Atherosclerosis （AS） is the main pathological basis of cardiovascular diseases and seriously threatens human quality of life. Its prevention and treatment urgently need breakthroughs. The inflammatory response， which runs through the physiological and pathological evolution process of AS， is one of the important mechanisms for AS occurrence. Currently， the treatment methods for AS in Western medicine are relatively mature. However， they have adverse reactions such as abnormal liver and kidney function， drug tolerance， target vessel restenosis， and stent thrombosis， which remain the key bottleneck restricting clinical efficacy. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， characterized by multiple components， multiple targets， and multi-pathway synergy， shows unique clinical application potential and efficacy advantages in the intervention of AS. This article reviewed the research progress of TCM in intervening in AS by regulating inflammatory-related signaling pathways， such as nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB）， Toll-like receptors （TLRs）， mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， and Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription （JAK/STAT）， in the past five years. It summarized the combined mechanism of action of TCM monomers， TCM pairs， and compound preparations in inhibiting the inflammatory cascade reaction through multiple targets， regulating lipid metabolism disorders， and improving vascular endothelial dysfunction and the imbalance of the microenvironment. It deepened the research on the molecular mechanism of TCM in anti-AS， so as to provide a scientific basis for the clinical transformation application and related theoretical research of TCM in anti-AS.

Rheumatoid arthritis （RA） is a common autoimmune disease characterised clinically by symmetrical joint pain， swelling， and stiffness. Long-term chronic synovial inflammation can lead to severe joint damage and even disability， thereby affecting quality of life for patients. Current clinical treatment of RA emphasises an integrated approach combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine， with traditional Chinese medicine offering certain advantages in reducing disease activity of RA， preventing relapses， and other aspects. Modern clinical evidence confirms that Guizhi Shaoyao Zhimutang （GSZT） is effective in improving symptoms such as immune metabolism， joint stiffness， and joint pain in RA patients. Pharmacological studies have revealed that GSZT primarily contains components such as cinnamaldehyde， total glucosides of paeony， total alkaloids of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata， glycyrrhetinic acid， zingiberone， isoimperatorin， ephedra polysaccharides， and cedrol. It improves RA symptoms via multiple mechanisms and targets， including enhancing immune responses， exerting anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects， regulating relevant signalling pathways， inhibiting cell apoptosis， and suppressing bone destruction. This paper reviewed the syndrome patterns and pharmacological basis of GSZT in the treatment of RA， as well as its clinical applications and related mechanisms， thereby providing a theoretical basis and reference for the further development and utilisation of GSZT in the treatment of RA.

Objective To observe the effects of general anesthesia with remazolam on electrophysiological monitoring indicators and cerebral oxygen saturation(ScO2)in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy(CEA).Methods Patients who underwent elective CEA from July 2022 to June 2024 in neurosurgery department of our hospital were randomly divided into the ramazolam group(R group)and the propofol group(P group).Patients in both groups were given propofol 1.5 to 2.0 mg/kg,cisatracurium 0.1 to 0.2 mg/kg,and sufentanil 0.3 to 0.4 μg/kg for anesthesia induction.Anesthesia maintenance:patients in the R group received intravenous infusion of remifentanil 0.5 to 1.0 mg·kg-1·h-1,while patients in the P group received intravenous infusion of propofol 5.0 to 7.0 mg·kg-1·h-1.Both groups received intravenous infusion of remifentanil 0.1 to 0.2 μg·kg-1·min-1 for anesthesia maintenance.The operation time,carotid artery occlusion time,intraoperative infusion volume,remifentanil and norepinephrine dosage,and awakening time of patients in the two groups were recorded.The hemodynamic and cerebral oxygen indicators,amplitude and latency of evoked potentials before anesthesia(T0),after anesthesia(T1),5 minutes before blockade(T2),5 minutes after blockade(T3),5 minutes after unblocking(T4)and at the end of surgery(T5)of patients in the two groups were observed and compared,and the total incidence of postoperative complications was followed up and calculated.Results Compared with the P group,the dosage of intraoperative norepinephrine of patients in the R group was reduced(P<0.05),and the awakening time was shortened(P<0.05).At T2,the average arterial pressure(MAP)of patients in the R group was higher than that in the P group(P<0.05).At T3,the ScO2 of patients in the R group was significantly higher than that in the P group,and the percentages of prolonged latency and decreased amplitude of motor evoked potentials(MEP)were significantly lower than those in the P group(P<0.05),the percentage of decreased amplitude of lower limb somatosensory evoked potentials(SSEP)was lower than that in the P group(P<0.05);At T5,the MEP amplitude of patients in the R group was significantly increased compared to that at T2,while the MEP amplitude of patients in the P group was significantly decreased compared to that at T2,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion As a general anesthesia maintenance drug,remazolam can achieve satisfactory anesthesia effects for CEA,with more stable intraoperative hemodynamics,and less impact on ScO2 and evoked potential monitoring during carotid artery occlusion compared to propofol,resulting in higher safety.

Hematologic malignancies,such as lymphoma,myeloma,and myeloid neoplasms,can occur in extramedullary tissues.Traditional histopathological morphology and immunohistochemical staining have lim-itations,including time-consuming specimen processing,prolonged reporting cycles,and relatively low sensi-tivity in cases of limited cell numbers.Flow cytometry offers significant advantages in detecting tissue sam-ples,such as rapid processing,shorter reporting cycles,and high accuracy and sensitivity,making it an effective complement to histopathological and immunohistochemical methods.However,the application of flow cytome-try in tissue sample detection currently lacks standardized protocols for sample collection and preservation,single-cell suspension preparation,antibody panel design for limited samples,data analysis,and result repor-ting.To promote the standardized application of flow cytometry in detecting hematologic tumor cells in tissue samples,the Cell Analysis Professional Committee of the Chinese Society of Biotechnology organized experts to develop the Chinese Expert Consensus on Flow Cytometry for Detecting Hematologic Tumor Cells in Tis-sue Samples(hereinafter referred to as the Consensus).This Consensus elaborates on the technical aspects of flow cytometry for tissue sample detection,covering sample processing,antibody panel design,data analysis,reporting content,and quality management.It particularly emphasizes recommended antibody panels and data analysis methods for flow cytometry when tissue sample cell counts are low.This article aims to interpret the key points of the Consensus to facilitate its better application in clinical practice.

The reform of payment based on disease diagnosis related grouping (DRG) is an important measure to deepen the medical security system. Its implementation will have a profound impact on the operation and management of public TCM hospitals from four aspects: medical service efficiency, cost, quality, and medical resource allocation. At the same time, there are also difficulties in reform, such as the contradiction between personalized diagnosis and treatment in TCM and standardized payment in DRG 2.0, compatibility issues between TCM medical record data and DRG 2.0 grouping system, limitations of special case negotiation mechanism, and difficulty in cost control and accounting. In response, this study formulated targeted strategies and recommendations intended to facilitate the effective implementation of the DRG 2.0 payment system, and bolster the operational and administrative efficacy of public TCM hospitals, culminating in a favorable scenario of tripartite synergy among "healthcare providers, insurers, and patients".
