Based on the physiological characteristics of children and the theory of the "five spirit-associated zang （脏） organs"， this paper proposes that the core pathogenesis of autism spectrum disorder （ASD） in children is the dysfunction of mental activities caused by impaired qi circulation of the five zang organs. Therefore， the therapeutic principle is to regulate qi of the five zang organs and restore normal mental function. Treatment is administered based on syndrome differentiation according to the five zang organs， including heart， spleen， kidney， liver and lung. Accordingly， self-made Qingshen Yangxin Decoction （清神养心汤） is prescribed to invigorate the heart and regulate spirit， Shunzhi Daotan Decoction （顺志导痰汤） to awaken spleen and regulate spirit， Zishen Shenjiao Decoction （滋肾神交汤） to nourish kidney and regulate spirit， Anhun Wendan Decoction （安魂温胆汤） to soothe liver and regulate spirit， and Qingpo Decoction （清魄汤） to diffuse lung and regulate spirit. This approach aims to provide a theoretical and clinical reference for the treatment of childhood ASD in traditional Chinese medicine.

Depression is primarily characterized by persistent low mood,emotional disorders,and loss of interest.Somatization disorder is a type of neurotic disorder,primarily featuring recurrent,varied,and non-organic physical discomfort symptoms.In traditional Chinese medicine,depression with somatization disorder can be classified under the category of"depression"and"hysteria"according to its clinical symptoms.This article focuses on the dynamic evolution of the functions of the kidney,spleen,and liver,and explains the core pathogenesis of depression with somatization disorder based on the theory of"cold water,damp earth,and stagnant wood"proposed by HUANG Yuanyu.It explores the causes and related manifestations.Symptoms mainly characterized by cramps and convulsions can be attributed to the liver;symptoms primarily characterized by heaviness,distension,and dull pain accompanied by weakness can be attributed to the spleen;symptoms primarily characterized by stiffness,reluctance to move or inability to move,and reluctance to extend outward can be attributed to the kidney.Liver depression and spleen dampness,as well as wood depression and earth congestion,are treated by strengthening the spleen and soothing the liver,drying dampness and calming wind,and the modified Xiaoyao Powder combined with Yueju Pill is recommended.Spleen dampness and kidney coldness,earth failure and water overflow,are treated by tonifying the spleen and kidney,warming water and transforming dampness,and the modified Jingui Shenqi Pill combined with Linggui Zhugan Decoction is recommended.Kidney coldness and liver hyperactivity,water not nourishing wood,are treated by warming the kidney and enriching essence,replenishing water and nourishing wood,and the modified Dihuang Yinzi is recommended.This article explores the corresponding etiology,pathogenesis,treatment methods,and prescriptions for depression with somatization disorder,with the aim of providing new insights for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To explore the association between walking exercise guided by 6 minute walking test(6MWT)and the incidences of 3-year major adverse cardiovascular event(MACE)in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods A total of 628 elderly ACS patients who undergoing PCI and obtaining success-ful coronary revascularization in our department from November 2018 to April 2019 were enrolled,and divided into 6MWT group(n=147)and control group(n=481)based on participa-ting in walking exercise guided by 6MWT or not.All of them were followed up for 3 years.The incidences of MACE[including coronary target vascular restenosis,acute myocardial infarction,heart failure,ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke]and all-cause death were observed.Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional analyses and Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis were employed for data statistical analyses.Results At the end of follow-up,the incidences of target vascular restenosis(6.9％vs 2.0％,P=0.028),heart failure(3.7％vs 0％,P=0.036),stroke(3.7％vs 0％,P=0.036),and total MACE incidence(15.0％vs 4.1％,P=0.000)were statistically higher in the control group than the 6MWT group.Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the cumulative incidence of MACE was significantly lower in the 6MWT group than the control group(Plog rank=0.001).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that not participating in walking exercise guided by 6MWT was an independent risk factor for occurrence of 3-year MACE(HR=3.102,95％CI:1.327-7.250,P=0.009).Conclusion Walking exercise guided by 6MWT reduces the incidence of 3-year MACE and improves the long-term prognosis of elderly ACS patients after PCI.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between serum annexin A1 (ANXA1), macrophage inflammatory protein 1-α (MIP-1α), soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) and pulmonary infection in elderly patients with coronary heart disease complicated with heart failure and their predictive value.Methods:A total of 197 elderly patients with coronary heart disease combined with heart failure admitted to the Second Hospital of Qinhuangdao from January 2021 to January 2023 were retrospectively selected, and divided into pulmonary infection group (36 cases) and non pulmonary infection group (161 cases) according to whether the patients had pulmonary infection during hospitalization. Serum ANXA1, MIP-1α and sTREM-1 levels were detected in two groups. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of lung infection in elderly patients with coronary heart disease combined with heart failure. The predictive value of serum ANXA1, MIP-1α and sTREM-1 levels on lung infection in elderly patients with coronary heart disease combined with heart failure was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:The incidence of pulmonary infection in 197 elderly patients with coronary heart disease combined with heart failure was 18.27%(36/197). Compared with the non pulmonary infection group, the pulmonary infection group had higher levels of serum ANXA1, MIP-1 α, sTREM-1, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, and higher proportion of New York Heart Association (NYHA) heart function grade Ⅳ and diabetes, and lower left ventricular ejection fraction (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that NYHA cardiac function grade Ⅳ, diabetes mellitus and elevated levels of procalcitonin, ANXA1, MIP-1α and sTREM-1 were independent risk factors for pulmonary infection in elderly patients with coronary heart disease combined with heart failure (all P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve predicted by serum ANXA1, MIP-1α and sTREM-1 combined was 0.909, which was larger than that predicted by serum ANXA1, MIP-1α and sTREM-1 alone. Conclusions:Elevated levels of serum ANXA1, MIP-1α and sTREM-1 are independent risk factors for pulmonary infection in elderly patients with coronary heart disease combined with heart failure, and can be used as auxiliary predictors of pulmonary infection in elderly patients with coronary heart disease combined with heart failure.

Objective To search for new biomarkers to predict prognosis in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients.Methods A prognostic model was developed for colorectal cancer with immune-related genes from the cancer ge-nome atlas (TCGA) database using one-way Cox regression analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection op-erator (LASSO) regression analysis.Moreover, the immune infiltration characteristics of patients in high and low risk groups was compared by sstimation of stromal and immune cells in malignant tumor tissues using expression da-ta (ESTIMATE) and cell-type identification by estimating relative subsets of RNA transcripts (CIBERSORT) .In addition, the expression levels of immune checkpoints were analyzed in patients from different risk groups.The sen-sitivity of patients in the two risk groups to chemotherapeutic agents was also compared based on genomics of drug sensitivity in cancer (GDSC).Results It was found that the prognostic model constructed based on immune genes could better predict the overall survival (OS) of CRC patients,and the results showed area under curve (AUC) values of 0.764 (95％ CI:0.751-0.793), 0.773 (95％ CI:0.761 -0.779), and 0.760 (95％ CI:0.742 -0.774) for 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS, respectively.Patients in the low-risk group had higher expression levels of im-mune checkpoints and more abundant immune cells such as T cells (P<0.001) , dendritic cells (P<0.001) , macrophages (P<0.001) , neutrophils (P<0.001) .Patients in the high-risk group might be more sensitive to some chemotherapeutic agents such as axitinib, imatinib, methotrexate, pazopanib, rapamycin, sunitinib and tasig-arnib.Conclusion A prognostic model based on 19 immune genes was effective in predicting the prognosis of CRC patients.The number and activity of immune cells in the immune microenvironment in different patients may be an important factor influencing their response to immunocheck inhibitors and chemotherapeutic agents.
