Objective To estimate heart function among patients with diabetic foot ulcer,and to investigate the characteristics of heart failure(HF) before and after treatment of ulcer. Methods Items associated with diabetes and some physiological and biochemical indicators were observed in patients with diabetic foot ulcer(162 cases) and with high risk factors of ulcer(75 cases). Heart function was evaluated at patients′ admission, during ulcer related treatment, and prior to discharge. Left ventricular ejection fraction and other cardiac assessment were measured with ultrasonic scan.Results During hospitalization, 23.6%(56/237) patients underwent HF with normal left ventricular ejection fraction, and it was 27.2%(44/162) in patients with foot ulcers. The prevalence of HF was 8.9%(21/237) in all patients studied on admission, and that was 10.5%(17/162) in patients with foot ulcer, more than that without foot ulcer(P<0.01). More patients with HF were found, being 14.8%(35/237) during 2-7 days after ulcer related treatment initiated, and peak was on the 4th day. There was statistical difference among different Wagner grades(P<0.05) about the morbidity rate of HF. All patients with HF were improved and tolerant to ulcer related treatment. Conclusion The prevalence of HF with normal left ventricular ejection fraction was relatively high in patients with diabetic foot ulcer, especially after ulcer treatment.

Uyghur medicine has not yet had the clinical research guidelines consistent with Uyghur medicine theory for its new medicine. In this research, retrospective multi-center study on medical records of Uyghur medicine diagnosis and treatment program of stable angina was conducted. Data about demography, diagnostics, therapeutics, efficacy evaluation, and nursing were collated and analyzed. Uyghur medicine syndrome diagnosis indicators and their contribution to stable angina were identified, and Uyghur medicine syndrome differentiation criteria were established. Uyghur medicine established its primary and secondary disease syndrome and its symptoms quantization table entries for the syndrome elements of Uyghur medicine syndrome differentiation criteria. Then combined with symptoms of angina and ECG changes, nitroglycerin stop and decrement rate, evaluation criteria for the efficacy of disease symptom combination were established. On this basis, in accordance with the technical requirements of the national new medicine evaluation, the study developed clinical research guidelines for the treatment of stable angina with new Uyghur medicine.

World Science and Technology-Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2017;19(7):1083-1088
Lung cancer is the highest mortality rate of malignancies in the world.Among them,non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 85%.Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene is one of the most common driving genes in NSCLC.The EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) bring a breakthrough in the treatment for patients with EGFR gene-sensitive mutations.However,the drug resistance problem of EGFR-TKIs has been increasingly highlighted.So a drug for the patients accompanied by EGFR T790M positive mutation and along with progression in or after treatment with EGFR-TKI NSCLC is clinically urgent needed.Rociletinib is designed to address this unmet clinical need.While considering the non-superior effectiveness to the similar drugs in the market and the high risk of safety (hyperglycemia,QT prolongation and sudden death) of Rociletinib,the dosage was not accepted by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).And Rociletinib did not make it to the market eventually.This paper discussed lessons learned from this case under review perspective for reference and inspiration.

In recent years, adaptive design has gradually emerged in clinical trials, gaining widespread application and expansion. Compared with traditional randomized controlled trials, appropriate adaptive design can save time and resources to some extent, improve the validity of the trial results and strength of the evidence, align better with ethical requirements, and facilitate subsequent drug market research. However, due to the greater flexibility of adaptive design, controlling type Ⅰ error rates and truly enhancing research efficiency are challenging aspects of its application. Therefore, the normative application and optimization of adaptive design in research deserve early focus, including adhering to good adaptive design principles, conducting rigorous pre-design planning, scientifically applying various statistical methods such as Bayesian dynamic models and simulation methods, and utilizing monitoring tools like monitoring committees to ensure the scientific integrity of the research process. Moreover, the flexibility of adaptive design aligns well with the practical realities of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) clinical practice. The main characteristics of TCM, such as the holistic concept and treatment based on syndrome differentiation, determine that TCM provides a dynamic and personalized treatment plan. In contrast, the traditional fixed development approach of western medicine limits the application of "human experience" in TCM. To address this bottleneck in TCM research and development, the innovative use of adaptive design, a modern scientific theory and methodology with multiplicity and variability, offers a feasible new approach for TCM clinical research and the innovation of Chinese herbal medicine. By learning from successful cases such as the first Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved oral botanical drug, Crofelemer, researchers can explore optimal solutions for adaptive design in clinical research protocols and its role in the "three-combination" evaluation system for Chinese herbal medicines, further refine trial design, clarify key trial points, and develop innovative research and development applications that adapt to the clinical positioning of TCM and highlight the characteristics and advantages of TCM, paving the way for the clinical efficacy, pharmacological mechanism exploration, and post-market efficacy evaluation of Chinese herbal compounds.

The advent of digital times promotes the evolution of clinical research from traditional mode to digital mode. Digital technologies, which are introduced to clinical research of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), can optimize the research design, improve research quality, and save research funds and time. The digital and remote control of clinical research recruitment and screening, disease diagnosis and treatment, informed consent, indicator measurement, and other processes can be realized by computers, networks, sensors, and other technologies. Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, wearable monitoring devices, data management tools, blockchain, and virtual clinical trials (VCTs) are key innovation technologies and research design methods. On this basis, this study summarized relevant literature on key digital technologies and research methods such as AI algorithms, wearable monitoring devices, data management tools, blockchain, and VCT, and the following discoveries were obtained: The future development of clinical research of TCM requires to attach importance to the changes in clinical research brought by digital technologies and to promote the utilization of digital technologies in clinical research of TCM. Digital technologies realize the medical ethical ideas of ''putting people first'', promote the decentralization of clinical research, simplify the participation process of participants, reduce the time and cost of clinical research, improve the efficiency of clinical research of TCM, and enhance the objectivity, authenticity, and stability of clinical research of TCM. Deepening the application of digital technologies in clinical research and realizing the interaction and fusion of various digital technologies are inevitable trends of future development of clinical research of TCM. Under the background of digitization, the digital innovation of clinical research of TCM can accelerate the development of clinical research of TCM and promote the internationalization of TCM.
