By reconstructing the integrated Chinese and western medicine diagnostic and treatment system, the "Two Reconstructions" theoretical framework establishes a standardized pathway of "classification-staging-syndrome differentiation", which improves the accuracy of disease identification and strengthens the capacity for full-course intervention; in addition, by reconstructing the modern materia medica system, it innovatively integrates the traditional properties and efficacy of Chinese herbal medicinals with modern pharmacological mechanisms, forming a "state-target co-regulation" precise medication model, and builds a dose-effect theoretical system for prescriptions and medicinals, thereby enhancing both the targeting accuracy and dosage precision of therapeutic interventions. The "Two Reconstructions" theorecitcal framework is a key strategy for enhancing clinical efficacy. It can precisely identify "states" and "targets" for directed intervention, shift the focus of prevention and treatment earlier to enable full-cycle management, establish standardized paradigms for reproducible and evaluable efficacy, and expand the scope of clinical practice to address conditions without typical syndromes and critical illnesses. As a systematic pathway for innovation in TCM, this theoretical framework provides valuable insights and references for promoting the high-quality development of integrative Chinese and western medicine.

Objective :
To develop and to validate a combined model integrating18F-FDG PET/CT radiomics with clinical features to distinguish between lymphoma and lymphoid inflammatory hyperplasia.
Methods :
A retrospective study was conducted on a cohort of 232 patients diagnosed with lymphoma or lymphoid inflammatory hyperplasia. Comparative analyses of clinical and traditional imaging indicators were performed to identify inter-group differences. The clinical features were delineated and extracted using medical software including 3D-Slicer and Lifex. Selection of the features was performed to construct a PET/CT-based radiomics Logistic model, with a combined model integrating PET/CT with clinical features then used to evaluate the discriminative efficacy of these models.
Results:
Analysis of inter-group differences indicated that age, CTmean, and metabolic tumor volume(MTV)were effective for differentiating between lymphoma and lymphoid inflammatory hyperplasia(P<0.05). The PET/CT-based radiomics Logistic model differentiated between lymphoma and lymphoid inflammatory hyperplasia, with an area under curve(AUC) of 0.924(95%CI: 0.884-0.960) and 0.863(95%CI: 0.774-0.939) in the training and testing cohorts, respectively. The integrated Logistic model that combined PET/CT-based radiomics with clinical features to distinguish between lymphoma and lymphoid inflammatory hyperplasia achieved an AUC of 0.933(95%CI: 0.889-0.969) in the training cohort and 0.884(95%CI: 0.792-0.964) in the testing cohort. Decision curve analysis(DCA) demonstrated that the integrated model provided the greatest clinical net benefit.
Conclusion
The hybrid model integrating18F-FDG PET/CT radiomics with clinical features shows robust diagnostic efficacy to distinguish between lymphoma and lymphoid inflammatory hyperplasia.

Objective To establish a prognostic model that predicts the survival and prognosis of gastric adenocarcinoma patients by studying the LncRNAs related to iron death in gastric cancer cells,thereby providing a theoretical basis for the development of their biomarkers and therapeutic targets.Methods The transcript sequencing data of gastric adenocarcinoma patients in the TCGA database were analyzed and intersected with iron death-related genes,which were screened for iron death-related LncRNAs by co-expression and differential analysis methods.One-way and multifactorial Cox regression analyses were used to screen out the prognostic-related LncRNAs in gastric adenocarcinoma patients,so as to establish the prognostic scoring models.On this basis,risk values were calculated for each sample,and the reliability of the model was fully verified.According to the model results,differences in the immune infiltration and immune response between the high-and low-risk groups were analyzed.Results Tumor tissues were screened for 503 LncRNAs(431 up-regulated and 72 down-regulated)associated with iron death compared to the normal tissues;univariate Cox regression analysis yielded 33 LncRNAs that could be used as the independent risk factors,whereas multivariate Cox regression analysis constructed a predictive model consisting of 17 LncRNAs.Survival curves indicated that patients with the high risk had the significantly lower survival rates than those with the low risk(P<0.001).Unifactorial and multifactorial independent prognostic analyses showed that age,stage,and risk value were independent risk factors for patients;Time-dependent ROC curves suggested that the predicted AUC values of the model's 1-,2-,and 3-year survival rates were 0.751,0.799,and 0.779 respectively,proving that the model was reliable and stable.There were significant differences in multiple immune activation responses,the degree of immune cell infiltration,and the expression levels of immune check points between the high-and low-risk groups.Conclusion The established prognostic prediction model based on iron death-related lncRNAs for gastric adenocarcinoma patients can better assess the prognosis of patients,and the lncRNAs included in the model have the feasibility of being developed into biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

ObjectiveThe antitumor activity of sesquiterpenoid M36 isolated from Myrrha against human hepatoma HepG2 cells was investigated in this study. MethodHepG2 cells were treated with M36 at different concentrations (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 μmol·L-1). Firstly, the effects of M36 on the proliferation of human hepatoma HepG2 cells were detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT), colony formation assay, and EdU proliferation assay. Hoechst staining, flow cytometry analysis, and Western blot were used to explore the effect of M36 on the apoptosis of human hepatoma HepG2 cells. Acridine orange staining and western blotting were used to examine the effect of M36 on autophagy in HepG2 cells. Finally, Western blot was used to detect protein expression of cancer-related signaling pathways. ResultCompared with the blank group, M36 treatment significantly inhibited the proliferation of human hepatoma HepG2 cells (P<0.01), and the half inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of M36 for 48 h was 5.03 μmol·L-1, in a dose- and time-dependent manner. M36 was also able to induce apoptosis and autophagy in human hepatoma HepG2 cells. After treatment with 8 μmol·L-1 M36 for 48 hours, the apoptosis rate of HepG2 cells was (42.03±9.65)% (P<0.01). Compared with the blank group, HepG2 cells treated with 4 and 8 μmol·L-1 M36 for 48 h had a significant increase in cleaved poly ADP-ribose polymerase (cleaved-PARP) protein levels (P<0.01). Acridine orange staining showed that autophagy was significantly activated in HepG2 cells treated with 4 and 8 μmol·L-1 M36 for 48 h compared with the blank group (P<0.01), which was further verified by the up-regulation of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 Ⅱ (LC3 Ⅱ). Western blot results showed that compared with the blank group, the levels of phosphorylated extracellular regulated protein kinase (p-ERK), phosphorylated p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p-p38 MAPK), phosphorylated c-Jun N-terminal kinase (p-JNK), and its downstream nuclear transcription factors c-Jun and p-c-Jun protein were significantly increased in M36 group (P<0.05, P<0.01). The mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of MAPK signaling pathway. ConclusionThe sesquiterpenoid M36 isolated from Myrrha inhibits the proliferation of human hepatoma HepG2 cells and promotes apoptosis and autophagy, which may be related to the activation of the MAPK signaling pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the safety of early enteral nutrition (EEN) support in patients with severe intra-abdominal infection and intestinal fistulas.Methods:This was a retrospective cohort study. We collected relevant clinical data of 204 patients with severe intra-abdominal infection and intestinal fistulas who had been managed in the No. 1 Department of General Surgery, Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University between 1 January 2017 and 1 January 2020. The patients were allocated to EEN or delayed enteral nutrition (DEN) groups depending on whether enteral nutrition had been instituted within 48 hours of admission to the intensive care unit. The primary outcome was 180-day mortality. Other outcomes included rates of intraperitoneal hemorrhage, septic shock, open abdominal cavity, bloodstream infection, mechanical ventilation, and continuous renal replacement therapy. Risk factors for mortality were analyzed by logistic regression.Results:There were no significant differences in hematological data or other baseline characteristics between the two groups at the time of admission to the intensive care unit (all P>0.05). However, septic shock (31.2% [15/48] vs. 15.4% [24/156], χ 2=4.99, P=0.025), continuous renal replacement therapy (27.1% [13/48] versus 9.0% [14/156], χ 2=8.96, P=0.003), and 180-day mortality (31.2% [15/48] vs. 7.7% [12/156], χ 2=15.75, P<0.001) were significantly more frequent in the EEN than the DEN group (all P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that older age (OR=1.082, 95%CI:1.027-1.139, P=0.003), worse Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scores (OR=1.189, 95%CI: 1.037-1.363, P=0.013), higher C-reactive protein (OR=1.013, 95%CI:1.004-1.023, P=0.007) and EEN (OR=8.844, 95%CI:1.809- 43.240, P=0.007) were independent risk factors for death in patients with severe intra-abdominal infection and intestinal fistulas. Conclusion:EEN may lead to adverse events and increase mortality in patients with both enterocutaneous fistulas and severe abdominal infection. EEN should be implemented with caution in such patients.
