Donguibogam was introduced from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) instead of the local representa-tive work of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK). It is also the concrete manifestation of theories of different schools of doctors according to Dr. Xu Jun's medical thoughts. In this paper, from Dr. Xu's advocacy to Taoism and the concept of aftercare spirit, the exploration was made on health cultivation for different body constitu-tions. According to the health cultivation effects of the medicinals and edible food, the focus was made on the sys-tematic collation and induction of more than 1 400 kinds of herbs contained in the soup liquid from papers in three volumes. The medicinals were divided into eight categories, which were benefiting qi, nourishing yin, tonifying yang, clearing heat and promoting dieresis, drying dampness and resolving phlegm, promoting blood circulation for remov-ing blood stasis, dispersing stagnated liver qi, nourishing blood for hemostasis. Donguibogam specified the health cultivation concept from the correspondence between the body constitution and the medicinal performance. It has a certain guiding significance to the current health cultivation.

ObjectiveTo investigate and compare the behavioral changes, neuron loss of hippocampus and mossy fiber sprouting between pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus (SE) model and pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) kindling model in rats.MethodsAfter two different epilepsy models were made, Vedio was adopted to observe the behavioral changes. Nissl staining and Neo-timms' staining were separately used to observe and compare the neuron loss of hippocampus and mossy fiber sprouting in the dentate gyrus (DG) at different time points during epileptogenisis.ResultsNo recurrent spontaneous seizure, no neuron loss and no mossy fiber sprouting were found in PTZ kindling model; whereas obvious neuron loss was found in CA1, CA3 of hippocampus and hilus of DG, and mossy fiber sprouting were found in pilocarpine model in parallel with recurrent spontaneous seizures. ConclusionPTZ kindling model resembles absence epilepsy in human, while pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus model resembles chronic temporal epilepsy in human. Neuron loss and mossy fiber sprouting may play an important role in epileptogenisis. Pilocarpine-induced epilepsy model can be regarded as an ideal chronic temporal epilepsy model.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of precise mechanical thrombectomy based on ABC 2D scale in acute intracranial large artery occlusion stroke (ALVOs). Methods:A prospective study was performed. Two hundred and two patients with ALVOs accepted early mechanical thrombectomy in Department of Neurology, Maoming Clinical School of Guangdong Medical University from January 2021 to February 2022 were enrolled. They were randomly divided into experimental group ( n=102) and control group ( n=100). Stent retriever partially retracted with intermediate catheter for mechanical thrombectomy (SWIM) was the first choice for patients in control group. ABC 2D scale was used to prejudge the pathogenesis of patients in experimental group: patients with scores of 0-3 were considered as having embolic occlusion and a direct aspiration first pass technique (ADAPT) was the first choice, and SWIM would be chosen if suction catheter could not be in place; patients with scores of 4-7 were considered as having intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis occlusion and SWIM was the first choice. The clinical data, surgical effectiveness, surgical safety, and good prognosis rate 90 d after mechanical thrombectomy (modified Rankin scale scores of 0-2 as good prognosis) of the 2 groups were compared. Results:Experimental group had significantly shorter time from puncture to recanalization (51.0[35.0, 78.5] min vs. 67.0[45.0, 100.0] min), and statistically lower NIHSS scores 24 h after mechanical thrombectomy (10.00[4.75, 16.25] vs. 13.00[8.00, 19.00]), significantly higher good prognosis rate 90 d after mechanical thrombectomy (69.6% vs. 46.0%), statistically lower mortality 90 d after mechanical thrombectomy (3.9% vs. 13.0%) compared with control group ( P<0.05). No significant differences were noted in first-pass effect rate, successful vascular revascularization rate, or incidences of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and ectopic embolization between the control group and experimental group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Patients with ALVOs accepted early mechanical thrombectomy can have shorter time from puncture to vascular recanalization and better prognosis after etiologically prejudging by ABC 2D scale for thrombectomy.

This paper summarized the experience of fire needling combined with black cloth ointment in the treatment of keloid. In terms of the pathogenesis of keloid， it is believed that "phlegm causes stasis， and then stasis accumulates into tumors" is the key； the internal obstruction of phlegm and stasis caused by insufficient endowment and invasion of external pathogens is the root of the disease， while the endogenous generation of phlegm and dampness is the branch. It is therefore proposed to explore the etiology and pathogenesis of keloid from the perspective of "phlegm-stasis-tumor"， and the treatment principle is mainly to eliminate phlegm， dispel stasis and dissolve tumors， supplemented with heat-clearing and toxin-resolving. Treatment methods include oral administration of Chinese herbal medicinals and external treatment. Self-made formula for keloid is taken orally， with the main functions of dissolving phlegm， dispelling stasis and clearing heat， to finally dissolve the tumors. For external treatment， fire needling is used to pierce the skin and to open the striae and interstices， and force out the toxin pathogens such as phlegm-heat and stasis-heat with fire power， thereby clearing heat， dissolving phlegm， dispelling stasis and resolving toxins. Black cloth ointment can be used to the affected area to unblock meridians and collaterals， clear heat-toxin and dissolve phlegm-stasis， thereby softening hardness and dissipating masses.
