Ulcerative colitis （UC） is a common digestive disease characterized by recurrence and remission alternation，which seriously affects the life quality and physical and mental health of patients. The pathogenesis of UC is complex，and studies have shown that the occurrence and development of UC are closely related to the transduction of multiple signaling pathways. The current western medicine treatment has many problems，such as single action target，more adverse reactions，poor patient tolerance，and easy recurrence after stopping the medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine has the advantages such as multi-targets，multi-pathways， and fewer adverse reactions， elucidating that the action mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of UC is the focus of current research. Therefore， this paper conducted a systematic review on how traditional Chinese medicine exerts therapeutic effects by regulating the signaling pathways related to UC in recent years，and it was found that traditional Chinese medicine can regulate nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB），adenylate-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR），Janus tyrosine protein kinase （JAK）/signal transducer and activator of transcription （STAT），phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K） /protein kinase B （Akt），NOD-like receptor thermoprotein structural domain-related protein 3 （NLRP3）/cysteine protease-1 （Caspase-1），nuclear respiratory factor 2 （Nrf2）/heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， and several other pathways，thereby inhibiting oxidative stress and cellular pyroptosis，regulating the Tregs/Th17 cellular balance， promoting autophagic response and M2-type macrophage polarization，restoring the diversity and abundance of intestinal flora，promoting the repair of intestinal mucosal barrier function，and alleviating the inflammatory damage of UC colonic tissues. The holistic concept and evidence-based treatment of traditional Chinese medicine were combined with the modern molecular mechanism research of traditional Chinese medicine， and the traditional Chinese medicine combinations with different mechanisms， following regulation， were formulated into compound formulas or pairs of medicines according to the pattern of evidence. It is expected to achieve better therapeutic efficacy and to provide ideas and references for the modification of classic compound formulae of traditional Chinese medicine in UC treatment and clinical translation.

Ulcerative colitis （UC）， a chronic relapsing inflammatory bowel disease， involves multifaceted pathological mechanisms such as intestinal barrier dysfunction， immune dysregulation， and oxidative stress. Current therapeutic strategies remain limited in efficacy and safety. In recent years， the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK） signaling pathway has emerged as a pivotal therapeutic target for UC due to its central role in energy metabolism， inflammatory regulation， and intestinal homeostasis. This article systematically reviewed the mechanisms by which traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） prevented and treated UC through the regulation of the AMPK signaling pathway， with a focus on elucidating AMPK's multidimensional regulatory network in inflammatory signaling crosstalk， alleviating oxidative stress， restoring intestinal immune balance， repairing the intestinal barrier， and modulating gut microbiota. Leveraging its unique advantages of multi-target engagement and low toxicity， TCM demonstrates promising potential in UC treatment and has become a focal area of research. By systematically summarizing and synthesizing the existing literature on TCM-mediated AMPK pathway modulation in UC， this review aims to provide a theoretical foundation for advancing mechanistic research and clinical interventions in UC.

Ulcerative colitis （UC） is a chronic and relapsing inflammatory bowel disease that primarily affects the mucosal layer of the rectum and colon. Its pathogenesis is complex and remains incompletely understood. Endoplasmic reticulum stress （ERS） plays a critical role in cellular responses to external stress and the maintenance of homeostasis， and its abnormal activation is closely associated with the development of various inflammatory diseases， particularly in the pathological process of UC. ERS maintains cellular homeostasis by activating the unfolded protein response （UPR）. However， when ERS is prolonged or excessive， UPR fails to alleviate the stress， leading to epithelial cell death and aggravating the progression of UC. Modulating ERS may serve as a key target for the prevention and treatment of UC， and it is one of the current research hotspots. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has shown significant efficacy in regulating ERS， offering unique therapeutic advantages through multi-target and multi-pathway mechanisms. Recent studies have confirmed that TCM can alleviate ERS， inhibit apoptosis， regulate autophagy， reduce inflammatory responses， and maintain intestinal barrier function to prevent and treat UC. This review summarized the relationship between ERS and UC and discussed the intervention of TCM in regulating ERS for the treatment of UC， aiming to provide new insights and approaches for the treatment of UC with TCM.

Ulcerative colitis （UC）， a chronic， non-specific inflammatory bowel disease with typical symptoms such as abdominal pain， diarrhea， and bloody stools， demonstrates a high relapse rate and difficulty in curing. Sishenwan， first recorded in Internal Medicine Abstract （Nei Ke Zhai Yao）， are a classic prescription for treating diarrhea caused by deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. The core therapeutic principle of Sishenwan is warming and tonifying the spleen and kidney， and astringing the intestine and stopping diarrhea. In recent years， Sishenwan have demonstrated distinct advantages in the clinical treatment of UC. The pathogenesis of UC involves multiple factors， including immune dysregulation and gut microbiota imbalance. Although Western medicine is effective in the short term， its side effects， high relapse rate， and resistance associated with long-term use pose substantial challenges. Sishenwan have shown excellent clinical outcomes in the treatment of UC due to deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. Modern clinical studies indicate that Sishenwan， used alone or in combination with Western medicine or other Chinese medicine compound prescriptions， significantly improve the clinical efficacy in treating UC due to deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. Sishenwan effectively alleviate core symptoms such as mucus， pus， and blood in stools， and persistent abdominal pain， reduce Mayo scores and the relapse rate， and improve patients' quality of life. Research on the material basis reveals that Sishenwan contain multiple active ingredients such as psoralen， isopsoralen， and evodiamine. Mechanism studies indicate that Sishenwan inhibit the inflammatory cascade reactions by regulating the signal network through multiple targets. Sishenwan regulate cellular immunity and restore intestinal immune homeostasis. At the microecological level， Sishenwan promote the intestinal barrier repair through the "microbiota-metabolism-immunity" axis. The current research still needs to be deepened in aspects such as the mining of specific biomarkers for syndromes and the exploration of the collaborative mechanism of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. In the future， a full-chain system covering syndrome differentiation， targeting， and monitoring needs to be constructed for promoting the paradigm transformation of Sishenwan into precision drugs. This review systematically explains the treatment mechanism of Sishenwan regarding the combination of disease and syndrome and its multi-target regulatory characteristics， providing a theoretical basis and transformation direction for the treatment of UC with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

The integration of medical treatment and disease prevention(hereinafter referred to as"med-prevent integra-tion")constitutes a vital strategy for achieving universal health objectives.Party-building initiatives in university-affiliated hospi-tals present a novel approach to enhance this integration at the primary care level.This study identifies three major challenges in current practice,including insufficient conceptual integration between medical and preventive services,inadequate cross-depart-mental coordination and resource allocation,and imperfect accountability mechanisms within Party-building frameworks.From the perspective of integrated governance,we propose a comprehensive pathway where party-building facilitates the systematic conver-gence of ideological orientation,organizational structure,cultural values,and institutional mechanisms.These findings provide both theoretical framework and practical guidance for university-affiliated hospitals to deepen primary-level med-prevent integration through Party-building initiatives.

Objective:To investigate the effect of a rapid rehabilitation nursing model under the theoretical framework of Rogers' Science of Unitary Human Beings in the postoperative care of children undergoing radical operation on Hirschsprung's disease.Methods:A total of 91 children with Hirschsprung's disease and their parents who underwent radical surgery at the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University (Henan Children's Hospital, Zhengzhou Children's Hospital) between January 2022 and January 2024 were selected by convenience sampling. Using a computer-generated random number table, they were randomly divided into an intervention group ( n=46) and a control group ( n=45). The control group received routine surgical nursing, while the intervention group received a rapid rehabilitation nursing model based on Rogers' theoretical framework in addition to routine care. Postoperative pain stress, anorectal function, gastrointestinal functional recovery, and parental satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Results:On the third postoperative day, the intervention group had lower scores on the FLACC scale, better anorectal function, and shorter times to first bowel sound, first anal exhaust, and first defecation than the control group. The overall parental satisfaction rate in the intervention group was 86.96% (40/46), higher than 51.11% (23/45) in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05) . Conclusions:The rapid rehabilitation nursing model under the theoretical framework of Rogers' Science of Unitary Human Beings showed significant effectiveness in children undergoing radical operation on Hirschsprung's disease. It reduced postoperative pain, promoted recovery of anorectal and gastrointestinal function, and improved parental satisfaction.

Objective To explore the impact of different delay time of umbilical cord ligation on the outcome of preterm infants.Methods A total of 266 preterm infants born in the obstetric department of this hospital from January 2021 to December 2022 were selected as the research subjects and divided into the in-stant group(umbilical cord ligation immediately after birth,n=53),30 s group(delayed umbilical cord liga-tion for 30 s,n=50),60 s group(delayed umbilical cord ligation for 60 s,n=55),90 s group(delayed umbili-cal cord ligation for 90 s,n=55)and 120 s group(delayed umbilical cord ligation for 120 s,n=52)according to the random number table method.The Hb and HCT levels and the incidence rates of anemia,blood transfu-sion,hyperbilirubinemia,intracranial hemorrhage,necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC)and bronchopulmonary dys-plasia(BPD)after birth were compared among 5 groups.Results The Hb and HCT levels at 24 h after birth in the 60,90,120 s groups were higher than those in the instant group and 30 s group,moreover the 120 s group was higher than the 60 s group and 90 s group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The anemia incidence rate and blood transfusion rate in the 60,90,120 s groups were lower than those in the instant group and 30 s group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The hyperbil-irubinemia incidence rate in the 120 s group was higher than that in the other 4 groups,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The intracranial hemorrhage incidence rate in the 60,90,120 s groups were lower than those in the instant group and 30 s group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The NEC incidence rate in the 60 s and 90 s group was lower than that in the instant group and 30 s group,but the 120 s group was higher than that in the other 4 groups,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The BPD incidence rate had no statistical difference among 5 groups(P＞0.05).Con-clusion Delayed umbilical cord ligation for 60 s or 90 s could improve the outcomes of preterm infants.

OBJECTIVE: The study investigates the performance parameters of a nebulizer for pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC). METHODS: Laser diffraction spectroscopy was used to measure the median droplet diameter ( D ₅₀) and spray angle during the steady-state aerosol phase. RESULTS: The minimum droplet diameter of aerosol was achieved when using a nozzle of 0.2 mm diameter and 0.07 mm thickness. The nebulizer could not produce steady-state aerosol when the liquid flow rate was less than or equal to 0.3 mL/s. When the liquid flow rate was greater than or equal to 0.5 mL/s, as the working pressure increased, the median particle size gradually decreased and the spray angle gradually increased. When the pressure is greater than or equal to 200 psi（1 psi=6 894.76 Pa）, as the liquid flow rate increased, the spray angle gradually increased. At a flow rate of 0.7 mL/s and working pressure of 300 psi, the median droplet diameter of aerosol D ₅₀ was 16 μm with a spray angle up to 89.2°. CONCLUSION As a novel intraperitoneal drug delivery technology, PIPAC requires further research focusing on reducing droplet size, expanding drug distribution, improving tissue permeability, and increasing drug concentration.
