Sangjuyin， as a pungent and cooling agent with precise therapeutic effect， is a classic pungent formula for cooling relief of the epidermis， which is highly respected by medical practitioners. This formula is from the Wenbing Tiaobian written by WU Jutong in the Qing dynasty， on the basis of which subsequent medical practitioners have made additions and subtractions to apply it. The authors used the bibliometric method to systematically organize the medical books from the Qing dynasty and the Republic of China and modern literature to analyze the composition， concoction， decoction， efficacy， and previous and modern application of Sangjuyin. After examination， the drug base of this formula is basically clear. Armeniacae Semen Amarum is the dried mature seeds of Armeniaca vulgaris， family Rosaceae. Forsythiae Fructus is the dried fruit of Forsythia suspensa， family Mulleinaceae. Menthae Haplocalycis Herba is the dried above-ground part of Mentha haplocalyx， family Labiatae. Mori Folium is the dried leaves of Morus alba， family Moraceae. Chrysanthemi Flos is the dried head of Chrysanthemum morifolium， family Asteraceae. Platycodonis Radix is the dried root of Eryngium grandiflorum， family Eryngium. Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma is the dried root and rhizome of Glycyrrhiza uralensis of the Leguminosae family， and Phragmitis Rhizoma is the fresh or dried rhizome of Phragmites communis of the Gramineae family. It is recommended that the eight drugs be used in raw form as medicine. The dosage and method of decoction were converted into a modern single dosage of 7.46 g Armeniacae Semen Amarum， 5.60 g Forsythiae Fructus， 2.98 g Menthae Haplocalycis Herba， 9.33 g Mori Folium， 3.73 g Chrysanthemi Flos， 7.46 g Platycodonis Radix， 2.98 g Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， and 11.19 g Phragmitis Rhizoma， with 400 mL water added， and the solution was boiled to obtain 200 mL， taken twice a day. Sangjuyin has the efficacy of dispersing wind and clearing heat， promoting lung and relieving cough， and it is used for treating the initial onset of wind-warmth and the evidence of evil spirits in the lungs and collaterals. Modern research has shown that Sangjuyin is often used in the treatment of cough， pneumonia， rhinitis， and other respiratory diseases， and the results of this study provide a reference for the later development of Sangjuyin.

Objective The aim of this study is to examine the Chinese version of Visual Prostate Symptom Score(CVPSS)and the International Prostate Symptom Score(IPSS)in the assessment of lower urinary tract symptoms in BPH pa-tients.Methods By using convenient sampling,inpatients in the urology department of a tertiary grade A hospital in Shanghai were selected as the survey subjects from March 2023 to March 2024.The lower urinary tract symptoms of the patients were eval-uated using the self-designed general information questionnaire.And the CVPSS and IPSS with their urine flow rate were meas-ured.A comparative analysis was conducted from aspects such as internal consistency,correlation of item scores,completion time of the scale,and assistance rate.Results A total of 246 patients with BPH were recruited.The total score and life quality score were 13.93±3.55 and 4.23±1.02 by CVPSS.And the total score and life quality by IPSS was 18.33±7.55 and 4.36±1.02,respectively.The Cronbach's α coefficient were 0.761 and 0.787,respectively.The time taken on CVPSS was less than that on IPSS(P＜0.01).And the rate of needing assistance was 23.58％for CVPSS,which was significantly lower than that(65.24％)for IPSS.Conclusion CVPSS is significantly correlated with the corresponding items and total scores of IPSS,as well as the quality of life.Moreover,it takes less time and can be used as a simple and effective self-assessment tool for lower urinary tract symptoms in elderly BPH patients with lower education levels.It reduces the burden of medical staffs as well.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical diagnosis and laparoscopic surgical management of diaphragmatic rupture.Methods:Clinical data of 19 patients diagnosed with diaphragmatic hernia secondary to diaphragmatic rupture, admitted to the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from Jan 2022 to Sep 2024 was retrospectively analyzed.Results:There were 7 males and 12 females. Traumatic etiology was confirmed in 9 cases, all developed after closed injuries, including one vehicular accident, seven blunt traumas, and one fall from height. Iatrogenic factors accounted for the remaining 10 cases. Left-sided diaphragmatic hernias were observed in 13 patients, while right-sided hernias occurred in 6 patients. Hiatal hernias were complicated in 5 patients. All patients underwent elective laparoscopic tension-free repair using composite patch for defect closure. Postoperatively, one patient was readmitted into ICU due to reexpansion pulmonary edema but was subsequently discharged following recovery. The median postoperative hospital stay was 10 days.Conclusions:The incidence of diaphragmatic rupture is relatively uncommon, primarily occurring as a result of traumatic or iatrogenic injuries. Early diagnosis coupled with prompt laparoscopic surgical intervention has proven to be effective in managing this condition.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy and pharmacotherapy alone in the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma(CSDH).Methods:Firstly, retrospective case series study was conducted. Thirty cases of CSDH that had received body posture combined with pharmacotherapy at Department of Neurosurgery, Huashan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from December 2016 to October 2020 were studied retrospectively. Twenty-seven patients were male, and 3 patients were female. The age of patients ( M(IQR)) was 66(16) years (range:28 to 84). Nineteen patients had unilateral hematoma, and 11 patients had bilateral hematoma. All patients received pharmacotherapy and body posture therapy that was to raise their lower limbs 20 to 30 cm with leg lift pad and get abdominal compressed with customized abdominal belt in supine position. Patients were required to maintain the body posture as much as possible, with the maximum to 16 to 18 hours per day. Patients with unilateral hematoma should tilt the head to the affected side and avoid tilting it to the opposite side. For patients with bilateral hematoma, there was no need for head lateralization. Patient were treated with oral dexamethasone and atorvastatin simultaneously. The preliminary efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy was determined by hematoma improvement rate which was analyzed by Clopper-Pearson method. Then, the multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial had carried out in 9 medical centers from August 2020 to November 2021. The stratified block randomization method was adopted. Patients were randomized in a ratio of 1∶1 to either receive pharmacotherapy alone(the control group) or body posture combined with pharmacotherapy(the experiment group) for 3 months and followed up for 6 months. Effective treatment was defined as complete absorption of hematoma, or the hematoma volume decreased by more than 10 ml and Markwalder grading scale score had improved by more than 1 point compared to the baseline. The efficacy rate and surgery conversion rate at 3 months and recurrence at 6 months were observed. Comparison between groups was performed with paired sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test, corrected χ2 test, or Fisher exact probability method. Logistic regression was used to compare the effective rate and operation rate between the two groups. Results:In the respective study, 30 patients completed follow-up 13 to 353 days after treatment. At the last follow-up, the incidence of almost complete absorption or significantly absorption of hematoma (hematoma volume was significantly reduced accompanied by symptom improvement) was 93.3%. The 95% CI for the incidence that analyzed by the Clopper-Pearson method was 77.9% to 99.2%. One hundred and six patients were enrolled in the multicenter study. Fifty-five patients underwent body posture combined with pharmacotherapy. The age was 74(17) years (range:26 to 92). Thirty-nine patients were males and 16 were females. Fifty-one patients underwent pharmacotherapy alone. The age was 69(12) years (range:48 to 84). Thirty-seven patients were males and 14 were females. The length of body posture recorded in diary card was (15.7±2.3) hours(range:7.6 to 19.3 hours). The efficacy rate in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group and pharmacotherapy alone group were 83.6% (46/55) and 56.9% (29/51), respectively at 3 months. The result of the logistic regression analysis showed that the efficacy of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group was better than that of pharmacotherapy alone group ( OR=3.88,95% CI:1.57 to 9.58, P=0.003). Surgery rate in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group and pharmacotherapy alone group were 5.5% (3/55) and 21.6% (11/51) respectively. The result of Logistic regression showed that the pharmacotherapy alone group was more likely to be converted to surgery ( OR=0.21,95% CI:0.05 to 0.80, P=0.023). At the 6 months, no recurrence of cases was found in the body posture combined with pharmacotherapy group. However, the recurrence rate of pharmacotherapy alone group was 6.3% (3/48), there was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The effect of body posture combined with pharmacotherapy for chronic subdural hematoma is better than that of pharmacotherapy alone.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness of splenic circulation control technology in minimally invasive radical resection surgery for pancreatic neck/body cancer.Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. Retrospective analysis of clinical data of 12 patients who underwent laparoscopic or robotic radical resection for pancreatic neck/body cancer at the Department of Gastrointestinal and Pancreatic Surgery,Zhejiang Provincial People′s Hospital between January 2024 and January 2025. There were 7 males and 5 females,with mean age of 68 years (range: 52 to 79 years). Clinical data including preoperative,intra-operative and postoperative outcomes were analyzed. Postoperative follow-up was conducted via outpatient visits and telephone interviews,with the follow-up ending on April 1,2025.Results:All 12 patients underwent minimally invasive radical resection of pancreatic neck/body cancer using splenic circulation control technology,consisted of 3 laparoscopic and 9 robotic procedures. The mean operative time was 185 minutes (range: 140 to 315 minutes),and the average blood loss was 100 ml (range: 30 to 300 ml). Two cases involved combined organ resection.There was no conversion to open surgery. Postoperative complications were observed in 2 patients. One patient developed grade B pancreatic leakage,managed by ultrasound-guided puncture.The patient was discharged with drainage tube. The other patient experienced chylous leakage,recovered with conservative treatment. No delayed gastric emptying,hemorrhage or reoperations were observed. The median postoperative hospital stay was 13 days (range: 8 to 20 days).Conclusion:The splenic circulation control technique is simple and safe,and shows certain application prospects in minimally invasive radical resection of pancreatic neck and body cancer.

Objective To explore the application effect of the"ASK-T"aspiration prevention management model in reducing the risk of aspiration in elderly patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)complicated by dysphagia.Methods 196 of 409 COPD patients with aspiration risk admitted to the Respiratory Disease Department of Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine,Higher Education Mega Center Hospital from July 2021 to June 2024 were selected as the study object,and 102 COPD patients with aspiration risk admitted from July 2021 to December 2022 were set as the pre-improvement group.The patients in this group received the original nursing process and management mode of the department during hospitalization.94 COPD patients with aspiration risk admitted from January 2023 to June 2024 were set as the improved group,and the patients in this group were introduced into the department and implemented an innovative improvement project:"ASK-T"anti-aspiration management mode and then received nursing management.Patients in both groups were observed and followed up for 4 weeks.The risk grade of aspiration,SSA score,DHI score,aspiration pneumonia and aspiration pneumonia,nutritional status and satisfaction after intervention were compared between the two groups.Result in the improved group was significantly lower than that in the pre-improvement group(P<0.05),and the SSA score,DHI score and total DHI score of patients in the 2 groups were significantly lower than that before intervention(P<0.05).The SSA score,DHI score and DHI total score in the improved group were lower than those in the pre-improved group(P<0.05).The results of 4-week follow-up showed that the scores of NRS-2002 for nutritional risk screening in 2 groups were lower than before intervention(P<0.05),and the scores of NRS-2002 for nutritional risk screening in the improved group were significantly lower than those in the pre-improvement group(P<0.05).The comparison showed that the incidence of aspiration and aspiration pneumonia in the improved group was lower than that in the pre-improved group(P<0.05),and the satisfaction score of patients with the relevant preventive measures was higher than that in the pre-improved group(P<0.05).Conclusion The"ASK-T"aspiration preven-tion management model,when applied in the nursing of elderly patients with COPD complicated by dysphagia,can significantly reduce the risk of aspiration and the incidence of aspiration pneumonia,effectively improve patients' swallowing function and quality of life,and enhance their nutritional status.Furthermore,this model significantly improves patient satisfaction with intervention measures,providing a scientific and effective management strategy for clinical nursing of elderly patients with COPD complicated by dysphagia.It is worthy of promotion and application in clinical practice.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of deaths caused by influenza-associated encephalopathy (IAE) in children.Methods:A case control study was conducted.The clinical data (including baseline fata, organ function indices, inflammatory factors, imaging data, treatment, and outcomes) of IAE children hospitalized in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of Shanghai Children′s Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University from January 2020 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The children were divided into a survival group and a death group.The Logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were used to analyze the risk factors of death in IAE children.Results:A total of 46 cases were included, with an onset age of 74.8(46.0, 92.5) months.The main cause of IAE was influenza A virus infection, which was detected in 45 cases(97.8%), and 32 cases (69.6%) of them had H3N2.One child (2.2%) was infected by influenza B virus.Eight children died, showing a mortality of 17.4%.There was significant difference in Glasgow Coma Scale between the survival and death groups when they were admitted into the PICU [10 (9, 11) points vs.3 (3, 5) points] ( Z=-4.510, P<0.05).All patients in the death group had multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, respiratory failure and circulatory system failure.Serum procalcitonin (PCT)[15.7 (3.3, 37.4) μg/L], interleukin-6 (IL-6)[1 039.1 (319.3, 2 884.3) ng/L], and cerebrospinal fluid protein(CSFP)[13 050.0 (5 865.0, 21 100.0) mg/L] in the death group compared with those in the survival group [0.2 (0.1, 0.8) μg/L, 15.5 (7.9, 44.8) ng/L, 227.0 (190.0, 332.0) mg/L]were highly increased ( Z=-3.364, -4.088, -3.757, all P<0.001).Logistic regression analysis showed that PCT ( OR=0.660, P<0.05), IL-6 ( OR=1.014, P<0.05) and CSFP ( OR=1.001, P<0.05) were risk factors of death in IAE.The areas under the ROC curve for these three factors were 0.88 (95% CI: 0.77-0.97), 0.96 (95% CI: 0.86-1.00) and 0.93 (95% CI: 0.76-1.00), respectively.When a cutoff value of 2.50 μg/L, 269.67 ng/L and 5 240.00 mg/L was taken, PCT achieved a sensitivity of 0.875 and a specificity of 0.816, IL-6 achieved a sensitivity of 0.875 and specificity of 0.974, and CSFP achieved a sensitivity of 0.875 and specificity of 0.974, respectively. Conclusions:High levels of serum PCT, IL-6 and CSFP at PICU admission are risk factors of poor prognosis in children with IAE.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and risk factors for pediatric severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (SMPP) complicated with pulmonary embolism. Methods:SMPP patients admitted to Department of Pediatrics, Jiaxing First Hospital and Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Shanghai Children′s Hospital from December 2019 to December 2023 were included in this retrospective case-control study.According to whether they were complicated with pulmonary embolism, SMPP patients were divided into a pulmonary embolism group and a non-pulmonary embolism group.Clinical characteristics of the two groups, including general data, laboratory examination and imaging data were compared and analyzed.The t-test and Mann-Whitney rank-sum test were used to compare the measurement data, and the χ2 test was used to compare the count data.The risk factors of SMPP patients developing pulmonary embolism were analyzed by the univariate method. Results:There were 10 out of 62 SMPP children developing pulmonary embolism, showing an incidence of 16.13%.In the pulmonary embolism group, there were 5 boys and 5 girls, with a median age of 7.50 (5.75, 9.25) years.There were 52 children in the non-pulmonary embolism group, including 29 boys and 23 girls, with a median age of 6.50(5.00, 8.00)years.The hospitalization time, body temperature, total white blood cell count, neutrophil count, C-reactive protein levels, lactate dehydrogenase levels, prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time, D-dimer (D-D) levels, fibrinogen degradation product levels, pleural effusion and atelectasis rates in the pulmonary embolism group were significantly higher than those in the non-pulmonary embolism group (all P<0.05). Fibrinogen levels in the pulmonary embolism group were significantly lower than those in the non-pulmonary embolism group ( P<0.05). Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the D-D level was a risk factor for SMPP patient developing pulmonary embolism.The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the D-D level had the largest area under the curve for predicting pulmonary embolism of 0.990(95% CI: 0.972-1.000, P<0.001), with a sensitivity of 100%, a specificity of 92%, and a cut-off value of 4.63 mg/L. Conclusions:SMPP children complicated with pulmonary embolism are prone to high inflammation and impaired coagulation function.The increase of D-D levels is a risk factor for the development of pulmonary embolism in SMPP.

Vasopressin is a non-catecholamine agent that induces vasoconstriction via V1 receptors. It is currently regarded as a second-line vasopressor in the treatment of septic shock. According to the Surviving Sepsis Campaign Guidelines for the Management of Sepsis and Septic Shock in Adults,vasopressin is recommended when norepinephrine doses reach 0.25–0.50 μg/（kg·min）and normal blood pressure cannot be maintained. However,hemodynamic alterations in pediatric septic shock differ significantly from those observed in adults,and there is currently insufficient evidence to support the use of vasopressin in pediatric septic shock. This review,in conjunction with recent clinical research data,explored the optimal timing of initiation,methods of administration,and clinical evaluation criteria for vasopressin in septic shock,aiming to provide valuable references for the optimization of septic shock management.
