ABSTRACT
Shanghuo(excessive internal heat) is a special organic state based on the concept of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), commonly known as the abnormal heating syndrome of body in folks. With the acceleration of modern life rhythm and the increase of the social competition pressure, emotional stress has become an important cause for the spread of Shanghuo symptoms. What's more, Shanghuo can impact the body physiological functions to cause the onset, recurrence and progression of common diseases, harming the health of the body. According to the long-term research findings, the author found that Shanghuo referred to the imbalance of multiple physiological functions, such as nerve, immunity and metabolism, caused by emotional stress. "Shanghuo" is not a disease itself, but it can increase the susceptibility to a variety of diseases. This study reviewed the traditional medicine theory and the modern medical studies, and explored the relevance and correlation mechanisms between the Shanghuo symptoms and disease susceptibility, so as to provide a reference to improve the state of sub-health and prevent or treat modern diseases.

ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the status of undergraduates′ sub-health and explore the relationship between personality traits and sub-health and the mediating role of self-harmony. Methods A total of 196 undergraduate nursing students in Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were investigated by Sub-health Self-rating Scale (SSS), Self Consistency and Congruence Scale (SCCS) and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire Short Scale. Results The the total scores of the undergraduate nursing students′personality traits, self-harmony and sub-health were 22.71±4.90, 102.74±14.41, 182.54± 31.76. The neuroticism and extroversion of personality traits were significantly correlated with self-harmony and sub-health (P<0.01). Neuroticism had a significant prediction on self-harmony (β=0.37, P<0.01) and sub-health (β=-0.64, P<0.01), after controlling self-harmony, the prediction on sub-health was reduced, but still significant (β=-0.56, P<0.01);extroversion had a significant prediction on self-harmony (β=-0.27, P<0.01) and sub-health (β=0.54, P<0.01), after controlling self-harmony, the prediction on sub-health was reduced, but still significant (β=0.46, P < 0.01). Conclusions The sub-health status of undergraduate nursing students was not optimistic. Nursing students′ personality traits of psychoticism, extroversion, which directly impact on the health status, and through self-harmony indirectly affect their health level, self-harmony played a intermediary role between personality traits and sub-health.

ABSTRACT
This study was designed to screen the targets of bioactive ingredients of Baihe Dihuang Tang, and investigate the "multi-components, multi-targets and multi-pathways" intervention mechanism of Baihe Dihuang Tang on psychological sub-health. The ADME/T calculation method was used to screen the active ingredient of Baihe Dihuang Tang, and then using ADME/T calculation method to filtrate the active components of Baihe Dihuang Tang, then Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP), PharmMapper database and Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) were combined to forecast and filtrate the targets of the main active ingredients. In addition, the predicted targets were verified by the Surflex-dock in Sybyl. The Cytoscape software was used to construct the Baihe Dihuang Tang ingredients-targets-disease network, while ClueGO software was used to analyze the molecular function and biological process of the targets. There are total 11 active ingredients and 21 targets in Baihe Dihuang Tang. A good interaction between them was supported by the score. The 21 targets were mainly involved in gamma-aminobutyric acid signaling pathway, cAMP metabolic process and monoamine transport relevant biological processes. Thus, Baihe Dihuang Tang may play a role in the intervention of psychological sub-health by regulating the activity of G-protein coupled amine receptor and the expression of monoamine neurotransmitter, which reflects the features of traditional Chinese medicine multi-components, multi-targets and multi-pathways. This research provides evidences on the pharmacological mechanism of Baihe Dihuang Tang effect on psychological sub-health.
