OBJECTIVE To investigate the application status of prescription pre-review systems in healthcare institutions of Yunnan province, evaluate their system functions and management capabilities, and provide a practical basis for promoting rational drug use. METHODS A questionnaire survey was conducted among public healthcare institutions at or above the secondary level in Yunnan province to investigate the deployment status of the systems. A capability maturity assessment framework was constructed, encompassing 6 dimensions and 39 indicators, including real-time prescription review, prescription correlation review, rule setting, evidence-based information support, prescription authority management, and system operation management. This framework was then used to evaluate the institutions that had implemented the pre-review systems. RESULTS A total of 100 valid questionnaires were collected, with 37 institutions having adopted prescription pre-review systems, mainly tertiary hospitals. The system predominantly adopted a modular architecture and was embedded into the hospital information system through application programming interfaces and middleware, providing certain capabilities for real-time prescription risk identification. Evaluation results indicated that basic functions such as reviewing indications, contraindications, and drug compatibility performed well, while deficiencies remained in functions related to parenteral nutrition prescription, review of drug dosage for specific diseases, individual patient characteristic recognition, and rule setting. Moreover, the construction of review centers and establishment of management systems were also not well-developed. CONCLUSIONS The overall application rate of prescription pre-review systems in Yunnan province remains low. System functions and management mechanisms require further improvement. It is recommended to enhance information infrastructure in lower-level institutions and explore regionally unified review models to promote standardized and intelligent development of prescription review practices.

Fresh-cut processing constitutes a pivotal technique in the origin processing of Chinese medicinal materials, with a long history documented in multiple materia medica. In recent years, it has garnered national policy support for its ability to prevent component loss and low processing efficiency associated with traditional drying-before-cutting methods. As of August 2025, 26 provinces and municipalities nationwide have cumulatively published 789 species for fresh-cut processing. Among these, 78 were included in the 2025 edition of the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China. However, the practice continues to face common challenges and difficulties, including ambiguous scientific understanding, fragmented standards, limited quality control approaches, and poor process stability. Based on this, this paper synthesises years of research findings to systematically elucidate the core mechanisms of fresh-cut processing. These encompass alterations to herbal tissue structure during cutting, post-processing changes in constituents, and physiological-biochemical processes such as plant stress responses and shifts in endogenous enzyme activity. It also summarises influencing factors, including inherent herbal properties, cutting timing and methods, and environmental conditions like temperature, humidity, and microbial presence. Based on this overview of fresh-cutting mechanisms, subsequent research should advance in four directions:Clarifying the scientific principles of fresh-cutting, overcoming technical bottlenecks, upgrading intelligent equipment, and establishing quality standards and evaluation systems. This study provides a theoretical foundation and scientific basis for future research on fresh-cutting in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), promoting its deeper practical application within the industry and contributing to the high-quality development of TCM industry and the modernization of TCM.

Objective: To investigate the molecular mechanism of Syk in phagocytosis induced by CD36 antibodies. Methods: In vitro, two CD36 monoclonal antibodies, GZ1 (IgG2a) and GZ4 (IgG1), at different concentrations were co-incubated with platelets from CD36-positive blood donors, and the affinity of the antibodies for platelets was assessed using flow cytometry. CD36 positive platelets from donors were labeled with Red-SE. The GZ1 and GZ4 antibodies were added together with dye-labeled platelets to peripheral blood from blood donors for phagocytosis experiments. The expression of the Spleen Tyrosine Kinase (Syk), P-Syk, P38 MAPK and P-P38 were detected using Western blot(WB). In the in vitro phagocytosis inhibition assay, Fcγ receptor (FcγR) antibodies or Syk inhibitor (R406) were pre-incubated with monocytes prior to performing the phagocytosis experiment. In vivo experiments were performed using female C57BL/6J mice. R406 was administered via intraperitoneal injection, followed by tail vein infusion of GZ1 or GZ4 antibodies. Additionally, a treatment group was set up in which the antibodies were infused first, followed by administration of R406. Changes in platelet counts were analyzed using a blood routine analyzer, and antibody binding to platelets was detected by flow cytometry. Results: GZ1 had higher affinity for CD36positive platelets than GZ4. The phagocytosis rate induced by GZ1 was significantly higher than that of GZ4 [(42.12±2.25)% vs (16.25±6.45)%, P<0.001]. Moreover, GZ1-mediated platelet phagocytosis mainly depends on FcγRⅠ of monocytes, while GZ4-mediated platelet phagocytosis mainly relies on FcγRⅡ of monocytes. WB results showed that the GZ1 group significantly upregulated the expression of Syk and phosphorylated Syk (P-Syk), and induced phosphorylation of the downstream P38 MAPK signaling pathway. Pretreatment of monocytes with R406 inhibited the phagocytosis of antibodyopsonized platelets by monocytes. After injecting GZ1 or GZ4 antibodies into C57BL/6 female mice through the tail vein, GZ1 mAbs had a stronger binding rate to the platelets compared with GZ4 mAbs, leading to a significant decrease in platelet count. After pre-injecting R406 into mice, the platelet count reduction in both the GZ1 and GZ4 groups was alleviated, and the binding rate of antibodies to platelets was also significantly reduced. However, administration of R406 after antibody injection failed to prevent the decrease in platelet counts in mice. Conclusion: This study indicates that Syk plays an important role in the phagocytosis of anti-CD36 opsonized platelets by monocytes/macrophages and is closely associated with the activation of the P38 MAPK signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the quality of clinical practice guidelines and expert consensus statements on knee osteoarthritis (KOA) based on the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ (AGREE Ⅱ), thus providing a new perspective for clinical selection as well as guideline development and updating. MethodsA systematic search was conducted for KOA-related guidelines and consensus statements published from November 1, 2019 to December 31, 2025. The databases and platforms searched included CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Data, PubMed, Web of Science, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), SinoMed, Yimaitong, and relevant official websites. Two researchers independently screened the literature, and four researchers used AGREE Ⅱ to score the included documents and completed the quality appraisal after reaching a unified understanding. Subgroup analyses were further performed according to developing organization, document type, medical approach, funding status, and region of development, and longitudinal comparisons were conducted by year of publication. ResultsA total of 23 guidelines and consensus statements were included. The standardized scores of the six AGREE Ⅱ domains, from the highest to the lowest, were clarity of presentation [(70.36±8.13)%], scope and purpose [(67.46 ± 11.44)%], editorial independence [(64.50±20.01)%], rigor of development [(62.24±15.26)%], stakeholder involvement [(55.73±10.29)%], and applicability [(53.89±13.17)%]. In terms of overall recommendation, 6 documents were rated as grade A and 17 as grade B. Stratified analyses showed that professional organizations scored higher than comprehensive organizations. The overall scores of traditional Chinese medicine/integrative medicine and Western medicine guidelines (or consensus statements) were similar. Guidelines scored higher than consensus statements. The overall scores were similar between documents with reported funding and those without reported funding. International guidelines scored higher than domestic guidelines. Longitudinal comparisons showed that the largest number of documents was published in 2021. The overall scores were higher in 2021—2022, and some domain scores declined in 2023—2024. Overall, the quality of recent guidelines and consensus statements for KOA showed slight fluctuations, without a clear linear trend. ConclusionThe included guidelines and consensus statements for KOA can generally serve as references for clinical practice. However, the quality across domains remains uneven, and stakeholder involvement and applicability are still weak domains. Future guideline development and updating should further improve methodological standardization and transparency in reporting.

Heart failure (HF) is the end-stage of various cardiovascular diseases, with high morbidity and mortality. The existing “new quadruple” standard treatment can hardly reverse the core pathological process of myocardial remodeling, and long-term medication may pose risks of drug resistance and adverse reactions. Therefore, new therapeutic targets and strategies are urgently needed. Metabolic reprogramming is the upstream core mechanism regulating phenotypic polarization and functional activation of macrophages, which drives the occurrence and development of HF through the core axis of metabolic reprogramming-immune imbalance-ventricular remodeling and has become a cutting-edge potential target for the prevention and treatment of HF. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has a long history in the prevention and treatment of HF. A large number of studies in recent years have confirmed that different therapeutic methods of TCM can correct the polarization imbalance, restore the homeostasis of myocardial immune microenvironment, inhibit myocardial injury, and delay the pathological process of HF by targeting and regulating the metabolic reprogramming of glucose, lipids, mitochondria, and amino acids in macrophages. This paper systematically expounds the core pathological mechanism of metabolic reprogramming of macrophages in HF, sorts out the research progress of TCM in preventing and treating HF by intervening this target, analyzes the regulatory rules, summarizes the limitations of existing research, and puts forward future directions. This review aims to provide a systematic theoretical reference and new research ideas for TCM clinical diagnosis and treatment and new drug development of HF.

Objective:To explore the genetic diversity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in different types of tuberculosis and its association with clinical features, providing evidence for precise diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis. Methods:This cross-sectional study included 103 cases of tuberculosis (38 with simple pulmonary tuberculosis, 43 with tuberculous pleurisy, and 22 with pulmonary combined with extrapulmonary tuberculosis) from Shenzhen Third People′s Hospital from 2015 to 2018. Paired bacterial strains from lung and pleural effusion/extrapulmonary sites were collected. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was used for drug resistance prediction, and genetic diversity (π value) was calculated as well as differential genes screening. Statistical analysis included paired t-tests and χ2 tests to compare clinical, bacteriological and genetic diversity features among groups.Results:The simple pulmonary tuberculosis group exhibited significantly higher rates of retreatment (71.7%, 27/38), cavitation (70.4%, 19/27), and multidrug-resistant or rifampicin-resistant (MDR/RR) (60.5%, 23/38) compared to the tuberculous pleurisy group (retreatment 11.9%, 5/42; cavitation 11.9%, 5/42; MDR/RR 16.3%, 7/43) and extrapulmonary tuberculosis group (retreatment 9.1%, 2/22; cavitation 18.2%, 4/22; MDR/RR 13.6%, 3/22) ( P<0.05). The overall π values of the MTB strain genomes in lung [(5.94±3.93)×10 ?5], pleural effusion[(6.22±3.51)×10 ?5], and extrapulmonary tissues [(5.83±3.54)×10 ?5] showed no significant differences ( H=0.10, P=0.94). Differential gene diversity analysis revealed that π value alternating genes related to respiration and intermediate metabolism were prominently high [tuberculous pleurisy 32.4% (11/34) and extrapulmonary tuberculosis groups 31.4% (32/102)], while cell wall-associated genes dominated in the simple pulmonary tuberculosis group (42.9%, 6/14). Drug resistance profiles and mutation spectra were identical across isolates from different sites within the same patient. Conclusion:WGS revealed the MTB diversity among different types of tuberculosis. Difference between pulmonary and extrapulmonary environments may impel the adaptive alternations of the bacterial strains to maintain survival with higher overall genome stability. Drug resistance testing of lung-derived isolates may provide references on extrapulmonary tuberculosis treatment.

Bicornuate uterus can cause miscarriage, premature birth, abnormal delivery or infertility. Strassman metroplasty may improve pregnancy outcomes for patients, but uterine rupture, placental implantation, premature birth, and postpartum hemorrhage may occur. The paper presents a case of a complete bicornuate uterus with spontaneous conception after Strassman metroplasty. However, complications such as cervical insufficiency, placenta implantation and premature birth occurred, and the relevant literatures were reviewed. Strassman metroplasty by laparoscopy combined with hysteroscopy for complete bicornuate uterus with adverse pregnancy outcomes is safe and feasible, and may improve reproductive outcomes. However, potential pregnancy and labor complications cannot be ignored.

Objective:
To investigate the levels of knowledge and skills in infectious diseases among school doctors and health teachers in Beijing s primary and secondary schools in 2023, and analyze the influencing factors, so as to provide a reference basis for enhancing the professional competencies of school doctors and health teachers.
Methods:
From October to November 2023, a census method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey among all school doctors and health teachers in 16 districts of Beijing. Chi-square tests and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used perform statistical analysis.
Results:
The awareness rate of infectious diseaserelated knowledge among school doctors and health teachers in primary and secondary schools in Beijing in 2023 ranged from 34.44 % to 98.57%, while the behavior formation rate ranged from 65.90% to 98.64%. The proportions of those with literacy in infectious disease knowledge and behavior among school doctors and health teachers were 82.76% and 85.70%, respectively. Multivariate Logistics regression analysis showed that being a full-time employee, having a bachelor s degree or above, and holding a senior professional title were positively correlated with having literacy in infectious disease knowledge ( OR =1.76, 2.57, 1.42 , P <0.01). Compared to medical professionals, those in education and other professions were negatively correlated with having literacy in infectious disease knowledge ( OR =0.37, 0.55, P <0.01). Being a full-time employee, being female, and age were positively correlated with having literacy in infectious disease behavior ( OR =1.66, 2.18, 1.02, P <0.01).
Conclusions
The level of health literacy for infectious diseases among school doctors in Beijing primary and secondary schools is relatively high. Targeted training on key professional knowledge and skills should be prioritized for individuals with deficiencies in infectious disease prevention and control.
