Clopidogrel effectively inhibits platelet aggregation in response to ADP by irreversibly binding to the platelet P2Y₁₂ receptor through its active metabolite. However, the observed discrepancies between the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of clopidogrel present substantial challenges in individualizing of antiplatelet therapy. To address these challenges, a robust liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method has been developed to facilitate the real-time assessment of platelet P2Y₁₂ receptor occupancy. This method has been validated in animal models, providing a reliable link between individual PK profiles and PD effects. Target receptor occupancy offers a comprehensive overview of interindividual variations in clopidogrel metabolism, regulation of P2Y₁₂ receptor expression, and platelet turnover. Moreover, it directly correlates with the inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation. The levels of platelet P2Y₁₂ occupancy accurately reflect the extent of clinical factors influencing the PD of clopidogrel, including dosage, drug-drug interactions (DDI), and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). As a normalized metric, platelet P2Y₁₂ occupancy not only serves potential as a diagnostic tool for personalized clopidogrel therapy but also aids in elucidating the role of the P2Y₁₂ signaling pathway in cases of abnormal on-treatment platelet reactivity.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,distribution of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome types,and the anxiety and depression status in patients with colorectal polyps.Methods From January 2022 to December 2023,a total of 200 cases of patients with colorectal polyps(polyp group)and 100 patients without intestinal abnormalities(non-polyp group)under colonoscope who received colonoscopy or treatment at the Endoscopy Center of Dongguan Hospital,Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine were enrolled.The relevant medical information of the patients in the two groups were collected,and then TCM syndrome differentiation of patients with colorectal polyps were carried out,the general infromation including gender,age,body mass index(BMI),smoking history and alcohol-intake history was recorded,and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale(HAD)score was calculated for assessing their anxiety and depression status.Results(1)The investigation of clinical characteristics showed that between the polyp group and the non-polyp group,the differences in the general information of gender,age,BMI,smoking history and alcohol-intake history were statistically significant(P<0.05 or P<0.01).As for the gender,the polyp group was predominated by the male(63.5%),while the non-polyp group was predominated by the female(58.0%),indicating that male patients were more likely to suffer from colorectal polyps.In terms of the age,the age group of 51-60 years old accounted for a higher percentage(36.0%)in the polyp group,while the age group of 41-50 years old accounted for a higher percentage(38.0%)in the non-polyp group,indicating that the polyp group had an elder average age than the non-polyp group.In addition,the percentages of patients with obesity(BMI≥28.0 kg/m2),smoking history,and alcohol-intake history in the polyp group were higher than those in the non-polyp group.(2)The analysis of features of colorectal polyps showed that the polyps were mostly seen in the left colon,accounting for 53.5%in the polyp group;adenomatous polyps accounted for 57.0%of all polyps;the size of colorectal polyps was usually less than one centimeter,accounting for 81.5%of all polyps;single colorectal polyps accounted for 45.5%,and multiple colorectal polyps accounted for 54.5%,indicating that colorectal polyps were usually multiple.(3)Among the 200 patients with colorectal polyps,there were 93 cases of syndrome of stagnation dampness due to spleen deficiency(46.5%),59 cases of dampness-heat in large intestine syndrome(29.5%),27 cases of liver depression and qi stagnation syndrome(13.5%),and 21 cases of dampness and blood stasis obstruction syndrome(10.5%).There were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of TCM syndrome types among colorectal polyp patients with different genders,ages,BMIs and alcohol consumption(P>0.05).The difference in the distribution of TCM syndrome types among colorectal polyp patients with or without smoking history was statistically significant(P<0.05).No statistically significant differences were shown in the distribution of TCM syndrome types among the colorectal polyp patients with various foci,number of polyps,and pathological types(P>0.05).The difference in the distribution of TCM syndrome types in colorectal polyp patients with different polyp sizes was statistically significant(P<0.05).In the patients with the polyp size0.05).In addition,the differences of anxiety scores and depression scores in the patients with various TCM syndrome types were not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusion(1)The distribution of TCM syndrome types of colorectal polyps is predominated by the syndrome of stagnation dampness due to spleen deficiency and dampness-heat in large intestine syndrome.The distribution of TCM syndrome types has no correlation with anxiety and depression,and the polyp foci,number of polyps,and pathological types of polyps,but has certain correlation with the size of the polyps.(2)Anxiety and depression may be the risk factors for colorectal polyps,but the polyp foci,number of polyps,and pathological types of polyps have no correlation with anxiety and depression,and the size of polyps may have certain correlation with anxiety.(3)Gender,age,smoking history and alcohol-intake history may be the risk factors for colorectal polyps.

Objective: To understand indoor air quality in middle and primary schools of Hangzhou in autumn and winter seasons, and to provide references of promoting indoor air quality of schools. Methods: Totally 33 classrooms of 11 schools in urban area were selected into study during Sept.2018 to Jan.2019. Daily measurements of PM2.5 and CO2 were performed in selected classes during school working time by air quality monitors. Totally, monitoring data of 35 964 hours were analyzed using univariate and multiplicity analysis for PM2.5 and CO2 level, variability and possible influence factors. Results: In autumn and winter, hourly average values of classroom PM2.5 and CO2 concentration level in Hangzhou were between 35.30 to 74.65 μg/m3 and between 949.17 to 2 029.98 mg/m3, respectively. The concentration levels of PM2.5 and CO2 were higher with the temperature(F=1 412.84, 775.66, P<0.01). No statistical significance was be found for the difference of PM2.5 concentration among monitoring times. Wave changes in CO2 were observed with time variation PM2.5 and CO2 concentration level of 68.42% monitoring times was complied with standards. School type and temperature correlated with PM2.5 concentration level. The PM2.5 concentration level in senior high school was higher than that in junior high school, while the value in primary school was the minimum(β=0.44, P<0.01). And the PM2.5 concentration increased with the temperature decreased(β=8.31, P<0.01). School type, temperature and monitoring time correlated with CO2 concentration level. CO2 concentration increased with the increase of grade, decrease in temperature and later time during the day(β=213.64, 162.38, P<0.01). The CO2 concentration level in later monitoring time was lower than that in earlier monitoring time(β=-16.28, P<0.01). Conclusion Classroom CO2 concentration level in Hangzhou was closed to that in European schools, while PM2.5 concentration level was much higher. Comparing with other cities in China, classroom PM2.5 and CO2 concentration level in Hangzhou is better. The results highlighted that school location, design and routine management should be advanced consideration for good air quality in classroom.

Objective To investigate effects of Danhong on the serum levels of CD137, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and homocysteine (Hcy) in patients with non-ST elevation acute myocardial infarction complicating metabolic syndrome. Methods A total of 126 patients with non-ST elevation acute myocardial infarction complicating metabolic syndrome were enrolled and randomly divided into a conventional treatment group and a Danhong treatment group using a random-digit table, with 63 patients in each group. All patients underwent angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention. The patients in the Danhong treatment group treated with intravenous Danhong 20 ml on the basis of conventional treatment for 1 week. The serum levels of CD137, hs-CRP and Hcy were measured at hospital admission and 10 days after treatment. The severity of coronary artery disease was assessed by the Gensini-score. Results The levels of CD137, hs-CRP and Hcy in both groups after treatment were significantly lower than before treatment (conventional treatment group: t 12.393, 17.408 and 9.458; Danhong treatment group: t 16.110, 17.573 and 13.481; all P<0.01), and the Danhong treatment group were significantly decreased than the conventional treatment group (t 2.815, 3.224 and 3.157, all P<0.01). The serum levels of CD137 and hs-CRP before treatment were significantly correlated with Gensini scores in 126 patients (r 0.720 and 0.562,all P<0.01). Conclusions The serum levels of CD137 and hs-CRP are significantly correlated with the severity of coronary artery disease, intravenous Danhong may has protective effect for coronary artery disease via decreasing CD137 and hs-CRP.
