Menstrual migraine is a specific subtype of migraine unique to women,closely related to the menstrual cycle,characterized by periodic and intractable headaches,often accompanied by nausea,vomiting or photophobia and phonophobia,which seriously affects life and has a high degree of disability.Its pathogenesis is complex,involving multi-dimensional regulation such as estrogen fluctuations,neurovascular responses and genetic and environmental factors,but the specific mechanism has not been fully clarified.In recent years,with the increasing social attention to women's health,the clinical research demand for menstrual migraine has become increasingly urgent.Currently,modern medicine can alleviate symptoms through acute drug intervention(such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs,triptans)and preventive treatment(such as beta-blockers,CGRP antagonists),but there are problems such as drug dependence and insufficient individualization.Traditional Chinese medicine,based on the"holistic concept"and"syndrome differentiation and treatment"theory,regulates the balance of qi,blood,yin and yang through therapies such as traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture,showing unique advantages in improving symptoms and preventing recurrence.The combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine can optimize the therapeutic effect and reduce side effects through synergistic effects,but the full-cycle prevention and treatment strategy still needs further exploration.This article systematically reviews the pathogenesis and research progress of treatment of menstrual migraine in traditional Chinese and Western medicine,emphasizes the interaction between hormone fluctuations and neurovascular responses,and proposes an individualized intervention plan based on the menstrual cycle,providing new ideas for clinical practice and reference directions for future research.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of clinically isolated Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis in hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021,and provide evidence for rational use of antimicrobial agents.Methods Data of H.influenzae and M.catarrhalis strains isolated from 2015 to 2021 in CHINET program were collected for analysis,and antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by disc diffusion method or automated systems according to the uniform protocol of CHINET.The results were interpreted according to the CLSI breakpoints in 2022.Beta-lactamases was detected by using nitrocefin disk.Results From 2015 to 2021,a total of 43 642 strains of Haemophilus species were isolated,accounting for 2.91％of the total clinical isolates and 4.07％of Gram-negative bacteria in CHINET program.Among the 40 437 strains of H.influenzae,66.89％were isolated from children and 33.11％were isolated from adults.More than 90％of the H.influenzae strains were isolated from respiratory tract specimens.The prevalence of β-lactamase was 53.79％in H.influenzae strains.The H.influenzae strains isolated from children showed higher resistance rate than the strains isolated from adults.Overall,779 strains of H.influenzae did not produce β-lactamase but were resistant to ampicillin(BLNAR).Beta-lactamase-producing strains showed significantly higher resistance rates to these antimicrobial agents than the β-lactamase-nonproducing strains.Of the 16 191 M.catarrhalis strains,80.06％were isolated from children and 19.94％isolated from adults.M.catarrhalis strains were mostly susceptible to both amoxicillin-clavulanic acid and cefuroxime,evidenced by resistance rate lower than 2.0％.Conclusions The emergence of antibiotic-resistant H.influenzae due to β-lactamase production poses a challenge for clinical anti-infective treatment.Therefore,it is very important to implement antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae and guide rational antibiotic use.All local clinical microbiology laboratories should actively improve antibiotic susceptibility testing and strengthen antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the early efficacy and safety of hip arthroscopy in the treatment of patients with borderline developmental dysplasia of the hip(BDDH). METHODS: A total of 111 patients diagnosed with BDDH from January 2020 to December 2022 were selected and divided into two groups according to the surgical method. Among them, 63 patients who underwent arthroscopy were assigned to the arthroscopy group, including 22 males and 41 females with an average age of (35.67±6.83) years;48 patients who underwent periacetabular osteotomy were assigned to the PAO group, including 18 males and 30 females with an average age of (36.85±7.10) years. The operation time, hospital stay, blood loss, rehabilitation time, complication rate, and reoperation rate were recorded in both groups. Imaging indicators of the two groups were measured and recorded. The modified Harris hip score (mHHS), nonarthritic hip score (NAHS), and hip outcome score-activity of daily living scale (HOS-ADL) were used to evaluate hip function and quality of life before and after surgery. RESULTS: All patients were followed up for 12 months. The operation time (90.43±9.85) min, hospital stay(4.32±0.56) days, rehabilitation time (15.22±2.15) weeks, blood loss (25.69±6.57) ml, and number of complications (15 cases) in the arthroscopy group were all lower than those in the PAO group (117.25±15.83) min, (5.81±0.92) days, (21.10±3.74) weeks, (358.52±126.73) ml, 30 cases, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). At the last follow-up after treatment, the lateral center edge angle (LCEA) (19.82±1.90)° and anterior center edge angle (ACEA) (20.01±1.85)° in the arthroscopy group decreased compared with those before treatment (21.43±2.10)°, (21.54±2.05)°, while in the PAO group, the LCEA (33.03±3.45)° and ACEA (33.48±4.22)° at the last follow-up after treatment increased compared with those before treatment, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The T?nnis angle in the arthroscopy group after treatment (11.05±1.83)° increased compared with that before treatment, while in the PAO group, the T?nnis angle at the last follow-up after treatment (2.98±0.75)° decreased compared with that before treatment, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). In the arthroscopy group, the extrusion index (30.68±2.85) and T?nnis grade after treatment increased compared with those before treatment, while the α angle after treatment (38.79±4.27)° significantly decreased compared with that before treatment, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05);in the PAO group, the extrusion index (15.03±2.18) and α angle (53.58±6.02)° after treatment significantly decreased compared with those before treatment, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The mHHS score at the last follow-up after treatment in the arthroscopy group (86.41±7.33) was higher than that in the PAO group (81.02±6.49), with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). At 6 months after treatment, the NAHS (69.83±6.53) and HOS-ADL scores (78.84±7.39) in the arthroscopy group were higher than those in the PAO group (64.10±6.02), (75.31±7.01), with statistically significant differences (P<0.01);at the last follow-up after treatment, the NAHS (87.63±7.60) and HOS-ADL scores (88.94±8.11) in the arthroscopy group were higher than those in the PAO group (81.63±7.03), (83.63±7.92), with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Compared with PAO, hip arthroscopy shows better early to mid-term clinical efficacy in the treatment of BDDH patients. However, PAO has more advantages in improving acetabular imaging indicators of BDDH patients, while hip arthroscopy only improves the α angle of patients. Meanwhile, hip arthroscopy causes less trauma to patients, reduces blood loss, and is more conducive to the subsequent recovery of patients.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the immediate effect of Kuanxiong Aerosol (KXA) on perioperative coronary microcirculation in patients with unstable angina (UA) suffering from elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS: From February 2021 to July 2023, UA inpatients who underwent PCI alone in the left anterior descending (LAD) branch were included. Random numbers were generated to divide patients into the trial group and the control group at a ratio of 1:1. The index of coronary microcirculation resistance (IMR) was measured before PCI, and the trial group was given two sprays of KXA, while the control group was not given. IMR was measured again after PCI, cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and creatine kinase isoenzyme-MB (CK-MB) were detected before and 24 h after surgery, and major cardiovascular adverse events (MACEs) were recorded for 30 days. The data statistics and analysis personnel were blinded. RESULTS: Totally 859 patients were screened, and 62 of them were involved into this study. Finally, 1 patient in the trial group failed to complete the post-PCI IMR and was excluded, 30 patients were included for data analysis, while 31 patients in the control group were enrolled in data analysis. There was no significant difference in baseline data (age, gender, risk factors, previous history, biochemical index, and drug therapy, etc.) between the two groups. In addition, differences in IMR, cTnI and CK-MB were not statistically significant between the two groups before surgery. After PCI, the IMR level of the trial group was significantly lower than that of the control group (19.56 ± 14.37 vs. 27.15 ± 15.03, P=0.048). Besides, the incidence of perioperative myocardial injury (PMI) was lower in the trial group, but the difference was not statistically significant (6.67% vs. 16.13%, P=0.425). No MACEs were reported in either group. CONCLUSIONS KXA has the potential of improving coronary microvascular dysfunction. This study provides reference for the application of KXA in UA patients undergoing elective PCI. (Registration No. ChiCTR2300069831).

A 15-year-old boy developed abdominal pain and melena two weeks after COVID-19 infection, which was followed by gross hematuria and proteinuria. Laboratory studies revealed significantly elevated inflammatory markers. Endoscopic examinations showed multiple jejunal and ileal ulcers. Renal biopsy suggested mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis with crescent formation, necrosis of capillary loops, and mesangial IgA deposits. IgA vasculitis without purpura was considered as a possible diagnosis, and the treatment with prednisone led to remission of both gastrointestinal and renal diseases.
