Guishenwan （GSW）， originating from Jingyue Quanshu （Zhang Jingyue's Complete Works）， is a classic traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） formula with a history of over 400 years. Designed for kidney essence deficiency syndrome， it is clinically applied to treat diseases associated with essence-blood deficiency， such as ovarian insufficiency diseases in women， oligospermia-induced infertility in men， and lumbar disc herniation. Numerous studies have confirmed its significant efficacy and advantages in managing ovarian insufficiency diseases， including diminished ovarian reserve （DOR）， premature ovarian insufficiency （POI）， and premature ovarian failure （POF）. According to recent literature， the therapeutic mechanisms of GSW in treating ovarian insufficiency diseases involve regulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis （HPOA） function， ameliorating reproductive endocrine disorders， improving ovarian function， modulating relevant signaling pathways， and exerting immunoregulatory and anti-inflammatory effects. A review of GSW in clinical treatment revealed that clinical applications of GSW， particularly in combination with Western medicine， not only alleviate symptoms but also compensate for the limitations of hormone replacement therapy， thereby reducing recurrence， minimizing adverse reactions， and enhancing safety. This review aims to provide a scientific basis for the rational clinical use of GSW in ovarian insufficiency diseases， offer innovative TCM strategies for developing novel ovarian-protective drugs， promote the integration of TCM and Western medicine in reproductive medicine， and ultimately contribute a Chinese approach to global management of ovarian insufficiency diseases.

Objective: To analyze the one year follow up changes and influencing factors of anisometropia among primary school students in Beihai, so as to provide data support for formulating targeted prevention and control strategies. Methods: In 2023 and 2024, visual acuity and refractive screening were conducted on primary school students in Beihai. A cohort matching method was used based on unique identifiers to link data from 2023 (baseline) Grades one to five with those from 2024 (follow up) Grades two to six, obtaining a total of 59 743 complete datasets. McNemar test and generalized estimating equations(GEE) model were employed to analyze the changing patterns of anisometropia. Results: The detection rate of anisometropia among primary school students in Beihai increased from 10.88% in 2023 to 12.30% in 2024 ( χ 2=97.12, P <0.01). Among them, the detection rate in Grade 1 decreased from 8.82% in 2023 to 7.50% in 2024, Grade 3 increased from 10.15% to 11.52%, Grade 4 increased from 12.10 % to 15.22%, Grade 5 increased from 14.61% to 17.88% ( χ 2=16.51,18.03,95.52,95.95,all P <0.05). The GEE results showed that the risk of anisometropia development was higher in girls than in boys ( OR =1.15), the risk of anisometropia increased by 16% with each 1 year increment in age ( OR =1.16) among primary school students, the risk of anisometropia development in Grade 5 was 2.20 times higher than that in Grade 1 ( OR =2.20)(all P <0.05). In lower grades, only the baseline anisometropia status in lower grades had a statistically significant effect on anisometropia among primary school students( OR =59.09), while the positive effects of gender and age difference gradually emerged and strengthened in middle and higher grades (all P ＜0.05). Conclusions The detection rate of anisometropia among primary school students in Beihai shows dynamic changes and influencing factors vary by grade level. It is necessary to develop stratified prevention and control strategies tailored to different grades.

AIM: To compare the diagnostic efficiency of binocular uncorrected distance visual acuity(UCDVA), pre-cycloplegia refraction spherical equivalent(PR-SE), axial length(AL)difference, and their different combinations in the screening of anisometropia in children and adolescents, and to evaluate the practical value of different indicator combinations in simplifying the screening process when taking cycloplegic retinoscopy results as the gold standard for diagnosing anisometropia.METHODS: This was a retrospective study. A total of 500 consecutive cases of children and adolescents aged 6-18 years with known refractive status were included. Taking cycloplegic retinoscopy results as the gold standard for anisometropia diagnosis, the binocular UCDVA, PR-SE, and AL difference were incorporated into ROC curve analysis to assess the diagnostic efficacy of each indicator. Furthermore, predictive models were constructed and reliability analysis was performed.RESULTS: The average age of the included cases was 10.75±2.24 years, including 239 males and 261 females. The AUC of the interocular PR-SE difference(0.972, 95%CI: 0.960-0.984)was significantly higher than that of other indicators. The Youden index was the largest when the bincular UCDVA difference was 0.25, the PR-SE difference was 0.743, and the AL difference was 0.31. When the interocular PR-SE difference used 0.743 and 1.00 D as screening cutoffs, the former had a higher AUC(AUC=0.924, 95%CI: 0.895-0.953). Comparison of different constructed predictive models showed that when the binocular PR-SE difference was ≥0.743 D, the negative predictive value reached 98.89%, making it suitable for initial screening. The combination of UCDVA+PR-SE+AL had the highest specificity and positive predictive value, while the PR-SE+AL combination had the highest consistency rate.CONCLUSION: The binocular PR-SE difference is the best choice for single-indicator screening. Combining UCDVA and AL can increase the specificity to 98.00% and the positive predictive value to 88.24%. The PR-SE+AL combination can achieve the highest consistency rate.

Objective To establish a brucellosis monitoring and testing technique applicable for the rapid field screening of natural epidemic diseases.Methods A rapid testing technique for Brucella was developed based on a double-antibody sandwich testing model using gradient-variant quantum dots as fluorescent tracers.The sensitivity,linearity,precision,and specificity of the technique were evaluated using suspensions of standard Brucella strains.Methodological comparisons across different sample types were conducted to assess the consistency of the test results.Results The gradient-variant quantum dots detection method was evaluated with standard Brucella strains,exhibiting a sensitivity of 1×103 CFU/mL and a linear correlation coefficient(r)of 0.994(95%CI,0.933-1.055).The maximum coefficient of variation was 12.94%in repeated tests,showing good specificity.A comparative assessment of 305 clinical samples was conducted using the Brucella gradient-variant quantum dots detection method,the Rose Bengal plate agglutination test(RBT),and the serum agglutination test(SAT),yielding a Kappa value of 0.95,indicating almost perfect agreement.Additionally,a comparative assessment of 110 environmental samples collected on-site was conducted using the Brucella gradient-variant quantum dots detection method and quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR).The Kappa values for aerosol collection fluid,surface wipes,and wool samples were all above 0.83,demonstrating near-perfect agreement.For fecal and soil samples,the Kappa values were above 0.62,indicating substantial agreement.Conclusion The Brucella detection method based on gradient-variant quantum dots technology is simple and can be conducted rapidly.The detection method demonstrates high sensitivity,linearity,precision,and specificity.It shows consistent performance in clinical sample testing.It is well-suited for field rapid screening of natural epidemic diseases in field settings and shows good application prospects in the monitoring,prevention,and rapid detection of zoonotic diseases.

Objective To explore the methods of continuing education for advanced endoscope operations by diges-tive specialists through the establishment and teaching effect evaluation of the ERCP(endoscope retrograde cholan-giopancreatography)introductory training mode.Methods A total of 26 trainees from 3 sessions of the ERCP intro-ductory training courses at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from September 2023 to September 2024 were in-cluded.The teaching effects of the training courses and its 5 modules were subjectively and objectively evaluated by questionnaires,on-site tests and evaluations by senior ERCP operators.Results Through the ERCP introductory training courses,the trainees'self-evaluated proficiency in duodenoscope structure(pre-training:2.4±2.4,post-training:8.2±1.5,P＜0.001),duodenoscope operation(pre-training:1.2±2.2,post-training:6.6±1.8,P＜0.001),papillary cannulation(pre-training:0.5±1.3,post-training:5.4±1.8,P＜0.001),intra-bile duct operation(pre-training:0.2±0.6,post-training:4.9±2.1,P＜0.001),and identification of intra-bile duct lesions(pre-training:1.7±2.1,post-training:6.0±2.0,P＜0.001)was significantly improved.The accuracy rate of the trainees'theoretical tests and picture recognition before training was 37.2％and then increased up to 62.8％after training.Before training,all trainees were considered by senior operators as not ready to start ERCP training on real patients,while after training,69.2％(18/26)of the trainees were considered ready to start ERCP training on real patients.Conclusions The multi-module ERCP introductory training courses have a significant effect in terms of laying a foundation for trainees to start ERCP training on patients and of providing a reference for the con-tinuing education mode of advanced endoscope operations for digestive specialists in China.

AIM: To evaluate the value of the ratio of axial length to corneal radius of curvature(AL/CR)in the diagnosis of myopia in children and adolescents.METHODS: The refraction and ocular biometric parameters of 2 182 cases of children and adolescents(4 364 eyes)who initially visited the optometry clinic of the Second People's Hospital of Beihai from January 2022 to December 2023 were collected and analyzed.RESULTS: The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC curve)showed that AL/CR had a higher area under the curve(AUC=0.925, 95%CI: 0.917-0.933)in diagnosing myopia. When AL/CR was 3.053, the Youden index was the largest. As the threshold of AL/CR decreased, the sensitivity of myopia diagnosis increased, while the specificity decreased. Compared with screening myopia, the sensitivity of AL/CR=3.053 in diagnosing myopia was low, but the specificity was high, especially in the cases of hyperopia and pre-myopia.CONCLUSION: The accuracy of AL/CR in diagnosing myopia is superior to that of axial length and average corneal curvature, with higher specificity. As the threshold of AL/CR decreases, the sensitivity of diagnosing myopia increases, but the specificity decreases. In cases of hyperopia and pre-myopia, the specificity of AL/CR in diagnosing myopia is higher than that of screening myopia.

Objective To observe the effect of ultrasound-guided iliopsoas plane block(IPB)on the quality of postoperative recovery in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty.Methods Sixty patients who underwent hip arthroplasty were selected,37 males and 23 females,aged 40-79 years,BMI 18-30 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ.The patients were divided into two groups by random number table method:the iliopsoas plane block group(group IPB)and the femoral nerve block(FNB)group(group FNB),30 pa-tients in each group.Before anesthesia induction,IPB was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 10 ml and lat-eral femoral cutaneous nerve block was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 5 ml in group IPB.And FNB was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 10 ml and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 5 ml in group FNB.The dosages of propofol,remifentanil,and cis-atracurium during operation were recorded.The quality of recovery-15(QoR-15)scale was evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively 1 day,2 and 3 days.The max VAS(VASmax)pain score and manual muscle test(MMT)score of quadri-ceps muscle were recorded 12,24,and 48 hours after surgery.The time of getting out of bed for the first time,opioid dosage,and patient satisfaction were recorded.The incidence of nerve injury,vascular injury,puncture site infection,and local anesthetic poisoning were recorded.The postoperative complications of diz-ziness,nausea and vomiting,deep vein thromboses,and elirium were also recorded.Results There was no significant difference in the dosage of propofol,remifentanil,and cis-atracurium between the two groups.Compared with group FNB,the QoR-15 scale score in group IPB was significantly higher 1 day,2 and 3 days after operation(P＜0.05).Compared with group FNB,the MMT scores of quadriceps muscle was sig-nificantly higher in group IPB 12 and 24 hours after surgery(P＜0.05),and the first time of getting out of bed was shortened in group IPB(P＜0.05).However,there were no significant differences in the VASmax pain score,MMT score of quadriceps muscle 48 hours after surgery,opioid dosage,and patient satisfaction between the two groups.No nerve block related complications were found in both groups.There were no sig-nificant differences in postoperative complications between the two groups.Conclusion The iliopsoas plane block can improve the quality of postoperative recovery and accelerate the recovery of patients with hip re-placement,and the effect is better than that of femoral nerve block.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) performed by endoscopists for solid pancreatic lesions requiring tissue for immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining with different approach of endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA).Methods:After screening 1 573 cases who underwent EUS-TA operation at the Endoscopy Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital between August 2018 and October 2022, a total of 65 cases of solid pancreatic lesions whose diagnosis rely on IHC staining was collected and summarized with clinical data of each case. Among 65 cases, there were 46 cases of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs), 13 cases of pancreatic solid pseudo-papillary tumors (SPTs), and 6 cases of lymphomas and mesenchymal. Patients were categorized into ROSE group (36 cases) and non-ROSE group (29 cases) according to the presence or absence of endoscopists performed ROSE during EUS-TA operation. They were further divided into subgroups of FNA-ROSE (26 cases), FNB-ROSE (10 cases), FNA-non-ROSE (24 cases) and FNB-non-ROSE (5 cases) according to the type of EUS-TA. Diagnostic accuracy and IHC success rate were compared between different groups and subgroups. Binomial logistic multifactorial regression analysis was used to evaluate the influence of ROSE and EUS-TA type on diagnostic accuracy and IHC success rate.Results:There were no statistically significant differences between ROSE group and non-ROSE group in terms of age, gender, bilirubin level, CA19-9 level, lesion site, lesion size, composition ratio of diagnosis, and surgical rate. The differences in mean size of lesions, needle gauge, location of puncturation, and number of needle pass between subgroups were not statistically significant. The diagnostic accuracy was 88.9% in ROSE group and 79.3% in non-ROSE group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.023). The diagnostic accuracy of FNA-ROSE group was higher than that of FNA-non-ROSE group (88.5% vs 75.0%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.100). The differences in diagnostic accuracy and success rate of IHC between FNB-ROSE group and FNB-non-ROSE group were not statistically significant. Binomial logistic multifactorial regression analysis did not reveal any independent influences on diagnostic accuracy. Conclusions:ROSE performed by endoscopists improved diagnostic accuracy of EUS-TA in solid pancreatic lesions requiring IHC staining, and therefore is potentially valuable for improving the diagnostic efficiency of EUS-TA for such diseases.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab combined with zanubrutinib in the treatment of refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods:A prospective observational study was conducted. A total of 10 patients with refractory DLBCL admitted to Beijing Chaoyang District Third Ring Cancer Hospital, a specialist medical consortium of Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from November 2020 to February 2023 were prospectively collected. All the 10 refractory DLBCL patients at least received first-line systemic therapy containing rituximab; and they were given tislelizumab 200 mg, intravenous infusion, on day 1 and zanubrutinib 160 mg, orally, twice a day, day 1-day 21, with 21 days as 1 cycle; 6 patients received second-line therapy and 4 patients received ≥ third-line therapy. Subsequent regimens were added with rituximab (375 mg/m 2, intravenous infusion on day 1). The primary endpoint will be reached 12 months after enrollment if there was no disease progression or other events that were scheduled to withdraw from the study. The therapeutic efficacy was summarized at the end of the follow-up in March 2023. Kaplan-Meier method was used to make survival analysis and the adverse reactions were summed up. Results:There were 6 males and 4 females, all at stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ; and age [ M ( Q1, Q3)] was 55 years (50 years, 69 years). All 10 patients completed 90 cycles of treatment with tislelizumab and zanubrutinib, with the cycle number of 8 cycles (2 cycles, 24 cycles). The follow-up time was 19 months (11 months, 28 months); 4 cases achieved complete remission, 3 cases achieved partial remission and 1 case had the stable disease. The progression-free survival was 8.5 months (1.3 months, 27.0 months); the median remission duration time and median overall survival time were not reached. Treatment-related adverse reactions included 2 cases of neutropenia, 1 case of anemia, and 1 case of elevated alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, all of which were grade 1-2. Conclusions:Tislelizumab combined with zanubrutinib has good clinical efficacy and safety in the treatment of refractory DLBCL.
