Functional dyspepsia (FD), characterized by persistent or recurrent dyspeptic symptoms without identifiable organic, systemic or metabolic causes, is an increasingly recognized global health issue. The objective of this guideline is to equip clinicians and nursing professionals with evidence-based strategies for the management and treatment of adult patients with FD using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The Guideline Development Group consulted existing TCM consensus documents on FD and convened a panel of 35 clinicians to generate initial clinical queries. To address these queries, a systematic literature search was conducted across PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database, China Biology Medicine (SinoMed) Database, Wanfang Database, Traditional Medicine Research Data Expanded (TMRDE), and the Traditional Chinese Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System (TCMLARS). The evidence from the literature was critically appraised using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. The strength of the recommendations was ascertained through a consensus-building process involving TCM and allopathic medicine experts, methodologists, pharmacologists, nursing specialists, and health economists, leveraging their collective expertise and empirical knowledge. The guideline comprises a total of 43 evidence-informed recommendations that span a range of clinical aspects, including the pathogenesis according to TCM, diagnostic approaches, therapeutic interventions, efficacy assessments, and prognostic considerations.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of injectable modified sodium hyaluronate gel DX23 in filling and treating midface depression.Methods:A prospective, randomized, multicenter, "no treatment" controlled study was conducted. Patients with midface depression who were treated from March 2019 to February 2021 at Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, and Jining First People’s Hospital were enrolled. Patients were randomized using a stratified block randomization method with a random function list. The experimental group received injectable modified sodium hyaluronate gel DX23 to treat midface depression. The concentration of sodium hyaluronate in DX23 was 23 mg/ml. The syringe was inserted perpendicularly to the skin at a 90-degree angle, and the injection layers were the superficial periosteum or the subcutaneous layer. The injection volume ranged from 1 to 6 ml. The control group received no treatment. The upper boundary of the midface extended outward from the zygomatic arch to the upper margin of the helix and inward to the line connecting the outer canthus. The lower boundary was the line connecting the corner of the mouth to the earlobe. Researchers used the midface aesthetic scales (MAS) response rate at 6 months post-injection as the primary indicator to evaluate the efficacy in improving the severity of midface depression. A reduction of 1 point in the MAS score compared to pre-treatment was considered a response, i. e., effective. Secondary indicators included the MAS response rates at 6 and 12 months after the last treatment (MAS response rate=number of MAS responders/total cases × 100%), the average change in three-dimensional midface volume images, the global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS) response rate, patient satisfaction regarding the degree of improvement in midface volume, and monitoring of adverse reactions. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 25.0, SAS 9.04, and StataIC 15.0 software. The full analysis set (FAS) and the per-protocol set (PPS) were selected for analysis. Inferential analysis used t-tests and chi-square tests, with P<0.05 considered statistically significant. Results:A total of 164 patients were enrolled. The experimental group included 134 patients (7 males and 127 females) with an average age of 43.0±9.7 years (ranging from 21.6 to 66.6 years). The control group included 30 patients (5 males and 25 females) with an average age of 39.3±11.1 years (ranging from 25.6 to 43.5 years). The experimental group received bilateral midface depression filling, with an initial use of injectable modified sodium hyaluronate gel DX23 at a volume of (4.07±1.28) ml. In the experimental group, 3 cases were lost to follow-up at 30 days, 2 cases at 60 days, and 10 cases were excluded due to protocol violations. Fifteen patients entered FAS but not PPS. Ultimately, 119 patients completed the trial. The MAS response rates in the experimental group at 6 and 12 months post-treatment were 94.96% (113/119) and 56.30% (67/119), respectively. The control group’s MAS response rate at 6 months was 3.33% (1/30). At the 6-month follow-up post-treatment, the GAIS response rates evaluated by researchers and patients in the experimental group were 97.48% (116/119) (PPS) and 97.69% (27/30) (FAS), respectively. In the control group, the GAIS response rate evaluated by researchers was 3.33% (1/30) (FAS, PPS), and the patient GAIS response rate was 0% (0/30) (FAS, PPS). There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in both researcher and patient GAIS response rates (both P<0.01). At 6 months post-injection, comparisons of midface volume changes from baseline between the experimental and control groups showed statistically significant differences [(1.65±1.40) ml (PPS) vs. (0.12±0.85) ml; (1.55±1.44) ml (FAS) vs. (0.12±0.85) ml; both P<0.001]. At the 6-month follow-up in the experimental group, 1 case was lost to follow-up. In the PPS, 81 patients were "satisfied, " 34 were "very satisfied, " and 3 were "neutral." In the control group, 29 patients were "neutral, " and 1 was "dissatisfied." A total of 128 patients in the experimental group experienced injection site reactions, including swelling, hardness, tenderness, pain, lumps (protrusions), and bruising. Over 75% of patients resolved spontaneously within 8 days. Three cases received hot compress treatment and resolved within 28 days. One case experienced swelling of the left lower eyelid 1 day after injection, which resolved after local compression for 3 months. In the control group, 1 case developed circulatory ischemia and carotid atherosclerosis 12 months after the trial began. Conclusion:Injectable modified sodium hyaluronate gel DX23 corrects midface depression through local volume augmentation and is characterized by safety and durability.

Objective To analyze the medication rules of national patented Chinese herbal compounds for the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN)by data mining method,and to provide reference for clinical medication.Methods The patents of Chinese medicine compound for the treatment of DPN were retrieved from the website of the China National Intellectual Property Administration(CNIPA).Excel 2021 was used for frequency statistics.RAW Graphs 2.0 was used to make a Sankey diagram of the efficacy of high-frequency Chinese medicinals.SPSS Statistics 25.0 software was used for hierarchical cluster analysis of the medicines,and the core prescriptions were mined based on Cytoscape 3.9.1.Results A total of 101 patented prescription were included,involving 243 herbs.The top three Chinese medicines in the descending order of occurrence frequency were Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma,Astragali Radix,and Paeoniae Radix Alba.Most of the medicines of patented Chinese medicine compounds for the treatment of DPN were warm and mild in nature,sweet,bitter and pungent in flavor,and had the meridian tropism of liver,heart and spleen meridians.According to the therapeutic actions,the medicine can be divided into tonic drugs,blood-activating and stasis-removing drugs,exterior-releasing drugs,liver-calming and wind-extinguishing drugs,heat-clearing drugs,bleeding-arresting drugs,mind-calming drugs,and urination-promoting and dampness-percolating drugs.The association rule analysis revealed the drug combination of Astragali Radix and Angelicae Sinensis Radix with the highest support.After hierarchical cluster analysis,the top 31 Chinese medicinals were classified into 7 groups.The core prescription which was composed of 7 medicines,namely Astragali Radix,Chuanxiong Rhizoma,Spatholobi Caulis,Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma,Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix,Cinnamomi Ramulus and Angelicae Sinensis Radix was finally mined out.Conclusion The treatment of DPN with patented Chinese herbal compounds is based on the therapies of supplementing deficiency,activating blood and removing stasis,and warming and unblocking meridians and collaterals.Meanwhile,consolidating the acquired foundation by strengthening spleen and soothing liver is also stressed.Clinically,the herbal pairs of Astragali Radix-Angelicae Sinensis Radix,Paeoniae Radix Alba-Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma are the optional drugs,and the core prescription composed of Astragali Radix,Chuanxiong Rhizoma,Spatholobi Caulis,Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma,Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix,Cinnamomi Ramulus and Angelicae Sinensis Radix can be used for the whole course of DPN.

Objective To investigate the Gram-positive coccus resistance in nationwide's tertiary hospitals and understand the trend of antimicrobial resistance.Methods All the clinical isolates were collected from 19 hospitals and the minimal inhibitory concentrations(MICs)were tested using agar/broth dilution method recommended.Results A total of 1 974 pathogenic Gram-positive coccus from 19 tertiary hospitals in 19 cities nationwide over the period from July 2021 to June 2022 were studied.Based on the MIC results,the prevalence of methicillin resistant Stapylococcus aureus(MRSA)and methicillin resistant Stapylococcus epidermidis(MRSE)were 36.4％and 79.9％respectively.No vancomycin insensitivity Staphylococcus was detected.Staphylococcus aureus were 100％susceptibility to linezolid and teicoplanin.Antibiotic resistance rate of Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium to ampicillin were 3.1％and 92.9％.The detectation rate of vancomycin resistant Enterococcus(VRE)was 1.6％.Nonsusceptibility rate of Enterococcus faecalis to linezolid was 32.2％,two consecutive monitoring rises and nonsusceptibility rate of Enterococcus faecium(12.5％)was also significantly increased.The prevalence of penicillin non-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae(PNSSP)was 0.8％based on non-meningitis and parenteral administration criterion,decrease of nearly 30 percentage points from the previous surveillance.While for cases of oral penicillin,the rate was 71.8％,showing similar to last time.The results indicated that the number of strains with higher MIC value of penicillin(MIC ≥4 mg·L-1)decreased significantly.There were no significant differences of resistance rates of Stapylococcus aureus,Stapylococcus epidermidis,Enterococcus faecalis,Enterococcus faecium and Streptococcus pneumoniae among various groups such as different department,age,or specimen source.Conclusion VRE detection ratio stablized at a relatively low level.The number of Streptococcus pneumoniae with higher MIC value of penicillin decreased significantly compared with the previous monitoring.The increase of linezolidin-insensitive Enterococcus was noteworthy.

Objective To investigate the Gram-negative bacteria resistance in nationwide's tertiary hospitals and understand the trend of antimicrobial resistance.Method All the clinical isolates were collected from 19 hospitals and the minimal inhibitory concentrations(MICs)were tested using agar/broth dilution method recommended.Results A total of 4 066 pathogenic isolates from 19 tertiary hospitals in 19 cities nationwide over the period from July 2021 to June 2022 were studied.Based on the MIC results,Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae showed extended spectrum β-lactamase(ESBLs)phenotype rates of 55.0％and 21.0％,respectively,ESBLs phenotype rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae keep going down.The ratios of carbapenems resistance Klebsiella pneumoniae increased by 5 percentage points compared with the previous monitoring.Carbapenems,moxalactam,sitafloxacin,β-lactam combination agents,fosfomycin trometamol,and amikacin displayed desirable antibacterial activity against Enterbacterales,susceptibal rates were above 75％.In addition,tigacycline,omacycline,colistin and fluoxefin maintained good antibacterial activity against their respective effective bacteria/species,and the bacterial sensitivity rates by more than 80％.Resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannnii to imipenem were 26.3％and 72.1％and multidrug-resistant(MDR)detection rates were 41.1％and 77.3％,extensively drug-resistant(XDR)were 12.0％and 71.8％,respectively.Comparison of drug resistance rates from different wards,ages and specimen sources indicated that the proportion of resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from intensive care unit(ICU)were significantly higher than non-ICU.Carbapenem resistance rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from ICU were more than 35％.Resistance rates of Haemophilus influenzae isolated in children to β-lactam,macrolide,clindamycin and ESBLs detection rate in Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from children were more than those from adults and the old people,so bacterial resistance in children is an important problem in China.Conclusion ESBLs detection rate of Escherichia coli increased slightly after years of continuous decline.The proportion of carbapenem resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa was stable,but the resistance rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii to carbapenems was still increased,which should be paid more attention.

Aim To investigate whether resveratrol (Resveratrol, Res) induces cardiomyocyte protection by increasing intracellular zinc ion and its possible signal mechanism. Methods H9c2 cells were routinely cultured and 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) was used to establish an endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) model. The experiment was randomly divided into control group, 2-DG group, Res +2-DG group, TPEN + Res + 2-DG group and 3-MA + Res +2-DG group. Cell viability was detected by MTT and CCK-8; the expression levels of ERS molecular chaperone proteins glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), glucose-regulated protein 94 (GRP94) and autophagy proteins LC3 II / I, p62 and p-AMPK were detected by Western blot; the expression of LC3 protein was measured by cellular immunofluorescence; the mitochondrial membrane potential (Aijjm) and the intracellular zinc ion level were measured by laser scanning confocal microscope. Results Compared with the control group, 2-DG reduced cell activity and resveratrol inhibited the changes caused by 2-DG, which was reversed by zinc chelator TPEN. 2-DG increased GRP78 and GRP94 expression and resveratrol inhibited the protein changes caused by 2-DG, which was reversed by TPEN. 2-DG increased the expression of LC3 II / I, p-AMPK and decreased the expression of p62, and resveratrol promoted the effect of 2-DG. 2-DG increased the fluorescence intensity of LC3, and resveratrol enhanced the effect of 2-DG, which was reversed by TPEN and 3-MA. 2-DG reduced the red fluorescence intensity of mitochondrial TMRE and green fluorescence intensity of intracellular zinc ions, and resveratrol inhibited these changes caused by 2-DG, which was also reversed by TPEN and 3-MA. The above differences were all statistically significant (P < 0. 05). Conclusion Resveratrol increases intracellular zinc to promote ERS-induced autophagy and prevent the mPTP opening in H9c2 cardiac cells.

Objective: To analyze the trends of the age of menarche among Chinese Han girls aged 9 to 18 years from 2010 to 2019. Methods: Data were extracted from the Chinese National Surveys on Students' Constitution and Health in 2010, 2014 and 2019. A total of 253 037 Han girls aged 9 to 18 years with complete data on menarche were selected in this study. They were asked one-on-one about their menstrual status, age and residence information. The median age of menarche was estimated by probability regression. U tests were used to compare the difference in median age at menarche in different years. Results: The median age at menarche (95%CI) among Chinese Han girls was 12.47 (12.09-12.83) years in 2010, 12.17 (11.95-12.38) years in 2014 and 12.05 (10.82-13.08) years in 2019, respectively. Compared with that in 2010, the median age at menarche in 2019 decreased by 0.42 years (U=-77.27, P<0.001). The annual average changes were -0.076 years from 2010 to 2014 (U=-57.19, P<0.001) and -0.023 years from 2014 to 2019 (U=-21.41, P<0.001), respectively. The average annual changes in urban areas in the periods of 2010 to 2014 and 2014 to 2019 were -0.071 years and 0.006 years, respectively, while those in rural areas were -0.082 years and -0.053 years, respectively. The average annual changes in the regions of north, northeast, east, south central, southwest and northwest were -0.064, -0.099, -0.091, -0.080, -0.096 and -0.041 years in the period of 2010 to 2014 and 0.001, -0.040, -0.002, -0.005, -0.043 and -0.081 years in the period of 2014 to 2019. Conclusion: The age of menarche among Chinese Han girls aged 9 to 18 years shows an advanced trend from 2010 to 2019, and the trends in urban and rural areas and different regions have different characteristics.

Objective: Compare and analyze the results of the domestic Lanyi AH600 glycated hemoglobin analyzer and other different detection systems to understand the comparability of the detection results of different detectors, and establish the best cut point of Lanyi AH600 determination of haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in the diagnosis of diabetes. Methods: Multi center cohort study was adopted. The clinical laboratory departments of 18 medical institutions independently collected test samples from their respective hospitals from March to April 2022, and independently completed comparative analysis of the evaluated instrument (Lanyi AH600) and the reference instrument HbA1c. The reference instruments include four different brands of glycosylated hemoglobin meters, including Arkray, Bio-Rad, DOSOH, and Huizhong. Scatter plot was used to calculate the correlation between the results of different detection systems, and the regression equation was calculated. The consistency analysis between the results of different detection systems was evaluated by Bland Altman method. Consistency judgment principles: (1) When the 95% limits of agreement (95% LoA) of the measurement difference was within 0.4% HbA1c and the measurement score was≥80 points, the comparison consistency was good; (2) When the measurement difference of 95% LoA exceeded 0.4% HbA1c, and the measurement score was≥80 points, the comparison consistency was relatively good; (3) The measurement score was less than 80 points, the comparison consistency was poor. The difference between the results of different detection systems was tested by paired sample T test or Wilcoxon paired sign rank sum test; The best cut-off point of diabetes was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Results: The correlation coefficient R² of results between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument in 16 hospitals is≥0.99; The Bland Altman consistency analysis showed that the difference of 95% LoA in Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital in Jiangsu Province (reference instrument: Arkray HA8180) was -0.486%-0.325%, and the measurement score was 94.6 points (473/500); The difference of 95% LoA in the Tibetan Traditional Medical Hospital of TAR (reference instrument: Bio-Rad Variant II) was -0.727%-0.612%, and the measurement score was 89.8 points; The difference of 95% LoA in the People's Hospital of Chongqing Liang Jiang New Area (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT) was -0.231%-0.461%, and the measurement score was 96.6 points; The difference of 95% LoA in the Taihe Hospital of traditional Chinese Medicine in Anhui Province (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT) was -0.469%-0.479%, and the measurement score was 91.9 points. The other 14 hospitals, Lanyi AH600, were compared with 4 reference instrument brands, the difference of 95% LoA was less than 0.4% HbA1c, and the scores were all greater than 95 points. The results of paired sample T test or Wilcoxon paired sign rank sum test showed that there was no statistically significant difference between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument Arkray HA8180 (Z=1.665,P=0.096), with no statistical difference. The mean difference between the measured values of the two instruments was 0.004%. The comparison data of Lanyi AH600 and the reference instrument of all other institutions had significant differences (all P<0.001), however, it was necessary to consider whether it was within the clinical acceptable range in combination with the results of the Bland-Altman consistency analysis. The ROC curve of HbA1c detected by Lanyi AH600 in 985 patients with diabetes and 3 423 patients with non-diabetes was analyzed, the area under curve (AUC) was 0.877, the standard error was 0.007, and the 95% confidence interval 95%CI was (0.864, 0.891), which was statistically significant (P<0.001). The maximum value of Youden index was 0.634, and the corresponding HbA1c cut point was 6.235%. The sensitivity and specificity of diabetes diagnosis were 76.2% and 87.2%, respectively. Conclusion: Among the hospitals and instruments currently included in this study, among these four hospitals included Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital in Jiangsu Province (reference instrument: Arkray HA8180), Tibetan Traditional Medical Hospital of TAR (reference instrument: Bio-Rad Variant Ⅱ), the People's Hospital of Chongqing Liang Jiang New Area (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT), and the Taihe Hospital of traditional Chinese Medicine in Anhui Province (reference instrument: Huizhong MQ-2000PT), the comparison between Lanyi AH600 and the reference instruments showed relatively good consistency, while the other 14 hospitals involved four different brands of reference instruments: Arkray, Bio-Rad, DOSOH, and Huizhong, Lanyi AH600 had good consistency with its comparison. The best cut point of the domestic Lanyi AH600 for detecting HbA1c in the diagnosis of diabetes is 6.235%.
