Virus-related lymphoma exhibits a dual nature as both a hematologic malignancy and a viral infectious disease, making it more resistant to treatment and associated with poorer prognosis. This paper analyzes the understanding and therapeutic advantages of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in virus-related lymphoma. It proposes a TCM-based approach centered around syndrome differentiation, using standardized measurements of the overall TCM condition, multi-omics research of hematologic tumors, and artificial intelligence technologies to identify the "pre-condition" of virus-related lymphoma. A risk warning model will be established to early identify high-risk populations with viral infections that may develop into malignant lymphoma, thereby establishing a risk warning system for virus-related lymphoma. At the same time, a TCM health management approach will be applied to manage and regulate virus-related lymphoma, interrupting its progression and forming a human-centered, comprehensive, continuous health service model. Based on this, a standardized, integrated clinical prevention and treatment decision-making model for virus-related lymphoma, recognized by both Chinese and western medicine, will be established to provide TCM solutions for primary prevention of major malignant tumors.

Objective:
To investigate the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes and syndrome elements in lymphoma, as well as the correlation between TCM syndromes and Western clinical indicators, in order to analyze associations between TCM syndromes and these indicators.
Methods:
From January 2023 to May 2024, 216 patients with lymphoma who met the inclusion criteria in the Department of Hematology, Third People′s Hospital Affiliated to Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were enrolled. Four diagnostic methods were applied to perform TCM syndrome differentiation and extract syndrome elements. The correlations between various syndromes and blood test indicators of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), β2-microglobulin (β2-MG), immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin M (IgM), immunoglobulin A (IgA), white blood cell (WBC), hemoglobin (Hb), platelet count (PLT), neutrophil (NEUT), immunohistochemical markers of B-cell lymphoma-6 (BCL6), B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL2), proto-oncogene MYC, and Ki67 protein expression, Ann Arbor staging, international prognostic index (IPI) score, bone marrow infiltration, concurrent infections during chemotherapy, and post-chemotherapy bone marrow suppression rate were analyzed.
Results:
Five TCM syndromes, ranked by frequency, were syndromes of yin deficiency with phlegm accumulation(41.67%), qi depression with phlegm obstruction(30.56%), cold-phlegm congelation and stagnation(12.96%), phlegm-blood stasis toxin(12.04%), and lingering pathogen due to deficient vital qi(2.77%). Yin deficiency(50.93%) and phlegm(45.37%) were the more prevalent syndrome elements. The TCM syndromes were correlated with β2-MG, PLT, MYC, BCL2/MYC, Ki67 protein expression, and bone marrow infiltration (P<0.05). No statistically significant differences were observed in Ann Arbor staging or IPI score across the syndromes. Compared to the syndrome of cold-phlegm congelation and stagnation, the syndrome of qi depression with phlegm obstruction exhibited higher levels of NEUT, MYC, BCL2/MYC, and Ki67 protein expression, as well as a higher rate of post-chemotherapy bone marrow suppression (P<0.05); the syndrome of phlegm-blood stasis toxin showed higher MYC and BCL2/MYC protein expression and a higher rate of post-chemotherapy bone marrow suppression rate (P<0.05); the syndrome of yin deficiency with phlegm accumulation demonstrated higher MYC and BCL2/MYC protein expression and bone marrow infiltration rates, whereas PLT level was lower (P<0.05); the syndrome of lingering pathogen due to deficient vital qi had higher MYC, BCL2/MYC, and Ki67 protein expression levels, as well as a higher rate of post-chemotherapy bone marrow suppression rate (P<0.05). Compared to the syndrome of qi depression with phlegm obstruction, the syndrome of phlegm-blood stasis toxin exhibited lower Ki67 protein expression (P<0.05); the syndrome of yin deficiency with phlegm accumulation had higher β2-MG level, bone marrow infiltration rate, and rate of concurrent infections during chemotherapy, whereas PLT and NEUT levels and the rate of post-chemotherapy bone marrow suppression rate were lower (P<0.05). Compared to the syndrome of phlegm-blood stasis toxin, the syndrome of yin deficiency with phlegm accumulation had higher β2-MG level, whereas NEUT and the rate of post-chemotherapy bone marrow suppression were lower(P<0.05); the syndrome of lingering pathogen due to deficient vital qi exhibited a higher Ki67 protein expression (P<0.05). Compared to the syndrome of yin deficiency with phlegm accumulation, the syndrome of lingering pathogen due to deficient vital qi also showed a higher Ki67 protein expression(P<0.05).
Conclusion
The syndrome of yin deficiency with phlegm accumulation is relatively common in lymphoma. There is a correlation between TCM syndromes and Western medicine clinical indicators. The presence of heat signs in the syndromes may indicate active disease and poor prognosis, while the presence of strong pathogenic factors and weak vital qi in the syndromes may indicate a severer chemotherapy-related bone marrow suppression.

[Objective] To explore the strategy of blood management in patients with massive transfusion in the frigid plateau region. [Methods] The treatment process of a patient with liver rupture in the frigid plateau region was analyzed, and the blood management strategy of the frigid plateau region was discussed in combination with the difficulties of blood transfusion and literature review. [Results] The preoperative complete blood count (CBC) test results of the patient were as follows: RBC 3.14×1012/L, Hb 106 g/L, HCT 30.40%, PLT 115.00×109/L; coagulation function: PT 18.9 s, FiB 1.31 g/L, DD > 6 μg/mL, FDP 25.86 μg/mL; ultrasound examination and imaging manifestations suggested liver contusion and laceration / intraparenchymal hematoma, splenic contusion and laceration, and massive blood accumulation in the abdominal cavity; it was estimated that the patient's blood loss was ≥ 2 000 mL, and massive blood transfusion was required during the operation; red blood cell components were timely transfused during the operation, and the blood component transfusion was guided according to the patient's CBC and coagulation function test results, providing strong support and guarantee for the successful treatment of the patient. The patient recovered well after the operation, and the CBC test results were as follows: RBC 4.32×1012/L, Hb 144 g/L, HCT 39.50%, PLT 329.00×109/L; coagulation function: APTT 29.3 s, PT 12.1 s, FiB 2.728 g/L, DD>6 μg/mL, FDP 25.86 μg/mL. The patient was discharged after 20 days, and regular follow-up reexamination showed no abnormal results. [Conclusion] Individualized blood management strategy should comprehensively consider the patient’s clinical symptoms, the degree of hemoglobin decline, dynamic coagulation test results and existing treatment conditions. Efficient and reasonable patient blood management strategies can effectively improve the clinical outcomes of massive transfusion patients in the frigid plateau region.

Objective To investigate the bone protective effects and underlying mechanisms of 900MHz radiofrequency radiation (RF) at different power densities (50, 150, and 450 μW/cm²) on an ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis mouse model. Methods Sixty 3-month-old C57BL/6 female mice were randomly divided into Sham group (sham exposure), OVX group (ovariectomy), OVX + LRF group (OVX + 50 μW/cm2 RF), OVX + MRF group (OVX + 150 μW/cm2 RF), OVX + HRF group (OVX + 450 μW/cm2 RF), and OVX + E2 group (OVX + estradiol). Ovariectomized mice in the OVX + RF groups were exposed to RF of varying power densities for 4 hours daily. Ovariectomized mice in the OVX + E2 group received intramuscular injections of estradiol (0.04 mg/kg) every two days. After four weeks of intervention, Micro-CT, ELISA, RT-PCR, and immunohistochemistry were employed to analyze bone density, bone microstructure, serum bone metabolic markers, and the expression of related genes and proteins. Results Compared with the Sham group, the OVX group showed significantly decreased bone mineral density (BMD) and bone microstructure indicators such as BV, BV/TV, Tb.Th, and Tb.N, significantly increased bone microstructure indicator Tb.Sp, significantly decreased serum estradiol, significantly increased serum CTX-I, TRACP-5b, BGP, and OPG, significantly increased Nfatc1 and Runx2 mRNAs, and significantly increased OPG and RANKL. Compared with the OVX group, the OVX + MRF group and OVX + E2 group exhibited significantly increased BMD, BV, BV/TV, Tb.Th, and Tb.N, significantly decreased Tb.Sp, significantly increased serum OPG, Runx2 mRNA, and OPG, and significantly decreased serum CTX-I, TRACP-5b, Nfatc1 mRNA, and RANKL. Compared with the OVX group, the OVX + LRF group showed significantly increased cortical bone BMD and Tb.Th, the OVX + HRF group showed significantly increased cortical bone BMD and serum CTX-I and TRACP-5b, and the OVX + MRF group showed significantly increased serum BGP. Among the three power densities, the 150 μW/cm2 RF showed the most significant effect. Conclusion The 150 μw/cm2 900 MHz RF can counteract the abnormalities in serum bone metabolism biomarkers, the decrease in BMD, the degeneration of bone microstructure, and the increase in bone resorption caused by ovariectomy in mice.

Objective:
To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of menopausal syndrome among postmenopausal women in Pan'an County, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the basis for guiding the health management of postmenopausal women.
Methods:
From May 2023 to April 2024, the postmenopausal women aged 40 to 69 years in Pan'an County were selected using the random cluster sampling method. Demographic information, lifestyle and prevalence of gynecological diseases were collected through questionnaire surveys. The prevalence of menopausal syndrome was assessed by modified Kupperman Score Scale. Factors affecting menopausal syndrome were analyzed by a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 816 postmenopausal women were surveyed, with an mean age of (57.63±2.92) years and a mean natural menopause age of (49.85±2.13) years. There were 574 cases with menopausal syndrome, with a prevalence of 70.34%. Flashes and sweating, insomnia and irritability were common symptoms, accounting for 62.87%, 47.43% and 41.18%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that monthly personal income of ≤5 000 yuan (<3 000 yuan, OR=3.124, 95%CI: 1.829-5.335; 3 000-5 000 yuan, OR=2.399, 95%CI: 1.370-4.201) and having gynecological diseases (OR=1.970, 95%CI: 1.292-3.004) were associated with a higher risk of menopausal syndrome, while average (OR=0.141, 95%CI: 0.072-0.276) or sufficient sleep quality (OR=0.095, 95%CI: 0.049-0.185) were associated with a lower risk of menopausal syndrome.
Conclusion
The prevalence of menopausal syndrome among postmenopausal women in Pan'an County is relatively high, and is mainly influenced by personal economic status, sleep quality and the presence of gynecological diseases.

ObjectiveTo find out whether there is any difference in the monitoring results of mosq-ovitraps placed in different orientations in multi-storey residential areas, so as to provide a scientific basis for routine and emergency monitoring of Aedes albopictus with mosq-ovitraps in residential areas. MethodsFrom July 6th to October 26th 2023, one mosquito ovitrap was set up in each of the 4 orientations of east, south, west and north around the buildings in a multi-storey residential area in Jinhui Town, Fengxian District, Shanghai. Data was collected and recorded 72 hours after placement. The chi-square test was used to compare the mosquito ovitrap indices (MOIs) of two independent samples, and the Kruskal⁃Wallis H test was used to compare the MOIs of multiple independent samples. ResultsAfter 16 weeks of surveillance, 997 mosquito ovitraps were recovered, of which 211 were positive, with the mosquito ovitrap index (MOI) of 21.16% and the Aedes albopictus density index of 1.03 mosquitoes·ovitrap-1. The MOIs were higher in September (24.22%) and October (23.96%), and the MOIs in the west, south and north within the two months were all above 20.00%. From July to October, the MOIs in the east, west, south and north were 20.70%, 22.20%, 25.50% and 16.20%, respectively, and the difference in MOIs among the 4 orientations was not statistically significant (χ2=6.647, P=0.084). Stratified analysis by month showed that in August, the south side of the multi-storey residential areas had the highest MOI (31.30%), the north side had the lowest MOI (1.30%), and there was a statistically significant difference in MOI in the east, west, south and north (χ2=25.986, P<0.001). In October, the MOI in the west was the highest (33.30%) and the MOI in the east was the lowest (6.30%), the difference in MOIs of the 4 orientations was statistically significant (χ2=12.007, P=0.007). The MOIs in the south side of the building in the outskirts of the residential area from the 1st week in July to the 4th week in October was lower (19.20%) than that in the south side of the inner building (31.70%), and the difference in MOI was statistically significant (χ2=5.118, P=0.024). ConclusionThe study of MOI in different orientations in a multi-storey residential area is a preliminary exploration based on field work, and the results show that there is a difference in MOIs in different orientations during the peak breeding period of mosquitoes. Further indicators such as temperature, humidity and wind speed in different orientations can be collected to explore the influencing factors of MOIs.

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have the ability to sow tumors and can be found in the peripheral blood of patients with precancerous lesions and healthy people. However, CTCs are not currently screened in the donors blood. A large number of allogeneic blood transfusions occurred worldwide each year, and allogeneic blood transfusions expose recipients to the risk of transmission and affect tumors associated with donor CTCs. Although leukocyte filtration can not completely remove tumor cells in the blood, it can effectively reduce the number of white blood cells in the blood and reduce their proliferation ability. Blood irradiation can effectively destroy the DNA of CTCs in the blood, and inhibit the occurrence and metastasis of tumors caused by the infusion of allogeneic blood containing CTCs. Therefore, we should pay attention to the potential risk of CTCs on clinical transfusion, and strengthen the preclinical treatment of blood to avoid donor-related tumor infection in blood recipients due to clinical transfusion.

ObjectiveTo explore the current situation and influencing factors of humanistic care experience among patients visiting traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) outpatient clinics in China, and to provide a basis for optimizing TCM-characterized services in both TCM and Western medicine hospitals. MethodsA multi-center cross-sectional study was conducted using convenience sampling to select 35 hospitals across 13 provinces in China (including 3 TCM hospitals and 32 TCM outpatient clinics in general hospitals). A total of 3,430 patients were surveyed using the general information questionnaire and the Outpatient Humanistic Care Experience Questionnaire, with data collected via Questionnaire Star. Univariate analysis and multiple linear regression were employed to examine the impacts of patient characteristics, visit characteristics, hospital type (TCM hospital/general hospital), and geographic region (eastern/central/western) on humanistic care experience. ResultsThe total score of humanistic care experience was 194 (188, 233). Univariate analysis showed that gender, educational level, current residence, per capita monthly household income, location attribute of medical institutions, number of previous visits to this hospital, payment method of medical expenses, previous hospitalization history in this hospital, frequency of outpatient visits within the past 12 months, self-rated disease severity, familiarity with the outpatient procedures, implementation of the follow-up service provided by the hospital, satisfaction with follow-up services, the grade of the hospital visited, geographical region of the hospital visited, and the department visited had an impact on the humanistic care experience during outpatient visits (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that educational level (β=0.609, P=0.011), self-rated disease severity (β=-0.646, P=0.047), familiarity with outpatient procedures (β=4.784, P<0.001), satisfaction with follow-up services (β=6.365, P<0.001), and the grade of the hospital visited (β=-5.487, P<0.001) affected the humanistic care experience in outpatient medical treatment, explaining 24.4% of the total variation. ConclusionHumanistic care experience in TCM outpatient clinics is influenced by multiple factors. It is recommended to optimize the medical treatment process, strengthen doctor-patient communication training, and establish a precise follow-up mechanism, with a focus on improving care perceptions among patients with lower education levels and those attending primary-level hospitals, to refine the TCM-characterized service system.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of total lignans of Arctii Fructus on the retinal tissue in the rat model of type 2 diabetes mellitus. MethodWistar rats were randomized into normal, model, solvent, Shuangdan Mingmu Capsules (618 mg·kg-1), and low-, medium-, and high-dose (100, 200, 400 mg·kg-1, respectively) total lignans of Arctii Fructus groups, with 16 rats in each group. The rat model was established by streptozotocin (STZ) combined with a high-fat diet and administrated with corresponding drugs by gavage once a day for 14 weeks. At the 14th week, blood was sampled for the collection of serum from the abdominal aorta after anesthesia, and bilateral eyeballs were collected and frozen. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the histopathological changes of the retinal tissue in rats. The pathological changes of retinal vascular network in rats were observed by retinal vascular tissue digestion and mounting The levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in the serum were determined by the ELISA kit. ResultCompared with the normal group, the solvent group showed pathological changes in the retinal tissue, reduced retinal ganglion cells (P<0.01), and retinal thinning (P<0.01), decreased E/P value in retinal blood vessels (P<0.01), and elevated serum levels of VEGF, TNF-α, and ICAM-1 (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the total lignans of Arctii Fructus increased the retinal ganglion cells (P<0.01), thickened the retina (P<0.01), and lowered the serum levels of VEGF, TNF-α, and ICAM-1 (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionTotal lignans of Arctii Fructus may lower the VEGF, TNF-α, and ICAM-1 levels to protect the retina.

Objective To evaluate the noise hazard level of a coal mining enterprise, and identify high-risk operation types and people, and to provide a basis for preventing and controlling the health damage caused by noise. Methods A large coal mining enterprise in Shaanxi Province was selected as the research object. The noise monitoring data of the coal mine over the years was used to calculate the noise exposure matrix of each post in the enterprise, and the classification of occupational hazards at workplaces (GBZ/T 229.4-2012) was used to assess the occupational health risk levels. Results Among the 22 noise-exposed positions in the enterprise, the 8-hour working day equivalent sound level in positions of shearer driver, horseshoe driver, crusher driver, shuttle driver, relaxation screen driver, and grading screen driver were all higher than the occupational exposure limit of noise. In 2021, the noise exposure levels of shearer drivers, crusher drivers, and coal-selecting workers were all higher than 90 dB (A), and the occupational hazard level was moderate hazard level. In addition, the noise exposure levels of most other jobs also exceeded the occupational exposure limit. Conclusion The noise hazards in the coal mine industry are mainly concentrated in the posts of the coal mining system, tunneling system, and screening workshop. Among them, the shearer driver, the crusher driver, and the coal preparation workers have higher noise exposure levels. It is recommended to take corresponding noise reduction measures and strengthen the protection level to reduce the noise exposure risk of workers.
