Background: and Purpose Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is a severe complication associated with adverse functional outcomes and increased mortality rates. Currently, a reliable predictive model for sICH risk after EVT is lacking. Methods: This study used data from patients aged ≥20 years who underwent EVT for anterior circulation stroke from the nationwide Taiwan Registry of Endovascular Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke (TREAT-AIS). A predictive model including factors associated with an increased risk of sICH after EVT was developed to differentiate between patients with and without sICH. This model was compared existing predictive models using nationwide registry data to evaluate its relative performance. Results: Of the 2,507 identified patients, 158 developed sICH after EVT. Factors such as diastolic blood pressure, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, platelet count, glucose level, collateral score, and successful reperfusion were associated with the risk of sICH after EVT. The TREAT-AIS score demonstrated acceptable predictive accuracy (area under the curve [AUC]=0.694), with higher scores being associated with an increased risk of sICH (odds ratio=2.01 per score increase, 95% confidence interval=1.64–2.45, P<0.001). The discriminatory capacity of the score was similar in patients with symptom onset beyond 6 hours (AUC=0.705). Compared to existing models, the TREAT-AIS score consistently exhibited superior predictive accuracy, although this difference was marginal. Conclusions The TREAT-AIS score outperformed existing models, and demonstrated an acceptable discriminatory capacity for distinguishing patients according to sICH risk levels. However, the differences between models were only marginal. Further research incorporating periprocedural and postprocedural factors is required to improve the predictive accuracy.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the comprehensive value of novel oral anticoagulant drugs （NOACs） after major orthopedic surgery. METHODS The evaluation evidence was collected through literature research； evidence and value：impact on decision-making （EVIDEM） framework was introduced to integrate the evaluation process； the multi-criteria decision analysis （MCDA） method was used to construct a multi-dimensional evaluation system； the weights assigned to each evaluation criterion were determined by the combination of Delphi method and analytic hierarchy process， and the rivaroxaban， dabigatran and apixaban were comprehensively evaluated. RESULTS The clinical comprehensive evaluation system of NOACs after major orthopedic surgery was successfully established， and the final clinical comprehensive evaluation weights of NOACs （rivaroxaban， dabigatran， apixaban） after major orthopedic surgery were calculated， with scores of 0.399 7 for rivaroxaban， 0.244 4 for apixaban， and 0.355 9 for dabigatran， indicating that rivaroxaban demonstrated the highest overall clinical value. Among them， rivaroxaban had the highest weight score in the evaluation of pharmaceutical characteristics， cost-effectiveness and other attributes in a single dimension. In terms of efficacy and safety evaluation， apixaban had the highest weighting score. CONCLUSIONS Among NOACs， rivaroxaban is more suitable for routine anticoagulation management after major orthopedic surgery， especially in terms of pharmacological properties， cost-effectiveness and other attributes.

Objective To establish a new animal model of filum terminale traction tethered cord syndrome to explore its pathogenesis.Methods Sixteen New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into the traction group and the sham group,with 8 rabbits in each group.The traction group used silk thread to establish a model of filum terminale traction tethered cord syndrome,while the sham group only cut the filum terminale without traction.After 8 weeks,the behavioral Talov score,lumbosacral MRI examination,somatosensory evoked potential detection,urodynamic index test and pathological analysis were completed.Results At the 8th week after surgery,the hindlimb injury was obvious in the traction group,and the Talov scores at the 4th and 8th weeks after operation were lower than those in the sham group(P<0.001).The lumbosacral MRI results at 8 weeks after surgery showed that the distal filum terminale was pulled by silk thread,with bladder abnormal enlargement in sagital MRI in the traction group,while axial MRI showed the spinal cord within the spinal canal was subjected to mechanical forces in the downward and dorsal directions;the sagittal and axial MRI of the sham group showed that the spinal cord was located in the middle of the spinal canal and the bladder size was normal.At the 8th week after surgery,the amplitude in the traction group was significantly lower than that in the sham group(P<0.001),and the amplitude decreased by more than 50% .The overall latency period in the traction group was slightly longer than that in the sham group(P<0.05).The results of urodynamic examination showed that the maximum bladder capacity in the traction group was significantly higher than that in the sham group(Z=-3.361,P<0.001),the bladder pressure was significantly lower than that in the sham group(Z=-3.361,P<0.001),and the bladder compliance was significantly higher than that in the sham group(P<0.001).Pathological staining showed that the traction of the filum terminale on the spinal cord led to nerve tissue damage and degeneration of bladder epithelial cells.Conclusion This study successfully established a model of filum terminale traction tethered cord syndrome of New Zealand white rabbits,which can provide reference for exploring the pathogenesis of tethered cord and understanding the pathological process of spinal cord injury.

Objective To construct a diagnostic model based on the information of the TCM four diagnoses in hyperactive liver yang syndrome in patients with essential hypertension.Methods Syndromic investigation was carried out in patients with essential hypertension in some hospitals in Fujian and Beijing,and diagnostic information such as age,gender,symptoms,tongue and pulse were collected.On the basis of statistical analysis,this study adopted C5.0,CRT,CHAID and QUEST decision tree models respectively.After evaluating the stability and performance consistency of the models,the accuracy of the models was measured by diagnostic rate,and the optimal model of hyperactivity of liver yang in essential hypertension was selected.Results Totally 533 patients with essential hypertension were included,including 198 patients with hyperactive liver yang syndrome and 335 patients without hyperactive liver yang syndrome.The diagnostic rates of the four models were 75.2%,66.2%,67.7%and 65.0%,respectively.The diagnostic efficiency of C5.0 was better than that of CRT,CHAID and QUEST models."Aggravation after emotional excitement,poor complexion,string-like pulse,irritability,head swelling pain,bitter mouth,heavy pulse,fatigue,dark tongue,irritability,dizziness,thin pulse,yellow fur"could be regarded as the specific items of the syndrome model of hyperactive liver yang in essential hypertension.Conclusion The C5.0 decision tree model can clearly and intuitively identify the hyperactive liver yang syndrome in essential hypertension patients based on clinical TCM four diagnostic information data,and summarize diagnostic rules.

Cryoablation therapy with explicit anti-tumor mechanisms and histopathological manifestations has a long history.A large number of clinical practice has shown that cryoablation therapy is safe and effective,making it an ideal tumor treatment method in theory.Previously,its efficacy and clinical application were constrained by the limitations of refrigerants and refrigeration equipment.With the development of the new generation of cryoablation equipment represented by argon helium knives,significant progress has been made in refrigeration efficien-cy,ablation range,and precise temperature measurement,greatly promoting the progression of tumor cryoablation technology.This consensus systematically summarizes the mechanism of cryoablation technology,indications for oral mucosal melanoma(OMM)cryotherapy,clinical treatment process,adverse reactions and management,cryotherapy combination therapy,etc.,aiming to provide reference for carrying out the standardized cryoablation therapy of OMM.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the compositional differences between Fructus Tritici Levis and Triticum aestivum， and to provide reference for identification and quality control of both. METHODS Twenty batches of Fructus Tritici Levis and three batches of T. aestivum were collected， and their fingerprints were acquired by high-performance liquid chromatography and the similarities were evaluated by the Evaluation System of Similarity of Chromatographic Fingerprints of Traditional Chinese Medicine （2012 version）. Cluster analysis （CA）， principal component analysis （PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA） were performed to analyze the difference of Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum from different regions， and the differential components were screened. The contents of the six identified components in Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum were determined. RESULTS The similarities of the fingerprints of Fructus Tritici Levis ranged from 0.928 to 0.996， and the relative similarities of T. aestivum with Fructus Tritici Levis ranged from 0.761 to 0.773. A total of 19 common peaks were calibrated， and six components including linolenic acid， linoleic acid， 5-heptadecylresorcinol， 5-nonadodecylresorcinol， 5- heneicosylresorcinol， and 5-tricosylresorcinol were identified. The results of CA and PCA showed that Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum could be clearly distinguished； the distribution of Fructus Tritici Levis from Anhui province was relatively concentrated. The results of OPLS-DA showed that linolenic acid， linoleic acid， and other six unknown compounds were the differential components between Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum. The average contents of the six identified components in Fructus Tritici Levis were 0.100 9， 1.094 0， 0.005 1， 0.030 9， 0.098 2，and 0.024 8 mg/g， respectively； the contents of linolenic acid and linoleic acid in Fructus Tritici Levis were significantly higher than those in T. aestivum （P＜0.05）.CONCLUSIONS The established qualitative and quantitative methods are simple and reliable， and can be used for the identification and quality evaluation of Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum. The identified differential components， such as linolenic acid and linoleic acid， can also provide clues for the differentiation and pharmacological study of Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum.

Talents are the main force for the development of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）， and the construction of TCM talents and the reformation of talent evaluation system are essential to promote the inheritance and innovation of TCM. At present， we are still exploring and developing in the fields of the formulation， implementation and evaluation indicators of TCM talent evaluation system. However， there are shortcomings and difficulties. For instance， insufficient stratification in the evaluation， excessive emphasis on the quantity of achievements， neglecting the quality of the achievements and the actual contribution， imperfect assessment indicators， and the weak characteristics of TCM. Therefore， national ministries and commissions have jointly issued a document requesting to break the four only and set a new standard， in order to promote the construction of a scientific and technological talent evaluation system oriented by innovation value， ability and contribution. For the evaluation of TCM clinical talents， China Association for Science and Technology commissioned China Association of Chinese Medicine to build the China Clinical Cases Library of TCM（CCCL-TCM）， which aims at collecting the most authoritative and representative TCM clinical cases and exploring the advantages of applying clinical cases as masterpiece of achievement in TCM clinical talents evaluation. CCCL-TCM can promote the construction of a talent evaluation system that is more in line with the development characteristics of TCM industry， and to carry out relevant pilot in TCM colleges and institutions across the country in order to promote the reformation of TCM talent evaluation system.
