Rheumatoid arthritis （RA） is a common chronic systemic autoimmune disease with synovitis as the main manifestation， which often causes joint swelling and pain or even deformity. It is considered to be an incurable lifelong disease. Although the current Western medicine treatment can alleviate the progression of the disease， it has the clinical limitations of liver injury， cardiovascular complications， and other adverse reactions， along with easy recurrence. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has a long history and has the advantages of individualized treatment and fewer adverse reactions. It can effectively relieve the symptoms of joint swelling and pain in RA patients and slow down the progression of bone destruction， which has attracted wide concern in the medical community. Janus kinase （JAK）/signal transducer and activator of transcription （STAT） signaling pathway is an important intracellular pathway involved in cell proliferation， differentiation， apoptosis， immune regulation， and other biological behaviors， and plays an important role in the pathophysiological process of RA. In recent years， many studies have confirmed that TCM monomers and compounds can inhibit inflammation and angiogenesis by regulating the JAK/STAT signaling pathway， induce apoptosis and inhibit proliferation of fibroblast-like synoviocytes （FLS）， regulate immune response， and thus exert an effect in the treatment of RA. However， there is still a lack of comprehensive and systematic induction and overview. Therefore， by searching the relevant literature in China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI） and PubMed databases from 2009 to 2024， this study described the mechanism of the JAK/STAT signaling pathway in the occurrence and development of RA and summarized the research progress of TCM monomers and compounds in regulating the JAK/STAT signaling pathway in RA intervention. The study aims to provide new ideas and strategies for the clinical treatment of RA with TCM and the research and development of new drugs.

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 evaluate the intra-rater and inter-rater consistency of GRBAS and CAPE-V in Chi-nese context.Methods Five experts used the"Voice Assessment Assistant"APP to evaluate voice samples extrac-ted from The Sixth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital Pathological Voice Database V1.0.Fifty-two cases were used for inter-rater consistency analysis,and 38 cases were used for intra-rater consistency assessment.Intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC)was used for intra-rater and inter-rater consistency analysis of CAPE-V,while Cohen's Kappa method was applied for intra-rater consistency analysis of the five features of GRBAS.Inter-rater consistency analysis for GRBAS used Fleiss Kappa method,and Spearman's correlation analysis was conducted for the same features in both scales.Results The results of intra-rater consistency analysis showed that all six fea-tures of CAPE-V exhibited high consistency,with ICC coefficients of overall severity(OS)=0.80,roughness(R)=0.69,breathiness(B)=0.77,strain(S)=0.75,pitch(P)=0.74,and loudness(L)=0.78.For GRBAS,ex-cept for the features G(0.48)and S(0.45)which showed weaker intra-rater consistency,the rest of the features had poor intra-rater consistency.The results of inter-rater consistency analysis showed that the ICC correlation coef-ficients for all features of CAPE-V were greater than 0.85,indicating a high degree of consistency in the scoring of each feature by different raters.For GRBAS,except for the feature G(correlation coefficient=0.48),the rest of the features had correlation coefficients less than 0.40,indicating that the inter-rater consistency was poor for all features except G.When evaluating the same sample with both GRBAS and CAPE-V,the Spearman correlation co-efficients for the overall voice quality OS/G,roughness R,breathiness B,and strain S were 0.89,0.85,0.91,and 0.91,respectively,suggesting a high degree of correlation between the scoring results of the four features in the two scales.Conclusion In the auditory perceptual assessment of Chinese voice samples,the CAPE-V scale has higher intra-rater and inter-rater consistency compared to the GRBAS scale and is more suitable for clinical practice.

Objective To explore the correlation between hyponatremia at admission and all-cause mortality within one year after discharge in elderly patients with intestinal obstruction.Methods The 331 cases of elderly patients with intestinal obstruction(aged ≥ 60 years)who visited the General Surgery Department of Nanjing Meishan Hospital from January 2017 to December 2020 were selected as the research objects for retrospective cohort study analysis.According to the patient's blood sodium level at admission,they are divided into two groups:the hyponatremia group(Na＜135 mmol/L)and the non hyponatremia group(Na≥135 mmol/L).Divided into death group and survival group based on whether death occurred within one year after discharge.SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Independent sample t test,x2 test,Kaplan Meier method,and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to observe the correlation between admission hyponatremia and all-cause mortality within one year after discharge in elderly patients with intestinal obstruction.Results A total of 331 patients were enrolled.The incidence of hyponatremia was 32.3％,and 56 deaths occurred within one year,accounting for 16.92％.The one-year mortality rate in the hyponatremia group was 23.4％(25/107),which was higher than 13.8％(31/224)in the non hyponatremia group.The difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The survival analysis(Kaplan Meier)results showed that the survival rate of the hyponatremia group was lower than that of the non hyponatremia group(Log Rank P＜0.05).After adjusting for other confounding factors in multivariate Cox regression analysis,hyponatremia(HR=1.88,95％CI:1.07-3.29)was an independent risk factor for one-year all-cause mortality in elderly patients with intestinal obstruction(P＜0.05).Conclusion Hyponatremia at admission is an independent risk factor for all cause mortality in elderly patients with intestinal obstruction within one year after discharge.

Standardized reporting is a crucial factor affecting the use of patient guidelines （PGs）， particularly in the reporting and presentation of recommendations. This paper introduced the current status of PG reporting， including the research on PG content and presentation formats， and provided comprehensive recommendations for PG reporting from aspects such as overall framework， recommendations， presentation format， and readability. First， the presentation of PG recommendations should include clearly defined clinical questions， recommendations and their rationale， and guidance on how patients should implement the interventions； for specific content in the PG， such as level of evidence， level of recommendation， it is recommended to explain in text the reasons for giving different levels of recommendation， i.e.， to present the logic behind giving the level of recommendation to the patient； additional information needed in the recommendation framework should be supplemented by tracing references or authoritative textbooks and literature that support the recommendations. Subsequently， the PG text should be written based on the Reporting Checklist for Public Versions of Guidelines （RIGHT-PVG） reporting framework. Finally， to enhance readability and comprehension， it is recommended to refer to the Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool （PEMAT） for translating PG content. To enhance the readability of PGs， it is suggested to present the PG content in a persona-lized and layered manner.

Since the concept of patient versions of guidelines （PVGs） was introduced into China， several PVGs have been published in China， but we found that there is a big difference between the concept of PVG at home and abroad， and the reason for this difference has not been reasonably explained， which has led to ambiguity and even misapplication of the PVG concept by guideline developers. By analyzing the background and purpose of PVGs， and the understanding of the PVG concept by domestic scholars， we proposed the term patient guidelines （PGs）. This refers to guidelines developed under the principles of evidence-based medicine， centered on health issues that concern patients， and based on the best available evidence， intended for patient use. Except for the general attribute of providing information or education， which is typical of common health education materials， PGs also provide recommendations and assist in decision-making， so PGs include both the patient versions of guidelines （PVG） as defined by the Guidelines International Network （GIN） and "patient-directed guidelines"， i.e. clinical practice guidelines resulting from the adaptation or reformulation of recommendations through clinical practice guidelines.

At present， the process and methodology of patient guidelines （PGs） development varies greatly and lacks systematic and standardised guidance. In addition to the interviews with PG developers， we have sorted out the relevant methodology for the adaptation and development of existing clinical practice guideline recommendations and facilitated expert deliberations to achieve a consensus， so as to finally put forward a proposal for guidance on the process and methodology for the development of PGs. The development of PGs can be divided into the preparation stage， the construction stage， and the completion stage in general， but the specific steps vary according to the different modes of development of PGs. The development process of Model 1 is basically the same as the patient version of the guideline development process provided by the International Guidelines Network， i.e.， team formation， screening of recommendations， guideline drafing， user testing and feedback， approval and dissemination. The developer should also first determine the need for and scope of translating the clinical practice guideline into a patient version during the preparation phase. Model 2 adds user experience and feedback to the conventional clinical practice guideline development process （forming a team， determining the scope of the PG， searching， evaluating and integrating evidence， forming recommendations， writing the guideline， and expert review）. Based on the different models， we sort out the process and methods of PG development and introduce the specific methods of PG development， including how to identify the clinical problem and how to form recommendations based on the existing clinical practice guidelines， with a view to providing reference for guideline developers and related researchers.
