Abstract Modern western medicine typically focuses on treating specific symptoms or diseases, and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) emphasizes the interconnections of the body’s various systems under external environment and takes a holistic approach to preventing and treating diseases. Phenomics was initially introduced to the field of TCM in 2008 as a new discipline that studies the laws of integrated and dynamic changes of human clinical phenomes under the scope of the theories and practices of TCM based on phenomics. While TCM Phenomics 1.0 has initially established a clinical phenomic system centered on Zhenghou (a TCM definition of clinical phenome), bottlenecks remain in data standardization, mechanistic interpretation, and precision intervention. Here, we systematically elaborates on the theoretical foundations, technical pathways, and future challenges of integrating digital medicine with TCM phenomics under the framework of “TCM phenomics 2.0”, which is supported by digital medicine technologies such as artificial intelligence, wearable devices, medical digital twins, and multi-omics integration. This framework aims to construct a closed-loop system of “Zhenghou–Phenome–Mechanism–Intervention” and to enable the digitization, standardization, and precision of disease diagnosis and treatment. The integration of digital medicine and TCM phenomics not only promotes the modernization and scientific transformation of TCM theory and practice but also offers new paradigms for precision medicine. In practice, digital tools facilitate multi-source clinical data acquisition and standardization, while AI and big data algorithms help reveal the correlations between clinical Zhenghou phenomes and molecular mechanisms, thereby improving scientific rigor in diagnosis, efficacy evaluation, and personalized intervention. Nevertheless, challenges persist, including data quality and standardization issues, shortage of interdisciplinary talents, and insufficiency of ethical and legal regulations. Future development requires establishing national data-sharing platforms, strengthening international collaboration, fostering interdisciplinary professionals, and improving ethical and legal frameworks. Ultimately, this approach seeks to build a new disease identification and classification system centered on phenomes and to achieve the inheritance, innovation, and modernization of TCM diagnostic and therapeutic patterns.

Conclusion:The ventilation facilities of the inspection workshop are set up in the airflow organization mode of sending up and down the exhaust, and the ventilation pipes are scientifically designed through the calculation of ventilation hydraulic balance, which can effectively control the concentration of harmful gases in the inspection workshop.

Objective To investigate the expression level and clinical application value of serum resistin in patients with systemic lu-pus erythematosus(SLE).Methods Forty-five SLE patients visited Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital,Clinical College of Nanjing Uni-versity of Chinese Medicine from January to August 2023 were enrolled in the study.The patients were scored and grouped according to the SLE disease activity index(SLEDAI),with SLEDAI＜9 score in the inactive group(n=32)and SLEDAI≥9 score in the active group(n=13).Thirty-four healthy individuals who underwent physical examination in our hospital were recruited as healthy controls.The clinical data and laboratory related indicators such as urine protein and serum complement C3 levels were collected from SLE pa-tients and healthy controls.Serum resistin levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The clinical screening value of serum resistin for SLE was evaluated with the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.The correlations of serum resistin levels with different laboratory indicators were determined by Pearson correlation analysis.Results The serum resistin levels in SLE patients([7.64±0.64]ng/mL)were significantly higher than that in healthy controls([2.56±0.43]ng/mL),and the difference was statistically significant(t=6.195,P＜0.01).The serum resistin levels in active SLE patients([10.10±1.45]ng/mL)were significant-ly higher than that in inactive SLE patients([6.64±0.60]ng/mL),and the difference was statistically significant(t=2.632,P＜0.05).The area under the ROC curve(AUCROC)of serum resistin for screening SLE was 0.897.When the cut-off value was 5.893 ng/mL,the sensitivity was 86.67%and the specificity was 82.35%.The serum resistin level in SLE patients was positively correlated with urine protein(r=0.692,P＜0.01),while negatively correlated with serum complement C3(r=-0.354,P＜0.05).Conclusion The expression levels of serum resistin in SLE patients are significantly increased and positively correlated with SLE disease activity and urine protein.Serum resistin may become a novel biomarker for the diagnosis and therapeutic effect assessment of SLE.

Objective:To determine incidence of seasonal influenza virus infection in the community and to analyze the factors influencing seasonal influenza virus infection.Methods:This study recruited residents aged 6-59 years to build a cohort in 15 villages/streets in Macheng city in November 2019. Meanwhile, a cross-sectional baseline survey was conducted immediately to collect sera, information on demographics and child protection knowledge, behaviors, as well as attitudes using a questionnaire from the participants enrolled in the cohort (i.e., before the influenza epidemic season). In July 2020, a cross-sectional follow-up survey was conducted to collect sera once again (i.e., after the influenza season). Paired sera from the two cross-sectional surveys were tested for influenza virus-specific antibodies by hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test or micro-neutralization (MN) test using a circulating representative strain of each subtype/lineage of influenza virus as the test antigen. The infections with influenza virus subtype/lineage was confirmed if there was a four-fold or more increase in titers of antibodies against circulating representative strain of the subtype/lineage of influenza virus. Factors influencing infection with influenza A (H3N2) and B/Victoria viruses were analyzed using univariable and multivariable logistic regression.Results:In November 2019, 800 study participants were enrolled in the cohort, including 340 children aged 6-17 years and 460 adults aged 18-59 years; 605 study participants (including 224 children and 381 adults) were followed up in July 2020 and their paired sera were obtained before and after the influenza season. 25.3% (153/605) of the participants were confirmed to be infected with at least one subtype/lineage of seasonal influenza virus by HI and MN tests. The overall incidence of influenza viruses of all subtypes/lineages in children was 44.2% (95% CI: 37.6%-50.8%) which was significantly higher than the incidence of 14.1% in adults (95% CI: 10.7%-17.7%). Children had the highest incidence of influenza A (H3N2) virus infection, followed by B/Victoria. MN or HI antibody titers in A (H3N2)[ OR=0.88 (95% CI: 0.84-0.93)] and B/Victoria[ OR=0.97 (95% CI: 0.95-0.99)] before the influenza season were significantly associated with whether children were infected with that subtype/lineage of influenza virus. Conclusions:The residents aged 6-59 years in Macheng city had a substantial incidence of seasonal influenza virus infection during the influenza season from winter 2019 to spring 2020. Notably, almost half of children aged 6-17 years have been infected with seasonal influenza virus. Higher titers of HI/MN antibodies against seasonal influenza virus before the influenza season would be likely to reduce the risk of infection with influenza A (H3N2) and B/Victoria.

Purpose To investigate the expression of TRPS1 in synovial sarcoma(SS)and its significance.Methods Twenty-one cases of synovial sarcoma diagnosed by SS1 8(18q11)(SYT)fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH)or SS18-SSX immunohistochemistry were collected.The expression of TRPS1 was detected by immunohistochemistry EnVision two-step staining,and the relevant literature was reviewed.Results There were 21 cases of synovial sarcoma,including 9 females and 12 males,aged 17-79 years,with a median age of 50 years and an average age of 47.1 years.The tumors occurred in the lung(3 cases),legs(3 cases),kidney(3 cases),feet(2 cases),psoas major muscle(2 cases),rectum(1 case),tho-racic cavity(1 case),ankle canal(1 case),inguinal area(1 case),knee(1 case),palm(1 case),nasal cavity(1 case),and forearm(1 case).The maximum diameter of the tumor was 1.2-13 cm.Grossly,the tumor section was grayish-white,grayish-yellowish solid,and the lesion with hemorrhage was dark red.Microscopically,there were monophasic fibrous SS(16/21,76.2％),poorly differential SS(small cell)(3/21,14.3％),and biphasic SS(2/21,9.5％).Immunophenotypi-cally,tumor cells expressed SS18-SSX(18/18,100％),TLE1(12/12,100％),BCL2(18/18,100％),partially expressed EMA(10/16,62.5％),CK(12/18,66.7％),CD99(4/10,40.0％),SMA(3/16,18.6％),S-100(3/19,15.8％),and desmin(0/21).The proliferation index of Ki67 ranged from 3％-80％,with an average of 39.9％.FISH test showed that all 11 cases were positive for SS18(18q11)split-ting.All 21 cases of SS expressed TRPS1 to varying degrees and intensities(21/21,100％),of which 19 cases(19/21,90.5％)had a positive range of＞50％.There were 19 cases(19/21,90.5％)with a positive intensity of 2+or above.All the 21 patients underwent surgical resection of the tumor,and 20 patients received follow-up visits.3 patients treated with postop-erative combination of radiotherapy and chemotherapy,18 pa-tients treated with postoperative chemotherapy,and 7 patients showed different degrees of recurrence or metastasis,and 9 pa-tients who received follow-up visits died(45％,9/20).Con-clusion Although TRPS1 is regarded as a highly sensitive and specific marker of breast tumor origin,it is also highly expressed in synovial sarcoma,and it is necessary to be vigilant at its pit-falls in the pathological diagnosis.

Objective:To evaluate the prognosis of patients with primary thyroid malignant lymphoma (PTL) treated with total thyroidectomy alone or in combination with R-CHOP chemotherapy, and analyze the factors influencing their prognosis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 62 patients with PTL admitted to the Hematology Department of Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from Jan. 2009 to Jan. 2020. The patients were with an average age of (63.51±9.83) years, with 20 males and 42 females. According to Ann Arbor staging and patients' wishes, 10 cases received simple thyroidectomy, 47 cases received total thyroidectomy +R-CHOP, and 5 cases received total thyroidectomy +R-CHOP+ radiotherapy. After 3 months of treatment, the short-term curative effect was collected. According to the prognosis of patients after 24 months of follow-up, the dead cases were classified into bad group and the surviving cases into good group. Single factor and LASSO regression dimensionality reduction were used to screen the influencing factors, and Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of PTL prognosis.Results:Among 62 patients with PTL, 21 (33.87%) had complete response (CR), 27 (43.55%) had partial response (PR), 9 (14.52%) had stable disease (SD), and 5 (8.06%) had progressive disease (PD). After a follow-up of 24 months, the mortality rate among 10 patients who underwent surgical treatment alone was 90% (9/10), the mortality rate among those who underwent surgical treatment combined with R-CHOP therapy was 19.15% (9/47) ,18 deaths were categorized as having a poor prognosis, while 44 survivors were classified as having a favorable prognosis.Univariate, LASSO regression screening, and Logistic regression analysis showed that Ann Arbor staging ( OR=5.105), pathological type ( OR=3.622), international prognostic index (IPI) score ( OR=2.709), treatment method ( OR=0.730), hemoglobin ( OR=0.392), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) ( OR=6.469) were factors affecting the prognosis of PTL (all P<0.05) . Conclusions:The combined use of total resection and R-CHOP treatment for patients has a superior prognosis compared to patients undergoing total resection alone. Furthermore, the prognosis of patients is also influenced by factors such as Ann Arbor staging and IPI scoring. Based on this, clinical care plans can be refined to improve the prognosis.

Endodontic diseases are a kind of chronic infectious oral disease.Common endodontic treatment concepts are based on the removal of inflamed or necrotic pulp tissue and the replacement by gutta-percha.However,it is very essential for endodontic treatment to debride the root canal system and prevent the root canal system from bacterial reinfection after root canal therapy(RCT).Recent research,encompassing bacterial etiology and advanced imaging techniques,contributes to our understanding of the root canal system's anatomy intricacies and the technique sensitivity of RCT.Success in RCT hinges on factors like patients,infection severity,root canal anatomy,and treatment techniques.Therefore,improving disease management is a key issue to combat endodontic diseases and cure periapical lesions.The clinical difficulty assessment system of RCT is established based on patient conditions,tooth conditions,root canal configuration,and root canal needing retreatment,and emphasizes pre-treatment risk assessment for optimal outcomes.The findings suggest that the presence of risk factors may correlate with the challenge of achieving the high standard required for RCT.These insights contribute not only to improve education but also aid practitioners in treatment planning and referral decision-making within the field of endodontics.

Objective To compare the short-term efficacy and safety of low temperature plasma radiofre-quence ablation(LA)vs.high voltage long duration pulsed radiofrequency(HL-PRF)in the treatment of cervico-genic headache(CEH).Methods Eighty patients with cervicogenic headache were divided two groups:one treated with low temperature plasma radiofrequence ablation group as group L(n = 50)and the other treated with high voltage long duration pulsed radiofrequency group as group H(n = 30).The two groups were compared in terms of the score by the Visual Analog Scale,score by the Range of Motion Scale,postoperative pain relief rate,postop-erative complication incidence,1,4,12,and 24 weeks after the operation,as well as the therapeutic effectiveness and safety.Results Both groups showed significantly lower VAS and ROM scores after operation(P<0.05).Compared with group L,group H had significantly lower VAS(all P<0.05)but insignificantly lower ROM scores(all P>0.05)at each time point.At T4,group H had significantly higher therapeutic effectiveness rate(P<0.05)and higher incidence of scalp numbness at T3,as compared to group L(P<0.05).Conclusion The low tempera-ture plasma radiofrequency ablation and high voltage long duration pulsed radiofrequency both are effective and safe in the treatment of CEH,the latter approach can achieve better therapeutic effectiveness 24 weeks after the operation than the former.
