Objective:To analyze the prevalence of chronic diseases, the level of chronic disease prevention and control literacy and its influencing factors among middle-aged and elderly residents in Wenzhou from 2020 to 2023.Methods:Based on a cross-sectional research design, 19 528 usual residents aged 45-69 were retrospectively selected with a multi-stage stratified random sampling method from the health literacy monitoring survey in Wenzhou from 2020 to 2023. The χ2 tests and trend χ2 tests were employed to analyze chronic disease prevalence rates and health literacy possession rates across different population subgroups. Binary logistic regression models were used to identify determinants of chronic disease prevention health literacy among middle-aged and elderly residents in Wenzhou. The results were standardized using data from Wenzhou′s Seventh National Population Census. Results:The numbers of middle-aged and elderly respondents was 5 528, 4 822, 4 575 and 4 603 from 2020 to 2023, respectively, and the prevalence of self-rated chronic diseases was 39.56%, 37.33%, 41.29% and 39.00%, respectively (the standardized rate was 33.49%, 33.58%, 36.43% and 35.34%, respectively) in the each year, and the rates of chronic disease prevention and control literacy was 24.76%, 27.98%, 24.44% and 28.13%, respectively (the standardized rate was 27.95%, 30.11%, 27.57%, 29.78%, respectively). The rates of chronic disease prevention and control literacy was on an upward trend in middle-aged and elderly respondents in Wenzhou from 2020 to 2023 ( χ2trend=5.997, P=0.014). From 2020 to 2023, chronic disease prevention health literacy showed a positive educational gradient, with significantly higher levels observed among more educated populations (both P<0.05). Except for 2020, the residents with household income≥30 000 yuan had a higher chronic disease prevention and control literacy than those with household income less than 30 000 yuan (both P<0.05); in 2021 and 2022, the chronic disease prevention and control literacy in the people of 45-59 years was higher than that in the individuals of 60-69 years (both P<0.05); in 2020 and 2022, the rural residents had a higher chronic disease prevention and control literacy than the urban residents, and the rates of chronic disease prevention and control literacy of employees or retirees in government institutions/doctors/teachers were higher than that in the peasants (both P<0.05); in 2023, the chronic disease prevention and control literacy of the smokers was lower than that in the non-smokers ( P=0.014). Conclusions:The prevalence of chronic diseases among the middle-aged and elderly residents in Wenzhou is relatively low, people with chronic diseases, especially those with multiple chronic diseases, have a low level of chronic disease prevention and control literacy. To prevent and control chronic diseases among them, interventions should be differentiated by the chronic disease status, occupation and household income.

Objective:To explore the impact of the interaction between alcohol consumption and overweight/obesity on the risk of hypertension.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study, and convenient sampling was used to enroll physical examination participants aged 18-60 years from the Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Southwest Medical University, the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University and Luzhou People′s Hospital from June to November in 2020. All the participants were given questionnaire survey, physical examination and biochemical tests. A total of 5 000 questionnaires were distributed in the study, and 4 878 questionnaires were collected, of which 4 397 (90.14%) were valid. According to the diagnostic criteria for hypertension, the study participants were divided into hypertension group (1 128 cases) and non-hypertension group (3 269 cases), and t-test and chi-square test were used to compare the differences in gender, age, and other data between the two groups; and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the association of alcohol consumption, overweight/obesity with the risk of hypertension and the interaction between alcohol consumption and overweight/obesity on the risk of hypertension, and relative excess risk of interaction, attributable proportion of interaction and the synergy index were used to evaluate the impact of the interaction between alcohol consumption and overweight/obesity on the risk of hypertension. Results:Among the 4 397 individuals included in the analysis, 3 116 were male and 1 281 were female, with a mean age of (42.42±8.83) years. The detection rate of hypertension was 25.7% (1 128/4 397). The risk of hypertension in overweight/obese individuals was 2.566 times ( OR=2.566, 95% CI: 2.167-3.038) higher than that of non-overweight/obese individuals, and the risk of hypertension in alcohol consumption individuals was 1.486 times ( OR=1.486, 95% CI: 1.250-1.766) higher than that of non-drinkers. The risk of hypertension in drinking+non-overweight/obesity group, non-drinking+overweight/obesity group, and drinking+overweight/obesity group was 1.468 times ( OR=1.468, 95% CI: 1.112-1.936), 2.538 times ( OR=2.538, 95% CI: 1.968-3.272), and 3.796 times ( OR=3.796, 95% CI: 2.963-4.863) higher than that of non-drinking+non-overweight/obesity group, respectively (all P<0.05). Alcohol consumption and overweight/obesity had an additive interaction effect on the risk of hypertension, and the relative excess risk of interaction, attributable proportion of interaction and the synergy index was 0.791 (95% CI: 0.158-1.424), 0.208 (95% CI: 0.049-0.368), 1.394 (95% CI: 1.030-1.888), respectively. There was no significant multiplicative interaction between alcohol consumption and overweight/obesity on the risk of hypertension ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Alcohol consumption and overweight/obesity are both associated higher risk of hypertension. In addition, there is an additive interaction between alcohol consumption and overweight/obesity on the risk of hypertension.

Objective This study investigated the protective effects of Corni Fructus ethanol extract on β-amyloid protein 25-35 (Aβ25-35)-induced Alzheimer's disease (AD) mice by regulating histone lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) / postsynaptic density protein 95 (PSD95) on synapses and neuroinflammation. Methods Specifically, according to the body weight, 40 C57BL/6N mice were randomized into four groups: the sham operation group, the model group, the low-dose (0.1mg/g) and the high-dose (0.3 mg/g) Corni Fructus ethanol extract groups. Aβ25-35 was injected into the hippocampus of mice in three groups except for the sham operation group to established AD model. All mice were orally administered with either Corni Fructus ethanol extract or vehicle by gavage for 7 days before molding and continued 5 days after surgery for a total of 60 days. Morris water maze, Y maze and open field tests were performed to evaluate the recognition memory and space exploration ability of mice. The expression of LSD1, PSD95, synaptophysin (SYN), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and H3K9me2 level were measured by Western blotting. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (CHIP) combined with qPCR was used to detect H3K9me2 modification of PSD95 promoter region and mRNA levels of PSD95. The correlation between the expression of H3K9me2 and PSD95 and the expression of IBA1 in the hippocampus were detected by immunofluorescence assay.Results The result showed that Corni Fructus ethanol extract significantly reversed Aβ25-35-induced learning and memory impairment in AD mice. Compared with the model group, Corni Fructus ethanol extract demonstrated shorter escape latency, increased number and time of autonomous activities and the rate of autonomous alternation. Moreover, it increased the expression of LSD1 in hippocampus of AD mice(P<0.05), and reduced H3K9me2 modification level in the promoter region of PSD95 gene, and then promoted the mRNA transcription and protein expression of PSD95. Immunofluorescence staining indicated the reduction of H3K9me2 modification level in hippocampus was accompanied by the enhancement of PSD95 expression. Corni Fructus ethanol extract could also inhibit the activation of microglia and reduce the expression of proinflammatory factors IL-1β and TNF-α.Conclusion Corni Fructus ethanol extract may regulate PSD95 gene transcription by up-regulating the expression of LSD1 and reducing the H3K9me2 modification level in its promoter region, thereby increasing the expression of PSD95, a key protein in synaptic plasticity regulation, which alleviate neuroinflammatory response, improve learning and memory dysfunction in AD model mice, and thus play a protective role in Aβ25-35-induced nerve damage.

Based on the theory of the uterus is an extraordinary fu （腑） organ， it is believed that the core pathogenesis of precocious puberty in girls is the dysfunction of the uterus in storing and draining， while the basis of the disease is the delicate and vulnerable zang fu （脏腑） organs； the imbalance of qi and blood in the Chong and Ren mai （冲任） is the key link of the pathogenesis， and five zang （脏） organs dysharmony is responsible for the prolongation of the disease. For treatment， it is advocated to conform to the physiological characteristics that zang fu organs are delicate and fragile in girls， focus on regulating the uterus， and take into account the harmonization of the zang fu organs； the method of consolidating and nourishing yin is suggested as the basic treatment method， and self-made Xingzaoshu Formula （性早熟方） is commonly used. Considering that the uterus of girls is delicate and vulnerable， neutral medicinals are mainly used， and drastic supplementation and strong attack are avoided； pulse administration of Chinese herbal medicine is advocated. Since the condition of precocious puberty is often prolonged， Chinese herbal medicine together with medicinal diet is often used in the later stage of treatment to harmonize the zang fu organs， and self-made medicinal diet Xingzaoshu Soup （性早熟煲） is often used.
