In recent years， with the extensive application of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） both domestically and internationally， safety concerns associated with TCM have been frequently reported. Notably， some TCM substances traditionally regarded as ''non-toxic'' have exhibited significant adverse reactions during clinical use， drawing substantial attention to TCM safety. This study first analyzed the risk factors contributing to the potential toxicity of TCM from perspectives such as drug properties， individual constitution， and clinical medication practices. Subsequently， it proposed research strategies and methodologies for investigating potential TCM toxicity： ① conduct studies under the guidance of TCM theory， adhering to the principle of diversity and unity. ② adopt an integrated research paradigm of ''originating from clinical practice-syndrome-based foundation-returning to clinical practice-serving supervision''. ③ implement a three-tier technical system of ''Mathematical modeling-high-throughput screening via liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry （LC-MS）-systems biology'' to systematically elucidate the causes， material basis， and mechanisms of toxicity. Finally， scientific regulatory recommendations for potential TCM toxicity are proposed： ① establish a multidimensional prevention and control system addressing drug properties， physical constitution factors， and clinical medication practices. ② address the impact of modern processing techniques on the safety of new TCM drugs. ③ strengthen the revision of standards for Chinese medicinal materials to ensure their safety. ④ account for disease-syndrome combination animal models and interspecies differences in safety assessment outcomes. This study aims to overcome critical challenges in TCM regulation by advancing evaluation through research and driving research through evaluation. By establishing a high-level scientific regulatory framework， it seeks to not only safeguard clinical medication safety but also propel the high-quality development of the TCM industry， thereby providing scientific support for the inheritance and innovative evolution of TCM.

Pyroptosis is an identified programmed cell death that has been highly linked to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) dynamics. However, the crucial proteins for modulating dynamic ER membrane curvature change that trigger pyroptosis are currently not well understood. In this study, a biotin-labeled chemical probe of potent pyroptosis inducer α-mangostin (α-MG) was synthesized. Through protein microarray analysis, reticulon-4 (RTN4/Nogo), a crucial regulator of ER membrane curvature, was identified as a target of α-MG. We observed that chemically induced proteasome degradation of RTN4 by α-MG through recruiting E3 ligase UBR5 significantly enhances the pyroptosis phenotype in cancer cells. Interestingly, the downregulation of RTN4 expression significantly facilitated a dynamic remodeling of ER membrane curvature through a transition from tubules to sheets, consequently leading to rapid fusion of the ER with the cell plasma membrane. In particular, the ER-to-plasma membrane fusion process is supported by the observed translocation of several crucial ER markers to the "bubble" structures of pyroptotic cells. Furthermore, α-MG-induced RTN4 knockdown leads to pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2)-dependent conventional caspase-3/gasdermin E (GSDME) cleavages for pyroptosis progression. In vivo, we observed that chemical or genetic RTN4 knockdown significantly inhibited cancer cells growth, which further exhibited an antitumor immune response with anti-programmed death-1 (anti-PD-1). In translational research, RTN4 high expression was closely correlated with the tumor metastasis and death of patients. Taken together, RTN4 plays a fundamental role in inducing pyroptosis through the modulation of ER membrane curvature remodeling, thus representing a prospective druggable target for anticancer immunotherapy.

The Occupational Classification Dictionary of the People's Republic of China (2015 Edition) has added a new occupation type, Medical Nursing Assistants, aiming to meet the strong demand for medical care in the context of the aging population in China.In order to standardize the services of medical nursing assistants for the elderly in home and community settings and contribute to healthy aging, the National Health Commission issued the " Service Standards for Medical Nursing Assistants of Older Adults in Home and Community" ( WS/ T 803—2022) on September 28, 2022.The standards regulate the service processes, service items and requirements, as well as service evaluation and improvement for elderly medical nursing assistants.The interpretation of the standard's formulation background, the compilation process, and the standard's content are as follows.

Objective To generalize and summarize the types,content elements,outcome measures,application effects,and safety monitoring of the infant-cued behavior-based feeding,so as to provide guidance for the clinical application and research in the future.Methods The literature was retrieved from PubMed,CINAHL,CNKI,and Wanfang Data-base,with a retrieval timeframe from database establishment to August 20,2024.The included literature was sum-marized and analyzed.Results A total of 28 studies were included,of which 15 were randomized controlled trials,7 were quasi-experimental studies,and 6 were observational studies.The infant-cued behavior-based feeding pattern could be categorized as ad libitum feeding,demand feeding,semi-demand feeding,and behavioral cue-based feeding.The content elements included assessment,supporting strategies,and advancement of oral feeding.The infant-cued behavior-based feeding pattern had a positive impact on feeding and developmental outcomes,immune function,rate of complications and length of hospital stay in preterm infants.The safety monitoring consisted of heart rate,blood oxygen saturation,blood sugar,and daily weight gain.Conclusion It is beneficial to implement the infant-cued behavior-based feeding pattern in preterm infants,which leads to better clinical outcomes.To support its implementation in clinical practice,we need to validate and enhance the application value of the feeding pattern in the future by concentrating on clinically individual differences,refining feeding intervention programs,improving effect evaluation and safety monitoring.

Clostridioides difficile infection（CDI）is a common cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea，posing a significant burden on global healthcare systems.Clostridioides difficile（C.difficile）spreads through spores outside the body，germinates and grows into vegetative cells in the intestines，and releases toxins to cause disease.Bile acids are crucial metabolites in the gut，where primary and secondary bile acids play important roles throughout the lifecycle of C.difficile.This article reviews bile acids metabolism，their impact on C.difficile，and how they influence CDI treatment through antibiotics and fecal microbiota transplantation（FMT）.The aim is to provide new insights and reference for clinical management and research of CDI.

Objective:To systematically identify and summarize the best available evidence on feeding management during the peridischarge period for very low birth weight infants (VLBWI) and extremely low birth weight infants (ELBWI), providing a reference for clinical nursing practice.Methods:Evidence on feeding management for VLBWI/ELBWI during the peridischarge period was retrieved from decision support systems, guideline repositories, major databases, and relevant professional organizations' websites. Sources included clinical decisions, guidelines, evidence summaries, systematic reviews, expert consensus documents and so on. The search spanned from database inception to April 2024. Guidelines were reviewed by four researchers, while other documents were screened and appraised by two researchers.Results:A total of 24 documents were included: six clinical decision tools, four guidelines, three systematic reviews, three evidence summaries, and eight expert consensus statements. A total of three primary themes, 10 secondary themes, and 49 best evidence items were synthesized. These covered: pre-discharge feeding management (establishing a peridischarge feeding team, parental feeding education, assessing feeding status of VLBWI/ELBWI, evaluating parental feeding competence, preparing feeding materials/environment and assessing community resources) ; discharge feeding management (providing feeding-related medical records and developing individualized feeding plans) ; post-discharge feeding management (setting growth and development goals, conducting follow-up and growth monitoring, and supplementing necessary nutrients) .Conclusions:The summarized best evidence provides a practical reference for healthcare professionals to effectively implement feeding management for VLBWI/ELBWI during the peridischarge period. Evidence-based strategies should be selectively applied in clinical practice based on individual conditions to ensure a successful transition to home feeding and support healthy growth and development of VLBWI/ELBWI.
