OBJECTIVE To explore and establish a full-cycle management model for drug traceability codes that aligns with national policy requirements and the practical needs of healthcare institutions， thereby enhancing the refinement of drug management and the level of medication safety. METHODS A tripartite strategy integrating “hardware deployment， system transformation， and process re-engineering” was adopted. This involved the introduction of intelligent identification devices （personal digital assistant， high-definition industrial reader）， the modification of the hospital information system interface， and the re-engineering of workflows （drug warehousing， dispensing and distribution， drug withdrawal， uploading to the insurance platform） to achieve comprehensive， informatized collection and association of drug traceability codes throughout all stages. RESULTS A full-cycle management model for drug traceability codes was successfully established， realizing the goals of making drugs “traceable to their source， trackable in their distribution， and accountable in their responsibility”. The patient waiting time for medication dispensing before and after the implementation was [3.08（1.67，5.58）] min and [3.28（1.77，5.98）] min， respectively. Among them， the patient waiting time under the pre-preparation mode was [3.60（2.13，6.35）] min and [3.50（2.03，6.30）] min， respectively； the patient waiting time under the real-time mode was [2.05（0.83，4.03）] min and [2.78（1.18，5.38）] min， respectively； the number of dispensing errors was 3， 0， respectively； the staffing of relevant positions had not been increased. CONCLUSIONS The drug traceability code management model constructed from a full-cycle perspective effectively meets national policy requirements. It provides data support for refined hospital management and offers solid technical and procedural safeguards for ensuring patient medication safety and strengthening medical insurance fund supervision， demonstrating practical value.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Erchentang （ECD） on the body weight of the mouse model of simple obesity induced by a high-fat diet （HFD） and decipher the underlying mechanisms. MethodsFirstly， single-cell transcriptomics （Sc-RNAseq） was employed to analyze the transcriptional changes in the ileum tissue of mice in the normal group and model group. Then， a mouse model of simple obesity was established with a high-fat diet. The successfully modeled mice were randomly allocated into the following four groups （n=8）： model， low-dose （7.5 g·kg^-1） ECD， medium-dose （15 g·kg^-1） ECD， and high-dose （30 g·kg^-1） ECD. Additionally， 8 mice of the same age were selected as the normal group. The body weight was measured at fixed time points during the 4-week gavage period. The overall efficacy of ECD in alleviating obesity was evaluated through glucose tolerance testing， behavioral analysis， hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， and biochemical testing. Protein docking was employed to predict the degree of binding between corresponding proteins. Molecular docking was employed to predict the binding degree between key components of ECD and target proteins. Real-time PCR was employed to determine the mRNA levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， CD68， CD206， zonula occludens-1 （ZO-1）， and Claudin-5 in the ileum. Immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the expression and distribution of Claudin-5 and ZO-1. ResultsThe Sc-RNAseq results indicated that the differentially expressed genes of immune cells in the model group in comparison with the normal group were primarily enriched in biological functions related to lipid metabolism and inflammatory metabolism. Additionally， these genes were associated with the janus kinases（JAK）/signal transducers and activators of transcription （STAT） signaling pathway， an inflammation-related pathway. Compared with the normal group， the model group showed increases in body weight （P<0.01） and blood glucose level （P<0.01）， a decrease in limb strength （P<0.01）， an increase in liver weight （P<0.05）， and elevated serum alanine amino-transferase （ALT） and aspartate transferase （AST） levels （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Additionally， the model group exhibited increased hepatic fat vacuoles， notably enlarged adipocytes in the epididymal and inguinal white adipose tissue， and increased inflammation. Compared with the model group， ECD groups showed reduced body weights （P<0.01） and blood glucose levels （P<0.01）， increased limb strength （P<0.05， P<0.01）， decreased liver weights （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and declined serum ALT and AST levels （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Additionally， ECD reduced hepatic fat vacuoles and the adipocyte volume in the epididymal and inguinal white adipose tissue， and alleviated inflammation. Potential interactions existed between CD68 and ZO-1/Claudin-5， as well as between CD206 and ZO-1/Claudin-5. The key components of ECD， nobiletin， diosmetin， and naringenin， all demonstrated strong binding affinity with the target proteins ZO-1 and Claudin-5. Compared with the normal group， the model group exhibited up-regulated mRNA levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α， iNOS， IL-1β， and CD68 （P<0.05， P<0.01） and down-regulated mRNA levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine CD206 （P<0.01） and the tight junction proteins Claudin-5 and ZO-1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In comparison with the model group， the ECD groups showed down-regulated mRNA levels of TNF-α， iNOS， IL-1β， and CD68 （P<0.05， P<0.01） and up-regulated mRNA levels of CD206， Claudin-5， and ZO-1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the normal group， the model group exhibited down-regulated expression of tight junction proteins Claudin-5 and ZO-1 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， ECD groups showed up-regulated expression of Claudin-5 and ZO-1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionECD can significantly ameliorate HFD-induced obesity and excessive body weight gain in mice by improving the inflammatory microenvironment in the ileum and further restoring the integrity of the impaired ileal barrier.

OBJECTIVE To provide technical support for improving recognition rate of adverse drug events （ADEs） related to traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） formula granules and decoction pieces among inpatient patients. METHODS By referencing the global trigger tool （GTT） whitepaper， literature on adverse reactions to TCM， and expert review opinions， ADE trigger items for TCM formula granules and decoction pieces used in the inpatients were established. GTT was applied to analyze ADEs in inpatients who had used TCM formula granules and decoction pieces in our hospital from August 2013 to August 2023， utilizing the Chinese Hospital Pharmacovigilance System. The effectiveness of GTT and the characteristics of these ADEs were analyzed. RESULTS A total of forty-eight triggers were established， including thirty-two laboratory test indexes， thirteen clinical symptoms， and three antidotes. Among the 1 682 patients included， GTT identified 652 potential ADEs， 284 true positive ADEs，with a trigger rate of 38.76% and a positive predictive value of 43.56%. After review by the auditor， 278 cases of ADEs were finally confirmed， with an incidence rate of 16.53%， significantly higher than the number of spontaneously reported ADEs during the same period （0）. The 278 cases of ADEs were mostly grade 1 （223 cases）， mainly involving hepatobiliary system， gastrointestinal system， blood- lymphatic system， etc；a total of 219 types of TCMs are involved，and the top five suspected TCMs used at a frequency higher than 1% were Poria cocos， Codonopsis pilosula， Atractylodes macrocephala， fried Glycyrrhiza uralensis， and Scutellaria baicalensis. CONCLUSIONS The established GTT can improve the recognition rate of ADEs for hospitalized patients using traditional Chinese medicine formula granules and decoction pieces.

The prognosis of stage IV gastric cancer is extremely poor. Due to the diversificationof treatment methods and the rise and popularizationof multidisciplinary treatment(MDT), the conversion therapy for stage IV gastric cancer has been recognized by more and more surgeons, which brings hope to patients with stage IV gastric cancer,. However, stage IV gastric cancer has various forms of metastasis, and the effect of conversion therapy and the prognosis of patients depend on the site of tumor metastasis and the systemic tumor load. Our team has long applied MDT diagnosis and treatment mode to patients with stage IV gastric cancer, performing R0 surgical resection for patients with tumor down staging or distant metastasis control after conversion. We would like to share our team's experiences and some controversial hot topics, focal points and difficult problems.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of vitamin AD combined with step-up therapy in children with asthma and its impact on humoral immunity,pulmonary function and recurrence.Meth-ods A total of 94 children with asthma were enrolled,and randomly divided into study group(n=47)and control group(n=47)using random number table method.The control group adopted the step-up treatment plan on the basis of conventional treatment,while the study group was treated with vitamin AD on the basis of the control group.The clinical efficacy,pulmonary function indicators[forced vital capacity(FVC),forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV,),FEV1/FVC and peak expiratory flow rate(PEF)]and humoral immunefunction[immunoglobulin G(IgG),immuno-globulin A(IgA),immunoglobulin M(IgM)and immunoglobulin E(IgE)]after treatment were compared between the two groups.The recurrence rateand safety of the two groups after treatment were compared.Results The total effective rate of clinical efficacy in the study group was 93.62％,which was significantly higher than 78.72％in the control group(P＜0.05).After treatment,FVC,FEV1,FEV1/FVC and PEF levels were significantly higher in both groups compared to pre-treatment values,and the study group showed significantly better improvement than the control group(P＜0.05).After treatment,serum IgG and IgA levels in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group,whereas IgM and IgE levels were significantly lower(P＜0.05).At 12 months after treatment,the recurrence rate in the study group was 4.26％(2/47),which was sig-nificantly lower than 19.15％(9/47)in the control group(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Vitamin AD combined with step-up therapy effectively alleviates clinical symptoms,modulates humoral immune balance,improves pulmonary function,and reduces recurrence rates in children with asthma,and has high safety.

Bone formation and deposition are initiated by sensory nerve infiltration in adaptive bone remodeling.Here,we focused on the role of Semaphorin 3A(Sema3A),expressed by sensory nerves,in mechanical loads-induced bone formation and nerve withdrawal using orthodontic tooth movement(OTM)model.Firstly,bone formation was activated after the 3rd day of OTM,coinciding with a decrease in sensory nerves and an increase in pain threshold.Sema3A,rather than nerve growth factor(NGF),highly expressed in both trigeminal ganglion and the axons of periodontal ligament following the 3rd day of OTM.Moreover,in vitro mechanical loads upregulated Sema3A in neurons instead of in human periodontal ligament cells(hPDLCs)within 24 hours.Furthermore,exogenous Sema3A restored the suppressed alveolar bone formation and the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs induced by mechanical overload.Mechanistically,Sema3A prevented overstretching of F-actin induced by mechanical overload through ROCK2 pathway,maintaining mitochondrial dynamics as mitochondrial fusion.Therefore,Sema3A exhibits dual therapeutic effects in mechanical loads-induced bone formation,both as a pain-sensitive analgesic and a positive regulator for bone formation.

Gastrointestinal motility disorder is an important cause of digestive system diseases. Patients often suffer from nausea， vomiting， gastric retention， gastroparesis， constipation， and many other symptoms， and their quality of life is seriously reduced. Prokinetic agents are routinely used in clinical practice， but their long-term use is prone to problems such as reduced efficacy and increased adverse reactions. Since the incidence of gastrointestinal diseases has continued to rise globally in recent years， there is an urgent need for clinical development of safe and effective treatment strategies. Aurantii Fructus， a traditional Chinese medicine， has the effect of smoothing Qi and eliminating distention， and it has been used to treat gastrointestinal diseases for thousands of years. In modern clinical practice， it is mainly used for the treatment and auxiliary treatment of various gastrointestinal diseases such as functional dyspepsia， functional constipation， and irritable bowel syndrome. The efficacy is remarkable， and no adverse reactions have been reported at conventional doses. Therefore， it can greatly improve the symptoms of patients with gastrointestinal diseases and improve their quality of life. Modern research has revealed that there are many active components in Aurantii Fructus， among which flavonoids have the highest content and the most types. Flavonoids are the main active components in Aurantii Fructus to regulate gastrointestinal motility. Aurantii Fructus and its active components can affect gastrointestinal hormones， neural pathways， Cajal mesenchymal cells， and other multiple mechanisms. They can adjust gastrointestinal motility and correct gastrointestinal motility disorders， showing potential application value in the treatment of gastrointestinal motility disorders. However， a comprehensive analysis of Aurantii Fructus in this aspect is still lacking. This study summarized the pharmacological activities of active components of Aurantii Fructus extract and its flavonoids， volatile oils， alkaloids， and coumarin on the regulation of gastrointestinal motility and explored the latest research progress on its mechanism. Finally， the adverse reactions of Aurantii Fructus were summarized. It aims to provide a scientific basis for the research and clinical application of Aurantii Fructus and its active components in the regulation of gastrointestinal motility.

Bone formation and deposition are initiated by sensory nerve infiltration in adaptive bone remodeling. Here, we focused on the role of Semaphorin 3A (Sema3A), expressed by sensory nerves, in mechanical loads-induced bone formation and nerve withdrawal using orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) model. Firstly, bone formation was activated after the 3rd day of OTM, coinciding with a decrease in sensory nerves and an increase in pain threshold. Sema3A, rather than nerve growth factor (NGF), highly expressed in both trigeminal ganglion and the axons of periodontal ligament following the 3rd day of OTM. Moreover, in vitro mechanical loads upregulated Sema3A in neurons instead of in human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) within 24 hours. Furthermore, exogenous Sema3A restored the suppressed alveolar bone formation and the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs induced by mechanical overload. Mechanistically, Sema3A prevented overstretching of F-actin induced by mechanical overload through ROCK2 pathway, maintaining mitochondrial dynamics as mitochondrial fusion. Therefore, Sema3A exhibits dual therapeutic effects in mechanical loads-induced bone formation, both as a pain-sensitive analgesic and a positive regulator for bone formation.
