Digital medical insurance governance， as an important component of digital transformation， improves the efficiency of medical insurance services while facing complex ethical challenges. Taking stakeholder theory as the analytical framework， this paper explored the generative mechanisms， manifestations， and countermeasures of ethical issues in digital medical insurance governance. This study uncovered that accelerated technological iteration and lagging ethical and legal norms， as well as interest conflicts among multiple participants in governance， constituted the major causes of ethical issues. These issues specifically manifested as data privacy leakage， unfair algorithmic decision-making， widening digital divide， ambiguous accountability， and other aspects. To address these issues， this paper put forward systematic countermeasures， such as establishing a dynamic ethical and legal regulatory system， balancing the demands of stakeholders， strengthening technological ethical governance， narrowing the digital divide， and enhancing accountability mechanisms. Through the implementation of multi-dimensional governance strategies， it aimed to balance technological innovation and ethical constraints， advance the inclusiveness， fairness， and sustainable development of digital medical insurance， and provide theoretical reference and practical references for improving China’s digital medical insurance governance system.

Epimedium sagittatum is a perennial herb of Berberidaceae. Its leaves have a long history of medicinal use in China. This plant is widely used as a Chinese traditional medicine，with the main functions of tonifying kidney Yang，strengthening bones and muscles，and dispelling wind and dampness. It can be used for treating kidney Yang deficiency，impotence，spermatorrhea，flaccidity of bones and muscles，rheumatic arthralgia，numbness，and spasms. The chemical constituents of this plant include flavonoids，polysaccharides，lignans，and alkaloids. Flavonoids are the main active ingredients. These compounds show a wide range of biological activities，including cartilage repair，anti-aging，anti-fatigue，cough-relieving，blood glucose-lowering，and anti-tumor effects. Modern pharmacological research has shown that E. sagittatum has definite pharmacological effects on the reproductive system，respiratory system，nervous system，cardiovascular system，skeletal system，etc. It has remarkable effects of helping pregnancy，resisting osteoporosis，controlling diabetes，improving immunity，and inhibiting tumor. Under the background of advocating one health and Chinese medicine，E. sagittatum is widely used in health care products，serving as the main raw material of various products. It has great market potential and is a Chinese medicinal herb with great clinical application and research value. This paper reviews the main chemical constituents and pharmacological effects of E. sagittatum based on domestic and foreign reports， providing a theoretical basis for further study on E. sagittatum and its safe clinical application.

Objective This study aims to investigate the association between remnant cholesterol(RC)and the risk of metabolic-associated fatty liver disease(MAFLD)under the optimal triglyceride(TG)levels recom-mended by different guidelines.Methods The data were derived from the annual physical examinations of elderly people aged 65 and above in a community in 2023.Regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between RC and MAFLD risk.According to the TG normal level(<1.7 mmol/L)recommended by the Chinese Lipid Management Consensus and the TG ideal target(<1.2 mmol/L)proposed by the European Atherosclerosis Society,the individuals were divided into subgroups with different TG levels to explore the association between RC and MAFLD risk in each subgroup.Results A total of 2,800 elderly individuals aged 65 and above were included in this study.The proportion of the individuals meeting the diagnostic criteria for MAFLD was 20.85%,and RC was identified as an independent risk factor for MAFLD(P<0.001).In the elderly individuals with TG<1.7 mmol/L,RC level was not significantly associated with MAFLD risk(P=0.888).In contrast,in the elderly individuals with TG≥1.7 mmol/L,RC level was significantly and positively correlated with MAFLD risk(P<0.001).Interaction tests revealed no significant interaction between the stratification factor and the effect size of RC(P=0.115).In the elderly individuals with TG<1.2 mmol/L,RC level was not associated with MAFLD risk(P=0.505),while in the elderly individuals with TG≥1.2 mmol/L,RC level was significantly associated with MAFLD risk(P<0.001).Interaction tests showed a significant interaction between the stratification factor and the effect size of RC(P=0.011).Conclusion RC is an independent risk factor for MAFLD in older individuals.To reduce the risk of MAFLD related to RC in the elderly,a triglyceride level of<1.2 mmol/L can serve as a reference for identifying early-stage risk.

Irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)is a kind of gastrointestinal dysfunction disease characterized by abdominal pain and abnormal defecation accompanied by changes in frequency or fecal character as the main clinical symptoms,and diarrhea-type irritable bowel syndrome(IBS-D)is the most common.It has been found that Chinese medicine therapy has achieved good results in the treatment of IBS-D through multi-component,multi-target and multi-pathway targeted regulation of intestinal flora.Therefore,based on intestinal flora,this paper reviews the relationship between intestinal flora and IBS-D,the understanding of Chinese medicine on IBS-D and intestinal flora,and the role of Chinese medicine therapy on intestinal flora.

Heterotypic cell-in-cell structures(heCICs)mediate unique non-autonomous cell death,which are widely involved in a variety of important pathological processes,such as tumorigenesis,pro-gression and clinical prognosis.Methylenetetrahydrofolata dehydrogenase 2(MTHFD2),one of the key enzymes of one-carbon metabolism,is highly expressed in a variety of tumor cells.In this study,in order to investigate the effect of MTHFD2 on the formation of heCICs,liver cancer cells and immune cells were first labeled separately by live cell dyes,and the heCIC model was established by using fluorescence mi-croscopy for cell imaging and analysis.After transiently knocking down MTHFD2 in cells by RNAi,we found that the ability of PLC/PRF/5 and Hep3B to form heCICs with immune cells was significantly in-creased(all P＜0.01).MTHFD2 recombinant expression plasmid was constructed by the homologous re-combination method,and MTHFD2 overexpression cell lines were further constructed.Then,the effect of MTHFD2 overexpression on the ability to form heCICs was detected by co-culturing the overexpression cell lines with immune cells.The results showed that the rate of heCIC formation was significantly re-duced after overexpression of MTHFD2(all P＜0.001).In conclusion,this study demonstrated that MTHFD2 is a negative regulator of heCIC formation,providing a research basis for targeting MTHFD2 to promote heCIC formation and enhance the in-cell killing of immune cells.

This study adopted the policy text analysis method,review the historical background of the enactment,aimed to comparatively analyze the international pharmaceutical trade policies of the BRICS countries.The main objectives of the BRICS countries'international pharmaceutical trade policies included ensuring stable and accessible drug supply,expanding exports of domestic products and creating a favorable political environment.For these purposes,Brazil,Russia,and South Africa all ensure drug supply through substantial imports.However,they have also taken measures such as compulsory patent licensing and promoting localization of production by foreign companies to reduce import dependence.India,on the other hand,protects its domestic industry by resisting drug imports to ensure drug supply while simultaneously promoting the export of pharmaceutical products.China continually optimizes approval and data monitoring procedures to align with international standards,creating a favorable trade environment and expanding exports.China should further refine its international pharmaceutical trade policies while ensuring the autonomy of domestic drug research and supply,fostering stronger collaboration within BRICS nations and promoting global access to public healthcare products.
