Neurological diseases have high morbidity and disability rates， posing a severe threat to human health. Cli nical manifestations include motor， sensory， cognitive and conscious disorders. Chaihu jia longgu muli decoction is derived from Treatise on Febrile Diseases ， with the effects of harmonizing Shaoyang， activating Yang and clearing heat， and tranquilizing the mind. This paper systematically reviews the research progress in clinical application and mechanism of Chaihu jia longgu muli decoction in the field of neurological diseases. It has been found that the decoction shows favorable efficacy in various neurological diseases such as insomnia， depression， epilepsy， vertigo， migraine and vascular dementia. The specific mechanisms are related to regulating neurotransmitter levels， repairing neuronal function， alleviating neuroinflammation， improving mitochondrial dysfunction and regulating intestinal flora. In the future， standardized prospective follow-up cohorts should be established， and core outcome indicators should be clearly defined to strengthen the evidence base. Furthermore， multidisciplinary research should be leveraged to expand the therapeutic value of Chaihu jia longgu muli decoction in the management of neurological diseases.

As a common medical condition， vertigo can be induced by multiple diseases in the modern medical system. Its incidence rate shows an upward trend with the increase in age. According to the theory of mutual interference between clear Qi and turbid Qi in Huangdi's Internal Classic （Huang Di Nei Jing）， this paper systematically analyzes the pathogenesis of vertigo and explores the mechanism and clinical application value of Xiao Chaihutang in the treatment of vertigo. It is believed that the mutual inference between clear Qi and turbid Qi leads to the failure of clear Yang to ascend， resulting in the lack of nourishment for the brain and the inability of turbid Yin to descend， which disturbs the clear orifices， thus causing vertigo. The core pathogenesis lies in the dysfunction of Qi movement， the disorder of body fluid distribution， and the imbalance between Yin and Yang. The compatibility of Xiao Chaihutang takes into account the methods of pungent medicinal materials opening and bitter medicinal materials descending， tonifying deficiency and purging excess， and regulating Qi movement. This prescription can regulate the pathological state of the mutual interference between clear Qi and turbid Qi from three aspects： regulating Qi movement throughout the body， harmonizing the distribution of body fluids， and coordinating Yin and Yang as well as the interior and exterior， thus preventing and treating vertigo. Modern research findings show that Xiao Chaihutang can improve hemodynamics to promote cerebral blood circulation and has anti-inflammation， immunomodulatory， and anti-tumor functions， which correspond to the therapeutic effects of Xiao Chaihutang under the theory of mutual interference between clear Qi and turbid Qi. The decoction exerts therapeutic effects on vertigo caused by hypertension， stroke， otitis media， Meniere’s disease， and brain tumor as well as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. Further exploration of the theoretical connotation of mutual inference between clear Qi and turbid Qi and analysis of the pathogenesis of vertigo and the therapeutic effect of Xiao Chaihutang can better interpret the internal correlations among the three， thus providing new ideas for the syndrome differentiation and treatment of vertigo.

Objective:To improve the understanding of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with pulmonary cryptococcosis.Methods:The clinical data of 1 DLBCL patient with pulmonary cryptococcosis in the Central Hospital of Fengxian District of Shanghai in May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:This 75-year-old female patient was asymptomatic after 2 cycles of R-CHOP chemotherapy. The high-resolution CT of lung showed that lung nodules were progressively enlarged. Antibacterial treatment was ineffective. Pulmonary cryptococcosis was confirmed by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) targeted high-throughput sequencing (tNGS) and cryptococcus capsular antigen (CrAg) detection. The central nervous system was not involved. And the long-term adequate-dose fluconazole was prescribed for 6 months, and the treatment against lymphoma was given synchronously. The lung nodule lesions reduced after antifungal therapy for 1 month. The lung nodules disappeared after the follow-up of 6 months after completion of final chemotherapy. The evaluation of lymphoma indicated complete remission.Conclusions:Pulmonary cryptococcosis occurs insidiously and shows no specific symptoms; its imaging manifestations are variable and routine anti-infection is ineffective. Immunochemotherapy for lymphoma patients is a high-risk factor for cryptococcal infection. tNGS and CrAg testing for BALF are effective methods of the confirmed diagnosis. The early and long-term adequate-dose antifungal treatment is the key to preventing the recurrence or progression.

Osteoarthritis (OA) causes chronic pain that significantly impairs quality of life, with current treatments often proving insufficient and accompanied by adverse effects. Recent research has identified the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and its resident macrophages as crucial mediators of chronic OA pain through neuroinflammation driven by macrophage polarization. We present a novel injectable thermo-sensitive hydrogel system, KAF@PLEL, designed to deliver an anti-inflammatory peptide (KAF) specifically to the DRG. This biodegradable hydrogel enables sustained KAF release, promoting the reprogramming of DRG macrophages from pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory phenotypes. Through comprehensive in vitro and in vivo studies, we evaluated the hydrogel's biocompatibility, effects on macrophage polarization, and therapeutic efficacy in chronic OA pain management. The system demonstrated significant capabilities in preserving macrophage mitochondrial function, suppressing neuroinflammation, alleviating chronic OA pain, reducing cartilage degradation, and improving motor function in OA rat models. The sustained-release properties of KAF@PLEL enabled prolonged therapeutic effects while minimizing systemic exposure and side effects. These findings suggest that KAF@PLEL represents a promising therapeutic approach for improving outcomes in OA patients through targeted, sustained treatment.

Objective: To investigate the current status and trends of depressive symptoms among middle school and college students in Hunan Province, and to explore the primary related factors of depressive symptoms, so as to provide a scientific basis for strengthening mental health among students. Methods: A total of 279 382 students in Hunan Province were selected through a stratified cluster random sampling method from 2021 to 2023. National Survey Questionnaire on Common Diseases and Health Influencing Factors among Students was adopted for the survey, and the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale was used to assess their depressive symptoms. The χ 2 test and trend χ 2 test were used to analyze depressive symptoms prevalence and trends, and multivariable Logistic regression was used to analyze the related factors of depressive symptoms. Results: The prevalence of depressive symptoms among students in Hunan Province from 2021 to 2023 were 19.66%, 20.17% and 21.47%, respectively, showing an upward trend ( χ 2 trend =9.07, P <0.01). In addition, the results of the multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that students with healthy diet ( OR=0.43, 95%CI =0.40-0.45), adequate sleep ( OR=0.88, 95%CI =0.86-0.90), and acceptable screen time ( OR=0.61, 95%CI =0.60-0.62) had lower risks in depressive symptoms detection, while students with smoking ( OR= 1.95, 95%CI =1.88-2.02), secondhand smoke exposure ( OR=1.33, 95%CI =1.30-1.36) and Internet addiction ( OR= 4.19 , 95%CI =4.05-4.34) had higher risks in depressive symptoms detection, with differences in the degree of association among different genders, educational stages and urban rural groups ( OR=0.40-6.04, Z =-12.69-11.98) ( P <0.05). Conclusions There is an increasing trend of depressive symptoms among middle school and college students in Hunan Province from 2021 to 2023.Targeted depression prevention measures should be taken for students with different demographic characteristics to promote their mental health.

Sacroiliac complex injuries are commonly seen in high-energy pelvic fractures. The injuries make a big difference in treatment patterns due to the diverse injury types, posing considerable challenges in formulating optimal treatment strategies, and hence are persistent clinical difficulties in orthopedic trauma. The clinical management of sacroiliac complex injuries presents several key challenges such as a non-negligible rate of missed diagnoses in associated vascular and visceral injuries, absence of standardized protocols for surgical approaches and reduction-fixation strategies across different injury patterns, and ongoing controversies regarding surgical indications and optimal timing for patients combined with concomitant lumbosacral plexus injuries. Currently, no systematic clinical guidelines are available for the diagnosis and treatment of sacroiliac complex injuries both domestically and internationally. To this end, the Pelvic and Acetabular Surgery Group, Orthopedic Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care and Orthopedic Physician Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized a panel of domestic experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of sacroiliac complex injuries ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medicine and adhering to the principles of scientific rigor, clinical applicability, and innovation. These guidelines provided 11 recommendations covering diagnosis, therapeutic principles and techniques, management protocols for lumbosacral plexus injuries, outcome evaluation, and postoperative rehabilitation pathways, etc., aiming to standardize the clinical management of sacroiliac complex injuries.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of allopurinol in stable coronary heart disease patients with asymptomatic hyperuricemia (AH).Methods:Sixty stable coronary heart disease with AH patients admitted to the Changsha Third Hospital from January 2022 to December 2023 were selected. Patients were randomly divided into an observation group (allopurinol treatment group) and a control group (placebo group). The results of tablet exercise tests, treatment efficacy, blood uric acid levels, liver and kidney function indicators, and incidence of adverse events were compare and analyzed between two groups of patients.Results:The observation group had better exercise termination time, maximum ST descent time, and ST recovery time than the control group (all P<0.05). The total effective rate of the observation group after 6 weeks of treatment was significantly higher than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=5.455, P=0.02). There was no statistically significant difference in blood uric acid levels and liver and kidney function indicators between the two groups before treatment (all P>0.05). After treatment, both groups showed significant improvement in blood uric acid levels and liver and kidney function indicators compared to before treatment (all P<0.05). The levels of blood uric acid and liver and kidney function indicators in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group after treatment (all P<0.05). The incidence of adverse events in the observation group during treatment was lower than that in the control group (χ 2=5.192, P=0.023). Conclusions:Allopurinol has a certain therapeutic effect on stable coronary heart disease with asymptomatic hyperuricemia, which helps patients enhance their physical activity and reduce the incidence of cardiovascular events.

Hepatic angiomyolipoma （HAML） is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor frequently observed in middle-aged women. Due to the absence of prominent symptoms in the early stage and the lack of specific imaging findings， the diagnosis of this disease can be challenging， leading to a high rate of misdiagnosis. This article reports a case of giant HAML with subcapsular rupture that was misdiagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma and introduces the characteristics of the case and its diagnosis and treatment process， in order to provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of this type of disease.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors of the course of perioperative prophylactic antibiotics in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty,and explore management strategies for enhancing perioperative prophylactic medication administration.Methods The clinical data for patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty at Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu University from January,2020 to September,2024 were retrospectively collected.Patients were divided into a 24 h group and a 48-72 h group based on the duration of prophylactic antibacterial therapy.The general characteristics,surgical-related indicators,preoperative and postoperative laboratory test results,and surgical outcome measures between the two groups of patients were compared.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify influencing factors associated with prolonged duration of prophylactic antibacterial therapy.Results A total of 126 patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty were enrolled,including 74 cases in the 24 h group and 52 cases in the 48-72 h group.Univariate analysis results showed that there were statistically significant differences in the following indicators between the two groups:surgical cause,surgical duration,intraoperative blood loss,drainage duration of plasma drainage tubes,preoperative white blood cell count,and preoperative neutrophil count(P<0.05).The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the reason for surgery and the duration of plasma drain tube drainage were the influencing factors of antimicrobial treatment course for total hip arthroplasty(P<0.05).The results of receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the prediction model(constructed based on the drainage time of plasma drainage tube)for prophylactic antimicrobial treatment course to 48-72 h was 0.721.When the drainage time of plasma drainage tubes was≥40.56 h,the risk of requiring prophylactic antimicrobial therapy for an extended course of 48-72 h increased significantly.Conclusion The patient's surgical reason and the duration of plasma drain drainage may be related to the prophylactic antimicrobial course of more than 24 hours.Clinical pharmacists may utilize this parameter as a patient-specific characteristic,with the support of information systems,the hierarchical patient management can be implemented,thereby enhancing the effectiveness of medication surveillance and progressively elevating the 24 h discontinuation rate of perioperative prophylactic antibiotics.
