ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of salidroside against nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its mechanism of action. MethodsA total of 24 male KM mice were randomly divided into normal group, HFD group, HFD+blank control group, and HFD+salidroside group, with 6 mice in each group. The mice in the normal group were given normal diet, and those in the other groups were given high-fat diet. After 14 weeks of modeling, the mice were given salidroside 100 mg/kg/day by gavage, and related samples were collected at the end of week 22. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure the serum levels of related biochemical parameters including alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C); HE staining and NAFLD activity score (NAS) were used to observe the liver histopathology of mice; Western blot was used to measure the changes in the expression of NAMPT, Sirt1, AMPKα, and SREBP1 in liver tissue. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the normal group, the HFD group had obvious steatosis and extensive large lipid droplets in liver tissue, with significant increases in NAS score (P<0.01) and the content of AST, ALT, TG, TC, and LDL-C in peripheral blood (all P<0.05) and a significant reduction in the content of HDL-C (P<0.05), as well as significant reductions in the expression levels of NAMPT, AMPKα, and Sirt1 in liver tissue (all P<0.05) and a significant increase in the expression level of SERBP1 (P<0.01). Compared with the HFD group and the HFD+blank control group, the HFD+salidroside group had reductions in the distribution of vacuolar lipid droplets and intralobular inflammation in liver tissue, alleviation of the ballooning degeneration of hepatocytes, significant reductions in NAS score (P<0.01) and the content of AST, ALT, TG, and LDL-C in peripheral blood (all P<0.05), and a significant increase in the content of HDL-C (P<0.05), as well as significant increases in the expression levels of NAMPT, AMPKα, and Sirt1 in liver tissue (all P<0.05) and a significant reduction in the expression level of SERBP1 (P<0.01). ConclusionSalidroside can significantly improve the pathological state of mice with NAFLD induced by high-fat diet and exert a protective effect against NAFLD by increasing the expression of NAMPT, Sirt1, and AMPKα and reducing the expression of SERBP1.

Objective:
To understand the current situation and association of eHealth literacy with physical health of college students, so as to provide a basis for physical health improvement.
Methods:
By using stratified random clustering sampling method, a total of 1 446 students from first to third year of college in four colleges and universities in Dongguan were selected for the eHealth literacy questionnaire and physical fitness test.
Results:
The average eHealth literacy score of college students was(29.72±6.19), with a pass rate of 48.8%. The scores for each dimension were application ability (18.57±4.10), judgment ability (7.48± 1.67 ), and decision making ability (3.67±0.91). The differences in eHealth literacy scores among college students with different birthplaces, family upbringing and frequency of participation in outdoor sports were statistically significant( t/F=-2.44, 3.51, 10.19 , P <0.05). The mean score of physical fitness was (73.20±7.86), with a failure rate of 5.0%, a passing rate of 77.0%, a success rate of 17.1%, and an excellent rate of 0.8%. The differences in scores of physical fitness test varied significantly by gender, grade, and frequency of participation in outdoor sports( Z=-2.27, 8.75, 39.90, P <0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that eHealth literacy and the three dimensions of application ability, judgment ability, and decision making ability were positively correlated with total physical fitness test scores( r=0.17, 0.18, 0.16, 0.19, P <0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that after adjusted for gender, grade, and frequency of participation in outdoor sports, eHealth literacy application ability, judgment ability, and decision making ability could significantly and positively affect physical fitness test score( β=0.13, 0.12, 0.12, P < 0.05 ).
Conclusion
Physical fitness of college students is associated with eHealth literacy,promotion of eHealth literacy among college students help improve physical health status.

Objective:To explore the advantages of the modified right renal artery dissection in the laparoscopic resection of right renal carcinoma combined with venous tumor thrombus.Methods:From January 2016 to June 2016, a retrospective analysis of the three-dimensional CT images of renal blood vessels in 70 patients with full abdominal CT plain scan plus enhanced scan from Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University was performed. On the sagittal plane of the right margin of the aorta, the right renal artery was detected to locate above the left renal vein in 14 cases (20.0%), posterior in 33 cases(47.1%), and below in 23 cases(32.9%). In addition, on the sagittal plane of the left margin of the inferior vena cava, the right renal artery was detected to locate above the left renal vein in 1 case (1.4%), posterior in 26 cases(37.1%), and below in 43 cases (61.4%). Based on this finding, 11 patients with right kidney cancer combined with venous tumor thrombus, admitted to Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University from June 2016 to December 2019, were retrospectively analyzed. The average age of the patients was(58.7±6.8)(45-68) years old. The CT three-dimensional reconstruction of the renal blood vessels was shown on the sagittal plane of the right margin of the aorta before the operation, and the right renal artery was detected to locate above the left renal vein in 0 cases, posterior in 7 cases, and lower in 4 cases. On the sagittal plane of the left margin of the inferior vena cava, the right renal artery was detected to locate above the left renal vein in 0 case, behind in 3 cases, and below in 8 cases. Renal tumors are located in the upper middle in 5 cases and in the lower middle in 6 cases. The maximum diameter of the tumor to be resected was 8.5-12.0 cm, with an average of (10.0±1.4) cm. Among them, 4 cases had Mayo grade 0 tumor thrombus, 4 cases were grade Ⅰ tumor thrombus, and 3 cases were grade Ⅱ tumor thrombus. All 11 cases underwent transperitoneal laparoscopic surgery. During the operation, it was found that the relationship between the right renal artery and the left renal vein was consistent with the preoperative three-dimensional reconstruction of renal blood vessels. The modified right renal artery dissection method was used, that is, the right renal artery was detected and ligated between the inferior vena cava and the aorta, using the left renal vein as a mark, and then the right kidneys and vein tumor thrombi were removed.Results:All of the 11 operations in this group were completed successfully. The operation time was (110.5±29.8)(70-150) min, the average time of right renal artery dissection was(28.5±5.8)(16- 33) min, and the amount of intraoperative bleeding was(112.7±83.5)(20-300) ml. No serious complications occurred during the operation in 11 cases. Postoperative pathological examination showed 10 cases of clear cell carcinoma and 1 case of papillary cell carcinoma. The postoperative hospital stay was 4.2 (4.18±0.75) days. There were no complications such as secondary bleeding, infection, lower extremity venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. All 11 patients were followed up for 3 to 42 months, with an average of(19.5±12.1) months. One patient died 23 months after the operation, and no tumor recurrence or metastasis occurred in the remaining patients.Conclusions:When the right renal artery runs to the left edge of the inferior vena cava, it is mostly behind the left renal vein. In the laparoscopic resection of right renal cancer with venous tumor thrombus, the modified right renal artery dissection method can quickly find and dissociate the right renal artery. The operation time is short, the intraoperative bleeding is less, and no postoperative complications occur.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of cone-beam CT (CBCT) in evaluating the thickness of cortical bone in jaw bone.Methods:Sixty patients [twenty-three for males and forty-seven for females, at an average age of (43.8±1.7) years] from Center of Stomatology, The First Affiliated Hospital of USTC & Anhui Provincial Hospital with 63 operational regions were included in the present study. Totally 63 bone sections from these areas were all selected at last. Case Viewer and oral dynamic system were used for the measurements in sections and CBCT graphs of the cortical bone thicknesses at alveolar ridges. Paired samples t test was performed to compare the difference between CBCT measurement and Case Viewer measurement. Results:The cortical bone thicknesses measured by Case Viewer were (1.20±0.75), (0.68±0.46) and (1.48±0.77) mm in the posterior, maxillary posterior and mandibular posterior areas, respectively. The cortical bone thicknesses measured by dynamic navigation software were (1.14±0.77), (0.64±0.24) and (1.41±0.83) mm in the posterior, maxillary posterior and mandibular posterior areas, respectively. There were no significant differences between either the two methods or the different areas ( P>0.05). Conclusions:CBCT would be a useful equipment for the analysis of cortical bone thickness with a reliable and convincible accuracy.

Objective:To analyze the changes on the rates of prevalence, awareness and treatment of hypertension as well as the differences of the disease by demographic and economic factors, among adult farmers in nine provinces of China.Methods:Adult farmers, (including fishermen and hunters) with completed data on demographics, socio-economic characteristics, disease histories and physical measurements were selected from the 1991-2015 China Health and Nutrition Survey. Hypertension was defined based on the Chinese guidelines. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influence of demographic and economic factors on the rates of prevalence, awareness and treatment of hypertension among those adult farmers in 2015.Results:A total of 18 236 participants were included. From 1991 to 2015, rates of prevalence, awareness and treatment of hypertension among the adult farmers in nine provinces all significantly increased ( P<0.05). Results from the multivariate analysis showed that farmers aged ≥45 years were 98 % more likely to suffer from hypertension than those aged 18-44 years. Farmers who were overweight or obese were 1.58 times and 5.21 times more likely to suffer from hypertension than those in the control group (BMI<24.0 kg/m 2), respectively. The rates on awareness of hypertension among farmers with junior high school education ( OR=0.23) or above ( OR=0.12) or with junior high school education ( OR=0.30) were both lower than those with primary school education or below. Rates on the awareness and treatment of hypertension in obese farmers were 5.77 times and 7.52 times of those in the control group. Conclusions:The rates of prevalence of hypertension showed increasing trends during 1991-2015, with a slower increase in the rates of awareness and treatment in the farmers. Age ≥45 year-olds, and being obese were the risk factors for farmers to have hypertension, which suggested the above population should be focused on hypertension prevention strategy and practice.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of Wuzhi soft capsule and imatinib mesylate tablet on the pharmacokinetics of imatinib in rats. METHODS: The rats were divided into single administration group and consecutive administration group. The single administration group was divided into imatinib group one (ig administration of blank soybean oil+imatinib suspension 10 mg/kg), low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose of Wuzhi soft capsule+imatinib group (ig administration of Wuzhi soft capsule solution 134, 268, 536 mg/kg+imatinib suspension 10 mg/kg), with 6 rats in each group. Each group was given imatinib suspension intragastrically 30 min after intragastric administration of blank soybean oil/Wuzhi soft capsule solution. The consecutive administration group was divided into imatinib group two (ig administration of blank soybean oil+imatinib suspension 10 mg/kg), Wuzhi soft capsule low-dose+imatinib group (ig administration of Wuzhi soft capsule solution 134 mg/kg+imatinib suspension 10 mg/kg), with 6 rats in each group. Each group was given blank soybean oil/Wuzhi soft capsule solution intragastrically for consecutive 14 d, once a day; 30 min after last administration, ig imatinib suspension. About 100 μL blood was collected before imatinib, 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 24 and 36 h after medication. The plasma concentration of imatinib was determined by HPLC-MS/MS. The pharmacokinetic parameters were fitted by using DAS 2.0 software. RESULTS: After single administration, compared with imatinib group one, cmax, t1/2, AUC0-36 h and AUMC0-36 h in low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose of Wuzhi soft capsule+imatinib group were increased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). After consecutive administration, compared with imatinib group two, cmax, t1/2 and AUMC0-36 h of imatinib+low-dose of Wuzhi soft capsule group were increased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Single administration and consecutive administration of Wuzhi soft capsule influence the pharmacokinetics of imatinib, increase plasma concentration of imatinib and prolong half-time.
