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.

Objective To analyze the efficacy, safety, and learning curve of the three-lobe holmium laser enucleation of the prostate(HoLEP)in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH)in a county-level hospital.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 65 BPH patients who underwent the three-lobe HoLEP performed by a single surgeon at the Department of Urology, Yining County People's Hospital, during Dec.2023 and Jun.2024.The enucleation efficiency was calculated by dividing the weight of the enucleated prostatic tissue by the enucleation time.A case scatter diagram of enucleation efficiency was plotted according to the chronological order of the operations, and the learning curve was analyzed after fitting.Based on the inflection points of the learning curve, the learning process was divided into the initial learning, mastery, and proficiency phases.The basic clinical data, perioperative indicators, postoperative complications, and follow-up indicators were compared among the different learning phases.Results All 65 procedures were successfully completed.Marked by the enucleation efficiency reaching a plateau, cases 1-20 were defined as the initial learning phase, cases 21-40 as the mastery phase, and cases 41 onwards as the proficiency phase.The prostate volume in the proficiency phase was significantly larger than that in the initial learning and mastery phases(both P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in other baseline characteristics among the three groups(all P＞0.05).The operation time [(105.50±19.12)min vs.(85.25±26.92)min vs.(69.00±23.58)min] and enucleation time [(76.90±14.19)min vs.(63.70±22.24)min vs.(48.80±20.48)min] showed a decreasing trend across the three groups(all P＜0.05).The enucleation efficiency in both the mastery and proficiency phases was significantly higher than that in the initial learning phase [(1.16±0.44)g/min vs.(0.85 ±0.25)g/min, P＜0.05;(1.36±0.49)g/min vs.(0.85±0.25)g/min, P＜0.05].The enucleation efficiency in the proficiency phase was slightly higher than that in the mastery phase, but the difference was not statistically significant(P= 0.389).There was no significant difference in the incidence of perioperative complications among the three groups(all P＞0.05).At the 6-month follow-up, the international prostate symptom score(IPSS), post-void residual(PVR), and maximum urinary flow(Qmax)were significantly improved compared to preoperative values in all three groups(all P＜0.05);however, no significant differences were observed among the three groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion The three-lobe HoLEP for the treatment of BPH is safe and effective in a county-level hospital setting.Surgeons with some experience in endoscopic surgery can preliminarily master this technique after a learning period of approximately 20 procedures.

Objective: To analyze the implementation status of the “Three-Exemptions” policy for voluntary blood donation in China by taking Shandong Province as a case study, explore the sociodemographic characteristics of policy beneficiaries and the distribution differences in blood donation frequencies, so as to provide practical references for improving the honor incentive system of voluntary blood donation and stabilizing the blood donation team. Methods: Excel was used to sort out and summarize the policy documents from 31 provincial-level administrative regions of China (excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan), and its implementation models, temporal characteristics and implementation basis were analyzed. Using 238 193 policy beneficiaries in Shandong Province as the research objects, Stata was adopted for descriptive statistical analysis of sociodemographic characteristics including gender, age, educational background and occupation. The Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were performed to compare the distribution differences of blood donation frequencies among populations with different characteristics. Results: The “Three Exemption” policy has been implemented in 29 provinces nationwide, forming five differentiated implementation models. Specifically, 45.16% of the regions adopted province-wide unified implementation, 32.26% adopted partial prefecture-level city implementation, 12.90% adopted partial clause implementation, 3.23% adopted encouraging implementation, and 6.45% had not implemented the policy. The period from 2023 to 2026 witnessed the concentrated promotion of the policy. In Shandong Province, the beneficiaries were mainly males (82.08%), middle-aged individuals aged 40-60 years (71.78%), groups with junior and senior high school education (56.57%), and staff employees (30.60%). The distribution of blood donation frequencies showed that nearly 60% (56.95%) of the beneficiaries had donated blood 20 to 29 times. Statistically significant differences in donation frequency distributions were observed across genders, age groups, educational backgrounds, and occupations (all P<0.05). Further analysis revealed that the proportion of males with 40 or more blood donations was higher than that of females (24.32% vs 15.60%), while females had a higher proportion of 20-29 blood donations than males (65.98% vs 54.99%). With the increase of age, the proportion of those with 20-29 blood donations gradually decreased, whereas the proportion of those with≥40 blood donations gradually increased. Conclusion: The coverage of the “Three Exemptions” policy for voluntary blood donation in China continues to expand. However, there is still room for optimization in terms of policy implementation standards, population structure adaptation and incentive gradient design. Future efforts should strengthen national top-level design to balance regional development gaps. Moreover, hierarchical and targeted incentive and publicity strategies combined with population structural characteristics should be implemented to enhance public enthusiasm for voluntary blood donation.

psychiatric disorders （PD） and neurological disorders （ND） are currently major public health issues. The "four jiao （焦） and eight systems" theory categorizes them respectively into "spirit-system diseases" and "marrow-system diseases"， collectively attributing to "top jiao diseases". In the prevention and treatment of these diseases， deficiencies still exist in treating only the physical form while neglecting the spirit， or treating only the spirit while neglecting the physical form， lacking theoretical basis that integrates both form and spirit. Accordingly， the theory of spirit collaterals is proposed， aiming to expand the scope of collateral disease theory based on the concept of the unity of form and spirit， thereby providing a reference for the differentiation and treatment of top jiao diseases. By clarifying the relationships between concepts such as spirit， collaterals， marrow， brain spirit， the five spirit organs， brain orifices， clear orifices and spirit collaterals， and combining modern medical research on neurovascular units and neurovascular bundles， the connotations of spirit collaterals are elucidated from the perspectives of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） and western medicine. It is also demonstrated that spirit collaterals takes top jiao as its center， spreads throughout the body， and possesses the attributes of qi collaterals， blood collaterals， and fluid collaterals， achieving the unity of physical structure and functional regulation. Based on the spirit collaterals theory， the core pathogenesis of top jiao diseases is proposed as collateral stasis and failure of spirit mechanism， with an evolutionary pattern of "collateral stagnation-collateral stasis-collateral block". In the clinical differentiation and treatment of top jiao diseases， unblocking and regulating the spirit collaterals is taken as the core therapeutic method. Basic formulas are formulated respectively for spirit-system diseases and marrow-system diseases， and a modification strategy is formed that takes into account the three collaterals， regulates qi and treats the spirit， and performs precise treatment according to the disease location.

The pathogenesis of recurrent acute exacerbations of bronchiectasis is considered to be "yang floating and yin weakness". Yin weakness refers to the depletion of the water and fire of true yin in the lower jiao （焦）， which is the root of the disease. Yang floating refers to the ministerial fire floating upward and scorching the lung metal due to the failure of true yin to nourish and constrain yang， which is the manifestation of acute exacerbations. Yin weakness and yang floating interact with each other， forming a vicious cycle of "yin depletion leading to fire floating， and floating fire in turn injuring yin"， which leads to recurrent， prolonged， and refractory acute exacerbations of bronchiectasis. Based on the pathogenesis of yang floating and yin weakness， therapeutic formulas are proposed. Yinhuo Decoction （引火汤） can be used to nourish true yin and anchor floating fire， while a combination of Qianyang Pill （潜阳丹） and Fengsui Pill （封髓丹） is applied to warm the kidneys， subdue yang， and secure true fire， and Quanzhen Yiqi Decoction （全真一气汤） is utilized to drastically supplement the primal origin and rescue both yin and yang simultaneously.

Objective Using cockroach surveillance data in Nanjing from 2017 to 2024, we have descriptively analyzed population characteristics and changes in insecticide resistance among Blattella germanica, and have established a seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) model to predict monthly population densities in Nanjing spanning the year 2025. Methods B. germanica density and infestation rate were monitored using the sticky trap method, and insecticide resistance was assessed using the residual contact method. Our ARIMA model was applied to fit and estimate cockroach density fluctuations over time. Results From 2017 to 2024, B. germanica accounted for 94.90% of all cockroach specimens captured in Nanjing, with an average density of 0.37 cockroaches per trap and an average infestation rate of 5.56%. Significant differences in density and infestation rate were observed among different habitats (P＜0.001). Significant downward annual trends in both density and infestation rate were found (P＜0.05). ARIMA was found to be the optimal model for fitting the density data from 2017 to 2024 (0, 1, 1) × (0, 1, 1)1 2. Conclusions From 2017 to 2024, B. germanica was overwhelmingly the dominant cockroach species in Nanjing, with both its density and infestation rate declining annually. A positive correlation was observed between the amount and proportion of insecticide use and the development of insecticide resistance (P＜0.05). The established model demonstrated good performance in predicting monthly B. germanica densities in Nanjing throughout 2025, providing a valuable reference for future surveillance and control efforts.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Zhuanggu Zhitong Capsules on JNK signaling molecules and their phosphorylated proteins in postmenopausal osteoporosis model female mice.Methods:The rats were divided into sham-operation group, blank group, model group, positive drug group, and Zhuanggu Zhitong Capsules group according to the random number table method, with 10 rats in each group.

The locations of employment units and their source provinces of different cases were analyzed. Counting data were described by component ratio (%) and compared by Pearson χ2 test. Results:From 2006 to 2023, 9763 cases of newly diagnosed occupational diseases among workers from other provinces in Guangdong Province were reported, accounting for 78.82% (9763/12387) of the total number of occupational diseases in the province. The cases of occupational diseases were mainly concentrated in the Pearl River Delta region (94.93%, 9268/9763) and the manufacturing industry (86.97%, 8491/9763), and the domestic enterprises accounted for 57.35% (5593/9753). Newly diagnosed occupational disease cases were mainly from province A in Central China (2767 cases, 28.34%), province A in Southwest China (2323 cases, 23.79%) and a province in South China (1070 cases, 10.96%) .Conclusion:The proportion of newly diagnosed occupational diseases among workers from other provinces in Guangdong Province is relatively high, and the cases are concentrated in the regions, industries and source provinces.

Based on the target recognition ability of split aptamer and intelligent analytical capability of molecular logic gate,in this work,two split aptamers were integrated into"AND"logic gate to construct a novel ortho-nucleic acid fluorescence sensor for simultaneous detection of thrombin and myoglobin.When there was one target,the response of the signal was only a single fluorescence output signal,which was used as an evaluation standard for early low-risk judgment.When two targets coexisted,the split aptamer bound to the target to form a ternary complex and led to the head and tail ortho-nucleic acid effect respectively,and triggered the G4 chain to enhance the fluorescence signal of thioflavin T and the fluorescence signal quenching of Cyanine 3,which could be used as an evaluation criterion for early high-risk judgement.Under the optimal conditions,the linear range for detection of thrombin was 3-200 nmol/L,with a correlation coefficient of 0.9931 and a detection limit of 0.97 nmol/L,and the linear range for detection of myoglobin was 6-400 nmol/L,with a correlation coefficient of 0.9933,and a detection limit of 2.14 nmol/L.The method was applied to simultaneous determination of thrombin and myoglobin in clinical serum samples,and the recoveries were 85.4%-118.3%and 85.8%-119.9%,respectively,with relative standard deviations of less than 6.5%.Compared with the standard method,the relative error range was from-8.8%to 5.6%.In addition,the logical diagnosis results of 4 serum samples were high-risk of acute myocardial infarction in 2 cases and low-risk in 2 cases.The ″AND″ logic gate ortho-nucleic acid fluorescence sensing method showed many advantages such as high selectivity,rapidity,accuracy and simultaneous detection,which offered important reference for early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction,and also provided a general detection design strategy and platform for simultaneous detection of biomarkers.
