This paper summarizes Professor CUI Yinglin's clinical experience in treating pediatric mitochondrial encephalomyopathy based on the original qi theory. It is proposed that original qi depletion is the core pathogenesis， and the fundamental therapeutic principle is consolidating the root and replenishing original qi. Clinically， the disease is classified into four syndrome types， including insufficiency of kidney essence， spleen qi depletion， liver-kidney yin deficiency， and original qi constraint and stagnation accompanied by phlegm-stasis obstructing the collaterals. Correspondingly， self-formulated Gujing Yiyuan Decoction （固精益元汤） can be used to tonify the kidney and replenish essence， reinforce and strengthen original qi. Modified Yiyuan Decoction （益元汤） is used to fortify the spleen and supplement qi， consolidate the root and replenish original qi. Modified Da Bu Yuan Decoction （大补元煎） is employed to nourish the liver and kidney， and replenish original qi. Self-formulated Huatan Quyu Formula （化痰祛瘀方） is used to supplement qi and activating blood， resolve phlegm and unblocking the collaterals. Medication is flexibly adjusted according to syndrome differentiation， with simultaneous attention to the functional balance of the zang-fu （脏腑） organs and the harmony of qi， blood， yin， and yang， which may provide useful guidance for the clinical treatment of pediatric mitochondrial encephalomyopathy.

Animal model research on spleen and stomach diseases in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） is of great significance for elucidating the nature of diseases and syndromes and for revealing the mechanisms of action of Chinese herbal medicinals. At present， studies on classical TCM syndrome models of spleen and stomach diseases mainly focus on spleen deficiency syndrome， liver constraint syndrome， and damp-heat syndrome. Model construction is mostly based on the etiological and pathophysiological characteristics of syndrome， and model evaluation primarily involves macroscopic manifestations and physicochemical indicators. This paper summarizes the current research status of animal models integrating disease and syndrome for seven common spleen and stomach diseases， including chronic gastritis and gastric precancerous lesions， gastroesophageal reflux disease， functional dyspepsia， inflammatory bowel disease， irritable bowel syndrome， functional constipation， and functional diarrhea. The modeling methods and characteristics of disease-syndrome combined animal models for each disease are analyzed. It is proposed that future research on disease-syndrome integration in spleen and stomach diseases should move toward syste-matic， precise， and integrative development， and that interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary research approaches should be adopted to enhance the predictive value and application efficiency of disease-syndrome combined animal models.

ObjectiveTo meet the requirements of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), Sichuan Institute for Drug Control (Sichuan Testing Center of Medical Devices, Sichuan Institute of Musk Deer Breeding) Safety Evaluation Center (hereinafter referred to as the center) conducts a targeted validation study to address the lack of supporting data for the specified validity periods of disinfectants, feed, and bedding during their use in laboratory animal facilities. The study summarizes practical experience in material management and provides a scientific basis for the standardized management of materials in the facility. MethodsUnder the routine operating conditions of the laboratory animal facility at the center, the disinfection efficacy of four commonly used disinfectants was confirmed using the quantitative suspension kill test, with the disinfectants tested on day 0, day 7, and at 1, 2, and 3 months after preparation and after opening; for laboratory animal feed, nutritional components, chemical contaminants, and microbial indicators were tested 7 days after opening; microbial indicators of laboratory animal corncob bedding were tested after storage for 7 days following opening and sterilization. ResultsUnder the GLP management system of our center, the disinfection efficacy log reduction values of prepared 0.04% sodium hypochlorite solution, 0.1% didecyldimethylammonium bromide solution, and 0.2% benzalkonium bromide solution were all ≥5 on days 0 and 7. The log reduction values of opened 75% ethanol were ≥5 on days 0 and 7 and at 1, 2, and 3 months after opening. All disinfectants were therefore qualified and effective. Compared with the factory inspection data, the nutritional components, chemical contaminants, and microbial indicators of SPF-grade rat and mouse maintenance feed, SPF-grade guinea pig growth and reproduction feed, conventional-grade guinea pig growth and reproduction feed, rabbit maintenance feed, and dog maintenance feed showed a slight overall downward trend but no significant differences 7 days after opening. The microbial indicators of specialized corncob bedding for SPF-grade laboratory animals stored for 7 days after opening and conventional-grade corncob bedding stored for 7 days after sterilization showed no significant fluctuations. All indicators still met the relevant requirements of GB/T 14924.2—2001 Laboratory Animals—Hygienic Standard for Formula Feeds and GB 14924.3—2010 Laboratory Animals—Nutrients for Formula Feeds. ConclusionBased on practical experience in managing the center's GLP laboratory animal facility and validation of core quality indicators, the specified validity periods of disinfectants, feed, and bedding meet the quality requirements, providing a practical reference for the standardized management of laboratory animal facilities.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease（NAFLD） is the most common chronic liver disease in the world. Because of its complex pathogenesis， high clinical prevalence and large population， it poses a great threat and challenge to public health in the world. Therefore， active intervention measures are needed. Currently， western medicine is effective in reducing weight， reducing liver fat content， improving glucose-lipid metabolism and insulin resistance. However， for patients with NAFLD-related fibrosis and cirrhosis， there is still a lack of sufficient histological evidence to support its benefits， and randomized controlled trials are still needed to clarify. Lifestyle intervention is an important cornerstone for the treatment of NAFLD， but there are many problems such as poor implementation and low compliance of patients， and the clinical efficacy is not ideal. Traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） has the significant advantages of multiple pathways and multiple targets. Berberine， the active ingredient of TCM， can interfere with the production of NAFLD from multiple pathways， including increasing energy consumption， weight loss， improving glucose-lipid metabolism， improving insulin resistance， anti-inflammatory， anti-oxidation， regulating intestinal flora， restoring bile acid homeostasis， anti-fibrosis and so on， which can play a positive role in the treatment of NAFLD. At the same time， it was found that the combination of BBR with Chinese and western medicines had significant advantages in promoting drug absorption， improving oral bioavailability， increasing the highest biological distribution in the liver， enhancing the overall therapeutic effect of NAFLD， and reducing adverse drug reactions， which could provide reference for clinical medication.

Objective:To analyze the results of prenatal diagnosis for fetuses with a high risk for sex chromosome aneuploidies (SCAs) indicated by non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT), and to assess the influence of maternal chromosomal factors on the results of NIPT.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 454 pregnant women with a high risk for SCAs indicated by NIPT undergoing invasive prenatal diagnosis at the Medical Genetics Center of Northwest Women′s and Children′s Hospital from January 2022 to September 2024. The data has included prenatal diagnosis indications, results, pregnancy outcomes, and chromosomal results of the pregnant women. This study has been approved by the Ethics Committe of Northwest Women′s and Children′s Hospital(Ethics No.2024-132)Results:Among the 454 women (including 10 with twin pregnancy) with a high risk for SCAs indicated by NIPT, 149 (including 4 twin cases) were diagnosed with SCAs through invasive prenatal diagnosis. These had included 47, XXX (37 cases), 47, XXY (56 cases), 47, XYY (29 cases), 45, X (1 case), 48, XXYY (1 case), mosaicism (20 cases), sex chromosome structural abnormalities (6 cases), and small-scale pathogenic copy number variations (3 cases). 383 pregnant women (including 7 with twin pregnancy) had accepted chromosomal karyotyping analysis. In total 49 cases(including 1 twih case) of SCAs were detected. Among them, 41 cases were pregnant women with SCAs but normal fetal chromosomes, which yielded a false positive rate for NIPT caused by maternal factors by 10.7%. In addition, 9 cases (including 1 twin case) had SCAs in both the pregnant woman and the fetus. Among the 383 pregnant women, 129 cases (including 3 twin cases) of fetal SCAs were diagnosed, which yielded an overall positive predictive value (PPV) of NIPT for SCAs by 33.7% (129/383). With the 41 false positive cases caused by maternal SCAs excluded, the PPV of NIPT for SCAs will be increased to 37.7% (129/342). Among the 454 pregnant women, twin pregnancies have accounted for 2.2% (10/454). Among the confirmed cases of SCAs, twin cases accounted for 2.7% (4/149). Among the 383 pregnant women undergoing chromosomal karyotyping, twin cases accounted for 1.8% (7/383). Among the detected cases of chromosomal abnormalities, twin cases accounted for 2.0% (1/49). Among singleton pregnancies, the positive predictive value (PPV) of NIPT for sex chromosome aneuploidies (SCAs) was 32.7% (145/444), in twin pregnancies, the PPV was 40.0% (4/10).Conclusion:NIPT can improve the screening efficiency for SCAs, but its PPV is limited. Therefore, pregnant women with a high risk for SCAs indicated by NIPT need to undergo invasive prenatal diagnosis for a definite diagnosis, while the PPV in twin pregnancies may be higher than in singletons, this observation is limited by the small sample size of twins in our study. The study confirmed that chromosomal abnormalitpies in pregnant women can significantly affect the accuracy of NIPT in detecting fetal SCAs. Therefore, when NIPT indicates SCAs, it is recommended to simultaneously conduct chromosomal karyotyping for the pregnant women. The combined application of chromosomal karyotyping analysis, fluorescence in situ hybridization, and copy number variation detection techniques can significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy for SCAs, especially for the detection of mosaicisms.

Objective:To describe the safety of using the Chinese-made robotic laparoscopic surgery system for laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy in the treatment of severe pelvic organ prolapse.Methods:A pilot descriptive clinical study was conducted, enrolling 16 severe pelvic organ prolapse patients at Peking University First Hospital from April 2023 to January 2024. Patients who consented to participate in this study underwent laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for severe pelvic organ prolapse using Chinese-made robotic laparoscopic surgery system. Preoperative clinical basic data and perioperative data of the patients were collected, summarizing the data on perioperative bleeding and complications, and reviewed the surgical learning experience. The evaluation indicators related to the learning experience included: (1) efficiency evaluation: including equipment docking time, total surgery time, suturing time, mechanical arm operation time and hysterectomy time, which were timed and recorded during surgery; (2) equipment operability evaluation: including equipment operation task load assessment and intraoperative operation feeling score. The cumulative sum analysis method was used to quantify surgery time and fit the learning curve.Results:Sixteen patients were successfully enrolled and underwent surgery, including total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy or salpingectomy plus sacrocolpopexy, or sacrocolpopexy alone (for one case without uterus). The age of 16 cases was (56.7±7.6) years (ranged from 44 to 67 years), with body mass index of (25.4±2.5) kg/m2. Concurrent procedures included anterior vaginal wall repair in 12 cases (12/16), posterior vaginal wall repair in 13 cases (13/16), tension-free vaginal tape obturator system in 1 case (1/16), and recto-uterine pouch hernia repair in 4 cases (4/16). The total surgery time was (355.8±91.1) minutes, with docking time at (6.7±4.9) minutes, robotic operative time at (267.6±81.4) minutes, robotic suturing time at (155.6±53.9) minutes, and hysterectomy time at (112.0±45.3) minutes. Learning curve analysis revealed inflection points at 6 cases for total surgery time ( P<0.001, R2=0.944) and robotic operative time ( P<0.001, R2=0.982), 5 cases for docking time ( P<0.001, R2=0.989), and 6 cases for robotic suturing time ( P<0.001, R2=0.907). Hysterectomy time had an inflection point at 5 cases ( P=0.023, R2=0.700). Median blood loss was 30 ml (range: 10-1 000 ml), with severe bleeding in one patient (1/16). No conversions to open surgery or laparoscopy occurred, and no severe perioperative or postoperative complications were reported. Conclusion:The Chinese-made robotic laparoscopic surgery system demonstrates excellent short-time safety and ease of operation for laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy.

Objective To investigate the characteristics and differences of congenital endowment in senile dementia population based on the theory of five circuits and six qi.Methods Based on the cross-sectional data of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Survey(CHARLS)in 2018,the dementia status of the population aged 60 and above in China was evaluated by using the Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE),and the five-circuit and six-qi features at birth in the senile dementia population were analyzed by descriptive statistics and Chi-square goodness-of-fit test.Results A total of 854 patients with senile dementia were included.The five-circuit and six-qi features at birth in the senile dementia population were as follows:most of them were born at the heavenly stem of Bing while the least at the heavenly stem of Ji and Geng(P＜0.001),most of them were born at the earthly branch of Wei while the least at the earthly branch of Zi(P＜0.001),most of them were born at the yearly circuit of excessive water circuit while the least at the yearly circuit of excessive gold circuit and deficient earth circuit(P＜0.001),and most of the patients were born at sitan of taiyin damp-earth and zaiquan of taiyang cold-water while the least at sitan of jueyin wind-wood and zaiquan of shaoyang ministerial fire;no statistically significant differences were found in the dominant qi and guest qi(P＞0.05);most of the patients were born in the year of combination of circuit and qi being Shunhua while the least in the year of combination of circuit and qi being same celestial correspondence(P＜0.001),and the patients born in the year of Shunhua usually were frequently distributed in heavenly-stem and earthly-branch year of Jiawu(P＜0.001).Conclusion There is a certain relationship between the congenital endowment at birth and the incidence of senile dementia in the population of senile dementia.The circuit-qi features at birth for the prevalence of senile dementia are the yearly circuit of excessive water circuit,sitan of taiyin damp-earth and zaiquan of taiyang cold-water,and the year of the combination of circuit and qi being Shunhua.The population born at the time with the above circuit-qi features are prone to suffer the injury of the kidneys,the heart,and the spleen,and then result into illness.
