Ulcerative colitis （UC）， a chronic， non-specific inflammatory bowel disease with typical symptoms such as abdominal pain， diarrhea， and bloody stools， demonstrates a high relapse rate and difficulty in curing. Sishenwan， first recorded in Internal Medicine Abstract （Nei Ke Zhai Yao）， are a classic prescription for treating diarrhea caused by deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. The core therapeutic principle of Sishenwan is warming and tonifying the spleen and kidney， and astringing the intestine and stopping diarrhea. In recent years， Sishenwan have demonstrated distinct advantages in the clinical treatment of UC. The pathogenesis of UC involves multiple factors， including immune dysregulation and gut microbiota imbalance. Although Western medicine is effective in the short term， its side effects， high relapse rate， and resistance associated with long-term use pose substantial challenges. Sishenwan have shown excellent clinical outcomes in the treatment of UC due to deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. Modern clinical studies indicate that Sishenwan， used alone or in combination with Western medicine or other Chinese medicine compound prescriptions， significantly improve the clinical efficacy in treating UC due to deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. Sishenwan effectively alleviate core symptoms such as mucus， pus， and blood in stools， and persistent abdominal pain， reduce Mayo scores and the relapse rate， and improve patients' quality of life. Research on the material basis reveals that Sishenwan contain multiple active ingredients such as psoralen， isopsoralen， and evodiamine. Mechanism studies indicate that Sishenwan inhibit the inflammatory cascade reactions by regulating the signal network through multiple targets. Sishenwan regulate cellular immunity and restore intestinal immune homeostasis. At the microecological level， Sishenwan promote the intestinal barrier repair through the "microbiota-metabolism-immunity" axis. The current research still needs to be deepened in aspects such as the mining of specific biomarkers for syndromes and the exploration of the collaborative mechanism of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. In the future， a full-chain system covering syndrome differentiation， targeting， and monitoring needs to be constructed for promoting the paradigm transformation of Sishenwan into precision drugs. This review systematically explains the treatment mechanism of Sishenwan regarding the combination of disease and syndrome and its multi-target regulatory characteristics， providing a theoretical basis and transformation direction for the treatment of UC with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

Objective:To explore the safety and long-term efficacy of transvaginal reconstructive pelvic surgery (TVRPS) in ≥70-year-old women with severe pelvic organ prolapse (POP).Methods:A single-center, prospective cohort study was conducted on 343 elderly women patients with severe POP who received TVRPS at the Fourth Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital, Medical School of Chinese PLA from March 2007 to September 2024. There were 297 cases (86.6%, 297/343) of Ⅲ degree and 46 cases (13.4%, 46/343) of Ⅳ degree prolapse respectively. Among them, anterior pelvic prolapse accounted for 80.8% (277/343), and those with prolapse in two or more sites accounted for 30.0% (103/343). The age was (74.2±3.4) years (range: 70 to 89 years old). There were 300 cases (87.5%, 300/343) with more than one internal medicine disease. Preoperative general conditions were assessed using American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification system (ASA) and American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program-frailty index (ACS NSQIP-FI). TVRPS surgeries included transvaginal hysterectomy, salpingooophorectomy, high uterosacral ligament suspension, sacrospinous ligament fixation, native tissue and mesh repair of the anterior and posterior vaginal walls, mid-urethral sling for anti-urinary incontinence, and levator anal muscle folding suture and perineal repair. Perioperative complications were evaluated using Clavien-Dindo classification system. The objective effect of TVRPS was determined based on pelvic organ prolapse quantification system (POP-Q), and the subjective results were evaluated using pelvic floor distress inventory-short form 20 (PFDI-20), pelvic floor impact questionnaire-short form 7 (PFIQ-7) and patient global impression of improvement (PGI-I).Results:All patients had a preoperative ASA grade of ≤gradeⅡ, and ACS NSQIP-FI score of ≤0.27. All patients safely and successfully underwent all TVRPS surgeries. The operation time was (154.2±43.2) minutes. The perioperative morbidity and mortality rate were 0.6% (2/343) and 0 (0/343) respectively. None of the patient needed blood transfusion. The follow-up time was (7.5±4.3) years, with the longest being 17 years. Thirty-four cases (9.9%, 34/343) were lost to follow-up, and 22 cases (6.4%, 22/343) died of internal diseases during the follow-up period. The point values of Aa, Ba, C, Ap and Bp in the POP-Q system were significantly decreased after the operation (all P<0.01), the genital hiatus was significantly shortened (all P<0.01), and the perineal body was significantly elongated (all P<0.01). The scores of PFDI-20 and PFIQ-7 were significantly lower than those before the operation (all P<0.01). There were 332 cases (96.8%, 332/343) with an overall symptom impression improvement score of PGI-I≤2. Conclusion:The results on 343 elderly women with severe POP aged an average of 74.2 years show that for elderly POP patients who still have the desire to preserve the vagina and do not meet the conditions for colpocleisis, as long as there is a comprehensive understanding and strict evaluation of the overall condition before the operation, TVRPS is a safe, feasible and long-lasting therapeutic procedure.

Objective:To examine the relationship between perceived stress and clinical practice maladjust-ment,as well as the mediating roles of executive function and depressive symptoms in the relationship among intern nurses.Methods:A total of 624 nursing interns were recruited and followed up during this eight-month longitudinal study.Baseline data(Tl)were collectedon the day of internship orientation(July 2022)with the Perceived Stress Scale(PSS),Geurten Executive Function Questionnaire(G-QEF)and Patient Health Questionnaire Depression Module(PHQ-9).Follow-up data(T2)were collected shortly before the end of the internship(March 2023)with the PSS,G-QEF,PHQ-9,and Nursing Students Clinical Internship Maladjustment Scale(NSCPMS).The chain me-diation effect of executive function and depressive symptoms in the relationship between perceived stress and clini-cal practice maladjustment was analyzed.Results:The PSS scores at T1 significantly predicted the NSCPMS scores at T2(β=-1.00,P＜0.001).Executive function and depressive symptosm jointly mediated the relationship be-tween perceived stress and clinical practice maladjustment,with a mediation effect value of-0.01(95％CI=-0.026--0.004).Additionally,depressive symptoms alone significantly mediated the relationship between per-ceived stress at T1 and clinical practice maladjustment at T2,with a mediation effect value of-0.06(95％CI=-0.101--0.017).Conclusion:Perceived stress at the beginning of the internships may negatively impact long-term clinical adjustment among nursing interns,potentially through impaired executive function and depressive symptoms.This finding suggests that early prevention measures and interventions to reduce stress at the start of in-ternships are needed to help interns better adapt to clinical practice.

Objective To investigate serum levels of eosinophilic neurotoxin(EDN),interleukin(IL)-13 and transforming growth factor(TGF)-β1 in children with recurrent wheezing of mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP)infection and analyze risk factors of recurrent wheezing with MP infection.Methods A total of 80 children with MP infection were divided into the MP infection recurrence wheezing group(45 cases)and the MP infection non-wheezing group(35 cases)according to the previous history of MP infection with wheezing,and 35 children with acute attacks of bronchial asthma were selected as the asthma group.The levels of EDN,IL-13 and TGF-β1 were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze risk factors of MP infection recurrence and wheezing.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of EDN,IL-13 and TGF-β1 on MP infection recurrence and wheezing.Results Compared with the non-asthmatic group,levels of EDN,IL-13 and TGF-β1 were higher in the recurrent asthmatic group and the asthmatic group(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in EDN,IL-13 and TGF-β1 levels between the asthma group and the recurrent asthmatic group.Univariate analysis showed that the birth weight was lower in the recurrent wheezing group than that of the non-wheezing group,and the proportion of atopic constitution,the first and second degree relatives allergy history,smoke exposure and hospital stay≥7 d were higher than those of the non-wheezing group(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that higher levels of EDN,IL-13,TGF-β1,atopic constitution and smoke exposure were risk factors for recurrent wheezing of MP infection(P＜0.05).ROC curve results showed that the AUC of EDN,IL-13 and TGF-β1 for predicting the recurrence of MP infection and wheeting was 0.688,0.662 and 0.689,respectively,and the AUC of the combined prediction of EDN,IL-13 and TGF-β1 was 0.765,which was the most effective than each single index.Conclusion Serum levels of EDN,IL-13 and TGF-β1 increase in children with recurrent wheezing of MP infection,and their serum levels may predict repeated wheezing in children after MP infection,providing guidance for clinical intervention.

Objective:To explore the characteristics, prevention and treatment strategies of lower urinary tract injury in transvaginal reconstructive pelvic surgery (vRPS).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 24 patients who suffered lower urinary tract injuries occuring in vRPS from January 2005 to June 2021, among which 4 cases were referred to our hospital from other hospitals.Results:(1) In our hospital, 1 952 patients underwent vRPS for anterior and (or) middle pelvic organ prolapse during that study period, with a 1.0% (20/1 952) incidence of lower urinary tract injuries occurring in 20 cases. (2) Ureteral injuries were observed in 14 cases who underwent transvaginal high uterosacral ligament suspension (1.4%, 14/966). The symptoms were relieved after the removal of sutures. (3) Bladder injuries occurred in 6 cases in our hospital, with 4 cases (0.7%, 4/576) in anterior transvaginal mesh surgery (aTVM), one (0.4%, 1/260) in colpocleisis, and one (0.7%, 1/150) in apical suspension for fornix prolapse. An additional 4 cases of bladder injury were referred to our hospital after aTVM. Among the 8 cases of bladder injury during aTVM, 2 cases were intraoperative incidents. Cystoscopy confirmed that the superficial branch or puncture rod of anterior vaginal mesh had penetrated into the bladder. Re-puncturing and placement of the mesh were successfully performed. No abnormalities were observed during a follow-up period of 4-5 years. Postoperative bladder injuries were identified in 6 cases, characterized by mesh erosion into the bladder and formation of calculi. These injuries were confirmed between 6 months to 2 years after vRPS. The exposed mesh and calculi in the bladder were removed through laparotomy or cystoscopy, followed up for 2-12 years. One case experienced slight re-erosion of mesh to the bladder.Conclusions:Lower urinary tract injuries are difficult to avoid in vRPS, particularly in transvaginal high uterosacral ligament suspension and aTVM. However, the incidence is low. Lower urinary tract injuries during vRPS could be easily detected and managed intraoperatively because of the use of cystoscopy. As long-term postoperative complications, erosion of transvaginal mesh to lower urinary tract postoperatively could be treated correctly, seldom with severe sequelae.

Objective:To analyze the positive rate of human enterovirus (EV) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples, and the clinical characteristics of children with positive results.Methods:A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted to analyze the EV detection results of CSF samples from Children′s Hospital of Fudan University from January 2018 to March 2024. The clinical data including clinical diagnosis, clinical manifestations, CSF test, electroencephalogram (EEG) and cranial imaging examination, use of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg), and prognosis of the children with positive results were collected.Results:A total of 7 025 CSF samples collected from 6 614 children were sent for EV testing. The positive rate of EV in CSF samples was 1.7%(117/7 025), and the positive rates in spring, summer, autumn and winter were 6.7‰(11/1 645), 37.9‰(76/2 003), 12.5‰(21/1 680), and 5.3‰(9/1 697), respectively. The overall positive rate of total cases was 1.6%(109/6 614). The 109 positive cases were aged 60 days (two days to 13 years old). The clinical diagnosis of central nervous system infection was 64.2%(70/109), and sepsis was 24.8%(27/109). Fever, consciousness disorder and convulsion were present in 78.0%(85/109), 25.7%(28/109) and 17.4%(19/109) of cases, respectively. Among the 91 cases who completed cranial computed tomography and/or magnetic resonance imaging, abnormal brain lesions, ventriculomegaly and brain hernia were present in 31.9%(29/91), 26.4%(24/91) and 1.1%(1/91) of cases, respectively. While among the 76 cases who completed EEG, abnormalities were present in 38.2%(29/76) of cases. A total of 73 cases were hospitalized, with 19.2%(14/73) receiving IVIg, nine cases resulting in sequelae and one death which accounted for 13.7%(10/73) of hospitalized cases. Elevated white blood cells, decreased glucose, and increased protein in CSF were present in 40.2%(47/117), 35.9%(42/117), and 21.4%(25/117) of cases, respectively.Conclusions:From January 2018 to March 2024, the positive rate of EV in CSF sent for detection in Children′s Hospital of Fudan University is low, with the highest rate in summer. Children with positive results often have clinical features such as fever, consciousness disorder and convulsion. Some hospitalized children have sequelae or died.
