Based on the opening-closing-pivot theory, this paper proposes that adolescent bipolar disorder is closely associated with taiyin (太阴), shaoyang (少阳), and jueyin (厥阴) channels. The principal pathogenesis involves dysfunction of the opening function of taiyin, impaired pivot function of shaoyang, and failure of the closing function of jueyin. Accordingly, the therapeutic principles include regulating taiyin to restore the ascending and descending movement of qi, harmonizing shaoyang to facilitate the pivot mechanism, and balancing yin and yang to reinforce the closing and storing function of jueyin. In clinical practice, Yihuang Powder (益黄散) and Tongxie Important Formula (痛泻要方) are commonly prescribed to regulate the qi movement of taiyin and restore its ascending and transporting functions, while Xiaochaihu Decoction (小柴胡汤) and Sini Powder (四逆散) are used to regulate the shaoyang pivot, and Wumei Pill (乌梅丸), Danggui Sini Decoction (当归四逆汤), and Huanglian Ejiao Decoction (黄连阿胶汤) combined with Shaoyao Gancao Decoction (芍药甘草汤) are employed to harmonize the jueyin closing mechanism. In addition, traditional daoyin (导引) exercise yi jin jing (易筋经) is incorporated to simultaneously regulate the body and mind by guiding internal regulation through external movement, thereby calming the body and tranquilizing the mind.

Airway mucus hypersecretion exhibits distinct circadian rhythmic characteristics, and its occurrence and progression are temporally associated with the accumulation of phlegm-rheum during the night and the tendency for symptoms to emerge or worsen in the early morning. These characteristics are consistent with the decline of neuroendocrine activity and abnormalities in core circadian clock rhythms described in modern chronobiology. Based on this understanding, time-based intervention is applied in addition to conventional syndrome differentiation. During the period from shen (申) hour to hai (亥) hour (approximately 15:00-23:00), phlegm-resolving and panting-relieving Chinese herbal medicinals can be administered in advance to reduce excessive phlegm accumulation during the night.Furthermore, a combined "time-pattern-medicine" therapeutic strategy is proposed. For attacks occurring mainly in the morning, treatment focuses on diffusing lung and resolving phlegm. For symptoms aggravated at night, emphasis is placed on clearing heat and resolving phlegm, and for episodes occurring after midnight, treatment should additionally consider both tonifying the kidney and promoting qi reception. In addition to pharmacological intervention, therapies that follow annual and daily rhythms, including winter disease treated in summer, and midnight-midday acupuncture, may also be incorporated to promote circadian rhythm coordination and maintain homeostasis of the body's biological clock.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.
