OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of Tongxinluo capsules on the pharmacokinetics of rivaroxaban in rats. METHODS Rats were randomly divided into rivaroxaban alone group （2.70 mg/kg）， low-dose Tongxinluo capsules combined with rivaroxaban group （Tongxinluo capsules 0.28 g/kg+rivaroxaban 2.70 mg/kg）， and high-dose Tongxinluo capsules combined with rivaroxaban group （Tongxinluo capsules 0.84 g/kg+rivaroxaban 2.70 mg/kg）， with five rats in each group. Following seven consecutive days of gavage with normal saline or the corresponding doses of Tongxinluo capsules， the rats were subjected to a final gavage administration of rivaroxaban. Blood samples were collected at 0 h prior to the final administration and at 0.16， 0.33， 0.50， 0.75， 1， 1.5， 2， 4， 8， 12 and 24 h post-final administration. The plasma concentration of rivaroxaban in rats was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The pharmacokinetic parameters [peak concentration （cmax）， half-life （t1/2）， area under the drug concentration time curve （AUC）， mean residence time （MRT）， clearance （CL）， apparent volume of distribution （Vd） and peak time （tmax）] of each group were calculated using a non-compartmental model of MonolixSuite 2023R1 pharmacokinetic software. RESULTS Compared with rivaroxaban alone group， AUC₀₋ₜ and AUC0-∞ of rivaroxaban in rats were increased significantly in high-dose Tongxinluo capsules+rivaroxaban group （P＜0.05）， while CL was decreased significantly （P＜0.05）； t1/2 and MRT were shortened， tmax was extended， cmax was increased， while Vd was decreased， but there was no statistical significance （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Rivaroxaban combined with Tongxinluo capsules significantly increases the plasma exposure of rivaroxaban in rats. Potential drug-drug interactions should be considered in clinical practice based on the co-administration conditions.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the mechanism of Qingda Granules (QDG) for alleviating brain damage in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). METHODS: Twelve 5-week-old SHRs were randomized into SHR control group and SHR+QDG group treated with QDG by gavage at the daily dose of 0.9 g/kg for 12 weeks. The control rats, along with 6 age-matched WKY rats, were treated with saline only. Blood pressure changes of the rats were monitored, and pathologies and neuronal apoptosis in the cerebral cortex were examined with HE staining and TUNEL staining. Cerebral cortical expressions of miR-124 and STAT3 mRNA were detected using RT-qPCR, and the protein expressions of NeuN, STAT3, Bcl-2, Bax, and cleaved caspase-3 were detected with immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. In a HT22 cell model of oxygen and glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R), the effects of QDG on cell viability and apoptosis, expressions of miR-124 and STAT3 mRNA, and protein expressions of STAT3, Bcl-2, Bax, and cleaved caspase-3 were evaluated using CCK8 assay, Hoechst 33342 staining, RT-qPCR, and Western blotting. RESULTS: Compared with WKY rats, SHRs had significantly elevated systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure with significantly increased neuronal apoptosis in the cerebral cortex, reduced expressions of NeuN, miR-124 and Bcl-2, and enhanced expressions of STAT3, Bax and cleaved caspase-3 (P<0.05). All these changes in the SHRs were significantly ameliorated by treatment with QDG (P<0.05). In the HT22 cell model, QDG treatment obviously reduced OGD/R-induced cell apoptosis, increased the expressions of miR-124 and Bcl-2, and suppressed the elevation of protein expressions of STAT3, Bax and cleaved caspase-3. CONCLUSIONS QDG inhibits cerebral cortical neuronal apoptosis and thereby attenuates brain damage in SHR rats by modulating the miR-124/STAT3 signaling axis.

During the Jin dynasty,the two major academic schools of Hejian and Yishui emerged in northern China.At this time,the Song dynasty migrated southward,accompanied by the southward movement of the Han ethnic culture and economic center.The dissemination of medicine also showed a trend of spreading from the north to the south.The late Yuan dynasty was an important period for the academic dissemination of the Yishui school to the south.On the one hand,ZHU Danxi,GE Yinglei,HUA Shou,and other clinicians studied the academic works of LI Dongyuan,comprehended his academic ideas,and further disseminated them through their disciples and Confucian scholars.On the other hand,academic works such as Jisheng Bacui and Weisheng Baojian carrying the study of Yishui were published in the south,playing an essential role in disseminating Yishui's study in the south.The dissemination of Yishui's learning to the south adopted a combination of book learning and mentorship,effectively breaking down the academic barriers between the Hejian and Yishui schools.The network formed by the interaction between medical scholars and Confucian scholars was an essential medium for academic dissemination.The study of Yishui was transmitted to the south and integrated with the original spleen and stomach theory in the south,promoting the further development of traditional Chinese medicine spleen and stomach theory.

Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are common and serious occupational health problems faced by primary and secondary school teachers around the world. The high prevalence of WMSD brings great harm to the physical health, psychology, daily work and life of primary and secondary school teachers. This project systematically reviewed the basic situation of WMSDs in primary and secondary school teachers at home and abroad, summarized the prevalence rate, involved body parts and main hazards of WMSDs in primary and secondary school teachers, and concluded the personal factors, occupational factors and social psychological factors leading to WMSDs. Based on this, a set of basic prevention and control measures of WMSDs were proposed from five perspectives: organizational training, organizational management, ergonomic design, individual behavior and social psychology, in order to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of WMSDs.

OBJECTIVE To improve the quality evaluation method of Platycodonis Radix, to study the differences in the quality of three-years-old Platycodonis Radix under different harvesting periods, and to determine the optimal harvesting period of Platycodonis Radix. METHODS The leachate, ash, moisture, refractive index and the content of six saponins were used as the quality evaluation indexes. The differences between the herbs of Platycodonis Radix at different harvesting periods were characterized with the help of mathematical and statistical methods. And link the entropy weight method, gray correlation analysis and TOPSIS method were combined to obtain the statistical analysis of the relevant indexes and the quality ranking information of the herbs in different harvesting periods. RESULTS There were significant differences between the quality evaluation indexes of three-years-old Platycodonis Radix at different harvesting periods. The added multi-indicator testing had improved the quality evaluation system of Platycodonis Radix and enhanced the "Drug properties-Effectiveness" linkage of the herbs. And the results of the comprehensive quality evaluation model showed that the herbs harvested around October 21 (Frost’s Descent) were ranked best in terms of comprehensive index. CONCLUSION In order to ensure the quality of Platycodonis Radix, the best harvesting period for three-years-old Platycodonis Radix is determined around the "Frost’s Descent" season, taking into account the characteristics of the herbs' appearance and the material basis of herbs.
