ObjectiveTo analyze the distribution characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） constitution and factors associated with hyperuricemia （HUA） in the HUA population， providing a reference for persona-lized prevention and management of HUA. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted among individuals who had completed both serum uric acid （SUA） testing and TCM constitution identification during health examinations. According to SUA levels， participants were divided into a hyperuricemia group and a normal SUA group； according to the constitution identification results， participants were classified into balanced constitution， single biased constitution， and mixed constitution. The distribution characteristics of TCM constitution were compared between the two groups； participants in the hyperuricemia group were stratified by sex and age （≥18 years and ＜40 years， ≥40 years）， and the distribution characteristics of TCM constitution were compared across different sex and age groups. Logistic regression was used to analyze factors associated with HUA， with further stratified analyses by sex and age. ResultsA total of 10 920 participants were included， comprising 4170 cases （38.19%） in the hyperuricemia group and 6750 cases （61.81%） in the normal serum uric acid group. According to TCM constitution， there were 420 cases （3.85%） with balanced constitution， 6108 cases （55.93%） with single biased constitution， and 4392 cases （40.22%） with mixed constitution. In the hyperuricemia group， there were 80 cases （19.05%） with balanced constitution； 2275 cases （37.25%） with single biased constitution， among which damp-heat constitution （1205 cases， 52.97%）， phlegm-dampness constitution （500 cases， 21.98%）， and qi-stagnation constitution （181 cases， 7.96%） accounted for relatively high proportions； and 1815 cases （41.33%） with mixed constitution， among which mixed constitution involving phlegm-dampness （51.35%， 932 cases）， mixed constitution involving blood stasis （47.00%， 853 cases）， and mixed constitution involving damp-heat （41.21%， 748 cases） accounted for relatively high proportions. Logistic regression showed that qi-stagnation constitution （OR=1.68）， mixed constitution involving qi-stagnation （OR=1.53）， mixed constitution involving phlegm-dampness （OR=1.55）， and mixed constitution involving blood stasis （OR=1.50） were independently associated with HUA （P＜0.05）. Sex-stratified analysis showed that mixed constitution involving phlegm-dampness was positively associated with HUA risk in females； age-stratified analysis showed that， among individuals aged ≥18 and ＜40 years， qi-stagnation constitution， mixed constitution involving qi stagnation， and mixed constitution involving phlegm-dampness were positively associated with HUA risk （all P＜0.05）. ConclusionThe prevalence of HUA differs markedly by sex and age. Mixed constitution accounts for a higher proportion of HUA patients. Qi-stagnation constitution， mixed constitution involving qi stagnation， mixed constitution involving phlegm-dampness， and mixed constitution involving blood stasis are associated with HUA. Notably， the specific association of mixed constitution involving phlegm-dampness in females and qi-stagnation constitution in young adults is particularly prominent.

This article discusses the key pathogenesis of atherosclerosis （AS） based on the physiological characteristics and pathological changes of lipids and introduces the therapeutic effect of Zhuyuwan on AS， aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases from the spleen. As essential substances， lipids have the same essence but different forms. They circulate throughout the body with body fluids under the action of Yang Qi to nourish the nutrient Qi and support the defensive Qi. Lipid metabolism disorder often leads to the obstruction of Qi movement， the accumulation of dampness and turbidity， and the generation of phlegm and blood stasis. It has been proven that the formation of vulnerable plaques in AS is attributed to the interaction of three pathogenic factors： deficiency of healthy Qi， phlegm-turbidity， and collateral stasis. Their pathological essence is closely related to abnormal lipid metabolism. As lipids constitute the thick and dense components of body fluids， their impaired dispersion may lead to phlegm-turbidity and blood stasis， the pathological process of which is predominantly ascribed to the dysfunction of the spleen in distributing essence. Therefore， AS is rooted in spleen-stomach disorder， manifests as plaques formed by pathological product accumulation in vessels， with lipid transport disorder as its core pathogenesis. Specifically speaking， the dysfunction of spleen in transportation with accumulation of dampness-turbidity marks the initial stage， and blood turbidity and coagulation and phlegm-nodules accumulating in vessels represent the intermediate phase. Cold accumulation and stagnated heat transforming into toxins represent the terminal stage. Zhuyuwan， first recorded in Taiping Holy Prescriptions for Universal Relief， contains equal proportions of Coptidis Rhizoma and Evodiae Fructus. Coptidis Rhizoma， bitter and cold， exerts descending and purging actions to assist stomach Qi in lowering turbidity. Evodiae Fructus， pungent-bitter and hot， disperses obstruction and promotes free flow to support spleen Qi in ascending the clear. The compatibility of Coptidis Rhizoma and Evodiae Fructus ascends the clear and descends the turbid to harmonize Yin and Yang， assisting the spleen in distributing essence and resolving lipid accumulation to reduce lipid levels. In terms of the therapeutic mechanism， Zhuyuwan modulates lipid metabolism by correcting immune-inflammation network imbalance， improving gut microbiota composition and metabolism， and enhancing reverse cholesterol transport. By analyzing the pathological characteristics of lipid transport disorder in AS， this study delves into the intrinsic connections between cardiovascular disease and lipid transport disorder， giving novel insights into the prevention and treatment of AS.

Objective:To explore the mechanisms and clinical manifestations of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) caused by exertional heat stroke.Methods:Analyze the clinical data of a patient with exertional heat stroke in Yichang Central People's Hospital and review relevant literature to evaluate the association between heat stroke and DIC, summarizing clinical presentations and laboratory findings.Results:The patient exhibited symptoms such as high fever and altered consciousness after engaging in intense labor in a high-temperature environment. Laboratory tests showed a platelet count of 43×10 9/L, D-dimer level of 5.3 mg/L, and prothrombin time of 21.8 s, which are consistent with a diagnosis of DIC. Following prompt cooling, fluid resuscitation, appropriate anticoagulant, goal-directed replacement therapy and supportive therapy, the patient’s condition gradually improved. Conclusion:Exertional heat stroke can lead to DIC, and clinical attention should be paid to its early recognition and intervention. Effective coagulation management and timely anticoagulant and supportive therapy are crucial for improving prognosis.

Jupi Zhurutang originated from Synopsis of the Golden Chamber （《金匮要略》）， which consists of Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae， Caulis Bambusae in Taenia， Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma， Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens， Jujubae Fructus， and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma and is used to treat retching. It has been put on the list of Catalogue of Ancient Classical Prescription （First Batch） released by National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine. With the bibliometric method， we searched the medical classics containing Jupi Zhurutang and systematically examined the information on the origin of the prescription， the indications， compatibility rule， medicinals in the prescription， dosage and usage， processing method， and decocting method. It was found that there are many versions of Jupi Zhurutang， and there are common grounds of main symptoms， pathogenesis， composition and dosage between the same prescription with different names and different prescriptions with the same name. The prescription which is closest to the original version in Synopsis of the Golden Chamber is mainly used for the treatment of stomach deficiency and qi counterflow without obvious cold or heat. According to the weights and measures， ratio of Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae， Caulis Bambusae in Taenia， Radix Ginseng， Rhizoma Zingiberis Recens， and Radix Ginseng in Synopsis of the Golden Chamber is approximately 6∶2∶8∶5∶1. The Jupi Zhurutang derived from other ancient classics such as Yanshi Jisheng Fang（《严氏济生方》） is a different prescription for hiccups caused by the stomach heat， and the ratio of Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae to Caulis Bambusae in Taenia in this prescription is about 1∶1. It is also found that cold herbs such as Red Poria， Eriobotryae Folium and Ophiopogon Japonicus are added to the formula in later generations. Therefore， the Jupi Zhurutang used in modern times is mostly modified and different from that in Synopsis of the Golden Chamber. This study summarizes the historical evolution of Jupi Zhurutang and identifies the key information， with a view to providing a reference for the rational modification of this prescription in clinical settings and further research.
