Employing bibliometric methods and adhering to principles of textual research, this study systematically investigated prescription source, formula name, composition evolution, dose evolution, origin, processing, ancient and modern applications of Xiaofengsan. Xiaofengsan, also known as Renshen Xiaofengsan and Chantui Xiaofengsan, was first recorded in the Taiping Huimin Hejijufang(hereafter referred to as Jufang) of the Southern Song dynasty. The formula composition included Schizonepetae Spica, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Chuanxiong Rhizoma, Notoptery Rhizoma et Radix, Bombyx Batryticatus, Saposhnikoviae Radix, Poria, Cicadae Periostracum, Pogostemonis Herba, Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex and Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, a total of 12 medicinal materials. In terms of the evolution of formula composition, formulas across dynasties largely aligned with those recorded in Jufang, with only minor variations in application. The results of the formula dosage research indicated that one dose of medication in Jufang corresponded to the following modern dosages:Schizonepetae Spica of 82.6 g, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma of 82.6 g, Chuanxiong Rhizoma of 82.6 g, Notoptery Rhizoma et Radix of 82.6 g, Bombyx Batryticatus of 82.6 g, Saposhnikoviae Radix of 82.6 g, Poria of 82.6 g, Cicadae Periostracum of 82.6 g, Pogostemonis Herba of 82.6 g, Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma of 82.6 g, Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex of 20.65 g and Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium of 20.65 g, the origins of all the constituent drugs were consistent with the 2020 edition of Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China. The results of the investigation into the decoction method indicated that the aforementioned drugs should be finely ground into powder(pass through the No.5 sieve), and 8.26 g was taken for each dose, which was taken with the clear liquid obtained by steeping tea leaves in boiling water for several minutes. This mixture was administered three times daily, 30 min after meals. The ancient functional indications of this formula mainly involved dispelling wind-heat, eliminating pathogenic factors and regulating the middle Jiao. It primarily treated all wind-heat syndromes manifesting as skin diseases, predominantly affecting the upper body, especially the head and face. The diseases involved in modern applications were mostly dermatological diseases, including urticaria, eczema, atopic dermatitis and others. In this paper, by combing the relevant ancient literature, the key information of Xiaofengsan was textual researched, in order to provide reference for the modern application and development of this formula.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is widely used in the clinical management of chronic hepatitis B in China and has exhibited certain advantages in alleviating symptoms, regulating overall physiological status, and assisting in the intervention against disease progression. However, there is still a lack of a comprehensive clinical efficacy evaluation system for TCM treatment of chronic hepatitis B, with inconsistencies in the selection of evaluation indicators and limited objectivity and standardization in the assessment of syndromes and symptoms, which have limited the systematic accumulation of evidence regarding TCM efficacy and the incorporation of TCM into clinical guidelines and expert consensus statements. This article systematically reviews the current status of research on the clinical efficacy evaluation of TCM for chronic hepatitis B and analyzes the achievements made in the field of TCM therapy and integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy for chronic liver diseases in China’s national major infectious disease research programs during the periods of the Eleventh to Thirteenth Five-Year Plans. It also points out related issues that remain to be addressed and proposes a conceptual framework and specific components for constructing a TCM clinical efficacy evaluation system from the perspectives of evaluation objectives, indicator composition, and application scenarios, in order to provide a reference for the development of related standards, clinical research, and the standardization of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of adverse events in hemodialysis nursing in class-A tertiary hospitals in China and analyze their nursing human resources related influencing factors, aiming at provide references for hemodialysis centers to adjust nursing human resources scientifically to reduce the occurrence of nursing adverse events.Methods:A convenient sampling method was used. From August to October 2021, a self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate nursing adverse events in hemodialysis centers of 860 class-A tertiary hospitals during 2020 in China. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of blood loss, hemodialysis catheter-related blood stream infection (CRBSI) and venous needle dislodgement (VND) in hemodialysis centers.Results:A total of 826 valid questionnaires were received, with an effective response rate of 96.05%(826/860). There were 826 hemodialysis centers covering 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in China. The establishment period of each center was 24(18, 30) years. There were 45(30, 62) dialysis machines, 180(110, 260) patients and 19(13, 27) registered nurses. Blood loss, hemodialysis CRBSI and VND occurred in 70.94% (586/826), 68.04%(562/826) and 46.97% (388/826) of hemodialysis centers, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression results showed that the daily treatment shift ( OR=0.730, 95% CI 0.536-0.994), the proportion of nurses with bachelor's degree or above ( OR=1.635, 95% CI 1.142-2.342), and whether nurses worked part-time on peritoneal dialysis treatment ( OR=0.225, 95% CI 0.052-0.965) were the influencing factors for blood loss in hemodialysis centers (all P<0.05). The daily treatment shift ( OR=0.566, 95% CI 0.413-0.777), the number of patients which each nurse was responsible for per shift simultaneously ( OR=0.549, 95% CI 0.400-0.753), proportion of blood purification specialized nurses ( OR=1.661, 95% CI 1.216-2.269), whether nurses worked part-time on CRRT ( OR=0.700, 95% CI 0.511-0.957), the education level of the nursing manager was junior college and below ( OR=3.789, 95% CI 1.576-9.113) and bachelor′s degree ( OR=2.585, 95% CI 1.328-5.033) were the influencing factors for the hemodialysis catheter-associated bloodstream infection in hemodialysis centers (all P<0.05). The number of patients which each nurse ( OR=0.580, 95% CI 0.433-0.777) was responsible for per shift simultaneously was the influencing factor in the occurrence of VND in hemodialysis centers ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The nursing adverse events of blood loss, hemodialysis catheter-associated bloodstream infection and VND were relatively common in hemodialysis centers. The hospital managers should take corresponding measures aiming at the above influencing factors to prevent the occurrence of nursing adverse events and improve the quality and safety of nursing.
