Objective To review clinical trial registration status of TCM treatment for coronary microvascular disease;To analyze the effectiveness and safety of TCM in treating coronary microvascular disease.Methods The clinical trials of TCM in the treatment of coronary artery microvascular disease included in the Chinese Clinical Trials Registry and the US Clinical Trials Registry from the establishment of the database to January 31,2024 were retrieved,and the general characteristics(time,region,funding source),design type,intervention regimen and outcome indicators of the included clinical trials were extracted and analyzed using Excel 2019 software.Results A total of 17 clinical trials were included,including 16 pre-registrations.The registered units were distributed in 5 provinces across the country,involving 17 registration institutions.The two regions with the most distribution were Shanghai(6 studies,35.29%)and Beijing(5 studies,29.41%).The types of studies were mainly interventional studies,and most of the study designs were randomized parallel controlled studies(16 studies,94.12%).A total of 8 interventions were reported,including Chinese patent medicine,TCM decoction,TCM intravenous preparation,and acupuncture and moxibustion.A total of 143 outcome indicators were designed,including 10 first-level indicators,including coronary artery microcirculation,clinical efficacy,symptoms and signs,TCM syndromes,quality of life,exercise tolerance,cardiac function,physical and chemical testing,safety,and pharmacoeconomic evaluation.Conclusion The registration of clinical trials by TCM in the treatment of coronary microvascular diseases has been gradually receiving attention from researchers,but the overall number is still small.At present,the study needs to be optimized in terms of study design and index selection.

Objective To evaluate the prognosis of infants with common Hirschsprung's disease who undergo laparoscopic-assisted Soave procedure below 6 months of age,and to explore its feasibility.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 82 cases of common Hirschsprung's disease admitted to our department from January 2018 to August 2022.The patients were divided into two groups based on their age at the time of surgery:Young surgical age group(＜6 months,50 cases)and Old surgical age group(≥ 6 months,32 cases).All patients underwent the treatment of laparoscopic-assisted Soave procedure.The surgical time,length of hospital stay,postoperative complications,and anal function were compared between the two groups.Results There were no significant differences between young surgical age group and old surgical age group in terms of surgical time[(145.04±11.21)min vs.(149.25±12.18)min,P=0.20],length of hospital stay[(13.56+0.93)d vs.(13.91±0.99)d,P=0.55],postoperative complications[22.00％(11/50)vs.28.13％(9/32),P=0.53],and Rintala score for anal function[(18.58±1.44)vs.(17.22±1.64),P=0.06].The main postoperative complications,including enterocolitis[10.00％(5/50)vs.12.50％(4/32),P=0.72],fecal/anal incontinence[6.00％(3/50)vs.6.25％(2/32),P=0.96],and constipation[4.00％(2/50)and 6.25％(2/32),P=0.65],showed no significant differences between the two groups(all P＞0.05).However,there was a statistically significant difference in terms of bleeding volume[(7.86±2.02)ml vs.(9.13±2.17)ml,P＜0.05].No deaths occurred in this study.Conclusion Laparoscopic-assisted Soave procedure is safe and effective for infants below 6 months of age with common congenital Hirschsprung's disease.It can achieve satisfactory anal function and reduce the incidence of adverse events during the waiting period for surgery.

Objective To understand the current status of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)systematic reviews/Meta-analysis over the past 10 years.Methods Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews,PubMed,Web of Knowledge,CNKI,SinoMed,WanFang Data,VIP databases,as well as the Cochrane Register and PROSPERO registration platform were searched to collect TCM-related systematic reviews/Meta-analysis published between January 2015 and December 2024.Literature was screened,and standardization of institutions,countries,and journals was performed.Data cleaning was conducted,and trends in publication years,high-frequency diseases,journals,institutions,and highly cited papers were analyzed.Results A total of 11,174 papers were included,involving approximately 56,656 authors from 1,422 institutions across 44 countries,covering 1,300 journals and 1,070 diseases.The top five institutions in terms of publications were Beijing University of Chinese Medicine(954 papers),Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine(928 papers),China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences(537 papers),Tianjin University of Chinese Medicine(460 papers),and Chengdu University of Chinese Medicine(393 papers).Foreign institutions with the highest publication volumes were concentrated in South Korea,Iran,and Australia.The most frequently published Chinese journal was Zhongyi Clinical Research with 332 papers,while the most published English journal was Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine with 311 papers.There were 282 single-author papers involving 271 authors,and the most cited paper was referenced 323 times,The three most frequently studied diseases were diabetes(267 papers,2.39％),angina pectoris(214 papers,1.92％),and osteoarthritis(210 papers,1.88％).Non-pharmacological interventions such as acupuncture(1,265 papers,11.32％),auricular therapy(101 papers,0.90％),and Tai Chi(98 papers,0.88％)were most frequently reported.In pharmacological interventions,studies on Tripterygium wilfordii tablets(76 papers,0.68％)and Danhong injection(54 papers,0.48％)were more common.Conclusion The systematic reviews/Meta-analysis method is widely used in the field of TCM,and the field continues to grow.Active academic teams,institutions,and journals have emerged.Over the past decade,there has been a considerable body of evidence in Chinese systematic reviews on TCM for chronic diseases such as diabetes,angina pectoris,and osteoarthritis.In English-language studies,non-pharmacological therapies like acupuncture have been more widely reported,and some high-impact studies have emerged.However,challenges remain,such as issues with research transparency and methodological standardization.Future efforts should focus on establishing transparent systems and quality control mechanisms to further enhance the reliability,accuracy,and dissemination of TCM evidence-based research.

During cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), the depth of compression is a critical factor affecting the effectiveness of the rescue and the patient's prognosis. However, it is difficult to master the correct compression depth in manual CPR. If the compression depth is too deep, it may cause rib fractures, while insufficient compression depth may fail to establish effective circulation. Although most existing manual CPR compression depth control devices can indicate the depth but lack direct limiting functions. Against this background, led by a team of faculty and students from the Department of Emergency and Rescue Medicine at Xuzhou Medical University, on the basis of the development of a portable CPR protection device (National Invention Patent of China, patent number: ZL 2021 1 0309001.4), the device's compression depth limiting performance was further expanded, and then a new type of CPR compression depth limiting device suitable for different body types was developed. This device has applied for a National Invention Patent of China (patent application number: ZL 2023 1 0644910.2) and has been granted a National Utility Model Patent of China (patent number: ZL 2023 2 1384853.0). The device consists of a horizontal support beam, a vertical sliding beam, a guide block, a rotating shaft, a rotating arm, a limit slider and a limit pin. The horizontal support beams of the two limit devices are fixed horizontally to the horizontal side beams of the portable CPR protection device by bolts, and the connecting arms at the bottom of the vertical sliding beams are fixedly connected with the pressing mechanism, so that precise control of the pressing depth in CPR operation can be realized according to the patient's body size by the mechanical linkage of the vertical sliding beams and the rotating arms, as well as by the blocking and limiting effect of the rotating arms and the guiding blocks on the limiting sliders. It can prevent the occurrence of complications such as chest wall fractures, and thereby increase the success rate of manual CPR, and its structure is simple, low-cost, and suitable for social popularization.
