Green prescription is a written prescription aimed at improving health by promoting physical activity and improving diet, with advantages such as high cost-effectiveness, strong feasibility, and minimal harm to patients. The theory of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) green prescription integrates the health philosophy of "following rule of yin and yang, and adjusting ways to cultivating health", the exercise philosophy of balancing yin-yang and the five elements, and the dietary philosophy of moderation and balance, which embody core TCM concepts such as treating disease before its onset and harmony between humans and nature. It has also developed traditional exercise practices like Tai Chi, Baduanjin, Wuqinxi, Yi-Gin-Ching, and Qigong, as well as dietary adjustments like medicated diet and herbal wines. However, it is believed that the TCM green prescription currently suffers from insufficient evidence-based research, low patient awareness and acceptance, and weak basic research. Based on this, it is proposed that large-sample clinical trials should be conducted in the future to improve the quality of evidence-based medicine, basic research can be carried out with the help of artificial intelligence and other methods in research design, the hospital information system (HIS) can be used for control at the implementation level, and publicity and patient education can be strengthened through the new media, so as to promote the development and application of the TCM green prescriptions in the field of global health treatment.

Dysregulation of immune response is currently recognized as one of the important pathological factors in ulcerative colitis (UC). Based on the confirmation that the Sini San (SNS) can significantly improve the colon inflammation induced by dextran sulfate sodium sulfate (DSS) in mice, the present work systematically studied the xenobiotics in the colon and mesenteric lymph nodes, spleen, and thymus of UC mice after administration of SNS by high-performance liquid chromatography-ion trap time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-IT-TOF-MS). The results showed that, in addition to the colon, some components and their metabolites in SNS could be distributed in immune tissues, and it was found that the quality of relatively low-abundance and weakly responsive components such as saikosaponin a, paeoniflorin, and glycyrrhizic acid had the characteristics of efficient transmission to the colon and lymphoid organs. These components were very likely to be the source of pharmacodynamic substances of SNS. The findings of this study lay a foundation for the study of the efficacy and molecular mechanism of the components against ulcerative colitis, and also provide a scientific basis for the rational clinical application of SNS, which is expected to promote the secondary development of its preparations.

【Objective】 To establish an effective quality monitoring indicator system for blood quality control in blood banks, in order to analyze the quality control indicators for blood collection and supply, and evaluate blood quality control process, thus promoting continuous improvement and standardizing management of blood quality control in blood banks. 【Methods】 A quality monitoring indicator system covering the whole process of blood collection and supply, including blood donation services, component preparation, blood testing, blood supply and quality control was established. The Questionnaire of Quality Monitoring Indicators for Blood Collection and Supply Process was distributed to 17 blood banks in Shandong, which clarified the definition and calculation formula of indicators. The quality monitoring indicator data from January to December 2022 in each blood bank were collected, and 20 quality control indicators data were analyzed by SPSS25.0 software. 【Results】 The average pass rate of key equipment monitoring, environment monitoring, key material monitoring, and blood testing item monitoring of 17 blood banks were 99.47%, 99.51%, 99.95% and 98.99%, respectively. Significant difference was noticed in the pass rate of environment monitoring among blood banks of varied scales(P<0.05), and the Pearson correlation coefficient (r) between the total number of blood quality testing items and the total amount of blood component preparation was 0.645 (P<0.05). The average discarding rates of blood testing or non-blood testing were 1.14% and 3.36% respectively, showing significant difference among blood banks of varied scales (P<0.05). The average discarding rate of lipemic blood was 3.07%, which had a positive correlation with the discarding rate of non testing (r=0.981 3, P<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in the discarding rate of lipemic blood between blood banks with lipemic blood control measures and those without (P<0.05). The average discarding rate of abnormal color, non-standard volume, blood bag damage, hemolysis, blood protein precipitation and blood clotting were 0.20%, 0.14%, 0.06%, 0.06%, 0.02% and 0.02% respectively, showing statistically significant differences among large, medium and small blood banks(P<0.05).The average discarding rates of expired blood, other factors, confidential unit exclusion and unqualified samples were 0.02%, 0.05%, 0.003% and 0.004%, respectively. The discarding rate of blood with air bubbles was 0.015%, while that of blood with foreign body and unqualified label were 0. 【Conclusion】 The quality control indicator system of blood banks in Shandong can monitor weak points in process management, with good applicability, feasibility, and effectiveness. It is conducive to evaluate different blood banks, continuously improve the quality control level of blood collection and supply, promote the homogenization and standardization of blood quality management, and lay the foundation for comprehensive evaluation of blood banks in Shandong.

ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of Tongfeng Decoction (痛风汤) for preventing and treating acute gouty arthritis. MethodsSixty Wistar male rats were divided into normal group, model group, colchicine group and low-, medium- and high-dose Tongfeng Decoction groups according to the random number table, 10 rats in each group. Tongfeng Decoction of 11.34, 22.68 and 45.36 g/kg were given by gavage to low-, medium- and high-dose Tongfeng Decoction groups, colchicine 3.15×10-4 g/(kg·d) to the colchicine group, and normal saline 10 ml/(kg·d) to the normal group and model group respectively for 7 consecutive days. After 1 hour of gavage on day 5, rats in all groups except the normal group were modelled as acute gouty arthritis in the ankle joint of the right hind limb with the modified Coderre's method; rats in the normal group were injected with 0.2 ml of normal saline at the same location. The swelling degree of the ankle joint was measured before modelling and after 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h of modelling, respectively. HE staining was used to observe the histopathological and morphological changes in the synovial tissue of the ankle joint; immunoblotting and RT-qPCR were used to detect NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (ASC), cysteine aspartate protease 1 (Caspase-1), and interleukin 1β (IL-1β) protein and mRNA expression levels in ankle synovial tissues, respectively; immunohistochemistry was used to detect the positive expression of Caspase-1 and IL-1β in ankle synovial tissues; ELISA was used to detect the tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), IL-1β, and interleukin in serum; immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in the synovial tissues of the ankle joints. ResultsCompared with the normal group, rats in the model group showed elevated joint swelling at all time points, significantly increased inflammatory cell infiltration and the number of synovial cell layers in the synovial tissues of the ankle joints, elevated NLRP3, Caspase-1, ASC and IL-1β protein and mRNA expression, elevated positive expression of Caspase-1 and IL-1β, increased formation of NETs, and elevation of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β in serum (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, there was an improvement in synovial cell proliferation and inflammatory cell infiltration of the ankle joint in the colchicine group, high- and medium-dose Tongfeng Decoction groups. In the colchicine group and the high-, medium- and low-dose Tongfeng Decoction groups, the degree of joint swelling, positive expression of Caspase-1, IL-1β and formation of NETs in the synovial tissue of the ankle joint, and TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in serum reduced 24 h and 48 h after modelling; in colchicine group and high-dose Tongfeng Decoction group, NLRP3, ASC, Caspase-1, IL-1β protein and mRNA expression in the synovial tissues of ankle joints all reduced (P<0.05). The colchicine group and high-dose Tongfeng Decoction group were superior to the low-dose Tongfeng Decoction group in reducing ASC, Caspase-1, IL-1β protein and mRNA expression in the ankle synovial tissues, the positive expression of Caspase-1, as well as TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β level in serum (P<0.05). ConclusionTongfeng Decoction showed effectiveness for the prevention and treatment of acute gouty arthritis, and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of the assembly and activation of NLRP3 inflammatory vesicles in ankle synovial tissues, the inhibition of the release of inflammatory factors, and the formation of NETs.
