ObjectiveTo compare the performance of different automatic evaluation methods for detecting pattern hallucinations generated by large language models （LLMs） in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome differentiation and to identify a strategy with higher overall discriminative performance against expert manual judgment. MethodsA standardized TCM syndrome-differentiation dataset containing 598 cases was constructed from case reports published in Chinese core journals indexed by Peking University Core Journals or Chinese Science Citation Database. Each of the 598 cases was submitted to five Chinese LLMs， with each model generating one syndrome-pattern output per case， yielding 2990 outputs in total. The 598 outputs generated by Qwen3-Next-80B-A3B-Thinking were independently annotated for syndrome-pattern hallucinations by two licensed TCM physicians with intermediate or higher professional titles. Disagreements were adjudicated by a third licensed TCM physician with a senior associate professional title and more than 10 years of clinical experience. The resulting consensus annotations served as the reference labels for training and validating the automated evaluation method. Based on these reference labels， three categories of automated evaluation methods were developed and compared following a progressive strategy from text-level semantic similarity， to syndrome-element structural consistency， and finally multi-feature fusion. Method A employed sentence-embedding models based on semantic similarity between pattern texts. Method B adopted a rule-based threshold method using weighted Jaccard coefficients of disease-location and disease-nature syndrome elements. Method C utilized a machine-learning classifier integrating syndrome-element matching scores， missing and redundant syndrome-element counts， and multiple semantic-similarity features. Five-fold cross-validation was used to evaluate the discriminative performance of each method against manual judgment. The optimal method was then applied to uniformly assess the pattern hallucination rates of five LLMs. ResultsIn method A， text2vec-large-chinese showed best overall performance， with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve （AUROC）， area under the precision-recall curve （PR-AUC）， F1-score， sensitivity， and specificity of 0.849， 0.884， 0.794， 0.801， and 0.691， respectively. In method B， the corresponding metrics of the rule-based syndrome-element Jaccard threshold method were 0.848， 0.851， 0.817， 0.845， and 0.684， respectively； those of the LLM-based syndrome-element Jaccard method were 0.872， 0.906， 0.795， 0.764， and 0.780， respectively. In method C， the multilayer perceptron （MLP） classifier showed the best overall performance， with AUROC， PR-AUC， F1-score， sensitivity， and specificity of 0.933， 0.951， 0.871， 0.857， and 0.846， respectively. Under the unified evaluation framework combining DeepSeek-R1 syndrome-element extraction and MLP classifier， the estimated pattern hallucination rates of the five LLMs ranged from 56.0% to 77.4%. ConclusionAmong the three automatic evaluation methods， Method C integrating syndrome-element discrepancy features and text semantic features using an MLP classifier showed the highest overall discriminative performance against manual judgment， and is more suitable for evaluating syndrome hallucinations in LLM-based TCM syndrome differentiation tasks.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors and their warning effectiveness for postoperative intestinal barrier dysfunction (IBD) in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 101 patients with sTBI admitted to Wuxi Branch of Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University from May 2020 to February 2023, including 63 males and 38 females, aged 21-81 years [(53.4±14.2)years]. All the patients underwent emergency surgery. The patients were divided into IBD group ( n=67) and non-IBD group ( n=34) according to whether or not they had IBD after surgery. The gender, age, basic diseases (hypertension and diabetes), types of intracranial hematoma (subdural, epidural, and intracerebral hematoma), preoperative Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), cerebral hernia, intraoperative initial intracranial pressure (iICP), operation time, removal of bone flap, treatment time in ICU, initiation time of enteral nutrition, and use of broad-spectrum antibiotics were recorded in the two groups. Univariate and multivariate binary Logistic regression analyses were conducted to assess the correlations between above-mentioned indicators and incidence of postoperative IBD in sTBI patients and determine the independent risk factors for sTBI. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the warning effectiveness of each risk factor for IBD. Results:The results of the univariate analysis showed that preoperative GCS, cerebral hernia, intraoperative iICP, removal of bone flap, treatment time in ICU, initiation time of enteral nutrition, and use of broad-spectrum antibiotics were significantly correlated with the incidence of IBD in sTBI patients ( P<0.05 or 0.01), while there were no correlations of IBD with gender, age, basic diseases, types of intracranial hematoma and operation time ( P>0.05). The results of the multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative GCS≤5 points ( OR=2.49, 95% CI 1.17, 5.32, P<0.05), intraoperative iICP>23 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)( OR=1.20, 95% CI 1.03, 1.39, P<0.05), and initiation time of enteral nutrition>24 hours ( OR=10.03, 95% CI 1.26, 80.21, P<0.05) were highly correlated with postoperative IBD in sTBI patients. The results of the ROC curve analysis showed that intraoperative iICP had the highest warning value (AUC=0.91, 95% CI 0.85, 0.96), followed by preoperative GCS (AUC=0.88, 95% CI 0.82, 0.95), and initiation time of enteral nutrition had the lowest warning value (AUC=0.78, 95% CI 0.69, 0.87). Conclusions:Preoperative GCS≤5 points, intraoperative iICP>23 mmHg, and initiation time of enteral nutrition>24 hours are independent risk factors for postoperative IBD in sTBI patients. The warning value of intraoperative iICP ranks the highest for postoperative IBD in sTBI patients, followed by preoperative GCS, with initiation time of enteral nutrition having the lowest warning value.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy and adverse effects of Shugan Hewei prescription combined with vonoprazan in the treatment of refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease （RGERD） due to qi depression and phlegm obstruction. MethodEighty RGERD patients who met the inclusion criteria underwent 24-hour pH impedance and high-resolution esophageal manometry and electronic gastroscopy. The 80 patients were randomly assigned to an observation group （Shugan Hewei prescription， one bag each time， twice a day + vonoprazan， 20 mg each time， once a day） and a control group （vonoprazan， 20 mg each time， once a day） by the random number table method. The treatment in both groups lasted for 4 weeks. The clinical efficacy was examined. The scores of TCM symptoms （pharyngeal discomforts such as phlegm obstruction， retrosternal discomfort， and belching）， somatic symptoms， quality of life， and improvement of esophageal mucosa under gastroscopy were observed in both groups before treatment and after treatment for 2 and 4 weeks. ResultSeventy-five patients completed the trial were included in this study， including 38 patients in the observation group and 37 patients in the control group. The total response rate in the observation group was 89.47%（34/38）， which was higher than that （62.16%，23/37） in the control group （χ²=13.014， P<0.01）. After treatment， the scores of esophageal mucous membrane， reflux disease symptoms， TCM symptoms， gastroesophageal reflux disease health-related quality of life scale （GERD-HRQL）， and somatic self-rating scale （SSS） decreased in both groups（P<0.05）. Moreover， the observation group outperformed the control group in alleviating heartburn， acid reflux， throat discomforts， midnight coughing， nausea and dry vomiting， mucousy mouth， and insomnia in the patients with GERD （P<0.05，P<0.01）. However， the two groups showed no statistically significant differences in the improvement of esophageal mucosa after treatment. ConclusionThe combination of Shugan Hewei prescription with vonoprazan was superior to vonoprazan alone in treating RGERD regarding clinical symptoms， physical signs， quality of life， and somatic symptoms， without causing obvious adverse effects.

Objective:To explore the value of application and manipulation technique of neuroendoscope in microsurgical clipping of ruptured posterior communicating artery(PCoA)aneurysms via keyhole approaches.Methods:From January 2018 to December 2020, the clinical data of 52 patients who received microsurgical clipping for ruptured via keyhole approach were retrospectively analysed. Forty-one patients had the intraoperative endoscopic monitoring. The supraorbital keyhole approach or pterional keyhole approach was applied based on the characteristics of the aneurysms. According to the in-surgery requirement, a 30° rigid neuroendoscope was used before and/or after clipping. All patients entered postoperative follow-up in outpatient clinic and were evaluated with the modified Rankin Scale(mRS).Results:All 52 patients had 52 ruptured PCoA aneurysms. Eighteen of the patients were treated via supraorbital keyhole approach and 34 via pterion keyhole approach. Pre-and post-clipping endoscopic observation were carried out in 12 cases and 29 only with post-clipping endoscopic observation. Residual aneurysmal neck was detected in 3 patients. Missed clipping of perforators was found in 2 patients and followed by proper adjustment of clips. All patients received follow-up angiographic examinations. Total obliteration of the aneurysm and an intact of internal carotid artery and PCoA were found in 41 patients by the intraoperative endoscopic observation. Two residual aneurysmal neck were detected in 11 patients without intraoperative endoscopic observation. After 11 to 45 months of follow-up, all patients had good recovery(mRS 0-1).Conclusion:It is a safe and effective method with endoscopic observation during microsurgical clipping procedure for ruptured PCoA aneurysms via keyhole approaches. It can effectively make up for the insufficient visual angle of microscope, realise the anatomical relationship between the aneurysm and adjacent structures, and avoid residual aneurysmal neck and an iatrogenic injury to the parent artery and perforators.
