Digital and intelligent technologies serve as the core engine driving the inheritance of the essence and the innovation while upholding the fundamentals of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）. Currently， the digital and intelligent transformation of TCM has undergone four developmental stages， exhibiting inherent characteristics such as long-term inevitability， objective standardization， and ecological evolution. By introducing quantitative metrics， digital and intelligent technologies have achieved breakthroughs in TCM knowledge inheritance and innovation， clinical diagnosis and treatment， and herbal medicine supply. The practical applicability of methodological innovations has been empirically validated， though significant disparities exist in technological adaptability and application depth across different fields. Overall， the digital and intelligent transformation of TCM remains in its nascent stage， grappling with multiple structural challenges：weak data foundations， inadequate technological adaptability， incomplete institutional frameworks， shortages of multidisciplinary talent， lagging policies and regulations， and urban-rural digital divide. In order to foster sustainable development and modernization of TCM， this paper establishes a six-dimensional collaborative governance framework of encompassing data， technology， organization， institutions， environment and ethics， which is rooted in data governance and digital governance theories. Future efforts should center on standardization， integration， and ecosystem development to build a data and technology foundation. Focus should be placed on deepening innovation and application of key TCM-specific technologies， while simultaneously strengthening interdisciplinary talent cultivation， improving institutional mechanisms and policy frameworks， and increasing support for rural areas. By adopting a people-centered and technology-empowered approach， we can overcome developmental constraints and unleash the powerful driving force of digital and intelligent technologies for the inheritance of TCM.

Hepatic fibrosis refers to excessive accumulation and abnormal proliferation of fibrous connective tissue in the liver triggered by multiple pathogenic factors， and it may progress to liver cirrhosis， portal hypertension， and liver cancer. The pathological mechanisms of hepatic fibrosis involve hepatocyte injury， inflammatory cell infiltration with the release of inflammatory mediators， hepatic stellate cell activation， and extracellular matrix deposition. Recent studies have focused on mitochondrial dysfunction in disease progression， including the molecular pathways for hepatic fibrosis driven by metabolic disorders， energy deficiency， oxidative stress， mitochondrial dynamic imbalance， and autophagic dysfunction， all of which can induce liver injury. This article reviews the latest advances in hepatic fibrosis， in order to provide new therapeutic strategies for clinical management.

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 To study the pharmacokinetic characteristics of antidepressant active components from Jiaotai pills in healthy subjects. METHODS Eight healthy subjects （3 males and 5 females） were recruited and given a single oral dose of 8.55 g of Jiaotai pills. Venous blood samples were collected before administration （0 h） and at intervals from 0.25 to 36.0 hours post- administration. After treating the plasma samples with protein precipitation， the blood concentrations of the antidepressant active ingredients （coptisine， berberine， magnoflorine， and palmatine） in Jiaotai pills were determined using liquid chromatography- tandem mass spectrometry （LC-MS/MS） method. DAS 2.0 software was employed to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters of healthy subjects [half-life （t1/2）， peak concentration （cmax）， time to peak concentration （tmax）， area under the concentration-time curve （AUC）， and mean residence time （MRT）] using a non-compartmental model. RESULTS After healthy subjects took Jiaotai pills， the drug-time curve of the four antidepressant active ingredients conforms to a two-compartment model and tmax values were similar， with all reaching peak blood concentrations within 2.00 to 4.00 hours post-administration. However， the t1/2 and MRT of coptisine and berberine were significantly longer than that of magnoflorine and palmatine. There were also significant differences in the AUC and cmax among the four antidepressant active ingredients， with magnoflorine exhibiting markedly higher AUC0-t and cmax compared to the other three components. CONCLUSIONS In this study，LC-MS/MS is used to analyze the pharmacokinetic characteristics of the antidepressant active ingredients from Jiaotai pills in healthy subjects， can provide valuable references for the clinical application of Jiaotai pills.

BackgroundAnxiety disorder is a common mental disorder， with its prevalence showing a continuous upward trend， significantly affecting the quality of life and social function of patients. Due to the lack of objective and reliable biomarkers in clinical practice， the early identification and treatment of anxiety disorder have been somewhat limited. Plasma proteins have the potential to serve as biomarkers for mental diseases， however， the causal relationship between them and anxiety disorder remains unclear. ObjectiveTo identify the plasma proteins that have a causal relationship with anxiety disorders， and to elucidate the associated biological pathways， in order to provide references for the search for biomarkers of anxiety disorders and the exploration of potential therapeutic targets. MethodsBased on the protein quantitative trait locus （pQTL） data of 4 907 plasma proteins covering 35 559 Icelandic individuals from the deCODE database， and the genome-wide association studies （GWAS） data of 50 486 patients with anxiety disorders and 330 460 healthy controls， the inverse-variance weighted （IVW） method was used as the main analysis method， supplemented by MR-Egger method， weighted median method， simple model method， and weighted model method for bidirectional Mendelian randomization analysis. Enrichment analysis of gene ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathways was conducted for the related proteins. Sensitivity analysis was performed using Cochran's Q test， MR-Egger intercept test， MR-PRESSO test， and leave-one-out analysis to evaluate the robustness of the results. ResultsA total of 10 plasma proteins were identified as significantly associated with anxiety disorders. Among these， SPATA9 （OR=0.856， 95% CI： 0.784–0.934， P<0.01） and PDE5A （OR=0.911， 95% CI： 0.864–0.961， P<0.01） were identified as protective factors， while CRYGD （OR=1.209， 95% CI： 1.095–1.334， P<0.01）， BTN3A3 （OR=1.045， 95% CI： 1.018–1.073， P<0.01）， SERPINB13 （OR=1.102， 95% CI： 1.040–1.168， P<0.01）， ERBB4 （OR=1.283， 95% CI： 1.109–1.484， P<0.01）， LSAMP （OR=1.096， 95% CI： 1.037–1.158， P<0.01）， ICOSLG （OR=1.283， 95% CI： 1.104–1.490， P<0.01）， DNAJB11 （OR=1.172， 95% CI： 1.076–1.277， P<0.01）， and TREML1 （OR=1.115， 95% CI： 1.054–1.179， P<0.01） were identified as risk factors. The sensitivity analysis showed that the results were robust， with no heterogeneity （Cochran's Q test P>0.05） or pleiotropy （MR-Egger intercept test P>0.05）. Enrichment analysis indicated that these plasma proteins were enriched in biological processes such as T-cell signal transduction， lymphocyte proliferation， cell membrane structure and synaptic function， as well as the intestinal immune network that produces IgA and the ErbB signaling pathway. ConclusionThis study identified 10 plasma proteins associated with anxiety disorders. The functions of these plasma proteins involve multiple biological processes such as neural development and immune regulation.

Objective: To explore the correlation between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and digital self harm behavior among college students, so as to provide scientific evidence for preventing and intervening digital self harm behavior. Methods: A total of 5 917 college students from five provinces (Anhui, Guangdong, Hebei, Jilin, and Sichuan) were selected by using a method combining stratified cluster random sampling with convenient sampling to complete an electronic questionnaire survey, from May to June 2024. The survey was conducted to assesse digital self harm behavior and ten dimensions of ACEs, including peer bullying, emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional neglect, physical neglect, adverse family events, adverse school or social events, adverse life experiences, and personal adverse problems. A multivariable Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between ACEs and digital selfharm among college students. Results: The reporting rate of digital self harm behavior among college students was 11.5%. There were statistically significant differences in the reporting rates of digital self harm behaviors among college students with different household registration location and the numbers of close friends ( χ 2=3.91, 8.09 , both P <0.05). Univariate analyses showed that the prevalence of digital self harm behavior was significantly higher among students who reported any type of ACEs compared with those without such experiences ( χ 2=7.99-27.63, all P <0.01). After controlling for demographic variables, each type of ACE was separately included in multivariable Logistic regression models as an independent variable, and all types of ACEs were significantly associated with digital self harm behavior among college students ( OR =1.27-1.91, all P <0.01). Notably, the OR values for sexual abuse and personal adverse problems were relatively high, being 1.91 and 1.83 respectively. Moreover, the risk of reporting digital self harm increased with the number of types of ACEs ( OR= 1.17 , P <0.01). Conclusions ACEs are related factors for digital self harm behavior among college students. Early psychological intervention should be strengthened, particularly for college students who have experienced sexual abuse and personal adverse problems during childhood.

ObjectiveTo investigate the detection status of scoliosis and its influencing factors among primary and secondary school students in Jiangqiao Town in Jiading District of Shanghai, thereby providing evidence for the prevention and management of scoliosis in children and adolescents. MethodsA stratified cluster random sampling was conducted in March 2025. Three primary schools and two secondary schools in Jiangqiao Town were randomly selected; within each school, 3‒4 entire classes were randomly chosen. Screening was performed in accordance with the criteria specified in GB/T 16133‒2014 Screening for Abnormal Spinal Curvature in Children and Adolescents, and a self-designed structured questionnaire was administered to conduct face-to-face surveys (Cronbach’s α=0.730). ResultsA total of 772 valid questionnaires were collected on-site, representing a 100% response rate. The sample consisted of 413 males (53.50%) and 359 females (46.50%), including 385 primary school students (49.87%) and 387 secondary school students (50.13%). The detection rate of scoliosis in primary and secondary school students was 12.05%. The detection rates were 8.72% for males and 15.88% for females, with the female rate being significantly higher than the male rate (χ²=9.29, P=0.002). For primary and secondary school students, the detection rates were 6.75% and 17.31%, respectively, with the secondary school student rate being significantly higher (χ²=20.31, P<0.001). The results of univariate analysis revealed that students with sufficient sleep and standard sitting postures during reading/writing had a significantly lower scoliosis detection rate compared to those with insufficient sleep and non-standard sitting postures (χ²=5.90, P=0.015 and χ²=5.09, P=0.024). Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that the detection rate of scoliosis was significantly higher in females than in males (OR=1.846， 95%CI: 1.156‒2.984), and significantly higher in secondary school students than in primary school students (OR=2.722， 95%CI: 1.656‒4.472). ConclusionThe scoliosis detection rate among primary and secondary school students in Jiangqiao Town in Jiading District is relatively high. Females and secondary school students are key populations requiring targeted prevention and control efforts. It is imperative to strengthen health education on scoliosis, promote early screening and diagnosis, and implement timely targeted interventions.

Objective:To investigate the current prevalence and control status of coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis in key areas of the disease in Zhenxiong County of Yunnan Province, thereby providing scientific basis for formulating subsequent prevention strategies and measures.Methods:From October to November 2023, a simple random sampling method was used to conduct a survey in three key townships (towns) in Zhenxiong County, Chishuiyuan Town, Yanyuan Town, and Linkou Yi and Miao Ethnic Township. Three administrative villages were selected from each township (town) as survey sites, and dental fluorosis examination on children aged 8 - 12 years who were born and lived in the local area was conducted. Thirty households were selected from each survey site, the use of household stoves and the formation of related healthy living behaviors were investigated. At the same time, a survey was conducted among primary school students and housewives to investigate their knowledge of coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis prevention and control. The control and elimination of endemic areas were evaluated according to the "Assessment Protocol for Control and Elimination of Key Endemic Diseases (2019 Edition)".Results:A total of 1 172 children were examined, and the detection rate of dental fluorosis was 7.76% (91/1 172), with a dental fluorosis index of 0.11. A total of 295 households were investigated, and the qualified improved stoves rate and the correct use rate of qualified improved stoves were 95.59% (282/295) and 100% (282/282), respectively. The correct drying rate of edible corn and chili peppers was 79.66% (235/295). The awareness rates of coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis prevention and control knowledge among housewives and primary school students were 46.69% (409/876) and 82.49% (440.5/534), respectively. Among the 9 villages investigated, two villages had met the criteria for eliminating endemic disease areas, two villages had met the criteria for controlling endemic disease areas, and the remaining 5 villages were uncontrolled.Conclusions:After implementing the comprehensive prevention and control measures mainly based on changing stoves, coal-burning-borne endemic fluorosis condition in Zhenxiong County has been effectively controlled, but there is still a significant gap between the elimination goals of some endemic fluorosis areas. Therefore, it is necessary to continue to strengthen prevention and control measures and promote health education.

Objective:To explore the guiding significance of Expanded Carrier Screening (ECS) for the fertility process of individuals undergoing Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) in Dalian.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the ECS results of patients who visited the Dalian Maternal and Child Health Care Center (Group) from January 2023 to June 2024. The study included the screening of 155 monogenic diseases and the ART status of carrier couples.Results:Among the 1 384 patient samples, 490 carriers were identified, yielding a detection rate of 35.41% (490/1 384). A total of 100 diseases and 91 pathogenic genes were detected. The most frequently identified disease was autosomal recessive hearing loss type 4 (SLC26A4), with a carrier rate of 3.54% (49/1384). For the 490 carriers, their partners were recalled for testing and, 322 partners participated. Eight high-risk couples were identified, accounting for 2.48% (8/322). Among the 322 couples, 4 used artificial insemination by husband (AIH, 1.24%, 4/322), 166 used in vitro fertilization (IVF, 51.55%, 166/322), 139 used intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI, 43.17%, 139/322), and 1 underwent preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic diseases (PGT-M, 0.31%, 1/322). Twelve couples (3.73%, 12/322) did not undergo ART, were not pregnant, or chose gamete donation. Among the eight high-risk couples, three underwent IVF, four underwent ICSI, and one underwent PGT-M. One couple conceived through ICSI, and the fetus was followed up. Amniotic fluid Sanger sequencing revealed that the fetus had compound heterozygous mutations in the PAH gene, with two suspected pathogenic variants at c.532G>A and c.1174T>A. One couple undergoing PGT-M currently has one retrieved oocyte and zero usable blastocysts. The embryo carries a paternal mutation and is aneuploid.Conclusions:This study not only identified the common pathogenic diseases in Dalian, providing a reference for clinical treatment, but also validated the critical significance of ECS for individuals undergoing ART.

Objective:To investigate the change trend in the burden of 5 common malignant tumors of digestive system (esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer and liver cancer) in the Chinese population from 1990 to 2021.Methods:The descriptive epidemio-logic method was conducted.
