This paper systematically reviewed the concept of authentication studies on traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） classics and the research achievements of scholars across historical and contemporary periods. We categorized the authentication studies on TCM classics into four types， including work-oriented authentication research， metho-dological studies on authentication， extended authentication research， and single-book authentication. Multiple methods were applied comprehensively， including investigating bibliographic documents of successive dynasties， analyzing the academic contents of medical books， studying the textual characteristics of medical books， examining the cited references in medical books， verifying the biographies of authors， and analyzing the interpolations and accretions in medical books， to distinguish the authenticity of TCM classics. The academic value of authenticity identification of TCM classics is concluded in three aspects，i.e. it serves as an important means to distinguish authenticity from falsehood in TCM classics， an important guarantee for inheriting the essence of TCM literature， and a key to unlocking the academic treasure trove of TCM classics and achieving inheritance-based innovation， which will lay a solid documentary foundation for constructing identification methodologies and standardized systems.

Existentialist philosophy focuses on human existence， explores subjectivity and uniqueness， and highlights the value of human existence. Advanced cancer patients generally suffer immense existential distress， each with their own modes of appearance and numerous possibilities. From the perspective of existentialist philosophy， targeting the group of advanced cancer patients， this paper clarified the analysis of “Dasein” （holistic phenomenon and modes of appearance）. Through recognition （achieving to deepen the inner scope of the subject and object） and comprehension （seeking appropriate “self-knowledge”）， it introduced the planning of variable possibilities. Subsequently， based on the patients’ pre-possessing， pre-seeing， and pre-grasping， explanatory activities were carried out to complete the “self-formation” in the planning. Ultimately， it facilitated the realization of existential meaning in the presupposition and proposed actionable clinical practices （meaning therapy and emotional touch therapy） to alleviate the existential distress of advanced cancer patients.

By sorting out the records of Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma as food and medicine, this article believed that Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma as the same origin of medicine and food for a long history, the earliest in the Qin and Han Dynasty Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing: "Zhu, bitter and warm, having efficacy for cold, dampness, paralysis of dead muscles, and spasm; antiperspirant, removing heat, digesting food, and be used as decoction bait; taking for a long time, losing weight and prolonging life, and don't be hungry". On the basis of Shen Nong Ben Cao Jing, later doctors continue to conduct long-term clinical observation and compatibility of its medicine and food efficacy, which is widely used in internal, external, gynaecology, pediatrics, skin and other departments, to treat spleen and stomach diseases, epidemic diseases, kidney diseases, etc. At the same time of clinical practice, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma is also widely used in the folk for dietary therapy, including decoction bait, ointment, decoction, soup and other edible methods. Therefore, as a medicine and food and health preservation product, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma has great development potential in daily health care and disease diagnosis and treatment with the effects of non-toxic, satiety and longevity.

BACKGROUND:At present,there are few reports on the postoperative efficacy of arthroscopic coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation and coracoid single tunnel fixation in the treatment of acromioclavicular joint dislocation at home and abroad.The specific clinical efficacy of the two procedures and whether there are other risks need to be explored. OBJECTIVE:To compare the short-term postoperative clinical efficacy of arthroscopic TightRope band plate fixation with single tunnel fixation of the coracoid process and tunnel-free suspension fixation of the coracoid process in the treatment of acute type Ⅲ-Ⅴ acromioclavicular joint dislocation. METHODS:A retrospective analysis was performed in 45 patients with acromioclavicular joint dislocation who met the inclusion criteria admitted to the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from June 2019 to September 2022,and were divided into coracoid single tunnel fixation group(20 cases)and coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group(25 cases)according to the surgical treatment plan.Operation time,incision length,blood loss,Constant-Murley score,visual analogue scale score,the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons(ASES)score and intraoperative and postoperative complications of the shoulder joint before operation,3 months after surgery and the last follow-up were compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:All patients successfully completed the operation,and there was no important nerve or blood vessel damage during the operation.The operation time of the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group was significantly shorter than that of the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss and incision length between the two groups(P>0.05).All patients were followed up for 12 to 24 months,with an average of(15.29±2.73)months.In the coracoid single tunnel fixation group,at 3 months after operation and the final follow-up,the visual analogue scale score was significantly lower than the preoperative score(P<0.05);Constant-Murley score and ASES score were significantly increased compared with the preoperative values(P<0.05).In the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group,at 3 months after operation and the final follow-up,the visual analogue scale score was significantly lower than the preoperative score(P<0.05);the Constant-Murley score and the ASES score were both significantly higher than the preoperative scores(P<0.05).At 3 months after operation,the Constant-Murley score of the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group was higher than that of the coracoid single tunnel fixation group(P<0.05),while there was no significant difference in visual analogue scale and ASES scores between the two groups(P>0.05).There was also no significant difference in the visual analogue scale,Constant-Murley,and ASES scores between the two groups at the corresponding time points before surgery and at the final follow-up(P>0.05).Intraoperative and postoperative complications:In the coracoid single tunnel fixation group,there was one case of coracoid cortical rupture and fracture during the tunnel drilling during the operation,and one case of a loss of reduction at 3 months after operation,which was repositioned and fixed with hook plate transposition of the coracoacromial ligament.All patients had good acromioclavicular joint function recovery and no re-dislocation at the final follow-up.All patients in the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation group did not suffer from coracoid fractures,loss of reduction and other complications during surgery,postoperatively and at the last follow-up.To conclude,these two arthroscopic treatments for acute type Ⅲ-Ⅴ acromioclavicular joint dislocation have the advantages of less trauma,reliable reduction and fixation,and good recovery of shoulder joint function after operation.However,compared with the coracoid single tunnel technique,the coracoid tunnel-free suspension fixation requires shorter time,faster recovery of shoulder joint function in the short term,and avoids the establishment of bone tunnels on the coracoid process,which reduces the probability of iatrogenic fracture of the coracoid process during operation and provides a higher degree of safety.

Objective To introduce the modeling method of pendulum-like modified rat abdominal heart heterotopic transplantation model and evaluate the quality of the model. Methods An operator without transplantation experience performed 15 consecutive models, recorded the time of each step, changes in body weight and modified Stanford scores, and calculated the surgical success rate, postoperative 1-week survival rate and technical success rate. Ultrasound examinations was performed in 1 week postoperatively. Results The times for donor heart acquisition, donor heart processing, recipient preparation and transplantation anastomosis were (14.3±1.4) min, (3.5±0.6) min, (13.6±2.1) min and (38.3±5.2) min respectively. The surgical success rate was 87% (13/15), and the survival rate 1 week after operative was 100% (13/13). The improved Stanford score indicated a technical success rate of 92% (12/13), and the postoperative 1-week ultrasound examination showed that grafts with Stanford scores ≥3 had detectable pulsation and blood flow signals. Conclusions The pendulum-like modified rat abdominal heart heterotopic transplantation improved model further optimizes the operational steps with a high success rate and stable quality, may be chosen as a modeling option for basic research in heart transplantation in the future.

Objective To analyze the distribution characteristics and influencing factors of ultra-long hospitalization in malignant tumor patients and to explore strategies to reduce the average length of stay and enhance the efficiency of medical re-source utilization.Methods Ultra-long hospitalization was defined as the 99th percentile of hospital stay duration(P99=31 days).Data from patients discharged with malignant tumors in a specialized cancer hospital in 2024 were collected.The distribu-tion characteristics and influencing factors were analyzed using chi-square tests and logistic stepwise regression.Results Among the 36 097 patients with malignant tumors,the average length of stay was 4.95 days,with 375 cases classified as ultra-long hospi-talizations,accounting for 1.04％.These patients were predominantly over 55 years old,with a higher proportion of males.Pa-tients with stage Ⅲ malignant tumors,primary tumors classified as T2～T3,and primary sites in the esophagus,pancreas,and maxillofacial regions had a higher incidence of ultra-long hospitalizations.Significant factors influencing ultra-long hospitalization included treatment modality,complications(OR=20.319),number of discharge diagnoses(OR=6.915),ICU transfers(OR=4.714),unplanned reoperations(OR=4.416),tumor type,extent,and stage.Conclusion Medical institutions are advised to address the influencing factors of ultra-long hospitalizations by optimizing diagnostic and treatment processes,enhan-cing quality control systems,establishing early warning mechanisms,and strengthening information systems.These measures aim to improve the standardization of malignant tumor diagnosis and treatment,ensuring patient safety.

Acute lateral ankle sprain (ALAS) is one of the most common sport injuries, with high incidence, recurrence and disability rates. Currently, exercise rehabilitation-based non-surgical treatment is the primary management approach for ALAS. However, there remain improper practices such as excessive immobilization or uncontrolled activity, which contribute to recurrent sprains and chronic ankle instability, significantly impairing patients′ athletic function and quality of life. To standardize the non-surgical management of ALAS, improve the cure rates, and reduce the recurrence and disability rates, Chinese Sports Rehabilitation Medicine Training Project of Chinese Medical Association, Foot and Ankle Basics and Orthopedics Group, Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Sports Medicine Branch of Jiangsu Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate Expert consensus on non-surgical treatment for acute lateral ankle sprain ( version 2025), following the principles of scientific vigor, practicality, and innovation. Thirteen recommendations were proposed for standardized treatment protocols across different healing phases, aiming to provide references for standard management of ALAS and improve the therapeutic outcomes.

Objective:In alignment with the practical teaching objectives of Diseases of the Locomotor System and the competency requirements for graduates of military medical universities, this study conducted a multidimensional modification of the traditional objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) to provide a novel training mode that enhances the effectiveness of practical teaching of this course.Methods:The traditional OSCE was modified from the four dimensions of integration, individuality, immersion, and intelligence. The first three stations were set as "diagnosis" and the last three stations were set as "operation" to reflect the "integration" of diagnosis and treatment. The last station of "operation" was set as "medical cares of combat and training injuries" to reflect "individuality" of military medical training. The method of situation creation was used to reflect "immersion", and the application of intelligent terminals reflected "intelligence". The study involved 50 trainees who were assigned to either a modified OSCE group or a traditional teaching group through a random drawing process. The teaching effectiveness was assessed through evaluation of theoretical knowledge, practical skills, and participant satisfaction. The statistical analysis was conducted by SPSS 22.0, with parametric data assessed by t-tests and non-parametric data assessed by chi-square tests. Results:Before entering the department, there were no statistically significant differences in theoretical ( P=0.832) and practical ( P=0.513) scores between the two groups of trainees. However, after the internship, the modified OSCE group demonstrated significantly enhanced scores compared to the traditional teaching group, both in theory assessment [(93.88±1.92) vs. (90.76±2.85), P=0.001] and skill assessment [(94.32±1.25) vs. (91.68±2.82), P=0.001]. Additionally, the self-assessment of clinical capability improvement by the modified OSCE group was markedly higher across all dimensions than the traditional teaching group ( P=0.001). Furthermore, the evaluation conducted by basic combat unit on the job competency of graduated trainees indicated that the modified OSCE group outperformed the traditional teaching group in basic clinical diagnosis and treatment [(4.72±0.46) vs. (3.44±0.71), P=0.001], emergency management of combat and training injuries [(4.72±0.46) vs. (3.52±0.71), P=0.001], application of information technology [(4.44±0.71) vs. (3.91±0.80), P=0.029], basic military qualities [(4.40±0.71) vs. (3.92±0.91), P=0.043], mental health and resilience [(4.36±0.70) vs. (3.68±0.85), P=0.003], and the capacity for continuous learning [(4.64±0.70) vs. (3.83±0.76), P=0.001]. Conclusions:The modified OSCE teaching mode can better meet the practical teaching requirements for Diseases of the Locomotor System in the military medical university and thus holds promise for further application.

Objective:To explore the effect of Swanson theory combined with hand touch on the existential distress of patients with advanced lung cancer, in order to provide reference for clinical humanistic care.Methods:A non synchronous controlled study was conducted using convenience sampling to select advanced lung cancer patients admitted to the Oncology Department of the First People's Hospital of Yongkang City, Zhejiang Province from October 2023 to March 2024 as the control group, and advanced lung cancer patients admitted from April to October 2024 as the experimental group. The control group received routine care, while the experimental group received Swanson theory combined with hand touch intervention on the basis of routine care. The Existential Distress Scale (EDS) and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- General (FACT-G) scores of the two groups were compared before and 2 weeks after intervention.Results:During the study period, there were 3 dropouts in the experimental group and 2 dropouts in the control group. Finally, 37 cases were included in the experimental group, including 16 males and 21 females, with an age of (62.35 ± 12.13) years. There were 38 cases in the control group, including 25 males and 13 females, with an age of (65.68 ± 13.46) years. After 2 weeks of intervention, the EDS score of the experimental group patients was (6.65 ± 2.89) points, while that of the control group was (8.16 ± 2.27) points. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t = 2.52, P<0.05). After intervention, the social/family status dimension, emotional status dimension, and total score of FACT-G in the experimental group were (15.35 ± 4.18), (19.27 ± 3.54), and (57.46 ± 14.69) points, respectively, which were better than the control group's (13.08 ± 3.77), (16.53 ± 3.88), and (50.58 ± 11.86) points. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t = - 2.47, - 3.20, - 2.24, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The combination of Swanson theory and hand touch can effectively reduce the existential distress of patients with advanced lung cancer, improve their quality of life, and embody the concept of nursing humanistic care into simple and safe intervention measures, providing reference for clinical humanistic care.
