Abstract
To understand the relationship between cardiovascular disease (CVD) and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), the present review aims to describe the burden and influencing factors of CVD, epidemiological characteristics and burden of ACEs, current research on the relationship between ACEs and CVD, and the mechanism of ACEs leading to CVD. It is proposed that further assessment of the relationship is warranted through identifying blood biomarkers, conducting prospective cohort studies and intervention studies. Such efforts would provide valuable scientific insights for primary prevention strategies for cardiovascular disease.

Objective:
To investigate the levels of knowledge and skills in infectious diseases among school doctors and health teachers in Beijing s primary and secondary schools in 2023, and analyze the influencing factors, so as to provide a reference basis for enhancing the professional competencies of school doctors and health teachers.
Methods:
From October to November 2023, a census method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey among all school doctors and health teachers in 16 districts of Beijing. Chi-square tests and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used perform statistical analysis.
Results:
The awareness rate of infectious diseaserelated knowledge among school doctors and health teachers in primary and secondary schools in Beijing in 2023 ranged from 34.44 % to 98.57%, while the behavior formation rate ranged from 65.90% to 98.64%. The proportions of those with literacy in infectious disease knowledge and behavior among school doctors and health teachers were 82.76% and 85.70%, respectively. Multivariate Logistics regression analysis showed that being a full-time employee, having a bachelor s degree or above, and holding a senior professional title were positively correlated with having literacy in infectious disease knowledge ( OR =1.76, 2.57, 1.42 , P <0.01). Compared to medical professionals, those in education and other professions were negatively correlated with having literacy in infectious disease knowledge ( OR =0.37, 0.55, P <0.01). Being a full-time employee, being female, and age were positively correlated with having literacy in infectious disease behavior ( OR =1.66, 2.18, 1.02, P <0.01).
Conclusions
The level of health literacy for infectious diseases among school doctors in Beijing primary and secondary schools is relatively high. Targeted training on key professional knowledge and skills should be prioritized for individuals with deficiencies in infectious disease prevention and control.

Journal of Stroke 2025;27(1):75-84
Background:
and Purpose Limited evidence exists on the effectiveness of endovascular treatment (EVT) for acute posterior circulation tandem lesion (PCTL). This study aimed to explore the role of extracranial vertebral artery (VA) stenting in patients with PCTL stroke undergoing EVT.
Methods:
Individual patient data were pooled from the BASILAR (EVT for Acute Basilar Artery Occlusion Study) and PERSIST (Posterior Circulation Ischemic Stroke) registries. Patients with PCTLs who underwent EVT were included in the present cohort and divided into the stenting and nonstenting groups based on the placement of extracranial VA stents. The primary efficacy outcome was the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores at 90 days and 1 year. Safety outcomes included 24-hour symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and all-cause mortality at 90 days and 1 year post-surgery.
Results:
A combined dataset of 1,320 patients with posterior circulation artery occlusion, including 263 (19.9%) with tandem lesions, of whom 217 (median age, 65 years; 82.9% male) met the inclusion criteria for the analysis. The stenting group had 84 (38.7%) patients, while the non-stenting group had 133 (61.3%). After adjustment for the potential confounders, extracranial VA stenting was associated with favorable shifts in mRS scores at both 90 days (adjusted common odds ratio [OR], 2.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.23–4.28; P<0.01) and 1 year (adjusted OR [aOR], 2.04; 95% CI [1.05–3.97]; P=0.04), along with lower rate of mortality at both 90 days (aOR, 0.45; 95% CI [0.21–0.93]; P=0.01) and 1 year (aOR, 0.36; 95% CI [0.16–0.79]; P=0.01), with no significant difference in sICH incidence (aOR, 0.35; 95% CI [0.06–1.98]; P=0.24).
Conclusion
Extracranial VA stenting during EVT may improve functional outcomes and reduce mortality in patients with PCTL strokes.

OBJECTIVE To study the efficacy of Tianjiang xueshuantong pills in the treatment of coronary heart disease. METHODS In accordance with the common pathogenesis of coronary heart disease, acute myocardial ischemia model, hyperlipidemia model, blood stasis model, and carotid artery thrombosis model were established using Wistar rats or SD rats as the experimental subjects. The effects of Tianjiang xueshuantong pills administered at high, medium, and low doses (0.6, 1.2 and 2.4 g/kg) on hemodynamic parameters and myocardial enzyme markers [lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase-MB (CK- MB)], oxidative stress factors [superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH)], inflammatory cytokines [tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1β, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1)], myocardial infarction percentage, serum lipid indexes [total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL)], platelet aggregation function 话:022-84845240。E-mail:jiangx@tjipr.com [maximum aggregation rate (MAR)], and thrombus formation indexes [thrombosis time, thrombus mass, thrombus protein content, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), and tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA)] were evaluated in the rat models. RESULTS In myocardial ischemia tests, Tianjiang xueshuantong pills significantly reduced the percentage of myocardial infarction and the levels of CK-MB, LDH, MDA, GSH, IL-6, TNF-α, IL- 1β, and MCP-1 in serum (P<0.05 or P<0.01). In hyperlipidemia tests, high dose of Tianjiang xueshuantong pills significantly reduced the serum levels of TC, LDL and significantly increased the level of HDL in rats after 2 weeks and 4 weeks of administration. In blood stasis tests, different doses of Tianjiang xueshuantong pills significantly reduced MAR of rats (P<0.01). In artery thrombosis tests, high dose of Tianjiang xueshuantong pills significantly prolonged the time of thrombosis formation (P< 0.01), significantly reduced the weight and protein content of thrombus and the level of PAI-1 in serum (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Tianjiang xueshuantong pills exert therapeutic effects on coronary heart disease through multi-dimensional synergistic actions, including anti-myocardial ischemia, lipid-lowering, and anti-thrombotic effects.

It is believed that psoriasis with anxiety and depression presents the pathogenesis of "depression-blood-spirit", with qi depression as the initiating factor, and that the disease mechanism is understood from three aspects, including "qi depression transforming into fire, blood stasis disturbing the spirit", "depressed fire consuming yin, causing blood dryness and spirit agitation", "qi stagnation leading to blood stasis, resulting in obstructed channels and spirit depression". The treatment proposes three methods, firstly, cooling blood and resolving depression, secondly, nourishing blood and soothing depression, and thirdly, activating blood and regulating depression, which applies prescriptions as modified Liangxue Huoxue Decoction (凉血活血汤) combined with Zhiqiao (Poncirus trifoliata), Foshou (Citrus medica), and Lianqiaoxin (Forsythia suspensa) for cooling blood and resolving depression; modified Yangxue Jiedu Decoction (养血解毒汤) combined with Baishao (Paeonia lactiflora Pall), Zhenzhumu (Margaritifera Concha), and calcined Muli (Ostreidae) for nourishing blood and soothing depression; and modified Huoxue Sanyu Decoction (活血散瘀汤) combined with Yujin (Curcuma aromatica) and Hehuanpi (Albiziae Cortex) for activating blood and regulating depression. These three methods integrate the "depression-blood-spirit" pathogenesis to achieve harmony of body and spirit by clearing blood heat, nourishing yin and blood, and removing blood stasis, complemented with medicinals that soothing the liver, calming the spirit, and regulating depression.

Ulcerative colitis (UC), a chronic, non-specific inflammatory bowel disease with typical symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and bloody stools, demonstrates a high relapse rate and difficulty in curing. Sishenwan, first recorded in Internal Medicine Abstract (Nei Ke Zhai Yao), are a classic prescription for treating diarrhea caused by deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. The core therapeutic principle of Sishenwan is warming and tonifying the spleen and kidney, and astringing the intestine and stopping diarrhea. In recent years, Sishenwan have demonstrated distinct advantages in the clinical treatment of UC. The pathogenesis of UC involves multiple factors, including immune dysregulation and gut microbiota imbalance. Although Western medicine is effective in the short term, its side effects, high relapse rate, and resistance associated with long-term use pose substantial challenges. Sishenwan have shown excellent clinical outcomes in the treatment of UC due to deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. Modern clinical studies indicate that Sishenwan, used alone or in combination with Western medicine or other Chinese medicine compound prescriptions, significantly improve the clinical efficacy in treating UC due to deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. Sishenwan effectively alleviate core symptoms such as mucus, pus, and blood in stools, and persistent abdominal pain, reduce Mayo scores and the relapse rate, and improve patients' quality of life. Research on the material basis reveals that Sishenwan contain multiple active ingredients such as psoralen, isopsoralen, and evodiamine. Mechanism studies indicate that Sishenwan inhibit the inflammatory cascade reactions by regulating the signal network through multiple targets. Sishenwan regulate cellular immunity and restore intestinal immune homeostasis. At the microecological level, Sishenwan promote the intestinal barrier repair through the "microbiota-metabolism-immunity" axis. The current research still needs to be deepened in aspects such as the mining of specific biomarkers for syndromes and the exploration of the collaborative mechanism of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. In the future, a full-chain system covering syndrome differentiation, targeting, and monitoring needs to be constructed for promoting the paradigm transformation of Sishenwan into precision drugs. This review systematically explains the treatment mechanism of Sishenwan regarding the combination of disease and syndrome and its multi-target regulatory characteristics, providing a theoretical basis and transformation direction for the treatment of UC with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

The tumor microenvironment includes blood vessels, lymph, nerves, non-malignant cells, and their metabolites at and near the tumor lesion site, which interact with cancer cells and promote cancer progression. Rapid proliferation of cancer cells increases oxygen consumption, or abnormalities in the structure and function of blood vessels in solid tumors lead to a decrease in oxygen supply, forming a hypoxia microenvironment. The existence of a hypoxia microenvironment is a typical pathophysiological feature of locally advanced solid tumors, widely present in various types of human malignant tumors. Hypoxia microenvironment is a sign of tumor microenvironment and an important and complex system in the breast tumor microenvironment. Its formation and development are closely related to the growth of breast cancer, occupying an important position in the research and treatment of breast cancer. With its advantages of multiple pathways and multiple targets, the effective monomer and compound of traditional Chinese medicine can better regulate the hypoxia microenvironment of breast cancer, inhibit the proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of breast cancer cells in the hypoxia environment, induce apoptosis, reverse their drug resistance, intervene in the metabolic reprogramming of breast cancer cells in the hypoxia environment, and inhibit their angiogenesis, thereby improving the quality of life of patients to a certain extent and prolonging the survival cycle of patients. This paper first summarized and discussed the effects of hypoxia microenvironment on proliferation, invasion, metastasis, drug resistance, immune function, metabolic reprogramming, non-coding RNA, iron death, and autophagy of breast cancer cells, which affected the occurrence and development of breast cancer, and it elaborated the mechanism behind it. Then, the paper elucidated the regulatory effect and mechanism of targeting the hypoxia microenvironment based on the two modes of effective monomer and compound of traditional Chinese medicine, so as to analyze and extract the deficiencies and directions of traditional Chinese medicine in regulating the hypoxia microenvironment and provide a theoretical reference for the effective treatment of breast cancer.
