IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common primary glomerulonephritis worldwide and a major cause of chronic kidney disease and kidney failure. IgAN exhibits marked heterogeneity in clinical presentation, histopathology, and pathogenic mechanisms, contributing to variable treatment responses and prognosisamong patients. Precise risk assessment and individualized intervention are therefore of critical importance. This review systematically traces the evolution of IgAN management from traditional risk stratification toward biomarker-driven precision medicine. We first review the clinical utility and limitations of established risk stratification tools, including the KDIGO guidelines, the Oxford MEST-C classification, and the International IgAN Prediction Tool. We then discuss emerging biomarkers closely linked to disease pathogenesis, including galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1), anti-Gd-IgA1 autoantibodies, B cell activating factor (BAFF), a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL), and complement components, as well as the targeted therapies they have informed. In addition, urinary biomarkers and multi-omics approaches show promise for dynamic disease monitoring and individualized risk stratification.

Elderly patients with primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) exhibit significant prognostic heterogeneity and poor tolerance to immunotherapy. However, there is a lack of early prognostic prediction tools specifically for this population. This study aimed to develop a prognostic prediction model applicable to elderly PMN patients.

OBJECTIVE To upgrade and perfect the quality standard of Psidii Guajavae Folium. METHODS A total of 24 batches of Psidii Guajavae Folium samples were adopted in this study. The macroscopic traits and powder microscopic features of the medicinal materials were observed， and thin-layer chromatography （TLC） identification was carried out. In accordance with corresponding methods documented in Volume Ⅳ of the 2025 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia， multiple indexes were determined， including foreign matter， moisture， total ash， acid-insoluble ash， water-soluble extractives， heavy metals （lead， cadmium， copper， arsenic， mercury） as well as residues of 47 prohibited pesticides. A high-performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） method was established to quantify guaijaverin in Psidii Guajavae Folium. Meanwhile， the HPLC fingerprint of the herb was constructed， followed by similarity evaluation and cluster analysis of all samples. RESULTS The macroscopic traits of Psidii Guajavae Folium complied with relevant specifications of quality standards. Distinct microscopic characteristics were observed in medicinal powder， including non-glandular hairs， calcium oxalate crystals， vessels and stomata. TLC results revealed identical fluorescent spots at positions corresponding to the guaijaverin reference substance on chromatograms of test samples. Among the 24 batches of samples， the detection ranges were 0.3%-2.8% for foreign matter， 5.1%-10.7% for moisture， 5.3%-7.2% for total ash， 0.4%-1.8% for acid-insoluble ash， and 11.8%-26.3% for water-soluble extractives. The test results of heavy metals， harmful elements and prohibited pesticide residues all satisfied the Chinese Pharmacopoeia limit criteria. Methodological validation of content determination and fingerprint analysis met relevant validation requirements. The guaijaverin content of the 24 batches ranged from 0.14% to 0.28%. The HPLC fingerprint similarity values of all samples fluctuated between 0.828 and 0.997； fifteen common peaks were calibrated， six of which were chemically identified. The 24 batches were divided into two major clusters， and cluster classification showed high consistency with sample origins. CONCLUSIONS This research optimizes the TLC identification protocol of Psidii Guajavae Folium and supplements new quality control items including quantitative assay and chromatographic fingerprint. Tentative quality limits are proposed as follows： moisture ≤12.0%， total ash ≤8.0%， water-soluble extractives ≥10.0%， and guaijaverin content ≥0.14% （calculated based on dry products）.

Since its establishment in 2016, the National Rare Diseases Registry System of China (NRDRS) has accumulated valuable case data and bio-specimen for basic and clinical research on rare diseases in China. However, the emerging challenges in clinical diagnosis and treatment of rare diseases make it unable for data and resource platform to fully meet the diversified needs. Under this backdrop, we have developed a protocol to optimize and upgrade the system based on the core functions of the NRDRS platform. The goal is to leverage intelligent digital technologies to transform NRDRS into a new platform integrating multimodal data and auxiliary diagnostic and treatment functions. It is specified as the development and construction of "one platform and four intelligent tools." Currently, we have upgraded and developed NRDRS platform, intelligent tool for genotype-phenotype analysis of rare diseases, AI-assisted diagnostic tool for rare diseases, remote multidisciplinary diagnosis and teaching tool for rare diseases, drug screening and validation tool for rare diseases. The next step will focus on the promotion of the application of these tools in clinical settings in order to address the issue of severe imbalance in the allocation of resources for the diagnosis and treatment of rare diseases. This article provides an overview of the digital and intelligent upgrades of the NRDRS, the trials in applications in clinical settings, and direction in the future.

Based on the trinity life view of ''physique， Qi， and spirit''， Chaihu Jia Longgu Mulitang treats the patient's physical symptoms， disorders of Qi movement， and disorders of consciousness， covering the overall treatment and comprehensive nursing of physique， Qi， and spirit. It is widely applied and recognized for its efficacy in modern clinical practice. This paper explored the treatment effect of Chaihu Jia Longgu Mulitang from the trinity life view of ''physique， Qi， and spirit''. This formula mainly targeted patients with Qi deficiency caused by cold， leading to a syndrome of Qi stagnation and water retention in the Triple Energizer Meridian of Hand Lesser Yang （TE）， as well as fire-heat syndrome in the Large Intestine Meridian of Hand Yang Brightness （LI） and Stomach Meridian of Foot Yang Brightness （ST）， accompanied by disorder of nutrient-blood and subsequent spirit and soul unrest. Accurately judging the imbalance of the patient's physique， Qi， and spirit and using an appropriate combination of medicinals can achieve balance among the three to achieve the best effect. The treatment strategy of Chaihu Jia Longgu Mulitang is as follows： For disorders of Qi movement， such as Qi deficiency， Qi stagnation， and gastrointestinal fire-heat， Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Bupleuri Radix-Scutellariae Radix， and Rhei Radix et Rhizoma are used in combination. For physical symptoms such as water retention and disorder of nutrient-blood， Poria-Pinelliae Rhizoma-Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens， as well as Cinnamomi Ramulus-Jujubae Fructus are used in combination. Finally， Os Draconis-Ostreae Concha-Plumbum Rubrum is used to calm the spirit and soothe the soul. According to existing research， Chaihu Jia Longgu Mulitang has shown good efficacy in treating a variety of complex clinical diseases. This article provides a comprehensive interpretation of Chaihu Jia Longgu Mulitang from the perspective of the trinity life view of ''physique， Qi， and spirit''， offering new insights for clinical syndrome differentiation， treatment， and prescription.

Objective To analyze the main epidemiological characteristics of fungal infection in this hospital in the past 7 years,and to provide reference for clinical treatment and prevention and control strategies of fun-gal infection.Methods The fungal data and clinical data of related patients isolated from clinical samples in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from early January 2018 to the end of May 2024 were selected,and the main epidemiological characteristics of fungal infection in this hospital were identified and described through multi-angle statistical analysis.Results A total of 4 479 patients with filamentous fungal infection were en-rolled.The proportion of male patients[57.5％(2 576/4 479)]was higher than that of female patients[42.5％(1 903/4 143)],mainly distributed in internal medicine,Intensive Care Unit(ICU)and emergency de-partment,among which internal medicine accounted for the highest proportion[50.0％(2 241/4 479)].About 90.0％of the specimens were from the lower respiratory tract,in addition to specimens from skin and soft tis-sue,tissue,ear and blood culture.In terms of seasonal distribution,there are more patients in winter.The fun-gi were mainly composed of Aspergillus,Mucor,Cerdosporium,Fusarium and Penicillium,among which As-pergillus was the most abundant,accounting for 74.6％of the total.Aspergillus fumigatus was the most a-bundant Aspergillus,accounting for 42.5％of the total Aspergillus(1 418/3 340).Among the related infec-tions caused by mold,Aspergillus was the most common in the lower respiratory tract,accounting for 76.8％.Among them,Aspergillus fumigatus accounted for the highest proportion(33.6％).98.6％of the molds infected the ear were Aspergillus,of which Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus terreus were the most common.Skin infections are mainly caused by Sporothrix schenckii,Trichophyton rubrum,Microsporum ca-nis.The results of in vitro drug sensitivity test showed that the four common Aspergillus isolated in this hos-pital were sensitive to voriconazole,and amphotericin B had better antifungal activity against Mucorales in vitro.Conclusion Based on the main epidemiological characteristics of fungal infections in this hospital,it is recommended that special attention be paid to the admission of patients in the respiratory department during the peak infection period in autumn and winter.In the treatment of fungal infections in different regions and on different body parts,attention should be paid to the differences in the distribution of bacterial species.

Lysine lactylation is a type of histone post-translational modification that is mainly regulated by fac-tors such as lactate level,glycolysis level,and vario us enzymes and proteins.Lysine lactylation involves several physio-pathological activities,including macrophage inflammatory response,somatic cell reprogramming,neuronal activity,and embryonic development,etc.Changes in the level of lactfication modification are involved in the development of neuropsy-chiatric disorders such as Alzheimer disease(AD),schizophrenia(SCZ)and depression.Inflammatory response and ab-normal neuronal activity are one of the important causes of neuropsychiatric diseases.The change of lactfication modifica-tion level participates in the development of AD,SCZ,depression and other neuropsychiatric diseases,which specifically regulate neuronal apoptosis,neuronal excitation,and microglial inflammatory response.

Objective:To analyze the current status, hotspots, and trends of community integration (CI) at home and abroad, providing directions for subsequent research.Methods:The China National Knowledge Infrastructure and the Web of Science Core Collection data were used, and CiteSpace software was employed to analyze the publication, countries, disciplines, and keywords of CI.Results:A total of 932 Chinese and 2 319 English hits were included. The publication of CI had shown an increasing trend both domestically and internationally. Sociology and rehabilitation were the main disciplines in CI domestically and internationally, respectively. Domestically, CI research primarily focused on the community integration of migrant workers, floating populations, and accompanying family members. Internationally, the emphasis was on the integration of individuals with disabilities and other special groups. Future research directions in China were likely to focus on group work, the elderly, and relocated populations. Internationally, CI research would continue to concentrate on CI experiences and intervention methods for individuals with disabilities and special populations.Conclusion:CI is increasingly gaining attention both domestically and internationally. However, domestic research remains insufficient and needs to be expanded through more empirical studies in various vertical subfields. Future domestic scholars should continue to focus on CI of the elderly and engage in interdisciplinary research.
