OBJECTIVE To investigate the application status of prescription pre-review systems in healthcare institutions of Yunnan province, evaluate their system functions and management capabilities, and provide a practical basis for promoting rational drug use. METHODS A questionnaire survey was conducted among public healthcare institutions at or above the secondary level in Yunnan province to investigate the deployment status of the systems. A capability maturity assessment framework was constructed, encompassing 6 dimensions and 39 indicators, including real-time prescription review, prescription correlation review, rule setting, evidence-based information support, prescription authority management, and system operation management. This framework was then used to evaluate the institutions that had implemented the pre-review systems. RESULTS A total of 100 valid questionnaires were collected, with 37 institutions having adopted prescription pre-review systems, mainly tertiary hospitals. The system predominantly adopted a modular architecture and was embedded into the hospital information system through application programming interfaces and middleware, providing certain capabilities for real-time prescription risk identification. Evaluation results indicated that basic functions such as reviewing indications, contraindications, and drug compatibility performed well, while deficiencies remained in functions related to parenteral nutrition prescription, review of drug dosage for specific diseases, individual patient characteristic recognition, and rule setting. Moreover, the construction of review centers and establishment of management systems were also not well-developed. CONCLUSIONS The overall application rate of prescription pre-review systems in Yunnan province remains low. System functions and management mechanisms require further improvement. It is recommended to enhance information infrastructure in lower-level institutions and explore regionally unified review models to promote standardized and intelligent development of prescription review practices.

Neoadjuvant therapy has become the standard treatment for locally advanced resectable esophageal cancer, significantly improving long-term survival compared to surgery alone. Neoadjuvant therapy has evolved to include various strategies, such as concurrent chemoradiotherapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or targeted combination therapy. This enriches clinical treatment options and provides a more personalized and scientific treatment approach for patients. This article aims to comprehensively summarize current academic research hot topics, review the rationale and evaluation measures of neoadjuvant therapy, discuss challenges in restaging methods after neoadjuvant therapy, and identify the advantages and disadvantages of various neoadjuvant therapeutic strategies.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common and severe nephropathy syndromes in clinical practice and also one of the most common serious complications after organ transplantation, with high incidence and fatality. Iron is an essential trace element in the body. Ferroptosis is a form of programmed cell death induced by the accumulation of iron-mediated lipid peroxidation, and its occurrence is closely related to iron metabolism, lipid metabolism, amino acid metabolism and multiple signaling pathways. Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis plays a key role in the occurrence and development of AKI and provides therapeutic targets for AKI. This article summarizes the regulatory mechanism of ferroptosis and its role in AKI, as well as the compounds that play an important role in the prevention and treatment of AKI by inhibiting ferroptosis, providing new ideas for the future treatment and research of AKI.

Objective To explore the efficacy and technical points of complete preservation of female reproductive organ in radical cystectomy.Methods In 2020 and 2021,two female patients with bladder cancer undergoing radical cystectomy in The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University were selected.The clinical conditions of the patients were evaluated before surgery,and the reproductive organs were completely preserved according to the patients'wishes during the operation.The patients were regularly followed up after surgery.The efficacy and prognosis of patients were evaluated.Results The operation was successful and the two patients recovered well without surgery-related complications.The follow-up time for two patients were 22 months and 36 months.During the follow-up period,no tumor recurrence was found,and the scores of sexual function and quality of life were good.One patient was successfully pregnant at 17 months after surgery,and routine prenatal examination and non-invasive fetal DNA testing showed no abnormalities.Conclusions Under the premise of strictly grasping the surgical indications,the complete preservation of female reproductive organs in radical cystectomy can improve patients'quality of life after surgery,especially protect the reproductive function of women of childbearing age.
5.Definitions of Yin-Yang Based on Set Partitioning Theory
Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2024;65(24):2504-2509
This paper investigated the corresponding relationships between wuji (无极), taiji (太极), yin-yang (阴阳) and certain mathematical concepts, i.e. wuji directly corresponds to the empty set, the number 0 and the intial origin; taiji corresponds to the universe set, the number 1 and the unit circle; yin-yang directly corresponds to the binary opposition division of universe set, the combination of numbers or characters 0 and 1, and the binary division of unit circle (into upper and lower semicircles, or left and right semicircles). In addition, the definitions of set descrication, set partitioning, and the set of basic equations (in a generalised sense) for yin and yang were given. The relationships between two set equations
6.Relationships between the Primordial Bagua Diagram, Hetu( 《河 图》) and Luoshu( 《洛 书》) as well as the Manifested Bagua Diagram
Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2024;65(24):2510-2518
Based on the knowledge background of ancient Chinese technology, including odd-even numbers to yin-yang, diurnal (day-night) cycle and annual (four seasons) cycle, changes of solar light manifestation and land surface temperature, a method of deduction and verification for Hetu (《河图》) and Luoshu (《洛书》) was proposed in this paper. To ensure the scientific rigor of research, the equivalent numbers to yin-yang were defined, and the diurnal as well as annual cycle models under coordinate system were constructed. On this basis, the Hetu and the Luoshu were derived by means of the variation regulations of solar irradiance and surface atmospheric temperature within one day and one year, which provided a solid foundation for the correct comprehension and application of Hetu and Luoshu. In addition, it was proved that Hetu and Luoshu could be derived from each other by using the equivalent numbers to yin-yang, which means the feature of unity. Multiple equivalent numerical forms for Hetu and Luoshu were presented.
7.Relationships between the Primordial Bagua Diagram, Hetu( 《河 图》) and Luoshu( 《洛 书》) as well as the Manifested Bagua Diagram
Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2024;65(24):2519-2526
The primordial Bagua (eight trigrams) diagram derived from the eight combinations formed with three lines of yin-symbols and/or yang-symbols, as the hexagrams, with the yin-yang variation regulations of the hexagrams as the basis. The symbolic representations of primordial Bagua diagram, of binary numerical system, and of odd-even numbers to yin-yang and of all their interrelations were discussed. Similarly, the relationship between the primordial Bagua diagram and Hetu (《河图》) and Luoshu (《洛书》) were discussed. The logic of the primordial Bagua diagram and Hetu Luoshu is rigorous, reflecting the pattern of change of the solar irradiance and surface atmosphere temperature in the daily and yearly cycles, and they can be derived from each other, which explains the unity of the theoretical foundations of Chinese culture, including traditional Chinese medicine, at the root. In addition, the evolution process of the primordial to the manifested Bagua diagram was analyzed from two aspects, including concrete multi-factoral analysis and abstract coordinate rotation transformation. This paper also discussed interrelations involving the Hetu and Luoshu and the five phases, and also provided the unifying explanation for the following concepts of "the earth governs four seasons", "the earth governs four extremities", "the earth governs long summer".
8.Derivations of Hetu (《河图》), Luoshu (《洛书》), Primordial Bagua Diagram and Taiji Diagram Based on Yin-Yang Manifesting-Subduing Ascending-Descending Model
Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2024;65(24):2527-2538
This paper presented a unifying derivation based on the yin-yang manifesting-subduing ascending-descending model, leading to Hetu (《河图》), Luoshu (《洛书》), the primordial Bagua diagram, and taiji diagram. From the geometric generative models of concepts including wuji, taiji, yin-yang, three elements, four images and five phases, we discussed the yin-yang manifesting-subduing ascending-descending model with details, and further derived the basic model for expressing changes of yin-yang. Such yin-yang change basic model could be divided into discrete and continuous change. Discrete changes include quadratic, octonionic, and fractional models. Continuous changes include circular motion models and simple harmonic vibration models. From the quadratic model, the Hetu and Luoshu could be deduced. From the octonionic model, the primordial Bagua diagram, Hetu and Luoshu could be deduced. From the simple harmonic vibration model, taiji diagram and the basic laws of motion of yin and yang could be deduced. Finally, a logical framework for modern formulation of yin-yang theory was given.

Objective:To investigate the surgical treatment effect and prognostic factors of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.Methods:This is an ambispective cohort study. From August 2005 to December 2022,data of 510 patients who diagnosed with hilar cholangiocarcinoma and underwent surgical resection at the Hepatobiliary Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were retrospectively collected. In the cohort,there were 324 males and 186 females,with an age of ( M (IQR)) 63(13)years (range:25 to 85 years). The liver function at admission was Child-Pugh A (343 cases,67.3%) and Child-Pugh B (167 cases,32.7%). Three hundred and seventy-two(72.9%) patients had jaundice symptoms and the median total bilirubin was 126.3(197.6) μmol/L(range: 5.4 to 722.8 μmol/L) at admission. Two hundred and fourty-seven cases (48.4%) were treated with percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage or endoscopic nasobiliary drainage before operation. The median bilirubin level in the drainage group decreased from 186.4 μmol/L to 85.5 μmol/L before operation. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to identify the influencing factors for R0 resection,and Cox regression was used to construct multivariate prediction models for overall survival(OS) and disease-free survival(DFS). Results:Among 510 patients who underwent surgical resection,Bismuth-Corlett type Ⅲ-Ⅳ patients accounted for 71.8%,among which 86.1% (315/366) underwent hemi-hepatectomy,while 81.9% (118/144) underwent extrahepatic biliary duct resection alone in Bismuch-Corlett type Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients. The median OS time was 22.8 months, and the OS rates at 1-,3-,5-and 10-year were 72.2%,35.6%,24.8% and 11.0%,respectively. The median DFS time was 15.2 months,and the DFS rates was 66.0%,32.4%,20.9% and 11.0%,respectively. The R0 resection rate was 64.5% (329/510), and the OS rates of patients with R0 resection at 1-,3-,5-and 10-year were 82.5%, 48.6%, 34.4%, 15.2%,respectively. The morbidity of Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅲ-Ⅴ complications was 26.1%(133/510) and the 30-day mortality was 4.3% (22/510). Multivariate Logistic regression indicated that Bismuth-Corlett type Ⅰ-Ⅲ ( P=0.009), hemi-hepatectomy and extended resection ( P=0.001),T1 and T2 patients without vascular invasion (T2 vs. T1: OR=1.43 (0.61-3.35), P=0.413;T3 vs. T1: OR=2.57 (1.03-6.41), P=0.010;T4 vs. T1, OR=3.77 (1.37-10.38), P<0.01) were more likely to obtain R0 resection. Preoperative bilirubin,Child-Pugh grade,tumor size,surgical margin,T stage,N stage,nerve infiltration and Edmondson grade were independent prognostic factors for OS and DFS of hilar cholangiocarcinoma patients without distant metastasis. Conclusions:Radical surgical resection is necessary to prolong the long-term survival of hilar cholangiocarcinoma patients. Hemi-hepatectomy and extended resection,regional lymph node dissection and combined vascular resection if necessary,can improve R0 resection rate.
