The concept of "qi deficiency with stagnation" refers to a pathological state characterized by the depletion of primordial qi， impaired qi transformation， and the development of internal stagnation. Under the cyclic chemotherapy regimen in oncology， chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression follows a progressive pathological course from qi deficiency to increasing stagnation. This sequential evolution from mild to severe myelosuppression closely aligns with the dynamic syndrome differentiation and treatment framework of "qi deficiency with stagnation". "Qi deficiency" reflects the gradual depletion of qi， blood， and essence， while "stagnation" refers to the accumulation of phlegm， turbid dampness， and blood stasis. These two components interact reciprocally， forming a vicious cycle where deficiency leads to stagnation， and stagnation further damages the healthy qi. In the early stage of mild myelosuppression， chemotoxicity begins to accumulate in the bone marrow， leading to qi consumption， blood deficiency， yin injury， and the gradual formation of turbid phlegm and damp stagnation. In the advanced stage of severe myelosuppression， the accumulation of toxicity causes qi sinking， exhaustion of essence， and marrow depletion， along with blood stasis obstructing the collaterals. Treatment strategies should be based on syndrome differentiation， with an emphasis on assessing the severity of the condition， balancing deficiency and excess， and achieving both symptomatic relief and root cause resolution.

Pelvic acetabular fractures(PAFs)are one of the most common types of pelvic fractures,mostly high-energy injuries,with complex pelvic acetabular structure and limited surgical methods.The trauma of the acetabular fracture itself and the need for long-term bed rest after surgery cause particularly complicated clinical complications.Venous thromboembolism(VTE)is one of its high incidence and serious complications.This review mainly focuses on VTE after PAFs,and describes the epidemiology,risk factors and prevention measures of VTE,aiming to help improve the prognosis and avoid the occurrence of serious complications.

Objective To explore the effectiveness and safety of percutaneous coronary artery shock wave balloon angioplasty(IVL)under the guidance of intravascular ultrasound(IVUS)for the treatment of severe calcification lesions in the left main artery(LM).Methods A total of 26 patients with severe LM(mouth,body,bifurcation)calcification admitted to Jiangnan University Affiliated Hospital from October 2022 to April 2024 were included,with an average age of 72.0(61.8,75.4)years.Under the guidance of IVUS,IVL was used for pre-treatment of calcified lesions,followed by percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with stent/drug balloon implantation.All patients were evaluated using IVUS before and after the use of IVL and after PCI.And compare the IVUS intracavity related data before and after treatment[plaque burden(PB)、minimum lumen area(MLA)、minimum lumen diameter(MLD)]and calcification fracture number,minimum stent area(MSA),stent expansion coefficient(expansion,EXP),etc.Results There were 26 patients(2 with opening lesions,7 with body lesions,and 17 with bifurcation lesions at the end of the main trunk),including 7 with stable angina pectoris(SAP),10 with unstable angina(UA),4 with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI),and 5 with non ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(NSTEMI).The PB at the most severe site of calcification decreased by 79.50(76.00,83.75)％compared to 80.00(76.00,83.75)％after IVL(P=0.001),MLA increased by 3.39(3.14,3.68)mm2 compared to 3.38(3.14,3.67)mm2 after IVL(P=0.039),MLD increased by 3.21(3.07,3.30)mm compared to 3.20(3.07,3.30)mm after IVL(P=0.024),and there was 100％calcification rupture(1/2 cases,2/9 cases,≥3/15 cases).The stent/drug ball was successfully implanted 100％,with EXP of(89.15±4.42)％and an MSA of 7.20(6.46,7.45)mm2.No adverse events such as death,angina or recurrent myocardial infarction occurred during the 3 months follow-up after surgery.Conclusions After evaluation by IVUS and pre-treatment with IVL,PCI was successfully completed for severe calcification lesions in LM,and IVL can be used as an option for the treatment of severe calcification in LM.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of Kirschner wire fixation combined with Suture-Bridge technique and simple Kirschner wire fixation in the treatment of old lateral malleolar avulsion fractures under all-inside arthroscopy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 56 patients with old lateral malleolar avulsion fractures, admitted at Xuzhou Central Hospital from January 2018 to June 2022, including 32 males (32 feet) and 24 females (24 feet), aged 19-57 years [(35.2±11.1)years]. Twenty-five patients were treated with Kirschner wire fixation under all-inside arthroscopy (K-wire group), while the other 31 patients were treated with Kirschner wire fixation combined with Suture-Bridge technique under all-inside arthroscopy (K-wire combined with suture group). The surgical time, incision healing at 2 weeks after surgery, and fracture healing rate at 6 months after surgery of the two groups were detected. The American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot scores, and foot and ankle ability measure (FAAM) scores [including activities of daily living (ADL) scores and sports function (S) scores] of the two groups were assessed before surgery, at 3, 6 months after surgery, and at the last follow-up. The anterior drawer test was performed at 3, 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up. The time of return to sports after surgery and complication rates were also recorded.Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-18 months [(14.2±2.2)months]. The surgical time in the K-wire combined with suture group was (56.3±12.5)minutes, longer than (41.1±8.2)minutes in the K-wire group ( P<0.01). The incisions in both groups were healed by first intention at 2 weeks after surgery. In the K-wire combined with suture group, all the fractures were healed at 6 months after surgery (100%), while in the K-wire group 22 patients (88%) obtained fracture healing ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scores, FAAM-ADL scores, or FAAM-S scores between the two groups preoperatively ( P>0.05). At 3, 6 months after surgery, and at the last follow-up, the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scores in the K-wire combined with suture group were (89.7±3.4)points, (92.8±2.8)points, and (94.9±3.3)points respectively, higher than (87.4±4.4)points, (90.4±4.1)points, and (92.5±4.6)points in the K-wire group ( P<0.05); the FAAM-ADL scores and the FAAM-S scores in the K-wire combined with suture group were (90.1±3.5)points, (91.5±2.9)points, (92.8±3.0)points and (91.4±5.4)points, (92.8±5.0)points, (94.4±4.8)points respectively, higher than (86.8±5.0)points, (88.7±3.8)points, (90.3±3.7)points and (88.0±5.3)points, (89.5±4.8)points, (91.5±5.2)points ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scores, FAAM-ADL scores, and FAAM-S scores at all postoperative time points were higher than those preoperatively and increased with the passage of the follow-up time ( P<0.01). The results of the anterior drawer test at all postoperative time points in the two groups were negative. The time of return to sports after surgery in the K-wire combined with suture group was (9.2±1.3)weeks, shorter than (10.3±1.5)weeks in the K-wire group ( P<0.01). One patient (3.2%) in the K-wire combined with suture group and 3 patients (12.0%) in the K-wire group had Kirschner wire loosening and withdrawal ( P>0.05). Neither of the two groups developed complications such as nerve or tendon injuries. Conclusion:Compared with simple Kirschner wire fixation under all-inside arthroscopy, Kirschner wire fixation combined with Suture-Bridge technique under all-inside arthroscopy achieves higher fracture healing rate, more obvious improvement in life quality and ankle function, as well as earlier return to sports in the treatment of old lateral malleolar avulsion fractures.

Objective To explore the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome elements in patients with multi-drug resistant bacteria-infected pneumonia.Methods Clinical data of 126 patients with multi-drug resistant bacteria-infected pneumonia admitted to the intensive care unit of Lung Disease Centre of Qingdao Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from May 2020 to July 2022 were retrospectively collected.The clinical data included the patients'gender,age,underlying diseases,history of bad additions of smoking and alcohol,multi-drug resistant bacteria,and the information of four diagnostic methods of TCM,etc.The disease-nature syndrome elements in patients with drug-resistance to various strains of drug-resistant bacteria were extracted,and then deficiency-excess syndrome differentiation was carried out.Results(1)A total of 201 strains of multi-drug resistant bacteria were detected in 126 patients with multi-drug resistant bacterial pneumonia.The main pathogenic species were Gram-negative bacteria,and the proportion accounted for 95.52%(192/201),which was significantly higher than that of Gram-positive bacteria[4.48%(9/201)],with a statistically significant difference(χ2 = 166.612,P＜0.001).Klebsiella pneumoniae accounted for the highest percentage of 23.38%in the gram-negative bacterium.(2)A total of 12 syndrome elements were extracted from the 126 patients.The excess syndrome elements were predominated by phlegm and heat,and the deficiency syndrome elements were predominated by yin deficiency.There was no statistically significant difference in the distribution of yin deficiency,blood deficiency,heat,phlegm,fluid-retention and damp syndrome elements among patients with different strains of drug-resistant bacterial infection(P＞0.05).(3)Of the 126 patients,62 cases(49.21%)had simple excess syndrome,one case(0.79%)had simple deficiency syndrome,and 63 cases(50.00%)had concurrent deficiency-excess syndrome.Among the 126 patients,there were 19 cases of single syndrome element,41 cases of concurrent two-syndrome element,49 cases of concurrent three-syndrome element,16 cases of concurrent four-syndrome element,and one case of concurrent five-syndrome element.And the combined syndrome element of phlegm-heat-yin deficiency occurred most frequently for 26 times.Conclusion Gram-negative bacteria are the primary infectious pathogens for the patients with multi-drug resistant bacterial infections,and the TCM syndrome elements of the patients are characterized by the concurrence of deficiency and excess and simple excess syndrome,mainly manifesting as phlegm,heat,and yin deficiency.

italic>Astragalus polysaccharides are the most immunoregulatory active and abundant substances in Astragalus, with anti-tumor, anti-viral, and immune-promoting biological activities. They have been widely used in clinical practice. Previous studies have found that Astragalus polysaccharides are mainly composed of two different polysaccharides, APS-I (>2 000 kDa) and APS-Ⅱ (10 kDa), with APS-Ⅱ (10 kDa) being the most active component of Astragalus polysaccharides. We used α-1,4-glucan endo-hydrolysis enzyme to degrade APS-Ⅱ into oligosaccharides, and screened the immune activity of oligosaccharides in vitro. We found that the overall immune activity of 2-9 oligosaccharides was low, while the immune activity of 10-14 oligosaccharides was strong, and the activity was better than that of untreated APS-Ⅱ. To investigate the key structural features of APS-Ⅱ oligosaccharides that play a role in immune activity, we used MALDI-TOF-MS biochemical mass spectrometry and high-resolution mass spectrometry instrument ESI-Q Exactive-MS to analyze the APS enzymatic oligosaccharides. By comparing, we found that 10-14 oligosaccharides contain 1→4 and 1→6 branched structures with coexisting linkages, suggesting that 1→4 and 1→6 linkages in branched structures are key structural features that play a role in the immune activity of APS-Ⅱ, laying a theoretical foundation for the structure-activity relationship of Astragalus polysaccharides and oligosaccharides.

[Objective] To explore the characteristics of lifestyle behaviors and mental health status among blood donors in Guangzhou, and to investigate the correlation between donation frequency and these factors. [Methods] A cross-sectional study was conducted among 13 042 whole blood donors from 17 street blood donation sites of Guangzhou Blood Center from May to August 2020. Descriptive analysis was used to describe the characteristics of lifestyle behaviors and mental health status among blood donors in Guangzhou. Ordinal multinomial logistic regression model was used to analyze the correlation between donation frequency and these factors. [Results] It was found that some of 13 042 blood donors had unhealthy habits, such as 6.8% (698/10 214，2 828 missing values) had severe tobacco dependence, 30.6% (3 997/13 042) had low exercise levels, 38.8%（5 056/13 042）had poor sleep quality, and 2.2% (271/12 159，883 missing values) had alcohol dependence. In addition, 2.8% (364/13 042) and 1.3% (172/13 042) of the donors may have moderate to severe depression and anxiety symptoms, respectively. The results of the ordinal multinomial logistic regression model showed that exercise level was significantly negatively correlated with the degree of depression and anxiety among blood donors. With the decrease in exercise level, the possibility of depression and anxiety among donors increased significantly. BMI, household income, education level, marital status, donation frequency, alcohol consumption and smoking had no significant correlation with the mental health status of donors. [Conclusion] Improving the exercise habits of blood donors may help enhance their mental health level. It is recommended that blood station staff strengthen the content of exercise when providing health education to blood donors to maintain a healthy lifestyle. It also suggests that there may be a certain degree of under-diagnosis of mental health problems in the process of health consultation before blood donation, and conducting more comprehensive and effective mental health assessments for blood donors is recommended.

Objective Viral encephalitis is an infectious disease severely affecting human health.It is caused by a wide variety of viral pathogens,including herpes viruses,flaviviruses,enteroviruses,and other viruses.The laboratory diagnosis of viral encephalitis is a worldwide challenge.Recently,high-throughput sequencing technology has provided new tools for diagnosing central nervous system infections.Thus,In this study,we established a multipathogen detection platform for viral encephalitis based on amplicon sequencing. Methods We designed nine pairs of specific polymerase chain reaction(PCR)primers for the 12 viruses by reviewing the relevant literature.The detection ability of the primers was verified by software simulation and the detection of known positive samples.Amplicon sequencing was used to validate the samples,and consistency was compared with Sanger sequencing. Results The results showed that the target sequences of various pathogens were obtained at a coverage depth level greater than 20×,and the sequence lengths were consistent with the sizes of the predicted amplicons.The sequences were verified using the National Center for Biotechnology Information BLAST,and all results were consistent with the results of Sanger sequencing. Conclusion Amplicon-based high-throughput sequencing technology is feasible as a supplementary method for the pathogenic detection of viral encephalitis.It is also a useful tool for the high-volume screening of clinical samples.

Objectives:To explore the clinical characteristics of children with adenoid hypertrophy (AH) and laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) by detecting the expression of pepsin in adenoids as a standard for AH with LPR.Methods:A total of 190 children who were admitted for surgical treatment due to AH were included in the study. The main clinical symptoms of the patients were recorded, and the degree of adenoid hypertrophy was evaluated. Before the surgery, Reflux Symptom Index (RSI) and Reflux Finding Score (RFS) were used to evaluate the reflux symptoms. After the surgery, pepsin immunohistochemical staining was performed on the adenoid tissue, and according to the staining results, the patients were divided into study group (pepsin staining positive) and control group (pepsin staining negative). SPSS 19.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Quantitative data conforming to normal distribution between the two groups were tested by two-independent sample t test, and quantitative data with skewed distribution were tested by Mann-Whitney U test. Results:The positive rate of pepsin staining in the 190 AH patients was 78.4% (149/190). The study group had higher levels of preoperative symptoms such as erythema and/or congestion of the pharynx(2.1±0.7 vs. 1.8±0.6, t=2.23), vocal cord edema[1.0(0, 1.0) vs. 1.0(0, 1.0), Z=2.00], diffuse laryngeal edema[0(0, 1.0) vs. 0(0, 0), Z=2.48], posterior commissure hypertrophy[(1.4±0.6 vs. 1.1±0.5), t=2.63], and a higher total score on the RFS scale than the control group(6.2±2.7 vs. 5.0±2.6, t=2.47), with statistical differences ( P<0.05). The sensitivity and specificity of RFS score in diagnosing AH with LPR were 24.8% and 80.5%, respectively. When RFS>5 was used as the positive threshold, the sensitivity and specificity of RFS score in diagnosing AH with LPR were 61.1% and 58.5%, respectively. There was a statistical difference in the number of positive cases of RFS score between the study group and the control group(91 vs. 17, χ2=5.04, P=0.032). Conclusions:LPR is common in AH children. Children with AH and LPR have specific performance in electronic laryngoscopy, such as erythema with edema in the pharynx, posterior commissure hypertrophy, and vocal cord edema.
