The classic formula Fangji Fulingtang is from ZHANG Zhongjing's Synopsis of the Golden Chamber in the Eastern Han dynasty. It is composed of Stephaniae Tetrandrae Radix， Astragali Radix， Cinnamomi Ramulus， Poria， and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， with the effects of reinforcing Qi and invigorating spleen， warming Yang and promoting urination. By a review of ancient medical books， this paper summarizes the composition， original plants， processing， dosage， decocting methods， indications and other key information of Fangji Fulingtang， aiming to provide a literature basis for the research， development， and clinical application of preparations based on this formula. Synonyms of Fangji Fulingtang exist in ancient medical books， while the formula composition in the Synopsis of the Golden Chamber is more widespread and far-reaching. In this formula， Stephaniae Tetrandrae Radix， Astragali Radix， Cinnamomi Ramulus， Poria， and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma are the dried root of Stephania tetrandra， the dried root of Astragalus embranaceus var. mongholicus， the dried shoot of Cinnamomum cassia， the dried sclerotium of Poria cocos， and the dried root and rhizome of Glycyrrhiza uralensis， respectively. Fangji Fulingtang is mainly produced into powder， with the dosage and decocting method used in the past dynasties basically following the original formula. Each bag is composed of Stephaniae Tetrandrae Radix 13.80 g， Astragali Radix 13.80 g， Cinnamomi Ramulus 13.80 g， Poria 27.60 g， and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma 9.20 g. The raw materials are purified， decocted in water from 1 200 mL to 400 mL， and the decoction should be taken warm， 3 times a day. Fangji Fulingtang was originally designed for treating skin edema， and then it was used to treat impediment in the Qing dynasty. In modern times， it is mostly used to treat musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases and circulatory system diseases， demonstrating definite effects on various types of edema and heart failure. This paper clarifies the inheritance of Fangji Fulingtang and reveals its key information （attached to the end of this paper）， aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the development of preparations based on this formula.

Background: s/Aims: Non-invasive models stratifying clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) are limited. Herein, we developed a new non-invasive model for predicting CSPH in patients with compensated cirrhosis and investigated whether carvedilol can prevent hepatic decompensation in patients with high-risk CSPH stratified using the new model. Methods: Non-invasive risk factors of CSPH were identified via systematic review and meta-analysis of studies involving patients with hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). A new non-invasive model was validated for various performance aspects in three cohorts, i.e., a multicenter HVPG cohort, a follow-up cohort, and a carvediloltreating cohort. Results: In the meta-analysis with six studies (n=819), liver stiffness measurement and platelet count were identified as independent risk factors for CSPH and were used to develop the new “CSPH risk” model. In the HVPG cohort (n=151), the new model accurately predicted CSPH with cutoff values of 0 and –0.68 for ruling in and out CSPH, respectively. In the follow-up cohort (n=1,102), the cumulative incidences of decompensation events significantly differed using the cutoff values of <–0.68 (low-risk), –0.68 to 0 (medium-risk), and >0 (high-risk). In the carvediloltreated cohort, patients with high-risk CSPH treated with carvedilol (n=81) had lower rates of decompensation events than non-selective beta-blockers untreated patients with high-risk CSPH (n=613 before propensity score matching [PSM], n=162 after PSM). Conclusions Treatment with carvedilol significantly reduces the risk of hepatic decompensation in patients with high-risk CSPH stratified by the new model.

Background::Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has potential risks for both clinically worsening pulmonary hypertension (PH) and increasing mortality. However, the data regarding the protective role of vaccination in this population are still lacking. This study aimed to assess the safety of approved vaccination for patients with PH.Methods::In this national prospective cohort study, patients diagnosed with PH (World Health Organization [WHO] groups 1 and 4) were enrolled from October 2021 to April 2022. The primary outcome was the composite of PH-related major adverse events. We used an inverse probability weighting (IPW) approach to control for possible confounding factors in the baseline characteristics of patients.Results::In total, 706 patients with PH participated in this study (mean age, 40.3 years; mean duration after diagnosis of PH, 8.2 years). All patients received standardized treatment for PH in accordance with guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of PH in China. Among them, 278 patients did not receive vaccination, whereas 428 patients completed the vaccination series. None of the participants were infected with COVID-19 during our study period. Overall, 398 patients received inactivated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine, whereas 30 received recombinant protein subunit vaccine. After adjusting for baseline covariates using the IPW approach, the odds of any adverse events due to PH in the vaccinated group did not statistically significantly increase (27/428 [6.3%] vs. 24/278 [8.6%], odds ratio = 0.72, P = 0.302). Approximately half of the vaccinated patients reported at least one post-vaccination side effects, most of which were mild, including pain at the injection site (159/428, 37.1%), fever (11/428, 2.6%), and fatigue (26/428, 6.1%). Conclusions::COVID-19 vaccination did not significantly augment the PH-related major adverse events for patients with WHO groups 1 and 4 PH, although there were some tolerable side effects. A large-scale randomized controlled trial is warranted to confirm this finding. The final approval of the COVID-19 vaccination for patients with PH as a public health strategy is promising.

Objective To explore the effect of cardiac shock wave therapy(CSWT)on ST deviation of electrocardiogram and myocardial perfusion imaging in coronary artery disease(CAD)patients.Methods CAD patients who received CSWT in Cardiology Department of Beijing Hospital from December 2016 to August 2022 were enrolled.Three months of CSWT were conducted with a total of 9 times shock wave treatment.Clinical data,myocardial perfusion imaging data and stress electrocardiogram data were collected.Myocardial perfusion score,electrocardiographic data were compared before and after CSWT.Results A total of 55 patients were finally enrolled.There were 43 male and 12 female patients with an average age of(67.45±8.96)years old.ST deviation on 12 leads of electrocardiogram did not show significant difference before and after CSWT.Myocardial perfusion imaging showed global stress perfusion score(P=0.031)and reverse perfusion score(P=0.024).Global rest ischemia score reduced after CSWT(P=0.034).Target stress perfusion score(P=0.002),target reverse perfusion score(P=0.002),target reverse ischemic area(P=0.001)were improved after CSWT.Conclusions CSWT may not influence ST deviation of electrocardiogram,but may improve myocardial ischemia in CAD patients,

Objective:To compare the effectiveness of the Cancer Fatigue Scale (CFS) and the Revised Piper Fatigue Scale (PFS-R) in screening cancer-related fatigue (CRF) in lung cancer patients with chemotherapy.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. From June 2022 to March 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 162 lung cancer patients who underwent chemotherapy in the Oncology Department of Jiangsu Cancer Hospital as the study subject. CFS and PFS-R were used for CRF screening, using the diagnostic criteria proposed in the Clinical Practice Guidelines for Cancer-related Fatigue in China as the gold standard. The area under the receiver operating characteristic ( AUC), sensitivity, specificity, and Youden index of the two screening tools were compared. Results:The incidence of CRF in lung cancer chemotherapy patients was 61.1% (99/162). According to the presence of CRF, the patients were divided into CRF group ( n=99) and non-CRF group ( n=63). The CFS score and PFS-R score of patients in the CRF group were higher than those in the non-CRF group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The AUC of CFS was 0.840 with an optimal cutoff value of 2.470, and the sensitivity, specificity, and Youden index were 0.758, 0.873, and 0.631, respectively. The AUC of PFS-R was 0.918 with an optimal cutoff value of 4.500, and the sensitivity, specificity, and Youden index were 0.899, 0.937, and 0.836, respectively. The AUC of PFS-R was higher than that of CFS, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=2.232, P<0.05) . Conclusions:Compared with CFS, PFS-R has a better evaluation effect and is more suitable as a screening tool for CRF in lung cancer patients with chemotherapy.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)infection after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)and its impact on survival.Methods:The clinical data of 347 patients who underwent their first allo-HSCT in our hospital from January 2014 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into EBV(n=114)and Non-EBV(n=233)groups according to whether they were infected with EBV.The incidence of EBV infection after allo-HSCT was calculated,and the risk factors of EBV infection were analyzed.Results:A total of 114(32.8％)patients presented EBV infection(all peripheral blood EBV-DNA were positive).EBV infection occurred in 88 patients within 100 days after transplantation,which accounted for 77.2％of all patients with EBV infection.5 cases(1.44％)were confirmed as post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder(PTLD).The median onset time of patients was 57(7-486)days after transplantation.Multivariate analysis showed that the use of ATG/ATG-F,occurrence of CMV viremia,and grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ aGVHD were risk factors for EBV infection.Furthermore,compared to BUCY,the use of intensified preconditioning regimens containing FA/CA was significantly increased the risk of EBV infection.Conclusion:EBV infection is a common complication after allo-HSCT.Intensified preconditioning regimens,use of ATG/ATG-F,CMV viremia and grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ aGVHD increase the risk of EBV infection after allo-HSCT.

Objective:To compare the motivated forgetting ability between adolescents with depression and normal adolescents and to explore the relationship of this ability with childhood trauma and symptoms of depression.Methods:Totally 141 adolescents diagnosed with depression according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition(DSM-5),and 42 normal controls participated in the study.The directed forgetting(DF)task was employed,using emotional images as memory stimuli,to compare the recognition per-formance between the two groups.The presence of the DF effect was identified when the recognition score under the"to-be-remembered"condition was significantly higher than the"to-be-forgotten"condition.The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire Short Form(CTQ-SF)and Beck Depression Inventory-Ⅱ(BDI-Ⅱ)were utilized to assess the severi-ty of participants'childhood trauma and depression symptoms.Results:Unlike the control group,the adolescents with depression only exhibited the DF effect with positive stimuli(P＜0.001).In the depression group,the DF effect value for negative stimuli partially mediated the relationship between CTQ-SF scores and BDI-Ⅱ scores(effect size=0.10,95％confidence interval 0.05-0.17,accounting for 21.3％of the total effect).Conclusion:The motivated forgetting ability is partially impaired in adolescents with depression.The ability,especially regarding negative memories,plays a partial mediating role between childhood trauma and depressive symptoms in adolescents with depression.
