Sinusitis is a prevalent nasal disease in children, characterized by chronic and difficult-to-treat symptoms. Its onset is related to nasal stagnation, gallbladder and lung dysfunctions. This article explores the root cause based on Huangdi Neijing by considering the physiological and pathological characteristics of children. The core pathogenesis of pediatric sinusitis is the transmission of heat from the gallbladder and lung to the brain and nose, disrupting normal nasal function. Wind and heat pathogens often persist, accumulate, and transform into turbid qi, which are common triggers of the disease. Evil qi retention and yin depletion are internal factors that cause the prolonged and unhealed condition of the disease. This article emphasizes individualized treatment approaches based on disease duration and the severity of pathogenic factors. If external pathogens remain uncleared, treatment should focus on dispelling wind, clearing heat, dispersing with pungent medicinals, and dredging nasal orifices. If internal fire is exuberant, clearing lung qi, inhibiting hyperactive liver yang, and clearing exuberant fire should be used to relieve stagnation. In chronic cases with residual pathogens and liver-kidney yin deficiency, nourishing yin, clearing fire, and moistening the nasal orifices are essential. When exuberant heat has subsided, but the symptom of a persistent runny nose continues, leading to the loss of healthy qi and damage to the lung and spleen, treatments that tonify the spleen, benefit the lung, and reinforce healthy qi should be adopted to relieve stagnation. These treatments aim to restore the balance of the body′s vital qi by addressing both the lingering symptoms and the underlying weakness of the lung and spleen. The diagnosis and treatment of pediatric sinusitis based on the theory of "the transmission of heat from gallbladder and lung" can help reduce the recurrence of sinusitis and alleviate symptoms, with the aim of broadening the approach of traditional Chinese medicine in treating this condition.

Based on the viewpoint of "sweat pore-qi and liquid-kidney collaterals"， it is believed that children's nephrotic syndrome is caused by the core mechanism of sweat pore constraint and closure， qi and liquid imbalance， and kidney collaterals impairment， and it is proposed that the treatment principle is to nourish the sweat pore， regulate qi and fluid， and supplement the kidney and unblock the collaterals. In clinic， guided by sequential therapy and according to the different disease mechanism characteristics of the four stages， including early stage of the disease， hormone induction stage， hormone reduction stage， hormone maintenance stage， the staged dynamic identification and treatment was applied. For early stage of the disease with edema due to yang deficiency， modified Zhenwu Decoction （真武汤） was applied to warm yang and drain water； for hormone induction stage with yin deficiency resulting in effulgent fire， modified Zhibai Dihuang Pill （知柏地黄丸） plus Erzhi Pill （二至丸） was used to enrich yin and reduce fire； for hormone reduction stage with qi and yin deficiency， modified Shenqi Dihuang Decoction （参芪地黄汤） was used to boost qi and nourish yin； for hormone maintenance stage， modified Shenqi Pill （肾气丸） was used to supplement yin and yang. Meanwhile， the treatment also attaches importance to the combination of vine-based or worm medicinals to dredge collaterals， so as to providing ideas for clinical treatment.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a common disease of the knee joint, which affects the stability of the knee joint. As an emerging field, artificial intelligence (AI) has developed rapidly in the diagnosis and treatment of ACL injury in recent years, improving the accuracy and timeliness of the whole diagnosis and treatment process to improve the prognosis of ACL injury. This article reviews the research progress of AI in diagnosis of ACL injury, ACL reconstruction, prediction of postoperative outcomes, and postoperative rehabilitation. We hope this information may help surgeons to improve the success rate of AI in diagnosis and treatment of ACL injury and provide cutting-edge technical support to improve patient outcomes.

IgA vasculitis is a common childhood vasculitis disorder.Its primary clinical manifestation is cutaneous purpura,which is often accompanied by gastrointestinal and joint symptoms.Renal involvement can present as hematuria or proteinuria.This condition is recurrent and protracted,significantly affecting the health of children.The pathogenic factors in pediatric IgA vasculitis are diverse."Wind-toxin damaging collaterals"is presented as the core pathogenesis based on clinical practice and theoretical exploration.This concept essentially entails the latent attack of wind-toxin,collateral damage leading to blood extravasation,and healthy qi deficiency and lingering toxins,with the disease primarily located in the collateral vessels.The disease course is divided into three stages:acute,lingering,and recovery.Clinical practice should adhere to the pathogenesis principles and apply stage-based pattern differentiation and treatment.The acute stage involves wind-toxin attacking collaterals with dampness-heat accumulation.Treatment focuses on dispersing wind,clearing heat,and eliminating dampness to expel wind-toxin from the muscular exterior.The self-prescribed Qufeng Xiaodian Formula is a frequently selected modified formula.The lingering stage features latent wind-toxin in the collaterals and congealed accumulations in the kidney collaterals.Treatment aims to resolve wind-toxin,disperse stasis,and eliminate accumulation to remove densely accumulated wind-toxin.A modified Taohong Siwu Decoction is selected.The recovery stage involves deficient healthy qi with persistent wind assault and lingering toxins.Emphasis should be placed on cultivating the fundamental,strengthening the root,and nourishing yin,as well as supporting the healthy qi to dispel wind and expel toxins,while conditioning the body to prevent recurrence.A modified Guomin Decoction is selected.Clinical application emphasizes the combination of characteristic medicines,such as wind medicines to expel pathogens,insect medicines to identify collaterals,and vine medicines to unblock the meridians,to enhance the effects of identifying wind,resolving toxins,unblocking collaterals,and dispersing congealed accumulations.This study aims to systematically elaborate on the stage-based treatment strategy from the perspective of"wind-toxin damaging collaterals,"providing a theoretical basis and clinical practice reference for the traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment of pediatric IgA vasculitis.

The main pathogenesis of chronic cough in children is the disorder of ascending and descending of qi movement caused by healthy qi deficiency and pathogenic qi retention. The deficiency of lung， spleen， and kidney is the root of the disease， and the retention of phlegm-fluid， food accumulation， and fire from constraint is the branch pathogenesis of the disease. In the treatment， we should reinforce and tonify healthy qi， dispel pathogen and regulate qi， with Yupingfeng Powder （玉屏风散） as the basic prescription. For lung qi deficiency syndrome， modified Yupingfeng Powder could be used for supplementing lung to consolidate the exterior； for lung and spleen qi deficiency syndrome， modified Yupingfeng Powder plus Shenling Baizhu Powder （参苓白术散） could be used for supplementing lung and fortifying the spleen， treating with both supplementation and transformation； for lung kidney qi deficiency syndrome， modified Yupingfeng Powder combined with Suzi Jiangqi Decoction （苏子降气汤） could be used for supplementing lung and replenishing kidneys， absorbing qi to the root. All the above prescriptions could combine the method of dispelling phlegm， promoting digestion and guiding out food stagnation， soothing the liver and draining fire to remove the solid pathogens， in order to treat the root and branch simultaneously， and the cough will stop if the ascending and descending of qi movement recover as usual.
