This paper summarizes professor WANG Shouchuan's clinical experience in treating childhood absence epilepsy based on the theory of "five zang (脏) organs storing the spirit". It is believed that dysfunction of the five zang organs in storing the spirit is the key pathogenesis of childhood absence epilepsy, proposing that the fundamental therapeutic principle is regulating the spirit by tonifying the five zang organs. Treatment is performed based on differentiation of heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney epilepsy. For heart epilepsy, the treatment focuses on harmonizing qi and blood and regulating heart spirit, with Yangxin Anshen Decoction (养心安神汤) or Daochi Ningshen Decoction (导赤宁神汤) selected according to deficiency or excess syndrome. For liver epilepsy, the treatment aims to subdue wind-yang and calm liver spirit, using Bugan Zhenhun Decoction (补肝镇魂汤) or Gouma Qianhun Decoction(钩麻潜魂汤) based on deficiency or excess syndrome. For spleen epilepsy, the treatment concentrates on resolving phlegm-turbidity and restoring spleen thought, employing Guipi Yangyi Decoction (归脾养意汤) or Changyu Huatan Decoction (菖郁化痰汤) in line with deficiency or excess syndrome. For lung epilepsy, the treatment focuses on expelling exogenous pathogens and consolidating lung corporeal soul, applying Yuping Gupo Decoction (玉屏固魄汤) or Xiebai Anpo Decoction (泻白安魄汤) according to deficiency or excess syndrome. For kidney epilepsy, the treatment aims to strengthen the primordial qi and replenish kidney will, with Dihuang Yuanzhi Decoction (地黄远志汤). The self-made Dingxian Powder (定痫散) is used dynamically throughout the course, emphasizing the flexible application of decoctions, pills and syrupsis.

The lung collaterals form a network that branches from the lung meridian, traversing the lung system and extending across the body′s surface. Lung collateral disease refers to the structural alterations or dysfunction in these collaterals caused by external or internal pathogens. Research into the structural and physiological functions of children′s lung collaterals, as well as the pathogenesis and syndrome differentiation for treating lung collateral diseases in children, holds significant value in guiding the prevention and treatment of pediatric respiratory conditions. Drawing on the theory of collateral disease, the clinical insights of both historical and contemporary physicians, and modern research findings—while considering the unique physiological and pathological characteristics of children′s respiratory systems—this study provides a foundational summary of the morphology and spatial distribution of children′s lung collaterals. The characteristics of these collaterals are highlighted as thin, sparse, short, narrow, brittle, and tender. From this structural understanding, the unique physiological functions of children′s lung collaterals are analyzed. The study further explores the interactions between pathogenic factors and lung collaterals, elucidating the pathogenesis and progression of children′s lung collateral diseases. It proposes treatment principles centered on "seeking treatment in the collaterals and employing the method of unblocking collaterals, "which align with the unique features of pediatric lung collaterals. Common treatment approaches, and relevant prescriptions for managing these diseases are summarized. This paper lays the foundation for a theoretical system encompassing the structure, function, pathogenesis, and syndrome differentiation for treating children′s lung collateral diseases. It offers valuable insights for the clinical diagnosis and management of pediatric respiratory diseases linked to collateral dysfunction and serves as a reference for the systematic development of a broader theoretical framework for children′s collateral diseases.

It is considered that the fundamental pathogenesis of pediatric pertussis lies in the dysfunction of lung qi, and it is advocated to treat the disease with the method of regulating qi and relieving cough. Clinically, the disease is divided into three stages for syndrome differentiation and treatment, initial coughing stage, spasmodic coughing stage, and prolonged coughing stage. In the initial coughing stage, the pathogenesis involves invasion by external pathogens and failure of lung qi to disperse; the treatment principle is to release the exterior, expel pathogens, ventilate the lungs, and relieve cough. For cold patterns, modified San'ao Decoction (三拗汤) is prescribed; for heat type, a self-formulated Qingqi Xuanfei Decoction (清气宣肺汤) is used. In the spasmodic coughing stage, the pathogenesis is the congealing of phlegm and fire with impaired lung purification; the treatment focuses on eliminating phlegm, dredging the meridians, purging the lungs, and relieving cough. Mild cases are treated with a self-formulated Tongluo Xiefei Decoction (通络泻肺汤), while severe cases are treated with a modified combination of Maxing Shigan Decoction (麻杏石甘汤) and Qianjin Weijing Decoction (千金苇茎汤). In the prolonged coughing stage, the pathogenesis involves the depletion of qi and yin and latent pathogens in a weakened lung; the treatment aims to tonify qi, nourish yin, moisten the lungs, and eliminate residual pathogens. For lung yin deficiency, modified Shashen Maidong Decoction (沙参麦冬汤) is used; for lung-spleen qi deficiency, a self-formulated Jianpi Gufei Decoction (健脾固肺汤) is prescribed.

Allergic rhinitis is a common allergic disease in children.Its pathogenesis is complex and it is difficult to achieve radi-cal cure or effective and stable long-term treatment goals.Chinese medicine has obvious advantages in preventing and treating allergic rhinitis in children due to its wide range of targets,long-lasting effects and few adverse reactions.This paper proposes that the onset of allergic rhinitis is mostly caused by the dysfunction of the lung,spleen and kidney,the external wind triggering the latent wind,and the combination of the two winds.A staged prevention and treatment strategy of Chinese medicine should be adopted,which includes dispersing external wind,suppressing latent wind,and promoting lung-qi and clearing nasal orifice during the attack period to treat its symptoms,and preventing external wind,calming down latent wind,and regulating and tonifying the lung,spleen,and kidney during the remission period to treat its root cause;meanwhile,attention should be paid to avoiding the adverse effects of congenital endowment factors and the induction of acquired environmental factors,strengthening the body's health to protect against the evil wind,preventing the transformation of existing diseases and the recurrence of allergic rhinitis in children at all stages.

Reactive oxygen species(ROS)-mediated anticancer modalities,which disturb the redox balance of cancer cells through multi-pathway simulations,hold great promise for effective cancer management Among these,cooperative physical and biochemical activation strategies have attracted increasing attention because of their spatiotemporal controllability,low toxicity,and high therapeutic efficacy.Herein,we demonstrate a nanogel complex as a multilevel ROS-producing system by integrating chloroperoxidase(CPO)into gold nanorod(AuNR)-based nanogels(ANGs)for cascade-amplifying pho-tothermal-enzymatic synergistic tumor therapy.Benefiting from photothermal-induced hyperthermia upon near-infrared(NIR)laser exposure,the exogenous ROS(including H202)were boosted by the AuNR nanogel owing to the intercellular stress response.This ultimately promoted the efficient enzyme-catalyzed reaction of loaded CPO combined with the rich endogenous H2O2 in tumor cells to signifi-cantly elevate intracellular ROS levels above the threshold for improved therapeutic outcomes.Both in vitro and in vivo studies have verified the cascade-amplifying ROS-mediated antitumor effects,providing feasible multimodal synergistic tactics for tumor treatment.
