At present， the systematic excavation of the clinical experience and academic thought of the Sichuan school of Chinese medicine vis-à-vis its dominant disease entities remains fragmentary， and replicable paradigms are scarce. Confronted with empirical fragmentation， data heterogeneity and decision-making subjectivity， the standardised distillation， inheritance and clinical translation of these distinctive experiences has become a critical bottleneck constraining the development of the Sichuan school. The integration of artificial-intelligence technologies in data processing， pattern recognition and intelligent decision-making has rendered deep mining of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） clinical knowledge and patterns imperative. Constructing an intelligent modern TCM diagnostic-therapeutic-evaluative system is now the obligatory route for inheritance and innovation in Chinese medicine， and simultaneously provides a technological breakthrough for intelligent decision paradigms in the dominant diseases of the Sichuan school. Accordingly， this study adopts the regional academic school as its point of entry， focuses on the dominant diseases of the Sichuan school， and proposes an innovative pathway of "four-dimensional data-multi-modal fusion-multi-agent decision-making". Specifically， four data dimensions are defined and instantiated： （Ⅰ） knowledge from classical medical literature and historical case records. （Ⅱ） objective four-diagnosis phenotypic data. （Ⅲ） master physicians' prescribing regularities. （Ⅳ） characteristic mechanisms of renowned formulae. Leveraging multi-modal data fusion and generative artificial intelligence， the entire causal chain of Famous Physicians and Renowned Formulas is explicated to reconstruct the diagnostic-therapeutic cognitive logic of the regional school. Finally， a multi-agent collective-decision model is established and refined for the dominant diseases of the Sichuan school， capable of generating precise， individualised treatment regimens and thereby advancing an intelligent diagnostic-therapeutic paradigm that delivers more efficient and accurate clinical decision support.

The left transradial access is less widely used in neurointervention. This article reports a case of an internal carotid dissection aneurysm with a aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA) type aortic arch. Preoperative assessment showed that a risk of selective vascular catheterization through the right radial artery approach. After switching to the left transradial access, angiography and subsequent intervention surgery were successfully completed. This has accumulated valuable clinical experience for neurointerventional treatment through the left transradial access.

Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics and current status of pertussis in Jingzhou City from 2013 to 2024. Methods Data on reported pertussis cases in Jingzhou City (2013–2024) and hospitalized pertussis cases from two medical institutions (January–May 2024) were collected for descriptive epidemiological analysis. Results A total of 1 553 pertussis cases were reported in Jingzhou City from 2013 to 2024. The average annual incidence rate from 2013 to 2023 was 0.12/100 000, and that in 2024 was 28.86/100 000. The incidence peaked in spring and summer. High-incidence areas included Jingzhou District, Shashi District, and Jiangling County. There was no difference between men and women. The highest incidence occurred in the 0-year-old group, primarily among students, scattered children, and childcare attendees. Hospitalized cases exhibited milder and atypical symptoms. Age>2 months, and admission for treatment at the first visit were the protective factors for severe pertussis, while having a history of patent foramen ovale was the risk factor for severe pertussis. Conclusion Jingzhou City experienced a rapid and significant rise in pertussis incidence in 2024. Prevention and control measures in childcare facilities and schools should be prioritized during spring and summer. Enhancing laboratory testing in medical institutions can facilitate early diagnosis and treatment. Adjusting vaccination strategies for young infants and older children is critical to reducing both incidence and severe case rates.

As traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） culture evolves， the academic thoughts of these practitioners， being a core component of TCM inheritance， are gradually shifting from traditional models to digital and intelligent approaches. However， this process faces challenges， including insufficient standardization of data collection and processing， low inheritance efficiency， and the risk of inheritance alienation. To address these issues， this paper proposed the construction of an intelligent platform following the "intelligence-transmission-modeling-linkage" path. "Intelligence" involves using smart perception technologies to accurately collect and classify diagnostic and therapeutic information from famous TCM practitioners， laying the foundation for digital inheritance； "transmission" focuses on leveraging artificial intelligence to mine and inherit the clinical experience of famous TCM practitioners， thereby establishing a "regional academic schools+group commonality" dynamic inheritance system； "modeling" integrates the academic thoughts and advantageous diseases of multiple schools to develop intelligent diagnostic and therapeutic models of famous TCM practitioners， resulting in personalized treatment plans； "linkage" involves constructing a clinical decision support system of famous TCM practitioners by integrating blockchain and generative intelligence， creating an AI digital avatar of TCM diagnostic and therapeutic knowledge. The "intelligence-transmission-modeling-linkage" intelligent inheritance model not only provides new ideas for the digital inheritance of TCM academic schools， but also offers strong support for the modernization and internationalization of TCM.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical features and genetic variants associated with Multiple mitochondrial dysfunction syndrome (MMDS) type 3 in two children. METHODS: Two children diagnosed with MMDS type 3 at Zhuhai Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital in January 2021 were selected for this study. A retrospective analysis of their clinical data was carried out. Whole exome sequencing was conducted on the two children and their parents, followed by Sanger sequencing for candidate variants and bioinformatic analysis. Both children received comprehensive rehabilitative therapy and were followed up for 3 years. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Zhuhai Maternal and Child Health Hospital (Ethics No. 202380). RESULTS: The two MMDS type 3 children were monozygotic twin girls, aged 9 months, presenting with developmental regression, pyramidal signs, and other clinical manifestations. Cranial MRI revealed widespread abnormal signals and vacuolar changes in the white matter. Whole exome sequencing revealed that both children had harbored compound heterozygous variants of the IBA57 gene, namely c.286T>C (p.Tyr96His) and c.307C>T (p.Gln103Ter). Sanger sequencing confirmed that these variants were inherited from their father and mother, respectively. According to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) guidelines, both variants were classified as pathogenic (PM2_Supporting+PM3_Very Strong+PP3_Moderate; PVS1+PM2_Supporting+PM3). After treatment with vitamins, levocarnitine, ATP, coenzyme Q10, and other drugs, both children showed partial recovery of neurodevelopmental regression, with improvement in feeding and sleep. Over the 3-year follow-up, there was slow but progressive improvement in motor, language, and cognitive development. CONCLUSION The compound heterozygous variants c.286T>C (p.Tyr96His) and c.307C>T (p.Gln103Ter) of the IBA57 gene probably underlay the MMDS type 3 in the twin pair. Clinicians should be vigilant about the possibility of MMDS type 3 in children with neurodevelopmental regression and early cranial MRI findings indicating widespread white matter abnormalities with vacuolar changes, as these may be indicative of IBA57 gene variants.

Objective:To explore the factors influencing researchers' satisfaction with technology commercialization and propose improvement suggestions for enhancing satisfaction.Methods:A questionnaire survey of researchers at Beijing Tiantan Hospital was conducted using simple random sampling. The collected data were analyzed in sequence through descriptive statistics, factor analysis, and structural equation modeling to identify the factors influencing satisfaction with technology commercialization and to construct a structural equation model linking these factors to satisfaction.Results:The path coefficients of service capacity, institutional environment, supporting capacity, and researchers′ participation willingness to satisfaction were 0.35, 0.25, 0.22, and 0.40, respectively, all exerting positive effects, with researchers' participation willingness and service capacity having greater influence; supporting capacity's effect on researchers' participation willingness was not statistically significant. Mediating effect tests indicated that service capacity and institutional environment indirectly enhanced satisfaction through researchers′ participation willingness with significant effects, whereas supporting capacity had a low significance of indirect effect.Conclusions:To improve the satisfaction with technology commercialization in hospitals, targeted work strategies are proposed to enhance the willingness of researchers to participate. Efforts are made to improve the professionalism of hospital technology commercialization management staff. Systemic work systems are established and an innovative transformation ecosystem is created.

Xiaoaiping (XAP) Injection demonstrates the anti-prostate cancer (PCa) effects, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the impact of XAP on PCa and elucidate its mechanism of action. PCa cell proliferation was evaluated using a cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Cell apoptosis was assessed through Hoechst staining and Western blotting assays. Proteomics technology was employed to identify key molecules and significant signaling pathways modulated by XAP in PCa cells. To further validate potential key genes and important pathways, a series of assays were conducted, including acridine orange (AO) staining, transmission electron microscopy, and immunofluorescence assays. The molecular mechanism of XAP against PCa in vivo was examined using a PC3 xenograft mouse model. Results demonstrated that XAP significantly inhibited cell proliferation in multiple PCa cell lines. In C4-2 and prostate cancer cell line-3 (PC3) cells, XAP induced cellular apoptosis, evidenced by reduced B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) levels and elevated Bcl-2-associated X (Bax) levels. Proteomic, immunofluorescence, and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) investigations revealed a strong correlation between forkhead box O3a (FoxO3a) autophagic degradation and the anti-PCa action of XAP. XAP hindered autophagy by reducing the expression levels of autophagy-related protein 5 (Atg5)/autophagy-related protein 12 (Atg12) and enhancing FoxO3a expression and nuclear translocation. Furthermore, XAP exhibited potent anti-PCa action in PC3 xenograft mice and triggered FoxO3a nuclear translocation in tumor tissue. These findings suggest that XAP induces PCa apoptosis via inhibition of FoxO3a autophagic degradation, potentially offering a novel perspective on XAP injection as an effective anticancer therapy for PCa.

Opium is obtained by air-drying the milky latex extracted from the unripe capsules of the opium poppy(Papaver somniferum).This latex is rich in benzylisoquinoline alkaloids(BIA),with major active compounds in-cluding morphine,codeine,thebaine,papaverine,and noscapine.Compound licorice oral solution and compound licorice tablets are derivative drugs containing opium.Initially classified as over-the-counter(OTC)medications,both formulations were later reclassified as prescription drugs by the National Medical Products Administration(NMPA),restricting their purchase without proper authorization.Although the national pharmacopeia standards specify the morphine content in the opium raw materials used for compound licorice oral solution and tablets,they lack mandatory requirements for the detection and quantification of the other four major alkaloids.Given the unique nature of opium raw materials and the stringent regulatory requirements for such drugs,it is imperative to enhance and refine simultaneous detection and control methods for all alkaloid components in these products.Furthermore,the establishment of scientific and reasonable detection and control standards for preservatives in compound licorice formulations is crucial to improving overall product quality management and ensuring drug safety and efficacy.This study analyzes and discusses the quality standards,detection methods,and research progress for opium and com-pound licorice preparations,aiming to explore the potential for technological innovation and ensure the safe use of these medications.
