Facing the requirements of promoting the healthy China initiative and improving people's health, the "bone health program" was proposed in 2024. In-depth development of a traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) prevention and control system is of strategic significance to the implementation of the "bone health program". Focusing on osteoporosis(OP), a representative disease affecting people's bone health, this paper concludes that accelerating the research on the prevention and control of OP by TCM is conducive to enhancing the knowledge and awareness of OP among the public, and it is beneficial to revealing the evolutionary pattern of OP and improving the understanding and management of this disease. Additionally, it can provide an overall framework for and strengthen the systematicity and completeness of the research on the prevention and treatment of OP by TCM. Meanwhile, it can help to explore new research paradigms and optimize the existing research model, so as to promote innovative breakthroughs in the prevention and treatment of bone health-related diseases by TCM. Under the overall layout of the "bone health program", importance should be attached to the early prevention and the innovation of very early diagnosis and intervention of OP. Emphasis should be put on the discovery of the target network of disease and treatment mechanism for revealing the core pathogenesis of OP and the therapeutic mechanism of TCM. In addition to local lesions of the bone and its clinical outcomes, attention should be paid to the development of multiple metabolic complications. The fusion of advanced interdisciplinary technologies should be promoted for OP and its complications, and thus a research and development system based on clinical application scenarios and driven by big data can be built. The measures above will facilitate the progress in the prevention and treatment of OP and other bone diseases by TCM and provide new momentum for enriching and deepening the research connotation of the "bone health program".

Objective:To evaluate the value of detection of serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) in opportunistic screening of liver cancer in Chinese population with a meta-analysis.Methods:Literatures on combined screening of liver cancer by AFP, CEA and CA19-9 were retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Database, Chongqing VIP database, PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library from the establishment of the databases to June 2023. The Quality Assessment Tool of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) was used to evaluate the quality of the literature. Stata 17.0 statistical software was used for meta-analysis, and Deeks funnel plot was used to analyze publication bias.Results:A total of 24 literatures met the inclusion criteria, including 1 471 patients with liver cancer and 2 150 controls. The overall sensitivity of AFP in liver cancer diagnosis (screening) was 0.71 (95% CI: 0.66-0.75), the total specificity was 0.86 (95% CI: 0.80-0.90), and the area under summary receiver operating characteristic (sROC) curve (AUC) was 0.82 (95% CI: 0.78-0.85). The total sensitivity of CEA in liver cancer diagnosis (screening) was 0.48 (95% CI: 0.40-0.56), the total specificity was 0.85 (95% CI: 0.79-0.89), and the AUC of sROC was 0.74 (95% CI: 0.70-0.77). The total sensitivity of CA19-9 in liver cancer diagnosis (screening) was 0.56 (95% CI: 0.50-0.61), the total specificity was 0.80 (95% CI: 0.73-0.85), and the AUC was 0.69 (95% CI: 0.65-0.73). AFP has the highest sensitivity and specificity among the three. The overall sensitivity of combined detection of AFP, CEA and CA19-9 for liver cancer diagnosis (screening) was increased to 0.89 (95% CI: 0.85-0.92), the overall specificity was 0.77 (95% CI: 0.70-0.82), and the AUC was 0.91 (95% CI: 0.88-0.93). No publication bias was found in either individual or combined test of the biomarkers. Conclusions:Detection of AFP alone has high sensitivity and specificity, and it is a tumor marker that can be used for the opportunistic screening of liver cancer. When combined tests of AFP, CEA and CA19-9 are used to screen liver cancer, the results should be interpreted more carefully.

Objective Viral encephalitis is an infectious disease severely affecting human health.It is caused by a wide variety of viral pathogens,including herpes viruses,flaviviruses,enteroviruses,and other viruses.The laboratory diagnosis of viral encephalitis is a worldwide challenge.Recently,high-throughput sequencing technology has provided new tools for diagnosing central nervous system infections.Thus,In this study,we established a multipathogen detection platform for viral encephalitis based on amplicon sequencing. Methods We designed nine pairs of specific polymerase chain reaction(PCR)primers for the 12 viruses by reviewing the relevant literature.The detection ability of the primers was verified by software simulation and the detection of known positive samples.Amplicon sequencing was used to validate the samples,and consistency was compared with Sanger sequencing. Results The results showed that the target sequences of various pathogens were obtained at a coverage depth level greater than 20×,and the sequence lengths were consistent with the sizes of the predicted amplicons.The sequences were verified using the National Center for Biotechnology Information BLAST,and all results were consistent with the results of Sanger sequencing. Conclusion Amplicon-based high-throughput sequencing technology is feasible as a supplementary method for the pathogenic detection of viral encephalitis.It is also a useful tool for the high-volume screening of clinical samples.

Objective Genotypes(G)1,3,and 5 of the Japanese encephalitis virus(JEV)have been isolated in China,but the dominant genotype circulating in Chinese coastal areas remains unknown.We searched for G5 JEV-infected cases and attempted to elucidate which JEV genotype was most closely related to human Japanese encephalitis(JE)in the coastal provinces of China. Methods In this study,we collected serum specimens from patients with JE in three coastal provinces of China(Guangdong,Zhejiang,and Shandong)from 2018 to 2020 and conducted JEV cross-neutralization tests against G1,G3,and G5. Results Acute serum specimens from clinically reported JE cases were obtained for laboratory confirmation from hospitals in Shandong(92 patients),Zhejiang(192 patients),and Guangdong(77 patients),China,from 2018 to 2020.Seventy of the 361 serum specimens were laboratory-confirmed to be infected with JEV.Two cases were confirmed to be infected with G1 JEV,32 with G3 JEV,and two with G5 JEV. Conclusion G3 was the primary infection genotype among JE cases with a definite infection genotype,and the infection caused by G5 JEV was confirmed serologically in China.

Objective To investigate the influence of changes in blood flow parameters on pulse rate characteristics by taking the advantage of controllable parameters in an experimental cardiopulmonary bypass system.Methods A set of human circulatory system equipped with an in vitro wrist model was established.By changing parameters such as the heart rate,wrist flow,pressure,and system compliance,a photoplethysmography pulse wave signal was obtained from the wrist model,and the time-and frequency-domain indices of pulse rate variability were extracted.Results Changes in heart rate,pressure,and system compliance caused a change in pulse shape,but the time domain indices NN50 and PNN50,which indicate pulse rate variability,were zero,and the other indices and frequency domain indices were in the very low value category.Conclusions In the absence of heart rate variability,hemodynamic changes in heart rate,wrist flow,blood pressure,and system compliance did not produce significant pulse rate variability.This study can provide a reference for studies on pulse rate variability and heart rate using more convenient wrist acquisition equipment.

Aim To establish a quantitative immunofluorescent bioactivity assay(ICW)for insulin glargine based on CHO-IN-SRB 1284 transgenic cells,and to study its equivalence with in-sulin bioassay of Ch.P.Methods The cells were diluted 25 times with 1.5 × 108 L-1 cell density plates and 1 500 μmol·L-1 insulin glargine,and then diluted with a 3-fold gradient se-ries.The cells were stimulated in microporous plates for 20 min.After fixation,permeation and antibody incubation.Quantitative immunofluorescence biological activity was detected by odyssey two-color infrared fluorescence imaging system.Results There was a good dose-effect relationship between the concentration of insulin glargine in ICW and its relative potency.The method had good specificity,and the relative accuracy,intermediate preci-sion and linearity met the requirements.The relative deviation of biological activity results of 7 batches of insulin glargine samples measured by the two methods was less than 10％.The results were analyzed by SPSS and SAS software,which showed that the methods were correlated and equivalent.Conclusions The quantitative immunofluorescence assay for the biological activity of insulin glargine can be established.The method has good spe-cificity,high accuracy and precision,and has correlation and e-quivalent with biotiter assay,which can be applied to in vitro ef-ficacy evaluation and quality control of insulin glargine.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To analyze the application value of serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen (CA)19-9 and CA242 in screening colorectal cancer with a meta-analysis.Methods:A literature search was conducted in the databases of Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP to identify studies on applying CEA, CA19-9 and CA242 for detection of colorectal cancer from the establishment of the databases to October 2023. The Quality Evaluation Tool of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) was used to evaluate the quality of the literature. Stata17.0 statistical software was used for meta-analysis. Deeks funnel plot was used to analyze publication bias.Results:A total of 34 articles of case-control studies met the criteria. Meta-analysis revealed that the diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity of CEA, CA19-9 and CA242 were all low, the area under the curve (AUC) of summary receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.62, 0.63 and 0.73, the sensitivity was 0.42, 0.27 and 0.36, respectively. The combined detection of CEA+CA19-9+CA242 significantly improved the pooled diagnostic accuracy (AUC: 0.92(95% CI: 0.89-0.94) and sensitivity: 0.75(95% CI: 0.65-0.83)), the specificity was mildly reduced (dropped from above 0.95 to 0.90(95% CI 0.87-0.93)). The Deek′s test indicated no publication bias. Conclusions:Combined detection of CEA+CA19-9+CA242 can significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity in screening colorectal cancer with a compromised specificity. However, due to the lack of data, whether it can meet the demand for opportunistic screening in the physical examination population needs to be confirmed.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP) and the levels of zonulin, zonula occludens protein-1 (ZO-1), tumor necrosis factor -α (TNF -α) in the peripheral blood of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP), and the value of predicting moderate and severe AP.Methods:The clinical data of 115 AP patients admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from June 2020 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into mild group (69 cases) and moderate severe group (46 cases). The blood levels of zonulin, ZO-1, and TNF-α were measured for all patients on the 1st, 3rd, and 7th day after admission, and the results of the two group tests were compared. The correlation between zonulin, ZO-1, TNF -α and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) scores on the 1st day was and the value of various indicators for predicting moderate to severe AP were analyzed.Results:The C-reactive protein (CRP) levels of AP patients in the moderate to severe group were higher than those in the mild group, and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). The levels of zonulin, ZO-1, and TNF -α in AP patients in the moderate to severe group showed an upward trend on the 1st, 3rd, and 7th days after admission. The levels of zonulin, ZO-1, and TNF -α in AP patients in the moderate to severe group were higher than those in the mild group at the same time point, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The APACHE Ⅱ score of AP patients on the first day of admission was positively correlated with the levels of zonulin, ZO-1, and TNF -α ( r=0.736, 0.552, 0.621, all P<0.05). Zonulin had the highest area under the curve (AUC) for predicting moderate to severe AP, at 0.892, with an optimal threshold of 2.075 pg/ml. Zonulin had the highest sensitivity, at 0.804, and ZO-1 had the highest specificity, at 0.926. Using zonulin ≥2.075 pg/ml, ZO-1≥399.4 ng/ml, and TNF -α≥40.88 pg/ml as thresholds; the sensitivity and specificity obtained from parallel experiments were 0.976 and 0.710, respectively; The sensitivity and specificity obtained from the series of experiments were 0.326 and 0.999, respectively. Conclusions:There is a correlation between the serum levels of zonulin, ZO-1, and TNF -α in AP patients and the severity of AP. Zonulin, ZO-1, and TNF -α have certain clinical value in predicting moderate to severe AP.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative electroacupuncture (EA) intervention on postoperative urination function in patients with mixed hemorrhoid surgery. METHODS: A total of 240 patients with mixed hemorrhoid surgery under lumbar anesthesia were randomly divided into an EA preconditioning group (group A, 60 cases, 9 cases dropped off), an intraoperative EA group (group B, 60 cases, 4 cases dropped off), a postoperative EA group (group C, 60 cases, 6 cases dropped off), and a non-acupuncture group (group D, 60 cases, 3 cases dropped off). In the groups A, B and C, EA was exerted at Zhongliao (BL 33) and Huiyang (BL 35) , with disperse-dense wave, 4 Hz/20 Hz in frequency, and lasting 30 min, at 30 min before lumbar anesthesia, immediately after lumbar anesthesia and 6 h after surgery, respectively. No EA intervention was performed in the group D. The postoperative urination smoothness score in each group was observed 24 h after surgery. The first urination time, first urination volume, urine residual volume after first urination were recorded, and incidence of indwelling catheterization, postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) score, number of remedial analgesia, and the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting were observed in each group. RESULTS: In the groups A, B and C, the postoperative urination smoothness scores were superior to the group D (P<0.05), and the time of first urination was earlier than the group D (P<0.05). In the group C, the time of first urination was earlier than the group A and the group B (P<0.05), the first urination volume was higher than the group D (P<0.05), and the urine residual volume after first urination was lower than the group D (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of indwelling catheterization and postoperative nausea and vomiting among the 4 groups (P>0.05). The VAS scores of the group A, B and C were lower than that in the group D (P<0.05), and the number of remedial analgesia cases was lower than that in the group D (P<0.05). CONCLUSION EA intervention could promote the recovery of urination function and relieve postoperative pain in patients with mixed hemorrhoids surgery. Early postoperative EA intervention is more conducive to the recovery of urination function.
