This paper summarizes professor LI Guolie's clinical experience in treating orthostatic hypotension (OH) based on the theory of "raising the clear and directing the turbid downward". It is considered that the core pathogenesis of OH lies in the body's transition from a supine to an upright position, during which dysfunction of the middle jiao (焦) transformation and transportation, along with impaired pivot function, hinders the ascending of clear yang and the descending of turbid yin. Treatment should follow the general principle of "ascending the clear and directing the turbid downward", placing emphasis on distinguishing the primary and secondary aspects. For cases where the clear yang fails to ascend, the self-formulated Li's Shengqing Jiangzhuo Decoction (李氏升清降浊汤)is used to supplement qi, raise the clear, and strengthen the middle jiao. For cases where the turbid yin fails to descend, the self-formulated Wuxiang Qingzhuo Beverage(五香清浊饮)with modifications is applied to resolve phlegm, eliminate stasis, harmonize the middle, and descend the turbid.

Objective: To retrospectively analyze the early monitoring indicators before and after admission, the use of coagulation/anticoagulant medications, and the red blood cell transfusion within 24 hours in emergency trauma patients, and to identify the indicators related to the volume of red blood cells transfused during the first 24 hours of hopitalization, thereby assisting clinical judgment of the probability and required quantity of red blood cell transfusion. Methods: Data of 117 emergency trauma patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) from January 2022 to March 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were categorized according to whether the volume of red blood cells transfused within 24 hours exceeded specific quartile thresholds (Q1, Q2, Q3). Non-parametric tests were used for numerical variables and Chi-square tests were used for categorical variables to identify statistically significant single-factor indicators, which were subsequently incoporated into a binary logistic regression model to obtain a combined predictive probability. ROC curve analysis was performed on the multi-factor indicators and their combined predictive probability derived from the binary logistic regression model. Results: 1) The initial hemoglobin (Hb) and hematocrit (Hct) levle were independent influencing factors in the group with red blood cell transfusion volume exceeded Q1 (P<0.05), and the combined predictive probability demostrated by ROC curve analysis was AUC=0.858 (P<0.05). 2) In the group of red blood cell transfusion volume exceeding Q2, the initial Fib, transhulitic acid, human prothrombin complex, trauma category and primary trauma site were independent influencing factors (P<0.05), and the combined predictive probability of ROC curve analysis was AUC=0.966 (P<0.05). 3) Pulse pressure and trauma category were independent influencing factors in the group with red blood cell transfusion volume exceeding Q3 (P<0.05), and ROC curve analysis revealed that combined prediction probability was AUC=0.944 (P<0.05). Conclusion: Early monitoring indicators and the use of coagulation medications, before and after admission in emergency trauma patients show diagnostic value in predicting the amount of red blood cells transfused on the first day of admission. Early warning alerts established through patient monitoring indicators can reduce incidents of untimely blood supply from the blood transfusion department (blood bank) for emergency trauma patients with massive hemorrhage, especially for patients with rare blood types or during blood supply shortage.

Objective:
To investigate the expression and functional role of FK506 binding protein 10 (FKBP10) in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and to provide a research basis for the estimated prognosis and targeted therapy of OSCC.
Methods:
A total of 284 OSCC samples and 19 normal samples were selected from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, and diagnostic analysis was performed to determine mRNA expression. Survival analysis for FKBP10 and OSCC was conducted on a gene expression profile interaction analysis website. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western Blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of FKBP10 in four OSCC cell lines and SAS and SCC9 cells transfected with siRNA. The cell proliferation ability of FKBP10-silenced cells was detected using the CCK8 method, and the cell cycle distribution and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry. Cell migration and invasion ability were detected through wound healing and invasion experiments. The expression changes of total protein and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-serine/threonine kinase (AKT) after FKBP10 silencing were analyzed by proteomics and Western Blot.
Results:
According to the analysis of gene expression levels, the mRNA expression level of FKBP10 in OSCC was significantly higher than that in normal tissues (P < 0.001). In terms of diagnosis, the expression level of FKBP10 has unique diagnostic value for OSCC (P < 0.05). The survival analysis of FKBP10 and OSCC showed that a high expression of FKBP10 led to a decrease in patient survival and poor prognosis (P < 0.05). The expression of FKBP10 mRNA and protein in OSCC cell lines was higher than that in normal oral keratinocytes (P < 0.001). Silencing FKBP10 can reduce the proliferation, invasion, and migration ability of SAS and SCC9 (P < 0.001), and also block their cell cycle in the G0/G1 phase (P < 0.001), with a significant increase in apoptosis (P < 0.05). Protein mass spectrometry and Western blot analysis revealed that FKBP10 silencing significantly downregulated the expression of multiple proteins in the RAP1 signaling pathway, mainly RAP guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1 (RAPGEF1) (P < 0.05) and the phosphorylation of PI3K-AKT proteins (P < 0.05).
Conclusion
FKBP10 is highly expressed in OSCC, leading to poor prognosis for patients. Downregulated FKBP10 expression can inhibit the proliferation, migration, and invasion ability of OSCC cells, hinder cell cycle progression, and promote apoptosis via the RAP1-PI3K-AKT axis. FKBP10 is a potential therapeutic target and prognostic biomarker for OSCC.

Acute Gelsemium poisoning is a systemic disease primarily affecting the central nervous system and respiratory symptoms caused by the ingestion of a substantial amount of Gelsemium within a short period. It manifests as sudden onset and rapid progression, primarily caused by accidental ingestion due to misidentification, and posing significant health risks. The compilation of the Technical Plan for Emergency Health Response to Acute Gelsemium Poisoning describes in detail the specialized practice and technical requirements in the process of handling acute Gelsemium poisoning, including accident investigation and management, laboratory testing and identification, in-hospital treatment, and health monitoring. The guidelines clarify key procedures and requirements such as personal protection, investigation elements, etiology determination, medical rescue, and health education. The key to acute Gelsemium poisoning investigation lies in promptly identifying the toxin through exposure history, clinical manifestations, and sample testing. Because there is no specific antidote for Gelsemium poisoning, immediate removal from exposure, rapid elimination of the toxin, and respiratory monitoring are critical on-site rescue measures. Visual identification of food or herbal materials, followed by laboratory testing to determine Gelsemium alkaloids in samples is a rapid effective screening method. These guidelines offer a scientific, objective, and practical framework to support effective emergency responses to acute Gelsemium poisoning incidences.

Objective To explore the association of diabetes status with the development of tuberculosis (TB) among the community population in Shanghai, and to provide evidence for the formulation of tuberculosis prevention and control strategies. Methods This population-based cohort study was based on Shanghai Suburban Adult Cohort and Biobank (SSACB) in China. The baseline data were acquired by questionnaires, physical examinations and blood biochemistry tests. TB incidence was obtained by matching with TB management information system data. A Cox proportional risk model was established to assess the risk of tuberculosis. Results A total of 36 014 research subjects were included, with an average age of 56.3±11.3 years, of which 14 587 (40.5%) were male. Over 6 years of follow-up, 47 individuals progressed to tuberculosis (incidence rate: 19.8 per 100 000 person-year, 95% CI: 14.6 -26.4). An increased risk of TB was observed in participants with newly diagnosed diabetes compared with those without diabetes (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 2.73; 95% CI, 1.19 - 6.28). Conclusion The risk of tuberculosis in newly diagnosed diabetic patients is significantly increased, and strengthening tuberculosis screening for this population should be considered in practical work.
