This paper systematically reviews the core concepts and lines of theoretical inheritance of major spleen-stomach theories in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， including spleen deficiency theory， spleen-stomach damp-heat theory， and liver-spleen disharmony theory. It is found that these theories have all undergone a developmental trajectory characterized by classical foundation， refinement of therapeutic methods， systematization of pathogenesis， and modern innovation. The evolution of spleen-stomach theory has achieved a shift from a singular focus on tonifying the spleen to regulating dynamic middle-jiao （焦） balance， and from localized spleen-stomach regulation to the circular movement of qi involving all five zang organs. In terms of modern disease-syndrome integrative research， spleen deficiency syndrome is shown to be closely associated with impairment of the gastrointestinal mucosal barrier， metabolic disorders， and gene polymorphisms related to Helicobacter pylori-associated gastric diseases. Spleen-stomach damp-heat syndrome is closely linked to hyperactive energy metabolism， inflammatory cytokines， and abnormal expression of aquaporins. Liver-spleen disharmony syndrome is mainly associated with dysregulation of the brain-gut axis and microbiota-related metabolic disorders. It is proposed that future research on spleen-stomach diseases and syndromes should further elucidate their potential multidimensional differential biological characteristics， thereby promoting the modernization of the TCM discipline of spleen-stomach studies.

BACKGROUND:Peripheral nerve axon rupture seriously affects patients' physical function and mental health.Microsurgery,nerve autograft,nerve allograft,fibrin glue and catheter technology are the main treatments for peripheral nerve injury,each of which has its own advantages and disadvantages,but the overall treatment effect is not satisfactory.Despite the clinical success of Schwann cells in promoting axonal regeneration,there are still many challenges in the treatment with Schwann cells,such as slow expansion of Schwann cells,immune rejection,and low survival rate of transplanted cells.OBJECTIVE:To summarize the role and mechanism of Schwann cells in promoting the regeneration of peripheral nerve axons,and the difficulties and challenges of Schwann cells in the process of nerve regeneration treatment.METHODS:PubMed,Medline,WanFang,VIP,and CNKI were searched by computer using the search terms of"Schwann cells,synaptic Schwann cell,macrophage,peripheral nerve axon rupture,Wallerian degeneration,Peripheral nerve axon regeneration,Central nervous system repair"in English and Chinese.Literature related to Schwann cell proliferation and differentiation,promotion of peripheral nerve regeneration,and clinical applications was retrieved from database inception to October 2024,and a total of 95 articles were finally included for review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Schwann cells interact with macrophages,T cells and other cells,to initiate the regeneration process through signaling pathways,including Krox20/C-Jun,NRG-1/ErbB,Notch,MAPK,and PI3K/Akt/mTOR,synthesize and release nerve growth factors,and thus promote regeneration of the peripheral nervous system.Schwann cells have been experimentally demonstrated to have great potential in peripheral nerve repair and are expected to become the key target of therapeutic intervention.However,there are still problems such as difficulties in cell harvest and culture,as well as the occurrence of other diseases during the treatment process.

Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a common problem in military maritime navigation, which greatly affects the safety of military missions. The use of animal models to carry out research on the mechanism of CFS and treatment measures is a common method. This paper systematically introduced the construction methods of CFS models such as single-factor and multi-factor models, summarized common evaluation indicators of CFS, including behavioral and biochemical indicators, and summed up key characteristics of CFS animal models in military oceanic navigation combined with common causes of CFS in military contexts, such as prolonged continuous work, high-intensity physical activity, sleep deprivation, psychological stress, and extreme environmental conditions. The key characteristics of the animal models included, but not limited to, chronic fatigue, sleep disorders, impaired cognitive function, psychological stress responses, and abnormal biochemical indicators. Furthermore, this article identified future research directions for CFS animal models in military oceanic navigation to enhance the application value of the models and provide robust support for the health protection and disease prevention of military personnel.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the hemodynamic pattern of non-culprit vessel stenosis and long-term vessel-oriented composite outcome(VOCO) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).Methods:From January 2019 to December 2021, 233 consecutive patients with STEMI and non-culprit vessel stenosis were prospectively enrolled at Shanghai East Hospital. The median follow-up duration was 3.9 years. The 367 non-culprit vessels of the 233 patients were divided into the VOCO group (33 vessels, 9.0%) and the non-VOCO group (334 vessels, 91.0%). Parameters pertaining to the hemodynamic pattern of non-culprit vessel stenosis between the two groups were compared. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to assess the correlation between hemodynamic pattern and VOCO, and Cox multivariate regression and logistic multivariate regression analyses were applied to identify independent predictors of VOCO.Results:The 233 enrolled patients were aged (62.5±12.9) years, with 193 males (82.8%). In the VOCO group, the maximum quantitative flow ratio (QFR) decreased within 20 mm of the QFR-assessed segment, the difference in QFR across the entire vessel, the length of functionally significant vessel, and the maximum gradient of QFR decrease (dQFR/dsmax) were significantly greater than those in the non-VOCO group. ROC curve analysis showed that the optimal threshold for predicting VOCO using dQFR/dsmax was 0.009 6 (area under the curve: 0.691, 95% CI: 0.606-0.775, P<0.001). Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that dQFR/dsmax was an independent predictor of VOCO ( HR=1.199, 95% CI: 1.070-1.343, P=0.002). When anatomical and functional stenosis severities were included in the model, a high pullback pressure gradient (PPG) index ( HR=1.572, 95% CI: 1.052-2.351, P=0.027) emerged as an independent predictor of VOCO. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that a low PPG index( OR=2.851, 95% CI: 1.945-4.178, P<0.001) was an independent predictor of QFR≤0.80 without long-term VOCO. Conclusion:In patients with STEMI, localized hemodynamic patterns of coronary artery stenosis, characterized by high dQFR/dsmax and high PPG index, are associated with long-term VOCO.

Bladder tumor within inguinal bladder hernia is rare. This article reports a case of a male patient who was admitted to hospital due to gross hematuria，accompanied by lower abdominal pain when straining to urinate for two months. Physical examination revealed a irreducible mass in the left inguinal region. Ultrasound and MRI examinations suggested an inguinal bladder hernia complicated by multiple bladder lesions. Cystoscopy revealed extensive tumors，and pathological examination indicated high-grade urothelial carcinoma with carcinoma in situ. PET-CT confirmed pelvic lymph node metastasis. The patient underwent three cycles of neoadjuvant therapy followed by laparoscopic radical cystectomy combined with hernia repair. There was no evidence of recurrence of the hernia or tumor after one year of follow-up.

BACKGROUND:Paraspinal muscle degeneration is one of the main causative factors of low back pain,and the changes in the paraspinal muscles are closely related to its occurrence and development.At present,clinical practitioners focus on the changes of paraspinal muscles in degenerative lumbar diseases to prevent and treat lumbar diseases,but ignore the connection and related mechanisms between lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration and paraspinal muscles.OBJECTIVE:To comprehensively summarize the interaction between paraspinal muscles and lumbar intervertebral discs,and to review the relationship and mechanisms between lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration and paraspinal muscles,in order to provide a reference for clinical prevention and treatment.METHODS:Chinese keywords"lumbar intervertebral disc,paraspinal muscle,multifidus muscle,low back pain,degeneration,imaging,magnetic resonance imaging"were used to search the relevant literature in Chinese databases such as CNKI,VIP,and WanFang.English keywords"lumbar disc,paraspinal muscle,multifidus muscle,low back pain,degeneration,imaging,MRI"were used to search the relevant literature in databases such as Medline,PubMed,and Web of Science.After preliminary screening of titles and abstracts,68 articles were finally selected for result analysis according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Researchers have used various methods to evaluate the degree of paraspinal muscle degeneration,and at the same time evaluated the degree of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration according to the Pfirrmann grading system.It is found that clinical diagnosis and treatment should pay attention to gender differences,and the influence of factors such as obesity on the degeneration of intervertebral discs and muscles,in order to develop more individualized treatment plans.(2)There is a certain correlation between lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration and paraspinal muscle fat infiltration,but the research results are controversial.Most studies have found that fat infiltration of the paraspinal muscles(especially the multifidus muscle)is positively correlated with the degree of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration.(3)It is currently believed that the three mechanisms of disuse atrophy,denervation,and inflammatory factors may interact with each other to jointly lead to structural and functional changes in the paraspinal muscles,which are closely related to the occurrence of lumbar intervertebral disc degeneration and low back pain.(4)Clinically,attention should be paid to the changes of the muscles at the level below the affected nerve root segment,which is helpful for the diagnosis and localization of lumbar radiculopathy.At the same time,inhibition of inflammatory factors may become a potential target for treatment.(5)Clinically,the first step is to correct nerve root compression through appropriate medication or surgery to control inflammatory reactions and nerve root pain,and then carry out targeted muscle rehabilitation training.If necessary,consider using new treatment methods such as interferential current electrical stimulation to improve the patient's symptoms and prognosis.
