Background: We aimed to determine the plausible role of high body mass index (BMI) in the etiopathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD), erosive esophagitis (EE) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and their complex associations.
Methods: The published literature was retrieved from Cochrane, Google Scholar, Embase, PubMed and Scopus databases until August 2021 based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment scale was used for the risk of bias and publication bias with a funnel plot.
As a strategy to prevent the well-known immunosuppressant effects of cyclophosphamide (Cyp), the immunomodulatory effects of the polysaccharide extract of the fruit of (Turcz.) Baill. were investigated in the present study.

In the present work, a rapid resolution liquid chromatography coupled with quadruple-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (RRLC-Q-TOF-MS)-based metabolomics was conducted to investigate the intervention effect of Schisandra chinensis lignans (SCL) on hyperlipidemia mice induced by high-fat diet (HFD).
Methods: Hyperlipidemia mice were orally administered with SCL (100 mg/kg) once a day for 4 weeks.

Danshen was able to reduce the risk of the patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), but the mechanism is still widely unknown. Biochemical indices (lipid profile, markers of renal and liver function, and homocysteine (Hcy)) are closely associated with CHD risk. We aimed to investigate whether the medicine reduces CHD risk by improving these biochemical indices.

Methods: The morphological changes were observed and recorded in the scene, the height and diameter of the plants were measured; the growth Verhaulst model was set up with the SPSS 17.0 software; the sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction were carried out in artificial cultivation.
