Acute pancreatitis(AP)is a frequently encountered acute abdominal syndrome in clinical settings,and the integrated model of traditional Chinese and Western medicine(TCM-WM)has demonstrated notable advantages in the diagnosis and treatment of AP.To systematize and standardize clinical practices related to develop clinical pathway for integrated TCM-WM diagnosis and treatment of AP,which enhances the efficiency and quality of patient care.This pathway focuses on AP,a common acute and life-threatening disease within the digestive system,and outlines that the central pathological mechanism involves pancreatic injury and localized inflammation resulting from the abnormal activation of pancreatic enzymes.It has the characteristics of rapid onset,multiple causes,and complex manifestations.Severe cases can be life-threatening.At present,conventional treatments encompass a diverse range of modalities.Moreover,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)holds distinct advantages in alleviating relevant symptoms,and TCM-WM is gaining increasing prevalence.To enhance the standardization and consistency of diagnostic and therapeutic practices,this clinical pathway clearly delineates the target patient population,which includes individuals diagnosed with abdominal pain disorder according to TCM and with AP in accordance with WM criteria,as well as the corresponding inclusion standards.The diagnostic framework integrates both TCM and WM guidelines,and further incorporates disease staging,severity grading,and syndrome differentiation to support a comprehensive and integrated diagnostic strategy.The treatment integrates approaches from both TCM and WM.Within the WM framework,interventions consist of basic supportive care,infection control,nutritional support,and the management of complications.In the context of TCM,the protocol includes syndrome differentiation and corresponding therapeutic strategies(Distinct syndrome patterns are identified and managed during the acute and convalescent phases),such as acupuncture and retention enema.This clinical pathway addresses multiple key components,including preventive strategies,post-treatment follow-up,criteria for evaluating therapeutic efficacy,admission and discharge,admission examination protocols,discharge criteria,and the rationale for deviations or withdrawal from the pathway.It is designed to provide a systematic and standardized reference framework for relevant clinical practices.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of periosteum-covered iliac crest autografts for treatment of severe osteochondral lesions of talus (OCLTs).Methods:A retrospective case series study was used to analyze the clinical data of 26 patients with severe OCLTs treated at Zhejiang Armed Police Corps Hospital from January 2013 to October 2019. There were 21 males and 5 females,aged 17-49 years [(36.3 ± 10.9)years]. All patients were treated using periosteum-covered iliac crest autografts. The visual analogue scale (VAS),American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score and ankle joint range of motion (ROM) were assessed before operation,6 months after operation and at the last follow-up (≥ 12 months). The area of talus injury with MRI at the same level was recorded before operation and at the last follow-up. The healing of talus and joint surface was detected with CT at the last follow-up. The healing of the incision and osteotomy site and complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed for 12 to 22 months[(15.1 ± 3.2)months]. The VAS was (2.4 ± 0.9)points and (1.7 ± 0.6)points at postoperative 6 months and at the last follow-up,significantly lower than the preoperative (5.4 ± 1.2)points ( P < 0.01). Meanwhile,the VAS at the last follow-up was significantly lower than that at postoperative 6 months ( P < 0.01). The AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was (71.7 ± 7.8)points and (87.8 ± 6.2) points at postoperative 6 months and at the last follow-up,significantly lower than the preoperative (66.5 ± 7.5) points ( P < 0.01). Meanwhile,the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot at the last follow-up was significantly lower than that at postoperative 6 months ( P < 0.01). The ankle ROM was (58.4 ± 5.5)° and (70.0 ± 4.9)° at postoperative 6 months and at the last follow-up,significantly improved when compared to the preoperative (42.3 ± 8.1)° ( P < 0.01). Meanwhile,the ankle ROM at the last follow-up was significantly improved when compared to that at postoperative 6 months ( P < 0.01). The area of talus injury with MRI at the same level was 0.67(0.55,0.89)cm 2 at the last follow-up,significantly improved when compared to preoperative 2.64(1.98,3.68)cm 2 ( P < 0.01). The transplantation had neither obvious defects nor joint surface steps based on CT findings. All surgical incisions were healed by first intention. There were no complications such as incision infection,skin necrosis,nonunion of osteotomy,malunion or severe ankle joint disorder except that 8 patients had residual local subchondral bone?marrow?edema-like?signal?and 2 patients showed delayed healing of medial malleolus osteotomy. Conclusion:For patients with severe OCLTs,periosteum-covered iliac crest autografts can effectively relieve ankle pain,improve ankle function,and reduce the area of injury.

Objective:To explore the risk factors for mortality in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support.Methods:Clinical data of 109 patients with severe PARDS supported by ECMO, who were hospitalized in 6 ECMO centers in China from September 2012 to February 2020, were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into survival group and death group according to the prognosis. Chi-square test and rank sum test were used to compare the variables between the two groups, including the demographic data, laboratory examination results, clinical data before and after ECMO, and other supportive treatment. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression models were used to analyze the prognostic risk factors.Results:In these 109 cases, 54 died and 55 survived. Compared with the survival group, the death group had higher incidences of acute kidney injury (AKI) (48.1% (26/54) vs. 21.8% (12/55) , χ2=8.318, P=0.004) and coagulation dysfunction (22.2% (12/54) vs. 7.3% (4/55) , χ2=4.862, P=0.027), and higher rate of renal replacement therapy (48.1% (26/54) vs. 21.8% (12/55) , χ2=9.694, P=0.008) during ECMO support. Logistic regression analysis showed that continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and AKI were independent risk factors for death in patients with severe PARDS requiring ECMO support ( HR=3.88,95% CI 1.04-14.52, HR=4.84,95% CI 1.21-19.46, both P<0.05). Conclusion:AKI and CRRT are independent risk factors for predicting mortality in patients with severe PARDS requiring ECMO support.

Objective To study the therapeutic effects of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) on temporomandibular joint disorders (TMDs).Methods Sixty patients with a temporomandibular joint disorder were randomly divided into an ESWT group and a control group,each of 30.Both groups were given routine rehabilitation training,but the treatment group additionally received ESWT for 2 weeks.Fricton's index was used to evaluate temporomandibular joint function.The subjects used a visual analogue scale (VAS) to evaluate their pain levels.The SF-36 scale was applied to assess their life quality.Results After two weeks of treatment,the average assessment score and VAS score had decreased significantly in both groups.After treatment the average scores for mandibular movement,muscle palpation,joint noise and joint palpation,and the palpation,dysfunction and craniomandibular indexes were all significantly lower in the ESWT group than in the control group.Significant differences were also found in the average VAS scores and on the social functioning domain of the SF-36 between the ESWT group and the control group.Conclusion ESWT combined with rehabilitation training can significantly relieve the symptoms and pain of TMDs.
