Cardiovascular diseases （CVD），a group of common diseases in clinical practice，are witnessing a steady rise in both incidence and mortality rates，posing a challenge to public health. Gualou Xiebai Banxiatang，originating from Synopsis of the Golden Chamber （《金匮要略》），was initially used to treat severe cases of chest impediment. The formula consists of Trichosanthis Fructus，Allii Macrostemonis Bulbus，Pinelliae Rhizoma，and Baijiu. It has a wide range of clinical applications，with therapeutic effects including moving Qi to relieve depression，activating Yang to dissipate mass，and expelling phlegm to alleviate chest congestion. In recent years，clinical research has confirmed that Gualou Xiebai Banxiatang，with or without modification，used alone or in combination with Western medicine，has definite effects in the treatment of CVD such as hyperlipidemia，coronary atherosclerotic heart disease，hypertension，heart failure，and arrhythmia. It can alleviate disease symptoms and reduce the risk of re-hospitalization. Basic research indicates that the mechanisms of Gualou Xiebai Banxiatang include improving endothelial functions，exhibiting anti-inflammatory properties，countering oxidative stress，preventing apoptosis，inhibiting ventricular remodeling，regulating mitochondrial functions，improving hemorheology，and modulating autophagy and neurotransmitters. This article reviews relevant articles in recent years with focuses on the compatibility，clinical application，and mechanism of Gualou Xiebai Banxiatang. This review is expected to provide a theoretical basis for the mechanism research and clinical application of this formula in treating CVD and to offer ideas and reference for in-depth research.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence and associated factors of depressive symptoms among middle and high school students in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide scientific basis for the implementation of depressive intervention. Methods: Based on the health status and associated factors of middle and high school students in the project "Monitoring of Common Diseases and Health Influencing Factors of Students" during 2018 to 2021, a total of 73 309 students including middle school, ordinary high school and vocational high school surveyed in 11 cities of Zhejiang Province were selected by multi stage stratified cluster random sampling method. From 2018 to 2021, there were 6 008, 21 917, 23 712 and 21 672 students, respectively. The Chi square test and Logistic regression model were used to analyze the influencing factors of depressive symptoms in middle and high school students. Results: From 2018 to 2021, depressive symptoms detection rate of middle school students was 14.8%, with higher rate in girls (17.1%) than in boys (12.7%), higher rate in high school (17.1% in ordinary high school, 17.6% in vocational high school) than middle school (12.5%)( χ 2=278.77, 327.22, P <0.05). Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in depressive symptoms detection rate among middle school students with different years (2018: 16.7%，2019: 17.9% , 2020: 13.1%, 2021: 13.0%), residence (yes: 16.3%, no:13.5%), body mass index classification (not overweight or obesity: 14.8%, overweight: 14.2%, Obesity: 15.7%), weekly exercise days (0-2 d: 17.1%, 3-5 d: 12.5%, 6-7 d: 13.1%) and bullying (yes: 35.5%, no: 10.7%) ( χ 2=293.40, 118.35, 7.83, 287.24, 4 978.84, P <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that female students, ordinary high schools, vocational high schools, obesity, school bullying were positively correlated with depression ( OR =1.65, 1.70, 1.60, 1.12, 5.21), exercise 3 to 5 days per week, exercise 6 to 7 days per week were negatively correlated with depression ( OR=0.77, 0.81, P <0.01). Conclusions Depressive symptoms among middle and high school students in Zhejiang Province are prominent. Strengthening mental health education for students and providing attention and support from families, schools, and society are essential steps to reduce the occurrence of depressive symptoms among these students.

ObjectiveTo assess the direct economic burden and influencing factors of road traffic injuries in Shanghai， providing a basis for future prevention of road traffic injuries. MethodsInformation of inpatient cases caused by road traffic injuries was collected from 22 pilot hospitals in Shanghai that participated in the registration and reporting system of injury hospitalizations from 2017 to 2020. The main content of the collected information included basic demographic information， total hospitalization costs for injuries， mode of transportation， cause of injury， nature of injury， location of injury， and hospital level. Univariate analysis was used to analyze the average hospitalization costs and length of hospital stay between different years. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to analyze the median hospitalization costs and the median length of hospital stay between different years， and the median hospitalization costs of different groups. A full subset regression model in multivariate regression was used to explore the main influencing factors of hospitalization costs. ResultsA total of 4 655 patients were hospitalized with road traffic injuries， including 2 675 males （57.47%） and 1 980 females （42.53%）. The average age was （53.84±15.37） years old， with a minimum age of 4 years old and a maximum age of 97 years old. 1 907 patients （40.97%） had non-motor vehicle accidents， and 2 748 patients （59.03%） had motor vehicle accidents. The average hospitalization cost is 23 245.71 yuan， with a median of 9 793.94 yuan. The average length of stay was 13.61 days， with a median stay of 10.00 days. The main factors affecting hospitalization costs included year， nature of injury， location of injury， length of hospital stay， and hospital level. ConclusionRoad traffic injuries seriously affect the health of middle-aged and young people， especially vulnerable road user such as pedestrians and cyclists， causing serious injury and an increase of direct economic burden year by year. Therefore， road traffic injury prevention projects should be actively carried out to reduce the occurrence of injuries.

Objective To explore the value of three-dimensional energy Doppler ultrasound parameters combined with placental growth factor (PLGF) in predicting early-onset fetal growth restriction (FGR). Methods Eighty pregnant women with early-onset FGR were selected as FGR group, and another 50 healthy pregnant women with prenatal examination were selected as control group. Three-dimensional energy Doppler ultrasonography was performed for all subjects at 11 to 13 weeks plus 6 days of gestation, and placental volume (PV), vascularization index (VI), flow index (FI) and vascularization-flow index (VFI) were collected. Serum PLGF level was measured in all subjects at 14 to 16 weeks plus 6 days of gestation. Results The PV, VI, FI, VFI and serum PLGF level in the FGR group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that low PV, VI, FI and VFI as well as serum PLGF level were risk factors for early-onset FGR (P < 0.05). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that PV, VI, VFI and serum PLGF had certain predictive value for early-onset FGR, with areas under the curve of 0.723 (95%CI, 0.629 to 0.817), 0.776 (95%CI, 0.693 to 0.860), 0.746 (95%CI, 0.653 to 0.839) and 0.799 (95%CI, 0.713 to 0.884) respectively. The predictive value of FI for early-onset FGR was moderate, with an area under the curve of 0.625 (95%CI, 0.524 to 0.725). Analysis showed that the combination of PLGF and VI as well as PLGF and VFI had good predictive values for early-onset FGR, the sensitivity, specificity and Youden index of PLGF combined with VI were 86.25%, 76.00% and 0.623 respectively, while those of PLGF combined with VFI were 81.25%, 80.00% and 0.613 respectively. Conclusion The combination of three-dimensional energy Doppler ultrasound parameters and PLGF has certain predictive value for early-onset FGR, and can be used for clinical screening of high-risk populations with early-onset FGR.

Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a 6-month Ba Duan Jin exercise program in improving the balance of community-dwelling older adults.Methods:A two arms, parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted in 1 028 community residents aged 60-80 years in 40 communities in 5 provinces of China. Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test.Results:A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95% CI: 2.23-3.88) points ( P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95% CI: 4.03-5.37) points ( P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement ( P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions:This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.

Objective We investigated the effects of ICAM5 in the hippocampus on the alcohol drinking preference of mice,and the potential mechanisms.Methods An alcohol two-bottle choice model was developed in 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice,which were randomly divided to two groups:water group and alcohol group.The protein expression of ICAM5 in the hippocampus,amygdala,and medial prefrontal cortex was detected.An ICAM5-overexpressing adeno-associated virus was constructed and injected into the hippocampus by stereotaxic method.The expression level of ICAM5 protein in the hippocampus was detected by immunofluorescence and Western blot.We then detected the alcohol preference and locomotor activity of mice with a conditioned place preference(CPP)experiment,open field test,and loss-of-righting reflex test.Western blot analysis was used to identify the neuron F-actin/G-actin ratio.Using Golgi staining,the morphology of dendritic spines was identified.Results The expression of ICAM5 in the hippocampus of alcohol two-bottle choice model mice in the alcohol group was considerably lower than that of the water group(P＜0.001).The specific expression of ICAM5 in the hippocampus of mice was observed by fluorescence microscopy.In the open field experiment,the staying time and moving distance of the AAV-ICAM5 group were significantly increased compared with those of the control group(P＜0.01).In the CPP experiment,the residence time of AAV-ICAM5 mice in the alcohol-paired compartment was significantly lower than that of control mice(P＜0.001).In the loss-of-righting reflex experiment,overexpression of ICAM5 significantly reduced sedation latency(P＜0.01),but significantly shortened the duration of sedation(P＜0.001).Compared with AAV-mCherry+Water group,the ratio of F-actin/G-actin in the hippocampus was significantly increased after drinking(P＜0.01),but after ICAM5 overexpression,their F-actin/G-actin ratio was significantly decreased(P＜0.001).Compared with AAV-mCherry+Water group,the density of dendritic spines in the hippocampal CAI region was increased(P＜0.001),but the density of dendritic spines in the AAV-ICAM5+Alcohol group was significantly decreased(P＜0.01).Conclusions ICAM5 modulated the expression of cytoskeleton proteins to change the structural plasticity of dendritic spines,which contributed to alcohol-drinking and locomotor behavioral changes in mice.

Objective To explore the psychological causes in stroke patients by comparing the global and local estimation methods of structural equation model with the survey data of reported outcomes.Methods 475 stroke patients were randomly investigated with the Stroke(patient reported outcome,PRO)scale.The actual data were analyzed with two methods,and the sensitivity of different random effects was analyzed.Results In the process of dimension reduction,the loss information of data was less than 5%.Sensitivity analysis shows that there are no random effects of categorical variables in this study,and there is a certain difference between the results of global and local estimation with structural equation model,and the standardized path coefficients reflected by the latter were slightly greater than the former.Based on the actual data of this study,it was found that social communication can reduce depression and avoidance,and verbal communication can alleviate anxiety to some extent.Conclusion The data involving latent variables and random effects were effectively analyzed by the traditional structural model combined with local estimation method.The causes of psychological problems in stroke patients are complex.
