Systemic lupus erythematosus （SLE）， a refractory autoimmune disease， is among the dominant diseases where traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） shows advantages in the field of rheumatology and immunology. The China-Japan Friendship Hospital hosted the "46^th Youth Salon on Dominant Diseases （Systemic Lupus Erythematosus）" organized by the China Association of Chinese Medicine， which led to a consensus on "the advantages， challenges， interdisciplinary approaches， and translational achievements of integrated TCM and Western medical approaches in the diagnosis and treatment of SLE." The diagnosis and treatment of SLE currently face several challenges， such as frequent misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis in the early stages， difficulty in achieving treatment targets， multiple side effects from pharmacotherapy， and the lack of management strategies for special populations， all of which hinder the fulfillment of the clinical needs of patients. Integrated TCM and Western medical approaches can improve clinical symptoms such as skin erythema， aversion to cold and cold limbs， fatigue， dry mouth， restlessness， and heat sensation in the palms and soles， thereby improving patients' quality of life. The approaches also help consolidate the efficacy of conventional Western medicine， slow disease progression， reduce relapse rates， address multi-organ involvement， and prevent or treat complications. Additionally， they enhance efficacy and reduce toxicity， prevent the side effects of Western medications， help reduce hormone use， and offer distinct advantages in the individualized intervention of special populations， contributing to the whole-process management of the disease. However， evidence-based medical support for this integrated approach remains limited， and the quality of available evidence is generally low. Common evaluation systems and modern research methodologies should be adopted to clarify the efficacy of TCM in SLE treatment. Efforts should be made to carry out high-quality evidence-based medical research， strengthen the development of fundamental and pharmacological research， and further explain the distinct advantages of TCM in the diagnosis and treatment of SLE. Future efforts should focus on advancing the integration of TCM and modern medicine， incorporating multi-omics technologies， individualized stratification， and other precision medicine concepts， in combination with artificial intelligence. Moreover， interdisciplinary collaboration should be promoted to utilize modern technology in exploring the essence of TCM theories and screening effective formulae， thereby comprehensively improving the diagnosis and treatment of SLE through integrated TCM and Western medical approaches.

Objective:To explore the phenotypic heterogeneity among patients harboring identical pathogenic variants in the dystrophin ( DMD) gene by analyzing clinical and imaging data from 7 pairs of male twins with dystrophinopathy. Methods:Clinical and laboratory data of 14 (7 pairs) male twins diagnosed with dystrophinopathy through genetic testing among 1 767 patients at Peking University First Hospital from January 2017 to October 2024 were collected. Eleven patients underwent thigh muscle magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and muscle biopsies were performed in at least 1 case of each pair.Results:Among the 7 pairs of twin patients, 2 pairs had Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and 5 pairs had Becker muscular dystrophy. In terms of variant types, 4 pairs had in-frame deletions, while the remaining 3 pairs had duplication variants, frameshift variants, and nonsense variants, respectively. Clinically, 6 individuals had asymptomatic hypercreatine kinasemia, and 8 had varying degrees of limb weakness. Among the 5 pairs of symptomatic twins, there were differences in the degree of limb weakness. Four individuals showed no significant abnormalities in thigh muscle MRI, 7 showed fat infiltration mainly in the bilateral gluteus maximus and adductor magnus muscles, and 2 pairs of twins had obvious differences in the degree of fat infiltration in muscle MRI. Muscle biopsies revealed dystrophic or mild myopathic pathological changes, with 2 individuals showing severe loss of dystrophin, while the others had partial loss.Conclusions:Dystrophinopathy exhibits significant individual differences. Even among individuals with highly similar genetic background, clinical and imaging manifestations caused by the same pathogenic variant also vary.

As a crucial barrier to ensuring blood transfusion safety, blood virus inactivation technology plays an irreplaceable role in addressing the "window period" of detection, the threat of emerging pathogens, and the limitations of detection technologies. This article systematically reviews the current status and technical characteristics of mainstream blood virus inactivation technologies, and conducts an in-depth discussion on the application prospects and challenges of emerging technologies in this field. Among conventional technologies, the photochemical methods (including methylene blue, psoralen S-59/INTERCEPT system, and riboflavin/Mirasol system) have been widely used in clinical practice due to their broad-spectrum inactivation capacity. However, these methods are associated with functional impairment of blood components. The organic solvent/detergent (S/D) method performs excellently in inactivating viruses in plasma products yet is ineffective against non-lipid-enveloped viruses. Short-wave ultraviolet (UVC) direct irradiation technology eliminates the need for chemical additives, though its inactivation efficiency and compatibility with blood components requires optimization. The chemical modification method, while specifically designed for red blood cells, faces safety challenges such as potential immunogenicity. For emerging technologies, cold plasma technology shows great potential owing to its multi-target synergistic inactivation mechanism, though challenges regarding its biocompatibility and selectivity remain. Electrolyzed water technology has the advantages of low cost and operational simplicity, yet in-depth research is needed on the non-specific damage caused by active substances to blood components. Novel photodynamic therapy significantly improves inactivation efficiency by developing high-efficiency targeted photosensitizers and has broad prospects for combined applications with antibodies, nanomaterials, and other substances. Future development trends point to the "combination therapy" strategy, which leverages the synergy of multiple technologies to achieve the optimal balance between efficient virus inactivation and functional prservation of blood components. The development of such technologies needs to shift from "single-method" to "integrated approach", from "inactivation" to "viability preservation", and bridge the translation gap from "laboratory" to "global application". The ultimate goal is to establish a standardized, automated, and cost-controllable comprehensive blood safety assurance system.

Objective To explore the application effect of five kinds of sarcopenia assessment scales in the sarcopenia screening in the patients with bone tumors.Methods The convenience sampling method was a-dopted to select 198 patients with bone tumor in this hospital from August 2023 to February 2024 were select-ed as the study subjects.The Simplified Five-Item Scoring Questionnaire(SARC-F),the Modified Simplified Five-Item Scoring Questionnaire(SARC-Calf),the Simplified Five-Item Scoring Questionnaire Combined with Age and BMI(SARC-F+EBM),the Mini Sarcopenia Risk Assessment 7-Item Questionnaire(MSRA-7)and the Mini Sarcopenia Risk Assessment 5-Item Questionnaire(MSRA-5)were used for conducting the screen-ing.The Asian Sarcopenia Working Group-2019(AWGS-2019)screening criteria for sarcopenia were used as diagnostic criteria.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and area under the curve(AUC)were used to analyze the predictive efficiency.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value(PPV),negative predictive value(NPV)and Kappa value were compared among various screening tools.Results According to the AWGS-2019 screening criteria for sarcopenia,there were 144 cases in the non-sarcopenia group and 54 ca-ses in the sarcopenia group,and the incidence rate of sarcopenia was 27.27％.SARC-Calf and MSRA-5 had the highest sensitivity(81.48％).SARC-F+EBM had the highest specificity(91.67％).SARC-F+EBM had the highest PPV(70.00％).SARC-Calf had the highest NPV(91.49％);SARC-F+EBM had the highest AUC(0.890),the corresponding cut-off value was 8.5 points,the sensitivity was 83.30％and specificity was 80.60％.The Kappa values of SARC-F,MSRA-5 and MSRA-7 were 0.206,0.336 and 0.324 respectively,pos-sessing the ordinary consistency,while the Kappa values of SARC-Calf and SARC-F+EBM were 0.544 and 0.474 respectively,possessing the medium consistency.Conclusion SARC-F+EBM could be used as the best screening tool of clinical medical staff for sarcopenia in the patients with bone tumor.

Objective Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)is causally associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease(ASCVD).Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9(PCSK9)increases the degradation of low-density lipoprotein receptor(LDL-R),thereby promoting lipid accumulation.This study investigated the mechanism of microRNA(miRNA)-125a-5p in regulating PCSK9 transcriptional expression and lipid accumulation through histone deacetylase sirtuin 6(SIRT6)-mediated histone acetylation.Methods RAW264.7 macrophages exposed to oxidized low-density lipoprotein(ox-LDL)were used to establish a macrophage lipid accumulation model.The cells were divided into eight groups:control group(Group A),ox-LDL group(Group B),SIRT6 agonist group(Group C),si-SIRT6 group(Group D),miR-125a-5p mimic group(Group E),miR-125a-5p mimic negative control group(Group F),miR-125a-5p inhibitor group(Group G),and miR-125a-5p inhibitor negative control group(Group H).Oil red O staining was used to verify lipid ac-cumulation in macrophages.Real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR)was employed to detect the gene expression levels of miR-125a-5p,SIRT6 and PCSK9.Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression levels of SIRT6,histone 3 lysine 9 acetylation(H3K9ac),histone 3(H3),and PCSK9.An LDL-C kit was used to measure cellular LDL-C con-tent.Results Compared with Group A,Group B exhibited increased relative gene expression of miR-125a-5p,decreased relative SIRT6 gene and its protein expression,increased H3K9ac/H3 rati-o,increased relative gene and protein expression of PCSK9,and elevated LDL-C levels,with statis-tically significant differences(P＜0.01).In Group B,a positive correlation was observed between H3K9ac and PCSK9 protein expression(r=0.935 0,P＜0.01),as well as between PCSK9 and LDL-C(r=0.981 3,P＜0.01).Compared with Group B,Group C showed no significant change in miR-125a-5p expression(P＞0.05),but increased relative SIRT6 gene and its protein expres-sion,decreased H3K9ac/H3 ratio,decreased relative gene and protein expression of PCSK9,and reduced LDL-C levels(P＜0.01).In contrast,Group D,compared with Group B,had no signifi-cant change in miR-125a-5p gene expression(P＞0.05),but decreased relative gene and protein expression of SIRT6,increased H3K9ac/H3 ratio,increased relative PCSK9 gene and its protein expression,and elevated LDL-C levels(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Group E,compared with Group B,showed increased relative gene expression of miR-125a-5p,decreased relative SIRT6 gene and its protein expression,increased H3K9ac/H3,increased relative PCSK9 gene and its protein ex-pression,and elevated LDL-C levels(P＜0.01).Group G,compared with Group B,had de-creased relative gene expression of miR-125a-5p,increased relative gene and protein expression of SIRT6,decreased H3K9ac/H3 ratio,decreased relative PCSK9 gene and protein expression,and reduced LDL-C levels(P＜0.01).No significant changes were observed in miR-125a-5p,SIRT6,H3K9ac/H3 ratio,PCSK9,or LDL-C levels in Groups F and H compared with Group B(P＞0.05).Conclusion Epigenetics is an important regulatory mechanism in the development of ather-osclerosis(AS).Elevated LDL-C is a significant risk factor for AS,and increased PCSK9 expres-sion exacerbates lipid accumulation.Imbalance in histone acetylation is a novel mechanism involved in PCSK9-mediated lipid accumulation,potentially serving as an early detection marker for lipid me-tabolism disorders.SIRT6 acts as a protective factor by reversibly regulating PCSK9 transcriptional expression,reducing lipid accumulation,and delaying AS progression.MiR-125a-5p,as an up-stream regulatory gene of SIRT6,targets and inhibits SIRT6 transcription,thereby modulating his-tone acetylation,and may serve as a new target for early screening and prevention of dyslipidemia.

ObjectiveTo study the clinical characteristics and influencing factors of rheumatoid arthritis （RA） in the patients with cold dampness obstruction syndrome. MethodsThe RA patients treated in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Rheumatology of the China-Japan Friendship Hospital from August 2022 to June 2024 were selected. The demographic information， clinical data， laboratory test results， and traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom information were collected for syndrome differentiation， on the basis of which the characteristics and influencing factors of cold dampness obstruction syndrome were analyzed. ResultsA total of 258 RA patients were selected in this study， including 88 （34.1%） patients with cold dampness obstruction syndrome， 53 （20.5%） patients with dampness and heat obstruction syndrome， 31 （12.0%） patients with wind dampness obstruction syndrome， 29 （11.2%） patients with liver-kidney deficiency syndrome， 19 （7.4%） patients with Qi-blood deficiency syndrome， 14 （5.4%） patients with phlegm-stasis obstruction syndrome， 15 （5.8%） patients with stasis obstructing collateral syndrome and 9 （3.5%） patients with Qi-Yin deficiency syndrome. The patients were assigned into two groups of cold dampness obstruction syndrome and other syndromes. The group of cold dampness obstruction syndrome had lower joint fever， 28-tender joint count （TJC28）， and 28-joint disease activity score （DAS28）-C-reactive protein （CRP） and higher central sensitization， cold feeling of joints， fear of wind and cold， cold limbs， and abdominal distention than the group of other syndromes （P<0.05）. The binary logistic regression analysis showed that central sensitization （OR 5.749， 95%CI 2.116-15.616， P<0.001） and DAS28-CRP （OR 0.600， 95% CI 0.418-0.862， P=0.006） were the independent factors influencing cold dampness obstruction syndrome in RA. ConclusionCold dampness obstruction syndrome is a common syndrome in RA patients. It is associated with central sensitization， cold feeling of joints， abdominal distension and may be a clinical syndrome associated with central sensitization.
