The theory of constitution in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has emerged as a new discipline in recent years. Constitution plays a vital role in the onset，progression，transformation，and prognosis of diseases. At present，some clinical scholars have adopted a novel diagnostic and treatment model of "constitution differentiation-disease identification-syndrome differentiation"，in which constitution is regarded as a core element throughout the diagnostic and therapeutic process. Constitution is closely associated with etiology，onset，pathogenesis，syndrome differentiation，and treatment. Against this background，the construction of animal models based on constitution holds far-reaching significance for advancing clinical research. This paper focuses on the construction and evaluation of rodent models with Qi-deficiency constitution，aiming to explore how to further induce Qi-deficiency syndromes and related disease states on the basis of Qi-deficiency constitution models，thereby developing an integrated animal model that embodies the trinity of "constitution-disease-syndrome". The establishment of this model not only provides a solid experimental foundation for the development of new therapies and drugs in TCM targeting specific constitutions，diseases，and syndromes，but also greatly promotes the modernization and scientific advancement of TCM theory. By comprehensively applying multidisciplinary technologies and methods，the study evaluates the model's validity，reliability，and practicality，with the aim of opening new avenues for future research in TCM and promoting the development of the field.

Childhood simple obesity has become a significant public health issue in China. Modern medicine primarily relies on lifestyle interventions and often suffers from poor long-term compliance， while pharmacological options are limited and associated with potential adverse effects. Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） has a long history in the prevention and management of this condition， demonstrating eight distinct advantages， including systematic theoretical foundation， diversified therapeutic approaches， definite therapeutic efficacy， high safety profile， good patient compliance， comprehensive intervention strategies， emphasis on prevention， and stepwise treatment protocols. Additionally， TCM is characterized by six distinctive features： the use of natural medicinal substances， non-invasive external therapies， integration of medicinal dietetics， simple exercise regimens， precise syndrome differentiation， and diverse dosage forms. By combining internal and external treatments， TCM facilitates individualized regimen adjustment and holistic regulation， demonstrating remarkable effects in improving obesity-related metabolic indicators， regulating constitutional imbalance， and promoting healthy behaviors. However， challenges remain， such as inconsistent operational standards， insufficient high-quality clinical evidence， and a gap between basic research and clinical application. Future efforts should focus on accelerating the standardization of TCM diagnosis and treatment， conducting multicenter randomized controlled trials， and fostering interdisciplinary integration， so as to enhance the scientific validity and international recognition of TCM in the prevention and treatment of childhood obesity.

ObjectiveTo develop an assessment tool for apraxia of speech (AOS) of Chinese Putonghua speakers and test its reliability and validity. MethodsThe Chinese Apraxia of Speech Assessment and Diagnostic Tool (CAADT) was developed based on the Apraxia of Speech Rating Scale 3.5, combined with the linguistic characteristics of Chinese and clinical experience. The tool consistsed of eleven items across three sections: articulation, prosody and alternating motion rates. Six experts evaluated the content validity. From November, 2024 to May, 2025, 51 patients with post-stroke AOS (experimental group) and ten patients with post-stroke aphasia without AOS (control group) were recruited from Anhui Wannan Rehabilitation Hospital (the Fifth People's Hospital of Wuhu), and tested with CAADT. Reliability was assessed using Cronbach's α coefficient, Kendall's coefficient of concordance W and Pearson correlation coefficient. Validity was evaluated using the content validity index (CVI) and Spearman correlation coefficient. Discriminative effect was analyzed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. ResultsThe Cronbach's α coefficients for the articulation and prosody sections and the total scale were all > 0.9, while it was 0.454 for the alternating motion rates. Inter-rater reliability was good (W ≥ 0.598, P < 0.001). Test-retest reliability showed high positive correlations for the three sections and the total score between the two assessments (r ≥ 0.84, P < 0.001). The scale-level CVI was 0.95, and the item-level CVI ≥ 0.83. The Spearman correlation coefficients among the sections ranged from 0.30 to 0.70. ROC analysis revealed an area under the curve of 0.953, with a cut-off value of 11, yielding a sensitivity of 0.92 and a specificity of 0.90. ConclusionCAADT demonstrates good reliability, validity and discriminative effect, which can be used for clinical assessment and auxiliary diagnosis of Chinese Putonghua speaking patients with post-stroke AOS.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) via the contralateral femoral vein approach (CFVA-CDT) and the calf deep vein approach (CVA-CDT) in the treatment of acute mixed-type lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT).Methods:Patients treated with CFVA-CDT and CVA-CDT for acute mixed-type DVT were retrospectively collected from January 2018 to December 2021, totaling 49 and 32 patients, respectively. The relevant technical indicators, thrombolysis rates in the iliac-femoral vein segment and femoral-popliteal vein segment, clinical efficacy, and the incidence of lower extremity deep vein patency, venous valve insufficiency, and post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS), as well as the severity of chronic venous disease in the affected limb (VCSS score) during a 2-year follow-up period were retrospectively compared between the two venous access CDT groups. The t-test was used for comparing quantitative data, while the chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test was used for categorical data.Results:During CFVA-CDT procedure, 6-8 F vascular sheaths were used, and balloon dilation of 2~6 mm was more frequently employed (65.31%, 32/49) to expand venous stenosis/occlusion segments before successful sheath placement compared to the CVA-CDT group (37.50%, 12/32), and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.014). In the CVA-CDT group, 31.25% (10/32) of patients had a maximum sheath size of 6 F, while the remainder used 4 or 5 F sheaths. Among them, 34.38% (11/32) of patients required re-puncture of the popliteal or femoral vein for larger sheaths (≥8 F) for thrombus aspiration and subsequent endovascular treatment during or after thrombolysis. The effective thrombolysis rates (≥50%) in the iliac-femoral vein segment were not significantly different between the two groups ( P=0.778). The effective thrombolysis rate of the femoral-popliteal venous segment is related to the presence or absence of popliteal vein opacification on lower extremity venous antegrade venography. There was no significant difference between the groups when the popliteal vein was visualized ( P=1.000). While the popliteal vein was not visualized, the CVA-CDT group (75.0%, 15/20) was significantly better than the CFVA-CDT group (34.38%, 11/32), and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.004). There was no significant difference in clinical efficacy between the two groups ( P=0.819). During follow-up, the femoral-popliteal vein patency rate in the CVA-CDT group (87.50%, 28/32) was significantly higher than in the CFVA-CDT group (44.90%, 22/49), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). Conclusions:Successful CFVA-CDT requires the assistance of more ancillary devices, while the use of larger sheaths is more limited in CVA-CDT due to the smaller caliber of the calf deep veins. The presence or absence of popliteal vein opacification on lower extremity venous antegrade venography may influence the effective thrombolysis of the femoral-popliteal venous segment thrombus in patients with acute mixed deep vein thrombosis (DVT) treated with CFVA-CDT and CVA-CDT. Compared to CFVA-CDT, CVA-CDT can improve the patency rate of the femoral-popliteal venous segment.

Objective To analyze the current status of clinical trial registration of common anorectal diseases in Chinese Clinical Trial Registry(ChiCTR)and the research of TCM.Methods The ChiCTR database was retrieved to collect and organize clinical trials related to hemorrhoids,anal fissures,anal fistulas,perianal abscesses,and perianal eczema.The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to December 10,2023.Characterization of included registration trials was analyzed.Results A total of 148 registered projects were included,75 of which were TCM-related clinical trials.Among them,134 clinical trials were pre-registered and 121 passed the ethical review.Shanghai,Jiangsu,Guangdong,Beijing and Sichuan accounted for 76.35％of the total number of registrations,and the largest number of registered projects was in Shuguang Hospital affiliated with Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.The top 3 funding sources were local finance,self-funding and hospital funding.The registered projects were mainly intervention studies.114 studies used randomized methods and 34 studies were blinded.Conclusion At present,the number of ChiCTR-registered clinical trials on anorectal diseases is on an increasing trend,and the treatment of anorectal diseases with TCM has obvious characteristics.However,there are cases of irregular filling of registration content and uneven regional distribution.

Objective To explore the efficacy of a compound nutrition preparation on wound healing after acute trauma and investigate the underlying mechanism primarily.Methods After skin wound model was successfully constructed on totally 60 male SD rats surgically,they were randomly divided into control group(CON group),whey protein group(WP group)and low-and high-dose nutritional formula groups(LDF and HDF groups),with 15 animals in per group.From the next day after surgery,the rats in each group were given corresponding nutritional interventions for 2 weeks.During the intervention,the wound conditions were observed and recorded,and the wound area was measured.The samples were collected on the 3rd,7th and 14th days after surgery,respectively.Serum albumin(ALB),prealbumin(PA),total protein(TP),inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6 and IL-10),immunoglobulins(IgA,IgG and IgM)and hydroxyproline(Hyp)were detected by the corresponding reagent kits.The histopathologic changes of wound were observed with HE staining.Masson staining was used to observe the collagen fiber deposition in wound tissue.The angiogenesis of wound tissue was evaluated by immunohistochemical staining.Results Compared with the CON group,the wound healing speed,collagen synthesis and angiogenesis speed were significantly accelerated in the WP group,LDF group and HDF group(P＜0.05),and the effects were the most obvious in the HDF group.On the 3rd day after surgery,in the WP,LDF and HDF groups,the serum ALB,PA and TP levels were significantly increased(P＜0.05),serum TNF-α and IL-1β levels were obviously decreased(P＜0.05),and serum IL-10 level was notably increased(except WP group)when compared with the CON group.The serum IgG and IgM levels were significantly increased in the LDF group and HDF group(P＜0.05)and significant increment of IgA was only observed in the HDF group(P＜0.05).On the 7th day after modeling,the levels of ALB,PA and TP were significantly increased(P＜0.05),the levels of TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 were obviously decreased(P＜0.05),and the levels of IL-10 were remarkably increased(P＜0.05)in the HDF group than the CON group;The LDF group and HDF group had significantly elevated serum IgG and IgM levels(P＜0.05),but only the former group had statistically increased serum IgA level(P＜0.05).On the 14th day after modeling,the HDF group had significantly increased levels of ALB and TP(P＜0.05),decreased levels of IL-1β(P＜0.05),and raised levels of IgG and IgM when compared with the CON group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Our compound nutrition preparation promotes wound healing in rat model of acute trauma,which might be related to its improving the nutritional status,promoting collagen synthesis,and thus alleviating inflammatory response and enhancing immune function.

Aim To investigate the antidepressant mechanism of hyperforin via the utilization of single-cell sequencing technology.Methods C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the control group,depres-sion model group,and hyperforin intervention group.The chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS)model was induced and drug interventions were administered for 28 d.Behavioral experiments were conducted to as-sess depressive symptoms,and hippocampal tissue was collected for single-cell RNA sequencing.Key cell populations and differentially expressed genes across groups were identified,followed by PPI network,GO,and KEGG enrichment analysis.Results Behavioral experiments indicated that CUMS successfully induced depressive symptoms in mice,while hyperforin im-proved depressive behavior.In the depression model group,the proportion of brain perivascular macrophages(PVM)increased,and this proportion decreased after hyperforin intervention,approaching the level seen in the control group.The top 20 common differentially ex-pressed genes in the PVM subpopulation were Saa3,Hbb-bs and Ccl24.PPI network analysis identified core targets,including Ccl2,Dhx9,C3,Msr1,Cxcl2 and Cx3cr1.KEGG enrichment analysis revealed pathways related to chemokines,phagosome formation,and inosi-tol phosphate metabolism.Conclusion The antide-pressant mechanism of hyperforin may be related to the regulation of Ccl24 and its related chemokine signaling pathway by PVM.

Objective:To analyze the relevant studies on fertility concerns intervention programs for breast cancer survivors of childbearing age, and identify the specific content, outcome indicators and intervention effects of intervention, in order to provide reference for clinical staff to implement relevant intervention.Methods:According to the research method of scope review, the studies on the fertility concerns with breast cancer patients of childbearing age in China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang, VIP, China Biomedical Literature Database, CINAHL, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science etc. were searched. The search period was from database establishment to May 9, 2024. The included literature was classified and analyzed.Results:A total of 12 articles were included, 9 were randomized controlled trials, 2 were self-controlled before and after studies, and 1 was a prospective cohort study. Fertility concerns intervention programs included group fertility counseling centered on couples, fertility support based on a multidisciplinary team collaboration model, and fertility management based on "Internet + reproductive health". The duration of intervention was usually 4 or 24 weeks. The intervention had different effects on the level of fertility concerns, psychological state and marital status.Conclusions:At present, the intervention programs for fertility concerns of breast cancer survivors of childbearing age reflect the importance, professionalism, immediacy and interactivity, but China is in the initial stage, and there are still shortcomings in multidisciplinary teams, fertility referral system, and Internet platform construction. Future research should build a breast cancer fertility intervention program suitable for our country, and promote its application through the Internet.
