OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of omadacycline in the treatment of macrolide-unresponsive Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia （MUMPP） in children. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on children aged 1-18 years old with MUMPP who were hospitalized in the Department of Pediatrics， the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2022 to June 2025. According to the selection of secondary antibiotics after 72 h of initial treatment with macrolides， they were divided into the omadacycline group and the doxycycline group. Based on conventional treatment， children in the omadacycline group were given intravenous infusion of 2.4 mg/kg （once daily） of omadacycline tosylate， while children in the doxycycline group were given oral doxycycline hydrochloride tablets at 2 mg/kg （twice daily）. The efficacy and safety were compared between the two groups of pediatric patients. Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were performed on clinical efficacy， and subgroup analysis along with multiple sensitivity analyses were conducted to verify the robustness of the conclusions. RESULTS A total of 284 children with MUMPP were included in this study， with 142 in the omadacycline group and 142 in the doxycycline group. In terms of efficacy， although the hospitalization time of children in the omadacycline group was longer than that in the doxycycline group （ P ＜0.05）， the lung lesion absorption rate and clinical efficacy were significantly higher or better than those in the doxycycline group （ P ＜0.05）. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that medication （OR＝5.300， 95%CI： 2.526-11.123）， length of hospital stay （OR＝1.348， 95%CI： 1.167-1.556）， and medication duration （OR＝1.422， 95%CI： 1.169-1.729） were influencing factors of clinical efficacy （ P ＜0.05）. The subgroup analysis results showed that the clinical efficacy of omadacycline was significantly better than that of doxycycline in all subgroups （ P ＜0.05）. The results of multiple sensitivity analysis showed that the regression coefficients B of the four models （gradually adjust variables） before and after inverse probability of treatment weighting were significantly greater than 1 （ P ＜0.05）. In terms of safety， there was no statistically significant difference in the inci dence of adverse drug reactions between the two groups of patients （ χ 2 ＝0.447， P ＝0.504）. CONCLUSIONS In the case of hospitalization and prolonged medication， the efficacy of omadacycline in treating childhood MUMPP is superior to that of doxycycline， and its safety is good.

To explore the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） and integrative TCM-Western medicine approaches in the treatment of diabetic microvascular complications （DMC）， refine key pathophysiological insights and treatment principles， and promote academic innovation and strategic research planning in the prevention and treatment of DMC. The 38th session of the Expert Salon on Diseases Responding Specifically to Traditional Chinese Medicine， hosted by the China Association of Chinese Medicine， was held in Beijing， 2024. Experts in TCM， Western medicine， and interdisciplinary fields convened to conduct a systematic discussion on the pathogenesis， diagnostic and treatment challenges， and mechanism research related to DMC， ultimately forming a consensus on key directions. Four major research recommendations were proposed. The first is addressing clinical bottlenecks in the prevention and control of DMC by optimizing TCM-based evidence evaluation systems. The second is refining TCM core pathogenesis across DMC stages and establishing corresponding "disease-pattern-time" framework. The third is innovating mechanism research strategies to facilitate a shift from holistic regulation to targeted intervention in TCM. The fourth is advancing interdisciplinary collaboration to enhance the role of TCM in new drug development， research prioritization， and guideline formulation. TCM and integrative approaches offer distinct advantages in managing DMC. With a focus on the diseases responding specifically to TCM， strengthening evidence-based support and mechanism interpretation and promoting the integration of clinical care and research innovation will provide strong momentum for the modernization of TCM and the advancement of national health strategies.

ObjectiveTo establish a mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis with interstitial lung disease （RA-ILD） in DBA/1 mice using Porphyromonas gingivalis （Pg） infection combined with collagen-induced arthritis （CIA）， and to comprehensively evaluate pathological characteristics in joints， lungs， and serum. MethodsForty DBA/1 mice were randomly divided into four groups， i.e.， Control， Pg infection （Pg）， CIA， and Pg infection combined with CIA （Pg+CIA）， with 10 mice in each group. Arthritis clinical symptoms were evaluated by recording arthritis incidence and clinical scores. Micro-CT scanning was used to assess knee joint pathology. Histopathological changes and collagen deposition in knee joints and lung tissues were analyzed using hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and Masson staining. Immunohistochemistry was performed to detect protein expression of α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA）， typeⅠ collagen （ColⅠ）， and fibronectin （FN） in lung tissues. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR）was used to measure mRNA expression levels of α-SMA， ColⅠ， FN， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and IL-1β in lung tissues. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect serum levels of Pg， cyclic citrullinated peptide （CCP）， and immunoglobulin G （IgG）. ResultsJoint lesions： The CIA and Pg+CIA groups showed 100% arthritis incidence， with evident joint redness， swelling， and deformity. The number of affected limbs was 27 and 28， and clinical scores were 68 and 70， respectively. No obvious clinical symptoms were observed in the Pg group. Histopathological and imaging analyses showed severe joint lesions in the CIA and Pg+CIA groups， with significantly increased histopathological scores， bone mineral density， bone volume fraction， trabecular thickness， and trabecular number compared to the Control group （P<0.01）. No obvious joint pathology was observed in the Pg group. Lung lesions： The Pg+CIA group exhibited marked alveolar inflammation， interstitial inflammatory cell infiltration， and alveolar wall thickening， with pronounced blue staining of collagen fibers. Histopathological scores and collagen area ratios were significantly higher than those of the Control， Pg， and CIA groups （P<0.05）. Lung protein and mRNA expression levels of α-SMA， ColⅠ， and FN were markedly increased， and mRNA levels of IL-6， TNF-α， and IL-1β were significantly elevated compared to the Control group （P<0.05）. Serology： The Pg+CIA group showed significantly higher levels of CCP， Pg， and IgG compared with the Control， Pg， and CIA groups （P<0.05）. ConclusionDBA/1 mice subjected to Pg infection combined with CIA exhibited pronounced symptoms and pathological features of RA-ILD， along with elevated serum anti-CCP antibody levels. This model represents a novel RA-ILD mouse model， providing a valuable experimental tool for investigating RA-ILD pathogenesis and developing new therapeutics， and serves as a basis for establishing anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody （ACPA）-positive RA-ILD animal models.

Objective: To establish a prediction model for high-risk cardiovascular disease (CVD) among residents aged 35 to 75 years, so as to provide the basis for improving CVD prevention and control measures. Methods: Permanent residents aged 35 to 75 years were selected from Dongcheng District, Beijing Municipality using the stratified random sampling method from 2018 to 2023. Demographic information, lifestyle, waist circumference and blood biochemical indicators were collected through questionnaire surveys, physical examinations and laboratory tests. Influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model, and a prediction model for high-risk CVD was established. The predictive effect was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: A total of 6 968 individuals were surveyed, including 2 821 males (40.49%) and 4 147 females (59.51%), and had a mean age of (59.92±9.33) years. There were 1 155 high-risk CVD population, with a detection rate of 16.58%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, smoking, central obesity, systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years (all P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of the established prediction model was 0.849 (95%CI: 0.834-0.863), with a sensitivity of 0.693 and a specificity of 0.863, indicating good discrimination. Conclusion The model constructed by eight factors including demographic characteristics, lifestyle and blood biochemical indicators has good predictive value for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years.

This study explored the application of traditional and complementary medicine (T&CM) in the WHO eastern Mediterranean region, revealing the progressive emphasis on T&CM and its uneven development in the region. The study identified herbal and indigenous traditional medicine as the most prevalent T&CM therapies in the area, but there are relatively few relevant policies and scientific studies, and national health insurance coverage for T&CM has been weak. In addition, China provides assistance in TCM services to some countries through medical teams and TCM centers, while India provides assistance to specific countries through academic exchanges and educational cooperation, promoting the construction and development of local T&CM. It is recommended to provide management experience to countries in the region to strengthen supervision, actively carry out scientific research cooperation and people-to-people exchanges, promote their expansion of health insurance coverage to promote the high-quality development of T&CM in the region.

This standard specifies the entry items and their order of ancient TCM books, cataloging identifier, cataloging text, cataloging information source, and cataloging item details. The standard can provide standardized and unified guiding principles and methods for the work of ancient TCM books, and promote the sharing and utilization of ancient TCM books.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of acupuncture combined with low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in the treatment of heart and liver fire hyperactivity syndrome in children with tic disorder; To explore its effects on the levels of serum neurotransmitters in children.Methods:A randomized controlled trial study was conducted. A total of 86 children with heart and liver fire hyperactivity syndrome of tic disorder in our hospital from March 2022 to March 2024 were selected as the observation objects and divided into 2 groups using the random number table method, with 43 cases in each group. The control group was treated with rTMS, while the observation group was treated with combined acupuncture on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated continuously for 8 weeks. The TCM syndrome scores were conducted before and after the treatment respectively. The Yale Comprehensive Tic Severity Scale (YGTSS) was used to evaluate the severity of clinical symptoms, and the levels of serum γ -aminobutyric acid (γ-GABA), dopamine (DA), and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) were detected by ELISA. The adverse reactions during the treatment period were recorded and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:The total effective rate was 90.70% (39/43) in the observation group and 72.09% (31/43) in the control group, with statistical significance ( χ2=4.91, P=0.027). After treatment, the scores of convulsion and peristalsis, flushed face and ears, irritability and anger, and red tongue with yellow coating in the observation group were lower than those in the control group ( t values were 3.80, 2.94, 3.26, and 4.22 respectively, P<0.01), and the scores of vocal tics, motor tics and the total score were lower than those in the control group (t values were 7.97, 5.23, and 6.44 respectively, P<0.01). After treatment, the level of γ-GABA in the observation group [(9.72±2.04) μg/L vs. (8.13±1.87) μg/L, t=3.77] was higher than that of the control group ( P<0.01), and DA [(8.98±1.94) μg/L vs. (12.10±2.27) μg/L, t=6.85], levels of 5-HT [(15.20±3.87) μg/L vs. (19.93±3.97) μg/L, t=5.59] were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). During the treatment period, the incidence of adverse reactions was 11.63% (5/43) in the observation group and 9.30% (4/43) in the control group, without statistical significance ( χ2=0.12, P=0.725). Conclusion:Acupuncture combined with rTMS can alleviate the tic symptoms of children of tic disorder with heart and liver fire hyperactivity syndrome, improve the neurotransmitter levels and main TCM syndromes of the children, enhance the clinical efficacy and have good treatment safety.

Traditional and complementary medicine (T&CM) in WHO Southeast Asian Region has a long history, rich variety, large scale, strong government support and relatively complete institutional construction. Among them, TCM is highly popular in Thailand and Indonesia and the legislation is relatively complete; there is a relative lack of legislation and policy in India, Nepal and Myanmar; development in Sri Lanka, East Timor, Bhutan, Bangladesh, Maldives and Democratic People's Republic of Korea is still in its infancy. India, Japan, Republic of Korea and China have provided T&CM assistance to the WHO Southeast Asia Region through signing memorandums, financial support, teaching and research cooperation, preparation export, personnel training, medical service base construction, and special assistance in TCM, so as to promote the improvement of T&CM services and standardization in the region. At present, some countries lack T&CM development funds, scientific research data and effective information exchange. In the future, it is necessary to strengthen legislative supervision and cooperation in education and scientific research based on the national conditions and cultural backgrounds of various countries, and promote the better integration of T&CM into the global health system. The dissemination and development of TCM in the WHO Southeast Asia Region can learn from the experience of T&CM in India, Japan and the Republic of Korea in terms of organizational guarantee, standard establishment, cultural publicity and brand effect, pay attention to the exchange and integration with local culture, give full play to the advantages of TCM, and enhance the public's sense of trust, so as to enhance the overseas influence of TCM.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Tongfu Xiefei Formula in treating patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD)based on the theory of simultaneous treatment of lung and intestine,and to observe its effects on serum inflammatory cytokines.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 134 AECOPD patients treated at the Department of Pulmonary Diseases of Traditional Chinese Medicine,Tangshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from December 2020 to December 2022.The patients were divided into an observation group and a western medicine group based on the treatment plans,with 67 cases in each group.The western medicine group received conventional western medical treatment,while the observation group was given Tongfu Xiefei Formula orally in addition to the western medical treatment.The course of treatment covered 2 weeks.Before and after treatment,the two groups were observed in the changes of the modified Medical Research Council(mMRC)dyspnea scale scores,COPD Assessment Test(CAT)scores,lung function indicators,arterial blood gas analysis indicators,and serum inflammatory cytokine levels.The clinical efficacy,total incidence of adverse reactions,and hospitalization time were compared between the two groups.Results(1)After 2 weeks of treatment,the total effective rate in the observation group was 95.52%(64/67),compared to 79.10%(53/67)in the western medicine group.The intergroup comparison(tested by the chi-square test)showed that the efficacy of the observation group was significantly superior to that of the western medicine group(P＜0.01).(2)After treatment,the mMRC scores and CAT scores in both groups were significantly decreased(P＜0.05),and the decrease in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the western medicine group(P＜0.01).(3)After treatment,lung function indicators of the forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1),forced vital capacity(FVC),and their ratio(FEV1/FVC)in both groups were significantly increased(P＜0.05),and the increase in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the western medicine group(P＜0.01).(4)After treatment,the oxygen saturation(SaO2)and arterial oxygen partial pressure(PaO2)levels in both groups significantly increased(P＜0.05),while the arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure(PaCO2)level was significantly decreased(P＜0.05).The increase in SaO2 and PaO2 levels and the decrease in PaCO2 level in the observation group were significantly superior to those in the western medicine group(P＜0.01).(5)After treatment,the levels of serum inflammatory cytokines of tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),C-reactive protein(CRP),and interleukin-6(IL-6)in both groups were significantly decreased(P＜0.05),and the decrease in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the western medicine group(P＜0.01).(6)The total incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 2.99%(2/67),compared to 5.97%(4/67)in the western medicine group,with no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).(7)The observation group had a significantly shorter hospitalization time than the western medicine group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Tongfu Xiefei Formula,formulated based on theory of simultaneous treatment of lung and intestine,is effective and safe on relieving symptoms such as dyspnea in AECOPD patients,improving lung function,correcting arterial blood gas disorders,inhibiting the release of inflammatory factors,shortening treatment time,while causing no serious adverse reactions.

Objective To explore the correlation between traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndromes of chronic gastritis and the indicators of five circuits and six qi,revealing the influence of different congenital qi endowments on TCM syndrome differentiation and providing evidence for individualized treatment.Methods Medical records meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria were collected from the Hospital Information System(HIS)of Rui Bao Street Community Health Service Center in Haizhu District,Guangzhou between January 20,2017 and January 20,2023.Data included age,birth date,and syndrome differentiation.Yearly circuit(Suiyun),celestial control-terrestrial effect(Sitian-Zaiqian)qi,three patterns of five circuits(Wuyun-Sanji),and syndrome patterns were statistically analyzed using Excel for database construction,with SPSS 23.0 for x2 tests and Logistic regression.Results(1)Among 1 882 chronic gastritis patients,spleen-stomach weakness(25.3％,477/1 882)was the most prevalent syndrome,followed by liver-stomach disharmony type,damp-heat in the spleen-stomach type,stomach-yin deficiency type,and stasis obstruction of stomach collateral type(x2=69.950,P=0.000).(2)Significant differences existed in Suiyun(Taijiao,Taigong,Taiyu,Taizhi,Shaogong,Taishang),Sitian-Zaiqian(Shaoyin-Yangming,Taiyin-Taiyang,Yangming-Shaoyin,Taiyang-Taiyin),and Wuyun-Sanji(excessive/insufficient earth/metal/water circuit)distributions among syndromes(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(3)For Suiyun-syndrome relationships:Birth in Taijiao/Shaogong years was the high-risk factor for developing chronic gastritis of liver-stomach disharmony type(P＜0.01);Taishang years were associated with stomach yin deficiency type(P＜0.05);Taijiao/Shaogong/Taiyu years were protective against damp-heat in the spleen-stomach type(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(4)For Sitian-Zaiqian-syndrome relationships:Jueyin-Shaoyang/Yangming-Shaoyin years linked to spleen-stomach weakness type(P＜0.05);Shaoyang-Jueyin years were correlated with damp-heat in the spleen-stomach type(P＜0.05).(5)For Wuyun-Sanji-syndrome relationships:Insufficient earth/water circuit years were associated with liver-stomach disharmony type(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01);excessive/balanced metal circuit years linked to stomach yin deficiency type(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01);insufficient metal circuit years were correlated with damp-heat in the spleen-stomach type(P＜0.05).Conclusion TCM syndromes of chronic gastritis are influenced by environment-body interactions,disordered visceral function and yin-yang imbalance.Clinical treatment should integrate the varied indicators of five circuits and six qi variations for personalized regimens to improve symptoms and quality of life.
