Parkinson's disease （PD） is a neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by motor dysfunction. Traditionally， its main clinical features include resting tremor， muscular rigidity， bradykinesia， and postural balance disorders. However， an increasing number of studies have shown that its non-motor symptoms （NMS） exert an even greater impact on patients' quality of life than motor symptoms， severely affecting daily functioning and increasing the burden on families and society. Among these， depression is one of the most common and most debilitating NMS， with statistics indicating that the incidence of depression among PD patients reaches as high as 40%-50%. The pathological mechanisms are complex， involving the interplay between degenerative changes in dopaminergic neurons and disruptions in emotional regulatory circuits， which poses a substantial challenge to clinical treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， characterized by holistic regulation and multi-target intervention， has demonstrated significant advantages in the treatment of PD and depression， offering new insights for managing PD-depression comorbidity. This study integrates research extracted from multiple databases， including PubMed， Web of Science， Google Scholar， and China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， that investigates the potential mechanisms of PD and depression as well as TCM-based treatments for these conditions. The aim is to elucidate the shared pathological mechanisms underlying PD and depression and to explore the therapeutic potential of TCM in effectively combating PD-depression comorbidity through these shared mechanisms， thereby providing valuable insights for the development of targeted therapies.

Clinical practice guidelines represent the best recommendations for patient care. They are developed through systematically reviewing currently available clinical evidence and weighing the relative benefits and risks of various interventions. However, clinical practice guidelines have to go through a long translation cycle from development and revision to clinical promotion and application, facing problems such as scattered distribution, high duplication rate, and low actual utilization. At present, the clinical practice guideline information platform can directly or indirectly solve the problems related to the lengthy revision cycles, decentralized dissemination and limited application of clinical practice guidelines. Therefore, this paper systematically examines different types of clinical practice guideline information platforms and investigates their corresponding challenges and emerging trends in platform design, data integration, and practical implementation, with the aim of clarifying the current status of this field and providing valuable reference for future research on clinical practice guideline information platforms.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the molecular mechanism by which salvianolic acid B (Sal-B) modulates mitochondrial functional homeostasis and alleviates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in mice. METHODS: Mouse cardiomyocyte HL-1 cells were pretreated with 5 μmol/L Sal-B with or without sh-Sirt1 transfection before exposure to hypoxia-reoxygenation (HR), and the changes in ATP production, mitochondrial superoxide activity, substrate oxidation level were evaluated. In the animal experiment, 36 C57BL/6J mice were randomized into 3 groups (n=12) for sham operation or ligation of the left anterior coronary artery to induce myocardial I/R injury with or without intravenous injection of Sal-B+I/R (50 mg/kg). In the rescue experiment, 60 adult C57BL/6J mice were randomized into 5 groups (n=12): sham-operated group, myocardial I/R group, Sal-B+I/R group, I/R+Sal-B+Sirt1fl/fl group, and I/R+Sal-B+cKO-Sirt1 group. Myocardial injury was evaluated with HE staining, and cardiac function was assessed by measurement of the ejection fraction and fractional shortening using echocardiography. RESULTS: In HL-1 cells with HR injury, Sal-B pretreatment significantly increased cellular ATP production, reduced mitochondrial superoxide anion levels, and enhanced oxygen consumption level. In the mouse models of myocardial I/R injury, Sal-B pretreatment markedly ameliorated I/R-induced structural disarray of the cardiac myocytes and improved cardiac ejection. Cycloheximide chase with Western blotting and ubiquitination assays after Sirt1-IP showed that Sal-B significantly inhibited Sirt1 degradation in HL-1 cells. Sirt1 knock-down reversed Sal-B-induced increases in ATP production, reduction in superoxide, and elevation of OCR in HL-1 cells. Cardiomyocyte-specific Sirt1 knockout obviously reversed Sal-B-mediated improvement in cardiac ejection function and myocardial structure damage in mice with myocardial I/R injury. CONCLUSIONS Sal-B promotes mitochondrial functional homeostasis in cardiomyocytes with HR injury and improves cardiac function in mice after myocardial I/R by inhibiting Sirt1 protein degradation.

Objective To investigate the relationship between traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)constitution and body composition such as visceral fat in overweight and obese individuals.Methods A total of 320 overweight/obese patients who visited the Preventive Treatment Center of Foshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between September 15,2023,and September 14,2024,were selected as study subjects.Among them,135 were classified into the overweight group and 185 into the obese group.Data were collected using the TCM Constitution Questionnaire and a body composition analyzer(InBody570).The differences in TCM constitution distribution between the overweight and obese groups,as well as between genders,were compared.The correlation between TCM constitution types and body composition parameters was analyzed.Logistic regression analysis was employed to identify risk factors for biased constitutions in the overweight/obese population.Results Among the 320 overweight/obese patients,phlegm-damp constitution(56.25％)and damp-heat constitution(40.31％)were the most predominant biased constitutions.The proportions of blood stasis constitution,qi depression constitution,and inherited special constitution in females were significantly higher than those in males(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),with the risk of qi depression constitution in females being 6.028 times higher than that in males(P＜0.01).Yang deficiency constitution was positively correlated with protein content but negatively correlated with skeletal muscle mass and body fat mass(P＜0.05).The proportion of blood stasis constitution in the overweight group was higher than that in the obese group(P＜0.01).In overweight/obese individuals with blood stasis constitution,the risk of excessive visceral fat was 2.658 times as high as those without excessive visceral fat.Blood stasis constitution was positively correlated with body fat mass,bone mineral content,intracellular water,and skeletal muscle mass index(SMI),but was negatively correlated with body mass index(BMI)and body cell mass(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Coclusion For overweight and obese populations,special attention should be paid to the management of visceral fat in individuals with blood stasis constitution and to emotional intervention in females.A staged and precise prevention and treatment strategy should be developed by integrating TCM constitution and body composition indicators.

Objective To analyze the clinical manifestations of delayed serological transfusion reactions(DSTR)after platelet transfusion in tumor patients,and to explore the transfusion strategy.Methods Clinical data and laboratory test re-sults of patients with positive antibody screening were analyzed after platelet transfusion in our hospital from January 1,2015 to June 30,2023,and the incidence rate,clinical characteristics and transfusion strategy of patients with DSTR were ana-lyzed.Results A total of 2 553 patients with 6 057 platelet transfusions were reviewed.Eight patients developed DSTR and received a total of 21 therapeutic amounts of platelets,and 5 patients were subsequently transfused with red blood cells.Rh system antibodies were detected in 7 cases(4 anti-E,1 anti-c/E,1 anti-C and 1 anti-c)and Kell system antibodies in 1 case.Conclusion Tumor patients may also develop DSTR after platelet transfusion.It is necessary to pay close attention to the antibody situation and perform matched transfusion when transfusing blood again.

Objective:To analyze the iodine nutrition status of children aged 8 to 10 years in Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2021.Methods:A multi-stage stratified sampling method was used to select non-residential children aged 8 to 10 years from 90 counties in Zhejiang Province. A total of 114 103 children were included in the study from 2016 to 2021. Direct titration method and arsenic-cerium catalytic spectrophotometry were used to detect salt iodine content and urinary iodine level, respectively, to evaluate the iodine nutritional status of children. Ultrasound was used to detect thyroid volume and analyze the current prevalence of goiter in school-age children.Results:The age of 114 103 children was (9.04 ± 0.81) years old, with 50.0% of (57 083) boys. The median of iodine content M ( Q1, Q3) in children's household salt was 23.00 (19.80, 25.20) mg/kg, including 17 242 non-iodized salt, 6 173 unqualified iodized salt, and 90 688 qualified iodized salt. The coverage rate of iodized salt was 84.89%, and the coverage rate of qualified iodized salt was 79.48%. The proportion of non-iodized salt increased from 11.85% in 2016 to 16.04% in 2021 ( χ 2trend=111.427, P<0.001). The median of urinary iodine concentration M ( Q1, Q3) in children was 182.50 (121.00, 261.00) μg/L, among which the proportions of iodine deficiency, iodine suitability, iodine over suitability, and iodine excess were 17.25% (19 686 cases), 39.21% (44 745 cases), 26.85% (30 638 cases), and 16.68% (19 034 cases), respectively. The median of urinary iodine concentration in children in inland areas [ M ( Q1, Q3): 190.90 (128.80, 269.00) μg/L] was significantly higher than that in children in coastal areas [ M ( Q1, Q3): 173.00 (113.00, 250.30) μg/L] ( P<0.001). From 2016 to 2021, a total of 39 134 ultrasound examinations were conducted, and 1 229 cases of thyroid enlargement were detected. The goiter rate was 3.14% (95% CI: 2.97%-3.32%). The incidence of goiter in children in coastal areas [3.45% (95% CI: 3.19%-3.72%), 641/18 604] was higher than that in children in inland areas [2.86% (95% CI: 2.64%-3.10%), 588/20 530] ( P=0.001). Conclusion:From 2016 to 2021, the iodine nutrition level of children aged 8-10 years in Zhejiang Province is generally suitable, and the rate of goiter in children meets the limit of iodine deficiency disease elimination standards.

ObjectiveTo explore the suitability of four qualitative research methods in the development of TCM scale. MethodsTaking the development of "Seven Emotions Scale" as an example， we conducted semi-structured interviews with 31 patients of emotional disorders and 10 healthy people by objective sampling， and collected psychological feelings and emotional cognition data related to seven emotions according to the interview outline. Two qualitative methods， descriptive qualitative research and descriptive phenomenology， were used to analyze the data and construct the item library of the scale. The conceptual framework of the scale was constructed by using commonly used grounded theory and frame analysis. ResultsDuring data analysis， it is found that the themes extracted from descriptive phenomenology were not easily understood by the interviewees， and it is difficult for the researchers to truly achieve the "suspension" required by phenomenology. Considering the feasibility and convenience of the researchers' actual operation， as well as whether the initial purpose of the scale research can be intuitively included in the interviewees' views and feelings， descriptive phenomenology is not suitable for the formation of scale items. Using descriptive qualitative research method to analyze the interview data of healthy people and patients with emotional disorders， 306 and 476 scale items were obtained respectively. Through grounded theory， five selective codes were obtained： physical symptoms， external manifestations， psychological feelings， behaviors and emotional control. Using frame analysis， four themes including physical symptoms， psychological feelings， behavior and emotional cognition were constructed. Both methods can be used to construct the conceptual frame of scale， but the framework analysis is more convenient and can better ensure the transparency of the research. ConclusionDescriptive qualitative research methods can be used to form the item library of TCM scales. Framework analysis is more suitable for the construction of the conceptual framework of the scale than grounded theory， while descriptive phenomenology is not suitable for the development of TCM scales.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of rashes in monkeypox patients through a series of skin biopsies, and examine their pathological features and the most effective tests.Methods:Patients with monkeypox virus infection admitted to Beijing Ditan Hospital from June to August 2023 were identified. Among them, 24 patients underwent skin biopsies for clinical pathological study that were included in this study. Clinical information, rash pictures, and nucleic acid test results were analyzed using histopathology, immunohistochemistry, RNAscope ? hybridization and electron microscopy. Results:All 24 patients were male, including 14 patients with concurrent human immunodeficiency virus infection. Their average age was (32.3±5.4) years. The nucleic acid test confirmed monkeypox virus infection. The clinical feature of monkeypox rashes was solitary rather than clustered distribution, with rashes occurring in similar phase, distinguishing it from herpesvirus. The rashes in these patients were mostly scattered, with an average of (13.0±11.8) rashes, and most commonly present in the perineum, face, limbs, and trunk. The three main pathological features of these rashes were ballooning degeneration of the epidermal spinous cell layer, the characteristic intra-cytoplasmic Guarnieri′s bodies and significant infiltration of inflammatory cells in whole dermal layer. Immunohistochemistry, RNAscope ? hybridization, and electron microscopy can all effectively detect the monkeypox virus. Electron microscopy showed viral replication in various types of skin cells. Conclusions:The study describes the pathological features of monkeypox virus rashes. Pathological examination of skin biopsy samples is helpful to diagnose these rashes. The study suggests that the monkeypox virus has a unique epitheliotropic affinity and can infect various types of cells in the skin.
