This paper summarizes Professor WANG Yaoxian's experience in treating diabetic kidney disease （DKD） from the perspective of spleen and stomach based on the "internal heat leading to concretions" theory. It is considered that internal heat leading to concretions constitutes the core pathogenesis of DKD， with the spleen and stomach serving as the source of internal heat； therefore， treatment should be based on regulating the spleen and stomach. In the early stage of DKD， dysfunction of the spleen and stomach leads to the initial generation of internal heat. Common syndrome patterns include gastrointestinal heat accumulation and constrained heat in the liver and stomach， for which modified Gegen Qinlian Decoction （葛根芩连汤） can be used to clear heat bind while modified Dachaihu Decoction （大柴胡汤） is used to clear stomach and soothe liver， respectively. In the middle stage of DKD， weakness of the spleen and stomach results in the initial formation of concretions and conglomerations. Common patterns include spleen deficiency with prevalence of dampness and deficiency of both the spleen and kidney. Treatment emphasizes strengthening the spleen and resolving dampness， raising yang and boosting the stomach with modified Shengyang Yiwei Decoction （升阳益胃汤）， or supplementing spleen and boosting kidney， dissipating bind and dispe-ring concretions with modified Shenqi Dihuang Decoction （参芪地黄汤）， respectively. In the late stage of DKD， it is characterized by spleen and stomach depletion， and rampant accumulation of turbidity and toxin， and the common syndrome patterns are damp-turbidity obstruction in the middle jiao （焦） and spleen-kidney yang deficiency. Treatment aims to remove turbidity and harmonize the stomach， or to warm the kidney and strengthen the spleen while elimina-ting turbidity， using modified Dahuang Gancao Decoction（大黄甘草汤） and Jupi Zhuru Decoction （橘皮竹茹汤） or modified Baoyuan Decoction （保元汤） and Lizhong Decoction （理中汤）， respectively. In clinical practice， appropriate formulas and medications are flexibly selected according to specific syndromes.

To thoroughly implement the strategic deployment outlined in the Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting the Inheritance and Innovative Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine regarding research on dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine and to uphold the development philosophy of equal emphasis on traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine，the China Association of Chinese Medicine has fully played a leading academic role by systematically organizing and conducting a series of academic youth salons on clinical dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine. On September 13，2024，the 36^th Youth Salon on Clinical Dominant Diseases was successfully held in Nanjing，focusing on the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine and the integrative traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of erectile dysfunction （ED）. The conference brought together leading experts from traditional Chinese medicine，western medicine，and interdisciplinary fields，facilitating in-depth multidisciplinary discussions that led to key consensus on optimizing traditional Chinese medicine treatment protocols for ED，researching and developing new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine，and advancing interdisciplinary development in traditional Chinese medicine. This salon systematically sorted out the clinical strengths and distinctive features of traditional Chinese medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of ED. Based on current research foundations and clinical needs，it identified key directions for future scientific layout and scientific research tackling： （1） Standardization of syndrome differentiation system of traditional Chinese medicine for ED. （2） Optimization and standardization of intervention methods of integrated traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine. （3） High-quality clinical research guided by evidence-based medicine. （4） In-depth analysis of the pharmacological mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of ED. （5） Clinical translation and application promotion of new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine. （6） Interdisciplinary integration and innovation in traditional Chinese medicine.

It serves as a valuable reference for national scientific and technological strategic layout， research and development decision-making in new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine，research topic planning，and clinical guideline formulation.

Background Neck-related work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are a major type of musculoskeletal disorders with a relatively high proportion. Shanghai has a large number of occupational populations; however, the occurrence of WMSDs at neck among the occupational populations across industries in this city has not been reported, and needs to be addressed. Objective To understand the occurrence of neck-related WMSDs and their influencing factors among occupational populations in 8 industries in Shanghai, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of WMSDs in this population. Methods From February 2024 to February 2025, a cross-sectional survey employed stratified cluster sampling to select 7829 employed workers from 48 enterprises across 8 industries in Shanghai. The study investigated the occurrence of neck-related WMSDs among the participants over the preceding 12 months. Logistic regression analysis was employed to examine the relationships between WMSDs and various occupational factors. Results A total of 7770 questionnaires were collected, yielding an effective response rate of 99.2%. Overall, the positive rate of neck-related WMSDs among the participants was 11.89% (924/7770). Among different industries, the environmental sanitation industry (19.48%), pharmaceutical manufacturing industry (14.57%), and cigarette manufacturing industry (13.66%) had higher prevalence of neck-related WMSDs. Univariate analysis showed that the risk of neck-related WMSDs was higher in the following groups: those with a job tenure ≥5 years in the current position (OR=1.50–1.70), females (OR=1.77), those with higher education levels (master’s degree or above, OR=2.27), and those with worse self-rated health (very poor health, OR=4.38) (P＜0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified the following independent risk factors for neck WMSDs: environmental sanitation industry (OR=7.30, 95%CI: 4.72, 11.87), higher educational attainment (master’s degree or above: OR=2.16, 95%CI: 1.36, 3.35), worse self-rated health status (very poor: OR=1.95, 95%CI: 1.31, 2.85), work performed in a single workshop (OR=1.36, 95%CI: 1.13, 1.64), understaffing (OR=1.46, 95%CI: 1.25, 1.70), slight neck forward flexion (OR=1.64, 95%CI: 1.32, 2.06), severe neck forward flexion (OR=2.55, 95%CI: 1.97, 3.30), and maintaining a fixed neck posture for a prolonged period (OR=2.28, 95%CI: 1.93, 2.70). Conversely, work rotation (OR=0.75, 95%CI: 0.65, 0.87), adequate rest (OR=0.70, 95%CI: 0.60, 0.82), and severe back flexion (OR=0.63, 95%CI: 0.46, 0.85) were protective factors against neck-related WMSDs. For the nomogram, the area under the curve (AUC)=0.75 (95%CI: 0.74, 0.77), Hosmer-Lemeshow test P=0.764, and Brier score=0.094, indicating that the model had good discrimination and calibration. Conclusion Among the occupational populations in Shanghai, the environmental sanitation industry, pharmaceutical manufacturing industry, and cigarette manufacturing industry are identified as high-risk industries for neck-related WMSDs. Industry affiliation, educational level, work organization patterns, and awkward neck working postures are confirmed as the core influencing factors for the development of neck-related WMSDs. Targeted and comprehensive intervention measures should be formulated focusing on the aforementioned high-risk industries and key influencing factors. Multi-dimensional collaborative efforts, including ergonomic optimization, improvement of labor management systems, and strengthened health education and promotion, should be implemented to effectively control the risk of neck-related WMSDs in the occupational population, and to provide robust statistical evidence for the advancement of regional occupational health prevention and control strategies.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of plasma trough concentration of venetoclax and its influencing factors in patients with acute myeloid leukemia （AML）. METHODS After 5 days of venetoclax administration， venous blood samples were collected from AML patients before the next dose. Plasma trough concentrations of venetoclax were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Spearman correlation was used to assess the correlations between venetoclax plasma trough concentration and various parameters （including patients’ general information， venetoclax-related indicators， liver function indicators， kidney function indicators， and blood routine indicators）. Multiple linear regression analysis was performed to identify independent factors influencing plasma trough concentration of venetoclax. Using efficacy as dependent variable [complete remission （CR）+partial remission （PR） vs. no remission （NR）]， univariate and multivariate binary Logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify factors affecting efficacy. The receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of venetoclax plasma trough concentration for clinical efficacy （assessed as CR）. RESULTS A total of 172 venetoclax plasma trough concentration measurements from 101 patients were included in this study. The median plasma trough concentration of venetoclax was 2.38 （1.18， 3.85） μg/mL； the median sampling time for plasma trough concentration of venetoclax was 10 （7， 15） d； the duration of venetoclax use was （34±12） d. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that alkaline phosphatase （ B ＝14.65， 95%CI： 5.35-23.95， P ＝0.002）， total bilirubin （ B ＝－101.71， 95%CI： －197.16 to －6.25， P ＝0.037）， and white blood cell count （ B ＝－106.84， 95%CI： －187.61 to －26.07， P ＝0.010） were independent factors influencing plasma trough concentration of venetoclax. Due to patient attrition during treatment， 114 venetoclax plasma trough concentration measurements from 69 patients were included for efficacy evaluation. The results showed that 46 patients （66.7%） achieved CR， 11 patients （15.9%） achieved PR， and 12 patients （17.4%） were NR. Multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that age， hemoglobin， venetoclax plasma trough concentration， hematocrit， and mean corpuscular hemoglobin were independent factors affecting patient efficacy （ P ＜0.05）. ROC curve analysis showed that the cut-off value of plasma trough concentration of venetoclax for predicting patient efficacy （assessed as CR） was 1.68 μg/mL （AUC＝0.66， 95%CI： 0.54-0.78， P ＝0.014）. CONCLUSIONS There is considerable inter-individual variability in plasma trough concentration of venetoclax among AML patients. Plasma trough concentration of venetoclax is significantly correlated with alkaline phosphatase， total bilirubin， and white blood cell count. Plasma trough concentration of venetoclax is an independent factor affecting patient’s efficacy， and when the cut-off value for predicting CR is above 1.68 μg/mL， better effects may be achieved.

Based on the theory of diseased collaterals and the progression pattern of diabetic kidney disease （DKD）， this paper proposes a staged treatment system based on the "three states of kidney collaterals" including collateral distention， collateral bi （痹） and collateral accumulation. In the collateral distention stage， the primary pathogenesis is heat damaging the kidney collaterals and collateral vessel dilation， corresponding to the early state of DKD characterized by hyperfiltration and microalbuminuria； the clearing method is suggested， and Shenling Jiangtang Formula （参苓降糖方） can be used to promote the remission of proteinuria by ameliorating insulin resistance and regulating intestinal microecology. In the collateral bi stage， the core pathogenesis lies in the binding of phlegm and stasis， and the formation of concretions and conglomerations in the kidney collaterals， corresponding to massive proteinuria and the decline of renal function， for which the unblocking method should be taken， using Jinchan Yishen Tongluo Formula （金蝉益肾通络方） and Qingre Xiaozheng Formula （清热消癥方） to alleviate renal pathological damage by regulating the autophagy-lysosome pathway and repairing mitochondrial energy metabolism. The collateral accumulation stage is characterized by the internal retention of turbid toxins and accumulations of concretions in the kidney collaterals， corresponding to renal fibrosis and end-stage renal disease （ESRD）； the dispersion method is suggested， and Yiqi Tongluo Xiezhuo Formula （益气通络泄浊方） and Shenyan Fangshuai Fluid （肾炎防衰液） can be used to inhibit extracellular matrix accumulation and delay the progressive loss of renal function. Collateral deficiency runs through the entire course of the disease and is closely related to cellular senescence and the imbalance of the ubiquitin-proteasome/autophagy system. The concept of the "three states of kidney collaterals" integrates the evolution of traditional Chinese medicine pathogenesis with modern pathological staging， forming a whole-course intervention system of "staging-syndrome differentiation-target-formula"， thereby providing novel insights for prevention and treatment of DKD using integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine.

Objective To investigated how morning meetings are conducted in radiology departments across different levels of hospitals in Shandong Province. It also explored the role of an intelligent morning meeting platform in supporting digital management of radiology departments. Methods This study was conducted through the Shandong Provincial Regional Medical Center Alliance. A questionnaire survey was administered to 241 hospitals of different grades to assess their morning meeting practices. Based on the findings, an intelligent and process-oriented management model suitable for the regional context was summarized and developed, leading to the construction of an intelligent morning meeting management platform. A comparative analysis was then performed in our hospital's radiology department. Key management indicators were compared before and after using the platform. These indicators included: weekly frequency of morning meetings, number of meeting types, staff attendance rate, rate of electronic management of meeting materials, proportion of case discussions that met teaching requirements, and staff satisfaction. Results The intelligent morning meeting management platform integrates multiple functions. These functions included morning meeting management, case management, archiving of meeting materials, quality control management, electronic attendance tracking, and online meetings across multiple hospital campuses. After the platform was implemented in the radiology department, all key indicators improved significantly. Specifically, weekly meeting frequency, number of meeting types, attendance rate, rate of electronic management of meeting materials, proportion of case discussions meeting teaching requirements, and staff satisfaction were all significantly higher than before implementation (all P<0.05). Conclusion The application of the intelligent morning meeting management platform can digitize, standardize, and make traceable the morning meetings in radiology departments.It significantly improves the efficiency and quality of these meetings. It also effectively enhances the digital management level of radiology departments. This study aimed to investigate the current operation of morning meetings in radiology departments at different levels of hospitals in Shandong Province, and to explore the role of the intelligent morning meeting platform in the digital management of radiology departments.

Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis(TMJOA)is a chronic degenerative disorder.Although current clinical interven-tions can effectively mitigate disease progression,they remain limited in fully reversing formed pathological structural alterations.Mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes(MSC-Exos),which mimic the primary therapeutic functions of mesenchymal stem cells,exhibit advantages such as excellent biocompatibility,low immunogenicity,and absence of cytotoxicity.In TMJOA,MSC-Exos exert therapeutic effects by modulating chondrocytes,immune cells,and the cartilage matrix.However,the clinical application of MSC-Exos still faces certain limitations.Enhancing their therapeutic efficacy has become a central research focus in this field.This review summarizes existing therapeutic strategies for TMJOA and explores the potential applications of MSC-Exos in TMJOA management,aiming to provide insights for future research.

BACKGROUND:The plateau environment affects the immune function and metabolic status of patients with osteomyelitis,leading to acceleration or complication of the disease process.The construction of effective and stable animal models of chronic osteomyelitis is essential for experimental studies of chronic osteomyelitis.OBJECTIVE:To establish a sheep model of chronic osteomyelitis in plateau regions for toxicity assessment and therapeutic research.METHODS:Fifteen healthy sheep were selected in this study.Sodium morrhuate and Staphylococcus aureus suspension were injected into the medullary cavity of the middle segment of the tibia to establish the chronic osteomyelitis model.General observation,body mass and temperature monitoring,blood infection index detection,radiological scoring,and microbial culture were performed for evaluation and analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Local tissue swelling and lameness of the affected leg were observed in all sheep in the early stage after modeling,accompanied by varying degrees of anorexia.A slight decrease in body mass was observed in sheep 1 week after modeling,while no significant changes in body temperature were observed.(2)The erythrocyte sedimentation rate significantly accelerated 4 days after modeling(P<0.05)and gradually returned to normal levels after 1 month.The white blood cell count showed a significant increase within 4 days after modeling and returned to normal after 1 week.The level of C-reactive protein increased significantly after modeling(P<0.05)and remained significantly higher than normal until the end of the experiment(P<0.05).(3)Fifteen sheep exhibited typical radiological manifestations of osteomyelitis,including unclear boundaries,irregular osteolytic lesions,and low-density bright absorption areas with interspersed necrotic bone fragments of increased and uneven density.Different degrees of periosteal reaction were observed in the cortex near the lesion.(4)Thirteen sheep were cultured for a single strain of Staphylococcus aureus,while two sheep were cultured for Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.These findings indicate that a reliable chronic osteomyelitis animal model of sheep tibia can be successfully established in plateau regions by injecting an appropriate amount of Staphylococcus aureus suspension into the medullary cavity of sheep,combined with local implantation of foreign cotton thread and sodium morrhuate.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of a hospital-to-home transitional health management program for caregivers of children with severe encephalitis,aiming to provide a reference for optimizing transitional care models for these patients.Methods A convenience sampling method was used to select 84 children with severe encephalitis and their caregivers admitted to the neurology department of a tertiary hospital in Zhengzhou between March 2023 and June 2024.According to the admission time,they were divided into an experimental group and a control group,with 42 cases in each group.The experimental group received a hospital-to-home transitional health management program in addition to routine care,while the control group received standard care and discharge instructions.Differences in caregivers' perceived benefits,caregiver burden,disease management ability,and post-intervention outcomes of the children were compared between the 2 groups before and after the intervention.Results All 42 participants in both groups completed the study.After the intervention,the experimental group reported higher perceived benefits of(91.29±9.76)compared to(84.81±12.86)in the control group,lower caregiver burden of(48.55±7.15)compared to(54.71±11.23)in the control group,greater disease management ability of(41.83±4.97)than(37.79±5.23)in the control group,and lower difficulty in disease management of(31.52±7.82)compared to(34.55±3.96)in the control group,with all differences being statistically significant(P＜0.05).No statistically significant difference was found in the prognosis of the children between the 2 groups(P=0.500).Conclusion The hospital-to-home transitional health management program can effectively enhance caregivers'perceived benefits and disease management capabilities,reduce their caregiving burden,and provide scientific evidence for optimizing transitional care for children with severe encephalitis.
