Objective To investigate the feasibility and early efficacy of transapical transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) combined with transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in patients with high-risk aortic valve lesions combined with severe mitral regurgitation. Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent "one-stop" transapical TAVR+TEER in our hospital from August 2022 to October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Five patients were collected, including 3 males and 2 females with a mean age of 66.6±1.8 years. Four patients had aortic valve insufficiency combined with mitral regurgitation and one had aortic valve stenosis and insufficiency combined with mitral regurgitation. All patients successfully completed transapical TAVR+TEER, and the immediate postoperative echocardiographic results revealed that none of them had more than mild perivalvular leakage and mitral regurgitation, and the prosthetic valves were in good position and function. At 1 week postoperatively, echocardiographic results showed 5 patients with no displacement of the prosthetic valve, detachment of the mitral clip, or damage to the leaflets. At 1 month postoperatively, cardiac function was improved to varying degrees in 4 patients, and 1 patient died of multiorgan failure. At 2 months postoperatively, 1 patient died of cerebrovascular accident, and at 3 months postoperatively the echocardiographic results of the remaining 3 patients revealed that there was no more than mild perivalvular leakage or mitral regurgitation, and the patients' postoperative cardiac function and daily life ability were significantly improved. Conclusion In high-risk aortic valve lesions combined with severe mitral regurgitation, "one-stop" transapical TAVR+TEER is feasible with favorable early efficacy and safety.

OBJECTIVE
To explore the pharmacodynamic related substances and mechanism of Weining San(WNS) against gastric ulcer(GU) according to fingerprint and network pharmacology.
METHODS
Twelve batches of WNS fingerprints were established by HPLC, and methodological investigation was carried out. Combined with reference substances, characteristic peaks were identified, pharmacodynamic related substances were screened, and network pharmacological analysis was carried out. Using TCMIP and Swiss Target Prediction database to retrieve component targets; Using OMIM, GeneCards and Drugbank databases to retrieve GU disease targets, taking the intersection targets of components and diseases, using String database to construct protein-protein interaction network diagram, and analyzing topological parameters; Using Cytoscape 3.8.2 software to construct "component-disease-target" network diagram; GO and KEGG enrichment analysis of intersection targets were carried out by Metascape website. Then the alcoholic GU mouse model was established by intragastric administration of absolute ethanol to verify the results of network pharmacology prediction. RESUITS The precision, stability and repeatability of HPLC fingerprint method were good. By comparison and comprehensive analysis of control substances, notoginsenoside R1, ginsenoside Rg1, militarine, ginsenoside Rb1, schisandrin, schisandrol B, deoxyschizandrin and schisantherin A were identified as pharmacodynamic related substances in WNS, which may play their role by regulating core targets such as AKT1, IL-6, STAT3, TNF, IL1B and key signal pathways such as PI3K-Akt and JAK-STAT. The gastric ulcer index, ulcer inhibition rate and HE staining showed that WNS could improve gastric mucosal injury in GU mice. The results of ELISA, WST-1 and TBA showed that WNS could decrease the levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β and MDA, and increase the levels of SOD and PGE2, suggesting that the anti-GU effect of WNS was related to the inhibition of inflammatory reaction and oxidative stress mechanism, which further verified the prediction of network pharmacology.
CONCLUSION
This study combines fingerprint analysis, network pharmacology, and animal experimental validation to explore the pharmacodynamic related substances and mechanisms of WNS anti-GU efficacy, providing reference for quality control and clinical research of WNS.

The surveillance data of new cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2021, in Tengzhou City, Shandong Province, were used to analyze the incidence rate of AMI and its change trend among residents. The age and gender standardized incidence rate was calculated based on the 7th National Population Census 2020. The Cochran-Armitage trend test was used to analyze the trend of onset time and age. From 2013 to 2021, the crude and standardized incidence rate of total AMI in Tengzhou City declined from 130.07/100 000 and 161.12/100 000 to 76.15/100 000 and 72.77/100 000 ( Z=-13.785 and -20.822, both P<0.001). The crude and standardized incidence rates of males were higher than those of females. In 2016, males aged 45-54 years old and females aged 35-64 years old increased by 33.33%, 103.65%, 106.30%, and 95.75% compared to 2015, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=6.512, 4.965, 25.115, and 46.004, all P<0.05). The incidence rate of AMI in men aged<35 and 35-44 years old had an upward trend. From 2013 to 2021, the incidence rate of AMI decreased by 55.15% in urban areas and 36.59% in rural areas ( Z=-8.529 and -11.235, both P<0.001).

Objective:To analyze the impact of hypertension prevention and control on the mortality rate of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in Tengzhou City, Shandong Province from 2013 to 2021.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. The surveillance data of AMI deaths from January 1, 2013 (the time when hypertension prevention and control began in Tengzhou) to December 31, 2021 were collected in the coronary heart disease information management system, the mortality rate of AMI and its change trend were analyzed, and the distribution differences among residents with different characteristics were analyzed. The registered population information was obtained from Tengzhou Public Security Bureau, and the age and gender standardized mortality rate was calculated based on the data of the 7th national population census in 2020. The t test was used to compare the differences in blood pressure and laboratory items, chi-square test was used to compare the differences in mortality rate, and Cochran-Armitage trend test was used to compare the time trend and age trend of mortality rate, so as to analyze the impact of hypertension prevention and control on the mortality rate of AMI. Results:The overall crude and standardized AMI mortality rates in Tengzhou decreased from 50.87/100 000 and 63.82/100 000 to 41.08/100 000 and 38.70/100 000 from 2013 to 2021, respectively ( Z=-5.741, -10.884, both P<0.001), and double peaks were formed in 2014 and 2017. The first peak of crude and standardized mortality rate was formed in 2015 for males, which was 25.12% and 17.60% higher than that in 2013; and the first peak was formed in 2014 for females, which was 29.56% and 24.38% higher than that in 2013 ( χ2=13.200, 9.065, 14.862, 12.123) (all P<0.05). The second peaks of crude and standardized mortality were formed in 2017, with an increase of 18.17% and 17.17% for males and 25.73% and 22.34% for females from 2016 ( χ2=8.266, 9.182, 14.066, 11.105), the standardized mortality rate was 15.18%-29.01% higher in males than that in females ( χ2=6.239-19.326) (all P<0.05). The mortality rate of AMI increased with age ( Z=35.485-51.308) ( P<0.001). Compared with 2013, the mortality rate in males aged 55 to 64 years in 2015 increased by 64.29% from that in 2013, and that of females in 2017 increased by 108.48% from that in 2015; and that in females aged 35 to 44 years in 2016 increased by 373.51% from that in 2015 ( χ2=10.751, 12.805, 4.799); in 2021, the age group of male and female≥65 years decreased by 43.51% and 41.28% when compared with that in 2013, respectively ( Z=-7.333, -7.465) (all P<0.05). The mortality rate of AMI in urban areas decreased by 76.93% in 2021 when compared with that in 2016, and in rural areas it decreased by 30.28% than that in 2017. Both regions showed a downward trend ( Z=-7.560, -2.398) (both P<0.05). Conclusions:The mortality rate of AMI in Tengzhou City, Shandong Province from 2013 to 2021 shows a decreasing trend, and prevention and control of hypertension may be one of the reasons. The standardized mortality rate of males is higher than that of females, and the mortality rate decline rate in rural areas is lower than that in urban areas. The primary and secondary prevention of AMI in such populations should be strengthened.

The 95% confidence interval ( CI) of the rate was calculated using the binomial exact method. The age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) was calculated based on 2020 National Population Census. The trends of mortality rate were analyzed using the Cochran-Armitage trend test. Results:During 2013 to 2021, there were 20 667 coronary heart disease deaths in Tengzhou city, with an average of 2 296 cases per year. The male-to-female ratio was 1.09∶1, and 80.98% (16 736/20 667) of the death cases were aged 65 years or older. The crude mortality rate and ASMR of coronary heart disease were 131.84/10 5 and 168.22/10 5 in 2013, respectively. The crude mortality rate increased by 13.67% from 2013 to 2021 ( P<0.001) with an average annual increase of 1.59%; while the ASMR decreased by 18.65% from 2013 to 2021 ( P<0.05) with an average annual decease of 2.34%. The crude mortality rate of coronary heart disease in men and women showed an upward trend, with the difference in the increase for women being statistically significant ( P<0.01); while the ASMR both in men and women showed a downward trend ( P<0.001). The crude death rates from 2013 to 2021 in age groups of 65 or older for men and women decreased by 22.40% and 19.73%, respectively (both P<0.001); while the crude death rate for age groups of 44 or younger in men showed an upward trend ( P<0.05). The crude death rate among urban residents decreased by 5.22% from 2013 to 2021 with an annual decrease of 0.67% ( P>0.05); while the crude death rate among rural residents increased by 19.29% with an annual increase of 2.18% ( P<0.001). The overall crude death rate among urban residents was higher than that among rural residents (all P<0.05). Conclusions:From 2013 to 2021, the crude mortality rate of coronary heart disease in Tengzhou city of Shandong province shows an increasing trend while the age-standardized mortality rate shows a decreasing trend. The crude mortality rate of coronary heart disease in people aged 65 and above shows a decreasing trend. In addition, the change trends are different between women and men, and between urban and rural areas.

Objective:To evaluate the specialty of the clinical features, treatment procedure, clinical outcome, and prognosis in the patients with "sandwich" atlantoaxial dislocation (AAD).Methods:From 2008 to 2018, 160 cases with "sandwich" AAD were retrospectively selected from the case series of AAD in Peking University Third Hospital. The case series had 80 males and 80 females. The mean age at the initial visit was 35.5±14.6 years (range, 5-77). The clinical courses, treatment methodology and prognosis were reviewed. And the surgical approach, posterior fixation segment and the recovery of neurological function were mainly summarized. The atlantodental interval (ADI), the distance by which the odontoid exceeded the Chamberlain line and the cervical-medullary angle were analyzed.Results:The most common symptoms included weakness or numbness of the limbs (67.5%, 108/160), unstable gait (30%, 48/160) and vertigo (20%, 32/160). Among all, 130 cases (81.3%, 130/160) had myelopathy, with the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores from 4 to 16 (mean JOA scores 13.5±2.5). Cranial neuropathy was involved in 20 cases (12.5%). Radiological findings showed brainstem and/or cervical-medullar in 130 cases (81.3%), syringomyelia in 37 cases (23.1%) and Chiari malformation in 30 cases (18.8%). Computed tomography angiography (CTA) was performed in 90 cases, which showed vertebral artery anomalies in 55 cases (61.0%) and excessive medialized internal carotid artery in 5 cases (5.6%). All cases had no spinal cord or vertebral artery injury. The surgery included posterior occipito-cervical fusion (reducible dislocation, 145 cases), and transoral release followed by posterior fusion (irreducible dislocation, 15 cases). Fifty-seven cases were treated using alternative fixation technique. The average follow-up time was 50.5±22.4 months (range, 24 to 120 months). All of 152 cases (95.0%) achieved solid atlantoaxial fusion; there was no obvious osseous fusion formation on postoperative images in 6 cases (3.8%), but no atlantoaxial instability was found on dynamic radiographs; screw loosening happened in 2 patients (1.2%). Nine patients (5.6%) suffered complications, including 4 cases with recurrent dislocation, 2 screw loosening, 2 cases with bulbar paralysis and 1 wound infection. The mean postoperative JOA was 15.1±1.8 (range, 5-17), and the mean neurological improvement rate was 42.9%±33.3% in the patients with myelopathy.Conclusion:"Sandwich" AAD, a subgroup of AAD, has unique clinical features: earlier onset age and more severe myelopathy. The incidence of bone and vascular malformation is higher. So alternative surgical plan and hybrid fixation should be prepared for this subgroup of AAD.

Schizophrenia is a kind of neurodevelopmental brain disease with genetic background.Cognitive impairment has always been concerned as the core symptom of schizophrenia, and genetic factors play an important role in the cognitive impairment process of schizophrenia.This paper intends to explore the relationship between various neurotransmitter systems and neurodevelopmental related genes and cognitive impairment in schizophrenia. With " schizophrenia" " cognitive" and " genetic" " dopamine" " glutamate" " serotonin" " norepinephrine" " acetylcholine" " neurodevelopmental" " genome-wide association studies" as key words, the author searched the English and Chinese literatures published from January 2001 to October 2019 in several databases, such as Pubmed, ScienceDirect, CNKI academic journal database, Wanfang academic journal database, and selected the literature that was in line with the review topic after a large number of readings.Meanwhile, the author applied the literature tracing method to search the references of the literature that had been reviewed. Finally, 29 related literatures were included, and it was found that cognitive impairment in schizophrenia is related to multiple neurotransmitter system genes and neurodevelopmental genes, and these genes have different mechanisms of action in the process of cognitive impairment. The occurrence and development of cognitive impairment in schizophrenia involve multiple gene effects. The genetic study of neurotransmitter system and neurodevelopmental level is helpful to explore the pathological mechanism of cognitive impairment in schizophrenia.Future research should focus on how the pathogenesis/candidate genes of schizophrenia affect the neurotransmitter system and neurodevelopmental circuits, and further elucidate the mechanism of genetic factors in the development of cognitive impairment in schizophrenia.
