ObjectiveTo investigate the potential mechanism of Renshen Yangrongtang in alleviating myelosuppression by regulating the expression of reactive oxygen species (ROS), myeloperoxidase (MPO), and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). MethodsK562 cells were divided into blank group, etoposide group (40 μmol·L-1), and etoposide+Renshen Yangrongtang freeze-dried powder groups with low-, medium-, and high-dose (2, 4, 8 g·L-1). Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was used to determine the freeze-dried powder of Renshen Yangrongtang. Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) was used to detect ROS, MPO, and NETs expression in each group. Western blot analysis was performed to assess intracellular MPO and NE expressions. Twenty 8-week-old male mice were randomly divided into blank group, etoposide group (100 mg·kg-1), and etoposide + Renshen Yangrongtang groups with low-, medium-, and high-dose (0.1, 0.5, 2.0 g·kg-1). Except for the blank group that received PBS via gavage at room temperature, and the etoposide group that received an intraperitoneal injection for 3 days, the remaining groups received gavage of Renshen Yangrongtang for 14 consecutive days after 3 days of etoposide administration. The peripheral blood related indicators were detected through an automated hematology analyzer; Western blot analysis was performed to assess MPO and neutrophil elastase (NE) expression changes in the marrow cells of mice. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect ROS, MPO, and NETs changes in the marrow cells of mice. MPO and NE on femur bones were stained through immunohistochemistry. Scanning electron microscopy was used to analyze the structural changes of NETs in the marrow cells of mice after drug administration. ResultsLC-MS results showed that the freeze-dried powder of Renshen Yangrongtang contained complete technical materials such as Chinese angelica, Astragalus mongholicus, and ginseng. In K562 cells, compared with the etoposide group, ELISA results indicated that the concentrations of MPO, ROS, and NETs in the etoposide + Renshen Yangrongtang medium and high-dose groups were decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01), and Western blot data showed that the etoposide high-dose group significantly reduced the expression of MPO and NE protein in K562 cells (P<0.05, P<0.01). In vivo, compared with the etoposide group, the number of RBC, WBC, and PLT in the etoposide+Renshen Yangrongtang high-dose group increased significantly (P<0.05). ELISA results suggested that in the etoposide+Renshen Yangrongtang low-, medium-, and high-dose groups, the concentration of mice ROS, MPO, and NETs significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). Western blot results revealed that compared with the etoposide group, the expressions of MPO and NE in the marrow cells of mice in the etoposide + Renshen Yangrongtang low-, medium- and high-dose groups were significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). Scanning electron microscopy observations revealed that Renshen Yangrongtang reduced the NETs structure generation in the marrow cells of mice after the influence of etoposide. ConclusionRenshen Yangrongtang can alleviate etoposide-induced myelosuppression by inhibiting ROS/MPO and reducing the formation of intracellular NETs.

ObjectiveTo analyze the data structure and standards of rehabilitation outpatient medical records, to provide data support for improving the quality of rehabilitation outpatient care and developing medical insurance payment policies. MethodsBased on the normative documents issued by the National Health Commission, Basic Standards for Medical Record Writing and Standards for Electronic Medical Record Sharing Documents, in accordance with the Quality Management Regulations for Outpatient (Emergency) Diagnosis and Treatment Information Pages (Trial), reference to the framework of the World Health Organization Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs), the data framework and content of rehabilitation outpatient medical records were determined, and the data standards were discussed. ResultsThis study constructed a data framework for rehabilitation outpatient medical records, including four main components: patient basic information, visit process information, diagnosis and treatment information, and cost information. Three major reference classifications of WHO-FICs, International Classification of Diseases, International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, and International Classification of Health Interventions,were used to establish diagnostic standards and standardized terminology, as well as coding disease diagnosis, functional description, functional assessment, and rehabilitation interventions, to improve the quality of data reporting, and level of quality control in rehabilitation. ConclusionThe structuring and standardization of rehabilitation outpatient medical records are the foundation for sharing of rehabilitation data. The using of the three major classifications of WHO-FICs is valuable for the terminology and coding of disease diagnosis, functional description and assessment, and intervention in rehabilitation outpatient medical records, which is significant for sharing and interconnectivity of rehabilitation outpatient data, as well as for optimizing the quality and safety of rehabilitation medical services.

ObjectiveTo explore the standardization of inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet, encompassing its structure, content and data standards, to enhance the standardization level of inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet, improve data reporting quality, and provide accurate data support for medical insurance payment, hospital performance evaluation, and rehabilitation discipline evaluation. MethodsBased on the relevant specifications of the National Health Commission's Basic Norms for Medical Record Writing, Specifications for Sharing Documents of Electronic Medical Records, and Quality Management and Control Indicators for Inpatient Medical Record Summary Sheet (2016 Edition), this study analyzed the structure and content of the inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet. The study systematically applied the three major reference classifications of the World Health Organization Family of International Classifications, International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10/ICD-11, ICD-9-CM-3), International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI Beta-3), for disease diagnosis, functional description and assessment, and rehabilitation intervention, forming a standardized terminology system and coding methods. ResultsThe inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet covered four major sections: inpatient information, hospitalization information, diagnosis and treatment information, and cost information. ICD-10/ICD-11 were the standards and coding tools for admission and discharge diagnoses in the inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet. The three functional assessment tools recommended by ICD-11, the 36-item version of World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0, Brief Model Disability Survey and Generic Functioning domains, as well as ICF, were used for rehabilitation functioning assessment and the coding of outcomes. ICHI Beta-3 and ICD-9-CM-3 were used for coding surgical procedures and operations in the medical record summary sheet, and also for coding rehabilitation intervention items. ConclusionThe inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet is a summary of the relevant content of the rehabilitation medical record and a tool for reporting inpatient rehabilitation data. It needs to be refined and optimized according to the characteristics of rehabilitation, with necessary data supplemented. The application of ICD-11/ICD-10, ICF and ICHI Beta-3/ICD-9-CM-3 classification standards would comprehensively promote the accuracy of inpatient diagnosis of diseases and functions. Based on ICD-11 and ICF, relevant functional assessment result data would be added, and ICHI Beta-3/ICD-9-CM-3 should be used to code rehabilitation interventions. Improving the quality of rehabilitation medical records and inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet is an important part of rehabilitation quality control, and also lays an evidence-based data foundation for the analysis and application of inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet.

This article systematically analyzes the historical evolution of the name, origin, medicinal parts, harvesting, processing and others of Chrysanthemi Indici by referring to the herbal medicine, medical books, prescription books and other documents of the past dynasties, combined with the relevant modern research materials, in order to provide a basis for the development of famous classical formulas containing this medicinal herb. According to the research, Chrysanthemi Indici was first recorded under the name Kuyi in Bencao Jingjizhu, with aliases such as Yeshanju, Huangjuzai and Lubianju. The botanical source of Chrysanthemi Indici throughout history was Chrysanthemum indicum of the Asteraceae family. It is now distributed in most areas of China, and since the Qing dynasty, the product from Suichang, Zhejiang has been highly regarded. The whole plant can be used as medicine. According to the natural growth laws, the roots were collected in the first lunar month, leaves in the third, stems in the fifth, flowers in the ninth, and fruits in the eleventh, all of which were dried in the shade. In modern times, Chrysanthemi Indici is harvested during their initial blooming in autumn and winter. Since Bencao Gangmu listed Chrysanthemi Indici as a single medicinal material and clarified that all parts have medicinal value, ancient herbal texts began to record the independent medicinal use of Chrysanthemi Indici Flos, and the use of flowers as medicine has become mainstream. In modern times, the quality of Chrysanthemi Indici Flos is summarized to be best when they are dry, yellow, complete, and fragrant. Because Chrysanthemi Indici has a bitter and pungent taste, and is warm, it can eliminate and disperse, often using the power of alcohol to reach and ascend, and is commonly used to treat carbuncles, boils, and scrofula, with consistent properties and effects throughout ancient and modern times. Based on the research results, it is suggested that Chrysanthemi Indici involved in the formulas can be used as C. indicum, which can be used according to the medicinal parts labeled in the original formulas and the requirements of processing, while those without clear medicinal parts and requirements of processing should be used as the whole plant of the dried raw products.

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 analyze the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of children with anti-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (anti-HMGCR) antibody-mediated necrotizing myopathy, and to explore early identification and management strategies to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data and treatment outcomes of 10 pediatric patients with anti-HMGCR antibody-mediated necrotizing myopathy admitted to the Department of Rheumatology, Children′s Hospital of Fudan University from December 2020 to December 2024. Statistical description was performed using SPSS 22.0.Results:Among the 10 patients, the male-to-female ratio was 1:4, the age of onset was (7.2±4.0) years, and the disease duration at diagnosis was (22.2±19.6) months. None had a history of statin exposure. Six patients presented with muscle weakness, and4 were diagnosed due to asymptomatic elevation of creatine kinase (CK); 4 had dermatomyositis-like rashes. All patients showed significantly elevated CK levels [median 3 291(1 969, 8 776)U/L] and underwent muscle biopsy. Histopathological findings revealed myofiber degeneration, necrosis, and regeneration in all cases, with inflammatory infiltration in 9 cases, MHC-Ⅰ positivity in all, and C5b-9 positivity in 9 cases. The median follow-up duration was (15.7±6.3) months. At the last follow-up, muscle strength was normal or nearly normal, and the CK median value had decreased to 977.5 (211.0, 3 536.0) U/L.Conclusion:For patients with suspected idiopathic inflammatory myopathy and significantly elevated CK, muscle-specific antibody testing-including anti-HMGCR-and muscle biopsy should be performed promptly regardless of the presence of skin rash, to ensure accurate diagnosis and guide treatment, thereby avoiding misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis.
