Background: and Purpose Collateral circulation is considered an important factor affecting the risk of stroke, but the factors that affect collateral circulation remain unclear. This study was performed to identify the factors associated with collateral circulation, especially blood lipids. Methods: The study involved patients who had undergone digital subtraction angiography and were confirmed as having severe unilateral stenosis or occlusion of the internal carotid artery (ICA). We classified the collateral circulation status of each patient as good (Grade 3 or 4) or poor (Grade 0, 1, or 2) according to the grading system of the American Society of Interventional and Therapeutic Neuroradiology/American Society of Interventional Radiology. We collected data on patients’ characteristics and identified the factors that affect collateral circulation. Results: This study included 212 patients. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration and a complete anterior half of the circle of Willis were independent protective factors for good collateral circulation, whereas elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] and serum creatinine concentrations were independent risk factors for good collateral circulation. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC) was 0.68 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.61–0.76) for HDL-C and 0.69 (95% CI, 0.62–0.76) for Lp(a). A binary logistic regression model analysis of the joint factor of HDL-C and Lp(a) yielded an AUC of 0.77 (95% CI, 0.71–0.84). Conclusions In patients with severe unilateral ICA stenosis or occlusion, the combination of HDL-C and Lp(a) is a useful predictor of collateral circulation.

BACKGROUND: Most Chinese migrants have been faced with obstacles to getting access to local public health services. Young migrants among internal migrants make a major contribution to the economy. However, the establishment of their health records has been ignored. This research was aimed at exploring the status and associated factors of the establishment of health records among young Chinese migrants. METHODS: Data were obtained from the 2017 China Migrants Dynamic Survey (CMDS). Chi-square test and binary logistic regression were performed to investigate the associated factors of the establishment of health records among young Chinese migrants. RESULTS: Approximately 30.2% of young migrants had their health records established in inflow communities. Urban residence, medical insurance (insured), and lower average monthly household income were attributed to the establishment of more health records. Young migrants who were in northeast China and across provinces and immigrated for working or engaging in trade were less likely to have health records established. Young migrants who participated in social activities and public affairs activities and took type of people in touch as natives in the inflow area showed a higher possibility of establishing health records. Meanwhile, receiving health education and hearing about national basic public health services (BPHSs) were beneficial for establishing the health records of more young migrants. CONCLUSION This study showed that the health records of young migrants had a relatively low establishment rate. Sociodemographic and migration characteristics, health status, public health services, and social integration factors were all related to the health record establishment of young Chinese migrants.

BACKGROUND: Limited published research has examined the relationships of negative life events and coping styles with sleep quality in Chinese junior high school students. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of poor sleep quality and to clarify the role of coping styles between negative life events and sleep quality. METHODS: A cross-sectional study of 3081 students was conducted in Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, Southeastern China. Adolescent Self-Rating Life Events Checklist, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire, and Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index were applied to assess negative life events, coping styles, and sleep quality, respectively. Descriptive analyses, independent-samples t tests, one-way analyses of variance, Pearson correlation analyses, and structural equation modeling (SEM) were applied to analyze the data. RESULTS: The prevalence of poor sleep quality was 26.7%. Negative life events (B = 0.038, P < 0.001) and negative coping style (B = 0.049, P < 0.001) demonstrated a positive association with poor sleep quality, while positive coping style indicated a negative association with poor sleep quality (B = -0.029, P < 0.001). Interactions of negative life events and coping styles with sleep quality were not found (all P > 0.05). The association between negative life events and sleep quality was mediated by negative coping styles. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicated that poor sleep quality was common in these Chinese adolescents. Negative life events and negative coping style were associated with an increased prevalence of poor sleep quality, while the positive coping style was related to a decreased prevalence of poor sleep quality. A negative coping style mediated the association between negative life events and sleep quality.

Objective:To systematically review the effect of Tongfu Xiefei method on prognosis and respiratory mechanics parameters in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods:The randomized controlled trials (RCT) of Tongfu Xiefei method for ARDS published on PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CNKI and Wanfang database from January 1st 2001 to June 30th 2019 were searched. Conventional treatment for ARDS that included mechanical ventilation, prone ventilation, anti-infection, organ function maintenance and nutritional therapy were used in the control group. While the Tongfu Xiefei method was applied in the experimental group based on the conventional treatment. The main outcome was in-hospital mortality, and the secondary outcomes included mechanic ventilation time, length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay and respiratory mechanics parameters. Two researchers independently searched the literature, collected data and assessed the risk of bias. The bias risk assessment was completed by RevMan 5.3 software. The Meta-analysis was completed by R software. The potential publication bias of main outcome was evaluation.Results:A total of 27 RCTs were included. There were 1 763 patients, including 899 in the experimental group and 864 in the control group. Meta-analysis showed that, compared with the control group, the in-hospital mortality of the experimental group significantly decreased [relative risk ( RR) = 0.46, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.36 to 0.59, P < 0.000 1], the mechanic ventilation time and the length of ICU stay were significantly shortened [mechanical ventilation time: standard mean difference ( SMD) = -1.92, 95% CI was -2.56 to -1.29, P < 0.000 1; length of ICU stay: SMD = -1.84, 95% CI was -2.49 to -1.18, P < 0.000 1], oxygenation index was significantly improved ( SMD = 2.26, 95% CI was 1.56 to 2.96, P < 0.000 1), airway peak pressure, airway platform pressure, mean airway pressure and airway resistance significantly decreased (airway peak pressure: SMD = -1.26, 95% CI was -2.35 to -0.18, P = 0.021 8; airway platform pressure: SMD = -0.61, 95% CI was -1.08 to -0.14, P = 0.010 7; mean airway pressure: SMD = - 1.67, 95% CI was - 2.93 to -0.42, P = 0.009 1; airway resistance: SMD = -0.88, 95% CI was -1.09 to -0.67, P < 0.000 1), while lung compliance increased ( SMD = 1.57, 95% CI was 0.78 to 2.36, P < 0.000 1). The results of publication bias assessment showed that there was no potential publication bias ( P = 0.499). Conclusion:Tongfu Xiefei method is capable of reducing the in-hospital mortality, shortening the mechanical ventilation time and the length of ICU stay, and improving respiratory mechanics parameters for patients with ARDS.

Objective To optimize the fermentation conditions for Enterococcus faecalis (E.faecalis) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S.cerevisiae) mixed culture.Methods The optimum fermentation conditions for E.faecalis and S.cerevisiae mixed culture were identified by investigating the influence of initial pH,inoculum size,and ventilation rate of the culture broth on mixed microbial growth.Results The optimal initial pH of mixed microbial culture was 7.0 and the inoculation amounts of E.faecalis and S.cerevisiae were 4％ and 10％ respectively,when fermented in 600-mL pilot fermentor (liquid volume 40％) at 30 ℃,with ventilation rate of 0.2 L/min,for 20 h.At the end of the fermentation,the E.faecalis and S.cerevisiae counts were approximately 3.8 × 108 CFU/mL and 2.4 × 108 CFU/mL,respectively.Ventilation for the amount difference of E.faecalis was no significant (P ＞ 0.05),and for the amount difference of S.cerevisiae was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The E.faecalis and S.cerevisiae counts increased by 32.2％ and 31.5％ respectively,when the optimized conditions of fermentation culture were used.In this study,high mixed microbial counts were obtained,thus providing a reference for the preparation of large-scale production of mixed microbes.

OBJECTIVE To explore potential proarrhythmic effect and underlying mechanism of azithromycin (AZM) and Shengmai injection (SM) used clinically.METHODS ① In vivo guinea pig ECG recordings were made to analyze effects of jugular intravenous(iv) injection of AZM [38.2 mg· kg-1,one time (clinically relevant dose,CRD)],or SM (4.6 mL· kg-1,one time CRD) or their combination.②In vitro ECG recordings were made to analyze effects of AZM,SM or AZM + SM on ECG in isolated hearts of guinea pigs.AZM [one,five and ten times (clinically relevant concentrations,CRC)] was perfused in this order:41.5 →207.5 → 415 mg· L-1 and SM (one,five and ten times CRC) in this order:5 →25 →50 mL· L-1.Also,AZM (41.5 mg· L-1,one time CRC) +SM (5 mL· L-1,one time CRC) was perfused to isolated hearts of guinea pigs.③ Enzymatically isolated cardiomyocytes from guinea pig left ventricles were perfused in this order:AZM 41.5 mg· L-1 →AZM 41.5 mg· L-1+SM 5 mL· L-1 for action potential,L-type Ca2+ and Na+ current recordings,respectively.RESULTS ① Neither AZM 38.2 mg· kg-1,nor SM 4.6 mL· kg-1 significantly changed the in vivo ECG.However,AZM 38.2 mg· kg-1 +SM 4.6 mL · kg-1 significantly reduced heart rate (P＜0.05) and prolonged the P-R (P＜0.05) and QRS (P＜0.05) intervals.②AZM 41.5,207.5 and 415 mg· L-1 reduced heart rate (P＜0.05) and prolonged the P-R (P＜0.05) and QRS (P＜0.05) intervals in a concentration-dependent manner.AZM 415 mg·L-1 also prolonged QTc (P＜0.05) interval.SM 5,25 and 50 mL· L-1 reduced heart rate (P＜0.05) and prolonged the P-R interval (P＜0.05) in a concentration-dependent manner.SM had no effect on QRS or QTc intervals.Washout partially recovered the above changes.Moreover,AZM 41.5 mg· L-1 + SM 5 mg·L-1 significantly reduced heart rate (P＜0.05) and prolonged the P-R (P＜0.05) and QRS intervals.③ AZM 41.5 mg·L-1 did not significantly change the action potential amplitude (APA),action potential durations at 50％ (APD50) and 90％ (APD90) repolarization levels,or L-type Ca2+ and Na+ currents.However,AZM+SM 5 mg· L-1 significantly reduced APA (P＜0.05),shortened APD50 (P＜0.05) and APD90 (P＜0.05) and inhibited the L-type Ca2+ (P＜0.05) and Na+ (P＜0.05) currents.CONCLUSION AZM and SM has potential prorrhythmic risks.The combined use might cause higher risk of arrhythmia.The underlying mechanism for proarrhythmia is mediated by inhibition of the L-type Ca2+ and Na+ currents.
