1.A brief examination of the historical roots and origins of the evolution of Chinese medical ethics culture
Chinese Medical Ethics 2026;39(1):22-28
Contemporary Chinese medical ethics culture is a brand-new cultural field gradually formed with the development of Chinese society and the progress of medical science and technology. This type of culture, with its own characteristics, needs to be examined and understood from the perspective of the historical roots and origins of its evolution. The ancient Chinese medical ethics thought has a foundational significance for modern and contemporary medical ethics thought. The thought that “medicine is the art of benevolence” is the core concept of Chinese medical ethics culture, from which the ancient medical moral thoughts and cultural systems were derived. With the introduction of Western medicine and its development in China, the penetration of modern Western medical ethics thought into the moral thought system of traditional Chinese medicine became the beginning of the collision and integration of Chinese and Western medical ethics wisdom. The “spirit of red medicine” formed during the revolutionary process in modern China, reflects the characteristics of medical ethics culture forged in the practice of China’s great revolution. Contemporary Chinese medical ethics culture is gradually blending into the mainstream of Chinese society and has become a constituent element of the socialist culture system with Chinese characteristics.

ObjectiveThis paper aims to explore the risk factors for chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome and establish a prediction model. MethodsClinical data of 180 patients with CAG who participated in the "clinical study of Xianglian Huazhuo Particles blocking CAG cancer transformation" of Hebei Sheng Zhong Yi Yuan from July 2021 to March 2022 were collected. After confounding factors were controlled by propensity score matching, patients were divided into a training set (namely dev) and a validation set (namely vad) in a seven to three ratio. The risk factors for CAG with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome in the training set were investigated by using univariate Logistic regression analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (namely Lasso) regression algorithms. Subsequently, a model, named model 1se, was developed by using the training set data to predict the risk factors for CAG with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome. The accuracy of the prediction model was assessed by using various methods, including the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, Hosmer-Lemeshow test (H-L), calibration plot, and decision curve analysis (DCA). ResultsAge, body mass index (BMI), family history of cancer, job and life satisfaction, yellow and greasy fur with slippery pulse, and heavy body sensation were independent risk factors of the model. The prediction model showed excellent predictive value for both the training and validation sets. ConclusionThe established prediction model for CAG with turbidity toxin accumulation syndrome has high discrimination and excellent calibration, which could provide an excellent clinical basis for disease diagnosis and individualized treatment of patients.

ObjectiveTo construct a scale for the diagnosis of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) with turbid toxin accumulating in the stomach. MethodsFirst, a research group was established to construct the scale framework. Relevant literature of CAG with syndrome of turbid toxin accumulating in the stomach was searched in CNKI, Wanfang Database (WF), and VIP Database (CQVIP) from April 1, 2003 to April 1, 2023, and items were preliminarily selected after standardization of terms. Through clinical investigation, the discrete trend method, correlation coefficient method, Cronbach's coefficient method, and factor analysis method were used to screen symptom items, and the frequency method was used to screen signs, tongue coating, and pulse conditions. Three rounds of Delphi expert consultation were conducted to determine the items of the scale. The weight of each item was obtained by the analytic hierarchy process. ResultsA total of 49 articles were included, and 45 items were obtained after primary screening, including 28 symptoms, 2 signs, 10 tongue coatings, and 5 pulse conditions. After clinical investigation, 15 symptoms were retained, and 8 signs and pulse conditions of tongue coating were retained. The positive coefficients of experts in three rounds of Delphi expert consultation were 100%, 96.67%, and 100%, respectively. The expert authority coefficients were 0.86, 0.87, and 0.87, respectively, and the coordination coefficients were 0.18, 0.25, and 0.30. After core group discussion, Delphi method investigation, and AHP weight assignment, the diagnostic scale items of CAG with turbid toxin accumulating in stomach syndrome were finally established, namely, dark red or purplish tongue proper with yellow greasy (or dry) coating (30 points), epigastric stuffiness and fullness or pain (15 points), sticky and unsmooth defecation (10 points), taste disturbance (sticky mouth, fetid breath, bitter taste, 7 points), heartburn or acid regurgitation (6 points), dizziness and clouding (5 points), general heaviness and fatigue (5 points), slippery, string‑slippery, or slippery‑rapid pulse (5 points), dysuria (or yellow or deep yellow urine, 4 points), poor appetite (4 points), dull complexion (3 points), sticky, greasy, and fetid secretions (3 points), and poor sleep (3 points). ConclusionBased on the establishment, screening, confirmation, and weighting of an item pool, combined with subjective and objective approaches as well as qualitative and quantitative methods, a diagnostic scale for CAG with the syndrome of turbid toxin accumulating in the stomach was successfully constructed.

Objective To investigate disparities in health levels among populations across different regions of China and analyze the relationship between these disparities and regional, social, and economic factors, and to provide recommendations to promote health equity. Methods Based on the data from the Seventh National Population Census, this study employed spatial autocorrelation analysis and the spatial Durbin model to conduct spatial and temporal analyses of the health status of the national population from 2012 to 2021, focusing on the regional distribution of health levels and related influencing factors. Results 1. Regional disparities: The mortality rate in Gansu Province rose from 6.05‰ in 2012 to 8.26‰ in 2021, whereas the mortality rate in eastern provinces such as Hainan Province was relatively low in 2021 (5.39‰). 2. Spatial clustering: The spatial correlation of mortality rates was weak (Moran's I: 0.134-0.245), and the high mortality clusters showed a shift from southwest to northeast region. 3. Influencing factors: Economic conditions, education quality, urbanization levels, and healthcare resources significantly impacted population mortality rates. Conclusion The present study identifies pronounced regional disparities in population health, providing a scientific basis for formulating targeted healthcare policies. Additionally, this study highlights the critical importance of spatial analysis in understanding and addressing public health issues to advance health equity.

Objective To retrospectively analyze multicenter data from domestic sources, aiming to explore the link between intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) tumor size and prognosis, establishing a classification system based on tumor size. Methods Between December 2011 and September 2018, 280 ICC patients from 13 hospitals were included. The tumor size prognosis cutoff was identified by the minimum P-value method, and the classification's overall survival related effectiveness was assessed by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Results All 280 patients were divided into the group of tumor maximum diameter ≤4 cm and >4 cm. Tumor size was confirmed as an independent prognosis factor by multivariate COX regression analysis (HR=2.110, 95% CI: 1.358-3.280). Conclusions The tumor size dichotomy classification system based on the Chinese patient group can expediently predict ICC prognosis and offers an important basis for selecting post-operative individualized adjuvant therapy and follow up plans.
