The Guidelines for Construction of Traditional Chinese Medicine Pharmacovigilance Systems in Medical Institutions （T/CACM 1563.2-2024） were the first special guideline in China to systematically assist medical institutions in establishing a pharmacovigilance system tailored to the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. This guideline was jointly developed with 23 authoritative medical and research institutions in China， under the lead of the Institute of Basic Clinical Medicine， China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences. The purpose of this guideline was to standardize pharmacovigilance work throughout the entire lifecycle of TCM （including research and development， marketing， and application） and to establish a four-dimensional framework of "organizational structure， institutional system， information platform， and vigilance activities". Key components included the establishment of a TCM Safety Committee， the construction of nine core systems， the development of an information platform that complies with International Council for Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use （ICH） E2B standards， alongside the risk monitoring， identification， assessment， and control during clinical trials and post-marketing phases. Therefore， this guideline filled a significant gap in the systemic standards for TCM safety management within medical institutions. Strictly adhering to domestic and international laws and regulations， the guideline compilation involved multiple rounds of expert interviews， systematic evidence integration， and broad consensus. This guideline was specified to be applicable to medical institutions at all levels， primarily addressing core issues， including the difficulty in adverse reaction identification， low reporting rates， and incomplete risk management chains due to the complex composition and diverse application of TCM. The compilation process was scientific and rigorous， ensuring alignment with current national laws and regulations， and was registered internationally. In the future， implementation will be promoted through standardized training， tiered dissemination， as well as a post-effect evaluation and dynamic revision mechanism starting two years after publication. All these aimed to enhance medical institutions' proactive capabilities in preventing and controlling TCM safety risks， ensure patient medication safety， and promote the high-quality development of TCM.

To standardize the clinical application of oral Chinese patent medicines （CPMs）， and address the safety issues arising from their dosage form characteristics， irrational clinical use， and the lack of targeted pharmacovigilance systems， the China Association of Chinese Medicine organized the formulation and release of Pharmacovigilance Guidelines for Clinical Application of Oral Chinese Patent Medicines， aiming to inform the safe clinical use of oral CPMs and related pharmacovigilance work. According to the principles of GB/T1.1—2020 and the Drug Administration Law of the People's Republic of China （2019 revision）， the Institute of Basic Research in Clinical Medicine， China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences， led a drafting group comprising 18 institutions. After multiple rounds of expert interviews， literature retrieval， evidence screening， and extensive solicitation of opinions， the Guidelines were registered internationally. Systematic standardization focused on safety monitoring， risk identification， assessment， control， and other aspects. The Guidelines clarified the characteristics of oral CPMs in terms of safety monitoring， known risks， and potential risks， compared to non-oral CPMs. Then， risk control measures were proposed， including medication in special populations and irrational medication. As a special guideline for pharmacovigilance in the clinical application of oral CPMs， the Guidelines systematically construct a technical system in line with the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， which is essential for improving the clinical safety management of oral CPMs and provides an important reference for medical institutions， pharmaceutical manufacturers， and regulatory authorities.

Macroautophagy (referred to as autophagy hereafter) is a major intracellular lysosomal degradation pathway that is responsible for the degradation of misfolded/damaged proteins and organelles. Previous studies showed that autophagy protects against acetaminophen (APAP)-induced injury (AILI) via selective removal of damaged mitochondria and APAP protein adducts. The lysosome is a critical organelle sitting at the end stage of autophagy for autophagic degradation via fusion with autophagosomes. In the present study, we showed that transcription factor EB (TFEB), a master transcription factor for lysosomal biogenesis, was impaired by APAP resulting in decreased lysosomal biogenesis in mouse livers. Genetic loss-of and gain-of function of hepatic TFEB exacerbated or protected against AILI, respectively. Mechanistically, overexpression of TFEB increased clearance of APAP protein adducts and mitochondria biogenesis as well as SQSTM1/p62-dependent non-canonical nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) activation to protect against AILI. We also performed an unbiased cell-based imaging high-throughput chemical screening on TFEB and identified a group of TFEB agonists. Among these agonists, salinomycin, an anticoccidial and antibacterial agent, activated TFEB and protected against AILI in mice. In conclusion, genetic and pharmacological activating TFEB may be a promising approach for protecting against AILI.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of filiform needle combined with fire needles for cervical radiculopathy(CR)due to wind-cold obstructing the meridians. Methods:A total of 60 patients with CR due to wind-cold obstructing the meridians were randomized into an observation group and a control group,with 30 cases in each group.The control group was treated with filiform needle treatment,and the observation group was treated with additional fire needle point-pricking treatment.The visual analog scale(VAS)and 20-point scale of CR developed by Yasuhisa TANAKA(YT-20)were scored before treatment and after 1,2,3,and 4 weeks of treatments.The tenderness threshold was measured.The local skin temperature was measured by an infrared thermal imager.A safety evaluation was performed after treatment. Results:After treatment,the VAS score in the observation group at each time point was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).The YT-20 score,tenderness threshold,and local skin temperature in the observation group were all higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The VAS score in the observation group at each time point after treatment was lower than that before treatment(P<0.05),and the YT-20 score,tenderness threshold,and local skin temperature at each time point were higher than those before treatment(P<0.05).After 3 and 4 weeks of treatments,the VAS score in the control group was lower than that before treatment(P<0.05),and the YT-20 score,tenderness threshold,and local skin temperature were higher than those before treatment(P<0.05).The group factor effects of VAS and YT-20 scores,tenderness threshold,and local skin temperature between the two groups were statistically significant(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the time effect and the interaction effect between time and group(P>0.05). Conclusion:Filiform needle combined with fire needle or applied alone both can relieve neck pain in patients with CR due to wind-cold obstructing the meridians,and improve the temperature of the neck.The combination of filiform needle and fire needle works more quickly and has better efficacy.
