ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the methodological quality and measurement properties of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome efficacy evaluation scales, and to provide evidence-based references for selecting high-quality assessment tools in TCM clinical practice. MethodsChina National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data, VIP Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science were searched from inception to April 2, 2025, for studies evaluating the measurement properties of TCM syndrome efficacy evaluation scales. Data were extracted, and the methodological quality and measurement properties of the included scales were assessed according to the consensus-based standards for the selection of health measurement instruments (COSMIN). Recommendation levels were formulated based on the grading of evidence. ResultsA total of 46 studies were included, involving 22 generic syndrome efficacy evaluation scales and 24 disease-specific syndrome efficacy evaluation scales. None of the scales reported cross-cultural validity or measurement error. According to the recommendation grades, 2 scales met Grade A recommendations and are suggested for clinical use; 38 scales were classified as Grade B, indicating potential applicability but requiring further validation; and 6 scales were classified as Grade C, suggesting the need for further refinement. ConclusionExisting TCM syndrome efficacy evaluation scales exhibit substantial variability in methodological quality, incomplete reporting of measurement properties, and insufficient attention to scale revision. Future efforts should emphasize standardized design in the development of TCM syndrome scales, strengthen validation procedures for key measurement properties, and prioritize dynamic revision of scales, thereby providing high-quality tools to support the precise evaluation of syndrome efficacy.

Objective To investigate the training expectations and training strategies of orthopedic clinical specialist nurses (OCSN).Methods Totally 5 020 orthopedic nurses from 342 hospitals from 30 provinces and cities were selected bv convenience sampling.Participants were investigated hy WeChat platform with self-designed questionnaire.Results A total of 4 982 effective questionnaires were collected.Among investigated nurses,13.7% of them received orthopedic specialist nurses training;91.4% believed that training should be carried out.Qualifications should be:college degree and above,senior nurse and above,at least 3 ~5 years of nursing experience,1~3 years of nursing experience in orthopedic department.For curriculum,public courses expected to be arranged were communieation skills,nursing teaching,nursing management,and nursing research;expected professional courses were functional exercises,pain management,extremity injury nursing,common treatment techniques in orthopedic department,traction nursing,and position nursing.It was suggested that training was divided into subspecialties and off-duty;classroom teaching,teaching rounds,case discussion and experience exchange were expected training methods;"theory-practice-theory-practice" was most preferable traiuing mode.The preferred teachers were orthopedic doctors,orthopedic head nurses,orthopedic specialist nurses,and senior orthopedic nurses.The length of training was expected to be three months,time for clinical practice should be greater than or equal to theoretical teaching,and the practice bases should be tertiary hospitals.Evaluation should be performed before completion,recertification could be later than completion,and the interval time of recertification should be within 5 years.Conclusion Training needs of orthopedic nurses for OCSN are strong.Training expectations(contents,length,modes and teachers) of orthopedic nurses should be considered when designing systematic training program on OCSN.

Objective:
To investigate the efficacy and safety of IA regimen which contains idarubicin (IDA) 8 mg/m2, 10 mg/m2 or 12 mg/m2 as induction chemotherapy for adult patients with de-novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) .
Methods:
A total of 1 215 newly diagnosed adult AML patients, ranging from May 2011 to March 2015 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and other 36 clinical blood centers in China were enrolled in the multicenter, single-blind, non-randomized, clinical controlled study. To compare the response rate of complete remission (CR) , adverse events between different dose idarubicin combined with cytarabine (100 mg/m2) as induction chemotherapy in newly diagnosed patients of adult AML.
Results:
Of 1 207 evaluable AML patients were assigned to this analysis of CR rate. The CR rates of IDA 8 mg/m2 group, IDA 10 mg/m2 group and IDA 12 mg/m2 group were 73.6% (215/292) , 84.1% (662/787) and 86.7% (111/128) , respectively (
