Objective To explore the biological basis of TCM syndromes from a biomolecules network perspective with qi deficiency syndrome as the breakthrough point. Methods A data dictionary of neuro-endocrine-immune (NEI) related genes and qi deficiency syndrome characterization terminology thesaurus were established. Literature about qi deficiency syndrome characterization was retrieved by using Genclip, to excavate the characteristic NEI gene, thereby to explore different bioactive substances of syndromes. Results The analysis of the genetic data, showed qi deficiency related cluster with the relevance of endocrine, signal transduction, hematopoietic cell and immune deficiencies etc. It is confirmed that the intrinsic biological features of TCM syndrome can effectively identify in the NEI level. Conclusion Literature mining method as a new way to discover syndromes biological indicators has certain feasibility, and it is recommended to be further expanded into other studies on syndromes to validate the universality and reliability of this method.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of needling Danzhong(CV 17) in the treatment of postpartum hypogalactia and provide clinical evidence for indications of the point. Methods: A multi-centre single-blind randomized controlled trial was carried out. Two hundred and seventy-six puerperal women with postpartum hypogalactia were randomly allocated into acupuncture group and herb group, and respectively treated for three consecutive days. The degree of mammary fullness, the amount of milk secreted, prolactin, baby weight, the frequency and volume of artificial feeding, the number of infant urination events, and the duration of baby crying were observed. The clinical curative effects on postpartum hypogalactia were compared. Results: Hypogalactia was effectively treated in both acupuncture and herb groups. There were statistically significant differences in degree of mammary fullness, amount of milk secreted, baby weight, the frequency and amount of artificial feeding, and the number of infant urination events between pretreatment and post-treatment, but no difference between the two groups. There was no significant difference in prolactin in the acupuncture group and there was a difference in prolactin in the herb group between pretreatment and posttreatment. Conclusion: Needling Danzhong(CV 17) can effectively promote lactation.

Objective:To compare the results of operative versus interventional treatments in patients presenting with sentinel hemorrhage after hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery.Methods:The clinical data of patients presenting with sentinel hemorrhage after hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery at the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from August 2017 to July 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Of 82 patients who were enrolled in this study, there were 50 males and 32 females, aged (59.0±7.7) years. The patients were divided into the interventional group ( n=42) and the surgical group ( n=40) based on the treatment they received for sentinel hemorrhage. The vascular injury rate, the first operation time for sentinel bleeding, the rate of successful hemostasis in a single operation, the number of deaths and other indicators were compared between groups. Results:In both the two groups of patients who underwent percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage, hepatectomy, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, hilar cholangiocarcinoma resection and cholecystectomy were mainly performed hepatic artery injury, pancreaticoduodenectomy with gastroduodenal artery injury, and splenectomy with splenic artery injury. In the intervention group, 36 patients (85.7%) were successfully hemostasis after single treatment, and 32 patients (80.0%) in the operation group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (χ 2=0.47, P=0.492). The first operation time for the intervention group was (40.5±8.5) min and the mortality rate was 2.4% (1/42), which were significantly better than that of the operation group (90.6±20.8) min and 15.0% (6/40) (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Interventional therapy can be used as the first-line diagnosis and treatment for sentinel bleeding after hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery. It has the advantages of a lower mortality rate in treating these patients.

Objective:To evaluate the accuracy of the domestic "Skywalker" surgical robot in implementing personalized lower limb alignment reconstruction scheme in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and the short-term clinical outcome of robotic assisted TKA.Methods:From September 2020 to January 2021, the data of patients who received surgical robot assisted TKA in 5 clinical centers in China (Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Southwest Hospital affiliated to Third Military Medical University, The Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University, The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University and Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital, and Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine was the group leader) were prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed. There were 24 males and 82 females with an average age of 67.6±7.3 years, (range 45-80 years); Average body mass index 26.42±4.31 kg/m 2, all the operation were performed by "Skywalker" surgical robot system according to preoperative design based on CT. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization days and postoperative complications were recorded, and the imaging indexes including hip-knee-ankle (HKA), lateral distal angle of femur (LDFA) and medial proximal angle of tibia (MPTA) measured before and after the operation, implant model indexes (preoperative planning implant model and postoperative implant model) and short-term clinical efficacy indexes [Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) osteoarthritis index] pain score, stiffness score, joint function score, total score and SF-12 score before and 3 months after the operation) were compared. Results:The average follow-up period was 109.60±9.80 d, (range 95-143 d). The average operation time of 106 patients was 105.30±23.22 min; The average intraoperative blood loss was 141.70±58.33 ml; The average length of hospitalization was 5.82±2.80 d. One patient had ischemic stroke after operation, and one patient had abnormal liver function after operation. According to the judgment of the investigator, all of them were not related to the operation. The actual angle error is the difference between the preoperative planning angle and the postoperative measurement angle. The absolute error of 99.1% (105/106) of the HKA angle was within 3°, 90.8% (69/76) of LDFA, 98.7% (75/76) of the MPTA. In 45 patients in one center where data were available, the actual implant models used in all patients were consistent with the preoperative planning size, and there were only differences in version selection such as Asian condyle. WOMAC pain score, joint function score, total score was improved from 7.34±2.85, 25.10±9.85, 34.75±13.02 to 3.34±2.66, 14.68±9.64, 18.66±13.49 before and after operation, respectively, which were statistically significant ( P<0.001) and SF-12 physiological score and psychological score were improved form 27.24±6.42, 30.68±8.26 to 38.83±5.74, 39.36±7.85 before and after operation, respectively, which were statistically significant ( t=7.33, P<0.001; t=4.53, P=0.043). Conclusion:Domestic surgical robot system "Skywalker" can assist the surgeon to achieve accurate and personalized reconstruction of lower limb alignment and achieve satisfactory short-term clinical outcomes. The long-term clinical outcomes of personalized reconstruction and survival rate of implant still need to be further studied.
