Medical institutions, with their clinical practice foundation and abundant human use experience data, have become important carriers for the inheritance and innovation of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) and the "cradles" of the preparation of new TCM. To effectively promote the transformation of new TCM originating from the TCM clinical practice in medical institutions and establish an effective evaluation index system for the transformation of new TCM conforming to the characteristics of TCM, consensus experts adopted the literature research, questionnaire survey, Delphi method, etc. By focusing on the policy and technical evaluation of new TCM originating from the TCM clinical practice in medical institutions, a comprehensive evaluation from the dimensions of drug safety, efficacy, feasibility, and characteristic advantages was conducted, thus forming a comprehensive evaluation system with four primary indicators and 37 secondary indicators. The expert consensus reached aims to encourage medical institutions at all levels to continuously improve the high-quality research and development and transformation of new TCM originating from the TCM clinical practice in medical institutions and targeted at clinical needs, so as to provide a decision-making basis for the preparation, selection, cultivation, and transformation of new TCM for medical institutions, improve the development efficiency of new TCM, and precisely respond to the public medication needs.

Finally, we conclude the survey by deliberating on promising trends in transformer models within the context of drug discovery and other sciences.

Objective:To investigate the effect of CD8+CD28-T cells on acute graft-versus-host disease(aGVHD)after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(haplo-HSCT).Methods:The relationship between absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells and aGVHD in 60 patients with malignant hematological diseases was retrospectively analyzed after haplo-HSCT,and the differences in the incidence rate of chronic graft-versus host disease(cGVHD),infection and prognosis between different CD8+CD28-T absolute cells count groups were compared.Results:aGVHD occurred in 40 of 60 patients after haplo-HSCT,with an incidence rate of 66.67％.The median occurrence time of aGVHD was 32.5(20-100)days.At 30 days after the transplantation,the absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells of aGVHD group was significantly lower than that of non-aGVHD group(P=0.03).Thus the absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells at 30 days after transplantation can be used to predict the occurrence of aGVHD to some extent.At 30 days after transplantation,the incidence rate of aGVHD in the low cell count group(CD8+CD28-T cells absolute count＜0.06/μl)was significantly higher than that in the high cell count group(CD8+CD28-T cells absolute count ≥0.06/μl,P=0.011).Multivariate Cox regression analysis further confirmed that the absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells at 30 days after transplantation was an independent risk factor for aGVHD,and the risk of aGVHD in the low cell count group was 2.222 times higher than that in the high cell count group(P=0.015).The incidence of cGVHD,fungal infection,EBV infection and CMV infection were not significantly different between the two groups with different CD8+CD28-T cells absolute count.The overall survival,non-recurrent mortality and relapse rates were not significantly different between different CD8+CD28-T cells absolute count groups.Conclusion:Patients with delayed CD8+CD28-T cells reconstitution after haplo-HSCT are more likely to develop aGVHD,and the absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells can be used to predict the incidence of aGVHD to some extent.The absolute count of CD8+CD28-T cells after haplo-HSCT was not associated with cGVHD,fungal infection,EBV infection,and CMV infection,and was also not significantly associated with the prognosis after transplantation.

Aim To explore the mechanism of Yanghe decoction-containing serum on the migration and inva-sion of MCF-7 breast cancer cells in a co-culture sys-tem with M2 tumor-associated macrophages(TAMs)based on the paracrine epidermal growth factor(EGF)/epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)sig-naling pathway.Methods The M2-type TAMs model was induced from THP-1 monocytic cell line through in vitro treatment with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate(PMA)and recombinant human macrophage colony-stimulating factor(M-CSF).The MCF-7 cells were co-cultured with M2-type TAMs using a Transwell non-contact co-culture system to evaluate their effects on migration and invasion.Subsequently,the cells were intervened with serum containing Yanghe decoction,and the proliferation of MCF-7 cells was detected using the CCK-8 assay,while their lateral migration ability was assessed through scratch assays.The invasion and vertical migration abilities of the cells were evaluated separately using Transwell assays,and the concentra-tion of EGF was measured using ELISA.Finally,the expression of EGFR,MCP-1,and MMP9 proteins was detected using Western blot.Results Compared to the control group,Yanghe decoction-containing serum in-hibited the proliferation of MCF-7 cells before and after co-culture.The serum reduced the scratch healing a-bility before and after co-culture and decreased their migration and invasion abilities.Additionally,Yanghe decoction-containing serum reduced the levels of EGF before and after co-culture and decreased the expres-sion of EGFR,MCP-1,and MMP9 proteins before and after+co-culture.Conclusion Yanghe decoction-containing serum can inhibit the migration and invasion of breast cancer MCF-7 cells before and after co-cul-ture with M2 TAMs.This effect may be related to the inhibition of the EGF-EGFR signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate the influence of clinical administration of dobutamine on blood perfusion in free flap repair of diabetic foot wounds.Methods:A prospective self‐controlled study was conducted. From January to November 2022, 20 patients with diabetic foot who met the inclusion criteria were hospitalized in the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery of Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University, including 9 males and 11 females, aged from 44 to 75 years, with the foot wounds area ranging from 5 cm×4 cm to 20 cm×10 cm, which were repaired by free anterolateral thigh flaps. Heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were recorded before anesthesia induction, 10 minutes after vascular recanalization, when the target blood pressure (i.e., MAP being 6-10 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) higher than that before anesthesia induction) was reached after infusion of dobutamine, and 10 minutes after tracheal catheter removal. Additionally, indocyanine green, a contrast agent, was injected intravenously at 10 minutes after vascular recanalization and when the target blood pressure was reached after infusion of dobutamine to assess flap blood perfusion using infrared imager, and the area ratio of flaps with hyperperfusion and hypoperfusion was calculated. Other recorded variables included flap harvesting area, surgical duration, total fluid infusion amount, infusion dose and total usage of dobutamine, intraoperative adverse events, postoperative flap complications, and follow‐up outcomes. Data were statistically analyzed with paired sample t test, analysis of variance for repeated measurement, Bonferroni method, and generalized estimating equation. Results:Compared with those before anesthesia induction, HR and MAP of patients were significantly decreased at 10 minutes after vascular recanalization ( P<0.05), while HR and MAP of patients were significantly increased when the target blood pressure was reached after infusion of dobutamine ( P<0.05). Compared with those at 10 minutes after vascular recanalization, HR and MAP of patients were significantly increased when the target blood pressure was reached after infusion of dobutamine and at 10 minutes after tracheal catheter removal ( P<0.05). Compared with those when the target blood pressure was reached after infusion of dobutamine, HR and MAP of patients were significantly decreased at 10 minutes after tracheal catheter removal ( P<0.05). The area ratio of flaps with hyperperfusion of patients was 0.63±0.11 when the target blood pressure was reached after infusion of dobutamine, which was significantly higher than 0.31±0.09 at 10 minutes after vascular recanalization ( t=-9.92, P<0.05). The area ratio of flaps with hypoperfusion of patients was 0.12±0.05 when the target blood pressure was reached after infusion of dobutamine, which was significantly lower than 0.45±0.10 at 10 minutes after vascular recanalization ( t=17.05, P<0.05). The flap harvesting area of patients was (174±35) cm2, the surgical duration was (372±52) min, the total fluid infusion amount was (2 485±361) mL, the infusion dose of dobutamine was 3-13 μg·kg?1·min?1, and the total usage of dobutamine was 5.7 (2.1, 9.7) mg. Two patients showed a significant increase in MAP during the infusion of dobutamine compared with that at 10 minutes after vascular recanalization, but before reaching 6 mmHg higher than that before anesthesia induction, their HR had reached the maximum (over 130 beats/min). The HR gradually returned to around 90 beats/min after the infusion of dobutamine was stopped. On post operation day 2, one patient had partial necrosis at the distal part of the flap, which was repaired by transplantation of thin split-thickness skin graft from the opposite thigh. During the follow‐up of 3 to 6 months after operation, all the flaps survived well, with soft texture and well-formed shape, and no adverse cardiovascular events of patients were reported. Conclusions:The administration of dobutamine in free flap repair of diabetic foot wounds can significantly improve the MAP of patients, expand the area of hyperperfusion, reduce the area of hypoperfusion, and enhance the flap viability, with promising short‐term follow‐up results, which is suitable for promotion in clinical applications.

Objective: To compare the short-term efficacy and long-term prognosis of laparoscopic and laparotomy radical resection for gallbladder cancer(GBC). Methods: From January 2010 to December 2020,the clinical data and survival information for 133 patients who underwent radical resection of GBC at the Department of Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery,Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital,were retrospectively collected. Eighty patients(23 males and 57 females) underwent laparoscopic radical resection and had a median age(M(IQR)) of 66.0(12.8)years(range:28.0 to 82.0 years). Fifty-three patients(45 males and 8 females) who received laparotomy were 63.0(6.0)years old(range:45.0 to 80.0 years old). There were no significant differences in age,gender,body mass index,preoperative albumin,preoperative total bilirubin,N stages,vascular invasion,peri-neural invasion or tumor differentiation between the laparoscopic and laparotomy group(all P>0.05). But there were significant differences in preoperative CA19-9(Z=-2.955, P=0.003), preoperative ALT level(Z=-2.801,P=0.031) and T stage (χ²=19.110,P=0.007) between the two groups. A non-parametric test was used for quantitative data. χ² test or Fisher exact probability method was used for count data. Results: Patients in the laparoscopic group did not differ from those in the laparotomy group in terms of length of operation,number of lymph node yield,number of positive lymph nodes,the incidence of intraoperative gallbladder rupture,incidence of postoperative bile leakage,abdominal bleeding or abdominal infection,30-day mortality,90-day mortality, the incidence of incision implantation or peritoneal cavity metastasis(all P>0.05). Patients in the laparoscopic group showed less intraoperative bleeding(100.0(200.0)ml vs. 400.0(250.0)ml)(Z=-5.260,P<0.01),fewer days with drainage tube indwelling(6.0(3.8)days vs. 7.0(4.0)days)(Z=-3.351, P=0.001), and fewer postoperative days in hospital(8.0(5.0)days vs. 14.0(7.5)days)(Z=-6.079,P<0.01) than those in the laparotomy group. Patients in the laparoscopic group displayed better overall survival (P<0.01) and progression-free survival (P<0.01). Subgroup analysis for GBC of T1b-T2 and T3 stages revealed comparable overall survival and progression-free survival between the laparoscopic and laparotomy groups (P>0.05). Conclusions: Laparoscopic radical resection can achieve long-term survival for GBC comparable to that with open surgery. Laparoscopic radical resection has advantages over open surgery regarding surgical trauma and postoperative recovery.

Objective:To explore the automated external defibrillator (AED) configuration optimization strategy in line with the characteristics of the rapidly developing cities by analyzing the actual coverage of AED in Bao'an District based on the real world data of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) in Bao'an District, Shenzhen City.Methods:The data of cardiac arrest database registered in Bao'an District of Shenzhen City from March 1, 2019 to February 29, 2020 were included in a retrospective observational study. The AED coverage of public and non-public areas was analyzed by calculating the minimum distance between the occurrence place of each OHCA event and the nearest AED. The minimum distance ≤100 m was set as AED coverage, and the minimum distance > 100 m was set as non-AED coverage. It was assumed that one AED was configured for each OHCA hotspot area, then the AED coverage changes were analyzed. Based on the actual situation that the AED in schools, governments, sports venues, subways, tourist attractions and parks of public areas in Bao'an District could not be obtained at any time within 24 hours, it was assumed that all AED in the public areas could be obtained at any time within 24 hours, the impact of AED available at any time on AED coverage was analyzed.Results:A total of 525 cases of OHCA were enrolled. The highest incidence of OHCA was found in residential and industrial areas [54.5% (286/525) and 14.3% (75/525), respectively]. There were 252 AED in Bao'an District, Shenzhen, and 115 OHCA events occurred within the coverage area of AED. Even if all AED met the ideal state that could be obtained at any time within 24 hours, the coverage rate was only 21.9% (115/525). The AED coverage rate of the public areas and non-public areas was 31.6% (37/117) and 19.1% (78/408) respectively, with uneven distribution, and the AED coverage rate of non-public areas was low. Assuming that the residential community and industrial zone with more than 2 OHCA cases were respectively equipped with one AED, the coverage rate of AED in the non-public areas increased from 19.1% (78/408) to 28.2% (115/408), basically meeting the requirement that AED could be obtained at any time when OHCA events occurred. Some AED in the public areas of Bao'an District were not available at any time within 24 hours. If the ideal state that all AED in the public area could be obtained at any time within 24 hours could be achieved, the AED coverage rate of all regions increased from 16.8% (88/525) to 21.9% (115/525), the AED coverage rate of the public areas increased from 29.1% (34/117) to 31.6% (37/117), the AED coverage rate of the non-public areas increased from 13.2% (54/408) to 19.1% (78/408).Conclusions:AED configuration in Bao'an District was unevenly distributed, and the coverage rate of AED in non-public areas was low. The allocation strategy for AED in fast-growing cities like Shenzhen should be as follows: on the premise of ensuring AED availability for 24 hours, priority should be given to covering the number of AED in the non-public areas including residential communities and industrial zones; AED is available in the public areas for 24 hours.

Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT>1 year) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes who were event-free at 1 year after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stent (DES) in a large and contemporary PCI registry. Methods: A total of 1 661 eligible patients were selected from the Fuwai PCI Registry, of which 1 193 received DAPT>1 year and 468 received DAPT ≤1 year. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event (MACCE) and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) type 2, 3 or 5 bleeding, MACCE was defined as a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction or stroke. Multivariate Cox regression analysis and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) Cox regression analysis were performed. Results: After a median follow-up of 2.5 years, patients who received DAPT>1 year were associated with lower risks of MACCE (1.4% vs. 3.2%; hazard ratio (HR) 0.412, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.205-0.827) compared with DAPT ≤1 year, which was primarily caused by the lower all-cause mortality (0.1% vs. 2.6%; HR 0.031, 95%CI 0.004-0.236). Risks of cardiac death (0.1% vs. 1.5%; HR 0.051, 95%CI 0.006-0.416) and definite/probable ST (0.3% vs. 1.1%; HR 0.218, 95%CI 0.052-0.917) were also lower in patients received DAPT>1 year than those received DAPT ≤ 1 year. No difference was found between the two groups in terms of BARC type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding (5.3% vs. 4.1%; HR 1.088, 95%CI 0.650-1.821). Conclusions: In patients with stable CAD and diabetes who were event-free at 1 year after PCI with DES, prolonged DAPT (>1 year) provides a substantial reduction in ischemic cardiovascular events, including MACCE, all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, and definite/probable ST, without increasing the clinically relevant bleeding risk compared with ≤ 1-year DAPT. Further well-designed, large-scale randomized trials are needed to verify the beneficial effect of prolonged DAPT in this population.
