Analysis on Contents of Main Constituents in Prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix，Morindae Officinalis Radix Processed with Steaming and Salt / 中国实验方剂学杂志

Objective:To investigate the differences of main components of prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix，Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming and salt. Method:A total of 83 batches samples were collected in the market， including 41 batches of prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix，32 batches of Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming and 10 batches of Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with salt. The contents of main components were determined with high performance liquid chromatography coupled with four-pole tandem time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS），and the differences were analyzed. Result:The main components of prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix and Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with salt were fructo-oligosaccharides （GF<italic>n</italic>），monotropein. The main components of Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming were fructose，glucose，sucrose，and monotropein. The main differences of prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix and<italic> </italic>Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming and salt were the contents of fructose，glucose，sucrose and GF2-GF11. The contents of GF2-GF11 in Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming and salt were all lower than those in prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix，with extremely significant differences（<italic>P</italic><0.01）. The contents of fructose，glucose and sucrose in<italic> </italic>Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming were significantly higher than those in prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix. The content of GF3 in each batch was higher than 40.0 mg·g^-1 in prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix and Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with salt，and significantly higher than the limit in<italic> Chinese Pharmacopoeia</italic>. However，there were only a few batches of Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming in line with the requirements of <italic>Chinese Pharmacopoeia</italic>. The contents of monotropein in processing Morindae Officinalis Radix and Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming and salt were 42.6，39.8，32.3 mg·g^-1，respectively. The content of monotropein in prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix was higher than that in Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming. The content of monotropein in Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming was higher than that in Morindae Officinalis Radix<italic> </italic>processed with salt. Compared with the components of GF2-GF11，the effect of processing with steaming process and/or salt on monotropein content was relatively less. Conclusion:The contents of GF2-GF11 components in prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix were converted into fructose，glucose and sucrose after processing with steaming and/or salt. The results showed that the content limit of Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming needs to be revised in line with the requirements of <italic>Chinese Pharmacopoeia </italic>for the quality control of Morindae Officinalis Radix. The results provide a reference basis for revising the quality standards and studying the pharmacodynamic material basis of prepared Morindae Officinalis Radix，Morindae Officinalis Radix processed with steaming and salt.

Analysis on the differences between employment quality and social demand of graduates majoring in traditional Chinese medicine / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective To explore the differences between the employment quality of graduates ma-joring in Chinese medicine and the demand of employers for providing theoretical reference for improving the employment rate of students in Chinese medicine colleges and universities. Methods The questionnaire on the employment quality of graduates majoring in traditional Chinese medicine and the needs of employers was designed based on the interviews and literature review. The questionnaire contains the dimensions of knowledge, ability and professional accomplishment, with several observation points in each dimension. Each observation point is measured by Likert 5 points, with "5" being the most important and "1" the least important. During the 2017 campus recruitment period of Heilongjiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, 350 questionnaires were issued to the graduates and 312 valid questionnaires were collected through convenient sampling, while 228 questionnaires were issued to the employers and 195 valid were collected. The database was established by using Excel software and the independent sample t test was conducted by using SPSS 22.0. Results The differences between graduates and employers were statistically significant in academic performance, knowledge structure, internship experience, professional conformity, scientific crea-tivity, experience of student cadres, CET-4 & CET-6 certificate, physical and mental health, honesty and trustworthiness (t=9.016, P=0.022; t=9.498, P=0.000; t=2.303, P=0.031; t=11.000, P=0.000; t=6.815, P=0.000; t=2.208, P=0.035; t=3.565, P=0.041; t=3.066, P=0.005; t=4.441, P=0.036). Conclusion There is a gap between the employment quality of graduates majoring in traditional Chinese medicine and the demand of employers. Traditional Chinese medicine colleges and universities can improve the employment quality of graduates and promote their successful employment by accelerating the course integration reform, and strengthening the construction of school spirit and credit evaluation system.

Responses of Patients with Disorders of Consciousness to Habit Stimulation: A Quantitative EEG Study / 神经科学通报·英文版

Whether habit stimulation is effective in DOC patient arousal has not been reported. In this paper, we analyzed the responses of DOC patients to habit stimulation. Nineteen DOC patients with alcohol consumption or smoking habits were recruited and 64-channel EEG signals were acquired both at the resting state and at three stimulation states. Wavelet transformation and nonlinear dynamics were used to extract the features of EEG signals and four brain lobes were selected to investigate the degree of EEG response to habit stimulation. Results showed that the highest degree of EEG response was from the call-name stimulation, followed by habit and music stimulations. Significant differences in EEG wavelet energy and response coefficient were found both between habit and music stimulation, and between habit and call-name stimulation. These findings prove that habit stimulation induces relatively more intense EEG responses in DOC patients than music stimulation, suggesting that it may be a relevant additional method for eliciting patient arousal.
