The Guidelines for Construction of Traditional Chinese Medicine Pharmacovigilance Systems in Medical Institutions （T/CACM 1563.2-2024） were the first special guideline in China to systematically assist medical institutions in establishing a pharmacovigilance system tailored to the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. This guideline was jointly developed with 23 authoritative medical and research institutions in China， under the lead of the Institute of Basic Clinical Medicine， China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences. The purpose of this guideline was to standardize pharmacovigilance work throughout the entire lifecycle of TCM （including research and development， marketing， and application） and to establish a four-dimensional framework of "organizational structure， institutional system， information platform， and vigilance activities". Key components included the establishment of a TCM Safety Committee， the construction of nine core systems， the development of an information platform that complies with International Council for Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use （ICH） E2B standards， alongside the risk monitoring， identification， assessment， and control during clinical trials and post-marketing phases. Therefore， this guideline filled a significant gap in the systemic standards for TCM safety management within medical institutions. Strictly adhering to domestic and international laws and regulations， the guideline compilation involved multiple rounds of expert interviews， systematic evidence integration， and broad consensus. This guideline was specified to be applicable to medical institutions at all levels， primarily addressing core issues， including the difficulty in adverse reaction identification， low reporting rates， and incomplete risk management chains due to the complex composition and diverse application of TCM. The compilation process was scientific and rigorous， ensuring alignment with current national laws and regulations， and was registered internationally. In the future， implementation will be promoted through standardized training， tiered dissemination， as well as a post-effect evaluation and dynamic revision mechanism starting two years after publication. All these aimed to enhance medical institutions' proactive capabilities in preventing and controlling TCM safety risks， ensure patient medication safety， and promote the high-quality development of TCM.

Objective To investigate the protective effect and potential mechanism of kinsenoside （KD）-the main ingredient of Anoectochilus roxburghii （AR） on alcoholic liver injury in mouse models of chronic and acute alcoholic liver injury, and provide a theoretical basis for the development of drugs for alcoholic liver injury. Methods Chronic and acute alcoholic liver injury mouse models were induced by feeding liquid diet containing 30% alcohol and gavage of high doses of alcohol （6 g/kg）, respectively. The KD （50 mg/kg） and AR （250 mg/kg） were administrated by intragastric administration. Body weight, liver index, serum alanine aminotransferase （ALT）, aspartate aminotransferase （AST） levels, serum total triglyceride （TG） and cholesterol （TC） levels were measured; hematoxylin-eosin and oil red O staining was performed on liver tissues; lipid metabolic related genes （PPARα and SREBP1） expression levels were detected by QPCR. Results Both models of alcoholic liver injury resulted in increased hepatic transaminase activity and elevated lipids, accompanied by massive vacuolar structure and lipid droplet formation in pathological liver sections. In the chronic alcoholic liver injury model, ALT and AST were significantly reduced after KD or AR treatment （P<0.05, P<0.001）; the transcriptional activity of SREBP1 was significantly reduced after KD or AR treatment （P<0.01, P<0.05）. In the acute alcoholic liver injury model, AST was significantly reduced after KD or AR treatment （P<0.01, P<0.01）, and TG level was significantly decreased （P<0.01, P<0.01）. Conclusion KD, as the main active ingredient of AR, played a major role in hepatoprotection in mice. KD treatment significantly alleviated chronic and acute alcoholic liver injury and reduced the lipid deposition in liver; KD promoted lipolysis by increasing PPARα and inhibiting the expression of SREBP1 to reduce the synthesis and accumulation of lipids, thus exerting its role in regulating lipid metabolism, which suggested that KD, as the active ingredient of AR, could be a potential drug for the treatment of ALD.

Tic disorders in children refer to the neurodevelopmental disorders usually occurring in childhood and adolescence.Guided by the theory of five-zang-organ correlation,Professor Li Yirui approaches the treatment of tic disorders in children and comorbidities primarily from the perspective of liver-spleen disharmony,and points out that the pathogenesis is due to liver-spleen disharmony,wind-phlegm disturbance,and mutual involvement of the five zang organs.In clinical practice,Professor Li established the therapeutic principle of regulating the liver and spleen,extinguishing wind,and resolving phlegm,and adopted the four liver-regulating methods(calming liver,soothing liver,clearing liver,and softening liver)to extinguish wind and stop tics,as well as the four spleen-regulating methods(replenishing spleen,activating spleen,awakening spleen,and dredging spleen)to strengthen body resistance and support healthy qi.The self-formulated Fupi Xifeng Decoction(composed of Pseudostellariae Radix,Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma,Poria,Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma,Bupleuri Radix,Paeoniae Radix Alba,Uncariae Ramulus cum Uncis,Gastrodiae Rhizoma,Pinelliae Rhizoma Praeparatum,Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium,Os Draconis,etc.)serves as the basic formula,herbs directing to the affected regions were flexibly used,and insect drugs were occasionally adopted for refractory cases.The treatment for tic disorders in children focus on simultaneous regulation of the five zang-organs by modified use of herbs for dispersing wind and benefiting lung,tranquilizing heart and calming spirit,and supplementing liver and kidney to address comorbidities and secondary symptoms.Additionally,integrated internal-external treatment,relieving the discomforts physically and mentally,and family-centered comprehensive care are also taken into account to achieve optimal outcomes.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate precise assessment methods for predicting the optimal acetabular cup size in total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS: A clinical data of 73 patients (80 hips) who underwent primary THA between December 2022 and July 2024 and met the inclusion criteria was analyzed. There were 39 males and 34 females with an average age of 66.3 years (range, 56-78 years). Among them, 66 cases were unilateral THA and 7 were bilateral THAs. There were 29 patients (34 hips) of osteoarthritis, 35 patients (35 hips) of femoral neck fractures, and 9 patients (11 hips) of osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Based on anteroposterior pelvic X-ray films, three methods were employed to predict acetabular cup size, including preoperative template planning, radiographic femoral head diameter (FHD) measurement, and intraoperative FHD measurement. The predicted acetabular cup sizes from these methods were compared with the actual implanted sizes. RESULTS: The predicted acetabular cup sizes using the preoperative template planning, radiographic FHD measurement, and intraoperative FHD measurement were (51.25±2.81), (49.72±3.11), and (49.90±2.74) mm, respectively, compared to the actual implanted cup size of (50.57±2.74) mm, with no significant difference ( P>0.05). Regarding agreement with the actual implanted cup size, the preoperative template planning achieved exact matches in 35 hips (43.75%), one-size deviation in 41 hips (51.25%), and two-size deviations in 4 hips (5%); the radiographic FHD measurement achieved exact matches in 12 hips (15%), one-size deviation in 57 hips (71.25%), and two-size deviations in 11 hips (13.75%); and the intraoperative FHD measurement achieved exact matches in 26 hips (32.5%), one-size deviation in 52 hips (65%), and two-size deviations in 2 hips (2.5%). There were significant differences in agreement distributions between the three methods and the actual implanted cup sizes ( H=18.579, P<0.001). CONCLUSION The intraoperative FHD measurement, as a simple, cost-effective, and accurate method, effectively guides acetabular cup selection, reduces the risk of prosthesis wear, enhances postoperative joint stability.

The pharmaceutical industry faces challenges in quality digitization for complex multi-stage processes, especially in small-sample systems. Here, an intelligent quality prediction and diagnostic (IQPD) framework was developed and applied to Tong Ren Tang's Niuhuang Qingxin Pills, utilizing four years of data collected from four production units, covering the entire process from raw materials to finished products. In this framework, a novel path-enhanced double ensemble quality prediction model (PeDGAT) is proposed, which combines a graph attention network and path information to encode inter-unit long-range and sequential dependencies. Additionally, the double ensemble strategy enhances model stability in small samples. Compared to global traditional models, PeDGAT achieves state-of-the-art results, with an average improvement of 13.18% and 87.67% in prediction accuracy and stability on three indicators. Additionally, a more in-depth diagnostic model leveraging grey correlation analysis and expert knowledge reduces reliance on large samples, offering a panoramic view of attribute relationships across units and improving process transparency. Finally, the IQPD framework integrates into a Human-Cyber-Physical system, enabling faster decision-making and real-time quality adjustments for Tong Ren Tang's Niuhuang Qingxin Pills, a product with annual sales exceeding 100 million CNY. This facilitates the transition from experience-driven to data-driven manufacturing.

Objective To identify the taste critical quality attribute and design and optimize the flavor-correcting formulation of the traditional Chinese medicine oral preparation Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid,in order to improve its taste and enhance patient medication adherence.Methods The taste assignment method was employed to identify the taste critical quality attribute of Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid.Based on human sensory evaluation and the standardized Euclidean distance in electronic tongue analysis,suitable types of corrigent were determined.Subsequently,under constraints such as maximum allowable dosage,solubility,and sweetness,the optimal taste formulation for the sugar-free intermediate of Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid was determined using Box-Behnken experimental design combined with electronic tongue and human sensory evaluation results.The study was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine(Ethics Approval Number 2020BZYLL0609).Results The quantitative score for bitter taste of Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid accounted for 30.36%,confirming bitterness as the taste critical quality attribute requiring attention.The optimal taste formulation for the sugar-free intermediate of Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid was determined to be 120 mg·mL?1 erythritol,12 mg·mL?1 acesulfame potassium,and 2.4 mg·mL?1 stevioside.This formulation achieved an 11.75-point improvement in sensory evaluation scores compared to the original commercially available oral liquid.Conclusion This study successfully improved the taste of Qingre Jiedu Oral Liquid and established a comprehensive strategy for flavor-correcting formulation optimization,including a method for identifying taste critical quality attribute.This strategy provides a referential paradigm for palatability enhancement of similar traditional Chinese medicine oral preparations,laying a crucial technical foundation for elevating the clinical value of Chinese herbal medicines and promoting the high-quality development of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).
