This paper systematically reviews the core concepts and lines of theoretical inheritance of major spleen-stomach theories in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， including spleen deficiency theory， spleen-stomach damp-heat theory， and liver-spleen disharmony theory. It is found that these theories have all undergone a developmental trajectory characterized by classical foundation， refinement of therapeutic methods， systematization of pathogenesis， and modern innovation. The evolution of spleen-stomach theory has achieved a shift from a singular focus on tonifying the spleen to regulating dynamic middle-jiao （焦） balance， and from localized spleen-stomach regulation to the circular movement of qi involving all five zang organs. In terms of modern disease-syndrome integrative research， spleen deficiency syndrome is shown to be closely associated with impairment of the gastrointestinal mucosal barrier， metabolic disorders， and gene polymorphisms related to Helicobacter pylori-associated gastric diseases. Spleen-stomach damp-heat syndrome is closely linked to hyperactive energy metabolism， inflammatory cytokines， and abnormal expression of aquaporins. Liver-spleen disharmony syndrome is mainly associated with dysregulation of the brain-gut axis and microbiota-related metabolic disorders. It is proposed that future research on spleen-stomach diseases and syndromes should further elucidate their potential multidimensional differential biological characteristics， thereby promoting the modernization of the TCM discipline of spleen-stomach studies.

Purpose: The genomic characteristics of uterine sarcomas have not been fully elucidated. This study aimed to explore the genomic landscape of the uterine sarcomas (USs). Materials and Methods: Comprehensive genomic analysis through RNA-sequencing was conducted. Gene fusion, differentially expressed genes (DEGs), signaling pathway enrichment, immune cell infiltration, and prognosis were analyzed. A deep learning model was constructed to predict the survival of US patients. Results: A total of 71 US samples were examined, including 47 endometrial stromal sarcomas (ESS), 18 uterine leiomyosarcomas (uLMS), three adenosarcomas, two carcinosarcomas, and one uterine tumor resembling an ovarian sex-cord tumor. ESS (including high-grade ESS [HGESS] and low-grade ESS [LGESS]) and uLMS showed distinct gene fusion signatures; a novel gene fusion site, MRPS18A–PDC-AS1 could be a potential diagnostic marker for the pathology differential diagnosis of uLMS and ESS; 797 and 477 uterine sarcoma DEGs (uDEGs) were identified in the ESS vs. uLMS and HGESS vs. LGESS groups, respectively. The uDEGs were enriched in multiple pathways. Fifteen genes including LAMB4 were confirmed with prognostic value in USs; immune infiltration analysis revealed the prognositic value of myeloid dendritic cells, plasmacytoid dendritic cells, natural killer cells, macrophage M1, monocytes and hematopoietic stem cells in USs; the deep learning model named Max-Mean Non-Local multi-instance learning (MMN-MIL) showed satisfactory performance in predicting the survival of US patients, with the area under the receiver operating curve curve reached 0.909 and accuracy achieved 0.804. Conclusion USs harbored distinct gene fusion characteristics and gene expression features between HGESS, LGESS, and uLMS. The MMN-MIL model could effectively predict the survival of US patients.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of cold treatment of replacement fluid in continuous blood purification(CBP)of patients with heat stroke.Methods Clinical data of 46 patients with heat stroke who were treated with CBP in Hainan Hospital of PLA General Hospital from July 2018 to September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were assigned to control group(23 cases,conventional treatment for heat stroke and CBP with room temperature replacement fluid)and observation group(23 cases,conventional treatment for heat stroke and CBP with cooling replacement fluid).The body temperatures were compared between the two groups before treatment and 30 min,2 h,6 h,12 h and 24 h after treatment.The prothrombin activity(PTA),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),D-dimer(D-D),fibrinogen(FIB)and platelet count(PLT)before treatment and at 24 h(T1),3 d(T2)and 7 d(T3)after treatment,as well as the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ)score at 7 d after treatment were also compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in temperature or coagulation function between the two groups before treatment(P>0.05).The temperature of the observation group was significantly different from that of the control group at 2 h,6h and 12h after treatment(P<0.05).After treatment,the levels of PTA,FIB and PLT in the observation group at T1,T2 and T3 were higher than those in the control group,while the level of D-D in the observation group was lower than that in the control group,and the APPT at T1 and T2 was significantly shorter than that in the control group(P<0.05).PTA,APPT,D-D,FIB and PLT of the two groups were improved after treatment(P<0.05).Conclusion The cold treatment of replacement fluid can quickly shorten the cooling time of patients with heat stroke during CBP,and significantly improve coagulation function.It is worthy of clinical promotion so as to improve the progrosis of patients with heat strok.

Objective To explore the efficacy of ranibizumab combined with retinal laser photocoagulation in patients with macular edema secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion(BRVO)and its impact on best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA)and central macular thickness(CMT).Methods A prospective analysis was conducted on 70 patients with secondary macular edema caused by BRVO who were admitted to the 901th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force from March 2019 to March 2023.According to the random number table method,the patients were assigned into study group or control group,with 35 cases in each group.The control group was treated with ranibizumab,while the study group was treated with ranibizumab and retinal laser photocoagulation.The efficacy,BCVA,CMT,intraocular pressure,adverse reactions,and 36-item short form health survey(SF-36)score were compared between the two groups.Results There was a significant difference in the efficacy between the two groups(Z=2.272,P<0.05),and the total effective rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).The results of repeated measure ANOVA showed that CMT and intraocular pressure decreased significantly,while BCVA increased significantly in both groups after 3 months,6 months,and 12 months of treatment(P<0.05);moreover,these parameters in the study group were superior to those in the control group(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence of cataracts,transient intraocular pressure elevation,subconjunctival hemorrhage,retinal detachment,or the total incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).After 12 months of treatment,the total score of SF-36 increased in both groups(P<0.05),and the difference value of total score of SF-36 in the study group was superior to that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The combination of ranibizumab and retinal laser photocoagulation can achieve a good therapeutic effect on macular edema caused by BRVO.It can effectively improve BCVA,CMT and intraocular pressure,reduce the risk of adverse reactions,and enhance the quality of life.

Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy of Xiaoshuan enteric-coated capsule (XSECC) in treating cerebral infarction and its potential mechanism of action. Methods: Patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) of the qi deficiency and blood stasis type were randomly assigned to the control and observation groups. They were evaluated using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), Activities of Daily Living (ADL), Hachinskilnchemic Scale (HIS), Barthel Index (BI), clinical efficacy scores, and TCM syndrome scores on days 0, 14, 30, and 90. Furthermore, VEGF and BDNF levels were measured on days 30 and 90. Finally, we analyzed the changes in each scale score and vascular neurological factor in both groups. Results: After 14 days of treatment, the difference values in NIHSS, ADL, and BI were higher, and TCM syndrome and clinical efficacy scores were increased in the observation group compared with those of the control group (all P < .05). After 30 days, the NIHSS, ADL, HIS, and TCM syndrome scores were decreased compared with those of the control group, while BI and clinical efficacy scores were increased (all P < .05). After 90 days, the difference value in ADL was higher, and TCM syndrome score was increased in the observation group compared with that of the control group (P = .047, P = .005, respectively). The levels of VEGF and BDNF were higher in the observation group than in the control group on days 14, 30, and 90 (all P < .05). VEGF and BDNF levels on day 0 were associated with prognosis of patients with AIS; therefore, they have a predictive value for the prognosis of acute cerebral infarction. Conclusions XSECC therapy can improve clinical outcomes in patients with acute and recurrent cerebral infarctions. Its mechanism of action may be associated with the secretion of VEGF and BDNF.

Referring to ZHANG Xichun's experience in treating dysentery from cold-fire accumulation， the treatment of ulcerative colitis （UC） in this paper can be divided into three stages including cold-fire accumulation stage， excessive heat and putrid intestine stage， and healthy qi deficiency and pathogen lingering stage. For people with slippery and excess pulse in the cold-fire accumulation stage， Xiaochengqi Decoction （小承气汤） added with Baishao （Radix Paeoniae Alba） and Gancao （Radix et Rhizoma Glycyrrhizae） can be used for purgation， while those with deficient pulse， Huazhi Decoction （化滞汤） or Xieli Decoction （燮理汤） can be used. In the excessive heat and putrid intestine stage， Tongbian Baitouweng Decoction （通变白头翁汤） and Jiedu Shenghua Elixir （解毒生化丹） are suggested. In the healthy qi deficiency and pathogen lingering stage， it is advised to use Jiedu Shenghua Elixir added with Shanyao （Rhizoma Dioscoreae）， and Sanbao Porridge （三宝粥）. Additionally， the medication rules， dosage and administration characteristics of Huanglian （Rhizoma Coptidis）-Rougui （Cortex Cinnamomi）， Yadanzi （Fructus Bruceae）， Diyu （Radix Sanguisorbae）， Shanyao and Liuhuang （Sulphur） by ZHANG Xichun have been summarized with the help of modern pharmacological research， so as to provide new ideas for the treatment of UC by TCM.

The human gastrointestinal tract is the largest reservoir of bacteria in the body,inhabiting a very complex and active microbial community.Under normal circumstances,the interaction between the intestinal flora and the host maintains a dynamic balance.Spleen deficiency syndrome is a common classic syndrome type in TCM clinical practice.A large number of studies have shown that spleen deficiency syndrome is closely related to intestinal microorganisms,and the balance of intestinal flora is the basis for the normal functioning of the spleen's main transportation and transformation functions.Intestinal flora imbalance can lead to a series of manifestations of spleen deficiency.In addition,intestinal flora is an important medium for the metabolism of polysaccharide components and the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine for invigorating the spleen,and traditional Chinese medicine for invigorating the spleen can also play a therapeutic role by regulating the structure and quantity of intestinal flora.This article summarizes the relationship between intestinal flora and spleen deficiency syndrome in physiology,pathology,and the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine for invigorating the spleen.Based on intestinal flora,the study of spleen deficiency syndrome aims to provide some thoughts and suggestions for revealing the connotation of spleen deficiency syndrome in traditional Chinese medicine.

At present,for acute ischemic stroke patients with onset time within 4.5 hours,intravenous thrombolysis is the preferred method for early reperfusion,but early neurological deterioration is prone to occur within 24 hours after thrombolysis,which is mainly related to the progress of ischemia.Early use of antiplatelet drugs may prevent or improve early neurological deterioration,but traditional antiplatelet drugs have a slow effect and related studies have shown a risk of bleeding.It is recommended to apply after 24 hours.However,24 hours after thrombolysis is a high-risk period for neu-rological deterioration,so it is necessary to find an antiplatelet drug that can be applied within 24 hours.Some studies have found that early use of tirofiban after intravenous thrombolysis can prevent early neurological deterioration.At the same time,for patients who have already experienced earlyneurological deterioration,the use of tirofiban can effectively improve their long-term prognosis.This article will elaborate on the research progress of the application of tirofiban in the prevention and treatment of early neurological deterioration after intravenous thrombolysis.
