		                        			OBJECTIVE To explore comprehensive management and potential issues associated with long-term prescriptions medications of psychiatry, in order to provide a reference for the comprehensive management of long-term prescriptions of psychiatry in psychiatric hospitals and other medical institutions’ pharmacies. METHODS Starting from the applicable principles for long-term prescriptions of psychiatry, this study introduced the standardized assessment and precautions before issuing long-term prescriptions, the formulation and adjustment of the drug list, as well as the rational management of the long-term prescriptions. It also analyzed potential issues that may arise in the comprehensive management of long-term prescription medications and proposed corresponding countermeasures and suggestions. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Prior to initiating long-term prescriptions, a standardized assessment should be conducted on patients from the aspects of their psychiatric condition and long-term potential risk factors, pharmacological treatment plans and other non-pharmacological therapies, physical illnesses. Additionally, healthcare providers should fulfill their obligation to inform patients or their family members. The comprehensive management of long-term prescription medications should be jointly established and improved by multiple departments, and the formulation of drug catalogs should avoid including drugs with potential social harm or medication risks while complying with policy requirements. Furthermore, measures such as adding special identifiers to long-term prescriptions, providing patients with reminders about (No.YGLX202537) prescription expiration, or offering online consultations can also effectively enhance the rationality of medication use under long-term prescriptions. Currently, the implementation of long-term prescriptions in psychiatry remains challenged by inconsistencies in prescription duration, incomplete coverage of diagnostic categories, poor patient adherence, and the risk of deviation in clinical assessments. In this regard, measures such as collaborating with multiple departments to strengthen long-term prescription information management, providing matching pharmaceutical services, ensuring the quality and rationality of long-term prescription implementation, and using modern methods to screen high-risk patients can be taken to improve patient medication compliance and safety.

		                        			BACKGROUND:LncRNA-TNFRSF13C,an important factor in B cell development and function,is expressed in periodontal tissues of patients with periodontitis,but the specific mechanism is still unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the mechanism of lncRNA-TNFRSF13C regulating miR-1246 on hypoxia-inducible factor 1α in periodontal cells. METHODS:Human periodontal ligament cells(hPDLCs)were treated with lipopolysaccharide and divided into group A(hPDLCs cell lines without transfection),group B(hPDLCs cell lines transfected with TNFRSF13C NC-siRNA),group C(hPDLCs cell lines transfected with TNFRSF13C-siRNA),group D(hPDLCs cell line transfected with miR-1246 mimics),group E(hPDLCs cell line transfected with miR-1246 siRNA),group F(hPDLCs cell line transfected with TNFRSF13C-siRNA+miR-1246 mimics),and group G(hPDLCs cell line transfected with TNFRSF13C-siRNA+miR-1246 siRNA).The relative expression of lncRNA-TNFRSF13C and miR-1246 in each group was detected by qRT-PCR.Cell counting kit-8 assay was used to detect cell viability.Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry.Expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and vascular endothelial growth factor proteins was detected by western blot.The correlation between lncRNA-TNFRSF13C and miR-1246 was analyzed by Pearson,and the targeting relationship was analyzed by dual-luciferase reporter assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There was no significant difference in human periodontal ligament cell activity,apoptosis rate and protein indexes between groups A and B(P>0.05).Compared with group B,hPDLCS cell activity in group C was increased,and apoptosis rate and the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and vascular endothelial growth factor proteins were decreased(P<0.05).Compared with group C,hPDLCS cell activity in group D was decreased,and apoptosis rate and the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and vascular endothelial growth factor proteins were increased(P<0.05).Compared with group D,the cell activity of group E was increased(P<0.05).The cell activity in group F was lower than that in group E,and the apoptosis rate was reduced in both groups E and F(P<0.05).Compared with group F,the cell activity of group G was increased,and the apoptosis rate and the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and vascular endothelial growth factor were decreased(P<0.05).LncRNA-TNFRSF13C was positively correlated with miR-1246(P<0.05).Compared with the TNFRSF13C-siRNA group,the fluorescence activity of miR-1246-wt in the TNFRSF13C-NC group was reduced(P>0.05);compared with the miR-1246-NC group,the fluorescence activities of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α-wt and vascular endothelial growth factor-wt in the miR-1246 mimics group were increased(P<0.05).To conclude,down-regulation of lncRNA-TNFRSF13C can promote the activity of periodontal cells treated with lipopolysaccharide,reduce apoptosis,and inhibit hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and vascular endothelial growth factor.The mechanism is related to the regulation of miR-1246 activity.

		                        			ObjectiveTo observe the intervention effect of Huaiqihuang granules (HQH) on immunoglobulin A vasculitis nephritis (IgAVN) mice and explore the underlying therapeutic mechanism. MethodFifty SPF-grade male Kunming mice were randomly divided into a normal group, an IgAVN model group, a dexamethasone group (2.5 mg·kg-1·d-1), a low-dose HQH group (4 g·kg-1·d-1), and a high-dose HQH group (8 g·kg-1·d-1). The mouse model was established using oral administration of gliadin combined with intravenous injection of India ink. After successful modeling, the mice were euthanized after 4 weeks of gastric gavage according to groups. The 24 h urinary total protein (24 h UTP), urine β2-microglobulin (β2-MG), serum total protein, albumin, IgA, etc. were detected in each group. Flow cytometry was used to determine the proportion of T helper 17 (Th17) cells in spleen cell suspension. Western blot was employed to detect the expression of adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase α (AMPKα), phosphorylated AMPKα (p-AMPKα), acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1), and phosphorylated ACC1 (p-ACC1) in Th17 cells. Pathological changes in the spleen and kidneys were observed. ResultCompared with the normal group, the IgAVN model group showed significant increases in 24 h UTP, urine β2-MG, total cholesterol (P<0.05), serum interleukin-17 (IL-17), IgA, Th17 proportion in the spleen cell suspension, and IL-17 expression in the spleen tissue (P<0.01), and significantly decreased serum total protein, albumin, p-AMPKα/AMPKα, and p-ACC1/ACC1 expression of Th17 cells (P<0.01). Compared with the IgAVN model group, in the 4th week, the 24 h UTP, urine β2-MG, serum IL-17, IgA levels, and renal IgA deposition were significantly reduced in each treatment group (P<0.01), and the Th17 proportion and IL-17 expression in spleen tissue were significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). Serum albumin levels significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with the IgAVN model group, the dexamethasone group and the high-dose HQH group showed increases in serum total protein (P<0.01), p-AMPKα/AMPKα, and p-ACC1/ACC1 expression of Th17 cells (P<0.05, P<0.01). The high-dose HQH group showed a significant decrease in total cholesterol level (P<0.05). Various treatment groups showed different degrees of improvement in spleen and kidney pathological changes. ConclusionHQH may affect Th17 cell differentiation by regulating the AMPK/ACC pathway, correcting immune inflammatory disorders, and exerting therapeutic effects on IgAVN.

		                        			BackgroundNegative effects of mobile phone addiction on undergraduate students have led to several health problems including depression, anxiety, attention deficit disorder, cognitive impairment and sleep disturbance. The undergraduate nursing students serve as an important reserve force of the clinical nursing work, and their poor psychological health would have a non-ignorable impact on the quality of the nursing work and the nurse-patient relationship in the future. ObjectiveTo investigate the relation between neuroticism and tendency of mobile phone addiction among undergraduate nursing students, and to examine the pathways through which perceived stress and self-control play a role in the relation by constructing a chain-mediated model. MethodsFrom February to March 2023, a total of 900 undergraduate nursing students across 10 universities in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province were selected through convenient sampling method. Several scales were adopted to assess undergraduate nursing students respectively, including the neuroticism subscale of Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised Short Scale for Chines (EPQ-RSC), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), Self-Control Scale (SCS) and Mobile Phone Addiction Tendency Scale (MPATS). The assessment were conducted on multiple aspects of these students including neurotic personality, subjective stress, self-control and mobile phone addiction tendency. Model 6 in the SPSS Macro Process 4.1 was used to examine the mediating effect of perceived stress and self-control between neuroticism and mobile phone addiction tendency among undergraduate nursing students. Results① Among the 900 students, 314 cases (34.89%) were found to be addicted to mobile phones. ② The score of neuroticism subscale in EPQ-RSC of nursing undergraduates was positively correlated with the total scores of PSS and MPATS (r=0.400, 0.287, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with score of SCS (r=-0.364, P<0.01). The total score of MPATS was positively correlated with the total score of PSS (r=0.362, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with the total score of SCS (r=-0.468, P<0.01). The total score of SCS was negatively correlated with the total score of PSS (r=-0.515, P<0.01). ③ Perceived stress and self-control performed partial mediation between neuroticism personality and mobile phone addiction tendency (with indirect effect values of 0.056 and 0.065, respectively, accounting for 19.72% and 22.89% of the total effect). Perceived stress and self-control played a chain mediating role between neuroticism personality and mobile phone addiction tendency (with an indirect effect value of 0.064, accounting for 22.54% of the total effect). ConclusionNeuroticism personality, perceived stress and self-control are confirmed to play important roles in mobile phone addiction tendency among undergraduate nursing students. Neuroticism personality not only directly affects the tendency of mobile phone addiction, but also affects their mobile phone addiction tendency through the chain mediating effect of perceived stress and self-control.[Funded by The 2020 Annual Project of the 13th Five-Year Plan of Education Science in Shaanxi Province (number, SGH20Y1386)]

		                        			Objective:To observe the neuroprotective effect of wind medicine (Puerariae Lobatue Radix and Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma) in combination with Panax ginseng total saponin (PNS) on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion rats; To elucidate the mechanism of "wind medicine increasing effect".Methods:Totally 140 male SD rats were divided into sham-operation group, model group, PNS group, Puerariae Lobatue Radix group, Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma group, Puerariae Lobatue Radix + PNS group, Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma + PNS group according to the random number table method, with 20 rats in each group. Except for the sham-operation group, the cerebral ischemia/reperfusion rat model was established using the modified Longa line bolus method in the remaining groups. After 7 d of administration of the appropriate pharmacologic intervention in each group, neurological dysfunction was evaluated by Zea-longa score after final administration, cerebral infarct volume was determined by TTC staining; blood brain barrier (BBB) permeability of brain tissue on the ischemic side was detected by Evans blue content; BBB ultrastructure of each group of rats was observed by transmission electron microscopy; Claudin 5 protein expression level was detected by immunohistochemistry; Zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1), major facilitator supeffamily domain-containing protein 2a (Mfsd2a), Occludin, P-glycoprotein (P-gp), Monocarboxylate Transporters-1 (MCT1) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) protein expression levels were detected by Western-blot.Results:Compared with the model group, the rat neurological function scores were reduced in each administration group ( P<0.05), infarct volume was reduced ( P<0.05), EB content of brain tissue decreased ( P<0.05), protein expressions of Claudin 5, ZO-1, Mfsd2a and Occludin in brain tissue were elevated ( P<0.05), the protein expressions of P-gp, BCRP and MCT1 were reduced ( P<0.05), and the protein expressions of Claudin 5, Mfsd2a, and Occludin was higher in the Puerariae Lobatue Radix + PNS group and Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma + PNS group than that of each group of medication alone ( P<0.05), and the protein expression of MCT1 was lower than that of each group of medication alone ( P<0.05); the protein expression level of ZO-1 in the Puerariae Lobatue Radix + PNS group was higher than that of the group of medication alone ( P<0.05); P-gp protein expression was lower in Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma + PNS group than in the PNS group and Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Wind medicine (Puerariae Lobatue Radix and Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma) may potentiate the neuroprotective effect of PNS on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion rats, and the mechanism may be related to the protection of BBB structural integrity and maintenance of central barrier properties, while regulating substance transport proteins and increasing the intracerebral content of the drug.

		                        			Human exhaled breath has great application prospects,e.g.,monitoring pharmacokinetics,disease diagnosis,due to its advantages such as non-invasive and high-frequency sampling.Breath samples can be collected from the oral and nasal cavity.However,the oral and nasal environment affect the chemical composition of breath sample.Therefore,the investigation on the chemical composition of mouth-exhaled breath and nose-exhaled breath is crucial for selection of appropriate sampling strategy for individual studies.In this work,secondary electrospray ionization-high resolution mass spectrometry(SESI-HRMS)was applied to analysis of respiratory metabolomics in real time.A quantitative analysis approach was established for 9 kinds of volatile organic compounds(VOCs)e.g.2-butanone,2-pentanone,ethyl acetate,methyl methacrylate,toluene,styrene,mesitylene,isoprene and limonene.The limit of detection was 2.3?240.8 ng/m3.The intra-day(n=6)and inter-day(n=18)relative standard deviations were 0.6%?4.6%and 4.3%?12.2%,respectively.Nine healthy subjects were recruited to investigate the chemical composition of mouth-exhaled and nose-exhaled breath.The results showed the good performance in quantitative analysis of 9 VOCs in breath air.It was found that the number of unique component(m/z)detected in mouth-exhaled breath(167)was 2.2 times greater than that detected in nose-exhaled breath(76),which might result from the complex environment in oral cavity.The signal intensity of commun component(163)was significantly different between mouth-exhaled breath and nose-exhaled breath.Additionally,the elemental composition analysis showed that the proportion of polar compounds detected in nose-exhaled breath was higher than that in mouth-exhaled breath.This study demonstrated that there was significant differences in the chemical composition between mouth-exhaled and nose-exhaled breath,which provided a theoretical basis for selection of exhalation mode.

		                        			 Objective:
		                        			The aging demographic landscape worldwide portends a heightened prevalence of neurodegenerative disorders. Foremost among these is Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the foremost cause of dementia in older adults. The shortage of efficacious therapies and early diagnostic indicators underscores the imperative to identify non-invasive biomarkers for early detection and disease monitoring. Recently, blood metabolites have emerged as promising candidates for AD biomarkers. 
		                        		
		                        			Methods:
		                        			Leveraging nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy on plasma specimens, we conducted a cross-sectional study encompassing 35 AD patients and 35 age-matched healthy controls. Cognitive function was evaluated using the mini-mental state examination in all participants, followed by peripheral blood sample collection. We utilized univariate and multivariate analyses to perform targeted lipidomic profiling via NMR spectroscopy. 
		                        		
		                        			Results:
		                        			Our study revealed significant differences in the expression profiles of low-density lipoprotein-associated subfractions in females and high-density lipoprotein-associated subfractions in males between AD patients and healthy controls (all p<0.05). However, there was no significant metabolite overlap between males and females. Furthermore, receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated that the combination of lipid metabolites had good diagnostic values (all area under the curve>0.70; p<0.05). 
		                        		
		                        			Conclusion
		                        			Our findings suggest that the blood plasma samples using NMR hold promise in distinguishing between AD patients and healthy controls, with significant clinical implications for advancing AD diagnostic methodologies.
