Objective:To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the reconstruction of multiple digit-tip defects with transfer of polyfoliate perforator flaps of the fibular hallux.Methods:From January 2019 to June 2022, 15 patients had undergone reconstruction surgery for multiple digit-tip defects using polyfoliate perforator flaps of ipsilateral fibular hallux, with the first dorsal metatarsal artery as the pedicle, in the Department of Upper Limb Repair and Reconstruction Surgery, Guizhou Hospital of Beijing Jishuitan Hospital. The patients were 10 males and 5 females and aged 20 to 45 years old. Eight patients had the defects of thumbs and index fingers, 4 of thumbs and middle fingers, 2 of thumb, index and middle fingers and 1 of thumb, index and ring fingers. All the 15 digit injuries had nail bed defects to which reconstructive surgery were required. For the flaps of dorsal artery, flaps were 1.8 cm×2.0 cm-2.0 cm×3.1 cm in size and for those of plantar artery, the flaps sized 1.5 cm×2.0 cm-2.5 cm×3.0 cm. Donor site defects in the hallux were reconstructed with free superficial circumflex iliac perforator flaps. Postoperative follow-up lasted until 30th June 2023 and included visits to the outpatient clinic, WeChat and telephone reviews to assess the appearance, function and sensation recovery of the digits.Results:All the 15 flaps survived. During the 6 to 24 months (16 months in average) of postoperative follow-up, the appearance and texture of all flaps were found close to the healthy digits, with good nail growth and without deformity. TPD were found between 8.0 mm and 12.0 mm. The donor sites on the great toes that reconstructed with superficial circumflex iliac artery flaps were all survived well, and the incisions were satisfactorily healed without the functions of walking, running or jumping being significantly affected.Conclusion:The use of polyfoliate perforator flaps of fibular hallux for reconstruction of multiple digit-tip defects is an ideal surgical method due to the consistency of vascular anatomy, ease with flap harvest, similarity in the normal digital skin texture, and the capability to include a nail bed with the flap. A single donor from the hallux can simultaneously reconstruct two defects of digit-tip, making it an excellent treatment in the reconstruction of small-to medium-sized composite tissue defects in multiple digits.

Kidney deficiency syndrome is a common clinical syndrome in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. With the progress of science and technology， clinical and animal experiments on kidney deficiency syndrome have made remarkable progress. Research on kidney deficiency and the nature of "kidney" involves a large number of physiological and pathological bases， which are closely related to physiological and pathological links in the human body， among which the neuroendocrine-immune network shares the closest relationship. However， there are still many challenges in modern research on kidney deficiency syndrome， such as expert consensus on clinical diagnostic criteria and evaluation indexes and optimization of animal experimental models. In the past decade， a large number of clinical and animal experiments have been reported in the literature on kidney deficiency syndrome， among which the literature focusing on the combination of disease and syndrome is predominant， and most of them focus on kidney Yang deficiency and kidney Yin deficiency， involving the exploration of many pathological mechanisms. Research on the mechanisms related to kidney deficiency syndrome encompasses multiple signaling pathways and various biochemical indicators， including the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/nuclear factor-erythroid 2-relatedfactor-2（PI3K/Akt/Nrf2） signaling pathway， the Toll-like receptor 4/myeloid differentiation factor88/nuclear factor-κB（TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB） signaling pathway， the Janus kinase 2/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3（JAK2/STAT3） signaling pathway， Osteoprotectin/nuclear factor-κB receptor activator ligand/receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB （OPG/RANKL/RANK） signaling pathway. The biochemical indicators cover the cyclic adenosine monophosphate/cyclic guanosine monophosphate （cAMP/cGMP） ratio， Na⁺-K⁺-ATPase activity， Ca²⁺-Mg²⁺-ATPase activity， adrenocorticotropic hormone （ACTH）， polycorticosterone （CORT）， 17-OHCS， and other sex hormone indicators， providing crucial reference values for diagnosing kidney Yang deficiency or kidney Yin deficiency. The literature related to kidney deficiency syndrome over the past decade was collated and excavated， with a view to providing a reference for research on kidney deficiency syndrome.

Blood deficiency syndrome (BDS) refers to a pathological state with blood dysfunction and organ dystrophy in traditional Chinese medicine. Danggui Wuji granules (DWG) was developed from a formula containing Angelicae Sinensis Radix and Musculus et Os Galli Domestici. Herein, we investigated the mechanism of DWG in treating BDS by modulating gut microbiota. We found that DWG protected mice from BDS by elevating the levels of red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and hematocrit in peripheral blood and increasing the erythrocyte membrane Na⁺-K⁺-ATPase activity. Danggui Wuji granules changed the composition and metabolites of colonic flora. Notably, Lactobacillus, Muribaculaceae, and Alistipes were the main genera showing changes after DWG treatment. Our findings revealed that DWG presented a positive therapeutic effect on BDS in mice by regulating the gut microbiota and metabolites. The protective mechanism of DWG was associated with pathways such as metabolic pathways, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, ABC transporters, ribosome, thyroid hormone synthesis, lysine degradation, galactose metabolism, tyrosine metabolism, etc.

COVID-19 is caused by a novel coronavirus-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which has being spreading around the world, posing a serious threat to human health and lives. Neutralizing antibodies and small molecule inhibitors for virus replication cycle are the main antiviral treatment for novel coronavirus recommended in China. To further promote the rational use of antiviral therapy in clinical practice, the National Center for Infectious Diseases (Beijing Ditan Hospital Capital Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine) invited experts in fields of infectious diseases, respiratory and intensive care to develop an Expert Consensus on Antiviral Therapy of COVID-19 based on the Diagnosis and Treatment Guideline for COVID-19 ( trial version 10) and experiences in the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 in China. The consensus is concise, practical and highly operable, hopefully it would improve the understanding of antiviral therapy for clinicians and provide suggestions for standardized medication in treatment of COVID-19.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for standardizing the labeling of medication information for pregnant women and lactating women in the instructions of antiarrhythmic drugs. METHODS The instructions of antiarrhythmic drugs were collected from the terms of “medication reference ”on official website of Yimaitong Technology Co. ，Ltd. The labeling of medication information of pregnant women and lactating women were sorted out ，counted and analyzed with reference to the Detailed Rules for Specifications of Instructions of Chemical Drugs and Therapeutic Biological Products issued by the State Food and Drug Administration. RESULTS A total of 111 instructions of antiarrhythmic drugs were collected in this study ，of which 102 instructions were marked with “medication for pregnant women ”（91.89％），of which the proportion of those with medication guidance and without medication guidance were 75.68％ and 16.22％ respectively. Eighty-eight drug instructions were marked with the item “medication for lactating women ”（79.28％），of which the proportion of those with medication guidance and without medication guidance were 70.27％ and 9.01％ respectively. Among different categories of antiarrhythmic drugs ，the best labeling of “medication for pregnant women ”was class Ⅰ antiarrhythmic drugs （100％），while class Ⅲ drugs（25.00％）were most missing ； class Ⅳ antiarrhythmic drugs （94.44％）were the best labeled for “medication for lactating women ”，while class Ⅰ（26.47％）were the most missing . There were differences in the labeling contents of “medication for pregnant women ”and“medication for lactating women ”in some drug instructions of the same variety from different manufacturers. Among the 99 drug instructions of domestic pharmaceutical enterprises ， 92 listed the items of “medication for pregnant women”and“medication for lactating women ”，and the proportions of them with medication guidance were 74.75％ and 69.70％ respectively；among the 12 drug instructions of foreign pharmaceutical enterprises ，10（83.33％）listed the items of “medication for pregnant women ”and“medication for lactating women ”，and the proportion with medication guidance was 83.33％ and 75.00％ respectively. CONCLUSIONS There are some problems in the labeling content of domestic antiarrhythmic drug instructions，such as the lack of information related to “medication for pregnant women ”and“medication for lactating women ”， the confusion of guidance expression ， the inconsistent content of drug instructions of the same variety from different manufacturers，the lag of modification and update ，and the poor standardization of drug instructions. Drug supervision and administration departments and drug manufacturers should pay attention to them and constantly strengthen the management and standardization of instructions.

Objective To study the safety and feasibility of laparoscopy combined with holmium laser in the treatment of chronic pancreatitis complicated with pancreatic ductal stones.Methods To compare the clinical data in patients who underwent laparoscopy combined with holmium laser (10 patients,group A) with those who underwent laparoscopy only (21 patients,group B) at Zhejiang Provincial People' s Hospital from January 2012 to August 2018.The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,intraoperative conversion rate,pancreatic ductal incision length,postoperative pancreatic fistula rate,length of postoperative hospital stay,residual stone rate and relief of postoperative abdominal pain rate of the two groups were documented and analyzed.Results Three of 31 patients were converted to open surgery.The remaining patients in the two groups were discharged home without any perioperative death.Group A and B were significant differences in the pancreatic ductal incision length (5.0±0.8 vs.6.5±1.0) cm,operation time (289.3±51.6 vs.349.5± 34.7) min,and postoperative hospital stay (8.0± 1.2 vs.10.2± 1.6) d between the two groups (P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the intraoperative conversion to open rate,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative pancreatic fistula rate,residual stone rate and relief of postoperative abdominal pain rate between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions It was safe and feasible to treat chronic pancreatitis complicated with pancreatolithiasis by laparoscopy.Laparoscopy combined with holmium laser had the added advantages of easy access through the pancreaticojejunostomy,shorter operation time,and less intraoperative blood loss.

To determine the value of radiomics in identifying lymph node (LN) metastasis in patients with rectal nonmucinous adenocarcinoma.
 Methods: Imaging data of 91 patients were retrospectively analyzed (61 in the training set and 30 in the test set). A total of 1 301 radiomics features were extracted from high-resolution T2-weighted images of the whole primary tumor. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) logistic regression was performed to choose the optimal features and construct a radiomics classifier in the training set. Its discrimination performance was compared with that of morphological criteria by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, which was validated in the test set.
 Results: The radiomics classifier combined with five key features was significantly associated with LN metastasis, which distinguished LN metastasis with an area under curve (AUC) at 0.874 (95% CI 0.787 to 0.960) in the training set, and the performance was similar in the test set (AUC 0.878, 95% CI 0.727 to 1.000). The AUCs according to the morphological criteria in the training set and test set were 0.619 (95% CI 0.487 to 0.752) and 0.556 (95% CI 0.355 to 0.756), respectively. Discrimination of the radiomics classifier was superior to that of morphological criteria in both the two datasets (both P <0.05).
 Conclusion: The radiomics classifier provides individualized risk estimation for LN metastasis in rectal nonmucinous adenocarcinoma patients and it has the advantage over the morphological criteria.
