Fresh-cut processing constitutes a pivotal technique in the origin processing of Chinese medicinal materials， with a long history documented in multiple materia medica. In recent years， it has garnered national policy support for its ability to prevent component loss and low processing efficiency associated with traditional drying-before-cutting methods. As of August 2025， 26 provinces and municipalities nationwide have cumulatively published 789 species for fresh-cut processing. Among these， 78 were included in the 2025 edition of the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China. However， the practice continues to face common challenges and difficulties， including ambiguous scientific understanding， fragmented standards， limited quality control approaches， and poor process stability. Based on this， this paper synthesises years of research findings to systematically elucidate the core mechanisms of fresh-cut processing. These encompass alterations to herbal tissue structure during cutting， post-processing changes in constituents， and physiological-biochemical processes such as plant stress responses and shifts in endogenous enzyme activity. It also summarises influencing factors， including inherent herbal properties， cutting timing and methods， and environmental conditions like temperature， humidity， and microbial presence. Based on this overview of fresh-cutting mechanisms， subsequent research should advance in four directions：Clarifying the scientific principles of fresh-cutting， overcoming technical bottlenecks， upgrading intelligent equipment， and establishing quality standards and evaluation systems. This study provides a theoretical foundation and scientific basis for future research on fresh-cutting in traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）， promoting its deeper practical application within the industry and contributing to the high-quality development of TCM industry and the modernization of TCM.

Patients with periodontal disease often require combined periodontal-orthodontic interventions to restore periodontal health, function, and aesthetics, ensuring both patient satisfaction and long-term stability. Managing these patients involving orthodontic tooth movement can be particularly challenging due to compromised periodontal soft and hard tissues, especially in severe cases. Therefore, close collaboration between orthodontists and periodontists for comprehensive diagnosis and sequential treatment, along with diligent patient compliance throughout the entire process, is crucial for achieving favorable treatment outcomes. Moreover, long-term orthodontic retention and periodontal follow-up are essential to sustain treatment success. This expert consensus, informed by the latest clinical research and practical experience, addresses clinical considerations for orthodontic treatment of periodontal patients, delineating indications, objectives, procedures, and principles with the aim of providing clear and practical guidance for clinical practitioners.

Objective:To investigate the changes of pathogenic bacteria distribution and immune response of urinary tract infection(UTI)after pyeloureteroplasty in children.Methods:A total of 150 children with obstructive hydronephroplasty who received pyeloureteroplasty in Qinghai Women and Children's Hospital from February 2020 to June 2023 were selected as the study objects.The postoperative urine of the children was collected,the pathogens were identified by automatic bacterial analyzer,and the patients were divided into infected group and uninfected group according to the infection status.The detection of pathogenic bacteria in children with UTI was analyzed.The clinical data of the two groups were compared,and the influencing factors of postoperative UTI were screened by Logistic regression analysis,and the prediction model was established and verified.The changes of immune response were compared between the two groups.Results:UTI occurred in 56 cases(37.33%)of 150 children who underwent pyeloureteroplasty.There were 58 strains of gram-negative bacteria,29 strains of gram-positive bacteria and 2 strains of fungi isolated.The main pathogenic bacteria was Escherichia coli.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum creatinine(SCr)and hydronephrosis volume/renal volume(HV/RV)levels increased,urinary catheter retention time,urinary bag replacement time and hospital stay were risk factors for UTI after pyeloureteroplasty in children,increased age and elevated albumin(Alb)were protective factors(P<0.05).Through Bootstrap self-sampling,the prediction model had good differentiation and accuracy.There was no significant difference in the levels of CD4+,CD8+and IgM between the two groups before surgery(P>0.05),and the levels of CD4+,CD8+and IgM were signi-ficantly improved between the two groups after surgery,and the improvement degree of the uninfected group was significantly better than that of the infected group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The pathogens of UTI in children after pyeloureteroplasty are mainly gram-nega-tive bacteria,and the immune function is increased 7 days after the operation.

Objective To explore the relationship between the expression levels of serum long chain non coding RNA Kinectin 1 antisense RNA 1(LncRNA KTN1-AS1)and retinoblastoma binding protein 4(RBBP4)with postoperative recurrence and metastasis in esophageal cancer patients.Methods From May 2018 to May 2021,119 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent surgical treatment in our hospital were included as the study group.They were separated into an occurrence group(n=51)and a non occurrence group(n=68)based on whether there was recurrence or metastasis during a 3-year follow-up.Additionally,100 patients with benign esophageal tumors treated at the same stage were selected as the control group.ELISA method was applied to detect the expression levels of serum LncRNA KTN1-AS1 and RBBP4.Multivariate Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of postoperative recurrence and metastasis in esophageal cancer patients.ROC curve was applied to analyze the predictive value of serum LncRNA KTN1-AS1 and RBBP4 for postoperative recurrence and metastasis in esophageal cancer patients.Results The expression levels of serum LncRNA KTN1-AS1 and RBBP4 in the study group were obviously higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The expression levels of serum LncRNA KTN1-AS1 and RBBP4,and the proportions of mucosal/submucosal infiltration depth,and low differentiation degree and proportion of lymph node metastasis in the occurrence group were obviously higher than those in the non occurrence group(P＜0.05).Serum LncRNA KTN1-AS1,RBBP4,proportion of lymph node metastasis,degree of differentiation,and depth of infiltration were influencing factors for postoperative recurrence and metastasis in esophageal cancer patients(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of the combined prediction of serum LncRNA KTN1 AS1 and RBBP4 for postoperative recurrence and metastasis in esophageal cancer patients was 0.912,which was better than their individual predictions(Zcombination LncRNA KTN1 AS1=2.470,Zcombination-RBBp4=1.994,P=0.014,P=0.046),the sensitivity and specificity of the combined prediction were 90.20％and 85.29％,respectively.Conclusion The expression levels of serum LncRNA KTN1-AS1 and RBBP4 in esophageal cancer patients are obviously increased,which is closely related to postoperative recurrence and metastasis.The combined detection of the two has good predictive value for postoperative recurrence and metastasis in patients.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.
