Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a refractory autoimmune disease, is among the dominant diseases where traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) shows advantages in the field of rheumatology and immunology. The China-Japan Friendship Hospital hosted the "46th Youth Salon on Dominant Diseases (Systemic Lupus Erythematosus)" organized by the China Association of Chinese Medicine, which led to a consensus on "the advantages, challenges, interdisciplinary approaches, and translational achievements of integrated TCM and Western medical approaches in the diagnosis and treatment of SLE." The diagnosis and treatment of SLE currently face several challenges, such as frequent misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis in the early stages, difficulty in achieving treatment targets, multiple side effects from pharmacotherapy, and the lack of management strategies for special populations, all of which hinder the fulfillment of the clinical needs of patients. Integrated TCM and Western medical approaches can improve clinical symptoms such as skin erythema, aversion to cold and cold limbs, fatigue, dry mouth, restlessness, and heat sensation in the palms and soles, thereby improving patients' quality of life. The approaches also help consolidate the efficacy of conventional Western medicine, slow disease progression, reduce relapse rates, address multi-organ involvement, and prevent or treat complications. Additionally, they enhance efficacy and reduce toxicity, prevent the side effects of Western medications, help reduce hormone use, and offer distinct advantages in the individualized intervention of special populations, contributing to the whole-process management of the disease. However, evidence-based medical support for this integrated approach remains limited, and the quality of available evidence is generally low. Common evaluation systems and modern research methodologies should be adopted to clarify the efficacy of TCM in SLE treatment. Efforts should be made to carry out high-quality evidence-based medical research, strengthen the development of fundamental and pharmacological research, and further explain the distinct advantages of TCM in the diagnosis and treatment of SLE. Future efforts should focus on advancing the integration of TCM and modern medicine, incorporating multi-omics technologies, individualized stratification, and other precision medicine concepts, in combination with artificial intelligence. Moreover, interdisciplinary collaboration should be promoted to utilize modern technology in exploring the essence of TCM theories and screening effective formulae, thereby comprehensively improving the diagnosis and treatment of SLE through integrated TCM and Western medical approaches.

Objective:To construct a comprehensive and targeted risk assessment index system for central venous catheter (CVC) dysfunction in patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) .Methods:The risk assessment indicators for CVC dysfunction in CRRT patients were determined based on literature review and Delphi expert consultation. From July to September 2023, 19 experts in hemodialysis were selected for expert consultation. Based on expert opinions and screening criteria, corresponding indicators were added, deleted, or modified. After the second round of consultation, the expert opinions tended to be consistent.Results:A total of 17 experts completed two rounds of consultation. In the two rounds of consultation, the effective response rates of the questionnaires were 89.5% (17/19) and 100.0% (19/19), respectively, and the expert authority coefficients were 0.87 and 0.88, respectively. The Kendall harmony coefficients were 0.131 and 0.138 ( P<0.05). The final risk assessment index system included seven primary indicators and 44 secondary indicators. Conclusions:The risk assessment index system for CVC dysfunction in CRRT patients constructed is scientific, reliable, and practical, which can provide reference for clinical medical and nursing staff to improve catheter risk management in CRRT patients.

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are a heterogeneous cell population of myeloid origin with immunosuppressive function. MDSCs can inhibit the normal immune response of the host to tumor by inhibiting the activity of T cells, natural killer cells, macrophage, B cells, and promoting the proliferation of Treg and other mechanisms. Therefore, MDSCs are potential targets for tumor immunotherapy. However, whether immunotherapy or other treatments, the effectiveness of monotherapy is limited, so immunotherapy combined with other treatments is a breakthrough combination. In recent years, immunotherapy combined with other treatments has shown initial results, with better results than monotherapy. It has become a research hotspot in tumor treatment and a new treatment method in the future. This article summarized the research progress on the effects of immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, Chinese herbal extract and Immunotherapy combination on MDSCs, in order to provide theoretical support for the clinical application of immunotherapy based combined tumor treatment measures.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of catheter-directed thrombolysis versus catheter-directed thrombectomy for high-risk pulmonary embolism.Methods:The clinical data of 105 patients with high-risk pulmonary embolism from April 2020 to January 2023 in Hebei China Petroleum Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 52 patients were treated with catheter-directed thrombolysis (thrombolysis group), and 53 patients were treated with catheter-directed thrombectomy (thrombectomy group). The efficacy, symptom relief time, oxygen saturation recovery time, mortality rate, Qanadli embolic index, pulmonary artery pressure and complications were compared between two groups.Results:There were no statistical differences in total effective rate, symptom relief time, oxygen saturation recovery time, mortality rate and total incidence of complications between two groups ( P>0.05). Compared with before treatment, the Qanadli embolic index and pulmonary artery pressure after treatment in thrombolysis group and thrombectomy group were significantly lower, thrombolysis group: 22.08 ± 8.57 vs. 45.18 ± 13.27 and (24.18 ± 5.19) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) vs. (34.15 ± 6.22) mmHg, thrombectomy group: 23.11 ± 8.62 vs. 44.82 ± 13.14 and (23.66 ± 5.02) mmHg vs. (34.89 ± 6.27) mmHg, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); but there was no statistical difference the Qanadli embolic index and pulmonary artery pressure before and after treatment between two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:In patients with high-risk pulmonary embolism, both catheter-directed thrombolysis and catheter-directed thrombectomy have good efficacy and can promote the relief of clinical symptoms and the recovery of oxygen saturation, improving the prognosis.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for Smilax glabra quality control. METHODS UPLC method was established to simultaneously determine the contents of 5-O-caffeoylshikimic acid, neoastilbin, astilbin, neoisoastilbin, isoastilbin, engelitin, resveratrol and isoengelitin in 20 batches of S. glabra from different areas (No. S1-S20). The quality evaluation of 20 batches of samples was performed by chemometrics; the differential biomarkers that affected the quality of S. glabra were screened. RESULTS The measured 8 components had good linear relationship within the range of measured concentration (r≥0.999 6). RSDs of precision, repeatability and stability tests (24 h) were all lower than 2.00% (n=6). The average recoveries varied between 97.60% and 106.40% (RSDs were all lower than 2.00%, n=6). Cluster analysis showed that the samples produced in Zhejiang (S1-S5) and Jiangxi (S6-S10) were clustered into one category; the samples produced in Hunan (S11-S15) were clustered into one category; the samples produced in Yunnan (S16-S20) were clustered into one category. Principal component analysis showed that the first two principal components could represent 85.60% information of 8 components in S. glabra. Partial least squares-discriminant analysis showed that variable importance projection values of 5-O-caffeoylshikimic acid, astilbin, isoastilbin and neoastilbin were all greater than 1. CONCLUSIONS There are differences in the contents of the above 8 components in S. glabra from different origins; 5-O-caffeoylshikimic acid, astilbin, isoastilbin and neoastilbin may be differential markers affecting the quality of S. glabra.
