There are certain limitations in the current clinical evaluation methods and evaluation modes of new Chinese herbal medicines for syndromes, and there is a lack of a clinical evaluation system that meets the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Based on the characteristics of TCM "syndrome differentiation and treatment" and "correspondence of formulas and syndromes", the target design model, hypothesis and its scope of application are proposed on the basis of the combination of diseases and syndromes. On the basis of fully considering the dual factors of diseases and syndromes, we distinguished the "centre of the target", "middle ring" and "outer ring" through the differences of different signs and symptoms in people with same syndrome, in order to determine the degree of conformity of the syndrome. Then, the population with same syndrome could be analysed according to the "centre of the target", "middle ring" and "outer ring", so as to achieve the precise positioning of new Chinese herbal medicines for syndromes, and try to provide research ideas and methods for syndrome differentiation and treatment of TCM and precise intervention.

OBJECTIVE
To analyse current availability of pediatric drugs in China quantitatively and provide fundamental data support for optimizing the incentive policy.
METHODS
Based on national drug coding database issued by National Medical Products Administration, the marketed drugs were classified into children's only drug, adult-children's drug, children's inferred drug and non-children's drug by consulting the drug instructions through the approval number. Taking children's only drug and adult-children's drug as the key subjects, this paper carried out statistics and analysis on the marketing status of pediatric drugs in China from the perspectives of approval, variety, dosage form, specification, distribution of treatment fields, enterprise and so on.
RESULTS
Among the marketed drugs, there were 4 229 approvals for pediatric drugs and 44 112 approvals for adult-children's drugs, accounting for 2.99% and 31.19% respectively. children's only drug had 625 varieties, accounting for 18.83% of the total pediatric drug varieties. Analgesic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, anti-rheumatic and anti-gout drugs accounted for 55.71% of the total approvals for children's only drug(chemicals and biologics, excluding vaccines), and expectorant, antitussive and antiasthmatic agents accounted for 26.71% of total approvals for children's only drug (traditional Chinese medicine), but there were 16 and 19 treatment fields respectively were <1.00%; among the oral dosage forms, oral liquid accounted for 21.46%, while tablet, capsule, pill and other oral solid accounted for 37.51%. In the last 10 years of domestic drugs on the market, the number of approvals for regulation of water, electrolytes and acid-base balance drugs, analgesic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory, anti-rheumatic, anti-gout drugs and respiratory drugs accounted for 64.29% of children's only drug(chemicals and biologics, excluding vaccines), the number of approvals for internal medicine-expectorant, antitussive, antiasthmatic agent, exterior-relieving agent and heat-clearing agent accounted for 61.70% of children's only drug(traditional Chinese medicine).
CONCLUSION
There has been a certain basis for the marketing of pediatric drugs in China, but children's only drugs are few overall. The availability of pediatric drugs varies significantly among treatment fields. Some fields are in short supply, while others are in excess supply. Most fields are difficult to meet the drug demand of children, and the R&D and production of children's only drug is still concentrated on traditionally strong fields.

Objective To investigate the relationship between insomnia,gastrointestinal symptoms,and glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c)levels in individuals diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM),as well as the related influencing factors.Methods A total of 910 T2DM patients treated in our multicenter from January 2022 to December 2022 were enrolled in this study.General information(gender,age,smoking and drinking history,exercise,course of disease,treatment and complications),HbA1c,Athens Insomnia Scale(AIS)scores and Gastrointestinal Symptoms Rating Scale(GSRS)scores of patients were collected.The differences of sleep and gastrointestinal symptoms between groups were analyzed,and the correlation between the differences and HbA1c was analyzed.Furthermore,the risk factors for non-standard HbA1c were analyzed.Results The AIS score and GSRS score in the HbA1c control group were less than those in the non-standard group(P<0.01).Insomnia was reported by 37.0%of T2DM patients,and the HbA1c level in the insomnia group was significantly higher than that in the non-insomnia group(10.00%±2.38%vs.8.26%±1.73%,P<0.01).Gastrointestinal symptoms were present in 57.5%of T2DM patients,and the HbA1c levels in the group with gastrointestinal symptoms were significantly higher than those in the group without gastrointestinal symptoms(9.26%±2.23%vs.8.43%±1.98%,P<0.01).Furthermore,26.3%of T2DM patients experienced both insomnia and gastrointestinal symptoms.Remarkably,the HbA1c levels in the group with both insomnia and gastrointestinal symptoms were significantly higher than those in the group without either condition(10.18%±2.44%vs.8.45%±1.86%,P<0.01).Correlation analysis demonstrated a significant association between sleep quality,gastrointestinal function,and HbA1c levels(P<0.01).The logistic regression analysis result revealed that age,GSRS score,AIS score,and the presence of insomnia combined with gastrointestinal symptoms were independent risk factors for predicting HbA1c≥6.5%(P<0.01).Having both insomnia and gastrointestinal symptoms concurrently was the strongest risk factor for substandard HbA1c control,and the risk of blood sugar control may increase about 5 times when both appear together.Conclusion Insomnia and gastrointestinal symptoms are common comorbidities in T2DM patients,showing a cross-interfering relationship,and they appear together with poor blood sugar control,interact causally,and amplify each other.
