Objective To investigate the sleep status in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and its relationship with executive function and neurodevelopment. Methods The medical records of 346 children with ASD in the hospital from April 2023 to January 2025 were retrospectively collected. The sleep status of children was investigated by Children’ s Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ). According to the score, the children were divided into good sleep group (CSHQ score<41 points, 189 cases) and sleep disorder group (CSHQ score≥41 points, 157 cases). The general data were compared between groups of children. Chinese version of Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Preschool Version (BRIEF-P) and developmental behavior assessment scale of children aged 0-6 years (Children's psychological scale-II) were used to analyze the relationship between sleep status and executive function and neurodevelopment in children with ASD. Results The CSHQ score of 346 children was (39.08±3.24) points, including 157 cases with CSHQ score≥41 points and 189 cases with CSHQ score<41 points. The proportion of severe previous medical history and executive function score in sleep disorder group were significantly higher than those in good sleep group, and the evaluation result of developmental quotient was lower than that in good sleep group (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that executive ability and neurodevelopment were closely related to sleep status in children with ASD (P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that sleep status in children with ASD was negatively correlated with executive function (r=-0.456, P<0.05), and was positively correlated with the developmental quotient (r=0.547, P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence rate of sleep disorder is high in children with ASD, and sleep status is closely related to executive function and neurodevelopment. Clinically, it is necessary to pay attention to the sleep problems in children with ASD, and take effective intervention measures to improve the sleep quality of children and promote the training of executive function and neurodevelopment.

Dry eye （DE） is a prevalent multifactorial disease of the ocular surface， clinically characterized by tear film homeostasis imbalance accompanied by related ocular surface symptoms. Specifically， the tear film is a thin liquid layer of tears covering the cornea and conjunctiva through blinking， while tear film homeostasis serves as the foundation for maintaining normal ocular surface structure and function. Insufficient tear secretion and excessive tear film evaporation lead to tear hyperosmolarity and the production of inflammatory mediators， disrupting tear film homeostasis and subsequently forming DE. Additionally， cascade reactions are triggered， resulting in a "vicious cycle of DE" that exacerbates the disease severity and prolongs its duration. Therefore， for DE treatment， it is crucial to restore tear film homeostasis and terminate this vicious cycle. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， which differentiates and treats DE based on systemic conditions， often achieves favorable therapeutic outcomes， offering additional treatment options for DE. Studies have demonstrated that TCM can alleviate DE by regulating tear film homeostasis and terminating the vicious cycle. This review systematically summarizes recent basic experimental research in China and abroad on TCM in alleviating DE by regulating tear film homeostasis， aiming to provide a theoretical basis for clinical treatment and an insight for research design.

To thoroughly implement the strategic deployment outlined in the Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting the Inheritance and Innovative Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine regarding research on dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine and to uphold the development philosophy of equal emphasis on traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine，the China Association of Chinese Medicine has fully played a leading academic role by systematically organizing and conducting a series of academic youth salons on clinical dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine. On September 13，2024，the 36^th Youth Salon on Clinical Dominant Diseases was successfully held in Nanjing，focusing on the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine and the integrative traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of erectile dysfunction （ED）. The conference brought together leading experts from traditional Chinese medicine，western medicine，and interdisciplinary fields，facilitating in-depth multidisciplinary discussions that led to key consensus on optimizing traditional Chinese medicine treatment protocols for ED，researching and developing new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine，and advancing interdisciplinary development in traditional Chinese medicine. This salon systematically sorted out the clinical strengths and distinctive features of traditional Chinese medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of ED. Based on current research foundations and clinical needs，it identified key directions for future scientific layout and scientific research tackling： （1） Standardization of syndrome differentiation system of traditional Chinese medicine for ED. （2） Optimization and standardization of intervention methods of integrated traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine. （3） High-quality clinical research guided by evidence-based medicine. （4） In-depth analysis of the pharmacological mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of ED. （5） Clinical translation and application promotion of new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine. （6） Interdisciplinary integration and innovation in traditional Chinese medicine. For each research direction，key focus areas，expected objectives，and clinical value were further refined，along with the establishment of a scientifically sound priority funding level evaluation system. Therefore，building on the series of salons on the ED-focused dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine，this paper provides standardized guidance for clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine in ED management，effectively contributing to the high-quality development of traditional Chinese medicine. It serves as a valuable reference for national scientific and technological strategic layout， research and development decision-making in new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine，research topic planning，and clinical guideline formulation.

ObjectiveSpinal cord injury (SCI) directly impairs the regulatory function of the autonomic nervous system, induces intestinal dysfunction, and significantly reduces patients’ quality of life. Preclinical studies have shown that electroacupuncture (EA) therapy can regulate the brain-gut axis and is used to treat central nervous system diseases such as major depressive disorder, Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. Recent research has established that fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) from EA-treated SCI rats restored intestinal motility and colonic morphology. However, it remains unclear whether the regulation of gut microbiota by EA therapy directly contributes to neural repair after SCI. This study aims to explore whether gut microbiota mediates the neuroprotective effect of EA in the treatment of SCI and its possible mechanism. MethodsThe study employed RNA transcriptome analysis of spinal cord tissue to characterize gene expression profiles and to identify key signaling pathways following EA treatment for SCI. Hematoxylin-Eosin (HE) staining and Nissl staining were used to observe the morphological changes in spinal cord tissue. Western blot (WB) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were applied to detect the effects of EA on the expression of proteins related to nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain-containing receptor 3 (NLRP3) -dependent pyroptosis. Using 16S rDNA sequencing, the study observed alterations in gut microbiota diversity and community composition in SCI rats. Prior to establishing SCI models, rats were pretreated with an antibiotic cocktail to induce gut dysbiosis, and the effects on intestinal function and spinal cord neural repair were evaluated. FMT was performed to investigate the regulatory effects of post-EA FMT on motor function, general status, liver and spleen indices, and NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis in SCI rats. ResultsEA improved motor function and reduced regulated neuronal cell death in SCI rats. Transcriptomic analysis demonstrated the activation of immune- and inflammation-related pathways post-SCI, including NOD-like receptors, nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB), and Toll-like receptor (TLR) pathways. EA primarily influenced intestinal inflammation and autoimmune functions. 16S rDNA sequencing illustrated that EA did not alter the diversity of gut microbiota. However, EA altered the gut microbiota composition in SCI rats, increasing Lactobacillus and Akkermansia genera while rebalancing the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio. Furthermore, depletion of gut microbiota by antibiotics disrupted the intestinal barrier, reduced the expression of intestinal barrier proteins Zonula Occludens-1 (ZO-1) and Occludin, elevated serum lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) levels, exacerbated spinal cord tissue damage, and hindered motor function recovery in SCI rats. FMT from donors treated with EA reduced LBP levels in the intestine, blood, and spinal cord of rats, inhibited the TLR4 myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 (MyD88)-NF‑κB pathway and NLRP3-dependent pyroptosis, and improved motor function. On the other hand, FMT treatment resulted in decreased body weight and food intake, whereas FMT using EA-treated donors effectively alleviated these alterations. ConclusionEA effectively alleviated neuroinflammatory responses in rats with SCI, primarily through regulating the gut microbiota and suppressing the NLRP3-dependent pyroptosis signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo investigate the molecular mechanisms by which Wenyang Jiedu granules （WYJD） alleviate influenza A virus （IAV）-induced pneumonia based on single-cell transcriptome sequencing. MethodsThirty female BALB/c mice were randomly divided into a blank control group （Control）， IAV group， and WYJD low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （WYJD-L， WYJD-M， WYJD-H； 2.925， 5.85， 11.7 g·kg^-1， n=6）. Except for the Control group， all other groups were intranasally inoculated with IAV subtype H1N1 （A/PR/8/34） to establish an infection model. Two hours after modeling， drug administration was initiated and continued for 5 consecutive days， with daily monitoring of body weight and general condition. On day 6， mice were sacrificed and samples were collected. Lung index was calculated， and histopathological examination of lung tissue was performed. Lung tissues from the Control， IAV， and WYJD-H groups were subjected to single-cell transcriptome sequencing （n=3）， focusing on type I alveolar epithelial cells （AT1） to analyze changes in gene expression and signaling pathways. Western blot was used to detect the expression changes of relevant proteins to validate the single-cell sequencing results. ResultsCompared with the Control group， the IAV group exhibited significantly decreased body weight （P<0.05） and significantly increased lung index （P<0.05）. Compared with the IAV group， all WYJD-treated groups exhibited significantly increased body weight （P<0.01） and significantly decreased lung index （P<0.01）. Single-cell sequencing analysis revealed that WYJD inhibited overactivation of interferon and inflammatory signaling pathways in AT1 cells after IAV infection， including interferon-γ response， interferon-α response， tumor necrosis factor-α/nuclear factor-κB （TNF-α/NF-κB）， and interleukin-6/Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （IL-6/JAK/STAT3） pathways. Compared with the Control group， the number of AT1 cells in the IAV group showed a decreasing trend. Compared with the IAV group， the WYJD-H group showed an increasing trend， although neither difference was statistically significant. Further analysis of AT1 cell subpopulation gene expression showed that， compared with the Control group， the IAV group exhibited increased expression of pro-apoptotic genes FAS cell surface death receptor （FAS） and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A （CDKN1A）， a significant increase in tumor protein p53 （Tp53） expression （P<0.05）， and significant decreases in expression of the AT1 marker gene advanced glycosylation end-product-specific receptor （AGER） and membrane structural gene caveolin1 （CAV1） （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the IAV group， the WYJD-H group showed significantly decreased expression of FAS， CDKN1A， and Tp53 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and significantly increased expression of AGER and CAV1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Regarding interferon response-related genes， compared with the Control group， the IAV group showed increased expression of interferon-stimulated gene 15 （ISG15）， interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 3 （IFIT3）， signal transducer and activator of transcription 2 （STAT2）， bone marrow stromal cell antigen 2 （BST2）， and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 10 （CXCL10）， with a significant increase in 2′，5′-oligoadenylate synthetase-like protein 1 （OASL1） （P<0.05）. Compared with the IAV group， the WYJD-H group showed significantly decreased expression of all the above genes， with highly significant differences for ISG15， IFIT3， STAT2， BST2， and OASL1 （P<0.01）， and a significant difference for CXCL10 （P<0.05）. Among inflammation-related genes， compared with the Control group， the IAV group showed significantly increased expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 （ICAM1）， tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 3 （TNFAIP3）， keratin 8 （KRT8）， tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 1A （TNFRSF1A）， and TNFRSF1B （P<0.01）， and increased expression of NFKBIA， a negative regulator of NF-κB （P<0.05）. Compared with the IAV group， the WYJD-H group showed significantly decreased expression of KRT8 and TNFRSF1B （P<0.05）， while ICAM1， NFKBIA， TNFAIP3， and TNFRSF1A showed decreasing trends without statistical significance. Western blot validation showed that， compared with the Control group， protein expression levels of ISG15， FAS， p53， and phosphorylated p65 （p-p65） in lung tissue of the IAV group were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the IAV group， the WYJD-H group showed significantly decreased expression of these proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionWYJD may alleviate viral pneumonia by targeting gene expression in AT1 cells， inhibiting overactivated interferon and inflammatory signaling pathways after IAV infection， and downregulating pro-apoptotic signaling， thereby reducing alveolar epithelial injury.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects and mechanism of the modified Danggui Yinzi on "itch-anxiety" model rats of chronic urticaria （CU）. MethodsThe 36 SPF-grade 6-8-week-old female SD rats were randomly divided into a blank control group，a model group，a positive control group，a low-dose modified Danggui Yinzi group，a medium-dose modified Danggui Yinzi group，and a high-dose modified Danggui Yinzi group. A "itch-anxiety" model was established by intraperitoneal injection of a suspension of sodium chloride and aluminum hydroxide and ovalbumin，combined with chronic unpredictable emotional stress stimulation. After successful modeling，rats in each group were administered drugs by gavage. The positive control group was given intragastric administration of the drug solutions of cetirizine and fluoxetine （2.08 mg·kg^-1·d^-1 fluoxetine， 2 mg·kg^-1·d^-1 cetirizine）， the low-，medium-，and high-dose modified Danggui Yinzi groups were administered traditional Chinese medicine at 1.44，2.88， 5.76 g·kg^-1， respectively，while the blank control group and model group were given an equal volume of normal saline. All interventions lasted for 15 days. Behavioral changes were evaluated by the elevated plus-maze test （detecting the percentage of entries into the open arms （OE%），the percentage of time spent in the open arms （OT%），and the total number of entries into the open and closed arms （TNE）），the open-field test （detecting total activity，average movement speed，and latency to enter the central area），and scratching behavior observation. Pathological changes of skin tissues were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and toluidine blue staining，while those of amygdala tissues were observed by HE staining，Nissl staining，and immunofluorescence detection of ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule-1 （Iba-1）. The content of immunoglobulin E （IgE），interleukin-33 （IL-33），histamine in serum and glutamate in the amygdala was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of striatal-enriched protein tyrosine phosphatase （STEP），N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subunit 2B （NR2B）， calmodulin-dependent protein kinase Ⅱ （CaMKⅡ），phosphorylated CaMKⅡ （p-CaMKⅡ），mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK），phosphorylated MAPK （p-MAPK），nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells （NF-κB），phosphorylated NF-κB （p-NF-κB），and postsynaptic density protein-95 （PSD-95） in the amygdala. ResultsCompared with the blank control group，the model group rats showed obvious anxiety-like behaviors （decreased OE%，OT%，and TNE，reduced total activity，slower average movement speed，and prolonged latency to enter the central area），increased scratching times，obvious skin inflammation and mast cell degranulation，severe amygdala tissue damage，increased glutamate content in the amygdala，and elevated levels of IgE and IL-33 in serum. The expression of STEP，NF-κB，p-NF-κB，NR2B，MAPK，p-MAPK，CaMKⅡ，and p-CaMKⅡ proteins in the amygdala increased，while the expression of PSD-95 protein decreased （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group，the modified Danggui Yinzi group of each dose had increased OE%，OT%，TNE，total activity，and average movement speed，shortened latency to enter the central area， reduced scratching times，alleviated skin inflammation and mast cell degranulation，relieved amygdala tissue damage，decreased glutamate content in the amygdala，and reduced levels of IgE and IL-33 in serum. Moreover，compared with the model group，the low -，medium-，and high-dose modified Danggui Yinzi groups showed decreased expression levels of STEP，NF-κB，p-NF-κB，NR2B，MAPK，p-MAPK，CaMKⅡ，and p-CaMKⅡ proteins in the amygdala，and increased expression of PSD-95 protein. There was a significant dose-effect relationship，with the high-dose group showing the most significant regulatory effect （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe modified Danggui Yinzi has a therapeutic effect on "itch-anxiety" model rats of CU. Its mechanism may be related to regulating glutamate metabolism in the amygdala，modulating the STEP/NR2B/CaMKⅡ/MAPK/NF-κB pathway，and regulating the expression of PSD-95.

ObjectiveThis paper aims to observe the syndrome improvement and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome）. MethodsThrough a multi-center randomized controlled methodology design，confirmed influenza cases were collected from October 2022 to April 2023 in the pediatrics department of eight hospitals，such as Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. A total of 180 children with influenza and heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome conforming to the standard were recruited through the clinic. The sick children meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into groups by a block-randomized method. The children in the experimental group were treated with Qingxuan Daozhi formula for five days，and those in the control group were treated with Oseltamivir Phosphate Granules for five days. The primary efficacy indicator was the negative conversion rate of influenza antigen detection. Secondary efficacy indicators were the Canadian acute respiratory illness and flu scale （CARIFS） and the incidence of complications，severe cases， and critical cases. Follow-up observation was conducted on the day of enrollment，48 hours after medication，72 hours after medication， and （6+1） d after medication. ResultsOne hundred and eighty participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group （90 cases） or the control group （90 cases）. All participants were followed up during the study. Comparison of influenza antigen detection results in the primary efficacy indicators showed that the average time of negative influenza antigen conversion in the experimental group was （5.29±1.25） d，and that in the control group was （5.40±1.68） d，without a statistically significant difference. After five days of intervention，52 cases in the experimental group and 51 cases in the control group converted to negative，without a statistically significant difference. CARIFS score results in the secondary efficacy indicators showed that during 72 hours after intervention，there were statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in three dimensions， including headache，muscle soreness， and the need for extra care （P<0.05）. On the （6+1） days after the intervention，the differences in both the experimental group and the control group were statistically significant in 10 dimensions， including sore throat，bad sleep，uncomfortable feeling，poor spirit and fatigue，crying more than usual，the need for extra care，symptom，function，influence on parents，and total score （P<0.05）. The comparison results within the group in the dimensional scores of symptom， function， and influence on parents，as well as the CARIFS total score showed that with the delay of follow-up time，scores of both groups decreased significantly，with a statistically significant difference （P<0.01）. Inter-group comparison results showed that the mean score of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group at the time of enrollment. With the progress of intervention，the score of the experimental group was significantly decreased compared with that of the control group. At the end of follow-up，the mean score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group，with no statistically significant difference. In terms of the incidence of complications，severe cases， and critical cases， there were no complications，severe cases， and critical cases in the two groups，without a statistically significant difference. ConclusionThe symptom improvement effect and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome） are not inferior to Oseltamivir Phosphate granules， and children's acceptance is better. It can be more widely used in clinical treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome）.

Objective To examine the association between epidemiological characteristics of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and meteorological factors in Shenzhen City during the period from 2012 to 2019. Methods Average atmospheric pressure, average air temperature, average relative humidity, precipitation, wind speed, and sunshine duration were captured from Meteorological Bureau of Shenzhen City each month from 2012 to 2019. The average monthly rodent densities in Shenzhen City from 2012 to 2019 were acquired from the Vector Surveillance Management System of Guangdong Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and the monthly HFRS incidence was retrieved from Shenzhen Municipal Disease Surveillance System from 2012 to 2019. The correlation between meteorological factors and the monthly incidence of HFRS was examined us ing Spearman’s rank correlation in Shenzhen City, and the temporal trends in monthly HFRS incidence and the degrees of freedom for the rodent density were determined in Shenzhen City with a generalized additive model. The optimal lag time was identified using excess risk (ER) and its 95% confidence interval (CI), and univariate and multivariate models were fitted to evaluate the impact of meteorological factors on HFRS incidence in Shenzhen City. Results The median number of incident HFRS cases was 3.00 (interquartile range, 3.25) in Shenzhen City from 2012 to 2019, with an average air temperature of (23.44 ± 4.91) °C, average relative humidity of (76.05 ± 7.61)%, median precipitation of 4.10 (interquartile range, 6.83) mm, average wind speed of (1.97 ± 0.26) m/s, average sunshine duration of (5.17 ± 1.64) h, and median monthly rodent density of 1.74% (interquartile range, 2.52%). Spearman’s rank correlation analysis showed that the average air temperature positively correlated with average relative humidity (r_s = 0.420, P < 0.05), precipitation (r_s = 0.658, P < 0.05) and sunshine duration (r_s = 0.633, P < 0.05), and the atmospheric pressure negatively correlated with average air temperature (r_s = −0.925, P < 0.05), relative humidity (r_s = −0.614, P < 0.05), precipitation (r_s = −0.789, P < 0.05) and sunshine duration (r_s = −0.437, P < 0.05), while the average relative humidity correlated positively with precipitation (r_s = 0.724, P < 0.05) and negatively with sunshine duration (r_s = −0.218, P < 0.05). Univariate modeling analysis showed that the ERs and their 95% CI were 0.639% (0.540%, 0.737%) for average atmospheric pressure, −7.157% (−8.113%, −6.190%) for average air temperature, −3.603% (−4.219%, −2.985%) for average relative humidity, −5.889% (−7.085%, −4.669%) forprecipitation,21.881% (−5.149%, 56.612%) for average wind speed, and −13.877% (−16.641%, −11.022%) for sunshine duation (all P values < 0.05). Multivariate modeling analysis showed that in the ensemble model combining average atmospheric pressure and precipitation, the highest ER (6.686%) was caused by increased average atmospheric pressure, and the highest absolute ER values for average air temperature (6.615%), average relative humidity (3.107%) and precipitation (5.386%) were seen after adjustment only for sunshine duration (all P values < 0.05), while the highest absolute ER for sunshine duration (11.875%) was found after adjustment for precipitation (P < 0.05). Conclusions An increase in average air temperature, relative humidity, precipitation and sunshine duration resulted in a reduced incidence rate of HFRS in Shenzhen City from 2012 to 2019, and an increase in average atmospheric pressure increased the incidence of HFRS. Meteorological factors are important determinants affecting HFRS incidence in Shenzhen City.
