Objective To explore the impact of C1q/tumour necrosis factor-related protein 6(CTRP6)on doxorubicin(DOX)-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress injury of cardiomyocytes,along with its associated mechanism of action.Methods The H9C2 car-diomyocyte injury model was established by dividing the subjects into different groups.These groups included the control group(NS group),the DOX(1μmol/L)group,and the DOX(1μmol/L)group supplemented with CTRP6 at concentration gradients of 0.5 μg/ml,1μg/ml,3μg/ml,and 5μg/ml,respectively.After 24hours of culture,the survival rate of the cardiomyocytes was measured,the results showed that the highest increase in cardiomyocyte survival rate was observed at a CTRP6 concentration of 3 μg/ml,which was selected as the optimal concentration.Subsequently,the experimental groups of H9C2 cardiomyocytes consisted of the control group(NS group),the CTRP6 group,the DOX(1μmol/L)group,and the DOX(1μmol/L)group supplemented with CTRP6(3μg/ml)group.The impact of DOX stimulation on the transcriptional and translational levels of CTRP6 was assessed using fluorescence real-time quantitative polymer-ase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)and Western blot assay.Apoptosis levels were measured using Tunel assay,while enzyme-linked im-munosorbent assay(ELISA)kits were was used to detect the activity of cellular total glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)and superoxide dismutase(SOD),as well as the levels of malondialdehyde(MDA).Western blot assay was used to detect the any alterations in the lev-els of AdipoR1 protein and the protein expression of the protein kinase B/glycogen synthase kinase-3 β(Akt/GSK-3 β)signaling path-way.Results Compared with the control group(NS group),the expression levels of CTRP6 protein and mRNA were significantly de-creased in the DOX group(46.26％and 67.74％reduction,respectively,P＜0.05).In contrast,compared with DOX group,the DOX+CTRP6group showed a significant increase in CTRP6 protein expression levels(P＜0.05).Among the different concentrations of CTRP6 added to the DOX+CTRP6group,the survival rate of cardiomyocytes in DOX+3μg/ml CTRP6 treatment group was significantly increased by 26.48％(P＜0.05).Tunel staining revealed a decrease in apoptosis and an upregulation of Bcl-2 expression.In addi-tion,GSH-Px and SOD activities increased by 20.49％and 36.89％respectively,while MDA levels were significantly inhibited(de-creased by 47.09％,P＜0.05).The levels of AdipoR1 protein was significantly increased(P＜0.05).Furthermore,there was a signifi-cant elevation observed in the phosphorylation levels of the Akt/GSK-3β signaling pathway proteins.Conclusion CTRP6 ameliorates DOX-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress injury in cardiomyocytes,possibly through the protective effect of the Akt/GSK-3β signa-ling pathway.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical efficacy of Huanglian Jiedutang as an adjunctive treatment for acute cerebral infarction complicated with gastric motility disorder. MethodSixty patients with acute cerebral infarction complicated with gastric motility disorder with fire toxin syndrome were randomly divided into a western medicine control group （control group） and a traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） combined treatment group （observation group）， with 30 cases in each group. The control group received basic treatment for cerebral infarction and relevant western medical symptomatic treatment based on the patients' gastrointestinal symptoms. The observation group received Huanglian Jiedutang in addition to the treatment provided to the control group. The treatment course was 7 days. Neurological deficit scores and gastrointestinal dysfunction scores were assessed in both groups before treatment and on the 4^th and 7^th days of treatment. Gastrointestinal electrographic parameters， serum citrulline （CIT）， and motilin （MTL） levels were measured in both groups before treatment and on the 7^th day of treatment. Clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups. ResultCompared with the baseline in both groups， the neurological deficit scores and gastrointestinal dysfunction scores were significantly reduced on the 4th and 7^th days of treatment （P<0.05）. The reductions in these scores were more significant on the 7^th day compared with those on the 4^th day of treatment （P<0.05）. On the 4^th and 7^th days of treatment， the observation group showed a significantly greater reduction in neurological deficit scores and gastrointestinal dysfunction scores compared with the control group （P<0.05）. On the 7th day of treatment， compared with the baseline， both groups showed a significant increase in gastric antral and gastric body electric wave amplitudes as well as serum CIT and MTL levels （P<0.05）， and there were no statistically significant differences in the frequency of gastric antral and gastric body electric waves. On the 7th day of treatment， compared with the control group， the observation group had a significant increase in gastric antral and gastric body electric wave amplitudes as well as serum CIT and MTL levels （P<0.05）， and there were no statistically significant differences in the frequency of gastric antral and gastric body electric waves. After 7 days of treatment， the total effective rate in the observation group was 90.00% （27/30）， higher than 76.67% （23/30） in the control group， but the difference was not statistically significant. ConclusionAdjunctive treatment with Huanglian Jiedutang can effectively improve the symptoms of neurological function impairment and gastrointestinal dysfunction in patients with acute cerebral infarction complicated with gastric motility disorder， increase gastric antral and gastric body electric wave amplitudes， improve gastric motility disorder， and increase serum CIT and MTL levels， thereby improving the imbalanced secretion function of the gastrointestinal tract.

Background::Given that seizures may be triggered by vaccination, this study aimed to evaluate the risk and correlative factors of seizures in patients with epilepsy (PWE) after being vaccinated against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).Methods::This study retrospectively enrolled PWE who were vaccinated against COVID-19 in the epilepsy centers of 11 hospitals in China. We divided the PWE into two groups as follows: (1) patients who developed seizures within 14 days of vaccination were assigned to the SAV (with seizures after vaccination) group; (2) patients who were seizure-free within 14 days of vaccination were assigned to the SFAV (seizure-free after vaccination) group. To identify potential risk factors for seizure reccurence, the binary logistic regression analysis was performed. Besides, 67 PWE who had not been vaccinated were also included for elucidating the effects of vaccination on seizures recurrence, and binary logistic regression analysis was performed to determine whether vaccination would affect the recurrence rate of PWE who had drug reduction or withdrawal.Results::The study included a total of 407 patients; of which, 48 (11.8%) developed seizures within 14 days after vaccination (SAV group), whereas 359 (88.2%) remained seizure-free (SFAV group). The binary logistic regression analysis revealed that duration of seizure freedom ( P < 0.001) and withdrawal from anti-seizure medications (ASMs) or reduction in their dosage during the peri-vaccination period were significantly associated with the recurrence of seizures (odds ratio= 7.384, 95% confidence interval = 1.732–31.488, P = 0.007). In addition, 32 of 33 patients (97.0%) who were seizure-free for more than three months before vaccination and had a normal electroencephalogram before vaccination did not have any seizures within 14 days of vaccination. A total of 92 (22.6%) patients experienced non-epileptic adverse reactions after vaccination. Binary logistic regression analysis results showed that vaccine did not significantly affect the recurrence rate of PWE who had the behavior of ASMs dose reduction or withdrawal ( P = 0.143). Conclusions::PWE need protection from the COVID-19 vaccine. PWE who are seizure-free for >3 months before vaccination should be vaccinated. Whether the remaining PWE should be vaccinated depends on the local prevalence of COVID-19. Finally, PWE should avoid discontinuing ASMs or reducing their dosage during the peri-vaccination period.

ObjectiveTo establish the quality standard of Liangditang benchmark samples. MethodUltra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry （UPLC-QTOF-MS） was used to qualitatively analyze the chemical composition of Liangditang on the basis of molecular and fragment ion peak information with cracking law. The mobile phase was methanol （A）-0.05% phosphate aqueous solution （B） for gradient elution （0-10 min， 5%-23.5%A； 10-20 min， 23.5%A； 20-58 min， 23.5%-63%A； 58-60 min， 63%-90%A）， the flow rate was 0.8 mL·min^-1， and the detection wavelength was 254 nm. Electrospray ionization was employed under positive ion mode， the detection range was m/z 100-1 700. Key quality attributes and sources were determined by comparing with single medicine and reference substances. Through mass transfer analysis of multiple batches from decoction pieces to benchmark samples， high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） for determining the contents of index components and HPLC detection of characteristic maps were established. Through the determination of 15 batches of benchmark samples， the content range of the index components and the common peaks of the characteristic map were determined. Thin layer chromatography （TLC） was applied to the identification of 5 medicines in the formula. Moisture and dry extract yield of the benchmark samples were determined by drying method. ResultA total of 27 compounds were inferred from the benchmark samples of Liangditang， among which 9 compounds were confirmed by comparison with the control， including catalpol， harpagide， gallic acid， albiflorin， paeoniflorin， verbascoside， angoroside C， cinnamic acid and harpagoside. A method for determining the characteristic maps of the benchmark samples were established and 13 peaks were assigned， and the characteristic peaks were mainly derived from wine-processed products of Rehmanniae Radix， Scrophulariae Radix and wine-processed products of Paeoniae Radix Alba. The similarity between the characteristic map of 15 batches of benchmark samples and the control characteristic map was >0.9. Methods for the determination of paeoniflorin， harpagoside， L-hydroxyproline and glycine were established， and the contents of these four components in 15 batches of benchmark samples were within ±30% of the corresponding mean value， and the transfer rate of decoction pieces to the benchmark samples was stable and controllable. TLC was established to identify 5 prescription drugs （except Ejiao） with two kinds of test solutions， and the results showed that the method had good specificity. The average dry extract yield was 48.06%， and the average moisture was 5.58%， which were within the range of ±10% and ±30% of their mean values， respectively. ConclusionThe quality standard of Liangditang benchmark samples was as follows：the similarity between the benchmark samples and the control characteristic map is >0.9， the contents of paeoniflorin， harpagoside， L-hydroxyproline and glycine are 217-403， 24-46， 634-1 178， 1 253-2 328 mg per dose， the dry extract yield is 43.0%-53.0%， the moisture is 4.0%-7.0%， under the set detection conditions， the benchmark samples have corresponding characteristic spots by comparing with the control herbs of 5 medicines. This quality standard is stable and reliable， which fills the gap in the quality control of Liangditang， and can provide a reference for the establishment of the quality standard of Liangditang granules.

【Objective】 To understand the structural characteristics of lapsed apheresis donors in our blood center and provide guidance for further improving recruitment and retention strategies by retrospectively analyzing the characteristics of lapsed apheresis donors in our center in recent years. 【Methods】 The apheresis donation and lapsed apheresis donors in Zhejiang Blood Center from 2016 to 2020 were statistically analyzed, and the general information of lapsed donors, including gender, blood type, age, education level and occupation composition, were compared and analyzed. The lapse of novel and long-term donors with different frequency were retrospectively analyzed. The SPSS 19.0 statistical software package was used for data analysis. 【Results】 In 2020, the total lapse of apheresis donors decreased by 16.6% as compared with 2016(P<0.05). The lapse rate of donors with blood groups A, B, O and AB was 1∶1∶1∶1, higher in female donors(59.0%) than males(50.0%), and dominated by age group of 18-35(66.3%). With the increase of age, the lapse rate decreased. Donors lapsed were mainly with college or above educational background(60.8%), with high proportion in students and the staff. In 2020, the lapse of novel apheresis donors decreased by 34.1% as compared with 2016, but the average lapse rate of novel apheresis donors was still as high as 70.5%. The average lapse rate of blood donors with different frequency was 52.5%, and the lapse rate decreased significantly with the increase of apheresis donation frequency. The average lapse rate of novel blood donors with whole blood donation experience was lower than those without (56.1% vs 82.9%). 【Conclusion】 Multiple measures for recruitment and retention have effectively reduced the lapse of apheresis donors. However, apheresis donors who are 18-35 years old, with college degree or above, students and staff were the main groups from lapsing. In addition, low-frequency and novel apheresis donors without whole blood donation experience were more likely to be lapsing. Targeted and personalized blood donation services should be further provided, and the management of " full cycle of blood donation" should be strengthened to reduce the lapsing, so as to retain more blood donors.
