Psychological factors have become significant contributors to the onset and progression of insomnia. This article explored the treatment of insomnia from the perspective of “liver governs wei qi （defensive qi）”. The concept of “liver governs wei qi （defensive qi）” is summarized in three aspects， firstly， the liver assists the spleen and stomach in transformation and transportation， governing the generation of wei qi； secondly， the liver aids lung qi diffusion and dispersion， governing the distribution of wei qi； thirdly， the liver regulates circadian rhythms， governing the circulation of wei qi. It is proposed that the clinical treatment of insomnia should focus on the following methods： for regulating the liver to harmonize the five viscera， and facilitate the circulation of wei qi， medicinals entering the liver channel include Chaihu （Bupleuri radix）， Baishao （Paeoniae Radix Alba）， Zhizi （Gardeniae Fructus）， and Suanzaoren （Ziziphi Spinosae Semen） could be commonly used； for nourishing the liver， the treatment should align with the day-night rhythm， and herbs such as Baihe （Lilium）， Hehuan （Albizia julibrissin）， and Yejiaoteng （Polygoni multiflori caulis） are commonly used； for soothing the liver and address both mental and physical health to calm wei qi， treatment should advocate verbal counseling， psychological regulation， and health education. Ultimately， this treatment approach can free liver qi to flow， soothe qi movement， restore the motion of wei qi， regulate during day and night， balance yin and yang， and resolve insomnia effectively.

Objective:To evaluate the application value of the Supply-Processing-Distribution(SPD)supply chain mode in the refined management for medical consumables in hospital on the basis of SPD supply chain mode.Methods:An integrated efficiency index system was constructed based on SPD,and the Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP)and Entropy Method were used to determine index weights by combined weighting.Medical consumables were classified and managed according to the index weight values.A total of 63,461 types of medical consumables(included low-value medical consumables and high-value medical consumables)that was used in clinical practice at Beijing Anzhen Hospital,Capital Medical University from January to June 2021 and January to June 2023 were selected.In them,the 54,632 types of medical consumables that were used between January and June 2021 were managed by adopting conventional supply chain mode,while 56,471 types of medical consumables that were used(included 47,642 types of medical consumables that were managed by conventional supply chain made at the first stage,and 8,829 types of new medical consumables)between January and June 2023 were managed by adopting the SPD supply chain mode.The inventory amount,inventory quantity,loss rate,and return or change rate of medical consumables of the two management modes were compared.A self-designed satisfaction questionnaire was used to evaluate the satisfaction of medical staffs,who used these medical consumables,for the two kinds of management modes.Results:The inventory amount of low-value medical consumables that were managed by the SPD supply chain mode was(1,424.09±75.68)million CNY,which was lower than(2,290.79±215.93)million CNY of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with a statistically significant difference(t=8.85,P<0.05).The inventory amount of high-value medical consumables that were managed by the SPD supply chain mode was 0,which was lower than(7,692.32±360.53)million CNY of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with a statistically significant difference(Z=-2.201,P<0.05).The inventory quantities of both low-value and high-value medical consumables of adopting SPD supply chain mode were significantly lower than those of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with statistically significant differences(t=10.443,11.225,P<0.05).The average loss rates of both low-value and high-value medical consumables of adopting SPD supply chain mode were significantly lower than those of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with statistically significant differences(Z=-2.207,-2.201,P<0.05).The average return or change rates of both low-value and high-value medical consumables of adopting SPD supply chain mode were significantly lower than those of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with statistically significant differences(t=14.685,8.716,P<0.01).The satisfaction scores of medical staffs from different departments for medical consumables of adopting the SPD supply chain mode were higher than those of adopting conventional supply chain mode,with a statistically significant difference(t=7.674,P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of the SPD supply chain mode for medical consumables in hospital can reduce the inventory amount,inventory quantity,loss rate,and return or change rate of medical consumables,and improve the satisfaction of medical staffs.

Thoracolumbar spine fracture often leads to severe pain, functional impairments, and neurological deficits, for which open reduction and internal fixation can effectively restore the spinal structural stability. Open decompression and reduction with internal fixation can help relieve spinal cord compression and improve spinal function in cases of concomitant cord injury. Although spinal stability can be restored through surgery, patients often face chronic pain and functional impairments postoperatively. A postoperative rehabilitation program is critical in optimizing therapeutic outcomes, reducing complications, and minimizing the risk of secondary injuries. However, current rehabilitation methods, such as physical therapy, functional training, and pain management, are confronted with problems in clinical practice, including significant variation in efficacy, poor patient adherence, and prolonged rehabilitation period. There is an urgent need for a unified rehabilitation strategy to address these problems. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Physicians Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Spine Health Professional Committee of the Chinese Human Health Technology Promotion Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate Evidence-based guidelines for rehabilitation treatment after internal fixation of thoracolumbar spine fracture in adults ( version 2025) by integrating evidences from clinical researches and advanced rehabilitation concepts at home and abroad. A total number of 14 recommendations concerning the rehabilitation treatment with multimodal analgesia, psychological intervention, deep vein thrombosis prevention, core muscle and extremity exercise, appropriate use of braces, early weight-bearing, device-aided rehabilitation exercise, neuroregulatory therapy, rehabilitation team were put forward, aiming to standardize the post-operative rehabilitation process following internal fixation, promote the functional recovery, and enhance patients′ quality of life.

Acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture (ASOTLF) can lead to chronic low back pain, kyphosis deformity, pulmonary dysfunction, loss of mobility, and even life-threatening complications. Vertebral augmentation is currently the mainstream treatment method for this condition. In 2019, the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma and the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association collaboratively led the development of Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation for acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Six years later, with advances in clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques as well as accumulating evidence in related fields, the 2019 guideline requires updating. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, the Spinal Health Professional Committee of China Human Health Science and Technology Promotion Association, and the Minimally Invasive Orthopedics Professional Committee of Shaanxi Medical Doctor Association have organized experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation of acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025) , based on the latest evidence-based medical researches. This guideline incorporates 3 recommendations retained from the 2019 version with updated strength of evidence, along with 12 new recommendations. It provides recommendations from six aspects of diagnosis, pain management, treatment option selection, prevention of postoperative complications, anti-osteoporosis therapy, and postoperative rehabilitation, aiming to provide a reference for standard treatment of vertebral augmentation for ASOTLF in hospitals at all levels.

Metastasis remains the primary cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) represent critical targets for metastasis prevention and treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine may prevent lung cancer metastasis through long-term intervention in CTC activity. Tiao-Shen-Zhi-Ai Formular (TSZAF) represents a Chinese medicine compound prescription utilized clinically for lung cancer treatment. This study combined three principal active ingredients from TSZAF into a novel TSZAF monomer combination (TSZAF mc) to investigate its anti-metastatic effects and mechanisms. TSZAF mc demonstrated significant inhibition of proliferation, migration, and invasion in CTC-TJH-01 and LLC cells, while inducing cellular apoptosis in vitro. Moreover, TSZAF mc substantially inhibited LLC cell growth and metastasis in vivo. Mechanistically, TAZSF mc significantly suppressed the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and CXCL5 expression in lung cancer cells and tissues. Additionally, TAZSF mc notably reduced neutrophil infiltration in metastatic lesions. These findings indicate that TSZAF mc inhibits lung cancer growth and metastasis by suppressing the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and reducing CXCL5 secretion, thereby decreasing neutrophil recruitment and infiltration. TSZAF mc demonstrates potential as an effective therapeutic agent for lung cancer metastasis.
