This paper summarizes the clinical experience in the syndrome differentiation and treatment of rosacea using the method of venting heat and resolving stagnation. It is considered that the key pathogenesis of rosacea is the accumulation of heat with stagnation. Accordingly， the method of venting heat and resolving stagnation is proposed， which vents and disperses constraint heat by applying approaches such as dredging defensive qi， clearing qi， venting ying （营） level， and cooling blood， while eliminating stagnation and masses through regulating qi， resolving dampness， dispelling phlegm and removing stasis. In clinical practice， a core prescription for venting heat and resolving stagnation is formulated， with flexible modifications made according to the clinical characteristics of different rosacea subtypes， including erythematotelangiectatic， papulopustular， phymatous， and ocular types， thereby providing therapeutic insights for the treatment of rosacea with traditional Chinese medicine.

This paper summarizes professor ZHOU Zhongying's clinical experience in differentiating and treating miscellaneous internal diseases using Erjia Longgu Decoction （二加龙骨汤）. It is proposed that Erjia Longgu Decoction exerts the effects of clearing the upper and warming the lower， nourishing yin and suppressing yang， and harmonizing yin and yang， applicable for miscellaneous internal diseases characterized by the core pathogenesis of insufficient ying-yin （营阴） and floating deficient yang. In clinical practice， treatment is tailored according to individual patient conditions， with emphasis placed on gentle and flexible medication use. Erjia Longgu Decoction is used as the foundational formula with appropriate modifications， and has been widely applied in the management of miscellaneous internal diseases， such as dizziness， palpitations， insomnia， nocturnal emission， cold intolerance， and sweating disorders， offering new perspectives for the expanded application of classical formulas.

ObjectiveTo analyze the current status of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） prediction model research for emerging acute infectious diseases， in order to provide reference for subsequent model construction and optimization. MethodsEight databases， including PubMed， Cochrane Library， and Embase， were systematically searched to comprehensively collect Chinese and English literature on TCM prediction models for emerging acute infectious diseases. The search period ranged from database inception to July 5， 2024. Reporting quality compliance was evaluated using the Transparent Reporting of a Multivariable Prediction Model for Individual Prognosis or Diagnosis—Traditional Chinese Medicine （TRIPOD-TCM） guideline. Risk of bias and applicability were assessed using the Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool （PROBAST）. ResultsA total of 21 studies were included， comprising 11 early warning model studies， 5 diagnostic model studies， 3 prognostic model studies， and 2 prescription prediction model studies， involving 84 models in total. The diseases involved were mainly viral infectious diseases such as coronavirus disease 2019 （COVID-19） and hepatitis B. The most frequently applied TCM theory was the "five movements and six climates" theory. The most commonly used modeling method was neural network-based approaches. The most frequently reported predictive factors were meteorological variables， including daily mean temperature， wind speed， precipitation， relative humidity， and vapor pressure. In terms of reporting quality， the included studies showed poor item-level compliance， with only 13 sub-items achieving compliance rates above 50%. Overall compliance ranged from 27% to 59% across studies. Although the included studies showed relatively good applicability， all were assessed as having a high risk of bias. The main sources of bias included inappropriate handling of missing data， absence of calibration methods， and unreasonable validation strategies， indicating deficiencies across multiple stages of model development. ConclusionCurrent research on TCM prediction models for emerging acute infectious diseases exhibits distinctive modeling characteristics. These models are based on traditional TCM theories such as the "five movements and six climates"， incorporate TCM-specific features as predictive variables， and use TCM syndromes as outcomes. However， they generally suffer from low reporting compliance and a high risk of bias. Future studies should systematically design model development and validation processes， adhere to TRIPOD-TCM reporting standards， and apply PROBAST or develop dedicated bias risk assessment tools for TCM prediction models to improve methodological quality and promote their translation into clinical practice.

ObjectiveTo explore the data standard system of electronic medical records in the field of rehabilitation, focusing on the terminology and coding standards, data structure, and key content categories of rehabilitation electronic medical records. MethodsBased on the Administrative Norms for the Application of Electronic Medical Records issued by the National Health Commission of China, the electronic medical record standard architecture issued by the International Organization for Standardization and Health Level Seven (HL7), the framework of the World Health Organization Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs), Basic Architecture and Data Standards of Electronic Medical Records, Basic Data Set of Electronic Medical Records, and Specifications for Sharing Documents of Electronic Medical Records, the study constructed and organized the data structure, content, and data standards of rehabilitation electronic medical records. ResultsThe data structure of rehabilitation electronic medical records should strictly follow the structure of electronic medical records, including four levels (clinical document, document section, data set and data element) and four major content areas (basic information, diagnostic information, intervention information and cost information). Rehabilitation electronic medical records further integrated information related to rehabilitation needs and characteristics, emphasizing rehabilitation treatment, into clinical information. By fully applying the WHO-FICs reference classifications, rehabilitation electronic medical records could establish a standardized framework, diagnostic criteria, functional description tools, coding tools and terminology index tools for the coding, indexing, functional description, and analysis and interpretation of diseases and health problems. The study elaborated on the data structure and content categories of rehabilitation electronic medical records in four major categories, refined the granularity of reporting rehabilitation content in electronic medical records, and provided detailed data reporting guidance for rehabilitation electronic medical records. ConclusionThe standardization of rehabilitation electronic medical records is significant for improving the quality of rehabilitation medical services and promoting the rehabilitation process of patients. The development of rehabilitation electronic medical records must be based on the national and international standards. Under the general electronic medical records data structure and standards, a rehabilitation electronic medical records data system should be constructed which incorporates core data such as disease diagnosis, functional description and assessment, and rehabilitation interventions. The standardized rehabilitation electronic medical records scheme constructed in this study can support the improvement of standardization of rehabilitation electronic medical records data information.

American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius L.), a widely used herbal medicine and dietary supplement, has attracted increasing attention from both academia and industry in recent years. To better understand the research frontiers and hotspots, we conducted a bibliometric analysis of American ginseng studies indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection from 1985 to 2024, using CiteSpace and VOSviewer. A total of 1169 publications were identified, with a marked increase in output since 2011. Hotspot analysis revealed growing interest in pharmacological effects, ginsenoside analysis, polysaccharide studies, and quality control. Furthermore, we assessed future research trends, suggesting that quality control and the modulation of gut microbiota will remain central topics. This study provides a clearer understanding of the evolving research landscape on American ginseng and offers guidance for future investigations.

The major components of Olaflur raw material were characterized using ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight-mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF/MS).The results revealed that cetyl amine fluoride(C16-AmF),octadecene amine fluoride(C18:1-AmF),and octadecyl amine fluoride(Olaflur)were the main components.The contents of C16-AmF,C18:1-AmF,and Olaflur in oral care products were determined via ultra performance liquid chromatography-charged aerosol detector coupled with solid-phase extraction(SPE-UPLC-CAD).The oral care sample was dispersed evenly with a 50%ethanol aqueous solution,and then vortexed with ethanol.The supernatant was collected by centrifugation,concentrated to near dryness,and redissolved with ultrapure water.The re-dissolved sample was loaded onto a Poly-Sery HLB Pro SPE column for purification and elution.The acetonitrile eluate was collected and concentrated to 1.0 mL.Finally,a prepared test solution was separated on a Thermo Acclaim Surfactant Plus chromatographic column(2.1 mm×150 mm,3 μm).Acetonitrile and 100 mmol/L acetic acid-ammonium acetate aqueous solution(pH=4.8)were used as the mobile phases for gradient elution.The flow rate was 0.3 mL/min and cloumn temperature was maintained at 40℃.The sample was detected using a charged aerosol detector,and quantified using an external standard method.The experimental results indicated that the three organic fluorinated amines showed good linear relationship in their respective concentration ranges.The correlation coefficients(r)were greater than 0.99.The limit of detection(LOD)and the limit of quantification(LOQ)of C16-AmF were 2.0 and 8.0 μg/mL,respectively.The LOD and LOQ of C18:1-AmF were 2.0 and 8.0 μg/mL,respectively.The LOD and LOQ of Olaflur were 3.0 μg/mL and 10.0 μg/mL,respectively.The spiked recoveries of the three organic fluorinated amines were 84.3%-104.2%,with relative standard deviations(RSDs)of 4.93%-5.82%.The 28 batches of commercial oral care samples were detected by this method and the results indicated that three organic fluorinated amines were detected in 18 samples and the total content were 22.2-11477.8 μg/g.This method had high sensitivity and good reproducibility.It was suitable for verifying the authenticity of the claims of oral care products promoted with Olaflur as the main efficacy ingredient and selling point,and provided a valuable reference for establishing and improving the standard analytical method for Olaflur.

Objective To verify the efficacy of a domestic human DNA quantification kit based on real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR in detecting the total human DNA concentration,male DNA concen-tration in mixed male/female DNA samples,the degree of DNA degradation and inhibitor tolerance.Methods Samples with different concentrations,different male/female ratios,different concentrations of inhibitors,and different degradation degrees were tested using the domestic human DNA quantification kit based on real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.This kit was compared with a similar product on the market and was applied to the detection of DNA from real cases.Results This human DNA quan-tification kit can effectively detect human DNA as low as 0.001 65 ng/μL,and 6.25 pg/μL of male DNA in mixed samples with a male-to-female ratio of 1∶15 000.Even when the sample contains as high as 400 ng/μL of humic acid or 1 000 μmol/L of hemin alone,the DNA concentration can still be accurately detected.The degradation index can effectively characterize the degradation degree of the sample.This kit has been successfully applied in forensic practice.Conclusion This human DNA quan-tification kit is accurate and reliable in detection.It can accurately reflect the degradation of DNA and inhibitor tolerance.It has good performance in quantitative accuracy,determination of the male/female ratio in mixed samples,and inhibitor tolerance.It has application potential in forensic case examination.

Objective:To analyze the effect of carbapenem antibiotics on the blood concentration of valproate(VPA)in elderly patients with epilepsy, while also exploring the potential drug interactions between carbapenem antibiotics and VPA, as well as possible solutions.Methods:This retrospective study included patients aged 80 years and older who were treated with a combination of VPA and carbapenem antibiotics in the Department of Geriatrics at Beijing Hospital from January 2017 to December 2022, as well as older hospitalized patients with epilepsy.Data collected encompassed patients' demographic information, details related to epilepsy, information on infection medications, changes in VPA blood concentration, clinical management, and clinical outcomes.Results:A total of 12 patients were included in the study.The average age of the participants was 92±7.0 years.The baseline dosage of VPA was 1 000 mg(range: 650 to 1 250 mg), and the baseline VPA serum concentration was 56.59 mg/L(range: 38.00 to 61.73 mg/L)during treatment with carbapenem antibiotics.Nine patients experienced seizure recurrence during the combination therapy, representing 75% of the total cohort.The VPA dosage was increased in 10 patients, with a mean increase of 522 mg(range: 200 to 892 mg), and the duration of this dosage increase was 8 days(range: 7 to 9 days).All patients exhibited a decrease in VPA serum concentration, with the lowest concentration decreasing by an average of 71.9%±15.69%.The VPA serum concentration during carbapenem treatment was significantly lower than both the baseline and post-withdrawal concentrations, measuring 12.30 mg/L(range: 10.49 to 22.47 mg/L)compared to 56.59 mg/L(range: 38.00 to 61.73 mg/L)( Z=-3.059, P=0.002)and 43.74 mg/L(range: 41.48 to 73.14 mg/L)( Z=-2.803, P=0.005). Conclusions:Carbapenems can markedly decrease serum concentrations of VPA and heighten the incidence of seizures in elderly patients with epilepsy.Increasing the dose of VPA may not enhance its serum concentration; therefore, we recommend avoiding the concomitant use of VPA and carbapenems.

Objective:To explore the potential role of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) and components of metabolic syndrome (MS) in the early progression of carotid arteriosclerosis.Methods:The study was a cross-sectional study. Urban participants undergoing routine health check-ups were enrolled from all 11 prefecture-level cities in Zhejiang Province between January and December 2022. General clinical information was obtained through interviews, and data on MS was collected from the clinical health examinations. Serum Lp-PLA? levels were measured in all participants. All participants were divided into 3 groups according to the results of the carotid ultrasound: the normal group, the intima thickening group with carotid intima thickening change and the plaque group. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to evaluate the associations of Lp-PLA2, MS, and the components of MS with early carotid atherosclerosis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were performed to assess the diagnostic performance of combining Lp-PLA2 with MS and the cumulative number of MS components for early carotid atherosclerosis.Results:A total of 4 009 urban adults undergoing routine health check-ups were enrolled (mean age (48.9±8.46) years, 2 665(66.5 %)male). Of these, 1 398 were in the normal group, 1 650 in the intima thickening group, and 961 in the plaque group. Multivariable logistic regression demonstrated that Lp-PLA2 was independently associated with early carotid atherosclerosis ( OR=1.34, 95% CI: 1.11-1.63, P=0.003). Lp-PLA2 also showed independent positive associations with both carotid intima thickening and carotid plaque formation, with the latter being more pronounced (both P<0.05). MS was independently and positively associated with early carotid atherosclerosis ( OR=1.48, 95 % CI: 1.20-1.84, P<0.001), as well as with intima thickening and carotid plaque formation, with the association being stronger for the latter (both P<0.05). Furthermore, the strength of the association increased progressively with the number of MS components ( P<0.001), especially for carotid plaques formation (both P<0.001). Multivariable logistic regression revealed that, compared with individuals without MS and low Lp-PLA2 levels, the risk of early carotid atherosclerosis was increased in those with high Lp-PLA2 alone, MS alone, or both conditions concurrently, with the highest risk observed when both were present (all P<0.05). ROC analyses demonstrated that the combination of elevated Lp-PLA2 with 3, 4, or 5 MS components yielded good diagnostic performance for early carotid atherosclerosis ( AUC=0.869, 0.888, and 0.889, respectively), intima thickening ( AUC=0.844, 0.860, and 0.845, respectively), and carotid plaque formation ( AUC=0.899, 0.924, and 0.968, respectively) in urban health-screening participants. Conclusions:Lp-PLA2, MS, and the number of MS components were independently and positively associated with early carotid atherosclerosis in urban health chek-up populations. The combination of MS components and Lp-PLA2 provided favorable diagnostic performance for the detection of early carotid atherosclerosis.

Objective:To investigate the management options for loop plate cutting of the tibial cortex during reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) by the all-inside technique.Methods:From January 2022 to December 2024, a total of 13 patients with ACL injury who underwent all-inside reconstruction with tibial lateral loop plate cutting of the cortex and immediate revision for ACL injuries at Department of Sports Medicine, the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China were retrospectively analyzed (cut group). There were 5 males and 8 females with an average age of 28.7±9.1 years (range, 17-39 years). During the revision, a transverse tunnel was drilled at the distal end of the tibial tunnel, and the loop plate was fixed to the lateral tibial cortex through the transverse tunnel. Matched by gender, age, and side, the patients who underwent ACL reconstruction with all-inside loop steel without cutting the tibial cortex during the same period (the uncut group) were selected as the control group at a ratio of 1∶2, including 10 males and 16 females, aged 29.1±9.3 years (range, 17-39 years). The visual analogue scale (VAS), Tegner score, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Lysholm score for knee pain before and after surgery were compared between the two groups, and bone tunnel enlargement was assessed using the Peyrache grading scale.Results:All patients were successfully operated and followed up for 13.1±2.5 months and 13.3±2.6 months, respectively. The Lysholm scores of the cutting group before surgery, 6 months after surgery, and 1 year after surgery were 35.44±15.69, 75.21±16.77, and 93.47±18.56 respectively, while those of the uncut group were 37.81±17.33, 71.45±15.82, and 91.05±19.54. The Lysholm scores of both groups 6 months and 1 year after surgery were higher than those before surgery, and the Lysholm scores 1 year after surgery were higher than those 6 months after surgery, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the Lysholm scores between the two groups before and after surgery ( P>0.05). The IKDC scores of the cutting group before surgery, 6 months after surgery, and 1 year after surgery were 39.12±14.28, 69.52±15.36, and 84.24±17.91 respectively, while those of the uncut group were 37.46±11.55, 72.81±17.73, and 87.62±18.52. The IKDC scores of both groups 6 months and 1 year after surgery were higher than those before surgery, and the IKDC scores 1 year after surgery were higher than those 6 months after surgery, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the IKDC scores between the two groups before and after surgery ( P>0.05). The Tegner scores of the cutting group before surgery, 6 months after surgery, and 1 year after surgery were 1.61±1.11, 3.59±1.66, and 5.59±1.79 respectively, while those of the non-cutting group were 1.57±1.05, 3.47±1.51, and 5.41±1.63. The Tegner scores of both groups 6 months and 1 year after surgery were higher than those before surgery, and the Tegner scores 1 year after surgery were higher than those 6 months after surgery, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the Tegner scores between the two groups before and after surgery ( P>0.05). According to Peyrache's grading criteria, 7 cases in the cutting group had femoral side bone tunnel enlargement and 8 cases had tibial side bone tunnel enlargement; 12 cases in the non-cutting group had femoral side bone tunnel enlargement and 15 cases had tibial side bone tunnel enlargement, with no statistically significant differences (χ 2=0.205, P=0.650; χ 2=0.053, P=0.818). At the last follow-up, there were 2 cases of Lachman grade I in the cutting group and 3 cases in the non-cutting group, 1 case of joint stiffness in the cutting group and 2 cases in the non-cutting group. None of the patients in the two groups had vascular nerve injury, deep vein thrombosis, or intra-articular infection. Conclusion:The method of drilling a transverse tunnel at the distal end of the outer opening of the tibial tunnel and fixing the loop plate to the lateral tibial cortex through the transverse tunnel, along with cutting the tibial cortex, can improve the knee joint function.
