Narrative is the cornerstone of interpersonal relationships and life safety. However, its important value in daily life, school education, health management, personal happiness, career development, and other aspects has been ignored. The narrative ecology of families, schools, hospitals, workplaces, and elderly care institutions is worrying, the narrative connection between parent-child and intergenerational is broken, the narrative nature of adolescents is ignored, the narrative demands of patients are neglected, narrative relationships in the workplace are indifferent, and the narrative capital of the elderly is idle. These issues have resulted in serious social problems, such as depression and suicide among adolescents, conflicts between doctors and patients, workplace and life burnout among middle-aged people, and the inability of the elderly to achieve healthy aging, which have become a “stumbling block” to the realization of holistic health. Advocating the construction of narrative ecology and interpersonal narrative connections is an important measure of achieving holistic health. Taking the “narrative concept” as the overall framework, and based on the research, education, and practice carried out by the Alliance of Narrative Medicine in Higher Education Institutions, this paper proposed that actively build China’s narrative system of life and health, to enable narrative play an active and dynamic role in the construction of narrative ecology in different spaces, such as the families, the schools, the hospitals, the workplaces, and the elderly care institutions, as well as practically improve the quality of life of the people.

Objective:The distribution characteristics of intrathecal drugs and the limitation of current catheterization techniques make traditional intrathecal analgesic treatment nearly useless for refractory craniofacial pain,such as trigemina neuralgia.This technical guideline aims to promote the widespread and standardize the application of intra-prepontine cisternal drug delivery via spinal puncture and catheterization. Methods:A modified Delphi approach was used to work for this guideline.On the issues related to the intra-prepontine cisternal targeted drug delivery technique,the working group consulted 10 experts from the field with 3 rounds of email feedback and 3 rounds of conference discussion. Results:For the efficacy and safety of the intra-prepontine cisternal targeted drug delivery technique,a consensus was formed on 7 topics(with an agreement rate of more than 80%),including the principles of the technique,indications and contraindications,patient preparation,surgical specifications for intra-prepontine cisternal catheter placement,analgesic dosage coordination,analgesic management,and prevention and treatment of complications. Conclusion:Utilizing the intra-prepontine cisternal drug infusion system to manage refractory craniofacial pain could provide advantages in terms of minimally invasive,secure,and effective treatment.This application can not only alleviate the suffering of individuals experiencing the prolonged pain but also support the maintenance of quality of life and dignity in their final moments,justifiing its widespread dissemination and standardized adoption in domestic and international professional fields.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of total alkaloids of Corydalis saxicola on a rat model of lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced depression, as well as the pharmacokinetic characteristics of 8 of its major components. MethodTwenty-four male SD rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, fluoxetine group(10 mg·kg-1) and total alkaloids of C. saxicola group(210 mg·kg-1), with 6 rats in each group. In addition to the normal group, the rats were injected intraperitoneally with LPS to establish the inflammation model of depression, and the drug administration was started 1 week after modeling, and the administration groups were gavaged according to the corresponding dose, and the normal and model groups were intragastric administration with equal volume of distilled water, and the administration was performed along with the modeling. After two weeks of continuous administration, the effect of total alkaloids of C. saxicola on the behavior of depressed rats were tested by sucrose preference, forced swimming and open field experiments, the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin(IL)-1β and IL-6 in serum of rats were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA), the histopathological changes of rat hippocampus were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining. After the last administration, blood was collected from orbit according to the set time, and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-QqQ-MS) was established to simultaneously detect the concentrations of dehydrocavidine, tetrahydropalmatine, coptisine, palmatine, jatrorrhizine, berberine, berberrubine and epiberberine in plasma, and drug-time curves were drawn. The pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed by DAS 2.0 software. ResultCompared with the normal group, the model group exhibited a decrease in sucrose preference rate, total distance traveled in the open field, as well as an increase in swimming immobility time and serum inflammatory factor expression(P<0.01). In contrast, compared with the model group, rats in each administration group showed an increase in sucrose preference rate and total distance traveled in the open field, a decrease in swimming immobility time, and a reduction in serum inflammatory factor expression(P<0.05, P<0.01). Additionally, HE staining results revealed that neurons in the hippocampus of rats from the model group were characterized by loss, disorganization and residual vacuoles, whereas those from the total alkaloids of C.saxicola group displayed an increase in number with orderly arrangement and clear cytoplasm. Pharmacokinetic results showed that the time to peak(tmax) and half-life(t1/2) of the 8 active ingredients were 0.19-2.06 h and 3.71-8.70 h after continuous administration of total alkaloids of C. saxicola. Among them, the area under the curve(AUC0-∞) of tetrahydropalmatine was the highest and the t1/2 was the shortest, and the AUC0-∞ of coptisine, palmatine, jatrorrhizine, berberine, berberrubine and epiberberine were low. The curves of dehydrocavidine, coptisine, palmatine, berberine and epiberberine showed obvious double peak phenomenon. ConclusionTotal alkaloids of C. saxicola can improve the depression-like behavior of rats, inhibit the expression of inflammatory factors in serum, improve the pathological injury of hippocampus, and has the antidepressant effect. Meanwhile, the effective site is absorbed quickly and eliminated slowly in the depressed model rats, and the efficacy is maintained for a long time.

Introduction::Observational studies have revealed an association between waist circumference (WC) and atrial fibrillation (AF). However, it is difficult to infer a causal relationship from observational studies because the observed associations could be confounded by unknown risk factors. Therefore, the causal role of WC in AF is unclear. This study was designed to investigate the causal association between WC and AF using a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.Methods::In our two-sample MR analysis, the genetic variation used as an instrumental variable for MR was acquired from a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of WC (42 single nucleotide polymorphisms with a genetic significance of P <5 × 10 –8). The data of WC (from the Genetic Investigation of ANthropometric Traits consortium, containing 232,101 participants) and the data of AF (from the European Bioinformatics Institute database, containing 55,114 AF cases and 482,295 controls) were used to assess the causal role of WC on AF. Three different approaches (inverse variance weighted [IVW], MR–Egger, and weighted median regression) were used to ensure that our results more reliable. Results::All three MR analyses provided evidence of a positive causal association between high WC and AF. High WC was suggested to increase the risk of AF based on the IVW method (odds ratio [OR] = 1.43, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.30–1.58, P = 2.51 × 10 -13). The results of MR–Egger and weighted median regression exhibited similar trends (MR–Egger OR = 1.40 [95% CI, 1.08–1.81], P = 1.61 × 10 -2; weighted median OR = 1.39 [95% CI, 1.21–1.61], P = 1.62 × 10 -6). MR–Egger intercepts and funnel plots showed no directional pleiotropic effects between high WC and AF. Conclusions::Our findings suggest that greater WC is associated with an increased risk of AF. Taking measures to reduce WC may help prevent the occurrence of AF.
