Objective To analyze the distribution of platelet antibodies in hospitalized patients and explore the clinical significance of platelet antibody detection. Methods A total of 95 987 hospitalized patient cases from a tertiary hospital in Xi'an from April 1, 2021 to December 31, 2023 were collected. Platelet antibodies were detected by solid-phase agglutination method. Statistical analysis was performed on variables including gender, age, blood type, department, history of blood transfusion, pregnancy history, and disease type. Results Among 95 987 hospitalized patients, the positive rate of platelet antibody detection reached 4.35%. The positive rate of platelet antibodies in female hospitalized patients (5.29%) was higher than that in male patients (3.31%), and the difference was statistically significant (x2=224.124). The positive rate of platelet antibodies in those with pregnancy history (7.92%) was higher than that in those without pregnancy history (4.19%), and the difference was significant (x2=292.773). Similarly, the positive rate of platelet antibodies in those with transfusion history (7.79%) was higher than that in those without transfusion history (3.97%), and the difference was significant (x2=300.209). There was a significant correlation between the positive rate of platelet antibodies and the number of pregnancies (x2=91.061). Conclusion The positive rate of platelet antibodies in 95 987 inpatient cases was 4.35%. The positive rate of platelet antibodies had a close relationship with a history of blood transfusions and pregnancies, and it increased with the number of pregnancies. For patients with multiple transfusion histories and pregnancy histories, screening for platelet antibodies holds significant diagnostic value.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) represents a paradigmatic approach to personalized medicine, developed through the systematic accumulation and refinement of clinical empirical data over more than 2000 years, and now encompasses large-scale electronic medical records (EMR) and experimental molecular data. Artificial intelligence (AI) has demonstrated its utility in medicine through the development of various expert systems (e.g., MYCIN) since the 1970s. With the emergence of deep learning and large language models (LLMs), AI's potential in medicine shows considerable promise. Consequently, the integration of AI and TCM from both clinical and scientific perspectives presents a fundamental and promising research direction. This survey provides an insightful overview of TCM AI research, summarizing related research tasks from three perspectives: systems-level biological mechanism elucidation, real-world clinical evidence inference, and personalized clinical decision support. The review highlights representative AI methodologies alongside their applications in both TCM scientific inquiry and clinical practice. To critically assess the current state of the field, this work identifies major challenges and opportunities that constrain the development of robust research capabilities-particularly in the mechanistic understanding of TCM syndromes and herbal formulations, novel drug discovery, and the delivery of high-quality, patient-centered clinical care. The findings underscore that future advancements in AI-driven TCM research will rely on the development of high-quality, large-scale data repositories; the construction of comprehensive and domain-specific knowledge graphs (KGs); deeper insights into the biological mechanisms underpinning clinical efficacy; rigorous causal inference frameworks; and intelligent, personalized decision support systems.

OBJECTIVE:
To determine whether the glutamatergic neurons in the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (PVT) is involved in the change of consciousness induced by propofol through a combination of behavioral and electroencephalography (EEG) recordings.
METHODS:
Healthy male VGluT2-IRES-Cre mice aged 8-12 weeks were used in this experiment. (1) The glutamatergic neurons in the PVT was selectively damaged, and its effect on propofol anesthesia induction and recovery times as well as the energy of EEG in different frequency bands were observed. (2) Optogenetics was utilized to selectively activate or inhibit glutamatergic neurons in the PVT to assess their influence on anesthesia induction and recovery times under propofol as well as the energy of EEG in different frequency bands.
RESULTS:
(1) Selective ablation of glutamatergic neurons in the PVT significantly delayed recovery from propofol anesthesia with statistical difference as compared with the control group (s: 409.43±117.49 vs. 273.71±51.52, P < 0.05), but had no significant effect on anesthesia induction time. During the recovery phase of propofol, selective ablation of glutamatergic neurons in the PVT exhibited higher α-wave (1-4 Hz) power and reduced β-wave (12-15 Hz) power as compared with the control group. (2) Optogenetic activation of glutamatergic neurons in the PVT significantly prolonged anesthesia induction time under propofol (s: 161.67±29.09 vs. 119.33±18.98, P < 0.05) while significantly shortening the recovery time from propofol anesthesia (s: 208.67±57.19 vs. 288.83±34.52, P < 0.05). During the induction phase of propofol, activation of glutamatergic neurons in PVT reduced α-wave and α-wave (8-12 Hz) power, while during the recovery phase, α-wave power significantly increased as compared with the control group. (3) Optogenetic inhibition of glutamatergic neurons in the PVT delayed recovery from propofol anesthesia (s: 403.50±129.06 vs. 252.83±45.31, P < 0.05), but had no significant effect on induction time. During both the induction phase and recovery phase of propofol, the optogenetic inhibition of glutamatergic neurons in the PVT exhibited increased α-wave power.
CONCLUSION
Glutamatergic neurons in the PVT are involved in the regulation of propofol anesthesia recovery process.

ObjectiveTo study the preventive and therapeutic effects of Baxianxiaoyao decoction medicated bath on pressure injury wound in rats.Methods The research was started from April 2016 to February 2017. The experiment was approved by the animal experimental ethics committee and was finished in the basic medical laboratory of Nagano University of Nursing in Japan. A total of 24 rats were divided into 3 groups averagely,and there were the control group(group A),the tap-water bath group(group B) and the traditional Chinese medicine bath group(group C). Group B rats used tap-water bath,and group C rats used traditional Chinese medicine bath,while the rats in group A did not bath. After bathing for 2 weeks,the pressure injury model was made on the rats' skin,and then the average of ulcer area and the maximum- minimum concentration difference were calculated by Image-J ;besides the healing rate,wound center temperature,skin moisture were compared among the three groups.Results For the 12 h pressure injury area after three groups rats model established,the group A was(137.060±18.258) mm2,Group B(123.310±14.969) mm2,group C (92.520±11.159) mm2(F=73.235,P<0.05);Image-J measures the average area of pressure injury picture among three groups and maximum-minimum concentration difference of picture(F=8.13,4.91;P<0.01).The rate of wound healing was statistically difference after the PI model at 12 hours,4 days,8 days,12 days (F=8.058, 12.024,17.360,26.006;P<0.05);however,the skin moisture had no statistical significance (P>0.05). Conclusions Baxianxiaoyao Decoction medicated bath is an effective way to prevent and treat pressure injury wound,and it can promote wound healing.
