OBJECTIVE:To examine the differences in cognitive processing between patients with mild cognitive impairment(MCI)of different Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)syndrome types to provide evidence supporting the TCM typing of MCI. METHODS:Participants were screened using a battery of scales for spleen and kidney deficiency(SKD)/liver Qi stagnation(LQS)-type MCI or those without syndrome or normal control(NC).Following sex,age,and educational matching,behavioral and electroencephalographic data were recorded using the verbal N-back experimental paradigm.The data were then analyzed and compared with respect to the reaction time and correctness of the participants in each group,as well as the amplitude and latency of the event-related potential(ERP)components of P2,N2,and P3. RESULTS:There were no statistically significant differences in the accuracy or reaction times of the behavioral data of the groups.Regarding ERP data,the SKD group had a shorter P2 latency than the LQS and NC groups,while the latter two groups did not differ statistically.The SKD group had a shorter N2 latency than the NC group,while the SKD group did not differ from the LQS group.The SKD and LQS groups had a shorter P3 latency than the NC group. CONCLUSION:Our study offers objective evidence of the distinction between the types of TCM syndrome.Different types of TCM syndromes produce different disease mechanisms,resulting in brain damage with different presentations of cognitive impairment and cognitive processing characteristics.
OBJECTIVE:Evidence of an association between a change in body size and the risk of all-cause mortality is limited among older populations. We explored the association of a change in body size over three years with the risk of all-cause mortality in an older Chinese population. METHODS:A total of 5134 participants from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS) were recruited. Cox proportional-hazards models were used to assess the association of changes in body mass index (BMI) and body fat percentage (BF%) with risk of all-cause mortality, using hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS:Of the 5134 participants (median age, 81 years; 2716 women [52.90%]), 1494 deaths were observed over a median of 4.08 years of follow-up. Compared with participants with stable body size (change within 5%), those with more than a 10% decrease in BMI or BF% had 36% and 46% higher risks, respectively, of all-cause mortality (HR = 1.36, 95% CI: 1.17-1.59; and HR = 1.46, 95% CI: 1.25-1.72); also, those with more than a 10% increase in BMI or BF% had 22% and 17% higher risks of all-cause mortality (HR = 1.22, 95% CI: 1.05-1.41; and HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.02-1.35). CONCLUSIONS:This prospective cohort study of older adults suggests that a dramatic change in body size was positively associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality. More attention should be paid to the effects of a dramatic change in body size, particularly a dramatic decrease in body size, among the Chinese population.
Objectives: Evidence on the association between garden work and risk of incident dementia in the older Chinese population is limited. This study aimed to explore the association between the frequency of garden work and risk of incident dementia in an older population in China. Study design: This was a national cohort study. Methods: This study analysed data from 8676 participants (median age: 86 years) from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey. Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between the frequency of garden work and risk of incident dementia using hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Multiplicative and additive interaction effects were calculated between the frequency of garden work and age, sex or residence on incident dementia; subgroup analyses of the association were also conducted by age, sex and residence. In addition, sensitivity analyses were performed to assess the robustness of the results. Results: During 4.31 years (median) of follow-up, 633 participants developed dementia. Compared with participants who did not engage in garden work, the adjusted risk of incident dementia for those who regularly or almost daily engaged in garden work decreased by 28% (HR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.57-0.93). An additive interaction effect between frequency of garden work and age on incident dementia was observed, with subgroup analyses demonstrating similar statistically significant associations among participants aged >= 85 years, women and city or town residents. Sensitivity analyses were consistent with the primary analysis in the present study. Conclusions: Frequent engagement in garden work may be associated with a reduced risk of dementia and may be an effective measure to prevent incident dementia in the older population in China.

目的 比较不同年龄被试的失匹配负波(MMN)和P3a脑电成分,探讨脑老化对认知注意加工的影响.方法 按照性别1:2匹配,选择郑州市某社区认知功能正常的青年(青年组)和中老年被试(中老年组),采用听觉三刺激oddball范式记录被试脑电数据,比较两组被试脑电注意加工成分MMN和P3a的差异.结果 两组MMN波幅及潜伏期均无统计学差异(P>0.05).与青年组相比,中老年组P3a波幅明显减小(P<0.05),青年组波幅显著大于中老年组(P<0.05);且中老年组P3a潜伏期延长显著长于青年组(P<0.05).结论 随着年龄的增加,认知加工晚期的注意朝向加工出现损伤,最终导致认知功能逐渐下降.
Background: Existing evidence on the association of dynamic change in sleep duration with risk of allcause mortality in Chinese older population is limited. We aimed to explore the association of 3-year change in sleep duration with risk of all-cause mortality in a Chinese older population. Materials and methods: A total of 5772 Chinese older participants (median age 82 years) were enrolled in the current study. Cox proportional-hazard models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association of 3-year change in sleep duration with risk of all-cause mortality. Subgroup analyses of the association between 3-year change in sleep duration and risk of all-cause mortality were conducted by age, sex and residence. Results: During a median of 4.08 years of follow-up, death developed in 1762 participants. Compared with -1 to <1 h/day change in sleep duration, the adjusted risk of all-cause mortality with < -3 h/day change in sleep duration may increase 26% (HR = 1.26, 95% CI: 1.05-1.52); the risk of all-cause mortality with 3-year change from short to long sleep duration, or long to short sleep duration versus stable normal sleep duration status was increased about 28% and 52%, respectively (HR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.00-1.64 and HR = 1.52, 95% CI: 1.21-1.92). Subgroup analyses demonstrated that similar significant associations were observed among participants with 65 to <85 years, men and living in city and town. Conclusions: Dynamic sleep duration change was significantly associated with risk of all-cause mortality. The current study suggests that sleep duration may be a non-invasive indicator for interventions aiming to reduction risk of all-cause mortality in Chinese older population. (c) 2023 Elsevier B.V.

Purpose The aim of this meta-analysis is to evaluate the changes in nutritional indicators in individuals with obesity before and after SG. Materials and Methods A systematic retrieval of the available literature was performed using PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases. The following indicators were evaluated: serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin B12, folate, magnesium, and zinc from pre-operation to post-operation. Results A total of 38 studies met inclusion criteria. A significant increase was observed in serum 25(OH)D (SMD = 0.70, 95%CI 0.38 to 1.02, P < 0.001), phosphorus (SMD = 0.40, 95%CI 0.14 to 0.67, P = 0.003), iron (SMD = 0.50, 95%CI 0.38 to 0.62, P < 0.001), and folate (SMD = 0.37, 95%CI 0.09 to 0.65, P = 0.01) after SG. Nevertheless, the increasing trend of serum phosphorus ( P = 0.143) and folate ( P = 0.774) disappeared in the unprescribed subgroup. A significant decrease in serum zinc (SMD = − 0.41, 95%CI − 0.81 to − 0.01, P = 0.044) was found after SG. No significant changes in serum calcium (SMD = 0.08, 95%CI − 0.09 to 0.25, P = 0.372), vitamin B12 (SMD = 0.10, 95%CI − 0.13 to 0.33, P = 0.398), and magnesium (SMD = 0.24, 95%CI − 0.10 to 0.58, P = 0.169) were observed. However, a significant decrease in serum calcium ( P = 0.042) and vitamin B12 ( P = 0.037) was found in the unprescribed subgroup. Conclusions Serum 25(OH)D, phosphorus, iron, and folate levels improved after a careful monitoring and due to a rigorous supplementation. The optimal dose of calcium, magnesium, and zinc supplementation has yet to be established; therefore, a broader supplementation of trace elements and minerals has to be suggested. Graphical abstract
