OBJECTIVE To explore a model for constructing a platform for medical institution formulation and provide insights for promoting their development. METHODS By systematically reviewing the development status and challenges of medical institution preparations in China， and based on the theory of industry-university-research collaborative innovation， the organizational structure， collaborative processes， and safeguard mechanisms of the platform were designed. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Medical institution formulations in China mainly faced challenges such as weak research and development （R&D） capacity， uneven quality standards， and blocked transformation pathways. This study established a full-chain， whole- industry collaborative innovation network covering the government， medical institutions， universities/research institutes， pharmaceutical enterprises， and the market， forming a new “government-industry-university-research-application” five-in-one platform model for medical institution formulations. By establishing mechanisms such as multi-entity collaborative cooperation， full- chain intellectual property management， contribution-based benefit distribution， staged risk-sharing， and third-party evaluation， the model clarified the responsibilities and collaborative pathways of all parties. The new model highlights the whole-process transformation of clinical experience-based prescriptions， enabling precise alignment between clinical needs and technological R&D， as well as between preparation achievements and industrial transformation. While breaking down the barriers of traditional platform construction， it effectively achieves optimal resource allocation and complementary advantages， addresses problems emerging in the development of medical institution preparations， and provides reference value for the formulation of relevant systems.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical efficacy and mechanism of Bupi Qingfei prescription （BPQF） in treating stable bronchiectasis in the patients with syndromes of lung-spleen Qi deficiency and phlegm-heat accumulation in the lungs. MethodsA randomized， double-blind， placebo-controlled trial was conducted. Patients were randomized into BPQF and placebo control （PC） groups. On the basis of conventional Western medicine treatment， the BPQF granules and placebo were respectively administered at 10 g each time， twice a day， for a course of 24 weeks. The TCM symptom scores， Quality of Life Questionnaire for Bronchiectasis （QOL-B） scores， lung function indicators， T lymphocyte subsets， level of inflammatory factors in the sputum， level of neutrophil elastase （NE） in the sputum， and occurrence of adverse reactions were observed before and after treatment in the two groups. ResultsA total of 64 patients completed the study， encompassing 32 in the BPQF group and 32 in the PC group. After treatment， the BPQF group showed decreased TCM symptom scores （P<0.01）， increased QOL-B scores （P<0.01）， and declined levels of tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α and NE （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The PC group showed decreased TCM symptom （except spleen deficiency） scores （P<0.01）， increased the QOL-B health cognition and respiratory symptom domain scores （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and a declined TNF-α level （P<0.01）. Moreover， the BPQF group had lower TCM symptom （except chest tightness） scores （P<0.05， P<0.01）， higher QOL-B （except treatment burden） scores （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and lower levels of interleukin-6 and TNF-α （P<0.05） than the PC group. Neither group showed serious adverse reactions during the treatment process. ConclusionBPQF can ameliorate the clinical symptoms of stable bronchiectasis patients who have lung-spleen Qi deficiency or phlegm-heat accumulation in the lungs by regulating the immune balance and inhibiting airway inflammatory responses.

Background: Influenza A virus (IAV) is a negative-sense RNA virus of the Orthomyxoviridae family and is the etiological agent of a highly contagious acute respiratory disease that can lead to acute lung injury. Objective: To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of IAV infection, an integrative research approach combining gene expression profiling, multinetwork analysis, and in vivo experimental validations was employed. Methods: First, a series of network-based analyses were performed, including protein-protein interaction network construction, weighted gene co-expression network analysis, and subsequent gene set enrichment analysis, to identify the major underlying mechanisms of IAV infection. Following gene expression analysis, core targets, both direct and indirect regulators, were screened. An IAV (H1N1) strain A/PR/8/34-induced acute lung injury mouse model was constructed for in vivo validations. Batch one included two groups to evaluate findings from the multi-network analysis: Mock (n = 10; 5 males and 5 females) and IAV (n = 10; 5 males and 5 females). Batch two included three groups to assess the role of toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) in IAV infection: Mock (n = 6; 3 males and 3 females), IAV (n = 6; 3 males and 3 females), and TLR3 inhibitor (n = 6; 3 males and 3 females). Body weight was measured on days 0, 3, and 5 after infection. On day 5, lung tissues were collected to assess viral load and histopathological changes. Key targets were examined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining, both in sera and lung tissues. Results: IAV infection was significantly associated with dysregulation of the immune-inflammation system, such as the LTR, nucle-otide-binding oligomerization domain-(NOD) like receptor, retinoic acid-inducible gene I-like receptor, and nuclear factor kappa-B signaling pathways. Gene set enrichment analysis further indicated that the TLR and necroptosis signaling pathways played crucial roles in the progression of IAV infection (TLR signaling pathway normalized enrichment score = 2.3941, P = 1.00 × 10 ⁻¹⁰; necroptosis normalized enrichment score = 1.9421, P = 6.21 × 10 ⁻⁷). Among the core targets, TLR3 and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) may regulate gene expression at the transcriptional level (all P < 0.05). In vivo validation using an IAV (PR8) infected acute lung injury mouse model demonstrated increased viral load and lung index, alveolar structural damage, and inflammatory cell infiltration. Immunofluorescence staining exhibited large gaps in Lamin B1 staining and breaches in Emerin signals following IAV-PR8 infection. Expression levels of TLR3, p-receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 3 (RIPK3)/RIPK3, and p-mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL)/MLKL proteins in lung tissues, as well as proinflammatory factors and mediators in sera, were significantly elevated after IAV infection. Moreover, enhanced neutrophil infiltration (myeloperoxidase) and citrullinated histone H3 (a neutrophil extracellular trap-specific marker), both established indicators of neutrophil extracellular trap formation, were observed. Notably, treatment with a TLR3 inhibitor significantly ameliorated IAV-induced acute lung injury by regulating necroptosis-related targets. Conclusion: Our study provides network-based in vivo evidence that TLR3-receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 3-MLKL-mediated necroptosis may underlie IAV-induced acute lung injury and could serve as a potential therapeutic target in severe influenza cases.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of surgical resection and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) treatment for China liver cancer staging (CNLC) Ia hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at difficult-to-reach locations.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 114 patients with CNLC Ia HCC at Ⅶ、Ⅷ、Ⅳb or Ⅰ segments that were difficult-to-reach locations who were admitted to People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University from December 2018 to December 2023. Among the patients, 85 were males and 29 were females, aged (58.1±1.0) years. The patients were divided into two groups: a RFA group with 31 cases and a surgical resection group with 83 cases. Compare the levels of alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) before and after surgery, the surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative complications, recurrence free survival rate, and cumulative survival rate between the two groups.Results:The comparison of age, gender, ALT, and AST between the two groups showed no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). The differences in ALT and AST levels before and after surgery in the RFA group were (134.8±38.7) U/L and (195.1±53.9) U/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the surgical resection group [(226.8±17.9) U/L and (229.5±16.2) U/L] ( t=-2.45 and -1.12, P=0.016 and 0.041). The RFA group had shorter operation time [(69.2±11.7) min vs. (210.6±8.9) min], less intraoperative blood loss [(8.7±3.8) ml vs. (238.6±20.8) ml], and shorter postoperative hospital stays [(6.4±1.0) d vs. (13.1±0.4) d] compared to the surgical resection group, with all differences statistically significant (all P<0.05). The overall complication rates were 19.4% (6/31) in the RFA group and 22.9% (19/83) in the surgical resection group, showing no significant difference ( χ2=0.16, P=0.685). No statistically significant diffe-rence was found in recurrence-free survival rates between the two groups ( χ2=0.13, P=0.717). Similarly, there was no statistically significant difference in cumulative survival rates between the groups ( χ2<0.01, P=0.978). Conclusion:For HCC at CNLC Ⅰa in challenging locations, RFA demonstrated shorter operation time and postoperative hospital stay, less intraoperative bleeding, and superior liver function recovery compared with surgical resection, while no significant difference was observed in survival outcomes between the two treatment groups.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy of endovascular treatment for venous outflow tract obstruction after liver transplantation.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 7 patients with venous outflow tract obstruction after liver transplantation admitted to Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from November 2020 to December 2024. Among them, there were 5 males and 2 females, with the age of (22.3±8.1) years. The primary diseases included 2 cases of Budd-Chiari syndrome, 1 case of hepatic veno-occlusive disease, 1 case of portal veno-hepatic sinus vascular disease, 1 case of ornithine carbamoyltransferase deficiency, 1 case of primary biliary cirrhosis, and 1 case of autoimmune cirrhosis. Analyze the patient's clinical manifestations, obstruction of venous outflow tract, hemoglobin levels within one week before and one week after the operation, endovascular treatment conditions, and intraoperative complications such as abdominal hemorrhage and vascular injury. Ultrasound was used to measure the depth of ascites and pleural effusion. All patients were followed up immediately after the operation through phone calls or follow-up visits. The clinical symptoms, abdominal vascular ultrasound, enhanced CT and survival status of the patients were followed up.Results:All 7 patients were diagnosed with venous outflow tract obstruction by intraoperative angiography, including 1 cases of inferior vena cava obstruction, 2 cases of hepatic vein obstruction, and 4 cases of vena cava combined with hepatic vein obstruction. A total of 12 endovascular treatments were performed on 7 patients. Among them, 4 patients received balloon dilation and angioplasty once, 1 patient received balloon dilation and angioplasty twice, 1 patient underwent hepatic vein stent implantation after 2 hepatic vein balloon dilation and angioplasty, and 1 patient underwent intrahepatic portosystemic shunt via jugular vein after 2 hepatic vein balloon dilation and angioplasty. The abdominal distensionof the patients were all relieved after the operation, the ascites and pleural effusion decreased, and the edema symptoms of the lower extremities disappeared. There were no intraoperative complications. The preoperative hemoglobin of 7 patients was (113.4±34.0) g/L, and the postoperative hemoglobin was (126.6±34.8) g/L, which increased significantly compared with that before the operation, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-0.71, P=0.038). Seven patients were followed up for 6 to 24 months, with a median of 12 months. None of them had obvious symptoms including abdominal distension. Abdominal ultrasound and CT indicated that the blood flow of the transplanted liver was unobstructed, and no patient died. Conclusion:Venous outflow tract obstruction after liver transplantation can cause severe symptoms. Endovascular treatment is an effective treatment for venous outflow tract obstruction after liver transplantation.

Objective To develop and validate a risk prediction model for infiltration/extravasation in peripheral intravenous catheter therapy.Methods This retrospective study analyzed 942 patients who completed the Infiltration/Extravasation Risk Assessment Form between January and June 2023 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University(including Departments of Neurology,Endocrinology,Gastroenterology and Hepatobiliary Surgery).Patients were allocated to a derivation cohort(n=628)and validation cohort(n=314)in a 2∶1 ratio based on catheterization chronology.The derivation cohort served for model development and internal validation,while the validation cohort underwent external validation.Logistic scoring method constructed the risk model,with Hosmer-Lemeshow(HL)test assessing goodness-of-fit and ROC curve evaluating predictive performance.Twenty-one potential risk factors were assessed,including age,gender,chronic diseases,clinician experience,treatment compliance,and total infusion volume.Results Infiltration/extravasation occurred in 48 cases(5.10%incidence:31 derivation/17 validation).Among 21 factors,15 showed significant association(P<0.05),with 6 independent predictors:junior high school education or below(OR=5.2),chronic disease history(OR=3.1),poor compliance(OR=2.8),lower extremity venipuncture(OR=4.1),total infusion≥1 000 mL(OR=3.5),and hyperosmotic/corrosive medications(OR=6.7).The final prediction model was:Y=2×(low education)+1×(chronic disease)+1×(poor compliance)+1×(lower extremity puncture)+1×(volume≥1 000 mL)+2×(corrosive agents).For the derivation cohort,AUC was 0.967(95%CI:0.936～0.998),specificity 0.911,sensitivity 0.935,with good calibration(χ2=4.135,P=0.845).Validation cohort showed AUC 0.939(0.853～1.000),specificity 0.919,sensitivity 0.941,and acceptable calibration(χ2=8.998,P=0.085).Conclusion This model demonstrates excellent discriminative ability and calibration,providing an effective tool for identifying high-risk patients and guiding targeted preventive strategies.

Objective:To investigate the relevant data on radiation dose in interventional radiodiagnosis and radiology of adults in Beijing and to provide a basis for establishing relevant diagnostic reference levels (DRLs) in this region.Methods:A total of 30 medical institutions in Beijing were surveyed, covering interventional radiodiagnosis and radiology surgeries for coronary artery, structural heart diseases, permanent cardiac pacemaker implantation, electrophysiological study and radiofrequency ablation, nervous systems, abdominal systems, and the blood vessels of the lower limbs. The primary parameters investigated included the air kerma area product ( PKA) and incident air kerma ( Ka, r). The 75 th percentiles of radiation dose were considered DRLs, which were analyzed at both the overall and individual medical institution levels. Results:A total of 3 331 cases of the abovementioned radiodiagnosis and radiology surgeries were collected. The DRLs (i.e., PKA and Ka, r) of various diagnostic examinations were 37.87 Gy·cm 2 and 509.00 mGy for coronary artery, 9.34 Gy·cm 2 and 48.00 mGy for electrophysiological study and radiofrequency ablation, 218.50 Gy·cm 2 and 901.70 mGy for nervous systems, 81.00 Gy·cm 2 and 302.20 mGy for the abdominal system, and 83.37 Gy·cm 2 and 214.69 mGy for the blood vessels of the lower limbs. In contrast, the DRLs (i.e., PKA and Ka, r) for interventional radiodiagnosis and radiology were determined at 135.00 Gy·cm 2 and 1 897.58 mGy for coronary artery, 26.91 Gy·cm 2 and 172.30 mGy for structural heart diseases, 27.77 Gy·cm 2 and 87.75 mGy for permanent cardiac pacemaker implantation, 34.46 Gy·cm 2 and 247.00 mGy for electrophysiological study and radiofrequency ablation, 214.36 Gy·cm 2 and 1 282.80 mGy for the nervous system, 196.64 Gy·cm 2 and 875.71 mGy for abdominal system, and 108.25 Gy·cm 2 and 523.25 mGy for the blood vessels of the lower limbs. Conclusions:The DRLs of radiation dose in interventional radiodiagnosis and radiology in Beijing were determined through a survey and statistic analysis. These findings suggest that for certain interventional procedures, the optimized radiation protection should be enhanced.

Objective:To identify factors associated with depressive symptoms in maintenance hemodialysis patients and to examine the relationship between these symptoms and mortality.Methods:Between January and December 2019, patients who received maintenance hemodialysis in the Blood Purification Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were enrolled in a prospective cohort study. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the internationally validated patient health questionnaire-8 (PHQ-8). Sleep quality and anxiety were measured with the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and the generalized anxiety disorder-7 (GAD-7) scale, respectively. Follow-up continued until December 31, 2022, with all-cause mortality as the primary outcome. Ordinal logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors of depression severity. Cox proportional hazards models evaluated the association between depressive symptoms and mortality.Results:A total of 532 maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients completed the study. Among them, 177 (33.3%) exhibited depressive symptoms. Compared with patients without depression, those with mild or moderate-to-severe depression were older [median age: 58 (50, 66) vs. 60 (55, 65) vs. 55 (46, 64)], more likely to smoke [35.9% (51/142) vs. 40.0% (14/35) vs.26.2% (93/355)], had poorer sleep quality [PSQI: 9 (6, 13) vs. 12 (9, 17) vs. 5 (3, 9)], and higher anxiety levels [GAD-7: 1 (0, 3) vs. 3 (1, 6) vs. 0 (0, 1)], the differences among the three groups were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Ordinal logistic regression identified smoking status, history of diabetes or cardiovascular disease, hemoglobin level, PSQI score, and GAD-7 score as independent predictors of depression severity ( OR=1.60, 1.80, 1.81, 0.98, 3.67, 8.67; all P<0.05). After a median follow-up of 40 (35, 44) months, 109 patients died, including 66 (60.6%) from cardio-cerebrovascular causes and 24 (22.0%) from infections. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed significantly lower cumulative survival in the depression group compared to the non-depression group ( P<0.001). Cox regression analysis demonstrated that depressive symptoms remained independently associated with all-cause mortality after adjusting for confounders ( HR=1.06, 95% CI 1.00-1.13, P=0.048), with an even stronger association observed for patients with PHQ-8 scores≥2.9 ( HR=1.10, 95% CI 1.03-1.16, P=0.005). However, the associations between depression and cardio-cerebrovascular mortality ( P=0.111) or infection-related mortality ( P=0.509) were not statistically significant. Conclusions:Depressive symptoms are prevalent among maintenance hemodialysis patients and are independently associated with increased all-cause mortality. Smoking, comorbid diabetes or cardiovascular disease, low hemoglobin level, poor sleep quality, and anxiety are risk factors contributing to depression. Maintenance hemodialysis patients with PHQ-8 scores≥3 should be considered at heightened risk for mortality.

Objective To analyze the focus and shortcomings of provincial-level digitalization policies for Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM),and to provide references for improving relevant policies.Methods A three-dimensional analytical framework—comprising"digitalization policy coverage-economic level-TCM development level"was constructed to quantitatively analyze provincial TCM digitalization policy documents issued over the past five years.Results A total of 750 policy items were extracted.Among them,digital applications accounted for the largest proportion(58.13%),while digital governance(26.53%)and digital infrastructure(15.33%)were relatively less emphasized.Two-dimensional analysis revealed that 48.4%of provinces had both low economic levels and low digital policy coverage,while 45.2%had both low TCM development levels and low policy coverage.Multiple linear regression result showed a positive association between digitalization policies coverage and TCM development level,with no significant correlation to economic level.Conclusion Most provincial TCM digitalization policies prioritize application while neglecting governance and infrastructure.There is a need to strengthen talent development and standard system construction,The extent of policy coverage is closely related to the level of TCM development,indicating the need to enhance top-level policy design,Provincial policies vary in focus and can be categorized into three types:industry-driven,technology-driven,and demand-driven.
