This paper has constructed a traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） specialized disease dataset platform for mixed hemorrhoids based on a multimodal large model， and the preliminary application has been validated. The platform uses StarRocks to establish a four-level data warehouse system， enabling the aggregation， cleaning， and standardization of multi-source heterogeneous data. Using DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-7B as the base model， domain fine-tuning is performed through low-rank adaptation （LoRA） technology. Combined with LLaMA-3.3 natural language processing and reasoning chain techniques， the platform enables intelligent parsing and structured extraction of unstructured TCM medical records. It accurately identifies six major categories and 28 subcategories of entities， including symptoms and syndromes， with a fine-tuned model F1 score of 93.8%. The platform has established a high-quality specialized disease dataset containing more than 50,000 medical records and has been applied in a real-world study involving 17,831 patients， preliminarily verifying the efficacy of TCM heritage surgery.

Background/Aims: The pathophysiology of refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease (RGERD), which differs from proton pump inhibitor dependent gastroesophageal reflux disease (DGERD), remains incompletely elucidated. This study aims to compare esophageal motility patterns, transdiaphragmatic pressure gradients (TPG), and reflux profiles between RGERD and DGERD patients, and to delineate dynamic pressure gradient-esophagogastric junction (EGJ) interactions in these patients. Methods: In this retrospective study, 274 patients who underwent 24-hour impedance-pH monitoring and high-resolution manometry, along with an assessment of proton pump inhibitor responsiveness, were classified as RGERD (32.5%), DGERD (54.4%), or non-GERD (13.1%). Clinical characteristics, TPG, esophageal motility, and reflux metrics were compared between RGERD and DGERD patients. Subgroup analysis excluding hiatal hernia (HH) was conducted to investigate the pathophysiology of RGERD. Results: The RGERD group exhibited a significantly higher proportion of chest pain compared to the DGERD group. Regarding reflux profiles, RGERD patients without HH (RGERDHH- group) experienced increased weakly acidic reflux (P < 0.001) and prolonged bolus exposure (P = 0.006) compared to their counterparts (DGERDHH- group). Mechanistically, the RGERDHH- group showed reduced lower esophageal sphincter basal pressure (P = 0.010) and EGJ contractile integral (P = 0.005). Notably, following a wet-swallow, the RGERDHH- group experienced the significant elevation in gastric pressure and TPG. Correlation analyses revealed weakly acidic reflux and bolus exposure were positively correlated with gastric pressure variation, and inversely correlated with lower esophageal sphincter basal pressure. Conclusions Transient gastric pressure elevation and compromised EGJ barrier function drive weakly acidic reflux and esophageal bolus exposure. This pressure gradient-barrier mismatch underpins the refractoriness of RGERD.

Puerariae Lobatae Radix and Puerariae Thomsonii Radix are the dried roots of Pueraria lobata and Pueraria thomsonii of the Leguminosae family， respectively. Since their separate inclusion in the 2005 edition of Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China， the two herbs have been individually recorded. Although they share the same functions and indications， the required content of puerarin differs by a factor of up to eightfold between them. The current quality standard relies solely on a single indicator， puerarin， which fails to reflect the correlation between chemical constituents and core therapeutic effects. This has resulted in prominent issues of mixed use in clinical practice and production， thereby constraining the high-quality development of the industry. Modern research has demonstrated that Puerariae Lobatae Radix contains a comprehensive range and higher content of isoflavonoid constituents， while Puerariae Thomsonii Radix is rich in starch and polysaccharides. Puerariae Lobatae Radix exhibits stronger effects in antipyresis， cardiovascular and cerebrovascular protection， and central analgesia， while Puerariae Thomsonii Radix demonstrates greater advantages in anti-inflammation， hypoglycemia， and peripheral analgesia. Based on this， the chemical material bases of Puerariae Lobatae Radix and Puerariae Thomsonii Radix at both the macromolecule and micromolecule levels were systematically reviewed and compared. The pharmacodynamic material bases and mechanisms of action underlying their three core therapeutic effects， namely "relieving exterior syndrome and clearing heat"， "promoting fluid production to quench thirst"， and "dredging channels and activating collaterals"， were summarized. The most highly correlated common metabolic pathway shared by both herbs for these three therapeutic effects is the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway， and their common core target is prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 （PTGS2）. This review provided clinical application recommendations based on the therapeutic differences between the two herbs， elucidated the scientific connotation of their "same origin but different effects"， and， grounded in the quality marker （Q-Marker）， proposed the concept of efficacy-related Q-Marker based on "substance-efficacy-syndrome" association， as well as a novel strategy for efficacy-oriented quality evaluation. Preliminary screening of quality markers associated with different therapeutic effects was also conducted. This study aims to provide critical scientific evidence for the precise clinical application of Puerariae Lobatae Radix and Puerariae Thomsonii Radix， the improvement of quality standards， and the high-quality development of the industry.

ObjectiveTo analyze the metabolomic characteristics of platelets in fibrinogen（FIB） overexpression rats of coronary heart disease with blood stasis syndrome（CHD-BSS）， explore potential biomarkers， and investigate the mechanism of FIB overexpression on CHD-BSS. MethodsSD rats were randomly divided into BSS group and BSS+FIB overexpression group（BSS+FIB group）， with 10 rats in each group. Both the BSS+FIB group and the BSS group were fed a high-fat diet combined with oral administration of vitamin D₃ and subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol， but rats in the BSS+FIB group were overexpressed with FIB during the initial modeling stage by transfection with adeno-associated virus（AAV）. The overexpression level of FIB in rat liver and plasma samples was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real time PCR）， as well as the expression level of liver FIB A（FGA） mRNA. The characteristics of metabolites in rat platelet samples were analyzed by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-electrostatic field orbital trap high-resolution mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS）， and the differential metabolites between groups were screened by principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA）， and the enriched pathways were analyzed. The accuracy of potential biomarkers in the diagnosis of CHD-BSS was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic（ROC） curve. The expression of autophagy related proteins phosphorylated adenosine monophosphate（AMP） activated protein kinase（p-AMPK）/AMPK， phosphorylated mammalian target of rapamycin（p-mTOR）/mTOR， microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3（LC3） Ⅱ/Ⅰ and p62 in platelets were detected by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the BSS group， the expression levels of FIB in liver and plasma samples of the BSS+FIB group were significantly increased（P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the expression level of FIB mRNA in the liver was remarkably increased（P<0.01）， indicating successful overexpression of FIB. Platelet metabolomics results showed significant differences in metabolic profiles between the BSS+FIB group and the BSS group， and a total of 25 significantly enriched metabolic pathways and 8 metabolites involved in these metabolic pathways， among which uric acid， guanosine and ribose 1-phosphate levels were up-regulated， while adenosine diphosphate（ADP）， AMP， guanosine diphosphate（GDP）， adenylosuccinate and norepinephrine levels were down-regulated. The diagnostic ability analysis of differential metabolites showed that all 8 differential metabolites had good diagnostic ability， with an area under the curve（AUC）>0.85. Western blot results showed that compared with the BSS group， the expression levels of p-mTOR/mTOR and p62 proteins in platelets of the BSS+FIB group was significantly reduced（P<0.01）， while the expression levels of p-AMPK/AMPK and LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ proteins were increased， but the difference was not statistically significant. ConclusionOverexpression of FIB can change the metabolic characteristics of CHD-BSS rat model， involving multiple aspects such as vascular endothelial injury， platelet activation and myocardial function damage. Among them， overexpression of FIB may enhance the occurrence of platelet autophagy， thereby inducing platelet activation and promoting thrombus formation.

Objective To investigate the current status and influencing factors of anticipatory grief of main caregivers of young and middle-aged patients with advanced liver cancer by cross-sectional survey.Methods A total of 330 caregivers of young and middle-aged patients with advanced liver cancer who were admitted to The Third Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from January 2023 to May 2023 were enrolled as research objects by convenience sampling.A questionnaire survey on general information,anticipatory grief and simple coping style was conducted on these caregivers one day before discharge.Results The score of anticipatory grief of the caregivers was 94.10±22.33.Multiple linear stepwise regression analysis was performed with statistically significant data from the characteristics of the research objects as independent variables and anticipatory grief as the dependent variable,and the result showed that gender,monthly income,educational level,personality self-assessment and coping were main factors affecting anticipatory grief of main caregivers of young and middle-aged patients with advanced liver cancer(all P<0.05).The mean score for positive response was 2.23±0.14,which was negatively associated with anticipatory grief(P=0.041).The mean score for negative response was 1.31±0.24,which was positively associated with anticipatory grief(P<0.001).Conclusion The anticipatory grief of main caregivers of young and middle-aged patients with advanced liver cancer is at a high level.The anticipatory grief is negatively related to positive coping,and positively related to negative coping.The main factors affecting anticipatory grief of main caregivers of young and middle-aged patients with advanced liver cancer are gender,family economic status,educational level,and introverted personality.

Objective To investigate and analyze the current situation regarding the implementation of hydration and renal function monitoring during perioperative period of peripheral vascular interventions,so as to provide references for effectively preventing contrast-induced nephropathy(CIN).Methods Through literature review,expert interview,and research group discussion,a survey questionnaire was designed.Using the"Wenjuanxing"platform,an investigation of the current situation about the implementation of hydration and renal function monitoring during perioperative period of peripheral vascular interventions was conducted among the medical staff of 141 hospitals in 27 provinces(autonomous regions/municipalities)from May to June of 2023.Results A total of 325 professionals participated in the survey,84.92％of whom(276/325)implemented hydration.A total of 265 medical workers gave feedback on intravenous hydration status:90.57％of them(240/265)adopted 0.9％sodium chloride solution,and the median volumes of infusion before,during and after surgery were all 1 000 mL.A total of 239 medical workers gave feedback on oral hydration status:56.07％of them(134/239)adopted quantitative drinking water mode,the amount of drinking water varied from a minimum of 500 mL to a maximum of 2 000 mL,which was given before surgery as well as within 6 hours after surgery.In addition,10.15％(33/325)of the respondents did not monitor creatinine levels,and 26.77％(87/325)of the respondents did not monitor urine volume.Conclusion At present,there is no unified hydration scheme during perioperative period of peripheral vascular interventions,and the monitoring of renal function is inadequate.It is necessary for medical staff to learn the knowledge of CIN prevention.At the same time,hydration strategies that are safe,effective,comfortable for patients and that can reduce the clinical workload of medical workers need to be further explored.

Objective:To investigate the application of Galectin-9 and Pentraxin3 in cardiotoxicity assessment during anthracycline chemotherapy in breast cancer patients.Methods:A total of 143 breast cancer patients who received anthracycline chemotherapy in Department of Breast, Shanxi Provincial People’s Hospital from Oct. 2021 to Oct. 2023 were separated into cardiotoxic group ( n=47) and non-cardiotoxic group ( n=96) according to whether cardiotoxicity occurred. Clinical data of patients were collected and the risk factors of cardiotoxicity were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression. The predictive efficacy of serum Galectin-9 and Pentraxin3 levels on cardiotoxicity was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) . Results:There was no statistically significant difference in age, body mass index, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein, high density lipoprotein, smoking history, drinking history, underlying disease (hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia) , tumor stage, pathological type, tumor size, anthracycline type, or dose between the two groups ( t=1.07, 1.22, 0.96, 0.43, 1.07, 0.50; χ 2=0.12, 1.20, 0.14, 0.01, 0.47, 0.14, 3.32, 3.83, 1.91, 3.18, P > 0.05) ; The levels of troponin and B-type brain natriuretic peptide in cardiotoxicity group were higher than those in non-cardiotoxicity group ( t=13.48, 10.28, P < 0.05) , and serum Galectin-9 and Pentraxin3 levels were also higher ( t=22.53, 17.92, P < 0.05) . Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that high levels of troponin, B-type brain natriuretic peptide, Galectin-9 and Pentraxin3 were all influential factors in the occurrence of cardiotoxicity ( OR=2.221, 2.050, 1.925, 1.976, P < 0.05) . ROC curve analysis showed that the area under curve of serum Galectin-9 for predicting cardiotoxicity was 0.722, the predictive sensitivity was 68.09%, and the specificity was 77.08%; The area under the curve of miR-135 for predicting cardiotoxicity was 0.636, the predictive sensitivity was 44.68%, and the specificity was 82.29%. Conclusion:Serum Galectin-9 and Pentraxin3 have high expression levels in breast cancer patients treated with anthracyclines, which are influential factors for the occurrence of cardiotoxicity after chemotherapy, and have high predictive value for the occurrence of cardiotoxicity in patients.

Objective To investigate the current status of hypertension in the old adults living in urban city and rural areas in Qinghai Plateau and analyze the related influencing factors in order to provide data and evidence for targeted formulation of preventive and control measures for the pop-ulation.Methods Cluster-random sampling was used to subject 1372 elderly people(aged ≥60 years)from 8 urban areas and 25 natural villages in Xining City,Qinghai Province.Questionnaires were used to collect their demographic data,body mass index(BMI),history of chronic diseases,and lipid-related indicators.According to complicated with hypertension or not,they were divided into a hypertension group(615 cases)and a non-hypertension group(757 cases).SPSS 26.0 soft-ware was employed to perform statistical analyses with descriptive analysis and multivarlate un-conditional logistic regression analysis.Results Among the 1372 elderly persons,615 participants had hypertension,and the overall prevalence was 44.8％,and that in urban area and rural area was 50.1％and 38.5％,respectively,with significant difference(P＜0.01).Statistical differences were observed between those with and without hypertension in terms of age,BMI,and proportions of coronary heart disease(CHD),diabetes and stroke(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).In the urban populations,there were obvious differences in marital status,BMI,and proportions of CHD and diabetes be-tween those with and without hypertension(P＜0.01).For the rural populations,notable differ-ences were observed in age and proportions of CHD and diabetes between those with and without hypertension(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis revealed that urban areas,obesity,CHD and diabetes were risk factors for hypertension in the elderly living in the urban and rural areas(OR=1.622,95％CI:1.299-2.026,P=0.000;OR=0.564,95％CI:0.315-1.006,P=0.042;OR=0.604,95％CI:0.417-0.874,P=0.008;OR=0.472,95％CI:0.328-0.678,P=0.000;OR=0.474,95％CI:0.334-0.673,P=0.000).Obesity,CHD and diabetes were risk factors for hypertension in those in the urban areas(OR=0.553,95％CI:0.317-0.963,P=0.036;OR=0.506,95％CI:0.320-0.800,P=0.004;OR=0.458,95％CI:0.303-0.692,P=0.000),and CHD and diabetes were risk factors in those in the rural areas(OR=0.382,95％CI:0.219-0.666,P=0.001;OR=0.452,95％CI:0.253-0.807,P=0.007).Conclusion There is sig-nificant difference in the prevalence of hypertension between the elderly living in the urban city and rural areas in Qinghai Plateau.The old adults with overweight,obesity,and complication of CHD and diabetes are prone to developing hypertension.

Objective To investigate the roles of glucose-regulated protein 75(GRP75)and voltage-dependent anion channel 1(VDAC1)in heroin-induced arrhythmia.Methods Based on transcriptomic data from primary myocardial cells treated with heroin and the GSE31821 dataset from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO),differentially expressed genes(DEGs)were identified using R software.Enrichment analysis of DEGs was performed.The protein-protein interaction(PPI)network was constructed using STRING database,and key genes were selected using Cytoscape.Molecular docking of key genes was performed using HDOCK,followed by in vivo valida-tion.A total of 60 SD rats were randomly divided into control,model,model+7 d,model+14 d,and model+21 d groups.A rat model of heroin addiction was established,and the expression levels of DEGs in myocardial tissue were assessed using immunohistochemical staining and quantitative real-time PCR.Results A total of 51 DEGs primarily enriched in muscle cell development,myofibrils,actin binding,arrhythmic right ventricular cardiomyopathy,calcium signaling,and apoptosis pathways were identified.Based on the PPI and Cytoscape analyses,GRP75 and VDAC1 were identified as key genes.Molecular docking indicated a strong interaction between GRP75 and VDAC1,which form a stable complex.The results of immunohistochemical staining and qRT-PCR showed that the expression levels of GRP75 and VDAC1 were significantly increased in the model group compared to those in the control group(P＜0.05),and their expres-sion increased(P＜0.05)with the intervention period of heroin in a time-dependent manner.Conclusion GRP75 and VDAC1 may con-tribute to heroin-induced arrhythmogenesis.

Objective To assess the efficacy and the survival rate of the hip joint following the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head(ONFH)with ultrasound-guided percutaneous intra-articular platelet-rich plasma(PRP)injection in combination with percutaneous silver needle thermalolysis.Methods Fifty-six patients diag-nosed with ARCO(Association Research Circulation Osseous)stage Ⅱ ONFH were randomly allocated into two groups.The first group,designated as the PRP injection combined with silver needle thermalolysis group(Group R,n=28),and the second group,the steroid injection combined with silver needle thermalolysis group(Group S,n=28).Both groups underwent three injections(administered at 4-week intervals)and one session of silver needle thermalolysis.Outcome measures,including the Numerical Rating Scale(NRS)for pain assessment,Harris Hip Score(HHS),daily consumption of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(etoricoxib)and tramadol,progression to ARCO stage Ⅲ,and the rates of surgical intervention,were recorded at baseline,3 days,and 1,3,6,and 12 months after the treatment.Results When compared to the baseline,both groups manifested significant decreases in NRS scores and enhancements in HHS at all follow-up time points(P<0.05).Specifically,Group R demonstrated more favorable outcomes compared to Group S.At 3,6,and 12 months,Group R had lower NRS scores(P<0.01)and more notable improvements in HHS(P<0.01).Additionally,the daily analgesic consumption(etoricoxib and tramadol)in Group R was significantly lower than that in Group S at 3,6,and 12 months(P<0.01).Moreover,Group R exhibited a significantly lower progression rate to ARCO stage III and a lower hip replacement surgery rate(P<0.05).Conclusions Ultrasound-guided intra-articular PRP injection in combination with silver needle therma-lolysis expedites pain alleviation,enhances hip function,reduces analgesic dependence,and retards the progression of ONFH.This approach thus represents a clinically viable option for early-stage intervention.
