Although symptomatic treatment is widely applied in clinical practice， it is often regarded as a relatively low-level therapeutic method. Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） state theory， the macroscopic， mesoscopic， and microscopic characterization parameters of TCM symptomatology are horizontally integrated， the full life cycle of states （pre-disease， incipient disease， manifest disease， post-disease） is vertically covered， and the cognitive system of "symptoms" is reconstructed from multiple dimensions. Accordingly， the application approach of symptomatic treatment at different state stages is proposed： implementing preventive intervention in the pre-disease state， strengthening the interception of disease progression in the incipient disease state， regulating dynamic development and treatment in the manifest disease state， and formulating a staged diagnosis and treatment strategy which focuses on functional rehabilitation in the post-disease state.

The correspondence between prescription and syndrome is the advantage and characteristic of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)treatment.However,the pathogenesis of clinical diseases is complex and the condition is changeable,and the clinical application is difficult to achieve the maximum effect under the existing cognition of the correspondence between prescription and syndrome.In this paper,the five categories of physiological characteristics,pathological characteristics,constitution,syndrome,and disease of the longitudinal classification of"TCM state"are introduced into the correspondence of prescription and syndrome.Under the vertical perspective of"TCM state",the theoretical connotation of the correspondence between prescription and syndrome is interpreted as"correspondence between prescription and state",namely correspondence of"prescription-physiological characteristics",correspondence of"prescription-pathological characteristics",correspondence of"prescription-constitution",correspondence of"prescription-syndrome",and correspondence of"prescription-disease".It is hoped to accurately grasp the corresponding connotation of the correspondence between prescription and syndrome,in order to deepen the clinical thinking mode of TCM.

Based on the"You Gu Wu Yun"theory in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),this paper believes that"Gu"in"You Gu Wu Yun"is extended to"state"from the perspective of"TCM state".In order to avoid the adverse reactions of TCM,the macro,meso,and micro three views should be used together,and macro,meso,and micro parameters should be integrated.We should also carefully identify the physiological characteristics,pathological characteristics,constitution,syndrome,and disease of human body by combining qualitative and quantitative method,highlighting the relationship between the prescription and the"state".The correspondence between prescription and the"state"will reduce the risk of adverse reactions of TCM.In this paper,we hope to focus on the guiding role of the"You Gu Wu Yun"theory in TCM research,to give full play to the characteristics and advantages of TCM,and to dialectically treat the role of TCM.

In the context of the complex and ever-changing spectrum of diseases, the traditional Chinese medicine compatibility of prescription and drugs is no longer able to fully meet the needs of clinical diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, this article is based on the diagnosis and treatment model of the combination of disease, syndrome, and symptom, combined with the development achievements of Western medicine, and explores the principles of formulating traditional prescriptions based on the combination of chief, deputy, assistant, and envoy. This article proposes a formulation principle of composing prescriptions with the diagnosis of syndrome as the chief, the diagnosis of disease as the deputy, the treatment of symptoms as the assistant, and the harmonization of medicine as the envoy. This forms a treatment plan with the core link of syndrome differentiation and treatment, disease differentiation and treatment, symptomatic treatment, detoxification, and efficacy enhancement. The purpose of this article is to address the current clinical challenges such as an increasing disease spectrum and the complexity of syndrome patterns and symptom clusters. It aims to provide new insights into traditional Chinese medicine clinical treatment plans and herbal formulation strategies, with the ultimate goal of improving the clinical effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To observe the motor capacity of patients early after cardiac surgery using a cardiopulmonary exercise test.Methods:Patients who had performed a cardiopulmonary exercise test within 3 months after cardiac surgery were included in this retrospective study. Patients who took the test within 30 days of the operation formed a discharge group ( n=20), those within 30 to 60 days and 60 to 90 days formed the one month and two month groups ( n=10 for both). The discharge group was further divided into an aortic surgery group ( n=9), a bypass surgery group ( n=6) and a valve surgery group ( n=5) according to their procedure. The exercise capacity of each person was measured in terms of the changes in heart rate and systolic pressure from the resting to the anaerobic threshold stage. Anaerobic threshold, peak oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide ventilation equivalent were also recorded. Results:All of the patients completed the cardiopulmonary exercise test above the anaerobic threshold, and no adverse events such as exercise accidents occurred. At the anaerobic threshold the average heart rate of the discharge group was (8.8±7.1)bpm, significantly lower than the averages of the one month and two months groups: (17.0±5.9) and (18.3±10.5)bpm respectively. The average anaerobic thresholds and peak oxygen uptakes of the 1 month and 2 months groups were not significantly different, but they were all significantly higher than the discharge group′s averages. There were, however, no significant differences among the groups in the average changes in their systolic pressure and carbon dioxide ventilation equivalent. Moreover, the average anaerobic threshold and peak oxygen uptake of the aortic surgery group and the bypass surgery group were significantly lower than the valve surgery group′s averages.Conclusions:Postoperative motor ability after cardiac surgery improves significantly for at least 30 days. Patients who have received aortic or bypass surgery have significantly lower exercise capacity than those after valve surgery.

Objective:To study the prevalence and correlates of plasma cytomegalovirus (CMV) viremia among newly reported antiretroviral therapy (ART)-naive HIV/AIDS patients in Taizhou during 2017-2018.Methods:CMV DNA was measured in plasma specimens of newly reported ART-naive HIV/AIDS patients by quantitative PCR. Both univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were carried out to evaluate CMV viremia correlations among the individuals.Results:Of 612 HIV/AIDS patients, 480 (78.4%) were male, 125 (20.4%) were over 60 years old, 177 (28.9%) were infected via homosexual transmission, and 430 (70.3%) via heterosexual transmission. The prevalence of CMV viremia among HIV/AIDS patients was 13.4% (82/612). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of CMV viremia in CD 4+ lymphocyte cells counts (CD 4+) ≤200 cells/μl group was higher than CD 4 counts >500 cells/μl ( OR=5.10, 95% CI:1.74-14.96, P=0.003); The median CMV DNA level (log 10) of 82 viremic patients was 1.57 ( P 25, P 75:1.04,2.13); Viremic patients with CD 4 counts ≤200 cells/μl had the highest CMV viral load ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Among ART-naive HIV/AIDS patients, the prevalence of CMV viremia was significantly associated with immunodeficiency status. Further research is needed to evaluate the association between CMV viremia and the course of HIV infection.

Objective:To understand the prevalence and correlates of plasma cytomegalovirus (CMV) viremia among HIV-infected individuals by Meta-analysis.Methods:A systematic literature retrieval was conducted by PubMed, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases for the information about the prevalence of plasma CMV viremia among HIV-infected individuals published from 2011 to 2020. Meta-analysis was used to calculate the pooled prevalence after literature screening and data extraction.Results:Fifteen studies were included, and the total sample size was 5 076. The random effect model showed that the pooled prevalence of CMV viremia among HIV-infected individuals was 26.2% (95% CI: 16.8%-35.6%, I2=99%); Subgroup analysis and Meta-regression showed that the sources of heterogeneity among different studies were: the proportion of individuals aged >30 years in sample, the proportion of homosexual transmission in the sample, the proportion of individuals whose HIV viral load > 10 4 copies/ml, the proportion of individuals whose CD4 +T lymphocyte counts <200 cells/μl. Conclusion:Among HIV-infected individuals, the prevalence of CMV viremia was high and might be associated with age, HIV transmission mode, the status of HIV/AIDS.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) with pre-operative intra-aortic balloon pump (P-IABP) implantation on short and long term prognosis in octogenarian patients of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: We performed aretrospectively study in octogenarian STEMI patients treated in our hospital from 2004-01 to 2014-08. The patients were divided into 2 groups: P-IABP group,n=24 and PPCI group,n=73 including 12 patients who received rescue IABP (R-IABP) because of intra- or post-procedural hemodynamic collapse as a subgroup.Major end point events included 1 month and 1-, 2-year post-operative death; major adverse cardiac and cerebral events (MACCE) included 1 month post-operative cardiac shock, new or worsening heart failure (HF), re-infarction and stroke. The predictors causing different endpoint events were identiifed by Cox proportional hazard model analysis. Results: 1 month and 1-, 2-year post-operative death were similar between 2 groups (8.3% vs 16.4%), (16.7% vs 24.7%), (25.0% vs 30.1%) respectively; MACCE incidence was also similar (20.8% vs 30.1%), allP>0.05. Death rates between P-IABP group and R-IABP subgroup were similar at different time points,P>0.05; while MACCE incidence in P-IABP group was lower than R-IABP subgroup (20.8% vs 66.7%),P=0.005 and it was mainly presented by reduced HF occurrence (8.3% vs 41.7%),P=0.003. Coxproportional hazard model analysis indicated that post-operative TIMI lfow<3 grade was the independent predictor for 1 month death (HR=4.79, 95% CI1.59-14.39,P=0.005), complicating diseases as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, kidney impairment and anemiawere themain independent predictors for 2-year death (HR=3.0, 95% CI 1.37-6.56,P=0.006). Conclusion: PPCI and P-IABP had no signiifcant differencefor short and long term survivalin octogenarianSTEMIpatients. Compared with R-IABP, P-IABP patients had the lower MACC Eincidence at 1 month post-operation .

Objective: To make long-term comparison of drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation betweenleft internal mammary artery (LIMA) graft and native vessel in patients with previous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Methods: A total of 151 patients with anterior wall ischemia because of previous CABG induced LIMA graft lesion who received percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in our hospital from 2004-07 to 2012-12 were retrospectively studied. The clinical, coronaryangiography (CAG) and follow-up conditions for DES implantation were analyzed;according to the target vessel, the patients were divided into 2 groups:LIMA group, n=40 and Native vessel (NV) group, which meant all segments of left main to left anterior descending arteries, n=111. Primary end points included target lesion revascularization (TLR), target lesion failure (TLF) as cardiac death, target vessel related non-fatal MI with the composition of TLR and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).
Results:The median follow-up time was 30 (10-100) months. The rates of TLR and TLF were similar between 2 groups:(15.0%vs 11.7%, log-rank P=0.65) and (17.5%vs 13.5%, log-rank P=0.63). MACE occurrence in LIMA group was higher than NV group (35.0%vs 18.0%, log-rank P=0.043) which was mainly presented by new non-target vessel revascularization as right coronary artery, left circumlfex and saphenous vein graft(17.5%vs 4.5%, log-rank P=0.014). Cox multivariate analysis indicated that target lesion stent length was the only independent predictor for both TLR (HR=1.03, 95%CI1.00-1.06, P=0.01) and TLF (HR=1.03, 95%CI1.00-1.05, P=0.02);whereas, LIMA-PCI was the only independent predictor for MACE occurrence (HR=3.09, 95%CI1.28-7.60, P=0.012).
Conclusion: The chances of TLR and TLF were similar inpatients with previous CABG by either LIMA or NV, while MACE occurrence was higher in LIMA patients which should be further investigated.
