The classic formula Mulisan is the 45th of the 93 formulas in the Catalogue of Ancient Classic Formulas (second batch) of Han medicine published by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It consists of Ostreae Concha, Astragali Radix, Ephedrae Radix et Rhizoma, and wheat, with the effect of replenishing qi and stopping sweating. It is a common formula in the clinical treatment with traditional Chinese medicine. This study analyzes the historical evolution, composition, dosage, original plants and their processing methods, decocting method, efficacy, indications, and modern clinical application of Mulisan by tracing, comparative analysis, and bibliometric methods. The results showed that Mulisan firstly appeared in the Pulse Classic written by WANG Shuhe in the Western Jin Dynasty. The formulation idea can be traced back to the Important Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold for Emergency in the Tang Dynasty. The herb composition, dosage, efficacy, and indications of Mulisan were first recorded in the Treatise on Diseases, Patterns, and formulas Related to Unification of the Three Etiologies in the Southern Song dynasty. In terms of original plants and their processing methods, Ostreae Concha is the shell of Ostrea rivularis, which should be calcined before use. Astragali Radix and Ephedrae Radix et Rhizoma are the dried roots of Astragalus membranaceus var. mongholicus and Ephedra sinica, respectively, the raw material of which should be used. Wheat is the dried mature fruit of T. aestivum, which can be used without processing, while the stir-fried fruit, being thin and deflated, demonstrates better effect. The composition of Mulisan is Ostreae Concha 8.26 g, Astragali Radix 8.26 g, Ephedrae Radix et Rhizoma 8.26 g, and wheat 7.92 g. The medicinal materials should be ground into coarse powder and decocted with 450 mL water to reach a volume of 240 mL, and the decoction should be taken warm. In modern clinical practice, Mulisan has a wide range of indications, including spontaneous sweating and night sweating caused by Yang deficiency or Qi deficiency. The clinical disease spectrum treated by Mulisan involves endocrine system diseases, neurological diseases, respiratory system diseases, and cancer. This formula plays a significant role in the treatment of internal medicine diseases in traditional Chinese medicine. This study aims to provide a scientific basis for the subsequent research, development, and clinical application of Mulisan.

Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of open abdomen therapy in non-traumatic critically patients.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 23 non-traumatic critically patients who underwent open abdomen therapy in 5 hospitals in China from July 2015 to July 2024 were collected. There were 17 males and 6 females, aged 70(range, 24-84)years. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Repeated measurement data were analyzed using the repeated ANOVA, and pairwise comparison within groups was conducted using the least significant difference method. The Boruta algorithm was applied for analyzing variables related to survival outcomes. Results:(1) Treatment of patients undergoing open abdomen therapy. ① The intra-abdominal pressure, lactate, heart rate, central venous pressure, mean arterial pressure, sequential organ failure assessment score of 23 patients from preoperation to postoperative day 3 were changed from (19.7±5.4)mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (6.1±1.9)mmol/L, (120±14)beats/minutes, (13.1±4.3)cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O=0.098 kPa), (58.8±6.8)mmHg, 13.2±1.8 to (10.6±1.3)mmHg, (2.3±0.6)mmol/L, (95±10)beats/minutes, (8.8±2.0)cmH 2O, (75.2±8.5)mmHg, 10.1±1.6, respectively, showing significant differences in the time effect of changes in the above indicators ( Ftime=46.40, 29.19, 24.91, 11.84, 27.81, 11.71, P<0.05). ② The oxygenation index, total intake, total output of 23 patients from preoperation to postoperative day 3 were changed from (255.0±54.2)mmHg, (5388±1562)mL, (2 520±630)mL to (291.7±25.0)mmHg, (2 886±866)mL, (3 221±923)mL, respectively, showing significant differences in the time effect of changes in the above indicators ( Ftime=7.61, 13.83, 2.97, P<0.05). ③The daily caloric intake, daily protein supplementation of 23 patients from preoperation to postoperative day 3 were changed from (465±116)kcal, (18±5)g to (1 628±472)kcal, (60±18)g, respectively, showing significant differences in the time effect of changes in the above indicators ( Ftime=40.31, 41.23, P<0.05). (2) Patients outcomes after open abdomen therapy. Of 23 patients, 18 cases survived and 5 cases died. The duration of intensive care unit stay and duration of hospital stay of 23 patients were 26(range, 5-82)days and 40(range, 5-98)days. Twelve of 23 patients received renal replacement therapy for 12 (range, 5-32)days. Time of pain and sedation management, mechanical ventilation, antimicrobial therapy, vasopressor therapy of 23 patients were 13(range, 5-74)days, 12(range, 5-74)days,20(range, 5-50)days, 6(range, 2-35)days. (3) Analysis of variables related to survival outcomes for patients after open abdomen therapy. Results of Boruta analysis showed that postoperative high-output enteric fistula, postoperative bile fistula, postoperative intra-abdominal hemorrhage, postoperative enteric air fistula, and preoperative mean arterial pressure were significantly associated with survival outcomes. Conclusions:Open abdomen therapy is effective in the treatment of non-traumatic critically patients. Postoperative high-output enteric fistula, postoperative bile fistula, postoperative intra-abdominal hemorrhage, postoperative enteric air fistula, and preoperative mean arterial pressure reduction are significantly associated with survival outcomes.
