.05). On the fourth day after treatment, the total TCM syndrome score in both test group and positive drug group was lower than that in the placebo group(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between three groups and none of them experienced any serious adverse events related to the study drug. The results indicated that Regan Syrup could shorten the onset time of antipyretic effect, reduce the time of fever resolution, alleviate the symptoms such as sore throat and fever caused by wind-heat cold, reduce the total score of Chinese medicine symptoms, and improve the clinical recovery rate with good safety.

Objective:To know the current situation of kinesiophobia in patients after cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass, and to clarify its influencing factors, so as to provide reference for developing intervention strategies to improve kinesiophobia level.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. From February 2022 to September 2022, the patients after cardiac valve surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass in the Second Affiliated Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine were investigated by convenience sampling methods. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, The Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia Heart, Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale, Pain Catastrophizing Scale, and Adaptation, Partnership, Growth, Affection and Resolve(APGAR) as research tools, and the influencing factors were analyzed using univariate and binary Logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 219 patients were included, of which 97 patients (44.3%) had kinesiophobia. The results of binary Logistic regression analysis showed that monthly family income level, first time out of bed after operation, fear of falling, the family APGAR, and pain catastrophizing were significant influencing factors of kinesiophobia in patients after heart valve surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The prevalence of kinesiophobia is high among patients after heart valve surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass. Clinicians should pay attention to patients with low monthly family income level, late first time out of bed after surgery, and fear of falling, as well as strengthen communication with patients and families, focus on the management of acute postoperative pain. In order to reduce or avoid the occurrence of kinesiophobia and enable patients to benefit from early ambulation.
