Based on the theoretical framework of "grease-turbidity-heat toxin"， this paper elucidates the patholo-gical evolution pattern underlying the alternation between active and remission phases of inflammatory bowel disease （IBD）. It is proposed that the active phase of IBD represents a progressive and explosive process characterized by internal accumulation of grease turbidity， constraint transforming into heat， and exuberant heat generating toxin. During the remission phase， the pathogenic process manifests as subsidence of heat toxin， depletion of qi and yin， latent retention of residual turbidity， and a state of coexistence between deficiency of healthy qi and lingering pathogenic factors. Accordingly， a staged therapeutic strategy with dynamic intervention and targeted modulation has been established. During the active phase， treatment follows the sequential principle of unblocking， clearing， and resolving pathogenic factors. In the early stage， the therapeutic approach focuses on regulating qi movement， fortifying the spleen， and resolving turbidity， using Tongxie Essential Formula （痛泻要方） and Shenling Baizhu Powder （参苓白术散） to regulate qi and fortify spleen. In the middle stage， the strategy emphasizes clearing heat， eliminating dampness， and dispersing pathogenic accumulation through downward and outward pathways， and Gegen Qinlian Decoction （葛根芩连汤） combined with Banxia Xiexin Decoction （半夏泻心汤） is used to clear and resolve damp-heat. In the late stage， treatment aims to resolve toxin， restrain sore， cool blood， and stabilize collaterals， using Baitouweng Decoction （白头翁汤）， Shaoyao Decoction （芍药汤）， and Xijiao Dihuang Decoction （犀角地黄汤） to eliminate toxins and cool blood. During the remission phase， the principle of reinforcing， consolidating， and penetrating is adopted to restore internal balance and clear the source， using Sishen Pills （四神丸） and Sijunzi Decoction （四君子汤） to reinforce healthy qi and venting pathogens.

Based on the theory of Zi Wu Liu Zhu （子午流注， the ebb and flow of midnight and midday） and the clinical characteristics of diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome （IBS-D） that its symptoms mainly occur during chou （丑） period （01：00—03：00）， mao （卯） period （5：00—7：00）， and si （巳） period （9：00—11：00）， this paper proposes a temporal pathogenesis chain of "liver constraint during chou period， intestinal stagnation during mao period， and spleen deficiency during si period". Within this chain， liver constraint serves as the initiating factor， and intestinal stagnation manifests as the branch， while spleen deficiency constitutes the root of the disease. Accordingly， a chronotherapeutic principle of "soothing the liver， regulating the intestines， and fortifying the spleen" is proposed， establishing a corresponding time-based syndrome differentiation and treatment system. During chou period， the treatment should focus on soothing the liver to relieve constraint and calming the mind to tranquilize the spirit， thereby blocking the mechanism of liver constraint overacting on the spleen. During mao period， the focus is regulating qi to resolve dampness and harmonizing the intestine to alleviate the branch symptoms of morning abdominal pain and diarrhea. During si period， the suggested method is fortifying the spleen and supplementing qi to drain dampness and stop diarrhea， thereby restoring the pivot of spleen-stomach transportation and transformation. These methods are complemented by strategies to optimize medication compliance， thereby providing a new chronotherapeutic approach for clinical diagnosis and treatment of IBS-D.

Objective To conduct a scoping review of research on the relationship between 24-hour movement behaviours and cognitive function in the elderly,so as to provide references for future research.Methods Totally 8 Chinese and English databases were systematically searched.The search period spanned from the establishment of databases until November 30,2024.According to the scoping review framework,2 researchers independently screened the studies,extracted the data of the included studies,and collaborated on the final analysis.Results A total of 12 papers were included,and the distribution of 24-hour movement behaviors in the elderly was as follows:3.0-5.4 h/d for light physical activity,0.6-1.5 h/d for moderate vigorous physical activity,8.9-12.3 h/d for sedentary behaviour and 6.7-8.4 h/d for sleep.Measures included objective,subjective and subject-objective measures.There are complex interactions among physical activity,sedentary behavior,sleep and cognitive function,which jointly affect cognitive function in the elderly.Conclusion Despite current differences in the measurement of 24-hour movement behaviours,the decreased physical activity,the increased sedentary time,and insufficient or excessive sleep are common problems among the elderly.By increasing physical activity,reducing sedentary behavior and ensuring adequate sleep,the overall cognitive function,executive function of the elderly can be improved.In the future,we should pay attention to the time allocation of 24-hour movement behaviours of the elderly,develop accurate and standardized measurement methods,and promote research in this field.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of bundle intervention measures on incidence of catheter-related in-fections in patients of neurosurgery intensive care unit(NICU).METHODS The related data regarding to incidence rates of hospital-associated infections and utilization rates of catheters were collected from the NICU patients of Renji Hospital,Shanghai Jiaotong University from 2007 to 2022.The effect of the bundle intervention measures on reducing the incidence of catheter-related infections was analyzed by means of interrupted tune series(ITS)method.RESULTS There was significant difference in the decline trend of incidence of the infections during the study(the trend x2=91.978,P＜0.001).ITS analysis showed that the utilization rate of catheters only presented the decline trend after the intervention(β2=-0.667,P=0.042),the utilization rate of ventilator tubes only de-clined after the intervention(β3=-26.375,P＜0.001).Th utilization rate of central venous catheters showed a downward trend before the intervention(β1=-2.525,P＜0.001)but did not change significantly after the inter-vention.The incidence of central line-associated bloodstream infection(CLABSI)was decreased(RR=0.268,95％CI:0.124 to 0.581),however,there was significant difference in the change of slope(RR=0.912,95％CI:0.730 to 1.140).The incidence of catheter-associated urinary tract infection(CAUTI)showed a downward trend(RR=0.796,95％CI:0.647 to 0.975),however,there was no significant difference in the change of the level(RR=1.543,95％CI:0.816 to 3.005).The incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP)showed a downward trend(RR=0.829,95％CI:0.767 to 0.895),however,there was no significant difference in the change of the level(RR=0.817,95％CI:0.595 to 1.114).CONCLUSIONS The bundle intervention measures may effectively reduce the incidence of catheter-related infections.The incidence rates of the catheter-related infections vary in the chan-ging trends after the interventions are taken,indicating that it is necessary to comprehensively take the character-istics of catheter-related infections into account when carrying out the bundle intervention measures and continu-ously optimize the control strategies.

Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by the host's dysfunctional response to infection. Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SICM), as a serious complication of sepsis, is an acute reversible cardiac dysfunction syndrome unrelated to myocardial ischemia, which affects the outcome and prognosis of sepsis. As a complex microbial system, gut microbiota has been confirmed to be involved in the development of coronary heart disease, hypertension, heart failure and other cardiovascular diseases, and is also related to the occurrence and development of sepsis. However, there are few studies on the relationship between gut microbiota and SICM. This paper reviews the current research progress on gut microbiota and SICM, aiming at provide a new idea for clinical treatment of SICM.

ObjectiveTo explore the possible peripheral analgesic mechanism of electroacupuncture （EA） at promimal and distal acupoints in treatment of myofascial pain syndrome （MPS）. MethodsTwenty-four SD rats were randomly divided into blank group， model group， proximal group， and distal group， with six rats in each group. MPS model was prepared by “strike combined with centrifugal exercise” in all groups except for the blank group. After modeling， the rats in the proximal group received EA at the local myofascial trigger points （MTrPs）， namely the Ashi points， with dilatational waves of frequency of 2/100 HZ and voltage of 2-4 V， current intensity depending on a slight trembling of the left lower limbs， once a day， 15min each time，for 14 days. The rats in the distal group received EA at “Yanglingquan” （GB 34） and “Yinlingquan” （SP 9）， with the same operations as the proximal group. The rats in the blank group and the model group were only grasped and hedged， without other interventions. After intervention， the paw withdrawl mechanical threshold （PWMT） was measured， and variability between the left and right hind paws was calculated. Musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging and electromyography monitoring were performed on the left lower extremity vastus medialis. The morphological changes of vastus medialis muscle of the left lower extremity were observed by HE staining. The positive expression of substance P （SP）， calcitonin gene-related peptide （CGRP）， CD68 and CD206 in muscle tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry. Abdominal aortic serum interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-10 （IL-10）， and interleukin-8 （interleukin-8） were detected by ELISA. ResultsCompared to those in the blank group， the fibers of the vastus medial muscle of the rats in the model group were broken and distorted with thickness in variation， and the myofascia was broken， with fibrillation potential， enlarged muscle cells， inward moved nucleus， and widened muscle space； the variability of PWMT between the left and right hind paws significantly increased， as well as the levels of SP， CGRP， CD68， and CD206 in the vastus medialis muscle （P＜0.01）， and the serum IL-8 and TNF-αlevels were significantly elevated （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared to those in the model group， the muscle fibers in the proximal and distal group were complete in shape and arranged in an orderly manner， with continued non-broken myofascia， regular shape of muscle cells， and significantly reduced level of IL-8 （P＜0.01）； the amplitude and frequency of spontaneous discharge in the proximal group significantly decreased， as well as the variability of PWMT between the left and right hind paws， and the levels of SP， CGRP， and CD68 in the vastus medialis muscle， while the CD206 level increased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 ）； there was complex discharges in the distal group， with significantly decreased level of CD68 in the vastus medialis muscle and increased level of CD206 （P＜0.01）. Compared to the proximal group， the level of IL-8 in the distal group was significantly higher （P＜0.05）. ConclusionsEA at proximal acupoints can significantly improve the pain threshold and local muscle tissue morpho-logy in rats， and its mechanism may be related to reducing the levels of pain-causing substances and related inflammatory factors and promoting the polarization of macrophages. The analgesic effect of EA at distal acupoints is not obvious， and the mechanism is still unclear.

Objective:To develop the screening checklist of brief interview for autism disorder suitable for Chinese children and evaluate its reliability and validity.Methods:Based on existed research results and diagnostic criteria for autism spectrum disorder of DSM-5, the screening checklist of brief interview for autism spectrum disorder(SCAD) was developed. A sample of 238 children were selected for investigation and 28 of them were retested for test-retest reliability with 2-4 weeks interval. Cronbach's α coefficient, split-half correlation coefficient, test-retest reliability, and evaluator consistency were used to test the reliability of the scale. Content validity, construct validity and empirical validity were used to test the validity of the scale.All statistical analysis were conducted by SPSS 22.0 and AMOS 17.0.Results:The SCAD contains two components and six dimensions, with a total of 25 items. The Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.936 for the total scale and were 0.938, 0.771 for the two components. The split-half coefficient for the total scale and the two components were 0.962, 0.938 and 0.794. The test-retest reliability for the total scale and the two components were 0.806, 0.795 and 0.766. The Kendall coefficient for the total scale and the two components were 0.968, 0.982 and 0.950. The SCAD item-level content validity index (I-CVI) ranged from 0.66 to 0.98 and the Kappa value ranged from 0.66 to 0.98. The scale-level content validity S-CVI/UA and S-CVI/Ave were 0.89 and 0.94. The correlations between SCAD and calibration tests such as ABC, CARS and M-CHAT were 0.54, 0.53 and 0.87, and the correlation coefficients with the M-CHAT-R/F between the two components were 0.87 and 0.76 respectively (both P<0.01). The result of CFA demonstrated that the model fitted the data with well construct validity(χ 2/ df=0.910, RMR=0.049, AGFI=0.974, RMSEA=0.010, PNFI=0.530, PCFI=0.533, NFI=0.994, RFI=0.988, CFI=1.000). The correlation coefficient of the two components was 0.88 and that with the total scale were 0.97 and 0.90, each dimensions with the total scale ranged from 0.72 to 0.93. Conclusion:The SCAD has a good reliability and validity, and it can be used as a clinical screening tool for children with autism spectrum disorder.
