Animal model research on spleen and stomach diseases in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） is of great significance for elucidating the nature of diseases and syndromes and for revealing the mechanisms of action of Chinese herbal medicinals. At present， studies on classical TCM syndrome models of spleen and stomach diseases mainly focus on spleen deficiency syndrome， liver constraint syndrome， and damp-heat syndrome. Model construction is mostly based on the etiological and pathophysiological characteristics of syndrome， and model evaluation primarily involves macroscopic manifestations and physicochemical indicators. This paper summarizes the current research status of animal models integrating disease and syndrome for seven common spleen and stomach diseases， including chronic gastritis and gastric precancerous lesions， gastroesophageal reflux disease， functional dyspepsia， inflammatory bowel disease， irritable bowel syndrome， functional constipation， and functional diarrhea. The modeling methods and characteristics of disease-syndrome combined animal models for each disease are analyzed. It is proposed that future research on disease-syndrome integration in spleen and stomach diseases should move toward syste-matic， precise， and integrative development， and that interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary research approaches should be adopted to enhance the predictive value and application efficiency of disease-syndrome combined animal models.

This paper summarizes Professor CUI Yinglin's clinical experience in treating pediatric mitochondrial encephalomyopathy based on the original qi theory. It is proposed that original qi depletion is the core pathogenesis， and the fundamental therapeutic principle is consolidating the root and replenishing original qi. Clinically， the disease is classified into four syndrome types， including insufficiency of kidney essence， spleen qi depletion， liver-kidney yin deficiency， and original qi constraint and stagnation accompanied by phlegm-stasis obstructing the collaterals. Correspondingly， self-formulated Gujing Yiyuan Decoction （固精益元汤） can be used to tonify the kidney and replenish essence， reinforce and strengthen original qi. Modified Yiyuan Decoction （益元汤） is used to fortify the spleen and supplement qi， consolidate the root and replenish original qi. Modified Da Bu Yuan Decoction （大补元煎） is employed to nourish the liver and kidney， and replenish original qi. Self-formulated Huatan Quyu Formula （化痰祛瘀方） is used to supplement qi and activating blood， resolve phlegm and unblocking the collaterals. Medication is flexibly adjusted according to syndrome differentiation， with simultaneous attention to the functional balance of the zang-fu （脏腑） organs and the harmony of qi， blood， yin， and yang， which may provide useful guidance for the clinical treatment of pediatric mitochondrial encephalomyopathy.

ObjectiveTo meet the requirements of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), Sichuan Institute for Drug Control (Sichuan Testing Center of Medical Devices, Sichuan Institute of Musk Deer Breeding) Safety Evaluation Center (hereinafter referred to as the center) conducts a targeted validation study to address the lack of supporting data for the specified validity periods of disinfectants, feed, and bedding during their use in laboratory animal facilities. The study summarizes practical experience in material management and provides a scientific basis for the standardized management of materials in the facility. MethodsUnder the routine operating conditions of the laboratory animal facility at the center, the disinfection efficacy of four commonly used disinfectants was confirmed using the quantitative suspension kill test, with the disinfectants tested on day 0, day 7, and at 1, 2, and 3 months after preparation and after opening; for laboratory animal feed, nutritional components, chemical contaminants, and microbial indicators were tested 7 days after opening; microbial indicators of laboratory animal corncob bedding were tested after storage for 7 days following opening and sterilization. ResultsUnder the GLP management system of our center, the disinfection efficacy log reduction values of prepared 0.04% sodium hypochlorite solution, 0.1% didecyldimethylammonium bromide solution, and 0.2% benzalkonium bromide solution were all ≥5 on days 0 and 7. The log reduction values of opened 75% ethanol were ≥5 on days 0 and 7 and at 1, 2, and 3 months after opening. All disinfectants were therefore qualified and effective. Compared with the factory inspection data, the nutritional components, chemical contaminants, and microbial indicators of SPF-grade rat and mouse maintenance feed, SPF-grade guinea pig growth and reproduction feed, conventional-grade guinea pig growth and reproduction feed, rabbit maintenance feed, and dog maintenance feed showed a slight overall downward trend but no significant differences 7 days after opening. The microbial indicators of specialized corncob bedding for SPF-grade laboratory animals stored for 7 days after opening and conventional-grade corncob bedding stored for 7 days after sterilization showed no significant fluctuations. All indicators still met the relevant requirements of GB/T 14924.2—2001 Laboratory Animals—Hygienic Standard for Formula Feeds and GB 14924.3—2010 Laboratory Animals—Nutrients for Formula Feeds. ConclusionBased on practical experience in managing the center's GLP laboratory animal facility and validation of core quality indicators, the specified validity periods of disinfectants, feed, and bedding meet the quality requirements, providing a practical reference for the standardized management of laboratory animal facilities.

Objective:To describe the safety of using the Chinese-made robotic laparoscopic surgery system for laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy in the treatment of severe pelvic organ prolapse.Methods:A pilot descriptive clinical study was conducted, enrolling 16 severe pelvic organ prolapse patients at Peking University First Hospital from April 2023 to January 2024. Patients who consented to participate in this study underwent laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy for severe pelvic organ prolapse using Chinese-made robotic laparoscopic surgery system. Preoperative clinical basic data and perioperative data of the patients were collected, summarizing the data on perioperative bleeding and complications, and reviewed the surgical learning experience. The evaluation indicators related to the learning experience included: (1) efficiency evaluation: including equipment docking time, total surgery time, suturing time, mechanical arm operation time and hysterectomy time, which were timed and recorded during surgery; (2) equipment operability evaluation: including equipment operation task load assessment and intraoperative operation feeling score. The cumulative sum analysis method was used to quantify surgery time and fit the learning curve.Results:Sixteen patients were successfully enrolled and underwent surgery, including total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy or salpingectomy plus sacrocolpopexy, or sacrocolpopexy alone (for one case without uterus). The age of 16 cases was (56.7±7.6) years (ranged from 44 to 67 years), with body mass index of (25.4±2.5) kg/m2. Concurrent procedures included anterior vaginal wall repair in 12 cases (12/16), posterior vaginal wall repair in 13 cases (13/16), tension-free vaginal tape obturator system in 1 case (1/16), and recto-uterine pouch hernia repair in 4 cases (4/16). The total surgery time was (355.8±91.1) minutes, with docking time at (6.7±4.9) minutes, robotic operative time at (267.6±81.4) minutes, robotic suturing time at (155.6±53.9) minutes, and hysterectomy time at (112.0±45.3) minutes. Learning curve analysis revealed inflection points at 6 cases for total surgery time ( P<0.001, R2=0.944) and robotic operative time ( P<0.001, R2=0.982), 5 cases for docking time ( P<0.001, R2=0.989), and 6 cases for robotic suturing time ( P<0.001, R2=0.907). Hysterectomy time had an inflection point at 5 cases ( P=0.023, R2=0.700). Median blood loss was 30 ml (range: 10-1 000 ml), with severe bleeding in one patient (1/16). No conversions to open surgery or laparoscopy occurred, and no severe perioperative or postoperative complications were reported. Conclusion:The Chinese-made robotic laparoscopic surgery system demonstrates excellent short-time safety and ease of operation for laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy.

Objective:To explore differences in the radiation-induced intestinal injury in mice exposed to ultra-high dose rate (FLASH) and conventional-dose-rate (CONV) pulsed X-ray irradiation in order to provide evidence for the application of ultra-high dose rate pulsed X-rays in gastrointestinal radiotherapy.Methods:Using the random number table method, 32 C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into four groups: a sham irradiation group (SHAM), two conventional dose rate groups (CONV0.067 and CONV0.1), and an ultra-high dose rate group (F215), with each group containing eight mice. All groups, except SHAM, received a single 12 Gy abdominal X-ray irradiation at dose rates of 0.067, 0.1, and 215 Gy/s, respectively. At 3 d post-irradiation, histopathological (hematoxylin-eosin staining, HE staining), immunohistochemical, and Western blot analysis were performed to assess the histopathological markers and oxidative stress indicators of intestinal tissues, as well as relevant proteins involved in signaling pathways.Results:At 3 d post-irradiation, mice in all irradiation groups suffered from varying degrees of intestinal tissue degeneration and necrosis, epithelial cell shedding, villus shortening, and crypt loss ( t = 5.75, 8.79, 5.71, P < 0.05). Regarding oxidative stress, at 3 d post-irradiation, mice in the CONV0.067 and CONV0.1 groups showed significantly lower levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX), glutathione (GSH), and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) compared to those in the F215 group ( t = 7.06-10.64, P < 0.01). In contrast, their malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were significantly elevated ( t = 11.06, 8.31, P < 0.01), with no statistical significance observed between them and mice in the F215 group ( P > 0.05). Immunohistochemical and Western blot analyses indicated that at 3 d post-irradiation, mice in the three irradiation groups exhibited an upward trend in the Nrf2 and HO-1 protein levels and a downward trend in the Keap1 protein level compared to those in the SHAM group. Notably, statistical significance was observed between the F215 group and the two conventional dose rate groups ( t = 4.89-20.95, P < 0.05). These result were consistent with the prior changes in antioxidant markers. Conclusions:Ultra-high-dose-rate X-ray irradiation reduces acute RIII by alleviating oxidative stress and modulating the expression of the Keap1-Nrf2-HO-1 signaling pathway.
