OBJECTIVE To conduct a reevaluation of the systematic review (SR)/meta-analysis on the use of Xianling gubao capsules (XLGBC) for knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and provide evidence-based support for the clinical use of the drugs. METHODS Computerized searches including CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, China Biomedical Literature Database, the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were conducted to collect systematic reviews (SR) or meta-analyses of XLGBC for the treatment of KOA from the inception to May 31st, 2024. The report quality, methodological quality, risk of bias and evidence quality were assessed using the PRISMA 2020 statement, AMSTAR 2 scale, ROBIS tool and GRADE tool, respectively. A comprehensive quality analysis of the quantitative results from the SR/meta-analysis was also performed. RESULTS A total of five SR/meta-analyses were included. The evaluation results based on the PRISMA 2020 statement showed that one study report was relatively complete (21 points), while four studies had deficiencies (18-20 points). The assessment using the AMSTAR 2 scale indicated that the methodological quality of all five studies was rated as very low. According to the ROBIS tool evaluation, the risk of comprehensive bias in all five studies was classified as high. GRADE tool evaluation revealed that among 49 outcome indicators, 5 (10.2%) were rated as moderate-quality evidence (10.2%), 12 as low-quality evidence (24.5%), and 32 as very low-quality evidence (65.3%). The results of comprehensive quality analysis showed that the clinical efficacy, visual analogue scale score, pain relief time, comprehensive indexes of knee joint function, the levels of inflammatory factors and the incidence of adverse events in patients with XLGBC combined with conventional treatment were significantly better than conventional treatment alone (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Compared with conventional treatment, XLGBC in combination with conventional treatment for KOA may have some efficacy and safety advantages. However, due to the low quality of evidence for the outcome indicators included in the studies, the conclusions should be interpreted with caution.

Objective:
To explore the association between peer victimization and psychotic like experiences (PLEs) among junior high school students, so as to provide a scientific basis for preventing adolescent PLEs.
Methods:
In January 2024, a method of combining convenient sampling with cluster sampling was used to survey 2 760 students from two ordinary junior high schools in southern Anhui Province (Susong Country,Anqing City). The Community Assessment of Psychic Experiences (CAPE) and the Adolescent Peer Bullying Scale were employed to assess PLEs with different symptoms and peer victimization (verbal, physical, relational, and cyberbullying). Multivariate Logistic regression models analyzed the associations of different types peer victimization and PLEs with different symptoms.
Results:
The prevalence of PLEs was 17.5%, with delusional (15.4%) and hallucinatory (7.4%) symptoms being most common. Peer victimization was reported by 51.3% of students (49.6% victims, 19.5% perpetrators), with verbal victimization being most frequent (42.4% victims, 15.5% perpetrators) and cyberbullying least frequent (6.0% victims, 1.9 % perpetrators). Compared to students without bullying,students exposed to bullying showed significantly higher rates of delusional ( χ 2=29.09-127.22), hallucinatory ( χ 2=27.23-72.29), and overall PLEs ( χ 2=34.32-127.25) (all P <0.01). After adjusting for relevant confounding factors,the multiple Logistic regression model revealed verbal victimization increased risks of delusions ( OR=1.59, 95%CI =1.22-2.09), hallucinations ( OR=1.94, 95%CI =1.33-2.84), and overall PLEs ( OR=1.62, 95%CI = 1.26- 2.09); relational victimization was associated with delusions ( OR=1.83, 95%CI =1.40-2.39) and PLEs ( OR=1.65, 95% CI = 1.28-2.13); physical victimization correlated with hallucinations ( OR=1.64, 95%CI =1.12-2.40) and PLEs ( OR=1.41, 95%CI =1.06-1.87) (all P <0.05).
Conclusion
Specific types of peer victimization are differentially associated with PLEs, with relational victimization demonstrating the strongest association.

ObjectiveTo analyse the clinical characteristics of different traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes in patients with heart failure based on information from electronic medical record. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted to collect clinical data of all inpatients with heart failure in the Department of Cardiology, Affiliated Hospital of Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2020. A database of clinical TCM data was established to explore the characteristics of clinical data of basic information, syndromes and syndrome element types, and biochemical indexes. The distribution of TCM syndromes and syndrome elements in heart failure patients were also analysed, and the basic information and biochemical indexes of the patients with top 7 different TCM syndrome types were compared. ResultsA total of 1676 inpatients with heart fai-lure were included. The top 7 TCM syndromes of heart failure were syndrome of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis (477 cases, 28.46%), syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis (439 cases, 26.19%), syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis with water retention (274 cases, 16.35%), syndrome of yang deficiency with water retention (145 cases, 8.65%), syndrome of qi and yin deficiency (104 cases, 6.21%), syndrome of qi and yin deficiency with blood stasis (80 cases, 4.77%), syndrome of heart yang deficiency (59 cases, 3.52%). Among the 1676 patients, 6 syndrome elements accounted for more than 5%. Blood stasis accounted for the highest proportion of TCM syndrome element type (1292 cases, 77.09%), followed by qi deficiency (919 cases, 54.83%), phlegm (498 cases, 29.71%), water retention (434 cases, 25.89%), yang deficiency (215 cases, 12.82%) and yin deficiency (191 cases, 11.40%). Among the 1676 patients, 1308 cases of acute heart failure mainly showed syndrome of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis (386 cases, 29.51%), and 368 of chronic heart fai-lure mainly showed syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis (118 cases, 32.07%). Patients with syndrome of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis had the shortest disease duration of 0.3 months, while those with syndrome of heart yang deficiency had the longest disease duration of 15 months. The proportion of syndrome of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis was the highest in patients with heart failure combined with coronary artery disease, the proportion of syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis with water retention was the highest in patients with heart failure combined with atrial fibrillation, and the proportion of patients with syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis with water retention and syndrome of yang deficiency with water retention in those applying diuretics during the hospital stay was the highest with more than 86%. The different 7 TCM syndromes showed statistically difference in patients with complications including coronary artery disease, old myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, pre and post-admission medication usage including intravenous vasodilators, cardiac stimulants, diuretics, and level of blood chloride, blood urea, blood creatinine, blood bicarbonate, blood albumin, and blood total bilirubin (P<0.05). ConclusionThe most common TCM syndromes in patients with heart failure are syndrome of phlegm turbidity and blood stasis and syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis. Different TCM syndromes have different characteristics in gender, disease complications, medication before and after admission, and blood indexes.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES:
Tibetan tea is a kind of dark tea, due to the inherent complexity of natural products, the chemical composition and beneficial effects of Tibetan tea are not fully understood. The objective of this study was to unravel the composition of Tibetan tea using knowledge-guided multilayer network (KGMN) techniques and explore its potential antioxidant and hypolipidemic mechanisms in mice.MATERIALS/METHODS: The C57BL/6J mice were continuously gavaged with Tibetan tea extract (T group), green tea extract (G group) and ddH 2 O (H group) for 15 days. The activity of total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in mice was detected.Transcriptome sequencing technology was used to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the antioxidant and lipid-lowering effects of Tibetan tea in mice. Furthermore, the expression levels of liver antioxidant and lipid metabolism related genes in various groups were detected by the real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) method.
RESULTS:
The results showed that a total of 42 flavonoids are provisionally annotated in Tibetan tea using KGMN strategies. Tibetan tea significantly reduced body weight gain and increased T-AOC and SOD activities in mice compared with the H group. Based on the results of transcriptome and qPCR, it was confirmed that Tibetan tea could play a key role in antioxidant and lipid lowering by regulating oxidative stress and lipid metabolism related pathways such as insulin resistance, P53 signaling pathway, insulin signaling pathway, fatty acid elongation and fatty acid metabolism.
CONCLUSIONS
This study was the first to use computational tools to deeply explore the composition of Tibetan tea and revealed its potential antioxidant and hypolipidemic mechanisms, and it provides new insights into the composition and bioactivity of Tibetan tea.

Objective:
To explore the relationship between parent child relationship and rebelliousness of junior middle school students in boarding schools and to provide a scientific basis for preventing the occurrence of youth rebellion.
Methods:
A cluster sampling method was used to investigate parent child separation, family intimacy, and rebellion among 1 790 junior high school students in one boarding middle school in Lujiang County, Hefei City, Anhui Province in January 2020, and the influence of parent child relationship on students rebelliousness was analyzed by Chi square test and binary Logistic regression.
Results:
The detection rate of rebelliousness among participants was 21.45%(384/ 1 790 ). Junior middle school students who were in senior grade (second and third grades), reported higher household economic status and no communication with parents during the past month were more likely to have rebelliousness( OR=1.83, 1.89, 1.80, 1.77 , P <0.05); Junior middle school students with higher parental warmth and intimacy were less likely to have rebelliousness( OR=0.52, 0.71, P <0.05); Gender, length of boarding, maternal education, frequency of meeting parents during boarding, and childhood experience of separation with parents showed no statistical significance on rebelliousness( P >0.05).
Conclusion
The detection rate of rebellious psychology among junior high school students in boarding schools is high, and good parent child relationship is the protective factor of rebellious psychology. Parents should pay attention to contact with their boarding children and strengthen communication to reduce rebelliousness among them.
8.Association between acute stress response and peer bullying behaviors among middle school students
Chinese Journal of School Health 2022;43(10):1462-1466
Objective:
To explore the association between acute stress response during the outbreak of COVID 19 and peer bullying behaviors during the normalized management of COVID 19 among middle school students, and to provide a basis for developing relevant measures for peer bullying prevention.
Methods:
In December 2020, a total of 2 219 students from two junior middle schools in South Anhui(Xuancheng City) and North Anhui(Huaibei City), were selected to participate in this study by using the cluster sampling method. The occurrence of verbal bullying, relational bullying, physical bullying and cyberbullying behaviors among victims and perpetrators of bullying, and self rated acute stress response during the outbreak of COVID 19 (social isolation) were investigated. Multiple Logistic regression models were conducted to explore the relationship between different levels of acute stress response during the COVID 19 outbreak and peer bullying behaviors among middle school students.
Results:
The reported rate of peer bullying, being bullied by others and bullying others during the COVID19 normalized management were 65.8%, 63.8% and 27.1%, respectively. The reporting rate of verbal bullying victimization was the highest (54.8%) and cyberbullying others was the lowest (4.6%). The mean score of acute stress response among middle school students during the COVID 19 outbreak was (6.50±1.67). Except for physically bullying others, the reported rate of other bullying behaviors was the highest in the high level acute stress response group ( P <0.05). Multiple Logistic regression models showed that high levels of acute stress response were associated with high risk of verbal bullying victimization ( OR =1.38), relational bullying victimization ( OR =2.28), physical bullying victimization ( OR =1.87) and cyberbullying victimization ( OR =2.30) after adjusting for related confounders. In the high level acute stress response group, verbal bullying ( OR =1.80), relational bullying ( OR =1.99), physical bullying ( OR =1.76) and cyberbullying ( OR =2.32) had higher risks of bullying others than in the low level acute stress response group ( P <0.05).
Conclusion
High levels of acute stress response are associated with different peer bullying behaviors, with stronger associations with cyberbullying.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2022;43(10):1472-1475
Objective:
To explore the relationship between different types of bullying behavior and depressive symptoms among adolescents, and to provide scientific basis for further prevention of peer bullying.
Methods:
Based on the follow up data of 1 687 adolescents from Huaibei City, Anhui Province in September 2019 (T1) and September 2020 (T2), the autoregressive cross lagged analysis was employed to explore the relationship between different types of peer bullying and depressive symptoms.
Results:
The scores of bullying behaviors (physical bullying, verbal bullying, relational bullying and cyber bullying) and depressive symptoms at T2 were lower than those at T1,and the differences were statistically significant ( t =13.60, 8.61,7.24,3.76,8.29, P <0.01). There was a positive correlation between bullying behavior and depressive symptoms ( P <0.01). The results from cross lagged regression analysis showed that physical, verbal, relational and cyber bullying at T1 could positively predict depressive symptoms at T2 ( β = 0.06 , 0.04, 0.12, 0.05), and physical, verbal, relational and cyber bullying at T1 could positively predict depressive symptoms at T2 ( β =0.07, 0.10, 0.13, 0.10) ( P <0.05).
Conclusion
There were bidirectional associations between adolescent peer bullying and depressive symptoms.
