Aging has emerged as a cutting edge and hotspot in global life science field， with anti-aging and geriatric disease prevention and treatment becoming critical issues urgently demanding solutions in international medical communities. In the face of the challenge of accelerating global population aging， in-depth exploration of aging mechanisms and the development of effective intervention strategies hold significant scientific and clinical value. This study supported by the national key research and development program of China， employed the essence-Qi-spirit theory of Qiluo doctrine as its guiding framework， focusing on the key scientific issue of the core traditional Chinese pathogenesis of aging， namely "depletion of kidney essence， deficiency of primordial Qi， and impairment of body and spirit". The treatment principle of "tonifying the kidney to replenish essence， harmonizing Yin and Yang， warming and invigorating primordial Qi， and nourishing the body and spirit" was established. Centered on holistic aging， systemic aging， and aging-related diseases， the research integrated multidisciplinary research approaches to construct multi-modal aging models and a multi-dimensional evaluation system， and it utilized multi-omics technologies to deeply analyze aging mechanisms. By systematically reviewing historical kidney-tonifying and anti-aging formulas and combining big data with artificial intelligence technologies， an information database of anti-aging traditional Chinese medicine substance was developed to reveal the differences and synergistic effects of various treatment methods and formulas on anti-aging. Based on this treatment method， the research integrated two millennia of kidney-tonifying medicinal experience to develop the innovative anti-aging traditional Chinese medicine， namely Bazhi Bushen capsules. It was validated that this capsule can delay holistic and systemic aging through multiple targets and mechanisms， thereby elucidating the scientific connotation of the essence-Qi-spirit theory of Qiluo doctrine in guiding anti-aging research from multiple dimensions and providing robust support for leveraging the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine to occupy the commanding heights of international anti-aging research.

Diabetic retinopathy（DR）， as one of the most common and serious microvascular complications of diabetes mellitus， seriously threatens human health， and belongs to "Xiaoke eye diseases" in traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）， which has been richly experienced by medical practitioners through the ages， but is mostly recorded in a piecemeal manner and has not been systematically researched. This disease is featured by long course and repeated attack， and is refractory， which belongs to the research category of "persistent illness entering collaterals". Systematic establishment of TCM collateral disease theory for guiding prevention and treatment of DR has important clinical value. On the basis of close correlation between tertiary collaterals at the terminal of collaterals and capillaries and microcirculation， the concept of "tertiary collaterals-microvascular" is proposed. It is pointed out that DR falls within the scope of "tertiary collaterals-microvascular" diseases， and presents four types of micro-pathological characteristics， including stasis， insufficiency， growth and bleeding of tertiary collaterals. It is concluded that "deficiency of both Qi and Yin" is the basic pathogenesis of DR， and "blood stasis and collateral obstruction" is the important pathogenesis and key factor. Thus， the treatment method of "dispersing blood stasis， dredging collateral， tonifying Qi and Yin， stopping hemorrhage and improving eyesight" is determined， and the formula of Tongluo Mingmu capsules is developed. The article tightly focuses on the pathological changes such as stasis， growth， insufficiency and bleeding of collaterals， addresses both symptoms and root causes， and plays a synergistic role of both dispersing stasis and stopping bleeding. In this way， it can realize the purpose of tonifying Qi and Yin to replenish the essence， dispersing stasis and dredging collaterals to meet the requirement， as well as stopping hemorrhage and improving eyesight to deal with changes. Fundamental researches demonstrate that Tongluo Mingmu capsules has synergy effects of protecting both retinal capillaries and retinal cells. Phase-Ⅲ clinical trial of new drug has proven definite clinical efficacy and good safety， which provides a new drug choice for enhancing clinical effect of DR， and further supports the scientific value of Luobing theory in preventing and treating DR and other clinically significant diseases.

Objective To develop a risk management system for complications associated with peripheral venous indwelling needles and to evaluate its application effect in order to reduce the risk of related complications.Methods We designed a comprehensive risk management system for peripheral intravenous indwelling needle complications,integrating specialized evidence-based guidelines with clinical practice insights,including 5 modules:intelligent assessment and decision support,intelligent inspection reminders,educational modules,collaborative case management procedures,and a knowledge base.Patients admitted to the neurology and internal classification metabolism departments of a tertiary hospital in Jilin Province were conveniently selected as the research subjects.Patients were assigned to a control group(from May to July 2022,before the implementation of the system)and an experimental group(from September to December 2022,after the implementation of the system).The incidence of complications,duration of indwelling needle,compliance rate of core indicators for nursing quality and number of nursing consultations were compared between the groups.Additionally,a self-administered questionnaire was used to assess clinical nurses'evaluations of the system.Results A total of 189 patients were included in the experimental group and 177 patients in the control group.The incidence of complications associated with peripheral intravenous indwelling needles was lower than that in the control group.The duration of indwelling peripheral intravenous needles was longer than that in the control group.The quality compliance rate of peripheral venous indwelling needle care in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group,and the number of consultation cases in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group.Comparisons between the 2 groups showed statistically significant differences for all indicators(P＜0.05).The nurses'recognition rates for the system's user-friendliness,professional guidance,and patient benefit were 77.78％,81.74％,and 82.13％,respectively.Conclusion The application of a peripheral vein indwelling needle complication risk management system can reduce the incidence of complications,prolong the duration of indwelling,and improve nursing quality.Nurses have a high recognition of this system.

ObjectiveTo develop a nomogram-based risk prediction model for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) incidence among the community-dwelling population aged 40 years old and above, so as to provide targeted references for the screening and prevention of COPD. MethodsBased on a natural population cohort in suburban Shanghai, a total of 3 381 randomly selected participants aged ≥40 years underwent pulmonary function tests between July and October 2021. Cox stepwise regression analysis was used to develop overall and gender-specific risk prediction models, along with the construction of corresponding risk nomograms. Model predictive performance was evaluated using the C-indice, area under the curve (AUC) values, and Brier score. Stability was assessed through 10-fold cross-validation and sensitivity analysis. ResultsA total of 3 019 participants were included, with a median follow-up duration of 4.6 years. The COPD incidence density was 17.22 per 1 000 person-years, significantly higher in males (32.04/1 000 person-years) than that in females (7.38/1 000 person-years) (P<0.001). The overall risk prediction model included the variables such as gender, age, education level, BMI, smoking, passive smoking, and respiratory comorbidities. The male-specific model incorporated the variables such as age, BMI, respiratory comorbidities, and smoking, while the female-specific model included age, marital status, respiratory comorbidities, and pulmonary tuberculosis history. The C-indices for the overall, male-specific, and female-specific models were 0.829, 0.749, and 0.807, respectively. The 5-year AUC values were 0.785, 0.658, and 0.811, with Brier scores of 0.103, 0.176, and 0.059, respectively. Both 10-fold cross-validated C-indices and sensitivity analysis (excluding participants with a follow-up duration of <6 months) yielded C-indices were above 0.740. ConclusionThis study developed concise and practical overall and gender-specific COPD risk prediction models and corresponding nomograms. The models demonstrated robust performance in predicting COPD incidence, providing a valuable reference for identifying high-risk populations and formulating targeted screening and personalized management strategies.

To explore the anti-depression effect of Suanzaoren Decoction(SZRD), the regulatory effects on endogenous metabolites in the liver of rats with depression induced by chronic unpredictable mild stress(CUMS) were analyzed by using LC-MS metabolomics. The rats were randomly divided into normal control group, model group, low-dose SZRD group, high-dose SZRD group, and positive drug group. The CUMS depression model was replicated by applying a variety of stimuli, such as fasting and water deprivation, ice water swimming, hot water swimming, day and night reversal, tail clamping, and restraint for rats. Modeling and treatment were conducted for 56 days. The behavioral indexes of rats in each group, including body weight, open field test, sucrose preference test, and tail suspension test, were observed. Plasma samples and liver tissue samples were collected, and the contents of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT), dopamine(DA), and norepinephrine(NE) in plasma were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Meanwhile, the regulatory effects of SZRD on the liver metabolic profile of CUMS model rats were analyzed by the LC-MS metabolomics method. The results show that SZRD can significantly improve the depression-like behavior of CUMS model rats and increase the neurotransmitter levels of 5-HT, DA, and NE in plasma. A total of 24 different metabolites in the rats' liver are identified using the LC-MS metabolomics method, and SZRD can reverse 13 of these metabolites. Metabolic pathway analysis indicates that nine metabolic pathways are found to be significantly associated with depression, and in the low-dose SZRD group, four pathways can be regulated, including pentose phosphate pathway, purine metabolism, inositol phosphate metabolism, and sphingolipid metabolism. In the high-dose SZRD group, two metabolic pathways can be regulated, including sphingolipid metabolism and glycerol glycerophospholipid metabolism. Sphingolipid metabolism is a metabolic pathway that can be regulated by SZRD at different doses, so it is speculated that it may be the primary pathway through which SZRD can alleviate metabolic disturbances in the liver of CUMS model rats.

Objective To explore the relationship between the intraoperative plasma transfusion volume,the changes of blood coagulation test values and the clinical prognosis of surgical patients,so as to provide a theoretical basis for guiding the rational use of blood during the operation.Methods The clinical data of 556 surgical patients who received plasma in-fusion from January 2017 to December 2020 in Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital were collected.Patients were divided into low plasma dose group(＜15 mL/kg)and high plasma dose group(≥15 mL/kg).The univariate regression analysis,logistic multivariate regression analysis and linear regression analysis were used to explore the relationship of plasma dose,the chan-ges of coagulation indicators and the clinical prognosis.Results A total of 556 surgical patients were included in the study and the median(interquartile range)of plasma transfusion volume for all patients during the operation was 10.5(8.5～14.0)mL/kg.In multivariate regression analysis,an increase of 1 mL/kg of intraoperative plasma dose resulted in an in-creased risk of red blood cell infusion within 24 hours after surgery[OR(95%CI)1.16(1.01,1.33),P＜0.05],an in-crease in the ICU stays[Mean(95%CI)0.19(0.03,0.35),P＜0.05]and an increase in the hospitalization days[Mean(95%CI)0.55(0.27,0.81),P＜0.05].The preoperative INR value increased the risk of red blood cell infusion within 24 hours after surgery[OR(95%CI)1.82(1.33,2.50),P＜0.05],and increased the hospital mortality of postoperative pa-tients[OR(95%CI)2.15(1.09,4.24),P＜0.05];the decrease in INR reduced the risk of red blood cell infusion in pa-tients 24 hours after surgery[OR(95%CI)0.47(0.27,0.84),P＜0.05]and reduced hospital mortality[OR(95%CI)0.23(0.13,0.50),P＜0.05].Conclusion In surgical patients undergoing intraoperative plasma infusion,abnormal preopera-tive INR value and high intraoperative plasma infusion are related to poor clinical prognosis,while INR decrease(preopera-tive-postoperative)was related to better clinical results.

[Objective]To assess the impact of intraoperative plasma infusion dose and coagulation test value INR on the clinical prognosis of patients undergoing cardiac surgery,providing a basis for guiding rational blood use during cardi-ac surgery.[Methods]The clinical data of 305 surgical patients who received fresh frozen plasma transfusion during cardiac surgery were collected in Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2014 to December 2022.The patients were divided into low-dose group(plasma infusion dose<15 mL/kg,n=214)and high-dose group(plasma infusion dose≥15 mL/kg,n=91)based on the intraoperative plasma dose.Univariate analysis,correlation analysis and logistic multivariate regression analysis were used to analyze the relationship between plasma infusion dose,changes in INR before and after plasma transfusion,and the clinical prognosis of patients undergoing cardiac surgery.[Results]The median plasma infusion dose for all patients was 11.11(8.17-19.05)mL/kg,while the median plasma infusion dose in the high-dose group and the low-dose group was 17.78(15.69-20.91)mL/kg and 9.52(7.77-11.43)mL/kg,respectively,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.001).The median INR decrease in the high-dose and low-dose groups was 0.98(0.60-1.26)and 0.50(0.35-0.76),respectively,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.001).Logistic multi-variate regression analysis revealed that abnormally elevated preoperative INR values increased the risk of postoperative red blood cell transfusion within 24 hours in cardiac surgery patients(P<0.001),with an OR 95%CI of 6.757(3.068,14.822).Additionally,it also increased the risk of postoperative in-hospital mortality(P<0.001),with an OR 95%CI of 5.441(2.193,13.499).INR decrease reduced the risk of postoperative red blood cell transfusion within 24 hours in cardi-ac surgery patients(P=0.001),with an OR 95%CI of 0.244(0.107,0.558).Correlation analysis showed positive correla-tion between plasma infusion dose and postoperative ICU days(rs=0.569,P<0.001)and hospital days(rs=0.302,P<0.001)in cardiac surgery patients.[Conclusion]Among patients undergoing cardiac surgery who receive intraoperative plasma transfusion,high plasma infusion dose and abnormally elevated preoperative INR values are associated with poorer clinical outcomes,while patients who show a greater degree of INR correction after plasma transfusion exhibit better clini-cal results.
