Impact of group cognitive behavioral therapy counseling on cognitive control among college students with high obsessive compulsive traits / 中国学校卫生

Objective@#To explore the effect of group cognitive behavioral therapy (GCBT) on cognitive control among college students with high obsessive compulsive traits, to provide basic information for the psychological counseling intervention for college students.@*Methods@#From March to April 2019, 687 students were conveniently selected from 2 universities in Hefei. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 58 students with high obsessive traits were selected and divided into experimental group ( n =29) and control group ( n =29) by random number table method. The experimental group received cognitive behavioral group counseling for 4 weeks (1.5 h each time, twice a week), while the control group receive no intervention. The Obsessive Compulsive Inventory Revised (OCI-R), Stroop Color Word Test (SCWT), Digital Span Test (DST), and Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WSCT) were used to assess in two groups at baseline and 4 weeks later.@*Results@#After 4 weeks, the scores of OCI-R in the GCBT group (10.28±7.22) was lower than that of in the control group (15.90±10.20) ( t=2.42, P<0.05). Before and after intervention, compared with the control group [(21.89±6.63, 20.52±7.37)s, (8.62±4.43, 8.04±4.84)s] in Stroop C and Stroop interfere effects (SIE), the GCBT group [(22.14±4.92, 16.81±3.43)s, (8.36±3.87, 4.82±1.86)s], the interaction of time group was statistically significant ( F =14.60, 10.54, P <0.05). Compared with the control group (6.21±1.35, 6.55±1.45)times, the scores of DST reverse in the GCBT group (6.31±1.44, 7.24±1.38) times were statistically significant ( F=3.96, P <0.05).@*Conclusion@#It suggests that cognitive behavioral group counseling can improve the inhibitory control and working memory of college students with high obsessive compulsive traits, but does not change the cognitive flexibility.

Identification of constituents in Gui-Zhi-Jia-Ge-Gen-Tang by LC-IT-MS combined with LC-Q-TOF-MS and elucidation of their metabolic networks in rat plasma after oral administration.

Gui-Zhi-Jia-Ge-Gen-Tang (GZJGGT) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription commonly used to treat cervical spondylopathy, scapulohumeral periarthritis, etc. Though it is widely applied in clinical practice, the effective constituents of GZJGGT remain unclear. This was the first report on the identification of the chemical constituents from GZJGGT in vitro and in vivo using LC-IT-MS combined with LC-Q-TOF-MS. A total of 141 constituents were detected in GZJGGT, and 77 were identified. These compounds mainly included flavonoid glycosides, triterpene saponins, monoterpene glycosides, puerosides, and organic acids. Among them, 12 compounds were unequivocally identified in comparison with reference substances. Additionally, a diagnostic base peak ion filtering strategy for rapid classification of flavonoid O-glycosides and C-glycosides was proposed. After gastrointestinal administration of GZJGGT to rats, 45 prototypes and 48 metabolites in rat plasma were speculated. In addition, the metabolic profile of GZJGGT was portrayed to understand interrelationship between metabolites.

Anti-inflammatory Terpenoids from the Leaves and Twigs of Dysoxylum gotadhora.

Nine new terpenoids (1-3, 5-10), including three cyclolanostane triterpenoids (1-3) and six isopimarane diterpenoids (5-10), along with six known terpenoids (4, 11-15), were isolated from the leaves and twigs of Dysoxylum gotadhora. Compound 1 represents a class of rare natural 21,24-epoxy cyclolanostane-type triterpenoids, and compounds 2 and 3 are the first examples of 21,25-epoxy cyclolanostane-type triterpenoids. Compounds 1, 2, 4, 8, and 15 exhibited noteworthy inhibition of nitric oxide production induced by lipopolysaccharide in RAW 264.7 cells with IC50 values of 25.5, 41.5, 27.4, 14.5, and 45.2 µM, respectively.

[Identification of constituents in Suanzaoren tang by LC-Q-TOF-MS and LC-IT-MS].

LC-Q-TOF-MS and LC-IT-MS in positive and negative ion mode were applied to simultaneously characterize the constituents in Suanzaoren tang. Analysis was performed on an Agilent Zorbax SB-C18, Rapid Resolution HT column(4.6 mmx 50 mm, 1. 8 micro m) with gradient elution of acetonitrile(A) -aqueous solution containing 0. 05% formic acid(B) at a flow rate of 0. 6 mL min(-1) and the column temperature was 30 degreesC. By comparing MS fragmentation, accurate molecular weight, literature date and standard compounds information, a total of48 compounds were successfully identified or speculated. The origins of these compounds were assigned to the corresponding Chinese medicine. Thirty-one compounds were reported in Suanzaoren tang for the first time. LC-Q-TOF-MS combined with LC-IT-MS is a simple and rapid tool for the identification of constituents of Suanzaoren tang, and the results could provide evidence for the research on quality combined and effective constituents of Suanzaoren tang.
