The theory of constitution in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） has emerged as a new discipline in recent years. Constitution plays a vital role in the onset，progression，transformation，and prognosis of diseases. At present，some clinical scholars have adopted a novel diagnostic and treatment model of "constitution differentiation-disease identification-syndrome differentiation"，in which constitution is regarded as a core element throughout the diagnostic and therapeutic process. Constitution is closely associated with etiology，onset，pathogenesis，syndrome differentiation，and treatment. Against this background，the construction of animal models based on constitution holds far-reaching significance for advancing clinical research. This paper focuses on the construction and evaluation of rodent models with Qi-deficiency constitution，aiming to explore how to further induce Qi-deficiency syndromes and related disease states on the basis of Qi-deficiency constitution models，thereby developing an integrated animal model that embodies the trinity of "constitution-disease-syndrome". The establishment of this model not only provides a solid experimental foundation for the development of new therapies and drugs in TCM targeting specific constitutions，diseases，and syndromes，but also greatly promotes the modernization and scientific advancement of TCM theory. By comprehensively applying multidisciplinary technologies and methods，the study evaluates the model's validity，reliability，and practicality，with the aim of opening new avenues for future research in TCM and promoting the development of the field.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory respiratory disease involving multiple cells and cellular components， characterized by recurrent episodes of wheezing， shortness of breath， chest tightness， and coughing， significantly impacting patients' quality of life. The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B（PI3K/Akt） signaling pathway， as a crucial hub in intracellular signaling， is widely involved in the regulation of cell growth， proliferation， survival， metabolism， and a series of pathophysiological processes. Its regulatory role in the pathological progression of asthma is particularly significant， specifically in promoting airway inflammation， mediating epithelial mesenchymal transition， accelerating airway remodeling， regulating cell autophagy， inducing mucus hypersecretion， and influencing immune response balance. This study analyzed potential molecular targets of the PI3K/Akt pathway， including activators such as cysteine proteinase inhibitor 1（CST1）， found in inflammatory zone 1（FIZZ1） and free fatty acid receptor 1（FFAR1）， and inhibitors such as human β-defensin-3（hBD-3）， disintegrins， metalloproteinase 33（ADAM33） and interleukin-27（IL-27）， and initially revealed the potential molecular mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） in asthma intervention. Based on this， the authors systematically summarized the efficacy and specific mechanisms of TCM monomers， compounds， and external treatments for asthma by regulating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway through literature review and analysis， aiming at establishing a robust foundation for the wide application and advanced development of TCM in asthma treatment， offering innovative insights for clinical research and drug development of asthma.

Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)has been used for the control and prevention of infectious diseases for thousands of years.Due to its characteristics of multiple components and multiple targets,it shows promising therapeutic prospects in the field of anti-infection.Here,we provide a detailed introduction to the current application of various omics technologies,such as metabolomics,proteomics,genomics,and transcriptomics in the study of TCM's anti-infective properties.The application of omics technologies can help explore the active components and their targets in TCM that contribute to its anti-infective effects;elucidate the biosynthetic pathways of active components,aiding in the discovery of new active ingredients;and investigate the mechanisms by which TCM affects pathogenic microorganisms,as well as interpret the mechanisms of TCM's synergy with antibiotics.As more research findings are produced and validated,the role of TCM in addressing the global challenge of antimicrobial resistance will become increasingly prominent through the integration of multi-omics and multidisciplinary research methods in the future.

Objective:To investigate the mediating effect of psychological stress between sleep disorder and fatigue in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) .Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 305 ACS patients with PCI from August to September 2024 in China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University. General Information Questionnaire, Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory-20 (MFI-20), Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were used to survey the patients at discharge, and one month after discharge.Results:The MFI-20, SCL-90, and PSQI scores at discharge of 305 patients with PCI for ACS were (59.27±18.33), (141.09±49.08), and (10.72±4.95), respectively. The MFI-20, SCL-90, and PSQI scores at one month after discharge were (55.58±19.28), (134.08±44.29), and (9.17±5.20), respectively. Mediating effect analysis showed that at discharge, the direct effect of sleep disorder on fatigue was 0.403, the mediating effect was 0.216, and the total effect was 0.619, with the mediating effect accounting for 34.89% of the total effect. One month after discharge, the direct effect of sleep disorder on fatigue was 0.385, the mediating effect was 0.355, and the total effect was 0.740, with the mediating effect accounting for 47.97% of the total effect.Conclusions:Psychological stress plays a mediating role between sleep disorder and fatigue at different time points in ACS patients undergoing PCI. Clinical attention should be paid to sleep disorders and psychological stress of ACS patients undergoing PCI, so as to improve their fatigue.

To systematically review randomized controlled trials （RCTs） of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） intervention in ulcerative colitis （UC）， and analyze the characteristics of these studies and their outcome indicators， thereby providing references for the design of future RCTs of TCM intervention in UC and offering evidence supporting the clinical application of TCM in UC. A computerized search was conducted in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， Wanfang Data， VIP， SinoMed， PubMed， Cochrane Library， EMbase， and Web of Science databases for RCTs of TCM intervention in UC published from January 2021 to August 2024. The risk of bias was assessed， and outcome indicators were qualitatively analyzed. A total of 555 RCTs were included， with a sample size of 44 853 participants. The largest sample size was 218 cases， and the smallest was 28 cases， with most studies focusing on 60-100 participants. Of the 386 RCTs that explicitly reported TCM syndrome types， the top three were large intestine dampness-heat syndrome （31.05%）， spleen and kidney yang deficiency syndrome （12.47%）， and spleen deficiency with dampness syndrome （9.17%）. The interventions， ranked by frequency of use， included internal Chinese medicine compounds/preparations （64.5%）， Chinese medicine compounds/preparations with retained enema （18.2%）， internal Chinese medicine compounds/preparations + external TCM treatment （5.95%）， and external TCM treatment alone （4.86%）. The treatment duration was mainly 4-8 weeks （64.86%）， with 61 studies （10.99%） reporting follow-up time. A total of 157 outcome indicators were used， with a frequency of 3 460 occurrences， classified into six domains： TCM syndromes and symptoms （346 occurrences， 10%）， symptoms/signs （541 occurrences， 15.64%）， physical and chemical examinations （2 119 occurrences， 61.24%）， quality of life （107 occurrences， 3.09%）， long-term prognosis （61 occurrences， 1.76%）， and safety events （284 occurrences， 8.21%）. The analysis reveals several limitations in the outcome indicators of TCM intervention in UC， including the lack of a basis for sample size calculation， non-standardized TCM syndrome classification， absence of trial design and registration， inadequate blinding and allocation concealment， adherence issues with interventions， imbalanced selection of surrogate and endpoint indicators， inconsistency in the timing of outcome measurements， design issues that require standardization， and ethical and safety concerns. It is recommended that future studies actively construct a set of core indicators for UC that include standardized TCM syndrome classification， clear efficacy evaluation indicators， key endpoint indicators， and reasonable measurement time points. Long-term prognostic impacts， comprehensive assessments of patients' quality of life， and consideration of economic benefits should be emphasized， providing a basis for the clinical practice of TCM in the treatment of UC.

Endothelial dysfunction(ED)is a crucial pathological feature and a key initiating factor in diabetic angiopathy.A major pathway contributing to ED is the reduction of nitric oxide(NO)production.NO is synthesized by endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS)using L-arginine as a substrate.However,arginase(Arg)can compete with eNOS for this substrate.Arg has subtype 1 and 2.In diabetes mellitus(DM),the abnormal increase in Arg1 can lead to excessive consumption of the substrate in the vascular endothelium,which causes a decrease in NO levels,leading to diabetes-induced vascular ED.This article reviews the research progress of arginase 1 in diabetes-induced vascular ED.
