Medical institutions, with their clinical practice foundation and abundant human use experience data, have become important carriers for the inheritance and innovation of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) and the "cradles" of the preparation of new TCM. To effectively promote the transformation of new TCM originating from the TCM clinical practice in medical institutions and establish an effective evaluation index system for the transformation of new TCM conforming to the characteristics of TCM, consensus experts adopted the literature research, questionnaire survey, Delphi method, etc. By focusing on the policy and technical evaluation of new TCM originating from the TCM clinical practice in medical institutions, a comprehensive evaluation from the dimensions of drug safety, efficacy, feasibility, and characteristic advantages was conducted, thus forming a comprehensive evaluation system with four primary indicators and 37 secondary indicators. The expert consensus reached aims to encourage medical institutions at all levels to continuously improve the high-quality research and development and transformation of new TCM originating from the TCM clinical practice in medical institutions and targeted at clinical needs, so as to provide a decision-making basis for the preparation, selection, cultivation, and transformation of new TCM for medical institutions, improve the development efficiency of new TCM, and precisely respond to the public medication needs.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Shexiang Tongxin Dropping Pill (STDP) in treating stable angina patients with phlegm-heat and blood-stasis syndrome by exercise duration and metabolic equivalents. METHODS: This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial enrolled stable angina patients with phlegm-heat and blood-stasis syndrome from 22 hospitals. They were randomized 1:1 to STDP (35 mg/pill, 6 pills per day) or placebo for 56 days. The primary outcome was the exercise duration and metabolic equivalents (METs) assessed by the standard Bruce exercise treadmill test after 56 days of treatment. The secondary outcomes included the total angina symptom score, Chinese medicine (CM) symptom scores, Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) scores, changes in ST-T on electrocardiogram and adverse events (AEs). RESULTS: This trial enrolled 309 patients, including 155 and 154 in the STDP and placebo groups, respectively. STDP significantly prolonged exercise duration with an increase of 51.0 s, compared to a decrease of 12.0 s with placebo (change rate: -11.1% vs. 3.2%, P<0.01). The increase in METs was significantly greater in the STDP group than in the placebo group (change: -0.4 vs. 0.0, change rate: -5.0% vs. 0.0%, P<0.01). The improvement of total angina symptom scores (25.0% vs. 0.0%), CM symptom scores (38.7% vs. 11.8%), reduction of nitroglycerin consumption (100.0% vs. 11.3%), and all domains of SAQ, were significantly greater with STDP than placebo (all P<0.01). The changes in Q-T intervals at 28 and 56 days from baseline were similar between the two groups (both P>0.05). Twenty-five participants (16.3%) with STDP and 16 (10.5%) with placebo experienced AEs (P=0.131), with no serious AEs observed. CONCLUSION STDP could improve exercise tolerance in patients with stable angina and phlegm-heat and blood stasis syndrome, with a favorable safety profile. (Registration No. ChiCTR-IPR-15006020).

[Objective] To compare next generation sequencing (NGS) library construction technology between probe hybridization capture and amplicon methods, and analyze the influencing factors of HLA genotyping resolution level and its prospects in clinical applications. [Methods] A total of 207 clinical samples with known typing results and samples from the proficiency testing plan were selected. The conformity rate of HLA genotyping results, allele coverage and typing data analysis indicators were confirmed, and the effects of two library construction methods on the level of HLA genotyping discrimination were compared. [Results] The concordance rate of 207 samples with the feedback results of PT or prior well-characterized HLA genotypes was 100%. Among them, 91 samples were captured using hybridization probe capture method. Compared with the original amplicon method, the hybridization probe capture method can distinguish the alleles of DRB1 and DPB1 that cannot be determined in 13 samples. The allelic imbalance of DRB1, DPA1, and DQB1 loci in 6 samples was resolved. Three samples were found to have missed detection of alleles at the DQA1 and DQB1 loci. [Conclusion] The performance indicators of hybridization probe capture and amplicon performance confirmation meet the requirements of clinical detection of HLA genotyping, which provides an experimental method and basis for clinical application.

A highly efficient oxidase-mimetic silver phosphate/nickel hydroxystannate(Ag3PO4/NiSn(OH)6)composite was synthesized via a precipitation method using nickel hydroxystannate(NiSn(OH)6)as the support.The abundant hydroxyl groups(—OH)on NiSn(OH)6 not only provided nucleation sites for Ag3PO4 nanoparticles but also improved their dispersion and overall material stability.Based on oxidase-like activity of Ag3PO4/NiSn(OH)6 and inhibitory effect of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate(SDBS)on this catalytic activity,a novel colorimetric sensing method for SDBS detection was developed.Under optimized experimental conditions,the method exhibited a linear range of 3.69-42.7 μmol/L,with a detection limit of 0.135 μmol/L(S/N=3).The regression equation was ΔA652=0.01125C(μmol/L)+0.1498,with a correlation coefficient(R2)of 0.992.Practical application in dishwashing liquid analysis achieved satisfactory recoveries of 96.9%-106.4%,demonstrating the method's reliability for real sample detection.

Objective:To establish a linkage prediction model for human leukocyte antigen (HLA) DPA1-DPB1 and validate it by using clinical data and follow-up data from unrelated allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation donors and recipients, and to explore the clinical application value of the prediction model in transplantation prognosis.Methods:This is a retrospective study. Leveraging the artificial neural network algorithm of NetMHCⅡpan and the DPA1-DPB1 haplotype linkage database of the Chinese population established in our previous research, and incorporating the amino acid FASTA data of DPA1-DPB1 of all known sequences newly published by the Latest International Immunogenetics/Human Leukocyte Antigens, 47 DPA1-DPB1 linkage models were established. Employing next-generation sequencing technology based on the hybridization capture library construction method, HLA genotyping tests for HLA-A, -B, -C, DRB1, DQB1, DQA1, DRB3/4/5, DPB1, and DPA1 (9 loci) were performed on 250 donor-recipients pairs who underwent unrelated-donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the Department of Hematology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University between January 2016 and September 2021. HLA typing data and clinical information of transplant donors and recipients were retrospectively analyzed to assess and predict the impact of permissive and non-permissive linkage mismatches of DPA1-DPB1 on transplantation prognosis. The Kaplan-Meier method with the log-rank test was applied to compare the survival curves of overall survival (OS) rates between different groups. Additionally, a competing risks model was utilized to compare the cumulative incidence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ acute graft-versus-host disease and non-relapse mortality (NRM) across groups. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was employed to compare the predictive performance of the established prediction model with that of the T-cell epitope (TCE) model.Results:According to the different hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties of amino acids, the DPA1-DPB1 linkage model is categorized into types Ⅰ-Ⅳ: type I consists of 6 hydrophobic types at P1-P8 plus hydrophilic type at P9; type Ⅱ includes 17 hydrophobic types; type Ⅲ comprises 9 amphiphilic types; and type Ⅳ consists of 15 hydrophilic types. According to the prediction model, DPA1-matched and DPB1-mismatched donor-recipient cases were classed into P1-matched or P1-mismatched groups. Compared with fully matched DPA1 and DPB1 cases, P1-mismatched patients had a 2-year OS rate of 75% (12/16) versus 96.2%(25/26) (χ2=4.13, P=0.04), and a NRM rate of 4/16 versus 0 (χ2=7.05, P<0.01). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the 2-year OS and NRM rates compared to DPA1 and DPB1 cases ( P>0.05). The prediction model established in this study demonstrated a larger area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for predicting the 2-year OS rate compared with the DPB1 TCE model ( Z=0.71, P=0.48). In donor-recipient cases where both DPA1 and DPB1 were mismatched, the 2-year OS rates decreased and the NRM increased in both P1-matched and P1-mismatched cases compared with fully matched DPA1 and DPB1. Moreover, P1-mismatched patients had a worse prognosis compared to P1-matched patients. Conclusion:The DPA1-DPB1 linkage prediction model established based on high-throughput next-generation sequencing technology can be used to predict the impact of HLA-DP mismatches on OS and NRM in transplantation, and the prediction performance is superior to the TCE model.
