Compilation instruction for Expert Consensus on Clinical Application of Binghuang Fule Ointment elaborates on the formulation methods and evidence-based basis of the consensus. To address the problems of insufficient evidence on efficacy, vague indications, and a lack of uniform standard for Binghuang Fule Ointment in clinical application, 34 experts from 29 medical institutions across China participated in the compilation under the lead of the Institute of Basic Research in Clinical Medicine and Xiyuan Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, as well as China-Japan Friendship Hospital. The compilation strictly adhered to the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development (GB/T 1.1—2020), and the Guidance of Instructions for Compiling Expert Consensus on Clinical Practice of Chinese Patent Medicine. Through multidisciplinary collaboration, the compilation was completed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) evidence grading system. The detailed workflow included various key links. In clinical question construction, 15 items were screened by the nominal group method. In evidence retrieval, Chinese and English databases, along with gray literature, were covered to obtain 116 clinical and 33 pharmaceutical studies. In safety assessment, drug monitoring data and clinical research results were integrated, clarifying local adverse skin reactions and contraindications. Ultimately, 8 recommendations were formed by the GRADE grid method, while 16 consensus suggestions were reached via the majority vote rule. The results showed that the Binghuang Fule Ointment was applicable to eczema, psoriasis, neurodermatitis, tinea pedis, and other diseases. The Consensus also elucidated the syndrome differentiation points, usage and dosage for different diseases (such as adjustment of course and application frequency), as well as the indications of combination medication. Additionally, safety assessment suggested that the Ointment should be used with caution in individuals with skin ulceration or hypersensitivity. To ensure methodological rigor, the compilation process went through three rounds of internal and external expert reviews, while a comprehensive analysis was conducted by literature analysis, the Delphi method, and other methods. This compilation instruction provided methodological support for the clinical transformation of the Consensus through key links, including project initiation, international registration, informed consent, conflict-of-interest statements, evidence evaluation, and popularization. The Consensus will be continuously improved through a dynamic revision mechanism in the future.

SkinPro Ointment is an emulsion-based preparation derived from a traditional Tibetan medical empirical formula and developed using modern pharmaceutical technology. It is an exclusive patented product of Tibet Hairong Tangguo Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. and has been listed as a National Protected Traditional Chinese Medicine Variety, the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China, and classified as a Category B product in the National Basic Medical Insurance Catalog. The ointment possesses the functions of clearing heat and drying dampness, activating blood circulation and dispelling wind, relieving itching and reducing inflammation. Clinically, it is used for skin pruritus caused by dampness-heat accumulation or blood-heat with wind-dryness, as well as pruritic skin diseases such as neurodermatitis, eczema, tinea pedis, and psoriasis. To clarify the standards for its clinical application and promote rational drug use, a consensus working group comprising 34 national experts in dermatology, evidence-based medicine, and pharmacy was established. Through expert interviews, the nominal group technique, and questionnaire surveys, 15 clinical issues were identified. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) evidence grading system was employed to assess the quality of evidence, leading to the formulation of the Expert Consensus on the Clinical Application of SkinPro Ointment. This consensus specifies that the intended users are physicians and pharmacists in medical institutions at all levels. It standardizes the clinical application of the ointment, including syndrome characteristics, dosage and course of treatment, combination therapy, precautions, and contraindications. Recommendations and consensus suggestions were formed addressing the 15 clinical issues, covering the following key areas: ①Indications and TCM syndromes: In TCM, the ointment mainly treats conditions such as "damp sores" (Shichuang), "white scaling" (Baibi), "collar sores" (Shelingchuang), and "damp foot Qi" (Jiaoshiqi), corresponding to eczema, psoriasis, neurodermatitis, and tinea pedis in Western medicine. The relevant TCM syndromes are identified as dampness-heat accumulation or blood-heat with wind-dryness. ②Usage and dosage: For external use, apply to the affected area 3 times daily. The dosage should follow the fingertip unit (FTU) principle. A treatment course of 1-2 weeks is recommended for mild to moderate cases; for serious cases, the course should be followed as prescribed by a physician. ③Combined therapy: The ointment can be used as monotherapy for mild cases. For moderate to severe cases, combination therapy is recommended, with reference to relevant clinical guidelines. ④Safety: Common adverse reactions include skin rashes, pruritus, and erythema. The ointment is contraindicated in patients with broken skin or obvious exudation at the affected area, as well as in patients with known hypersensitivity to any of its components. Contact with sensitive areas such as the eyes and oral mucosa should be avoided. Modern research shows that the ointment also has potential efficacy in other dermatological conditions, such as adult atopic dermatitis, tinea cruris, exfoliative keratolysis, acne vulgaris, and Malassezia folliculitis. This consensus provides a scientific basis for promoting the rational clinical use of SkinPro Ointment, improving its therapeutic efficacy, and reducing medication risks. Future updates will be dynamically revised according to emerging clinical issues and new evidence.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of state-target formula Angelica and Safflower spot removal essence in the treatment of melasma. MethodsA randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled parallel-group trial was conducted,selecting patients with Qi stagnation and blood stasis type of melasma who visited the dermatology outpatient department of Beijing Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from September 2022 to February 2023. In accordance with the double-blind principle,a random number table was generated to randomly divide the patients into an experimental group (50 cases) and a control group (50 cases). The experimental group applied the Angelica and Safflower spot removal essence topically,while the control group applied a placebo topically,with continuous treatment for 8 weeks and a follow-up of 1 month. Melasma Area and Severity Index (MASI),Physician Global Assessment (PGA),patient self-assessment scoring,VISIA detection and scoring were performed before medication and on the first day after stopping medication,and all adverse events were recorded. ResultsIn a study involving 100 patients,87 cases were included in the analysis. The experimental group consisted of 45 cases,with 5 dropouts,and the control group had 42 cases,with 8 dropouts. The baseline data of the patients in both groups were consistent,with no statistically significant differences. After treatment,the total effective rate of the experimental group was 75.56% (34/45),significantly higher than the control group's 2.38% (1/42),and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=48.38,P<0.01). Compared with before treatment,after treatment,the MASI score,VISIA image spot,brown spot,and red area score of the experimental group patients were significantly reduced (P<0.05,P<0.01),while there was no statistically significant difference in the control group patients. Compared with the control group after treatment,the experimental group showed more significant improvement (P<0.05,P<0.01). VISIA image analysis showed that after 8 weeks of treatment,the experimental group showed significant improvement in surface spots,deep spots,and red areas,while the control group remained unchanged or showed an increasing trend. 42.22% (19/45) of the experimental group had a PGA score of 3 or below,while 88.89% (40/45) had a PGA score of 4 or below. 80.95% (34/42) of the control group had a PGA score of 5 or above,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ2=38.26,P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in the recurrence rate and adverse reaction rate within one month between the experimental group and the control group. ConclusionThe state-target formula Angelica and Safflower spot removal essence is clinically effective and safe in the treatment of melasma.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of eculizumab in treating hematopoietic stem cell transplantation-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA) .Methods:This retrospective study included 11 patients who developed TA-TMA after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and subsequently received eculizumab treatment at Peking University People′s Hospital between June 2018 and May 2024. The incidence of TA-TMA, treatment details, and clinical outcomes were analyzed.Results:Among the 11 included patients [4 males, 7 females; median age: 29 years (range: 9-56) ], underlying diseases were severe aplastic anemia (SAA) in 5 patients, acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in 3 patients, and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in 3 patients. The median time to TA-TMA diagnosis was 48 days post-transplantation (range: 4-213 days), and all patients met the diagnostic criteria for high-risk TA-TMA. The median interval from TA-TMA diagnosis to the initiation of eculizumab treatment was 12 days (range: 1-56 days). Patients received a median of 3 doses of eculizumab (range: 1-14). Ten of the 11 patients were assessed as having no response (NR) to eculizumab at the end of treatment or at death. One patient achieved a partial response (PR) but subsequently died after TA-TMA relapsed due to infection. At the last follow-up, all patients were either lost to follow-up or had died. The median follow-up duration was 88 days (range: 33-326 days), and the median time from TA-TMA diagnosis to the last follow-up was 31 days (range: 21-113 days) .Conclusion:Eculizumab demonstrated poor efficacy in this TA-TMA cohort. This might be attributable to the critical and complex condition of the patients, delayed initiation of eculizumab treatment, and insufficient dosage.

Objective:To construct four recombinant hemagglutinin (HA) antigens from seasonal influenza viruses and evaluate their immunogenicity in mouse models.Methods:HA coding sequences from four seasonal influenza virus strains Wisconsin (H1N1), Darwin (H3N2), Austria (B/Victoria lineage, BV) and Phuket (B/Yamagata lineage, BY) were optimized and synthesized, and then used to construct four recombinant plasmids. Recombinant baculoviruses were obtained through transformation and transfection. The expression of recombinant HA antigens was identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. The recombinant HA antigens were purified by nickel column affinity chromatography and intramuscularly administered to BALB/c mice after formulation with Al(OH) 3 or AddaVax adjuvant. Humoral immune responses were assessed by indirect ELISA and hemagglutination inhibition test, while cellular immune responses were evaluated by ELISPOT. Microneutralization test was used to detect the titers of serum antibodies in mice. Statistical analysis was performed using t test or non-parametric rank sum test. Results:PCR amplification and agarose gel electrophoresis confirmed the correct construction of the recombinant bacmids. Western blot showed verified the successful expression of the four recombinant antigens (H1-HA, H3N2-HA, BV-HA, and BY-HA). SDS-PAGE results showed that the purity of all four recombinant HA antigens exceeded 95%. After three-dose immunization, the total IgG levels in mice immunized with the recombinant H1N1-HA, H3N2-HA, or BV-HA formulated with AddaVax adjuvant were higher than those in the corresponding groups immunized with the same recombinant antigen alone (all P<0.05). The secretion levels of IFN-γ, IL-2, and IL-4 in the group receiving the mixture of all four recombinant HA antigens formulated with AddaVax adjuvant were higher than those in the group immunized with a commercial quadrivalent split influenza vaccine (all P<0.01). Results of the microneutralization test showed that the antibody titer in the quadrivalent split influenza vaccine group was 1∶225, whereas the titer in the group immunized with the mixture of four recombinant HA antigens formulated with AddaVax adjuvant could reach up to 1∶1 200. Conclusions:In this study, four recombinant seasonal influenza virus HA antigens are successfully expressed and demonstrated good immunogenicity in mice when formulated AddaVax adjuvant.
