Acupuncture and moxibustion have their unique advantages in treating tumors,but the theoretical framework of acupuncture and moxibustion intervention in tumors needs to be improved,and the academic system still needs to be sorted out.In this paper,we try to describe the commonalities between Chinese medical theories and modern medical technologies in order to consolidate the theoretical foundation of acupuncture intervention in tumor.Specifically:① Acupuncture regulates immune function and energy metabolism,which is a specific form of tonifying the spleen and stomach to support positive qi.② Tumors belong to the broad definition of"sores and ulcers"in traditional Chinese medicine,which is a special kind of chronic inflammation,and acupuncture intervenes in tumors by intervening in inflammatory reactions from ulcers.③ Tumor is a"dynamic pseudo-organ"with yin and yang attributes and"life attributes".Acupuncture and moxibustion can regulate various cells and factors in the tumor environment in a multi-targeted way,so as to make it tend to the state of yin and yang equilibrium.④ Acupuncture and moxibustion have unique advantages in the reduction of toxicity,enhancement of efficacy,tonicity,rejuvenation,treatment of complications,etc.,which complement the allopathic therapies of modern medicine,and can help to realize survival with tumors.

[Purpose]To analyze the cost-effectiveness of endoscopic screening for upper gastroin-testinal cancer in Yangcheng County of Shanxi Province.[Methods]People aged from 40 to 69 who participated in upper gastrointestinal cancer screening in Yangcheng County in 2018 were se-lected as the study subjects to participate in upper gastrointestinal cancer screening in 2018,and endoscopic examination with iodine staining and indicative biopsy were performed for screening.The detection rates of precancerous lesions and upper gastrointestinal malignancies,and early di-agnosis rates were calculated,and compared among different groups.The data of screening cost were collected;and the per capita screening cost,the average cost of early case detection and ear-ly detection cost index(EDCI)were calculated.[Results]Among 2 950 subjects undergoing en-doscopy,pathological biopsy was completed in 2 073 cases(70.27％),374 cases of precancerous le-sions(12.68％)and 52 cases of malignancies(1.76％)were detected,among which 17 cases were up-per gastrointestinal cancer with a detection rate of 0.58％,there were 44 early cases with an early diagnosis rate of 84.62％.The detection rate of precancerous lesions and positive cases in men was higher than that of women,but the early diagnosis rate of upper gastrointestinal cancer was lower than that of women;the detection rate of positive cases and digestive tract cancer of 50 years and above were higher than those of people aged 40 to 49.The cost of screening for one positive lesion was 25 528.85 CNY,the cost of screening for one early case was 30 170.46 CNY.The EDCI was 0.52,indicating a good cost-effective value.[Conclusion]The study shows that the early diagnosis and early treatment screening program of upper gastrointestinal cancer has achieved remarkable re-sults in Yangcheng County.The follow-up screening work should focus on men and people over 50 years old,and strengthen the publicity of upper gastrointestinal screening for cancer.

Objective To analyze the research status,hot directions and frontier trends of traditional Chinese medicine in the prevention and treatment of diseases by regulating Notch signaling pathway based on bibliometrics.Methods Based on Citespace and Vosviewer,the literature on the regulation of Notch signaling pathway by traditional Chinese medicine in CNKI and WoSCC was visually analyzed.Results 362 and 85 related literatures were published in Chinese and English respectively until January 2024.Since 2013,the number of literatures published in this field has shown a fluctuating increasing trend.China is the country with the most publications;Hunan University of Chinese Medicine were the institutions with the most publications in the Chinese database,and Beijing University of Chinese Medicine was the institution with the most publications in the English literature database.Combined with the research direction of each research team and keyword clustering and burst analysis,the research hotspots of traditional Chinese medicine regulating Notch signaling pathway are focused on cerebral ischemia,myelosuppression and hepatic fibrosis.Diseases such as Asthma,colorectal cancer have become emerging research directions in recent years.Electroacupuncture therapy to promote stem cell proliferation and treat neurological diseases is one of the frontier research trends in this field.Conclusion Recent years have seen a rapid development of traditional Chinese medicine's disease prevention and treatment that targets Notch signaling pathway.Various expert teams have obtained rich research results,and the research hotspots show a diversified trend.In-depth exploration of this can provide strong evidence for the molecular mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of various diseases.

Depression is a mental disorder char-acterized by mood disturbances that pose a signifi-cant threat to human mental and physical health.In recent years,the farnesoid X receptor(FXR)has been found to be expressed in brain regions such as the hippocampus and is closely related to the onset of depression.It can also affect the down-stream target cAMP response element binding pro-tein(CREB)-brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)signaling pathway,holding promise as a new target for the treatment of depression.This ar-ticle analyzes how hippocampal FXR regulates the CREB-BDNF signaling pathway and summarizes the latest research progress related to the pathogene-sis of depression,with the aim of providing precise targeted ideas for the drug development and clini-cal treatment of depression.

Corn silk, a Traditional Chinese Medicine, has the effect of calming liver, cholagogue, detumescence and diuresis. Corn silk is also widely used as tea and functional food. Natural flavonoids have multiple biological activities, which are also the main bioactive components of corn silk. In the past decade, many new advances have been made in the chemistry, analysis, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, and safety evaluation of corn silk flavonoids. The chemical composition research of flavonoids has enriched the variety of flavonoids in corn silk. Pharmacological studies have confirmed and expanded the efficacy of corn silk flavonoids. And safety evaluation has provided a theoretical basis for the safe application of corn silk flavonoids. Through literature search, the extraction, separation, compositional analysis, content determination, pharmacological effect, pharmacokinetics, and safety research progress of corn silk flavonoids in the past ten years were reviewed in this paper.

PANoptosis is a newly defined type of programmed cell death (PCD), which is triggered by a variety of stimuli and covers three known forms of PCD: apoptosis, pyroptosis and necroptosis. In physiological state, cell death plays an important protective role against pathogen invasion, but its over-activation may aggravate inflammatory response and cause tissue damage. Studies have shown that the occurrence and progression of acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS), asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other lung diseases are closely related to PANoptosis. The purpose of this review is to deeply explore the molecular mechanism of PANoptosis and its regulatory factors in lung diseases, in order to discover potential therapeutic targets and provide new targets and innovative ideas for clinical treatment for lung diseases.
