Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiangtang was first recorded in the Treatise on Cold Damage （Shang Han Lun）. This prescription is composed of Bupleuri Radix， Scutellariae Radix， Cinnamomi Ramulus， Zingiberis Rhizoma， Trichosanthis Radix， Ostreae Concha， and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma. It has the effects of soothing Lesser Yang， warming the spleen， and stimulating the generation of body fluid. It is mainly used to treat digestive tract diseases such as chronic cholecystitis （CC）， irritable bowel syndrome， and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Dyspepsia caused by CC presents a variety of gastrointestinal symptoms such as abdominal pain， poor appetite， postprandial fullness， aversion to greasy food， soft stool， and bitter mouth， being a type of biliary dyspepsia. In modern medicine， dyspepsia caused by CC is mainly managed by medical treatment and surgical treatment. Internal medicine mainly focuses on reducing inflammation， promoting the function of gallbladder， resolving stones， alleviating spasms， and relieving the pain for CC， demonstrating definite short-term efficacy but suffering from single effects， high recurrence rate， and poor compliance. Although surgical treatment can cure cholecystitis， it is accompanied by the increased incidence of adverse events such as abdominal pain， diarrhea， and dyspepsia. Modern clinical studies have confirmed that Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiangtang can significantly alleviate the symptoms such as abdominal pain and dyspepsia of CC patients. Pharmacological studies have found that Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiangtang mainly contains active ingredients such as Bupleuri Radix saponins， baicalin， cinnamaldehyde， gingerol， Trichosanthis Radix polysaccharide， Ostreae Concha polysaccharide， and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma total flavonoids. Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiangtang can ameliorate the symptoms of dyspepsia caused by CC by inhibiting inflammatory responses， improving gallbladder contraction and gastrointestinal motility， regulating the bile acid-intestinal flora axis and the brain-gut axis， and modulating blood lipids through multiple targets. By reviewing the previous literature， this article summarizes the research progress in the treatment of dyspepsia caused by CC with Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiangtang and its main active ingredients as well as the pathogenesis of this disease and puts forward the shortcomings and improvement strategies for the current research. The review aims to provide a reference for the further research on Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiangtang in the treatment of dyspepsia caused by CC.

Objective: To investigate the effects of clinical routine X-ray irradiation dose (average irradiation dose: 29.7±0.54 Gy) on the function, apoptosis, activation state and mitochondrial function of platelets during in vitro storage, so as to provide experimental evidence for optimizing platelet irradiation strategies. Methods: A paired experimental design was adopted. Platelets were collected from 12 healthy donors, and each sample was equally divided into the irradiated group and the control group (non-irradiated). All samples were stored for 5 days under standard platelet preservation conditions (22±2℃, continuous oscillation). Flow cytometry was used to detect platelet count, apoptosis rate (Annexin V+ positive rate), activation markers (CD62P, PAC-1, CD42b) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) level. Meanwhile, mitochondrial-specific probes were used to evaluate changes in mitochondrial count, membrane potential and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content. Additionally, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was employed to observe the ultrastructure of platelets, with a focus on mitochondrial morphology, platelet membrane integrity and granule distribution. Results: Within 5 days of storage, the platelet count was (841±89.16)×10 /L in the irradiated group and (824.5±92.88)×10 /L in the control group, with no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P=0.54). The apoptosis rate was (4.94±1.39) % in the irradiated group and (5.50±0.83) % in the control group, showing no significant difference (P=0.31). For activation indicators, the CD62P expression rate was (24.32±7.57) % in the irradiated group versus (25.21±8.13) % in the control group (P=0.43). The PAC-1 positive rates were (12.15±4.43) % and (11.75±3.40) % in the irradiated group and control group, respectively (P=0.44). The CD42b expression rates were (12.14±4.43) % and (11.75±3.4) % in the two groups, respectively (P=0.47). The ROS levels were (31.98±8.1) % and (30.64±5.89) % in the two groups, respectively (P=0.45). No significant differences were found in the above indicators. For mitochondrial function indicators, the mitochondrial count was (55.88±11.49) % in the irradiated group and (53.5±7.24) % in the control group (P=0.57). The ATP contents were (42.45±5.29) % and (41.58±9.50) % in the irradiated group and control group, respectively (P=0.77). The relative membrane potential values were (59.53±10.89) % and (57.49±6.54) % in the two groups, respectively (P=0.47). No significant difference were observed on the mitochondrial function-related indicators. TEM further confirmed that the ultrastructure of platelets in the irradiation group was intact, the mitochondrial morphology was normal, and no pathological changes such as swelling or vacuolization were observed. Conclusion: This study evaluated the impact of conventional-dose X-ray irradiation on platelet storage quality, confirming that this dose does not significant impair platelet count, apoptosis rate, activation status, or mitochondrial function. This finding provides important experimental evidence for the clinical promotion of X-ray irradiation technology and suggests its potential as a safe alternative to γ irradiation. Future studies could further expand the sample size and extend the observation period to verify the effects of X-ray irradiation on long-term platelet storage and post-transfusion in vivo survival rate.

Objective To analyze the status quo of cognitive frailty (CF) in community elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its correlation with sleep quality, anxiety and depression. Methods Elderly patients with COPD receiving health management in the center were selected from July 2023 to June 2024. The general data of patients were collected and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Fried Frailty Phenotype (FP), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) were used for investigation, and the above scores were analyzed. All patients were divided into CF group (n=129) and non-CF group (n=319) according to MMSE score and FP score. Univariate and multivariate logistic analyses were used to analyze the influencing factors of CF in elderly COPD patients. Results Pearson correlation analysis showed that MMSE score was significantly negatively correlated with PSQI score and HADS score in elderly COPD patients (P<0.05), and FP score was significantly positively correlated with PSQI score and HADS score (P<0.05). After logistic regression analysis, it was found that education level, marital status and sleep time were protective factors of CF in elderly COPD patients (P<0.05), and PSQI score and HADS score were risk factors of CF in elderly patients with COPD (P<0.05). Conclusion CF in community elderly COPD patients is related to sleep quality, sleep duration and anxiety and depression. It is necessary to take clinical measures to improve the sleep quality and psychological status, so as to avoid or slow down the occurrence of CF.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of pharmaceutical quality control on the efficiency and outcomes of standardized medication therapy management （MTM） services for patients with coronary heart disease by using Economic， Clinical and Humanistic Outcomes （ECHO） model. METHODS This study collected case data of coronary heart disease patients who received MTM services during January-March 2023 （pre-quality control implementation group， n＝96） and June-August 2023 （post-quality control implementation group， n＝164）. Using propensity score matching analysis， 80 patients were selected from each group. The study subsequently compared the economic， clinical， and humanistic outcome indicators of pharmaceutical services between the two matched groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups after matching （P＞0.05）. Compared with pre-quality control implementation group， the daily treatment cost （16.26 yuan vs. 24.40 yuan， P＜0.001）， cost-effectiveness ratio [23.12 yuan/quality-adjusted life year （QALY） vs. 32.32 yuan/QALY， P＜0.001]， and the incidence of general adverse drug reactions （2.50% vs. 10.00%， P＝0.049） of post-quality control implementation group were decreased significantly； the utility value of the EuroQol Five-Dimensional Questionnaire （0.74± 0.06 vs. 0.71±0.07， P＝0.003）， the reduction in the number of medication related problems （1.0 vs. 0.5， P＜0.001）， the medication adherence score （[ 6.32±0.48） points vs. （6.10±0.37） points， P＝0.001]， and the satisfaction score （[ 92.56±1.52） points vs. （91.95±1.56） points， P＝0.013] all showed significant improvements. Neither group experienced serious adverse drug reactions. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of new adverse reactions between the two groups （1.25% vs. 3.75%， P＝0.310）. CONCLUSIONS Pharmaceutical quality control can improve the quality of pharmaceutical care， and the ECHO model can quantitatively evaluate the effect of MTM services， making pharmaceutical care better priced and more adaptable to social needs， thus being worthy of promotion.

Objective:By comparing the relevant image manifestations and diagnostic results of high resolution CT (HRCT) and digital radio graphy (DR), to deeply explore the clinical application value of HRCT in the diagnosis and staging of occupational pneumoconiosis.Methods:A total of 180 pneumoconiosis patients with different stages diagnosed in Guangzhou Twelfth People's Hospital from January 2022 to May 2023 were selected as the research objects by systematic sampling method, and their HRCT and DR examinations were performed. The display of lung imaging features of patients with pneumoconiosis by the two examination methods was analyzed, and the chi-square test and rank sum test were used to compare the differences in diagnostic staging results and the detection of pulmonary complications.Results:Among the patients with pneumoconiosis, there were 174 males and 6 females, with an age of (53.11±12.22) years old and a working age of (14.94±11.43) years. The number of lung areas with category 0 small opacity profusion in the HRCT images of patients was less than that in the DR images, and the number of lung areas with category 1 small opacity profusion was more than that in the DR images ( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the number of lung areas with category 2 and category 3 small opacity profusion detected by the two images ( P>0.05). The distribution of diagnostic differences between HRCT and DR images for the staging of pneumoconiosis was statistically significant ( P<0.05), and the detection rates of HRCT for pneumoconiosis complicated with pulmonary tuberculosis, pneumonia, atelectasis, lymph node tumefaction, and pleural thickening were all higher than those of DR ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:In the diagnosis of pneumoconiosis, HRCT has advantages over DR images in showing the fine structure of the lungs, determining the degree and extent of lesions. It is of great significance for discovering and differentiating complications of pneumoconiosis, and providing an important basis for clinical staging.

Objective:To explore the effects of adjuvant therapy by hyperbaric oxygen for high-energy lower limb fractures.Methods:This prospective case-control study enrolled the patients with high-energy lower extremity fracture who had been admitted to Department of Orthopaedics, Beijing Luhe Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2021 to December 2022. Their fracture types included tibial plateau ones, pilon ones, ankle ones complicated with dislocation, and calcaneal ones. The patients were randomly divided into a control group receiving routine orthopedic treatment and a trial group receiving adjuvant therapy by hyperbaric oxygen in addition to routine orthopedic treatment using a random number table. The first adjuvant therapy by hyperbaric oxygen was conducted in the trial group within 48 h after injury before the timing for surgery was decided according to the soft tissue swelling at the affected limb. Follow-up was conducted until one year after surgery. The early and late wound complications, time from injury to surgery, and hospital stay were compared between the 2 groups.Results:A total of 160 patients with high-energy lower extremity fracture were enrolled in this study. Eventually, 7 patients were excluded, 72 patients [48 males and 24 females, with an age of (46.3±12.5) years] included in the trial group and 81 patients [61 males and 20 females, with an age of (47.8±13.4) years] in the control group. There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, indicating comparability ( P>0.05). The incidence of early wound complications in the trial group was 5.6% (4/72), significantly lower than that in the control group [18.5% (15/81)] ( P<0.05). The incidences of late wound complications in the trial and control groups were 12.5% (9/72) and 9.9% (8/81) respectively, showing no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05). The time from admission to surgery was respectively 4 (2, 8) days and 4 (2, 6) days, and the hospital stay respectively 10 (7, 14) days and 9 (6, 12) days for the trial and control groups, showing no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of high-energy lower extremity fractures, adjuvant therapy by hyperbaric oxygen can reduce the incidence of early wound complications without increasing the hospital stay, but it does not reduce the incidence of late wound complications or shorten the preoperative waiting time.

Objective To analyze the clinical application of the Donabedian-based structure-process-result three-dimensional quality evaluation model for the prevention of stress injury in bone tumor surgery.Methods A total of 284 patients with bone tumor who were admitted to The Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from January 2022 to December 2023 were enrolled and assigned to two groups according to the random number table.The control group received routine nursing.In the observation group,the Donabedian-based structure-process-result three-dimensional quality evaluation model was applied to prevent the stress injury in bone tumor surgery.The indexes of the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results Before intervention,there was no significant difference in scores between the two groups(P>0.05).After intervention,the scores of stress injury behavior,skill and knowledge in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of stress injury in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).There was significant difference in nursing satisfaction between the two groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Donabedian-based structure-process-result three-dimensional quality evaluation model can not only enhance the self-care ability of the patients undergoing bone tumor surgery,but also prevent stress injury,thus improving patient satisfaction.

Objective To evaluate the gap between China's top-tier medical institutions and top-tier international medical institutions,and to provide references for the construction of first-class medical science discipline in China.Methods Using globally recognized rankings of medical institutions,we selected 24 top-tier international medical institutions and 11 top-tier Chinese medical institutions.Publicly available,general,and comparable data on indicators were collected to analyze the performance and gaps between top-tier international and Chinese medical institutions in human resources development,talent cultivation,scientific research,social services,and discipline construction.Results In the field of medicine,the largest gap between top-tier international and Chinese medical institutions was in high-level talent.Specifically,the average numbers of individuals who are Clarivate Analytics'Highly Cited Researchers,who are Nobel Prize laureates in Physiology or Medicine,and who serve on advisory boards or editorial boards of top medical journals,and who rank among the Top 2 000 Medicine Scientists were 1.00,0.09,0.45 and 4.00,respectively,among top-tier Chinese medical institutions,while those of the top-tier international medical institutions were 131.46,118.25,9.72,and 6.76 times,respectively,those of the Chinese medical institutions.The second largest gap was in social services and medical innovation.The average proportion of industrial collaboration papers and the number of clinical trials of China's top-tier medical institutions were 1.51％and 1 851,respectively,while those of international top-tier medical institutions were 3.62 and 1.87,times,respectively,those of top-tier Chinese medical institutions.However,the average number of(untranslated)patents held by top-tier international medical institutions was only 15％ of that of China's top-tier medical institutions.The third largest gap was in scientific research.The average number of papers published in New England Journal of Medicine,Journal of the American Medical Association,The Lancet,and British Medical Journal,the percentage of hot papers in papers included in Web of Science,the percentage of highly cited papers,the percentage of international collaboration papers,the total number of citations per paper,category normalized citation impact(CNCI),and the number of publications of top-tier Chinese medical institutions were 78,0.03％,1.39％,22.55％,19.61,1.26,30 706,while those of the top-tier international medical institutions were 6.96,2.66,2.57,2.15,1.83,1.58 and 1.54 times those of the Chinese medical institutions,respectively.However the average percentage of zero-citation papers of top-tier international medical institutions was only 71％of that of China's top-tier medical institutions.Furthermore,in discipline development,the average overall scores of the Times Higher Education(THE)and QS rankings for medicine-related disciplines of top-tier Chinese medical institutions were 72.84 and 69.30,respectively,while those of top-tier international medical institutions were 1.38 and 1.21 times those of the Chinese medical institutions.However,in terms of talent cultivation,the average number of students of China's top-tier medical institutions was 10724,which is roughly double that of international institutions.Conclusion Currently,China's top-tier medical institutions are still in a basic stage that emphasizes the quality of talent cultivation and medical services.There is considerable room for development and potential for catching up in multiple aspects,especially in high-level talent,medical research,and innovation.It is recommended that the construction experience of top-tier international medical institutions should be fully utilized to build China's first-class medical science discipline.

Objective:This study aims to determine the risk perception, evacuation decision-making, and influencing factors related to typhoon disasters among public.Methods:A cross-sectional study will be conducted in residents of Hainan from September 2024 to January 2025. The study will employ chi-square tests, t-tests, and binary logistic regression analysis to examine factors influencing evacuation behavior decisions. Furthermore, structural equation modeling based on ordered choice model will be constructed to validate the mechanisms through which risk perception affects evacuation decision-making processes.Results:Among 517 respondents from 11 administrative districts (counties) in Hainan Province, 62.09% of the residents were willing to evacuate. The decision of public evacuation behavior was significantly related to disaster knowledge, official trust, risk perception, source of warning information and some demographic characteristics. Structural equation modeling demonstrated that warning information sources positively correlated with disaster knowledge and official trust (path coefficients: 0.363, 0.315, both P < 0.001). Both disaster knowledge and official trust showed positive correlations with risk perception (path coefficients: 0.157, 0.165, both P < 0.001), while risk perception positively influenced evacuation decisions (path coefficient: 0.137, P = 0.003). Moreover, source of warning information, disaster knowledge and official trust further positively affect evacuation behavior decision through risk perception, a key mediating variable. Conclusions:Disaster knowledge, official trust, risk perception and other factors can directly or indirectly affect the evacuation behavior of the public following the typhoon disaster. In typhoon-prone areas, it is recommended to enhance public risk perception through strategies such as authoritative training, diversified early warning channels, and improving government credibility, thereby promoting disaster preparedness and evacuation behaviors.

Objective To explore common target genes related to aging and osteoporosis using data from public databases and to screen for small molecule compounds with potential therapeutic effects.Methods Osteoporosis datasets GSE56814 and GSE56815 were downloaded and merged from the public gene expression database(Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)).Senescent genes were selected and merged from the genecard database and the cell age database.Data cleaning and differential gene selection were performed using R software,and a volcano plot was created.Weighted gene co-expression network analysis was performed to screen out key modules and genes,and the machine learning methods were employed to screen target genes.A Venn diagram was drawn using the the Microbioinformatics platform,and cytoscape software was used to visualise protein interactions results.Interaction analysis of differentially encoded proteins was carried out using the STRING database,and prediction of small molecule compounds was carried out using Cmap database.Finally,Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were plotted to find out the most meaningful target genes,followed by the establishment of a logistic regression model and the creation of a nomogram.Results A total of 127 differential genes were screened using the limma package.Weighted gene co-expression network analysis was performed on the differential genes and 103 highly expressed genes were screened.Three machine learning methods,lasso regression,support vector machine and random forest model,were used to finally obtain four target genes:FOXO3,HIRA,CBX5 and RAD1.The nomogram and calibration curves showed good predictive results.Five small molecule compounds with potential therapeutic effects were identified using the Cmap database:sakuraflavin(O-methylated isoflavone),XMD-885,kangaroo hyoscyamine,everolimus and XMD-1150.Conclusion FOXO3 and HIRA genes have now been confirmed to be the common target genes for aging and osteoporosis,and sakuraflavin has potential therapeutic effects on both conditions.
