OBJECTIVE To provide scientific reference for perfecting the record-filing management policy of traditional Chinese medicine preparations formulated via traditional processes for medical applications (hereinafter referred to as “TCM preparations”) in medical institutions, and further promote the sound development of the research and record-filing work of such preparations. METHODS A literature review combined with cross-sectional research was carried out. We collected policy documents and preparation information related to the record-filing of TCM preparations issued by national and provincial drug administration authorities on official websites during 2018-2025. A comparative analysis was conducted on the implementation and revision of core policy documents for the registration management of TCM preparations across provinces, the scope of record-filing dosage forms, conditions for rejection of record-filing, and exemptions for registration materials. Statistical analysis on the quantity and dosage forms of record-filing preparations in each province was conducted by means of data induction and trend chart plotting, and targeted suggestions were put forward to optimize the management pathway of record-filing. RESULTS CONCLUSIONS There was obvious heterogeneity in record-filing policies among provinces. Twelve provinces refined the applicable dosage forms for record-filing, fifteen provinces supplemented conditions for rejection of record-filing (16 items in total), and nine provinces expanded the scope of material exemptions. The number of recorded preparations presented a striking regional imbalance:Qinghai had the largest quantity of 4 269 varieties, while Hainan only had 14 varieties, with a gap of more than 300 times. The recorded preparations were mainly traditional dosage forms including pills (6 928 varieties) and powders (4 360 varieties). Only 12 provinces formulated the provincial catalog for TCM preparations allocation. In most regions, preparation circulation was only permitted within medical consortia, leading to a low transformation rate of scientific and technological achievements of preparations. It is recommended to optimize the record-filing management pathway from three aspects: strengthening policy standardization while maintaining flexibility, streamlining record-filing procedures and documentary requirements, and reinforcing technical support and achievement transformation. These measures can reduce regional policy differences, improve work efficiency of record-filing, and advance the standardized development and clinical value transformation of hospital-made TCM preparations.

Objective:To analyze the epidemic characteristics and trends of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in Shaanxi Province, and provide a basis for formulating control strategies.Methods:The information on VL cases in Shaanxi Province from January 2012 to December 2024 were obtained from the Shaanxi Provincial Infectious Disease Reporting Management System, and demographic data were collected from the Shaanxi Statistical Yearbook. Descriptive epidemiological method was used to analyze the prevalence and the distribution by the three dimensions (time, region, and population). Joinpoint 4.9.1.0 software and Geoda 1.6 software were used for regression analysis and spatial clustering analysis, respectively. SuperMap 8C software was used for visualization.Results:From January 2012 to December 2024, a total of 304 cases of VL were reported in Shaanxi Province, with an annual incidence rate of 0.06/100 000. VL cases occurred in all months of the year in Shaanxi Province with no significant seasonality, yet the onset was predominantly concentrated from April to August(52.30%, 159/304). The majority of cases were male (61.51%, 187/304), aged 5 months to 4 years (17.11%, 52/304), and farmers (67.11%, 204/304). A total of 54 districts (counties, cities) of 10 cities in the province had reported cases, mainly concentrated in Weinan City (49.34%, 150/304). Joinpoint regression analysis revealed a significant overall upward trend in the VL incidence rate in Shaanxi Province from 2012 to 2024 [average annual percent change (AAPC) = 12.60%, 95% confidence interval ( CI): 6.01% - 19.62%, t = 3.95, P < 0.001]. The year 2020 was identified as a turning point in the trend. The incidence rate showed a rapid upward trend from 2012 to 2020 [annual percent change (APC) = 23.75%, 95% CI: 13.33% - 35.12%, t = 5.62, P < 0.001]. Global spatial autocorrelation analysis indicated significant positive spatial autocorrelation in VL incidence in 2012, 2014, 2015, 2018, and 2022 (Moran's I > 0, Z > 1.96, P < 0.05). Local spatial autocorrelation analysis identified 12 "high-high" clustering areas from 2012 to 2024, mainly located in Shangluo City in southern Shaanxi Province, and Weinan City and Yan'an City in northern Shaanxi Province. Conclusions:From 2012 to 2024, VL cases in Shaanxi Province are predominantly male farmers. The incidence of VL shows an overall upward trend, with significant spatial clustering. The prevention and control situation is severe. It is imperative to strengthen control measures, including vector disinfection and health education, to effectively control the spread and transmission of VL.
