Clinical practice guidelines serve as a crucial bridge linking research evidence, clinical practice, and health policy decision-making. However, the guideline domain continues to face persistent challenges, including duplicate guideline development, variable methodological quality, lack of transparent reporting, insufficient implementation and translation, and delayed updates. Focusing solely on "how to develop a high-quality guideline" is no longer sufficient to meet the modern healthcare system's demands for timely, trustworthy, actionable, and dynamically updated recommendations. The emergence of the guideline ecosystem marks a shift in guideline research and practice from a linear development process toward a more systematic governance model. Rooted in the evidence ecosystem, the guideline ecosystem has its own distinct functional positioning, encompassing recommendation formulation, clinical implementation, and life-cycle updating. Looking ahead, China should leverage guideline registries, integrated quality assessment systems, implementation science, dynamic updating mechanisms, and artificial intelligence technologies to promote the transformation of its guideline system from scale expansion to an ecosystem-based model characterized by high quality and sustainability.

Objective:To observe the effect of electroacupuncture at the Shuigou point on systolic phenotype-related factors and on the JAK1/STAT3 signaling pathway of the middle cerebral artery smooth muscle cells in rats modeling cerebral infarction; and to explore the molecular mechanism of treating cerebral infarction with electroacupuncture.Methods:A total of 108 healthy male Wistar rats were randomly divided into a blank group ( n=6), a sham operation group ( n=6), a model group ( n=48) and an electroacupuncture group ( n=48). The model and electroacupuncture groups were randomly divided into eight phase subgroups at 1h, 3h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 72h, 7d and 14d after the modeling of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), with six rats in each group. The electroacupuncture groups received electric acupuncture at the Shuigou acupoint for 20min after successful modeling. Neurological Severity scoring (NSS) was used to evaluate the neurological impairment. PLN protein expression in the middle cerebral artery and the expression of JAK1 and STAT3 proteins in the rats′ brain tissue were detected using western blotting. PDGF-AA content in the middle cerebral artery was measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Results:Compared with the blank and sham operation groups, the average NSS score and PDGF-AA protein expression had increased significantly in the model and electroacupuncture groups. PLN protein expression had decreased significantly at 12h-14d in the model group, but decreased significantly at 12h-7d in the electroacupuncture group. Compared with those two groups, there was a significant increase in JAK1 protein expression at 1h-72h, 3h-6h, 24h-72h, and14d in the model group. In the electroacupuncture group the corresponding significant increases were over 1h-14d, 1h-6h, 24h, 72h, and 14d. STAT3 protein expression had increased significantly in the model group over 6h-14d and 3h-14d. In the electroacupuncture group those increases were over 6h-14d. Compared to the model group, a significant increase was observed in the expression of PLN protein at 14d, with a significant decrease in NSS at 72h, 7d and 14d. PDGF-AA protein had increased significantly at 6h-7d. For JAK1 protein that was at 12h and 14d, and for STAT3 protein it was over 12h-72h and at 14d.Conclusion:Electroacupuncture at the Shuigou point may regulate the expression of PDGF-AA and the JAK/STAT signaling pathway so as to regulate the normal expression of PLN, and thus smooth muscle contraction to maintain the normal functioning of the middle cerebral artery. This may be one of the molecular mechanisms by which electroacupuncture at the Shuohui point improves nerve functioning in treating cerebral infarction.

Atopic dermatitis （AD） is a common pruritic and chronic inflammatory dermatosis in clinical practice and is one of the diseases responding specifically to traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. With the launch of biological agents and small molecule drugs and the development and implementation of guidelines of diagnosis and treatment， clinical pathways of treatment of moderate to severe AD， and consensus on the whole-process management of AD， the clinical efficacy of moderate to severe AD has been significantly improved. However， there are still many unmet clinical needs that require more effective methods to meet. In response to the Opinions of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on Facilitating the Inheritance， Innovation， and Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the spirit of the National Conference on TCM， the China Association of Chinese Medicine organized more than 20 experts in TCM dermatology， Western medicine dermatology， interdisciplinary fields， and industries to discuss the difficulties and advantages of TCM in the treatment of AD. TCM treatment for AD can not only improve rash and relieve itching but also solve many concomitant syndromes. The abundant external treatment methods of TCM have advantages for different special populations and rash characteristics. The concept of treating disease before its onset in TCM is in line with the chronic disease management mode of prevention and treatment of atopic march and prevention of recurrence. In addition， TCM therapy can reduce the use of topical glucocorticoids and has good safety. Regarding the comorbidity of AD， equal emphasis on TCM and Western medicine and multidisciplinary joint treatment should be advocated to achieve maximum benefit for patients. The exchange of TCM and Western medicine has clarified the positioning and advantages of TCM intervention in AD， providing guidance for clinical and scientific research.

Objective To assess the intervention effect of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) on the mouse model of hematotoxicity induced by subacute benzene exposure. Methods Benzene exposure and NMN intervention were adopted in a 2×2 factorial design, as benzene exposure and non-exposure, and NMN intervention and non-intervention. Male specific pathogen-free C57BL/6J mice were randomly assigned to negative control group, NMN control group, simple benzene exposure group and NMN intervention group, with 12 mice in each group. Benzene exposure of mice in simple benzene exposure group and NMN intervention group was conducted by dynamic inhalation of benzene at a concentration of 325 mg/m³ for six hours per day, five days per week for four weeks (28 days). Mice in the negative control and NMN control group inhaled clean air. During benzene exposure, mice in the NMN control group and NMN intervention group received NMN in drinking water at a dose of 300 mg/kg body weight. Peripheral blood samples of mice were collected for complete blood count analysis and calculation of composite inflammatory indices after 28 days. Results Interaction analysis showed that the counts of peripheral white blood cell, neutrophil, lymphocyte, and platelet of mice in the simple benzene exposure group were lower than those in the negative control group (all P<0.05). Neutrophil and platelet counts in the NMN intervention group were higher than those in the simple benzene exposure group (all P<0.05). The results of main effect analysis showed that the monocyte count of peripheral blood, systemic inflammatory index, systemic inflammatory response index, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio and platelet/lymphocyte ratio of mice in the benzene exposure group increased (all P<0.05), and the basophil count and lymphocyte/monocyte ratio decreased (all P<0.05), compared with the control group. Conclusion Oral NMN alleviates subacute benzene-induced decreases in peripheral neutrophil and platelet counts in mice. This protective effect may be related to the targeted intervention of NMN on mitochondrial energy metabolism disorder and oxidative damage induced by benzene exposure in male mice.

PLN protein expression had decreased significantly at 12h-14d in the model group, but decreased significantly at 12h-7d in the electroacupuncture group. Compared with those two groups, there was a significant increase in JAK1 protein expression at 1h-72h, 3h-6h, 24h-72h, and14d in the model group. In the electroacupuncture group the corresponding significant increases were over 1h-14d, 1h-6h, 24h, 72h, and 14d. STAT3 protein expression had increased significantly in the model group over 6h-14d and 3h-14d. In the electroacupuncture group those increases were over 6h-14d. Compared to the model group, a significant increase was observed in the expression of PLN protein at 14d, with a significant decrease in NSS at 72h, 7d and 14d. PDGF-AA protein had increased significantly at 6h-7d. For JAK1 protein that was at 12h and 14d, and for STAT3 protein it was over 12h-72h and at 14d.Conclusion:Electroacupuncture at the Shuigou point may regulate the expression of PDGF-AA and the JAK/STAT signaling pathway so as to regulate the normal expression of PLN, and thus smooth muscle contraction to maintain the normal functioning of the middle cerebral artery. This may be one of the molecular mechanisms by which electroacupuncture at the Shuohui point improves nerve functioning in treating cerebral infarction.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for delirium after free flap reconstruction surgery in elderly patients with head and neck cancer.Methods:This study retrospectively collected clinical data from 309 elderly patients with head and neck cancer who underwent radical resection and free flap reconstruction surgery in the Department of Operation & Anesthesiology, College & Hospital of Stomatology, Guangxi Medical University from January 2018 to December 2022. Among them, there were 197 males (63.8%) and 112 females (36.2%), with an average age of (66.8±5.5) years old. Based on the delirium diagnostic criteria outlined in the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, patients were evaluated for postoperative delirium within one week after surgery. They were then divided into a delirium group ( n=75) and a non-delirium group ( n=234). Perioperative indicators potentially related to postoperative delirium, including age, gender, past medical history, tumor characteristics, hematological tests, perioperative sleep disturbances, surgical procedures, intraoperative fluid intake and output, anesthetic dosage, postoperative pain, etc, were collected from the relevant medical record system.Variables with P<0.05 were included in a multivariate Logistic regression model to screen for independent risk factors for delirium. Results:The incidence of delirium after free flap reconstruction surgery for head and neck cancer in elderly patients was 24.3% (75/309). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that male gender ( OR=2.802, P=0.005), perioperative sleep disturbances ( OR=7.104, P<0.001), and moderate-to-severe postoperative pain ( OR=6.903, P<0.001) were risk factors for postoperative delirium. Conclusions:Male gender, perioperative sleep disturbances, and moderate-to-severe postoperative pain are independent risk factors for delirium in these patients.
